Jeff picked up his clothes at her back, his hands slightly touching her soft body.
He kept his calm; he couldn't start acting like a man without self control, given they had just a moment and that was over now. He proceeded to put on his clothes while Emily stared at him, unable to take her eyes off the way he moved. His eyes caught hers and she cleared her throat turning to face her dressing mirror. Jeff smiled, he always had that effect on ladies when he has no shirt on. Emily seemed different. Last night she had been a seductress, in control and letting him take the reins only when she wanted. Now, she was this cautious, gorgeous lady who seemed to pay attention to detail. He had to leave now, he hoped to see her again but she wasn't being very friendly and from her body language he knew she wanted this "stranger" out of her home. He checked his watch and sent a message to Walter asking to be picked up immediately. Emily stood still recalling the incident last night. She had never expected that from Sandy; she was her best friend, and she knew how much she loved Ben. “Ben" Her eyes filled with tears at the thought of him. She felt a sudden wave of sadness and anger. “I'd soon be on my way, my driver would be here soon" Jeff's voice interrupted her thoughts. Here he was, a stranger who had caressed and explored every bit of her body, now wanting to leave like last night was nothing. “Was she the only one with a heart these days?" She wondered. “I would love- " Jeff continued intending to exchange contacts so they could keep in touch and plan a proper date. He wanted to get to know her better and understand what had bothered her so much that she had held on to him last night, visibly distraught, but he had to leave now so he could go see his parents later on. “Leave now" Emily interrupted. “Don't get me wrong, I mean to-" Jeff replied. “Leave this minute, we had a moment and what happened did. I have no intention of being anything more" Emily said, her tone slightly higher than usual. Jeff could see she was upset and just then, his phone buzzed, Walter had arrived. He knew there was nothing more he could say that would change her mind. She walked towards the door and gestured he leave the room. He quietly walked out of the room, and down the stairs with Emily following closely, she regretted putting herself in a mess with the same gender and wanted nothing more than to be alone at that moment. Cotton purred as Jeff came into the living room, he gave the cat a slight pat and turned to face Emily. “Could you at least give me a chance to explain? “You probably misunderstand me" he said. “There's nothing to understand. I need my space right now, and we had a fling" Emily said out right. Jeff wondered what he had said or done to offend her, she was staring at him with mixed emotions, troubled, and he wanted to be there for her but she wouldn't hear him out. “Or could it be she was in a relationship-or worse married, she had called out a name last night: Ben. maybe she wants me out to avoid drama," he thought, and with that, he walked towards the door. “I truly hope you don't misunderstand what we had, have a good day" he said, then walked out the door."Need a refill?" Emily looked up from her almost empty glass and saw the voice belonged the friendly bartender. She smiled and nodded her head in approval watching as he refilled her cup. "Hey Ems" Emily turned and noticed her friend Sandy who had a big smile plastered on her face walking towards her. Sandy has always been the life of the party and was a very attractive young lady with her blue eyes and the most beautiful smile ever, little wonder while she never seems to run out of suitors. They met when Emily had just moved to New York and they've been best of friends ever since. “You've got to get up from here and have a bit of fun, meet people, interact you know" Sandy said with a subtle eye roll while still maintaining her smile. She then pulled the next stool and sat directly facing Emily and changed her countenance to be more serious and said "Em's you need to forget about Ben, he's a jerk for breaking up with you that way, life's just one and if it's meant to be he
Emily fought the tears back as she emptied the bitter clear liquid in her glass down her throat. “Isn't that too much to be taken in all at once?" A clear voice asked. "Keep your opinion to yourself, Ben!" Emily responded while keeping a straight face , not once turning to face "him". “Ben? Who's that?" The voice asked and its owner proceeded to sit on the chair closest to Emily. “Emily raised her head to look at her new companion and not surprisingly she couldn't focus on the person in front of her, she knew the drink had started taking full effect and she wasn't in the right state of mind to start a conversation with a stranger. “Not interested" she replied. “Not interested in?" The stranger asked again. “Listen here Mr whatever, I'm most certainly not in the mood for small petty talk, so run along and go find someone else to have those talks with cause I promise you I'm not the ONE" Emily said in a clear tone. “Mr whatever" had a slight frown on his face as Emily cou
Em’s, it’s not what you think," Sandy said in a quivering voice. Emily stared at her with eyes so cold and empty that Sandy could have sworn they belonged to someone she had never met before; the person before her wasn't Emily anymore-she was a stranger. “I hope you're happy" Emily said and quickly disappeared into the exhilarated crowd. Sandy stood in shock for a moment, visibly stunned. "Hey, get yourself together," Ben's said as he grabbed her arms.Ben's voice trailed off as Sandy stared into space, lost in her thoughts about how it all began. She had met Ben at a friend's birthday dinner, where she had spilled some wine on her white gown. He had offered her his suit jacket, and they instantly connected, engaging in a conversation that flowed effortlessly. She remembered being so tired that she mumbled a thank you and went straight to bed. Ben, hoping to see her again, had left but didn't follow up, thinking it would be strange to show up without her contact information
"Easy there" he said while slowly guiding her up the stairs into her apartment. They got to her apartment and he helped her to get seated and asked "Do you have a first aid kit?". In the bathroom cupboard" she replied. Ben gestured at the direction of the bathroom and she gave a nod of approval. He walked to the bathroom and grabbed a first aid kit from the cupboard and headed back to Sandy. “Is that your usual route to jog?" He asked. "Uhum" Sandy grunted and winced in paid as he applied first aid. “Almost done here, you're lucky I decided to go jogging there today. I usually take the other route by the river" He said. Sandy watched him as he cleaned her cut and placed a bandage. The handsome stranger that she thought she dreamt and was a figment of her imagination was right here with her. “All done" He said with a smile. “Thank you" she replied. They had coffee and decided to have a conversation. “So you seeing anyone currently?" Ben asked. “No I'm single, you?" She r
Emily pushed through the crowd blindly, her heart beating so loud she could have sworn she heard it above the music blasting from the speakers. She pushed through the crowd, and out the doors into the busy streets.The lights and noise of the streets all seemed like a fever dream, she pinched herself in an effort to know if all this wasn't a dream. She stood for a moment, her mind racing with so many thoughts. And she stepped towards the busy road. It all happened in a split second, her walking towards the cars moving at a high speed, the loud horns from the drivers and a firm grip on her arm pulling her back. Someone pulled her in away from the busy road and she couldn't resist, instead she held onto the stranger and rested her head on his chest, holding in tears that were already filled in her eyes. “Hey, you good?" A strong masculine voice asked. She nodded while still holding on to him, in her head, this was a moment of weakness. She needed someone to comfort her or act
"My name is Jeff, what's yours?" He asked. "Emily, you can call me Em's, thanks for saving me” she replied still not turning to look at him. Don't mention, be careful next time though" he replied and she kept mute. My driver would be here any minute now" he continued. Just then, a Cadillac pulled up and a middle aged well uniformed man came down and said "Good evening, Mr Jeff. Good evening, ma'm " he said to Emily who was staring at the car before her. Emily knew Jeff could be rich if he could afford to own such a luxury car, not like she cared what car he drove but she was surprised. Jeff helped her in and signaled to Walter to pay them no attention,he then helped Emily into the backseat and proceeded to get in himself. “You good?" He asked. She nodded and gave a smile. "Could you share your location ma'm?" Walter asked?". “1235, Crimson street" She replied. Walter nodded and they drove off to her home. In the car, Jeff was resisting the urge to stare at Emily's face and t
Emily couldn't find her key in her purse, she tried to remember where she had placed it to no avail, then she proceeded to check for her spare key under the flower vase at the balcony. “Found it" she said and brought out a bunch of keys and placed one in the key lock. Her door got opened and Jeff followed behind, gently shutting the door after him. “Hey Cotton" Emily bent to give her chubby cat belly rubs, Cotton purred and rubbed her face in Emily's legs. Cotton stared at Jeff for a minute and went close for a pat, which he gladly obliged. “You've a lovely cat" He said. “Thank you" Emily said in a low tone. Jeff wondered if she was upset about what had happened in the car and thought it smart to take his leave now. “Hey, seems you settled in , I would take my leave now" Jeff said and on getting no response from Emily who just stood at the kitchen counter staring at him. Taking that as his cue, he turned to leave. The lights went off immediately and Jeff turned back to see what
Yess" she replied clenching her teeth. He kissed her again, his hands stroking her body in soft waves. Emily moaned, her arms wrapped around him with fingers deep in his back ,then he slowly inserted a finger in her. Emily let out a cry of pleasure much to Jeff's excitement as he worked her spot down there. Ben had never touched her like this, in fact no man had ever touched her like this. Who was this man? Jeff could feel her body quivering to his every touch, he was hard and yearning to be deep in her. A stranger she was but she had his heart and body this night, he inserted another finger, his fingers exploring her deeply and Emily thought she could explode from pleasure, her legs shaking, the jerks in between each movement. “Ben" she groaned in a crackly voice, Jeff couldn't hear her properly at first. Jeff knew even though she had given him consent, he still couldn't see this to the end. One, he had no protection on him. Two, she seemed tipsy, he knew better than to see

He leaned in to kiss her, his hands around her neck. She smiled in her sleep and shut her eyes expecting a kiss. There was a light snore . Who's snoring? The sound distracted her from her peaceful dream and she slowly opened her eyes. Lying naked, head on a strangers chest and her body half rested on his. It took a second for Emily to realize what was going on. She jumped up in fright, startling Jeff, who was already deep in sleep. Jeff was a deep sleeper but surprisingly got up immediately after her sudden reaction. He checked his watch, it was 4:30am. He had thought she would sleep a bit longer since she was exhausted and he had planned to been on his way at about an hour from now. He raised his eyes, while sitting half way and stared at the naked woman in front of him. She didn't seem frightened, just confused trying to recall the events that led to him being in her bed. “Hey, you good?" He asked, visibly worried, he hoped she remembered all that had happened. “Who the hell
