Chapter five

[Christmas]

The shop is already closed but Duke isn't yet coming back. I am here outside, standing with my bike together his laundry basket. It's already 10:00 p.m. and I'm already thinking he forgot to get his clothes or he is on his way? I don't know which of the two but I'm still going to wait him till 11:00. I'm already tired and I want to take a rest.

"Oh, Christmas, why are you still here?" asked of the old lady who always clean her clothes here in the laundry shop. She owns a Flower Shop that is two blocks away from here and we are living in the same apartment. Our room is just facing each other in the third floor. She told me to call her granny since I am like a granddaughter to her. Granny doesn't have her family here in Florida because they are all living in California. 

"I am waiting someone to get this laundry basket, Granny then I'm going home later," I answered to her question.

She nodded. "I see. I'm going home now at my apartment. You take care of yourself here. It's already late." She reminded.

"You take care as well, Granny," I said and wave at her as she passes me, heading to the apartment that is only nearby. 

I heaved a sigh and wait again for him to get his clean clothes. Actually, I can just go with granny heading to the apartment and give this to him tomorrow. I'm sure he will go back here for this but there something in me that I want to see him before I go to my bed tonight. That's why I'm going to wait for him.

Beep!

As I heard a car's horn at my right side, I automatically look to it. It is now parked and the door from the driver seat open. My eyes sparkled as I saw Mr. Right, walking tipsy towards me? Eh? He seems like going to knock down anytime the way he walks. He still drives even he was drunk? But what makes him like this? What the hell you care Christmas? You are just going to give the laundry basket then leave. You are not the girlfriend to feel worried at him.

"Hello, beautiful," he said, pertaining at me, "Hehe. Why is the shop closed? Have you seen the laundry girl? Hehe. I'm going now to take my clothes," he asked.

I grip my lower lip because he feels strange to me than the first time I saw him earlier. "I-I am the laundry girl." I answered.

"Oh? Hehe. Is it you? I'm sorry, I didn't recognize your face. Is-is that my basket?" He is looking at his basket that is in my left side.

I grab it and gave to him. "Yeah. Your clothes are already cleaned."

"T-thank you. How muc-"

"Uhm. No just keep the payment for the mean time," I said out of nowhere that made his forehead knotted, "You can pay for it in your next laundry. I think you need to take a rest because you are you know." I smiled uneasy at him and grab my bike.

"Okay? See you around. Hehe." He turned his back on me, walking like a zombie towards his car. Is he really going to drive in his situation?

I grip my lower lip again and I just find myself walking towards him. "Wait!" 

He stopped and face me. "What? Are you going to take the payment?"

I shook my head. "No. Uhm. Are you really going to drive like that?"

His forehead knotted. "Yeah. Why? Are you going to offer me a stay at your house?" He asked that made me gulped.

"My apartment is just nearby. You can take a night there instead driving like that in the roadway. It's too dangerous," I said trying my best not to utter in nervous. You are gonna regret this Christmas!

His face become serious and still looking at me straight seems he is trying to read what is in my mind. "Are you sure about that?" 

"Yeah and don't think something else because I'm not like the other girls. I'm just concern in your condition," I said before he start thinking something strange about what I am doing. 

He chuckled. "Okay, Christmas take me now to your apartment. I really have to rest right now." He said and enter at his car.

I immediately hop in to my bike and lead the way towards at the apartment where I currently living. His car is just following me from behind and I am a little bit of nervous. This is the first time that I'm going to bring a man at my apartment. You really out of your mind, Christmas! As we finally arrived, I stop and he did the same thing. I watched him goes out at his car and our eyes met for a second.

"So, you are living here?" he asked as he averted his eyes at the old structure of the apartment.

"Yea, I'm living here," I answered feeling ashamed that he might probably thinking or rather expecting that I am living in an expensive apartment.

"Okay." He chuckled. "Why are you sounded ashame?"

I gulped on his question. "Hahaha. You're just in delusional. Let's go inside. I'm going to offer you a coffee." I smiled uneasy and start walking inside the building.

We are now at the staircase and I'm leading the way towards to my room. He is in my back following my footsteps and I'm still a little bit nervous. I don't know this man but I brought him with me! Is he also have the same thought like mine? Like who is the girl he is following? I stopped in front of an old painted black door as we finally reach in my room. 

"Is this your room?" he asked while I'm getting my key inside my pocket.

"Yea, this is it," I answered and open the door. I look for the switch first and turn on the lights before we enter inside. I place my bike beside door as I closed it.

"Your place is nice. Are you leaving here alone? It seems you are," he asked, checking every corner of my small apartment using his eyes.

"Uhm, yea." and you're just the only man I brought here, I said on my mind and walk towards my dirty kitchen. I start making a black coffee for him that will make his tipsiness less. 

"Where is your parents, Christmas?" he asked that made me stop.

I finish first stirring the coffee and headed through him. "Here is the coffee." I said and sit with him in my dusty couch.

"Thanks," he said and start sipping a little in the colorless cup that I gave.

"They are already gone," I answered to his question that made him stop.

"Oh, I'm sorry for your lost."

I fake a laugh. "It's okay. I already moved on." I smiled at him and he did the same thing. "Uhm, I leave you here now." I said and stood up. "You can use this couch and if you need something just knock on my room."

"Okay. Thank you."

I just smiled at him before I turned my back, heading towards my room. I heaved a sigh as I got inside because of nervous. Is it really okay that I brought him here? Isn't that weird because he has a girlfriend and he is with me? I bited my lower lip on my thoughts and headed at the bathroom to take a halfbath. After half of hour, I goes out with only towel covering my naked body.

Knock! Knock!

"Christmas? Are you still awake?" Duke asked outside.

I gulped as I hold tightly on my towel. "Y-yea, I am. Why?"

"Can I borrow a blanket? It's kinda cold at your couch."

"Just a moment!" I hurriedly wear my oversize Hello Kitty shirt that probably above my knee and get the blanket inside my cabinet. I walk fast in the door hanging my towel around my neck. "Here." I handed the blanket to him but he didn't take it. "Uhm. Is there any problem?"

"Can I stay by your side, Christmas?" He take a one step towards me.

"Wh-what do you mean?" I statued where I stand, watching this tipsy man in front me.

"My fiance cheated on me," he said broken that made me blink.

"I-I'm sorry about that." I bited my lower lip.

"I am sad, Christmas and I want this sadness gone. Could you take away this for me?" he begged and step again towards me.

"I-I don't know how," I said and step backward because he keeps on coming closer to me.

"Just follow my lead." He close the door and suddenly pull me closer to him. I unconsciously drop the blanket as his lips touch on mine. Oh my gosh! "Respond." He said while still kissing me.

I gulped twice before I respond to his kisses and he made it more deeper that I almost drown. His lips are travelling down to my neck and I can't do nothing but to moan with the pleasure he is giving. 

"I want you now, Christmas," he said, putting kiss marks on my neck.

"Then take me, ahhhh." 

He suddenly carried me in bed and goes at my top then continue kissing me at my neck. I am not wearing any but only this oversized t-shirt that covering my body. I already feel the wetness between my thighs and want him now inside me! While he still busy in my neck, my hands are busy at taking off his pants.

"Let me help you," Duke said as he stopped on what he is doing.

While he is taking off his pants, I wear off the only thing covering me and facing him now nakedly. We are now both naked at the top of my bed. We don't have any lights here in my room and the only lights we have is the post outside that penetrating at the window. It was enough for us to see each other.

"You're beautiful," he said that made me blush.

"T-thank you."

"Let me kiss you again," he said seems asking permission.

I gave him only a nod and our lips touch once again. He was slowly leaning me in the bed and I can feel his hard cock between my thighs. Is this really happening? It seems like I was just in a dream.

"Ahh-fuck!" I suddenly cussed when I felt something teared up inside me.

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. I thought you are not anymore virgi-"

"Shut up! I am!" I cut him off because embarrassment and at the same time the pain between my thighs! 

"Don't worry I will make the pain gone," he said then start thrusting inside me slowly.

My lips almost bleed as I bite it because of pain. It feels like I'm going to my death! He keeps on thrusting and thrusting me inside until the pain I feel changing into pleasure.

"Ahh, ahh, faster, Duke!" I said between my moans and I don't know where I will tilt my head. 

"I love to be inside you, Christmas, ugh! It's so tight," he said still keeps on thrusting me.

"Make it deeper, Duke! Ahh."

Duke thrust his cock faster and made it deeper that almost reach at my end point. I can't no longer think clearly and all I want is to finish what we started. I know this night will just be this night. Tomorrow we are going back where we should be. Me at the Laundry Shop while he at his fiancee. I will really regret this after.
