Ch 6 - KATHERINE

The ride is agonizingly slow as we all sit in silence. My phone buzzes in my lap; the sound shrill in the quiet vehicle. I turn the screen from my thighs to find Audrey’s name blinking with a text. Sparing a side glance toward Dan, I find his eyes dutifully on the road, but I angle the phone away anyway, so he can't see.

Audrey: So? What did you decide?

Kat: You gave me tequila, I'm not sure I could not if I wanted to.

Kat: which I totally do

Kat: And he is incredibly sexy

Kat: Are you sure you're okay with this?

Audrey: YES BABE! I want all the details in the morning!

Audrey: On second thought, not sure I want to hear about Daniel in bed ….

I chuckle, and Dan finally breaks and looks over at me with his eyebrows up.

“Don’t worry about it.” I tease with a wink. He rolls his eyes. He stops the car in front of Mark’s building, hitting the brakes hard enough to jerk. Audrey pulls Mark from the car, shooing him toward the building before coming to stand at my window. I roll it down for her, leaning out to hear the words I know are coming. She kisses me on the cheek.

“Have fun,” she whispers in my ear, then she’s off. Dan guns it back to my apartment, clearly trying to hide his hurry, but clearly failing. The tires squeal as he flies into a parking spot, throwing it into park before we’re done moving. I climb out slowly, blatantly looking past his waiting hand. Though, I stumble a little when we start up the stairs. I grab his arm and we walk, slowly, up the first flight.

“This is too fucking slow,” Dan growls, swinging me into his arms to rush up the rest of the stairs. He sets me down in front of my door, waiting impatiently for me to unlock it. But I want to make him wait.

The impatient bastard.

He huffs behind me.

“In a hurry to get somewhere?” I ask him in an innocent voice, or well, as innocent as my horny body can muster.

“Katherine, if you do not unlock this door,” he grits out, pausing to take a breath.

“You’ll what, Daniel?” I challenge, looking straight into his green eyes. He doesn’t look away or respond, he just looks at me, the tips of his lips tipping up with mischief. His fingertips track down my sides, stopping to grab roughly at my hips. In the next moment, my face is pushed against the dark wood of my door, his thigh pressing between my legs. I moan, slowly taking the key from my clutch to slide it into the lock. His hot breath blows against my neck, and I shiver. Finally, with trembling fingers, I twist the key with an audible click.

Before I even swing the door in, Dan barrels us both over the threshold, spinning me back around, and kicking the door shut behind him. I hardly notice the shaking of the doorframe as his body presses into mine. He looks me right in the eyes then fuses his lips against mine, deeply, roughly, teasing my lips with his tongue. I shudder at the assault, parting my lips, and inviting his tongue to break through. Crazed with lust and desire, I tip my head back, moaning against his mouth. I whimper when he pulls back, then immediately melt against him as his lips leave a trail of kisses down my jaw and across my neck.

His hands wrap around my body to grab my ass, hoisting me up, so my face is level with his. Our lips meet again, more passionate this time; his arousal noticeable through his pants. He carries me into my bedroom, and drops me down onto the bed; his barely-there control simpering in his eyes. Torturously slow he crawls on top of me. He puts his hands behind my shoulders, forcing me into a seated position before gingerly lifting my dress off over my head, and pushing me firmly back down to the bed. His gentle then rough actions a clear indicator of his slipping control. I stare into his eyes, fully aware that I am laying only in my underwear with my best friend sitting over me.

I am also fully aware that he is doing nothing about it.

Like … what the hell?

“Dan,” I start, but before I can get another word out his lips are on mine again. I grip the edge of his t-shirt, pulling it up over his head, revealing his toned chest and abs. Then he stops again. I groan as he pulls away.

“Kat,” he looks at me, those green eyes full of concern for a moment, “are you sure?”

His body has turned rigid in his attempt to control his lust. His words do give me pause. I know if I decide at any moment, I don’t want this, he’ll stop. But I do want this, dammit! I am ready.

“Yes, I’m sure, Daniel.”

Apparently, that’s all he needed. His grin returns for a moment before his mouth is back on mine. I pull him closer, moaning softly against his skin. He groans with desire, reaching behind me, unclasping my bra to reveal my breasts fully to him. His hands are firm on my back, as he kisses down my neck. He drags his tongue over my collarbones, suckling down the valley of my breasts, reaching the sensitive skin around my nipple before sucking it into his mouth. His other hand moves to work the other one, squeezing gently. I sigh with pleasure, arching my back into him.

Kissing his way back up, he reaches my ear, “How long has it been, Kat, since you’ve had a man touch you?” He whispers grinning against my neck. I open my mouth to respond, but the words turn into a yelp as he pushes two fingers inside me. He smothers the sound with a kiss. I reach down, anxious to unbutton his pants.

Thank goodness he isn’t wearing a belt.

He pulls out his hand, and finishes undressing himself. I hear him chuckle, quickly realizing I am laying there with my mouth open, blatantly staring at his erect cock.

He’s so big. I've heard Drey talk about her guys. I read. I know how sex works, but how in the hell is that going to fit inside of me?

I snap my mouth closed, and force my eyes up to his. Leaning back over me, he uses one hand to slip my panties off my body, flinging them to the floor. That look of concern is back, warring with the desire riddling his body, but I can't think of anything except his cock rubbing against my body.

“Kat, this might hurt a little at first …” He trails off, unsure. I pull his head down to mine, giving him a light kiss on the lips.

“Dan, I understand the drill. You aren’t going to break me.” I whisper seductively in his ear, nipping at it lightly. “I trust you,” I add softly. He places one hand on either side of my head, that devilish grin lighting up his face, then pushes himself completely inside me with a single thrust.
