EMILY
He seemed uncomfortable throughout the movie for some reason. Or pissed, like super irritated.
What was wrong with him?
Was it me? Had I said something to make him mad?
We were watching The Proposal, and I don’t know why we’d even chosen that movie because I wasn’t paying attention to it, I spent most of my time staring at him.
“Are you mad at me?” I asked.
“Why would I be mad at you, Emily?” He asked, “you’re my employer. Employees don’t have a right to be mad at their boss.”
“Boss’s daughter you mean.”
“It’s the same thing.” He retorted.
“Would you like to watch another movie?” I asked him, changing the subject. I was eating the macaroni like a hungry buffalo, “this is sooo good.”
“Thanks.” He said, exiting the movie, “I don’t like watching sappy shit. You’re okay with watching horror?”
I hated horror. Like completely. I didn’t do creepy clowns, serial killers, or haunted houses.
Reluctantly I nodded, “sureeee, yeah.”
Out of everything that he could have picked, my boy chose Conjuring.
Halfway through the movie, and he was watching it with such seriousness. This was no fun. I didn’t want to watch a couple of kids getting spooked in their bedroom, or the way their mother was going to get possessed.
What I wanted to do was straddle his lap, and press my lips to his.
But guess what? I was sitting through the entire movie. Things we can do for the boys we love. It’s ridiculous. I yawned, and then quickly shut my mouth when I realized who was sitting beside me. Stretching my arms, I leaned sideways onto the couch’s armrest. I felt Seth’s eyes on me, and then he straightened up.
He jumped from the couch like his ass was lit on fire. “Could you please fucking stop that?”
I stared at him in bewilderment, taken aback by the tone in his voice, “stop doing what?”
“Jesus. Have you looked at what you’re wearing?” He asked, not looking at me.
“A nightgown?”
“Yeah, like I don’t have eyes to notice that! As if I see a trench-coat.”
I sat up straighter, “why are you being rude? What’s your problem?”
“Do you never have men visiting your house? The newspaper guy? The guy who cuts the grass on your lawn? Maybe?”
“I have no such people here. Yes, there is a person who comes in every twice a week to cut the grass and keep the garden maintained.”
He indicated a hand towards me, “and this is how you greet him? In that flimsy nightgown that barely covers your tits?”
My mouth was gaping open, like wide open. He did not just say that! And he noticed my tits?
Consciously, I pulled at the frilly jacket. “The lawn mowing person is a fifty-year-old man. Joe is a decent guy, he never looked at me that way.”
“And you think a fifty year old man wouldn’t look at you the wrong way if you’re found wearing inappropriate clothing.”
“I don’t see him at all. He visits, cuts grass, and leaves. Besides, I’ve always dressed like this for bed, even when my brother Cale and dad were around.”
“I’m not your brother, Emily-Mae, nor your father.”
“…the saints of all the angels, I command you to reveal yourself...” the scene on the Conjuring movie blared on the screen. The woman on the chair spewing blood on the white sheet while the investigators tried to exorcise her.
I picked up the remote control and switched off the TV.
“But why are you angry ?”
He huffed a breath, “Nevermind. Good night, Emily Mae.”
He left me sitting there foolishly. It was going to be the first night that Seth was going to stay in the house, (technically outside but that studio was part of our land), and we were already fighting.
Okay, maybe I pretended like I wasn’t wearing this on purpose but I had totally done it knowing it would affect him. I wanted a positive effect, and not him turning away and yelling at me in revulsion.
I wanted him to notice me, and not as Sweet-Potato Emily but as a normal pretty girl with curves.
Guess that’s too much to ask because now I’d made him mad, I’d pushed him too far. I should stop watching dumb romantic movies. Seducing wasn’t something that I could ever accomplish, at least not a man. Apple pie? Yes.
I saw him from the window as he walked towards his studio.
When I went to bed, I couldn’t sleep. I could see ghouls and ghosts in the dark, hovering above me. The slightest of sounds was driving me crazy.
Stupid Seth and his stupid horror movies.
* * *
SETH
I couldn’t sleep. I worked on my homework, I tried to study a bit but nothing helped. Emily’s nightgown kept haunting my dreams. Yeah, it wasn’t the conjuring ghost, it was her.
Emily and her luscious body that she used to tease me with.
I didn’t want to sound like a pervert, but she was the only girl I’d ever thought about like this at night, surely that meant I’d gone way over my head, and then to make matters worse she wanted to taunt me?
I’d sat through the movie, trying not to stare at her while all I wanted to do was bury my face between her melon-sized breasts.
I was breathing hard.
“Fuck!”
I slipped my hand beneath the covers, wrapped my hand around my dick, and began working on it. It was already wet with pre-cum which was a clear indication that she’d done a good job of making me extremely horny.
I touched my chest, and down to my abs imagining it was her hands doing it. I thought of her large soft breasts pressed against me and I groaned.
I closed my eyes and squeezed my cock, and imagined I was sinking into her heat. I spread my legs wide, and couldn’t care less about the cover that fell off my body. I tightened my fist over my hard length, my dark mind conjuring up the dirtiest fantasies.
“Oh god, yes, baby....”
The room was filled with my grunts as continued to stroke myself faster. The Emily of my imagination sat atop me and took my entire length inside of her. This fake Emily wanted me as much as I wanted her.
“Just like that...take me deeper, baby...”
I was going to come so hard. I increased the speed, stroking myself faster.
“I’m going to come...” I was breathing hard, gritting my teeth. I let go.
It was pure bliss as ribbons of white cum spurted onto my stomach and it took me a while to come down from the crescendo.
It was also one of the best orgasms I’ve ever had. Funny how the illusion version of Emily had satisfied me in ways that it didn’t compare to my real sexual experiences with various other women.
I sighed in contentment when I heard a sound.
I had been so blindsided by lust that I hadn’t heard the knock on the door.
My blood ran cold when I saw Emily standing, gaping at me, her eyes never blinking with her hand on the door handle. Her cheeks were a deep color of scarlet and that’s when I knew...
She’d watched my entire show.
EMILY I didn’t remember my life ever being exciting. The only exciting moment was going to Disney Land when I was six and meeting Mickey who I had taken a picture with and bragged about it at school for two years straight. The picture was still hanging on the wall by the staircase.But that had been the most exciting part of the seventeen years of my life, except tonight...Tonight changed a lot of things.Watching Seth fall apart under his bedsheets almost came to a tie.I had knocked once on the door and then decided he’d already slept, I’d opened the door to check.I was not some stalker, and I didn’t make a habit of watching hot guys sleep, and yet my behavior was bordering on somewhat crazy.I’d been up for an hour thinking about the ghosts, and being mad at Seth for what he’d said. I’d imagined the ghost sitting on top of my wardrobe, then a pair of hands pulling my cov
EMILY In the morning, I tiptoed downstairs to the kitchen slowly, afraid I’d have to face Seth. I’d spent half the night thinking about his naked body and the next half constructing scenarios of how the conversation would go.The bottom line is, I hadn’t slept much. I had to dab some concealer and the pressed powder to hide my tired eyes. It was a good thing that my makeup skills were at a pro level. My winged liner had game.I rounded the corner and walked into the kitchen stealthily.But this was my house, so why was I walking like a burglar?Seth was nowhere in sight. Then I remembered he usually went to school early because of the Ice-hockey practices. Their season was coming up soon so that meant he would be busy in the games again.The aroma of fresh food wafted from the kitchen island. There was some food left on the counter covered in saran wrapped plates and bowls.I removed the foils caref
SETHThe look on Emily's face was priceless. She looked ready to bolt, but I knew she wouldn't do that, I was still carrying some of her books. "You are very very naughty." She said, partly laughing and blushing. "You don't know the half of it," I told her. She smiled at my teasing. Her dark coffee eyes crinkling in the corners. Her brown curled hair touched her waist. She was wearing a bright orange baggy sweater over a matching dark brown skirt that came a little above her knees, and boots. She looked extremely classy, and hot. Always fucking hot. "What class do you have right now?" I asked, trying to act casual as fuck but in reality, I was having this weird fluttering in my stomach. "I have Chemistry." She answered. "Why do you need to take that class?" "Excuse me?" She asked. I pointed between her and me, "You don't think we have good chemistry
SETH “Hey!” I said over the phone. “My Honeybun, what are you doing?” She cooed at me in her teasing voice. I was tempted to tell her I wasn’t hers but kept my mouth shut. “Shopping.” “I went to your apartment but that loser neighbor of yours told me you moved out. You never even told me about it.” I could feel her pout through the phone even though I couldn’t see her. “Yeah...uh...actually, I found a better place. I’m renting the studio apartment at the Vasquez’s.” I blurted out without thinking. Shit! “You mean sweet-potato Emily’s house? Whoa! Can you even afford that place?” She asked, giggling like the evil witch from the west. “Well, since we are taking Spanish together, she’s giving me a huge discount. She’s pretty cool.” “Since when did you start noticing that potato?” I was getting irritated by the second, “do you need something, Staysha?” “It’s been su
SETHI think my embarrass-O-meter had shot really high with the recent turn of events. I knew with certainty that Staysha was the one who leaked the video and had made it viral.The question was, why the hell would she go so far? Hadn’t I been honest with her from the start? Didn’t she know it was temporary? And it wasn’t like we’d been exclusive. She was screwing around while being with me and I had no problem as long as we were being safe.With all these other kids staring, she’d made a Hannah Fucking Baker out of me.Hi! I’m Seth...Seth Monroe. Welcome to my screwed-up life!I punched the locker so hard, a dent formed on the metal. I knew I should come up with a solution rather than destroying school property that I would probably need to pay for.What was Emily thinking about me? Definitely not anything nice. Chances were that our newfound friendship was about to go extinct.She
SETH I stared at the screen, watching Staysha getting fucked for the zillionth time.“How do you know it’s not me? She’s moaning my name!”“I can hear just fine.” Emily sounded annoyed. “Look at the hand holding her.”She paused the video and zoomed in further. A male hand splayed on Staysha’s ass came into clear view. The video was a little grainy, but one could see the hand clearly.“Do you notice a small tattoo just below the thumb and the forefinger?”I looked closely. It was a tattoo design of an Anchor.She reached out for my right hand and inspected the place there. A zing of pleasure went through my body as her fingers traced that part of my skin and I was finding it hard to concentrate on what she was saying because my body was humming with her touch.“Are you listening to what I’m saying?”“Ye
EMILY"Honey, I need a favor.” That was the first thing my Dad said when he called me after one week.There were no pleasantries exchanged, not even an ‘Emily-are-you-managing-fine-on-your-own?’ because if he allowed himself to ask that question, I might answer with an ‘I’m-not-okay.’ And that’s not an answer that my daddy would like to hear so why not just ignore it altogether. A hefty amount of money was transferred into my account every month to cover everything and keep me from complaining. It was working in his favor.“What’s up, dad?” “The Hamilton’s called.” “Okay?” “They are hosting a fundraiser, our family is part of it. Your brother was supposed to attend it, but he bailed out.” That was very Cale like. Bailing out on important events because he felt like doing it. Cale was
EMILY Seth had been one second away from kissing me when the stupid phone had started ringing.It was his mother, Ruth. She was making sure her son was taking good care of me. The timing of the phone-call had been awful but I couldn’t be mad at her. If there was anyone who cared about me more than anyone, it was her.The car basked in radio silence, and the ride was starting to get awkward by the second. I connected my phone with the speakers and played some songs from my phone.Seth wasn’t saying anything as he stared ahead, lightly drumming his fingers on the wheel. I sneaked a look at him, secretly admiring the way his powerful hands maneuvered my car around.He caught my eye movement and looked at me, grinning, “You checking me out, Emily-Mae?”“What if I am? Is that a crime? Will you arrest me, Officer Monroe?”He chuckled, “You are guilty as charged. I’d have to d
EMILY Seth's emerald eyes turned a shade darker, glittering in the dim light, his nostrils flared. I watched as his gaze swept slowly from bottom to top, lingering over my chest a little longer."Shut the door." He commanded in a gravel thick voice. I closed the door behind me and stepped inside the room. "Come here." His hand was raised towards me. I walked to him, feeling my heart beating against my chest, desire flickering to life. He put his hands around my waist, standing between his thighs while he was sprawled in the revolving chair. He had to look up at me due to the height difference now. I placed my hands over his shoulders, feeling the heat of his body through my palms. "Emily, this is wrong. You understand that, right?" His voice had a deep baritone, he swallowed, "I'm your housekeeper, and you're..." "I know.""Your family employs my mother." I igno
SETHI guess I could tell Emily the truth, but leave out the important details. She wanted to know about my past, and I knew that she only meant to do that because she was genuinely curious to get to know me, but there was no way I was going to talk about the shit-storm that I left behind in Connecticut. That was a can of worms that I would never open.Moving to Bountyville to live with my mother was meant as a fresh start, and talking about that now just beat the purpose of what I’d initially started out to do.“You told me your dad lives in Connecticut. What does he do there?”“He owns a farm and a small departmental store. I used to help him with both.” I shrugged. “Like I said, nothing special.” I couldn’t meet her eyes, not with the stuff that I was hiding.When I dared a glance towards her, she had a smile on her face as she sipped on her coke. “Did your father remar
EMILY I made a huge mistake. Not only had I been rude to Seth but I'd also called him a man-whore which was completely unacceptable. Seth wasn't mine. I mean at least not now. He hadn't given me any indication that I was his girlfriend so I had no right to say things to him that I had. Things from last night were irreversible. He'd looked hurt, and it killed me when I went to bed. The next day during lunchtime, I'd spotted him with his teammates. His dark brown hair was tousled, a few unruly locks swept on his forehead that were soft and smelled like cedar and woodsy with a twinge of refreshing peppermint. I knew that because I'd spent the night, running my fingers through his hair and smelling it. The next day, I'd sneaked into his bathroom to check the shampoo label and bought the exact bottle just so I could keep it and sniff it occasionally. Seth was just really really good-looking with his strong jawline, kissable lips, a goofy g
EMILYAlice Lutz, the supreme beauty, prom queen, cheerleader, perfect hour-glass figure, and she was super nice. I didn’t have one bad thing to say about her.The car windows were fogged up. I stayed there, watching the car pull out of the parking lot and zoom off.My throat clogged up as different scenarios played inside my head. Seth and I weren’t exactly exclusive, at least we hadn’t had any kind of conversation that would suggest it but I thought it was obvious we wouldn’t fool around with someone else while we did it with each other.He’d also sworn off from having sex with me so maybe he was making sure he was getting it from somewhere else.Tears began welling up in my eyes as I drove home.* * *SETH It was midnight by the time I came back to the studio. I’d texted Emily letting her know that I wasn’t going to make it to
EMILY Indie: He sounds great, Em. I’m so happy for you ❤️Me: This is almost like a dream. I can’t believe this is happening to me. I wish you were here so we could talk and you could give me some pointers over a Frappuccino since you know...you’re a relationship expert. 😏😜Indie: LOL! So what does he look like?Me: His hair is the color of dark chocolate, and he’s got the most beautiful green eyes. And when he looks at me, I think my world stops. Indie: Sounds like a Disney prince. But wait, you said he’s a jock, isn’t he? Me: So? 🙄Indie: Um...Me: ??? Indie: Idk, Em. Most high school boys from our town are assholes so the way you talk about him, he does sound nice but you also know I can sniff bad from miles away.
SETH I was a little taken aback by having Emily’s arms around me. I turned around so we were facing each other.My gaze swept to her collarbone where I’d left a mark on her last night, unknowingly. She gave me a flirty look as she circled her arms around my neck, her dark eyes peered at me seductively.She went up on her lip-toes and pulled my face down to hers, and that was all it took for me to lose control. It proved one thing, that she hadn’t kissed me last night just because we were drunk, it was more than that.Emily might not have the slightest idea about my feelings for her, but at least she was as attracted to me as I was towards her. That was enough for now. Her lips moved insistently over mine, and she smelled just as I remembered.Spring rain, vanilla, and roses.I kissed her harder, sucking her tongue greedily forcing a loud moan from her mouth. I grabbed her ass, hauled her up, and placed her
SETH I was having a hard time believing that this was actually happening.She’d asked me to kiss her and then moaned asking for more. If Emily had shown any signs that she wanted me to stop, I would have. No matter how drunk I could get, I knew my limits and when a girl said no, I would stop, no questions asked.But she’d asked for it. One thing had led to another, and before I could comprehend what we were about to do, I was on top of Emily, kissing her as if my life depended on it.Kissing wasn’t even the word I’d use for it.I’d been feasting on her. Plain and simple.I’d turned into a starved man dying to take whatever I could get.I kissed, licked, and nibbled her sensitive skin in no particular order. I knew for sure I’d probably left some mark on her unintentionally. I’d been so caught up with trying to possess her, I’d lost my composure.I
EMILY“I dare you to take off your shirt.”Seth was challenging me, I could see it in his expressions and he was sure smug about it. He thought I wouldn’t do it.Consuming the alcohol had made my head feel lighter, and a daring spirit entered into my body. I felt like I could do anything, there was nothing in this world that was unattainable.I reached for the hem of my t-shirt, pulled it over my head, and tossed it onto the floor.Seth’s mouth hung open, and he didn’t take his gaze off me as he reached for the bottle and took a long swig. His emerald eyes were shining in the dim light of the sitting area, and if I wasn’t mistaken, I saw his nose flaring in what I assumed was desire but he quickly looked away.I know my breasts were practically spilling out of the cami crop top I was wearing, no bra. He didn’t have to look closely to notice my nipples sticking to the fabric. It was a
EMILY I stayed silent on the ride back home. Seth tried to ask me things but all he got was one letter answers and then I guess he just got tired.My weight was a sensitive subject that I liked to avoid, and Nova had all but hammered over my weaknesses.I wondered if Seth thought the same about me. Maybe he didn’t even look at me as a woman, just a girl that his mother worked for.I didn’t realize when he pulled the car towards the dirt road and parked it in a secluded spot. Cutting the engine, he turned to face me.“Why did you stop?” I asked.“You’ve been silent, and you’re acting strange. Did something happen at the party? You can talk to me.”I shook my head, refusing to look at him, staring ahead. Then I changed my mind. I wanted to talk to someone.“Seth, if I asked you a question, can you give me an honest answer? As a friend, I want you to speak the
