Frozen. Cold. It's so cold. Shit. I can't feel my fingers.
Megan fluttered her eyes open and saw a dark room. Why is it dark? She remembers opening the bedside lamp before she slept. Did i? Megan reached for it and felt for the switch, she turned it once but nothing happened. She turned it again but there still was nothing.
'What the hell?' Megan sat up and clucthed on the blanket tighter. It has gotten immensely cold since she has slept. Her whole body felt numb and she shivered. She reached for her phone and was blinded momentarily when her phone screen lit up. 01:43 AM. After a groan teeth chatter combo, she wrapped herself up in her blanket and walked out of her room. She knocked on Kate's to know if she turned off the heater and every bit of electrical appliance in her house.
'Kate?' She knocked a couple times. When there was no response, she turned the knob. She was suprised to see that it was not locked. Megan peaked her head, not wanting to fully come in as she felt it was trespassing. 'Kate?' She called out again. Still, there was no response. When the cold made her shiver once more, she decided to just come in. I'm cold. Fuck it.
Megan crossed the threshold and softly padded inside. She was halfway through Kate's bedroom when she called out. 'Kate!'
Thankfully, the blonde stirred and turned to Megan. 'Megan?'
'I think the power's out.' Megan bundled tighter, Kate's room is much colder than where she was staying.
Kate pulled herself up. 'Shit. Hold on.'
The storm raged outside after Kate's statement. The blonde stood up and tried to find a candle in the dark. Megan could only hear Kate as she moved around. Finally, she saw a match light up an aromatherapy candle.
'So... can I grab some candles so I can go back to my room and freeze to dee-a-thhh?' Megan chattered as she teased.
Kate stood up and went to her. She touched Megan's cheek and was immediately concerned when she felt it was ice cold. 'Jesus, Megan, you're freezing.' She wrapped a arm around and ran her hand up and down the blanket covering Megan's forearm. 'Are you okay?'
'It's just cold.'
Kate grabbed the candles she just lit. 'C'mon.'
They both went to Megan's room. Kate laid down the candles on the bed side table as Megan crawled into bed. The redhead gripped hard on the blanket and she started shaking. Kate noticed and hovered over her. She touched her cheeks again before she moved to the closet and grabbed a couple more blankets. She unfolded them and covered Megan. 'Any better?'
'A little. Why aren't you cold?'
'I'm used to it. It is after all my apartment. You could get hypothermia...' Kate's voice trailed off as if she was thinking but Megan couldn't be sure since she closed her eyes.
Megan was already curling up to a ball when she felt the other side of the bed dip. She opened one eye and saw Kate trying to get under the covers. 'What are you doing?' Kate was already by her side when she whispered.
Kate wrapped her arms around her ME, causing her to immediately stiffen. 'I'm keeping you warm.' She snuggled into Megan and ran her hands up and down her back this time.
To her credit, Megan did get warm. But it wasn't due to Kate sharing her body heat or the friction she was creating on her back, she was suddenly becoming aroused. 'Kate, I-'
'Just shut up and hug me okay? I don't want you freezing to death.'
Well, atleast it was working. Megan returned the hug and pulled Kate closer to her. Her forehead touched Kate's shoulder and she very discretly took in her boss' scent. Sandalwood. 'Thank you.'
'Mhm, are you hot yet?' Kate's hands stopped and settled on the small of Megan's back.
Kate's choice of words made Megan's breathing shallow a bit. She's killing me. 'Still a little cold but it's-'
'Where do you want me to rub you next?'
That stopped Megan's breathing. The delivery was in no way lust laced but Megan still couldn't help but think that Kate was doing this on purpose. She has to be. Does that mean...? Megan tried to test the waters. 'Did you just hear yourself?'
Kate chuckled. 'Megan...'
Oh. Okay, then, I look like an horny idiot. Damnit. 'Right, sorry.' The hug got awkward after, atleast for Megan since Kate didn't say anything, so she decided to just drop it. Kate did a fine job of warming her up and now she just wanted to sleep. Tomorrow, she's gonna go back to work and pretend this never happened. Of course, she knew it would be hard having been caught perving twice and being hugged by her scantily clad boss but she will try. She has to.
'So do you want me to rub you still?'
Damnit, Kate!
Megan tried to speak but all the words were knocked out of her when she felt Kate's hand on her thigh. 'Here, maybe?' Kate asked. Her hands started just an inch above Megan's knee and slowly slid up, fabric of Megan's a line skirt in tow. It reached the middle of her thigh and went back down but circled and landed behind Megan's knee. This was completely different than what Kate was doing earlier and it made Megan heat up exponentially.
'K-kate, what are you-?' Before she could take a breath, Kate ran her hand up behind Megan's thigh again. She slid it up even higher until Kate reached Megan's ass. 'K-kate?' Megan reared back and tried to look at her boss' face. She swallowed when she saw those blue eyes darkened with... lust? Holy. Shit.
Kate leaned in, grazing her cheek with Megan's and whispered. 'Are you hot yet?' Now, Megan was sure that her delivery was anything but innocent.
Oh. My. God. She's just as horny as I am! Megan wanted to be sure so she kept her cool and asked, 'Are you doing what I think you're doing?'
'The power didn't go out.' Kate's teeth scrapped on Megan's earlobe and was sucked on lightly. 'I turned it off.'
