Her eyes peeked open to the sound of birds and squinted at the sunlight filtering through uncovered windows. She would've groaned and rolled over, but there were a few things wrong with that.
Space was even more limited, someone was hogging the blanket – not like she was cold in the slightest though, and a strong arm was draped over her back.
She stared at tanned skin, listening to breathing, and felt warm skin on her cheek. Her hand rose and carefully rested on his chest to keep from waking him. Her palm flattened and felt the steady thud of his heart and a small smile appeared.
The alarm jolted her from serenity and she nearly scrambled to shut it off. She made sure to get up an hour earlier than normal to could deal with this, but now all she wanted to do was lay in bed in the crook of his shoulder and stare at toned, tanned, smooth, muscled chest and -
She heaved a mental sigh.
'That was hours ago. Get over it!' She smiled despite herself and stared at him. The cold air of the morning chilled her skin, but she ignored that. The heat radiating off his body and what she felt with her legs under the covers helped keep her from freezing.
And have any consequences of her skin goose-bumping.
She could sit like this until he woke up. Sex appeal was SO underrated with this man who was haphazardly covered with her summer blanket and quietly snoring on his back.
She should've told him she loved him – that would've been perfect. She didn't know what he would do, but didn't have to think about that now. She didn't know whether she WANTED to think of that.
Would she be able to tell him?
Given she had such problems telling him ANYTHING serious, she doubted it. It was going to be like pulling teeth – wisdom teeth almost.
"Staring is not polite."
She jerked an inch when a hand touched her stomach. A heavy tingle went through her as fingers absently circled her navel. Her throat went a bit dry as her heart sped up.
"Morning." She quietly replied, mouth tilting.
He smiled back and slowly moved to prop himself on his elbows. "Hey you..." His lips met hers in a soft kiss. He couldn't help himself to behave that well with a naked girl within hand-length and one rose.
She sighed as his fingers created new circles to accompany the others. She knew he could feel her heartbeat, as his hand was almost directly over it.
She finally pulled back, torn between wanting him to stop and continue. "I should...get a shower."
He grinned and plopped back on the pillow. "Go ahead then, I won't stop you."
She stared at him, a little off-set by that. She looked to the robe hanging on her closet, wondering if she should even bother. Sam was still sleeping and would be for a while...and Inaki was still looking at her.
What was the point in putting on clothes??
She mentally shook herself and looked to her companion. He didn't seem intent on moving any time soon so she would have to climb over him. Adrenaline hit - she would be in prime position to mimic last night - but forced herself to move. She wasn't going to get anything done by sitting here.
She was halfway over, one leg and arm on either side of him, when his hips bucked up and off-balanced her. She crashed onto him and was too stunned to move.
He grinned and chuckled. Arms went over her back and pinned her. "On second thought...maybe I might. That position was too tempting to ignore."
Her face blazed, and she mentally catalogued she needed to stop after last night. Last night was the only thing she could blush over and she crossed that line.
He leaned up and nipped her collarbone. "Mm, you smell good. And you feel good too."
A conscious smile appeared. She allowed him to continue his administrations and remain in this compromising – and very arousing – position before school appeared in her mind.
"I really do need that shower."
He heaved a sigh, pondering on letting her go or not, before his arms tossed wide. He let her slide off him, which did not help his tolerance any, and watched her walk to the door. Brown checked the back out, eyeing the curve of her spine and the rear he touched last night.
'Nice...' He mused, feeling his body react. He rolled to the other side when she opened the door, not wanting to get into it again. Today was Friday and she had classes. He knew what she sacrificed, having a clear schedule of her work and college, and couldn't be that selfish.
Her body stuck through the crack in the door and he turned back, getting a nice picture of her chest again.
'On second thought...'
"I'll make breakfast when I'm done. If you want, go back to sleep and I'll wake you when I'm finished."
Go back to sleep...he was awake in more ways than one! She was a temptress of the worst degree. And he thought seeing her in tight clothes was sexy!
He groaned as the shower turned on and gave him a few good mental images. "She's going to be the death of me." He whined, slapping a hand over his eyes.
~*~*~
She wasn't sore, but that was a good thing. Hot water still felt nice to ward the chill of the morning and she let it turn her skin red.
It was nice to find, upon inspection, no hickies or marks Inaki made from last night. That would be hard to explain, and she didn't think makeup would hide them. It was too hot to wear concealing clothes and she would end up getting questions over that.
She stayed a little longer than intended under the spray, kneeling against the tub and letting the spray hit her back. The pounding felt nice and relaxing; too good to get out from.
She eventually relented and turned the faucets off, remaining in kneeling stance to drip-dry. She tried to shake the bangs from her face, but they were too thick and getting too long to move sufficiently.
Feeling cold as she stood, she slowly moved the curtain aside. More water dripped over her skin, but felt a lot better with her eyes closed, and wrists draped over the bar. She put a bit of pressure on the curtain rod in leaning on it and hung her head to dry some more.
He could VERY easily swallow his tongue right now...if he could get it to WORK. Taking a few seconds to make use of the trashcan for the used condom and wrapper – and the urge to sneak a peek – got him where he was now. Mischievousness to play a prank on her hit and he swiped the towel off the rack before silence descended and she was aware he was here.
He never expected her to give him the best chance to stare at her near perfect – in his opinion anyway – nude form and watch the droplets follow her curves.
Arousal hit so hard he nearly doubled over. Hands clutched the towel in a death grip and he used that stranglehold to keep from rushing her. The passion from last night rose and he wanted to relive that. He wanted to hear her cry his name again to solidify the memory for his time away from her.
Feeling that was enough time, she stepped back and hands went to wring her hair out. 'One of these days, I've GOT to get to a salon.' She mused. A hand stuck out and touched wall. Her brow furrowed and she tried again, but fuzz never encountered her skin.
Knowing there was something on the rack, she felt for the back of the shower, the same wall the towel was hanging on, and tried again. Wondering just what was going on, she finally moved the bangs from her eyes and wiped water from them.
Green opened and she loudly gasped, taking an unconscious step back and losing her balance.
Having lost some control and moved closer was the only thing that saved her from a concussion or something worse. Hands whipped out and grabbed her shoulders, trying to help steady her. Her skin was too slick to get a good grip, but he tightened his hold and hoped not to hurt her.
She took a few breaths to fix her heart and steadied herself. Her face was flushed enough with the temperature, so didn't have to worry about the flush getting noticed.
He took a step back off the mat and grabbed the towel to toss over a shoulder. "I thought you could use a towel-dry." He muttered, eyeing her.
Adrenaline surged, which she was getting rather annoyed at. The thought of Inaki touching her entire body with his hands, regardless of the towel, was going to make her restraint snap. She didn't know if it was a good idea or not, but feet still propelled her over the lip and onto the bathmat.
She couldn't look away from the emotion in his eyes. He wanted her, it was so obvious. Her body was reacting to that and she had a feeling she was matching what she saw.
He stopped mere inches away and raised the towel. He slowly moved it over her arms, somehow kissing her during that. It was more emotional than any others they previously shared.
The towel ended up wrapped over her back, hands fisting it to pull her close. Her arms snaked over his waist and set his body on fire when fingers splayed over his skin.
"I never told you...but I need a shower as well..." He mumbled over her mouth.
Green peeked open when his hold laxed. The implications of what he was talking about were so blatant. There would be water, but no showering.
He let the towel fall to the floor and hands moved to the back of his head. One grasped the braid; the other pulled the tie from it. Brown never left green as he unraveled it.
She was going to melt in front of him, that was all there was to it! Seeing him in clothes and hair was undone was torture enough, but NAKED and untangled hair made her want to toss him in the shower and take advantage of him.
If she had a feeling he was doing this on PURPOSE.
She was vaguely aware of twisting and turning the water back on. Hands rested on either side of her hips when she did so and that was her only warning before hips sluggishly moved him against her.
Thank God the handle was strongly attached to the wall or she would've pulled it out of the tile! She nearly fell at the emotion he evoked when he rubbed against the nub that throbbed with urgency.
She was getting to that frantic point again.
Doing a quick feel to make sure they wouldn't be burned, she stepped inside and beckoned him in with a finger. He quickly followed and she yanked the curtain back. Water fell off the vinyl before she turned the shower on and more joined it.
She attacked his lips the second water hit. Her tongue nearly forced its was into his mouth and hands kneaded his back. Her front pressed against his, rubbing a little with insistency.
He groaned, able to do so with the noise. It didn't take long for them to get drenched. He was barely able to see with bangs in his eyes, but seeing was overrated when one could feel.
In minutes, he was sitting on his calves and trying to get as comfortable as he could for what was going to happen. The anticipation was killing him, and knowing what it was doing to her was driving him crazy. She was frenzied and barely stopped touching him. The domination she was putting him through was sexy as hell and he decided to let her have her way.
The shower didn't make it easy to see as it pounded over their heads, but she didn't need to see. All she needed was stability and her hands.
She straddled his waist and hands fumbled in between them. She didn't let him get to it as she slipped over him. Dual groans sounded as she attacked his lips, hips starting slow.
Somehow, being the dominator gave her an extreme power trip and loosened the inhibitions she had last night. "Inaki...God..."
"Kalie..." His lips pressed against the top of a breast. He ached to touch lower, but was preoccupied with the feelings she created with her movements.
She was going as fast as her body and the aches from her knees would allow, and he could tell she needed help. Hands tried to grasp and move her, but water made her skin too slippery. He managed to get a hold and increased their tempo a few degrees.
She needed him to go faster. She wanted to lean back and let him take control, but this was SO not the place for this! Nails dug into his back as she tried to find a stable something to grab for leverage.
"Inaki...please, I need - I want...help me..."
How could he resist that? He knew what she wanted and a hand left her rear to oblige. It trailed over her skin and across the part before delving further below and out of sight. He touched hot flesh and rubbed.
She cried out and buried her face in his neck. Her mouth suddenly widened and bit him in a savage, primal urge. She tried to keep from drawing blood, but feared she did some damage when her body spasmed and her jaw closed a little.
Her response did him in. He quickly pulled away from her and let himself go, arms tight around her body. His body spasmed as well and his face buried in her breasts. It was intense, more so than last night.
They panted under the water, trying not to inhale it to their lungs. She weakly rested on his lap, body humming and knees hurting. She was going to be lucky to walk with them if the porcelain didn't damage anything. That was not the smartest move in the world, but chalk it up to sexual tension needing to be unleashed.
It was a good thing he lived so far away because she had a feeling this was going to be a habit with them.
She offered him an extra towel and grabbed the one he dropped to the ground. She wrapped it around her and made for her room to dry off, face thoughtful.
It happened again. Sounds of noises, an indistinguishable mixture of human and animal, were easily heard over the shower. It was as if the shower faded into the background and someone turned up the volume on the noises. The images came again too, but went too fast for her to grasp anything. They were all a split second and went faster. They were almost synchronized in speed and were over when he pulled away. It was almost when they lost deep, physical contact that she came back to reality.
She didn't understand it and couldn't pass it off to the heat of the moment and her mind going haywire from orgasm. This was the second time and it was the exact same thing.
What was going on? It was like a dream when she was awake.
Only during orgasm. That's when these...things occurred. She was unable to pick anything out because nothing made sense. She didn't know if it would happen again, but was not going to ask Inaki to volunteer a third time to prove her right or wrong. She was too tired for that and her knees hurt.
Right now she REALLY didn't want to go to class. She wanted to plop on her bed and take a long nap. But that was not an option, no matter how good skipping for the first time sounded. She had responsibilities and bent them too much as it was now.
Arms encircled her from behind, lips roaming her shoulder seconds later. Her head tilted the opposite way as she leaned against him and threw thoughts to the backburner.
"That was...incredible." He murmured, moving up to her neck. Gods she smelled so good...
She hummed a vague agreement. Class was sounded less and less appealing and all she wanted to do now was curl up against Inaki again and take a nap with HIM. She didn't want him to leave yet. She wanted to ignore the outside world right now. It might as well not exist with the way he was making her feel.
"I don't want to go to class." She nearly whined, absently staring at a wall.
"Then don't – stay here with me."
Her lips tilted. "I was thinking it. But I have classes and –" Hands rose and undid the towel, cupping her breasts and cutting her off.
"I'll make it worth your while..." He whispered, grabbing an ear with his teeth.
She arched, rear pressing against his lap. He licked her ear in response and she rocked again.
Was this possible?? She wanted him again and she just had him! Her libido was going to kill her if she didn't walk away and put some distance until their next meeting...
A hand shifted low and trailed over her front. It stopped at reaching her abdomen. His fingers tiptoed lower until he touched hot flesh and rubbed.
She whimpered and pressed into him. Hands touched her and she was forgetting what she was supposed to be doing. Not ENTIRELY, but it was getting easier to say the hell with it all and drag him back to bed.
"Stay with me?" He rasped, licking her neck.
"Yes." She breathed, whirling around. She decimated air between them and attacked his lips. After a bit, she realized he was still in a towel and set to fix that. She tossed it out of the way and started inching backward to the bed, lips attached.
He was as good as he was the first. She was in too good a mood from the time this morning to be domineering and gladly let him take the reigns. She easily accommodated him...but her theory ended up proving true again.
They came with the orgasm he made her feel. She still didn't understand a thing, but it confused her greatly. She was able to forget it as he pulled her close and her thoughts drifted in the aftermath.
She knew what caused it – even if that was odd beyond belief – and could rationalize why and how later.
Right now she just wanted to sleep.
~*~*~
Two hours later, classes entirely forgotten with something way more important, green stared at two bottles, trying to make a decision. 'They both work, but I don't want to buy both and mix. This isn't exactly Tylenol, but they do the same things...'
Their second time was enough for exhaustion to set in and both dozed until realizing the day was leaving them behind. He decided it best to head home and she set about trying to wake up.
She was so relaxed after that nap and such massive physical activity that it was amazing. There was no real bad thing in her head, at least until one thing became entirely clear and she started worrying a little.
Last night was okay – in more ways than one. It was enjoyable yes, but Inaki also brought something. This morning, everything was unprotected sex.
She had too much at stake to get pregnant and her periods were annoying enough to try and keep track of. They weren't exactly by a calendar, and she never kept any record of them to go by. The last thing she wanted was to weigh either of them down for about eighteen years.
Teeth bit her lip. She was still undecided. This wasn't rocket science true, but birth control was the same all around as far as she knew.
Why did they have to market so many brands anyway?
She tapped one against her cheek and looked to the half-dozen on the shelf. It was embarrassing enough to walk down this aisle, as pregnancy tests and condoms glared at her from their spots nearby. The last thing she wanted was to announce to the world her sex life was active again.
She grabbed one and decided to give it a try. There were about thirty pills in here...that was a month at least. She could try the other brands if need be.
Turning, she left the area and headed for the checkout. She almost wished she needed to go to an ACTUAL pharmacy instead of a grocery store, but at least she didn't need to get a stupid doctor's note now.
That would be perfect.
Her head shook. She grabbed a few twenties from her back pocket and hoped it was enough.
