I managed to get out of bed, and I went and took a shower. While I was undressing, I saw the bruises on my hips and stomach from the night before. Memories of the fear started to make me cry. I was terrified. I could have been raped, or even worse; murdered. I still can't believe it. Benedict saved me, and he offered me his bed, alongside with his hospitality. I tried to rack my brain and find someway to repay him, but nothing come up. I walked into the tub and closed the curtains and I let yesterday's filth wash off me. The condescending hot water made me feel more at ease. I felt safe. I looked at the products that Benedict had, and they smelled nice, so I used them. I hope he doesn't mind.
When I finished my shower, I got dressed, I put my hair up in a ponytail, and I went downstairs. Benedict's house was beautiful. All white with wooden floors, white couches in the living area, a marble counter top in the kitchen, porcelain everything in the bathroom. The only splash of colors there were was some abstract paintings. I wonder if he painted them. I walked into the living area to see Benedict still in pajamas, and sitting down scrolling through his phone. He looked up and when he saw me, he smiled.
"Hey, come eat breakfast, Doctor Who is going to start soon." He said patting a spot right next to him for me to sit. When I sat down, it was my dream breakfast. Eggs, sunny side up. Bacon, extra crispy. A glass of orange juice, I'm guessing freshly squeezed, and some toast.
"How did you know about what I liked?" I asked smiling.
"I called Lily and asked her. I wanted to give you a special breakfast. Hopefully one to make you feel a bit better. It's like a proper late birthday breakfast." Benedict said, sounding all proud of himself.
"It's lovely. Thank you. For everything." I said. No one has ever been this kind with me before.
"It's my pleasure. I'm glad you like it." He said. I dug into my delicious breakfast. I felt like I was in heaven.
When I finished, I got up and I was about to start washing my dishes when the maid came up behind me.
"It's okay love, just leave that to me. It's my job after all. Did you like the breakfast?" The maid said.
"Yes I did, it was lovely thank you." I responded. She looked young, around her early 30s. She was blonde, and very pretty. Too pretty even.
"It's my absolute pleasure, ma'am. My name is Louise by the way."
"Pleasure to meet you, Louise. I'm Salma." I said. Louise suited her. A pretty name for a pretty woman.
"The pleasure is all mine, Salma." Louise said smiling. I walked back and sat next to Benedict.
The episode was about to begin. As the episode went by, we were watching like its the first time we've seen it. Everything was new. the weeping angels were everywhere, and Rory witnesses his own death. I tried too hard to make sure I didn't cry, but I couldn't stop myself. When we reached the end, and River was telling her mother goodbye, I was sobbing. I loved Amy and Rory more than anyone else, and to see them die was hard. I could tell Benedict was trying real hard not to shed a tear, which made me laugh. When the episode ended, I was crying really hard. Benedict took one look at me and started laughing really hard.
"Hey don't laugh at me. I told you it was sad!" I exclaimed.
"I know I know, but you look so cute!" Benedict said.
"Stop looking at me!" I said laughing as Benedict handed me a tissue. I put my head on his shoulder and I examined him. He had a beautiful combination of eyes colors, and he had razor sharp cheekbones, and a beautiful jawline. His lips were pink, and looked really soft. His face just comes together into one beautiful Benedict Cumberbatch. Benedict turned around and saw me staring and I smiled.
"Enjoying the view?" He asked, smirking.
"More or less, yes I am." I said laughing. We stared into each other's eyes for what felt like a lifetime, when Benedict slowly leaned in, and stole a kiss. The kiss was soft, and sweet and it lingered on my lips. I couldn't help but touch my lips when the kiss broke. "Oh god, I'm so sorry." Benedict said. I laughed in response. Is he apologizing for kissing me?
"No, it's okay. It just took me by surprise, that's all. I liked it." I responded innocently. Yeah. Innocent right? You want him. Just admit it to yourself Irene said. I'm not sure about it yet. Do I really want him?
"Well, I'm sure you wouldn't mind if I did it again?" He said. Did he just ask to kiss me? Should I let him? I think I should. I mean, why not? I don't see the harm in it.
"No. Not at all." I responded smiling. Benedict leaned in for the kiss, and when he did, I felt like I was melting. The kiss was soft and sweet and ever so gentle, but filled with lust and longing. I decided to kiss back. And when I did, he smiled and intensified the kiss. It wasn't soft and sweet anymore. Oh no, it was hard and I never kissed someone like this before. He liked my bottom lip, asking for entrance to my mouth, and I allowed him. He spent what felt like hours exploring each other's mouths. Our tongues having a battle against each other. I liked it, and apparently so did Irene, because she was cheering me on with a full on cheerleader costume and pompoms. When the kiss broke, I smiled, but I wanted more. I wanted to feel him. The first time, I wanted someone, and that someone is Benedict Cumberbatch.
"Again," I whispered.
"Pardon?" Benedict asked.
"Again. Kiss me again." And he did exactly that. He grabbed my face and slammed it into his, kissing me like his life depended on it. He started to kiss me on my neck, and a moan escaped my lips. I could feel his smile on my neck, and I moved it to the side more, to give him more access. He started moving up to my earlobe and he started sucking and licking it. He bit on it and I let out a moan. He laid me down on the couch, and got on top of me, still kissing me. All of a sudden, my phone rings. I grab my phone, and I see it's Lily. I get up, giving Benedict a sorry look, and I walked upstairs into the bedroom.
"Hey Lily!"
"SALMA. HOW ARE YOU FEELING? ARE YOU OKAY? IS BENEDICT TAKING CARE OF YOU?" lily said screaming on the phone.
"YES, Yes, I'm fine. Benedict is taking very good care of me, actually."
"Oh okay, that's good. Is it really true that you wanted to stay with Benedict?"
"Yes it is. I was scared and shaken up and I was really tired. I felt safe in his arms and I didn't want to leave him."
"Well, I'm glad to know you're okay. So tell me, did you really /stay with him/?" Lily asked.
"NO. well, I was about to, but then you called. Thank goodness you did, I didn't really feel ready anyway."
"REALLY? SHIT I ALWAYS CALL AT THE WRONG TIME. I TRIED CALLING YOU 4 TIMES ALREADY AND NOW YOU PICK UP?"
"Calm down, Lily. I was planning on calling you anyway. And plus, Benedict is an AMAZING kisser. I wouldn't know the difference, but he seems so skilled."
"Oooo, I'm sure he does. I heard your sweet talk last night, when did you learn how to be sexy?"
"I don't know honestly. But I like it." "Who are you, and what have you done with my best friend?"
"She's still here. I'm going to be home soon!" I said laughing. "Are you still going to "do" him?" Lily asked.
"No, I'll keep him waiting."
"Oooooo, men love that. See you later!"
"Bye." I went back downstairs to find Benedict laughing.
"What's so funny?" I asked.
"Oh nothing, by the way. Thanks for the compliments on my kissing. You're not that bad yourself." Shit. He heard the conversation! I could feel my cheeks flush scarlet.
"Shit. You heard that?"
"Lilys pretty loud on the phone."
"Anyway, I have to go. To be continued."
"Really? Okay. Can I at least have your number?"
"Sure. Here, put your number in, and give me your phone." I said giving him my phone. When he gave me his phone, I told him I'll be right back, and that I had a surprise for him. I went into the room, and I punched my phone number in, and I added myself as a contact. Since I know Benedict likes to text a lot, I decided to change his text tone for me. I press the record button, and I recorded a moan, and I saved into his phone. I went back into the living area and took my phone to send him a message.
"What's the surprise?" Benedict asked.
"You'll see." I said sending him a text message. Once I pressed send, I felt excited. The moan tone went off, and he looked at his phone.
"Oh you are clever. "To be continued. Lets have dinner."" Benedict said reading the message out loud. He looked up, and he saw me laughing. "You're smart. I like it. Stay, let's finish what we started." Benedict said, almost begging.
"Ah ah ah, no sex till after the first date. Text me the details." I said giving Benedict a goodbye kiss, making sure it lingered on his lips, and I ran out the door.
