Snuggled in his arms would have been a perfect time to strike. He was emotionally weak but the downside is that I was as well. Just figuring out the life you almost had could do that to a girl

I didn't know the reason for the car crash, maybe I didn't want to. Who's personality did I get? Where did my smarts come from? I needed to get my mind off all this before my brain ruptured.

"Why do you always wear a mask?"

"...why?"

"I was just wondering." I studied him and the perplexed look he was giving me. When I didn't get a reply, I peeled his mask off and pout it on. It was strange feeling, the material clung to your face like it was part of it, but when you reached up to touch the mask, it didn't feel like the surrounding skin.

"I ah...guess it's just comfortable, now give it back!" I slapped his hand away with a small smile playing around my mouth.

I got off his lap, trying to regain some feeling back into my legs and shuffled into my room. Hearing him huff from the next room I smirked. Maybe I wouldn't do it tonight, maybe I should wait- before I could finish the thought my eyes spotted a tube of lipstick lying on the ground. I raised my eyebrow. Did I have one that color? Did I have any at all? After picking it up, I removed the cap and twisted it up. An alluring light pink color. I wasn't usually one for makeup, but this tone was just so vibrant. I didn't remember buying this...well it had to be mine, he wasn't harboring other women in here. Hopefully.

Going up to a mirror on the dresser, I smeared some on to test the color, my eyes widened. I dropped the lipstick and doubled over, not from pain but lust. Severe, unrequited lust. This was bad, very, very bad. Ivy must have "dropped" something when she was last over here. My fingers bent into claw like shapes, and I bent my head as something took control of my brain.

"G-good grief" I stumbled backward, my hand dragging along the shelf, knocking a few things over accidentally.

"Beth? Whats going on in there?"

My mouth watered at the sound of his voice as I narrowed my eyes.

'Oh no, not him, no way in hell.' But I was already targeting where he was from the sound of his voice. Like a lioness ready to pounce I flung the door wide. He yanked his eyebrow up, a hand raised to knock again. He took in my disheveled state, hair in my eyes and a feral expression on my face causing his other eyebrow to raise.

"What on earth happened to y-

I was such a fucking idiot.

In less than a second I was pressed against him. Staring up into his divine features, I let it sink in how close our faces were before crushing my lips to his, desperate for contact.

He didn't react for a few seconds, then his arms were around me, pulling me to him tighter. I let my fingers tangle themselves thoroughly in his auburn locks and tug gently, causing a guttural growl to come from his mouth and into mine.

Another blinding surge of lust made itself known as my lower back collided with his desk. The keyboard was hurriedly pushed aside to make room for me when the whole room tilted a very strange fashion. Our breaths grew heavier at the prospect of what the hell was going to happen sunk in. I still felt the need to tease him just a bit, I was only human. And right now this human was feeling uncharacteristically...horny?

I pulled my lips away, gasping for air as I slid my hands slowly down his black silk shirt.

"How long has it been, Eddie?" I whispered into his ear breathlessly. "One?" The first button. "Two?" The second. "Three years or more?" My hands were unsure, but they continued down leaving a trail of bare skin behind. I let my hands wander around his warm waist, taking in flesh I hand never experienced.

I peeked up and grinned at the look he was giving me. The teasing seemed to bounce right off him in this state. His eyes shot through mine with an intensity that left my already empty lungs flat as my heart seemed to expand. I stared up, mesmerized at the way they seemed to sparkle at the tiniest glimpse of light and still be as hard as brick, always calculating, always observing. My head lolled sideways when I felt something pass through me, like I was a crumbling wall almost. Every nerve in my body was amplified to the point of if he were to touch any bare skin on me, it would feel like something twice as intimate. My head was pressed into a screen as he lurched forward to kiss me again. His hand ascended my thigh, causing a moan to involuntarily slip out.

A truly wicked smirk came into play as he bent his head to my throat, letting his teeth scrape down to my collarbone. I clenched my jaw shut too keep from exclaiming again when the tip of his tongue slid over the thin flesh at the nape, nipping at just the right points to make the feeling in my stomach tighten. The hand previously on my thigh rode under my shirt, resting on my hip. I felt his fingers flex, pressing into the skin on my waist for a nanosecond. A small explosion took place in my brain, causing me to jolt forward and yelp violently at the sensation zinging through my hips. My head rolled this way and that as his lips set to work on my neck again.

Everything seemed in tilt a whirl vision for a second, then I was pressed against a brick wall, my legs wrapped around his waist for support as he knocked on a few, kissing me so passionately I was surprised I could coherently form thoughts together. The wall caved in behind me but my fall was cushioned by what could only be his personal bed.

I was going to kill Ivy in the morning.
