I took off my bow tie and threw it to the ground. Then I took off my jacket. I unbuttoned my shirt and Beth watched me, her breasts rising and falling under that tight black dress.
When I ripped my shirt off, I moved towards her. She whipped around, turning her back to me. That was where the dress’ zip was. Slowly, with my hot breath falling on her nape, I tugged the zip all the way down till her dress started to fall around her.
Beth’s skin was covered in goosebumps. I reached down and softly kissed her spine. She moaned and moved her shoulder blades. I pulled the dress off her and spun her around to me again.
Through the black lace bra, I could see her pebbled rosy pink nipples. I wanted them in my mouth.
I took off her lingerie. First I took off her bra, and while I squeezed and kneaded her breasts, I took off her panties too. Beth was naked. She was all naked for me in that perfectly delicious body, with that chestnut hair falling around her shoulders in a Bohemian mess.
She was the most beautiful woman I had seen.
Beth held my hand and led me to the large double bed in the middle of the hotel room.
I kissed her then, grabbing her by her waist and pushing my tongue down her mouth. My fingers were in her hair. Her hands were all over me. While I kissed her, she reached for my cock, pushing my pants down so she could hold me.
Her hand on my throbbing growing cock was explosive. I kissed her even more wildly, and she seemed to sink into me. Her lips seemed to pulsate. She stroked my cock up and down.
I needed to be inside her right now.
Pulling my mouth away from her, I pushed her gently so that she fell back on the bed. She giggled, there was a smile on her face, and I thought about what I wouldn’t give to see her smiling like that all the time. It was as if we were drawn together by force. It was so strange to me that I felt like I wanted to know everything about her. I wanted her close to me, and I couldn't imagine her away from me. I felt like I wanted to protect her and show her off all at the same time. But right now, I was consumed by wanting her in my bed.
I followed her down on the bed, kissing her cheeks and her neck. She wriggled under me, rolling her hips in anticipation. My mouth found her breasts, and I kissed both of her nipples. Then I sucked her left nipple first and then her right. I squeezed her breasts and flicked the other nipple while I sucked on one.
Beth was gasping. She threw her head back, had her eyes pressed close, and she moaned as I continued to suck. I could feel the warmth and wetness of her pussy between her legs.
With one hand, I slipped my finger into her pussy, while I continued to pleasure her sensitive pebbled nipples. She gasped again. Her eyes flew open.
“Vince…what are you doing to me?” she groaned, and I sucked on her breasts even harder.
She wriggled under me, thrusting her hips upwards more and more. I slipped a second finger in, and I could feel the tightness of her pussy, expanding and growing and swelling with every push. She was ready for my cock. She was slippery wet in her juices.
I drew my mouth away from her. Beth seemed to be in a daze. Her eyes were glazed over, and her mouth was hanging open.
She reached for my cock again, and I was forced to pull my fingers out of her.
“I want you inside me when I come,” she said, in a hoarse sultry voice.
In the next moment, her mouth was on my cock. She gagged at first but then her throat adjusted to my size and she smiled. She held back her hair as she moved up and down on my cock, my whole length and I could feel myself begin to spasm with pleasure.
I held her by the top of her head in position. Beth’s precious pink mouth wrapped tightly around the tip of my cock. Nothing had felt this good before. Fuck! What was happening to me?
Why did every moment with her seem like a first-time experience?
Had I not been living before this?
When I thought I was about to come. I pulled her away from my cock.
I growled and flipped her around on her front. She got on her knees as I climbed on top of her. My body covered her soft, delicate body. I took her from behind. My cock thrust into her pussy, pushing the folds apart.
Once I was inside her, I was like a machine. My cock pounded into her while Beth moaned.
The bed was shaking as I pushed and thrust. I was holding her down by her shoulders, and she was pressed up against my chest. I could feel every shape and contour of her body while I rammed into her.
Beth moved and rolled her hips. It felt like the sexiest thing in the world too. God! Everything this woman did was a charm.
I knew I was going to cum soon. It felt like the first time I had ever been with her, even though I’d taken her just the night before.
As I pounded her, she moaned and said my name repeatedly. Hearing my name coming from her mouth triggered me on. I felt myself jerk. I was going to cum.
We moaned together, and I held back, waiting to see her come first.
Slap slap slap.
Our bodies slapped together until finally, after one loud shriek, Beth released herself. I felt her coming in jerks, and it was the most fulfilling experience to feel Beth cum while I was inside her.
I came quickly right after her, filling her up. My seed shot straight into her while she was still cuming. I growled out her name, "Beth" and she moaned as we came together.
I wrapped my arms around her, covering her torso and keeping her pinned to myself tightly. We moved together, then we came together until finally, I was done and I felt her body go limp too.
When I released her, she sank into the bed, and I crashed down beside her.
We were panting, staring up at the ceiling together as we lay side by side. I was too out of breath for the first few moments to say anything, but there was so much I wanted to say.
For a while, I held her close to me, and we just were comfortable staring into each other's eyes. I knew when I looked at her that nothing would ever be the same for me again. I brushed her hair off of her cheek and gently placed it behind her ear and then I moved in to kiss her slowly.
Then, after I caught my breath, I started to talk to her. I wanted to get to know her. I wanted to know everything about her. I don't know why. I'd never wanted to know about a girl before. So I started asking her questions, and I began to learn about the kind of woman that Beth was. She was smart, and she could probably teach me a thing or two. I could also tell that she was such a strong woman and she usually got what she wanted. God, it was so sexy for a woman to be so strong and yet have a side of her that I still wanted to protect. Man, I just couldn't get enough of her.
Beth was looking up too, blinking, her breasts heaving. Then she turned to me, her eyes were bleary, I noticed that. She gulped like her throat had gone dry, and I saw a sudden panic in her eyes.
“Beth…” I said because I knew she was going to get up. She was convinced we had done something wrong. She sat up with a shot in bed.
“I can’t…this shouldn’t have…I just can’t!”
She muttered those words and jumped out of bed. I watched with confusion as she ran to the bathroom and banged the door shut.
What the actual fuck was going on?
Chapter 13
Beth
I needed to get out of there because I was sure I was going to break into tears at any moment. I couldn’t keep lying there beside Vince, and allow him to see me cry! That would be disastrous.
So, now, I was in the bathroom, just a few feet away from him and hunched down on the floor with my back to the door. I wasn’t crying yet, but I could feel the tears bubbling up inside me.
Everything felt like a mess. I didn’t know how I would get myself out of this one. Tonight was beautiful. Meeting his friends was beautiful, getting to see a different side to Vince was lovely and warm, and the sex was beyond words. I hadn’t planned to invite him to my room. It happened out of the blue, and I didn’t regret it. I had worked so hard and been successful to get to the position that I was at in the field of public
relations. It wasn't uncommon for me to work with celebrities. I didn't want to ruin my reputation.
I just knew that there was nowhere to go from here, and that was the feeling that was making me want to cry.
He knocked on the bathroom door some moments later, snapping me out of my thoughts abruptly.
“Hey, Beth, are you okay in there?”
He sounded genuinely worried. Why wouldn’t he be concerned? Just moments after we had the best sex of my life and then had probably the best conversation I'd ever had with a guy, I jumped out of bed and stormed into the bathroom, locking myself in. I didn’t blame him if he thought I was crazy.
“I’m fine. You should go!” I shouted back.
I couldn’t move. My limbs refused to budge. I was stuck there, and I wanted him to leave so I could cry in peace.
“Whatever’s going on, Beth, I’m sure if you just come out, we can talk about it,” he called out.
Something else I wasn’t expecting from him was that he wanted me to open up to him more. I wasn't used to being vulnerable. It's what helped me to get where I was in life. I just thought if I let him know too much about how I was feeling, I might get hurt. I couldn't risk that, and I didn't want to risk my career over a guy who might not really take me seriously.
“Vince, I just think you should leave. This was a mistake.”
“Yeah, you’ve said that before. And okay, I get it. It’s spontaneous and feels wrong. But I can’t think of a reason why it has to be this way.”
What did he want from me?
How was I supposed to explain to a guy like him that I wasn’t capable of sustaining casual relationships? I knew that I came across as confident and strong, but I was afraid to let anyone know that with matters of the heart I could be vulnerable. I was too scared to put myself out there for a man who didn’t want something serious.
“Please, Vince…”
“Just try me, tell me what’s going on. I mean, we’re having fun, right? Why do we have to storm out on each other every time we have sex?”
“Vince, you need to go. I can’t…right now.”
“I think I deserve to know why though. I’ll go if you want me to, but I want to know why you keep doing this.”
Then there was silence between us. I could picture him on the other side, naked. I knew he was standing there with his handsome body damp from the sweat of sex, and his brown eyes glittering with passion. I resisted just throwing the door open and falling into his arms again.
“Beth!” he shouted my name and banged on the door.
“I was going to get married!” I screamed back. Then there was silence on the other side again just like I predicted.
“What did you just say?” I heard him ask, several moments later.
“I was engaged to this guy, Ned. I had been dating him for nearly a year, and he asked me to marry him. We were planning a wedding,” I replied.
Now the tears came. I tried not to sob as I spoke. At least with just the tears rolling down my cheeks, Vince wouldn’t know if I was crying or not.
“Why didn’t you marry him?” he asked in a somber voice.
“Because I found out he was cheating on me with his secretary. I found the texts just two weeks before the wedding.”
I hadn’t talked about Ned or the wedding in a long time. Even with Suzy and Gia, we just avoided the subject because they knew I still hadn’t recovered.
“How long ago was this?”
“Eleven months,” I replied, gulping down the tears that were choking me now. Vince was silent again.
Before he could speak, I decided to do the deed.
“I’m sorry Vince. I know I’m making this way more complicated than it should be. I know you’re just looking for some light, breezy fun, and I’m like a dark cloud raining on your parade. It’s just that I can’t…I can’t do casual right now. In fact, I can’t do anything. I can’t trust anyone.”
I managed to wipe my cheeks and sit up straight by now.
“What makes you think you know what I want, Beth?”
“Exactly. I don’t, because I don’t know you like you don’t know me. This was supposed to be a one-night stand in Miami. I was supposed to forget about it and move on, but now this keeps happening. I can’t keep doing this,” I explained.
I heard Vince sigh. He took in a deep breath, and I imagined him squaring his shoulders.
“I’ll go like you want me to, but I want you to know, Beth, that I might be a player and sometimes just plain rude, but I’m not a cheater. I’m not a liar.”
I knocked my forehead on the door for whatever reason. Maybe it was because we just had sex and I realized I had feelings for him but I believed what he said. I felt that Vince wouldn’t knowingly deceive me. But then again, what did I know?
“I’m sorry, Vince, I just can’t do this right now,” I repeated.
“Goodnight, Beth. Hope you sleep well,” I heard him say.
I could sense that he had stepped away from the door. A few moments later, I heard the room’s door shut, and slowly, I opened it and peeked out. The room was empty. Vince was gone. Now I wished he hadn’t left.
I didn’t bother wiping the tears anymore because I had nobody to hide them from anymore.
Chapter 14
Vince
It was "Fathers’ Day Out," which meant that all the boys brought their kids along. Nowadays, we weren’t hitting the bar at a godforsaken hour on a Friday night anymore. We usually met up on Saturday mornings at the park when we got some time to ourselves, while the girls hung out together at yoga and had brunch.
Sawyer, Isaac, and Cliff had their kids on their arms, while I carried the bags with the diapers and the milk bottles. Basically, I was the caddy.
The night before at Beth’s hotel room, I finally felt like I knew what I wanted. I wanted her. This morning, just a few hours after I last saw her I didn’t know if that was going to work out. She didn’t want me.
I told the guys what happened, even though I wasn’t comfortable with sharing Beth’s secret with other people. But it wasn’t exactly a secret, and I told my friends everything.
We were keeping an eye on the kids while they played in the sandbox. Isabel was too little to play by herself, so she was being passed around between us, and we tried to keep her entertained.
“So you think she’s done a runner on you?” Isaac asked while he cooed at Isabel, blinking his eyes rapidly to excite her. It was a funny sight. My friends who could never be tied down by a woman, just a few years ago, now knew exactly how to keep a newborn entertained. I didn’t see that one coming in a million years.
So much had changed in the past five years.
I was actually moaning about a woman to them. The unthinkable had happened!
“Just give it some time, man. This happened last night. Nobody knows for sure if she’s done a runner or not!” Sawyer exclaimed.
I sat back on the bench, running my hand through my hair in frustration.
“Maybe it’s a good thing if she’s gone,” I said. I could see the others snap their heads around to look at me.
“Just a few minutes ago, you said sex with her was the best sex of your life. Let me tell you if that’s how you feel about a woman, from personal experience I know this, it means somethin’,” Cliff said.
I shook my head.
“Yeah, the sex was great, and we have fun together, but she was engaged less than a year ago. She was going to marry some other fucking dude!” I groaned. I could sense the others exchanging looks. Were they worried about me now?
“It’s over. It’s done. That guy was an asshole. He cheated on her. There’s no way she has feelings for him!” Sawyer said.
“I’m not worried that she does. I’m just worried that I want something from her she can’t give me,” I explained. Cliff nodded and then thumped my back.
“The taste of your own medicine is always bitter. How many women from your past could say the same story about you?” Sawyer said. He had a p
oint. For the first time, things had turned topsy-turvy in my world.
“So, what am I supposed to do?”
Isaac shrugged his shoulders, while he passed Isabel to Cliff again.
“You have to win her trust, make her see the guy we know and not the guy who’s developed a bad rap with women,” he said.
I shook my head.
“I have no idea how to do that. I don’t even know where to begin. I mean clearly, she has trust issues with men and specifically, men like me. How am I supposed to get past that?”
“What do you want, Vince? What do you really want from her?” Sawyer asked. I clenched my jaw and sucked in my gut.
“I don’t know.”
Cliff rolled his eyes.
“I don’t know! Fuck! I have no idea what I want from her, or what I want in general. I thought I was happy and satisfied and everything was working just fine until Beth came along. Miami was one thing. We were drunk, and even though I thought about her a lot, I figured that would pass.”
“And then she came here…” Isaac interjected.
“And now I can’t get her out of my head. I feel like she’s changing my life and I don’t know how to fucking feel about it.”
I was snapping.
I stood up from the bench and went over to the sandbox. I needed a moment to myself. I was realizing now, that playing with Evie and Oscar calmed me. They didn’t judge me. They didn’t ask me personal questions. And yet, I had their unwavering trust and their unconditional love.
My friends remained where they were on the bench, while I played with the kids. I knew they were talking about me and how I was never going to find happiness like I was. They were talking about how they were worried about me too.
I didn’t need them to worry them, and I certainly didn’t fucking need their pity!
Now I was regretting telling them anything about Beth. I shouldn’t have said a word.
I had no idea what was going to happen next. In a few days, our one week trial period would be over. Was she going to stay or go? Was I supposed to call her or wait for her to call me?
