“We’re regulars so we raise our hands and get our drinks delivered. Alice will add a delivery charge on our card, but we go with it.” Right on cue, Alice brings me my Jack and Coke, Maddie’s Long Island iced tea, and Macy’s beer plus three shots of tequila. I shrug as we down the shots.
“So, this is where the party is?” a beautiful woman with the same piercing blue eyes and blonde hair asks as she snuggles up to the boys. “The girls are upset that they are not the center of your world. I tried to tell them that that is mine and Quinn’s spot, but they left.”
“They were boring anyway. All they did was take selfies and post them on Facebook. I mean, really, how many pictures of yourself do you need to have?” Tucker’s over-exaggeration of his hands and posing for his hand like a cell phone has us cracking up laughing.
“A lot,” Macy, Maddie, the blonde and I say all together. We all start laughing.
“I’m Savannah, the sister to these three knuckleheads and my husband, Steven.” We all introduce ourselves. “Speaking of the selfie. Tucker, hold the phone. Come on, everyone, picture time.” We all get together and Rhett pulls me close to him. I smile as he tries to look at the camera but ends up staring at me instead. “Thanks. All right, numbers so I can send this to all.” The four of us exchange numbers and show each other stuff on our phones, laughing about silly things. The guys decide they were going to go to the bar to get refills and more shots. Savannah looks around to see where they are.
“Which one has my brother’s attention?” Maddie points to me. I gulp, nervous about what she has to say.
“Don’t be so nervous. He is a big boy and can have fun. Be honest with him, don’t lead him on.”
“Oh, I won’t. We’re moving on Sunday and just having fun. Flirting, dancing, and kissing.” Savannah gives me this knowing look, and I blush.
Wesley hands me another shot as everyone meets back to the table. “Quinn and Mark are heading to a different bar with the minions.” He shrugs.
“I’m sorry. Why don’t you guys go with them? I don’t want to cause problems,” I sheepishly say.
“Don’t worry about it. Quinn’s friends are boring as fuck, and I do not really want to go to a dance club where it’s techno.”
“Oh, they are going to Rave.” I crinkle my nose. “We couldn’t go anyway. Maddie and I are banned from there,” I say as I sip on my drink. Maddie and I bust out laughing.
“Charlie and I were dancing with a group. This guy, close your eyes and imagine if you will, slicked-back jet-black hair, toothpick in his mouth, gold chain with a floral shirt half buttoned up. The black curls of his chest hair poking out.” I see the guys shiver with their eyes closed, and I can’t help but laugh.
“He wraps his hands around my waist and then Maddie’s. He tugs us close to him, and he smells like sardines and pickle juice. He asks if we wanted a good time; he had a fantasy of twins. I took the heel of my boot and slammed it onto his foot. Then Maddie hit his nose as he was hunched over. How were we supposed to know that creepy guy was the co-owner with his wife?” Everyone is cracking up.
“We told his wife what he said, but she believed him. We were kicked out and told never to come back. It’s a sucky club anyway.”
We spend the next hour talking, and Savannah says it’s time to dance so we all head down to the floor. Tonight is turning out to be a lot of fun.
Rhett
I am having so much fun with my brothers, sister, and Charlie. I can’t believe how well we all mesh together. Every time I ask about her moving, she changes the subject. I don’t understand why she is so private. I know the stalker comment, but I wouldn’t hunt her down. I don’t think I would. Charlie does have this effect on me. I decide to get off the dance floor and check on Macy, who is looking around the bar for someone.
“Man, these girls are going to kill us with their dancing.”
“Ha-ha, you have no idea. When Charlie isn’t in the kitchen cooking, she would be in a dance studio. She said that she needs it with all the food she eats.”
“She loves to cook?”
“Oh, yeah, she traveled the world to work with some amazing chefs when she got her culinary degree. I hope she opens a restaurant up someday.”
“Are you guys ready for your big move on Sunday?” I ask, and Macy quickly stands to attention.
“Nope, sorry big boy, not telling you. We were sworn to secrecy.” I laugh.
“Can’t blame me for trying.” I wink at her. “But without giving away details, are you excited and ready for it?”
“Almost. I have to get the U-Haul truck tomorrow and then start loading it. I think that is the part that is going to suck the most, all the lifting and walking.”
“We can help on Sunday. We’re pretty strong guys.” I flex my muscles at her, and she rolls her eyes. “Tough crowd.”
“Wrong equipment, I prefer the catcher’s mitt.” My jaw opens, and she uses her finger to close my mouth. “Never met a hot lesbian before?”
“Wait, you’re a lesbian?” Tucker walks up to the table and Macy nods. “Hang on.” Tucker holds up a finger, closes his eyes. “Oh, that is hot.” Macy and I look at each other.
“Okay, weirdo, what is hot?” Macy is the first to ask.
“I just pictured you, Maddie, and Charlie, together. Holy fuck! I’m in love.” I shake my head and start to apologize. Macy does something that I never thought would happen.
“We do have sleepovers together, like when we were in college.” Macy walks away and kisses both girls making sure Tucker is watching.
“I think I’m in love.” Everyone is laughing because Macy was talking to the girls.
“Now, if I did that I would get de-nutted,” I say to Charlie when she comes to stand next to me.
“Well, I’ve seen her naked.”
“Can I see you naked?” I ask her, and she leans into my ear.
“Oh, most definitely.”
She winks at me and walks away. I can’t wait to see what’s under those clothes. I’m staring at her on the dance floor. I turn to take a drink and notice that she isn’t there anymore. I see her retreating to the woman’s bathroom. I decide to take a walk over that way until I’m standing in the shadows of the hallway. I feel like a stalker, but I want to thoroughly surprise her.
Charlie comes out of the bathroom, I’m behind her as I pull on her belt loop. She lets out a yelp, and I cover her mouth with my hand. “Shh, it’s me.” Charlie relaxes in my arms.
“Stalker,” Charlie mumbles through my hand, and I can’t help but smile.
“I wanted to surprise you.” I remove my hand from her mouth and turn her to face me. I snake my hand through Charlie’s hair to her so I can capture her lips. I need to taste her.
“You did. Want to take me here and now?” Charlie whispers.
“I needed to feel you close to me. I would take you here and now if I could.” Charlie looks around and pulls me into the woman’s bathroom.
“Hang on.” Charlie grabs something off the wall and puts it on the door then turns to me. “I put the out of order, sex going on sign.” I push her up against the door and kiss her. I don’t think I have ever had sex in a bathroom, but hey, first time for everything. I move my hands to her ass and slide my hands into her back pockets then squeeze. Charlie instinctively moves her hips, and I know she feels my hardness that needs to be inside her before I combust. We break apart trying to catch our breath. While I’m doing that, I take a look at the bathroom.
The women’s bathroom is really clean compared to the men’s room, but if they have an out of order for sex going on the sign, then I see why they keep it clean. It’s a simple bathroom with a little couch for women to sit and talk while waiting for one of the three stalls to get unoccupied.
I notice that Charlie is standing there chewing on her nails, looking around everywhere but where I am standing. I wonder what she is thinking about right now. I can’t fuck someone I just met and in a bathroom while his posse and my friends are out
there, Come to my mind
“We don’t have to do anything. I mean, I want you so bad that it literally hurts but I would never pressure you into anything,” I tell her as I grab her hands to walk to the couch. “We can sit here and talk, make out like teenagers or walk out the door and dance like fools.” I smile at her. I see that her eyes are wet with tears threatening to fall down her cheeks. I move close to her face, and her eyes close so I kiss each eyelid. “I like being with you.”
“I think I’m more talk than action. I can’t fuck someone I just met and in a bathroom where there is a group of people outside that door.” I smile and stand.
“How about we go get something to eat and then rent a movie. Your place? We can’t go to mine because I am sharing a room with my two brothers.”
“I’m sharing my apartment with my sister, Macy, and Dana.” I sit back down and laugh.
“I think the universe is cock blocking us.”
“I’m sorry.” Charlie’s voice is so small. “Why not rent a room in the hotel?”
“We can do that. Want to do that now? We can order room service.” Charlie nods. We walk out of the bathroom hand in hand.
“Leaving so soon?” Tucker stops us, and Charlie’s face turns red.
“Yes, we’re heading out. I won’t be in the room tonight, but I’ll meet you tomorrow morning.” I slap him on his back as we head out the door.
“You know that he thinks we’re having sex,” Charlie says as soon as we get outside.
“I don’t care what he thinks, but I didn’t want to stand there and explain to him about watching a movie and eating.”
“Are you embarrassed?”
“No, I can go back in there and let them know that we’re not having sex but hanging out.” I smile.
Charlie crinkles her nose, I think it’s her favorite thing to do because she does it a lot, especially when she’s thinking. “When you put it that way … Never mind.” We walk hand in hand to catch a cab. I really hope that the hotel has a room.
Charlotte
Rhett winks at me, and I can’t help but blush. “I want to kiss you; can I kiss you, Charlie?” I nod because I don’t know if I can find the words. Rhett licks his lips as he moves his to meet mine.
“You’re so gentle with me. Thank you for not making fun of me. I’m not usually a one-night stand girl.”
“I never thought that of you. It’s all about your comfort. I could fuck you on this bench and be happy. I want you naked under me in the worst kind of way.”
“Brutally honest, aren’t you?” I sarcastically say while mentally slapping my forehead. This is one of those moments of speaking before stopping myself.. Rhett laughs.
“Sorry, it’s one of my downfalls. I call ‘em as I see ‘em. I mean, we’re going our separate ways on Sunday. We make the most of it and look back on an incredible experience in the vast city of San Fran.”
“Wait, Sunday?” I’m confused because I thought I wouldn’t see him after tonight.
“I volunteered the guys and my service for loading up the truck. We can’t unload it since y’all are so secretive about where you’re going.”
“So, I’ll see you Sunday? Still not telling you.” We climb into the taxi cab and head to his hotel. My knee is bouncing up and down. Why am I so nervous? I’ve slept with guys before so it isn’t that. I keep looking at him, and we laugh when we are looking at the same time. Rhett and I are like a couple of teenagers. He pays the driver, even after I protest.
“I’m paying. I invited you,” Rhett says to me as he walks up to the desk. I don’t hear the conversation as I look around the room. I’ve never been to the Wilson Hotel.
The room is all white with bright-colored furniture and artwork. I make a mental note about talking to Karen about furniture. We don’t have a lot so I need to know if we should buy some before we get there. I walk around to see a fountain in the middle of the room. It’s a fish that is spitting water out, and I couldn’t help but laugh at how stupid it looks and so out of place.
“Ready?” Rhett whispers into my ear. I nod afraid to speak. “They have an on demand feature where we can rent movies from, sadly for Tucker, no porn.” We laugh. I’m tapping my foot waiting for the elevator to take us to our room.
Our room.
What the fuck am I doing? The bell dings, and Rhett’s hand is on my back leading me to the room.
“Nothing is happening tonight; you have my word.” I’m given the key, and I turn to look at him before I open the door.
“I want something to happen, I don’t deny that, but you make me nervous.”
“Why do I make you nervous?” Rhett asks as he places his hands on my hips.
“I don’t know if it’s the never seeing each other again or am I just a girl that will be a notch on your bedpost?”
“Charlie, you are not a notch in anyone’s bedpost. I’m a cowboy, yes, but I’m not like that. And I can tell that you are special. I haven’t been with anyone in months, and I’m clean.”
“Me too,” I say as I take a deep breath as I try to calm my shaky hands, but Rhett puts his hands on mine to help insert the keycard. He turns the doorknob, and the door opens. I’m ushered in by an eager man. “Are you going to kiss me or not?” I say to him, and he gladly grabs me in his arms.
When we first connect, it takes my nervousness away, and I grab his T-shirt in my fists. I start to pull his shirt out of his jeans.
“Are you sure?” Rhett’s voice is soft, and gentleman-like. He doesn’t want me to do anything that I don’t want to, but my body is screaming “take me” while my heart is telling me “run, you’re going to get addicted then crushed.” So, naturally, I listen to my body.
“Come on, Cowboy, make me see stars.”
“Yes, ma’am.” Rhett captures my lips and walks to me the king-size bed covered in an ugly flower bedspread. He sits and I climb onto his lap. Rhett falls back onto the bad and takes me with him at the same time he moves his hands under my shirt. I sit up on the bed so I can easily pull my shirt off. Once I toss my shirt to the ground, I straddle Rhett, bringing my hands up behind me to unclasp my bra. I slowly slide my white straps off my shoulders letting my bra fall off onto his stomach. Rhett is lying there with his hands behind his head, licking his lips and watching every move I make with lust-filled eyes. I toss my shirt and bra onto the floor.
Rhett grabs my hips and flips me in fast movement. I laugh as the room slowly stops spinning. “You weren’t kidding when you said that I would see stars.” Rhett shakes his head.
“Oh, believe me, you haven’t seen the stars I intend for you to see yet.” Rhett captures my nipple in his mouth and groans, “Perfect for my hands,” he mumbles into my breasts. Rhett keeps his hands busy on my breasts, making sure each one has equal time with his teeth, lips, and hands. I feel myself getting wetter, and I need him inside me as soon as possible. I arch my back into him. I swear with him giving all the attention to my nipples, I could come right here. I wonder if he can read my thoughts because he unbuckles my jeans and slides them down to my knees. He slowly removes my wedges. “My fantasy had you wearing heels.”
“Damn, I even had them on but knew I was going to be dancing up a storm. Wait, what fantasy?” Rhett must have decided that I didn’t need to know what his fantasy was because the next thing I feel is my white lace thong and jeans coming completely off.
Rhett looks at me and leans over me, fully clothed, and runs his finger down my cheek. I close my eyes and lean into it. “We can stop at any time you are not comfortable. I never want to force you to do anything.” I grab the back of his neck and pull him down to me, roughly and fast. I think I startled him because he tries to catch himself before crashing onto me.
“Rhett,” I say his name in a breathy tone. Rhett starts to kiss my neck, moving my hair out of the way. Licking a trail from my ear to my clavicle then kissing along that line, I shiver when his breath would reach me before touching me with those full, luscious lips. I think he is tryi
ng to kill me with this torture of licking and kissing every aspect of my body.
Ugh. I have never wanted a man more than I want Rhett, and he is taking his time with me. I feel a cold chill flow through my body when Rhett moves down my body so he is at my belly button.
Rhett
I pat myself on the back in my mind. I can feel Charlie getting frustrated with me. I knew that we would be fast and furious our first time but I wanted to take my time, to worship her body so when another man is with her, she’ll be thinking about me and not him. I can’t believe Charlie would be with someone else. I shake my head as I lay kisses on her belly button. “Focus, Rhett,” My inner voice chastises. I need to be here in the present not the future.
“You doing okay, darlin’?” I ask her as I rest my chin on her stomach, inhaling her scent. She is so wet and ready for me. My fingers are itching to feel how wet so I can taste her.
“Never better.” Charlie looks at me with a haze over her sparkling eyes. I can get lost in her eyes. My body slinks down lower, and I’m on my knees on the floor while her knees and legs are dangling off the bed. I notice that Charlie is singing to herself and moving her fingers like she’s playing the piano. Charlie’s nervous so I better speed up things before she changes her mind. I grab her right foot into my hands and start to massage her feet. She is a waitress, and I bet never takes care of them. Charlie wiggles and moans, “Oh right there. Oh, my God, that is heavenly. Please don’t stop.” She just gave me a glimpse into what an orgasm will be for her. I make sure to give equal opportunity to both feet. I slide my hands up her legs and thighs, give her thighs kisses.
I let go of the breath I was holding when I am face to face to with her pussy. I use my tongue to lick her up and down. I find her clit and kiss it. I slide a finger into her, and I groan into her pussy—this is pure heaven. I decide to add another finger as I swiftly use my tongue on her clit. My fingers are moving in and out of her rapidly, keeping pace with my tongue. Charlie isn’t going to last long as I already feel her start to tighten around my fingers. I slide a third finger in and continue the fast movements. Charlie is squirming, and chanting, “Oh, God,” over and over again. I nibble on her clit for a couple of seconds, and that is her undoing as she sits up, trying to kick me away from her as I replace the fingers with my tongue to drink up every last drop of her. Charlie surprises me by crossing her legs, raising her hips to make sure that I don’t miss anything.
