His hands moved onto me and though he’d grabbed the loofah, he didn’t seem to be using it. Instead I could feel his slippery hands on my back and then wrapping around me to get a handful of tits. I moaned as his fingers tweaked my nipple, long since forgetting that we weren’t supposed to be doing this. I wasn’t able to stop it and I didn’t want to.
Frank moved over my body slowly, making sure that every inch of me was as slippery as his hands were. I was ready to lose my mind. I couldn’t help it. He just felt so damn good. I was going to lose it. What happened to no funny business? Had I really believed it as I was saying it?
His hands were magical, they always had been and soon I was leaning back on his wet, hard body and my mind was gone. I was wet, not from the water cascading down on me, but from the fluid that was flowing between my legs. I needed him, badly and the more he touched me, the more I was ready to give into his demands. His hard length slid through my legs and I could see it coming out the other side. He groaned behind me and I tipped my ass up a little so that the next time he pushed through my legs, instead of going through, he went inside of me
Frank groaned behind me and played with my breasts as he pumped in and out of me. I felt stretched and needed more of him. I leaned forward, bracing myself against the tiles of the shower as Frank started to push deeper and faster. He was winding me up quickly and the quick shower was turning into something else. It was hot in there. I was burning up and then the next minute I was exploding, calling out his name before I could stop myself. He just felt so damn good.
He wasn’t too far behind me and he bit my shoulder as he filled me with his hot seed. It was all just too much for me and before I knew it, I was wobbly on my legs. It was more than I could have imagined. Everything with Frank was just more. I knew then that I was going to have to limit myself. This wasn’t supposed to happen and every time he held me and was inside of me, I lost a little more of the resistance. It was the only thing that was going to keep me sane.
I started to get out of the shower and he told me that he wasn’t finished.
“My legs are about to give out Frank. I can’t.”
He chuckled at me. “We have to wash your hair, don’t we?”
I had forgotten about my hair. In truth, I’d forgotten what I was even in the shower for. Once his hands got on my body, there really was nothing else that I could do. I can’t think when he’s close and the more he touched me, the worst it got.
“Why don’t you rinse off and I will finish my hair?” Truth was, if he didn’t, I knew we were going to go to round two. I didn’t have the energy to tell him no and I certainly didn’t have the want to. I wanted him to touch me, taste me and if he didn’t get out of the shower soon, I was never going to get on with my day. This was what Frank did to me and it was hard for me to get around it. He’d always been my downfall and it was no different now.
He chuckled at me, like he knew why I was saying that and why I was so determined to get him away from me. Frank wasn’t unaware of his talent. He was quite sure of them and that was the hardest part of all. He knew what he did to me and I was sure that he made it worse on purpose.
Frank tried to pull me to him and I stopped him. “I’m serious, rinse off and get out. We’ll never leave the shower and I have things to do today. I can’t be here with you all day.”
About that time, we heard someone at the door. I figured that it was Racen. He said he was going to be in early yesterday and I knew that he was going to be back with a few friends to clean up and work on painting up the clubhouse. I didn’t want to be caught like this, so I kicked him out with a towel still around him. Frank wanted to act like he was upset about it, but I knew he wasn’t. He’d gotten his way after all.
I heard talking when Frank left the bathroom and I would have recognized that voice anywhere. I knew who it was, and it made it all the worst.
“What’s up Justin? I thought that you had to work today?”
“It’s technically a holiday, so I’m off work. I tried to call you, but you didn’t answer.”
Frank was stuttering a little bit.
“Just thought I would stop by and see how the work was coming along. I need help at the warehouse if you want to go down there with me.”
“Sure, in a bit. I have lost my girlfriend and I can’t find her. She hasn’t been home in a couple of nights now. Have you seen Gemma? I know that you two were close before.”
“Well, I have seen her.”
It was then that I heard a loud commotion and I wasn’t sure what it was about. I heard Justin’s words and knew that he’d found something of mine, indicating that I was here.
“Are those her shoes?”
Again, Frank didn’t know what to say and he was stumbling on his words. The more I tried to ignore the exclamation that he had to give, the more I knew I had to get out of the shower. Was I supposed to stay in here or not? If I came out now, he was going to know that I was in the shower. Since Frank was wet as well, Justin would quickly put it together that we were in there together.
I didn’t know what to do and I just froze with the water off and waited to hear anything that would give me an indication of what I was supposed to do next. I was mentally trying to get Frank to get Justin out of there, but now that he found my shoes, it wasn’t long before he was clearly finding more of my things here.
“Is she staying here? With you?”
“No, it’s not like that Justin. She came to me after the party and told me that she needed a place to stay. I’ve known Gemma for a long time. She was upset, so of course I gave her a place to stay. I don’t know what happened at the party, but she was very hurt and upset. Do you know what happened?”
Justin was quiet, not saying a word. It made sense for him not to admit to banging Sandra. Part of the problem was that it was Frank’s sister. Justin probably didn’t want to piss Frank off. He was the president after all, in charge of it all, not to mention that he was rather scary when he wanted to be.
“Is she here now?”
I waited for the answer. My heart was beating rapidly in my chest and I wasn’t sure what he was going to say. Was he going to rat me out? It was no secret that Frank wanted to be together, but did that mean that he was going to tell Justin what was going on. I didn’t know if I wanted him to or not. I still wasn’t ready to talk to Justin. That’s why I was avoiding him like the plague.
“Let me just grab my clothes and then we’ll go to the warehouse.”
“Okay, but if you see Gemma, will you let me know? I really want to talk to her. I don’t know what happened. She just took off.”
“Well girls usually have a reason.”
It was Frank’s way of fishing and I wondered if Justin was going to admit it. When he didn’t, I knew that he never would. If he wouldn’t admit it to his friend, why would he admit it to me? It didn’t make any sense and I about came out of my skin when the bathroom door opened. I was half-expecting that it would be Justin that came in, but I was relieved that it was Frank.
“What are you doing?”
“Getting dressed and then you can come out.”
“I need to get my car, remember?”
“Yeah. Just take Racen’s bike when he gets here and go get your car. I’ll bring him by to get his bike from your place later, okay?”
It was as good of a plan as anything else and the truth of the matter was that I knew it was the only way. I was going to have to figure things out soon with me and Justin, just not yet. I still wasn’t sure how it was all going to work out.
I watched Frank get dressed and he left with Justin not long after that. The cabin was empty, and I could breathe, but it just reminded me of the things that I had to take care of, no matter how badly I just wanted to ignore it all.
This was all a right mess.
Chapter 15
Frank
“So, what’s going on with you and Gemma?”
“Hell, if I know. You k
now how chicks are. They are crazy as hell.”
I knew the reason, but Justin wasn’t copping to it. It sure would make it a lot easier if he’d just come out with it. Then they could break up and I could move in. I already had, but we wouldn’t have to hide it anymore.
“So, you have no idea why she is upset?”
Justin looked at me weird. “Why, do you know something?”
I figured fuck it, let’s get the ball rolling. Let the healing begin.
“I heard something about the night of the party. She walked in on you and my sister.”
Justin’s face paled and it wasn’t just the lack of lighting in the warehouse It was quite obvious that Justin didn’t want me to know abut Sandra. Truth was that I didn’t care either way. I was more worried about Justin getting hurt than my sister. My sister was the type of woman that was a maneater, so I didn’t worry about her. I worried about Justin more because he didn’t know what he was getting into, though I knew what he’d lost.
“I didn’t know that she saw us.”
“Well you were in her bedroom from what I hear, in her bed.”
Justin hung his head and I knew then, that he knew that he’d been found out. It was hard to imagine losing a woman like Gemma. I could see it in his face and in a way, I knew what he was going through. Though I’d left out of fear of some sort, the fact was that when Gemma was out of my life, everything took on a grey look. Nothing was as sunny and bright as it had been before. I knew that I’d messed up as soon as I left Hartford, but the fear of love and what came next made it impossible to go back. I just couldn’t, and I’d regretted it almost every day in one way or another.
The most regret came when I was with another woman. Every time I was with a girl, it was Gemma that I would see in my mind. She was the one that I wanted, and it made it hard to ever get close to anyone else. That’s why everyone knew me as a player, because I couldn’t have what I wanted. It was always Gemma that I’d wanted. No one else. Nothing had changed.
“What am I going to do?”
He was asking a question that wasn’t going to have an answer that he liked. He wanted me to give him an easy way out of it. If there was one, I certainly wasn’t going to tell him about it. I wanted her. I’d lost Gemma before and I wasn’t going to let him swoop in and take her back. He’d fucked up and I’d won. It was all that mattered to me. Gemma was mine now. It was just that simple and the more I thought about it, the more I was glad that it had happened. If not, it would have gotten messy.
“I don’t know man. Gemma isn’t going to forgive that. You know how she feels about cheating. When I was with her, she threatened to cut off appendages if I ever cheated on her. I sort of believe that she would do it. You know how mad she gets.”
That had Justin thinking, and he wondered if that was the reason she’d taken off. While he was trying to track her down, maybe it was for the best.
“Do you love her?”
“You know I do. I was going to ask her to marry me.”
“Not Gemma. I meant my sister.”
I said it like that to remember who it was that he was talking about. I wanted him to reconsider his words. He had just admitted that he was with my sister. It wasn’t like he was going to be able to say that he didn’t care about Sandra. She was my sister after all.
“You know that I’ve always had this thing for your sister and then she just showed up at the party. We got to talking…”
I stopped him with a hand up because I didn’t want to hear the rest. I knew what it was. I had known about the chemistry. That’s what I’d wanted to happen if I was honest with myself. I just didn’t think that it would have worked out as well as it had. He’d taken the bait and now he was trying to find the words to explain it.
“Don’t need to hear about you and my sister. It was just a question. Do you love her?”
He shrugged. “I don’t even know her.”
I sighed, and he looked at me worried. He’d messed up and I think now he was getting how badly he’d done so.
“Well Sandra is my sister. You know that, so I’m not going to say anything about her, but I hate to tell you this, but you messed up. I love Sandra, I really do, but Gemma is a dime.”
Justin knew that. He had to. After a year with Gemma, he should know right off that she was the sort of woman that a man married. I hadn’t done it when I wanted to, and he should have locked her in before he messed up. I didn’t see Gemma forgiving him for that and even though I know that she loves me, I knew that if I cheated, that was it. Had things changed so drastically that Justin thought that he could get away with it? I just didn’t understand, though I really was smiling inside. His loss was my gain. It was just that simple.
“I know she is. Fuck I know. I don’t know what the hell I was thinking. Sandra was just there and she….”
“Seriously, don’t want to hear about my sister.”
Justin didn’t know what to say and I didn’t either. It was all a mess and I was supposed to be the good friend. He’d lost the woman he loved. I knew how that felt, but I also knew that I was going to get her back. I was convinced and all I needed was for him to realize it and move on. I shouldn’t have said anything. Gemma might be pissed, but I was sure that she would work it out and then I would be free to pursue her like I wanted to. Well, like I already was.
My mind went to Gemma at the cabin and I wondered what was going through her head. She had to know that things were going to be weird and though I wasn’t expecting Justin to just pop up like he did, it might have been just what was needed to get us back on track.
“So, what is this warehouse going to be used for?”
It was then that it hit me. I’d been spending so much time, trying to get Gemma to think about us getting back together, that I’d forgotten to tell the second how we were going to make this money. I knew that he wasn’t all that worried about being a criminal, but I had to go through what the plan was. He was going to be helping me execute it after all.
“Gun from Texas and a lot of them. They will be distributed up here and then everything will run better. We can go further north if we want to, but for now, twice a month, we’ll get a large shipment in and they will be stored here.”
“Guns huh?”
I agreed and wondered what he was thinking. I was still thinking about Gemma, unable to cordoned her off in my mind.
“What do you think? It’s better than drugs with a lot higher profit margin and less risk. Each shipment will be muled in three separate trips and the buyers are already lined up.”
“Sounds like you got this all figured out.”
I told him that I did, and he was easing into the idea. I think that money was the main factor for him. Considering I could imagine how low his salary was going to be, I knew that it was going to work out just fine. The club was for many things, but revenue was a big part of it. We were outlaws, but at the end of the day, we had bills like everyone else. When there wasn’t good jobs to have, one had to be made. It’s what I had done in Texas and now I was determined to do it here.
“So, what am I supposed to do about Gemma?”
He was back on her again and he had a pleading look in his eyes. I was torn between helping a friend and the girl I loved. I couldn’t pick Justin out of this and even if I did give him some advice and I try to help him, I really didn’t think that anything I was going to say was going to be right. She wasn’t going to forget that sort of thing, no matter how much he apologized. I knew her too well.
“I don’t know Justin. Just talk to her and see what happens, though I will say that I wouldn’t get your hopes up.”
I could see that they were already way up and all it was going to do was make it all the more difficult. I wanted to tell him that he was just going to have to get over her. She was mine. But I held that part in. He was going to have to learn his own way and I was going to have to just shut my mouth.
“I have to get her back. I do
n’t know what I was thinking, and I don’t want anyone else. Gemma’s always been what I wanted. You know that even when you were dating her, I had the biggest crush on her. Now I finally have her and I fucked it all up. What the hell am I supposed to do with that?”
I didn’t know what to tell him and finally I figured that the best bet would be to get something to drink. I wanted to get away from Hartford for a while and get away from it all, but Justin wanted to go to the bar that Gemma worked at. Gemma would be pissed if she knew that I told him about Sandra. She was holding out on it for some reason and I was trying to push it over into the other direction. I needed her to see that I was on her side, even though they both were close to me. At the end of the day, as it was becoming clear as Justin asked for my help that I was going to pick Gemma. She was the one that I was worried about getting back and the shower this morning reminded me of why. I wanted her so badly that it hurt.
“You just have to throw yourself to her mercy, admit what you did and see what she says. Don’t tell her that I told you about it though. I think that was told in confidence and I don’t want that attitude pointed towards me.”
“Yeah, I hear that. She is a bit scary when she is mad. I can’t believe how much has changed in the last week.”
I felt the same way. This had been one hell of an eventful week and I wasn’t even thinking about Matt and his arresting me. No, it was Gemma that made all the difference in the world. The thing was, it had always been Gemma.
“Do you really think that’s going to work?”
I shrugged and told him that I didn’t know. Inside, I was hoping that it wouldn’t. I know that made me wonder if he would somehow win her back. He’d gotten her in the first place, something I would have never considered likely, so who was to say that he wouldn’t create another miracle?
