“Too much reality, huh? Fantasies don’t usually include everyday, ordinary activities but that’s what makes this real. Life can be so much better.”
“You’re perfect, you know that?”
“Hardly but thanks for thinking so. Trust me, I have plenty of faults which I’m sure you’ll notice soon enough. Or you could call Shane if you don’t believe me.”
Kiley rolled her eyes and started the laundry. She was sorting through the mail from the past two days with Jordan sitting companionably beside her. Fumbling with an envelope, she finally said, “You have to stop watching me.”
“But you’re fascinating when you’re engrossed.”
“I can’t concentrate with you staring at me like that. I told you I’m not very good at this. I wasn’t kidding.”
“I could help.”
“I’m sure you could have this done in no time but I don’t think I’m ready for that yet.”
“All right. Where’s your photo album?”
“On the dresser in my bedroom.”
“Then that’s where I’ll be.” He stood. “I’ll look through it and see if I can find the picture of your birthday. Then I’ll pick another one for you to tell me about when you’re done, okay?”
“Oh, um, okay.” She couldn’t decide if having him in her bedroom was better or worse than him watching her. Before she could say more, he walked from the room.
Jordan was sprawled across her bed, paging through the album when she checked on him an hour later. “All done?”
“Almost. I should be by the time I stick the other load in the dryer. You okay in here?”
“Yes. You were right about the picture. Alyssa was talented even then.”
“She took lots of the ones in there. You can probably tell which are hers.”
“Not really. I’ve only seen her book on the gang. Nothing family-oriented like you have here. Does she do fun themes too?”
“No, she gravitates to, I don’t know, darker things.”
“Why?”
“I guess it started after my dad died. It was like she closed off that part of herself. She’s always fun and funny but in a bold way. She doesn’t let things get to her and she certainly doesn’t put up with anyone messing with her. It’s like she won’t give anything the chance to make her hurt like it did when he died. Remember her dad’s in pretty much the same boat as mine was. He could be sent anywhere at any time. And I think my mom’s problems pushed her further into herself too.”
“You’ve obviously given this some thought.”
“Yeah. I could be wrong though. Maybe unsettling things just interest her more and it took her this long to figure it out. I tried to ask her once but she keeps me at arm’s length whenever I get too personal.”
“By not letting you get close, it won’t hurt her if something happens to you too?” he guessed.
“Exactly, which is why I go overboard to let her know I care.” Kiley seemed amazed by his interest. “Wow. How’d we get on this? I better get back to work.”
“Go ahead. I’m not through here. We can talk while we wait for the dryer to finish.” Jordan didn’t tell her that his information on Alyssa was very similar to what she’d said.
He continued to flip through the rest of the album, enjoying the glimpse into her childhood. After he set it aside, he relaxed on her pillow. He could smell her shampoo. The bedding was floral, which suited her. It was so feminine, just like she was. He looked around the room slowly and decided that it was a collection of Kiley’s life. Probably everything in it held a memory. Hers was exactly the kind of home Jordan wanted for himself, comfortable and welcoming, filled with things that were personal. In his opinion, it made her even more appealing.
When he heard Kiley moving around in the other room, he decided that he was ready to play. Quickly, he stripped, grabbing his cell phone before he stretched back out on the bed. Hearing the noise of the dryer, he dialed her number.
“Hello,” she answered.
“Hi, Kiley,” he spoke in the tone Kiley deemed sexy. “Done with your bills?”
“Yes. What are you up to?”
“I’m lying here in your bed, picturing us together.”
“Oh really?”
“Mm. Did I mention that I’m naked? And that the thought of you here, sleeping on these flowered sheets that are so like you, is very exciting?”
“Is it?”
“Definitely. Want to know what else I’m thinking?”
“Yes.”
“I’m thinking that, since I already know you’re going to drive me wild Monday and we won’t be able to see each other to do anything about the state you’ll have me in, you need to have something to think about too. It’s only fair.”
“What am I supposed to think about?”
“Us. Together. Here. In your bed.”
“Sleeping?”
“Far from it.” Jordan chuckled, sending shivers up and down her spine.
“Then what?”
“Hmm, let’s see what I can come up with.” He paused. “You already know that I’m naked and hard. I was thinking about you walking in here, seeing the condition I’m in and being unable to resist pulling me into your mouth.”
“Go on.” Kiley could practically feel him.
“All right. You stretch out next to me. Did I mention that you’re naked now too? Well, here you are, running your tongue up and down, sucking me deep into your throat, just like you did yesterday. You have your hands on me too and I’m burning up everywhere you touch.”
“And?” Kiley’s breathing was ragged.
“And today, instead of making me keep my hands to myself you urge me onto my side, facing you. You open up to me, knowing how much I want you to share the pleasure you’re giving me. I cover you with my mouth, sliding my tongue into you, mimicking the movement of your head.”
“Do we come?”
“You do, several times.”
“But not you?” Kiley was pulling off her clothes.
“Well, see that all depends. I’m certainly ready to. I can’t believe how hard you make me. The way you stroke me, the way you clamp your thighs around my head when you come has me so close.”
“But?”
“But you know I’ll want more as soon as I’m physically able. You know you’re so hot that once isn’t enough. If you continue with your mouth, you know the next one will be in your sweet pussy. You know you make me emotional and you know my second time will be drawn out. I’ll have to touch you all the places that I’ve learned you like. My body will worship yours and I won’t be able to stay playful.”
“What if I stop before you come?”
“Then I can imagine you pushing me onto my back. You’ll straddle me, lowering yourself onto my hard cock. I’ll still touch you everywhere but it’ll be different since you’ll have me so incredibly turned on. You’ll make it last though. You’ll let me watch you move on top of me, showing me how much you like the feel of me by coming over and over again until you think you can’t handle any more. Then and only then, will you take me with you.”
“Okay, so that would be once. Would you still want me again?”
“I will always want you again. I’ll never get enough of you. Don’t you know that by now? But, since we’ve been very active, we’ll need to shower…”
“And this time you’ll join me like I want you to?”
“Yes.” Jordan waited. “Kiley? Are you there?”
“No, Jordan.” She climbed on to the bed and positioned herself next to him as he described. “I’m here.” She took him in her mouth. Soon she encouraged him to do exactly what he had told her.
When Kiley pushed him to his back and mounted him, Jordan said, “Not ready yet, huh?”
“Not quite,” she moaned. “But the thought of us in the shower…”
“You seem fond of that idea.”
“Oh yeah.” He slid his hand between them to give her added stimulation.
Jordan barely let her catch
her breath before he was moving. “Do that again. I want you to have lots to think about Monday.”
“Jordan,” she panted his name as she set the pace. “Oh God!” It took no time before she was ready again. “You too.” She let him know what she wanted.
Afterward, they lay intertwined, talking about nothing. “Monday, when you get home, will you call to say good night?”
“Sure, if you want me to. You can tell me what you’re thinking.”
“I’ll be thinking about this and you know it.”
“Good. I will be too. I think you are the most spectacular, amazing, incredible woman.” Jordan was lying on his side, tracing his finger along her chin.
“Thank you.” She snuggled closer. “You’re pretty hot yourself.”
“I wasn’t talking about sex although the description applies to that too.” He held her gaze. “I meant you, who you are. When I looked at your pictures I could see how much your life changed after your dad died. When you were talking about Alyssa you could easily have had the same reaction that you think she did, even more so. But you didn’t. You’re sweet and generous and…”
“Sh.” She put her finger against his lips. “I am, as you say, just me. Like you, I have plenty of faults.”
“I’m looking forward to discovering them. That is, if you’re really willing to spend more time with me.”
“Is that a not so subtle attempt to make sure I’m coming home with you tonight?”
“Not really but, since you brought it up?”
“You’re so cute.” She kissed him playfully. “Yes. In fact, if it’s okay with you, I thought maybe you would bring me here Monday morning. Unless you have something and want me to bring my car instead.”
“I would love for you to stay until then and I certainly don’t mind dropping you off. Want to go out for dinner tonight?”
“How do you feel about pizza?”
“Pizza’s good. We can rent a movie and have a picnic. What’s your favorite?”
“Wouldn’t you rather watch something new?”
“No, I’d rather know more about you.”
“I don’t think…”
“Please?”
“Okay but we really don’t have to watch either of these. It’s a toss-up between While you were Sleeping and Joe versus the Volcano.”
“Hmm, I’m surprised you didn’t include Overboard.”
“That’s next. I can’t believe you’re familiar with these.”
“Why not? But maybe I should tell you that during college Brett usually made me go along whenever his date wanted to see a chick flick and the movie theater nearest the school specialized in the classic ones on Saturday afternoons.”
“For moral support?” Kiley laughed.
“Yeah, something like that. I think he really wanted someone to make snide remarks to.”
“And you were nice enough to go along.”
“That’s what friends are for. He generally provided me with a blind date, most of which were disasters.”
“Aw, poor baby.” Kiley thought the look on his face was priceless. “We’ll pick something else.”
“Nah, I think my present company will make all the difference in the world. Besides, you can explain the fascination to me while we watch.”
“I’ll try but as a guy, there might be some things you just don’t get,” she giggled. “You sure you don’t mind going to dinner at Dee’s tomorrow?”
“Not at all. I should check in with Will anyway and I agree that it’ll be easier for you to answer Dee’s questions away from the restaurant. I won’t be surprised if Brett shows up too.”
“Yes, I’ve heard how he enjoys Dee’s cooking.”
“That’s only part of it. He also likes Will and the way he and Dee are together. So do I.”
“Me too.” Kiley noticed that Jordan’s hands were roaming over her body. “Can I ask you something?” He nodded. “How come you waited until now to play in the shower with me?”
“Simple. The first night you told me you’d been fantasizing about us in the shower. Since then, we’ve been living out mine at my house. I thought we should save some for here.”
“But how did you know we’d be here?”
“I didn’t for sure. I just hoped you’d invite me sometime.”
“And how were you going to get us to the shower?” she teased him by caressing his chest.
“I figured I’d seduce you.” He claimed her mouth with a demanding kiss. When Kiley responded, Jordan almost forgot his intent. “Hang on, love. If you don’t slow down, we’re not going to make it to the shower.”
“Oh. Yeah. Thanks for reminding me.” She slipped away from him and tugged on his hand.
Jordan chuckled, following her into the tub. He positioned himself behind her as he had the first night at his house only this time he didn’t stop her from reaching for him. He didn’t stop himself from pulling her close and kissing her as he’d wanted to then.
“Mm, I’ve been waiting for this,” Kiley purred.
His hands slid down to her ass. He squeezed her cheeks, his erection trapped between them as he reclaimed her mouth. “Me too,” he whispered, devouring her as she was him.
Kiley seemed frustrated, not being able to capture his cock. She took a step back to separate them and, missing the mat, her foot slipped out from under her. Fortunately, Jordan reacted quickly, catching her before she fell.
“Careful, love. You okay?”
Steadying herself by clasping his arms, Kiley looked up at him and began to laugh. Softly at first, then a full belly laugh. After a minute she was just barely able to contain herself. “I’m sorry, Jordan.” She chuckled again. “Somehow this isn’t what I imagined.”
Jordan’s laughter joined hers. “No, not quite my fantasy either.” He kissed her thoroughly. “But I bet we can improvise and come up with something we’ll both enjoy anyway.”
“Ooh yeah,” she echoed. “I’m sure we can. The last thing I want to do is kill us trying to have sex in the shower. I’ll have to get a bigger mat so we can maneuver in here a little better next time.” Her giggles returned until Jordan took her body wash and drizzled some over her breasts.
“Better hold on to me,” Jordan advised.
With a grin, Kiley rubbed her hands over her breasts, coating them before wrapping her fingers around his cock. “Good idea.”
As Kiley slowly stroked him, Jordan’s hands roamed over her body, lathering her as he went. He massaged her breasts, circling her nipples over and over again, making them stand out in stiff peaks. It took ages for him to actually touch them and by the time he did, Kiley was moaning.
“God, Jordan,” she gasped when he pinched her nubs between his fingers.
“Like that?” he asked, brushing her flesh with the back of one bent finger.
“You know I do.” She gripped his cock tighter, arching her back in offering. “Don’t stop.”
“Not a chance.” His hands manipulated her sensitive peaks until she trembled. Only then did he let one drift lower, caressing her belly before settling over her mound.
“Yeah,” she whispered, widening her stance slightly to give him better access. “Touch me. Please.”
That was all the encouragement Jordan needed. He slid one, then two fingers into her tightness, matching her tempo as she continued to pump his cock. For the longest time all that was heard was the water cascading over them and their labored breathing. He wrapped his other arm around her, half supporting her, half supporting himself.
“Kiley,” Jordan groaned, awed at how she added a slight twist at the end of each stroke, catching his crown just right. He felt his balls drawing up tight and knew he was close. He wanted her to find release first and he bent his thumb so his knuckle would press her clit as he penetrated her.
“Oh wow,” Kiley exclaimed, shivering in delight. “Oh my God,” she moaned, eyes locking with his. “That’s perfect.”
Unconsciously, her hands tightened on his shaft. “So’
s that,” he agreed, thrusting into her grip. “So good.” His pumped faster with both his cock and his fingers. “Come with me.”
“Yes,” she cried in ecstasy, her pussy clenching his fingers tightly just as his cock erupted.
A minute later they were clinging together, panting, struggling to stay upright. Jordan recovered first. He used one finger to tip her head for a soft kiss. “Beautiful,” he sighed before getting down to the business of showering in earnest.
Forty-five minutes later, Jordan was drying Kiley with one of her fluffy towels. “Now that was the best shower I ever had.”
“Yeah.” She leaned against him. “Thanks, Jordan. It wasn’t exactly what I imagined but it was still amazing.”
“My pleasure,” he murmured.
“Mine too,” she sighed. “We should go.”
“We don’t have to. I’m happy right where I am.”
“But I’m hungry. I know it’s awfully early but we didn’t have lunch.”
“If we have lunch now we won’t want pizza until midnight. Why don’t we go pick up the movies and get some snacks for later? The place right down the street from me makes the best pizza so we can stop there last. We can eat it while we watch the first movie.”
“Then what?” He seemed very comfortable walking around naked in front of her and, even though she was completely satisfied, she still felt a tingle looking at him.
“Then we’ll have an intermission. What do you think my chances are of getting you naked again?” He caught her staring.
“I’d say damn good,” she answered boldly, reaching out and squeezing his butt.
“Hey!” he pretended to be shocked.
“What? I thought you liked me to touch you.”
“I do and I recommend that you do it often but you’re the one who said we should go.”
“I know,” she sighed and began to dress. “Jordan?” She turned and wrapped her arms around him. “Thanks for today. I shouldn’t have been so nervous about bringing you here.”
“It’s all right. Even though we’re good together, we still need to get used to each other.”
“You’re too kind, saying that. I agree that we’re extremely good together but we both know that I’m the one who needs to get used to us.”
