Once we are done with our run, I go in and grab my bag and head for the hall shower. I turn on the water, and pull out the needed toiletries. The shower has so much space, and I love not feeling so cramped. Once I am all clean and dressed, I blow dry my hair as much as time will allow, and slip on some lip gloss and mascara really quick.
When I step back out into the main space, Tara has also showered, and has on the cutest tank and pajama pants. I mean, seriously, even her pajamas are adorable on her. She is standing at the island, cutting some cheese slices, and has some crackers and fruit pulled out. “Please, have some before you head out. You just got done running three miles, and now you are going to go stand on your feet all night. You really should eat a little something.”
I walk over to the island, and grab a slice of cheese and a cracker. I smirk my lips at Tara. “Let me guess… you insist.” She then just shoves my shoulder slightly. “Seriously though, Tara, thank you for the run, and letting me get ready here, as well as the food. I really do appreciate it. We need to try and do this again soon. I really have to head out now, though.”
Tara walks around the island, and follows me to the door. She pauses her hand on the knob before opening it, and tucks her hair behind her ears. “Ok look, Caroline, I hope this doesn’t sound weird, but I have been doing a lot of thinking since we met up yesterday. I know you are not happy with your current living conditions. Then today, when you showed up and seemed to really like this place, it encouraged my decision even more. I would like you to consider becoming my roommate.”
I start to protest, knowing there is no way I could afford half of what the rent must be to this place. Tara just holds up her hand to stop me. “Wait, let me finish. My parents are already paying the rent on this place, and don’t expect help with that. I spoke with them last night about what my thoughts were, and they actually liked the idea of me having someone here with me. They know Andrew and I have broken up, and they think this will be a good thing. So, if you feel you could afford the electric bill and bring in your own groceries, then the guest room and hall bath are all yours.”
I know I am standing there with my mouth wide open. The chance to get away from Piper and actually live in this house is beyond tempting. I can’t help but worry, though—what if Tara and I end up not getting along? Where does that leave me if she wants me out?
“Wow Tara, I can’t believe this. Are you really sure about it all? I mean, living with me and only having me pay one bill? I really appreciate this, but do you mind if I think about it for a little while first?” She opens the door for me, and we both step out. “Caroline, of course I am sure; it was my idea. As far as you taking your time to think about it… well I would hope you would, actually. It shows you are not as reckless as some maybe seem to think you are. I have been thinking about finding someone to live here with me since the second week I was here. I just never felt like I found the right person until now.”
I give Tara a hug, and start to walk toward my Blazer. “Well then, I will definitely give it serious thought, and let you know soon then. Bye.” Tara gives me a quick wave, and I start up my car to head into work as she is shutting her door.
Kyle and I have text a couple times today, but I decide to call him on my way into work, since I haven’t actually talked to him yet. He answers on the second ring. “Hey Caroline; I was just thinking about you. Well, I have been thinking about you a lot, to be honest. How are you?” I can’t help but smile every time I hear his voice, and he always says the nicest things.
“I have been thinking of you, too. I hope I am not interrupting your work? I was just on my way to my job for the night, so I wanted to call you first.”
“Call me whenever you want, Caroline. I love to hear your voice. Plus, I only have one more patient for today, and then I am headed home. I know it is going to be hard to sleep tonight, though. Knowing I finally get to see you tomorrow. Even if it has just been a few days, it feels like forever since I touched you. I have a craving for you, Caroline. For all of you, but those desirable lips of yours keep playing through my head, and I feel like I’m going crazy.”
Well damn, there he goes again. I really don’t need to start building up another sweat right after I just took a shower. “I am glad you have a desire for my lips, Kyle. That way they will keep you coming back for more. Trust me, I can’t wait to have yours back on mine again either. It really has felt like a long time.”
I faintly hear my favorite rumble through the phone again. “I will meet you outside your dorm at 12 o’clock, Caroline, and I hope you are ready. I am sure, as soon as I can reach you, I will be taking over that mouth of yours.”
“Well then, I will be looking very forward to just that.”
“Good girl; try not to work too hard. If you don’t mind, can you text me when you get in your room tonight, just to let me know you got in ok?”
“Ok I will. See you tomorrow, Kyle.”
“I look very forward to it, Caroline. Be safe. Goodbye.”
I WAKE UP in a sweat Thursday morning, sitting up quickly in my bed. I reach over to the side, seeing that I am actually alone in my bed. I turn toward my headboard, and, of course, don’t find the handcuffs I was obviously just dreaming about really attached to it. Shit, that had to be the most intense dream I have ever had. The main concern I have is why was it of Eric? I was his willing prisoner as he handcuffed my wrist to my headboard. Every touch, every kiss, bite, lick, and suck he gave me felt so real.
I am going to be with Kyle in just a few hours, yet my dreams fall back to Eric. What type of spell has this man got on me? I feel guilty for dreaming about Eric, yet I feel good all over too. I have really got to try and put up some type of wall when it comes to my thoughts, and Eric. This is just so confusing.
I make sure I take extra time getting ready today, since I will be seeing Kyle right after class. I bend over to smell my flowers, and get a big smile on my face. This is going to be a great day. Eric just has some type of crazy lust hold on me I have to get rid of. Kyle is the real deal. He is kind and tentative, and I am sexually drawn to him as well. This is the way things should be.
Before I walk out of my room, I send a text to Raleigh.
Caroline: After my class I will b with Kyle for the rest of the day. I will let u know all the dirty details tonight. Also want to talk to u about an offer Tara made me. Miss ya and talk soon.
I get a message back, right before I walk into class.
Raleigh: U better give me every dirty detail. Leave out nothing :). Miss u too.
As I am walking back toward my dorm after class, I spot Kyle’s car in the lot. He must see me too, because his door swings open and he steps out, closing it quickly. We both start to pick up our pace, walking toward each other. He looks damn hot, and he has the biggest smile across his face. I feel as though my face is going to split from smiling so big myself.
As soon as he reaches me, he grabs my bag off my shoulder, sits it down easy on the ground, and grabs me up into his arms. His lips are on mine instantly, and they are fierce and warm. I can’t help but moan when his tongue touches mine and I hear his rumble in response. He gently slides me back down his body, but his lips don’t leave mine. He is bending down, kissing me with his hands tightly wrapped around me. I have my hands buried deep in his messy brown hair.
We both finally slow the kiss down and break away, while trying to catch our breath. His hazel eyes are staring right into my blue eyes, and I feel the hunger coming from both of us. “I can’t tell you how good that felt, Caroline. God those lips of yours, and to just feel your warmth against me again. I have missed you even more than I thought. I really don’t want to let you go now.”
I smile up at him, and then lean my head into his chest, wrapping my arms tightly around his waist. “I agree it felt very good, and I have obviously really missed you too. You feel and smell so good.”
He lets out a small laugh, and kisses the top of my head. “Well, I am glad you still approve. I think I
should take you out for lunch now, before I attack you any further. I am yours for the day, and I want to make sure I at least have you well fed. You can just put your bag in the back seat of my car, and we can bring it back to your room later… if that is ok?”
I pull back slightly, and start to loosen my grip around his waist. I look back up at him and smile. He just looks so genuinely happy at this moment, and it makes me feel really good. “Well, as long as I have you for the whole day, I guess I can spare some of the time making sure we are both well nourished.” I give him a wink, and he leans down to give me another soft kiss.
He releases his grip on me, and reaches down to pick up my bag while taking my hand into his other one. I notice, as we are walking back to his car, several other students are staring in our direction. I just give them all a big smile and lean into his arm. He gives me another quick kiss on the head and puts my bag in the back seat, and then holds the door open while I get settled into mine.
Once he starts the car, he looks over at me and grabs hold underneath my chin, pulling me to him. He leans in and our lips lock once again in another heated kiss. He starts to pull away and very gently nips at my bottom lip. I seem to be having trouble catching my breath again. This man really knows how to kiss. “Sorry Caroline, once again I just couldn’t stop myself. Where would you like to go eat?”
I lean into him and give him one more peck on the lips. “You are going to have to stop apologizing for that, Kyle. I like it when you take over.”
I hear that rumble again. “Shit, Caroline, ok I will definitely remember that then.”
I give him a sly smile and sit back in my seat. “Unless you have a preference, just turn left out of the lot and I will tell you where to go from there.” He puts the car in gear and takes my hand in his as we drive off.
We spend our lunch eating, talking, and, yes, kissing. I do believe if I were one of the other customers having to watch all this, I probably would have thrown my food at us by now. It just seems we know we aren’t going to get this moment a lot, so we are going to make the most of it.
Since it is cold outside, we decide to go bowling. Neither one of us are really into the game, or that good at it. I sure am having fun, though, bending my ass over as much as possible in front of him. Kyle sure is having fun with it as well. I even dropped the ball one time, just missing our toes because of him. While I was doing an over exerted bend at the waist, getting ready to roll the ball, Kyle comes up behind me. He grabs hold around me with his hands spread flat on the front of my thighs while he presses his body into my ass. Of course, he claimed it looked as though I may have needed help with my stance. Then we both agreed the bowling part of the day was over.
We make it back out to his car, and he pins me against the door. Our mouths and hands begin exploring each other wildly. He reaches down with one of his hands and tightly cups my ass. I can’t help the loud moan that escapes me, and I love the rumble I get in return. Kyle reaches behind me and grabs for the handle, while pulling away abruptly from our kiss.
I give him a pout, and he just shakes his head back and forth. “Caroline, I have to get you in the car and out of here now before I take you in this lot.”
I take a moment to weigh my options and decide that a bowling alley parking lot really didn’t seem like the best place to have sex. “Ok let’s go back to my room. Piper is very rarely there.”
I sit down in my seat, and he just stands there for a moment with the door open. “Are you sure about this, Caroline? Trust me, I want you bad, but I don’t want you to feel pressured or anything.”
I reach my hand out and around to his ass, taking my turn at a grab. His eyes grow very dark, and I lick my lips in return. “Kyle, I want this; don’t at all feel like I might be pressured into it with you.”
He leans down, kissing me one more time, and runs to his side of the car. I am pretty sure he breaks a few laws on the drive back to my room, but it seemed like we just couldn’t get there fast enough. Once we get to my door, I pull out my key and open it. I’m very excited to see it is indeed empty. As soon as I have the door closed, Kyle has me pinned against it as he starts to kiss and nip at my neck, collar, and behind my ear. I tilt my head back as much as I can, and grasp tightly at his hips.
Once Kyle’s mouth makes it to the side with my scar, his kisses become very gentle over it. “Is this from the accident with Raleigh?”
I have trouble finding my words, and my voice sounds very raspy. “Yes, but I came out of it very lucky.”
He reaches his hands up under my ass and lifts me off the floor. Taking my mouth hard against his. I wrap my legs around his waist, and he starts to walk toward the beds as I point over at mine. He lays me down gently and straddles his body over mine.
Kyle is holding his body up over me with his hands on each side. I can see the muscles in his arms bulging, and I start to rake my finger nails lightly up and down them. He starts to lay small kisses over my neck again while speaking to me. “I am sorry you both had to go through that. I couldn’t imagine this world losing someone like you. You are very beautiful, Caroline; inside and out.”
With that, I start to grab for his shirt to pull it off. He takes one of his arms and reaches behind his shoulder blades to remove it for me. His body is now pressed harder to mine, and I can feel his erection through his jeans. This just makes me even wetter than I already was. I start kissing him across his chest and neck. He tilts his head down just enough to watch me. I run my fingernails across his stomach and around to his back.
He cups one of my breasts through my shirt, and I arch my back in response. “God Caroline, you don’t know how bad I want you. To taste and feel every inch of you from the outside in.” I grab hold of his hair and pull his mouth back down to mine. His hand is now grabbing at the bottom of my shirt, pulling it up. I pull my mouth away from him and lift up slightly to help him get it off. Once he drops it on the floor, I can hear his breath quickening as he takes in every part of me that has just been revealed.
“So beautiful, and now I can mark one more thing from the to discover list. I love this tattoo.” He starts kissing under my left breast where the stars of the tat start, and keeps kissing down my side to where the swirl of stars end. He goes back up to where the full moon is in the center section of the side of my ribs, spending extra time there. He then starts to rise back up and takes my nipple in his mouth through the lace of my bra. I gasp as I feel my nipples harden even more.
“This was another item on my list, Caroline. What color your nipples would be, and how they would fit in my mouth?” He pulls down the top of my bra, fully releasing my breast, and sucking as much as he can into his mouth. I arch my back fully, while crying out his name. The warmth of his tongue rolling around me feels so good.
I start to reach down between us for the button of his pants, when I suddenly hear the door starting to open. I start to push up on Kyle and readjust my bra, as Piper steps into the room. Kyle sits up quickly, grabbing for my shirt and handing it to me. He has positioned himself where I am blocked behind him, and he is facing the door.
As I’m putting my shirt back on, Piper flicks on the light. Kyle has just picked up his shirt, and is getting ready to pull it over his head. I look around his side, and can see Piper and the big smile she has across her face. She is eyeing him like he is her own special treat. “Well now, please don’t stop on my behalf. It seems like I might have stepped in just a couple minutes too soon. I might have really gotten a good view of his ass if I showed just a little later.” She then winks at Kyle, and walks over to her side of the room to sit her stuff down.
I pop up out of the bed and stand in front of Kyle, so I can face Piper full on. Kyle rises from the bed and wraps his arms around me from behind. “Well Piper, I have seen enough of your male friend’s asses to last a life time. Although, what I have seen you bring in here isn’t worth seeing again.”
She just gives me a sideways smile, then looks above me to Kyle. “Well sugar, if you
ever want to know what it feels like to be with a real lady you know where to find me.”
Oh, that bitch! I swear, I don’t know how anyone hasn’t axed her by now. Kyle feels me pulling away to walk toward her, so he just tightens his grip and leans down to kiss behind my ear. He then looks up toward Piper. “Trust me when I say that real lady is not the term I would use for you at all. Even if it wasn’t for Caroline, there is no chance I would ever be trying to find you.” Piper’s smile falls, and I, of course, am smiling from ear to ear.
I turn toward Kyle, and he leans in to give me a sweet kiss. “Come on, Caroline, let’s go.” I reach out and grab my favorite hoodie and keys, and we walk out the door hand in hand.
As we are walking away, I look up at Kyle to try and get a feel for what he is thinking. He looks over at me and smiles, while bringing my hand up and placing a kiss on the inside of my wrist.
I lean my head into his arm as we are walking out the door back to the lot. The sun is setting, and it has gotten a lot cooler out. “I am so sorry about that Kyle. I guess the day didn’t quite turn out the way we had expected.” He stops walking, and pulls my sweatshirt from my hand. Kyle pulls it over my head, and I slip my arms through. He reaches down, pulling my hair out from under the hoodie and lets it fall back over my shoulders.
He runs his finger across my cheek, and I close my eyes. “Caroline, I had a wonderful day with you. We may have been interrupted, but I am planning on spending many more days with you. So there will be plenty of time to finish what we started.”
I can feel the smile spreading across my face. “I would like that very much, Kyle.”
We walk over toward his car, and he opens the door for me to get in. “If it is ok with you, I’m not really ready to head back yet. Can we sit and talk some more?” I lean in and kiss him under his chin, and then take my seat.
When he gets in the car, he is smiling while he takes my hand. “I really am sorry about you having to deal with your roommate seeing us together. She really is a piece of work, isn’t she?”
