Charlie crashes back on the bed and covers her face with her hands as she pants, trying to catch her breath. I walk into the bathroom and turn the water on hot to rinse a washcloth for her. As I come back and clean her up, Charlie starts to breathe normally again. I lie next to her, running my hands along her left side.
“Are you okay?”
“Mr. Cowboy, you don’t disappoint, when you said that I would see stars, you meant it.” We clasp hands as she turns her head to face me. I look at her flushed covered skin and smile at her.
“I aim to please the lady. I must admit, I like the way you come, by the way. I wish I had set my phone to record so I could set it to be my new ringtone.” Charlie slaps me as she mumbles something about castrating me.
“Rhett, you are wearing way too many clothes for my liking. It’s only fair that I get to see what’s going on under there.” I laugh at her forwardness considering an hour ago I didn’t think I would even get this close to her. I pull my shirt from jeans and toss it over my head into the pile of clothes that we have already discarded. Charlie stares at my bare chest, reading and looking at my tattoos. It seems to captivate her. “I bet they all have a story.” I nod.
Charlie rises from the bed to stand in front of me. Charlie’s hands are on each side of my cheeks as she touches my lips with hers in a slow, soft, romantic kiss. It’s full of tenderness and feeling. I wrap my hands around her waist to bring her closer to me. I feel her hard nipples on my chest, and it’s turning me on. It’s one of my biggest turn ons, seeing and feeling the effect that I have on a woman. I feel her, see her react to my touch, and hear the words from her lips to my ears. I could spend a lot of time with Charlie in bed showing her how much she turns me on. We have tonight, and I plan on not sleeping. Charlie starts to fumble with my belt buckle, but her hands are shaking so bad that she can’t get control. I’m beginning to notice that in the bedroom, she’s very timid, unsure of what she needs to be doing. I place my hand over hers.
“You lay in the middle of the bed and let me do this.”
“I’m sorry,” Charlie whispers and crawls onto the bed like a tiger stalking her prey. I groan. Charlie flips her hair off her shoulder as she looks back to me with this innocent doe-like expression on her face. I wish she knew how sexy she truly is, and the nervousness is actually turning me on even more.
“Baby, that was probably the hottest thing you have done all night. Your ass in the air with your pussy on display. Back up and do it again.” I hurry up and take my jeans off. I didn’t need to worry about my boxers as I wasn’t wearing any but I grab the condom out of my wallet. I roll the blue condom onto my hardening shaft. Charlie decides to fight fire with fire as she exaggerates every move, stalking toward the middle of the bed as she turns around to lie down.
She gulps. “Wow,” she whispers as she looks at my hard cock in my hand. I’ve been playing with it to get it harder to slide right into her. I need to be in her. It’s almost like breathing, I have to have it. I smirk because I may not be big, but I make up for it in girth.
I’m at the bottom of the bed and decide to grab Charlie’s ankles and pull her down to me. I start putting her blue wedges back on her beautiful feet. I lean down to kiss her, and she starts moving back to her position on the bed all the while our lips never leave each other. I bite down on her lip and start to pull into my mouth. Charlie moans and vibrates my lips. I slide into her slow as to get her ready for me. “Relax, baby.”
Once I’m in, I freeze, waiting for her to get used to me. Charlie licks her lips and nods her head, that was all I needed. I pull almost out of her and slam into her. I do this a few times over and over again until we can find a rhythm that both of us enjoy. Charlie knew why I wanted the shoes on her feet as the bottom of the wedges to start to push into my ass cheeks. The pain from that and the pleasure from the thrusting into her that this is almost like an out of body experience that I could stay here forever. I need to make sure that I get her new address to make this a monthly meeting. The faster I slam into her, the harder she presses into my ass and adds to it her hips are matching my movements. I almost came three times in a twenty-minute period. We are both denying ourselves an orgasm as I have felt her tightening on a few occasions too.
“Baby, I can’t hold on much longer. You need to come,” I beg her.
“But—” she starts to argue. I am no longer leaning over her as I hold onto the headboard for better strength to move faster. “Oh, God. Rheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeett!” Charlie screams out so loud that I cover her mouth with a kiss. I start to use a worm-like motion, nice and slow but long and hard as she comes back to Earth. I look at her shoulders and see her skin glisten from the sweat. “Stars,” Charlie pants.
In one fast motion, Charlie pushes her hips off of the bed as I push into her, and I feel how deep I am. I pull out all the way and slam into her one hard time, and I come. I release at least five years of cum into her; I didn’t think I would ever stop. Charlie is something else, a drug. I’m positively addicted.

My heart is racing and has not given me an indication of when it’s going to slow down. Rhett has given me two, toe-curling, seeing stars, black-out-drunk orgasms. I was worried about my lack of experience since I have only had two partners, well, three now. I’m not going to be able to walk tomorrow. Rhett collapsed on top of me, and I feel his breathing starting to get back to normal. I run my nails up and down his spine. “Oh, my God, Rhett. You should see your ass. I gave you bruises.” I just so happened to look up and see there is a mirror front and center on the opposite wall of the bed. Rhett turns his head to look into the mirror and laughs.
“They are battle scars from a night with Charlie. How do you feel about hickeys?”
“I hate them on my neck, but if they can be covered up with my shirt, I’m okay. Why?”
“Can you wear a turtleneck?” I push him off of me as I jump out of bed to look in the mirror. The room starts to spin as I fall back into Rhett’s arms.
“Wow, my legs. I can’t feel them.” Rhett picks me up and takes me into the bathroom. The only room available tonight was the honeymoon suite which meant that we have a Jacuzzi tub. He sets me down on the toilet and starts to run the bath water. I look into the mirror that is all around the tub and see three small hickeys—two on my neck and one of my breast. I shake my head at him. “Good thing my uniform is a blouse and tie.” Rhett laughs at me.
“I didn’t realize that I got so excited kissing your neck.” Rhett starts to give me a hug and tries to move to my neck.
“Down, boy. Get out of here, I have to pee.” I push him away from me, and he tells me to yell when the water is ready. I take a few deep breaths trying to get my emotions under control before stepping into the tub. “It’s ready,” I yell as I put my head on the back of it with my eyes closed enjoying the hot water and bubbles. I feel Rhett slide into the tub with me. He tugs my hand for me to come and sit with him. I cuddle up to him as he plays with my long blonde hair.
“This is nice,” Rhett whispers into my hair.
“Mmmmm it is. I can get used to this.” I cover my mouth fast. “I meant—”
“I was thinking the same thing. I could get used to this too.”
“In another lifetime,” I sadly reply. He grunts in agreement. We lie there in each other’s arms until the water starts turning cold. We get out and wrap the robes around our bodies. “These are heavenly.”
“Take it.”
“They will charge you, and I didn’t bring a bag big enough to hide it.” I laugh as we walk into the bedroom. I blush looking at the mess, pillows everywhere, no bedspread and clothes in a pile.
“Hungry?” Rhett asks as he grabs the menu.
“Uh, I thought I would get dressed and head home.” I smile weakly at him. I feel myself getting attached after knowing him six hours, and I can’t imagine what all night would be like.
“No. I promised you a movie and food. I make good on my promises, darlin’.” Rhett
uses his Southern drawl against me because he knows what it does to me. I let out a frustrated sigh and grab the menu from his hand, picking out the biggest steak on the menu. Rhett orders and puts the pillows on the bed so he can lean against them. He pats the spot in-between his legs, and I slink my way up there. I probably should have protested more, but I’m happy that he wasn’t ready to get rid of me yet. I start to fall asleep watching some action movie that he picked.
I was up early today after only getting a few hours of sleep then the mind-blowing sex, dancing, and the alcohol, my high was coming down. There’s a knock on the door, and I jump. Rhett laughs as he moves from behind me to get the meal from the waiter. “Well, hello, Charlie.” I awkwardly wave at Sheldon. I went to culinary school with him. He winks as Rhett looks at me and I give Sheldon the death glare.
“I went to school with him.” Rhett nods and leads me to the bed.
“Please sit down and I’ll serve your dinner.” Rhett makes a grand gesture of taking the silver lids off of the plates, and the steak smells so good that I moan. “Hey, I can only make those noises come out of your mouth when we’re together.” I couldn’t help but smile when I see Rhett cutting up my steak for me and hands it to me. We eat in silence as we watch the movie. I start to yawn and fight to keep my eyes open.
“I’m sorry. I’ve been up for almost twenty hours, and I still have to work in twelve hours. I should head home.”
“Please stay the night.”
“I don’t know.” Yes, my head screams.
“I promise not to have sex with you during the middle of the night. I want to hold you.” I look into his eyes, and I nod. I’m going to regret this, but what the hell. After tonight, I’ll never see him again. We climb into bed, and he pulls me close to him as I drift off to sleep, thinkingof the blue-eyed cowboy. A tear falls from my eyes.

Saturday night/Sunday morning
I can’t believe it’s almost two AM, and I need to be up at eight AM to start loading this truck. I left Rhett’s bed when he started snoring in my ear. I put my pillows where my body was, I watched him for a couple of minutes before slinking out of the room, I felt like a coward but I just don’t trust myself.
After I left the hotel, I hailed a cab to take me to the pier. I walked around trying to clear my head enough to sleep. I know that I am going to have to answer his questions later on today but I pray that he doesn’t show up.
I walk into the apartment, and it’s dark. “Thank you,” I say out loud as I tiptoe to my room. I flip on the light, and I scream. Rhett is sitting there in the dark.
“What the fuck are you trying to do? Give me a fucking heart attack?”
“Well, at least I know you’re alive.” Rhett’s tone is less than thrilled.
“Leave. I’m tired, and I don’t want to talk.”
“Why?”
“Why what? Wait, how did you find out where I live?” I point to the door with my keys still in my hand.
“Why did you leave in the middle of the night? Maddie gave me your address since we’re helping you load up the truck.”
“Rhett, it was only supposed to be sex, nothing more. Staying the night was more than I wanted.”
“You didn’t stay the night but okay.” Rhett gets up from my bed. He was wearing black basketball shorts and a tank top. “I’ll see you in the morning. I’ll be on the couch.”
“The couch?”
“The girls are staying at the hotel with my brothers. They all formed this weird bond.”
“Sleep in here because it’s horrible on that thing,” I say to him before I can stop myself. I grab my robe to shower because I didn’t need this from him tonight. It’s not like we’re in a relationship. He shouldn’t be mad at me. I scrub my face in the shower as I feel the curtain pull back, and Rhett slides in behind me.
“Let me wash your back.” I don’t argue. I’m too tired and frustrated. “Long night?” I smile at Rhett trying to make small talk with me.
“Yeah. A lot of my regular customers came in with cards and said goodbye to me. It was really sweet.”
“This move must be scary.”
“It is but exciting. We need the change and Texas is the perfect place for us.” I smack my forehead and Rhett laughs. “That is all you are getting.”
“At least we’ll be in the same state.” I shut off the water and grab my towels.
“What happened to a night of fun? No strings? No attachments?” I ask as I wrap my hair in the towel.
“You’re like a drug, I’m addicted. I will let you get settled into Texas before I start my stalking.” Rhett winks as he walks out of my bathroom with the towel wrapped around his waist. I slept all night and probably the best four hours in a long time.
It’s 8:30 AM when I hear loud voices coming from the apartment. Rhett and I both bolt up realizing that we are naked after having another mind-blowing round of sex. We both scramble for clothes as I hear Tucker and Maddie coming our way. We come out of the room dressed in shorts and a tank top ready to start our day.
“Oh, thank God you brought coffee,” I say as I take it and a donut from the table. We eat in silence, but Rhett and I keep stealing glances at each other. We loaded up all of our belongings and slammed the door shut to the U-Haul. Tucker and Wesley hug all of us girls and Rhett stands back. Maddie takes my Jeep keys and tells me that she’ll be in the car waiting for me. The guys hang out with her while I say goodbye to Rhett.
“I can’t believe how much this hurts,” I cry into Rhett’s chest as he rubs my back.
“We’ll call and text. I will see you soon.” He kisses the top of my head. I hear Dana beeping.
“Let’s go.” We kiss each other a couple of times, and I run to the Jeep. I buckle up, and Maddie grabs my hand and squeezes for reassurance. We beep and wave as I see Rhett getting smaller and smaller. It’s a weekend of fun and no more.
The End
Rhett
It’s been four days since Charlie drove away from me. My heart literally ripped out of my chest. I’ve been calling and texting her but nothing in return. Maddie keeps telling me to give her time and I’m trying. Karen said last night that the new chef was starting today, and I need to watch my tone with her because apparently I’ve been an ogre to work and live with since coming back from San Francisco.
I throw the covers off of me. I stretch and smack my face to wake me up. I haven’t been sleeping well since Sunday morning having Charlie in my arms. I peeked at the products she used and packed so I could buy them. I have a box in the back of my closet so I can take it out a sniff. I’m a love-sick puppy dog.
The main ranch house is a nine-bedroom colonial. We built on to it when Savannah got married. We knew that Quinn would eventually get married, and both of them would start having kids. We wanted this house to be full of family one day. Every bedroom has their own bathroom, but five of them have actual showers, Tucker calls them the master suites. We each have our own shower because growing up it sucked sharing a bathroom. My tastes are simple, blue colors, all shades. It suits my mood.
I head to my shower so I can start my day. When I’m done, I walk into my room with a towel wrapped around my waist, and Tucker is standing there sitting on my bed. “Are you going to play nice today or are you going to be in the office all day?”
“I’ll try to play nice.” I walk into my closet to find my work clothes.
“She will call you when she’s ready. Maddie says she’s nervous about her new job and impressing her bosses.”
“You know more than me. Where are they staying?”
“Right now in a hotel, somewhere in Texas. They won’t tell us. We keep trying. Respect her privacy.” Tucker leaves my room, and I mimic his final words, “Respect her privacy.”
I get dressed in my regular blue jeans, brown boots, and a white t-shirt. I grab my Pittsburgh Steelers baseball cap. Even though I live in Texas, I can’t bring myself to cheer for the Cowgirls err Cowboys. As I open my door, my
nose is hit with the most incredible smells. This chef impresses me already.
I run down the stairs to greet my new favorite employee, and I stop at the view in front of me. Our new chef is dancing to Luke Bryan’s “Country Girl (Shake it for me)”. Her ass is shaking up and down as she pulls something out of the oven. When she turns around, I feel like the wind has been knocked out of me.
“Charlie,” I whisper.
I step closer to her. “Charlie!” I say with a smile on my face.
Charlie yells out in pain as the pan of biscuits that she just pulled from the oven hits her shins.
“Fuck!”
