The Line Between

The figure jumped, and I heard a squeak before Ke

I made a face, even though I doubted she could see me in the dark. “What are you doing in here? I could’ve hurt you.”

“I’m sorry, I just…” she stopped, and I heard her sigh.

I didn’t have time for this. She’d made it clear where we stood earlier, or rather where she stood. I couldn’t imagine what reason she possibly had for being here in the middle of the night, and I was too tired to ask.

“You can show yourself out,” I bit out. “I’m going back to bed.”

I turned around, and walked back into my room. Footsteps sounded behind me, albeit light ones. I threw my baseball bat onto the floor with a thud, and kept my back to the door. Her presence was like a lightning bolt that bounced around the room until it hit me. My muscles tensed when I felt her at my back.

“Dane.”

The way she said my name…Fuck.

“What do you want, Ke

“I don’t know,” she replied quietly. She sounded unsure, and it pissed me off. I turned, not realizing how close she was, and instinctively reached for her when she stumbled backwards. There was enough light coming through my bedroom window for me to see that she was wearing nothing but an oversized t-shirt – the one I’d left her in after our first night together. The sight of her in my shirt made my i

I held her wrists between us, aware of how her chest moved with every breath, of how her tongue snuck out to lick her lips.

“Tell me why you’re here,” I ground out.

“I wanted to see you.” Her reply came without thought, like she’d been preparing for this moment.

“So you sneak in here in the middle of the night?”

“I couldn’t sleep.”

It was strange, to think that she’d been just as restless as I was after our conversation in the parking lot.

“You are testing me,” I growled. “I asked you if you wanted this, and your silence was answer enough. So I’ll as you again. What.Are.You.Doing.Here?”

Her eyes darted back and forth, but for once they gave nothing away. The atmosphere had shifted, filled with a charge. I could feel her pulse beneath my thumb, and the unsteady thump-thump matched the erratic beat of mine.

“I couldn’t tell you what you wanted to hear, Dane. It meant I had to acknowledge that you hurt me this week, and I didn’t want to give you that satisfaction. I hated the thought of being nothing more to you than a quick fuck. I’m not saying I want a relationship, our history is too sordid for that, but…what happened between us, I liked it, I want more of it.”

We stood there, staring, for what felt like hours. I was bemused, more now than ever, and before I could do anything, I had to be sure she understood what would happen if we went ahead with this…arrangement.

“You don’t know what you’re asking me,” I murmured.

“I do,” she swallowed audibly. “I’m asking…” she paused.

“Say it,” I hedged.

“I’m asking for uninhibited access to your body, and I want to give you the same with mine.”

“Why not say it like it is,” I mused. “You want to fuck me.”

The light tinge in her cheeks, barely visible in the dim light, made me tighten my grip. It was unbelievably sexy, to see the apples of her cheeks become rosy because of the candid way I’d said her own words back to her.

She looked down to hide her embarrassment, but I didn’t want her to feel ashamed for telling me what she wanted. There would be no room for that between us. She had to be comfortable with me, open, and willing.

“I won’t share you,” I said, freeing her wrist so that I could tilt her chin up. “And I won’t expect you to share me. It’s that simple. I’m yours when you want me, and vice versa. No one has to know. It stays here, between us. Understood?”

Ke

I licked my way over to the other side, and did the same until Ke

“You wax?” I asked, not bothering to look up.

“Yeah.” I could hear her blush, and when I peaked at her from beneath my lashes she was biting her lip. I pla

“I’ve been thinking about this all week,” I said. “I’ve been wondering what you taste like.”

“Dane,” she wavered. “No one’s ever…”

“Eaten you out before?”

She covered her eyes with her hands, and let out a shaky giggle. “Oh God.”

I lifted her hands from her face, and gri

“Never be shy with me, Kitten. You can trust me.”

“Okay.” Her sweet smile brought something else to life inside me – my need to please her, to worship her body.

I settled between her legs, and then lifted them over my shoulders. I breathed in her sweet scent, and hummed in appreciation. My mouth came over her lips, and my tongue slid through her folds.

“Ohhhh….” Ke

“Mmmmmm….yes, right there…Ohhhhhh.”

My teeth nicked at her sensitive clit, and her body seized as her orgasm took over. I sat up, keeping my fingers moving inside her, and watched the way she sighed, arched her back, and gripped my sheets.

Her eyes were heavy when she opened them, and her mouth dipped into a lazy smile.

Slowly, I withdrew my fingers, and licked them clean of her wetness. Her pupils were dilated, clearly aroused by me tasting her.

“You good?” I asked, standing from the bed. I removed my briefs, and palmed my hard cock in my hands. Ke

“More than good,” was her reply.

I started to reach for a condom in my bedside drawer, but Ke

I’d never, and I mean never gone bareback before. I was strict about using protection, not only to prevent an unwanted pregnancy, but also to prevent any kind of STD.
