Instantaneous

I was standing on the street corner with rain trickling down from the polluted, storm covered night sky. The bright florescent city lights and nonstop traffic were blinding my eyes. I started running across the walkway, horns blaring and tires squealing in my wake.

I reached my destination, a corner Thai restaurant that served my favorite noodles. I removed my khaki trench coat and sat at the bar.

“What’ll it be?” asked the bartender.

“Just a bowl of noodles, thanks,” I replied. He grunted and walked over to get the order.

I ate the noodles quickly, warming my tired worn out body. I stood up, reached into my pocket, and started to hand the bartender the money when a hand reached out to stop mine in mid-air, sending tingles down my spine.

“I’ll take care of the tab,” a dark haired young man of about twenty-three said to the employee. I looked into the man’s deep, caring eyes and he smiled.

“You don’t have to,” I answered meekly.

“No, but you caught my attention while you were sitting at the bar. Let me do this one thing for you at least.” He handed the barkeep a ten dollar bill and said, “Keep the change.”

We walked out of the Thai restaurant together.

“How much farther do you have to go?” he asked.

“Not much, I live right down the block.”

“May I walk you?”

I nodded. The rain had slowed, but large drops of water kept hitting my head. I shivered. The young man put his arm around my shoulders.

“I hope you don’t mind, but a pretty thing like you shouldn’t be allowed to be cold.”

I blushed but I liked the comfort of someone walking beside me.

“What’s your name?” I asked.

“My name is Jay, what’s yours sweetie?”

“Starr.” He smiled at me.

“I like it.” I blushed again.

We reached my apartment complex and I led him up the steps to the outside door.

“Would you like to come in?” He looked at me and nodded.

“Of course.”

I don’t know why this man had me so flustered, but I wanted to see more of him. We walked up a flight of stairs and I unlocked the door to my apartment, 1B. I flicked on the kitchen light and walked inside, removing my coat and shoes. Jay followed suit and removed his shoes and coat too, handing his coat to me. I turned back around towards the door and hung then on the coatrack.

“You can go sit on the couch if you want,” I said pointing to the left of the kitchen. “Would you like some tea?”

“I’d love some tea.”

I walked into the kitchen, filled two cups with water and stuck them in the microwave for two minutes. I waited until the buzzer went off and put an orange ginger tea bag into each cup. I meandered into the living room and handed Jay a cup. He took the cup away from my outstretched hand, and brushed against my fingers. He brought the china to his lips and blew lightly. That single action made my knees quiver. He noticed my involuntary movement and smiled.

“Come here and sit by me,” he said, patting the couch space beside him. I sat down instantly in one fluid motion, surprisingly not spilling a drop of tea. I sat the teacup on the coffee table and looked into his eyes. He set his teacup down so gracefully on the table that the cup looked like it was floating. He moved his hand to my face and brushed my cheek lightly. I moved into the touch and closed my eyes. I felt him coming towards me and a feather soft kiss was presented on my lips. I moaned into the kiss.

A part of me was terrified that this stranger had won my mind and body over so completely. My body won the battle and I put my hand on his muscled chest. He leaned me back on the couch, straddling my body. My hands went up under his shirt, exploring the soft skin that was under them. I slipped the shirt over his head, feasted my eyes on his body, and licked my lips. He picked me up off the couch and carried me to my bedroom. I wasn’t sure how he knew which door it was, but it didn’t bother me.

He laid me gently down on the bed and unbuttoned my dress shirt. He lightly touched my skin with his fingers then bent down towards my stomach. He kissed near my bellybutton and worked his way up to my breasts, teeth grazing my skin the whole way.

One hand moved up to my bra and unhooked it in the front, face never leaving my skin. His hand played with my left breast while he started suckling my right. He bit down on my nipple, causing me to arch my back.

His hand went to my pants, sliding them down as best as he could. He unbuttoned his own pants and took them off with an almost catlike grace. He finished taking my pants off, threw them across the room, and positioned himself between my legs.

“Do you truly want this?”

“Yes,” I managed to whisper out.

He slowly slid himself into my wet inside. I gasped at the size of him. He pulled himself out and forced himself back in. I grunted in pleasure, wrapped my legs around his body and tried to force him to go deeper. I started kissing every part of his chest I could reach, randomly nipping and licking his tan skin.

The rhythm of our hips increased steadily and my breaths got few and far between. He bent down with an almost feral instinct and latched onto my neck. My eyes fluttered and dug my nails into his back.

I was lost in a dizzying array of pain and ecstasy. My body was giving in to the pulsations and I latched him inside me, orgasm taking over. He tilted his head back and growled releasing his warmth between my legs. He collapsed on top of me, and that was the last thing I remembered before falling asleep under him.
