Carolina's mind had finally grasped the current situation at hand. Her tears had stopped flowing so freely now. Her mother was still lying in a hospital bed, unconscious. Carolina felt just as helpless as her mother. The hum of the overhead fluorescent light made time with the sound of the respirator.
It was a somber, yet familiar feeling. Would this be her life? She wondered. Endless hospital visits. Always on the cusp of special intimacy with someone she wanted. It was all so pathetically inadequate. It was her life.
Even when she got close to someone her mother's health and wellbeing always loomed in the back of her mind. Her current relationship was proof of that. She felt guilty for the anger that simmered
Geo arrived back at the hospital several hours later. He hadn't expected his appointment to go on all day. In fact, Geo had been ready to go back shortly after his meeting with China had ended, but that was to not be. Just when he was about to leave, Mr. Jarcone had come back to his office and needed his approval on the area he had picked out in the basement of Montclair industries. Geo had to hand it to him, Jarcone had already found an off to the side, well-hidden area that could be easily turned into a large office space. Once Mr. Jarcone saw Geo's face and that his selection was satisfactory he reached into his right breast pocket of his suit jacket and pulled out another sheet of paper. "I gather my choice is to your liking?" He asked, verifying what his eyes had shown him. "It is. Wha
Geo found his way back to the room. Once inside, he saw Carolina asleep in the lone hospital chair that sat facing the bed.He walked over to her. She looked like a beautiful princess sleeping peacefully and unbothered by the cares of the world.He thought about the circumstances that had brought them together and realized in just a very short time Carolina was one of the most genuine, honest, and caring person he had met in a long time. He didn't know how or why he deserved it, but he knew he had to make sure their time together was well spent.He walked forward and knelt down in front of her. He reached up and gently caressed her cheek.She stirred. Her eyes fluttered open. She smil
"May I have one?" She asked him. He was confused. "A drink." She clarified for him. "May I have a drink?" "Yes, of course. What would you like? We have Scotch, Gin, and Whiskey." They all sounded strong, and horrible to her, but she needed to relax. Strong alcohol had the quickest effect. "Whiskey, please." She told him. He poured her a liberal amount in a crystal glass, walked over to her, and placed it in her right hand. She noticed his glass had been refilled. His gaze was directly on her. "Come, Please, tell me about your day." He guided her to the loveseat.&nb
There was a long pause. He looked as if he were devouring her with his eyes. She almost felt like looking away, but wouldn't dare. She had never had a man desire her like this, and she felt the same way about him. "It better," he said. His tone was possessive. She had seen his flirty side, and his sexy side, but his possessive, jealous side was something she didn't think was possible, and therefore would never see. He was still rubbing her back. The gentle feeling relaxing her. All Geo wanted was to bury himself in between Carolina's soft thighs. She leaned down and placed her hand on his groin. He pulled her mouth down to his and moaned inside of hers as their tongues found each other, deliciously swirling. His hands moved down further and lifted h
He felt her legs wrap around his waist tighter to hold him in place. He saw no tears or signs of pain he may have caused when he had entered her. There appeared to be none. She was unique, he surmised. He kissed the tip of her nose then placed one on her lips. She spoke then. "Please, don't stop." Pause. " I'm sorry I didn't tell you I jus-" He silenced her with another passionate kiss and slowly worked his hips. She was quiet at first, but after a few more of his agonizingly good strokes, her breathing changed and he could feel her walls responding to him. She was exquisitely tight and all passion underneath him. His thrusts came faster now, and she was holding on to his shirt to keep her bearings. He
She had finally lost her virginity, she thought to herself. To a gangster's son, a nasty voice in the back of her mind noted. She was officially his companion. It didn't feel like it. She realized then that had she not answered the newspaper ad, she wouldn't have met him. She also realized if he told her there was no money she would still possibly want to still sleep with him again. He was a very skillful lover. She still didn't buy what he said about being single either. "Are you enjoying yourself?" He asked, breaking her train of thought. "Yes, I am." She sighed. "I can tell." "How?" She was curious now.
He sat up at her question then and rested his right hand on the small of her back. She looked at him. "Yes, Carolina. You are safe with me." "And when I'm not?" "That won't happen. Why all this? I don't understand." "I just... You're my first, and I'd like to know more about you. I think you owe me that considering you've become so enmeshed in me and my mother's life in such a short time frame." He hadn't considered that. "You are right. Forgive me." He gently pulled her to him. She rested her head on his shoulder. He kissed the top of her head and gently laid them both back down on the bed. He sighed.
She was happy to be back home. It was quiet. The silence reminded her of what had happened and why her mother wasn't here. She tried to shake the eerie feeling off and went to the kitchen. She noticed both of their places were still in the same place. She picked both up and dumped their contents in the trash bin, then she put the plates in the sink. When that was done, she went upstairs and decided to shower and change. She had school work to turn in. She grabbed a towel from the linen closet and went into the bathroom. She turned the water on, checked the temperature, and when it was perfect, she undressed and got into the shower. The hot water felt good on her skin. She relaxed as it ran over her. She washed her hair, arms, and breasts. When she washed her thighs, she felt the dull soreness there. She hadn't even noticed it earlier.
