Harriet~

“He knows you've been eye fucking him all evening,” Shirley says taking a sip of her alcoholic drink. The music isn’t loud enough that anyone needs to shout but it’s enough to keep the party I’m at moving.

“You can't blame me, he looks so good I am actually down to reach second base with him, despite him being a total stranger,” I tell her trying to pretend like he didn't just catch me staring at him again

Shirley whistles. “Go girl. Never thought I'd see the day you'd go wild. If you keep at it you may get rid of that card tonight.”

I blush furiously looking around to see if anyone else had just heard what she said. “You’re loud Shir, besides I said just second base. I’m not having sex with a stranger.”

She shrugs and takes another sip of her drink. I take a chug of mine as well noting that I’ve barely paid it attention in the past half an hour and it’s getting warm.

Shirley and her boyfriend made come home a day earlier than I was supposed to just to make me tag along for this party. Despite my aversion to crowded places, I decided to come, maybe because my life is so boring lately that I need some form of spice.

“I’ll be right back doll, I think Jacob has been drinking for far too long. If you need me, call me.” She says patting my shoulder softly and going in search of her boyfriend.

I sigh and let the party sink under my skin. It’s barely eighteen days to Christmas and it already feels like it. Everyone is partying to hard because they know if a few days they’ll be helping out at home with tree, gifts and socks preparation.

I’m just as excited, my foster parents have always made Christmas memorable and somehow because of school I missed last year, this year? No fucking way I’m missing it.

I feel a presence at my back before I hear a voice. “Hey beautiful,” the person greets.

I turn around to see myself staring in the eyes of the guy I’d been eye-fucking all evening.

Spit forms in my mouth and I swallow it uneasily.

“Um hey, handsome?”

Handsome doesn’t come close to describing the ethereal man before me, he looks like a movie character.

He had blonde hair in a low taper fade, piercings on his ears and his nose which I can clearly see from up close and his full eyebrows have a slit that adds to his bad boy but responsible look. He stands much taller than I do that I have to tilt my head to look at him.

My stomach twists and heats up as I stare at him.

“I’ve paid just as much attention to you tonight as you have to me that I thought it’d be smart to make a move,” he says and I giggle.

I fucking giggle. What the fuck is wrong with me?

“Oh really?” I say in a seductive voice.

“Yes baby.”

Heat builds between my legs.

It must be the alcohol swirling through my brain and the bad combination of an extremely close contact with him that must have me feeling both entranced and aroused by the second.

“Can I touch you?”

“Yes.” My lips are answering before my brain has time to think.

He chuckles and reaches for my waist pulling me closer.

“You’re so pretty,” he compliments me again staring into my eyes.

It’s hard to tell what color his eyes are but they look just as dark as his hair and I feel myself getting sucked in.

My voice comes out breathlessly “Thank you.”

He nods and looks away, keeping his arm on my waist and my body a hair’s breath away from his.

“What do you have there?” He asks suddenly, nodding to the cup in my hand.

I have no idea, Shirley had given it to me after we walked in and while it contains alcohol, I’m certain it’s only in a little quantity.

“Idk, my friend gave it to me.”

“Where is she?”

I shrug. She said to call her if I need her, besides she’s with her boyfriend and I’m perfectly contented to stay with this stranger, I’m perfectly contented to stand close to him in the hopes of getting just one kiss.

One night of a little recklessness and I’d resume my life. Second base doesn’t make me bad enough to not make a Christmas wish does it?

Following the line of my haphazard thoughts, I close my eyes and make a wish for an early Christmas.

Santa please let me kiss this boy.

I open my eyes to him tugging me even closer to his body to feel the heat of him radiating directly.

Dear Santa…

He lowers his head to my ears and speaks directly into them.

“How good are you with alcohol?” He asks, his breath fanning my lobes and I feel myself shiver in delight.

“I’ve already had some tonight but I’m pretty good,” I lie.

“How about we go play a little game, winner gets what winner wants,” he proposes.

Mentally, I go through the pros and cons and end up disregarding the list.

“Sure, but how about a kiss for good luck.”

He pulls back and his eyes shine.

“Yes, I’d like that.”

His other hand snakes around my waist and down my hips, hanging dangerously about my ass. I hear my own heart pounding in my ears as he brings his lips close to mine and presses his lips softly.

His hand finally touches my ass in its descent downwards, reaching to cup it and give it a firm squeeze making me help and him invading my mouth with his tongue.

His hand squeezes as his tongues licks and heat curls through my core. as my lust builds.

Is this how it feels?

He kisses me leisurely, taking his time and I kiss him back like my life depends on it. His hands let go of my ass cheek and slides over to the other one and gives it a very firm pat.

“All that good luck is for me,” he says as he pulls away.

My cheeks heat up and look away from him. Do I want him to win? I don’t know. Before I know it, he is tugging at my wrist and pulling me away to the other side of the party where no one but a table filled with littered cups and a keg of what I assume is alcohol is.

“Beer pong?” I ask hoping it’s a game I’m at least familiar with through the books I’ve read.

“Fuck no, let’s toss a coin and leave it completely up to fate. Pick a side baby, heads or tails.”

My chest throbs.

Completely up to fate, I win we hit second base, he wins… I don’t fucking know.

“Heads.”

He gives me a dark grin that makes him look even more sexier than he has been all evening.

He reaches his back pocket for a coin and flips it in the air…

  • It should have been just once   Chapter 5: Like a sister

    Harriet~ By the time we finish eating, the whole house smells like onions and pepper and something faintly citrusy that must’ve been on Devon’s hands. He barely speaks while we wash up. He just nods when I pass him a plate, grunts something that sounds like thanks, and keeps his gaze fixed anywhere except on me. It’s ridiculous because he’s seen every part of me, dragged orgasm out of me with a stranger’s ease, but now he can’t even look at my face. Fine. Two can play that game. The night settles slowly around the house. I hear the old pipes groan when he goes down the hallway to brush his teeth, hear his footsteps soften like he’s trying not to disturb me even though I’m the only other human inside this grey, too-quiet house. I take my toiletries to the bathroom, partly because I want to shower and partly because I’m avoiding the moment where we both lie in that room pretending the memory of last night doesn’t hover between us like smoke. I turn the water on hot. Steam fog

  • It should have been just once   Chapter 4: Dev… Von

    Harriet~No one talks about how weird your home town feels after not being there in a long while.The cashier is a woman I used to know but she looks older and more tired now and she keeps looking at me weirdly.The first grocery shop doesn’t have everything I need so I head to a second one.This grocery shop is much newer with more friendly faces. The attendants are super nice and friendly it takes me less than ten minutes to finish shopping and queue up at the counter.“Thank you,” a familiar voice says and my bones chill.How the fuck would I forget the voice that talked me through it.“Von?” He spins around and smiles.what am amazing coincidence.“Hey darling…” he turns to the cashier. “I’d pay for her shit.”Oh my fucking goodness, he is so sweet. She attends to ‘my shit’ and he pays and we leave together for his car. He opens the trunk and I deposit my stuff and he also gets the door for me.“Never thought I’d see you in broad-day light.” I tell him when he gets into the car.

  • It should have been just once   Chapter 3: the past

    Harriet~ “Hi mum, I just arrived.” I lie getting ready to head home. My foster parents have no idea that I’ve been back for a day now, came in yesterday, attended a party with Shirley and fucked a stranger named Von out of my own sheer stupidity and I can’t even find a place in me to regret it. I’m no longer a virgin but I can’t even tell Shirley the story because she probably won’t understand. “Hi darling, did you get my text last night?” I check my phone to see it had come in around the same time Von was giving me aftercare. Wait. “Mum what do you mean by I’d be spending the Christmas with Dev? I haven’t seen him in years and suddenly You're leaving me alone with him?” Dev was the boy who loved me like a sister just before we got adopted. After our adoption we grew so wide apart that he only spoke to my foster parents not me, for reasons I never knew. “Listen baby…” I cringe as the endearment, the lady person who called me that was a stranger and he was touching me

  • It should have been just once   Chapter 2: Tails

    Harriet~ “Let’s go on a tour,” he says snatching the coin off the table. He wins and he wants to take me on a fucking tour? Disappointments settles in my throat and I gulp it down. He reaches for me again, putting his arm around my waist and leading me towards a staircase. We walk together silently each of us in our own world. I’m nursing my disappointment and he is… well doing his shit. We walk to the first floor and he leads me down a passage and stops beside a door and fishes out a key. I wordlessly watch him insert the key, unlock the door and guides me into the dark room before walking in himself and shutting the door. He flips a switch and the room is illuminated by a soft blue light that doesn’t lighten up the entire room but I can tell that it’s a bedroom that is well lived in. “Where…” “My friend lent me the room for a month, I needed us to get away from the noise.” The closes the door. He takes my hand and leads me to a soft divan and helps me to sit.
