A Little Too Late

*Eric*

Last night was truly amazing. I usually have a good time at the club, but not like that. Not enough to take someone home. I’d been so stressed and busy lately that I had to let off some steam, so when my friends suggested I go to the club with them, I didn’t want to turn them down. Not that I ever really do, but that’s beside the point.

When I saw that woman walk into the club in that dress, my eyes set on her and never left. I knew I had to have her. The way the lights danced across her sun-kissed skin and the way her hips and ass moved to the music intrigued me even more. I had to make a move. So when I saw an empty seat next to her at the bar, I had to seize the opportunity. She was stunning, even inebriated; she had looked beautiful. When I walked up to her, she smelled even better than I thought. Her scent was intoxicating. Notes of vanilla and cashmere. I was enchanted at that point.

She was very easy to talk to and interesting as well. I was surprised to be having an actual conversation with someone who wasn’t so superficial as the rest of the girls I’ve met. She was also very good at banter. That had to be the best part; she could joke too. I didn’t want to let her go just yet; I wanted more of her time, so I invited her to dance. I was more than happy she agreed. I didn’t quite expect to get as hard as I did when she danced on me. When she didn’t move away from me, it only made me want her more.

You can only imagine the excitement I had when I offered to take her home, and she left with me. It was a fantasy come true. The entire ride home, all I could do was picture her riding my face as she shifted in the seat, exposing more of her thigh tattoo. Damn that dragon wrapped around her thigh nestled in flowers drove me insane. I could barely contain myself.

Stepping through the threshold of my door, I only had one thing on my mind: to taste her. Every bit she’d let me put in my mouth. After helping her to the couch, I was going to wait and just let her sit for a while. Then she kissed me, and all sense of decency went out the window. I wanted to devour her. With her consent, of course. I don’t think pussy is exactly worth going to jail for, so I was elated when she agreed to fuck me. She tasted so sweet in my mouth that it was better than I imagined.

Her shivering against my lips just fueled my desire even more. I wanted to slide in and take my time talking her through it, but I was so excited and a bit buzzed to wait. I hate I didn’t have enough energy to make her cum until the sun came up, but what I did get was amazing. I can’t even explain how good it was. I need more.

I opened my eyes and stretched, hoping to see the woman who gave me a happy ending in the daylight, only to be seriously disappointed when she wasn’t there next to me like she was when I went to sleep. I was really looking forward to continuing what we started. Like I said, I needed some more of that.

“FUCK”, I yelled as I got up to look and see if she could still be here. I became annoyed upon realizing she’d left without a trace. No phone number or social media. I didn’t even get a name. How the fuck did I not get her name?! How am I supposed to track her down now? I felt defeated as I rubbed my hands down my face in frustration.

Before my thoughts could overtake me, my phone rang. It was my sister.

“Hello?”

“Eww, Eric, why do you sound so gross?”

“What does that even mean?”

“Anyway, I finally did it.”

“Yay?….Did what exactly?”

“I left. Well, I’m leaving Josh.”

Josh is my sister’s boyfriend and child’s father. At one point, they were engaged until he started drinking and putting his hands on her. I’d thought the final straw would’ve been when he knocked my niece out of her hands when she was a baby after hitting my sister. I’d beat his ass over that, but she still went back. It was hard to protect Kacie when she’d always return to him, so as of late, I’ve left her to figure it out. And just like always, I ended up in her mess.

“To do what?”

“Aren’t you the least bit happy that I’m finally getting away from him? You’ve been preaching about it all these years. I thought you’d be happy.”

“I’m sorry, Kacie. I’m just a bit frustrated right now, but yes, of course, I’m very happy you finally listened. What’s your plan, though?”

“What’s got your panties in a bunch?”

“Kacie… I said trying to hold back my agitation. “It’s not about me right now. What’s your plan?”

“Ugh, I don’t know, E. I may go back to live with Mom and Dad, or I was hoping I could stay with you. At least for the time being until I get a place of my own.”

“And what about Kayla?”

“I’ve been looking at a school near you that seems really good for her, and I was thinking… maybe you could help drop her off or pick her up while I work.”

“Work?!”

“Oh, don’t give me that. Yes, I just landed a new job that’s in your area, so I won’t be too far.”

“From who?!”

“From you and Kayla in case of emergencies.”

I tried to act surprised, but deep down, Kacie was always like this. She’d make hasty decisions and just expect someone to help her at the drop of a dime. Don’t get me wrong, I love her and my niece, and I don’t mind helping, but a little heads up wouldn’t hurt either.

“Goodness, Kace, when were you going to tell me? I feel a little bombarded.”

“Come on, brother, please! You can’t possibly expect me to live with Mom and Dad. They’re unbearable and still strict. I can’t live under those conditions. I’m not a child anymore.”

“How long are you planning to stay?”

“Indefinitely.”

“Ugh,” I grunted.

“Whatever you love me”, she replied jokingly.

“If you see a sock on the door, respect it and don’t eat all of my cereal”, I laughed.

“Seriously, E, you’re so gross.”

“Whatever you love me”, I said mockingly. “I’ll bring the truck to get your stuff.”

“OK, thank you so much! See you soon!”

After we hung up, I went to go take a shower in hopes of not only getting clean, but also to keep my mind from wandering.
