CHAPTER 15 | SEXUAL TENSION

LORENZO'S POV

A few days later...

The sexual tension between Echo and I has gotten to a point where it is unbearable and it's driving me crazy. I am horny all the time and having sex with her is the only thought constantly leaving rent free in my head.

"I can't sleep like this." I can't sleep with this aching bulge in my pants. "I need a cold shower." Maybe it will help me sleep well. "Unggghh." I groan in pain as I tried to get out of pain, I am probably going to die of blue balls.

I made my way to the bathroom to have a cold shower and within a few minutes, I decided to step out before I get tempted to do something else. "You are here." I noted when I stepped out of the bathroom and saw Echo sitting on my bed.

Honestly, the last thing I want is her in my room because I will just get turned on for nothing and I really don't want that.

"Yeah." She smiled a little as she stared at me. I am practically naked with just my towel loosely tied around my waist. "Are you okay?" I asked as she stood up and levitated towards me, looking sexy as ever.

She came behind me and leaned in so close, I could almost feel her. "I want you." She whispered in my ears with a low soft and breathier voice, her breath tickling my ears and I shivered. Damn.

"I want you too, badly if I must add." I pointed to the bulge in my towel, I have been battling with my want for a few days now. "But I can't have you." It fucking hurt because I want her right now.

I plopped on my bed with my face up, watching the intensity in her eyes, there is no doubt that she wants me as much as I want her, it's just unfortunate that it's not possible. At least not right now, maybe even never.

"Let's try, let's try the kiss." Honestly, I don't want to give myself any unnecessary hope tonight, I went to have a cold shower to help be sleep and here I am getting worked up all over again but it's obvious that she wants to try and I really can't turn her down.

"Are you sure because I don't mind waiting, I am willing to wait for as long as it takes." Well I hope it won't be for too long but I don't want her to feel pressured to do this.

"I am sure, I want to try. I think I will get it right, I have been practicing." Even if it doesn't work, I am already impressed knowing that she practiced and put in effort to make it work.

Before I could say anything else, she moved closer and hovered over me while I am still laying in bed.

My heart thudded painfully in my chest as I waited in anticipation. I stared at her every move, every action until she looked at me, her smile fading into something softer... something more intense as our eyes locked and everything around us seemed still.

Slowly and carefully, I lifted my hand. My fingers hovered just above her cheek, like I was touching her but not exactly.

"Ready?" She asked and I nodded immediately. She leaned into me and for a breathless moment, I could feel the faintest pressure, like static electricity pull against my skin. Weird but I value every connection I get from her.

Echo's lips parted, her breath ghosting over mine as she leaned in close... Her eyelids fluttered closed as she tilted her head, about to close the gap and I have never been more eager for a kiss than now.

I closed my eyes, waiting to feel something, anything, even if it's a ghost feathery touch but I felt nothing. "Fuck." I cursed when I opened my eyes and moments later, she opened her eyes, blinking up at me, sadness and longing evident in her eyes.

"This is not going to work." She moved away from me while actively avoiding making eye contact with me. "I'm sorry." She added.

"Come on Echo, this is not your fault. Don't worry, we will get it right some other time." I got up from my laying down position as I assured her even though I am not sure of the possibility of that happening.

"I just feel so bad for not being able to help you, I see how frustrated and horny you are... I need to be able to do something." It's sweet that she wants to help but she can't force it now and I understand.

"It's fine Echo, I can handle it."

"I think I know how to help..." She pointed out but there is really no need, the earlier we accept that there is nothing she can do as a ghost, the better for us... Although she got my attention, I am curious to know how she can help.

"Help... how exactly?" I asked curiously as I sat on the bed while staring at her. There is a mischievous smile on her face and it's making me more curious.

Echo floated down towards me, practically straddling my lap. Well, as much as a ghost could, her translucent form hovered just above me, close enough that I could feel the soft tingle of her energy brushing against my skin.

"What are you trying to do?" I asked curiously as she smirked mischievously.

"Well I can touch you, right?" She asked as she pushed me to lay down with her cold finger on my chest. "I am thinking that I can help you with a hand job, since I can touch you." She smiled and I appreciate the gesture but I am not sure it will work out. "Let’s call it... a ghostly favor."

"Ummm, it's a good suggestion but it's not necessary, I can do it myself. You don't have to bother." I stated because I don't think I can handle another failed attempt.

"Just let me do it." She reached out with both hands, her fingers gliding down my chest, lower, lower, and my body reacted instantly to every move she makes, blood roaring in my ears, my muscles tightening.

Her hands found their destination or... tried to as she fuddled with my towel. The movement on my towel is like a faint pressure, like a warm breeze teasing through my towel.

"Fuck." I sucked in a sharp breath, every nerve ending on fire and I am so fucking impatient at this point, I can literally die if I don't get a release soon. "Holy... shit, Echo. Let me do it."

"Oh my goodness." Echo screamed and scared me as soon as I removed my towel and my dick sprung up to life like a freed caged animal.

"What is it?" I asked worriedly.

"You are so huge." She noted and I almost laughed. "It's a good thing that I am a ghost."

"How is that a good thing?" I asked curiously.

"Have you seen the size of your dick, there is no way it can fit in." She pointed out while looking genuinely scared and I couldn't help but I laugh. "It's not funny Enzo." It actually is.

"Don't be ridiculous, it's not that big." I teased.

"It's way too big for me but let me focus on what I am trying to do."

"Oh shit." I shivered as she touched my cap with her finger. "That's good." She ran her finger down my length as I anticipated more.

But then, just as I was about to feel relaxed and confident that this is going to work, her hand phased through me completely when she tried to wrap her hand around my rock hard dick. "Fuck... Are you KIDDING ME?" I asked in disbelief when it dawned on me that I am fucked because her actions just made my situation more unbearable. It's like someone pulling a plug out of the wall, the sensation from her finger instantly vanished... Gone, nothing.

"Grrrrraaahhh!" I let out the most guttural, strangled noise of frustration and to my surprise, Echo burst out laughing, practically falling over midair.

"Oh my God, you should have seen your face." She said while laughing but I don't find it funny, I am fucking frustrated as it is. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't be laughing but it's really funny." She added when she noticed me glaring at her, while adjusting myself and fixing my towel.

"You are evil. Evil in a cute little ghost package." I stated teasingly.

I mean I am pretty upset at the false hope but it's not exactly her fault, she was only trying to help and I can't be mad at her for that.

"I am sorry, but you have to know that ghost sex is experimental." I will prefer to stop all the experiments because it's making things even worse. At this point, I can literally fuck anything and I mean anything.

"I’m gonna die. I'm literally going to die of ghost-induced blue balls and experiments, let's just stop trying and focus on something else."

"Fine, I will stop. Love you, handsome!" She floated out of my room and through the door before I could say anything else.
