It's All Relative(8)



Feeling him, hearing him, the eroticism of the moment hit her all at once, igniting her climax, and she started coming for a second time. Clutching each other, they rode out their joint orgasms together, and as he released inside her, Jessie’s slow mind suddenly remembered the one tiny little thing she’d forgotten in the heat of the moment…the condom tucked away in her purse. Oops.





Kai was still enjoying the last lingering remnants of his outstanding release when Jessie’s phone started ringing. It took a moment for Kai to register what the odd, musical sound was and where it was coming from. Really, it took his slow mind a minute to register anything other than—that was the best orgasm I’ve ever had. As he panted on her shoulder, he felt her shift beneath him, like she was uncomfortable.

Not wanting to crush her, he pulled out and shifted to her side. Jessie ran her hands through her dark brown hair, her chocolate eyes closing. Kai had been mesmerized by those eyes in the club. He’d never seen eyes that dark that had also been that alive. They’d trapped him almost instantly, even before all the booze she’d poured down his willing throat. Combined with the way she moved and the aggressive way she talked, and he was hers, she could have done anything she wanted to him. He smiled as he considered that, in a way, she had.

He ran a finger through a ringlet of her dark hair, loving the way it wrapped around him, possessing him. Her satisfied eyes shifted to him, running down his body before flicking back up to his face. “God, that was…”

She trailed off as she finally heard her phone ringing. Adorably scrunching her face into an expression of concern and annoyance, she started looking for the source of the sound. “Shit,” she exclaimed, as she searched around his mattress. Her lean, toned body twisted in intriguing ways as she started rummaging through their clump of clothes, desperately trying to find the culprit. With an almost frantic look in her blurry eyes, she sat up and stared at him. “What time is it?”

Sitting up, Kai wondered why time was an issue. He wasn’t kicking her out or anything. “I have no idea. Why?” Thinking she might just be looking for an excuse to leave, he added, “I know I don’t have much, but you can stay.”

Shaking her head, she slipped on her underwear and attempted to put on her bra. She had a little trouble enclosing those wonderfully full breasts in the fabric though. Kai brushed some of her hair over her shoulder, so he could help her with the clasp on the back. Since she seemed to be in a hurry, he resisted the urge to kiss the top of her shoulder when he was done. Jessie gave him a grateful smile for the help, but firmly shook her head again. “She’s gonna kill me if I don’t—” She cut off as her phone stopped ringing. “Shit!” she exclaimed again.

Kai grabbed her dress for her as she ran a hand through her hair. Concern filled him as he watched her; she looked a little panicked now. “What? Who is going to kill you?”

Grabbing the dress, Jessie staggered to her feet as she slipped it over her head. Pulling on his underwear, Kai stood beside her; he felt himself swaying a little as well. His head swam as he tried to focus on her face. She was quickly becoming more and more frustrated as she looked around his boxes for the purse she’d flung into his apartment earlier. “Harmony. She’s going to kill me if she can’t get ahold of me.”

Kai came around the other side of the mattress. On the way, he noticed a small shiny bag poking between his box of books and an open box of dishes. Careful to not fall over, he bent down and picked it up. Walking around to where Jessie was now digging through a box of clothes, he handed her the purse. Wildly searching through the box, she didn’t notice what he was giving her. “Here,” he said quietly, wondering if she would take off the minute she had it. Not hearing him, Jessie started muttering that this Harmony person was going to call her father, and then S.W.A.T. would be knocking down the door. Furrowing his brow and hoping she was exaggerating, Kai tapped her shoulder with the bag to get her attention. “Jessie, here.”

Finally noticing him, Jessie paused and glanced his way. Looking relieved, she straightened as she grabbed the bag. “Oh, thank you, um…yeah, thank you.” Biting her lip, she opened the purse and pulled out her phone. Kai noticed a small packet drop to his floor, but he ignored it as he began to wonder if Jessie even remembered his name.

With his vision starting to spin, Kai sat down on his bed, then laid back. He’d overdone it at the bar, and he was beginning to pay the price for it; his pleasant buzz was taking an unpleasant turn. Jessie pressed a couple buttons on her phone, then started stumbling back and forth, like she was pacing. Kai ran both hands back through his hair, and focused on taking deep breaths—in through his nose and out though his mouth. Maybe her leaving right now was an excellent idea. He didn’t want to ruin the memory of their night together by throwing up in front of her.

As Kai tried to calmly breathe through the discomfort churning in his stomach, he listened to Jessie connect with her friend on the phone, “Hey. No, I’m fine. I couldn’t find the phone. Yes, I’m dressed.” She sounded a little agitated at that, and Kai peeked up at her. Her beautiful lips were set in an adorable pout as she leaned back with a hand on her hip. Kai smiled, but then his vision of her started to twist, and he shut his eyes. That made everything start to spin, so he opened his eyes to stare at one spot on his ceiling.

“You’re in front of the building? Okay, okay…God. I’m coming down,” he heard her say.
