Chapter 31

KATE.
I sat at the edge of my tub, shaving my legs and hands. Drew and I were finally going to have sex and I was determined it was going to be special.
When I had everywhere shaved and smooth, I stepped under the hot water spraying from the shower. I washed my hair with some of the hair products I'd gotten from the hair salon –the kind that made my hair extraordinarily soft.
I lathered up, rinsed off and stepped out of the shower. I wrapped a towel around my body then wrapped my hair with another one. I opened my closet, and got a black Victoria Secret lacy pant and bra set that I'd gotten the last time I went lingerie shopping with Bailey. Black looked really good on me.
I doned them then unwrapped my hair to blow-dry it. I got a black leggings from my closet, paired with a purple hoodie. The combo made me look really young, but I guess I wasn't that old anyway. I knew a lot of people that would kill to look young.
I grabbed my purse and my phone then made my way out of the apartment. I decided to call Drew just to make sure he was home.
"Hey. Are you home? "
"Yeah. Come over. " he said impatiently.
I couldn't help the giggle that escaped my lips. It thrilled me that he was impatient to see me. I thought at this stage he'd already have gotten bored with me, but if possible, he acted like he wanted me even more. And it felt really good. Safe, even. That I didn't have to worry about him running to another girl yet.
Yet. How was I going to cope when we finally broke up and me moved on to another girl? God. It would kill me. Destroy me. I was already in love with him. And sometimes, it just wanted to slip my mouth and come out, but I always clamped my mouth shut at the last moment. I didn't know how he would feel about it just yet, and I didn't want to come off clingy and desperate.
I decided to make a quick stop for grocery, in case Drew didn't have much in his fridge seeing as he lived alone. Barely lived there even. I wasn't really in a cooking mood right now, but all it took was the right ingredients and just like that, you'd find me in the kitchen. The right ingredients always turned me on. Okay, that sounded way more weird than it did in my head, but whatever.
I pushed my basket down the rows, throwing a variety of vegetables in, along with some snacks that I loved –and some I hadn't tasted yet, but wanted to try. I passed a section where a spread of flowers were displayed and I found myself stopping.
Drew's place was a typical guy apartment. It showed luxury but it lacked that homey feeling. I didn't know how how a person could live in a place so devoid of feeling. Now that there was a touch of woman in his life, there were going to be changes. I threw two flowers in just because. I also grabbed a bar of chocolate that I had plans for.
I carted my goods to the register and waited in line for my turn. Which was not going to be anytime soon because about six people stood in front of me. I thought of Bailey and how I had been so preoccupied with Drew recently, I hadn't had her time. She understood I was going through stuff with him so she didn't pressure me on hanging out.
I sent a quick text to her.
Spending the night at Drew's.
Her reply came in almost instantly, as if she had been expecting a text from someone.
Have fun. xoxo
I shoved my phone into the pocket of my hoodie, twirling my apartment keys with my index finger. Someone behind me tapped my shoulder and I turned to check who the person was. I froze when I saw who it was.
"Oh my God. Kate Rossi? " her familiar high-pitched voice assaulted my ear drums.
"Yeah. " I squinted, "Sally Hawthorne.... Right? "
"Yes! " she giggled like I'd said some joke. You couldn't blame me for not recognizing her instantly though. With the humongous boobs in front of me, obscuring my vision and the sky-high ass that was high as a mountain –both of which weren't there seven years ago, she definitely didn't look like the same person.
"Oh my God. I knew it had to be you. Girl, your ass has always been spectacular, not to mention your hair. That was a dead giveaway. " she hit me on the shoulder lightly, as if we were friends.
Well, we used to be. But that was five years ago, not anymore. She tossed me to the curb the minute she realized I had lost everything –family, money and a house. That's when I knew she had only been friends with me because of who I had been. To be honest, I was ashamed that she I had been a best friend to her. I guess that was the thing with rich kids back in high school and college. Always wanting to belong and join the popular crowd. Thank God I wasn't that person anymore. Too bad it took my parents death to change that. But from the looks of it, she was still that person.
The line in front of me had decreased and it was just two people before me now.
"Wow, you look so good, Kate. "
"Thanks. You look really good too. " I was just trying to be polite. But she did look good though. She still had that natural beauty she always had, but there was some artificial thrown in. Her lips hadn't always been that big, I think maybe she had done lipo surgery. It was sad, really. Seeing what peer pressure and self-esteem issues could do to a person.
"What do you do? " she cocked her head.
"Um. " I blinked at the abrupt change of topic. "I work for Rutledge Towers. "
"You're kidding, right? Several times I sent an application letter to that company, but they never accepted me. "
I wonder why.
"What do you do? Receptionist or something? "
Oh, so she had asked just to know if she was doing better than me. I glanced at the line, saw it was one person down. I couldn't wait to get the hell out of here.
"Assistant to HR. " I said with a saccharine smile. Since she wanted to be that girl, there was no need trying to be nice to her.
Her mouth dropped open, "No way. You're like super successful. "
"Thanks. " I flipped my hair over my shoulder mockingly. That was her signature move.
"And, are those flowers I see in there? " she asked, eyeing my cart, "Do you like have a boyfriend? "
Oh my God. She just couldn't help herself. Not only was she plastic, she was annoying and nosy as hell. Who could put up with that? How had I put up with that?
"Whether I have a boyfriend or not, is none of your business, Sally. No offense. " the bitchy smile was still plastered on my face. Just because.
Her eyes widened slightly, "None taken. "
I turned around as the cashier started ringing up my purchases, and with the stink eye she was giving to Sally, I wondered if she had listened to some of our conversation.
As the cashier transferred my items to a to-go bag, she touched me again. Oh, what the hell did she want now?
"So, uh, can I like have your number? So we could like catch up on old times later? " Ugh. Her annoying use of the word like grated on my nerves.
I knew what she was trying to do. Now that we weren't friends anymore, I could see just how fucking transparent she was now. She'd figured I was doing pretty well and now she wanted us to be friends again. Well, she's five years too late for that.
"Um, no, not really. I like to keep my line private. I'm sure you understand. " I said with a condescending smile this time.
Her eyes widened and she reared her head back in shock. But before she could reply me, I collected my credit card from the smiling cashier and carried my bags, getting out of that place.
Past – 0, Kate – 1
I boarded a taxi to the penthouse. As I made my way inside, the doorman offered to help me with my bags but I politely refused, assuring him they were nothing, even though my arms were killing me. He was such a sweet, old man, and it was hard not to have a soft spot for him.
I entered the elevator and pushed the button for Drew's floor. I stepped into the penthouse, kicking my shoes off my the door and I found my man sitting shirtless, with one leg on top of the other, and his arm outstretched on the lounge, watching TV.
The view was nothing short of amazing.
DREW.
I looked up from my TV when the door to my penthouse slid open. Kate. I was so distracted by her presence that it took me a while to notice she was struggling with a lot of bags. Shit.
I rushed from the lounge to help her. I lifted one and frowned when I realized how heavy it was. What did she put in here? I took two more from her so she was left with just one.
"What do you have in here? "
"Stuffs. " she smiled sheepishly.
"You carried these all the way from downstairs. They're so fucking heavy. What the hell did you buy in here? " I scowled.
"It wasn't that much of an effort, Drew. Really. " she lifted up on her toes to kiss me on my lips, before walking into the kitchen.
I followed behind her, noting what she was wearing for the first time. She had on a leggings of some sort that did amazing things to her ass and a purple hoodie. With her shoes off, she looked so young. Too young. It gave me pause.
"How old are you? " I asked, just to be sure. I knew how old she was, it was in her files. But right now, without make up on, she looked unbelievably young.
"Twenty five. " she laughed lightly, "Why? "
"You look like 18. " I grumbled.
"Well, technically, I stopped growing at 18. "
She placed the bag on my kitchen counter and she motioned for me to drop the ones I was carrying there too. She dove into work, arranging the things –which I going out were groceries, in my counters one by one.
I leaned against the kitchen island, watching her as she worked, effortlessly in her own skin. It was as if she belonged right here. In my kitchen. In my house. And I knew it, deep down, she did.
My eyes dropped to her ass. It really did look magnificent in that thing. And if Kate's ass wasn't going to kill me, I didn't know what would.
"Do you have more of this? "
She looked behind her shoulder at me, "What? "
"This. " I pointed at her legs.
"Oh. Just a few. Why? "
"Do you mind if I buy you more? "
"You like them? " she asked, smiling slightly.
"No, I despise them. They're killing me. "
She laughed musically, throwing her head back. "Drew, Drew, Drew. " she produced a vase from one of the bags and put a flower into it, pouring water on it. She carried it and placed it beside the window.
"You bought flowers? "
"Yep. " she did the same to another one. This one, she placed on my island.
My home definitely felt different. I didn't fail to notice how I had started calling it my home lately. All it had ever been to me was my place, not home. But now that it had Kate's touch here and there, it definitely felt like a home.
I walked over to her, wrapping my arms around her from behind. I liked to do this. She felt so small and right in my arms. "Thank you. For this. "
"You don't have to thank me, Drew. This is me. I'm okay doing this. "
She turned in my arms, wrapping her hands around my neck. Her eyes were glued to my lips, and I would have laughed it lust wasn't riding me hard. I could barely see straight right now. All I could think about, want, need, was Kate.
I lifted her onto the counter then nudged her legs wider so I could settle between them. This was one of my favorite places on earth, standing between her legs.
"Permission to kiss you? "
"Yes, please. "
My lips landed on hers and I slipped my tongue inside her mouth. She moaned, her hands going down to my ass to pull me more snugly against her. Fuck, this girl. What she did to me.
Her hands roamed my back, tracing every dent it reached. She dragged them to my chest, feeling every plane if muscle.
"I love how hairless you are. " she breathed.
"If you love it, I love it. " I said absently, nipping at her lower lip. My hands went under her hoodie and I pulled away so I could take it off. "Arms up. " she complied, raising her hands up like an obedient kid. Although she wasn't a kid. She was a grown, sexy woman that I planned to have my way with.
I threw it somewhere on the counter but I didn't look to know where it landed, no. My eyes had way more important things to be doing. They were glued to the most perfect pair of breasts I'd ever seen in my entire life. Not too small, not too big, they were the right size for my hands.
"Damn, Kate. You're.... " I lost track of what I'd been about to say. I unhooked the front clasp of her bra, and there they were. Bared before my waiting eyes.
A groan escaped my lips as I cupped her back, making her arch and I dropped my head, tasting the tantalizing brown points of her breasts. They weren't pink, they were brown. And while a small part of my brain registered this, the bigger part couldn't think at all right now.
I turned my attention to the other nipple, treating it with the same attention I'd given to the other one. She slipped her hands into my hair, holding me in place.
"Yes, just like that. "
"If you tell me what to do one more time, I'll stop. " I warned.
"I'm sorry. " she murmured, biting her lip, waiting for me to continue. But her hands didn't leave my hair. I chuckled, going back to my task. She just couldn't help it even if she tried to. She was bossy in the bedroom, and I couldn't wait to see more of that.
"Let my hair go, Kate. " I said, just to see what she would do.
"Oh, give me something. " she huffed, "I'll be good. I won't say anything, I promise. " she panted.
I rose back to my full height, feeling a sudden urgency to have her. Slow wouldn't do anymore. I had wanted her for so long, so fucking long. It was almost hard to believe she was really here, wilfully giving herself to me.
I tugged on the waistband of her leggings and she lifted her ass off the counter so I could take it off. I rolled it down and saw she was wearing matching panties. They were sexy as fuck.
I dragged the elastic band of the panties and removed my finger, letting it snap against her skin. She shivered, a moan escaping her lips."Drew... "
"Now you know how I felt when you did that to me. "
She pouted briefly before her hands made quick work is dropping my sweatpants. I kicked them off. I fingered her panties absently, staring at her. "Look, Kate, usually I have more finesse than this. I'd eat you out, make sure you're ready for me. " I paused, "But I'm walking a fine line between sanity and insanity right now. I just need to be inside you, Kate. "
"Okay. " she shifted so her ass was at the edge of the counter.
"Do you want to –"
"Whatever, Drew. Just get in me. " she snapped, tugging on my briefs. Jesus. She was something else when she was horny.
"I was just going to ask if you want to take this upstairs. " I explained, laughing.
"Well, I'm good right here. Get on with it. " she glared at me.
I rolled my briefs down, stepping out of it. When I glanced back at Kate, her eyes were wide and slightly wary.
"Drew... " she glanced at me, before her eyes returned to my dick, "You're really big. "
"Yeah. The bigger the better right? " I joked.
"I'm not so sure. " she murmured, biting her lip.
I paused. Shit. Was she telling me she didn't want me anymore because of the size of my dick? That would be the craziest thing a girl had ever told me.
"But I want you bad right now. So get on with it. " she said, surprising me.
I smiled but that smile died when I remembered I didn't have a condom in the house. "Fuck, Kate. I don't have any condoms right now. "
How could I have been so stupid? I had known she was going to come, but I couldn't buy condoms? Shit.
"I'm on the pill. " she called, pulling me out of my thoughts.
"You would... " I blinked, "You would trust me like that? "
"Of course I do. " she rolled her eyes.
Since there was nothing stopping us anymore, I angled my dick towards her entrance and sank in one smooth stroke.
"Oh my God. Oh my God. " she kept chanting, "Just give me a minute. " she moved slowly, shifting here and there as she tried to accommodate me. And it was getting pretty fucking hard not to move. I was in heaven. I had definitely found my favorite place to be. Inside Kate's pussy.
Her head fell back as she started to enjoy herself, meanwhile I was gritting my teeth, battling the urge to thrust. "You feel so good. " she breathed.
"You're killing me. " I forced out.
She looked up at me with glazed eyes, biting her lip. "I'm good. "
And I moved. Until the both of us moved together as one. And when she came, it was the most beautiful thing to watch. Her mouth formed a perfect O as she threw her head back in a scream, her fingers, marking my back with her nails. Her walls squeezed my dick so fucking hard, it was almost impossible to move. The intensity of her orgasm had me following her right over the edge.
She laid her head on my chest as she tried to catch her breath. My legs were trembling with the force of my orgasm and I didn't think I'd be able to stand for long.
I moved from the counter, gripping her ass in my palms to steady her. She wrapped her legs around me as I took us upstairs, her head resting on my shoulder.
"Drew, I think I need to sleep. "
"I'll put you to bed. "
"You're still inside me. " she murmured.
"Sleep. " I told her. "I'll take care of you. "
"Okay. "
By the time I got to the bedroom, she was already sleeping. I placed her on the bed, which caused me to pull out if her. I cleaned her with a warm washcloth then cleaned myself before lying down next to her, pulling the covers over us. She instantly curled into me, throwing one leg over mine. Even in her sleep.
I smiled, wrapping my arm around her.
I was in love with Kate Rossi and nothing, absolutely nothing, could help me at this point.
