She was soaking wet when she reached their doorway. It was pouring hard when she heads home. She doesn't mind walking in the rain as her mind was elsewhere from the moment she stepped out of the building, traveling and when she hopped out from the taxi.
Zach.
She was thinking of their heated kisses before his father's arrival, waking her up to the reality that she left him, five years ago. He said, he was still in love with her but she was wondering why was she alone tonight?
Right, she gave Zach and his father their time. He insisted her to stay but she left. What if she waited after their talk and continue what has been interrupted?
She was alone, Erin was on duty for work. Her feelings and the empty house makes her lonely. She showered for a long time until her fingers shrank looking like an old skin.
She touched her lips as she stares herself in the mirror. God, how she missed him! She was imagining their shared kisses earlier that makes her feel hot. A feeling of wanting that just frustrates her.
She wore her satin robe and reached for a comb, doing her hair absentmindedly.
"Zach, I miss you so much." She whispered through closed eyes still combing her hair.
"Scylla." And then she heard his voice.
What a wonderful imagination.
"Zach." She called for him again.
"Scylla." Says the voice again, making her smile.
She sighed in relief as her image of him was a cooperative one. His voice was so real that she doesn't want to open her eyes but she had to.
"Zach?" He was indeed real.
Zach was in her room standing, soaking wet and staring at her.
"Why, you didn't wait for me Scylla?" Zach asked her.
"Zach, I'm sorry but you need to talk with your father."
"I always talk with him and we didn't. It is the first time after five years that I see you again." He said as if seeing her tonight was just one of his dreams.
"I hope everything is alright. How is your father?" Scylla asked.
"You didn't hate him?"Zach asked.
She didn't change at all. She was still the woman he knew, the loving Scylla.
"I understand him a long time ago, Zach. He just did what he knew was right at that time. And, you need to dry yourself before you get sick!" As she saw him dripping wet from the rain.
"I don't mind it actually, it feels real. You know the cold, meaning you are not a dream." Zach said playfully.
"Come on, you have a business to run!" Scylla rolled her eyes and throw at him the towel.
He smiled at her expression, it was still the same five years ago.
Scylla opened the bathroom door for him as he was next to her.
"I'll leave you here and I'll prepare some hot choco." She said and gave him the way for him to enter the bathroom.
Zach didn't say a word, instead, he dragged her inside the bathroom with him, making her yelp in surprise. They were staring at each other, knowing clearly what will about to happen.
He was still holding his wrist when he inched closer to her. She closed her eyes anticipating his kiss, the kiss she had imagined in the mirror. Seconds passed but she didn't feel his lips to hers but instead his very close breathing.
"What were you thinking earlier while combing your hair? I clearly hear my name from your mouth." Zach said as he slightly touched her lips.
Scylla knew his game, he was teasing her and it was very effective. Her face was on fire.
"And did you just close your eyes? Perhaps, you are anticipating this?" Zach said pouting, showing his kissable lips.
Another good tease from this man.
Scylla decided to fight with his little game before she embarrassed herself more. So, she snatched the towel from him and started to scrab his wet hair.
"I need rinsing, baby," Zach whispered and hold her hand still.
Zach was all wet but his hands were hot on her skin.
"Zach, no need to drag me here with you. I'm done a while ago but if you insist, I can shower twice for this evening." This time it was her teasing him as she started to untie the knot of her robe.
She will not let him tease her forever and Zach immediately regretted dragging her inside with him. His pulse was throbbing as he anticipates her robe to fall on the shower floor.
But it did not. The robe was still intact from her body as she was holding it hard.
"Zach, there's really one thing I need to say to you tonight."
"Hmm..." His only answer as his mind was clouded of wants, taking her right in the bathroom.
"I'm really sorry Zach for leaving you, for not fighting my love for you." She said in a very awkward situation but she feels it was the right time. She doesn't want to end the night without saying those words she dreaded to say for a long five years.
"I love you, Zach. I still love you, even more." She said and reached his burning cheeks.
Zach lovingly stares at her and kissed her. They were not in the right place but this is something he can't stop when it comes to her.
She was his addiction.
The next second, their clothes were on the floor as they both shared hungry kisses. Their hands roamed at each other's bodies with possessiveness.
Her moans were heaven to him and his hot kisses on every inch of her body were her ecstasy.
Erin was right, it was indeed her lucky night. The empty house was perfect for the two-body eager to be one. Her body is hitting the wall as Zach was continuously attacking her with kisses and then she shrieked.
"I'm sorry, I don't mean to..."
"Sssh.." Scylla stopped his lips from opening with hers.
They now shared kisses under the pouring shower and their laughter of happiness echoed in the whole house.
