My heart skipped a few beats, then thundered. My heart was pounding so hard that I was not able to focus on anything. Owen had just professed his feelings to me in the most beautiful way ever, and I didn’t see it coming.
“I know I am being too forward Hazel, but I can’t continue to keep these feelings to myself. I love you Hazel, who wouldn’t?” He paused, then looked into my eyes and continued “You are beautiful Hazel, you are smart. I love the way you smile, the way you talk, walk, I love everything about you. I’ve never felt this way about anybody. In the short time I have known you, you have brightened my world.”
I tried to say something but I couldn’t put my words together, I was overwhelmed.
“Please be my woman Hazel, I am not like the other guys. I promise to love and cherish you forever.” He pressed on.
“Forever?” I asked.
“Yes, forever.” He assured.
I looked at him in the eyes and asked “you won’t leave me, will you?”
“Never.” He said, as he wrapped his hand tightly around my waist and drew me closer.
My heart started pounding when warmth invaded my neck, he kissed my neck up to my ear.
He breathed into my ear so low then he asked “can I kiss you?”
I nodded my head without saying a word, I couldn’t even if I had wanted to, because his breath sent chills down my spine.
He tightened his grip around my waist and my heart raced faster and faster when his face came up to mine and my knees got weaker when he pressed his lips on mine.
He slipped his tongue inside my mouth and we kissed. While we were sucking each other’s lips, he gently slipped his hand inside my cloth, he moved the tip of his thumb in circles on my already hard n****e and I moaned so hard wanting more.
He detached his lips from mine, then asked. “Do you want me to stop or continue?”
“Please don’t stop” I begged.
He proceeded to cup my breast in his palm and squeezed it gently. It felt so good that I wanted to feel the same way on my other breast. So, I grabbed his left hand and placed it on my other breast.
He understood the assignment, so gently squeezed my other breast too.
“Baby are you wet?” He asked teasingly.
“Yes.” A short moan escaped my lips.
He inserted his hand into my sweatpants and ran his index finger along the waistband of my panties
“Can I feel you? Do you want me to feel your wetness?” Owen teased while he slipped his fingers into my vulva and rubbed through my wetness back and forth.
He drew circles on my clits teasing it and I moaned heavily.
“You like that don’t you?” He asked.
“Yes.” I gasped and just as he was about to insert his finger into my entrance, he removed his hand quickly as if something had happened.
“What’s wrong?” I asked cautiously.
“Nothing, it’s better we take things slow.” He said.
‘Take things slow? After what he just did to me?’ I thought. But all I could say was “you are right.” Pretending like I agreed with him.
There was an awkward silence after that, so I continued staring at the moon, reminiscing what just happened.
“What qualities do you want in a man?” Owen broke the silence.
“A man that is kind to me and respects me.” I said.
“Well, I’ve got both qualities and more.” He said jokingly, to ease the mood and we both laughed.
All of a sudden, the weather changed, dark clouds filled the sky and it got really cold.
I crossed my arms, wrapping it around myself.
“Are you cold?” Owen asked.
“Very cold.” I said.
“The plan was to pass the night here but it seems it going to rain tonight. Let’s get going.” He said and we packed our things.
The drive to my apartment felt longer than usual and I could see Owen stealing glances at me one in a while from the side of my eye.
When we got to my apartment, he parked and turned off the ignition of his car.
“Let me walk you in.” He offered, when I dropped from his car.
He came down and we walked me to the front door.
“Goodnight baby.” He said and gave me a quick peck on my cheek.
“Goodnight.” I said.
I was not used to addressing people with affectionate nicknames, so I didn’t say any.
I turned and opened my door. Just as I was about to enter, a heavy downpour began.
Owen and I quickly entered the house and I closed the door.
“Seems heaven wants us to spend the night together.” He said jokingly then he continued “do you have anything I can change into?”
“Let me check.” I said and I entered the bedroom.
Owen followed me inside the bedroom and sat on my bed.
I went through my closet and brought out a unisex pyjamas that I owned and threw it at him.
He caught it and said “thanks.”
I pulled out a black silky nightdress decorated with lace appliqué at the bust and hem. I entered the bathroom with it because I was uncomfortable undressing and dressing in his presence.
I came out of the bathroom wearing the black silky nightdress I entered the bathroom with.
I could see Owen from the side of my eye, looking at me, with his jaw dropped and mouth parted.
“Wow.” Owen said, his eyes glued on me. “You’re dead gorgeous.”
He stood up, then strode to where I was standing. He wrapped his arms around my waist and drew me close to his body, until I could feel his erection on me.
He placed his lips on mine and kissed me He grabbed my butt while we were at it and it sent chills down my spine.
The kiss lasted for about a minute. Afterwards, he placed a light, gentle kiss on my forehead and said “let’s go to bed babe.”
We got to the bed and cuddled up to each, until we fell asleep.
