By the Sea

My head throbbed, I didn’t open my eyes for fear that it would make my headache worse. I was warm and my body ached in the most pleasant of ways. My mouth felt like cotton and my skin felt grimy with dried sweat from the night before. I cracked open an eye, looking over at Dom. His face was softened with sleep. It didn’t take away from how handsome he looked. I took the quiet moment to just study the man I’d had mind-blowing s*x with last night. The room felt overly bright as the sunlight streamed through the windows. I didn’t know how long we’d been out, but I knew that I needed to get up and get a drink of water. Sighing, I rolled over. My feet hit the floor as I stretched my arms up over my head. Trying to work out the overly used muscles that were now stiff from sleep. Standing, I moved about the room, picking up the little empty bottles that littered the room before dumping them into the trash. The kitchenette was darker than the rest of the room, giving my eyes a chance to relax. I grabbed a bottle of water, unscrewing the lid before taking a sip. It soothed my throat, and I gulped it down. When I was done, I walked over to my purse, grabbing my toothbrush and my phone. The reality of the night before was starting to settle in, and I wanted to call Kane and tell him about what had happened. Heading into the bathroom, I flipped the light on before turning my phone on and sitting it on the counter as I put toothpaste on the toothbrush. I wanted to kiss Dom again, but not with my morning breath. My phone buzzed and I looked down at the screen. My voicemail was full, I had ten text messages from Micheal. I opened the first message, not wanting to hear his voice. Micheal: Sarah, answer your phone please. Micheal: Sarah, please. I messed up. Micheal: I broke up with Traci, please come home. Micheal: You’re the best thing that ever happened to me, please forgive me. I love you. The messages went on and on. Rolling my eyes, I finished brushing my teeth before spitting into the sink and rinsing it out. There was no way that I was going back to Micheal. I had cared about him before, thought that I had loved him. That things between us would get better, but after last night. I knew that I wanted more in life. I wanted love and the kind of s*x that Dom had given me. Hitting the delete button, I turned towards the tub, messing with the taps until the temperature was warm. This time I didn’t bother with the bubbles, I was only going to clean up then I’d go in there and wake Dom up. I stepped into the tub, the porcelain slowly warming up with the heat of the water as I sat down. “You started without me.” Dom said as he pushed open the door. His voice was gruff with sleep. I didn’t know how he did it, but he seemed to look sexier than he had the night before. His shoulder length dark red hair tousled with sleep. His lips still swollen from kissing me, his shoulders were marked with scratches and I felt a pang of guilt that I’d hurt him. My eyes moved lower and I had little time to think about anything else as my mouth went dry. His hand fisted his c**k as he stroked himself, watching me with eyes that burned just as they had the night before. “I didn’t start anything,” I paused, my eyes still on his moving hand. “Yet.” “Good girl.” He said in that same rough tone that made my heart beat faster. Dom strode to the tub, moving into the water with a grace that I’d never seen before. I felt almost like I was being hunted. He sat in the tub across from me. Moving closer, the water sloshing in the tub as he settled himself against me. His legs pinning mine in place, as his erect c**k pressed against me. I brought my hands up and out of the water, cupping his cheeks. He leaned closer to me, his lips hovering above mine. I closed my eyes, pressing my lips to his, and he surged forward. His tongue moving into my mouth as he all but devoured me. He braced his hands on the lip of the tub, caging me in. Not that I would have tried to get away if I could. I shifted so my legs were parted and he rolled his hips forward. His member bumped against my entrance and I moaned out. Pulling my lips away from his as he slowly inched himself inside of me. His thrust were shallow and I moved my hands to his back, holding him close. I wanted to move my legs, to wrap them around his waist and drive him deeper. But, I didn’t want to lose that friction that I knew would tip me over the edge if he kept up his pace. “Sarah,” My name was a rough growl, “Tell me what you want.” “You, I want you.” I panted out and he smiled a seductive smile before he pulled out of me. I let out a whimper, I wasn’t ready for him to do that. “On your knees, hands against the wall.” He ordered and my eyes widened. I wanted to talk back to him, but I wanted to come more. I shifted around, doing as he’d asked. His hands moved over my ribs, nails scraping over my heated flesh as he lined his c**k up with my s*x. Sinking into me, until I felt so full. He pulled back until just the head of his c**k remained inside of me before thrusting into me again and again. The force of him driving me forward. My palms were flat against the wall behind the tub. If there hadn’t been tile beneath my nails, I knew that I would have left claw marks in the wall as I fought to stay upright and take all that he was giving me. His hand tangled into my hair, sharply tugging the strands as he kept up his thrust and I couldn’t help the moans that slipped from my lips. His hand struck my bottom and I gasped out at the pain and pleasure of the strike. My moans turned into pleas as he struck my bottom again and again. His hand snaked around my body as he slapped at my clit and I thrust myself back against him, my body clenching up as he growled my name. It was a sound that I didn’t think that I’d ever get tired of hearing. His fingers tightened in my hair and the smacks to my clit became strokes as my cunt tightened up. Milking his c**k until he lost control, coming inside of me. I rested my head against the tiled wall, trying to catch my breath as he pressed kissed his way down my spine. His hands moving over my skin relaxing me as I dropped my knees lower sinking into the now cooling water. “You okay?” He asked between soft kisses. “Yeah, I just need a second.” “Only a second?” He chuckled as he pulled away from me, grabbing the washcloth and soap from the ledge of the tub. “Maybe a bit more than a second.” I giggled as I turned over, my hair clinging to my skin. He smiled at me. It was a gentle smile that made my heart do a funny little flip that I knew that it shouldn’t do. It was only s*x and I couldn’t start to have feelings for a weekend fling just because we’d had some of the best s*x of my life. He cleaned me up before helping me wash and condition my hair. I took my time exploring his body as I helped him get clean. Afterwards, he helped me out of the tub and wrapped me up in the plush hotel robe. His own towel hung up on the towel rack as he moved into the room to get dressed. My phone buzzed and I looked at the screen, smiling as I saw Kane’s name. I wanted to tell him everything that had happened, but I didn’t want to do that in front of Dom. I pressed the button, sending him to voicemail as I walked back into the suite. “How about I go get us some breakfast while you get dressed?” Dom said, buttoning up a pair of jeans. I smiled at him, “Okay, did you want to leave the room today or-” “How about we figure that out after we eat?” He gave me a wolfish grin that left part of me hoping we would be staying in. The other part of me that had never seen the ocean was overriding that thought. My eyes were glued to his body as he leaned over to grab a shirt. I’d never been on for s******g, well maybe I was. When Dom did it, I liked it very much. My cheeks heated up as he stood up, giving me a wink as he pulled his shirt on. “I’ll be back in a bit.” He winked, pressing a kiss to my cheek before he grabbed his boots and headed for the door. I ran to the bathroom, grabbing my phone off the counter. I needed to call Kane and talk to my best friend about what had happened. Maybe he could help me sort out my emotions. Or he’d tell me this was a bad idea and talk some sense into me. Scrolling through my phone, I stopped at Kane’s face. Just seeing his smile made me feel more at ease. I pressed the call button, putting him on speaker as I walked back into the room. “Hey baby girl.” He said, his voice slightly scratchy and deep, I knew that he was just waking up. “Hi, Kane.” I said, worrying the inside of my cheek. Looking out the window, I studied the ocean. “How’s the beach?” “Pretty from my room.” I brought my thumb up to my lips and started chewing on my cuticle. “You feeling okay?” “Yeah, just something happened last night.” My throat tightened for a moment, and I was worried that he would think less of me for sleeping with Dom. “Please tell me you didn’t take Michael back.” “No, god no.” I took a deep breath, my anxiety getting the best of me. “I, there’s this guy-” “Sarah, are you okay?” “Yeah, I slept with a guy.” “Oh,” he said, and I could hear the relief in his voice. “Was it good s*x?” “Oh, my god Kane.” I said, turning away from the view. Walking over to the sundress that I’d worn last night, I tossed it onto the bed. Before grabbing one of the thongs I’d bought for the trip and slipping it on. “That good?” Kane asked with a chuckle, and I felt relief that he wasn’t judging me. How could I have worried about him? He was the most supportive person I’d ever met. “Kane, I’ve never-” I sat the phone down on the dresser, “The things we did.” “Mmm, tell me all about it baby girl.” “So, the shower broke in my first room and the hotel upgraded my room. There were all these little bottles of whiskey and I thought they were from you so I drank some and then I got into the tub.” “Not me.” “I know that now,” I said with a giggle as I moved to the dresser, dragging the hair brush through my hair. “Anyway, do you want to know what happened or not?” “Don’t hold out on me.” Kane said, and I smiled. “So I’m in the tub and um, well I’m indulging in a little self-loving and I look up and there he was.” “Mmm, wet Sarah. Keeping going.” “Shhh, I’m not done. Anyways, there was a mix up with our rooms and he just broke up with his girlfriend. We played ‘never have I ever.’” I thought for a moment about telling Kane what I’d confessed to Dom when he let out a choking sound. “Kane, you okay?” He sputtered for a moment before coughing, “Coffee went down the wrong side. Keep going.” “He pinned me down and f****d me. Kane-” I said, covering my face. My cheeks were hot to the touch. I didn’t know if I was going to be able to tell my best friend about being s*****d and how I’d come harder than I had in my entire life. “Don’t stop now, baby girl. It’s just getting good.” I sucked in a deep breath before blurting out my next words, “He s*****d me and my god Kane. That man, I’ve never come that hard. EVER!” “God, that’s hot.” “Kane.” I said, biting my lower lip. This was different from the times we’d talked about s*x, sure we’d discussed it before, but it was always when I was in a committed relationship. “Sarah, I want you to go and have a good time this weekend. You deserve it, baby girl.” My heart swelled at his words and I felt lighter, “After what you went through, you need some release.” “Thanks, Kane. You’re the best.” “Nah, you are. When you get back, I want you to stay with me and I’ll keep Micheal away.” “I can’t do that to you Kane, you need your space. I’ll stay in my apartment til I find a place.” “Might want to change your mind, I’m heading to get your stuff today.” He paused for a moment and I grabbed my makeup bag, swiping on some mascara and a little bit of lipstick. “Kane?” “Sarah, he’s been blowing up my phone and I want you to be safe. If you’re not comfortable staying with me, when you get home we can start apartment hunting and I’ll help you move.” I thought about his words for a moment before nodding to myself, “Just til I find somewhere else. Kane, I’ve got to go. I’ll call you back later.” We said our goodbyes and I hung up my phone. Pulling my dress over my head before tossing my phone into my purse as the door swung open and Dom came inside. His eyes lit up as they moved over my body.
