Teaser

We gazed out at the skyline in silence. He reached back and cut my desk lamp off leaving only the city scene outdoors illuminating the room.
“Sometimes, I could just look up at the stars all night,” he said, staring at the sky in wonderment.
“You have that kind of time?” I asked, looking up at the sky.
He turned to me and with a piercing look replied, “I make time for beautiful things.”
I could feel myself blushing and started fidgeting with my Blackberry.
Just then, he leaned into my neck and inhaled deeply.
“Damn, you smell good,” he whispered, allowing his lips to brush lightly against my earlobe.
My palms started to sweat as he moved closer. I quickly turned to cut my lamp back on and dropped my Blackberry. He bent to pick it up and placed his face as close to my leg as possible, blowing on it while slowly standing. My flesh tingled as the warmth of his breath traveled up my calf and reached my thigh.
“Here ya go,” he said in a low tone, handing it to me.
I clumsily took it, inadvertently hitting the send button on the earlier reply I’d typed Phillip. But I didn’t care.
He sat on the edge of my desk and swallowed my hand with his while drawing me between his legs.
“What did you want to talk about?” he asked, taking his fingertip and gently sweeping a portion of my hair behind my left ear.
“Oh….um, um…” My brain searched for words while my eyes became stuck on his lips. “It’s Angelica,”

I said.
“Yeah, what about her?” he asked, continuing to come closer.
My heart started racing and I felt weak.
“She…she’s gotta do something,” I mumbled.
“Something like what?” he whispered, lips lightly grazing mine. I wanted to pounce and run away at the same time.
