I got a text from Nine as soon as I was seated in my car.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbeTvECrJd
But I didn't open it—I purposely threw my phone in the passenger seat, ignoring her text as I started my car.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyg3yRmmdiR
I didn't touch my phone once during the entire ride to my apartment.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUGwJLe1vT
And it severely fucked with me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgiLBK6QVF
Because I did want to know what she said.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlykbuZY086
Even after how fucked everything went in her office.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPPtUa9aB5
I made myself wait until I had entered my apartment, quickly setting my keys down and unlocking my phone to read her text.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzARFbglbfC
Doc: We're finishing this conversation over dinner. Be ready at 6.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRqVIoQcJLZ
I rolled my eyes at her text, noticing it was barely five-thirty so I still had time to cancel.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYhjuyGnwF
I started typing immediately, preparing my response to cancel.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZs5amcrNZi
Me: can't. i don't feel well enough for dinner
Me: think i'm coming down with something.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DxW0XIkmG
I knew the obvious lie would piss her off more than actually discussing what just happened.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStbSjoXQyG
But I didn't care—I just locked my phone and walked into my bedroom to get unready before I could change my mind.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13P8jrBKle
I took my makeup off first, washing my face before I did my skincare.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡid7cE4hzQ9
Then I got changed out of my outfit and pulled on a baggy t-shirt with only underwear on underneath as usual.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnp8H6DZFV5
I checked my phone as soon as I was done.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVWPb3WK0f
But there was nothing.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0zy1Jp38Mc
Not a single response from Nine.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIcAWUwry1
Not even a thumbs-up on my message.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAA7KmNTal
But I didn't care—I just went about my evening, searching through my fridge and cabinets for something to eat.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ulKDDSei4
All I had was cereal and frozen waffles—the rest was a bunch of ingredients, and I really didn't feel like following a recipe tonight.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMiZtsRCu09
So I sat at my kitchen island, scrolling through DoorDash for something to eat.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOirkX6DUs
I was between Italian food and doing breakfast for dinner.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKrPKgY4x2
But at that point, I should do cereal or waffles if I wanted breakfast.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dmhdnL534
IHOP did sound good though.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVAhxPR8GW
I suddenly glanced up when I heard three sharp knocks at my front door, making my brows furrow slightly.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVStC862XVj
A part of me wondered if it was Nine—but she's very literal with time.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFY8t8DQ9NJ
She would've been here directly at six, and now it's almost seven.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBf1mWYw259
It's probably Kai dropping by.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8i9gBKLwC
I walked over to the door, standing on my tippy-toes to look through the peephole.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7lIqTktrl
Where she stood on the other side.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyd3CjUMam
I guess I was wrong, she's not that literal with time.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfF7VsyFmLQ
That doesn't mean I'm letting her in.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡai7aLNMJ5o
Right?
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YXydkX3X7
I quickly nodded a few times to myself—right, right.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLlp7XvwLr
I shouldn't let her in.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8V5AV08oX
Even if the sight of her on the other side of my door made excited knots tie in my lower stomach.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqt8E8FArI
I drew in a deep breath when she knocked again, and that's when I realized I couldn't pretend to not be here.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKCmArK3g0
She has my location.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpmnCfIrB4
"I don't feel good" I suddenly called out through the door.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyCqrMBX2r
"Open the door, River" she still had the nerve to say, making me roll my eyes as I tried to fight the urge of finding her attractive right now.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tBS2k8Bop
I'm not opening the door.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8MfJsNHJ9
I shouldn't.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9KeKcj88P7
But she's also holding a bag—I wonder if she brought food.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMCT0vQE84
No-no, I can just order something or maybe have frozen waffles since DoorDash takes so long.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcR4fXhVSIq
"River" she repeated herself, her tone firmer with me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJZ3ZDPia7
I drew in a deep breath, tightly pursing my lips together when I unconsciously reached for the door handle.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmuOnm4DYO
It was like my thoughts were fighting my body, especially as I pulled down on the handle and opened the door for her.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTM4NNORln
So much for not letting her in.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFo89q4wHar
"What?" I said, my tone short with her as her brown eyes met mine.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwOu9Cep2L
She walked past me into my apartment before I could process it, her sweet scent lingering around me as I closed the front door.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYrYgqJFwD
"I didn't say you could come in" I sarcastically said, watching as she walked over to my small dining room table, setting the bag down and turning to me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVIkipSXFB
"Come here" Nine calmly said, disregarding my words entirely.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrZGfDIaxP
I clenched my jaw as I held her stare, remaining still in place for a moment as I tried to pretend the two simple words didn't affect me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5otrhIGlQj
But they did.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwF71bjR3em
They fucking did.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlWvgB7xMe
I hesitantly took a step forward when she raised a brow, sighing dramatically when I inevitably walked over to her.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyc7CGIbnGH
"I'm mad at you" I said simply even if I knew she could read between the fucking lines.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQ2WbnqhbG
"That's what I'm here to discuss with you, River" she murmured as I curiously opened the bag on the table.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzhDDRPOI8M
"What is this?" I asked, pulling out one of the clear containers fogged with steam.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HYiiiTrzc
"Soup" Nine said, and that's when I felt her presence verge closer to me, "You said you didn't feel well."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ueKmaEkh7
I lazily raised my brows, "I lied" I mumbled, setting the container down.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1Mlu5Gbrl
"I know" she calmly said, now standing behind me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZVNXfcrl2
I drew in a measured breath when I felt her hands grip my waist—or the warmth of her breath against my ear as she leaned in closer to me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMCIQttupf
"Nine" I said, feeling my face burn at her sudden actions, "I'm mad at you" I reminded her.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTW8Dadi5I
Or maybe I was reminding myself.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgP40i3c0vI
"I wanted the best for you" she whispered so softly, giving my waist a gentle squeeze, "It wasn't something I thought twice about, River. I wanted you to see the best doctor in the area."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWX3kocVMw
I shook my head slightly, "You apparently wanted all of them to see the best doctor too" I pointed out, briefly closing my eyes when I felt the softness of her lips against the shell of my ear.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKDQ3WLYQt
"I can't change my past, River. And I won't fight the urge to give you best" Nine said, her voice lowered in my ear, "But I'm sorry, sweetie. I should've informed you first."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FH3P95aS4
I let out a deep sigh, especially when she pressed her lips just below my ear—making shivers run down my spine.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlA7tdeD1ax
It was the first time her lips had kissed my body.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4qDVnWoIS
"You should've" I whispered, my voice breathless as I pressed my hands against the cold table in front of me for stability.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGj3SARnu4b
Especially when Nine drew in a deep breath, openly smelling me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUdyabZUfV
"You smell really good, River" she whispered so softly, "Is this new?" she asked, pressing another kiss to my skin.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWfrMSqLhA
Only this one was pressed to my neck.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtY1ooFHoC
I drew in a deep breath at the fact that she noticed my newest fragrance oil.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfI4b4Pnf0
But that doesn't matter right now.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQio55lP7I
Or I'm trying to tell myself it doesn't.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCEwHFl3V2
"You should've told me, Nine" I said, disregarding her question as I tried to lean away from her.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEjSrTWp8l
Her grip around my waist tightened in response, but not enough to prevent me from pulling away.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgoih7z68Z
It was a silent test.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClcs2mJ427
Like I could step away if I wanted to.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAIU9LoVfT
But I didn't want to.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcXVQFnYqs
Fuck.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRIbJwmsie
I don't even know why I'm mad—it's all in the past.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmi4Qkxr3s
And I knew she had arrangments before me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLk1eb7WFCF
I just wish she didn't take me where they all had been.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDodFV7Q0dn
It made me feel... like the rest.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEV7sBGswr
She said this wasn't just a hookup situation, so I'm confused.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYKFe2lFfA
"I sincerely wanted the best for you, River" Nine suddenly said, now grazing her lips against my neck as she inhaled again, "But it won't happen again."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwgyHxnSWV
"It won't?" I whispered, gripping the table underneath my hands.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1sqppjCmc
I didn't expect her to give in so easily.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNHdoHaYoN
If anything, I expected to be punished for walking out like that.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSn8K2CagO5
Nine hummed, the sound soft in her throat, "I'll find another doctor for you" she assured me, running her hands down from my waist, "But they won't be the best accredited in Seattle."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgMoW91d9f
I let out a deep sigh, feeling conflicted by her offer, "I don't know" I breathed out as her touch trailed down to my thighs, "Maybe I'll just stay" I determined, suddenly feeling like it wasn't that big of a deal.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhiR1zseE5
But I couldn't tell if that was her words... her touch... if it was affecting me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFLUFHtD2W
Then again, I hadn't told her about Kai, so it felt like we had both lied.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGNxNU7HYf
Mine was just... a little worse maybe?
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpv6ig9oys
Kai's still in my life, portrayed to Nine as only a friend.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDeWfNadJL
"No, I'll take care of it" Nine assured me, luckily not listening to my words in the heat of this very tense moment. I really don't want to go back to that doctor, "You're not comfortable with it, and that's all that matters."
I felt a warmth burn around me at her words,
"Really?" I whispered, taking her words more personally than I should've.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1sFbKCON8
She prioritized me so quickly... so easily.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj33YoSAV1g
"Really" Nine said, trailing her hand under my baggy t-shirt, "I only ask that you allow us to have a real conversation before making your mind up."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NpfNk35zh
I nodded a few times in a row, "Yes, of course" I murmured, my lips parting with a soft gasp when I felt the softness of her touch against my covered clit.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbTG3vCNq1
"Don't ever walk out against my word again" she said, her voice firmer in my ear as she teased me through my underwear.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VDbxuS5Wn
I nodded rapidly, "Okay, I won't" I quickly whispered, determining that I probably shouldn't have walked out on her like that.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4Zt30UofB
I won't do it again.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2feQ0iFSD
"Good girl" she calmly said, her praise making my body burn as I arched into her touch.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLt4kWdI1u5
My breathing grew unsteady, especially when she pressed her lips to my neck yet again.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkybDMhL7F
"I want you, River."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpo2t1Uk4xn
Her words were lowered between us, tracing my clit through my thin underwear.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXab8Fuqvt7
"Take me please" I whispered breathlessly.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNLdpG6BnS
Her touch drew away from my core, "Very pretty manners, River" she complimented, making knots grow in my lower stomach as she impatiently pushed the bag in front of us off the table—And spilled the soup across the floor.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfOgj0iuNJ
Then she bent me over the cold table, reaching down to slide my underwear to the side and—A moan burned in my throat as soon as she began rubbing my clit, tracing it with her fingers.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07tx32UDZC
Her other hand held the back of my neck, applying more pressure to my clit as I gripped the table underneath me with a deeper moan.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5htr4BTuU
"You're very wet, River" she murmured, now quickening her pace as I whined at how sensitive I still felt.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dKov9i10K
"Nine.." I whimpered, squirming underneath her as she pressed into me deeper.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnIgIoQzYq
"Tell me what you want" she calmly instructed as my breathing grew more rapid, trying to squeeze my legs closed.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGJYMcweJq
She used her foot to separate my legs further away from the other, exposing me even more to her touch.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTmaeTv8Mn
"More.." I tried my best to say between moans, squirming underneath her as my clit ached unbearably.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54kPUm4Mze
She slid two fingers past my folds at my words, making a whimper burn in my throat as I gripped the table even more.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEx42Xgkfy
I felt so warm around her—I could even feel how wet I was.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDcKvydYiR
"You're taking it perfectly, River" she murmured, making another moan echo from my lips—inhaling a series of breaths.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAzEAfkCG6
Especially when I felt her fingers spread inside of me, deepening her strokes as I moaned and whimpered underneath her.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0GGnVg0as
I shot up toward my peak before I could process it, squeezing my eyes tighter when everything burned around me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslcRtJq2XS
"Right there" I forced out when she curled into me, her grip tightening on my neck.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHchUT92wUB
I felt myself tighten around her fingers, engulfing them as she continued her deep and quick pace against my spot.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoacncw1JkK
Until finally—
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADK3csyp5G
"Nine, don't stop.."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aaQYVmWiy
She went faster in response, making more whines and moans burn in my throat—trembling under her entirely.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfWWJ0vB6H
"Perfect, River."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1ExA99yd0
Her words echoed around me as I drew in rapid breaths, my orgasm washing over me as I released onto her fingers.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZEtzNjXhr
I could feel the wetness between my thighs, riding out my orgasm as she continued a steady pace.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tjFGjiAlf
And instead of pushing me directly into a second or third orgasm, she slowly slid out of me instead.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIbuRMokoy
I remained still for a long moment, a shiver rolling down my spine as I moved my legs slightly.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx3iS13rz52
Nine gently let go of my neck as I pressed myself away from the table, rising back to my full height.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7HxQtMffU
That's when I glanced over at the floor, noticing the mess caused in the heat of the moment.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7703tfTmU
"I guess we aren't having soup" I whispered, noticing the spilled containers of soup on the floor.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwhAuIEHfw
But I couldn't care less—I'm not actually sick so soup wasn't what I wanted for dinner.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatZ6qDF7hq
Not after looking at pasta.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsj2bjQGwo
"I'll order something else" Nine determined, walking over to the sink to wash her hands.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKWtgRuOs6
"Pasta?" I asked her with a small smile growing on my lips.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujhP54vOnF
"Do you want pasta?" she asked me, her brown eyes meeting mine as she washed her hands.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6DneYC538
I nodded immediately, "Rigatoni sounds perfect right now" I said as she tore off numerous paper towels.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKUZR4Kyu4
"Grab my phone" Nine instructed, walking over to the spilled soup and leaning down to lay the paper towels over the mess.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Zux9DFyTR
I walked over to the table where I noticed her phone sat with her keys—along with a small cardboard box.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbO5gyJH2we
"What's in that box?" I curiously asked, walking back over to her and handing her the phone.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IZnL1eMG7
"You'll see" she casually murmured, immediately piquing my interest.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCgbACZyO6
"I will?" I asked with a small smile, watching as she focused her attention on her phone.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJbbOdJWSw
"Yes, River" she said, her lips twitching up as she glanced up from her phone to meet my stare, "Now grab me the usual cleaning products you use."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1pLeJmdTm
I immediately nodded, "Yeah, I'll clean this up while you order the food" I determined, walking over to the closet by the kitchen.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWaRvI9njE
"No, I'll take care of this" Nine determined as I grabbed the Swiffer mop to help clean the mess up quickly, "You pick out what you want and order it."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2H8sV1V0s
I nodded, pursing my lips to fight my annoying smile as I handed her the Swiffer and took her phone in exchange.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnMebnKpKe
As she handled cleaning up the mess and picking up the trash, I worked on putting the order together.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQiNhStrHOm
She wanted me to order her Cacio e Pepe—something I had never fucking heard of, but I made sure to find it on the online menu and add it to the order.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv83y6mxwEB
Her card details were already provided in DoorDash so all I had to do was place the order.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ23c6tIqCj
Then I focused on helping her with whatever was left of the mess before heading to the bathroom and cleaning up the mess she had made of me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRioidYPDQG
By the time I came out, Nine was seated at my dining room table which I probably hadn't used more than a handful of times.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ423o1kDCOD
Her sleeves were rolled up to her elbows, her heels off, and her long hair now up in a messy bun with her bangs framing her face.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDEcJduWFi
Although, a messy bun on her still managed to look as neat as ever.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fdRELJ6Dh
I pursed my lips into a small smile as I approached her, noticing the bottled water she took the initiative of getting us.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnqyVQonQN
"Come here" she said, glancing away from her phone as I halted by the chair beside her.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRyP9OXj84
"I am here" I said with a raised brow.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hIwpi7CFB
"Here" Nine emphasized, motioning me closer.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFSwqV0yOo
It made my face burn up, unconsciously taking a few steps closer to her as she reached out to grab my waist.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0y8AE5ma3H
The heat around me grew when she guided me to sit down on her lap, running her arm around my waist.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqwRPpXzAN
She reached her other hand up, gently caressing the stray curls away from my face.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsh01RU9Zga
"My beautiful girl" she murmured, now grazing the back of her hand against my cheek.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8SXZdDUpc
Her words made my face grow warmer as I relaxed under her touch—leaning my side further into the front of her body with my legs hanging off her lap.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmPaJiQIvv
"How do you feel now?" she asked me, her brown eyes trailing my face, "Are you content?" she added, referring to the earlier situation.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicemuM7FQL
I nodded immediately, "Very content" I didn't hesitate to say, glancing between her eyes.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbvbsQU7x2
"Good" she whispered, running her hand down from my cheek to briefly squeeze the side of my neck, "I have something for you."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Ay87lirvL
A smile curled on my lips, "Like a gift?" I asked her, glancing over to the small black cardboard box.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobs4okSlkH
"You could say" Nine murmured, lowering her hand from my neck to grab the small box, "Here."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCYr4UUmwGP
I immediately took the box from her extended hand, carefully lifting the flap and opening the lid.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5oRcWEA9B
The black Amex card glistened under the dim lighting, the sight of it making me almost speechless.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7gREk03ex
I felt entirely caught off guard, contemplating if she meant to give this to me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBvFO8iBQX
"You only use this card from here on out" Nine said when I remained speechlessly silent, "There's no limit on it."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Ht3lKb3oY
I blinked a few times, suddenly wondering if this was because of the shopping trip I mentioned today.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8ixcehgb2
If she thought about it deeper than me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjECCZUphT
I unconsciously shook my head, "I can't take this" I whispered, glancing over to her.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokovsM8cU5
"Yes, you can" she calmly said, briefly squeezing my waist, "That's what this comes with, princess."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQpatrj6AW
I blinked a few times, "But-but..." I trailed off, glancing back to the card.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUzI2bJySAY
"You won't depend on her anymore" Nine said, her voice softened between us.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfeIjYcMjX
And I knew the she, that Nine was referring to.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRO0g0cYUv
My mother.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruUZ8EL250
"I'll take care of everything, River. I mean that" she softly whispered, caressing my covered waist as I tried to process this.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptK5zPQeNU
Her gesture... her words, they made my chest grow tight.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEpwiqonOy
And before I knew it, my eyes grew heavy with annoying tears—dropping the box in my lap to hug her.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5ULsT8qeo
I sniffled as I buried my face in her chest, wrapping my arms around her torso.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwWcqZckbu
Nine's grip around my waist tightened, reaching up to caress her other hand against my covered back.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyiiS0HybZ
It was enough security to make more tears burn in my closed eyes, squeezing her closer to me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVroiBCnEO8
"My sweet girl" she whispered when the tears escaped my eyes and dampened her blouse, drawing in deep breaths, "I didn't want to make you upset."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2odO4hWHC
I sniffled, more tears weighing down my eyes, "No...no, I" I paused, the tightness in my throat making it hard to form any words, "No one's ever done this for me before."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxRc1yhpVg
I didn't want to be crying over something so small.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeWDeo5G9l
But this meant more than she could've imagined
"Shhh.." she softly soothed me when my crying worsened, caressing her hand up my back,
"Everything is okay, River."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYm4OKj9Bj
I nodded a few times at her words, pulling away from her chest with teary eyes and flushed cheeks.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCs7Y60XmT
Nine pursed her lips as she stared down at me, reaching up to gently cup my cheek and wipe any stray tears away.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFo0eJAnbe3
"You deserve this" she said, her tone lowered between us and her stare not wavering from mine,
"Repeat it back to me."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVV2oyZ5xr
I sniffled, staring up into her eyes, "I deserve this" I whispered, letting out a deep breath as she wiped more of my tears away.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyFpjijfOB
"You do" she calmly said, her eyes trailing my face for a moment, "Did you want to show me what you got today?"
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3B7iHFWibs
A smile slowly grew on my lips, sniffling again, "You want to see?" I asked her.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ520EVe3lnb
Nine's lips twitched up slightly, "Of course" she didn't hesitate to say, wiping the rest of my stray tears away.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZ4h8Bli0y
"Okay, but it has to be like a fashion show" I told her in a soft murmur, "Like I come out and you judge the look."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Q5yy3fYp3
Nine pursed her lips when her subtle smile grew,
"I'm very biased" she said, tucking a stray curl behind my ear and making my smile grow even more, "But I'll be your judge."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtLS6AyOzE
I hummed happily, picking the box up from my lap,
"I'll be right back then" I said as I stood from her lap, "Stay right here."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC20RV1QA5d
"Anything you say" Nine murmured, clasping her hands together in her lap as I ran off to my room.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnIeeTVt5a
Excitement coursed through my body as I stripped out of the t-shirt I wore, pulling on one of the outfits I picked out today.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3IsD35gHD
It was a dark red ruffle halter top with matching flare pants.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOm4Br7Fc5
The top emphasized my chest and cleavage, the red contrasting perfectly against my tanned skin.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdMDxkI8td
It also tied around my waist, emphasizing the curves of my body.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRRKokwTwq
My nerves managed to grow as I exited my closet, unconsciously smiling to myself.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1d2fXUGaq7
"Oh ten immediately" Nine said as soon as I walked out of my room, giving her a small twirl,
"Bonus points for presentation."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNL5aLhF7BQ
I smiled as I approached her, "You're totally biased" I said, stopping in front of her.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3G7KHleERg
Nine reached for my waist, pulling me closer, "I tried to warn you" she said, running her hands up the sides of my waist as she openly took in the outfit.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSigVh9f2dG
"Ten is your final answer?" I asked, trying to ignore the heat around me that her actions caused.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3ZWD8Jdpf
"I would like to give it more" Nine said, subtly lifting the bottom of my shirt and running her delicate fingers across my belly button piercing, "Very attractive" she murmured.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9xOZTcJKB
My smile grew, "Focus" I whispered, guiding her hand away from my stomach.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotgEP1VIru
"I'm very focused, River" she assured me, nodding a few times even if her stare continued trailing my body.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkSBAMRHqg
"I meant up here" I said with an amused laugh.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfQf4Txpr8
Nine glanced up immediately, but only to stare at my exposed chest, "Up here?" she subtly asked, trailing her hands up my stomach.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKj1ujcOmM
"My eyes" I clarified, jokingly putting a hand on my hip.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4uT8plVu7
Nine immediately grabbed my hand from my hip, glancing up to meet my stare as I stood over her.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTxiz7KEVY
"You're very dangerous in this outfit, River" she said, pulling me closer to her by my hand.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1akZwEdhh
"Dangerous?" I emphasized, feeling my face burn at her words.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1e6YPCb6y0
She nodded, guiding me down to straddle her lap.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTU7xtvrZAd
"Nine" I whispered, smiling wider as she gripped me closer by my hips, "I need to finish the show."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBazRDpiv33
She only hummed, "I should finish you first" she said, pressing her lips to my neck as she grabbed my chin and tilted my head further back.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7fnWZJYnn
"Nine.." I whined, hating that she had managed to turn me on so easily.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBssYdEuin
And only one outfit into this fake fashion show.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUs7JpMMGtJ
We'll probably never finish this show now.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOM1ZAS4jSB
"Okay then" she said, pulling away to meet my stare, "Get off my lap before I take this off of you, River."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEkbrreNM4
Her words made my face grow hotter, unconsciously remaining still on her lap.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCg0EnJzet
Maybe I wanted her to take it off of me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJkCRjzw8W
Nine raised a brow at my obvious actions, "Very bad, River." she said, making me feel weirdly embarrassed as she reached for the string holding my top together.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLFbdNGbFR
Only to gently tug it loose.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVzPTLkg4f
I drew in a deep breath when the top unraveled, allowing her to slide it off of my body entirely.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADQkIBguy5
Her brown eyes shifted down from mine, trailing across my bare chest as she threw my top aside.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4ginwUWjd
"Beautiful girl" she calmly said, making tingles shoot down my spine.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzcY88uq2X
I reached for her shoulders, growing breathless when her hands pressed against my bare stomach, roaming up to grip my breasts in her soft hands.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAaNf8t4D5
My nails dug into her covered shoulders when her thumbs ran over my nipples, hardened purely for her, making me shift against her lap.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlv5U0NcJJo
I don't understand how I'm this turned on after she had me bent over the table less than twenty minutes ago.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡolXvyGXraC
"Let me play with you, River" she murmured, swirling her fingers around my hardened nipples.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUE0kyMEsn
"Play with me?" I whispered breathlessly, unsure what she meant by that.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PQsviAacA
Nine glanced up from my chest to meet my stare, "Sit still and let me play with you as I please" she clarified better for me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CMohmoIz9
I blinked a few times, feeling my face burn up as I unconsciously nodded, "Okay" I whispered, giving in to her entirely.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81yxHTCJoz
"Good girl" she calmly murmured, focusing her attention back on my chest.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5dr0WgoZQ
And just as she claimed, she quite literally played with me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47U73FpWk7
No matter how much I squirmed or how loudly I moaned, her attention remained on my chest, flicking and rubbing my nipples as she watched me struggle underneath her.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3esEUIEJr
She liked it.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eqtCMJmY8
Even beyond her calm demeanor, I could see the tick behind her eyes.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIre0ir39h
Or behind her actions—purposely flicking my nipples faster when she noticed how much it made me shift and squirm against her.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQzLopv6yq
Eventually, it grew unbearable, but I wanted to be good for her—I wanted to give her what she wanted.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCFa9tz6HO
So I remained still, feeling almost degraded by her actions or words.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxwVw5IS9r
How she would tell me how good I'm being for her.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07rWI0fhRM
Or that she could feel how wet I was through the pants I wore.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU67Qte4mnn
My legs were spread wide around her, moaning and whimpering under her touch as I waited for the moment her hands would trail lower.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONxPDvSbLb
It took countless minutes for her to finally grow satisfied, trailing her hand down past my pants and underwear to touch my clit.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpxGWG01Z4
I was so fucking sensitive, that I was already ready for her—ready for my orgasm.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXzql9g7go
It was the most intense experience... within seconds Nine had me at my peak for a second time tonight.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6wBeFogve
My moans were louder, my body burning hotter than ever as she held my hips in place against her fingers that played with my clit.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPBJJz5UuX
My breathing was rampant, leaning into her entirely as I basked in my second orgasm.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxVyB5LPKI
I hugged her for seconds on end, even after I came down from my peak, processing the tingles roaming through my body.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznA6Poc81l
She didn't rush me to pull away or stand up, holding me just as close as she caressed her hand up and down my bare back.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GgNGdgGI2
But eventually, I stood up on my loose legs to get off her lap, wanting to finish the fake fashion show for her.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcodUhuKkDO
Nine reached down to grab my top, handing it to me as I headed back into my room to change into my next outfit.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzcZbACs2X
First I had to clean myself up yet again—then I got dressed in denim jeans that I specifically bought because my ass looked so good in them.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODCJ2mMp1U
I also bought a Dior baby tee to pair with them.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYjSNjbVms
"Ten!" Nine immediately said when I walked out.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmsZsjLM1f
This time I made sure to purposely keep my distance.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJ91KFJS8M
I don't think I could handle a third round with her right now.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRE4j5sM0h2
"Although, I can't tell if it's a full ten with how far away you are" she subtly said, making an amused laugh fall from my lips.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAHec4CTJX
"This is as close as I'm getting" I determined, giving her a small twirl, "Do we like it?"
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8PFXJ4dRX
Nine nodded immediately, "We do" she didn't hesitate to say.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPU4Yd2vpr
A happy smile formed on my lips at her words, walking back into my room to change into my next outfit.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5piWJNvxvC
There were only two more left, so this fashion show would be a little shorter.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdyoC3mF8Sj
But luckily, our food got delivered while I was in the middle of putting on my last outfit.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23NcRbPMcW
I barely showed it to her for more than ten seconds, given I wanted to change and eat my pasta.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2dQrAYPvd
It felt nice pulling my baggy t-shirt back on-walking out of my room toward the dining table.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjbD1hT8cN
She already had my food waiting for me with my water open and ready to drink.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28MtIkosal
"Thank you" I said as I sat down beside her.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovwNPhwTxK
"You're welcome" she calmly said, taking a brief sip of her water as I picked up my fork to eat.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkkWiACNUh
The rigatoni was perfect—nearly melting in my mouth as I hummed contently.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpkXldmm1Z
I couldn't help but glance over to Nine when she grabbed her fork, twirling it in the pasta against the spoon she held.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1abp5LUc4
As I chewed my food, I unconsciously watched her take the first bite of hers, wondering what her pasta tasted like.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfOe4EZaZx
Cacio e Pepe.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ayi59dSYH
I've determined I would definitely try it so I can understand her better.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvpjJvq5qO
"Here, River" she said, sliding her bowl closer to me.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHwO4K13kS
I shook my head, "You don't have to" I said, realizing I was probably staring at her to a point where it made her feel obligated to share.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrh37bTFCf
"I know" Nine stated, sliding the bowl closer, "Take a bite."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKFZdQPFBy
I glanced away from the bowl to her, causing Nine to motion her head at me, silently telling me to take a bite.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnZZQIYrJw
I pursed my lips, transferring my fork from the Rigatoni pasta I had to her bowl to try a bite.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxX6hcHwoZi
She instinctively held her spoon against my fork as I twirled the pasta just as she previously did.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULkosVFmz3
Then I leaned over the bowl, taking the bite she helped me prepare.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAFIF3ZPbK
The pasta tasted cheesy and creamy, the hint of seasoning making my mouth water for more.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXxjPSAhKC
"That's so good" I said, chewing a few more times.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoteQXn9rbe
Nine reached her fork over to my bowl, "It's my usual" she determined, poking her fork into the rigatoni noodles before taking a bite.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHJxr1Rzrx
And I swear it could've been anyone else trying to eat my food and I would've been irritated.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcbW1QkkPj
But with her, it weirdly made me smile.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7ejFsaEx7
She thought whatever food I had was worth trying and that makes me smile, I don't know.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjPZBDIA7T
"Do you like it?" I asked as she swallowed, unconsciously watching her throat move.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRXU3bMEWr
"Yes" she said, glancing over to meet my stare, "It's really good, River."
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mtGChwjTC
I hummed at her words, smiling wider as I took another bite of my pasta.
11Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk49NO6EtvP
This was totally better than toaster waffles.
