The Wright One

WILLIAM

I knew this was a bad idea. First when I got hard last night, now this. I woke up this morning to her wrapped around me. Her legs squeezing mine between hers. Her head on my chest and her arms wrapped around the rest of me. On top of that, I am hard again. She is making these little moaning sounds in her sleep. I mean shit she could be having a nightmare and I have my mind in the gutter.

The sad thing is, this is the best sleep I have had in years. I have dated yes, but most of them just see my last name and don’t give a shit about the rest. I don’t even want to move her. I just want to stay right here. Mia has this way of making me feel like a million feet tall. Like nothing can harm me. Not only that, but the way her body is tucked into mine right now is perfect. It’s like two interlocking puzzle pieces we just fit. Only I know this won’t last. She will go back to her life after this case is over and she will probably never want to see me again.

You would think I would want to make a move now, because when am I going to get another shot, but wouldn’t that just make me as much of a dick as the jerk she is trying to escape. Like I was taking advantage of her. I can’t do that. I’m not that guy.

She starts moving, but instead of pulling away, she snuggles in deeper. Fuck that is not helping. Not a nightmare then. She wouldn’t react that way if she was having a nightmare. But what is she dreaming about? Does she have some guy that is visiting her dreams as well as outside this cabin?

I am sure her invitation was completely innocent last night. She didn’t know what I was thinking about. She didn’t know that as soon as she suggested that we share a bed my mind went straight to the gutter. I wanted to do very gutter thought things to her last night.

I already had one arm around her back, now my other hand has a mind of its own and is sliding up her thigh. Her skin is soft. Supple. So good. I find that I am gripping her leg and I want to finish pulling her up and over my waist. Showing her exactly what she does to me. Showing her that this isn’t bothering me in the least. At least not the way that she thinks. Her legs squeeze harder, shifting her weight so that she is a little more on top of me. She keeps wiggling. Oh, damn I should really wake her up. But I don’t. It doesn’t take her long before she has climbed me. Her head is still on my chest, but she is straddling me.

She moans again. I am starting to wonder if she is actually asleep. But she wouldn’t do this to me if she was awake, would she? Her lips start moving over my bare chest. Her hips moving. Oh, God, I have to wake her up. I don’t want to, but I can’t take advantage of her like this.

“Mia, honey, wake up.” I shake her shoulders a little.

She stops wiggling which is both good and the worst thing to ever happen to me. Her groggy eyes look up at me. Then she shoots up. “Oh, my God, what did I do?”

Her body is still straddling mine and I have to groan as she moves on my hardon. “Mia, honey, that is kind of uncomfortable.”

She looks down. Then jumps off me like I am a fire skillet. “Oh, shit. I am so sorry. I completely forgot that I did that. I mean not that. But I move around in my sleep. Sometimes I sleepwalk. It’s only when I am really stressed. I am so sorry.” She buries her head in the pillows.

Reaching over I remove the pillows. “I just didn’t want to take advantage of you. At first I thought you were having a nightmare or something.”

Those big beautiful brown eyes look up at me. “I didn’t mean to.”Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“I know, I’m going to be really honest here, I’m not really complaining. I know this is crap timing and you can tell me to fuck myself, I would not take offense. But any man would love to wake up like that.”

I see her hesitate, but her hand reaches out and rests on my chest. “I think that is the nicest thing that someone has said to me in a long time.”

Inching a little closer, my voice falls. “I meant it.”

Her eyes keep shifting from my eyes to my lips. “I am going to do something and you will probably think really bad of me, but I will regret it for the rest of my life if I don’t.” Like a panther she grips the back of my neck and pulls me down on her lips. I don’t even fight. My arms wrap around her so that I can pull her closer. Shocks shoot through my body as we devour each other. I want this. I want her.

Then the world comes crashing around us. Not literally but my phone starts ringing. I have to answer because it could be about the case. Then I remember that I was supposed to meet Dex this morning. “Shit.” I roll over grabbing my phone. I don’t even look because I know it is Dex. “I’m sorry man, I slept in.”

He laughs. “I am hungover as fuck, and I am running late. That’s why I called. I’ll meet you there.”

“Alright.”

Ending the call I look over at Mia. She is biting her lip and looks flushed. I lean back over and kiss her lips lightly this time. “I have to go.”

Her soft smile is intoxicating. “I heard.”

“It’s the case. We might be headed towards a real break. You might be free of me soon enough.”

Her face falls. “So soon.”

I kissed her again. “Mia, the case may end, but we don’t have to stop talking. This is something. I don’t know what yet, but I haven’t felt like this ever. I’m not sure if you feel the same way. For all I know you could really hate my guts for half the shit I said. Or this.” I kissed her a little deeper this time. “But I am not going to regret a minute of it. I know you probably need time to think about all of this without the stress of Brock over your head. But I’m here when you are ready.”

Mia surprises me by pulling me back down to kiss her again. I really don’t want to go to work. I want to stay right here, but the problem with that is that Mia will never be exonerated if I don’t go.

I pull back reluctantly. “Mia, honey, I have to go.”

“I know. I just wanted to kiss you one more time before you change your mind.”

“I’m not changing my mind. This isn’t a proximity thing. I have been attracted to you since I first met you. I just figured we had crap timing. Finding each other now. But maybe that doesn’t matter.”

“How about you crack this case so you can take me out on a date?”

I can’t hide the grin on my face. It’s like light is bursting out of my body with how happy I am. “That is the best plan I have heard in a long time.”

“Then let’s do it.”
