She woke when the clock in the hall chimed 9am. She looked up at Jason, who was still sleeping. Erine reached across and stroked his cheek; he stirred slightly but continued to sleep.
The need for caffeine took over, so she went into the kitchen to make herself a strong coffee. How did things get to this? She thought, I should be out having fun, seeing my friends, going to school, not worrying whether I’m going wake up chewing on someone’s leg.
But she’d met Jason, someone she cared for so much already and yet she had known him less than 24 hours. She had already hurt him, how much more she would, was still unknown. Erine poured the steaming brew into her favourite coffee cup and pulled a chair out from the dining table. Her cat Lestat had found his way through the cat door and was now nuzzling her leg. Reaching down to pick up the cat, she heard yawning. Jason must be awake she thought. Erine picked up Lestat and her coffee and returned to the lounge.
‘Morning’
‘Morning, would you like some coffee?’
‘No thanks, but a paracetamol would be good’
‘Coming right up’ she put Lestat down while she went into the bathroom to grab the bottle.
Handing him the bottle, she said ‘I have a 10.30 lecture and I have to finish my lab report, but after that I’m free, we can sort this mess out then’
‘Yeah sounds like a plan’
‘Did you sleep all right? Besides that one incident’
‘Like the dead’
‘I’m not sure if I should laugh at that’
‘That was pretty bad taste I admit’
‘I’m about to get some breakfast, do you want something?’
‘That would be good, I’m famished’
Erine waited till he got to his feet, she took his hand and walked with him to the kitchen.
‘Hows does pancakes sound?’
‘All good’
Erine rummaged through the fridge and the cupboards for the ingredients.
‘I can’t work out why you dreamt what I did’ she finally said ‘It could be cause I bit you, you may have some psychic ability or maybe were connected on some other level’
‘Am I the first person who’s seen your dreams?’
‘As far as I know, yes’
‘Hmmm’
The conversation paused when the pancake batter sizzled as it was poured into the pan.
‘The dreams seem pretty violent’
‘Yeah, they’re getting longer and more animated, as you felt, people I know are in them as well… that’s enough of that depressing stuff for now’ she added.
She emptied the first lot of pancakes out onto a plate, and poured more batter into the pan.
‘So what do you study?’
‘I’m an astrophysics major’
‘Oh you’re a smart one then’
‘Some say that, but most say insane’
‘That goes with the territory though’ he laughed
‘What do you do for a living then?’
‘I’m a computer programmer’
‘Oh ok’
‘Glamorous I know’
‘Here, breakfast is served’
They both grabbed their plates and went and sat at the table.
‘I have a flatmate, she spends 95% of her time at her boyfriends, but she pays the rent, so I’m not gonna complain’
‘She’s the witch I’m guessing’
‘Yeah, she’s really nice, just never here’ Erine said ‘ It’s a change to have some company’
‘Thank you’ Jason smiled at her.
Erine looked at the clock, realising the time.
‘Shit, I gotta go have a shower before class’
‘Go ahead, I’ll wash up.’
“You don’t need to, I can do it later’
‘Its alright’
‘Ok, but you really don’t need to.’
Erine went to her bedroom first and grabbed the first clean outfit she saw, she then headed to the bathroom, stopping at the linen closet for towels.
She turned the shower on, waiting for the steam to rise and fill the bathroom. Her eyes wandered around the small room, and they settled on Jason’s T-shirt that lay on top of the laundry basket. She wanted him more then anything, here in the shower even. The thought of her pressed up against the cold tiles while he thrust himself into her, sent shivers down her spine.
Erine undressed, and stepped into the shower. It was if the water was cleansing her. She let it run over her, contemplating the days plans. Her thoughts were interrupted when she thought she heard the bathroom door open. Standing quietly for a while, she listened, a hand appeared around the shower curtain and pulled it back, Erine jumped.
‘I didn’t mean to scare you’ Jason said’ I just thought you might want some company’ to which he added a wink.
‘No you didn’t scare me, I was just thinking about you’ she replied pulling him under the water.
He pressed himself up against her body, letting his hand wander across her skin. Leaning forward, he kissed her, running his tongue across her lips then entering her mouth finding her tongue, entwining with it.
Erine felt him grow hard against her, she felt his hands find there way to her breasts, grabbing them, massaging them, then making there way to her nipples, where he playfully tugged them, making her moan in delight. Light kisses made there way down her neck, onto her collarbone and finally to her waiting breasts. He nibbled lightly at first, feeling her wriggle, he started to suck, Erine’s nails dug into his back, the water making the scratches burn.
Jason made his way back up to her mouth, kissing her with force. He stopped suddenly and turned her around, forcing her face first against the tiles. The coldness made her shudder slightly. He teased her with his hardness, just pushing the head in, then pulling it out, watching her try to push backwards onto it. He kept doing it watching her get hotter. Finally he pushed himself in right up to the hilt, feeling her walls give. Jason started to thrust into her, trapping her against the tiles, faster and faster he went, her moans becoming more intense. Her whole body tensed.
Erine felt her walls contract, as she clawed Jason’s thighs. She felt his hips thrust forward as he came. They stood there panting, under the water. She turned and kissed him, running her hands across his body.
She lent against him, one last time, before she grabbed a towel and got out of the shower.
‘Leaving already?’ he asked
‘Yeah, but the sooner I leave the sooner I get back’ Erine said as she watched the water run over his body.
‘True’
‘You staying here till I get back or are you going home to change?’
‘I think Ill go home, I can meet you here at say 1pm?’
‘Yeah sounds good’
He got out of the shower and wrapped his arms around her, kissing her neck, making it that much harder to leave.
