Rickel***

The sun was going down and was creating a beautiful scenery. Reese sat in my lap on the balcony as we watched the sun go down behind the horizon.

"This is so beautiful.....its calm, relaxing, quiet. I could stay here forever."

"I know right. When I want to get away from the world around me, this is where I come. I'm so grateful to my parents for owning this place."

Reese closed her eyes and laid her head on my chest. The peaceful look on her face was warming my heart. It's hard to believe that this was the same girl that practically raped me last night.

"Hey Reese. Can I ask you something?"

"Go ahead." She answered without opening her eyes.

"Why did you just....have sex with me like that last night?"

Her eyes popped opened.

"Don't get me wrong. I enjoyed it but it was just.....unexpected."

She cleared her throat and shuffled to get off my lap but I held her firmly.

"Stop....it's Ok. You don't have to answer right away but when you're ready I'll be here. You can talk to me Reese."

She looked away from my gaze and sighed. "It's complicated."

She leaned back against my chest and closed her eyes again. It wasn't in my character to pry in other people's businesses but I knew something or someone caused her to act like that last night.

"It's Gaby."

I waited for her to continue but twenty minutes later she was still silent and had her eyes closed. If Reese thought me anything, it was patience. You need patience to deal with her. All I wanted to do was shout at her to just say what she's saying and get it over with. I am not really a fan of suspense.

"We had a fight."

Silence.

"I don't think we're ever going to be friends again."

"Why would you say that?" I asked. "Whatever the problem is, I'm sure you guys can work it out."

Reese shook her head against my chest. "No. I have been a real bitch to her."

"What did you do?"

She didn't answer so I had to wait on her again. This damn girl is going to make me use up all the patience I've got. 

My mind started wondering what bitchy thing Reese could have done to Gaby and I was coming up empty.

"I knew she was dating my ex boyfriend and I didn't say anything. I just kept my damn mouth shut and let her find out on her own."

"Hmmm....that's rough."

She hissed her teeth. "I'm not a good friend. I don't deserve her friendship. I let her go out with the same jerk who caused me to get raped. What kind of friend does that?"

I felt a shiver run down my spine when she mentioned the rape knowing that I was the one who raped her. Reese continued talking, unaware that I was affected.

"And the dress I used to wear that Aaron loved.... I let Gaby wear it on their first date. Tell me I don't deserve a harsh punishment."

My naughty mind was thinking of harsh punishments to inflict upon her but I made sure to keep them to myself.

"Don't say that. I'm sure you had a reason for not telling her....and even if you didn't, I don't think she'll let a guy come between you two."

Reese laughed humorlessly, completely ignoring my advice. "You want to know how she found out?"

I nodded. "How?"

"Last night when I went to her apartment, he was there. She left us in the room by ourselves and he started hitting on me. He was talking about how he still loved me and all that garbage.....and he even had the audacity to say we can be in a three way relationship."

She was breathing heavily when she finished talking and my blood was heating up. I wanted to find Aaron and punch him across his face. I really don't like people hitting on my woman.

I wrapped my arms around her and held her closely to me. "If your friendship meant anything to her, I'm sure Gaby will come around soon. Just give her some time."

I don't know if my advice was making any sense to her but she seemed to relax somewhat. I didn't ask anymore questions and she didn't give anymore information. We just sat in silence.

I could tell that Reese valued her friendship with Gaby and I started thinking of ways to get them back together. Maybe I could set them up on a date, lock them in a room until they resolve their differences. I shook my head and decided against that idea. Gaby is black, Reese is latina. They might end up killing each other.

"I had sex with you last night just to clear my head. I used you."

I couldn't say that didn't hurt a bit but I understood what she was saying. "No it's ok. I get it."







"While I'm here, we're only going to have real, meaningful sex."

I didn't know what real, meaningful sex meant but I liked where the conversation was heading.

"I've never been in a hot tub before." Reese still had her eyes closed.

Oh my Lord.

I was getting hard already. I cleared my throat. "Well you're in luck because we have one here."

She opened her eyes and stared up at me. "Can I make it up to you for last night?"

Her big, brown eyes were turning me on, making me so happy I planned this trip. "Sure....but how?"

Her eyes traveled over to the hot tub. "You could show me how to use it....its my first time so I'll need some instructions."

She is going to kill me!

I breathed in and out steadily, trying to keep my composure. "Okay." I shrugged nonchalantly. 

Reese got up from my lap and slowly stripped down to her underwear. I leaned backed and enjoyed the entertainment. This girl surely knows how to tease a guy.

She walked toward the hot tub then turned to look at me. "You coming? I can't wait for you to teach me." She bit her lips and winked at me.

I stripped quickly and joined her in the tub. I had no idea I had so much passion inside me as I made love to her over and over again.
