Off Camera

Chapter 13

A/N:  Well, my short story has evolved into something that is quickly growing into something which isn't so short anymore.  I don't know exactly where and when the story will end, but as long as the storyline keeps flowing, I'll keep write.  hehehee...

Tee POV

I drag my feet into my apartment. I'm exhausted and feel like I have weights tied to me, holding me down.

This was supposed to be an amazing night with Tae. We were going to finally have an evening together, and I was hopefully going to find exactly where the two of us stand. Are we in a relationship or is this 'friends with benefits'?

My heart cracks thinking about it. My eyes glisten and sting as I shuffle my way into my bedroom and toss the duffle bag on the floor.

An aching heaviness fills my chest, but I don't want to think about it right now. I head towards the bathroom and try to think of anything but Tae.

After I take my shower, I stand in front of the sink naked and stare at the steamed over mirror, wondering how I got to this point. I don't have the energy to even grab a towel to wipe myself off or wrap it around me.

As I stare at the fogged over glass, my mind goes to the one thing I've been trying to avoid all day. Tae.

This was going to be a new beginning, but now it is anything but that. My happiness has turned into agony within 24 hours. How am I going to fix this? Or can it even be fixed?

I let out a long breath, wishing things would have gone differently.

I know what my heart wants, but can it survive if I can't have what I want?

BANG! BANG! BANG!!

My head pops up. Who is that?

I grab a towel from the cabinet and rush out of the bathroom.

BANG!! BANG!! BANG!!

As I run through the apartment, I wrap the towel around my waist, hurrying as fast as I can. The idiot is going to wake up the entire floor if he keeps...

BANG!!

Anger rushes through my veins. "HOLD ON!! I'M COMING!!"

I don't look to see who it is before I whip open the door. "WHAT..."

My words stick in my throat as Tae's worried face greets me, but his concern soon morphs to something else as his eyes scan me from head to toe. His gaze darkens as his eyes stop on my bare chest.

A part of me jumps for joy, while another part remembers how close he was with that woman today. Before I can decide whether to be mad or excited, he puts his large hand on my bare chest and pushes me backwards.

A warm shiver runs down my back, and my breath hitches, but I don't protest.

His warmth seeps into my skin and sets off a wave of butterflies fluttering in my stomach. All my bad thoughts and anger I had only moments ago fade away in a blink of an eye.

I fight the growing urge to lean into his hand, wanting more.

He walks in and shuts the door behind him.

As soon as the door clicks, his chest heaves, and his eyes darken even more. I bite my lower lip and stare back at him. His hungry eyes rake over my body again and this time linger on my towel. Annoyance flashes across his face before he pulls his attention up to my face.

The air around us buzzes with electricity and anticipation.

He gently flexes his fingers and slides them along my pale, smooth chest.

My heart races, and my breathing becomes shallow as heat rushes through me. A desire ignites within me, while my mind keeps reminding me of who he spent the day with.

As my internal battle wages, Tae launches forward and captures my mouth with his luscious lips. He snakes one arm around me and pulls me flush against his firm body.

A small moan slips from me. "Ahhh..."

My battle instantly ends with my body and desire winning.

He plunges his tongue into my mouth, but I want something else plunging into me instead.

My manhood springs to life as my hips thrust forward, looking for the delicious friction only he can give me. I almost squeal in delight when I brush against his growing bulge.

My walls crumble down around me, and I toss my anger to the side to relish in his godlike body.

My fingers comb through the back of his short black hair, grabbing some in my fist. I tug at it, not to break our connection, but to get his sexy voice to talk to me. The one which makes my knees wobble and propels me to my limit.

Pleasure surges through me as he hisses. His deep, raspy voice stirs the beast within me. "Ah... Tee.."

I want him. Now.

I let go of his hair and claw at the hem of his shirt, wanting it off immediately. He breaks our kiss and pulls his shirt off. As he tosses it to the side, he softly whines, "You weren't at my house. I had to come to you."

He doesn't let me reply before he latches back onto my mouth. I slide my fingers down to the front of his pants and undo them. Within seconds, his remaining clothes fly in various directions, and he is naked.

Tae clamps his mouth down on my neck as I close my eyes and let my head fall backwards, savoring all the feelings consuming me.

With a flick of his wrist, he yanks the towel off me. Now there is something stopping us from molding into one.

I wrap my arm around his neck as his large hands slide down the back of my legs and lift me into the air.

I let out a small gasp as I tighten my hold around his neck and wrap my legs around his waist. Our hard shafts briefly rub against each other.

Just like our first night together, he doesn't have to do much before I reach my limit.

In only a few long strides, he reaches the couch and gently sets me down while he hovers over the top of me. Almost like déjà vu, he whispers, "I didn't bring anything with me. Sorry."

My legs tighten around him as I caress the bad of his head. "I don't care. I want you."

His moist lips linger on my sensitive neck for a moment before he leans back and looks lovingly into my eyes. His gaze softens and his tenderness is back in his dark brown eyes, but his hunger flickers through from time to time. "Are you sure?"

I don't even have to think as I reply, "Yes."

***

My body aches and the smell of sex hangs in the air as I snuggle against Tae's side in my dimly lit bedroom. My head rests on his shoulder, and our bare skin molds together as if we are made for each other.

This is my heaven.

I glide my finger across his broad chest and circle around his harden nipple. Images of him from earlier dance in my head while our moans echo in my ears.

A smile tugs at the corners of my mouth. "Tae."

He tightens his arm around shoulder. "Yeah."

I don't want to ruin the mood, but my curiosity and possessiveness are winning.

I swallow down the lump in my throat and nibble on my bottom lip before I timidly ask, "Who was that woman earlier? She was glued to you like her life depended on it."

His body tenses, and his heartbeat quickens.

My finger freezes on his chest while my stomach sinks.
