The Landlord

ten - mood shifter

"How many of us are here?" I asked her referring to her tenants. I was sitting on her; her hands are wrapped in my waist. She keeps kissing me to my lips, down to my neck.

I never seen her crave for something.

"9" she answered quickly but then she continued showering me kisses. I held her hand to stop her and that caught her attention immediately.

"I have a class early in the morning." I told her, as if she doesn't know. "And you have a work to do..." I paused and cleared my throat, "As my principal." That must be awkward to say but I still did.

Finally, she let go of me. I stood up, while her, still in the same position. Sitting straightly on a block chair.

"Goodnight, Larissa."

She wasn't responding. This is my first time not feeling her authority. She is weak right now and it's not so her.

I slowly walked away.

"Wait." I quickly turned around when she spoke. I would be really upset if she didn't. "W-Will you..."

I raised my brows as a sign that I am waiting for what she is about to say.

"Will you mind sleeping with me?" she asked sincerely, "I mean, just sleep. Please?" Her eyes are pleading and it's making me weak too. I don't know what's in her but as of now, I am willing to do everything for her.

I smiled and softly nodded. She flashed a smile as she stands up. I followed her as she walks outside on the way to her room which is only beside her office.

"Come in." she said as she opens the door.

My eyes sparkled with what I saw. There are a lot of paintings and sculptures. I was fascinated and I couldn't remove my eye at them. This is how I wish my room would look like. I entered delightly and then she locked the door.

"You can stare at them but can you please not touch them?" she said referring to her paintings and sculptures.

"Oh sure"

She did not respond. Instead, she starts to undress herself. Starting with her dress, she unbottoned it. I was just staring. She said to stare but not touch, right?

When she was about to face me, I turned around.

"Come here..."

I glanced at her, she was already on the bed covered with a comforter. She is naked.

I walked towards her as she opens her arms. I lay down beside her and then she embraced me. And this is the most warmest hug that I've ever felt in my entire life. A hug that makes me feel safe and loved.

"What are your thoughts right now?" she whispered in my ear and then she starts to kiss my hair.

"Hmm...I'm thinking..."

"Of what, darling?" she asked curiously.

"That you look like a dim sum."

She giggled in my ear. "Pardon me, I never sleep with clothes." she tightened her grip on me.

"Are you sleepy? You want me to remove your makeup for you?" I was about to get the tissue beside her lamp but she briskly grabbed my hand to stop me.

"I'll remove it when you fell asleep.."  she looked down, "I'm not confident with my bareface." she starts to caress my shoulder down to my arms.

"I'm sorry." I said in an upset tone, "But you are very beautiful, Larissa." I stared at her eyes down to her lips; she gave me a beam.

"You should sleep." she sniffed my hair and then she placed her hand on my back. I felt more warmer and I'm loving it.
