FERRY-LOVE-BOAT

Chapter 43

Maya's POV:

I stopped the car in front of the place I used to order pizza, we got out of the car and walked up to the counter. I ordered - respecting and fearing Carina's warning that there shouldn't be any kind of fruit on a pizza under any circumstances - and we were waiting standing in front of the counter while the employees were assisting other customers.

-Those pants make your ass look even hotter. - Carina's whisper against my ear caught me off guard. The woman was standing behind me, previously at a safe distance, but now with her body pressed against mine as her hands reached around my waist. I kept my arms folded against my chest even as a cold shiver ran through my skin. - I've never seen a woman with a more beautiful ass than yours.

-Yes? - My brain was too focused on the pleasure I felt having her so close to me, whispering compliments in my ear, that I couldn't formulate a more adequate response.

-Yes, you are the perfect woman for me. Your body is perfect for me. - She continued and didn't stutter at any point. Her confidence shone through every syllable, and I realized that my self-confidence was nothing compared to Carina's. - With all the right curves, your full breasts, your white skin that begs to be marked, your strong muscles, your big ass that fits against my hips perfectly.

As if to prove a point, Carina pressed the front of her pants against my ass, and I bit my lower lip hard not to moan at the more intimate contact. I felt her strong breathing against my ear, and whoever looked at the two of us and saw her whispering things in my ear with that smile, could not imagine the intense reactions she provoked in my body. I wasn't used to being on the other side, hearing these teasing words and having my body desired this way, I wasn't used to the reactions I was getting and didn't even know what to do, but I let my body be free to react the way it wanted to.

And I wanted to roll over against Carina, so I did. I discreetly threw my ass back and undulated against her front just once, but it was enough to hear her pulling the air through her teeth with a little difficulty.

-You're a tease, Maya. - She whispered again and moved away from my body, as if nothing had happened.

-Order for Bishop? - The attendant had precise timing.

I avoided eye contact with the waiter as much as possible as I picked up the pizza box because I knew I was completely red, hot and bothered, and we walked back to the car - with Carina giving me a little smile all the way to the vehicle.

-Are you okay? -She asked innocently as if she didn't know the reason for my embarrassment.

-I've never done this. - I confessed. - I've always been with men and women for the sake of sex, but there was no such thing.

-What is "this"? - She asked back.

-I don't know! - I grunted, starting the car and speeding out of the parking lot. - I had always been a top with women, but that only involved a few compliments, buying them drinks, and then taking them back to my place. I didn't have those touches.

-Such as those?  - She asked, sliding her hand to my thigh again, this time with her fingers dangerously close to the middle of my legs.

-Yes. - I swallowed. - Precisely those.

-What else wasn't present? - She asked back, and I could see that she was nibbling her lower lip.

-Those teases, whispers in my ear. - I confessed once again.

-Don't you like it?

-I do. - I was quick to answer, not caring if I sounded desperate. - But it wasn't something that happened, so I'm out of my comfort zone, I don't know what to do here, because I think this isn't just about sex.

-It's not. - It was her turn to be quick with her answer.

-It's intense. - I commented.

-Yes. - Her hand came down, her fingers now against my knee.

We stayed silent the rest of the drive, but it wasn't long before I parked in front of my building. Carina got out of the car with the pizza box in her hand and I took one last breath, gathering my courage, before following her toward the entrance of the building. My heart was pounding inside my chest as nervousness dried my mouth and made my hands tremble.

-So, why were you late? - Carina asked as the elevator took us to my floor. Her question embarrassed me, but there was no escaping it. I wouldn't lie.

-I messed up my room while I was getting ready to meet you. - The words came out quickly and I shoved both hands into my pants pockets.

-You know I don't care what you wear, right? - Carina let out a low chuckle. - And I don't care how messy your room is.

-I really hope you don't, because I hope you're the cause of my room's mess at the end of the night. - I joked and laughed, Carina's mouth opening in shock. - Look at that, I seem to have left you speechless for the first time tonight.

-I hope it's the first time of many. - She winked at me, and the doors opened in front of us.

Carina walked straight to the front door of my apartment; when we entered, she said she would get some plates for our dinner and even though I was used to eating pizza using my hands, I doubted that an elegant woman like Carina used to do that.

-Can you get the glasses and the wine from the fridge too, please? I'll get the fire going. - I said, pointing to the cabinet where she would find the glasses.

-Of course! - She answered, moving around the kitchen.

I was quite focused on the activity so that I could light the fire safely, smiling at my skills when I managed to light it on the first try, and with the fire poker in hand I stirred the wood.

-Here, Bambina. - Carina handed me a cup. - Can you hold mine for a moment?

-Of course. - I held our cups, sipped from mine, and moaned softly at the delicious taste on my tongue. Carina had asked me to hold her glass so that she could take off her jacket, and I licked my lips unconsciously at the sight.

I watched her movements and drank some more of the wine, Carina smiled sideways as she carefully folded her coat and placed it on the couch. She reached out and took her glass back, drinking the red liquid right away before she approached me without a word and tilted her face towards mine, sealing our lips affectionately. There was no hurry, it was a careful, tender, lip-rubbing that made me sigh.

-I've wanted to do this since the first moment I saw you today. - She whispered as we pulled away. - Should we eat?

-Yes. -I answered with a smile and felt my cheeks warming up.

The pizza was delicious, Carina had eaten two slices and although I had the potential to eat at least three, the nervousness had taken away some of my appetite. Carina was drinking another glass of wine - I was on my third, the first one was gone too quickly as I tried to calm my nerves and I was glad I didn't get drunk easily - sitting next to me on the couch, facing the fireplace.
