I could see the shock on Haerin's face after I said it, and it almost made me laugh. "What?" she asked, nearly stumbling over her words. The music was still blaring out of speakers, but I could hear her clearly.

"You heard me," I said simply, watching her swallow down the lump in her throat. I'd never seen her this nervous. Usually, she made me feel this way, and don't get me wrong, I love it, but seeing her like this was incredibly hot.

She nodded, processing what I had said, before grabbing my hand and leading me out of the party. Her car was parked a bit down the road as neither of us were planning on drinking tonight. We walked in silence, and I could feel the tension between us rising with every minute as we drove back to her house. I made sure to put my hand on her leg as she drove, and watched as she fought the urge to move it higher up, keeping her eyes on the road.

After what felt like hours, we parked on her drive, and she got out with me following close behind. I could tell by the way her hands fumbled with her keys that she was rushing to get in. She opened the door and stepped aside to let me in before whispering, "We need to be quiet, my parents are in." I nodded and took her hand, trying to do my best doe eyes. By the way she bit her lip, I could tell it worked.

We walked quietly up the stairs and into her bedroom, where she shut the door and leaned back against it. Her breathing was already heavy as I walked back towards her. I traced my thumb down her cheek before running it briefly over her lip. My eyes lingered on hers for a second before I leaned in. I was being teasing and slow as I kissed her, enjoying how impatient she was getting. I could tell she was turned on, especially when I moved back from the kiss and she leaned her head onto the door behind her, whispering, "Please, baby."

It was attractive seeing her like this—her parted lips, slightly messed-up hair, her breaths still heavy, and her eyes fluttering closed as I pressed gentle kisses along her jaw, down below her earlobe, and onto her neck. She let out slight whimpers but overall kept quiet as I sucked on her neck, running my tongue over it afterward, creating red marks.

I guided her to take off her T-shirt, which revealed a slightly toned stomach, her breathing accentuating her breasts, which were covered by a lacy black bra. I led her to the bed, and she took off her jeans before laying down and propping herself up with her elbows. I made a show of undoing the buttons of my shirt extra slowly, making her desire even harder to bear. After a minute, I was fully undressed, only standing there in my red lingerie, which I had put on in the hopes that something might happen.

I saw her eyes trail down my body and darken even more at the sight. I've never been one to show my body to everyone, but I still know that I have a good figure. I walked slowly over to her and hovered above her before kissing her gently. One of my hands moved down to palm her breast, and I heard her stifle a moan.

"If you're already moaning at this, then we might have a problem," I whispered into her ear before kissing her neck again. "Stay quiet, baby."

She nodded, and I pushed her back gently, her head landing on the bed, her eyes fluttering closed. My hand moved from her bra to her panties, and I played with the hem, teasing her. I felt her hand take hold of mine and try to push it further down, but I restrained, moving my hand away from hers. I heard her sigh, and I pulled down the matching black panties she had on.

I kissed down her hip bone, leaving hickeys, before trailing my tongue over her thigh. I heard her whimper, and finally, I stopped teasing. Two of my fingers slid inside her, and I saw her slap a hand to her mouth as I moved them in and out. Her hands gripped the bed sheets so hard that her knuckles were turning white, and I bit my lip at the sight. I could tell she was getting close, so I ran my tongue lightly over her clit before flicking it with my tongue. I felt her tightening around me, as she let out a series of heavy breaths, trying not to make a noise.

"Baby," I heard her say as I slowed down my rhythm and gently pulled my fingers out of her. Her breathing was labored as I hovered over her once again and put my fingers into my mouth, making sure that she watched as I sucked the excess off my fingers.

"You're fucking amazing," she breathed out, a lazy smile on her face as she caught her breath. She leaned up slightly and kissed me, her hand tucking a bit of hair behind my ear.

"I'm tired," she said, and I could see her eyes looking a bit heavy.

"Me too, sleep?"

She nodded and got under the covers, keeping her arm up so I could lay my head on her chest before she wrapped it around my shoulders.

"Goodnight, Dani," she whispered as she kissed my head.

"Night, baby."
