Standing in your way

Chapter 35

I remain still with my head resting on her chest, our breaths slowly calming down and synchronizing.
Her hand rests on the back of my neck, stroking my head gently, I could seriously fall asleep here.

I raise my head to meet her gaze, her head is thrown back resting on the chair, as soon as she feels me move she raises it and meets my eyes

"Everything ok?" she asks me, I smile

"Of course, perfect" she smiles at me and places a hand on my cheek, caressing it.
We stand there looking at each other, both with the same thought in our heads, but both afraid of asking the other. And what do we do now?

I exhale and get sad also looking down at her still unbuttoned shirt, her other hand which is located on my thigh starts to move

"Speak, I know you want to ask me something" she tells me, my lips tightening automatically

"Is this really the last time then?" I ask her with my voice almost breaking due to an unknown agitation, she straightens up in her chair, my gaze remains fixed downwards, I don't want to see her face.

At a certain point two of her fingers rest under my chin making it lift to meet her gaze

“Do you want this to be the last time?” she asks as her eyes search mine, I shake my head

"No" I say almost in a whisper, the corners of her lips curve up slightly, the hand that was under my chin moves up my cheek reaching for the other

"Me neither" she replies, a smile forms on my lips, which soon after find themselves attached to hers

"Enough, I have to go now" I tell her after I pull away, she throws her head back and then brings it back up looking at me and covering my leg as a sign to get up.

I get up and look for my clothes, Lydia hands me the panties and bra smirking as she watches me get dressed

“Do you like the vision?” I ask her, fastening my bra and winking at her, she licks her lips and raises her eyebrows

"Beautiful, but the first one was better" she replies, fastening the last remaining button of her shirt, I smile like an idiot continuing to look for my clothes.
After getting dressed and taking our things, we go out and say goodbye, then each of us goes our own way.

As soon as I get into the car and close the door I put my head on the headrest and laugh, I still can't believe everything that happened, I absolutely have to update Sarah

"Hey hello" she replies, I feel that her mouth is full of food, maybe I'm bothering her

"Hey, am I bothering you by any chance?" I ask her, placing a hand on the steering wheel

"No, don't worry, I'm with someone for a moment but tell me everything" she replies, I hear her get up from the chair and walk away

"Then I'll call you later"

"No, come on, tell me briefly" I smile as I look out the window at her Porsche driving away

"Well in short Lydia and I had sex" I tell her closing my eyes ready to hear some screams, but instead only silence

"Sarah?" I call her

"We'll talk about it at your house tonight, okay?" she replies, my smile fades suddenly, it's definitely not the reaction I was expecting

"Oh uhm okay" I reply, my tone of voice decidedly sadder

"Sorry but now I have to say goodbye, see you tonight!" she tells me, I say goodbye and hang up.
I drop my hand with the phone on my lap, is it a bad thing that Lydia and I have gotten closer?
