Distant Road

The Foreign Road

It's been forever since I interacted with someone. We talked for a bit on the ride back to my house but he soon fell asleep. He looked peaceful and it made me envious that he could sleep so soundly.

When I pulled up to my house I was trying to figure out how to get him into the spare bedroom without waking him. I got out of the truck and when I closed my door and walked over to his side, he started to wake.
I opened his door and he looked at me groggily.

"Come on I'll show you to the spare bedroom." I motioned for him to get out of the truck.

He hopped out and followed me into the house. He looked around curiously.

"Wow you built yourself quite a home here." He adjusted the bag hanging off his shoulder and looked back at me.

"Took me a year and a half and honestly it was all a blur."

We walked up the stairs and I opened up the door to the spare bedroom. He walked in and gently set his bag on the bed.

"This is way more than I could have asked for, thank you so much."

I smiled at him before I replied.

"It's the least I could do. It's been a while since I've had any sort of company. But you must be very tired so rest and then I'll wake you in time for dinner." He nodded and I closed the door.

I slid my back down the door and sat there with my head in my hands.

What was I even doing? Letting this stranger, well very good looking stranger into my home. There was a feeling in my gut telling me that this was a bad idea...but I just kept hearing Julie laughing at me saying I was being circumspect. But I knew deep down if she were still with me I'd never be how I am today.

I miss her beautiful eyes.

I must have fallen asleep against the door because Luna was whining and licking my face. I looked at my watch a sighed realizing I'd slept for two hours.

I got up and went downstairs. I let Luna outside and started to cook dinner. If I was being truthful, I hadn't cooked anything substantial in over 6 months. I had been hitting an especially rough patch. I was making a recipe Darren and I perfected together. I hoped Karter loved it as much as him and I did.
When I finished setting the table, I walked upstairs and quietly opened up his door. He was laying there like he had just passed out as soon as he hit the sheets.

I sat down on the arm chair in the corner and studied his face. Every time I looked at him he got more attractive. I wanted to run my hands through his golden locks and press my body against his.

I shook myself out of the trance I was under. I guess living on my own away from everyone else for 8 years really made me feel lonely. Once in a while there's a need and a longing for sex that has to be fulfilled. When this sexy stranger showed up my lady parts suddenly woke up from their slumber.

I got up from the chair and walked over to the bed. I slid my finger over his cheek and his eyes fluttered open. He didn't look shocked in the slightest. He slid his hand over my waist and onto my back. He pulled me down to his face until I could feel his breath on my lips.
The hand he had put on my back was now touching my skin. He had lifted my shirt up a little. The skin to skin contact gave me goose bumps. His ocean blue eyes looked at me with such desire. When his eyes landed on my lips I got closer and closer. We were so close.

"Ryan—"

For some reason, my name on his tongue just got the fire inside me hotter and hotter.
