DAKOTA POV;
I'm concerned about Jordan and I's relationship. It just doesn't feel the same anymore and I can't quite put my finger on why. Our phone conversation was brief and awkward at best, but I'm hoping seeing him in person tonight will fix all of that. Or if not fix it at least give me some much needed reassurance that it will eventually be okay after we get through whatever it is we're going through. I'm hoping the only distance between us is the miles not some sort of internal distance.
"Today is the day!" Jamie yells, interrupting my angsty thoughts. He's looking far too cheerful for my anxious mood. Is he talking about my date with Jordan? Since when did he care so much? I must be giving him an unpleasant look because his smile drops slightly. "You're seeing the red room today." He reminds me, and I giggle, just now remembering. Why would he ever be so excited about Jordan and I? I feel ridiculous even thinking he was talking about that. My mood goes up instantly as I realize how special today is for me. I put my worries about Jordan and I to the back of my head as best I can and run off to hair and makeup. I can't let him ruin my headspace when I'm in the middle of one of the biggest experiences of my life. I know that whatever happens today I need to keep that in mind.
The cameras lock in on us and I watch anxiously as Jamie's hand turns the knob and he opens the door to the red room. I follow him in, filled with excitement and curiosity. I've been waiting for this moment for weeks now, yet part of me feels unprepared. The lights come on and my mind is blown. I'm stunned by the sheer elegance and beauty the room holds and filled with wonder seeing all the devices and toys displayed around the room. I catch sight of a camera out of the corner of my eye and I know it's capturing my real authentic reaction as I wanted. For a moment I completely forget I'm supposed to be in character until Jamie's eyes shift towards mine indicating that it's time to say my lines.
When Sam calls cut I finally release the breath I didn't realize I had been holding. "God! This is amazing!" The words come exploding out of my mouth but I no longer care about trying to control my reaction. I look at my surroundings in pure amazement, finally getting to take it all in without any cameras on me. My fingertips spread over a flogger and I give it a light snack. Jamie's laughter echoes behind me and I turn around to smirk at him. "What's so funny?" I ask, arching a brow at him, flogger in hand. "It's just really great to be able to witness your reaction to all of this. For so long I was the only one who knew what this room was like." I smile and take a quick glance around the room. "It's really beautiful isn't it? Sensual." He nods in agreement. "Hey you two! We're calling it a day now!" The few crew members left in the room tells us and as Jamie turns to wave them out I get a funny idea. My fingers lock around the flogger and lips curl into a mischievous grin. I flick my wrist and the flogger comes down and smacks Jamie's ass. He jumps back and bursts out laughing, registering what I've just done. "I'm gonna get you back for that!" He threatens, but I know it's empty threats. "Okay...sure..." I set the flogger back down in its spot and sprawl out on the massive bed. "You know they said we're done for the day. We can leave now." Jamie says, his cheeks still tinged pink from my playful swat with the flogger. "I think I'm gonna lay here for a while. It's actually quite nice." I cuddle into the bed, enjoying the smooth comforting feel of it and my voice takes on a more teasing tone. "Seriously you should come sit down. Unless you have somewhere else to be?" I only add the last part to remind myself that Jamie does have much more important things to do in his free time than hang out with me. "I don't have anywhere to be right now. I thought you did though. What happened to... Jordan? I was under the impression you had plans." He asks, with an edge of disapproval in his voice. I ignore his tone, sticking to the hope that Jordan will really impress me tonight. "He'll call when he's ready." Jamie gives me a doubtful look and I roll my eyes. Why's he being such an ass about this? I've never once been so disapproving about his relationship with Amelia. Just at that moment my phone starts to ring, proving Jamie wrong.
My dinner with Jordan went even better than expected. The conversation was slow, but we had plenty to drink so it wasn't awkward. Then after to top off the night per my suggestion we went out dancing at a nearby club. The lights flashed all around us sending glimmers of light all about the room as our bodies swayed together in sync with the beat. All the grinding and kissing and drinking out on the dance floor only increased the sexual frustration I've been feeling since we've been apart. I couldn't keep my hands of him and he certainly felt the same towards me. Now, as we drunkenly stumble into my hotel room my only thought is to figure out how to get myself out of this dress as fast as possible. I kick my heels off in the most ungraceful fashion and twist and turn, trying to get my hand on the zipper of my dress without falling over. "Unzip me." Jordan does as I say and unzips the back of my dress, letting the slinky sequin covered material fall to the floor. I turn and kiss Jordan, sucking and biting at his lower lip for a moment before I climb onto the bed. "Come here." I gesture with my finger for him to get on the bed with me and he does tugging off his pants as he does. His hands grab my hips and pull me up so my back is arched perfectly to match him and I bury my face in the pillow as he eases himself into me, gently at first, then harder, rougher. I moan and twist from side to side just slightly, allowing him to go deeper. My moans are lost in the pillow as I find my release and all my anger, stress, anxiety, and frustration from the past weeks are released as well.
