Chapter 8: Many nights

November's Beginning

I was hot and sweaty by the time we finished. Kourtney rolled onto her side to face me; my silk sheet wrapped around her body. She rested a hand on my chest, her long, freshly done nails tickled me. I stuffed a hand behind my head with a sigh, staring up at my ceiling. Outside, the city was bustling. I could hear the honks of cars and the laughter of people on their balconies from my open window. A light breeze ruffled my curtains slightly and the brown curls framed Kourtney's face.

"What are you thinking about?" Kourtney's voice was laced with lingering lust, making her sound sexier than usual. She propped herself up on her elbow and looked down at me.

My mind was on everything but the girl lying naked next to me, it was constantly dancing back to a different girl and her loving hands and glowing smile. I felt guilty. How could I be lying naked next to someone and thinking of another?

"Nothing, baby," I say, focusing on Kourtney. She smiled down at me. She brushed her fingertips across my cheek lovingly.

I admired her quietly. She was a pretty girl...

She had a round face, full lips, and almond-shaped eyes. Her skin was warmly tanned, like caramel, and just as smooth. Her eyes were a hazel brown that glittered at times like this.

I pulled her down to me and locked my lips with hers. Something about her made me want her, but...she wasn't what I wanted. I wanted something that I couldn't have.

Her soft breaths danced with mine, and I caught her bottom lip between my teeth. I sucked on it lightly before sliding my tongue into her mouth.

She let out a soft moan and settled on top of me, her breast pressed up against my chest, a thin slip of fabric between us. I removed my hand from under my head and rested it on her waist, the other was tangled up in her hair.

"Mmm, baby," She muttered as my hands began roaming the plains of her body.

I pulled away from the kiss briefly catching my breath before I dived back in.

Kourtney slid her leg across my body and straddled me, never breaking the kiss.

She pulled away, pushing her body up, her hands pressed into the pillow beside my head.

The sheet fell from across her chest, and I couldn't help but admire her openly.

She was a very pretty girl.

"I can't get enough of you," She whispered before coming back to me.

I watched her tug her shirt over her head as I lay on the bed.

"You hungry?" I asked.

She glanced at me through the mirror on my wall. Her hands were tangled up in her hair, trying to pull it into some sort of bun atop her head. She was growing frustrated, her bottom lip poked out cutely.

"Yeah," she said distractedly. I watched her struggle from my spot on the bed for a few more seconds before I stood. I grabbed my sweats off the floor and pulled them on.

Her hands fell to her side as I walked up behind her.

"What do you want to eat, Babygirl?" I asked, pulling her hair up and holding it in a secure ponytail with my hand. She passed me a hair tie.

"Ummm..." Her hand fluttered up to her lips absentmindedly. She pressed her pointer to her bottom lip. I smiled at her adoringly before finishing her bun and pulling away.

"How's that?" I asked. I backed away and took a seat at the foot of my bed.

She nodded approvingly.

"I can order Pizza, and we can watch movies and shit," I searched around my room for my phone.

Last night things got pretty...heated, quickly. So, half our shit was strewn across the floor-quite hazardously- if I might add.

I spotted it on the side of the bed and swiped it up quickly. I check the time and my notifications.

It was only 10 a.m...

I had assumed it was much later in the day, considering the activities we were engaging in earlier.

And as far as I could tell there were no important messages or missed calls. A few from customers and one from Pedro going on about some girl. 

Kourtney walked over to the bed and flopped down beside me. She spread her arms wide atop the mattress and rolled her head in my direction.

"So," she says. Her voice is soft and silvery. "What are we going to eat?" She says.

"Uh, it's only Ten, so you want breakfast?"

"Sure," she says with a shrug.

In the end, I took her to breakfast at the little restaurant down the street from my building called Sunny Side. It was new. I remember the original one being on another street a few years back. The new spot was much larger with a little more bustle than usual. I was glad for the owners. 

K ordered pancakes and turkey bacon, and I just settled for a black coffee. We talked about our plans for the day. It was a Monday, and considering that we were seniors this year, we had early block periods. So, neither of us had to be at school until well into the afternoon. My first class wasn't until about three, and hers was at two.

K planned to get her nails done with her little friends, while I'd go to the gym with Pedro before class. I wasn't sure as to why she needed or wanted to get her nails done. They were already done. I don't know...I guess it's just a girl thing?

I thanked the Lord for how short school days were. I guess being a senior who only has about two classes a day was something of a perk in itself. 

After breakfast, I dropped Kourtney off at her place, so she could get dressed and ready for the day, by that time it was about 12:30.

"I'll see you later, baby," I kissed her before she stepped out of the car. I waited for her to close her front door before I pulled off.
