9. Come

Chituru stayed with Tim the entire day. They watched TV, talked and laughed both trying to get their minds off of tonights' task.

Once it was 12:00am, Tim got up, mumurred good night and climbed upstairs. Chituru stayed back, the TV on but muted.
Tim laid in bed till 1:10am unable to sleep. Wondering what would happen and if their plan would work. Finally, he was able to doze off around 3:15am.

Tim...
Tim...
Tim got up. He heard his name but he had no idea who called him. He looked around the room, consciously checking if everything was in place. The room was empty except for him. He laid back down to sleep, believing it was nothing.
Tim...
Timothy...
He heard it again. Soft, sooting, alluring. His head felt heavy, his mind clouded. He shook his head in an attempt to clear it his mind but it was futile.

'Water will clear my head'. He said to himself.
He got up from his bed and walked to his bathroom, while rubbing his forehead. He turned on the faucets once he got to his bathroom sink and splashed water on his face, still bent, he grabbed the face towel hanging beside the sink and stood up to look at his reflection in the mirror. That's when he saw her, or her reflection. She stood directly behind him.

Shock was the first thing that registered on his face and then weariness.

'What do you want?' he asked while gazing at her reflection. 'Why do you torment me so?'
She cocked her head to her right and smiled, as if his questions were the silliest thing she had ever heard.
'God help him she was gorgeous'. Tim thought to himself. He refused to allow his thoughts reflect on his face. He had to remain in control. He can't allow her beauty throw him off.

'You'
'What?!'
'I want you'.

Tim was thrown off. His thought process failed him along with his ability to speak.
A sultry smile decorated her naked lips, naked lips on a face so devoid of anything unnatural... except those eyes... those translucent violet blue eyes.

Slowly, silently, he turned to face her. The smile remained plastered on her face. Their faces only inches apart. He noticed she was tall for a lady. He was still taller than her but by a few inches. He watched as she stood on top toes, kept watching as her face slowly came up to his, those eyes never wavering, her lips only a hares' breath away from his. The tension was sharp. He could feel her breath on his and she moved past his lips till she got to his right ear.
One word was all she said but it was enough for Tim.

'Come'.
