Tiana's Perspective

"Let it hurt then let it go."-R. H. Sin

•••••

     THE room was dark and cold when I awoke filled with emptiness, where was he? I sat up feeling at ease and relaxed with limp legs. My mind soared throughout a million thoughts wondering where he could have gone. I got up from the bed slipping on a pair of his slides that were placed by the bedroom door. My feet looked miniature in them, I walked up the hall finding the bathroom empty. The living room light was off but a lamp was lit in the corner. Jody laid across the couch with his eyes closed and Owen was still nowhere to be found. Hopefully he'd be back soon. A feeling of worry and sadness washed over me as I stood in the living room with only a long top on. Although I felt good physically my body needed to be washed.

     I went back into his bedroom searching for my overnight bag. I stripped out of my shirt folding it up. After pulling out a fresh pair of nightclothes I grabbed my soap and towel heading to the bathroom to shower. I took a thirty-minute shower cleaning up really good, once brushing my teeth and moisturizing I fixed my messy hair pulling it up into my bonnet. He had catered to my body so well that it was almost hard to believe. The way he licked left me in a frenzy to a point where I could only see white and mumble incoherent words. The gentle yet roughness manner of handling me he possessed had somewhat cleansed my entire temple leaving me weak and needy. 

     I went back into the quiet living room and Owen still wasn't back yet. I was going to give it about twenty-minutes before giving him a call. I sat on the sofa with my legs crossed turning on the television. As soon as I switched channels I heard the front door opening up. I turned around to find Owen carrying a bag of to-go plates and two cups in a drink carrier. I stood up walking over to help him.

"You finally up?" He asked chuckling sitting the stuff down on the kitchen island.

"Was I out for a while?"

He closed and locked the front door, "Hell yeah I took a shower and everything. Then I got hungry but I didn't want to wake you." He took his phone out of his pocket walking past me to his bedroom.

I stood in his way unintentionally.

"Oh sorry," I moved holding my hands together.

He chuckled shaking his head.

     A nervousness surrounded me around him now that I couldn't control. I rarely got nervous around Owen because our energy and vibe always just clicked. Maybe it was because I had been so open with him about my past or the fact that he left me with wobbly knees with just the use of his tongue. I had never been pleasured on that level before goosebumps arose on me when in his presence now. He came back up the hall meeting eyes with mine. When walking past me going into the kitchen he lightly pinched my side.

"You hungry?" He asked opening up the plastic bag pulling out two plates.

"Starving," I shifted my weight onto one leg playing with the hairs on the back of my neck.

"Aight, you good?"

"Yeah," I walked into the kitchen watching him in his element. He just looked too good without even trying.
