I got a text from Nine as soon as I was seated in my car.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAY83vjOxgvE
But I didn't open it—I purposely threw my phone in the passenger seat, ignoring her text as I started my car.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA3gYS5SvxX8
I didn't touch my phone once during the entire ride to my apartment.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAJnF6OIgXfo
And it severely fucked with me.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAiamZFTDw8O
Because I did want to know what she said.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA7SjYi36XjI
Even after how fucked everything went in her office.
10Please respect copyright.PENANANCIhYcQTBx
I made myself wait until I had entered my apartment, quickly setting my keys down and unlocking my phone to read her text.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA3MiEAyF2nn
Doc: We're finishing this conversation over dinner. Be ready at 6.
10Please respect copyright.PENANARfnIxmSUIj
I rolled my eyes at her text, noticing it was barely five-thirty so I still had time to cancel.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA5gy9r5xg0J
I started typing immediately, preparing my response to cancel.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAVhkl9SXG6M
Me: can't. i don't feel well enough for dinner
Me: think i'm coming down with something.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA6wI1UDuytU
I knew the obvious lie would piss her off more than actually discussing what just happened.
10Please respect copyright.PENANARR8rQOz4mx
But I didn't care—I just locked my phone and walked into my bedroom to get unready before I could change my mind.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAS9vqvWgfNM
I took my makeup off first, washing my face before I did my skincare.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAhGtbnXOmtB
Then I got changed out of my outfit and pulled on a baggy t-shirt with only underwear on underneath as usual.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA4pHUFOoWec
I checked my phone as soon as I was done.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA3UgsgZgRqm
But there was nothing.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA0lY1uBZZb3
Not a single response from Nine.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAXa1N1wT4h3
Not even a thumbs-up on my message.
10Please respect copyright.PENANArPuBACR8e6
But I didn't care—I just went about my evening, searching through my fridge and cabinets for something to eat.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAg5Hzss0iFs
All I had was cereal and frozen waffles—the rest was a bunch of ingredients, and I really didn't feel like following a recipe tonight.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAtBXFbMXci3
So I sat at my kitchen island, scrolling through DoorDash for something to eat.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAdpR1AGQRQ5
I was between Italian food and doing breakfast for dinner.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAkZpJnAIoi0
But at that point, I should do cereal or waffles if I wanted breakfast.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAf6MXbBhfnL
IHOP did sound good though.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAqFpXEDzHNy
I suddenly glanced up when I heard three sharp knocks at my front door, making my brows furrow slightly.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAd06w63YuCx
A part of me wondered if it was Nine—but she's very literal with time.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAvDRuqOokcN
She would've been here directly at six, and now it's almost seven.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA7ZzXQG5vgR
It's probably Kai dropping by.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAhnVf8Iu8AD
I walked over to the door, standing on my tippy-toes to look through the peephole.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAEPLEQFq1ZG
Where she stood on the other side.
10Please respect copyright.PENANANsnWhlNY9p
I guess I was wrong, she's not that literal with time.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAB41nL4s5hG
That doesn't mean I'm letting her in.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAj2OybCqq07
Right?
10Please respect copyright.PENANAtLKabZYq0z
I quickly nodded a few times to myself—right, right.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAN2vNKnZ1Ht
I shouldn't let her in.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAvj6Dut1Zmm
Even if the sight of her on the other side of my door made excited knots tie in my lower stomach.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAx78GZ9Slv4
I drew in a deep breath when she knocked again, and that's when I realized I couldn't pretend to not be here.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAmCJ1heb317
She has my location.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAb4vRsPsaYk
"I don't feel good" I suddenly called out through the door.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAaWyCuZhTUY
"Open the door, River" she still had the nerve to say, making me roll my eyes as I tried to fight the urge of finding her attractive right now.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAzS6qhcuDxa
I'm not opening the door.
10Please respect copyright.PENANADEVdGZBWC5
I shouldn't.
10Please respect copyright.PENANArMpStWRlB5
But she's also holding a bag—I wonder if she brought food.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAStX3Av9kNE
No-no, I can just order something or maybe have frozen waffles since DoorDash takes so long.
10Please respect copyright.PENANARvtkTHkRLw
"River" she repeated herself, her tone firmer with me.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAQuwQyGQdve
I drew in a deep breath, tightly pursing my lips together when I unconsciously reached for the door handle.
10Please respect copyright.PENANASUp78fpJb6
It was like my thoughts were fighting my body, especially as I pulled down on the handle and opened the door for her.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAxgQglV744Z
So much for not letting her in.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA3l7RT5GqTO
"What?" I said, my tone short with her as her brown eyes met mine.
10Please respect copyright.PENANArRLuauwJGp
She walked past me into my apartment before I could process it, her sweet scent lingering around me as I closed the front door.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAySozMcEWtg
"I didn't say you could come in" I sarcastically said, watching as she walked over to my small dining room table, setting the bag down and turning to me.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAGGEQnEuwAU
"Come here" Nine calmly said, disregarding my words entirely.
10Please respect copyright.PENANABxzY0rV9AY
I clenched my jaw as I held her stare, remaining still in place for a moment as I tried to pretend the two simple words didn't affect me.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAf8bAHk9wVU
But they did.
10Please respect copyright.PENANALi4D1hn3J0
They fucking did.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAUL2UET9rcv
I hesitantly took a step forward when she raised a brow, sighing dramatically when I inevitably walked over to her.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAEPeT1j41ck
"I'm mad at you" I said simply even if I knew she could read between the fucking lines.
10Please respect copyright.PENANApdZrnNpLnS
"That's what I'm here to discuss with you, River" she murmured as I curiously opened the bag on the table.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAB4EsHmePMx
"What is this?" I asked, pulling out one of the clear containers fogged with steam.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA3lN4453BUj
"Soup" Nine said, and that's when I felt her presence verge closer to me, "You said you didn't feel well."
10Please respect copyright.PENANAqILZFlpon0
I lazily raised my brows, "I lied" I mumbled, setting the container down.
10Please respect copyright.PENANACtYYYPL45f
"I know" she calmly said, now standing behind me.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAFeFT19gBQs
I drew in a measured breath when I felt her hands grip my waist—or the warmth of her breath against my ear as she leaned in closer to me.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA1rx2X1mDd2
"Nine" I said, feeling my face burn at her sudden actions, "I'm mad at you" I reminded her.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA9mmeEl2BUm
Or maybe I was reminding myself.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAp36jTg3wMu
"I wanted the best for you" she whispered so softly, giving my waist a gentle squeeze, "It wasn't something I thought twice about, River. I wanted you to see the best doctor in the area."
10Please respect copyright.PENANAQ0aqIrlN0e
I shook my head slightly, "You apparently wanted all of them to see the best doctor too" I pointed out, briefly closing my eyes when I felt the softness of her lips against the shell of my ear.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAV6L5ctkrn5
"I can't change my past, River. And I won't fight the urge to give you best" Nine said, her voice lowered in my ear, "But I'm sorry, sweetie. I should've informed you first."
10Please respect copyright.PENANALHFT0NhMFK
I let out a deep sigh, especially when she pressed her lips just below my ear—making shivers run down my spine.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAnBlzJ1XWlW
It was the first time her lips had kissed my body.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAMItX7CY4OV
"You should've" I whispered, my voice breathless as I pressed my hands against the cold table in front of me for stability.
10Please respect copyright.PENANALrcAvhMqn7
Especially when Nine drew in a deep breath, openly smelling me.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA2kbHIFiYdK
"You smell really good, River" she whispered so softly, "Is this new?" she asked, pressing another kiss to my skin.
10Please respect copyright.PENANArSKtMMATv6
Only this one was pressed to my neck.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAo6Tm9Tj3Up
I drew in a deep breath at the fact that she noticed my newest fragrance oil.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAVvbQB8E4vp
But that doesn't matter right now.
10Please respect copyright.PENANALzG7nol5oa
Or I'm trying to tell myself it doesn't.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAwCqQtjks7h
"You should've told me, Nine" I said, disregarding her question as I tried to lean away from her.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAKB2JvC1asN
Her grip around my waist tightened in response, but not enough to prevent me from pulling away.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAnF5S6cDQUz
It was a silent test.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAcfIrz4vZML
Like I could step away if I wanted to.
10Please respect copyright.PENANANeJodzfHZI
But I didn't want to.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAVXmbvCCnR2
Fuck.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAkpYJE4rxTy
I don't even know why I'm mad—it's all in the past.
10Please respect copyright.PENANANgYLPKZ0X9
And I knew she had arrangments before me.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAea8l3v40bp
I just wish she didn't take me where they all had been.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAh9tQvwtUjb
It made me feel... like the rest.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAdRlBIxsCYT
She said this wasn't just a hookup situation, so I'm confused.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAPpBWbfqW4P
"I sincerely wanted the best for you, River" Nine suddenly said, now grazing her lips against my neck as she inhaled again, "But it won't happen again."
10Please respect copyright.PENANAAgJBkrEcgp
"It won't?" I whispered, gripping the table underneath my hands.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAYt8pRcqg4a
I didn't expect her to give in so easily.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA9rNWjCbT9o
If anything, I expected to be punished for walking out like that.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAaTBFQO76s9
Nine hummed, the sound soft in her throat, "I'll find another doctor for you" she assured me, running her hands down from my waist, "But they won't be the best accredited in Seattle."
10Please respect copyright.PENANAGs3vhTEz6w
I let out a deep sigh, feeling conflicted by her offer, "I don't know" I breathed out as her touch trailed down to my thighs, "Maybe I'll just stay" I determined, suddenly feeling like it wasn't that big of a deal.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAU6kPv7dJdE
But I couldn't tell if that was her words... her touch... if it was affecting me.
10Please respect copyright.PENANARxQe35tMH0
Then again, I hadn't told her about Kai, so it felt like we had both lied.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAInn7sDmsn6
Mine was just... a little worse maybe?
10Please respect copyright.PENANAJhUMXJ1nGn
Kai's still in my life, portrayed to Nine as only a friend.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAydfdqIJw80
"No, I'll take care of it" Nine assured me, luckily not listening to my words in the heat of this very tense moment. I really don't want to go back to that doctor, "You're not comfortable with it, and that's all that matters."
I felt a warmth burn around me at her words,
"Really?" I whispered, taking her words more personally than I should've.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAu20qwmhA7r
She prioritized me so quickly... so easily.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAKXdevHMKae
"Really" Nine said, trailing her hand under my baggy t-shirt, "I only ask that you allow us to have a real conversation before making your mind up."
10Please respect copyright.PENANAQ3C2hVKWze
I nodded a few times in a row, "Yes, of course" I murmured, my lips parting with a soft gasp when I felt the softness of her touch against my covered clit.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA5JVCu6O0Pb
"Don't ever walk out against my word again" she said, her voice firmer in my ear as she teased me through my underwear.
10Please respect copyright.PENANARsjqiDT5X3
I nodded rapidly, "Okay, I won't" I quickly whispered, determining that I probably shouldn't have walked out on her like that.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAlhMZAREFE8
I won't do it again.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAfqQQMDnaD8
"Good girl" she calmly said, her praise making my body burn as I arched into her touch.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA9893dJVBXU
My breathing grew unsteady, especially when she pressed her lips to my neck yet again.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA93jWuJNmUZ
"I want you, River."
10Please respect copyright.PENANA32XSSaG1L1
Her words were lowered between us, tracing my clit through my thin underwear.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAfkXuVnK3N2
"Take me please" I whispered breathlessly.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA8i0G7gEOrx
Her touch drew away from my core, "Very pretty manners, River" she complimented, making knots grow in my lower stomach as she impatiently pushed the bag in front of us off the table—And spilled the soup across the floor.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAUIVQ6RpXWD
Then she bent me over the cold table, reaching down to slide my underwear to the side and—A moan burned in my throat as soon as she began rubbing my clit, tracing it with her fingers.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAbvCSRRxG32
Her other hand held the back of my neck, applying more pressure to my clit as I gripped the table underneath me with a deeper moan.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAX4m4ZhZJEG
"You're very wet, River" she murmured, now quickening her pace as I whined at how sensitive I still felt.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAe2OqeP0eX6
"Nine.." I whimpered, squirming underneath her as she pressed into me deeper.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAd77rClHYR3
"Tell me what you want" she calmly instructed as my breathing grew more rapid, trying to squeeze my legs closed.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAEbeyPemILw
She used her foot to separate my legs further away from the other, exposing me even more to her touch.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAGadq5956XQ
"More.." I tried my best to say between moans, squirming underneath her as my clit ached unbearably.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAGZwa6wkwpC
She slid two fingers past my folds at my words, making a whimper burn in my throat as I gripped the table even more.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA83J5lCmA8D
I felt so warm around her—I could even feel how wet I was.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA2vj4aqkjul
"You're taking it perfectly, River" she murmured, making another moan echo from my lips—inhaling a series of breaths.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA84cEaRj6nk
Especially when I felt her fingers spread inside of me, deepening her strokes as I moaned and whimpered underneath her.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAg6SCzzTyll
I shot up toward my peak before I could process it, squeezing my eyes tighter when everything burned around me.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAC66Xi3OaTe
"Right there" I forced out when she curled into me, her grip tightening on my neck.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA8LVtcpB8Jt
I felt myself tighten around her fingers, engulfing them as she continued her deep and quick pace against my spot.
10Please respect copyright.PENANARP3QOBjjjG
Until finally—
10Please respect copyright.PENANAuk1Jh5Dwkt
"Nine, don't stop.."
10Please respect copyright.PENANAR27fRH1SBl
She went faster in response, making more whines and moans burn in my throat—trembling under her entirely.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAJlHxllX8KB
"Perfect, River."
10Please respect copyright.PENANA6VFOFnrBac
Her words echoed around me as I drew in rapid breaths, my orgasm washing over me as I released onto her fingers.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAcud2IFwxE7
I could feel the wetness between my thighs, riding out my orgasm as she continued a steady pace.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAaN1Dtxokit
And instead of pushing me directly into a second or third orgasm, she slowly slid out of me instead.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAo0Zfn0KX0G
I remained still for a long moment, a shiver rolling down my spine as I moved my legs slightly.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAqX6ZypGxsa
Nine gently let go of my neck as I pressed myself away from the table, rising back to my full height.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAjeQ3gQ2q6T
That's when I glanced over at the floor, noticing the mess caused in the heat of the moment.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAQcCK2EfhQl
"I guess we aren't having soup" I whispered, noticing the spilled containers of soup on the floor.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA3vksL7L4FR
But I couldn't care less—I'm not actually sick so soup wasn't what I wanted for dinner.
10Please respect copyright.PENANACrhS0xyqgY
Not after looking at pasta.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAaHDcklwR2V
"I'll order something else" Nine determined, walking over to the sink to wash her hands.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAY6uerZVTTB
"Pasta?" I asked her with a small smile growing on my lips.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAQroDdk2hRe
"Do you want pasta?" she asked me, her brown eyes meeting mine as she washed her hands.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAyyCOuASAb8
I nodded immediately, "Rigatoni sounds perfect right now" I said as she tore off numerous paper towels.
10Please respect copyright.PENANASBMR2ZmADF
"Grab my phone" Nine instructed, walking over to the spilled soup and leaning down to lay the paper towels over the mess.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA33lVX9sS6a
I walked over to the table where I noticed her phone sat with her keys—along with a small cardboard box.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAlekakVZXHm
"What's in that box?" I curiously asked, walking back over to her and handing her the phone.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA54ZIoax0WU
"You'll see" she casually murmured, immediately piquing my interest.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAOvxu7qSEib
"I will?" I asked with a small smile, watching as she focused her attention on her phone.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAPGlmAyBTCB
"Yes, River" she said, her lips twitching up as she glanced up from her phone to meet my stare, "Now grab me the usual cleaning products you use."
10Please respect copyright.PENANAUmoMZAoHD5
I immediately nodded, "Yeah, I'll clean this up while you order the food" I determined, walking over to the closet by the kitchen.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAkHIWaQQHaa
"No, I'll take care of this" Nine determined as I grabbed the Swiffer mop to help clean the mess up quickly, "You pick out what you want and order it."
10Please respect copyright.PENANAZ7D2jNkV3K
I nodded, pursing my lips to fight my annoying smile as I handed her the Swiffer and took her phone in exchange.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA939x2ZCgs8
As she handled cleaning up the mess and picking up the trash, I worked on putting the order together.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA06QCUdVpqq
She wanted me to order her Cacio e Pepe—something I had never fucking heard of, but I made sure to find it on the online menu and add it to the order.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA4CLkiKn2Z1
Her card details were already provided in DoorDash so all I had to do was place the order.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAOgOwYAKSsP
Then I focused on helping her with whatever was left of the mess before heading to the bathroom and cleaning up the mess she had made of me.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAwRMlxrPNul
By the time I came out, Nine was seated at my dining room table which I probably hadn't used more than a handful of times.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA4n1r5giUEW
Her sleeves were rolled up to her elbows, her heels off, and her long hair now up in a messy bun with her bangs framing her face.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAv2D6Ljqv6w
Although, a messy bun on her still managed to look as neat as ever.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAFXUQH36hw6
I pursed my lips into a small smile as I approached her, noticing the bottled water she took the initiative of getting us.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAWawFdPpFmv
"Come here" she said, glancing away from her phone as I halted by the chair beside her.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAeEeUqT22OF
"I am here" I said with a raised brow.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAZlTskLBBSS
"Here" Nine emphasized, motioning me closer.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAHAA6LK8lIT
It made my face burn up, unconsciously taking a few steps closer to her as she reached out to grab my waist.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAepiPLaG6d3
The heat around me grew when she guided me to sit down on her lap, running her arm around my waist.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAz3ImTOM6C5
She reached her other hand up, gently caressing the stray curls away from my face.
10Please respect copyright.PENANABMqR3f2Ber
"My beautiful girl" she murmured, now grazing the back of her hand against my cheek.
10Please respect copyright.PENANATnfdUN6ToX
Her words made my face grow warmer as I relaxed under her touch—leaning my side further into the front of her body with my legs hanging off her lap.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAfiosHvzr45
"How do you feel now?" she asked me, her brown eyes trailing my face, "Are you content?" she added, referring to the earlier situation.
10Please respect copyright.PENANARu3TS5D34P
I nodded immediately, "Very content" I didn't hesitate to say, glancing between her eyes.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA3ZJ5arpvZo
"Good" she whispered, running her hand down from my cheek to briefly squeeze the side of my neck, "I have something for you."
10Please respect copyright.PENANA3neTjdMI5f
A smile curled on my lips, "Like a gift?" I asked her, glancing over to the small black cardboard box.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAWIbFLuaFjU
"You could say" Nine murmured, lowering her hand from my neck to grab the small box, "Here."
10Please respect copyright.PENANATlafhoy22W
I immediately took the box from her extended hand, carefully lifting the flap and opening the lid.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAWRZlIgkpdd
The black Amex card glistened under the dim lighting, the sight of it making me almost speechless.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAHs42UCaGWs
I felt entirely caught off guard, contemplating if she meant to give this to me.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAieSnux24Aw
"You only use this card from here on out" Nine said when I remained speechlessly silent, "There's no limit on it."
10Please respect copyright.PENANAMoCHMUbIyy
I blinked a few times, suddenly wondering if this was because of the shopping trip I mentioned today.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAC5FYwFE7mU
If she thought about it deeper than me.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAe2kMpDjtSg
I unconsciously shook my head, "I can't take this" I whispered, glancing over to her.
10Please respect copyright.PENANATr3z5i1nX4
"Yes, you can" she calmly said, briefly squeezing my waist, "That's what this comes with, princess."
10Please respect copyright.PENANAwYJjeLdK5C
I blinked a few times, "But-but..." I trailed off, glancing back to the card.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA5NsSwb62SU
"You won't depend on her anymore" Nine said, her voice softened between us.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAVYzbuSpBJz
And I knew the she, that Nine was referring to.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAzWLjWK0FSO
My mother.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAkqpUrukSRn
"I'll take care of everything, River. I mean that" she softly whispered, caressing my covered waist as I tried to process this.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAwlfel7fAYB
Her gesture... her words, they made my chest grow tight.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5pXFMbROS
And before I knew it, my eyes grew heavy with annoying tears—dropping the box in my lap to hug her.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAwtSsphiMiC
I sniffled as I buried my face in her chest, wrapping my arms around her torso.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAPztMc27TGG
Nine's grip around my waist tightened, reaching up to caress her other hand against my covered back.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAsVaI8w4ACO
It was enough security to make more tears burn in my closed eyes, squeezing her closer to me.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAyuaqVWQ2q8
"My sweet girl" she whispered when the tears escaped my eyes and dampened her blouse, drawing in deep breaths, "I didn't want to make you upset."
10Please respect copyright.PENANAlF6XGNS0ZB
I sniffled, more tears weighing down my eyes, "No...no, I" I paused, the tightness in my throat making it hard to form any words, "No one's ever done this for me before."
10Please respect copyright.PENANAreM5Cik2p0
I didn't want to be crying over something so small.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA57MXBmNahg
But this meant more than she could've imagined
"Shhh.." she softly soothed me when my crying worsened, caressing her hand up my back,
"Everything is okay, River."
10Please respect copyright.PENANAIyDGEzSIdQ
I nodded a few times at her words, pulling away from her chest with teary eyes and flushed cheeks.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAKuyC1B5LmC
Nine pursed her lips as she stared down at me, reaching up to gently cup my cheek and wipe any stray tears away.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAa5YduXDRcg
"You deserve this" she said, her tone lowered between us and her stare not wavering from mine,
"Repeat it back to me."
10Please respect copyright.PENANAthMfC1ZoWg
I sniffled, staring up into her eyes, "I deserve this" I whispered, letting out a deep breath as she wiped more of my tears away.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA4vZXOVuHqi
"You do" she calmly said, her eyes trailing my face for a moment, "Did you want to show me what you got today?"
10Please respect copyright.PENANAQ8WN48dYYO
A smile slowly grew on my lips, sniffling again, "You want to see?" I asked her.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAtKIG8YGM0z
Nine's lips twitched up slightly, "Of course" she didn't hesitate to say, wiping the rest of my stray tears away.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA4s2c3vGtM6
"Okay, but it has to be like a fashion show" I told her in a soft murmur, "Like I come out and you judge the look."
10Please respect copyright.PENANAI5JPfJUcC2
Nine pursed her lips when her subtle smile grew,
"I'm very biased" she said, tucking a stray curl behind my ear and making my smile grow even more, "But I'll be your judge."
10Please respect copyright.PENANAddPoQq9vm7
I hummed happily, picking the box up from my lap,
"I'll be right back then" I said as I stood from her lap, "Stay right here."
10Please respect copyright.PENANAOKdIefDz4a
"Anything you say" Nine murmured, clasping her hands together in her lap as I ran off to my room.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA1dB7aGesxa
Excitement coursed through my body as I stripped out of the t-shirt I wore, pulling on one of the outfits I picked out today.
10Please respect copyright.PENANALbxY4YJU10
It was a dark red ruffle halter top with matching flare pants.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA0lVLLk6Pmz
The top emphasized my chest and cleavage, the red contrasting perfectly against my tanned skin.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA9ZUFvP7APL
It also tied around my waist, emphasizing the curves of my body.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAQqANHrkq5X
My nerves managed to grow as I exited my closet, unconsciously smiling to myself.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAlPPrQHWm6O
"Oh ten immediately" Nine said as soon as I walked out of my room, giving her a small twirl,
"Bonus points for presentation."
10Please respect copyright.PENANA5XYehgIUwR
I smiled as I approached her, "You're totally biased" I said, stopping in front of her.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAyowxpgsOF8
Nine reached for my waist, pulling me closer, "I tried to warn you" she said, running her hands up the sides of my waist as she openly took in the outfit.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAe3h45Ee5GP
"Ten is your final answer?" I asked, trying to ignore the heat around me that her actions caused.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAeXfuW6S1Xg
"I would like to give it more" Nine said, subtly lifting the bottom of my shirt and running her delicate fingers across my belly button piercing, "Very attractive" she murmured.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAFiZbK9Y6au
My smile grew, "Focus" I whispered, guiding her hand away from my stomach.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAv16I8CXZB4
"I'm very focused, River" she assured me, nodding a few times even if her stare continued trailing my body.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAUUPjQyxIdt
"I meant up here" I said with an amused laugh.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA16SjCbjgTB
Nine glanced up immediately, but only to stare at my exposed chest, "Up here?" she subtly asked, trailing her hands up my stomach.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA3oLa03Hk23
"My eyes" I clarified, jokingly putting a hand on my hip.
10Please respect copyright.PENANALrRZlEcyhv
Nine immediately grabbed my hand from my hip, glancing up to meet my stare as I stood over her.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAk02wfe29WB
"You're very dangerous in this outfit, River" she said, pulling me closer to her by my hand.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAettfIldwXu
"Dangerous?" I emphasized, feeling my face burn at her words.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAMLDy4KPVBQ
She nodded, guiding me down to straddle her lap.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAoMHPoyfd0s
"Nine" I whispered, smiling wider as she gripped me closer by my hips, "I need to finish the show."
10Please respect copyright.PENANAroxrU1bwDO
She only hummed, "I should finish you first" she said, pressing her lips to my neck as she grabbed my chin and tilted my head further back.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAeUAbPh6bRg
"Nine.." I whined, hating that she had managed to turn me on so easily.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA8Jlg7wKpZS
And only one outfit into this fake fashion show.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAAXoRun7F7t
We'll probably never finish this show now.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAF8ybGUAFqH
"Okay then" she said, pulling away to meet my stare, "Get off my lap before I take this off of you, River."
10Please respect copyright.PENANAAFRRaLUBjl
Her words made my face grow hotter, unconsciously remaining still on her lap.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAWVemSX41TE
Maybe I wanted her to take it off of me.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA0Xxtr5MCt0
Nine raised a brow at my obvious actions, "Very bad, River." she said, making me feel weirdly embarrassed as she reached for the string holding my top together.
10Please respect copyright.PENANATXm7f4olUI
Only to gently tug it loose.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAuXZBEDxl7f
I drew in a deep breath when the top unraveled, allowing her to slide it off of my body entirely.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAJFrInOyZTC
Her brown eyes shifted down from mine, trailing across my bare chest as she threw my top aside.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAiHCL7UVAzQ
"Beautiful girl" she calmly said, making tingles shoot down my spine.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAnFAkCTiVYv
I reached for her shoulders, growing breathless when her hands pressed against my bare stomach, roaming up to grip my breasts in her soft hands.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAw25s4H6hYu
My nails dug into her covered shoulders when her thumbs ran over my nipples, hardened purely for her, making me shift against her lap.
10Please respect copyright.PENANALNfFO8h50m
I don't understand how I'm this turned on after she had me bent over the table less than twenty minutes ago.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAVGTsFMPDxF
"Let me play with you, River" she murmured, swirling her fingers around my hardened nipples.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAhy9i6clVHr
"Play with me?" I whispered breathlessly, unsure what she meant by that.
10Please respect copyright.PENANARV9AK8zXNK
Nine glanced up from my chest to meet my stare, "Sit still and let me play with you as I please" she clarified better for me.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAgfkceyt2AV
I blinked a few times, feeling my face burn up as I unconsciously nodded, "Okay" I whispered, giving in to her entirely.
10Please respect copyright.PENANASKWUiJvvyB
"Good girl" she calmly murmured, focusing her attention back on my chest.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAXOupv1C16h
And just as she claimed, she quite literally played with me.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAMYbGokRxun
No matter how much I squirmed or how loudly I moaned, her attention remained on my chest, flicking and rubbing my nipples as she watched me struggle underneath her.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAqMRC322Crn
She liked it.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAexpqYZPCTi
Even beyond her calm demeanor, I could see the tick behind her eyes.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAdpA0B0H4qP
Or behind her actions—purposely flicking my nipples faster when she noticed how much it made me shift and squirm against her.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAuZ1Mj8UnTt
Eventually, it grew unbearable, but I wanted to be good for her—I wanted to give her what she wanted.
10Please respect copyright.PENANALPQYcKEqAh
So I remained still, feeling almost degraded by her actions or words.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAjFzAgec6S8
How she would tell me how good I'm being for her.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAyB81fWaJu3
Or that she could feel how wet I was through the pants I wore.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAfe0bye6KTI
My legs were spread wide around her, moaning and whimpering under her touch as I waited for the moment her hands would trail lower.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAFkpkcwTpBh
It took countless minutes for her to finally grow satisfied, trailing her hand down past my pants and underwear to touch my clit.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAKhtVNcPdeG
I was so fucking sensitive, that I was already ready for her—ready for my orgasm.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAsUOqlRmL9F
It was the most intense experience... within seconds Nine had me at my peak for a second time tonight.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAu1W5CafJJt
My moans were louder, my body burning hotter than ever as she held my hips in place against her fingers that played with my clit.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA0l2xwjN2c5
My breathing was rampant, leaning into her entirely as I basked in my second orgasm.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAd1k8XSYaqw
I hugged her for seconds on end, even after I came down from my peak, processing the tingles roaming through my body.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAh5YqPGpJuG
She didn't rush me to pull away or stand up, holding me just as close as she caressed her hand up and down my bare back.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAHIrkI3viMX
But eventually, I stood up on my loose legs to get off her lap, wanting to finish the fake fashion show for her.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAo5V6dfvXKi
Nine reached down to grab my top, handing it to me as I headed back into my room to change into my next outfit.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAF5OQiDc4uz
First I had to clean myself up yet again—then I got dressed in denim jeans that I specifically bought because my ass looked so good in them.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAi6YvIWwuVk
I also bought a Dior baby tee to pair with them.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAwcWXFoo4RZ
"Ten!" Nine immediately said when I walked out.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAWenx1rY9se
This time I made sure to purposely keep my distance.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAsGyo46H3IN
I don't think I could handle a third round with her right now.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA4fa2kelWZW
"Although, I can't tell if it's a full ten with how far away you are" she subtly said, making an amused laugh fall from my lips.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA1qL2OgCtGf
"This is as close as I'm getting" I determined, giving her a small twirl, "Do we like it?"
10Please respect copyright.PENANAoTFv38ClVz
Nine nodded immediately, "We do" she didn't hesitate to say.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAoYsn33koIp
A happy smile formed on my lips at her words, walking back into my room to change into my next outfit.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA1E9rJop2qv
There were only two more left, so this fashion show would be a little shorter.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAfJ6tmSrsHb
But luckily, our food got delivered while I was in the middle of putting on my last outfit.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA8ZZFXyfaCK
I barely showed it to her for more than ten seconds, given I wanted to change and eat my pasta.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAtn0EjbgmRM
It felt nice pulling my baggy t-shirt back on-walking out of my room toward the dining table.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAfiaH2iLcAl
She already had my food waiting for me with my water open and ready to drink.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA8p83ISag1t
"Thank you" I said as I sat down beside her.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA3jrUa92NSG
"You're welcome" she calmly said, taking a brief sip of her water as I picked up my fork to eat.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAJzm3GhkuIj
The rigatoni was perfect—nearly melting in my mouth as I hummed contently.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA8cbThPAolL
I couldn't help but glance over to Nine when she grabbed her fork, twirling it in the pasta against the spoon she held.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAyIaKIVxFTp
As I chewed my food, I unconsciously watched her take the first bite of hers, wondering what her pasta tasted like.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAqDGjiSZDl3
Cacio e Pepe.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAWMzGoQYBzt
I've determined I would definitely try it so I can understand her better.
10Please respect copyright.PENANALBEgFWE7I8
"Here, River" she said, sliding her bowl closer to me.
10Please respect copyright.PENANApOpxUy85qu
I shook my head, "You don't have to" I said, realizing I was probably staring at her to a point where it made her feel obligated to share.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAXHvNSy3lMj
"I know" Nine stated, sliding the bowl closer, "Take a bite."
10Please respect copyright.PENANAWwFVFDLVfZ
I glanced away from the bowl to her, causing Nine to motion her head at me, silently telling me to take a bite.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA9KbiDXFxQv
I pursed my lips, transferring my fork from the Rigatoni pasta I had to her bowl to try a bite.
10Please respect copyright.PENANA5KGsWesUhf
She instinctively held her spoon against my fork as I twirled the pasta just as she previously did.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAKWbP8TcIe2
Then I leaned over the bowl, taking the bite she helped me prepare.
10Please respect copyright.PENANANYQahYFzzj
The pasta tasted cheesy and creamy, the hint of seasoning making my mouth water for more.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAqJ4lADhXH6
"That's so good" I said, chewing a few more times.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAKe1x0xMj2z
Nine reached her fork over to my bowl, "It's my usual" she determined, poking her fork into the rigatoni noodles before taking a bite.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAAvk1dU6YxC
And I swear it could've been anyone else trying to eat my food and I would've been irritated.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAzxJ1V9Klz1
But with her, it weirdly made me smile.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAmtdnMLoC9n
She thought whatever food I had was worth trying and that makes me smile, I don't know.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAT8Lp1EpVKD
"Do you like it?" I asked as she swallowed, unconsciously watching her throat move.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAzJGcrk9e5V
"Yes" she said, glancing over to meet my stare, "It's really good, River."
10Please respect copyright.PENANAGZt7rdpNfs
I hummed at her words, smiling wider as I took another bite of my pasta.
10Please respect copyright.PENANAaaffiwpcPc
This was totally better than toaster waffles.
