I got a text from Nine as soon as I was seated in my car.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAYlYy4PewFd
But I didn't open it—I purposely threw my phone in the passenger seat, ignoring her text as I started my car.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAxVV31byAzq
I didn't touch my phone once during the entire ride to my apartment.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAkdcGV8bPjQ
And it severely fucked with me.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAbw7PUSBeQt
Because I did want to know what she said.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA0LaKCiWNz7
Even after how fucked everything went in her office.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAr3vELVU0Xv
I made myself wait until I had entered my apartment, quickly setting my keys down and unlocking my phone to read her text.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAXSFQUx2zAq
Doc: We're finishing this conversation over dinner. Be ready at 6.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAXd8TyP0MmY
I rolled my eyes at her text, noticing it was barely five-thirty so I still had time to cancel.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAXY1D0M5J3Q
I started typing immediately, preparing my response to cancel.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAglvHPn7yzw
Me: can't. i don't feel well enough for dinner
Me: think i'm coming down with something.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAqxGm0MumNF
I knew the obvious lie would piss her off more than actually discussing what just happened.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAxYFOQrcfHI
But I didn't care—I just locked my phone and walked into my bedroom to get unready before I could change my mind.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAjHX3u5pAyw
I took my makeup off first, washing my face before I did my skincare.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAJPxIjhSlXH
Then I got changed out of my outfit and pulled on a baggy t-shirt with only underwear on underneath as usual.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAmgFp3ncPTq
I checked my phone as soon as I was done.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA1C93FOByUV
But there was nothing.
12Please respect copyright.PENANACI7iBzhdeE
Not a single response from Nine.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAOqdxr7ZXT4
Not even a thumbs-up on my message.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAQxUCmPxwyb
But I didn't care—I just went about my evening, searching through my fridge and cabinets for something to eat.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAInHtToIr6n
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAhga3Lkjh4r
So I sat at my kitchen island, scrolling through DoorDash for something to eat.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAgEtnT2KIer
I was between Italian food and doing breakfast for dinner.
12Please respect copyright.PENANABIP73gldwD
But at that point, I should do cereal or waffles if I wanted breakfast.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAOIR6Jzg0Ev
IHOP did sound good though.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAU5XLd9uvBT
I suddenly glanced up when I heard three sharp knocks at my front door, making my brows furrow slightly.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAtouV5rFPQK
A part of me wondered if it was Nine—but she's very literal with time.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAxj6KPfwl50
She would've been here directly at six, and now it's almost seven.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAocPFikkbXj
It's probably Kai dropping by.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAVkZsgmdW4y
I walked over to the door, standing on my tippy-toes to look through the peephole.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA2iRTngUYiW
Where she stood on the other side.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAXDI2GMu1Q0
I guess I was wrong, she's not that literal with time.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAAXGCCAw5Sk
That doesn't mean I'm letting her in.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAXu2FpLo3c3
Right?
12Please respect copyright.PENANAGJtLKWeVdQ
I quickly nodded a few times to myself—right, right.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA0RzSA8bhD3
I shouldn't let her in.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA5S3Qw8xumO
Even if the sight of her on the other side of my door made excited knots tie in my lower stomach.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAHzAk24UlUh
I drew in a deep breath when she knocked again, and that's when I realized I couldn't pretend to not be here.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAWqeWZXxnnR
She has my location.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAANe6Zagk01
"I don't feel good" I suddenly called out through the door.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAlUsPkZK66D
"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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAgjOghp7Jep
I'm not opening the door.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAwmkSJKIbHq
I shouldn't.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAjS5m0hs5AS
But she's also holding a bag—I wonder if she brought food.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAwPiIbnjNsf
No-no, I can just order something or maybe have frozen waffles since DoorDash takes so long.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA9rNBfX7Z2H
"River" she repeated herself, her tone firmer with me.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAbiqAPu4iwS
I drew in a deep breath, tightly pursing my lips together when I unconsciously reached for the door handle.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAsC1DGoIgWs
It was like my thoughts were fighting my body, especially as I pulled down on the handle and opened the door for her.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5Bjpl0pZt
So much for not letting her in.
12Please respect copyright.PENANApp2FL7bVal
"What?" I said, my tone short with her as her brown eyes met mine.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAsxp0ujeuYY
She walked past me into my apartment before I could process it, her sweet scent lingering around me as I closed the front door.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAOafiXu2qIN
"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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANARBIK5k2K2T
"Come here" Nine calmly said, disregarding my words entirely.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAJqDBPPK7PX
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAd7g4HYZrCk
But they did.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAq6z9UF28Nw
They fucking did.
12Please respect copyright.PENANASRBe2UTx2d
I hesitantly took a step forward when she raised a brow, sighing dramatically when I inevitably walked over to her.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAA4mLC0had8
"I'm mad at you" I said simply even if I knew she could read between the fucking lines.
12Please respect copyright.PENANALd502vgn0A
"That's what I'm here to discuss with you, River" she murmured as I curiously opened the bag on the table.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAKa030wmxHI
"What is this?" I asked, pulling out one of the clear containers fogged with steam.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAaWB53vJF5t
"Soup" Nine said, and that's when I felt her presence verge closer to me, "You said you didn't feel well."
12Please respect copyright.PENANAjzbVmTBkFO
I lazily raised my brows, "I lied" I mumbled, setting the container down.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAbSnBOdEvOS
"I know" she calmly said, now standing behind me.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAlSKpYFhMBN
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAln8nBuvpyk
"Nine" I said, feeling my face burn at her sudden actions, "I'm mad at you" I reminded her.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAqhaI6aV3IN
Or maybe I was reminding myself.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAPbLWm0Amjj
"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."
12Please respect copyright.PENANAz2HjB4Avw8
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAnnpXnQzU5k
"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."
12Please respect copyright.PENANAizIjfuRpc5
I let out a deep sigh, especially when she pressed her lips just below my ear—making shivers run down my spine.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAos2OVFVffC
It was the first time her lips had kissed my body.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAylv8kZXeih
"You should've" I whispered, my voice breathless as I pressed my hands against the cold table in front of me for stability.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAaRaq1G56Lf
Especially when Nine drew in a deep breath, openly smelling me.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAlvPK16gDOc
"You smell really good, River" she whispered so softly, "Is this new?" she asked, pressing another kiss to my skin.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA8fvkvgZReE
Only this one was pressed to my neck.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAilZ35igtSU
I drew in a deep breath at the fact that she noticed my newest fragrance oil.
12Please respect copyright.PENANALGJCRfWWnx
But that doesn't matter right now.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAIcIqj6DHhe
Or I'm trying to tell myself it doesn't.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAp2csOWZg03
"You should've told me, Nine" I said, disregarding her question as I tried to lean away from her.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAsHuexN7y0D
Her grip around my waist tightened in response, but not enough to prevent me from pulling away.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAQDfKw4SG6B
It was a silent test.
12Please respect copyright.PENANALTo4BIi5EZ
Like I could step away if I wanted to.
12Please respect copyright.PENANApCRSRGvuD6
But I didn't want to.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAWb8eKkvOQ9
Fuck.
12Please respect copyright.PENANACzephNbr2k
I don't even know why I'm mad—it's all in the past.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAHTRoup6bBK
And I knew she had arrangments before me.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA5vGA85KB9r
I just wish she didn't take me where they all had been.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA2LZR2VknrF
It made me feel... like the rest.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA6CD4NVAzOq
She said this wasn't just a hookup situation, so I'm confused.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAM1j2u7Kaww
"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."
12Please respect copyright.PENANAQOtZ1CFldJ
"It won't?" I whispered, gripping the table underneath my hands.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAKvM1ew4fee
I didn't expect her to give in so easily.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAz2044R5kB5
If anything, I expected to be punished for walking out like that.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAfz0Nx5aJkz
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."
12Please respect copyright.PENANAEcx76SFyYU
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAfoBGoJLtsX
But I couldn't tell if that was her words... her touch... if it was affecting me.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAZY2fIbEOVE
Then again, I hadn't told her about Kai, so it felt like we had both lied.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAOg8hziNQTP
Mine was just... a little worse maybe?
12Please respect copyright.PENANASvSDVac8KN
Kai's still in my life, portrayed to Nine as only a friend.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA1e9biXLxqs
"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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA50tRaNUkWN
She prioritized me so quickly... so easily.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAeqBxnIfmpA
"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."
12Please respect copyright.PENANAAIkRGV64DZ
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA8qkCgHe63M
"Don't ever walk out against my word again" she said, her voice firmer in my ear as she teased me through my underwear.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA3nY2hEskJf
I nodded rapidly, "Okay, I won't" I quickly whispered, determining that I probably shouldn't have walked out on her like that.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAfJv3gHOPGi
I won't do it again.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA7jbW1UPMxP
"Good girl" she calmly said, her praise making my body burn as I arched into her touch.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAFWp6Dboij5
My breathing grew unsteady, especially when she pressed her lips to my neck yet again.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAabdGBm0ZDT
"I want you, River."
12Please respect copyright.PENANA1qGoH03z4d
Her words were lowered between us, tracing my clit through my thin underwear.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA6NJqhmfwcm
"Take me please" I whispered breathlessly.
12Please respect copyright.PENANApQSo149DZm
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAy2VCgy5gVr
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA5dhkEFR55e
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA2HmAGCm7y3
"You're very wet, River" she murmured, now quickening her pace as I whined at how sensitive I still felt.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAwf44Qv5mxM
"Nine.." I whimpered, squirming underneath her as she pressed into me deeper.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA3KYvNqTql2
"Tell me what you want" she calmly instructed as my breathing grew more rapid, trying to squeeze my legs closed.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAvlu0ouYQHA
She used her foot to separate my legs further away from the other, exposing me even more to her touch.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAqUyYmEnFqQ
"More.." I tried my best to say between moans, squirming underneath her as my clit ached unbearably.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAi0YouhosPR
She slid two fingers past my folds at my words, making a whimper burn in my throat as I gripped the table even more.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAm8AJvdQDim
I felt so warm around her—I could even feel how wet I was.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA60bZGVW6pu
"You're taking it perfectly, River" she murmured, making another moan echo from my lips—inhaling a series of breaths.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAQDrNp0uUdS
Especially when I felt her fingers spread inside of me, deepening her strokes as I moaned and whimpered underneath her.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAIt0dG4Y1W0
I shot up toward my peak before I could process it, squeezing my eyes tighter when everything burned around me.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAeccAHhAQ25
"Right there" I forced out when she curled into me, her grip tightening on my neck.
12Please respect copyright.PENANANl4IR0p48v
I felt myself tighten around her fingers, engulfing them as she continued her deep and quick pace against my spot.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAbz2obed2Em
Until finally—
12Please respect copyright.PENANAaX3OSMuzGA
"Nine, don't stop.."
12Please respect copyright.PENANAitiUNrTzhm
She went faster in response, making more whines and moans burn in my throat—trembling under her entirely.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA7NRSAszJ7O
"Perfect, River."
12Please respect copyright.PENANAGp8brDsoFz
Her words echoed around me as I drew in rapid breaths, my orgasm washing over me as I released onto her fingers.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAF2aLprB1nM
I could feel the wetness between my thighs, riding out my orgasm as she continued a steady pace.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAz4JUMDLype
And instead of pushing me directly into a second or third orgasm, she slowly slid out of me instead.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAs9AJTZK0RC
I remained still for a long moment, a shiver rolling down my spine as I moved my legs slightly.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA2vWVKl2nO1
Nine gently let go of my neck as I pressed myself away from the table, rising back to my full height.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAYwL0qCwkCn
That's when I glanced over at the floor, noticing the mess caused in the heat of the moment.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAXiPgSjUrLo
"I guess we aren't having soup" I whispered, noticing the spilled containers of soup on the floor.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAs8VmuBWh37
But I couldn't care less—I'm not actually sick so soup wasn't what I wanted for dinner.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAAQwMpmVZRt
Not after looking at pasta.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAvO6vWHtQs7
"I'll order something else" Nine determined, walking over to the sink to wash her hands.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAhavzjUBHZE
"Pasta?" I asked her with a small smile growing on my lips.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAcUADNbCgDz
"Do you want pasta?" she asked me, her brown eyes meeting mine as she washed her hands.
12Please respect copyright.PENANACARuxX9mJX
I nodded immediately, "Rigatoni sounds perfect right now" I said as she tore off numerous paper towels.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAqHTcWBqexb
"Grab my phone" Nine instructed, walking over to the spilled soup and leaning down to lay the paper towels over the mess.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAa9qcsB8RaN
I walked over to the table where I noticed her phone sat with her keys—along with a small cardboard box.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAxeFBWidAfi
"What's in that box?" I curiously asked, walking back over to her and handing her the phone.
12Please respect copyright.PENANADdztbOd1Rh
"You'll see" she casually murmured, immediately piquing my interest.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAREQ01pXtQt
"I will?" I asked with a small smile, watching as she focused her attention on her phone.
12Please respect copyright.PENANADPIFeGlRDi
"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."
12Please respect copyright.PENANAmXv1HVR6nO
I immediately nodded, "Yeah, I'll clean this up while you order the food" I determined, walking over to the closet by the kitchen.
12Please respect copyright.PENANARt78zR5TiY
"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."
12Please respect copyright.PENANA50ipmfbJvc
I nodded, pursing my lips to fight my annoying smile as I handed her the Swiffer and took her phone in exchange.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAOGTaeynRmo
As she handled cleaning up the mess and picking up the trash, I worked on putting the order together.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAfWZC8fSaEj
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAsw0JvxbXZ9
Her card details were already provided in DoorDash so all I had to do was place the order.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAvDQcUJ3ee2
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANALLJuEcRe0o
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAlfhV2A26L0
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAJVWow0YJiR
Although, a messy bun on her still managed to look as neat as ever.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAlV2vFSmGel
I pursed my lips into a small smile as I approached her, noticing the bottled water she took the initiative of getting us.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA1QL0Tkqa0e
"Come here" she said, glancing away from her phone as I halted by the chair beside her.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAMxa8r2w3FJ
"I am here" I said with a raised brow.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAxzBGxjL8a1
"Here" Nine emphasized, motioning me closer.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAp3cgdRcRP7
It made my face burn up, unconsciously taking a few steps closer to her as she reached out to grab my waist.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAicpbcwPwaH
The heat around me grew when she guided me to sit down on her lap, running her arm around my waist.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAasvtss0xQY
She reached her other hand up, gently caressing the stray curls away from my face.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA0OLEl2UYWE
"My beautiful girl" she murmured, now grazing the back of her hand against my cheek.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAsf34WgojLT
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA2SJ8Pizm6u
"How do you feel now?" she asked me, her brown eyes trailing my face, "Are you content?" she added, referring to the earlier situation.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAGJvX4Jnh8c
I nodded immediately, "Very content" I didn't hesitate to say, glancing between her eyes.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAPNTfSJnLqj
"Good" she whispered, running her hand down from my cheek to briefly squeeze the side of my neck, "I have something for you."
12Please respect copyright.PENANAvQ70CQUOJ2
A smile curled on my lips, "Like a gift?" I asked her, glancing over to the small black cardboard box.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAa95NMF2RkN
"You could say" Nine murmured, lowering her hand from my neck to grab the small box, "Here."
12Please respect copyright.PENANAzvfDcvE1NS
I immediately took the box from her extended hand, carefully lifting the flap and opening the lid.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAUUJcXUyOfW
The black Amex card glistened under the dim lighting, the sight of it making me almost speechless.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA3SjsozhKvM
I felt entirely caught off guard, contemplating if she meant to give this to me.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAvJAqAjVnjc
"You only use this card from here on out" Nine said when I remained speechlessly silent, "There's no limit on it."
12Please respect copyright.PENANAscBWLrCqGO
I blinked a few times, suddenly wondering if this was because of the shopping trip I mentioned today.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAwFXSilVXCu
If she thought about it deeper than me.
12Please respect copyright.PENANABwy6FyMmav
I unconsciously shook my head, "I can't take this" I whispered, glancing over to her.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAg4YHcXSCRN
"Yes, you can" she calmly said, briefly squeezing my waist, "That's what this comes with, princess."
12Please respect copyright.PENANAd0M3MGHMyj
I blinked a few times, "But-but..." I trailed off, glancing back to the card.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAq20pKFJCcB
"You won't depend on her anymore" Nine said, her voice softened between us.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAjEZB0801o6
And I knew the she, that Nine was referring to.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAaEy0JgViAG
My mother.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAeVGw0JHMVI
"I'll take care of everything, River. I mean that" she softly whispered, caressing my covered waist as I tried to process this.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA29TteqsBLw
Her gesture... her words, they made my chest grow tight.
12Please respect copyright.PENANANQVArXvbNf
And before I knew it, my eyes grew heavy with annoying tears—dropping the box in my lap to hug her.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAo9SLOQGKk3
I sniffled as I buried my face in her chest, wrapping my arms around her torso.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAl35Y2A2QFp
Nine's grip around my waist tightened, reaching up to caress her other hand against my covered back.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAzlq6guZXBf
It was enough security to make more tears burn in my closed eyes, squeezing her closer to me.
12Please respect copyright.PENANASJprSutQD5
"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."
12Please respect copyright.PENANA3RG8Gb2Hbm
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."
12Please respect copyright.PENANAndtireSJxO
I didn't want to be crying over something so small.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAGb6vqJTRtq
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."
12Please respect copyright.PENANAj891Nthv4s
I nodded a few times at her words, pulling away from her chest with teary eyes and flushed cheeks.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAkck3alWEBw
Nine pursed her lips as she stared down at me, reaching up to gently cup my cheek and wipe any stray tears away.
12Please respect copyright.PENANABbNVhmx7BB
"You deserve this" she said, her tone lowered between us and her stare not wavering from mine,
"Repeat it back to me."
12Please respect copyright.PENANA8JEk4CK8GA
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA3Xk24xpDTg
"You do" she calmly said, her eyes trailing my face for a moment, "Did you want to show me what you got today?"
12Please respect copyright.PENANAirvrcMw9eE
A smile slowly grew on my lips, sniffling again, "You want to see?" I asked her.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAh26I907oqR
Nine's lips twitched up slightly, "Of course" she didn't hesitate to say, wiping the rest of my stray tears away.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAfRR4f0F4JG
"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."
12Please respect copyright.PENANAGvNqGAzBZ9
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."
12Please respect copyright.PENANAHuEkpfuhzV
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."
12Please respect copyright.PENANA18miUuUbfd
"Anything you say" Nine murmured, clasping her hands together in her lap as I ran off to my room.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA58KrfUa0rW
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAL15RfCDOOU
It was a dark red ruffle halter top with matching flare pants.
12Please respect copyright.PENANARurIaHfuea
The top emphasized my chest and cleavage, the red contrasting perfectly against my tanned skin.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAxO3XN464b7
It also tied around my waist, emphasizing the curves of my body.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAnV7UeMkDv0
My nerves managed to grow as I exited my closet, unconsciously smiling to myself.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAfUrqoRfuST
"Oh ten immediately" Nine said as soon as I walked out of my room, giving her a small twirl,
"Bonus points for presentation."
12Please respect copyright.PENANA5gO3ryKhcc
I smiled as I approached her, "You're totally biased" I said, stopping in front of her.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAXAiFO09Gn9
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAna0rVF8szR
"Ten is your final answer?" I asked, trying to ignore the heat around me that her actions caused.
12Please respect copyright.PENANABbz1zYX6Qa
"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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAcH2jH8pHJX
My smile grew, "Focus" I whispered, guiding her hand away from my stomach.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAOozJFozEtc
"I'm very focused, River" she assured me, nodding a few times even if her stare continued trailing my body.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAmFN7zUn4b8
"I meant up here" I said with an amused laugh.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAd1AtWU9ZEk
Nine glanced up immediately, but only to stare at my exposed chest, "Up here?" she subtly asked, trailing her hands up my stomach.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAVHcEg57XBc
"My eyes" I clarified, jokingly putting a hand on my hip.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAq91eOHSoRs
Nine immediately grabbed my hand from my hip, glancing up to meet my stare as I stood over her.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAAm5fK6Kzsb
"You're very dangerous in this outfit, River" she said, pulling me closer to her by my hand.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA8qBuTeEgqp
"Dangerous?" I emphasized, feeling my face burn at her words.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAGGPZe0mnXt
She nodded, guiding me down to straddle her lap.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAxtNnYebGlt
"Nine" I whispered, smiling wider as she gripped me closer by my hips, "I need to finish the show."
12Please respect copyright.PENANAIjf5Xi3KIf
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAGx9xuKe9iO
"Nine.." I whined, hating that she had managed to turn me on so easily.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAQy6bUcqu0x
And only one outfit into this fake fashion show.
12Please respect copyright.PENANASGYoKFoklF
We'll probably never finish this show now.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAAlAPgtLaoj
"Okay then" she said, pulling away to meet my stare, "Get off my lap before I take this off of you, River."
12Please respect copyright.PENANAYBEuVGOzmd
Her words made my face grow hotter, unconsciously remaining still on her lap.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAh9F17YOR0n
Maybe I wanted her to take it off of me.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA3Vm85toX6V
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANApOOoCdC5FW
Only to gently tug it loose.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAeA6HVJF9Fd
I drew in a deep breath when the top unraveled, allowing her to slide it off of my body entirely.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA0syF2I8omQ
Her brown eyes shifted down from mine, trailing across my bare chest as she threw my top aside.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA3CgQXXTK6Z
"Beautiful girl" she calmly said, making tingles shoot down my spine.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA2PrGZbqT7I
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAz68YwGMqd6
My nails dug into her covered shoulders when her thumbs ran over my nipples, hardened purely for her, making me shift against her lap.
12Please respect copyright.PENANABMiucnPLBJ
I don't understand how I'm this turned on after she had me bent over the table less than twenty minutes ago.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAxyegEi6YqY
"Let me play with you, River" she murmured, swirling her fingers around my hardened nipples.
12Please respect copyright.PENANATJSKwGguAe
"Play with me?" I whispered breathlessly, unsure what she meant by that.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6zuJ8xgAr
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANABkG2CM2oh4
I blinked a few times, feeling my face burn up as I unconsciously nodded, "Okay" I whispered, giving in to her entirely.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAlB0meFLQnq
"Good girl" she calmly murmured, focusing her attention back on my chest.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAhEIsdrcDqu
And just as she claimed, she quite literally played with me.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA8SmcT6y6RW
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAwG0pVlNRoO
She liked it.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAvIjZbeVJRa
Even beyond her calm demeanor, I could see the tick behind her eyes.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAeNp2n1wI1Y
Or behind her actions—purposely flicking my nipples faster when she noticed how much it made me shift and squirm against her.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAIrUK2cG325
Eventually, it grew unbearable, but I wanted to be good for her—I wanted to give her what she wanted.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAfZLbreQgMf
So I remained still, feeling almost degraded by her actions or words.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAyal9jFsKMe
How she would tell me how good I'm being for her.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAgLS5GRNlv0
Or that she could feel how wet I was through the pants I wore.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAox8YP8fdtp
My legs were spread wide around her, moaning and whimpering under her touch as I waited for the moment her hands would trail lower.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7QsbOhfGS
It took countless minutes for her to finally grow satisfied, trailing her hand down past my pants and underwear to touch my clit.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA2iNtaST9GV
I was so fucking sensitive, that I was already ready for her—ready for my orgasm.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAoCKu11aIXQ
It was the most intense experience... within seconds Nine had me at my peak for a second time tonight.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAw2bCMZrPCr
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAokdGP7M7QI
My breathing was rampant, leaning into her entirely as I basked in my second orgasm.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAmBXFeiZzM8
I hugged her for seconds on end, even after I came down from my peak, processing the tingles roaming through my body.
12Please respect copyright.PENANABYqIsRIoWh
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAVsdubanySQ
But eventually, I stood up on my loose legs to get off her lap, wanting to finish the fake fashion show for her.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAkSd2Jaz9kt
Nine reached down to grab my top, handing it to me as I headed back into my room to change into my next outfit.
12Please respect copyright.PENANABQRlJ7kDPv
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAcmJRsMW2oN
I also bought a Dior baby tee to pair with them.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAc7fbOtAK7u
"Ten!" Nine immediately said when I walked out.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAPZa6JMA9Yu
This time I made sure to purposely keep my distance.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAEhheGGlwL1
I don't think I could handle a third round with her right now.
12Please respect copyright.PENANApFZypqKZyt
"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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANArZmrm8roZU
"This is as close as I'm getting" I determined, giving her a small twirl, "Do we like it?"
12Please respect copyright.PENANAN5Dgdp6hLN
Nine nodded immediately, "We do" she didn't hesitate to say.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAOeZfFvhyZD
A happy smile formed on my lips at her words, walking back into my room to change into my next outfit.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAbJdcRcoavr
There were only two more left, so this fashion show would be a little shorter.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAISIX8UlQxz
But luckily, our food got delivered while I was in the middle of putting on my last outfit.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA3IkNDlzRoS
I barely showed it to her for more than ten seconds, given I wanted to change and eat my pasta.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA1FR3s6aYBi
It felt nice pulling my baggy t-shirt back on-walking out of my room toward the dining table.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAcA9eVntDk3
She already had my food waiting for me with my water open and ready to drink.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAYK2REcA15a
"Thank you" I said as I sat down beside her.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAiSFuJ3DBpA
"You're welcome" she calmly said, taking a brief sip of her water as I picked up my fork to eat.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAeFLdOcN3d7
The rigatoni was perfect—nearly melting in my mouth as I hummed contently.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAyuxUC53LDb
I couldn't help but glance over to Nine when she grabbed her fork, twirling it in the pasta against the spoon she held.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAtZ17RLCjGW
As I chewed my food, I unconsciously watched her take the first bite of hers, wondering what her pasta tasted like.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA1hOO6tZ8Xy
Cacio e Pepe.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAIfOu3q0t7P
I've determined I would definitely try it so I can understand her better.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAZjdGaoDxRK
"Here, River" she said, sliding her bowl closer to me.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA5p0gAY1qDC
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAMHSdAMcV5F
"I know" Nine stated, sliding the bowl closer, "Take a bite."
12Please respect copyright.PENANA399EWDIGyY
I glanced away from the bowl to her, causing Nine to motion her head at me, silently telling me to take a bite.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAjrNP4ZM0pe
I pursed my lips, transferring my fork from the Rigatoni pasta I had to her bowl to try a bite.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAuVC5M4bLUx
She instinctively held her spoon against my fork as I twirled the pasta just as she previously did.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAvJfK6t9zlo
Then I leaned over the bowl, taking the bite she helped me prepare.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA2l4sM2a6qu
The pasta tasted cheesy and creamy, the hint of seasoning making my mouth water for more.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAztdB9odt8N
"That's so good" I said, chewing a few more times.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAAUTHLH7qUG
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.
12Please respect copyright.PENANACVRUqn43vM
And I swear it could've been anyone else trying to eat my food and I would've been irritated.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA8JUV9OSDhf
But with her, it weirdly made me smile.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAKXCd1s4BVa
She thought whatever food I had was worth trying and that makes me smile, I don't know.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAKhOVRy30F9
"Do you like it?" I asked as she swallowed, unconsciously watching her throat move.
12Please respect copyright.PENANAibksnt9Pav
"Yes" she said, glancing over to meet my stare, "It's really good, River."
12Please respect copyright.PENANAC2y9W3TneY
I hummed at her words, smiling wider as I took another bite of my pasta.
12Please respect copyright.PENANA0V2LFCYETw
This was totally better than toaster waffles.
