Reina - Friday

Buzzing open the gates, a tight knot forms in my stomach. Waiting for Belle has had me worried all day and I had no idea what time she’d be here. ‘Can I come over tonight?’ she asked me after servicing my pool this morning. It can only mean one thing: she doesn’t want me as her client anymore, not in any capacity. She had an apprentice with her and neither of us knew how to behave with the young man around, so we ignored each other mostly.

It’s clear that she’s busy arranging her replacement so she won’t have to come back and I don’t blame her. I’m paying her to look after the pool, and I’ve been paying her for sex. There’s something very wrong about that and I won’t deny that it’s been bugging me all along. I don’t want her to think of me as some spoilt rich woman who thinks she can get anything she wants as long as she throws enough money at it.

When I open the door, I curse the anxiety twisting in my stomach. I know it’s stupid to fall in love with an escort. It’s foolish and reckless and naïve, and still, it doesn’t stop me from wanting her all the time, from dreaming of having some sort of relationship with her. My need to be with her is so strong that I’d take anything at this point. Anything.

“Hi,” I say, letting her in. “I expected you earlier. Are you not seeing someone tonight?”

“No, I cancelled.”

“Oh.” I head to the fridge and pour two glasses of wine. She looks serious and if she wants to talk, I need one.

“No thank you,” she says when I offer her a glass. “I drove.”

I nod, suspecting she wants to get this over with quickly. “I know what you’re going to tell me.”

“Do you?” When Belle steps toward me, I suppress a moan at her closeness.

“Yeah. I won’t book you again.” I say simply, pretending this isn’t hurting me. Kissing her is all I can think of but I refrain. “No hard feelings, I promise.”

“Thank you, that’s probably for the best. I ehm… I wanted to say I’m sorry if I’ve hurt you or upset you.” Her voice is low and croaky, and a little emotional, if I’m not mistaken.

“Don’t worry about me, I’m fine.” The brave smile I put on is only half-hearted. “And I’m sorry if I got too close.” We linger in silence, ignoring the roaring charge between us. I look at her, she looks at me, and I can almost feel her internal struggle. I’m waiting for her to turn around and leave but instead, Belle reaches out to trace my cheek, her shifting expression shocking me. It’s not the look of regret or pity. I’ve seen that look before, in bed.

“What are you doing?” I whisper when she leans in, backing me up against the kitchen counter. I feel her abdomen against mine, her breasts against my chest.

“I have no idea.
