I felt fucking amazing.
I don’t think I’d gone a year without sex since I lost my virginity at fifteen. In fact, I knew I hadn’t.
I sat there, enjoying the euphoria, and the feel of Simone cuddled into my body.
When she began to move, I protested, “Not yet.”
She nuzzled into my neck and I was gone.
Fuck!
I put my arms around her and held her closer.
“That was better than I remembered,” Simone murmured against my skin before I felt her lips brush it.
“It really was,” I agreed.
“My legs are beginning to cramp up,” Simone said, standing and separating herself from me.
I felt the loss immediately, and somehow, a slight draft.
Not wanting her to have to deal with my mess alone in the dark, I quickly took off my boots, jeans and boxers. I shoved grasped for her hand and shoved the boxers in them.
“Here, I’d help, but I can’t see shit.”
“Thanks,” she said softly.
We both righted ourselves and, once I was done, I fumbled around on the ground for my phone.
I pressed the button and saw it was at fifteen percent.
“Do you need the flashlight?” I asked, worried that my phone wasn’t going to last as long as we needed it to.
“No, I’m good, just about dressed.”
I heard her yawn and knew after the long shift and fantastic sex, she was probably as exhausted as I was.
“Here…”
I turned on the flashlight long enough to lay my shirt on the cement and lay down on it. I knew it wasn’t going to give us any comfort, but would at least keep my head off of the unforgiving ground.
Once I was on my back, I patted my chest and said, “Come here.”
I could make out a smile on her face as she lowered herself to the ground.
“Use me as your bed, your pillow … whatever you need,” I told her.
Once she was settled with her head on my chest and at least half of her body resting on mine, I turned off the flashlight and wrapped my arms around her.
“You good?” I asked, even though I knew she couldn’t be all that comfortable laying on the floor, even with me as a cushion.
“Mmmm, yeah, I’m good,” Simone replied sleepily.
I placed one hand on my stomach and the other caressed her bare shoulder.
Luckily, it was warm enough in here to be borderline comfortable. I knew once the sun came up, that wouldn’t last long. Hopefully, the power outage would be fixed soon. Either that, or Big Mike would come in uncharacteristically early.
Otherwise, things were bound to start looking down.
As it was, I had to take a leak and was trying to think of anything else but that fact.
I closed my eyes and listened to Simone’s breathing even out as she dozed off, and started to fall asleep myself.
“What the fuck?”
I startled awake to the sound of the door banging against the wall.
Simone jumped up as if she’d been electrocuted and ran to the door.
“Don’t let it close,” she said frantically, sighing loudly and spreading her arms wide like she was hugging the door.
