It’s just after 3 a.m. and I hear the front door open and close softly. The lock turns. My dog’s tail thumps on his bed as she passes by. She barely acknowledges him.
She slips into my bedroom through the open door. It’s dark, but the city’s lights filter in through the open blinds. I pretend I’m asleep, hoping that just maybe she’ll turn around and walk out while silently willing her to stay.
I’m on my side, facing away from the door, so she can’t see my face. It’s early summer, so the window is open and I’m sleeping naked under nothing but a sheet. A zipper is undone. Leather boots clump softly on the hardwood floor as they’re removed. There’s the swish of fabric as she pulls off her dress.
Her scent is in the air. Musky perfume, smoke from whatever bar she was in, whiskey.
Still, I pretend to sleep. I want her to go. I don’t know if I can do this again.
I am also hard. So hard. My cock is throbbing for her. My body wants what my rational mind knows it shouldn’t.
