This is an extract from a longer story I wrote, but I am planning on scrapping and starting from fresh. I thought instead of letting it go to waste, I would share it with you all instead and see what you think.
“I like what you’ve done with the place,” I say, taking a seat on the couch. It’s so big and soft that I almost collapse into it.
My short skirt rises halfway up around my thighs; I got to pull it down but stop. Harlen is standing smiling at me, his head crooked to one side, as if he can tell that I’m lying – but it was sweet of me to say so anyway. His green eyes glisten in the soft lighting, lingering in space between my thighs. I part my legs, giving him a glimpse of my thong.
I had thought that we might talk a bit first, to discuss what the night before had meant to both of us, and to establish our boundaries going forwards, and maybe get to know each other a little better in the process. But I can’t concentrate when he’s looking at me like that – with such intensity that my body literally begins to quiver. I’m not surprised to realise I want him just as badly as I did the night before.
