LONGER
Two weeks had gone by and as comfortable as the hotel was he was ready to get his own place, he shouldn’t be spending so much on hotel accommodations.
Trent with Cindy’s help started looking at some places and they already had three of them in mind, all three within walking distance to the new office.
Today he and Cindy if he could accompany him to look at the prospects. He liked Cindy’s point of view and he already knew she had great taste.
They had been hanging with each other almost every day `as cousins´, even went out on the weekend but nothing had happened, nothing as emotional as that first meeting. They were both a little hesitant, just lightly flirting with each other but neither seemed willing to risk it. They were cousins and they were navigating uncharted waters. But both their hormones were at the boiling point. The question in each of their minds was who was gonna cave first.
Maybe the other was already over the other, maybe they should just be friends, be cousins, be family, and not something else, whatever that might be.
“I’ll pick you up at your place in fifteen?”
“Fifteen? So you are telling me you are already in here watching from behind the mirror Mr.. peeps?”
He burst out laughing and she could hear him on her phone and from inside the apartment behind the mirror.
“You know me so well.”
“Pervert!”, she said playfully as she ended the call. Let me get a quick shower and we can get out of here she yelled as she walked to the bathroom.
“Ok, I’ll just wait here and go through your drawers.”
“Alright, just don’t wear them, they’ll stretch and you’ll have to get me new ones.”
“Nah, I just like to sniff them”, he yelled as he settled on the couch and started going through some emails on his phone.
“Very funny, you can help yourself with anything on the fridge. Get me a beer will ya? I’ll be out in a sec.”
“Sure hooonnneeeeyyy!” He playfully yelled in an annoyed husband kinda way. “Would you like a foot rub as well?”
She didn’t answer, `she must be in the shower already´ he thought. A beer sounded great, he had been supervising the remodeling project site all week making sure it all went smooth as butter, he had earned it.
As he closed the fridge door with two beers in his hand he noticed an invitation on the fridge door held by a ballerina magnet.
The New York City Ballet Gala
2020 SPRING GALA
Saturday, May 30th
Formal attire
Trent heard Cindy exit the bathroom and walk around her room.
“Honey? Are you going out tomorrow night? Again in an annoyed husband tone.”
Cindy peeked her head out of her room and saw Trent reading the invitation.
“Oh, that! Nah, I wasn’t planning on going.”
“Are you sure, it’s free champagne and canapés. Sounds fun.”
“Are you kidding? Those things are super boring, filled with stuck up, sorry `glamorous´ people.” She didn’t want to admit the real reason was that she might see `him´. She had been actively avoiding any chance of being close to the asshole ever again.
“I just thought it would be fun for you, for your business, you know, some P.R.”
“Nah!, I’m ok, business is good enough for now. Ok, I’m ready to go.”
“Here you go my lady,” Trent said as he handed the beer.
She downed it in a single gulp.
“Ready when you are my lord. Bottoms up.”
“Don`t get images into my head, he said as he gulped his drink also.”
“Let`s go.”
As they walked down to the first prospect, they walked by a bar. Cindy’s favorite Friday night hang out.
“I love the margaritas from this place. Let’s go in, we have some time.”
Trent wasn’t used to drinking this early but maybe it was another NY thing he had to get used to sooner or later.
“I think I’ll have a beer” he replied.
“Try the margarita first please?” she said as Cindy looked at him and fluttered her eyes.
“Ok… fine cousin, you are learning too quickly how to push my buttons. Not fair using those beautiful eyes to get your way all the time.”
“I’m not big or strong like you, I have to play my strengths.”
The bar was a cross between a bar and a coffee shop, modern furniture with wood fixings and plants everywhere. A place you could sit and hang out for hours. His kind of place.
As they walked in, Cindy was immediately waved at and called by a group of her friends.
“Oh my god, that group over there are my best friends, Im sorry… I promise it wasn’t intentional or planned in any way.”
“What are you talking about, let go meet them!”
`That´s right Cindy, you are not on a date and he is just your cousin… with no friends in the city by the way´.
“Ok, just for a little while, we still have to be there in 20 minutes. And I apologize in advance, they are a little `eccentric´ but I love them like family.
“If they are your family, they are family to me too.”
Gaby was a brunette with green eyes, she had a tight skirt down to her knees and a pink dress shirt, and with her glasses and long hair tied in a ponytail, she looked like a lawyer or executive of some sort. Next was Francesca, she was dressed more casually, wearing overalls with paint stains and a Queen t-shirt, the band, not the monarch. Her brown hair cut short to her chin, she was the prettiest of the group sitting at the table, with a small pretty nose and big brown eyes. Then came Alma, who was clearly of Latin American descent, Trent would later Learn she arrived in New York as a foreign exchange student and never left. Her Mexican heritage gave her a slightly darker tone than the rest and fuller lips, she was more exotic than pretty, but her curves and ethnicity made her popular in the gringo department. Last to introduce himself was Tobias. Toby was another of the girls, clearly the most fashionista, using bright colors, he was African American, a little shorter than him but slimmer, he had long nails and sparkling lipstick.
“Hi Cindy, haven’t seen you in a while, I bet you’ve been busy, Toby said as he turned to Trent. Are you going to introduce us to this big fella?”
“I’m sorry guy’s, this is Toby the eccentric, this is Gaby… the blood-sucking lawyer, that over there is Francesca the pretty… pretty broke artist and Alma is the gringo soul sucker, so better stay away from those lips.
“Cindy’ that was so rude! Toby said. Accurate but rude!”
They all laughed.
“Guys this is… she hesitated, he’s my…. mmm.”
Hi, I’m Trent, he said salvaging the situation. We are leasing an office space together. Great nails by the way Toby.
“Tobias smiled, I like your “whatever” already.”
“Really? You finally took the plunge?” Gaby said in a surprised manner.
“Yes, he arrived like a gift from the heavens, his company will be setting up in most of the space, and I’m going to be getting more than enough for me.”
“I bet you are” quickly remarked Toby with a smirk.
“Remember Cindy, I told you you are welcome to use our conference rooms and service areas whenever you need it,” Trent added. “Mi casa… su casa”.
“Here”, Tobias stood up and gave Cindy his seat as he gestured to a waiter and asked for two more chairs.
“We can’t stay long guys, we have to be leaving in fifteen minutes, we have an appointment. I just wanted to introduce Trent to the best Margaritas in the neighborhood if he is going to be living close by.”
“Where are you going in such a hurry,” Francesca asked.
“I’m looking for a place to live and I want Cindy’s opinion on a couple of places”
“Oh! I had the impression you guy’s where on a date.” Francesca added.
“No!, this is just business, casual, casual business.” `Fuck! Here I go again saying stupid shit like that.´ The whole group sensed the awkwardness in Cindy’s response. They smiled. She knew them well, they’ll let her have it after. Gaby quickly changed the subject.
“So are you going to the gala tomorrow?”
“Not this year.”
“Well, you didn’t go last year either.”
“Yeah, I told her earlier she should go, but she is adamant,” Trent added.
“Tell you what, I’ll go if you’ll be my plus one.”
“Yeah, I don’t think ballet is my cup of tea.”
“You didn’t seem to mind a week ago, what were your exact words…?”
“Fine, you got me there, what time should I pick you up?”
The rest of the group was listening intently, witnessing her friend flirting and asking a guy out on a date for the first time. They all had a round of Margaritas, and Cindy and Trent touched and flirted with each other, like a couple in love. `Oh! They’ll give her hell for it alright!´
———
The first two places were very nice but Cindy wasn’t thrilled, they were both spacious but they lacked personality, they were modern and plain, Cindy felt Trent needed something a little more rugged, a guy place and she wasn’t feeling it with the first two.
Trent left the best for last, as they walked to the final prospect.
As they walked they were discussing the last two options. She was sharing her thoughts about the styles and how she didn’t see him living on any of them. They were nice but too sterile for him.
“I’m so glad you came along Cindy, as he impulsively wrapped an arm around her shoulders.”
She didn’t complain and walked like that for half a block until her brain betrayed her yet again.
“You mentioned your ex-girlfriend back at the bar.”
“Yeah.”
He let his arm drop.
´God dammit Cindy!! Why, why now! Why can’t you just enjoy the moment?
She scolded herself. “I’m sorry Trent, I shouldn’t have known better than to bring up such a painful subject, I know we just reconnected a week ago.”
“It´s ok Cindy, I’m glad you asked, I’m just so used to keeping my feelings to myself, but honestly I feel more connected to you in a week than I did with Jean in almost two years. My relationship with Jean had been a secret to most. We worked together and I was her boss so first I thought she didn’t want to announce our relationship because she was worried about what others would think. Her banging her boss for a raise or tho climbing up the company ladder. So I kept the secret for two years. It was fun at first, like something `forbidden´, but after that, I started getting worried the relationship was stuck. The more I pressed, the more she distanced herself. You have to understand I was in love with this girl so I did something desperate, something stupid.”
“Noooooo…” she let it escape before her hands lost the race to her mouth.
“Yes… I proposed.”
“And that’s when your relationship ended right?”
“Wrong, she accepted, but she still wanted to keep it a secret until she was ready to tell her parents and friends. Two months later she was still not ready. And a few days ago I caught her with Mark, the company’s CFO. He is one of the members of the board of the majority of shareholders and he is my friend from college.”
“So I confronted her. I’ve already told you how she was confused and a mess. How I made her choose between him and me, I would have forgiven her and built a family with her. How stupid am I? That week I managed to inquire about them my friend was clueless about my relationship with her, he was also trying to keep the relationship a secret as requested by her, but apparently after a night out and after a few drinks he spilled the soup to the other members. That’s something I never did.”
“Oh Trent, I’m sorry, I didn’t know you were engaged, I didn’t know it was as serious as that. Her loss. Thank you for confiding in me, I know it must have been difficult telling me this, just a few days after it happened. We just reconnected a few days ago but I can already tell, you are as kind and loyal as anyone I’ve ever met. We’ll have to find you the right girl but first, we have to find you the right place to bring your conquests.”
“You mean like Gaby or Francesca? Maybe Alma?”
“Cindy gave a playful but firm elbow right in his ribs.”
“Go ahead, you can call them right now if you want to.”
He kept teasing her, “But I don’t have their numbers.”
She was having none of it. “Fine here’s my phone, I think I called Frasncesca last week, you’ll find her in my speed dial.”
He was going through with the tease and was about to dial her number. He suddenly stopped in his tracks as he saw their first call. It had a video call icon next to it.
She kept walking a couple more steps until she noticed he had stopped. She turned to see his face lit up by the phone screen as it was dark already.
“Did you video call me the first time we spoke, while I was in the shower?”
The blood suddenly drained from her face and felt a cold chill crawl up her spine.
“I… I… yes. I could barely see anything, the door, the steam… your silhouette”, words were escaping her. She was busted. “You shouldn’t answer your phone like that you know.” She said regaining her composure.
“Well common sense should have stated to hang up immediately don’t you think.”
“I know, I’m sorry.” She said sincerely.
“Oh lady, if I had that stapler right now!”
Cindy realized Trent wasn’t mad, he was just teasing her.
“That’s right Mr peeps! You are the one to talk!.”
“Haha fine, let’s call it even then. Even though I feel cheated, your peep show was days earlier and longer than mine.”
“Longer? Not from where I was standing” Cindy said as she winked at him.
THE APARTMENT
The apartment was large and spacious, it had three bedrooms, a nice kitchen, a living room, a fireplace, and a balcony overseeing the Hudson. It had a brick wall on one side and a concrete wall on the other. The pace was so open that they could hear the echo when they walked in.
“Oh my god Trent, this is perfect for you. This could be the master bedroom, this one the guest room and you even have a room to have a gym and work those muscles of yours. This kitchen is big enough to entertain guests or fix a great dinner for one of your dates whoever it might be. I know what each of my friends like.” ´Ok, Cindy, here you go again.´
“Thank’s for the tip, but I think I already have a girl in mind. Trent said as he grabbed Cindy by the arm and spun her around putting his arm around her small waist looking into her eyes with a longing he had never felt for another soul.”
“Don’t tease me, Trent, please I know I act like I don’t care but remember I’ve had a crush on you since I was eleven and never got over it. It’s painful to think of you with another woman so if you don’t feel the same please stop teasing me like that, I don’t think I can take it anymore.”
She lowered her head to rest it on his chest as her eyes filled with tears and her hands clenched into fists pulling on the fabric of his shirt.
Trent grabbed her chin and pulled it upward again to meet her drowning eyes.
“I do feel like that also. I think I’m falling for you so hard that I’m going to need a lot of stapling.”
Before she could laugh he invaded the privacy of her mouth, kissing her, slowly at first and then furiously as they both needed to release a megaton of build-up sexual tension.
Trent easily picked her up and settled her on the counter as he started venturing down her neck. She was thrown on her back as she caressed her invader’s ample back. Justa as he started lifting her skirt they heard a noise at the door, thankfully the kitchen was out of sight so they had a couple of seconds to compose themselves as the building manager came in. They didn’t do a good enough job.
“So I take it you guys ´like´ the place. It’s great for a young couple and big enough to start a family if that is on your life plans.”
Neither of them corrected him, he was trying to hide his boner and she was trying to slow her breathing down to normal levels, she felt like she just ran a 100-meter sprint at the Olympics. Her hair was a mess, her skirt was askew. A few seconds later and the manager would have been the peep in their own show.
“Tess, the place is exactly what I’m looking for., I’ll take it. I can send you the paperwork over the weekend and we could be signing the lease on Monday.” Said Trent as he stood behind Cindy and hug her at the waist.
´Damn it Trent, you are not helping my hormones´ she thought.
“Great, I’ll set up the contract and make sure everything is ready to sign on Monday.”
As they left the building Trent walked Cindy back to her apartment. He put his arm around her shoulders again but this time Cindy put hers around his waist as they walked, each pondering what did happen, what almost happened, and what they wanted to happen. They arrived at the entrance to her building. She turned before they walk into the entrance.
“Trent, I think before we go back in we should talk about what happened, we are cousins and this is messing me up. I really really want us to go up and finish what we started on the counter but I don’t know if we are ready for that. I also really really want to know what you think about all this.”
“You are right, I just ended a two-year relationship not two weeks ago. This has taken me like a storm of emotions and I don’t know if bringing all this emotional turmoil is fair to you. You deserve better Cindy. As attracted as I am to you, I think it would be better to take it slow and get to know each other better and be really sure about what we want before getting involved physically.”
Trent saw the evident sadness in her look, or was it regret? Did she regret her feelings?
´I really want to fuck your brains out tonight´. She thought to herself but it was a good idea to get to know each other better before venturing into the forbidden.
“So are you ok with us dating for a while before… you know, melting the countertop?”
“Absolutely! I don’t want to screw this up, I don’t want to do anything to hurt you. I’ll just have to do with that private ballet performance from last Friday.”
“Hang on a sec, that reminds me of something”, she pulled him to the side of the building, out of view into an alley, Cindy put her hands under her dress and pulled the side of her panties down over her legs, stepping off them and putting them in his hand as she whispered, “I wore the same pair of underwear just in case. Now they are yours.”
He couldn’t resist, he pulled her to him and kissed her. His kiss was gentle but powerful, charged with lust. She felt his erection growing in his pants, she pressed her hips even further into him pressing his erection on her naked pelvis. ´Oh, my god! This felt so good.´
It took her every ounce of willpower to pull away from the kiss and without saying anything except “See you tomorrow night” she walked into the building waving at him as he watched her stumble away, knowing she was naked under her dress, he pocketed the panties and walked back to his hotel in a daze.
Back in his hotel room before he started packing his stuff there was one thing he needed to do, he set his phone exactly in the same place as their call took place, he turn on the shower and waited for the steam, then he set the timer in his phone to ten seconds as he berated his dick to attention, it didn’t take long since he had her panties in his hand. After pressing the shutter icon on the screen he set the panties down on the sink and got in the shower. Three, two, one… the shutter sounded.
After the jerk-off session and shower, he sent her a text with the picture attached to it. “Thinking of you, sweet dreams Cin.” First dick-pic he’d ever sent.
“This is now one of my most cherished memories, thank you, Peeps ;). Good nite.”
THE TUX & THE ORCHID
Trent bought a new tux, he went for a more modern style in all black. Black shirt and black bow tie. He found a bow that if you looked closely you could see it was actually a Batman logo. He loved it! As he approached her building entrance, he was about to ring her apartment but she was already waiting at the lobby.
“Wow Cindy, you look… woooow.”
She loved his reaction, exactly the kind of reaction she was going for.
She was wearing a beige dress that faded into dark blue, as the turned for his viewing pleasure he saw the dress open up in a V shape at the front and traveling all the way over her shoulders and converging down to her lower back.
“You look beautiful Cin.”
“Thank you, I’m wearing this, especially for you.”
“Shall we?” Trent turned as he directed his arm to a limo parked at the entrance.
“Really? That’s unexpected.”
“Well, this is a Gala, isn’t it? I can’t have the most beautiful woman arrive in a cab.”
As Cindy got in the limo she thought of all the times she had gone to events and arrived in a limo but nobody had ever surprised her on a date like this. When he got in, he was received with her lips on his mouth.
“Close the door, we are gonna be late.” She whispered in his ear as she nibbled at the lobe for a little bit between words.
After the limo started moving Cindy rolled up the window to their cabin to give them more privacy.
“Did you bring what I asked?”
“Yes”, reluctantly handing out the white panties to Cindy. “Don’t worry, I washed them. ”
“You didn’t have to.”
“Oh yes, I did! They wouldn’t have been very comfortable, all crusty and stained.” He said as he started pouring some Champagne into a glass.
“Don’t be sad”. Cindy said to him as she started slowly sliding them up her legs, pushing the hem of her dress with them, almost revealing her most intimate secrets. “You can have them back at the end of the night.” She said as she lifted her butt off the seat to slide them into place. “Watch it there stud you are drooling.”
The champagne started overflowing the flute, spilling in his hand almost staining his pants.
“Shit!” He said as he reached for a towel. He gave her the glass as she giggled, then reached for a second glass and poured some more.
Then he reached the driver’s window and knocked. As the window rolled down the chauffeur handed Trent a bouquet of flowers.
“They are beautiful Trent. Thank you. They are going to be a little hard to carry around the event… but here”. Cindy handed the bouquet to Trent again. She pulled the biggest and most beautiful orchid of the set and slid the flower into her hair on top of her ponytail as decoration.
“I don’t know how this relationship is gonna play out but tonight I’m your girl.”
THE GAL AT THE GALA
Trent was the first to step out of the limo into a red carpet with photographers on either side. He was a little hesitant, he wasn’t used to the attention, but having Cindy clinging to his arm was the reassurance he needed to bear with the situation.
They posed for some pictures for social magazines and newspapers. The party was in a big salon beautifully decorated. Cindy introduced Trent to some of her acquaintances.
After a few more glasses of champagne, they were a little tipsy. A clear sign that they were having fun. Cindy would come and go in different groups mingling. Trent had settled with a group of tech entrepreneurs that were about his age. She couldn’t stay away from him for too long though, she would come back with food or more champagne. She had to recognize it wasn’t that the party wasn’t half bad after all.
“I didn’t figure you’d be a social butterfly.” Said Trent.
“I’m not, I’m just happy to see long-time friends and acquaintances.”
“See, I told you it would be fun! Go ahead and enjoy your friends, I’m all right over here. Met some Wall Street guys and we are talking business so don’t worry about me, I’ll find you later.”
After the opening ceremony and a few words from the president of the NYCB, Cindy was chatting with some of the dancers, catching up. They seemed very interested in her school and life ´after de Company´. As she was ready to go look for Trent she felt a hand grab her arm from behind.
“Missing me already,” Cindy said as she turned around. She froze as she saw the man of her nightmares.
John Price was a sixty-year-old man, sharp and cunning, used to always getting his way, he was married to one of the NYCB’s oldest members. Mrs. Angela Price. He was a short man that seemed even shorter whenever he arrived next to his beautiful tall third wife.
“Yes, it’s been too long since our last conversation two years ago, and oh my, you look even more beautiful, you’ve filled quite well.” He said as he openly leered at her breasts. “What do you say if we give that conversation another try,” he said as he squeezed her arm even further.
She pulled her arm from his grip where a pink mark was left. Some of the dancers noticed but said nothing. She didn’t blame them. They knew who he was, they were all terrified of him. He had a reputation for ruining many young dancers’ careers.
“Don’t make a scene now, I know about your little school and I can bring hell down on it, and you’ll lose everything and besides, nobody would believe a bitter dancer who couldn’t hack it in the big leagues, couldn´t cope with the pressure of being the prima and ran… So it would be in your best interest to cooperate now. Let’s go somewhere more private.”
She complied.
“Good girl, let’s go.”
Trent saw Cindy walking behind an old man away from the party. She had a serious look, too far from her semblance of earlier.
Mr. Price got to the edge of the salon and opened one of the side doors that went into a room that had sculptures and art pieces making sure she was following, but before she walked out of the salon she stopped.
“You are right,” she said. “I don’t want to make a scene in front of everyone but I’m not going anywhere again with you ever again.”
Price got noticeably pissed. Just when he was about to forcefully grab her, Trent swished past Cindy and intercepted her attacker pinning him to the wall with enough force to flip his tupee revealing the bold spot on top of his head.
“Who do you think you are? Do you know who am I?”
“I know you are a monster that preys on young girls.”
“I know who you are. I asked about you when I saw you with her. You are just establishing your company in New York and I have the power to cripple your business here and back in San Francisco too. I have powerful friends everywhere. I can break your business.” Price hissed at him. “Now put me down before I file charges against you, you fucking goon.”
Trent lifted him ten inches off the ground and slammed him against the wall thumping his head against it, not hard enough to hurt him but strong enough to make his point.
“You might know my company but you don’t know me, and right now it’s just you and me. All you need to know right now is I can break YOU, I’ve broken far tougher men than you”.
“Let me go or I will scream.”
As soon as he was about to scream, Trent’s left forearm lodged into his neck pinning him with his body weight as he let go of his right arm and prepared to punch him square in the face.
“Ppplllleeeeaassshh donnnn hurrrttt meeee.”
“Trent stoooop!” Cindy yelled.
“No! He hurt you, I want to hurt him back”. Trent was so out of himself that he was ignoring everything he was ever taught about temperance and discipline.
“Let him go, please, he doesn’t hold any power over me anymore. I realized he is just a sad little man trying to overcompensate for his small dick”.
Trent’s pulse seemed to slow down, his body weight shifted and his fits relaxed. He set him down, fixed Price’s bow tie giving him a couple of slaps on the cheek. There you go little fella, all set.
Price walked away with a trail of piss down his pant leg.
“Hey Price, I don’t have any evidence of what you did to me so I won’t press charges for now, but if I even hear a rumor you look at another girl in a way that makes her uncomfortable, I will go down to the police station and file charges, I will be the first in line as a witness and I will be there when we break you”.
Price just nodded and walked away.
Cindy turned to Trent and said. “Now you can take me home”.
FIRST TIME
The ride home on the limo was a blur, they kissed and caressed passionately. standing up for herself was the most powerful aphrodisiac she had ever felt. Combined with how her date had been there to protect her. Not that she needed it, but it gave her a sense of safety, of reciprocity. He was a man she could count on being there for her in the good and the bad.
Right now she wanted to be baaad.
As soon as they got in the limo, Cindy pounced on Trent ripping off his Batman bow.
“Nice bow by the way.”
“Thanks.”
Not much else was said.
She pushed off his jacket and opened half the buttons on his shirt.
“Shit! This shirt is impossible to unbutton.”
“Rip them off, I can care less.”
Cindy didn’t hesitate and her hands managed to rip every single one of them as the buttons flew all over the limo. She stopped to catch her breath and admire his toned and muscular martial arts body. She leaped into his lap.
All Trent had to do was pull down on her dress to reveal her beautiful breasts. White round orbs with small pink nipples moving up and down as her chest heaved in anticipation. Se didn’t have to wait for another second as Trent’s mouth stuffed his face in them, licking and sucking furiously.
As he was busy suffocating in her breast, Cindy undid his pants and took matters into her of hands, stroking his erection with one hand and guiding his mouth from one breast to the other in a ritualistic rhythm as a sexy song inundated the cabin. She was lost in ecstasy, she let go of his cock and started dry-humping him rubbing her white panty-covered clit along his shaft. He was grunting and gripping the limo seats as he held to dear life while Cindy rammed her hips into his.
The limo stopped so he did too. No words were spoken, they dressed enough to get off the car.
Trent tipped the driver and followed Cindy up to her apartment. They couldn’t keep their hands off each other the whole ride up to the sixteenth floor.
As soon as they walked into the apartment Cindy turned and lept up to him, arms around his neck, legs around his waist. Trent kicked the door shut behind him and carried her to her room where they both fell on the bed.
Cindy quickly moved on top of him, she was never this fierce when it came to sex, she didn’t know why, she only knew she wanted him like she never wanted anyone else. All those years of actively avoiding relationships, intimacy… men, had accumulated and were releasing her desire like a geyser. Trent had never been manhandled like this before during sex. She made him feel like the most desired man on the planet and he was enjoying every second of it.
Cindy got off him for a moment as she struggled to work the zipper of her dress while Trent undressed.
“The damn thing is not cooperating!” Cindy complained. She was struggling to slide the zipper down due mostly to her desperation.
“Here, let me try it.”
Trent pulled on the zipper so hard that the handle broke. “Fuck! Fuck!!… Fuck it!!!!” Trent grabbed the dress by either side and ripped it apart. And let the dress slide down. Revealing her entire body except for her white panties.
He turned Cindy around, she pressed her ass to his dick rubbing up and down giving him a delicious butt job while he clung and fumbled with her breasts. She turned and they kissed again. Trent moved his hand down into her panties and started to slide his finger into her crease feeling her heat and wetness.
Their rhythm started to pick up more speed and they traveled quickly to the point of no return. She turned to meet his eyes.
“Take me, Trent, take me now!”
Trent obliged, he pushed her down on the bed again and climbed on top of her, pinning her to the bed. As he pressed the tip of his pole between her legs she reached down and pulled aside her panties.
“Please start gently, it’s been a while for me.”
Trent kiss her in the mouth sweetly and played with her lips as he started sliding in and backing out slowly. She was so wet that it didn’t take long for him to be into her in a couple of strokes.
She started moaning and getting lost in a river of sensations traveling around her whole body. Trent sped up more as he felt his arousal building.
“I’m getting close Cin.”
“Me too, don’t stop!”
Cindy reached her climax first. “Fuck me coooouuusssiiiinnnnn aaaagggghhhh!!” She yelled as her body began the convulsions of pleasure squeezing Trent’s dick.
Hearting her yell like that was the final stroke that sent Trent into overdrive. With a final thrust, his manhood exploded in bursts that shot into Cindy’s body as he held her still by the shoulders. “Aaaarrrgghhhh.”
Trent collapsed on top of Cindy as they both struggled to find air to fill their lungs.
“Oh my god Cin, that was…”
“I know, amazing…”
Trent slid down to her side and hugged her tightly.
They lay naked on the bed, each pondering the situation. Cindy’s head was resting on his chest. A tear ran down her cheek. Trent heard her sniffle.
“What’s wrong Cin? Are you ok? Did I hurt you?”
“No, you were great, you were perfect, and that’s the problem.”
Trent stiffened knowing full well what was coming.
I’m scared Trent, I feel like this is too good to be true, my heart is going places I never thought possible and it’s scaring the hell out of me. I don’t want to hurt you, I don’t want to be hurt, not by you.”
“It’s confusing to me too but I think we are past the point of no return, sometimes the heart just has a mind of its own, sometimes you don’t get to decide who to love, you just do, and as we’ve said before we are both consenting adults.”
“Do you think it’s love, Cindy said nervously.”
“I don’t know if it is, but I think it can be. I know I care for you deeply, I want to be with you and share my happiness and my sorrows with you.”
“And your dick too!”
“Yes, and only with you. I know this is moving too quickly for both of us, but I don’t care. I feel I’ve found something special with you and I don’t want to forfeit it because of social norms. I don’t want to live a life of regret. Not anymore”
Hearing Trent speak speak like that, calmed her nerves and reassured her that what she was feeling was natural and she shouldn’t feel any shame.
“I will try to stop overthinking my feelings for you, I promise.”
With that she kissed him again, this time slower and lighter as she moved on top of him and straddled his waist. They made love one more time, this time they moved slower, more intimate, exploring each other’s feelings as they savored each other until they were both satisfied once again before falling asleep in each other’s arms.
I’ll get you for this
The morning found them embraced in each other’s arms, with Cindy’s leg embracing Trent´s torso. As the light shone through the bedroom window he started to wake up, in his half-asleep state he thought he heard a growl.
“Cindy, did you get a dog? Trent mumbled as he stretched half of his body.”
“Cindy dropped her hand from his torso to his crotch.”
“No, but I think I’m petting a stud.”
“Very funny… I’m serious, I thought I heard something.”
“I think it was my tummy, I’m kind of hungry after all of last night’s gymnastics.”
“Well then let me fix you something,” he said as he got up. Trent was more of a morning person than Cindy.
“Wait… wait five more minutes please.”
“You stay in bed a little bit longer, I’ll let you know when breakfast is ready.”
Twenty minutes later Trent woke Cindy up with a kiss. “Wake up Cinderella”.
“Cinderella is the maid with the glass shoe, you mean sleeping beauty.”
“Sorry Anastasia.”
“Aurora! Never mind Prince Charming. I’m up… I’m up.”
Trent had cooked some omelets, brewed coffee, OJ, and some fruit he found in the fridge. He had set up breakfast outside on the terrace.
“This is nice, I never eat out here, I’ve forgotten how beautiful it is.”
“It’s a shame, we are going to have to make this a Sunday thing then.”
“So what do you want to do today my prince?”
“You tell me, I’m new here remember?”
“Well there is some much stuff to see here, I still don’t know your interests, I have a feeling you are not much of an art guy, so no art galleries or expositions, at least not today. You’ll have plenty of time to check out indoor places like museums and buildings when winter comes. Let’s do outdoor activities today.”
“What do You have in mind?”
“Let’s go swimming!”
“That sounds like fun, but We’ll have to go shopping before that, I left my trunks back in SF.”
“Great! We can stop by Macy’s on the way, I need a new one myself. I’ll even let you pick it.”
“That will be easy, the sheerest skimpiest one.
Are you sure you want me to be seen like that in public?”
“You haven’t told me where are we going swimming.”
“It’s a surprise, but you are right, sheer will be better.”
On the way to the swimming secret place, they stopped at Macy’s over at Herald Square. Trent picked up a couple of trunks one in plain blue and another with a palm tree print. She took a little longer to pick up a bathing suit.
She modeled a few to Trent and she laughed when he said they were ´ok´.
Trent started to get impatient and started browsing for something he liked. He settled on a turquoise two-piece bikini that rode high on her hips and a sliding triangle top.
“Try this one.”
She put it on and when she walked out to show Trent his choice she was blushing.
I really like it Trent but I don’t know, I’ve never worn something so revealing. The bottom is the right size but the top…
She uncrossed her arms to reveal that the bikini top barely converted her breast, it was one size too small as the sides of her breasts were spilling out of the fabric.
“I really like it that way,” Trent said with bulging eyes.
“Really? You would like to see me wear this in public?”
“Maybe not in public if you are shy about it, but I don’t know yet where we are going so…”
“Fine, I’ll take it, but just for you. Ever since I stopped dancing professionally, my breasts have been growing non-stop, I don’t like them very much.”
“I love them.”
Yeah! I can tell, I’m a little sore in the chest area (jiggles). If I look on the bright side I can finally fill a bikini now.
“I’m sorry about the roughness, I got carried away, I can get this for you if you are only going to wear it for me, after all, I chose it.”
“That’s exactly why I’m buying it, it’s my gift to you and part of the surprise. And don’t worry about my breasts, I loved every second of it.”
“Next stop the deli on the corner, we need to get some food and drinks, then we’ll be on our way.”
“Are we driving there?”
“No it’s a couple of blocks south, now I’ve talked too much… so be patient.”
A few minutes later they arrived at a brand-new building. Trent figured out they must have an indoor pool. When they approached the reception area, Cindy announced herself and was given a card.
“The penthouse house elevator is over here” The receptionist pointed them to an elevator across a lounge only accessible by the key card.
They took the elevator to the top. The elevator opened directly to a penthouse with marble floors and high ceilings. It had a full kitchen with wood cabinets and granite countertops. Everything shined and smelled brand new. The dining room had a huge chandelier and a luxurious dining set with a table that seemed to be carved out of a single piece of very expensive wood and chairs with high backrests. The living room had huge designer couches and a stone fireplace. Next to it and on the farther side of the penthouse, huge glass panes slid by motor and hid on the wall to give access to the terrace. The terrace had a deck with eight pool lounge chairs and a swimming pool next to the edge of the building with plexiglass walls overlooking the city.
“This place is amazing Cin! What a beautiful view of the city. When? How? What Whooo?”
“You can thank Toby for this. He is the most successful broker of one of the most successful real Estate developers in town right now. He has exclusivity in the presale. As soon as the building is finished in three months then is open season as he forfeits the exclusivity. So I cashed in a favor. A big one.”
“I wonder what you did to help him out if he is letting you use this place.”
“You have no idea, it’s a story for another time.”
“Let’s get changed. I got you a surprise for ´me´ also.”
She pulled a Speedo swim briefs´ from a bag that looked more like underwear than the traditional trunks.
“You want me to wear that?”
“Hey, it’s only fair I get some eye candy too.”
“Yeah but did you have to get them in white? You don’t wanna leave anything for the imagination do you?”
Cindy chuckled.
“Well, my imagination is getting me all wet right now and I haven’t even stepped in the pool yet.”
Cindy grabbed her bag and walked to the main room. Trent followed Cindy into the Master bedroom. “Where do you think you are going Mr?”
“Well to change into this ´mid-life crisis´ outfit.”
“No, you can use the guest’s room over there.”
“Come on Cindy, I’ve already seen you naked remember?”
“Yes but this is for dramatic effect, this lady needs her privacy to do girl stuff.”
She closed the door behind her, slightly bumping his nose.
“Sorry!” a muffled jiggle followed the apology.
“Trent checked the doorknob.”
Damn, locked.
Cindy yelled from the other side. “Be patient and no peeping through the keyhole!”
Trent looked to see if there was a keyhole.
“Ha! Gotcha.” Came another muffled reply.
Trent went to the guest room to change, he was annoyed until he realized where he was and who he was there with, then he smiled and happily stepped into the ball huggers.
Cindy was taking her sweet time. He was laying on one of the lounge chairs already sipping her second beer. The weather was great, the skies were unusually clear so he was enjoying the sun on his skin. He needed this, a much-needed relaxing day. Cindy was outdoing herself. He was about to drift off to sleep when Cindy walked out into the deck.
She was wearing the suit Trent picked for her. Her hair was tied in a high ponytail, as she had noticed he liked it that way. This time it was unusually high so it flowed down like a fountain from the top of her head. She had another orchid from the night before tucked into her ear and she was wearing a little makeup.
“Wow Cindy, you look like a model, like a swimsuit model.”
“Glad you like it and you are right, I’m going to be your model for today. The only rule is that the pictures will only be taken with my phone. Are those terms acceptable to the photographer?”
“No complains here but how am I going to flaunt my work then?”
“You won’t but you’ll be well compensated for it.”
“I like the sound of that. What are we waiting for?.”
“The model only needs one more thing but she needs the help of the photographer.”
“I need to spread some oil over my body, would you mind?.”
Trent’s eyes lit up like a kid on Christmas.
Cindy laid on the lounge chair next to him facing down and handed him the oil bottle. Would you do the honors?”
Trent got up un did the strap of her bikini top and started rubbing the oil all over her back. The oil was a tropical tanning oil with a citrus odor a nice change over the coconut oil that’s so popular.
“You are starting to smell like dessert!”
“Well, that’s the idea.”
After rubbing her back and shoulders Trent ventured down to her ass cheeks, and he applied more oil. “As much as my ass loves the attention, you need to get my legs too.”
Trent had lingered a little too long knee-ding her firm and tight buttocks. His cock already springing to attention as Cindy watched from her laying position.
“I think we are done here, now turn around.”
Cindy obliged. Turning around, she was topless.
Trent oiled his hands some more, already salivating in anticipation. He poured even more oil on each of her breasts and rubbed away. His hands were sliding vigorously as her tits slipped around, the nipples were erect getting squeezed between his fingers only to escape their grip, taunting him, teasing.
Then his right hand worked its way down to her abdomen where her muscles tightened as a reaction to the sensation of his touch. Her breathing was picking up, he took that as a sign to proceed even further. His hand slipped under her bikini bottoms and found her engorged lips, with little effort he slipped his finger in and started exploring her inner cavity.
She reached over and started massaging his boner over the fabric. She cupped the balls but she needed more. She pulled the speedo down to his knees releasing his cock. With her right hand, she grabbed and squeezed her breast and massaged it as she locked eyes with him, then took her oily hand and started rubbing it along his shaft, then she gripped it and proceeded to pump it.
Her hips were now in automatic pilot moving to the rhythm of Trent’s finger while Trent was fucking her closed fist.
“Oh, Cin… I’m getting close to cumming!”
Go ahead cous…
His body betrayed him as he lost control of it. He started to shoot his sperm, most of it landing on her chest.
Trent pulled his finger out as he collapsed on his lounge chair again.
“I’m sorry Cin, it was too much for me, I couldn’t hold it. Sorry, you didn’t get to finish.”
“It’s ok, that was worth it, I loved every second of it. You make me feel so sexy, so thank you too. Besides we just got here so you have time to make it up to me.”
“By the way Mr Peeps, would you hand me my phone, I want you to take a picture of this moment before I clean myself.”
Cindy put on her bikini top again after taking a few pictures of the party on her chest.
The next hour was spent as a swimsuit photo session. They browsed Instagram looking for professional models and tried to replicate the poses, the lighting, and the setting. They didn’t have a pro camera but they had fun taking the pictures and some of them weren’t even half bad.
Cindy tried the different suits she got as they changed locations, the living room, and the dining room table. Bending over the oven. Some of them were topless, others fully naked. One of Trent’s favorite pictures was her on the pool topless with her breasts pressed against the plexiglass, her flesh being pushed to the sides contrasting the small frame of her back with her oily hair flowing straight down to the middle of her back.
It had been a while since they were this happy. They ate their Deli sandwiches as they talked about life, their expectations, family, and work, no subject was off limits, even their exes. Trent was surprised Cindy had only been in two relationships that lasted more than six months. She explained how her life had been so different before, how she had little time and moved so much. It was difficult making long-lasting connections outside the dance company.
Both boyfriends had been dancers like her and both left for other companies in other countries so that never worked out. Then after Price, she stopped trying together, her fear keeping away every guy that tried, of course until him, until that ´video call´.
“That’s right Miss Peeps!”
“Very funny Trent, she said as she gave him a little slap on the shoulder.”
“So what about you?” She asked, not sure if she wanted to know more about the former fiancée or any other exes. Even though she felt a special connection with Trent, she didn’t know if they were ´there´ emotionally.
“Jean is a broken girl, I can see that now. It might be the reason I felt attracted to her in the first place. I might have wanted to fix her you know? At least it’s how I’m rationalizing my stupid behavior. But you have shown me so much more.”
Cindy blushed.
“Anyway, the sex was great”. Cindy felt a pang of jealousy and the blush was gone as soon as it had arrived but she knew Trent was just being honest and she appreciated that.
“You want to see her?” He picked up his phone before getting a response. “Meet Jean.”
Cindy was taken aback, she was stunning, blonde almost as tall as Trent, with long golden hair, perfect teeth, and a beautiful smile.
“She is gorgeous.”
“Yeah, not nearly as much as you.”
In his eyes, she saw that he meant it. “Thank you” Cindy replied feeling more at ease as she leaned in for a kiss.
“So how did you leave things with her?”
“She asked me for more time but after I caught her with the other guy I ended it. Then moved here and that is that.”
“How did she take it?”
“She kept telling me she didn’t cheat, that we never talk about exclusivity and if that’s what I wanted she would stop. I asked her to do it right then and there, I believe I would have accepted her again if she had done it, but she didn’t. She made her choice. I wished her a happy life, packed up, and left. I spent a week in a hotel and didn’t hear from her. It was pretty clear to me where her heart was. But things worked out for the best. I’m here with you.”
Trent got up from the lounge chair and picked her up in his arms, they walked to the edge of the pool and jumped in as Cindy squealed in laughter. The pool would have been chilly at that height and this early in the summer if it were not for the heating system.
As they emerged from the water Cindy’s triangle tops had slipped to the sides. Trent dived into her chest and licked her tits like there was no tomorrow. He was all recharged again but this time he wanted to focus on her. He pulled on the strings on either side of her hips and let the bikini drift to the bottom of the pool. Then lifted her out of the water and set her on the edge of the pool. He spread her legs and started licking her clit with reckless abandon. She started moaning like a porn star. Not even she knew she was such a loud lover.
As she was nearing her orgasm she backed away from the most intense tongue fuck she had ever felt.
“Not here Trent, take me inside and fuck me to insanity.”
She jumped again into the pool and wrapped herself around him. Trent walked to the stairs for the pool, his erection pointing straight at her vagina. As he started going up the stairs she slid into him. As he kept walking his dick was pumping her. It took every nerve, every neuron, every piece of concentration to not slip and fall on the marble-polished floors. He wanted to go to the bedroom but she vehemently suggested the pool table, it was closer. He laid her down on the soft fabric and lifted her legs to his shoulders. He wrapped his left arm around her legs to keep her close to his body and with his right arm he grabbed the inner bevel of the pool table as he fucked her as fast and as strong as he could without hurting her. On and on, in and out, moaning, sweating she started climbing the ladder to that chemical explosion called an orgasm. The last minute, all she did was scream with pleasure as she dug her nails into the fabric of the table scratching and ripping it like a fierce animal as she was hit with the Niagara of orgasms. It took her another minute to be able to roll her eyes to a normal position.
Trent collapsed on top of her exhausted. “That was… yeah! That one is going into the vault.”
“No shit!” she managed to say gasping. She felt something weird under her nails. “Oh noooo! The table!” Cindy had left big scratch marks where both of her hands had ripped the fabric of the table.
“Oh noooo… Toby is going to kill me when he sees this.”
“Don’t worry” he said as he still laid his head on her bosom. “I’m sure it can be repaired. Don’t worry about it, I’ll talk to him and make sure it gets fixed. But hang on, I’ve got to take a picture of this.” She reluctantly stayed in that position as Trent got on top of the pool table and took a picture from above, half a smile, half a smirk. ´I’ll get you for this´ she thought as she took it with humor.
CINDY… WHAT DID YOU DO?
“I’m sorry Toby, ” Cindy said as she apologized for the incident with the pool table. “Don’t worry about it, all the furniture in there is rented, and told them there was a problem with some of the equipment on the construction crew and they were happy to switch the table. Those rentals aren’t cheap you know and we’ve had a long relationship with them in many other buildings so it wasn’t a problem. They only asked to cover the repairs and Trent called me and said he would cover it in full, so, no harm done. We had a new table the next day. But damn girl, that was hot as hell… here, this is for you”. Toby handed her a USB.
“What is this?”
It’s the footage of the security cameras from that day. I forgot to tell you to not flip switch number seven, that’s the security cameras switch.
“You watched it?”
“Damn right I did! I went up there an hour after you left to make sure the cleaning crew left the place spotless. When I saw the scratch on the table I panicked and remembered the cameras so I watched the footage from the camera pointing at the table. Don’t worry, I erased the footage but not before I made a copy of the feeds. here you go, it’s for you, amazing performance, just make sure it doesn’t end up in pornhub ok?”
“Oh my god, Toby I’m so embarrassed you saw that.”
“I’m not, it was hot! Good to know that if you don’t make it in ballet, you have a future in porn, you should open an Only Fans channel.”
“Shut up Tobias!” she said as she turned red and tried to hide a smile while she sipped her latte.
“So what is the deal with this guy? Is it serious or just plain ol’ fuck boy toy?”
“He is beyond real.”
“Calm down girl,” Toby said as he gave Cindy a playful nudge. I’m so glad you are finally happy.
“Toby, I have something to confess but please don’t judge me and please save the jokes for later.”
“Who do you think you are talking to woman? I’m offended! I’ve already seen your “home video”. Now spill it.
“Trent and I are kinda…” She hesitated for a moment. “related.”
“Toby stood still with eyes wide open. Related as in family related?” He finally asked.
“Yes, my mom and her dad are cousins so we are second-degree cousins.”
“Oh honey how did you let this happen, he asked in genuine concern.”
“I… I don’t know, it just did and I’m terrified.”
“Don’t be honey, everything will be alright, I promise.”
“What will my mom say if she finds out!?”
“Well I know for a fact that she loves you and no matter how hard she takes it at first, she’ll eventually come around if he makes you happy. Besides it’s not like you are first cousins and even then I don’t think it’s illegal in the state of NY to marry your cousin, that is if you ever wanna get married. If you don’t then the hell with everyone else. People who care about you will stay and those who don’t will fade away. I’m talking from experience.” He gave her a big hug and shared tears. After they let go of each other he wiped away his tears.
“Take it slow from now on will ya?”
Cindy averted her eyes and avoided eye contact.
“Cindy? Cindy, what did you do?”
AFTER THE POOL INCIDENT
After they got dressed they put two of the pool lounge chairs together right up to the railing as they laid warm and cozy under a blanket and watched the sunset together.
“Do you want to grab a bite on the way back? I need some well-deserved calories.”
“It’s a great idea, but if you don’t mind, could we make it a quick dinner? I’m spent and I need to get up early tomorrow to sign the lease for my apartment.”
“Sure but why don’t you move in with me?” Cindy was as shocked as him.
“You are kidding right?” Trent asked in a very serious manner
“I’m surprised as you but no, I’m being serious. I know we’ve only been together for a week but I feel like I’ve been waiting for you my entire life.”
“But how, where, when?”
Well, I’ve already cleared the room I was using as office space to move next door and was thinking about subletting the space or maybe using it as a guest room, so… you can have it if you want to. I know it’s not as big as your apartment but on the upside, you’ll be living much closer to your baby.
“So we are calling ourselves names now?”
“You know what I meant. She said with a smile. I meant your business.”
“I don’t know. What about taking it slow, I mean, I think we are already going faster than anticipated but…”
“You are right it’s a stupid idea.”
“No it isn’t, it’s just taken me by surprise, that’s all. I do feel that way about you too or more, just to be clear.”
“Then what the hell, let’s do it.”
“Really?” She was ecstatic as she squeezed his dick and gave him a big kiss. “What do you say if we give a big send-off to this place.”
“I’m down with that” Trent replied. As they made love one last time on the high rise as the sun setting gave them more privacy.
EVEN BETTER
Trent moved and unpacked all his stuff over the next three days. Between work and making love to the most amazing girl he had ever met, he was having the best time of his life.
The office was almost ready and Trent helped Cindy move over to her space next door.
After setting the last box down they both sat on the floor and opened a bottle of wine.
“Now I have a request.”
“So all this help was to get on my good side? Whatever it is, I say yes.”
“But you don’t even know what I was going o ask you!”
“I know that and my answer is still yes. But you are right I do need to know how may I be of service.
Well, the office is almost ready and a bunch of people are coming down from SF for the inauguration. A small reception here at the office, more cocktails and canapés, you know the usual and I would love it if you go with me, but you already said yes so…
“I already know the place, I need the date and the time.”
“Next Saturday I can pick you up at your door around eight.”
“Perfect. Let me give you my address so you don’t get lost, it’s a big city after all.”
She grabbed a marker and drew a heart on the palm of his hand.
“And one more thing, I would like you to come as my girlfriend.”
“Even better. She couldn’t hide her grin.”
FACE THE MUSIC
Cindy was getting ready for the party, she had chosen a beautiful black evening dress for the occasion that contrasted her pale skin color and brought out her light blue eyes. It was a long dress with two front slits that ran up to her hips. The loose fabric overlapped each other to appear as a single-piece skirt only showing the legs as she walked or sat. The dress was a one-piece that ended on a “V” shaped cleavage and two strings that traveled from one breast to the other going around the neck for support leaving an aperture between her breasts.
“I think you should go with the one piece skin tight red dress, it will be guaranteed center of attention effect,” Alma said. She offered to help Cindy get ready, helping with her makeup but mostly her hair. Alma was a beautician in Mexico before getting her scholarship to NYU.
“That’s exactly what I want to avoid, this is Trent’s event, I don’t want to be a distraction.”
“Cin, you are already a distraction, you go around New York causing traffic accidents! You are pretty even without makeup, you have beautiful curves, rivaling mine, you just don’t flaunt them as I do, I would have jumped your bones long ago if I weren’t so straight.”
“Gracias Alma, I know what you are trying to do. I appreciate it, you only see me that way because you love me, you are biased. I think I made the right choice. I’ll wear the other one for my birthday next week.”
“I assure you that’s not the case, everyone in the group thinks so, even the guys I’ve dated said so, and a couple of them actually insinuated I should invite you for a threesome.”
“Really? That’s so crazy, sexy but crazy. Anyway, I want to feel more classy than sexy for this event, so the black dress it is.”
“Are you sure? I don’t want to be pushy but isn’t his ex going to be at the party?”
“He said he wasn’t sure and I could care less.”
“Well I’ll bet you a hundred bucks she´ll care, she’ll be there and she’ll pull every trick in the book to try to get him back. I’ve been there, I’ve been that woman. She is coming with everything she´s got.”
“Even so, I have to trust him, otherwise this will never be the relationship I yearn for.”
Alma helped her get ready, Cindy looked beautiful and elegant.
“Have I ever told you I never went to prom?”
“Well me neither, we don’t have those back in Mexico, I had my quinceañera though, but you are fifteen, kind of like sweet sixteen. Well, I have to get going, I have a date with a classmate, wish me luck.”
“Good luck Alma and have a great time, and tell me all about it tomorrow.”
“You too,” said Alma as she closed the bedroom door behind her.
She took a few more minutes to decide what jewelry to wear. She decided on a golden set. A pair of loop earrings and a thin gold necklace that joined a single string at the collar bone with a Swarovski stone at the tail end.
There was a knock on the apartment and wondered if Alma had forgotten something. Trent was still taking a shower when she heard the water running a few minutes ago.
“What did you forg…”
Standing at the door was Jean with a light pink dress that clung to her body like a second skin. Her hair was tied at the top into a ponytail just like Trent liked. High heels, beautiful green eyes, and skin. Tall and slender, she looked like a Barbie doll.
´Damn, I should have worn the red dress!´
“Hi, can I help you?” Jean seemed confused. Cindy was confused and truthfully a little intimidated.
“Is… is Trent here?”
“Hi Jean, I’m Cindy, nice to meet you, Trent is in his room taking a shower. Do you want to come in?”
“I’m sorry, you live here with him?” She said as she looked at Cindy up and down with a surprised look and not a pleasant one.
`That’s right honey, his living with me´. She thought to herself.
“Actually he is the one who just moved here. This is my apartment, well our apartment, I have to start getting used to calling it that way. ”
“And you are?”
“I’m Cindy, I’m leasing the office space with Trent”. She wanted to tell her right there she was Tren’t girlfriend but she didn’t want to be ´that person´, it was a situation that was for Trent to deal with, and she didn’t want to intrude.
“Oh! I knew that, I just didn’t know it was a woman. And much less that you were moving in together.”
Hearing that, she naturally assumed it was just convenience that Trent chose living with his co-tenant, after all, it was right next to the office, such a Trent thing to do she thought. After all, is not like he had “moved on” so quickly right?
Her energy changed and she walked in as she dropped her bag and her coat on the table as if she walked into her boyfriend’s apartment.
“What is this place?”
“It’s my studio, I’m a dancer and instructor.”
“Really? Great! maybe you could teach me some stuff when I come to visit Trent.”
“Oh, you are too old.”
“Excúseme?!”
“I mean, I only teach children.”
Trent came out of his room with a towel wrapped around his waist and another one over his head as he dried his hair.
“Cindy, did you get the door? I heard a knock.”
“Yeah, you have a visit.”
Trent felt the discomfort in her voice. He stopped and looked up to see Jean standing in the living room.
“Jean? What… What are you doing here?”
“Well I left the apartment a little early to find you, I think you and I need to have a talk before the party.”
“But how did you find me here? I haven’t told anyone where I’m staying.”
Alma was right, this woman was cunning and she was bringing her “A” game. Cindy thought to herself.
“I’ll leave you too alone then, I’ll be next door.”
“Thank you Cin, I’ll meet you there in a few minutes. Jean, I’ll just get changed and meet you at the terrace.”
Jean sensed the tension between them. Especially in Trent’s voice.
Looking at the two beautiful girls standing at the apartment, his recent past and his new future Trent realized the night was going to be `complicated´.
Jean walked into Trent’s room after Cindy had left. She closed the door behind her as Trent was putting on his slacks.
“Jean what the hell? What are you doing? I told you I’ll meet you at the terrace.”
“What is the big deal? I’ve seen you get dressed a million times before.”
“We were together then.”
“We are not together now because you ran off without saying a word, do you know how that made me feel? I had to ask around to figure out where you were. I even called your mother!”
She said that as if it was torture she had to call her `boyfriends mother´.
“I think I know who exactly you asked. Look, you had clearly made your choice. There was nothing else to say.”
“I told you I needed time, I never thought of myself as a married woman. We were happy the way things were right?.”
“Yeah! Until I found out you were sleeping around with other men.”
“We weren’t exclusive, it meant nothing. I’m sure you did it too and I was ok with that!”
“YOU weren’t exclusive, we were living together Jean, did I have to spell it out for you?”
“Yes! I love you, I would have been exclusive with you. And then out of nowhere you felt threatened and give me an engagement ring, I was confused as hell Trent, yet if you had given me the opportunity I would have said yes! I’m here to say yes!”
She threw her arms around his neck and kissed him in the mouth as she pressed her body into him.
Trent was shocked and speechless.
“It’s too late Jean, I’m with Cindy now he said as he gently left her lips.”
“What? You were planning on spending the rest of your life with me and suddenly just two weeks later you filled your bed with someone else? I don’t think so, she is just a rebound, she is just payback. But I have your ring, that means something and I’m not giving you up that easy.”
With that, she turned around and left the apartment.
He saw her walk away, her hips swaying, her tight ass bouncing with each step, `Oh god!´ Having her here stirred feelings and desires that he had relegated in favor of anger and spite. Now they all came flushing back at once. She just gave him a big reminder of what drove him insane with desire when he was with her.
Trent sat on the bed, a thousand thoughts, a million feelings going through his head right now. Suddenly he didn’t want to be at that party anymore.
Stop running Trent, time to face the music.
SYNTHETIC
The party had about fifty guests. Half of them came down from SF and the other half were clients and people of influence in NY.
There was an inaugural ribbon, and a couple of photographers took pictures as the board members cut the lace with big scissors. As soon as the formalities were done, the waiters started offering drinks and food treats.
Trent introduced Cindy to his coworkers and guests. Jean was working the room, making small talk with the clients. Mark seemed sad and was trying to make eye contact with Jean, but she seemed to be ignoring him blatantly.
Trent felt kind of sorry for the guy, after all, he was an unaware victim of the circumstances.
Jean kept glancing in Trent’s way and Cindy started to feel uncomfortable, but she would manage, after all, Trent was by her side, that’s all that mattered. As long as Jean was part of the company she was going to be part of Trent’s life and she had to get used to it if she wanted a healthy relationship.
Mark approached Trent and Cindy.
“Hi, Mark! This is Cindy, Cindy, this is Mark. Mark is the CFO of the company, thanks to him everything went as scheduled, money was never an issue.”
“Hi Cindy, you are too beautiful to be hanging around this geek, he said playfully.”
“Haha, thank you Mark, but I’m the lucky one, he’s the one stuck with my mess.”
“I don’t know about that, but tell me, how did you guys meet?”
Well, we met once in Europe fifteen years ago, Trent and his mom stayed with us in France for a week, he participated in a martial arts tournament but we lost touch until two weeks ago when I learned he was in NY looking for office space so I had to show him this great place. One video call later and here we are.
Jean saw them chatting and laughing so she approached Mark from behind and gave him a little squeeze in his lower back as she asked what they were talking about.
Mark’s face seemed to light up again. “Trent and Cindy were just telling me how they met.”
“Oh, I bet is a cute little story,” she said in a diminishing manner.
No, it was pretty cool, like a romance novel, Trent stayed with her and her mom in Europe fifteen years ago for a martial arts tournament in France.
Her eyes lit up, not caring anymore who found out about her relationship with Trent.
Jean had a grin on her face.
“Trent didn’t you tell me you stayed at your cousin’s house that time,” Jean said almost too loudly, enjoying the look of panic in both their eyes.
The comment had the desired effect and the people around them quieted down.
“Yes, Trent said, She’s my cousin. My dad and her mom are cousins so that makes us second degree down the family line”, Trent explained to a confused Mark.
Jean had a triumphant smirk on her face.
Cindy wanted to slap that smirk off her face but she restrained, instead she leaned closer to Trent and kissed him on the lips in front of everyone. `Not in my house´ she thought as she winked at Jean. She saw Jean’s smirk disappear.
“Soooo… very European of you two” finally said Mark, breaking a little of the tension. “I have a cousin I had a crush on, I guess it’s more common than we would like to admit, after all, we are flesh added Mark.”
The party started mumbling but in a very positive manner, they all started sharing stories and everyone seemed to empathize.
“So Cindy said Mark, I like your dress. If wanted to get one for my girlfriend where would I find it?”
Knowing full well who he was referring to she said to him “It depends, not all women like the same things, some girls choose polyester over cotton for example.
“Is yours polyester?”
“No, I don’t like to wear plastic,” she said as she looked directly at Jean’s breasts.
Trent noticed the tension building between Cindy and Jean, he had to separate them or this was going to end badly.
“Well guys excuse me for a second there´s a couple of people I want to introduce Cindy to. You guys have a lovely evening.”
“Cindy, are you ok? don’t let her get to you.”
“I know, I’m sorry, she’s just so unpleasant!”
“Yes, but I don’t want you girls to cause a scene.”
“She’s the one who has to be restrained, not me.”
“I know, let’s just stay away from her the rest of the night, ok?”
“This party isn’t going to be the entire night, you know right? As she looked at him with desire. And maybe I´m the one who is going to want to be restrained”
“Are you trying to seduce me with those insinuating eyes?”
“Why, is it working.”
Keep it up and I’ll have to rip another one of your dresses.
“Is that a promise?”
“More of a fact,” he said as he kissed her full on the lips.
OK
As the party was coming to an end Cindy’s phone started ringing.
“It’s Gabby, why would she be calling me at 2:00 am? Hello? What’s wrong Gaby? Whaaaat? Where? when? How is she? Ok, where are you? What hospital? I´ll be right there.”
“What’s wrong?”
“It’s Alma, apparently she was assaulted by her date. I have to go, I’m sorry.”
“Of course, let’s go, I’m coming with you.”
“Thank you but you still have guests you have to attend, I’ll be fine, Gaby said she was ok, just bruised and scared. I’ll let you know as soon as I learn more.”
“Send me the location and I’ll be there as soon as this is done”
“Ok, I love you.” She realized what she had just said but she didn’t have time to deal with it right now, she just turned around and left, leaving Trent in a daze.
“I take it it’s the first time she has said it to you, Aw! So sweet” Jean said as she approached Trent. “finally! I thought she would never leave. She’s a clingy one.”
“Yeah exactly what I needed, she is a great partner.”
“Well I could be that too if you let me,” she said as she lifted her hand and showed him the engagement ring he gave her.
“What about Mark?”
“I already talked to him and told him about us.”
There is no `us´. Where is he? I want to talk to him.
“I don’t know, I think he left after our conversation.” Jean started playing with her hair and pulled him into one of the couches. “Let’s talk as adults, you owe me at least that much after you left without an explanation. I´ll start. I’m sorry for being a mess. I didn’t know what you expected of me, you weren’t the expressive type of guy and I liked that, I had no idea you were this serious, but having you away from me has made me realize the amazing man you are and that being your wife wouldn’t be so bad.”
“Oh Jean, that is the difference, Cindy isn’t insecure about us or thinking that it wouldn’t be so bad to be with me or that she wants to be with other men besides me. She feels amazing when she is with me, she only has eyes for me and I’m sure eventually she will be thrilled to marry me. If that is something we both want in the future.”
“Can you even marry your cousin?”
“Goodbye Jean”, Trent started to get up.
“Wait… wait, I’m sorry, you are right, I’m being a bitch, but losing you is driving me crazy. I love you. Do you love me?”
“I thought I did at the time.”
“… and did your love just vanish?”
Trent hesitated and Jean noticed, it was good enough for her, at least for now.
“The company wants me to stay here for a while to hire your staff so we’ll be seeing a lot of each other this week.” She got up and walked away as she slid her hand over his thigh. He tried not to stare at her ass.
After everyone was gone Trent looked at his phone at 3:22 and still no news about Alma. So he dialed.
Cindy picked up and whispered, “Hang on a sec.” He heard a door open and close.
“Sorry I didn´t call, we left the hospital a while ago, we are at her place. She is fine, at least physically, doctor prescribed some sleeping pills, and she is sleeping soundly right now. Toby, Gaby, and Francesca are sleeping in the living room. I stayed with her the whole time so I wasn’t able to call you.”
“It’s ok Cin, I understand and I’m really glad she is ok and you are taking good care of her.”
“So how was the rest of the party?”
“It was fine but I wish I was there with you.”
“I know, me too, but Alma needs me right now, I don’t know why but she seems to feel safer around me, she would keep asking for me until I arrived at the hospital and once I got there she wouldn’t let my hand go.”
“I’m not at all surprised, you have that effect on me too, maybe she loves you almost as much as I do.”
He now realized what he just said. There was an awkward pause in the conversation.
“I love you too, and I’m glad it’s off my chest, soooo… you are not weirded out about my feelings for you?”
“Not at all. Soooo what happened? If this not an inconvenient time to talk.”
Not at all, just let me go into the kitchen, since everyone is asleep. Well… she told me she had a date, but she didn’t say it was with her ex-boyfriend. She knew I wouldn’t approve! They had a complicated relationship, but it had never come to violence. She´s lucky he didn’t kill her, apparently, he was drunk and beat her because she refused to have sex with him. Luckily she’s a strong girl and managed to escape and scream for help. Oh god Trent, he almost raped her!.”
“She’s lucky to have you guys.”
“Thank you, Trent.”
Another awkward silence `Don’t say it Cin, don’t be that girl!´
`Don’t say it… don’t…´ “So what about Jean, did she stay until the end?” (Stupid, stupid… stupid)
“Yes, we got to talking, it was good, I finally said stuff I kept inside, and she did too. It was good closure for me.”
“And for her?”
“To be honest she wants us to get back together, she came here to tell me she accepted my proposal to get married.”
Cindy felt a cold chill run up her spine. “Oookkkeeeyyyy”
“But don’t worry, I told her it was too late, I found the most amazing girl so she should move on.”
“How did she take it?”
“I guess she is still processing it. She is staying for at least the next week, work-related but I think she is going to try and get back together.”
“And how do you feel about that?”
“I don’t want you to worry about it, it’s not only over, but helped me realize exactly what I don’t want in my life.”
“Trent, what I said before leaving… I meant it. I’m in love with you and even though you might not be emotionally where I’m at, I wanted to say it.”
“I love you too Cin. I’m already on my way out of the building, send me a location and I’ll drop by and get you guys some breakfast. Would that be ok? I don’t want to intrude.”
It’s perfect Trent, I don’t think I’m the only one here who appreciates some food right now.
“I want a turkey sandwich from the corner” Toby yelled from the living room.
“I’ll have the tuna sandwich” Francesca yelled.
“I would like some yogurt please” Gaby yelled.
“Oh my god! Is there no sense of privacy with you guys?”
“Considered it done,” said Trent
“There you go, more than willing to accept my boyfriend’s offer.”
“Love it when you say it like that, and what do you want?”
“I want you, so hurry up. Oh! And a croissant for me please if it’s not too much trouble.”
“Perfect, I’ll be there in a few.”
Trent picked up the food at the deli and took a cab to Alma’s apartment. They stayed and talked until one by one they fell asleep.
The rest of the weekend was spent at Alma’s. Playing games, watching movies, and talking, lots of conversation. Trent was having fun and felt great getting to know this new group of people who he started to consider friends.
Alma felt great among friends, yet she was also embarrassed she got herself in a situation where she could have been killed. She felt so stupid! She had decided not to press charges. She couldn’t shake the idea that she had provoked it somehow.
“I’m sorry guys, you don’t need to be here, I’m fine really, she said as she winced when she sat down for breakfast.”
“It is no problem Alma,” Cindy said.
“Yeah, you would do the same for any of us.” Said Gaby
“Thank you guys, I’m just so sorry I worried all of you and spoiled your evening.” She said turning to Cindy.
“You have nothing to be ashamed of. It’s not your fault and we´ll be here for you no matter what.” Responded Cindy.
“And as I said, I’m here if you decide to press charges or file a restraining order, or both”. Said Gaby in a lawyer-ly manner.
“You can come over to my place for a few days if you feel like it honey, we´ll have pajama parties every day”, said Toby.
“Or I can stay with you for a few days if you’ll accept me and my canvas”. Said Francesca
“Thank you guys but I’m ok, I promise.”
Suddenly there was a knock on the door, Alma immediately tensed as she recognized that knock.
“Who is it?” Cindy yelled.
“It’s Tommy”, I want to talk to Alma, is she here?
“Alma doesn’t want to talk to you anymore, please leave.”
“Alma, are you there? Alma please, let me explain, I want to apologize to you, you are my girl, I don’t know what happened to me, I’ve never done anything to hurt you before. I’ll never do it again, it was the booze, you know how I get when I drink.”
“I don’t care anymore Tommy, please leave.” Yelled Alma
There was silence outside the door.
“It’s that piece of shit lawyer friend of yours who has poisoned you against me isn’t it?”
“She said go Tommy”, Toby yelled.
“Who the fuck do you think you are faggot?”
There was a metallic sound and they realized Tommy had a key. Trent heard Tommy slide in the key. He quickly jumped to the door and as he was leaning to stop Tommy from entering, he felt a push. Then a second push so strong that the door swung open and Trent was pushed backward a couple of steps, but if there was something he learned early on from martial arts was balance so he quickly recovered, and before Tommy gave another step Trent spun on his heel and gave Tommy a kick in the chest, so hard that he went flying down the hall to land on his back and roll on the floor a couple of feet. Tommy gasped for air as he struggled to get up slowly.
“Leave right now”, said Trent in such a threatening manner that Cindy was shocked. They were all shocked.
“Right now we are calling the cops,” Trent said as he snapped his fingers behind him to snap his friends out of the shock.
Cindy quickly dialed 911.
“Your choice, the cops or the paramedics?”
Tommy was still rubbing his chest where he had been kicked.
Who.. the fuck… are… (cough)… you?
“The place in your chest you are touching is called the sternum, it’s a bone that joins your ribs and collar bones, it’s there to provide protection for vital organs like your heart and lungs. It is a strong one but not strong enough to hold another one of my kicks. Who am I? I’m the guy who is going to plea self-defense in a manslaughter trial if you give one more step.
Tommy without saying anything took out a knife from the back of his pants. “Well have to see about that”. Trent recognized it as a tactical knife, serrated on top, all black, the kind you get at a gunshop or tactical store.
Cindy gave a little squeal of fear.
“I really hope you are skilled with that weapon Tommy, otherwise you are going to end up wearing it like a tie right where I kicked the shit out of you. It will happen so fast you will not understand how the knife you had in your hand ended up lodged in your sternum straight through your trachea. So go home and put that piece of paraphernalia where it belongs, in a display box.
Tommy gave a step forward.
Trent yelled strong enough to resonate the whole hallway. “I am not bluffing asshole, I spent years training Marines and special forces to be lethal in hand-to-hand combat”, as he flexed his knees and spread his legs, assuming a combat posture and tensing his whole body. “I can kill you with my bare hands! Are you going to be that stupid??”
Years of training had given Trent the ability to read an opponent’s body language and evaluate his skill and determination. Tommy had neither. As soon as Trent saw him hesitate he charged down the hall.
He was right, Tommy was a coward, he bolted to the right to get out of Trent`s way. Unfortunately for him, he was standing right next to the stairs, so he rolled down two flights of stairs. Lucky for him he let go of the knife as he fell so he didn’t stupidly stab himself while rolling down. Trent watched from above as Tommy crashed down. Tommy got up and limped the rest of the way down the stairs. Trent walked back into the apartment, took the key out of the doorknob, closed the door behind him, locked it and without acknowledging the people standing in the living room walked straight to the window and made sure Tommy left the building. Until Trent saw Tommy limp his way across the street and around the corner he relaxed and returned to being the kind-mannered man Cindy knew.
Toby was sitting next to Cindy, his grip was leaving a mark on her arm, everything happened so fast that it felt surreal. They were all shocked, they weren’t trained to react like Trent. Cindy got up and walked to Alma and hugged her from behind as she started crying again releasing her crippling fear.
Trent walked back to the kitchen and sat down next to Alma, grabbed her hand, and said. “You should listen to Gaby and file a restraining order and press charges today.”
“Ok.”
