Apparently, I hiss, because he says “Sorry” with a boyish smile.
A chuckle escapes me, a sound so unlike my typical laugh. My mind is still blurry and my body weighs a ton. It’s my stomach’s turn to ask for attention, and I realize I’m starving.
“Fuck, I’m hungry.” It’s his turn to chuckle.
“How about we order some takeout?” I continue. He pauses, looking up at me before gazing at his watch.
“I’d love to, but I have to get home and get my stuff for hockey practice.” His shoulders slump.
“Oh, of course.” I get up, putting my clothes, at least the pieces I find, back on. He follows my lead, and in a minute, we’re back in the open concept living room and kitchen, where we started our undressing journey.
“Here.” I hand him the turtleneck.
“Thanks.”
He’s already at the door when he turns around.
“I’m really liking this ‘friends with benefits’ thing.” He winks before leaving, leaving me flustered once again.
I find my phone and order some pizza, hoping to fill at least a part of the emptiness I’m currently feeling.
There are a lot of unknown things in our new arrangement, but one thing I definitely wasn’t expecting was for him to be the one leaving, and me being the one disappointed by it.

MATT
I’m praying no one gets hurt at practice, but my head isn’t in it. By the end of the relay race, I’m not even sure who won. Luckily, these kids are great and know the practice from start to finish.
Getting into my car, I exhale a huge breath. I wasn’t sure what our agreement would look like, wasn’t sure how long would it be until I get to have her again.
But today...wow. How is it possible that each time with her breaks a record in the best sex category? Every time I think I couldn’t possibly be better than this, I’m proved wrong.
Eating her out on the kitchen island...I guess I do have some kitchen skills, after all. Having her perfect body underneath me, pliant and whimpering, trembling with pleasure. The choking. Fuckkkk, the choking.
I noticed the second the lack of oxygen was too much, which scared the shit out of me, but it also filled me with vast gratitude.
This fleeting, skittish creature filled with trust issues trusted me with her literal life. I don’t think she’s aware of it, but I notice it. I notice when her face strips the mask of detachment, replacing it with pure passion and devotion.
Seeing my cum dripping down her thigh does something to me. Something primal, making my chest beat harder, screaming ‘Mine’with every beat.
My cock is hard again by the time I get home, but I’m not going to take care of it. It would be a poor substitute, anyway. Instead, I torture myself by doing more research on breath play. It’s hard not to imagine her in the lines I read, but if we’ll be doing this more often, I need to be more than slightly informed.
“Now that wehave our theme, thank you, Matt, let’s make it as good as possible.” Natalie states as she leads the décor team meeting in the conference room on Tuesday morning. “I’m excited to hear your great ideas.”
She’s wearing a deep green dress that cinches her waist and flows freely down her legs. She looks gorgeous as ever, so it takes me extra effort to keep hearts out of my eyes.
Though it annoys me she doesn’t pay me attention, it’s a nice reprieve. I’m not sure how I would hide my erection if she dared to stare at me with those chocolate eyes. The others are brainstorming ideas, but I’m barely listening. I hope the ideas I gave last time were enough contribution.
“Matt, what do you think? This was your idea after all.” Anne slaps my shoulder.
“Sounds good,” I say but the look in her eyes says she knows I have no idea what we’re talking about. I pull my focus back, listening to Danielle. I like my initial idea, but what she’s saying and what Natalie has written on the whiteboard without me noticing are miles away.
My idea was an interesting looking piece of dirt, but they’re making it into a diamond.
“Great work, everyone!” Natalie claps her hands. “I’ll type this up and delegate the tasks by the end of the day.”
Everyone rushes to the door, leaving me and her to exit last.
