Chapter 4 4

"Why? What do you think of me?" I asked, giving him a sexy tone.

"Do you really want to know?" I was caught off guard as he leaned closer, making me aware of his maleness.

I could feel the hotness of his breath and the warmness of his body sending chills all throughout of me. I was compelled, hypnotized and drawn towards him.

"Yes." I was shocked when I stifled a moan.

"Later, Kate." He whispered as he caressed my cheek with one finger.

We danced in the middle of the crowd. Glaring lights flashing on the dance floor as we continued to rock body to body. We felt each other's sweat and our breaths mingled. It did not matter anymore that we were touching skin-to-skin and chest-to-chest.

I was so happy like something inside me snapped open. I had trust issues with straight men, and I developed angst of mingling with them. But meeting Dan, he made me feel so much at ease with him, like there was nothing to fear about. All I need was just to be myself and be more openminded.

It had been too long since I experienced the feeling of being with a man and I wanted to savor the moment. I felt the freedom and enjoyment of Dan's company. He seemed like a very nice guy -- understanding, caring and a gentleman. One thing I noticed, he did not want to talk about himself much, more on curious about me. Well, it did not matter. There would be plenty of time to get to know each other well.

As the night flies, I've learned that we had a lot in common. We both loved pop music, rock, country to classic music, we enjoyed Japanese food especially ramen and okonomiyaki, we watched movies on Netflix during weekends and thought that Bird Box was overrated. It was like I've known him for years.

Jerry texted me that Julie was drunk and sleeping in his car. While he was with his boyfriend Roy, and since it was Roy's off already, they were chilling in his quarter. I told him about Dan, and it would be great if they would meet. But some other time, there would be plenty of time though.

Dan and I had another drink in the bar. It was my second glass of the lady's drink. Unlike the Margarita, it was very delicious and refreshing but a traitor. It contained more alcohol giving me a wobbly feeling.

"You're so beautiful. I'm sure you know that."

"I don't know that." I said, touching the collar of his white shirt.

"Come on, Kate. Haven't you noticed?" He leaned closer, bringing his face closer to min. His lips barely touching my right ear as he whispered. "Men stares at you... and they envy me, wishing they could take my place."

My body tingled at his nearness. This sexual tension that had been swirling around us was too much to bear anymore. I moved backward to give more space between us but his hand stopped me, holding my waist still. I looked at his eyes and saw the intensity of his desire... the magnetic force was so strong that I could not evade. He wanted me as much as I wanted him.

I did not know who started it first but we ended up kissing. The first touch was so soft and gentle. The next was hot and exploratory. The next next became deep and drugging... and very addicting.

I did not have much recollection afterwards. I just knew that we could not stop touching, kissing - making out. We were in the elevator and I was watching the numbers going up.

"Where are we going?" I asked him. I had a heady sensation as Dan continued to kiss my neck, running his tongue deliciously to the sensitive area behind my ear. I moaned when his right hand touched my breast, kneading it gently.

"To heaven Kate. I'll take you to heaven."
