said, I don’t really know why
it happens. It just does."
"You said it happens when you get close to someone. But
we barely know each other."
"But you did save my life," I replied. "Can't
get much closer than that. Besides, I do find you attractive, and you have seen
me naked."
"Yes I have," she said with a chuckle. Then she
took a deep drink and got up from the table.
"I've got some clothes in the car," she said. "Do
you mind if I use one of your other showers? I don’t want to disturb Cam any
more than I have to."
"No problem," I replied. "Get your stuff and
I'll meet you upstairs. I'll get you some clean towels."
I was pulling two towels out of my bathroom cabinet when I
heard her call my name.
"In here," I said.
She came into the bedroom before I reached the hallway.
"Nice," she commented.
"I like it," I replied as she looked the room
over. I had to admit, the master was nice and big. I had a four poster bed and
a sitting area with a fireplace, although it wasn't lit at the moment. And the
master bathroom? Well, let's just say that when I rebuilt it I didn’t skimp.
"Holy shit," she said, putting down her bag as she
eyed the shower. "You could fit a dozen people in here."
"It's not quite that big," I said with a chuckle.
"Hey," she replied. "I live in an apartment.
Everything is bigger than mine. Would you mind if I used it?"
"Go ahead," I said, handing her the two towels I'd
gotten for her. Then I went back to the closet and handed her a robe. "I'll
give you some privacy."
I went downstairs to finish cleaning up, making a point to
check on Jen's patient who was sleeping peacefully. When I was done, I grabbed
the wine and glasses and went back upstairs. Hearing the hair dryer, I stopped
in front of the master bedroom. I opened the door just a bit.
"You decent?" I asked.
"Come on in," I heard her say, so I went in. I set
the wine glasses on the bathroom counter. She was dressed in the robe and
turned off the hair dryer when she saw me.
"Thought you might still want this," I said,
refilling the glasses before setting the wine down. I started to walk out with
mine but she stopped me.
"Where you going?" she asked.
"To give you some privacy," I answered.
"Don't go," she said, then returned to drying her
hair.
"I'll wait in the bedroom," I said. I walked over
to the sitting area and sat down in one of the chairs. A minute or so later,
she came out of the bathroom. The bright white robe accented her thick blonde
hair and tan legs as she stood at the arched entrance. I couldn’t help but
notice how beautiful she was, especially framed by the light behind her.
"Are you always such a gentleman?" she asked as
she tilted her glass and took a drink.
"You're my guest," I said, picking up mine and
tilting it in her direction. "I'm just trying to be polite."
"Are all Fae like you?" she asked as she walked
around the bed and sat down. "So polite, I mean."
"Probably not," I replied. "But then I was
raised differently, so I have an excuse."
That made her laugh.
"But you do find me attractive, right?" she said. "I'm
just curious because most guys would have already tried to get in my pants."
Then she sipped again, her eyes watching me over the rim. "Am I being too
direct again?"
"A bit," I agreed, taking another drink and
setting the glass down. "But, then again, you aren’t wearing any. Pants,
that is."
"Good point."
"I am a trained observer," I said in jest.
"Are you seeing anyone on a regular basis?" she
asked abruptly.
"If you mean am I in a relationship," I replied, "Then
no, not at the moment."
"Good," she said, walking up to me and sliding her
body between my legs. "I would prefer to avoid... complications." She
placed the glass on the table next to mine and sat down on my lap. Turning a
bit, she loosened the tie on her robe, placed her hands around my neck, leaned
in and kissed me gently. "If I remember correctly, you said you owed me
for saving your life. I think now would be a good time to
it happens. It just does."
"You said it happens when you get close to someone. But
we barely know each other."
"But you did save my life," I replied. "Can't
get much closer than that. Besides, I do find you attractive, and you have seen
