Every Soul

His noises are such a fucking turn-on, they’re so deep and low. I can’t help but listen to him closely and get lost to him in this moment. Looking at Bain, he is in his zone, eyes closed, forehead creased, and lost in us.

“So sweet,” he whispers, a phrase that only Nate has ever said to me. Instantly, his face flashes before my eyes and I can’t help, but grab each of Bain’s ass cheeks, holding them firmly. The moment I make contact holding him like this, Nate is gone, and before me, only Bain, sexier than ever. In that moment, I realize maybe God brought him into my life for a reason. I’ll never get Nate back. I know that and I need to let him go. Maybe Bain is who I’m truly meant to be with?

Bain leans down, connecting our mouths, and I give him all of me. I turn over every single ounce of the woman that I am to this gorgeous man. As we kiss and fuck, he holds me firmly, coming inside of me. On cue, my body lets go along with his. Our tongues thrashing against one another’s, only intensifies every sensation.

Spirals and bliss, sprinkled with ecstasy, give me the most delicious orgasm ever. Once his movements slow, he begins to get off of me, but I stop him.

He looks down at me confused; we’ve never stayed connected like this before. “Are you ready to get going?” he asks.

I shake my head and wrap my arms around him, holding our bodies together. “No, let’s stay.”

Bain settles for a few moments, then looks down at me and says, “Arion, I don’t want to be the cause of any regrets for you.”

Smiling, I kiss him, and then pull him to lay his head back down on me. “You won’t.”

“I mean it. You mean too much to me to risk staying the night together.”

“Will you just be quiet and enjoy this moment?” I ask.

He nods his head on my chest and I gently rake my fingernails up and down his back. His skin, so soft and warm. My touch causes his dick to harden again inside of me.

“You’re an animal,” I tease him.

“I have to get my five hundred dollars worth of use out of this room. I know my dad is going to chew my ass later for this one, but it was so worth it.”





With Arion wrapped in my arms, all of my worries are suppressed to the back of my mind. The clock on the nightstand reads 10:47am. I know we have to check out at 11:00, but I can’t wake her. I just can’t. I’m still shocked that she stayed the night with me, and I fear deep down that this is going to change everything.

Even though she said it wouldn’t, I’m worried that it will. I’ve been up for over an hour, my mind racing over all the events that have taken place recently. And it all comes down to the fact that I have to make a decision. I’m almost twenty-three years old and Arion is right. Do I want to look back and be in the NBA or still in this rut? I can hear Kinsey now; she would be pissed at me for acting this way. Sometimes, I guess I just need a kick in the ass to put things in perspective and to fight for justice for Kinsey. I know I don’t want to live with regrets any longer; it’s something I’ve been wallowing in, a sickening, horrible feeling that I never want to experience again.

Arion stirs awake next to me. I release my grip on her warm, perfect body, allowing her to stretch. I watch a little scared, like the moment her eyes open she’s gonna freak out, but that moment never comes. Instead she rolls into me and wraps her arms around me. “What time is it?” she asks.

“Almost eleven,” I respond in a calm, even tone.

“Do we have to go soon?”

“Uh-huh.”

“I don’t wanna leave here.”

“Why?” I ask as she finally looks up at me, her eyes as clear as the ocean water.

“I love the city. Just something about it feels like home.”

“Why don’t you live here?”

“We don’t all have crazy money like you, Bain.”

“I don’t have crazy money. My parents do.”

“Well, regardless, it would be far from you.”

“And that’s a problem for you now?”

She nods her head and my heart tightens at her affection. For the first time since I’ve know her, I feel like she truly cares about me, and more than just as a casual fuck. I’ve known all along that she’s wanted me, but not like this.

Lying together with our legs interlocked and arms bound around each other’s naked bodies, I can truly say I’ve never felt this content with anyone. Basketball was always my priority, but Arion could be that, now.

I shake my head to clear those thoughts. Just because we stayed the night together doesn’t mean things are going to be any different and one comment from her certainly doesn’t change anything, or mean that she wants anything more than a fuck buddy. “I gotta pee,” she says sitting up. The sheets fall off her breasts before she gets up and walks into the bathroom stark naked and white as ivory. My cock tingles watching her leave. She’s so fucking hot. I hate that it’s close to 11. Damn it. I would fuck her like an animal if we didn’t have to check out, but it’s time to go. Getting out of bed, I find my clothes in a pile by the expansive wall of glass windows and begin to dress.
