“You’ll see.” I walked to the closet and pulled out the box I’d stashed earlier. La Perla. One of them silky joints with the matching robe. I turned back to see Autumn’s mouth drop.
“You… bought me lingerie?”
“Hell yeah. I love what you look like naked, but I’m tryna see you in this shit ASAP.”
She shook her head, lowkey smiling. “You’re so freaky.”
“And you love it.” She rolled her eyes like she wanted to fight it, but I saw her blush anyway. “Come hit the shower wit’ me, gorgeous,” I said, placing the box on the bed and reaching for her hand.
I led her into the bathroom and cut the shower on, adjusting the water to make sure it wasn't too hot. I pulled my shirt off, then my lounge pants, and looked over my shoulder to see Autumn doing the same. She stepped into the shower first, and I followed, closing the glass behind us. The water hitus both, steam rising quickly, and I let my hands slide over her belly, then around her hips.
“You still full or you got room for all this dick in your stomach?” I asked low.
“Full enough,” she said, brushing her fingers across my chest. “But I got room.”
I kissed her neck, taking my time. We passed the soap between each other, lathering and washing, slow and unbothered, just feeling each other. She turned to rinse, and I slid my hands up her thighs from behind, kissing her shoulder, her spine, the side of her neck again, while the water dripped down both of us.
“Are you trying to start something in the shower or save it for the bedroom?” she whispered, back arching.
“You know I’m tryna take my time, baby,” I said, voice deep, hands still on her. “I ain’t got nowhere else to be.”
After the shower, I handed her a towel and dried myself off. She left the bathroom before I did, looking soft and dangerous all at once. My phone buzzed on the counter. I let it go off once… twice… then picked it up.
“Yeah.”
It was Stevenson. One of my distribution partners. I was trying to eat Autumn’s pussy off the bone, not have to check muthafuckas for interrupting my personal time. Of course, this nigga’s voice was full of anxiety.
“Aye, my bad for callin’, but one of them bougie-ass clients out in Highland talkin’ ‘bout they package late. Sayin’ it wassupposed to arrive three hours ago and now they blowin’ my shit up.”
I ran a towel over my face, calm as ever. “And?”
“And… I told ’em it’s probably just traffic or some shit, but they talkin’ ‘bout cancelin’ future drops if we ain’t punctual. You want me to send somebody else out or—”
“Nah. You already know what to do.”
“Bet. Just didn’t wanna step without tappin’ in.”
“It’s a holiday. Shit movin’ a little slower. But it’s still movin’. Tell ’em relax. It’s comin’. And if they still cryin’, cut their ass loose.”
Stevenson laughed low. “Say less. That’s all I needed. You good?”
“Always. Hit up Rob if anything else happens.”
I hung up, set the phone down, rolled my shoulders, and flexed my jaw once before heading out of the bathroom. When I stepped into the bedroom, Autumn was already in the La Perla. It was silky black, hugging every inch of her as if it were made just for her.
I froze, eyes roaming all over her. She smiled slowly, crossing her legs as she sat on the edge of the bed. Oiled down. Hair pinned up. The room smelled like cherries and honey. My dick bricked up instantly. “Goddamn.” I gripped my shit, walking towards her, ready to tear her ass up.
“Wait,” she giggled, placing a hand on my chest.
“Wait? Gorgeous, you see my dick? I need you now.”
She laughed, standing up. “Follow instructions and just lay back.”
“Oh, you runnin’ shit right now?”
She didn’t respond as I dropped onto the bed, propped up a little on my elbows, still watching her. She walked toward the Bluetooth speaker on the nightstand, turned the volume up just a little. A Summer Walker joint was already playing low as Autumn started moving. It wasn’t no full-out dance. She just swayed her hips, bent all the way over, and jiggled her ass. Peering over her shoulder, she almost died laughing at the way I was stroking my dick. What the fuck did she expect?
She turned around to face me and pulled the robe down her arms, slow as hell, letting it slide off her. Her hips moved just enough to make my jaw clench. Her eyes stayed on mine the whole time.
