“I am too. I know it’s spring of my senior year, but it’s something.”
“What grade is she in?”
“She’s also a senior.”
“Wonderful. Hopefully, this will be the start of a lasting friendship.” I nodded at his comment. “What else? How was the rest of school, and how were things at home this week?”
“School was fine. I got a B on my algebra test, so I was happy with that.”
“How are things at home?” He pressed again for me to expand on that. I shrugged.
“They’re fine. Mom and Thomas have a lot of engagements and parties to go to lately. Thomas’s record label has a handful of artists who are doing really well or releasing albums. So since he’s busy, Mom is busy.”
“Do they have parties at the house?”
I nodded and laughed.
“Oh, yes. A lot. Usually there is something going on each week.”
“Does that disrupt you and your studying?”
“Not too much. I love being in my room, and there is something positive about it,” I said playfully.
“What’s that?”
“My bedroom is upstairs facing the backyard, so I can gaze down below at the hot bodies in the pool.” I laughed along with Elijah, and I could feel my cheeks burn from mentioning that I’d watched people from my room.
“Do you watch men or women, or both?” he asked.
Mmm … Dr. Hamilton, you and your naughty questions.The heat between my legs became more noticeable at his question.
“Men,” I answered. “Mainly the older men,” I reiterated. I’d made sure that whenever he’d asked me about boys at school and my interests that he knew I was into older guys.
“Never women, though?” I must have wrinkled my nose or made a face because he suddenly laughed, which made me blush even more. “Don’t worry; you’re still very young and will have lots of time to explore and experiment,” he added.
Why did that sound so hot? Was it the fact that he’d said it, or was it the idea of experimenting that kicked up my temperature? Did Elijah have a thing for watching two women? Mmm, I could be one of those women.
“So, what is it about older guys that presses all of your buttons, Salem?”
Oh my God, was he really asking me? Quick! Think!
“Well, just that they’re men. Their bodies usually are hotter, and they have bigger muscles. Their chests are perfect to lay a head against, and their big arms are strong enough to be held and protected by. Their voices are sexy. I love a raspy man voice,” I confessed.
“Have you ever been with a man?” he asked as he tilted his head to the side.
I shook my head, suddenly shy.
“You mentioned many characteristics of what you like in older men; I thought that perhaps there was a chance you had some experience with them.”
“No, unfortunately. I watch movies and read books, so I have the fantasy down pretty solid, I think.” I laughed and shook my head at the things I’d said to him.
“Do you get turned on by watching the older men at Thomas’s parties?” Elijah’s light laughter melted my heart and made my clit throb. What I wouldn’t do to see Elijah in swim trunks in our backyard. “Your red cheeks answered for you,” he said playfully.
“Sorry. My crazy face seems to give a lot away,” I said while I laughed and hid my face in my hands.
“Don’t be shy or embarrassed. There’s nothing wrong with it at all. Everyone fantasizes, and if they say they don’t, they’re lying.” I nodded to show him that I understood what he was saying. “So, some of Thomas’s friends excited you. Maybe even Thomas. Have you done anything bold to get a man’s attention?” he asked.
“Um,” I murmured nervously as I instantly thought about the few videos and pics that I’d emailed from an account that I’d created just for that purpose. But I couldn’t tell Elijah about those. Or could I?
