The only sound in the room was an occasional moan from Arsel and music flowing through the speakers.
I knew it had been a while since he had a real moment to relax, and I felt good being able to give that to him.
“Why didn’t you fight harder for me when I left?” It was a question that I’d been wanting to ask him, but for some reason, I was afraid of the answer.
Arsel tried to flip over, but I pushed him back down. My hands moved over his shoulders, then down to his back.
“Because I know you. If I had tried to make you come back, you wouldn’t have and probably would have stayed away even longer. I wanted to respect your needs. I didn’t like it, but I realized we needed it to get where we are now.”
“Did you think we would be here? Like this?”
“I always knew we would. Giving you space didn’t mean I was letting you go for good.”
Silence fell over us for a moment. I let his words seep into my chest. I wanted him to fight harder in the beginning, but my grandmother made me realize I couldn’t make him do anything he wasn’t ready for. I knew I had to let things progress whatever way God intended for us.
My father was a prime example of what happened when a person tried to pressure someone into something they didn’t want to do. At least that was what my grandmother said. Shesaid my dad knew my mom didn’t want kids but got her pregnant anyway. The problem I had with that was that my mom should have taken better precautions. I would have hated to get pregnant before I was ready to.
“Turn over,” I told Arsel after I massaged his legs and feet.
When he turned over, his dick jumped when his eyes landed on me. I’d taken my pajamas off and was naked like he was.
“You think I’m supposed to let you keep rubbing on me while you are standing there with no clothes on, looking all good and shit?” His voice lowered, and I had to squeeze my thighs together.
“Yes. We have to stick to the plan. Trust me, it will be worth it.” I climbed back onto the bed and straddled him.
“Baby, why are you playing with me?” Arsel gripped my hips and tried to move me, but I didn’t let him.
“Patience, baby.” I leaned forward and kissed him deeply. I moaned when his hands gripped my ass. I pulled back before I ended up sliding down onto him. “You don’t get to run things tonight. This is my show,” I whispered in his ear, then bit his earlobe.
I moved back and grabbed the massage oil. Just like I did with his back, I let it warm up in my hand and rubbed his chest. I massaged his chest, his stomach, and rubbed some of the oil on his dick as I stroked it.
“Shit.” Arsel groaned as his dick continued to harden in my hand.
I didn’t spend too much time on it because I wasn’t ready for him to cum. Arsel fussed and cursed when I removed my hand to move on to his legs.
Laughter sprouted from my mouth when he called me selfish.
“What do you think I love the most about you?”
Arsel’s eyes popped open as his eyebrows furrowed.
“Janiyah, do you really think I want to answer questions right now with my dick ready to punch a hole in the wall?”
I applied pressure on his thighs and watched his dick jump again.
“Yes. Answer my question, and I’ll reward you.”
His eyes turned into slits, and I laughed again. He wasn’t the only one being tortured. Every muscle I rubbed on his body turned me on. Every time he moaned, I got wetter. I wanted him just as bad.
“I think you love my drive, even when it didn’t benefit you. You met me as an ambitious college student who wasn’t going to let anyone get in the way of my dreams. You were one of the only people who understood me. Yeah, we kind of got off track a little, but the important thing is we are back on the same road, driving in the same lane.”
I bit my bottom lip as I listened to him because he was right. A lot of the guys I crossed paths with in college were just trying to party and have sex with as many girls as they could, but that wasn’t Arsel. He was about his business from day one.
“You’re right. We’re in the same car now, baby.” I gripped his dick again and stroked it. I climbed off him and slid down until I was on my knees.
Leaning forward with my ass in the air, I took him into my mouth.
Arsel let out a low hiss as his hands found my hair. I sucked him until he almost came, then I slid down on his dick and rode him until we fell asleep.
