Strange Addiction

3. Like a crowd

Sabrina

We walked in silence for a while and by the time I looked back to see where we were, the grocery store was out of sight already. I began to have a mild internal panic as I started to question my sanity and my decision to just follow a random man to only lord knew where just because he was handsome. I didn’t even know his name.

I looked at our hands that were still together and I looked at him too abruptly but he just smiled before looking down at me too. There was a significant difference in our heights.

“You’re probably wondering if you did a wise thing by following me on a walk right?” he asked and I dramatically gasped while covering my mouth with my other hand that he wasn’t holding.

“How did you know that? Are you a serial killer?” I asked him playfully even though I was also praying earnestly that he wouldn’t confirm my thoughts and he laughed out loud.

Suddenly, he pulled me into a dark corner and I gasped in shock before I finally got used to the darkness and I calmed myself down. I looked at him where he stood before me and he smiled.

“You’re funny Sabrina,” he said and I pouted.

‘It was a valid question, I had to ask for my safety” I defended and he chuckled this time. He looked so good.

“Well, if it would make you feel safe, I am not a serial killer Sabrina,” he said and I scoffed at him before smirking.

“I knew that, I was just playing around,” I said and he took a step closer to me while I inched back.

“Are you sure? I’m not so safe to be with either” he said in a low voice and I felt a shiver run down my spine from his voice. This man was awakening my desires the more.

He took another step toward me and I inched further away again. My back touched the wall so there was nowhere to go and I didn’t stop him when he came so close to me that I could feel our bodies touching.

“What do you mean?” I asked him after gulping and I realized that my voice had gotten lower too. I heard a low growl in his throat as he dragged in the scent in my hair and I closed my eyes to bask in the sound he was making.

“All I’m thinking of doing to you right now Sabrina, is to kiss you until your lips feel numb,” he said and I felt my heart begin to race again in excitement… but I also wanted to confirm something.

“What drew me to you? Or are you just doing this because I approached you first?” I asked him and he placed a forefinger under my chin before making me look up at him.

“I was there when you walked into the store and I caught the scent of your hair, I watched the way your hips swayed when you walked and how your hair went from side to side as you looked from stall to stall for what you wanted to buy. That was I was drawn to you” he explained and I was unable to say anything for a while.

“Then why didn't you do anything?” I asked him and he shrugged.

“If you hadn’t bumped into me then, I would have followed you to speak to you” he replied and I felt glee spread through my chest to know that I wasn’t the only one who felt the attraction between us.

He gently tucked my hair behind my ear and I looked at him.

His hand felt so soft against my skin and I didn’t want him to stop. He tried to pull his hand away but I held his hand immediately.

“Don’t stop” I pleaded and he smiled before he continued touching my hair and I moaned out in satisfaction.

“Besides, I haven’t seen you around here before. You seem new” he said and I nodded.

“I just moved here” I replied and he hummed in reply.

“How old are you?” he suddenly asked me and I met his piercing gaze while wondering why he was suddenly curious about my age.

“Why’re you interested in that?” I asked him and he shrugged.

“I’m just curious,” he asked and I sighed. I couldn’t tell him I was just seventeen because I knew he wouldn’t go further than this with me so I decided to lie about it… as long as I could have him.

“I’m twenty one” I replied and I was about to make a remark about him being curious about my age when his lips suddenly met with mine, making me swallow my words.

He dragged in my lower lip and he gently bit on it while I moaned against his lips as he kissed me rough and hard and he growled in response before he placed his hand on my hip and ran his palm over continuously but I wasn’t satisfied. I raised my dress and I guided his hand to touch my skin and I felt my lower belly erupt in sheer want for more. The desire was getting stronger but we couldn’t do more than this because we were outside and anyone could see us at any moment.

Suddenly he groped my ass and I moaned louder since I liked it.

“You’re so damn sexy Sabrina” he whispered in my ear and I held him by his collar to meet my gaze.

“Say that again,” I told him and he smirked before he gave me a brief kiss on my lips then he looked at me. “You’re so damn sexy Sabrina that I just want to f**k you so hard right now but I can’t,” he said and I pulled him back for another round of kisses.

We used our tongues this time and he didn’t taste like anything but he was still sweet and addictive still. We didn't want to stop. It was obvious that we didn’t want the moment to end too and we wanted more than we could get at that moment so we were making up for it by kissing for as long and hard as we wanted.

He moved his lips from mine to my neck and he sucked gently on my collarbone while I dipped my fingers into his long locks and they were unbelievably soft that I began to wonder if there was anything about him that wasn’t perfect.

He stopped sucking on my collarbone and he looked at me while I met his eyes too. There was a flame in them and I wished that I could be the one to quench them but it was impossible because I knew that we would have to end it there in the dark alley.

He ran his thumb over my lip and we smiled at each other at the same time.

“What are you doing to me Sabrina?” he asked me and the mood between us shifted as we kept staring and soon, we could hear our breathing as our chests rose and fell on and on. The atmosphere was getting heated again and I licked my now dry lips then I heard him hiss before he caressed my lower lip with his thumb again.

“I just met you but I just want to keep on kissing you regardless. Is it weird?” he asked me and I shook my head in response before I spoke.

“I should be the one saying that because I also don’t want to stop kissing you too” I confessed too and he gave me a bright smile that threatened to melt my heart again.

************

I slumped in my bed once I had gotten home, placed the things I bought in the refrigerator, and changed into my nightdress. I didn’t meet Martha when I returned and when I peeped into her bedroom, she was already asleep. I smiled to myself as I remembered my mysterious man and I slowly ran my finger across my lips to reminisce about the kiss I had with him.

It wasn’t my first kiss but it was definitely the best I had had so far because he was the first older man I had kissed and I had to admit that he kissed better than boys my age. I could tell how experienced he was from the way he kissed me and I also couldn’t help but wonder if I would see him again.

Maybe I would or maybe I wouldn’t, but I hoped that I would because I was curious about him and I hoped that maybe he would tell me his name the next time we met.

TWO MONTHS LATER….

I didn’t see him again after that night and I began to wonder if I made out with a ghost. I still hadn’t made any friends because I still didn't see anyone my age then I found out that they were away for a general school activity and would resume days before the resumption so I decided to try and make a friend in school.

The day to resume finally came and I put on my uniform before I went out and had a quick breakfast with Martha then I walked to school since it wasn’t far away and soon, I arrived at the school.

It was already filled with students and I took in a deep breath after taking in the sight before I walked into the hallway, heading for my class.

I found it easily and I was about to take my seat when a girl walked in after me and she looked confused.

“Um, excuse me, is this the music class?” she asked and I nodded with a smile so she became relaxed and sat beside me.

“Hi, I’m Rosie Benson and I just transferred here. Nice to meet you” she said and I grinned.

“I’m Sabrina Brook and I’m also a transfer student” I replied and her smile grew wider on hearing that I was also a new student in our year.

“I guess I’ve made my friend already then,” she said more to herself before she went on to tell me that her mum got remarried so they had to move then she asked me why I transferred and I chuckled nervously before I replied and told her I lost my mum and had to live with my aunt now until I was done with my final year in high school.

The look of shock on her face was epic and I almost burst into laughter but people began to flood into the class while talking to each other and we busied ourselves with bringing our books out.

The teacher entered at that moment and his voice seemed familiar as he told us to quiet down and bring our books out. I looked up and I almost puked the toast and orange juice I had for breakfast when I saw my new music teacher was my mysterious man that I had a heated makeout with two months ago.

I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw him. That was the guy that I had kissed on that fateful night months ago and here he was, introducing himself as my teacher… what the hell had I gotten myself into?

“So we have two new students with us and they are going to introduce themselves now” he began to speak and Rosie stood up first before I followed slowly since I was still in shock and our eyes finally met. Recognition settled in his eyes immediately he saw me and he looked utterly shocked and surprised to me in his class as we stared at each other like we did the first time that we met… I lied to him that I was twenty-one! So of course, he would be taken aback to find out I was just a high schooler that looked a bit older than her age.

Again, what the hell had I gotten myself into?
