WAKE ME UP WHEN IT'S DECEMBER

THE THING ALDRICH, CANNOT RESIST

Lila hesitated. Then she shifted, her movements changing, her approach less tender and more confident. Not rough. Not bold. Just some kind of different touch, with a shift of energy that takes him away from bad memories. Her hands slid up his arms with graceful pressure, grounding him. Her lips brushed the side of his neck... slower, warmer, and intentional. But it's not Hanna’s way.

As if the room stopped spinning, when Aldrich finally exhaled.

Lila smiled while sensing his skin lowering. She leaned in just enough for her hair to fall against his chest, her voice was a soft hum.

“You don’t have to forget her,” she murmured. “And you don’t have to bleed for her tonight.”

Aldrich’s fingers tangled weakly in the fabric of her dress as his head dropped against her shoulder. He didn’t kiss her. He didn’t speak. He just breathed...

Lila wrapped her arms around him, creating a warm, and comfort zone that went beyond simple physical attraction. That embrace was not driven by desire or longing, rather, it functioned as a haven from the chaos of his outside world. He was able to temporarily forget his worried heart and thoughts, thanks to her firm yet soft touch, which was a tacit assurance of safety and quiet. It was like turning into a sanctuary where they could both find solace from their personal struggles. A deep sensation of healing connection was created by the regular rise and fall of their breaths and the smoothness of her skin against his.

Then he remembered Hanna with every heartbeat. He allowed himself to breathe deeply with each touch from her. Eventually, his exhaustion overtook the alcohol. The reason that his eyes fluttered, losing his grip, and his head drooped against her.

"Lost in thought." Aldrich whispered. He had Lila so fast she didn't notice, couples in the bar enjoy making it publicly, with the fact that Lila's mind is the Kay to all. mind was present "on the go" for him. Her willingness is the key.

Aldrich placed his hand on her chest as he moved it slowly down and whispered in her ears. "What are you thinking about?" He just could not longer wait for her to do something pleasure for him.

Lila felt like a Jolt of electricity passed from him to her. Her heart started to beat fast. She didn't know if it was as a result of desire, fear, or Inquisition.

She became a quivering mess as she threw her head back so her lips touched his neck.

Aldrich kissed her cheeks holding her close to him his hands around her neck. He sent a trail of kisses from her cheek down to her lips. His kiss was demanding, passionate and savouring. He was demanding for her submission and she was more than willing to give it to him. Lila's mouth parted to give him entrance.

His tongue grazed the corner of her lips teasing her. She mourned into his mouth squirming. If he tried to make love to her then, and there she wouldn't and couldn't resist.

Lila's moan sent Aldrich to the end of it all. His tongue found its way into her mouth as he sucked on her bottom lip.

"Aldrich! oh my Gosh!" she moaned.

He hadn’t even laid a finger on her yet, but she could already feel the waves of pleasure building up inside her. His kisses were nothing short of intoxicating, sending her senses into a whirlwind and leaving her utterly speechless. But deep down, she knew something was off, this whole situation felt wrong.

In any other scenario, she might have brushed aside the potential fallout. Yet, one nagging question lingered in her mind. "What the hell is going on?"

Lila tried so hard to steady her breath but with him still near her it was almost impossible. She could feel every hair on her skin stand as goosebumps decorated her skin evenly. Her breath came out in hushed whispers as her insides tightened with the proximity of his closeness. He was so close, so near so damning cold she shivered.

"I want you so damn much." Aldrich moaned in her mouth giving her time to breathe. She almost started to hyperventilate, her eyes pricked with incoming tears of confusion and weakness. He was making her weak and she hated every damn second of it and loved it with equal propensity.

Lila's hands were eager to touch him. She could feel the pull of his presence deep within her, a magnetic force that made her body craved for him. Yet, her mind was at odds with her desires. While her heart and mind recognized the truth of her feelings, she couldn't act on this because, having him so close was shattering all her defenses.

Aldrich moved away from her, stepping a few inches back because he could see the struggle on her face. He didn't want to. But he wanted these fantasies to happen.

Lila really needed him to back off, and he had made a promise to himself not to get too close. She was only doing this to help him feel more at ease and relaxed.

Back then, Aldrich held onto a single hope, the hope that he could finally start moving on from his pain. Now that she was by his side, he felt like she could provide what his girlfriend couldn’t give at the moment. After all those long hours of waiting, the last thing he wanted was to jeopardize his chances with her.

Their eyes were glued together both refusing to look away from the other. They were drawn together by whatever force that had pushed them.

Lila took deep breaths her mouth parted, she was scared that he could lick her lips, afraid he would taste her and then want more.

She stood up after she had filled her lungs with much needed air. "I.. Can't. I've never. This is not right." She stuttered. She tried to move past him but he wouldn't have that.

Aldrich reached out, grabbing her arms and stopping her in her tracks. The way his hands enveloped hers brought back memories of when he had held Hanna's legs. He pulled her close, preventing her from walking away.

But now Lila could have fought back, she knew she should. Yet, somehow, her body seemed listening to his silent commands to obey, and soon enough, her mind felt utterly helpless. Her back was turned to him, as he didn't want to let her go.

"Don't leave now please." Aldrich begged. His voice although powerful was laced with so much plea.

His plea was so soft and genuine it sent Lila's heart racing and her mind shut down. She could no longer serve him if things were gonna happen to the limit.

"We can't do this, this is not part of our contract" Lila said, either that's what her heart or her mind can do. But her heart was indeed stronger.

"No. Just... help me think of it now.. I just wanted you now... Please let me..." Aldrich leaned in close and whispered. As he began to brush against her front, he pointed out her soft bra, and together they let out their wildest moans.
