Ephemeral Echoes

Chapter 2: The Night

Emily widened her eyes as he heard the guy said those words. She did not expect that, she was in the verge of saying that she wanted a one night stand with him, but he said it first. It looked like he could read what was on her mind but that was impossible though.

Emily stared at the guy's green eyes deeply. She did not move nor say anything, she was speechless while the guy was also staring at her waiting for her respond. For Emily, the noisy crowd became silent all of a sudden, it seemed like everyone left and the music stopped. She could not mind anyone anymore and felt like everyone were not there only the two of them, the guy who has green eyes and her. She gulped. And gulped again.

"Ye-yeah, sure, do you have a car with you? Mine was in... a repair shop," she admitted as soon as she could be able to open her mouth and utter words. Emily's voice was a it shaky she was silently hoping that the guy did not notice she shiever her voice tried to hide. "Yes, shall we?" He stood at the stoll bar and asked for her hands, Emily did not amazed by that sudden ask for a hand, she could not even count anymore how many guys she had a one night stand with, she had a lot of guys before, it started in college. But when she worked and became so busy her usual thing was cut.

Every guy he met for a one night stand were always gentleman. Soft for a couple of hours, asking for your hands, his hands on your waist, and the side rule thing, but a couple of second she got wreck, her head burried on the pillow trying to supress her loud noise, her back bend, and her hands gripped tightly on the bedsheet.

The guy tapped his friend's shoulder nonverbally saying that he will go first. His friend smirked and mouthed something Emily could not interpret. Emily held his hand that he was offering and stood, she immediately removed her hands from gripping his hands. The guy was the lead while they were walking towards the parking lot and Emily was at his back, she could not really deny the fact that even though that guy was wearing a black longsleeve and a black pants, she could see from within how masculine his body is.

The way he walks was so hot its giving her the sign that this guy would literally has no mercy on wrecking her, but she would just find out later. Emily squinted her eyes hard and slapped her forehead when she realized that she forgot to tell her friends. She grabbed her phone on her sling bag and messaged her friends, as soon as she sent the message she suddenly bumped the guys chest and her phone bumped onto her forehead.

"Aww!" she exclaimed and caressed her forehead. Emily could smell his perfume and it lingered through her spine, it gave her a goosebumps. She could not describe the scent it has but it was sweet but not too sweet, sweet and screamed masculinity at the same time, it also smelled like a little bit cinnamon, that was the first time she smelled something like that, and if she will ever come across with that scent again she will remember him first.

"I'm sorry, I was texting my friends," Emily apologized as she distanced herself a little bit from his chest while still caressing her forehead. She realized that moment that the guy was really tall, her height was at the same level as his chin. "Does it hurt?" He asked, he lifted her chin with his pointing finger to check her chin clearly. She was speechless when she met his green eyes again, those really bring her weakness.

"Uh....not really... where's your car?" Emily asked, the guy immediately pointed the car at their side. Emily raised a brow and dropped her jaw when she realized what kind of car it was. She licked her lips and gulped while staring at his car.

It was not just a car. Not a Lamborghini car, not a Porche, but an Aston Martin Valour in color green. Green as his eyes!

"Wow...." that was the only words she uttered while scanning her eyes through the car. "I bet that was not the only thing you are going to see, and not the only thing you're going to be amazed," he said confidently, Emily looked onto him again while her eyes were shinning due to amusement. That guy in front of him was not just rich or wealthy, he is the combination of rich and wealthy. The car he was using worth a million dollars.

But Emily realized what was the underlying message the guy said, "Really? Will you marry me?" She jokingly said that made him furrowed his forehead and smirked. "Ask me that again once we did our thing," he refused to answer and instead unlocked his car that created a noise. He opened the door for her and grabbed her by the waist, "Get in," he commanded.

"Feel good for me baby. Moan my name," he commanded as he was thrusting her back deeply but slowly. Emily, bended on her back, gripping on the pillow bit her neck but she could not hide the moans that had been trying to escape in her throat. The guy probably liked the way she screamed because as soon as he heard her moan loudly, he thrusted his hips faster, merciless, his bed almost wanted to collapsed but good thing it was made of a high quality material that made it bear how hard he thrust and how hard he could thrust.

"I know you liked that, Emily. Moan my name," she kept on saying things that made her turned on and made her screamed more. She squinted her eyes hard, she was tired already, but she was feeling good so he could not make him stop, she does not want to, and the guy would not want to either.

"Alex, Emily. Moan my name," earlier that evening Emily spilled her name while they were in the car on the way to his house, but the guy did not spill it yet and she did not even ask more she understood that the guy only just want a one night with her and was a private person, so no grudges or hate about it, she was used to it. She does not have any idea the name of some man he slepy with before.

"Alex... more.. I want more of you," she asked, that when started she got wrecked by him, all night. Emily did not know how many times she finished, and how many times Alex did or where he released it. That night was filled with ecstacy, he was right earlier about his words, his car was not the only would make her amazed. His body, his shaft, and the way he thrust made her amazed. For Emily, his body was perfection. He has biceps, not that big as what gym rat had, but his biceps were huge enough to make you feel its warmth and hardness for the rest of your life. He got abs as well, six packs, not that huge was it would make you crave for it as long as you're living and breathing. And his shaft...

The only word could Emily describe it is... perfection. It brought her to clouds, to heaven, and to happiness. It was her drug that night.

"Oh my f...." Emily tried to resist her cussed when she woke up and stried to stand up when she felt pain in her down there. She squinted her eyes and threw her head back. "That hurts... what the hell.. did we really had a great time last night?" She asked. She was still naked when she woke up but there was a thick comforter and she made that as her cover to her chest. Emily sat on Alex's bed, the guy was not around, but she could smell something outside.

While her down there was still in pain she let it calm first to lessen the pain and scanned her eyes inside his bedroom. His walls were a bit grey, while the ceilling was white and at the center there was a rectangular shaped horizontally and it was in color black. There were also a chandelier. The bed was white, floor was made of tiles it was black with a gold lining, and there was a small couch at the side of the bed.

"You're awake," a voice came from the door appeared and echoed in the room, she looked at it and saw Alex standing, leaning his shoulder on the wall. He was also holding a tray of food. "Hi," Emily greeted shyly and smiled a bit, Alex did the same and removed his smile immediately. He went closer to the bed and put the tray on it in front of Emily he also sat infront of him that made the lady became shy.

"How was it?" Alex questioned while they were eating, Emily was so hungry that was she got to finished hear bread and omellete quickly. "It was good, you are a good cook I can say," she complimented and that made him smile. "No, I meant the s*x," he cleared. Emily looked at his eyes directly and was speechless and did not know what to say.

"You don't have to answer it, I know it already," he jokingly said. Emily bit her lower lip slightly. "Uhh, Alex, I know we had an intimate night. I admit it was good, you're good, and I liked it," she paused when she saw Alex's expression. "Okay, I admit I loved it. But it was just a one night stand, I don't want to make everything complicated nor make it something more," Emily softly said. Alex furrowed his forehead and bit the omelette on his fork, "Yes, it was a one night stand, but I don't think it still is knowing you're here and you're eating with me.. on my house... on my bed,"

Emily squinted her eyes and pouted a bit. "I know and I know I should not stay here any longer. I have work to do," she said and grabbed her clothes and wear it one by one. "What's your work?" Alex curiously question. Emily stood up and grabbed her bag on the floor and checked if all of her belongings are there, "I think it is none of your business, Alex"

And just like that, she went outisde the room leaving Alex there. She left his huge house and tried to forgot what happened between them.
