Just What I Needed

Chapter 5

Lola.

Spread your legs for me.

I briefly close my eyes, taking in a deep breath. My skin heats up, and my heart begins to speed up, so fast it almost sounds like it's palpitating right at my ears. There's an ache at my core and can't help but to clench my legs, once and then twice.

Suck.

I swallow feeling my throat dry and lick my lips slowly, remembering his finger in my mouth. I take another deep breath and release it.

"If you're nervous about the date don't be," Cara says, bringing me out of my daze. My lust filled daze.

"Huh?"

"You look," She tilts her head to the side, studying my face like she always does. "Sorta hot. You feeling okay?"

"Oh," My eyes widened for a second, but I quickly hide my expression. "Yeah, just a little nervous. Since it's a surprise and I don't know where we're going or doing."

It's not entirely a lie, but it's not entirely the truth.

Her lips flatten into a line and she narrows her eyes, and stares at me with a scrutinizing gaze. I guess not quick enough.

"Daisy! Ally! Come here!" The line on her lips begins to curve upwards as she crosses her arms against her chest.

Daisy and Ally saunter into my room with sleep all over their faces. Ally let's herself fall on my bed while Daisy sits next to me and lays her head on my shoulder. Cara sits next to Ally but doesn't lay.

"Lola didn't tell us everything about her date last night." Her eyebrows arched and the grin on her face deepened as she stared at me with a gotcha look.

This gets Ally and Daisy to both perk up, the sleep pretty much diminished from their faces. All their eyes staring directly at me.

"I knew it!" Daisy sits up and repositions her body so it's facing me.

"I knew you weren't as innocent as you looked. Tell us how it was?" Daisy beamed eagerly waiting for the details of what didn't happen, or sorta happened.

"I don't look that innocent."

"Oh you do." Ally chuckles, glancing at Cara and Daisy who nod in agreement.

"But don't change the conversation." Cara pulls the duvet to her laps and stares at me with a knowing smile.

"We didn't do it." I think closely about what I want to say.

So much stuff happened but didn't really happen. I did something I'd never thought I'd do. I thought that the thing that did with him would finally kick in, and I would realize what I did was bad.

The thing is, it hasn't, and if anything want to do it again.

"So what did you do?" Ally leans in forward beaming with excitement.

Unlike the girls I was never the one to give details or really talk about s*x. It's not that I don't trust them or feel weird about it. Considering they always tell me about their hookups and in full detail.

Especially Daisy, she was the master of hookups and could pretty much teach a guy, or girl how to get the best s****l experience.

But the thing was there was never really anything for me to say.

Matt and I had s*x a lot of times but it wasn't nothing ever wild, like the girls stories or anything good worth telling. But thinking about last night, makes my body hot and my core ache with need.

"He fingered me in the theater."

The girls stare at me with a stunned silence. Until they break out into investigators asking questions left and right, and it's almost hard to hear them through the squealing.

"Theater?"

"At the museum movie theater?"

"In the actual theater?"

"With actual people around?"

"He fingered you in public?"

"Did he get you off?"

"Was he good?"

I lifted the duvet cover and covered my scorching hot face, but it did nothing to stop them from pulling it back.

They stared at me, waiting for answers that I wasn't sure how to give.

"I don't know what to say." I sheepishly say with a shrug looking down at the duvet.

"The details." Daisy exasperatedly says.

I bite my bottom lip and twist my lips to the side. Unsure of how to start.

"It was halfway through the movie," I began. "I laid his hand on top of mine and- well I'm sure you all know how the rest goes."

I know the girls don't mind sharing every single detail about their s*x life, but even if I wasn't going to see TJ again after today I wanted to keep most of it between us.

Suck.

"But was he good? Did he get you off?"

"Yeah." I nod, biting back my smile.

"What did I say! I told you they had done something." Daisy grinned from ear to ear and looked at Ally and Cara with an I-told-you face. "I knew something was off about you yesterday. You were practically giving off the I-just-had-an-orgasm vibe."

"I can't believe the Louise Larson had public display of s****l acts." Cara laughed and shook her head, as if the thought was something she couldn't imagine.

Trust me, neither could I.

"What did I tell you!" Daisy smiled smugly at Cara and Ally. "Dirty little slore." She stared at me and winked.

I laughed at Daisy's comment, feeling a little relieved. I knew they wouldn't judge me, but still, I just got out of a two year relationship, and I'm dating a random guy who I hardly know and doing things never did with Matt.

"You guys don't think this is wrong?" I pulled the pillow from behind me and began to play with the corners of it. "I did, just get out of a relationship. Shouldn't I be-"

"Living your best life." Cara cut me off.

"You just spent two years with a guy who didn't deserve you, and now some other guy is doing what he never did." Ally said.

"And this is an opportunity you shouldn't waste. Even if you're not going to see him again." Daisy says, giving me a pointed stare. "Make the best of it because who the hell knows when something like this will ever happen again."

"And TJ being tall and attractive is just a bonus." Cara adds.

"God he's so tall and those curls." Ally sighs with a dreamy look in her eyes.

They were right, his attractiveness was just an add on bonus. And his cocky confidence was a slight turn on, if I'm being honest with myself.

"Anyways now you guys know I'm not as innocent as I look." I stand from my bed and stretch my arms out. I pick my phone up from my night stand, and my eyes almost pop out of their socket. "It's late." I yelled, running to the bathroom.

I don't know how punctual TJ is, but I'd already been late before, and this time, TJ was picking me up since he hadn't told me where the surprise was. All he said was wear something to swim in, and bring a change of clothes, something casual.

To say I was stressed out was an understatement. You don't just tell a girl to wear something casual. In guy language that could be a pair of shirts and tee shirt, but for a girl the possibilities were endless.

Maybe I was being a tad over dramatic and I was overthinking it all, but then again who wouldn't?

Thankfully as soon as I told the girls last night, they got right to work. It's not that I don't know how to dress myself, but I'm really not the best at it.

Now Cara, she was the expert and knew how to make any outfit work.

I quickly put on the two piece bikini Daisy let me borrow. It was a little more cheekier than I'm used to, but it was cute, and if I'm already getting out of my comfort zone then I might as well wear this.

I gave myself a once over in the mirror content with how well the two piece floral bikini fit me.

I loved the orange, blood orange, and yellow flowers on it, and it complimented my tan skin and hair. And not to mention it made my boobs look good, really good.

I grabbed the white oversized button down Cara let me borrow, rolled up the sleeves, buttoned a few of the buttons, and put on my light brown sandals.

With another once and over, I smile and walk out.

The girls are still sitting and laying on my bed chatting away and stop when I come out.

"Don't you look lovely?" Ally sat up, bringing her legs up to her chest.

"All thanks to you guys," I say as I look down at my phone."Alright, I gotta go. "Love you guys."

"Love you!" I hear them yell as I walk out of the room and head over to the front door.

I pick up my bag with my clothes for later and run out the door.

"Hold the door!" I yell out as I watch it almost close, but thankfully the person extends their hand out and the door slides back open. "Oh, tha-thanks."

The two people I didn't want to see are now right in front of me. Thankfully, the ride would probably only last thirty seconds, but unfortunately, it felt like forever.

We stood there in silence, but I didn't miss the stupid smug ass grin on Emily's face, as she wrapped an arm around him.

I can't believe I was really once her friend.

The door pinged, and before I stepped out, I turned around and looked Emily straight in the eyes. She held her chin up triumphantly and looked at me as if she was better than me.

"While you were going down on him, he was coming back to me." I watched the stupid smile drop from her face, and she walked away.

Sometimes you just have to be the bigger person, but today wasn't going to be one of those days.

I made my way out of the lobby and into the front of the hotel. Sure enough, TJ was already there waiting in a black sleek Mercedes. I don't have a clue what make or model it was, but it's not like it mattered anyway, because it looked expensive and I could probably use the money that was used on that car for school.

Some people really do have it made.

I quickly made my way towards his car and opened the door and got in.

"Peaches," He smiled and put his phone in his cup holder.

I smiled, laying my bag on the floor and putting on my seatbelt.

"You know," he said, his brow furrowed.We've been dating for a while now, and you don't have a cute nickname for me. I'm actually hurt. "

I laugh, considering we've only been dating for four days, but I guess in the short time we have together, that is a lot.

I think hard for a second, staring intently into his eyes until it hits me. "Hey, honey," I grin.

"Honey?" His brows pull closer together in confusion.

"Your eyes, they're the color of honey, so sweet and warm."

"Alright then, I'll take it." His lips stretched out into a bright, beaming smile. "Ready to be surprised?"

"Ready and a little nervous." I admit, tucking a strand of hair behind my ear.

"I promise you're going to love it." He tenderly cups my cheek and rubs it with his thumb.

"All right," I let out a small breath. "Oh, before I forget." I bend down and dig through my bag until I finally find what I'm looking for. "Here."

"You got me something?" His eyebrows raise in shock as he takes the small blue bag from my hand.

"It's nothing big, but I thought if you're going to be hard to forget, why shouldn't I?" I joke, sorta.

He chuckles as he pulls out the brown leather bracelet I had engraved with the time of my birth and his nickname for me, Peaches.

"Just a reminder so you don't forget who's older." I smirk.

"I've had a lot of great gifts, but let me tell you something, this tops them all." He smiles down at the bracelet and looks back at me. "Thanks." He leans forwards and places a small, tender kiss on my cheek.

"I'd put it on now, but-well, you'll see once we get there." He says, placing the bracelet back on the bag, and opens a small compartment in his car and places it in there.

"So you're still not going to tell me?" I ask.

"Nope." He shakes his head. "Oh, before we leave, you have to wear this." TJ holds out a black silky looking blindfold.

I give him a skeptical look, but all he does is chuckle.

"If I don't blindfold you, it will ruin the element of surprise."

"And they never saw her again." I say eerily.

"What?"

"The poor naive girl thought she was having a nice date with the rich boy who promised her the world, and then bam! They find her body in the ocean or what's left of it."

TJ breaks out into a fit of laughter, staring at me as if I've said the most bizarre thing.

"I'm glad you find this amusing." I roll my eyes, but I can't help the stupid smile that's threatening to break away from my lips.

"You know," he said after he calmed his laughter down. "There are many ways I'd use this blindfold. I think you'd be better used to me if you were alive and willing. " He arched his brow.

"I guess keep me alive and find out." I smiled teasingly, feeling an ease in my chest.

Maybe I was being over dramatic, but I've watched everything there is on the ID channel, so I know how all of that goes. And for the most part, my parents always kept me so sheltered. Never wants me to go to sleepovers or the movies with my friends. And if I did ever go out, they called me at least fifteen times. I was still shocked that they let me cheer, considering how short the skirts were and let me come to Miami.

And now for the first time they let me go out and be eight hundred miles from them, and I'm dating a boy I know nothing about and getting fingered in an art museum.

Ted Bundy would have loved me.

"I promise you're going to love this surprise." TJ said, tucking a strand of hair behind my ear. "Trust me.

"Okay." I nod, smiling.

I go to take the blindfold from him, but he pulls it away.

"Let me."

I roll my eyes and turn around so my back is facing him, and smile as I hear him shuffle and lean in close to me.

The last thing I see is TJ's reflection in the window and then complete darkness.

"That's not too tight, is it?" I hear his voice right next to my ear.

"That's not too tight, is it?" I hear his voice right next to my ear.

"No," I say, shaking my head.

"Good," he says in a low voice.

I turn around, but I never feel him back away. I turn my head, and I think it's facing his. I'm not too sure, but I reach my hand out for his, and his hand isn't what mine comes in contact with.

"Enjoying yourself there?" "He said with playfulness in his voice.

"I-" I pull my hand back, feeling my cheeks heat up. "I was trying to grab your hand."

"Sure." he cooly says with a hint of tease in his voice.

I could just mentally see the stupid smug grin on his face.

TJ picks up my wrist, wrapping his hand around it and with the other intertwining his fingers with mine. He doesn't say anything, and for a moment, I'm not sure what he's doing until I hear him begin to drive.

For the rest of the car, we both stay silent while the music plays. The music does nothing to draw out the memories of last night from my head. And it doesn't help that his fingers keep sliding up and down the inside of my thigh. I contemplate spreading my legs and seeing what he'd do, but I refrain from it.

"We're here." I heard him say and open his door and then shut it.

I'm not sure how long this car ride was, but it didn't seem too long. Or at least I don't think it was.

My door is pulled open, and TJ takes my hand and slowly guides me out of the car.

"So is this where I beg for you to let me go before you decide to trick me and actually let me go and then you kill me?" I jokingly say that my heart is racing a thousand miles per hour and my palms have become sweaty.

"There's only one thing right about that little scenario." He says and begins to pull on my hand.

"And what's that?"

TJ comes to a stop and stops along with him. I felt him lean closer to me, feeling his warm breath against the shell of my ear and his minty breath and intoxicating scent filling my nose. "Where you beg," he says, and then presses a kiss to my cheek.

Suck

I swallow, a need awakening all over my body and small goosebumps spreading from the top of my spine to the rest of my body.

He begins to pull me forward until he brings me to a complete stop and releases his hold on my hand.

I'm not sure exactly where he is until I feel TJ's warmth radiate into my back as he stands close behind me. His fingers trail up and down my arm while he uses the other to tuck my hair behind my ear.

I'm not sure what he's doing until I feel his warm breath against the shell of my ear. "Just never forget me." He whispers softly in my ear.

"Only if you never forget me." I whispered back.

"I don't think that will be possible." He says as he unties the blindfold and pulls it away from my face.

"Surprise!" The girls yell out from a boat.

"How did you guys- when- how?" I stared at them, dumbfounded.

They all get off the boat and walk towards me. I look over my shoulder and TJ is standing back with a few of his friends, looking at me.

"Long story short, because it's too hot to be standing here," Daisy says. "The day at the skating rink, TJ came up to us and told us about the surprise. And now we're here. "

"So you guys knew all along?"

"Yeah," they nod, all with excited smiles.

"Alright," TJ says, coming to stand behind me. "Now for the real surprise, we're going snorkeling."

"Wait, really?" I do my best to cool down my excitement, and most importantly, not jump like a freakin' child.

"Yes, are you surprised?"

I turn around, doing my best to hide the bubbles of excitement that are trying to burst out of me.

I don't know why, and don't understand why he would do this for me. I'm just a random girl, and he's a guy that, by the looks of it, could have any girl.

I get on my tiptoes and wrap my arms around his neck, pulling him down for a kiss.

"I don't know why you would do this for me, but thank you." I pressed another kiss to his lips and let go.

"Peaches, I told you I'd make sure I was unforgettable," he winked.

"Mission accomplished." I pulled him in for another hug, to which he just chuckled and hugged me back.

"All right, love birds," Blake said as he clapped his hands to get our attention."Glad you two are making the best of whatever that is, but we gotta go. We're baking out here. "

"OK," TJ said, rolling his eyes but smiling."Let's go."

Blake and the three other guys, whom I recognized from when we were invited to the party, got on the boat, and then so did the girls.

Once we were all on the boat, the person driving it took us to what seemed like an island.

We met a man who showed us the basics of snorkeling, and once we all got our masks, we got on another boat and we were off.

I couldn't contain the excitement that was surging through my body as I stared off into the dark blue ocean.

Everything was pure perfection, and the fact that my friends were here made things ten times better. It was also a bonus that TJ brought his friends because it made the trip much more entertaining and the girls were enjoying them. I was also thankful they weren't assholes. A bit snobbish, yes. but nothing that was obnoxiously annoying.

"Ready?" TJ stood behind me, wrapping his arms around my shoulders and pressing me against his chest.

I'd come to learn a thing about TJ and I. TJ loved to stand behind me, pressing me against him, and I loved how he had me against him, holding me as if he never wanted to go.

"Ready." I smiled, putting on my mask as the boat came to a stop. I turned around in his hold, his hands coming down to my waist.

He smiled down at me, pressing a soft kiss on my forehead, and let go to put his mask on.

One by one, we all got off the boat and into the water.

Surprisingly, it was warm and not as dark as it looked when we were on the boat.

It didn't take long for everyone to go under and swim away from the boat. I had yet to do it, just enjoying and basking in the surroundings around me.

This moment right here just felt so surreal and it was something I never wanted to end.

"Come on, Peaches." TJ took a hold of my hand and began to guide me under. I followed his lead. Eventually, I let go of his hand and began swimming around, making sure I wasn't touching any fish or the reef like the guide had instructed.

We all swam for what felt like hours, and in the moment, I really wish I had thought of bringing a GoPro or something to take in every minute of the moment.

But all I could do was paint the moment in my mind, and I hoped it never washed away because this was something I'd never want to forget.
