《Even Better Together》chapter four

I'm so warm.
I try and push the covers off me when I realise there is something heavy weighing it down. More like there's a body holding it down. Wait. Where am I? Fuck! Where am I?!
I look around but all I can see is my clothes on a black chair in the corner and my bag on the floor.
I look down at the man at the side of me. I throw my hands up to cover my face and silently curse to myself.
What the fuck happened last night ...
I remember leaving the club with Hunter, we kissed and then I - Oh God! I asked to come home with him! A flashback hits me.
We make it back to his apartment, he pushes me against his wall, crashing his lips down on mine. His fingers tangle in my hair. I moan into his mouth, my fingers finding his shirt buttons and I push it down from his shoulders. His mouth leaving a trail of hot, wet kisses down my neck. He pulls off my top with one clean sweep and his hungry eyes latch onto my body.
"Are you sure you want this Sophia?" He asks me.
"Yes, Hunter, I want you." I whisper.
He grabs the backs of my thighs, and lifts me with ease as he carries me to his bedroom.
I remember my back hitting his bed as he pulled off the rest of my clothes and he followed, pulling down his trousers, leaving him stood in black boxers.
I lie on my back, wearing just my tiny black thong as Hunter crawls his body over me, knocking my legs apart with one of his knees. My gaze on him the entire time, waiting for his next move.
"Your so sexy." He moans into my ear as his fingertips brush over my erect nipples.
I let out a heavy breath and he takes my left nipple into his mouth and starts licking and sucking it. I arch my back from the pleasure and my hands find his hair, pulling at the roots.
He takes his time with my body, I've never experienced anything like this with another man. Maybe his age helps him, as he is definitely more experienced.
"Can I touch you Sophia?" He whispers in my ear, the loss of contact from his mouth making me open my eyes and look at his handsome face.
"Yes." I moan.
His hot mouth crashes down on my lips, sucking and biting my lower lip. His right hand comes between us as he leans his weight on his left arm, removing my underwear slowly and reaching his fingers over my clit so very gentle.
I gasp at the sensation of him finally touching me. He applies pressure and circles my throbbing core until I'm a panting mess underneath him. He buries his head into my neck and groans, feeling my wetness.
I am so turned on by this man, I can feel a warming sensation in my lower belly.
"Let go beautiful, come for me." Hunter breaths into my ear.
I scream with pleasure as an orgasm rips through me. Hunter kisses my cheek and leans over me to his bed side table, pulling out a condom.
"I want you Sophia, is this ok?" He holds the condom between his thumb and forefinger.
I nod.
"Words beautiful, I need words."
"Yes Hunter, fuck me."
He rips the condom packet open between his perfect teeth, pulls his boxers down and his huge erection pops out. I glance down over his body, trancing my fingertips over the tattoos on his muscular arms as he slides the condom down his throbbing cock.

He is big. Very big. He notices my wide eyes.
"It's okay Love, I'll go slow."
I feel his head at my entrance and I tense up.
"Relax Sophia." He whispers, leaving another trail of kisses from my lips, down my neck and towards my chest. He starts pushing into me as he bites down on my nipple. I gasp at him filling me up. He stills in me like he is adjusting to me, I start to move but Hunter moans out, "Sophia- please stop wriggling-"
I look up at him.
"I won't last long if you keep doing that baby."
I pull his head down for a kiss and he glides in and out of me. The pain of his size in me, now turning into pleasure.
"Yes Hunter!" I scream, which only encourages him to fuck me faster.
"Ohhh." I can feel my second orgasm about to explode. The way Hunter is treating my body, gripping onto me, our skin becoming slightly damp from the heat in the room, is something I have only read about in books.
"I'm going to come." Hunter breaths out, his actions getting sloppy just as my orgasm hits me.
A warm sensation covers my body at the thought of me and Hunter having sex last night. I can't believe I had a one night stand. Hunter seems like a great guy, but he obviously only wanted me for the night and he got me.
I shoot up out of the bed, looking back at Hunter, his broad back sprawled out facing the ceiling with the sheets just covering his lower half.
I need to get out of here.
I rush around the room, throwing on my clothes from last night and reach to grab my bag, which unluckily I pick up upside down and all my contents come falling out onto the ground. As I'm picking them up, Hunter starts to stir. I leave what I'm doing, grab my shit and I'm out of his door.
I ride the lift down to the lobby and a nice gentleman in a suit approaches me.
"Would you like a taxi calling Miss?" He asks.
"Uh- Y-Yes please." I reply, catching my eye in a mirror in the lobby, I run my hands through my wild hair. I must look like a hot mess. I don't even know what time it is.
"Sorry, do you have the time?"
"It's 8.12am Miss."
Shit. Shit. I have to get to the coffee shop for 9am for my shift as it's Thursday.
Just as I'm about to have a raging panic attack, a taxi pulls up outside the lobby doors, I dash outside thanking the butler who waves me off.
〰️〰️〰️
By some miracle, I made it to Aroma with 3 minutes to spare. After rushing into the apartment changing into my work uniform, which is just a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. I transfer all my contents from last night's bag to my backpack and set off walking.
"Your later than expected today darling." Jenny informs me as I walk into the back of the coffee shop and quickly put my belongings away.
"Sorry Jen, I had a late night." I answered.
I wasn't going to tell Jenny about my walk of shame moment that happened less than an hour ago.
I got straight to work and I'm grateful that 3pm came so quickly. I went into my backpack for my phone, except it wasn't there. Fuck, have I lost it somewhere? Have I left it at the club? I had no idea.

When I got home, Cassie was just getting ready to leave the apartment to go to her shift at the restaurant.
"Hey Cass, you haven't seen my phone have you?"
"No sorry babe. Although, I'm dying to know where you ended up last night, because it definitely wasn't in your bed." She questioned as she wiggled her eyebrows at me.
I groaned and covered my hands over my face.
"I went home the Hunter, the club owner guy." I mumbled.
"Yes! What was it like?! Did you have hot sex all night long?!" She asked.
"Cassie! It was just a one night thing. I'll probably never see him again"
"Well from the looks he was giving you, I think it was more than a one night stand he was after."
"No Cass. That's all it was okay. I'm not looking for anything more, remember?" I told her.
"Yes, yes, I know, you completely love your life and don't want it to change."
"Yep, that's right. Now, have you seen my phone? I think I might have lost it at the club?" I asked. I honestly don't know what came over me last night, or how I managed to lose my phone. It died, I remember that, as Hunter told me he text me but I didn't reply.
"Just go to the club before they open tonight and ask to see if your phone was handed in or something. Listen, I gotta go, don't wait up for me ok?"
"Yeah, will do Cass. See you later."
I waited until 9.30pm before heading to the club, it opened at 10pm so I didn't want to be stuck in the crowds.
As I walked up to the door, there was a really tall beefy guy stood at the entrance. I think I recognise him from that past couple of times we have been here.
"Not open yet love, come back later." He shouts at me.
"Hey, wait, no. I mean-"
"Listen, I'm not gonna let you in early so you can flirt your way up to VIP okay love, move along." He barked at me. This guy was a dick. He isn't even letting me explain. I need my phone back and I'm not leaving if it's in the club somewhere.
"Look, I was here last night, with Hunter, and I think I lost my phone here and I really need it back, so do you have like a lost property or something?" I asked him.
"Pulling the boss' name are ya now." He states and starts laughing at me.
He is such a dick.
"Can you just check lost property for my phone please?" I say bluntly.
"Fine."
He comes back not even 2 minutes later with nothing, saying there was a bag handed in last night but no phone.
That means only one thing, a realization dawns on me, it must be at Hunter's place.
〰️〰️〰️
The next morning, I wake up and take a longer shower than usual. I have my Yoga class in an hour then straight onto the coffee shop. I'm hoping I can somehow remember where Hunter lives so I can retrieve my phone.
I'm glad that today goes faster than I thought, I'm halfway though my shift at the coffee shop and it's not that busy today for a Friday afternoon. As I'm clearing one of the tables in the corner I turn around and walk straight into someone. I balance myself and pick up the mess I have made on the floor. I stand up and I'm frozen by those green eyes staring right at me.
Shit. Hunter is here, and he doesn't look happy to see me.
"Hey, I-"
Hunter cuts me off immediately by saying "Excuse me, I'm in a rush."
He turns and walks towards the counter to make his order. I catch up behind him, shocked by his cold attitude.
"Hunter-"
"Not now Sophia." He spits as he grabs his coffee cup and strides out of the door.
"Jen, I'll be right back" I shout, as Jenny nods in my direction. I spin around and head out the door.
"Hunter, wait!"
He completely ignores me and carries on walking towards his car.
"Hunter-"
"What! What do you want?! It isn't enough that you use me last night, what do you want Sophia, another fuck?"
Ouch. Maybe this wasn't the best idea. He is acting a complete dick. And what is he talking about, I used him?
"There's no need to be rude, a one night stand between 2 adults is ok, I was just going to ask you if I left my phone at your place? I seem to have lost it."
He doesn't respond.
"In what way did I make you think last night was a one night stand?" He asks.
"What?"
I'm confused. We drank, we danced, we kissed, we ended up back at his place and had sex. Why would he want anything more with me?
"Sophia, I-" he stops, shakes his head and looks straight at me.
"I was trying to be a nice guy, Sophia. I invited you to my club, we talked and got to know each other a bit, I thought the kiss we shared was great and I couldn't believe it when you were enjoying my company that much that you wanted to come back to my place. I wasn't expecting us to have sex, but your a gorgeous girl and you kept tracing your fingers over my tattoos, looking at me with those big, beautiful brown eyes, I thought I was dreaming when we ended up in bed together. I thought we both wanted each other Sophia, but imagine my disappointment when I woke up to an empty bed and your nowhere to be seen."
I blushed and dropped my head. He thinks I'm gorgeous? He was disappointed that I left? I didn't know what to say. He wanted more than a one night stand with me. He thought I was enjoying my company. I mean I was. He is the most attractive man I have laid eyes on and he wanted to see me the following morning?
Now I feel like a dick. I didn't realise my actions would have hurt him his much.
"I'm sorry. I didn't know what you were expecting, and I had work at 9am so I had to leave." I explained.
"Look, I'm sorry too, I just, I'm just not very good at saying what I want, especially when I thought I made myself clear that I was into you." He smiles.
"Well how about we start over?" I offer. I really don't want him to think I used him and I did have a great time with him, I'm just not looking for anything at the moment.
"We don't need to do that. I want to remember our night together. What time do you finish work?"
"Not until 3pm".
"Okay, and what about if I come pick you up at 3pm, and we can go look for your phone at my penthouse?" He asks, scratching the side of his neck, which I have now realised is a nervous trait he has.
"Sounds good." I smile.
I step back inside the coffee shop and Jenny just smiles at me. I laugh to myself. I have no idea what just happened but I can't wait until 3pm now.
