NEW STORY by ME!!

Let me know what you think


-------------------------------------------


The corridor is dark, with a musty smell of old cologne and 3am bar close. I'm walking down through the blackness, dressed in a pencil skirt, and white button down shirt, unbuttoned just enough to see a peek of femininity. Hair pinned back in a bun, i feel uptight, needing to let loose.

I hear a noise coming from a room, as the floor beneath me rises and falls with the ocean waves. A sparse light beyond the crack in the door catches my eye and i see two men, cornering another in a threatening manner. I listen in, waiting in the darkness. "If you don't come up with the money, we'll make you disappear, you hear me? Am i making myself clear?"

The intimidating men move closer to the cowaring shadow in the corner. Out of the darkness i hear a shot, i turn and run, my heels clicking in the silence. I know i've been heard, i know trouble is coming.

Back down the hallway, i turn right, then left into a darker area that looks like the Galley of the ship, employee only door to the left, cove to the right with a curtain hanging off the rail in places.

There is no where to hide, i know if i'm found alone, i'm dead.

I see a shadow coming from the opposite direction from where i ran. You walk around the corner, looking lost. I see the stethoscope glinting, the dark pressed slacks, the blue striped button down shirt, at first my jaw drops in awe of you, then i realise you are walking in the direction of the gun shot and the awe turns to fear.

I walk closer, open my mouth to tell you "no...don't go that way" and all i can say is "no....", before i hear footsteps running down the hallway behind me.

I grab you, push you into the cove with the faulty curtain, knowing we will be seen but i have to distract from what i've seen and make a decision. I've seen it in the movies, the hard, passionate 'false' kiss that deters the 'bad men' and lies to others eyes making them believe you are two naughty adults have a spontaneous moment in the dark...hot and sweaty.

I must make it believable.

Just before the guy runs around the corner, gun drawn, i manage to whisper in your ear "He's got a gun", then i take your ear between my teeth and grab your hair.

I can feel eyes on us, i'm kissing you hard, so hard our breathing gets restricted and my hands pulling at your head and hair, closer to me, pushing you lips hard against mine.

I hear a click, the trigger has been cocked, we're not fooling anyone, i get scared, start to shake and take the next step.

I grab your belt and pull it free. Your hands have been placed on my chest, your mouth buried in my neck, i can smell your cologne and my legs, shaking with fear, are now shaking with something else.

With my hand tracing down from your stomach, you moan and i don't even know your name but I want to scream it.

I hear him backing away, trying to be silent. Another click and he is gone. I think we are safe.

You whisper a thank you into my ear, your breath hot and heavy. I back away to check we are alone. The darkness has been restored, the quiet 4AM ocean white noise can be heard below.

Though my relief has come swiftly i'm still shaking, still breathy and my heart won't quit in my legs. I look to you. Though i didn't see your face before, i felt it, on every inch of my neck and my face. My upper lip slightly burning from the slight shadow on your chin.

It's not over, the threat is, but i'm not, i can't walk away, i feel you on my lips again and with my fingers digging into your shoulder blades you pull me back into the hallway.

The wind gets knocked out of me when my back hits the wall, i want you as close to me as possible and i tear the buttons off your shirt, not apologising, never faultering.

I'm getting hot, my skirt gets torn in the back when you pick me up and wrap my legs around you. I feel your stethoscope between my breasts pressing against your chest. I grab it, pull it from your neck but you snatch it form me an tie my wrists with it above my head.

I feel you inside me, breathing with me, moving in unison. I feel my legs tremble, my body shake, i scream "fuck, oh fuck!"..... you know what you are doing.

Faster my chest moves, you have my wrists in one hand pinned against the wall. I feel your grip tighten, your breath loosen, your legs go stiff, you bury your face in my neck and slowly bring me down from your waist.

With our clothes in shambles, my hair down and gripped between my tied hands, your lips still on mine, you slowly let me loose from my binds...

You look at me...

Then the only thing left of you is the smell on my skin.

I still don't know your name.....
