Finishing my last year of college was tough. I had recently separated from my husband. He agreed to let me stay in his grandmother's old home for a few months while I finished up school. The place was old, but it would do for the next few months.
Eddie and I met at a mutual friend's house two years earlier. At the time, we had each recently come out of messy relationships. We seemed to have so much in common. It wasn't surprising to our friends when we announced our plans to be married only six months after meeting. He was one of those suit and tie guys. Always dressed to perfection before leaving the house, and he appeared to be a great catch. Not long after our marriage, I realized just how big of an ass he truly was. He constantly drank, stayed out late, he occasionally did illegal drugs, and he was so arrogant. He treated people horribly. We fought all the time about how he acted. This was stuff I refused to put up with. He refused to change his ways, and so, our marriage was over.
My final experience with Eddie started as just another one of those crappy nights. It was rainy, humid, and the A/C was out. I came in from my second shift job, drug the mattress and box springs across the living room floor, and closed off every other room in the house. I figured with one fan, this was my best bet for staying cool while I crammed for an early morning test. I put on my comfy bedtime attire, a short tank top and a skimpy pair of panties, and settled in. Around midnight, I shut off the lights and collapsed onto my 'top-sheet-only' bed.
About fifteen minutes passed when I heard keys jingling at the front door. I knew who it was and didn't bother getting up. It was raining hard outside, but I didn't care if the jerked got soaked to the bone. I did wonder why he was here. He had been staying with a friend since we'd separated.
He finally made it in the front door. I pretended not to hear him. I was tired and had an early class the next morning and I didn't feel like fighting tonight. He stumbled across the living room to my make-shift bed and sat down.
****
"Hey," he said.
"What do you want and why in the heck are you here?" I asked. I could smell alcohol on him. He wasn't drunk, but he'd been drinking. He was wearing his usual business attire, and his tie was hanging around his neck, untied.
"I want to apologize. I know that I've treated you unfairly and I want to apologize," he mumbled.
"Fine, please do it and leave. I have a test in the morning and I'm tired," I replied as I rolled over onto my back.
He stood up and took his tie from around his neck.
"Oh god," I thought to myself. "Here comes another one of his long, sobbing, I'm so sorry, please forgive me, fits."
Before I could finish that thought, he dropped his knees to the mattress and was straddling my waist. As I tried to sit up he grabbed my wrists and tied them together with his tie. By this point, I was pissed.
"What are you doing, you stupid jerk," I screamed. I could only see the outline of his face as the streetlights outside peeked in through the sheer curtains.
"I told you I wanted to apologize, and that's what intend to do," he boasted.
He immediately pulled my tank halfway over my head, exposing my breasts. He used one hand to secure my wrists over my head, and he restrained my lower body by resting his shins over my thighs. I fought for a few minutes, but as much as I hated him, and his selfish actions, I knew he was going to have his way with me. He began working my breasts with his free hand and his mouth - sucking one and caressing the other.
