Final Fantasy
Bzzt, bzzt.
The cell phone vibrated atop the nightstand, the screen coming to life with a brilliant white glow that pierced the darkness of the room. Even the heavy wind pouring out of the fan from across the way couldn't drown out the whimsical chime signaling an incoming text message, the alert rousing me from a state of half sleep that I found myself in once again. I rolled over and scooped up the device from the stand, barely able to make out the sender of the message through the harsh lighting emitting from the screen. But it only took a few seconds for my eyes to adjust, and when they did I discovered the text had come from Ava. The realization gave me a moment of pause before I tapped the screen to read what she had sent:
I miss you.
The simple sentence dug a hook into my gut and pinned me to the mattress, my fingers hovering frozen above the keyboard, the digits awaiting orders to issue a response. But the orders never came, the words failing to tumble from my fingertips before the cell phone vibrated again, another flash outlining the edges of the device. A picture appeared this time, a salacious photo of Ava's ample cleavage barely fitting into frame, even with the breasts mashed between her arms. Another photo soon appeared, this time showing her supine in bed, free hand fondling one of her massive tits. And then another, a close up this time, leaving nothing to the imagination as her erect nipples were on full display for me to enjoy.
Ava had a knack for teasing me in the past, so it was no surprise to find myself in a familiar position, but that didn't stop my heart from pounding against my chest with excitement. It didn't take long until I was straining against the confines of my briefs, the underwear becoming constricted around the erection that threatened to rip through the cotton at any moment. I ogled the pictures as my mind raced, wondering what the best response would be in a situation like this. I didn't have much time to consider before her next message hit the phone, setting the screen ablaze with the notification:
Can I see you soon?
All ambiguity went out the window after her follow-up question eliminated any lingering doubts, and suddenly we were back on as if we had never been turned off. Memories from our shared past sprang up and flickered before my eyes in the darkness, taking me back to a short-lived but much cherished time. Things hadn't worked out the way we wanted then, but perhaps things could be different now--couldn't they? There was only one way to find out. I tapped the screen a few times until the call was placed, then put the phone next to my ear, eager to find out how far this new journey would take us.

Bzzt, bzzt.
The low-pitched vibration was muffled and drowned out amidst the dull roar of the diner, the establishment full of life even at this late hour. Another report from the same frequency cut through the crowd, this time causing Ava to stir in her seat, her food going uneaten as she squirmed under the pressure. We were up to our usual shenanigans as if we hadn't missed a beat during our time apart, engaged in our customary game of cat and mouse which saw her feign displeasure from abuse even though she and I both relished it tremendously. I eventually relented and tapped the screen on my phone a few times until the vibrating ceased, its nearly imperceptible volume vanishing behind the sea of white noise that surrounded us. She heaved a well-earned sigh of relief but grinned nonetheless, turning her large brown eyes on me.
We studied each other silently for what could have been minutes for all we knew, but in reality was maybe a fleeting moment or two, her cute grin holding me hostage despite the torture I was subjecting her to only seconds before. Her hair had grown out, now hanging mid torso and exquisitely colored, a deep black that shifted stunningly into a dark crimson near the ends. Despite the brilliance of her hair it was hard to tear myself away from her captivating eyes, spheres of chocolate that peered into and through me, which were adorned by a pair of natural lashes that were the envy of any woman unfortunate enough to be taunted by them. She was quite simply beautiful, and somehow her sleep attire added to the equation, the tank top and pajama pants framing her blessed, curvaceous body wonderfully.
"It's been quite a while," I mused aloud, seated opposite Ava, who eyed me curiously as she attempted to nibble on a fry.
The words lingered in the air between us, our bodies separated by only a couple feet of tabletop and a growing anxious tension that gnawed at the edges of our collective psyche.
"Did you miss me Taylor?" she asked coyly before popping another fry into her mouth, a makeshift wink working its way into her features as she chewed.
"Is that even a question?"
"A girl just has to be sure, you never know."
"I suppose that's fair, but you know how I feel."
"Do I? How do you feel right now?" she shot back, reclining coolly into her portion of the booth, arms folded across her chest.
My fingers responded immediately, dancing across the screen to reignite her engine, a familiar hum joining the cacophony of noise that blanketed the restaurant. The noise was stifled by the leather beneath her bottom but I could make it out even better by the change of emotions in her face, the shock and surprise driving a deep grit into her teeth as her hands clasped the edge of the tabletop. She held herself up as her body took on a slight tremble, experiencing tremors akin to wake turbulence that twisted through her body from thigh to the crown of her head and then back again.
"How do you feel right now?" I returned to her calmly, my fingers coiled, ready to up the ante.
"That's not fair," she breathed hotly, physically perturbed but holding my gaze admirably.
"Maybe not, but it sure is fun, isn't it?"
