The Catch
After Bram's departure, Iris dives back into her easy chair, enjoying the afterglow. She suddenly thinks with a chuckle of the sperm explosion on the carpet and is about to get up to grab a wet cloth when there's another knock on the door.
It's Bram again, he just can't get enough apparently! She quickly opens the door, mischievous twinkle in her eye.
'Did you forget something?' she asks teasingly.
'Hi,' says Bram, 'yes, no, uh...' The room still smells of sex, which is quite distracting, but he perseveres.
'Um... yes, actually, I have a confession to make.' He looks serious. Iris stiffens, here it comes, she thinks, he's already involved with someone.
'I'm in a relationship,' says Bram.
Shit! Shit! Shit! Iris thinks, and we didn't use a condom that last time, it went so fast... And now he has a girlfriend. Shit!
Iris isn't usually that quick to get into bed with boyfriends, but Bram is so irresistible, and it just felt right. This sucks.
'I understand,' she says with a disappointed look on her face.
'No, I don't think so,' responds Bram. Iris looks at him questioningly.
'What happened between us here this afternoon made me realize that I don't want to be in that relationship at all, haven't for a long time,' Bram continues.
'Keep going,' Iris says.
'We've known each other since grammar school, she was the most wanted girl in the school and she kind of entangled me in her nets, before I knew it we were dating. In retrospect I realize that I was mainly arm-candy,' he blushes, 'Bianca is all about appearances, there is not much inside.'
Iris listens, her face neutral. She can imagine, who wouldn't want to walk next to Bram...
'Bianca is quite dominant, what she wants happens. I've had doubts about this relationship for a long time, but somehow she always manages to 'get me in line', so to speak.
But now that I've met you, the scales have fallen from my eyes.' He laughs, 'And that feels very liberating. I wanted to tell you this now because I'm going to her right after this conversation to break up with her. And whether or not you want to have anything to do with me now, I sure hope you do,' he says with a sweet smile, 'I'm done with Bianca.'
'Okay,' says Iris, not sure how she feels about this yet, 'Do what you have to do, and you can report back to me at the pub tomorrow night.'
Bram breathes a sigh of relief, partly because the story is out in the open, partly because she still wants to see him.
'By the way, we haven't actually had sex in months, so don't worry too much about that condom, or rather the lack of it,' he smiles.
Iris has a relieved look on her face, it makes Bram laugh. Then he stands up and gently kisses her on the mouth and strokes her cheek. It takes Iris great effort, but she manages to control herself, this boy is too sexy for his own good. She watches him as he walks out of the room.
Knight in Shining Armor
A new day dawns, Iris didn't sleep much that night, Bram kept running through her head. Eventually, she'd opened the drawer of her bedside table and pulled out her trusty buddy during single spells, hoping she'd be able to sleep afterwards.
Thinking about the amazing sex that afternoon, she soon came with violent jerks, but it didn't help much.
After a few hours of belated sleep, she wakes up. Her trusty vibrator is still on the bedside table, she gives it a grateful kiss and then thinks, why not... and she places the vibrator in the pulsating position on her clit. After ten satisfying minutes, she puts it down and stands up. Great, a whole day of deliberation and thinking about Bram until it's finally seven o'clock, she thinks cynically.
But the day flies by and in her heart she already knows that she doesn't want to let Bram go.
It's almost seven o'clock, Iris is waiting for Bram to pick her up. At the stroke of seven she hears his knock on the door. She quickly snatches her coat from the coat rack, a calf-length colorful hippie style cloak, a hand-me-down from her aunt Simone to which she is very attached. She opens the door and there is Bram, all sex, she feels her clit tighten again. It shouldn't be allowed, being so darn sexy, she thinks, chuckling to herself. They give each other a kiss on the mouth and Iris steps out, putting on her coat at the same time. 'Nice coat,' Bram says admiringly. 'Thank you, legacy from my Aunt Simone.'
'Then your aunt has excellent taste,' says Bram. "Had,' says Iris as they descend the stairs, 'she passed away several years ago.'
'Oh, I'm sorry, was she already of age?'
