"Baby...what are you doing?" Keryn laughed as a silk scarf was wrapped around her eyes.
"You'll see," Tamir laughed "Just trust me,"
"Trust you, huh?"
"What? You think I'm setting you up?"
"No...I'd just like to know what I'm getting into."
"Don't worry you're gonna love it.... But if you scream, I win."
Tamir led Keryn into the bedroom. Her sense of smell instantly recognized the contents of her surroundings.
Ah, candles...and roses? How did you have time to do this?"
"While you were in the shower."
"You're so romantic."
"You think..."
"It's a possibility."
Her ears fixed in on the music playing in the background, it was different, but then everything with Tamir was. He placed a soft kiss on her lips that became more passionate with every flick of his tongue. Keryn felt the heat between them and her clothes leaving her body. His hands barely touched her as he removed her bra and slid off her panties as if a ghost was undressing her.
"'Mir...where are you?"
"I'm still here," he whispered. "I'm not going anywhere. Just concentrate on what you feel and I'll do the rest."
Keryn stood naked and nervous of what was about to take place. Tamir always let her have control of every part of their relationship...but in the bedroom he had ultimate domain. She stood almost untouched for a minute, the scent of the candles and roses and the music surrounded her. Then she felt his hands on her thighs. Her body tensed.
"Nervous?" he asked. "Because if you are don't be."
Tamir placed a kiss on her forehead, the tip of her nose and then just barely touching her lips. Her hands were then placed above her head and she felt something around her wrists. Keryn laughed lowly, she knew she had just been handcuffed.
"Baby what are you up to?"
In one swoop she was picked up and lain on cool silk sheets. Her fear and her nature heightened all at once. This was strangely turning her on. Her body twitched as a feather was run up and down her body. Her ears focused on the music, which was now familiar:
I can't eat, can't sleep/you know that it's unnatural/what you do to me/you know that it's so sexual...
She moaned softly and Tamir smiled, knowing he was getting the response he wanted. His tongue met her ear and he played with her earlobe and kissed and bit at her neck. Her moans became louder as he trailed over her breasts and her belly to her navel and down her thighs...her calves then to her heels. Keryn gasped as he sucked on her toes one by one. He moved up the inside of her thighs before she could catch her breath and went for what he sought.
"I was going to wait...but I just have to taste you..."
His tongue moved slowly careful as not to miss one drop. Keryn squirmed underneath him as he opened her legs further going after what his appetite called for. It was becoming hard not to scream. Tamir worked at her relentlessly, his tongue trailed her body in every possible direction and he nipped and licked at her every peak and valley from her nipples to her clit and back up again until her moans turned into his name being called out over and over again.
"Just as I thought," he said as he bit one of her nipples. "You do taste as good as you look."
Tamir removed the handcuffs from her wrists and silently she was relieved, but Keryn knew this was far from over. The blindfold left her eyes and she focused to see him in front of her with a half-smile and she gave him one in return.
"I'm not done yet love," he said pressing on her shoulders making her lay back on the bed. "Just relax..."
He placed himself above her and kissed her deeply. She tensed as he entered her with one finger and moved back and forth slowly, then he joined it with another. Keryn's body relaxed and she began to follow his motions. She only prayed he felt as good inside her, if not better. He raised one of her legs, then the other. He felt her shaking underneath him and looked in her eyes.
"Baby, if you're nervous we don't have to. It can wait..."
" 'Mir...I want to...we've waited long enough..."
He started again, this time her body didn't resist him. Every breath left her body when he entered her and soon she relaxed again. His every movement was slow and loving. She started to enjoy herself as much as she did during the foreplay that came before. Keryn was making Tamir's head spin as her hips began to rock with his. She took to him as if it was all rehearsed, reacting to what she felt from him. Keryn's moans and pleads became louder driving him further into his mission. If he didn't take stock of all he was feeling, the moment would pass all too soon. The sounds in the room became louder as they became lost in each other. It no longer mattered who screamed first, it only mattered that they
climaxed together. Tamir felt Keryn on the edge of release, he knew she wanted to let go but wasn't sure how, he had to show her.
He held Keryn close not letting her body push him away. He kissed her feverishly and began to move faster. Suddenly she tore her lips away from his and let out the sound he waited for...a scream that triggered his own release.
They both lay still beathing heavily. Keryn's body still trembled underneath him.
"You're still shaking..." he whispered placing butterfly kisses on her face.
"I know..."
"Well that means I'm not done."
"Well for now we have to be. What if my big brother catches us, he'll kill us both.
"I know. But one day he'll have to understand..."
"Right now, is not the time. Come on you have to go. We'll talk about this later"
They quickly dressed in silence. Tamir grabbed the keys and headed for the door with Keryn close behind. The sound of keys in the lock stopped them in their tracks. "Kay, you home?" her brother yelled from down the hall.
"Shit!" Keryn whispered as they went back into the bedroom and closed the door. She slowly turned the lock and Tamir shot her a confused look.
"Larry is home...now what?"
"Go out the window and back around the front," she whispered opening her bedroom window. Tamir climbed out and did exactly as Keryn said. "I'll be out in a minute," she yelled down the hall.
Keryn walked into the living room and gave her brother a hug.
"Hey kid, what's up?" Larry asked.
"Nothin' just hanging out. Did you check the mail? I was waiting on something important."
"Nah..." he said pulling off his jacket.
"I'll get it. Be right back."
She pulled open the front door just as Tamir was about to knock. He stood motionless not knowing what to do. Keryn just smiled.
"Hey...look who I found on the front step."
"Man, I've been trying to call you all day. Where you been?" Larry asked giving Tamir a pound and a brotherly hug.
"I had something I needed to get into," he looked at Keryn and smiled. "My cell phone wasn't on, my bad. What was so important anyway?"
"Nothing, I just wanted to ask you about this girl who's occupying all your time lately. She must be pretty important."
"I'll talk to you about that later. I was coming by to see if you wanted a ride to the press conference."
"Uh, yeah. Give me about twenty minutes to change and I'll be ready to go."
"Take your time, " Tamir said sitting on the couch and putting his feet up on the coffee table.
"So...what are you gonna tell him?" Keryn asked joining him on the couch.
"I want to let him know, Kay. I can't go on loving you like this and keeping it a secret."
"I know, but baby this will break his heart. It doesn't matter if I'm eighteen, He still sees me as a baby."
"I feel like we've hidden this long enough. He's gonna find out one way or another. I'd rather he find out from me. If he doesn't understand, we'll just have to make him."
"I want to let him know too baby, but I think he'll take it better from you. You two tend to see eye to eye more."
"I'll tell him sometime during the course of the night. I'll find a way."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah...something's gotta give and it's gonna be today. I have to be with you out in the open, Kay. It'll all work out baby...I promise."
"I hope so," Keryn said leaning on his shoulder. He put his arm around her and kissed her forehead. Keryn wanted this to work out but she knew Larry would not approve.
Larry came back into the room just as they broke their embrace. Tamir stood up and went to the door.
"We'll be back later sis," Larry said walking out the door to the car.
"Okay...I'll be here."
She watched them walk away. Just before she closed the door, Tamir turned and winked at her.
"Keryn, he is too damn old for you!" Larry said at the top of his lungs. "You're still in high school, what the hell were you thinking?"
"I have had a crush on him since I was twelve. For him to see me as an equal was the biggest thing in my itty-bitty teenage world! This is what I've always wanted and you think telling me you don't approve is really gonna matter!"
"I don't like this shit not one bit..."
"Why? Because you see how he treats groupies...that he never takes a girl seriously? What about Keira...the girl who gave his baby away? You saw how that tore him apart, didn't you? Did you actually expect him to just bounce back and trust another female again after that..."
"...you ain't gotta lay out Mir's history to me, Kay. He's like a brother to me. I know what Keira did to him..."
"...and so do I. What you don't know is he confided in me about that back then and I understood. I saw how he treated girls after that and I used to hear you guys talk about the shit y'all did...every last one of you, not just him! So don't come at me like I don't know. It seems like you hate me more for this and he's not at fault. Well keep in mind it's Keryn and Tamir in the relationship...not just me."
"I just don't want to see you hurt, Keryn."
"You should know your brother better than that...even if you don't care to know me all that well. I knew you would be upset but this...this is ridiculous. If I haven't been hurt in three months I won't get hurt now...and if I do, then I have to live with it...goodnight."
Keryn grabbed her long black leather coat and stormed out of the front door. She reached in her pocket and much to her relief her cell phone was still there. She had a phone call to make and it couldn't wait any longer.
After ten minutes on the front porch, a black Mercedes S430 pulled up in front of the house. Without hesitation she got in the car and slumped down in the seat.
