"Anthony, wake up!! Movie's done," Sonya said, shaking me awake.
I woke up and saw the ending credits of the indie movie we had downloaded moving up the screen.
"Oh, Sonya, I'm sorry," I told her, groggily. "Guess I was pretty tired."
"That's okay, it wasn't that great...you seen one zombie movie, you've seen 'em all," Sonya said, turning off the big screen TV. She maneuvered her wheelchair and started toward the kitchen, then stopped, turning it back towards me.
"Oh, my mother wants to talk to you before you go home. She told me to make sure you talk to her - go knock on her door."
"What about?" I asked, furiously wracking my brain for anything I'd done wrong. I couldn't think of anything.
"She wants to tell you herself," Sonya said, mysteriously.
"Am I in trouble?" I asked, worriedly.
Sonya smiled. "Definitely NOT in trouble."
"So you know what she's going to say?" I asked.
"Oh yes, I know," Sonya said, nodding her head slowly.
"You can't give me a hint?" I asked.
"Just go see my mother," Sonya said. "She's waiting to talk to you."
"Okay, I'm going," I said. "One hint?"
Exasperated, Sonya shook her head.
"No hints," she told me, firmly. "I will tell you one thing, though."
"What?" I asked
"You'll probably like what she has to say - that's all I'm going to say about it," Sonya said.
"I'll go," I told her. "You want to come?"
"Nope," Sonya said. "I'm going to bed. I'm so tired."
As if to prove her point, Sonya yawned hugely. I watched her stretch, her muscular arms reaching up as high as she could reach.
"Okay, I'll let myself out when we're done talking," I assured her. "Go get some rest."
I walked over to her and bent down to kiss her. Sonya wrapped her arms around my neck and returned the kiss, her lips soft against mine, her mouth welcoming my tongue. We kissed for several more minutes; I could feel my cock getting hard in my jeans.
"Wow," Sonya said, as we pulled apart. She was as affected by the kiss as I was. From her wheelchair, Sonya's line of sight was just a little above crotch level. She recognized my plight immediately. She reached out her hand and stroked my hard-on through the denim. I let out a sigh of pleasure and closed my eyes. Sonya continued rubbing me for another minute or so and then stopped. I opened my eyes and looked at down at her face. Sonya was staring at my bulging fly with a wistful, sad expression. When she looked up and saw me watching her, her smile brightened and all traces of sadness disappeared.
"Go see my mom," Sonya said. "NOW."
"Okay, I'm going, I'm going...! Goodnight," I said. "I'll be back around five tomorrow," I told her, glancing at my watch. It was almost midnight.
"Goodnight...see you tomorrow," she said cheerily as she wheeled her chair around my and rolled down the hallway to her bedroom. I watched the wheels disappear into her bedroom, and the bedroom door shut behind her.
I stopped in the bathroom to take a leak and splash some cold water on my face. I wanted to be completely cool before I talked to Sonya's mom. It wouldn't look so great to march in her room with my dick sticking straight out of my crotch, I thought. I looked in the mirror critically and smoothed my dark hair from over my eyes. I looked decent, I figured. People looked at me all the time because I was good looking: Wavy, dark brown hair, hazel eyes, a regular nose, a square jaw and full lips - I was told I looked like a young Warren Beatty. Girls stared, some of them bold enough to hand me their phone numbers before running off to giggle with their friends. Since I'd gotten my license last year, I'd met and screwed a dozen of these empty-headed little fluffs. I'd gotten pretty tired of meeting girls - most of them were shallow, materialistic, stupid or just little bitches. I looked down. My hard-on had deflated the crotch of my jeans back to normal.
I washed my hands, my mind full of Sonya. I'd met her at the downtown library. Sonya was incredibly lovely, her strawberry blonde hair cut short like a pixie, framing her delicate features, her dark blue eyes that looked around her with lively interest, and often, amusement. As I drew closer to her, I could see that her skin that was dusted liberally with freckles. I'd been compelled to talk to her. And I did.
"So, how much longer until you can get out of that chair?" I'd asked, with my most charming smile.
She'd looked up at me, bemused.
"Never," she said. "I'm paralyzed from the chest down."
She said that so pleasantly, that I wasn't sure what I'd heard.
"I'm sorry?" I asked.
"I'm paralyzed," she repeated, louder. "So, never."
I'd stuck my foot in my mouth, I realized.
"Oh, I'm sorry," I said, "It's just that you look so pretty, so positive-looking, you know - " I stopped myself from further idiocy.
"That you didn't think I could be a paraplegic?" she asked, without rancor.
"Well, yeah," I said. "Stupid assumption."
Time for her to turn tail and escape, I thought. Idiot!
"No problem," she said, putting her hand out. "By the way, I'm Sonya."
I grabbed her hand and kissed it. Corny, I know, but it felt right.
"Anthony, book freak and library geek," I said, making an expansive arm gesture at the bookshelves all around us.
I shook my head, ruefully, I'd become so enthralled with this little fairy that I had to cart around her wheelchair every place we went, put her in the chair, take her back out of the chair, check her catheter levels...and it was all so very worth it. I had never met anyone like Sonya. Smart. Intelligent. Funny. Positive. Open. Fun-loving.
Closing the bathroom door behind me, I headed to the room across from Sonya's and knocked.
"Mrs. Lebedev?" I spoke through the door.
The door opened, and Sonya's mom ushered me into her bedroom. Mrs. Lebedev was definitely an attractive woman - and she knew it. I guessed she was in her early 40s or so, but she looked younger. She was tiny, like her daughter, barely reaching my chin. Her hair was a pale blonde, but her eyes were the same dark blue as Sonya's. But, where Sonya was tiny everywhere, her mother was voluptuous. She was wearing a long t-shirt that was snug over her breasts and only fell to mid-thigh. I felt my cock stirring in my pants. Panicking, I thought if the most horrific and gruesome thoughts I could summon. War, corpses, people on fire, piranhas feasting, tarantulas...I let out a small sigh of relief as I could feel my erection fail.
"Hello, Anthony...thank you for coming to talk to me," Mrs. Lebedev said in her heavy Russian accent. She sat on the ottoman in the corner of her room. "Please, sit down for a moment so we can talk a little." She gestured to the chair directly in front of the ottoman.
I walked to the chair and sat down and she swiveled around to talk to me. She was uncomfortably close to me, her knees almost touching mine.
"I guess you've been wondering what I wanted to talk to you about?" she asked.
I nodded.
"Yes, I've been wondering...although Sonya told me I wasn't in trouble or anything," I said.
Mrs. Lebedev laughed.
"Oh, no, not in trouble...! In fact, is just the opposite." Mrs. Lebedev beamed at me. "I just want to tell you I'm happy you are seeing my daughter. Sonya has not had many boyfriends. Is hard for her to be in wheelchair. Not many boys want to go out with girl in wheelchair."
I nodded, sympathetically.
"But, YOU...you have been very good to my daughter. You take her places. She is much, much happier since she has met you," Mrs. Lebedev said, earnestly.
"Well, I'm happy to hear that," I said, feeling self-conscious from all the praise. "Sonya's an amazing girl."
"Yes, she is. But if nobody is interested in girl who is handicapped, nobody finds out what a beautiful girl she is. Except for you. YOU." Mrs. Lebedev said again.
I smiled, but said nothing.
"In fact, when Sonya went to visit her father, she told him about you," he mother went on.
I stiffened. Her father? All I knew about Sonya's father was that he was with the Russian mob or something.
"I hope it was GOOD things," I joked, weakly.
"Of course, only GOOD things," Mrs. Lebedev assured me. "But Sonya's father is - let's say - protective of her. So he got some information about you and asked around."
I felt a momentary stab of fear and then squelched it. I hadn't done anything to worry about, I thought. I HOPED.
"He said you seem to be good guy," Mrs. Lebedev assured me. "He told me to tell you to take Sonya to meet him on Wednesday night. He will be at the club. Sonya will tell you how to get there. At 7:00."
