***This story is dedicated to MG, truly a god amongst men - mind, body, and soul - who drives me wild in ways I'll never understand.

I'm racing across town, pushing the capabilities of my boxy little car, barely slowing for stoplights. My mind is focused on one thing and one thing only right now...him. He's finally here again - in my zip code. And I can't get to his hotel fast enough. Granted, once I get there, I plan to play it cool. We agreed to be adult about this and not rush into anything too soon. We're going to take our time and get to know one another. No sex. I have to keep reminding myself of this. No sex. Maybe if I keep repeating it, my pussy won't be so wet and hot for him. Yeah, right. But that's the deal. No sex. We're gonna keep ourselves under control.
But damn, the first time we met, the sexual tension was palpable. We wanted one another so badly. I'll never forget walking up those stairs at the brewery to meet him...seeing him sitting there at the very first table. My god, I couldn't climb those stairs fast enough. And then he stood up to hug me, this mountain of a man. As he bent down to greet me and his long, strong arms enveloped me, I realized his presence was extraordinary. He had this way about him that put me at ease immediately. And not only was he insanely gorgeous with his tight, dark red curls, thick beard, and killer smile, but he was taller than any human being I'd ever met. My heart is in my throat just thinking about our first moment together.
But no. Not today. Today we're gonna keep the sexual tension under wraps. We're gonna take our time to get to know each other better in person. We're not some horny high school kids. We can control ourselves. We CAN control ourselves. No sex.
But I'm not totally buying into my own bullshit thoughts as I screech into the parking lot of his hotel and pull into the first space I see. After turning the car off, I quickly glance in the mirror of my visor to make sure my thick, pouty lips are looking kissable. Check. I hop out of my car and straighten my casual black cotton dress. I give my boobs a quick push in the upward direction, then off I stride towards the front entrance of the hotel. I point the remote over my head in the general direction of my car to lock it, not even looking back to make sure the lights blinked confirming that it's secure. I don't give a fuck right now. Steal the goddamn car for all I care. I get to see HIM.
I scurry rapidly into the lobby of the hotel. I check my phone to retrieve his text. "I'm here, baby. Room 312. Come as soon as you can." That was only 20 minutes earlier. I probably look way too eager showing up so soon, but I don't care. He's here again. Finally.
I walk over to the elevator and press the UP button. I press it again and again impatiently. Finally, after what seems like an eternity, the elevator beeps and the doors open. It's empty. I leap inside and press the "3" button, then press the ">> <<" button several times to get those doors closed and send me on my way up. I arrive on the third floor and shuffle down the hallway until I'm standing in front of Room 312. I tousle my long, thick, dark red curls and straighten my dress once more. I purse my lips together, then take a deep breath. I build up the courage to allow my knuckles to make contact with the door, signaling my arrival. I hear some noises on the other side of the door, then loud thuds across the floor. His footsteps. The door unlocks and swings open. And there he is, standing on the other side of it. He greets me with a warm smile, "Nicole!"
"Michael," I say as I feel my face flush a bit.
"Come in," he says, stepping aside. I walk into the tiny foyer of his hotel room and freeze as he closes the door and re-locks it. He turns to me and looks me dead in the eyes. I'm staring back up at him intensely. Our eyes are locked. Our bodies, motionless. But the heat between us, without another word spoken, is off the charts. It's almost painful. Without warning, he takes an aggressive step towards me. Suddenly his fingers are entangled in my red curls, his other arm is around my waist, pulling me into his strong, massive, gorgeous body, and his lips are pressed tightly against mine. I feel my body go limp from the pure ecstasy of one simple kiss...a kiss we've both rightfully longed for. He pulls me tighter, even closer against him. I moan against his mouth as my nails dig into his biceps. I feel his cock growing and twitching in his jeans against my exposed left thigh. He then moans in answer, but quickly breaks his lips away from mine. He's still close to me, but I feel lost for a moment without our bodies pressed against one another. My inner child pouts, wanting his lips on mine again. But I crane my neck to look up at his massively tall stature and take him in. He is a god amongst men. I'm a tall woman but at 6'8, Michael towers over me by almost an entire foot. His once thick curls are now shaven down, but his sexy beard remains. His broad shoulders are so intimidating. His large hand reaches up and brushes my cheek. I realize my mind has been wandering, filled with lust for this glorious specimen of a man that I just want to drink in for an eternity. "That kiss...." he whispers, his voice trailing off.
