The music on my car radio was blaring at a level ten. I was singing along as loudly as I could. It had been a good day at work. I got a promotion and a nice raise. Things could not be better. Just as I passed through the intersection at 1st street and Avenue C, I heard a horrific bang and felt my car jolt. I came to. The car was full of blue dust. White sheets covered the windows. The car hissed and buzzed. I could barely see. My body was pinned to the seat. The seatbelt had a crushing grip on my chest. I tried to get my bearings. It was difficult. My ears were ringing. The blue dust obscured my view, but I could see the hood of my car was against the windshield. What the fuck happened?
I tried to move. Intense pain shot through my body, from my neck down to my feet. I screamed out. No one answered. My heart began to race. Sirens, lots of sirens. I needed to get out. I felt like I was going to die. I began to panic. I tried to move again but the pain was overwhelming. Was I going to die? Fuck! What just happened?
Suddenly the hiss and buzz were pierced by a deep male voice. "Ma'am do not move; it's ok we are here to help you. Let us do all the work." A chocolate brown, incredibly muscled arm reached through the sheet hanging from my drivers' side window. A second later two very strong hands were around my neck. They held my neck tightly. The deep voice then asked me my name. I told him Emily, then asked him what happened. He said that I had been in an accident and that he was a firefighter/EMT and was here to help me. I began to cry. He told me that everything was alright, I was safe, and he needed me to be brave. I sputtered out a feeble, "ok". Another pair of hands appeared and ripped away the curtain. From the corner of my eye, I could see one of my rescuers' brown arms extending up to a blue shirt with the name "Powers" on it. The voice then told me that it was going to get really noisy and not to worry. The other set of hands put a sheet over me. All hell then broke loose. There was a lot of crunching and cutting. I could hear glass breaking from every angle. A minute later, the interior of my car became brighter. The second set of hands removed the sheet to reveal the roof was gone from my car.
The second set of hands replaced Powers hand with a C-collar. Powers then popped his head around and smiled and said, "ok young lady, it's time for you to get out of the car. Let us do it, you just relax." Powers put his strong brown hands under my arms, while the second set of hands grabbed me lower down. They lifted me up and slid a back board behind me. In a flash they had me fully on the back board, then had me flat and traversing over my car. Fuck, these guys were so strong, I thought. A second later I was on a gurney. Powers looked down at me and smiled and told me that I was going to be fine, and that the ambulance was going to take me to the trauma center to get checked out.
I looked up at him in a daze. My god, he was handsome, and that voice was incredible. It was deep and smooth and so very sexy. He continued to speak to me, but I did not hear a word. I was too busy marveling at his muscled chest, stretching his pressed blue uniform. All I wanted to do was to rub my hand across his chest. Powers rolled the gurney to the ambulance door and handed me off to the regular EMT's. He wished me luck then walked away. At that very moment all I could think about was how fucking sexy he was. Once in the ambulance it all came back to me. The pain was excruciating. It shot from my neck down to my toes. The EMT started a line in my arm then gave me an injection of what he called "happy juice." The pain subsided a bit and I relaxed.
Once at the hospital, I discovered that I had fractured C1 and C2. The doctor said that this is fatal 98% of the time and that I should be happy that I did not try to get out of the car myself. He said that whoever held my neck stable saved my life. I became very emotional. They kept me for three days, then sent me home with a neck brace that looked like a set of scaffolding. I was told I could not do anything. No work. No driving. No nothing, for at least six weeks. I went home and felt sorry for myself. My mom would stop by to bring food and help me when she could. Otherwise, my days were sitting watching TV and being bored and thinking about Powers. The doctor said he had saved my life and I wanted to find a way to thank him. I must admit that in my boredom, I may have spanked my little clam a few times thinking of him.
Weeks passed and I was released from my jail. I had one more day off before I needed to go back to work. I cooked up a scheme to say thank you, literally. I cooked a large batch of my famous chocolate chip cookies. I put them individually in clear bags and tied a cute little tag on each that said thank you. On one bag, I added the name Powers, then wrote my phone number on the back, with a message that said, "you deserve more than a cookie, call me."
I packed them up and drove down to the fire station. The large doors were open, so I just walked in. I opened the door to the office area to find eight firefighters sitting watching TV. One popped up and asked if he could help me. He said he was the lieutenant. I asked him if firefighter Powers worked at the station. He laughed and yelled, "hey Brutus, you have a visitor." Just then a head peaked around the corner, it was him. My heart skipped a beat. Powers wiped off his hands and walked towards me. OH MY GOD! He was even better than I had remembered. Powers stood 6 foot 4 inches. Arms and chest like a Greek god. His skin was chocolate brown, smooth and creamy. Flawless in fact. His mouth opened and said, "how may I help you ma'am?" Fuck! It was that ma'am again. That voice, that deep, deep voice that made my pussy get all wet.
I sputtered a bit like a stupid schoolgirl, then told him that he had rescued me. He thought for a minute, then said, "oh yes, you were in the car accident on Ave C." I nearly shit myself, he remembered. I told him that the doctor said he saved my life and I wanted to thank him personally. I handed him the basket of cookies. As I did, the other guys said, "oooooooh, Brutus got some cookies." He smiled shyly and thanked me. I asked him if I could give him a hug. He said yes. I got on my tip toes, and he bent down and wrapped his arms around my 5-foot 2-inch frame. Holy shit, his arms felt so good around me. As he hugged me, I whispered that there was a special cookie just for him. He acknowledged that without being too obvious. I then turned and thanked them all for what they did for me. As I closed the door and headed back past the firetrucks, I heard them burst out in laughter, then they began to cheer, Brutus, Brutus, Brutus. I giggled a bit and left.
