Eli
I opened my eyes, saw a sleek black dresser, and had no idea where I was. Sunlight was streaming through the big window. Someone was snoring. Greg.
Everything flooded back to me. The speeding car ride. My finger in the Bailey's. My fear. Greg's agonizing slowness. His mouth on my cock. The amazing grunting noises he made when he was inside me.
I turned slightly to stare at Greg. His broad back faced me; his hair was mussed. I peered over at his face. He looked totally peaceful. His mouth He looked totally peaceful. His lips were relaxed and slightly parted as he breathed softly in his sleep.
God, that was the most incredible night of my life. I should send my cousin flowers or something for introducing us. Forget flowers. Something bigger, like a car or a house.
There was something I was supposed to remember from last night. Something he said as I was falling asleep maybe? I couldn't remember what.
I got up very slowly, carefully, and quietly. I wasn't crazy about the idea of putting my fancy suit back on, but it was all I had. I started to pull up my pants and my keys jangled.
"Morning, sexy." Greg's voice was sleepy.
I had my pants almost all the way up and I froze, not sure what to do. I'm not sure what my expression looked like. I'm guessing it was sort of 'walk of shamer gets caught', because Greg laughed.
"Hey," I said.
"Would you like something more comfortable to put on?" he said pointing toward a drawer. "Shorts or something?"
"Ah, yeah."
"Or you could just stay naked," he said and reached out toward me. "Yeah, I like that idea better. Naked."
I stood there, my pants almost up to my hips, not sure if I should pull them up that last little bit or not.
"Come here, baby," he said. He sat up a little bit and opened his arms. I left my pants where they were and held them up with one hand as I walked over to him.
He hugged me, burying his head in my upper chest.
"You feel so good. How can you feel so good?" I whispered.
Greg just chuckled. He playfully pulled me over him onto the bed and my pants fell halfway down, because I hadn't fastened them.
"Are you a morning sex person? Or an I have to have coffee before I can fool around person?" Greg asked me.
Oh God, I didn't know. I started to blush. How inexperienced could I possibly be?
Greg put a hand on my lower back and ran a quick hand over one side of my ass and down my leg.
Fuck yeah.
Then my stomach growled.
"I guess you're a breakfast before sex person," Greg said.
He pushed me off him and got up.
Wait! I wanted to say. No, no. I'm a Greg before breakfast person. But of course I was too shy. He was already walking to the dresser. I admired his backside.
"Here. Put these on." He threw me a pair of shorts that were actually a pair of dark grey sweats that had been cut-off mid-thigh level. I pulled them on and tightened the drawstring. They were amazingly soft. I realized that he must have worn them and washed them hundreds of times to get them this soft. It was a turn-on wearing something that was a favorite of his.
"They look good on you," he said. He strode toward me with that hungry look in his eyes. "Maybe I can train you to wait for breakfast."
There was a loud knock at the door.
"What?" Greg said.
"You expecting someone?" I asked.
He shook his head and put on a robe. He went to the door.
I tip-toed down the short hall and peeked in the living room.
Greg was standing in the open doorway. A gorgeous, over quaffed blond man was asking Greg for some papers. My cheeks got hot. Was it a lover who left something here?
"I told you maybe I'd stop by on Sunday," the blond said.
"Yeah," Greg said. "I just didn't think it would be so early, and I thought you would call first."
Greg turned around and went through the dining area into what must have been his office. He left the front door open, probably so it wouldn't seem like he was shutting it in this guy's face. The guy let himself in and walked into the middle of the living room. He turned around to take the place in, so as soon as he got the hallway, he saw me, watching him from the shadows.
"Oh-ho," he said and jumped a little.
Shit. I didn't think about what it might mean, to have someone Greg knew see a guy coming from what was obviously the bedroom area in just a pair of shorts.
"Are you one of Greg's students?" My face burned hot. I shook my head furiously.
Greg came back into the room with a stack of papers. "Found it."
"Hey, Howard." Greg smacked the papers against the man's chest. "Stop staring. I see you met my friend."
I shook my head again. Greg was talking to Howard, but still I hadn't met him so the headshake seemed natural to me.
Greg came and took my wrist and pulled me forward. "Howard, this is my
friend,
Eli. Eli, this is Howard."
Howard looked me up and down. He stuck his hand out, and I automatically stuck my hand out to shake it.
"I can't stay," he said. "I'm on my way to church. I'm sorry to have dropped by so early, it's just that it's on the way."
"Nice to meet you," I said.
Howard nodded. He bobbed the papers up and down. "We are going to discuss this, Greg." Howard walked to the door, but then looked over his shoulder at Greg for one parting shot. "Assuming your boy-toy doesn't wear you out."
"Fucker," Greg said good-naturedly after he shut the door. "Now where were we?" He turned to me and I'm not sure what he saw in my expression, but he didn't like it. I turned and walked back to the bedroom, thinking maybe I should just leave.
"Hey," Greg said. "Hey, hey."
I looked around the bedroom like I couldn't decide what to do first. Put my dress shirt on?
"Hey," Greg said again. He grabbed me and pushed me up against a wall. "What's bugging you?"
"You and him," I jerked my head toward the front door. "I mean... you..." I looked down. I had no claim to Greg. None. I had no right to be jealous.
"Me? With him? No. Eli. Hey, no." He tilted my head up so I looked at him. "Never. We went out on one date, when he first came to the University four years ago."
I put my hands over my middle - trying to cradle the awful empty feeling that plummeted into the pit of my stomach.. Greg took my wrists and held them up against the wall on either side of my head.
"Listen to me Eli," he said. "He punctuated each point by taking my wrists and slapping them back against the wall gently. "Never." Bam. "Slept." Bam. "With him." Bam.
Of their own accord, my hips surged toward him. He pressed me into the wall, using his hips to capture mine. Greg nuzzled my neck.
