My roommate was out and I didn't have work. I loved it already. I slept in late, and walked around the house half naked. I breathed a sigh of bliss as I walked around the kitchen getting ready to do dishes when I heard a knock at my door. I rolled my eyes as I thought of not getting it, but then thought better of it.
I looked down at myself to make sure I was decent enough. I wore a sports bra with a pair of old boxer shorts. In my mind I thought it was good enough to answer the damn door. I walked down the hallway, as I swiped my long brown hair away from my face. Once I got to the door, the person on the other side knocked again very loudly. I opened the door and saw a stranger dressed in black.
He was strikingly handsome. He had black hair with dark blue eyes that were to die for. He definitely wasn't a pretty boy but had a bad boy look to him. I just stood there staring at him when he said, "Can I use your phone? My car broke down by the road."
I remember my parents saying never let a stranger in, but then again, I didn't want to feel like an ass for not letting him make a phone call. My car broke done plenty of times and I had to ask some people myself. Not that easy, I'll tell you that. I never had enough money to buy myself a cell phone, and whenever I did, I never got enough service to make a damn call anyway.
"Ya, sure, come on in. I know how it feels when your car breaks down and no one will let you use your damn phone. I've been there myself." I giggled and let him in. As he came I stared at his back. His muscles moved gracefully and I knew he was strong and knew he knew it too. He must work out, I thought. I smiled at that. It seemed like the way he moved was predatory.
Damn it, I was attracted to him! I shook my head to clear my thoughts and showed him the way to my phone. "There's my phone." I said and continued into the kitchen, to do my dishes.
I heard him pick the phone up, dial and then him speaking into it softly. His voice was low and terribly sexy. It seemed like his voice was calling to me or something. I shook the thought off and concentrated on not concentrating on him. I swiped at a plate that still had some crumbs from me eating some toast from breakfast and rinsed it.
"May I . . ." He started from behind me, which nearly scared me half to death. No one was able to sneak up on me or scare me, for I seemed to know where they were or something. It was like a 6th sense. But somehow he just did.
He laid his hand on me as if to calm me, and I felt warmth that I never knew, tingle through my arm then to pool in the center of my being. "Easy. . . I didn't mean to scare you."
"It's okay. I'm just a little jumpy. I let a stranger into my house, and I just realized that it was a bad idea." I looked into his blue eyes as I felt heat rise to color my face.
"Well let's remedy that." He paused to breathe in deeply. "My name is Rick. Yours?"
I breathed easier realizing that if he's able to give me his name, he won't do anything. "Mine's Cody."
"See. Now we aren't strangers anymore." He smiled and it dazzled me. Then I realized that he was womanizer. That was why he was so comfortable around me and was probably thinking that I would fall for him like all the others. Well guess what, if he wants me, he's going to have to earn it. I smiled back.
He looked at me as if I was holding a secret from him. It only made me grin at him. "Well back to where I scared you. May I stay here until my ride gets here?" He said softly, and it seemed like his voice caressed my very soul. God, did that sound corny, I thought.
"I guess so. You can sit down and watch TV till they get here I guess." I then turned back to the dishes, making him wonder why I wasn't falling for his charms. I smiled and continued to clean the dishes. Silence met me from behind, I wasn't even sure if he left from behind me or not.
A finger trailed down my back making me shiver delicously. "Such soft skin, so beautiful." His breath slid warmly around my neck and his finger gave me shocks of attraction that it scared me.
I whipped around to stop him when he laid his long fingers on my soft lips to stop my protest. I slapped his hand away from me and started to explode on him. "Excuse me! What do you think you are doing? No one touches me unless I want them to!"
