The glow of the streetlights invaded the darkness. Appreciative of the intrusion, he crept in to find her asleep, a bottle of sleeping pills on the bedside table by the open window.
Wednesday night. She didn't have to work tomorrow.
It would be difficult to wake her.
On the other hand, he'd spent the drive home imagining, remembering. Her mouth, her lips- moist and parted; the caresses of her breath as she whispered in his ear, "I want you in my mouth... Let me...," pleasure in her pauses, before sweetly stretching her "Please."
Standing over her, he licked his lips. "Mmm."
She lay on her side, one hand tucked under her face, the other above her head. She wore a black singlet, tight across the chest. The blanket was pulled up to her waist.
She must have been cold, he thought, as his eyes came to rest on her swollen nipple, just beneath the edge of her singlet. He brushed his palm over it, firm to his touch, gratified by the goose bumps that spread over her chest.
It might be difficult to wake her.
As if of their own accord, his fingers reached under the singlet. He watched as they slid across, stopping to hold the weight of her breast momentarily, before rolling her nipple between his thumb and middle finger. He pulled the singlet down, exposing her chest. He drew circles around one nipple and leant in to lick the other, until finally taking it between his lips, barely touching it with the tip of his tongue.
Gradually, he began to suck, and in doing so, became suddenly aware of his throbbing. "Fuck." He touched himself, surprised and impressed by his hardness.
It might be easy not to wake her.
Nothing like this had ever occurred to him before. He wondered about the morality off it, interfering with her as she slept, unaware, vulnerable, helpless.
What would happen if she woke? He should wake her. He should stop.
But he didn't stop. Instead he rolled her onto her back, adjusted the singlet, and undressed without taking his eyes off of her.
Looking her over, he squeezed himself in one hand, tenderly brushing the hair from her face with the other.
It would be easy not to wake her.
"Mine." Whenever and however he wanted, she had said. Relishing every second, every breath, he pulled the blanket from her. "You must have known that I needed you, Princess?" She wore nothing but the singlet.
Tightening and releasing his grip on himself, he bent to lick her nipples again, one after the other. Whenever and however he wanted? He raised her arms above her head and holding both wrists in one hand, as he traced knuckles of the other down her centre, over her naval, tickling the inside of her thighs as slipped between them.
Whenever and however? Did that extend to this?
She stirred. He froze. He wasn't sure why he feared waking her, his hand between her thighs, her hands locked above her head, the tip of his throbbing manhood level with her face.
While she slept?
He didn't move again until her breathing had fallen back into its peaceful rhythm.
He didn't want to wake her.
Listening to her breathe and watching her face, he held her in his hand for some time before gradually increasing the pressure of his middle finger until she'd opened for him.
"Always ready, bad girl."
Taking her little hand in his, he wrapped her fingers around his girth, helping to keep her grip, squeezing the pressure on then off.
"You know what happens to bad girls, baby?" he asked, dragging his middle finger through her glistening, pleased at her body reacting to his touch.
If there were a line, he was standing on it. One step further and there was no turning back. Telling himself to stop gave birth to a groan that stemmed from somewhere deep inside him, somewhere buried by generations of denial, somewhere primal, animalistic.
