"Oh God!" Chloe dropped her legs to the ground, hiding her face behind her hands.
Felicia giggled, "Oh, don't mind us. We were doing our own fiesta." She smiled at Phil and turned back to Chloe, eyes scanning. "I see you've had some fun with our Marcus, Chlolita. Maybe you can tell him not to make a mess all over my clothes next time."
"Ah!" Running out of the closet, far from her misdeeds, Chloe squealed at her friend's amusement. She stumbled about the overturned stools and struggled out the exit. She made it a block before the determined clicking of Felicia's stilettos chased her down. "Chlolita, hey! Amiga! Chloe, WAIT!!" Felicia called, stopping on the cool sidewalk.
Chloe paused on the corner of the street, panting. Her skirt caught up in the breeze of the passing cars. "Come on!" She yelled, slapping the material down and spitting out a "Fuck!"
Grace still intact, Felicia sauntered to the curb. "Ai, Chloe. Swearing now? What kinda effect I'm having on you?"
Skirt forgotten, Chloe threw her hands up in the air. "What effect are you having on me?! What do you think? Look what I just did!" She collapsed to the curb, knees squeezed to her chest by folded arms. It was at this time that Marcus decided to join them.
"Hey! Chloe? You just left me there."
Chloe could only cry in response, face buried in her folded arms. Marcus stood silent and uncomfortable, shifting his weight side to side with hands in jean pockets. Felicia looked between the two expectantly. Tension mounting, she waited no longer for the silence to break. "OK, I can't stand this any longer. Chlolita, don't feel bad. You had fun. That's the important part."
Chloe peered up at her friend, still crying. "Do you know what my parents would say?" She said through choking sobs. "I thought I could make up for the first time. Ignore it. Now look at me! I'm sitting here filthy on the street!"
Both Felicia and Marcus moved to sit on either side of Chloe. Felicia put an arm around her and poured out some old Panamanian wisdom. "Chica, it is hard. To know the difference between immorality and denying your human nature. You need to enjoy this time when you can feel so fiercely, before you dry up like an old leather shoe."
Sobs dwindling to a sniffle, Chloe mumbled, "Like you're a good judge on what's moral."
Playfulness gone, Felicia shot up from the curb. "Chloe, I think you need to suck it up. Stop being a fucking niña and own what you did." She turned back towards the bar. "I'm gonna stay with Phil tonight. I'll let you decide if you want to put the big girl pants on or always worry about your padres putting you in time out."
"Licia! Don't walk away. I'm sorry!" Chloe clamored to her feet, bumping Marcus in the process.
"I will forget it by morning." Felicia called over her shoulder. "Go home mi amiga. You've been baptized into womanhood." With that, Felicia disappeared back into the bar.
Chloe stood silent on the sidewalk. Marcus took care in interrupting her reverie, "Hey, Chloe." He approached her from the back but she didn't turn around. "Let me walk you back to your dorm."
"Don't go out of your way."
"Come on, you know my dorm is a block down from yours." He took off his coat, draping it over Chloe's narrow shoulders. She let him lead her by the elbow. The evening smell of a breezy summer accompanied them as they walked, neither saying a word. The campus was quiet, as was expected of a weekday night. Chloe didn't pull away when his fingers crawled down her arm to entangle hers. Marcus followed her up the stairs to her front door, not waiting to be asked.
Chloe fished out her keys, dropping them to the cement in the process. Marcus swiped them up before she could bend down. He stood there, spinning the keyring around his large forefinger. The jiggle of dancing metal seemed to grow louder as her discomfort grew. "I'm sorry," she said, "I didn't mean to freak out. I've just never done anything like that. I was caught up in the moment and had no idea what to do about Licia seeing us."
Marcus didn't reply, the keys still circling his finger.
"I liked it." Chloe cleared her throat. "I did."
He closed his fist around the keys, silencing them and stepped towards her. Chloe stepped back in response, lightly bumping the door behind her. "Can I have my keys, please?"
Marcus stepped forward again, leaving no room between them. Chloe held her breath as he leaned in, his cheek brushing hers. She felt frozen, unable to move away. She shuddered when his hands swept up her waist, holding her there. Chloe felt the heat of his exhale on her neck and couldn't help but shiver. "I can smell your excitement," he whispered, "Chloe, you did it." Marcus' lips pulled at her earlobe and the heat returned between her legs. "You walked all the way home with me on you."
He leaned back, hands still heavy on her hips. It began with the tip of her nose, Marcus then kissed her forehead and both cheeks. He left a trail of kisses down the tender part of her neck and Chloe came to life. She tried to wrap Marcus in a tight embrace but he stopped her. He pulled her arms down from around his neck and pressed them to her sides. Eyes boring into hers with the same intensity they had during their first encounter in the dorm room, Marcus nearly strangled her arms. "Never run away from me again, Chloe."
His grip softened at the flash of fear on her face. Deep down, at some point in her life, Chloe remembered a lesson chased by a warning. Something about men trying to ruin young women and that it was the woman's job to resist. But, she couldn't hold the thought as daring fingers stretched to find her wet desire. "Oh!" she gasped between heavy breaths.
"Your parents aren't here, Chloe." Marcus growled, "They aren't here to stop you from being what you are. You lose your mind as soon as you're wet."
Chloe's knees weakened and she inadvertently fell onto two of Marcus's thick digits, gasping louder. "Ah!" She covered her own moans this time.
Voice thick and forehead sweating inspite of the cool midnight air, Marcus continued, "I know you don't just get wet for anyone." His pace quickened, Chloe was panting now. "I have you now. You gave yourself to me in that closet. You drip when a real man handles you."
She tried kissing him and he pulled away. "No, Chloe. I want your attention. Tell me I have your attention?"
She was able to utter a breathless "Yes."
"Convince me. Look at me. Don't hide behind closed eyes."
Looking side to side, as if struggling to concentrate, Chloe took too long. Marcus shook her with his free hand and pulled hard at her from the inside. She cried out and looked straight into his eyes. He smiled a satisfied smile and continued, "Good, I don't want you to feel ashamed. Your body and mind like being teased. Forget all those years of submission to the will of those afraid of their nature. Be submissive to the needs of your body and do as your friend tells you—own it. Let me own you."
Without blinking, Chloe convulsed against the pressure of Marcus' fingers. "Ah. See. You like being owned, Chloe." Marcus pulled her close so that his lips rested next to her ear. Each word he spoke was heat on her sensitive skin. "That's twice in one night. I don't want to hear how you don't want this again. You will be proud of the creature you are."
He pulled his drenched digits from her eager pussy and made a show of breathing in her scent. "I know what your arousal smells like." Marcus suddenly pinned her up against the door roughly. "Remember you belong to me." Softening again, he kissed her sweetly on the lips and let go. He stepped down to the first step, pulled out the red thong from his pocket. "I'll have your scent with me until I see you next."
