Melinda....
Did I hear that right? Did he just ask me to sleep with him? Oh my god, what now? I'm frozen in place, half in shock. I come back to reality when he asks again.
Nickolas - Will you sleep with me, Mel?
Melinda - Don't you think we're moving too fast?
Nickolas - I know it sounds crazy, but I just want to be close to you for as long as possible.
Melinda - I think it's better if we don't. We might cross the line and end up ruining everything.
Nickolas - You have my word that we'll just sleep.
I know I shouldn't accept, but this man is like a magnet pulling me towards him. If I could choose, I'd never leave his side, but unfortunately humans are fickle and their relationships rarely last, and I'm scared to death of getting my hopes up and ending up hurt.
Melinda - I don't know, Nick.
Nickolas - I just want to enjoy your company a little longer, that's all.
Melinda - You probably think I'm being silly, but I just don't want to get hurt from this.
Nickolas - I don't think you're silly, and you can be sure that my intention isn't to hurt you. I like you, Mel, I really do, and I just want a chance to show you that I can make you happy. I just need you to trust me.
Melinda - Okay, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, but let's be clear, if you screw up, you won't get another chance.
He hugs me, and without further ado, picks me up. I let out a little scream of surprise.
Melinda - NICK!!!!
Nickolas - It's just for good luck.
And he carries me up the stairs. When we reach his room, he asks me to open the door, and when I do, my jaw drops at the grandeur of the place. The room is immense, everything very modern and well decorated.
Nickolas - Do you like it?
Melinda - Very much, your room is beautiful.
He puts me down and I go to look at every corner of this room, everything here is in perfect harmony, and he wasn't lying, lol, his bed really is huge.
Brad - Well, I'm gonna take a shower.
Melinda - Okay, I'll just run to Zara's room to get my bag.
Brad - No need, you can grab one of my shirts in the closet.
Melinda - But I need my underwear and I bet you don't have that in your closet, lol.
He looks at me mischievously and amused at the same time.
Melinda - Nick!!
Nickolas - What? Hahaha, I was just going to say you can grab my boxers if you want.
Nick - Okay, okay.
He goes into the bathroom laughing and I head for the closet. I pick up one of his shirts that will definitely become a dress on me, and look, I'm not small, but Nick is huge. If his friend is proportional to his size, I'm dead, lol. While I'm looking for the boxers, Nick walks into the closet with only a towel wrapped around his waist. This man is not helping my self-control. I find the boxers and walk out of the closet towards the bathroom.
I do a messy bun, take a quick shower, put on Nick's clothes and leave the bathroom. He's sitting on the bed, leaning against the headboard, legs stretched out on the bed, wearing only Bermuda shorts, exuding temptation. I approach the bed and he looks at me.
Nickolas - My favorite woman wearing my favorite shirt, the view couldn't be more perfect.
Melinda - Oh, stop it, Nick, you must say that to all the women you drag here.
Nickolas - But I've never brought anyone here. You're the first woman to enter my room and lie in my bed.
Melinda - But you told me you had your flings.
Nickolas - Yeah, I did, but it was all from the door outwards. I never wanted to set a bad example for my younger siblings. I didn't want to fill the house with women like it was normal.
Melinda - You know I admire you for that? You took the reins of the situation, and took good care of your siblings, Zara is very proud of you, she never tires of praising you, saying how incredible her brother is and works hard to help everyone.
Nickolas - But it wasn't easy, I felt alone all the time even with Mada helping me a lot. I put the company and my siblings first, even forgetting about myself. Zara was 15 years old and shut herself off from the world, we thought we were going to lose our sister too.
Melinda - But today she is well and a wonderful woman.
Nickolas - She's fine largely thanks to you.
Melinda - Me?
Nickolas - Yeah, Zara hadn't really smiled since our parents died, and she did on the first day of school while telling me that she had made a new friend, that she was feeling out of place, and sat down to have lunch alone, and you pulled Brad to sit with her and they started talking. She was so happy, and from then on she didn't stop smiling and became the girl she was before.
Melinda - I'm so glad I helped in some way, I love your sister and wish her the best.
Nickolas - You are very special, you know?
Melinda - I don't think I'm special at all, I'm just a girl trying to start over the best way I can.
Nickolas - You light up everyone around you and I will be honored to be a part of that fresh start.
Melinda - You have no idea how good your words make me feel.
He hugs me and kisses me, but this time the kiss is slow, unhurried. We're exploring our emotions with an intensity that only makes me want more. The kiss accelerates and we go deeper into each other, our connection is incredible, we fit perfectly, this must be what humans call chemistry. Nick starts running his hand over my body while the other is clutching the hair at the nape of my neck. Our breathing is ragged, our bodies are crying out for more contact, we're both very aroused and I end up letting out a muffled moan and Nick runs his hand down to my inner thighs. I need to regain my composure.
Melinda - Nick (He seems to be in a trance as he kisses my neck) Nick, we need to stop, Nick please. (He freezes, putting his forehead on my shoulder trying to catch his breath).
Nick - I'm sorry, please forgive me, I said I wouldn't do anything and....
Melinda - It's okay, Nick, it's just.... (at this point I'm dying of shame) It's just that I'm a virgin. (Nick looks at me and I swear I sense excitement in his eyes.)
Nickolas - A virgin?
Melinda - Yes, and I don't want my first time to be on impulse.
Nickolas - You're absolutely right. (and moves away from me)
Melinda - Are you upset?
Nickolas - I'm not upset, you're perfect just the way you are, it's just that this new information will make things a little more fun (he gives me a peck on the lips). Now let's lie down, I need to calm down, the situation here is serious (and he points to his friend).
He lies down and pulls me into his arms, I snuggle into his chest and he hugs me. I hear his heart beating and it calms me down in an inexplicable way. It seems crazy, but I have the feeling that I went through everything I went through just to get to this moment....
