Where the Heart Lies

Things were going so well...

This is where some of those wrestling techniques I learnt came in handy-I spun him around his back-putting myself in the commanding position and took control of my destiny and from the look on his face-his too. He began to moan and with every moan there was a squeeze on my ass-and with one swift movement a smack; he gripped, he moaned and I rode. I wanted to stop, and  treat him to the same torment-but I was enjoying this too much-I gripped the sheets tighter and moans escalated into almost screams. He move up into a sitting position and brought my legs behind him pressing our bodies tightly against each other; at this point I wasn’t able to hold back-my hips moved faster-my legs tightened around him.

“That’s right. Let go-succumb to me baby.” 

“Not a problem….” I said dug my fingers in his back and released a moan that could wake the dead-my body trembled. I was so caught up in my ecstasy-that it took his grip on my ass to remind me we weren’t finished-his moans of release increased and so did his grip-he squeeze me so hard I thought I might break-and with one final moan and thrust his grip relaxed. 

                                                                     ******

“Rach! Snap of it woman.” Ella screamed.

“Shit I’m sorry Ella.” my flashback almost cause an accident on our way to work. 

“Next time I drive.” Ross said from the backseat.

“What were you thinking about anyways?” Ella asked

“Salona beach.” I answered

“Ohh…now I get it.” she snickered.

“I don’t get it…what’s up?” 

“Just put your headphones back in and mind your own business.” I snapped at Ross.

“Yea the grown-ups are talking.” Ella said while sticking out her tongue and giggling. I threw her a look that said ‘really?’ she shrugged.

“Al right, it’s not like I want to hear you guys and your sex talk anyways.” 

“No one said anything about sex.” Ella said

“Please I’m only younger but that doesn’t mean I’m stupid.” 

“Still it’s not the time or place-and besides you know everything already. The first time-with the robe and wall. Then the beach…the car.” I reminded her.

“Oh yeah-I liked that one a lot.” she said while nodding her head- “Rachelle is a freak, a big slutty freak.” she sang. 

“Shut up please-not in front of the children.” I laughed. 

As usually, I dropped of Ella first then Ross. Things were working out ok-Caleb and I were together, its been two months since our weekend trip to Salona Beach. Ross has gotten back an acceptance letter-and to my old school Columbia-with a scholarship from my company-I’m hoping he chooses it-but he is waiting on the others. Ella has been dating some guy-but she isn’t aware that I know something is up. She has been going out of the way to make me think otherwise-playing it off as though she is going on dates with multiple guys or client meetings. But I know he will be seen in good time-either by choice or force. 

It’s also been two months since I’ve really thought about Eric and what happened that day with Max. That day did not go as planned but Eric did keep his distance, no messages, no cards or flowers and I haven’t been kidnap either and things with Ryan seemed to have died down too. He backed off Ella and I two weeks after the altercation in Ella’s house. Not a 100% sure if that’s good or bad-but things are going so well I don’t want to jinx it by thinking negatively. 

I got to work and saw a few persons crowded in the coffee room-I looked to see what was so curious-and there was a news report about some gang related activity, i knew it was Eric's gang and I didn’t want to hear any of it-so I turned to leave the room. 

“There are reports that during the shoot out some members the gang were killed and possibly more injured. At this moment, there is no confirmation on the number. At this time the Police authorities are  not releasing information on the nature of the situation. But they have asked if there are any witnesses or that can assist the authorities in identifying the other members please contact your local Police Department.”

Two months, could this be the same deal Eric was talking about- I have nothing concrete but my gut is telling me something is wrong. Killed, injured? Eric! I screamed his name in my head-was he hurt? I felt myself become dizzy-and beginning to hyperventilate as I mind swarmed with all these questions. What if he one of the ones that are lying in a mortuary. 

“No!”  few persons looked up at me. I didn’t bother to give them a excuse for my reaction I turned and went directly to my office closing the door behind me. Pacing back and forth I wondered what to do. The last time I saw him-I wanted to kill him for hurting me. I went to him to tell him how I felt about him and just showed me the door-told me I was a bother and to get out-so why the hell should I care now. I shouldn’t, I don’t. My life is finally going well-I don’t him screwing things up now, being hurt or dead.

Maybe just a call to see if he picks up and then I hang up. Uggh…that is ridiculously juvenile Rach-besides it wont work he’ll know its me. I fought with myself until lunch-then I had the idea to find that Penthouse and see if maybe Lee knows something. Yes, that was great plan, thankfully he told me where I was that day I skipped work.

                                                                            **

“Lee-hey its great to see you.” I reached out and gave him a hug, I hadn’t realized how much I missed him. We didn’t spend that much time to together-but he has such warm loving soul you could help but love him. 

“Its lovely to see you again Ms. Berg. But I’m sorry Eric is not here at the moment.”

“Oh he’s not. I just heard there was some trouble and I wanted to know if he was ok.”

“I have not heard anything. Shall I tell him to call you when he returns?”

“No. I mean that’s ok-actually I rather you not tell him that I wasn here at all.”

“I understand.” he said with a tight smile.

“See you around Lee.” I said as I got back into the elevator. As the door began to close Lee’s hand stopped it-letting the doors open again.

“I know its none of my business Miss-but he does miss you. And it saddens me to see such a great man lose something so precious. I just thought you should know.” 

“Thank you Lee, that means a lot.” I leaned in a placed a kiss on his cheek. 

And the elevator doors closed with him smiling. He misses me, Lee’s words played over in my head like a broken record-this is not what I came here for-not for feelings and pain-information and that’s all I reminded myself.
