Anna squinted her eyes open and she found that Jack slept on her naked chest with her arms wrapped firmly around him. She smiled when she remembered how they slept together, both to them swarmed with so much desire that she didn’t know if it was possible for a human being to be that lustful. She was proud of herself for doing what she did, because if not, the sentiment would’ve been over since, the sweet feelings gone, and she might already start regretting everything. She kissed the top of his head, feeling as a new feeling for him enveloped her heart. Whatever that was, she had no idea.
She tried to get him off her chest so she could go and take her shower, get something for them to eat but he held her firmly. He mumbled some incoherent words sleepily and that made her smile, and she began to fondle his hair, “I’ll just be in the bathroom, Jack. You can sleep as much as you like, okay? I’ll wake you up when I'm done with dinner.”
When she tried to get him off this time, it was easier and she walked to the bathroom, half naked. She was taking her bath as different thoughts rummaged through her brain when she he'd the door being opened and before she looked up to see who it was, she felt strong arms wrapped around her waist as the showering water fell on top of the two of them. She knew it was Jack, his chest was a chest that even if she wanted to forget about, she could not. She smiled and placed her hand on top of his, “So, you weren’t sleeping?” She asked, and she felt the way he weakly nodded his head that was rested on her neck.
“Are you okay? You sound so weak, Jack.” She spoke calmly, almost lovingly but she knew she had to be careful of the emotions she let open in front of him because that might affect him or her later. And she knew no matter what happened, she would always be the one that would be at the receiving end of everything. She would be the one that would be badly hurt at the end.
“I need you.” His husky voice uttered shamelessly and despite the way that voice and what he had said had affected her, she tried to smile before she turned to face him.
“I don't know what I will do to make you feel better, I thought it’d be fine if we both sleep...” He placed his hand on her left bosom and that froze her in track. She looked up at him while shaking her head as though she wanted to beg him not to cause something to her which she was certain she might not be able to control if he did. “Jack, what are you doing?”
“I just want to make sure if you’re fine now.” His hand slightly trailed downward and without knowing or even expecting it, Anna felt as his finger slid into her and she gasped, which came out like a moan.
“Jack...” She whispered slowly as she placed both her hands on his shoulders as she tried to get support or else she knew she would likely fall down. The water was hitting over them, and it added more to the pressure they were both feeling. She felt the way he was slowly pulling his hand in and out of her body and that was something she had never felt in her life, she placed her head on his naked chest and moaned slightly.
She felt the way he added one more finger inside her and Anna knew she couldn’t take this anymore, she firmly held him and was shaking her head with her eyes closed. “Jack...” She whispered, her voice sounding as though it were a moan. Jack kept on thrusting into her as wildly as he could. She said she was fine now, didn’t she? He wanted to make sure of that before he could release her. She wasn't even trying to get away from him, the way her body responded, the way she responded was everything and even more.
“Are you still fine?” He whispered into her ear and she shook her head.
“I'm not, Jack...” She moaned louder when she felt the way he swiveled his fingers inside her and firmed her hold on him, “Oh, Jack, please.” She mumbled, rested her head on him neck, and when he thrusted deeper into her, Anna didn’t know when she bite his neck and Jack was sure that would give him a hickey.
He didn’t release her until he was sure that he had gotten her to her climax and even if she tried so hard and controlled herself, didn’t let him have his way with her, he wouldn’t be the only one that will suffer, it will be both of them. She couldn’t even look into his eyes when he released her, she was still holding onto his body and the water still rushing over them was adding more pressure to what they were feeling. He was the one that bathed both of them for she was still weak and couldn’t even look into his eyes.
He guided her back to the room with only a towel wrapped loosely around her body and she sat down on the vanity stool, not even looking up at him. Jack smiled and walked toward the mirror, “Anna isn’t going to look at me?” He knew what was wrong with her and he knew it was exactly the way he felt, maybe his was even worse.
“Stop talking to me,” she said with a choked voice and her eyes were barely lifting up to look at him. He was applying the lotion and they were both engulfed with silence which Anna was so much grateful for before she looked at him while she was putting on a gown, “I’m hungry, Jack.”
He took a step toward her and she glared at him, which made him stop, “For me?” He asked and she didn't know when she chuckled.
“You’re too dirty minded. Food, I want to eat.”
He smiled at her and nodded his head, “Do you want me to cook for us or we should go out and get something for our stomachs?”
She pulled her hair out of her gown and smiled at him, “Out, I need to take in some fresh air. The air in this room feels contaminated.” He chuckled and nodded his head at her.
“That isn’t going to be a problem, Ma’am. I'll be out in a few minutes.” And he walked back to his room, probably to get into his dress.
Anna slumped on the bed as her heart was still racing. She had never felt this way before. She knew that the feelings get wild, but no man had ever done what Jack did to her. She knew he was trying to push her to the limit where she had no other choice but to let him have his way with her and she had promised herself that that would never happen. He knocked on her door and she quickly mustered her courageous expression. “I'll be out in a minute.”
She took her credit card, her phone in the pocket of her jeans before she walked out of the room. “All set?” She nodded her head and Jack entwined their hands as they walked toward the door. She both hated and enjoyed how touchy Jack was getting these days. But the part she enjoyed outweighed the one she didn’t.

She was glad that they got a window seat, and she could see the passersby. It would soon be midnight, but it seemed as though the night was just starting, and she was glad about this, because this gave her a sense of togetherness. After all, she wasn’t alone, even if things went hideaway, she wouldn’t be the only one left in the world. There might be someone out there that would likely want to wipe her tears. The waiter was a lady, and a very beautiful one, she would recommend.
Anna looked up at her with a smile when she came to place down their foods, but it seemed like her attention was on Jack that was busy texting in his phone. “Jack, it seems like you’ve got a crush.” She said just when the lady walked away, and he looked up with a clueless expression on his face.
“What are you talking about, Anna?” He asked, and she chuckled before she pointed at the girl that had just walked off.
“That waiter keeps on looking at you with a soft smile on her lips. She’s probably crushing on you, don’t you think?” She wasn’t about to close her lips when the lady came back to the table and Jack smiled at her.
“Thank you, dear.” The expression a lady always gave whenever her crush spoke to her was the one that was on her face and she shyly smiled.
“You’re welcome, sir.” She said and walked off, when Jack turned to speak to Anna, she was already frowning, and he chuckled.
“What? I thought you wanted me to speak to her?” He said with a defending tone and she rolled at her eyes at him before she dived into her plate. He kept on speaking to her, but Anna wasn't even ready to listen to him, she was already fuming.
When they were done with the meal, they walked to the counter to make their payment. When Anna saw that it was the lady on the counter, Jack had already stretched out his card to her, but Anna held it back and gave her her card. He was about to argue with her when she shook her head at him and he knew unless he wanted them to fight, then he had to close his lips. She collected her card back after she was done with it and directly walked out of the restaurant, leaving Jack behind.
When Jack came out and he didn’t see her waiting for him, he smiled and walked toward the car, thinking that she had already gotten into the car. But the reverse was the case, Anna wasn’t there as well. He looked around to see where she was but as he looked even deeper, she wasn’t there. Wait, did something happen to her? He knew that she wouldn’t walk away angrily just because he had waited a bit longer in the restaurant. He began to get agitated, where was Anna? He called her line, but she wasn’t picking, and he knew this was something. Because if she was still angry at him, she would’ve rejected the call or turned off the phone altogether, but nothing happened.
He kept on running heater skelter around the restaurant as he tirelessly Dialed her number but still, no response. Dejected, he was about to go back to the car and drive to a police station to report when he spotted a smiling face in a boutique. She looked so cute while she lifted up a dress and the seller was talking to her. They both had a smile on their faces, but Anna’s smile was the most beautiful smile he had ever seen in his entire life. He felt stuck where he was, the way she turned, spoke, tilted her head backward as she laughed, was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen in his entire life. She looked so beautiful, as beautiful as he had never seen her. And she didn't have a single makeup on her face, just real and natural beauty.
He began to walk toward the boutique with tentative steps because he didn’t know what he would say to her considering what he was feeling right now in his heart. He opened the door and walked directly where she was, ignoring the question the lady on the counter was asking him. Anna had a gown placed over her chest as she turned to the nearby mirror to see whether it looked beautiful on her when she spotted him behind her through the mirror and he was just staring at her.
“Oh, so you’re finally out? How would this gown look on me?” She turned with a bright smile on her lips but instead of an answer, Jack pulled her to his chest and hugged her as tightly as he had never hugged her in his life. This hug wasn't related to anything lustful; it was just a feeling he had never felt in his life and it was exceptionally for her.
“Beautiful, it will look so beautiful on you, darling.” He tightened his hold on her and Anna was left standing, gob smacked. Darling? They weren’t acting the lovely couple, were they?
