Serenity fell in love with her best friend, Paolo, but the guy confessed that he and her coworker Carla are already in a relationship. To forget her problem, she agreed to go to the club with her friends. He met Paolo there, and because she has no self-control, she gave in and made love. When she woke up, the guy was gone. Serenity discovered it was not Paolo after he left a message with his name on it and a large sum of cash. It was Kevin's name! The guy even commented that it was wonderful to meet her again. After a month, someone contacted her, and it didn't stop until he made an offer to help her. They'll play any game he wants.
My phone rang, and I am hesitant to accept the call. Because of the financial crisis, I made a loan to lots of online lending apps, and most of the Loans are overdue.
"Hello?" I answered the phone. I repeated it after not receiving an answer. "Hello?"
"Is this Serenity Aubrey?" The caller remarked in a husky tone. My heart began to beat quicker. This husky voice reminded me of one of my past blunders.
"W-who are you?" I stammered. Even if I knew who it was, I would still check.
"Have you already forgotten?" he asked instead of telling me who. He is. "It's been a month since we made love."
My cheeks turned hot with what he said.
"Don't call me again, please." I ended the call.
One-night stand.
Just a one-night stand.
But now, I am haunted by it, and it makes me shiver.
How come this person is so annoying?
***
I raised the bottle after finishing my beer.
The music is loud around. It's rhythmic. But nothing seems to be stronger than the beat of my heart caused by sadness.
"Let's get drunk! Woo!" shouted my friend Amy.
My two other friends, Briela and Denise, also shouted. All of them have their own guys with them. They only met on the dance floor.
I put down the empty bottle and took another one. I just bit the cap to open it. it. I don't care if somebody peeks at my boobs because of my black tube top. and my denim short shorts.
I'm deafened by the music inside the bar. The atmosphere is lively, but I can't bring myself to smile.
Who would be happy if the person I've liked for a long time became my coworker's boyfriend? I thought he was approaching me because he liked me. It turns out he was secretly using me as a bridge to connect them.
I let out a sigh. That animal made me feel like the San Juanico Bridge.
I want to cry and vent my frustrations, but I chose to join my friends because they said it would be fun here. They were the only ones who were happy.
I'm not used to the nightlife.
I don't even drink alcohol, so good luck to me later. I can already feel the effects of what I'm drinking, but I don't mind. Just this once, I want to forget about him.
"Enjoy yourself, girl. Go get a life," Amy said while the man was kissing her neck. I even heard her moan as if she was enjoying it so much.
"That's right. We're here to party!" seconded Briela, who was twerking in front of the strange man she met.
She looks like a pole; her body has no rhythm.
I shook my head. I noticed the leftover tequila on the table. Out of sheer curiosity, I put down the beer and drank it. I gulped the bottle.
That's our Serenity! "Denise even clapped; I saw her on top of the guy."
What's wrong with these ladies?
I finished all of that. I immediately felt dizzy, and it seemed like I wanted to urinate because of how much I drank.
"Comfort room," I said, tapping Denise.
"Do you want me to go with you?"
"No," I replied tersely.
When I stood up, it felt like the whole surroundings were spinning. I felt like a spinning top, but I managed to take small steps.
I stepped out of the VIP room. The music I was hearing got louder.
I leaned against a door. It feels like I can no longer take a step. It feels like I'm about to collapse. I don't even know if I'm crawling, standing, or sitting. All I know is that the thing I was leaning on suddenly moved back.
I felt someone's warm breath near my ear. When I lifted my gaze, someone caught me from behind, and I was leaning against something hard. I looked up, and I couldn't believe I would see him.
Paolo!
"Paolo!" I accidentally snorted. "Why are you here?"
"Miss, you're drunk."
He gently helped me up, but I immediately held his hand.
"I'm going to the comfort...room."
"Okay, but this is not a comfort room."
"Paolo..." I feel like I'm about to cry. "Are you pushing me away?Are you ignoring me?"
"I'm not Paolo, whoever he is. Please get out of my room."
"Why? So you can be alone with Carla? Huh? Why her? Why not me instead? I'm also pretty, you know. Still sexy. What does she have that I don't? "
"I don't know what you're talking about."
"What did she give you? I can give it too. Even my body, sure, I'll offer it to you." I took both of his hands and made him touch my ample assets.
"Wait...are you Serenity?"
I furrowed my brow at his question.
"Yes. You forgot me right away? Paolo, please, don't make it for me, let's be together. You know you're my first love." I held him by both cheeks. I'm really desperate.
I hate it, but I can't control my feelings. I stood on tiptoe to kiss him on the lips. His lips are so soft, and he smells so good too. Wait a minute, it seems like his perfume changed.
"What?" He pushed me.
"Hmmm. Yes, you're my first love... Only you." I clung to his neck.
I couldn't speak when he held my cheeks.
"What did you just say, first love?"
"Yes."
I smiled when his grip tightened. I don't know. I think I'm going crazy.
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah."
"No other guy?"
"Yes."
I stepped back when he grabbed me by both shoulders and forcefully slammed me against the wall.
I cursed loudly when he did that. I enjoy it more.
He approached and whispered. "You'll regret this, Serenity. I'll sure to ruin your ass."
"I'm waiting."
He pressed his lips firmly against mine. It seemed like he was eagerly kissing me. I reciprocated even though I didn't know if I was doing it right. I don't know anything about this.
Whatever will be, will be. What matters to me is being with him, even if it's just for one night.
His kisses moved to my neck. I gasped from the ticklish sensation when he showered it with kisses.
I held him by his hair and brought his lips back to mine. I pulled him by gripping his neck and pressing his nape.
I felt someone holding me.
I felt him hold me by the waist. He spun me around, causing our lips to briefly part. I was the first to give in and kissed his lips again. Our tongues clashed, and he was so good at it that our solitude seemed to have a rhythm.
I kept backing away because of his gentle push until I lay down on something soft.
My sleepiness and desire are battling. I pulled his shirt, causing him to end up on top of me.
"Come on, f*ck me. Make me a woman, please."
He bit my left ear. "You don't need to. 'Cause it's my pleasure."
He briefly broke free from my embrace and took off his top. Biting my lip, I slid my slender fingers down his body. I didn't expect Paolo to be this macho.
He was like a lion that pounced on my two mountains and pulled down my tube until it was completely removed. My back arched as he kissed my left breast while caressing the other.
My eyes widened because his hand moved down to my sensitive area. He pulled down my shorts. He spread my thighs, played with his fingers on my underwear.
Even without direct contact, it gave me a sensation.
"You're so beautiful just like your name, Serenity."
I scratched him at his back when he massaged his fingers on treasure. My femininity is triggered by what he is doing.
"Ugh!" Even if I try to hide my excitement, I can't do it. It feels so good to be kissed by him.
I went even crazier when he pulled aside my undies and directly stroked my jewel. My emotions intensified and my back arched when he bent down and use his tongue to play.
Now I know why my friends said this is so much fun. It's so lovely.
"Ugh, hmmm." I covered my mouth with my palm to avoid making noise.
"Just say stop if you want," he said in a very sexy way.
"Don't...stop."
"You won't regret this, my love."
He continues what he's doing, so I couldn't hold back my moans.
He paused for a moment, so I was left wanting. He took off my undies. I just felt something slowly entering my private parts. It hurt so much that I screamed, but he used his mouth to silence me.
"You're very...bad lady..."
"I..am..." I agreed, "F*ck me till I can't barely walk."
He spread my thighs even wider. The slow thrusting gradually quickened until I no longer felt the pain. It was replaced by pleasure.
""I will not be gentle, this is your punishment, my love."
"Punish me more."
He never stopped pleasing me until I felt like something was about to explode inside me.
"Paolo!!!"
