Kalena looked at him seriously. “You’re probably right, but I’m glad we waited.”

She refocused her mouth’s attention on him and took as much of him as she possibly could into her mouth. She would have liked to take it all down, but there was just no way. A girl would need to do it professionally to be able to get all of him inside.

“You seem pretty good at this to me,” Tommy groaned.

Kalena giggled because they’d had multiple conversations about oral sex throughout their friendship and Kalena would swear that she didn’t do it right. She never thought that her skill level was where it should be. She wanted to be better at it, but it wasn’t worth the effort for her to find out. She didn’t have a ring on her finger, so there was no need for her to become a connoisseur of head.

“I’m glad that you’re enjoying yourself,” she said naughtily before she trailed her tongue down his shaft.

Tommy had to stop looking at her, because if he kept at it, he would explode soon. He wasn’t going to ruin their good time because he couldn’t keep up. He grabbed her hair and pulled her off of him. “It’s time to take things to the next level; are you ready?”

Kalena bit her lip and nodded slightly, knowing that she was more than ready.

He thought about laying her out on his coffee table, but decided that their first time needed to be in the bedroom. He stood to his feet and reached for her hand, and helped her stand. She compliantly walked toward his bedroom, her pulse racing. She refused to allow herself to think about anything other than sex with him. She didn’t want to change her mind; she wanted to enjoy herself.

Once they got to his room she removed the rest of her clothing; she felt severely overdressed. His eyes hungrily took in the rest of her body, his cock pointed toward her, and she giggled.

“Someone is excited,” she joked.

“Can you blame me?” He reached for her, laid her on the bed, and pushed her gently onto her back.

“Condom,” she warned.

He nodded and went to his night stand. He made quick work of the latex inside of the gold packet. She lay with her legs spread patiently.  He crawled between her thighs as she arched her back, offering her breasts to him. They ached for his mouth. He slowly sucked her nipples while his hand guided the tip of his dick between her lips. Slowly he pushed inside of her, stretching her as he went deep. Her nipple pressed against his chest, and the friction was delightful.

Kalena enjoyed the feeling of him inside of her; he was so big, he was one of the largest men that she’d ever been with. He eased more of himself inside. Excitement and a building orgasmic sensation bubbled beneath her surface. She was breathless and panting, and all she could feel was
him
. She pulled her knees to her chest, giving him easier access. His hips jerked forward, the head of his cock touched her womb.

“Damn, you feel so good,” Kalena whimpered.

“You want more, baby?”

“Yes.” Her legs wrapped around his waist and pulled him deeper. Her body was struck by a tiny orgasm. Her muscles spasmed around his huge cock and released her juices.

“I’m not going to last much longer if you keep doing that,” he replied. He thrusted at different intervals; she didn’t know what was coming. Sometimes he would stroke hard and fast, and then he would do it slow and teasingly. His mouth was all over her throat and neck. She moaned beneath him as he began to lose control.

The only thing that Kalena could focus on was her pussy and swollen bundle of nerves. That’s all she felt like she consisted of; the sensations that Tommy was creating inside of her drove here wild. Soon it was too much to bear, and she met him thrust for thrust. Demanding that he unleash his semen inside of her as her orgasm took over her body; it was threatening to cause her entire body to explode. Tommy joined her in ecstasy, their orgasms hitting them like a tidal wave, and they held on to one another for support as they unloaded their pleasure.

“Damn girl, I had no idea,” he panted.

“Of what?”

“That you were this… this… responsive.”

“It wasn’t meant for you to know,” she grinned. “But I do have to admit that you brought out a different side of me.”

“Hopefully I’ll see this side more often.”

Kalena froze; what had she just done?

“Whoa, relax.” He rolled onto his back and pulled her on top of him. “We don’t have to think about the future right now. How about we just take a nap for now, order some food, and watch some trashy TV?”

“That sounds like my idea of a good time.”

“See I know you well,” he said with a yawn.

 

#Chapter5

 

“Time for talking is over”

Mimi

 

It was Monday and Reggie was stressed again. One part of his life would get fixed and then another part would get shot to hell. He still hadn’t thought of a way to come up with the funds that he owed Mimi. He was most likely just going to have to bite the bullet and pull the money from his account. It was bad enough that he had to pay Tommy back.

However, he knew her type. If he gave in to her demands, she was never going to stop demanding money from him. Maybe he should have just slept with her; she wouldn’t be acting that way if he’d screwed her one last good time. A part of him wondered if it was too late to go that route. He was married and had a child on the way, but giving her what she wanted was probably the only way that he would get her off of his back for a while.

It was partially his fault for crossing the line in the first place. Letting her suck his dick was the last thing that he should have done. It was a piss poor decision and now he was paying for it in more ways than one. Screwing her again wasn’t the worst fate that he could endure. He would sleep with her one good time, have her call the dogs off, and then leave her the hell alone, forever.

Between being stressed, he was thinking about his baby. He couldn’t wait to meet his child. Honestly, he’d never truly wanted a kid. Making sure that his brother was okay was a big enough task as he was growing up, and he never wanted the responsibility. There were more than enough kids in the world. Tamika had always wanted a kid and he wanted to hold her off for as long as he possibly could.

He was on his way home because Tamika had texted and told him to make his way over. What the wife wanted, the wife got. He was out with a few of his friends, but he would have rather spent his evening with her, so he didn’t waste any time.

On his way home, his phone rang. It was Mimi. He sighed and prepared himself to spar with her verbally. Maybe he would try to see if she was open to some sexual healing.

“Hello?”

“Hi, Reginald.”

“What’s up, Mimi?”

“I know you don’t have my money.”

“I don’t, and there is something that I want to talk to you about.”

She sighed. “Time for talking is over. I was just calling to give you a little warning. You’ve always been dear to me and I would feel horrible if I didn’t at least tell you.”

“What is it?”

“You may want to check on your brother; the streets are really dangerous.”

“What is that supposed to mean?” Reggie asked.

“It means exactly what I said, because it’s rough out here, you know. I always did my best to shield you and your brother from the cold, mean streets, but unfortunately, I’m unable to do it anymore. I have to focus my time and resources to more deserving people. Your grace has run out with me.”

Reggie couldn’t believe that he’d considered screwing her and she was threatening his family. “Mimi, this is between me and you, there is no need for you go mess with my brother. I’m sure that we can work something out.”

Her only response was a slight laugh. “I already told you how it is, babe. Enjoy your night.” She hung up abruptly. His blood ran cold through his veins. Before Reggie even had time to think his phone rang again, and he answered immediately.

“Hello?”

“Hello, is this Reginald?”

“Yes it is.”

“This is Officer Bryant and I’m calling to request that you come down to the hospital. Your brother Paul is here. He has been beat up pretty bad on his way home from work. He requested that we call you.”

“Is he okay?” Reggie asked in panic.

“He’ll live. I’m not a doctor, so I can’t say exactly what condition he’s in. However, you should get down here as soon as you can.”

“What hospital is he at?”

“We have him at Mount Sinai St. Luke’s in NYC.”

“Okay, I’ll be there, thanks for calling.”

He hung up the phone and tried to hold back tears. That bitch was fucking with his family! What in the hell was he going to do? He couldn’t just sit back and let her get away with the shit. He wasn’t going to call Mimi and give her the satisfaction of knowing that she’d gotten to him. It was what she wanted him to do.

Instead, he called his wife; she immediately picked up.

“Hey baby!” Tamika said joyfully.

“Hey, I’m just calling to let you know that I’m on my way to the hospital to see Paul.”

“Why? What’s wrong with Paul?”

“He got robbed and beat up pretty bad,” Reggie lied.

“Oh my god! Do you want me to meet you there?”

“No, that’s okay. I’m going to check on him and if things are awful I’ll let you know, but the officer said that he should be okay.”

“Are you sure? I can hop in my car right now.”

“Yeah, I’m sure baby, besides you know how proud he can be. He wouldn’t want you to see him like that.”

“You’re right, but you make sure you call and give me an update as soon as you can!”

“I will baby.”

“Okay, I love you,” she said sincerely.

“I love you too.”

As Reggie drove to the hospital, he tried to think about how he was going to face his brother. He wondered if his brother knew why he’d been beaten up. If anything permanent happened to him, he would never forgive himself. Things had gone too far, and it was time for him to truly get himself
and his family
out of the mess that he’d created.

*

Reggie showed up at the hospital, told the nurse his name, and he went straight to the back to see his brother. 

He had two black eyes and apparently some broken ribs.

“Damn, bro,” Reggie said as soon as he got into the room.

“Hey to you too, where in the hell have you been? I’ve been trying to call your punk ass for the last month,” Paul said in pain.

“Really? I’m here because you get your ass kicked and you want to chew me out?”

“It seems to be the only time that I can do it,” his brother said and flinched from the pain.

“So do you know what happened to you?” Reggie asked.

“Yeah, some assholes caught me on my way from work and beat my ass for no reason. They didn’t ask for my wallet, steal my shit, or anything.”

Reggie shook his head, “Do you know where I can find them?”

“Dude I don’t even know who they are, but even if I did I wouldn’t tell you. You don’t have any sense. Who knows why they targeted me? It could have been anything. I’m just glad that I have my life, so let’s leave well enough alone. It’s just fucked up that I have to take off work.”

“I swear that something is wrong with you. Fuck that job.”

“I can’t afford to say fuck my job, since not all of us have a spouse that is making six figures. If I can’t pay my expensive ass bills, then I’m out on the street.”

“You know that you’re never on the streets as long as I’m breathing.”

“How am I supposed to know that? You don’t even answer my calls anymore.”

“Things have been crazy for me, but I’m going to do better.” Reggie said before deciding to try and make the conversation more positive. “Oh, Tamika says hi and she wanted me to let you know that she’s here for you if you need anything.”

Paul smiled. “Tell my boo that I said hey.”

“Dude you want me to break some more ribs?”

“I’m just saying that she’s too good for you.”

“I already know that,” Reggie laughed. He was happy to see his brother in such great spirits considering what had just happened to him. 

“As long as you know.”

“I have some really good news for you.”

“What is it? I could use some good news right about now.”

“You’re going to be an uncle.”

“Well, it’s about time!” he said before he winced in pain. “Shit, I’m hurting. They said that it’s really not much that they can do for me. They’ve wrapped me tight and nursed my wounds. Other than that, I’ll just be on a ton of pain killers and they’ll be monitoring me.”

“You’re gonna get some great drugs.”

“I know,” he wiggled his eyebrows. “But seriously, congratulations man. When is the baby going to be here? I have a lot of gifts to buy.”

“We’re going to the doctor next week, and we’ll be finding out all of that stuff.”

“Make sure you keep me posted.”

“Of course. So are they going to keep you overnight?”

“Yes,” a nurse said as she entered the room. “We’ll be keeping him for the next three days.”

“Three days?” Paul said incredulously.

“You hush,” the nurse demanded. “We want to make sure that you’re doing okay before we send you home.”

“I don’t want to stay in here for three damned days,” he mumbled.

“Blame it on your good ass insurance, bro. You know that if you were in here on a medical card, they would have sent you home an hour ago.”

“Ain’t that the truth?”

“Are you staying overnight?” the nurse asked Reggie. “Because your brother is about to get moved upstairs and then he needs to get some rest.”

“Did you need me to stay with you?” Reggie asked.

“Dude, go home to your wife.”

“Alright, but I will be back tomorrow.”

“Cool, see you then, and bring my laptop from home.”

“I’m not bringing your damned laptop. You need to rest, so that means no work.”

Paul shook his head, “I’ll call you in the morning and let you know what room number I’m in.”

Reggie looked at the nurse. “Can you call me tonight and let me know what room he’s in?”

“I sure can,” she said as she pumped drugs into his brother’s IV.

Reggie was about to say goodbye to his brother, but it was too late. He was sleeping.
