Chapter 34
Claire’s POV
The atmosphere was getting heated up as he ran his hands through my messy hair. I began to unbutton his shirt as we kissed at the same time but he stopped the kiss abruptly, standing up like someone who had been stung by a bee.
“I…I’m sorry. I don’t know what came over me. This should not be happening.” He stammered.
“I’m sorry too. I’ll go and get dressed.” I said, heading into my room. My plan is succeeding and I can’t help being joyful about it. Damian resisted me today, but he won’t do it for long. This is but my first step towards having him in bed with me.
I wore a casual flowing gown and black boots, with my cowboy hat. When I came back to the sitting room, he stared at me for a while, awkwardly.
“Let us leave now. They are waiting for us.” He led the way to his car and zomed off almost immediately.
“Damian, concerning what happened…” I started after clearing my throat, hoping to start a conversation from there.
“We don’t have to talk about that. It’s in the past now. It was a mistake anyway” he said, not looking at me for a second. I can tell that he is still avoiding my gaze. This is really awkward.
A mistake? Well, it was not a mistake for me. The drive continued solemnly with a deafening silence between us.
When we got to school, it was more crowded now. The time was past 9 pm, too bad that I could not even enjoy my last Prom night. I remained in the car while Damian went to bring Ethan and Scott.
We were to drive in Damian’s car and the destination was unknown to me. The drive was quite long, it lasted for about an hour. The trio conversed in the car, while I just kept quiet , looking out of the window. We got to an open field, a bit close to the woods.
We spread a woolen clothe on the floor, and made a fire. We were about to have a bonfire night. How exciting. We set down the drinks, mostly wine and settled down around the fire.
As we sat down next to each other, Damian rose and filled our glasses. Raising his wine cup, he said:
“A toast to us, to friendship, to love. We came from far and near, school brought us to each other and love maintained our friendship. We have been through a whole lot, but above all, we triumphed. Today is our last day in Windsworth College, and I am proud of each and every one of you. I am also proud of myself.”
“Let us keep watching each other’s back even after we have left this place. I am going to miss everyone of you, because you guys are a huge part of my life. Some of us may travel to various countries, but we must try to keep in touch at all times and sustain the friendship. Cheers to us!” He finalized and the clinking of glass cups was all I could here.
We shared the food and snacks, took lots of pictures and reflected on everything that had happened in the past years. It was indeed a joyous occasion. We began to drink to our fill, I never planned to drink so much but Ethan insisted. He kept filling my glass until I had to decline when my head was beginning to feel light.
The time was almost 11:30 pm. I moved away from the trio and lay down quietly on the grass, reflecting on everything that happened so far. Not still forgetting my plan of sleeping with Damian this night. I closed my eyes, to pretend like I was sleeping.
When they were tired from drinking, they packed up our stuff and kept it in the car. Damian came and tapped me severally in an attempt to wake me up but I ignored him I wanted him to think that I was deep asleep. He carried my up from the grass and dropped me inside the car at the back seat.
Along the way, he dropped Ethan and Scott at their homes and proceeded to drop me home too. I knew he was tired from the day’s events. When he stopped at my gate, he tapped me again and I manayto open my eyes.
“We have reached your house. Can you walk? Should I lead you inside?” He asked but instead of responding, I turned my head sideways and acted like I was deep in sleep.
“Nevermind. I’ll just carry you inside instead.” He locked the car door and carried me on his arms like I was a 3 year old girl. He searched my handbag for my key, unlocked my door and led me to the room. He dropped me on the bed carefully adjusting the bed covers up to my chin, to keep me warm. He sat by my bedside for a while staring into my face before he stood up to go.
I grabbed his suit jacket suddenly, pulling him down to the bed. My eyes remained shut as he sat back on the bed.
“Stay. Please stay with me. Don’t leave me here alone.” I opened my eyes gently to see him looking into my eyes. He was drunk, it was obvious. A perfect opportunity.
We stared at each other for seconds before I pulled him down and joined my lips with his own. I kissed him passionately, bringing my tongue inside his mouth. There was a fire raging inside of me, waiting to be unleashed but his touches.
He nimbled at my ear, mumbling incoherent words as he went down to my neck. I moaned loudly and our breathing pace increased. The room was dark but we did not need any form of light for what we were about to do. I unbuttoned his shirt quickly, flinging it to the floor. He pulled down my gown and unhooked my bra. My breasts was staring at him and he smiled in admiration.
He brought his mouth down to my nipples and began to suck hungrily. I moaned loudly, my body was on fire and the feeling was breathtaking.
“Dam…Damian.” I said in between my breaths.
He grunted, giving in to his primal desire. The room was getting more hot and we began to sweat. I unbuckled his belt and pulled down his trousers. He dragged off every form of clothing which remained on my body. Our lips met again in a rough kiss, which fanned the embers of passion and desire. I could see the intensity in his eyes and ragged breathing.
With the first thrust, I gripped the sheets as I moaned aloud. Then he started to move, and in seconds, I caught his rhythm. He stroked me over and over and each thrust made me longing for more. It hurt for a while but I couldn’t ask him to stop, I wanted more of him. He ran his hands down my thighs, caressing my clit.
The feeling was uncontrollable, I kissed his lips endlessly, taking his breath as mine. We were both moaning yet panting as I muttered obscenities.
“Damian, you are the best! Fuck me!…”
“You like it? You want more?…” he grunted.
He groaned as I arched my hips and lifted them up and down. I crossed my legs on his waist. He rubbed his thumb over the bundle of nerve endings between my thighs and instantly pleasure exploded through me as we both shuddered.
He groaned as he held me so tight in the last few thrusts. My body shook violently as we both reached the climax. We both led in deep breaths and he lay next to me, exhausted from the marathon.
Afterwards, we lay together in the darkness, the silence broken only by our soft, long sighs. He held me in his arms as we dozed off. I felt so fulfilled because my plans have finally worked.
*******
I was awake when Damian opened his eyes in the morning. The time was past 9 am. He blinked severally, trying to process where he was and what had happened. He sat up, giving me a strange look. Then he looked around, and saw our clothes littered all over the whole room.
His body was covered with a blue blanket and when he realized that he was naked beneath the blanket, he looked at me in shock.
“What happened, Claire?” He asked quietly.
“You mean last night? It was so magical. You stroked me to my satisfaction, it was indeed a night that I cannot forget.”
“What do you mean? I…it was not intentional. I didn’t mean to touch you, to sleep with you! I don’t even know how it happened.” Damian said as he stood up immediately, and started wearing his trousers.
“Damian, you don’t have to apologize. I enjoyed every moment that I spent with you yesterday. You should not be feeling bad. I believe we all had the time of our lives. It was very blissful.” I explained merrily.
Damian just quietly wore his clothes, taking care not to forget anything. He took his car keys and left the room without saying another word. I stared at him in confusion, wondering what the problem was.
He stomped to the sitting room angrily, left my house while banging the door and zoomed off with his car.
