Chapter Two

Jet

 

It seemed to me that I was addicted. That's right, I was a full on addict, and I didn't even care. I may need to get some help eventually, but for the time being I was more than okay with being addicted. My drug of choice was always within reach, I never had to give it up, so I wanted to be able to keep it. My drug of choice, of course, was Natalie, and she was one person that I could not get enough of. I was pretty sure that she felt the same way, but she was still a mystery to me, and I wasn't always entirely sure that I had won her over.

The past few days had been incredible, spending time with her, and the sex had just been out of this world. She really seemed to be opening up to me in the bedroom, and I couldn't ask for anything better than that. I was happy--better than happy; I couldn't imagine my life without the girl at that point. She was perfection, and I wasn't sure how I had become so lucky to have her.

That morning I was due to pick her up at her apartment, and from that point we were planning on going to the school. Natalie had been asked once again to decorate the school with the art students, and she had asked if I wanted to come along. Truth be told, I wanted to be around her every chance I got, so at that point, I would have agreed to do just about anything if it meant we could hang out.

I dressed casually in jeans and a hoodie, and headed to the kitchen to grab some food. Kyle was making bacon and eggs, and I loved the fact that he was always up before me, and making food. I never seemed to have the time to cook huge meals. I was more of a grab-and-go kind of guy. I would grab fruit or granola, and head out the door. But Kyle loved breakfast, and always made sure he had time to have a good meal.

“Hey man, want grub?”

“Yes, that would be fantastic, thanks.”

He set the bacon down on the table and started making some eggs. I picked up a couple of pieces of bacon and popped them into my mouth. The salty flavor made me really happy. I grabbed another piece of bacon as I watched the eggs sizzle. Kyle flipped them over and got a couple of plates out. He popped eggs on the plate and set some toast down on the side of the plate.

“Thanks, man.”

“Yeah, no problem.”

I broke open the yolks of my eggs with the toast, and soaked them. I popped the pieces in my mouth, enjoying the flavor. It was a great start to the day, and it was about to get better the moment I saw Natalie.

I finished my breakfast and rinsed the plate in the sink.

“I gotta run and get Natalie. I'll see you later.”

“What are you guys up to today?”

“I'm just helping her out with a thing at school. No big deal, but she asked me to help, so I'm going to.”

“Sounds boring, man.”

I laughed. “Maybe the task, but being around Natalie definitely isn't. I love hanging out with her, so it doesn't really matter what we are doing.”

Kyle just shrugged, and I took that as my cue to get out of there.

I headed out the door and down the stairs to my car. As I was driving to Natalie's place, I started wondering if I could sneak her away to some janitor's closet in the school to have my way with her. I wasn't sure how she would feel about some kinky action, but I was sure it wouldn't be too hard to convince her of it. Like I said, she was becoming quite the little firecracker in the bedroom, so I had the feeling that between the two of us we could have a pretty steamy sex life if we put our minds to it. I had no issue with helping her out for the day, so maybe she wouldn't mind a little side action at the school. The more I thought about it, the more excited I became.

I pulled up in front of her apartment and ran up the stairs to her apartment door. She opened it immediately. I went inside and pulled her close to me. Our lips joined at once, and when I felt her tongue touch mine I almost lost control.

“Whoa, down boy. What got into you?”

“Awe, babe, I just love kissing you.”

“Mmm, well I love kissing you, too.”

“Are you sure we don't have time for a little bedtime play before we go?”

She giggled. “I would love to, darling, but it's just not going to happen. We have to get going and get this stuff done. I know it's not the most exciting thing you could ever do, but nonetheless, we’ve got to do it.”

“It's okay, Natalie, I don't mind helping, and I know it will be fun, because we're doing it together.”

“Really? That's how you really feel?”

I laughed. “I would rather do anything else but school activities, but I also don't want to be apart from you. So let's get going.”

She smiled at me and pulled my face to hers again. We started making out, our kisses growing even more passionate as we stood at her door. I had to really restrain myself from tearing off her clothes right then and there. She was so beautiful and sexy, and I wanted to try her in every position I could possibly get her in. My mind was going in circles with all the things I wanted to do to her, but I had to focus on behaving myself for the time being.

She turned from me and went to grab her purse on the counter. We headed out the door and went down the stairs. We got in my car after exiting the building.

When we arrived at the school, I followed Natalie to her classroom. There were probably about 30 students there, waiting to get started on the project.

The dean had liked what the art students had done for Halloween so much that she put them in charge of making sure the school looked festive for Christmas. Natalie had spent a week with the students devising what was to be showcased throughout the school. They had some original pieces that were going to look incredible. We had one of the most authentic designs in the entire city, and there weren't any other schools in the area that allowed their art students to have control over decorating the whole school for the holidays. Not only did the dean want the art students to decorate, but she insisted that Natalie be in charge of the project once again. Natalie had been quite proud of herself for getting such an honor, but I had to say that maybe I was even more proud of her. She seemed to be doing really well in her program, and I saw bright things for her future. I just hoped that I, too, would be one of those bright things she wanted for her future.

The students had made various art creations. Some were canvases and others were sculptures, but they were all in the Christmas theme. Some of the canvases were over 10 feet tall, and were incredible. I had never paid much attention to art prior to knowing Natalie, but now that I was suddenly immersed in it, I was amazed by the talent all around me. The school was known for its great art program, but I had never cared before Natalie. Now I could see why the program was so popular.

I went to Natalie’s side and kissed her on the cheek. She smiled at me, coming in close. We kissed right there in front of everyone, and I didn't have a care in the world. A few of the students started clapping until we stopped. Natalie blushed a deep red, and it was so endearing that I kissed her on the cheek.

“We should get going so we can get done.”

I nodded. “Whatever you say, baby.”

We went around the campus with the crowd and started dispersing the decorations everywhere. By the time we were done, it looked like a modern-day Christmas wonderland all around campus, and it was just what everyone needed to start to get into the Christmas spirit.
