Chapter 3
“I will do what I can; officer, but I can’t promise anything. These women come in and out of my life like a revolving door. I really don’t recall many names. They are a blur of arms and legs and sometimes I can’t differentiate from one from the other I know how that might sound, but I’m just trying to be honest with you. I’m sorry for your sister. I’m sure that she’s a wonderful girl, but she just wasn’t the right girl for me. We all have lapses in judgment and I might take that to the extreme, but that doesn’t mean that I should be castrated for my love of women.” Judson was doing everything he could to defend his own honor, but it was like he was shoveling a bigger hole for him to jump into. He saw that the officer behind the one that had the sister was almost smirking. It was that attitude that made him angry, but he had seen that same look from other girls that realized that he was only in it for that one night stand.
“I think that for the time being that you should probably try to keep it in your pants, young man. I know how difficult that is going to be for you, but I think in the end a bit of abstinence will go a long way. You do know the possibility of getting some kind of incurable sexual disease is pretty damn high these days. I know what you’re going to say and that you wear gloves. That doesn’t mean that it’s 100% accurate. You need to be more careful about how you throw around your affections without any regard for anybody else’s feelings. You’ve seen what happened to your friend in there and I doubt that it’s a coincidence that she was there to see you at the time. We will look into the matter of this one young man. We will certainly keep you informed of our progress and if an arrest is imminent.” He really didn’t want to help, but his duty was to protect and serve, even if the man in question was a bit of a pig.
Officer Cameron had seen him on the field showboating for the crowd and putting on a show that was pretty much for the benefit of those girls that wanted to throw their panties into the ring
Samantha waited with her arms crossed. She had already called the press and had an over the phone interview with one of her professor’s old students. They were very interested in her story and they were going to splash the whole sordid details on the front page tomorrow morning. “I don’t want to take many pain medications. I’ve seen the way that some people get addicted and I promised myself that I will never let that happen in any way. Addictions are the bane of anybody’s existence and that is not a cross that I’m willing to bear.”
Officer Cameron had gone down the hall leaving the patrol officer to handle the protection duty of the one witness that really didn’t have much to say. She was very thorough in her statement and they even had what constituted to be something of a signifying mark. There was a tattoo of an anchor on the person’s right wrist, but that could’ve been a figment of her imagination during the attack. He would leave no stone unturned, because he was a professional and it didn’t matter what his personal feelings about Judson were. This woman deserved his undivided attention and he was damned well going to give it to her.
Judson went back into the room and saw that Samantha was not exactly immune to what was going on outside those doors. “I get the feeling like you heard everything. I have no idea how that’s possible, but maybe that might be your superpower.” He was trying to make light of a serious situation, but could see that his attempt at levity was not breaking through the anger that was coming off of Samantha in waves. “It’s not my fault that you got hurt and you should feel lucky that I was there.” He was trying to turn things around in his favor, but he was vividly aware that he was the cause for her misfortune. “Is there anything that I can do to make it better?” He heard her whisper and thought for a moment that she was trying to say something and couldn’t.
Moving a little closer, he came within earshot and then she grabbed him by the hair and forced her tongue down his throat. He was a little shocked by her behavior. This was out of character for the same meek and mild young thing that had come to him on the practice field. It appeared that her overture of passion was a little unexpected. He wanted to tell her that it was wrong, but the kiss felt like it was perfectly natural. It made him feel that they were already lovers, but the only thing that they had done, so far was consummate their relationship with more than just a kiss.
With her other hand that wasn’t holding onto his hair, she twisted the curtain to give them a little bit more privacy. She had promised herself that she was going to make his life a living hell, but then she realized that she had only one life to live. There was no sense in fighting these feelings and it was time to pursue them on a more extreme level.
Judson knew that she was acting on pure adrenaline and probably was trying to live out some long overdue fantasy in her head. He should have done something to prevent this, but the feeling of her hand grabbing his hair and using it, as a makeshift lever to keep him in place was more than enough to make him want this. He tried to pull away, but it was not with much force and certainly didn’t stop her from sealing things with a kiss.
Finally coming up for air, she was able to breathe deeply and look into his eyes to see that he was visibly stunned by this latest course of events. “I need to show you that not all women are in it for the sex. I find you interesting and you’re somebody that I can talk to easily without feeling like I am putting on airs. We may fight like cats and dogs, but that doesn’t mean that we don’t care about each other.” “I don’t know if I’m getting through to him, but maybe catching him unaware was the best way to go about it. I’m still not sure if we can make a future together, especially with this Damocles sword hanging over our heads. The person will realize that I did not succumb to my injuries and most likely will try to finish the job.” This is not like me and I feel like I have jumped into somebody else’s body. I should be trying to remain detached, but we are uniquely linked by the person that did this to me.
“I don’t know what you expect from me, Samantha. I’ve never been the one woman kind of guy and I don’t think that I could be that for you. You’re only fooling yourself into thinking that I am the kind of man that can be changed. It’s not possible and even if I wanted to, I don’t think that a leopard can change its spots. I do have to say that seeing you lying there bleeding was not one of my finest moments. I actually think that I would miss you had you perished, but thankfully you didn’t. This gives you a new lease on life and I don’t think that you should waste it on somebody like me.” Normally, Judson would be all over the fact that she was showing some kind of nightingale syndrome. He didn’t feel worthy of her affections, but he wasn’t going to stop her from throwing herself at him.
“I hope that you are hearing yourself right about now, Judson. You’re not the type of man that will push a girl away, when it’s obvious that I’m going to sleep with you eventually. You are or at least you were the type of man that would stick around, until you were able to sink that nice hard cock of yours into my tight little hole. You know that what I’m telling you is true. You need to take stock of your life and maybe then we can talk about something more than the physical pursuits of the flesh. I can say that I don’t want to and maybe it’s the medication talking, but I would really like you to straddle me and fuck my mouth.” The words were out of her mouth and she really didn’t mean anything by them. There wasn’t much pain medication, but it was enough to lower her inhibitions and make her see the truth written across his face, as plain as day. “I don’t want him to do anything and I hope that he’s a man that sees that this is wrong somehow. I can’t be responsible for my actions under the influence of these drugs. He has to be the bigger man and walk away, before we throw caution to the wind.”
“This isn’t you talking. It’s the medication running through your veins and I would be a damn fool to take advantage of that. I think that it would be best that I leave and let you get some rest. Don’t worry, I plan to come back and hopefully I will have good news about who this person is that has decided to come after me like this.” Judson felt this pull and the very idea of doing what she requested was running around in his mind. He actually thought that it would be enjoyable to take her in that way, but this was the first time that she had shown him that there was more here than just a casual dance with no pants. He was regretting leaving from the moment that the door closed. He certainly didn’t see the smile on her face or the fact that she was actually thinking that maybe there was hope for him after all.
Samantha was tempted to run after him, even if her open gown in back would give the boys on this floor a cheap thrill. This was not her, but it was taking all of her will power not to succumb and do something that she would regret later.
