Tonight was a lot of firsts for me.
First time I brought a girl back to my place.
First time I hadn't immediately drained a girl after sex.
And most importantly, it was the first time I ever felt intimate with someone before.
I'd been with a lot of women before and none of them compared to Kelly. It wasn't just the fact that I didn't feel the hunger with her. It was the way she made me feel like a human being again.
I had gone on for so many years thinking that I was less than human. A literal monster. That I wasn't meant for this world anymore. The thought of suicide was a daily thing. It was the only way to end the eternal struggle.
But after Kelly, I couldn't imagine ever leaving this world.
I stayed up all night and watched Kelly sleep. She didn't need to know yet that I could only sleep in the day time. She barely moved nor made a sound. She was completely at peace. As the hours passed and the sun began to creep up through the blinds, I wanted that moment to never end. If I ever had one wish, it would be that I could spend the rest of eternity holding her in my arms and never letting go.
Kelly stirred as the sunlight hit her face. Her eyes fluttered open and the biggest smile appeared across her face.
“How did you sleep?” she asked, stretching her arms above her head.
“Like a baby,” I replied. I sat up in bed. “Would you like some breakfast?”
“You actually have stuff to make breakfast here?”
I playfully shoved her. “Just because I don't have much furniture doesn't mean I don't eat.”
“What are we eating then?”
“Pancakes sound good?” I got up and put on my pair of boxers from last night. The thought of Kelly sucking my cock crossed my mind. If only I could last all day, I'd have her go down on me for hours.
“I'll eat whatever you make as long I get to watch you cook because I don't believe it's possible.”
“Well then prepare to be amazed. This guy has a few tricks up his sleeve.”
Kelly joined me in the kitchen as I had just finished mixing the pancake batter. She was only wearing my button-down shirt from last night that was all wrinkled now. It was only buttoned up halfway leaving a lot of cleavage exposed.
“You going to do some cooking or just stare at my tits all day?”
“If I have a choice I might just choose to stare because the view is amazing.”
“You don't have a choice because last night made me extremely hungry.”
“I know what you mean.” I poured the batter onto the hot pan and paid close attention to make sure I didn't burn them.
I placed the cooked ones on a plate and handed it to Kelly while I cooked mine.
“Do you have any syrup?” she asked.
“Check the bottom shelf in the door of the fridge.”
Kelly walked around the counter and opened the fridge. She bent over and gave me a quick peek of her bare ass until she stood up with the maple syrup. I had to press my hips against the counter to keep how hard I was hidden.
I listened to Kelly savor her first bite and it reminded me of her orgasming. This girl was very easy to please and I liked that.
“These are damn good pancakes. I had my doubts, Michael, but I have to give props to the chef.”
I joined her at the kitchen island with my own stack of pancakes. “I'm glad my skills impressed you.”
“You keep cooking like that and I might not ever leave.”
“I'd definitely like to do last night and this morning over and over again.” I slipped her a charming wink.
Kelly kicked my ankle with her foot. “I would too but I have some housework to do today.”
That seemed like a bullshit excuse to me. I was ready to give up all my plans to spend the day with her. I'd give up everything to spend the rest of my life with her. It also helped that I didn't have to worry about my hunger around her.
“Must be some pretty important housework to throw away the promise of future pancakes.”
Kelly's face turned serious. “It's my parents' house. I've been trying to renovate it and make it look like a real home.”
“I wouldn't have thought you were so handy around the house. Must be nice to work on a project with your parents.”
“Actually they passed away. They left me this broken down shell of a house and I want to restore it to what they would've done to it.”
My heart sank. “I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be insensitive.”
“No I'm sorry, I probably should've told you sooner. But we were having such a nice night and I didn't really want to think about it.”
“Hey, I totally understand. Do you need some help?” I flexed my arms. “You might need a strong man around.”
Kelly had a mouthful of pancakes and almost spit them out from laughter. “As much as I want to watch you make a fool out of yourself, this is something I kind of wanted to do on my own. To remember my parents.”
I put my hands up in surrender. “Say no more.”
I cleaned our dishes while Kelly went back into the bedroom to change. I tried to find a reason to make her stay but nothing came to mind.
Kelly came out fully dressed and her makeup touched up. She looked good enough to eat. I stopped her in her tracks and gathered her in my arms. I felt her knees weaken as we kissed.
“It's going to take a lot of willpower to let you leave here when you look this good.”
Kelly laughed and flipped her hair. “You're just going to have to survive without me.”
My missing hunger returned to my mind. If Kelly left, it wouldn't be long before it returned. I'd never gone for so long without blood before. I didn't know how my body would react.
I could keep Kelly here as my prisoner. That kind of thinking scared me. What would I be willing to do to keep the hunger at bay? She needed to leave before I did something I would regret.
“Want me to take you home?” I asked.
“Thank you but I already called a cab.”
For some reason this felt like the last time I was going to see her. I walked her over to the elevator holding her hand.
Kelly took a pen out of her purse and bit the cap off. She grabbed my hand and wrote her phone number down.
“Will you call me later?” she asked, pressing the down button.
“Nothing will stop me,” I replied.
The elevator dinged and the doors opened. Kelly kissed me on the cheek and stepped into the elevator. I felt so helpless, standing there and looking deep into her eyes. I want to memorize every bit of her face in case this truly was the last time.
The doors closed and I was all alone again.
