Mountain Man's Proposal by Lauren Wood (17)

 

Charlie

 

Fuck I wanted to ring Joel’s neck. He kept asking questions until Merle was dressed and topside where he could see her. His questions were done when he saw her because nothing he wanted to ask was going to be allowed with her standing right there. He wanted to know who she was and I wasn’t going to tell him. I wanted to get back to what the hell I was doing, but he wasn’t going away.

Merle finally went down through the hole and while I was able to get rid of Joel, I had no way of getting rid of the rock-hard rod that was in my pants.

“So are you not coming back up here Merle?”

“Got to make some money and get some dirt through the box. I will be up in a little while.”

I wanted to tell her that she had to come up. I knew that I wasn’t that sort of boss. I didn’t want to be the sort of boss that had dreams about my employee either, but that ship had sailed because she was all I could think about awake and asleep. Now I knew that she was messing with me because she needed to come up and give me what I needed.

“I think that we can take a little break, considering.”

I heard her giggle and imagined what she looked like down there laughing at me.

“What situation are we considering?”

“Well how about the fact that I’m rock hard and I need you.”

There was a pause and I checked the radio to make sure that it was still on as the silence stretch on so long.

“Considering that you made me wait before, I don’t feel so bad about making you wait.”

“When?”

Another pause. “After you pulled me out of the water and in the bath tub.”

I sighed to myself and took my finger off of the trigger on the radio and cursed out loud. I had known that she had wanted to have sex, but I thought that I would have been taking advantage of her. I didn’t think that it was going to bite me in the butt or upset her.

“You were kind of out of it. I thought that I was being a gentleman and not doing something you might regret later.”

“Well you can wait. Besides, I was taken care of.”

The last bit was said softly and it brought my blood to boil. I could still hear her moaning and coming when I was playing with her. It had been a sweet sound, one that I was never going to forget and it was clear that she had been pleasured. Now I was made to wait with a hard on that was physical discomforting. I could really kill Joel right now. This was his entire fault. If he hadn’t popped up to talk about my old divers, I wouldn’t have lost the momentum and the moment.

Merle took her time and like before I had to call her up finally when it was getting late. I half expected her to refuse me, but she finally agreed and I was waiting for her to come up and do the half-naked dance again that she had done before. Then I wouldn’t have any trouble getting what I wanted and I was ready for her to be mine in all ways. I was ready to cross the line that no boss was supposed to cross with his employee.

“I don’t think I have ever heard you so quiet Charlie.”

“You told me that you needed to concentrate.”

Merle’s face was a little red as she took off some of her equipment. “That’s because you were so distracting with the whole come back up spiel. I don’t think you know how distracting you are Charlie.”

I just shook my head. She didn’t seem to get how distracting she had been since I had met her. I had thought about all of the things that I wanted from her and it was impossible not to feel like I had been waiting for an eternity.

“Well you are done working now. You ready to get distracted?”

I moved towards her and she shook her head like she wasn’t ready for that at all. I was disappointed to say the least, but that didn’t seem to matter to her. She had made it clear. I made her wait and now she had no qualms making me wait.

“No, not yet. Why don’t we go back to your place and I will make us something for dinner?. I think that is a better place to get distracted than on this boat, don’t you?”

I tried to see it through her eyes and I was sure that I knew what she was talking about. The boat wasn’t the nicest boat, it certainly wasn’t a yacht and it wasn’t a place that felt very sexy.

“Yeah, I guess you are right.”

I would have taken her anywhere that I was able to, but if she wanted to go somewhere else, I was okay with it. I had already waited all day. I was sure that I could go a little bit longer without losing my cool.

She giggled and I don’t know why but the sound grated on my ears. I felt like she was making fun of me and I wasn’t going for it at all. If she had an idea how I felt right now and how badly I was dying to slam her down and take her, I doubted then that she would have found it as funny as she did. It was hard not to want to end my pain and madness.

I moved towards her and she had a warning on her face. I knew that she wanted me to give her some space, but I couldn’t. I couldn’t after what had happened earlier today. I was so close and I wasn’t ready to wait any longer. She had worked all day and made me wait. I couldn’t anymore. I just didn’t want to and I pulled her to me with her wet suit half off and half on. Her hair was wet, but her body was hot, as well as her lips that I pressed against mine.

“I’m done waiting Merle.”
