MICHELLE
No parent has ever spoken to me like that – and I’ve had to deal with some pretty shitty parents. How anyone could think what he did was acceptable is beyond me. My hands are shaking; he has rocked me to my core. I have no idea how I managed to sit down calmly next to him while he screamed at me like that. And the profanities…ugh! At least now I can see where Maddie gets that foul mouth from (along with plenty of other things).
Part of me wants to call child protective services on him. However he's raising her is not exactly positive. I’m imagining him sinking back beer after beer while driving his motorcycle through the night. His buddies are riding behind him in a v-formation as they go hunt down a rival gang. Guns in their pockets and bats strapped to their backs.
But another part of me can’t help but admire him. He obviously isn’t the traditional parent by any stretch of the imagination. But for a single father without a real job or career, he came. He cared about his daughter so much that he showed up to face me. Not every parent is so brave or interested in their children. He loves her, that’s for sure. And it’s clear to me that she can do no wrong. Even though we parted badly, I know she will be in the right classroom tomorrow, and I will be seeing him in two days for our progress meeting.
Two days? That’s an awfully long time to wait. I secretly wish I could see him again tomorrow – maybe even tonight if I’m being honest. I walk to my window and peek through the blinds. I can see the darkened parking lot where Cal is talking softly to Maddie. I watch as he kneels down in front of her and places a hand on her knee. I half expected him to scream at her, but he’s doing something so much better – he’s actually comforting her.
I press my hand to my heart and sigh a bit. I underestimated him.
Wait? What am I thinking? This is the guy who screamed “fuck you!” at me as he walked away! This isn’t a nice guy; he made that clear to me. But now I’m giving him a pass because I see him treating his daughter well? What’s gotten into me?
I grab my bag, lock my classroom door, and head out towards the parking lot to my car. The entire drive, I do the back and forth, debating what I'm actually feeling towards this stranger. I just can’t wrap my head around it. But I can’t stop thinking about his strong hands or the way he stepped towards me with a force like a hurricane.
I groan a bit seeing the light on in my living room as I pull up to the driveway. Erin’s home. Fantastic. All I want to do is head to my bedroom and sleep this horrific day off, but she’s going to want to chat and spend “roomie” time together like we did in college a few years back. It’s nights like this I regret living with another person.
As soon as I walk through the door, she greets me with one of her trademark, dimple simples. Her blonde ponytail whips to the side as she turns 100% attention on me. “Michelle! You’re late. Spill!”
She’s a rich girl with no need for a job. Here in South Dakota, you don’t need much, but you certainly need some and she has a lot of that some – inherited from her father. Now she lives off the profits of his business. It’s a sweet life, but it means she gets bored. And I’m the one she takes her boredom out on.
I take a moment to set down my bag and remove my trench coat before plopping down on our leather sofa. She turns the television off as she spins her body to me, looking at me like a dog waits for a table scrap. “It’s nothing, really. I just had this girl get in a fight.”
“Another one? Was it the same girl?” I’m always surprised when Erin pulls out her super memory powers. She can remember the vaguest, most minute detail like a girl fighting at school.
I nod my head and continue, “Western wanted to expel her, but I knew she didn’t deserve it. She’s got a tough life. She lives in this place. I think they call it a clubhouse. It’s where the bikers all live. The girl’s told me about it a couple of times when I’ve asked about her family.
“God, that sounds terrible. Could you imagine?”
“I met her father tonight. God, he was a piece of work. He was tall – a giant! Covered in tattoos from head to toe. His eyes were so dark they almost glowed beneath his eyebrows.” I stopped myself before I could go too far.
“So, he was hot?” She smiles at me wickedly.
“No, Erin. He certainly wasn’t my type.” I usually go for guys in polo shirts and khaki pants, not a guy in leather and ripped up denim covered in oil stains. “But he was so intimidating. He actually tried to step to me, and I think he wanted to hurt me. It was this way he stared at me…I don’t know.”
Erin put her hand to her head dramatically as she tipped it over to say, “Well, this is getting good…”
I slapped her leg, stopping her from continuing, “Oh stop it! It wasn’t like that. He cursed at me. He told me to go fuck myself for daring to discipline his daughter! Who does that?”
“Someone who wants to rock your world.” She watched me as I tried to interject, “No! Come on. Hot biker guy comes into your classroom and intimidates you. Don’t tell me you weren’t thinking about him in bed.”
“I wasn’t. I promise you that. I was just hoping he’d let me get out of there alive.”
Erin eyes me suspiciously before turning back to the television. The rest of the night was spent in a haze. My eyes grew heavy as the hours passed and my grading accumulated on my lap. By 10, I was asleep on the couch, tucked under a throw blanket Erin threw on top of me as I fell in and out of consciousness.
Suddenly, there is a knock on my door, a pounding of fists and a scream of shouts. The voice is deep like thunder, and it echoes through the empty house. I call out for Erin to get it, but she is nowhere in sight. I’m alone – completely, utterly alone.
I stand up and walk behind the couch. Something tells me I should run – or at least hide. But before I can move myself from my place, the door opens, light bursting inside. I shriek as I peer into the face of a man. He’s got a wild, unbridled look in his eyes that tells me exactly what he wants.
I turn to run, but he reaches towards me, scooping me in his arms and pulling me close. His large hands run through my wavy hair, untangling each curl as they go. He’s gentle, too gentle as he dips me back slightly for a slow, deep kiss. Our lips touch and everything inside of me becomes warm like melted caramel.
I place a hand on his chest to push him off, but my body has seemed to be taken over by his spells. They are slowly unbuttoning his flannel red and black shirt and then pulling it off his large, muscular arms. My fingers follow the lines of his red, black, and gray tattoos as if they are a roadmap.
They lead to his hands, my tiny fingers engulfed by his as he leads my hands and arms above my head. He lets go and moves to my dress. One hand lowers down and picks the hemline up. In one swift move, the dress is off, and I’m more exposed than I've been in a long time to any man, let alone this one.
I have the urge to run. This isn’t right. He shouldn’t be here in my house, in my life. He shouldn’t be seeing me in my white panties and bra with my skin glowing in the light from the still open door. But he senses my hesitation and pulls me back into him. This time, he kisses me hard and fast. My head can barely keep up with his movements as he tosses it to and from the side, attempting to explore every angle of my mouth.
His hand rests on my bare shoulder and then pushes it hard. I fall backwards onto the couch in a thud with him landing on top of me. I cry out again to Erin. I’m not sure why, though. Every part of me wants him like this. And as he slips down the side of my bra strap down my shoulder and over the soft skin of my shoulder using his mouth, I go silent. His lips head back towards my chest where he pecks gently at me, a total contrast from his kiss just seconds ago.
His mouth leaves a trail towards my breasts. With his teeth, he bites into my bra, pulling the cup down and exposing my full mountains to his open mouth. I watch as a bit of his tongue flickered towards my nipple, catching the very tip with a dab of his mouth. My hips and chest rise towards him, wanting more. He goes to the other side, repeating the same motion. His tongue softly planting itself for a millisecond, just enough for me to feel the wetness of his mouth.
I shout out, unable to control myself. He places a hand over my mouth and a finger to his lips as he quiets me. His hand keeps me silent as he goes down farther, this time taking the entire nipple into his mouth. I feel his tongue swirling around the tip of me. And then, his teeth. They gently bite down on the most sensitive nerves as I gasp and my hips flex upwards towards him, sliding up against his hard cock still concealed in his jeans.
He comes up for air, a smile growing across his darkened face. He looks at me and says huskily, “Are you gonna be good?”
“No.” I find myself replying. “I’m not a good girl.”
He contradicts me, “You’re a good girl. And good girls like you do as you’re told.”
“I’m not a good girl. I’m not.” I want to argue with him. I don’t want him to tell me what to do. I want to take the lead.
He looks at me, his eyebrow shooting upwards as he studies my annoyed face. “Fine, but bad girls get punished.” His arms move to my side, whipping my own arms upwards and pinning them in place with one of his large hands. His other hand unhooks the belt and pulls it through his belt loops. He ties the leather around my hands, hooking them in place. I struggle against him, but he’s strong. Way too strong.
With my arms stuck above my head, I begin to kick, trying to fight my way off of the couch. But he slides his pants off quickly and straddles me. I can feel the cold skin of his cock press down on my stomach as he strokes my chin with his hands. He whispers to me, “Stop, Michelle. I’ll give you what you want.”
And as he forces my legs apart, I stop my thrashing and kicking to feel the sensation as his large, strong cock slowly enters me centimeters at a time. It is what I want. It was what I was fighting for.
With a few slow pumps, he has made his way fully inside me. I’m tight, but I’m wet. And I can feel his cock fill each and every one of my gaps. He places one of my legs upon his chest, moving me to my side as he begins to drive into me in a spinning angle. It’s a sensation I’ve never felt before, but it’s deeper, harder, rougher.
All I can do is take it, grinding my hips into his as he begins to pick up a rhythm. In, out, in, out. I can hardly keep up with him, but with each push and pull, I want more. I want him more. I want me more. I bring my tied arms to my mouth and bite down on my fingers, needing to suppress a wail of a pleasure scream.
My body heats up as every bit of me loosens around him. My skin tingles and pricks, and I can even feel the hairs on my head begin to stand up on their own. Everything about his cock is magical. I push harder back, his balls hitting my ass in time with his movements.
And then, the room goes silent. He’s still pounding into me, but my body has lost all control. I know I’m calling out to him, asking him to stop, but wanting him to finish me. But I can’t hear a word or make out what I’m trying to say. It’s like I’ve become an entirely different person as that same light from the door envelopes me and the waves of his cock fucking me wash over my body.
I cry out once more – loudly. Loud enough to wake up Erin who has fallen asleep in the loveseat next to me. She turns her head side to side as she comes to. “Jesus, Michelle,” she says groggily, “what’s the matter?”
I’m panting, unable to catch my breath. I’m soaking wet in my own sweat…and juices. I look at her with eyes wide and wild as I attempt to lie. “It was just a nightmare,” I say vaguely, almost trying to convince myself it’s true.
