KELLI. Rubbing lotion on my legs always made me smile. I worked hard to keep my legs in great shape. Even though running was difficult for me, I always ran. Eventually, I ended up with shin splints but I kept running, even with the pain. I often wondered if there was something wrong with me, because the pain seemed to motivate me. Working the lotion up my thighs, I flexed my butt muscles as I rubbed in the lotion. My butt felt so good in my hands.

My legs, thighs, ass, and pussy were so smooth. I shaved with a two-day-old five-bladed razor. I loved shaving with a fairly new razor. New razors always seemed to eventually cut me, but when one was a just a few days old, I loved the feeling afterward. Rubbing in the last of the lotion, I thought of Erik, and what he might think if he were to feel my legs tonight. I began to think of him, as my fingers slid up the inner part of my thigh. I felt a tingle, and I could feel the blood beginning to rush....Jesus, it’s getting hot in here. I itched for him. I couldn’t take it anymore. His text message with the list of suggestions was getting to me.

Right before I had left the coffee shop, he had sent me a text with a series of questions. His text, initially, kind of freaked me out but the more I read it, the more it kind of turned me on. I imagined that he knew exactly what he was doing and that he did it for a reason. His text was long and had a series of questions. As I read the questions, I became really uncomfortable in the realization that I was as comfortable with the questions as I was.

Erik Ead: Let me ask you a few questions. Think about these, Kelli, but do not respond. Be prepared to respond tonight. This isn’t a list of my wants, needs, or desires. It is a list of questions. Be prepared to answer how these questions make you feel. Whether or not reading them makes you want to immediately rush out and do each of the things isn’t important. I want to know how they make you feel when you think of them. Make no assumptions on how I expect or desire you to answer…

You’re standing in front of me with my arms around you. I look you in the eyes, and place my hands on your shoulders and say, “Get down on your knees, you sexy little whore, and suck your daddy’s dick like a good little girl.” Turn-on or turn-off?

We’re in a movie theatre watching a movie. You’re wearing a dress. The movie theatre doesn’t have that many people in it, but they are scattered about. I lean over and whisper in your ear, “Slide over here, Kelli, and get on my lap. Ride my cock. Fuck me, Kelli. Fuck me now.” Turn-on or turn-off?

We’re driving down the street, it is daylight. We’re in the city, in traffic. I tell you to suck my dick as I drive and that I want you to swallow my cum. Turn-on or turn-off?

You’re down on your knees, giving me head. My hands are resting on your shoulders. I tell you to look at me while you’re sucking my dick. We make eye contact. I slowly slide my hands to your head, and begin forcing myself in and out of your throat, making you gag on me until your eyes water. Turn-on or turn-off?

We walk in the bedroom. You’re wearing a dress. I step behind you. I place my hand on the small of your back and the other around your cheek, cupping your face. I turn your face my direction, and I kiss you. As we kiss, I slide my hand from your back around to your hip. With my other hand, I push your upper body down, bending you at the hips. Not a word is spoken. You bend at the hips, you hear my belt unbuckle, and pants drop. I lift your dress, and force myself into you deeply. Quickly, I begin to fuck you with such force that my balls are banging against your clit and my hips are slapping against your ass, forcing you into the bed. As I am fucking you harder and harder, my hand slides from your hip to your neck. You feel my hand tighten around your throat as I continue to shove you full of cock…turn-on or turn-off?

I read each one of them and read them again. Reading all of them turned me on. The more I read them, the more turned on I got. A part of that feeling, I was sure, was because of who sent them. The other part of the turn-on was what the questions were asking me to do or to consider doing. There wasn’t a part of the questions that didn’t turn me on. Just asking those things turned me on. Also, I began to wonder, as deep, mentally, as Erik was…if he wanted to know if it was a turn-on for me to read it, or if it was a turn-on for me to think it, or if it was a turn-on in my mind for me to actually do it?

I decided yes to all of the above. I was ready to discuss this with him. I wanted to perform for him, and I wanted him to be happy with my performance. I wanted to have him push me to my knees and force himself on me, telling me, Get down on your knees you little whore, and suc…The thought of it made me begin to get comfortably uncomfortable.

I have never been so concerned with what someone thought about me. I have always, in a way, used guys for sex. I have always used them to get what I want, and I have always left them before, or just as soon as, they decided that they were falling for me. I never wanted them to perceive me as being ugly, or awful sexually, but I didn’t really care, for the most part, what they thought.

Trying to decide what to wear has always been a task for me. Tonight, I walked to my room, picked out a summer dress to wear, and got dressed. Panties or no panties? Decisions, decisions, decisions. No panties. Flats or heels? Flats. Hair up or down?  Down. Now, standing in front of the mirror, I looked for any imperfections. None. I checked my phone and found no messages. It was six o’clock. Maybe he got hung up at the biker card game thing. I took off my dress and sat on the couch in my flats and bra. I no more than sat down and the phone beeped.

Erik Ead: Call me

I pushed dial and immediately called him back. It rang twice, and he answered.

“Good evening, Kelli.”

“Hello. How was the motorcycle ride?” I asked.

“It was a great ride, thank you. Are you ready?” he asked.

“Yes, I am.”

“Are you home?”

“Yes, sir, I am home.”

“Come out front, I am parked in front of the front door.”

“You know where I live? You’re here?” I asked as I looked out the window toward the street. From the third floor, I could see the street and almost directly in front of the door I saw a black BMW M3 parked there. I wondered if that was him.

“Yes, and yes,” he responded.

“But…okay. I will be down in a second,” I said as I grabbed my purse and raced for the door.

I realized I wasn’t dressed yet and ran back to the couch and got dressed.

Erik drives me crazy.

As I got into the elevator and pushed the button, I wondered if that was him in the car or if he was on his motorcycle. I never thought to ask. I began to wonder about the series of questions that he texted me, telling me, think about these Kelli, but do not respond. I also remembered that he asked those three weird questions. Chopsticks, grapefruit, and going on interracial dates. Weird. He said he’d explain later, but he didn’t. Not yet, anyway. The elevator reached the street level, and I exited and walked toward the door that led to the street.

As I got to the front door and opened it, I could see him through the windows of the car. It was a black BMW M3. I looked at the back of the car for the badge of my father’s dealership, but I did not see one. I reached for the passenger door, and I noticed him lean over and open it for me. As the door came ajar, I finished opening it and got in.

“Good evening, Kelli,” he smiled as he spoke. He smelled so good.

“Good evening. First things first. What are you wearing?”

“Jeans, black leather shoes, and a grey V-neck tee,” he responded, motioning to his clothes with his right hand.

“No, the cologne. It’s wonderful.”

“Oh, I see. Yves St. Laurent, L’Homme.”

“Well, whatever it is, I love it.”

“Buckle your seatbelt, Kelli. And thank you,” he said as he pulled away from the curb.

As I buckled my seatbelt, I studied him. He was focused on the road and speeding up slowly, shifting gears with the paddle shifters on the steering wheel. I had seen enough of these cars in my father’s dealership to know what he was doing and what this car was capable of doing. It was basically a race car for the street - and fairly expensive for a guy who lives in a shitty house in Bel Aire.

His jaw was tight as he drove. His strong chin slightly lifted and with his hands tight on the wheel, his biceps flexed each time he turned the steering wheel or shifted. I was becoming lost in watching him. Watching him just drive was enough to satisfy me. I didn’t know what he was doing to me, but he was doing it really well.

“So, what are we doing, Erik?” I asked as I watched him turn the corner.

“We’re getting to know each other, Kelli. We’re beginning a relationship that will consist of a friendship with sex, but no commitment on either of our parts to be in love with the other person. In this relationship, sexually speaking, I will be dominant and you will be submissive. And Kelli, I will fuck you within an inch of your respective life.” He turned and smiled as he said the last part.

His smile and the direct gaze in my direction lingered for a long moment. I began to feel hot. I started to feel an aching in my groin, and I quickly remembered that I was not wearing panties. I started to daydream about having him force me to my knees and talking dirty to me.

“So, uhmm, what was the deal with the questions?” I asked, turning to him to see his expression.

“Which questions, Kelli?”

“Well, let’s go with the grapefruit and stuff first,” I responded.

As he sped up through the traffic, he began to speak. “Those, Kelli were just a series of questions I asked you to allow me to understand about what type of person you are without spending a month or two doing so. Believe it or not, they tell me a lot about who you are, not so much what you are.”

“The chop sticks. That question tells me whether or not you’re a person that has determination. Whether or not you stick to things and apply yourself, or if you give up and or get bored easy. Most white people are not born with the need to use them, and if they develop a means of doing so, it is because they decided to master the task, and spent the time and effort to do so. If they have mastered it, it means that they’re determined. If they can’t it doesn’t mean they aren’t, but it may. Understand?” He turned to me as he asked the question.

“Yes sir.” The word ‘sir’ just came out so naturally. I didn’t even realize I said it until after it rolled off my tongue. It made me a little uncomfortable knowing and seeing the power this man was going to have over me.

“The grapefruit question. If you haven’t ever eaten one, it wouldn’t mean anything necessarily. This question lets me know if you’re naturally willing to eat something that most people find repulsive. Grapefruits taste sour. They’re somewhat bitter. People that eat them generally eat them because they know that they’re good for them, or because they want to be in good health. It tells me if you’re someone that is willing to, in a sense, make sacrifices for the betterment of yourself. Make sense?” he asked, as he turned toward the parking lot of an outdoor strip center.

I nodded, very intrigued by Erik’s deep mental nature. The fact that he was so much different than anyone else I had ever been around made me want to know so much more about him. He actually thought about what he said and what he was doing instead of just doing and saying things for the sake of doing them. I had never been so intrigued by anyone. I had never wanted to just open someone up and see all that they had to offer as much as I wanted to do with him, regardless of the amount of time that I had been with them. I had been around Erik for two days, and I wanted to spend whatever amount of time was required to get to know him. As I stared at him in admiration, he began to speak again.

“The last question was more obvious. The interracial dating, and with an African American man, let me explain. Most of society, right or wrong, perceives a black man with a white woman as being wrong. I am not saying that it is, I am merely saying that’s the general public’s view. So knowing this, if a white girl has gone on, or will consider going on, a date with a black man shows me, or tells me, that she is open-minded. That she will, regardless of what society thinks, go with what she feels in her heart. That she is open-minded. That she is not easily swayed or convinced to do what society wishes that she do. She is an individual. Understand, Kelli?” he asked as he parked the car in the lot.

I looked around to see for sure where he had taken us to. I had been staring at him during the entire trip and was not certain of where we ended up. I quickly recognized that he had driven to Bradley Fair, which was an open shopping and eating environment that had several nice restaurants and a lake with a walking path. I was surprised that we had arrived here so soon. I felt as if I was in some form of a trance during the trip, because I hadn’t really noticed that we had traveled the ten miles or so to get here from downtown. I was so intrigued by Erik that I had lost all track of time.

“Yes, I understand. I find you to be quite interesting, Erik,” I said as I reached for the door handle.

I found myself, when talking to him, to be more conscious of my words, more conscious of how I said things. Not necessarily what I was saying, but how I said it. He was intelligent, very intelligent, but he did not act like it. He dressed like a younger guy, rode a motorcycle, and tried to speak like he was just one of many men in this city. By just naturally being Erik, he reeked of his intelligence. I felt like such an idiot around him. I tried to choose my words carefully so as not to embarrass him or me. This was so unlike me. I was almost always the smartest person in the room and always the smartest girl. Around him, I felt so small, so vulnerable.

I opened the door and got out. He got out at the same time and leaned over the top of the car, looking at me. As he smiled, I noticed that his face had become more tan, probably from the motorcycle ride all day. His skin was tan, but lacked wrinkles. His face was just like he was; rugged, handsome, intriguing, and gorgeous. I could stare at this guy from now until the end of time.

“Well, what did you decide?” he asked in a raised tone of voice.

“Uhhm, excuse me? About what?” I responded.

“I asked you where you preferred to eat. You stared at me and didn’t respond.”

“Oh, I am sorry, I wasn’t paying attention. Or something, I, uhmm, didn’t hear you.” I couldn’t even believe I said that. I sounded like a fool.

“Ok, I will decide,” he said, as he turned and scanned the horizon of buildings.

“Il Vicino. How does that sound?” he asked, motioning to the Italian restaurant in the corner of the parking lot.

“Sounds great. I love that place.”

I walked around his side of the car, toward the restaurant. As I got closer to him, he extended his arm and placed his hand in front of his belt, positioning his elbow out, away from his body.

“Hold onto my arm, Kelli. Walk beside me, holding my arm. Always walk on my left side and always hold my arm, understand?” he said as he looked over his shoulder at me.

I walked to his left side and wrapped my right arm through his extended arm. As we walked side by side toward the restaurant, I felt warmth, a certain comfort that I have never felt. I felt like he had me here, positioned beside him, to protect me. To make sure that I was comfortable with him, and that I knew he was not only in charge but that he wanted everyone else to know it. I was falling for this guy and I was falling fast.

He had told me not quite twelve hours ago that he was going to own me. He may or may not know it, but he already did. He could tell me to do anything, right now, and I would do it. All of those questions that he asked me in that long email; I would do every one of them right now. This guy had a certain presence about him, a certain power. He didn’t express it, he wasn’t pushy or arrogant, but I would do whatever he wanted.

Pleasing him would make me so happy. As we walked toward the restaurant, I began to wonder if I could actually please him. What if I couldn’t? What if I tried as hard as I could, and he laughed at me? What if he told me I wasn’t even good enough to be his fuck-buddy? The thought of that began to make me feel ridiculously uncomfortable. As I stumbled over a hole in the parking lot, I realized that we were at the entrance of the restaurant.

“You alright?” he asked.

“Yes, I didn’t see the hole in the lot, sorry,” I smiled as I responded. Walking through the entrance, I smelled him again. The smell made my mouth water. The smell made me want to please him.

“You’ve been here before?” he asked me, nodding toward the menu.

“Yes, several times.”

“Well, Kelli, do you know what you want?”

Looking over the menu, I decided to get the Cobb salad. It was a great salad.

“Yes, I do,” I responded.

The restaurant was a fairly nice Italian restaurant; but the format for it was unique. There was a menu at the entrance, and a cashier at a bar. You ordered at the cashier, went to your table, and they delivered your food when it was ready. After you initially ordered your food, it was like any other restaurant, with wait staff to assist you. We stepped to the cashier to order our food.

“Go ahead, Kelli,” Erik said as we stepped to the bar.

“No, you go ahead, I am thinking.” I had no idea why I said that, but I did.

“I will have the Cobb salad,” Erik said, “and a glass of tea.”

Shit. Now, if I ordered the salad, it would look like I was copying Erik. I didn’t want him to think I wasn’t an individual, especially after all of the questions that he had asked me. Damn it, I really wanted that salad. I stood there and thought, trying to decide what to do.

“Kelli?” he said as he turned and looked at me.

“Uhhm. I will, uhmmm, have the lasagna,” I said, not even thinking. Surely they sold lasagna; it was an Italian restaurant, after all.

“And a glass of water,” I added.

Erik paid for the food, and we walked to the outside seating area. Watching him walk was hypnotic. He had a very mechanical walk, as if he were programmed to do it. He stood very erect and moved his arms a little bit, but not too much. He looked straight ahead, but his eyes were attentive to all of the things around him. I enjoyed watching him walk. I daydreamed about watching him walk the length of the parking lot.

The outside seating area consisted of a patio that was surrounded by a stone fence, and trees, open to the outside and sky. A sidewalk separated the seating area from the parking lot. As we picked our table and I began to sit, he pulled my chair out from the table for me.

“Thank you,” I said. He nodded at me and sat down. As he sat down, he placed the receipt for the food at the center of the table.  I noticed that he had folded it into a neat square.

“What do you want to talk about?” I asked. Immediately after I asked the question, I felt stupid. I felt it was kind of sophomoric of me.

“You choose, Kelli,” he responded.

I thought about what we could discuss. I didn’t want to talk. I wanted to eat and fuck. I didn’t even want to eat, I just wanted to fuck. I wanted to show Erik what I was able to do, sexually, and hopefully blow his mind. Making him happy and pleasing him more than he had ever been pleased was at the forefront of my list of things to accomplish today. I decided there was a subject we could talk about, if he would. I decided to try again.

“What about that long text you sent me, the one with all of the sexual questions? What was all of that about? More psycho-babble stuff?”

“Well, let me ask you this first, Kelli. How did reading the questions make you feel, as a whole?” he responded.

I thought about how to respond. I didn’t want him to think I was some weirdo, but I did want him to know I was a sexual freak. I decided to be totally honest, let him know what I thought, and how they made me feel, and have him decide what was wrong with me.

“Every one of them turned me on. They made me think, and they made me horny. I answered ‘turn-on’ to all of them, mentally. And, the more I thought about them, the more I wanted you to be with me, so we could be doing all of those things,” I answered as I crossed my legs.

I thought about it after I had responded and realized that he didn’t say that he wanted to do those things, he was just trying to decide what type of person I was, probably sexually. I really needed to start thinking before I spoke.

“That is interesting, Kelli. Every one?” he asked, removing his hand from holding his chin, gesturing toward me with his open palm.

“Yes…every one of them, Erik. I do not know how you selected those questions, or what they may mean to you, but each one of them not only sounded exciting, but also made me very comfortable with what you might want me to do. Are all of them a turn-on or a turn-off for you?”

I decided to try to use his name more when I spoke to him. He did it to me all the time, completing sentences with my name, or preceding a thought or a sentence with my name. I liked it. I liked it a lot. So, maybe if I did it to him, he would like it as much as I did. I crossed my legs the other direction as I waited for his answer.

“They’re all a turn-on for me, Kelli, especially if they’re a turn-on for you. Contrary to what you or anyone for that matter thinks about ‘dominant males’, I am probably different from that common stereotype. I want, ultimately, to please you. Making you happy makes me happy.” He paused, took a breath and started speaking again.

“The thought of disappointing you makes me uncomfortable, extremely uncomfortable. Additionally, the thought of making you uncomfortable sexually, or in any way for that matter, makes me feel terrible. The one advantage I have over many men is that I have a great understanding of human nature. I know, for the most part, what it is that you want, need, and desire. Maybe more so than you do.” Erik stopped speaking as the waiter approached.

“Water, tea?” the waiter asked. I raised my hand and mouthed the word water to the waiter.

As the waiter walked away, I said, “So, pleasing me makes you happy? You want to…”

“Kelli, stop.” Erik interrupted me in mid-sentence. “Stop speaking. Come and lean over here, Kelli,” he said as he leaned to the middle of the table.

I leaned forward, wondering what I had done wrong. I hoped that I had not made him mad, that I had not disappointed him, or made him uneasy with my answers or my questions. When I leaned to the middle of the table, he moved my hair to the side and spoke into my ear. As he spoke, his breath went into my ear and made me shiver. When he did this, it made me feel weak and instantly made me want him.

“Who, Kelli, owns you? Right now, right here, who owns you?” he asked.

I felt a lump in my throat as I started to answer. I opened my mouth to answer, but the words came out as a whisper and a squeak.

“You….you do. You do, sir.” The words were barely audible.

“Kelli, who owns you?”

As he asked again, he took the finger from his free hand and started sliding it back and forth across my right nipple. I felt as if I was being shocked. Oh my God, what was he doing to me? Whatever it was I loved it. I felt like I was going to vomit from being so excited. This was a degree of feeling and emotion that I had never felt before. He had me more excited by whispering these things in my ear than I had ever been by actually being physically intimate with a guy. He made me feel better sexually, by whispering things to me…these things, more so than any other man had made me feel by actually touching my flesh.

“You do, Erik. I am yours. You own me.” I leaned my head to one side and looked up into his steel blue eyes as I answered.

I had no more than made eye contact when he slid his hand from beside my face, and held my hair, to the base of my neck. Cradling my neck in his hand, he squeezed my neck and turned my head back to where it was. Continuing to hold my neck in his hand, he began to talk again, softly whispering into my ear.

“That’s a good girl. Yes, I do. I own you. You’re making me proud of you with your answers, Kelli,” he responded. His mouth was almost about to touch my ear. His warm breath against my ear and neck made me shiver again. Although it was eighty degrees outside, I felt goose bumps rise on my arms and legs.

“Now, Kelli, what are you going to do when I ask you to do something? Something sexual? What are you going to do?” he asked.

Each time he spoke, his hand tightened on my neck slightly. When he was done speaking, he would release my neck from his grasp and cradle it in his hand.

“Do it, without hesitation. Do it,” I said. The words came out of my mouth immediately. They actually came off of my tongue before I even thought about it. He was amazing at getting into my mind. I crossed my legs the other direction again. As I did, I could feel myself running down my leg and down the crack of my ass. I was so wet that it was running down my legs. I re-crossed my legs, and as I did, I actually heard the wetness.  I hoped that he hadn’t heard it. This was embarrassing. I felt as if I was putty in his hands as his grip loosened from my neck.

“Continue,” he said, and leaned back into his chair.

I didn’t want this to end. This was better than sex. Oh. My. God. No, come back; squeeze my neck, whisper in my ear. How could he do that? How could he, in the middle of this, just stop and lean back into his chair? This was more than I could take. Naturally, I crossed my legs again, trying to become comfortable. I heard the squishing sound of my wetness and felt it running down my legs. Oh shit, I was wearing a dress. I was going to have a wet spot.

“Hold that thought, Erik. I have to use the bathroom,” I said as I stood.

I walked inside and made my way to the bathroom, feeling as if I had spilled something all over my lap. I grabbed a handful of paper towels from the dispenser and went into one of the stalls. Standing in front of the toilet, I propped one of my feet onto the rim of the toilet and the other on the floor. I lifted my dress up and tried to wipe up the mess with the paper towels. It felt as if I was wiping with sandpaper. I looked at the moist towels and strangely felt somewhat satisfied. I tossed them into the toilet, grabbed a handful of toilet paper and attempted to wipe up the remaining mess. The toilet paper broke into pieces and rolled into little wet balls on my thighs and ass. This. Was. Ridiculous. I grabbed another handful and dabbed against myself until it was dry. I opened the stall door and began to walk back outside, feeling both embarrassed and satisfied at the same time.

As I walked through the door, exiting the inner restaurant and entering the outside area, I started to walk past a table of guys my age. My nipples were still so hard that it almost hurt. My period was way too close. Hopefully Erik and I could have some crazy sex before it started. As I walked past, I heard one say, “Look at that bitch. I’d fuck the shit out of her. Sexy whore. Dude, look.” And I saw him nod his head my direction. I walked past, acting like I didn’t hear them. Just like being in a bar, people have no respect for women. Thinking it is one thing, but saying it, especially where someone can hear? That’s so far beyond inconsiderate. I stepped to the table and sat down. When I did, Erik looked a little uneasy.

“My turn now, will you excuse me for a moment? I must go to the restroom,” he asked.

“Sure.”

He stood, and walked toward the door. As he did, my eyes followed him. His walk, his stride, his gait or swagger; whatever people call it. It was such a turn-on just to see him walk. I got lost in just watching him walk away from the table. When he was almost to the door he stopped at the table of boys, leaned down, placed his hands on the table, and started whispering something. His whisper was harsh, but quiet, like he intended only for the boys to hear and no one else. I strained to hear what he was saying.

“Listen to me, you little fucks. I heard every word you said about her when she walked by. I am going to let you slide, one time, this one time. Maybe you didn’t realize she was with me…..”

The waiter appeared and Erik stopped speaking and smiled at the waiter. I acted like I wasn’t paying attention. As the waiter placed our food on the table, Erik was speaking again, but I couldn’t hear the conversation. When the waiter walked away, I turned my ear back to the table of boys, and caught the end of this whispered one-sided conversation.

“…and you’ll regret it for as long as you live. Do you understand me? I asked you both a god damned question, now fucking answer me…”

The boys both looked up at Erik, and nodded. At the same time that they nodded, I heard them say, “Yes.” Erik then extended his right hand to each of them, and with a puzzled look on their faces, they both shook his hand.  Erik lifted his other hand from the table, stood upright, and walked through the door into the building.

As he walked inside, I noticed my hand was covering my mouth the entire time he was talking to the rude boys. I moved it, and as I did, I could smell his cologne on my hand. I thought of what he said to those boys at the table that were talking about me, and it turned me on. I smelled my hand again. I felt the goose bumps rise in my arms.

And I began to drip.
