"Did you like it?" She asked him, when they finished eating, hours later. He had eaten two generous plates of gnocchi with funghi sauce, after all. He had praised everything, especially her appearance, but eating it all and asking for seconds was an even greater compliment. Too bad it wasn't her cooking!
"I loved it! It was delicious."
"Harry?" She got his attention as he wiped his lips with a napkin.
"Hmm?"
"I lied to you. I didn't make this." She confessed, embarrassed. "I tried, but nothing turned out right! So, I ended up calling a restaurant." She added, frustrated.
"I figured, Kath." He chuckled at her. "Almost no one gets that sauce right on the first try... or the texture of gnocchi. And you're not used to cooking."
"Yeah," she agreed, still wrinkling her nose. "But you cook so well, and I really wanted to do this for you. It's the first time I've tried to do something for someone, and... do I only know how to do things for myself?"<
On that Saturday, they made love in the main room, in the TV room, and in the kitchen. Afterward, they watched the sunrise while sitting on the edge of the pool, with their legs partially immersed in the water, before Harry returned to his own apartment. On Sunday, she suggested that they leave the house and go watch a movie at the cinema, followed by a snack at a café nearby.The following weekend, at his suggestion, they visited a skating rink and, at her suggestion, they went to a place called the Helium Comedy Club to see stand-up comedians perform. She had already noticed how much he loved comedies and easily laughed at them. It was hard to believe that she had once thought he was overly serious. Appearances can really deceive us, and we should be careful with them!They settled into a normal couple routine, and soon, it was time to celebrate one month of official dating. Harry prepared a new surprise for the girl and took her to the Sugarhouse Casino, where they had a fun night,
Harry placed Kath on the bed, grateful for the accessible bedside lamp in the room, making life easier for someone who didn't know where things were in the room. He quickly removed his boxer shorts and lay down beside her, kissing her and squeezing one of her breasts as she scratched his back. He stopped kissing her only to gaze into her eyes, which were filled with desire, while making her nipple harden under his touch. She moaned, gasped, and rubbed herself against his leg, closing her eyes and digging her nails into him."Look at me, baby," he requested. "Keep looking at me... in my eyes! Delicious!" He said, grabbing her breast again and rubbing the nipple in the palm of his hand before sliding it down her abdomen to her intimacy, touching her while never taking his eyes off her. "I love teasing you, you know? Feeling you like this in my hand." He affirmed, aware of the double meaning of his words, after a while. "But not now, because right now I have no desire to wait to have you
The bathtub was indeed large, and they spent a good amount of time engaging in adult play inside it, as well as having a lengthy conversation and exchanging affectionate gestures. When they got out, and Harry wrapped himself in a towel while watching Kath put on a hot pink robe, it was already quite late, and both of them were yawning. She put on clean underwear and a nightgown taken from a large dresser, and he put back on the underwear he had thrown on the bedroom floor, saying he was going to the game room where the rest of their clothes were kept."Do you think I run the risk of running into the staff at this hour?" he asked while drying his hair."No, even if Cora is awake, she would only come to this part of the apartment if we called her.""Okay." He quickly went into the bathroom, returning without the towel. "You should come with me to get your clothes too, so I can get dressed there and head out.""Harry," she said, touching his arm. "I wish I could tell you to stay and slee
"But I thought that...""I didn't want to go there anymore?" She confirmed. "No, my love. As I told you, I never minded what we did behind closed doors. What bothered me was not having a real relationship. It was not being able to love you, to show you affection. I enjoyed the games, the tension. I miss it, and I know you do too. Don't you?" She asked, looking into her eyes."I do," she said, her breath quickening with anticipation."Would you have chosen to go there yesterday if you had won me over?""No... because I REALLY thought you didn't want to anymore. It's been so long.""I didn't say anything before because I thought it was better to be radical in the beginning, so you would step out of the dominatrix role. Now, I think you can take on that role and then leave the character behind when we lock the door again. Do you want to try?" She smiled broadly, and that was more than enough of an answer. So, they both put on their underwear and headed
Surprisingly, Harry's words proved to be correct, and Kath finally realized that she could show all her colors and tones without losing authority. After nearly a week of hesitating, she seized the opportunity on a Friday, a day when people dressed more casually at the company, and she didn't typically have any important meetings, to wear the shirt that Harry had given her, just so he could see that she had been experimenting. However, she ended up having to attend a highly important meeting with the company's shareholders and two more with distributors. She mentally cursed her desire to please Harry as she headed to the first one dressed in shocking pink and gray.In the first meeting, she noticed some surprised looks as she shook hands with her fellow board members, but she tried to act normally, and everything went incredibly well. She was listened to with the same respect as always, and all her opinions were taken into consideration in the decisions made that morning. She was amaze
"You guys are crazy!" Kath whispered to her friends, and the three of them laughed."Can I start by offering you some Veuve Clicquot?" the pale, skinny, red-haired saleswoman struggled to say while Sebastian was instructing other girls."What's your name again?" Harmony asked."Mary Kelly," she repeated the information she had already provided when the customers entered the store, following instructions."Very well, Mary, dear. I can see that you're doing your best!" Kath's friend forced a yellow smile. "But don't offer us Veuve Clicquot if we can only have a little," she criticized."Oh, of course," Mary said, awkwardly, leaving. "I'll make sure there's no shortage of champagne.""My name is Ann, and I'm here to assist you. What would you like to see first?" asked another saleswoman."Mine is Dora, and I think I already have the perfect model in mind for each of you. I'll bring them in a moment!" affirmed a third, clearly competing f
"It must be because your credit is tied up with the installment payments for the plane ticket. Here you go!" Kath saved her friend's face by giving her the twenty reais, trying to minimize the embarrassment she was feeling in front of the store clerk. However, when they were out of the store, she questioned the blonde's behavior, who had good credit limits on her cards but didn't have any credit at the moment or money in her pocket."That's not true! She doesn't use half of what she buys, Kath! I went to her house to borrow a dress because a last-minute formal party came up, and I didn't have time to buy anything... I couldn't go dressed like a pin-up... and there were several bags full of brand new clothes scattered around her living room!" Harmony intervened."It's like the mannequins call me... point things out to me and beg me to buy! I can't control myself!""I can't break your credit cards, friend, but I think we should come up with a strategy!" Kath sugge
Harry was awakened when a cold breeze suddenly touched the part of his body that wasn't covered by the two thick blankets he had taken from the living room sofas and used to cover himself and Kath after she had fallen asleep on the carpet. He thought about simply pulling the covers and going back to sleep, but even with his eyes closed, he noticed the brightness that signaled it was already daytime, so he decided to open his eyes and find out how far into Sunday it already was. His clock showed quarter to eleven, so it wasn't exactly a surprise that Kath was no longer beside him. However, he couldn't help but wonder if she had slept there or had fled to the bedroom, startled upon realizing she had fallen asleep next to her boyfriend. He didn't think it was safe to assume that she was ready to sleep with him just because of one night when she had fallen asleep in his company. Soon he understood the reason for the cold breeze inside the apartment when he saw the brunet
