THEME: New Feelings

CONNECTICUT, UNITED STATE OF AMERICA

CHRISTOPHER CRAWFORD APARTMENT

Raven stirred lightly as she placed her arm in front of her face to block the rays of the sun. She tried to moved but was held back by a strong arm and the memories of the previous night danced around her brain and she couldn’t help the blush that accompanied it.

Then she jerked up in a hurry when she remembered that she had to be at work. “Oh my goodness! What time is it?” She questioned, making an attempt to jump out the bed but he pulled her back in.

“Where are you running off to?” Christopher asked her in a sleepy voice. “It’s past seven if you must know.”

Raven gasped trying to ignore how sexy his voice sounded. “I am super late for work!” She made an attempt to move again.

“Easy Raven!” He said holding her back. “I already placed a call to Tiana and told her you would be running late!”

“You told who?” She queried in horror.

Raven had wanted to be the one to tell her what had gone down, but having Christopher make a call to her friend on her behalf only means that Tiana was sure to make it the main topic of the day.

His eyes stared wide awake. “Why shouldn’t I have told her?”

Raven groaned and facepalmed herself. “She is so going to rub this in my face.”

Getting a hang of what she meant, he laughed lightly. “Go shower and get ready. I will be downstairs so you can come have breakfast when you are done.”

“Aren’t you going to be late for work?” Raven asked, jumping around to wear her littered lingerie.

Christopher groaned as he watched her near nakedness. He tossed his big top at her. He chuckled. “I own the company Raven. I can be there whenever I want.”Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Raven let out a brief laugh. “Well I don’t own the one I work at so I had better hurry before I get fired.” She muttered and rushed out the door.

He had wanted to call her back and tell her she was married to him and didn’t need to worry about a day job but then he reminded himself what their relationship was based on. A contract. Scratching his hair, he headed to the bathroom to get dressed for the day.

A thought played in his head as he brushed his teeth. He should have lured her in with him to get freaky in the bathroom but then she had to run off to the one in her room.

The mere thought of her had his dick hardened and he chuckled at it. He had to turn on the cold shower to calm his nerves.

“Judging by the rate at which you both are going at it. I have a feeling I might be getting a nephew or niece soon, but I would prefer a niece. I and Eisner need a third person. Just like Liam has got Adam and Rowan.” Ava teased continuously as she munched on her syrup filled pancakes.

Raven blushed hard like a fully ripe tomato, her neck was so hot against the collar of her shirt. She had rushed out to her room to get dressed completely forgetting that Ava had occupied the room. Her breath was brought to a halt when she saw Ava staring dead-face at her with her phone in hand and grinning from ear to ear. She recalled that it must have been the reason why Christopher had tossed his top at her.

“It’s not what you think!” She had blurted out unconsciously. Her words only made Ava giggle loudly.

And running to the bathroom was her only safe haven option. Raven didn’t step out of the bathroom until she was sure Ava had left for breakfast. She persistently stared at herself in admiration, feeling extremely light. What she had done the night before had been her taking a huge risk with her dignity. Her soul gladdened when Christopher had responded with the same energy. It made her jump freely like an excited kid.

Since she was going to be late for the day, she decided to take her time to have breakfast with Ava and Christopher. Most importantly, she wanted to be sure they were on good terms and she didn’t just imagine all that happened in her crazy mind. Her heart kept beating beyond it’s usual rhythm when he didn’t show up for breakfast on time. With Ava’s constant tease it only made her more anxious.

Ava nudged her on the side, making Raven jump. “So, tell me Raven, what’s you both favorite position?” She taunted wiggling her brows.

Raven was just about to cower with extreme embarrassment when Christopher came to her rescue.

“Whatever I and my wife do in the other room shouldn’t be any of your business Ava!” Christopher spoke from the staircase as he fixed his cufflinks.

Ava let out a snort as she turned to face her brother. “You always walk in at the wrongest of times. This is ladies talk.”

Christopher kissed his sister on her forehead before moving to place a light kiss on Raven’s lips and he took a seat next to her.

“I don’t think Raven was any comfortable with it.” He motioned towards Matilda who was busy cleaning up the kitchen. “Matilda, please can I get some too?”

“Right up sir.” Matilda responded.

Raven felt her cheeks lighten up at the way he called her name. The way he pronounced it made it sound so musical to her ears. With the way she was blushing consistently, Raven hoped she wouldn’t get a dent in her cheek.

Finishing up with her food, Raven cleared her plate, put it in the sink to wash it while ignoring Matilda’s insistence to let her do the dishes.

“What do you have planned out for today?” Ava asked Raven.

Looking at her, Raven replied. “Do you mean after work?”

Ava nodded in response. She used her fork to lift another piece of pancake.

“She would be busy!” Christopher chipped in again.

Ava slapped the table in frustration and glared at him. “Can you stay out of this please? Raven say something!” She whined.

Raven chuckled lightly. “Please Chris we can always have our time alone later.”

Christopher felt like he was floating in the air at the pronunciation of his name. He had thought it was sexy when she called his name during their make out session but hearing it from her now sounded even more sexier. He felt the urge to beat his chest in excitement.

Remembering he was suppose to say something he just smiled. “Fine! But just today.” He pointed out.

“Yes sir!” Raven nodded with a slight bow.

Ava stood up in excitement, rounded the kitchen island to hug Raven tightly. “You are a darling Raven. I just want us to have the girls time out.”

“And we would.” Raven tried to match her excitement. “I will be heading out now.”

Christopher stood abruptly although he wasn’t done with his food. “Let me drop you off, Ava can pick you after work.”

Raven smiled. She wasn’t planning to refuse the offer because she been secretly hoping he would ask. Grabbing her bag, she hugged Ava by the side. “Let’s go then, see you later Ava. Bye Matilda!”

Just as Christopher turned heading towards the door. Ava whistled calling out to him. “You can have your way in the car it’s tinted after all.” She whispered.

Letting out a shy grin, he mouthed to his younger sister as he backed the door. “Mind your damn business!” He smirked before stepping out of the house in glee.
