"So, you'll stay with Chance this weekend?" asked Lily.
"Yeah, I'll stay with him. He always throws up on my rugs when he tries to stay with me. Seriously, your dog hates my apartment," said Anna.
"Cool! My cousin Ben might crash on the couch on Friday night, after he's done with his Halloween bar hopping. So, if you hear someone stumbling in after last call, it's him. Ben has a key to my building and to my apartment so, he won't bother you. Actually, he'll probably be gone before you even wake up. That's what he usually does, anyway," said Lily.
"Ok. Chance and I will be fine. He's always a good boy when he manages to keep his food down," said Anna.
On Friday, Halloween, Anna went over to Lily's apartment as promised. Anna would be dog sitting while Lily's boyfriend whisked her away for a romantic fall trip to Vermont. It always seemed to work out like that. Lily's Halloween would consist of a glamorous masquerade ball at the resort with Mike, her stockbroker boyfriend. Anna, on the other hand, would spend the evening watching Netflix with Chance the Golden Retriever.
That night, Anna ordered a pizza and watched Mean Girls, Legally Blonde, and Clueless. Every once in a while, a kid from the building knocked on the apartment door and shouted "Trick or Treat!" When that happened, Anna, wearing cat ears in her long wavy hair, answered the door and gave the kid a snack sized chocolate bar. The trick or treaters stopped around 8:00. At 9:00, Anna and Chance went on his final walk of the evening. Later, around 10:30, Anna shut down her computer. After that, she took a leisurely bubble bath while Chance laid on the bathmat and watched. They both went to sleep after that.
Around 3:00 in the morning, Chance started to whimper. Anna roused slightly. She was about to go and see what was wrong when she heard someone speak to Chance. He immediately quieted down. Ben must be there. Well, he'd be fine. Anna had made up the couch with a pillow, a blanket, and some sheets before she went to sleep. So, no matter how drunk Ben was, he'd be able to sleep comfortably.
Anna slowly drifted back to sleep. When she was almost asleep, she saw him. Ben entered the bedroom, wearing his Halloween costume, and turned on a desk lamp. He was dressed as an old fighter pilot. If Anna had to guess, she would say World War II. The costume looked good on him. Actually, Ben could make anything look good. He looked like a model -- tall and muscular with broad shoulders, chiseled cheekbones, and a square jawline. To top it off, he even had dimples.
"It's you," he said. "I've waited so long to see you."
"Me?" Anna asked.
"Yes, you, my darling," he replied. Ben turned the lamp off and walked over to the bed.
Anna decided that he must be very drunk. But, he seemed sober. No slurring or stumbling. Maybe it was all just a joke.
Ben sat down on the bed and removed his leather boots. They looked authentic. He must have spent a fortune on his costume.
He then took off his leather jacket and put it on the nightstand. After that, he got into bed with Anna.
"Ummm...what are you doing?" Anna asked.
"It's been so long. I need to hold you," Ben said.
Anna decided to just go with things. She was barely awake and not in a mood to deal with Lily's cousin's long, drawn out joke. Plus, he was super hot. If Ben wanted to cuddle to keep the joke going, Anna wasn't going to stop him.
Ben slid under the blanket with Anna. Anna turned onto her side and closed her eyes to go back to sleep.
Next, Ben moved to the center of the bed. He pulled Anna against his chest and put his arms around her. It had been a long time since Anna had been with anyone. Back in March, she'd caught her fiancΓ© in bed with another woman and she hadn't been with anyone since their breakup. So, feeling Ben's muscular chest pressed against her back was most welcomed. Inwardly, Anna congratulated herself on wearing a pretty, satin nightgown instead of her usual oversized t-shirt and shorts. She hadn't anticipated anyone seeing it but, it turned out to be a good choice.
As Anna relaxed into Ben's embrace, she felt his lips on her neck. He tenderly kissed the back of her neck and where her nightgown's straps exposed her shoulders. Ben's kisses were soft but urgent. Anna even felt his tongue a few times. He was definitely into her.
As Anna pushed herself closer to Ben, she felt it. His dick was hard and ready to take things to the next level. Well, so was she.
Anna turned onto her other side so that she was facing Ben. She put her hands on his face and kissed him deeply. Their tongues slid against each other as they both tasted the other. Finally, Anna pulled back a little to catch her breath. When Ben made a disappointed sound, she leaned back to nibble his full lower lip.
As they continued to kiss, their hands started to explore. Anna put her hands on Ben's chest. He still wore his aviator's scarf. The silk felt smooth as she unwound the scarf from his neck. Anna dropped the scarf on the floor and then started to unbutton Ben's shirt. As she did this, his hands were up her nightgown, roaming over her ass and back. After the buttons were opened, Anna pushed the shirt off of Ben's broad shoulders.
