"I was just going to see how you were feeling." Alex said, amusement in his voice.
"I've got a bit of a headache but I'm okay. How are you? How's your mom, what happened?"
"I'm okay. My mom was in a car accident late last night and she had an internal injury that required surgery. She just got out of surgery and the doctors tell me it went well, so I was going to try and catch some sleep before she wakes up."
Dani couldn't ignore how exhausted he sounded.
"That's awful, but I'm glad to hear the surgery went well. I'll let you get some sleep."
"Can I ask for one more favor first?" He asked quickly.
"Of course, Alex. Whatever you need."
"Do you mind sleeping at my place until I get back? I know that's a strange request but I will probably stay for a few days and I don't like leaving Leela alone for that long. You can bring Darcy of course. I'm sure Leela will love that."
Sleep at his place?
"Uhh, I mean I could probably bring Leela over to my place. I don't want to intrude."
"Please Dani? Leela will be more comfortable at home and I don't want to be up worrying about her. I know it's a lot to ask." The tired plea was too much for Dani to deny.
"Okay, I'll stay until you get back."
"Thank you Dani. Make yourself at home, there's food in the pantry and fridge that you are welcome to eat. Oh, and don't sleep on that old couch, Leela has claimed it for herself and my bed is much comfier."
Nervous butterflies sprung up in Dani's uneasy stomach.
"If you insist." Dani agreed.
"Alright, I will talk to you later. Bye, Dani."
She hung up the phone and looked around the apartment. She couldn't stop herself from imagining Alex casually going about his day, making meals and playing with Leela.
During the phone call Leela had wandered over and climbed onto the couch.
Claimed space, indeed.
As Dani let Darcy out of the bathroom, an open door at the end of the hallway caught her eye. She walked over and opened the door, revealing Alex's bedroom.
It was pretty clean for a 25-year-old guy, only a few discarded pieces of clothing lying around his unmade bed. Morning light was pouring in from the window by his dresser. Despite the fact that Alex had told her to sleep in his room, Dani felt like she was intruding. But she couldn't stop herself from closing the door behind her and looking around.
Again, images of Alex casually living his life flashed in her mind. Soon her imagination turned sexual, visualizing him undressing his toned body and climbing into bed. She noticed his laptop on his bedside table and tissues in the open drawer. She blushed, picturing him watching porn and stroking himself. She remembered just how long he felt through his jeans and her clit throbbed.
It was wrong, she knew it, but she sat on his bed right where she'd imagined him. The smell of him was all over the room and it overwhelmed her when she sat. Her mind filled with all of the feelings from the night before. His hands and mouth roaming all over her body.
Dani closed her eyes and followed the path his hands had taken, making small circles on her thighs. Her fingers slid under the edge of her pajama pants and found her underwear soaking wet. She quickly removed her pants and threw them to the floor. She tried not to think about how weird she was for being so turned on just from lying in his bed.
Her fingers found her clit and started circling it. Her mind was consumed with Alex's mouth on her, making her moan. With her other hand she pulled up her shirt and traced her nipple.
Dani pictured Alex walking in, surprised to find her in his bed touching herself. She wouldn't stop if he did, she would keep going because, God, it felt good. She would watch his dick harden as he watched her. And as he stood deciding what to do, she would beg him to fuck her hard with that long cock.
The thought of him crawling on top of her and replacing her hands with his, sent her over the edge. She climaxed and loudly moaned his name as her back arched.
***
Alex had arrived at the hospital around 5 a.m. His sister, Jenna, greeted him with red rimmed eyes.
Jenna told him about his mother's accident, and that she was now in emergency surgery to remove a shard of glass that had punctured her left lung.
They waited for hours, barely talking and drinking coffee. Neither acknowledged the sinking feeling this hospital gave them, because they had both been there for their father's death.
When they'd finally gotten word that the surgery went well, Alex convinced Jenna to go home and get some sleep. During the silent hours he kept his mind busy with thoughts about Dani, and whether or not to pursue her.
Once he knew his mother would make it, he wondered what she would think if she met Dani. And that thought scared him. He'd never brought anyone home to meet his mother. He'd always kept his family as a very private part of himself, not wanting to expose the pain they'd gone through. Why would he consider it for a girl he barely knew?
When Dani called, he decided spur of the moment to ask her to sleep there. The thought of her in his bed was too tantalizing not to request.
After ensuring with a nurse that his mother would be out for a while, he curled up in a chair and fell asleep.
