Fire and Ice
Compliments of yet another beautiful morning, the golden light gleaming in through the glass door stirred Mick from his sleep once again, and he did not need to look at his cell phone to know that he had been roused way to early. As Mick laid there hoping to fall back off to sleep, he could hear who he presumed to be Katrín's parents talking quietly upstairs. A few minutes later he heard the unmistakable rumble of a garage door going up and coming back down. Not long after that, a second garage door opened then closed.
Several more minutes passed and Mick continued to remain relatively conscious. Unable to ignore his bladder any longer he begrudgingly rose from the sofa and made the much-needed trip to the bathroom, only to return to the couch afterwards and realize that he was now very much awake. Knowing that laying back down was for the moment futile, Mick shuffled up the stairs making sure to be quiet as he went, and much to his delight discovered that in the kitchen there was still a half-pot of coffee keeping warm on the brewer. Mick found a mug and poured a cup of joe, then leaned back against the granite counter and closed his eyes, allowing himself to become slowly immersed in the pervading silence.
When he finally opened his eyes, Mick took a long, slow sip of his coffee before setting the mug down on the center island. He spotted a handwritten note laying upon the countertop which read:
Katrín,
Your father and I have gone into work and we will have dinner in the city tonight as we normally do on Friday. There are taco kits in the pantry and ground beef, cheese, lettuce, etc. in the refrigerator for you and your friends to make dinner with. We will see you later this evening.
Have a wonderful day.
Silja
It had not dawned on Mick when he heard the garage doors that her parents had left the house, and by the note it appeared they had done so for most of the remaining day. Mick picked up his mug and poured his coffee down the sink drain before giving the cup a quick rinse and setting it aside. He walked out of the kitchen and turned down the hallway towards the bedrooms and froze. "What if one of her parents comes back for some reason?" thought Mick, "Or someone else catches me?" Intrepidly he pressed down the short corridor without any notion whatsoever as to which closed door might lead him to Katrín.
Mick paused again and looked around, attempting to ascertain which was Kat's bedroom. All the closed doors appeared the same but by the way the hall bisected the interior of the house, it seemed the room to his right would be the largest and Mick figured that for the master bedroom. While continuing to stand there, he could barely perceive someone snoring from inside the room to his left. Mick listened intently at the door but it was impossible to tell if the culprit was male or female. Surmising that it was most likely Matt and not one of the girls, only one option then remained and it led him to the end of the hallway.
For a third time, Mick stood paralyzed due to indecision. "This is a bad idea," he told himself knowing that he was acting on a wild guess and, taking a huge chance. Mick figured if he opened the door and suddenly found himself confronted by Natalie or Matt, he would feign ignorance and claim he was looking for the bathroom. After quickly glancing over his shoulder to ensure that Liz or anyone else had not snuck up behind him undetected, Mick whispered to himself, "Let's see what's behind door number three."
It felt as if his pounding heart was going to leap from his chest as Mick brazenly twisted the entryway's knob and proceeded to open the door, going painstaking slow to prevent waking any of the bedroom's occupants, especially from a creaking hinge. Mick breathed easier when he spotted Katrín's bathrobe discarded on the floor as his view of the room's interior widened, and without any further reservation, he slipped nimbly into his friend's sleeping chamber and shut the door behind him with the same amount of care given to opening it.
Katrín was found lying in bed on her side facing away from Mick, and still very much asleep which pleased him. She was clad in some sort of black nightshirt, but Mick decided to forgo the decorum of their previous tryst and return the favor sans sleepwear. He shed his clothes then boldly slid into bed under the covers, nestling right up against Katrín and throwing his arm over her. Kat began to stir as she slowly came to, and she softly sighed right before saying, "This is a nice surprise." Katrín took hold of Mick's arm and pulled it tightly around herself then laid there for many minutes quite content before finally asking, "What time is it?"
"I'm honestly not sure," her unexpected guest admitted.
Katrín rolled over and smiled warmly at Mick. Conscious of not having brushed her teeth, she positioned her fingers over her mouth and whispered, "Good morning," before planting a light peck on his cheek. In a similar manner, Kat scooched up against her welcomed intruder and draped her arm around his waist. She could feel his soft, yet still ample penis pressing against her stomach and Katrín ran her palm down Mick's back and over his buttocks confirming that he was completely naked.
