“That’s beautiful. What does it mean?”
“It means love.”
“I think I can handle that, Meydad.” My voice sounded all husky and breathy, causing his pupils to dilate. They were dark brown, almost black, but the glimmer in them told me he was aroused.
“Say it again. Just like that.”
I smiled and took a deep breath. His eyes shot to my cleavage, and he groaned as he watched my breast lift and then lower back into place as the exhale of air deflated my lungs. I licked my lips just to get his attention back on my mouth. He was salivating when I finally whispered his name like a siren’s call.
“Meydad...” I let the sound linger on my tongue, but before I could tease him anymore his mouth claimed mine in a hot sexy kiss that curled my toes. One thing for sure, and two I know, Meydad on my lips was an aphrodisiac to Matrix.
The sharp sound of the man at the next table clearing his throat pulled us apart but did very little to douse the fire in Matrix’s eyes. His stare was intense. The lecherous smile that played on his lips told me I was in for a fun night. Check Please!
Despite my eagerness to get out of there and climb on his lap, Matrix, I mean Meydad, picked up his menu and ordered dinner for us. Normally, I would have an issue with a man ordering for me, but the way he did it with such care told me he wasn’t trying to control me, he was just aware of what I liked.
“You look beautiful tonight, Sharon. Thank you for finally agreeing to come out with me. What made you change your mind because I have been asking for months?”
“I guess you finally wore me down. That, and the fact that Baby and you were about to come to blows over the situation.”
“Yea, well he can be a bit competitive. If he sees there is something or someone I want, Baby is usually trying to challenge me for it. It’s just how we get along as brothers. But I don’t want to talk about him tonight. Tonight, is just for us.”
“Us? Be careful with those words. I may think you are trying to get serious.”
“Well, maybe I wouldn’t mind getting serious with you, Sharon. In fact, I’d like to try.”
He looked at me expectantly, and I froze. I had just been talking shit. There was no way I thought for one second that Matrix, the self-proclaimed ladies’ man, would be serious about me. I figured we would have some fun, lots of hot sex and move on with several memories to masturbate to when needed. I stared at him like a deer in headlights. I guess he sensed my hesitation because he continued talking.
“I know it may feel rushed or seem like a game, but I am very sincere. I’ve been trying to get at you for quite some time, but you kept shooting me down.”
“Aww, Matrix...”
“Meydad!”
“Right, sorry. Meydad. You are always joking around, so I thought you were playing. I didn’t want to say yes only to have egg on my face when it was revealed that you were just fucking around.”
“I can see how you might take it that way. Hell, I joke around to entertain myself. It’s just something to do, but I want you to know I have a serious side too. Look at me, Sharon.”
I stopped fidgeting with the linen napkin and met his eyes. The intensity was more than I could handle. I wasn’t used to a man looking at me with such desire. It made me nervous, and I didn’t know how to express that energy. Lucky for me, Meydad did. He took my hand in his and began talking again.
“I know I have a reputation as the class clown and a rogue. It’s true. I fuck around a lot, but that’s only because I have a huge sexual appetite. If I had someone special in my life that could handle my prowess, I would gladly be a faithful man.”
My mouth went dry, and my palms started sweating. I wanted to remove my hand from his, but it felt too good. Besides, his grip tightened as if he knew what I was thinking. My body was on fire, and I was desperate to feel his mouth on me again. Just as the thought popped in my head, the waiter arrived with our food.
“This looks delicious. What did you order again?”
“It’s called Paella and it is divine. This restaurant makes the best I have had since my grandmother passed away. Here, try it, and tell me what you think.”
He held a fork full of the delectable dish out to me, and I parted my lips to take the bite from his fork. The intimate move caused dampness in my panties. Well, it would have if I was wearing any. The flavorful dish had me moaning in pleasure. It was heaven in my mouth. The mixture of onion, garlic and rice, joined by the shrimp and mussels made my eyes roll in the back of my head. I immediately wanted to abandon the Chicken Alfredo I was about to devour.
“Mmm, this is so good. Wanna trade?” I gave him my best puppy dog eyes, as he chuckled.
“I’ll tell you what, I am willing to share my meal with you, but only if you let me feed you.”
What? He wanted to feed me? That was a first. Whatever turned him on.
“As long as I get to eat more of that, what did you say, Paella? Yea, as long as I get to eat more Paella, you can hand feed me all you want.”
“Slide closer to me, so I don’t make a mess.” He helped me scoot my chair closer to his as he took his first bite of his food. “Yes, this is what I have been missing! Here, sweetheart, have some more.”
