Chapter 8
The hot water hit me the moment I entered the spacious shower. Hadrian didn’t bother to rinse himself off first. That detachable showerhead was immediately directed at my thighs, and it wasn’t with the intent of bringing me pleasure.
In fact, me having another orgasm would’ve probably been a bad thing. Those contractions suck the swimmers up, you know!
Now, I kick myself. Of course the condom broke, you idiots! Since when are the one-size-fits-all (ha!) condoms left around love hotel rooms gonna be big enough for a guy? Condoms run small in Japan. Hadrian was such a fucking piston that it was only a matter of time before a condom broke!
God,whydidn’t we use the ones I bought? They were still in my bag! Wow, dumb!
Good job, girl.That’s what I thought as I sat on the edge of the bathtub and received the shower of my life. Hadrian wasn’t leaving anything up to chance. He looked to me for the briefest consent and plunged his fingers into me, making sure everything washed out.
Damnit, why did it have to feel good, too? Fuck my stupid body that was so hormonal I was probably going to get pregnant based on principle.
Fuuuuck.
Hadrian finally rinsed himself off after fingering me for protection’s sake. I occasionally accepted the showerhead into my hand and directed it at my thighs. Damnit, what was the point? Damage was done. But whatever gave him peace of mind, I guess.
“You okay?” he asked after handing me the showerhead a final time. “I finish.”
“Sure.” My mind was still reeling. The date. The sex. The stupid condom breaking and ruining everything. Bet my stupid neighbor didn’t have to deal with this shit. “Thanks.”
He wasn’t smiling when he grabbed a towel and left the shower. I remained there, sighing, wondering what my odds were that I was going to end up pregnant from this. I had been through such a dry spell with guys that I wasn’t on any kind of HBC and never got an IUD. The condom was the only thing standing between me and pregnancy. With a one-night stand? Really? I’d be far from the first woman, but whyme?
Might as well take a full shower while I was in there. The mood was officially over. I fully expected to walk out of there and find Hadrian dressed and ready to leave. The guy had accidentally came in me. That rooster was going to fly the coup before this hen could hatch an egg on the other side of the world.
Hadrian was not getting ready to leave by the time I left the shower, towel wrapped around me and attitude curiously calm. He was even still naked, lying in bed with the remote control in his hand.
Huh.
“Okay?” he asked me. That was certainly a concerned edge to his voice. Was he inquiring after my wellbeing? Or was he concerned that he was going to be a daddy like his brother was a daddy to… how many kids? Five? Six?
Hadrian may have almost been thirty and supposedly childless, but damnit, he wasn’t ready to catch up yet.
“Yes. Okay.” I climbed in next to him. “Don’t worry. No baby.” There would be no babies, damnit.
“You sure?”
“Yes. Don’t worry about it.” Hey, I decided not to worry about it. What was worrying going to do for me? I was still here tonight with a man I had a good time with. We had this room for the whole night. I didn’t want the mood ruined, but…
Apparently, what I said relaxed Hadrian enough to let him close his eyes. “Okay. No worries. I sleep.”
Typical man, ladies and gentlemen.
I may have been severely lacking sleep lately, but I was too wired on caffeine, sex, and a broken condom to join him in snoozeville. So I messaged my friend and told her what happened, all while flipping the TV channel to a hilariously dubbed episode ofCriminal Minds.
“What happened???”
“The condom broke.”
“Holy fuck, girl.”
“At least it was worth it?”
Hadrian snored.
I pulled the covers up around my chin. Maybe I should try to sleep. This was the first night I had in a long time where sleep was guaranteed. Not like Hadrian snoredthatloudly…
I must have slept a little bit, because when I rolled over, the channel had changed, and Hadrian was awake again.
