Just another Night to Kill

We both know that there's no strings attached with this. I don't expect anything from her. She can pretend it never happened or take it as a friends with benefits step. Either way, I just hope this doesn't change how fun she is to be around. She's easy to talk to, even more easy to banter with and I enjoy myself. I've had friends with benefits relationships before. Some work out and some don't. I'll admit, I'll be upset if this doesn't work out and it somehow messes up the friendship that we have. Amelia is really one in a million but I'm not looking for a serious relationship right now. Not while Sam's stil on my mind.

I never think about how a woman will feel about the expertise of her partner when it comes to spontaneous flings like this. I guess some women could be insulted that I've touched so many women before while others might be thankful that I know what I'm doing. Of course I know that every woman is different and not everyone can be satisfied in the same ways by doing the same things. That's why I've become so observant in my many centuries, taking in all the groans and moans and all the squirming and gasping. I take in all the motions of her body every time I touch her and I feel her skin twitch with pleasure when I do certain things or move my fingers in certain ways.

I wouldn't say I'm the perfect sex partner, but I'm damn near close.

I don't mind if she wants to let herself go over that edge early because we both know we're nowhere near done with this night. I plan on pleasing her in all sorts of ways just as I can feel her hungry fingers aching to please me as well. Maybe a vampire's stamina will be like what Dorian was talking about. Maybe it'll be a new challenge for me to try out, someone who can handle my endurance. I never would have thought I'd look at a vampire as a sex partner but here I am.

I'm all too eager to press her further as she clamps down on the headboard. I love hearing her moan. It's such a pleasant sound. But my attention is grabbed by the firelight touching on the flesh of her arm and something on it entices me. A tattoo, a strange one. Something tells me I've seen one like it before and the memory is like a thought on the tip of my tongue, too out of reach to grab it but too enticing to pass up.

I feel her movement beneath me and I know she's caught on that I'm distracted. Damn, caught red handed. I'm ready to give her one of those charming sheepish smirks so we can go back to what we were doing but she follows my gaze to her arm and suddenly pulls her arms to her chest. I don't know whether she's hiding the tattoo or suddenly self conscious about her body or both but it's enough to make me scowl softly, brows furrowing in concern. She tells me I'm not supposed to see that and I tilt my head. "A tattoo that you're no one's supposed to see? I would think there are better places than your arm." I'm trying to make jokes, I know. Probably a jerk move but I'm trying to lighten the mood.

She moves to the edge of the bed and I backtrack, reaching out for her leg or arm, anything to make her hesitate. "Hey...it's okay. Whatever it means, we don't have to talk about it." But she withdraws, going to the bathroom and I sigh, running both hands through my hair before I stand and slowly walk toward the bathroom. "Amelia..." I don't even know what to say at this point but I hate leaving it like this. Besides the fact that I'm going to have major blue balls after this, I just don't like her being upset and I want to know why this tattoo and someone seeing it makes her that upset.

I see her pull out the coverup makeup, leaning against the end of the bed. I'm not even sure what I should be doing with myself at this point. Do I pick up my clothes and start saying my good byes or is there still a chance to save this? Or at least talk? I just don't want to leave with her like this. I glance down at my half down pants, sighing as I pull them back up and re-button them. Now where's my shirt? I start looking for it but thats when I hear movement from the bathroom. I glance up, running another hand through my hair as she comes out in a bathrobe, of course covering both arms now.

She's not even looking at me and I hate that. I move toward her, reaching out to cup her chin and lift her gaze to mine. "Amelia, I don't know what any of it means or why it upsets you so much but we don't have to talk about it. We don't have to do anything you don't want to."
