Kapitel 42: I can't sleep
That evening, Aiden was in the bed. In the guest room of Hill family villa, four doors away from Sarah.
He was not able to sleep. He looked at the time, and it was few minutes after midnight.
Aiden was thinking about the day that just ended. 'A lot of things happened. My relationship with Sarah reached next level.' He smiled while thinking of events from hotel room in Royal Suites, their interaction in the mall, and the evening in her home. His thoughts started moving towards vivid memories of her body shape, softness of her skin, her eyes that seem to look inside his soul... his body reacted. He just helplessly smiled at himself.
Aiden recollected her boldness when she tied him up and took the initiative to come on to him. That was beyond his wildest expectations. Those few hours, that morning in the hotel, were a huge rollercoaster of emotions. It was difficult not to fall apart. But it all ended well. 'It ended very well…' He smiled again. The pressure in his lower abdomen increased when picture of Sarah losing herself in passion flashed in his mind. 'I need to think about something else!'
He forced himself to find something else to think about.
Aiden thought of her smile while they were in the mall... When Sarah smiled at him, he felt like the bright sun is breaching through cloudy skies after the rain. She had such a power: no matter how gloomy he was, when she appeared, sunshine was forced into his life.
Aiden saw Sarah as a pure and innocent angel that came into his life. He had a strong internal battle between urge to protect that innocence, and hunger that can be satisfied only by devouring her. He was pretty good in controlling his hunger. But when he saw that she is responding to him, and asking to be close to him, all control is rendered useless.
His heart was moved when he thought how she treats him with sincerity. There is no drama, no schemes. She does not talk much, but if he asks her a question, she gives him a straight answer without playing games. Her open display of trust was something he didn't experience before. 'I need to show her that I'm serious about her, and that I'm not playing around.'
He remembered seeing her in the bathroom when he showered that afternoon. 'Oh, no... did I really sing and dance in the shower and she saw me? That is truly embarrassing. A man should not do such things!' He reminded himself to be more aware. Aiden recollected how much effort he put in not to touch her, after he came out of the shower. He used every ounce of his willpower to keep his hands on her back and not to do any other moves. He was in her house, for the first time. Her family was in the same building. He wanted to show restraint and respect. But when he heard her say "I want you", every bit of resolve he had vanished, and his mind went blank. He could only think about her inviting warmth, and how he needs to get a taste of her. 'Her full breasts are so firm and soft...' The pressure in his lower abdomen increased again.
Aiden took a minute to recite Pi numbers in order to calm down his mind and to move his thoughts in a different direction.
He thought about Eve and the virtual room she created. He knew that she is a prodigy, but what he saw amazed him. He never saw anything so advanced. 'I need to make my moves carefully. I want her to join, but I don't want her to think that I'm taking advantage of her because I want to recruit her.' This was something he didn't expect.
That summer, Aiden decided to focus on his work and to stop attending Tesla University. He didn't find the courses challenging, since he already knew everything covered with lessons, and he does not need that degree. He has a job in their family company where his brother is a CEO. He even faked an injury in order to provide a cover up, so that people don't snoop around when news that he left University spreads out.
His brother told him that they need to hire more people, and that a rare prodigy joined Tesla University. Against Aiden's will, his brother sent him back to school in order to evaluate skills of that prodigy with a goal to recruit her if she is good enough.
Aiden was intrigued when he heard that the prodigy is a 19 year old girl who started from 3rd year courses, and climbed to the rank of a top student at University after only one semester. But if her strengths are only in academics, it will be useless for the type of work they are doing. He got to see her working, and he was impressed.
While getting closer to her, to find out about her skills, he felt the increasing need to be with her, to feel her close to him, to protect her… he fell in love. 'What if she declines to join? How will that impact our relationship? What if she accepts? What if she thinks that my feelings are not sincere?'
How Aiden sees Sarah, she is someone who divides world into good and bad with a clear line between the two. From his earliest memories, he was never like that. He was always treading in the gray area, and his work always bordered line of legal activities, on few occasions clearly going over the line. What if she finds that as non-acceptable? What if she finds him despicable? What if she does not want to be with him anymore? He frowned thinking about that. He didn't want to think about that.
His mind drifted to the girl four doors down the hall again.
Aiden thought how even though she didn't say that she loves him, he can tell that she does. She does not need to say anything, he can tell what her feelings are, like there is some invisible connection between two of them. Since they met, he always felt at ease talking with her. Getting closer to her felt effortless, it was the right thing to do. When they are together, everything feels right. Aiden wished that they are never apart; that he can always be by her side and hold her in his embrace every night. When she is not close to him, he can feel her absence like an important piece is missing. And now he is missing her. 'Four doors down the hallway. Is she thinking about me? Or did she sleep off? Is she dreaming about me?'
His thoughts got interrupted when he saw a shadow sneaking into his room. Dim moonlight is creeping in through the windows, and that light is enough for him to observe Sarah walking towards him.
Aiden held his breath and felt a relief wash over him, 'She is here.'
Her light footsteps are not making any sound. Aiden can't help but smile. Sarah is like an ethereal existence, and with each step that brings them closer, her spell on him is getting stronger, and he can't look away.
She is wearing a light blue two-piece pajama. She is close enough that Aiden can see her neck and a hint of cleavage exposed. Her skin is shining under the moonlight like it's made from porcelain.
"I almost gave up hope that you will come", his deep voice filled the room. He didn't want to say that he missed her like crazy, but he hoped that she will understand.
Sarah stopped her footsteps, and said in a quiet voice, "I can't sleep."
He moved the blanked and patted the space next to him.
Sarah nimbly jumped inside the blanket and snuggled next to him.
He was surprised with her swift and effortless move for a moment, but her scent enveloped him, and he forgot what he wanted to ask.
He embraced her and took a deep breath to inhale her scent, fragrance of her hair. He could not tell what type of fragrance that is, but he knows that is the scent that relaxes and excites him at the same time.
Having this girl in his arms makes him feel that nothing is impossible, this is the way it should be. Sarah is the essential piece of him, and before he met her, he was not aware that it was missing.
As if some mystical cosmic force has imparted him with knowledge, he is confident that if they are together, they can conquer any obstacle. Together they are invincible. As long as they are together, everything will be just right.
He remembered how nimbly she got into the bed and concluded that she has martial arts training. 'This beautiful lady in my arms is surprising me with her every move.' Aiden looks forward to tomorrow, eagerly expecting to see what Sarah will decide to show him next.
After few minutes in silence, Sarah yawned. Aiden kissed top of her head and his hug tightened. "Sweet dreams", he whispered.
She obediently nodded and drifted off to sleep.
