Instant Attraction

Sunday, 3 November 2013

I know you've all heard of love at first sight, but have you ever heard of lust at first sight? Because if I were to describe the feeling I had for Serena the first time I met her, it was exactly like that; it was lust at first sight. An instant attraction. Maybe because she's the ultimate fantasy of any teenage boy. Or maybe because the minute I opened my eyes, I saw two beautiful and plump breasts in front of me.

I knew I was lucky to be in the library where no else was supposed to be. It was destiny. Because why would she be in the same place as me? I woke up to a beautiful stranger who had nothing but utter concern for me when it was our first time to see each other. That was something.

Everyone was home, waiting for the flood to subside. There was no school, and all businesses were temporarily close. The only reason I was there in the library was because of…I looked down at my hands and was relieved to see my Inferno book. That was the only reason I was there, but what was her reason?

"Okay, young man, you seem okay, but I want to know why you're here. Are you allowed to be in here? The library is close."

"Uhm…" What do I say to her? I've never talked to a stranger, much less a woman stranger. A beautiful woman stranger with big… I averted my eyes and realized that as long as I'm sitting on the floor, I'll get distracted at the kind of view in front of me, and that makes me unable to think. I stood up as I held the book to my chest, and she finally broke her squat position to stand properly. I can still see her cleavage, but it's bearable now. "I'm just here to get this." I said as I waved the book. "I'm…I mean…My family owns The Pilgrim Bookstore."

She covered her mouth, looking pleasantly surprised. "Oh my, this is great! I came here because Clarissa let me borrow the keys to this library. She mentioned that the books at your store are kept safe in here and I'm dying to get a new book. She said I can check some, and that she'll inform you about it once she gets the chance. Well, now you know." She gave me a wide smile. "I'm glad you're here!"

My heart skipped, swirled, and probably even did a somersault. I smiled, making sure that my deep dimples were on display. "Well, I guess you should thank this book. I wouldn't have been in here if it weren't for Inferno."

She chuckled. "Why thank you, Inferno by Dan Brown! Are these new arrivals?" She asked excitedly, referring to the open boxes around us.

"Yes, they are."

"Awesome!"

She looked so ecstatic, I couldn't help but feel ecstatic as well for finding someone who was just like me. I didn't realize I've been observing her. I just stood there watching her go through the boxes in an awkward position. Her tall height was a bit of a disadvantage, and her floral white maxi dress was beautiful, but it wasn't letting her move much, so I left for a brief moment, then returned with two chairs. "Here."

"Oh my gosh, thank you!" She chuckled. "I could've gotten the chair myself, but it didn't cross mind because I'm too excited about these books."

"I know the feeling." I gently guided her to the chair as if sitting was a hard thing to do. I guess I just wanted to be a gentleman. I took a seat myself, then started reading. Every little while, I stole a glimpse of her. She looked really hot, I could barely understand what I was reading because my mind was somewhere else. When I came to my senses, I shook my head and shunned the dirty thoughts that were interrupting my mind.

For almost an hour, she just kept on reading the blurb at the back of the books. It seemed that she was having a hard time deciding which ones she wanted. Then, when she finally decided to settle on the three books that she was carrying on her chest, which I could hardly recognize because my eyes were somewhere else, she was suddenly reminded of something. "Oh my gosh! The boat!" She looked at her watch. "I totally forgot the boat!"

"Why? What about the boat?"

"It's already 5:30! They're only available until five!"

"Really? It's 5:30? Wow, I didn't realize I've been here for too long."

"Me, too. I totally lost track of time! Let's take a look outside, and see if we're lucky." She hastily walked towards the door and I followed her. Instead of going downstairs, she looked through the window first. "There's no one there anymore. Come on, let's go outside to further check." We swiftly went downstairs.

She looked so panicked, but there was not even a teeny tiny bit in my entire being that felt anything close to panic. In fact, I was secretly wishing there'd be no boat outside, so that I could spend more time with her.

When we reached the ground floor and looked for any signs of boat outside the gate, there was none. "Oh no, I guess we're not so lucky."

But I'm so lucky! I kept this thought to myself. If she only knew what I had been thinking, she'd probably slap me. We both went back to the library, holding our books as if it were our only comfort. I used to be so excited and couldn't wait to read Inferno, but now, that was the last thing I had in mind.

I have read books where two people of the opposite sex got stranded and there's never an instance when nothing happened, so I felt excited. Here I was, with a beautiful woman, stuck in the library for the whole night, with a possibility of making my fantasies become real. What is it with teenage boys and these uncontrollable desires?

But then, I suddenly got nervous when we got to our seats. I'm a virgin. I don't have experience except for watching porn and using my hands to satisfy myself. It would be too embarrassing to make a move and not know what to do. Or well, I know what to do, but I'm not sure if I'll get it right. I don't want my first time to be a failure. Wait, why am I even thinking about this when I just met her? She's clearly older than I am, so I don't think she even sees me as a man. I'm so ridiculous for even thinking I had a chance with her. Just because things are possible in books, doesn't mean they can happen in real life. I let out a sigh of disappointment. So long, fantasies.

"What are you thinking?" She asked.

My eyes went wide and I suddenly felt guilty. Did she read my mind? Did she feel like I'm some kind of pervert, fantasizing about her? I hope not, because I'm not a pervert, I'm just a normal 18-year-old virgin who wants to be a man. "Nothing, why?"

"You look so pensive. Are you scared that it's going dark soon? There are no candles here and we're stuck."

"No, not at all. I'm fine."

"Well, I'm not fine. I'm scared of the dark."

"I'm here. I can assure you there aren't any monsters around in this library at night."

She sighed. "I can't believe I completely lost track of the time."

"It's normal. We all lose track of time once in a while. I mean, well, for me that happens a lot when I'm reading."

"Yeah. Me, too. I don't believe you're not worried though. You really looked worried a while ago. You don't have to act brave around me. After all, there's nobody in here but us. You don't have to be embarrassed." She gave me a supportive look.

"Nah, I was just thinking about boobs." Oh my God, did I just say that out loud? "I meant, books. BOOKS. That's what I meant. BOOKS." I covered my face with my left hand to hide my embarrassment. "BOOKS." I felt frozen, and I didn't think I could ever show my face again, until I heard her laughing.

"I love honest minds!" She continued to laugh.

"I'm sorry."

"No, it's all good. I mean, this is very entertaining for me. My worries just suddenly went away."

"Really?"

"Yeah."

"You're not mad?"

"Of course not. It's a compliment. Why would I be mad?"

"Because it's inappropriate."

"Not if I'm attracted to you. I think you're cute and interesting. I actually watched you sleep for like maybe five minutes."

My eyes and mouth opened wide from shock. "Wow. I don't know what to say."

"Well, sometimes, when you don't know what to say, you can just show it."

"What do you mean?" Of course, I know what she meant, but I didn't want to get the wrong idea.

"If you can't express something that's on your mind, just do it."

"I'm not quite getting what you mean." God, what is it exactly that she wants? I'd be willing to do anything.

"You like my boobs, right?"

My ears couldn't believe what I was hearing. Am I in some kind of parallel universe? Is this the real world? "Yeah…I mean, what guy doesn't like boobs, right?"

"Come in here and feel it then. I want you to."

My jaw dropped. And there was an instant lust that swallowed my rational mind, but I felt stuck on my chair, frozen at the situation. All I could do was stare at her. She was clearly seducing me. "Well, if you're not making the first move, then I will because I'm starting to get bored."

Then, without warning, she stood up, sat on my lap and kissed me. When I tasted her lips, there was a different person within me that awakened. I gently pulled out because I was out of breath, plus I had to ask something, "What's your name? You haven't told me your name."

"Serena."

She kissed me again while rubbing herself to my hardness. "What's yours?"

"Uriel." I said, while cupping her breasts. At that very moment, I felt like I was the luckiest man on Earth.
