Chapter Twenty-Seven

The world froze as the ice cube tapped onto the ground. Alice and Keanu stood rooted to the ground, their bodies tense and fear at the fronts of their mind. Their heartbeats stopped as Mike looked at them.

"I'll be off then," Mike said. "I'll be back by tonight, Alice."

"Yeah!" Alice said, a little too eagerly as Mike left the kitchen and she heard the front door opening and closing. She bent forward, her hands on her knees as the aftermath of panic tore through her body. "Fuck, that was way too close!"

"Tell me about it," Keanu said as he heaved a sigh of relief.

"This can't ever happen again," Alice said firmly. "It just can't."

"What? What do you mean?"

She held onto his arm and pulled him after her all the way to the front door. Opening it, she pushed him out of the door. "I'm sorry, Keanu. This is over."

"Wait - " he said but she closed the door in his face. She stepped to the side and watched him in her intercom. He paused in front of the front door, hand raised but not touching the door. He put it down, only to raise it again, but he put it back down before he turned around and walked to his car.

She laughed playfully as she ran to her room and changed her outfit into a bikini, hidden under a trench coat. She skipped out of the back door and hailed a cab. She knew a short cut to his home that he never took because the roads were bumpy. However, it took about half the amount of time to reach his home.

So when she entered his home, it was expectedly empty. She knew Leonard was out of town because Keanu had told her that before. She dropped her trench coat in the living area, slid the door to the pool wide open and headed to the pool. She jumped into the pool with the bikini that flattered her figure the most on.

She swam around, having fun as she waited for him to arrive. She grinned when she heard his car pulling into the garage. Within moments, Keanu was at the doorway to the pool. She enjoyed the look on his face as it struck him slowly that she was in his pool. He leaned against the doorframe, his hands in his pockets as he grinned at her, the arousal on his expression plain.

"I thought you said it was over," Keanu said to her.

"I did!" Alice called out.

"And yet here you are in my pool."

She laughed, and that made him laugh too. "What? Things were over at my place, but they're just about to start at yours."

He walked into his backyard and approached the pool. Sitting down on the pool chair, his eyes followed her up and down the pool.

"I could get used to this view," he said.

"You haven't even seen anything yet," she said, reaching out to the ladder at the side of the pool. Slowly, she climbed out of the pool and water trailed down her neck, her breasts, down past the curves of her waist and across her toned thighs. She savoured the hard look the spread across his features as she stepped onto the pebbled floor. She wiped the moisture from her face, pushed her wet hair back and ran her fingers down her dripping body.

"Jesus," Keanu said, his mouth hanging open in horror.

She smiled, satisfied that he loved what he was seeing so much. She stepped to the side and reached into her tote, and removed an object. She returned to Keanu and slowly climbed onto his chair, putting either knee on either side of him. He gazed up at her, pleased shock written all over his face. He touched his hands to her waist, but she brushed them off and held a finger up at him.

"Did I say you could touch me?"

"But - "

"Don't touch me," she said.

He held his hands up in the air in surrender, a teasing smile on his face. "So you want to play it like this."

"Oh, you don't even know," she said.

Putting her hand on the head of the pool chair, she took the object in hand and held it up for him to see.

"Why do you have a dildo in your hand?" Keanu asked her.

She grinned, then turned it on. It vibrated in her hands and she dipped the sex toy down between her legs. Pushing her panties aside, she slid it slowly into her folds. She positioned herself directly above Keanu's lower body as she pushed the object in and out of her.

"Fucking hell, Alice," Keanu cursed out loud. "What the hell are you doing?"

"Just having some fun with myself."

"You're fucking yourself right above me with a dildo when I have a fully functional and very, very erect cock under that," Keanu said. "Christ."

She continued sliding the dildo in and out of her, and a moan left her mouth. She grabbed onto her breast with her other hand as she placed the dildo on top of his zipper and continued fucking herself.

"Let me touch you, please, Alice, I beg you."

She laughed. "No."

"Please, please," Keanu said. "I can't take this hell anymore."

"Fine, fine," she said.

His hand wrapped around the dildo and he flung it into the pool, and it disappeared into the water. Grabbing onto her hips, he hauled her off her feet and she giggled as he headed towards the sliding doors, kicking it open with his feet and bringing her all the way to his room.
