Dominate (University of Gatica #5) (9 page)

The party was hosted by Cornell’s track and field team, held at a house off-campus. Aileen had gone along at Jani’s request to visit more than willingly. There was a good chance Tyler would be there, and Aileen wanted to see him.

Jani had a sky blue dress that left most of her long legs bare, and Aileen made a point of telling her how good it looked. Her roommate looked over the black skirt and forest green shirt that Aileen was wearing, and clapped her hands.

“You look fantastic!”

Aileen smiled, smoothing the hem of the skirt with her hands. It was a little shorter than the hemlines she was used to wearing, but she could live with that. Especially if Tyler liked it.

It wasn't hard to find the house where the party was.

There were cars parked out in front of it, and several people Aileen recognized from the weekend’s meet standing around and talking in the yard. As they approached, they could hear the faint thump of bass from somewhere inside the house.

“You ready for this?” Jani asked.

Aileen laughed. “More than. And so are you. Let's go get 'em.”

They jogged up the steps together and Jani knocked on the door.

It opened just a crack, revealing the face of a boy who was probably about their age. He gave them both a long look, and grinned. “You know, I was going to ask if you two know the password, but I think we'll just skip that whole formality.”

“Know the password?” Jani repeated.

“Yup.” The young man took a step back, swinging the door open wider in a silent invitation for them to come in.

“Is there really a password?” Aileen asked as she passed.

He grinned at her. “Wouldn’t you like to know?”

Inside, there were at least five or six dozen athletes gathered in groups with drinks in their hands, talking or swaying along to music. Over in one corner, someone had set up what looked like a game of charades, which Aileen had never actually seen anyone under forty play before, but they seemed to be having a great time.

Her body found Tyler immediately.

He was leaning against a wall, speaking to two girls who were leaning entirely too close to him, but when he looked up over their heads and saw Aileen, he smiled, immediately pushing past them to walk across the room to her side. “Hey,” he said, voice pitched low and soft. “Glad to see you made it.”

“We almost didn't,” Jani said, grinning. “Thankfully the nice boy at the door let us in even though we didn't know the password.

Tyler laughed. “He must have been blinded by your beauty.”

If he was still speaking to Jani, it was hard to tell, because his eyes were blatantly on Aileen, moving over her body. She felt her skin wake under the look, the tiny hairs standing up like every part of her body wanted to reach out and touch him.

“Well,” Jani said, filling in for Aileen, whom she had obviously realized was currently incapable of rational speech. “We are kind of gorgeous. You've seen what Aileen is wearing.”

“I've seen what Aileen is wearing,” Tyler said, voice throaty.

“And that is my cue to go,” Jani said.

She must have left, then, but Aileen didn't see her. She was looking at Tyler, into those grey-amber-green eyes that were searching hers just as deeply as she looked into his.

“So,” he said.

“So,” she echoed.

“You came here to see me?”

Aileen raised an eyebrow at him. “What makes you assume that? Maybe I just came here to have a drink and meet a few of the Cornell track and field athletes.”

Tyler moved in closer, circling slowly around her, and Aileen's heart beat fast in her chest. She thought the prickle of awareness as he moved in his slow circuit must be what it felt like to be inspected by a tiger. Or a lion. Something sleek and beautiful and maybe a little bit dangerous.

“I think…” Tyler said, sounding completely confident, “that you thought I’d be here.”

“I think you assume too much.”

“It didn’t cross your mind? You didn’t put that short, sexy skirt on just for me?” The questions didn’t sound like questions; they came across more as statements.

She had. And it was why she'd come. But Aileen wasn't going to confess that to him. He'd never let her live it down. “I figured you might be,” she said, trying to keep it casual, shrugging to try to make it look like it was no big deal.

“And so you just thought you'd come to a place where I might be, with no intention of seeing me?”

“I never said I had no intention of seeing you,” Aileen said, her mouth suddenly dry. She was thinking about the kiss that they'd shared just before the final. That slow, hungry kiss that had practically made her melt against him. It had felt like water after weeks in the desert.

“I'm going to take that as a win,” Tyler laughed. “After all, you know how I hate to lose.”

She did. She took a step closer, like she couldn't help herself. She was drawn to him. Wanted him. There was no escaping it.

“So,” he said again, and this time he reached out and caught her hand in his own, drawing her in close. “I think we should go enjoy the party.”

“Enjoy it how, exactly?”

He grinned wickedly. “That, I think, is up to you.”

***

Tyler paced his hotel room. He could have sworn he was burning holes in the carpet he was moving so fast. As they’d left the party to go their separate ways, Aileen had whispered something about everyone going to bed and that her roommate slept like a rock. If he stopped by around 1 am, she’d be awake. He knew what type of invitation that was, and couldn’t wait for the clock to hit 1 am. It had only been half an hour since he’d left her after a night of dancing and drinking, but even that little amount of time seemed like far too much to him. He continued to check every thirty seconds until finally, he looked over his shoulder and the numbers 1:00 were flashing in a bright red. It was time for him to make his way down to her floor and to track down room 1503.

Tyler left his room, making sure not to disturb his own sleeping roommate, closing the door quietly, and sprinted to the elevator, pressing the down button over twenty times, trying to make the elevator come to him faster. In that moment he was frustrated and annoyed that he had been placed on the 20
th
floor. He wanted to be down on the 15
th
floor, with easy access to Aileen.

DING!

The elevator finally arrived and Tyler jumped in between the doors, banging on the number 15 button over and over until the doors closed behind him. Luckily for him the elevator didn’t make any stops between the 20
th
and 15
th
floor. The elevator opening to his floor of freedom, Tyler ducked down the hallway in search of the whispered number.

Finding it, he gently tapped on the door, grinning like a fool as Aileen opened the door, wearing the smallest of night shirts, just flashing him the bottom of her blue panties.

“Hey…” She opened the door wide for him and gestured with her head into the smaller front bedroom of the two-bedroom suite. Tyler moved as slowly and silently as he could, hoping not to wake Jani as he moved into the back of the hotel bedroom, plopping himself on the bed and kicking off his shoes. Aileen followed him in and shut the door to her bedroom, smiling as she stood in front of the door, not going anywhere near him or the bed.

“Are you sure you want me here?”

Aileen nodded, moving a little closer, rubbing her fingertips up and down along the front of her chest. “Mmhmm, I
really
want you here.”

Tyler patted the spot next to him, beckoning Aileen to join him in the comfort of the soft mattress. As soon as Aileen was close enough he pulled her into his lap, causing her to squeal with delight, squirming against his hold. Aileen quickly covered her mouth and glared at Tyler, motioning for him to be quiet with a finger against her lips.

“I’m not the one making the noise.” Tyler began to tickle her ribs, loving how she squirmed against his lap. Catching her off guard, Tyler gripped her hips and threw her up further onto the bed, landing her legs on each side of his body. Aileen smiled down at him, while he nuzzled his face against her smooth, soft leg, trailing kisses along the back side of her leg, flicking his tongue against the back of her knee.

Aileen tried to fight her urge to laugh and squeal as Tyler tickled her. Leaning her head back she tried to ignore all of his touches, the sudden surprise of his tongue against the back of her knee causing her head to jerk up, staring down at him between her legs.

“Remember that night I came over?”

Aileen laughed. “Which one? There were a lot of them, I think.”

“Hmm,” Tyler mused, reaching up to trace two fingers along her sex through the thin fabric of her panties. “I think it’s only fair that I return the favor.”

“To which favor, specifically, are you referring?” Aileen teased in a whisper.

Tyler didn’t need any more words to explain his meaning to her. He crawled up between her legs, reaching up to her panties and pulling them to the side. He moved his head even closer, inhaling the scent of her before dipping his tongue into her core. Growling against her as his tongue feasted on her moist flesh. Aileen clamped her legs around his head, her hips wiggling from side to side, the new experience driving her absolutely insane.

Tyler looked up for a second to catch Aileen reaching for one of the pillows and covering her mouth with it, moaning into the pillow to keep from waking her roommate. Tyler put his head back to where he’d just been, continuing his groans that were muffled by her thighs. He pushed his tongue deeper inside her, the taste filling his mouth only making him hungrier. Needing more access, he forced her thighs apart. Pushing his head further between her legs, moving his tongue up to swirl around her sensitive nub. Aileen removed the pillow from her lips, gasping for air, letting cool, fresh air fill her lungs before trying to look down at Tyler as he tortured her with his tongue.

“Tyler, please,” she hissed under her breath. “I can’t take much more.”

Tyler only growled in response, wanting to keep eating her; he moved his tongue back down into her core, rubbing his nose against her nub at the same time. Aileen thrashed against his head, grinding herself harder into him as she moved the pillow back over her mouth, letting out a deep scream as release flooded her core.

Tyler swallowed hard, taking everything her body was giving him. When Aileen stopped shaking and grinding against his face he moved his head away, wiping his lips against her shirt sleeve and crawling up her body. “Did you enjoy that, baby?”

“Mm-hmm. That was, indescribable.”

“Good. I wanted to make you feel amazing.”

“You always make me feel amazing.”

Tyler smiled proudly. He wanted her to feel like the only girl in the world and tonight he was going to make sure that is exactly how she felt. He leaned back on his haunches and pulled off his shirt, tossing it beside the bed and hovering over her. His hands moved to the end of her nightie and pulled. Aileen lifted her arms up over her head and allowed Tyler to finish pulling it off of her body. He tossed her shirt down on the floor with his and wiggled himself backwards until he could grab a hold of the waistband of her panties, keeping eye contact with her as he slowly backed away, taking her panties down her legs as he moved. Aileen lifted her feet up and pointed her toes, allowing her panties to be removed easily, her legs falling apart to each side of the bed, spreading herself completely naked in the center of the bed.

Her breathing becoming shallow as she watched him. He slipped off the bed and unbuckled his belt, slipping out of his jeans and boxers, kicking them off to the corner of the room and kneeling back on the bed, crawling up along her body till he was hovering entirely over her. His erection was just barely out of reach of her core, her hips lifting up and rubbing against it, the tip searching for an entrance. Tyler looked down between their bodies and watched a moment, seeing how her body looked rubbing against him. He loved the sight between her legs, but suddenly he felt a flash of embarrassment, his cheeks growing a subtle shade of red as he looked back and forth between his member and Aileen.

“I, umm…”

Aileen giggled her sweet giggle and tilted her body enough so that she could reach the hotel nightstand, pulling the drawer open and pulling out a foil packet. Tyler arched his eyebrow in question as he noticed her holding a condom: she was more prepared than he was tonight. He grinned as he watched her; she just shrugged and winked at him. Lifting it to her mouth, she tore the package open and discarded it on the table. Playing with the lubricated latex, she looked up at Tyler.

“Can I try doing it?”

Tyler nodded and straightened his back, revealing to her his large erection, letting it point directly at her nose. She blushed and bit back a laugh as she tried to slide the latex onto his shaft. It took her a few tries but once it was on, she rolled it all the way down and looked up at Tyler with a proud smile. Tyler grinned at how innocent she seemed in that moment; he knew better but it still made it that much sweeter to be with her. He leaned down and kissed her softly, his erection rubbing against her stomach as their mouths explored each other. He loved kissing her.
