Cry to Me

"When did you graduate vet school?"

Dulci felt like she was on a job interview and she was starting to sweat. The questions seemed standard, formal, and forced, as if they were asked to all of Sidney's potential significant others, or friends as he called her. Every one of Dulci's responses was met with a stone cold face and a "hmm," or a nod. If Dulci had difficulty reading Sidney, she sure as hell couldn't read his father.

"I graduated in 2012. I moved to Pittsburgh shortly after," Dulci explained as she took an uneasy bite of the dinner she prepared for Sidney and his family.Shortly before she left Sidney’s house earlier that morning to run errands, Sidney was boasting about her cooking abilities and asked if she could make dinner for the four of them.She decided it would be a way to see more of him and to check on Sam later that evening.

"What did you graduate from?"

"Virginia-Maryland Regional College of Veterinary Medicine. It's part of Virginia Polytechnic Institute. I attended undergrad there as well. I'm a Hokie through and through." She took a large gulp of Pinot Grigio hoping that the inquisition would end soon or that someone could steer the subject away from her. At the same time, she felt Sidney's hand graze from her knee to her mid thigh before taking up residence there. At first, she thought he was trying to make her squirm in front of his parents, getting her hot and bothered at the dinner table. But as he gave her leg a few light rubs, it seemed innocent and concerning. She took his hand in hers and squeezed it, praying he would understand the gesture as a cry for help. He did advice her to tell him when his father was becoming unbearable.

"So dad, did you watch the New York-Phili game?"

As the two men started discussing the ins and outs of the game, Dulci tried to listen, but she couldn’t comprehend anything that was said because she was stuck in her own head. She was so elated that Sidney took her cue that she was uncomfortable and moved the dinner conversation away from her. She stared admiringly at him as he talked animatedly about other teams in the league, some that she'd never heard of. She remembered him telling her how sexy it was for a woman to be passionate about what she loves, and the same could be said for him.She adored how intense he could get, speaking with his hands occasionally.She noticed that when he was taking in information, he would slowly nod his head up and down in understanding.And then there was his handsome smile that one contagious, and his lips.Dulci caught herself gawking at his mouth, the way it moved, how plump and slightly chapped his lips were.When she thought about the way he used it pleasurably on her body, she lowered her head and smiled, lost in her own moment.Without missing a beat or evening breaking his concentration with Troy, he laced his fingers between hers, rubbing small soothing circles between her thumb and pointer fingers. She was so entranced with him that she didn't hear Trina addressing her.

"Dulci? Dear?"

"I'm sorry. Must've been daydreaming," Dulci subtly shook her head, slightly embarrassed at how much she felt like an adolescent longing for a crush.

"I was asking if you would like more wine?" Trina started pouring Dulci another glass before she even responded. She would eventually have to drive home. While Sidney made it obvious to her that he wanted her to stay, she couldn't while his parents were staying there, regardless of the size of his house.

"Don't worry, honey. There are plenty of extra rooms if you need to stay," Trina said in a hushed voice so the men didn't hear.

"We'll see." She didn't want Trina or Troy to think she was sexually involved with their son, her friend. Plus, she rarely got to spend quality time with her own family. She didn't know how often his parents would make the trip from Canada, but she wanted them to spend together. Sidney must've been eavesdropping because he squeezed Dulci's hand after his mother's comment.

"And, you must give me this recipe. It was delicious! What's the sauce?"

"Absolutely! It's a red chili paste. It's easy to make and you can make it spicier depending on your taste. And, it's good on just about ever meat imaginable." Dulci was silently thankful that Trina was so amiable to her. She made Dulci feel more than welcome into their family even though they'd only met ten hours before.

"So, Dulci, where do you work?" Troy brought his frosty gaze back to Dulci.

"At a local hospital about thirty minutes from here. It's a private small animal practice that also sees emergencies on a daily basis." She felt like she had to give out more information than necessary to appease him.

"Her dream is to open her own clinic," Sidney finished her answer for her. Again, she was in awe of him. He remembered things that were important to her that she’d forgotten she’d even told him.

"That's a pretty grandiose goal for such a young woman. Do you have any business experience?"

"It wouldn't be anytime soon. Down the road in ten years or so, I'd like to open a clinic that specializes in rehabilitation, orthopedics, and geriatric medicine. It's just a dream of mine." Dulci looked away, suddenly feeling ashamed that she had big aspirations. How could he make her feel so small when his son shot higher than she ever had?She was starting to get annoyed that he couldn't pay her one small compliment or any positive feed back at all.

"I'm assuming that starting a clinic is just as expensive as opening any business. Would you be able to finance this business venture yourself?”

“I haven’t really looked into the financial aspect of opening my own hospital.My brother works in business and financing, so if I decide to go that route, I’m sure he would be glad to help me.”Dulci tried her hardest to speak as pleasantly as possible given that she wanted to tell him off.She could be filthy rich for all he knew, able to successfully start her own business with flying colors.

“That’s good to hear.I was just curious as to whether you were saving money or looking to find a wealthy benefactor,” Troy finished looking at Sidney.At first, Dulci didn’t know how to respond.Was he insinuation that she would try and use Sid’s money to open her hospital?

"Dad." Sidney's jaw was clenched. His tone was more than a warning.

"Like I said, it's just a dream of mine. I would be fine if it never came to fruition." Dulci finished her third glass of wine. If Troy wanted to be a prick, she wouldn't go down without at least standing her ground and smiling as she did it.

"I'm going to go clean up the kitchen. Excuse me." Dulci let go of Sidney's hand to leave the table. When she looked at him, he was giving his father a frightening look. As she walked away, she could hear Sidney asking why he always did this. To get her mind off of the less than appealing dinner conversation, she busied herself with dishes.

"Don't worry about him. He'll come around. He's very protective of Sidney," Trina comforted her, taking the dishes out of the strainer to hand dry them.

"It's ok. I understand where he's coming from," Dulci smiled at Trina. He just didn't have to be a royal dick about it.The two ladies carried on a light conversation about cooking.

“How did the peppers turn out?”Trina asked keeping her eyes on her task.

“Really well.Although, it was entertaining watching someone try to crumble sausage with the synthetic casing still on,” Dulci said trying not to giggle.

“I know.He told me.He was embarrassed about it.He really wanted to impress you.He was never much of a cook.Well, that and he was never home enough to learn.”

Trina gave Dulci Sidney’s brief childhood history about leaving home at such a young age.

"Well, I'm off to bed. Too much wine. It was lovely meeting you today. Thank you for taking care of Sam. And thank you for the delicious dinner. Intelligent and knows how to cook," Trina praised as she hugged Dulci.

"Maybe I'll see you in the morning?"

"Perhaps," Dulci answered with a nod.

As Trina walked away, Dulci blushed. What else had he told his mother about her?It was probably obvious that they were more than friends, but how awkward would it be if come morning, Trina checked all the guest bedrooms and Dulci was nowhere to be found except lying naked in bed with her son?If she stayed, which she desperately wanted to, it would be the first time in four days that she and Sidney would be alone together. She craved him more than she cared to admit. Just the thought of him touching her gave her butterflies in the best possible way. But, she couldn't have sex with him when his parents were around, and she promised herself that no matter how hard he tried, she wouldn't.

"Need any help?" Sidney interrupted her as she scrubbed the stove.

"I'm ok. You should go spend time with your family," Dulci gestured toward the kitchen door with her rag.

"Well my dad is on a business call, and my mom just told you she was going to bed." As he settled against the counter, he rubbed his eyes. Throughout dinner, she could tell he was tired, and with a full belly of a Thai inspired dinner, she could only imagine how sleepy he felt.

"You look exhausted. Maybe you should go to bed," Dulci suggested as she packed up the leftovers.

"And miss out on time with you after four days? I don't think so," he smiled drowsily at her.

"Come watch TV with me," he said with a yawn.

Once they lounged comfortably on his plush oversized couch, Dulci thought for sure Sid would be asleep within minutes, especially since he turned off most of the lights. He pulled her to him, kissing her temple before focusing back on the TV.

"What would you like to watch?" He looked at her, a little more alert than before.

"Whatever you want to watch is fine."

"You do realize that given a choice, I will watch something sports related, right?" He flashed her a crooked smile.

"Of course."

The two fell into a comfortable silence as Sidney watched sports center and Dulci tried to keep up. He would explain different aspects of each sport to her, but it was a waste because she was falling asleep.

A little while later, he switched it to a west coast game, Anaheim verses Washington, and the Capitals were ahead by one goal in the first period.

“Look. Your team is actually winning,” Sidney gently squeezed Dulci.When he got no response, he looked down to see her sound asleep, mouth slightly ajar.He smiled because of how adorable she looked in such a deep sleep.Thinking it would be more comfortable for her to lie down, he rotated the two of them so that he was one his back, stretched out horizontally, and Dulci was almost completely on top of him. He pulled a blanket on top of them and settled in to finish the game.When he checked a couple minutes later to see if she was still asleep, he noticed a large pool of drool on his chest.He knew Dulci would be mortified if she knew she’d drooled on him, but he didn’t mind.It was one of those very intimate moments that couples share behind closed doors.It was real and uncensored.

By the third period, Sidney was silently rooting for Anaheim to win. He thought that by her movements, Dulci was starting to rouse from her sleep.He assumed at first it was from his quiet cursing at the TV, but when he heard her sniffle, he looked down at her.Her face looked tormented and dejected, and it was confirmed when a tear crossed the bridge of her nose onto his tee shirt.He figured maybe it was a fluke, but as the tears continued and she started mumbling, some of it was understandable, he contemplated on waking her up in case she was having a nightmare.He shook her arm softly at first, quietly calling her name.When she didn’t respond, he called her name louder, making her open her eyes.She looked around, confused, before seeing him and looking away.

“I think you were having a bad dream,” Sidney said, wiping the streams off of her cheeks with his thumb.

“I think you’re right,” she said trying to sit up, but one of her legs was stuck between Sidney and the couch.

“What were you dreaming?”

“I don’t remember,” she lied, wiping her eyes before successfully getting up.

“I’m going to get some water. Do you need anything?”

“No thanks.” Sidney smiled at her before his eyes turned back to the TV.

She did have a nightmare. She dreamt that she walked in on Sidney and Carly talking.At first she couldn’t understand their conversation, but when Carly touched his face and he leaned into it, she knew he would go back to Carly.Then she heard it.Carly never had the abortion.She was pregnant, keeping the baby, and wanted to become a family.When she told him, Sidney instinctively touched her stomach, and Dulci felt nauseous watching in on such a private moment.He looked happy.He picked her up and spun her around, ending in a loving kiss before asking Carly to marry him. When Dulci made her presence known, they two just looked at her like she was an annoyance.She asked Carly why she didn’t have the abortion like she was supposed to, like she wanted.Dulci knew she sounded selfish, but she was hurt and rejected.Sidney told Dulci to leave and all of a sudden, she was being pulled out of the house as the two shared another loving moment before she woke up.As Dulci opened the bottled water and took a large drink, she hoped that dream never came true.

When she walked back into the living room, Sidney was sitting up with his feet resting on the coffee table. She sat next to him, but before long, he had pulled her onto his lap so she was straddling him.

“Are you ok? Tell me what’s going on up there,” he asked pushing hair out of her eyes.She thought about telling him the truth that she dreamt he left her for a pregnant Carly, but she thought it would be too soon to talk about how she felt about him, not until he told her how he felt.

“Too much wine,” seemed like a valid answer, and it was partially true.

“You and my mom did polish off a couple of bottles.”

“Your mom is a very sweet lady. I like her,” Dulci told him, telling the first solid truth since she woke up.

“That’s good, because she likes you. Before she met you, she wanted to swap recipe repertoires.”It made Dulci smile.He obviously talked about her to his mother.

“Gosh, I have hundred of recipes that I’ve made and loved,” she gushed at the thought of her binders of clipped magazine recipes.

“And I can’t wait to try them all,” he said with a sexy smile as he pulled her down for a kiss. It was everything Dulci wanted in a kiss, especially after dreaming that he left her.She kissed him back with a fervor that told him she wanted him, needed him, and more importantly, that she loved him.Everything about him was intoxicating, his laugh, his smile, his body, his eyes, his smell, the way he exhaled loudly through his nose against her cheek as he kissed her, the way his hands found their way into the back of her jeans and underwear, slowly raking his nails against her butt cheeks as he pulled them out.It was such an erotic sensation, something he’d never done before, and she vocalized a small moan into his mouth as he did it again.Dulci was so aroused by the kissing that she didn’t notice he snaked his hands under her shirt to unsnap her bra until she felt the loose fabric brushing against her nipples, making them perk up.He slowly pushed her shirt up around her neck so that he could take one of her nipples into his mouth while he used his fingers on the other, making all of the blood shoot to her clitoris.

Her resolve to abstain from sex while his parents were visiting flew out the window as his lips, tongue, and fingers worked magic on her. She just hoped his parents didn’t interrupt.She grabbed the bottom of her blouse and pulled it out, throwing it behind her along with her bra.Without warning, he pushed himself off the couch, Dulci in his arms, and laid her down on top of the coffee table.He quickly unbuttoned her jeans and ripped them off before spreading her legs and licking her from canal to clit.Dulci slapped a hand over her mouth to stifle her moans while he sucked her clit with everything he had.While his mouth was latched on, he would nod his head up and down, from side to side, in circles, focusing on her body language and sounds to figure out what she liked best.Delicately pushing two fingers in, quickly finding her swollen g-spot, he pushed up on it while he pushed his face down onto her with more pressure.She almost came off the table it felt so good, pressing both hands over her mouth fearing she would scream and wake his parents up.Leaning back, he replaced his mouth with his fingers, pressing circles into her clit hard and fast, causing her legs to tremble.

“Uncover your mouth,” he demanded huskily.

Barely hearing him, she averted her eyes down to meet his. He eyes were fixed on hers as he continued.His entire upper body was flexed from the job he was doing on her, a hint of sweat starting to form from exertion and arousal.

“I want to hear you come,” he told her as he pushed harder and faster. She put her hands down on each side of her, gripping the edge of the table for support.

“Suck my clit,” she gasped out, and when he licked it while keeping eye contact before he sucked and groaned at the same time, she threw her head back and howled as he continued his activity through her orgasm. She was still coming down when he lifted her off of the table and onto the carpet.She couldn’t say when he took his clothes off, but when he slowly pushed into her with his entire length, she gripped his back, hoping she didn’t bruise or scrap him with her nails.Sidney emitted a long groan into her neck as he stilled himself for a moment, but it wasn’t long before Dulci’s ankles were resting on his shoulders as he hugged her thighs and started thrusting, slowly at first, enjoying how wet and warm she was, before picking up speed.He watched as she caressed her stomach up to her breasts before playing with them.He watched as she took one hand and licked her two fingers, and placed them on her own clit for rubbing.Taking one hand, he brushed his thumb over her nipple, wishing he could bend to put it in his mouth.He released her legs and pushed her knees into the carpet next to her shoulders as he continued to drive into her at a new angle.

“Oh my god, Sidney,” she gasped as his dick continuously hit her g-spot like his fingers did. He felt the pressure start to build in her, more so than it had in the past, but he continued to drive her slowly across the carpet as he fucked her hard.He groaned as she came, literally pushing his dick out, but he used it for extra stimulation on her clit.Her whole body trembled as she finished coming, but before he could do anything, she was getting onto her knees and forcing him to lie on his back.He closed his eyes, thinking she was going to get on top, but instead felt a completely different sensation.Taken by surprise, he looked down to find her mouth on his dick, taking it all the way to the base until her nose was pressed into his pelvic bone.

“Fuuuccckkkk,” he groaned loudly as she repeated the action, her hands running up and down his abdomen. Within a couple of minutes, he gave her the courtesy warning that he was going to come.Thinking that she would stop using her mouth and finish him off with a hand job, he was astonished that she continued sucking his dick.

“Dulci,” he called her, not sure if she heard his warning, and when she shot her eyes up to meet his, gently sucking on the head before lowering completely back down to his pelvis, he came with a loud grunt, gripping her hair as he desperately tried not to fuck her face. She let him finish, feeling his abdominal muscles clench with every contraction, before crawling and lying next to him on the floor, both thoroughly exhausted and sexually satisfied.
