Vanessa

I wake up at the sound of a drawer closing and even though it takes me a few seconds to open my eyes, I can hear movements all around the room. I can also feel the difference of the softness of the bed and the fragrance in the air, everything confirming that I did sleep in Dominic's bed.

Just as I think about how I moved away from the edge last night and nothing happened between us, I open my eyes and gasp, rolling over at the sight of his cock dangling not too far away from me as he applies his moisturizer.

He chuckles. "Relax, it's just my-"

"I know what it is." I cut him off as I look away.

"I hope you didn't wake up because of me."

"Actually, I did."

He pauses, dropping his hands. "Really?"

"Yeah, but it's no big deal."

"I just couldn't wait. I need to travel as soon as possible."

As he goes on to tell me about the details, I can't stop glancing at his cock just dangling and it's hard to focus on his words. Last evening, I tried as much as possible not to look as he was dressing up, only for him to stand before me completely naked this morning. Though it isn't any different from what I did when I dropped my towel, I just can't get over the sight of his cock.

"If you need anything, call me," he says, putting on his boxer briefs.

"I'll be fine," I assure him. "Besides, I'm spending this afternoon with my father-in-law."

"And what about this morning?"

"I'll just look into the new member of the management team."

"Cool." He nods.

The only thing I want to do right now is ask him what his plan is for Carmella now that she's already exposing his best kept secret, but remembering how upset he was about it, I choose to say nothing and decide to wait until he talks about it first.

If it was something that didn't affect both families, I wouldn't even care, but it does.

While he continues to dress up, I head to the bathroom to wash my face, still smiling as I look around at how this is now my bedroom.

I come out when he's already dressed up in a suit and about to leave and this is the moment I've been waiting for.

Yesterday, he brought me back here then left for work without a kiss and at the time, I told myself that it was only because he was picking me up from my father's house, which is why I wonder how this moment will go.

"I'll come straight to my parents' house later to pick you up," he says, grabbing his briefcase.

"Of course. Take care of yourself." I clench my fist behind my back, feeling the distance between us widen.

And with that, he heads out the door, making my heart sink as I nod to myself and accept the fact that all those kisses from before were all just out of pity. It's because I'm no longer in the state I was in that he's decided to no longer do it for me. It might hurt, but it's better this way. At least, that's what I tell myself.

Lunch with my father-in-law at his residence turns out to be better than I expected as I feel so at ease and he makes me laugh a few times even as we talk about my father's health.
