The Assignment

I wanted to see her again. And I needed an excuse.

As I looked over at a pile of overripe bananas on my counter, I got an idea.

Just call me the paleo Betty Cocker.

I hoped I was doing the right thing. I’d told her I would leave without talking about what we did, but this was the next day, right? A whole new day was fair game. We didn’t need to discuss anything either. It was breakfast.

Just breakfast.

I’d texted her that I was coming by. She seemed okay with it. Hopefully that was really the case.

I got to her doorstep and knocked.

A few seconds later, Aspyn opened the door.

Her long hair was still as messy as it had looked when I left last night, and she still wore the same short, silk robe that clung to her tits perfectly. Her nipples pierced the fabric, and I was thrilled that she still hadn’t put a bra on.

“Hey,” she said groggily.

“Hi.” I smiled, my eyes falling to her neck. Aspyn had marks all over her skin from where I’d sucked on her last night. My dick stiffened with the realization that I’d marked her. It made me yearn for a repeat right this second. She must have noticed me gawking because she adjusted the robe.

Show over.

“I brought breakfast,” I announced, holding out the Tupperware. “Your not-so-favorite cookies, since you said they’re good with coffee in the morning.”

“When the hell did you make them?”

“3 AM. Patrick helped.”

“You didn’t sleep?”

“I was a little wired. Had quite a night, but I’m not allowed to talk about it.” I pretended to zip my lips. “Just here for an innocent breakfast.”

Her eyes wandered all over me. “Breakfast is all you’re here for, huh?”

I gulped. “Yep.” My eyes lowered to her chest again as my mouth watered. “Aspyn, last night was incredible. The truth is, I couldn’t sleep because I needed more.”

“Why did you leave, then?”

“Because I was trying to give you space. I knew if I stayed, I’d fuck something up or cross some boundary. Not to mention, I didn’t have any more condoms.”

“Well, we might as well have been together. I was up all night, too.”

That surprised me. “You were?”

“Yes.”

She walked over to the coffeemaker and poured me a cup. “How do you take it?”

Even her simple question made me think dirty thoughts. You bent over the damn counter with your ass cheeks spread apart sounds really good right about now.

I cleared my throat. “You probably don’t have cream or sugar, right?”

“I do keep sugar in the house for Kiki. I don’t have cream, but I have milk?”

“That’s perfect. One sugar and some milk will be great.” I want to fucking milk you.

I watched as she prepared my coffee, tempted to hug her from behind, then flip her around and kiss her hard. Instead, I reluctantly kept my distance.

She handed me a mug. “Here you go.”

I took it from her and sipped. “Thank you. I needed this.”

Aspyn poured herself the usual black coffee and leaned against the counter across from me.

“What do you normally do on Sundays?” I asked.

“It’s my catch-up day before Kiki comes home tonight. I usually clean, go food shopping, stuff like that. What about you?”

“Sometimes I bring Nonno donuts for breakfast. Not today, obviously. I work out at some point usually. Sundays are pretty lazy for me.”

Aspyn opened the cookie container and took one out before dunking it into her coffee. She bit into it and chewed for a few seconds. “Mmm… These taste better than the last batch. Did you do something different?”

She noticed. “I added some coconut flakes my dad had in the cupboard,” I said proudly.

“Ah. I could tell. Really nice addition.”

“The bananas were even riper this time, too.”

I watched as she continued to eat the cookie and her mind seemed to wander.

“What are you thinking, Aspyn?”

She let out a long sigh. “I’m thinking I don’t know what to do with you.”

“I have a few ideas.”

“Yeah. That’s the problem. I don’t even know how to act around you right now.” She took a sip of her coffee.

“Can I be honest?”

“Yes,” she said with her mouth full of cookie.

“I don’t know what the fuck I’m doing either. I’m just fairly certain I won’t get to see you this week because you’ll have Kiki. So I didn’t want to stay away today. I missed you.”

“It’s only been seven hours.” She chuckled.

“I think I might be addicted.” I pointed my thumb toward the door. “I can totally leave if you’d rather I let you get going with your day.”

“No.” Her eyes moved over me. “I don’t want you to go.”

Her insistence that I stay gave me courage. “I can’t stop thinking about doing you from behind.”

She turned crimson as she put her coffee down.

I took a chance. “Turn around.”

Things moved pretty fast from there. Aspyn leaned against the counter as I slipped her robe above her waist and undid my jeans. The thong she wore left little to the imagination. Despite last night, I hadn’t gotten a good look at her beautiful ass in broad daylight until now.
