You Belong To Me (8 page)

She half expected to see a messy, unkempt typical man's bedroom, but instead she walked into an oasis. 
The room held a king size bed, hand crafted solid wood dressers, and a private patio overlooking the back yard. Masculine woolen blankets hung from the walls and facing the four poster bed, was a fireplace similar to the one downstairs but smaller in stature. “Mitch this is all so very beautiful, I don’t know how you even want to leave this place every day,” she exclaimed.

“Well, even though it is my sanctuary, it does get lonely.”

“I'm sorry Hun.”

“Danielle, you being here with me like this, already fills
the emptiness. Like I said you’re the only woman I have ever brought here and I want you to be the last.”

 
 Danielle couldn’t help but smile. “Mitch I’d like that, I’d like that very much.”

“Do you want to rest while I start the fire?”

“No way, I want to go back downstairs with you,” she grinned.

“You sure? Are you feeling okay? How's the head?” He said, gently touching her.

“It's better Mitch, it's a lot better thank you.”

“Good, then let's go get that fire started.”

  Once he reached Danielle's house and saw her car still parked in the driveway, Ethan had the incredible urge to get out and peer through her windows.  But he knew that would draw attention so he drove to the familiar street behind Danielle's house and planned on staying there awhile, all night if he had to. What he didn't plan on was old Mr. Peterson; Mr. Art Peterson had been told by Mitch as well as the police, that if he saw anything suspicious he should call them right away. Once he agreed and the officer had left, Mitch requested that he be called first. “You mean you want to know before the cops?” Art asked Mitch.

“Yes, that’s exactly what I'm saying Mr. Peterson, I need you to call me first.”

“Okay son, whatever you need. But I know that look in your eye son. You've got the look of true love in your eyes and it may not be any of my business, but take an old man's advice, you won't be any good to her locked up for hurting or worse, killing a man. Just remember that son.”

“I'll keep that in mind sir, I'll keep that in mind.”

Mitch wanted to get to Ethan before the cops did, he knew if he didn't, the cops would have nothing to hold him on and simply let him go, let him go back to his stalking and he wasn't going to allow that to happen.

“No, I’m just going to have a little talk with him mys
elf if he ever shows his coward ass around here again.”

Mitch would soon get his chance.

Gathering some fire wood from the neatly stacked wood pile outside, Mitch paused as his cell phone rang, “Hello?”

“Yeah, Mitch? Mr. Peterson here, Danielle's neighbor?”

“Mr. Peterson yes, what can I do for you?”

“Well son, you wanted to be the first one called if that car ever showed up.” 

Gripping the phone tighter Mitch replied, “Mr. Peterson are you saying he's there now?”

“That’s exactly what I'm saying son, he stopped right in front of the house, sat there a minute or two then drove over to the back and has been parked there ever since.”

“How long ago Mr. Peterson?”

“Oh I’d say he got here about five, ten minutes ago.”

“Mr. Peterson you keep a look out and call me if he leaves, I'm on my way.”

“Okay son, be careful.”

“Thank you Mr. Peterson.”

Hanging up the phone, Mitch was about to go and grab his keys when he remembered that Danielle was there, she was there waiting for him to come in and build a fire. Thinking quickly he took a deep breath and went inside.

“Danielle, I need to run to the store for a few things, would you mind staying here?”

“Huh? You don’t have to run out on my account.”

“No, no it's okay I’ll just be
a minute.”

“Well I’ll go with you.”

“No, you stay here and relax Danielle; I promise I won't be long.”

Looking at him, Danielle said, “Okay, be careful.”

“I will babe and your perfectly safe here Danielle, just make yourself at home and I'll be right back.”  After Kissing her, Mitch grabbed his keys trying not to look too anxious and headed out the door.

While she waited for Mitch to return, Danielle decided to give Shayla a call.

“Hey Shay.”

“Hey Dee, how are you? Are you with Mitch? Did you guys get to hi
s place yet? I hear it's gorgeous.”

“Yes I'm here and it's absolutely stunning Shay, Oh my god, I can't wait for you guys to see it. It's breathtaking, and he built it himself!”

“Ooh nice, well you know what that means don’t ya Dee?”

“No, what?”

“It means that he's good with his hands!”

Laughing, Danielle said, “Oh Shay you’re too much.”

“I know, I know, that's why you love me.”

“Hey, where is he?”

“He said he had to get some things from the store so he ran out, he'll be back soon.”

“He's gonna build a fire
, and cook us some dinner.”

“Nice, so are you up for some loving Danielle?”

“Shay, I'm more than up for it but I don't know if he'll want to, what should I do?”

“Don't worry, he'll want to, but just let it happen naturally Danielle, just be prepared if it
does. Go take a hot bath, put on something sexy.”

“Now that'll be a problem Shay, I only have the clothes you brought to the hospital for me to go home in.”

“Damn I forgot, okay well improvise, grab one of his tee- shirts and you'll be good to go.”

“Your r
ight Shay, you’re always there for me Shay, I appreciate you so very much,” her friend said.

“Now what kind of friend would I be if I weren't? And besides, you've always been there for me Danielle; it's time
I returned the favor. Hang on Danielle. Jason? Where are you going? Dinners almost ready babe.”

“Oh, yeah, I gotta run out be right back.” Danielle heard Jason’s reply.

“Okay, I'm back. Dee I tell ya, sometimes Jason can act so strange.”

“Why what’s up?”

“I don’t know, he got a call then next thing I know he's rushing out the door.”

“Oh my god Danielle, you don't think he's cheating on me do you?”

“What? Shay don’t be ridiculous. Jason loves you to pieces, did it ever occur to you that his call was work related and he had to go? After all, he is a contractor who also happens to have his plumbing license.”

“I know. I know I'm overreacting.”

“You over react? Now when have you ever done that Shay?”

 
After Finishing up her conversation with Shay, Danielle decided to go take that hot shower and find something sexy to put on for when Mitch arrived back home.

While sitting in his home office doing some paper work, Jason's cell rang, “Hello?”

“Hey Jason buddy, it's me Mitch, listen I don’t have a lot of time but can you meet me at Mr. Peterson's house? He just called and told me that Ethan is sitting in his car on the street behind Danielle's house. I thought you’d like to go pay him a visit with me buddy.”

“Hell yes! I’ll be right there.”

“Thanks buddy.”

Hanging up t
he phone, Jason grabbed his keys and was heading out the door when Shay stopped him and asked where he was going.

She was talking on the phone, ironically, probably to Danielle when he told her he had to run out. Thank god she wasn't the type to drill him
with questions, he hated lying to her but no sense in getting her or Danielle upset. He and Mitch would talk some sense into the guy. Well... talk wasn't exactly what they had in mind.

Pulling up to Mr. Peterson's house, Jason got out and greeted his elder
ly neighbor.

“Hey Mr. Peterson just waiting for Mitch to come by, mind if he leaves his truck here in your driveway?”

“Not at all son listen you two be careful,” he said as Mitch pulled up and parked in the driveway.

“You ready buddy?”

“Yes, I figured we'd take your truck instead of mine, that asshole won't recognize yours.”

“Let's go.”
  Climbing into the passenger side of Jason's truck, Mitch was careful to conceal the .45 he had in his waistband.

“You boys want me to call the police now?”

“No, no Mr. Peterson, we're going to talk with him first.”

“I don't know what you boys are planning but be careful.”

“Thanks Mr. Peterson.”

It took only seconds for Jason to reach the street behind Danielle's home and spot the

Jetta. “There he is man, let's do this.”

Ja
son pulled his Dodge Ram directly in front of Ethan's beat up Jetta. They caught him off guard when both men got out of the truck and walked over to either window. Banging on the driver’s side window with his knuckles, Mitch motioned for Ethan to roll down the window.

Ethan sheepishly rolled down the window, the stench of fast food and body odor wafted through the cracked window.

“Hey I know you guys,” Ethan tried to act surprised.

“You want to roll down the window some more Ethan?”

“Oh I'm sorry, that's as far as it'll go Mitch sorry,” he said with a childlike smirk.

“Then get out of the car Ethan, we need to have a talk,” said Jason as he stared into the passenger side window.

“No can do, I was just about to go home.”

“Oh yeah? What
are you doing here Ethan?”

“I have a friend in the neighborhood?”

“Yeah? Who?”

“Oh I doubt you know him.”

“Try me, what’s his name?”

“Oh no, you don't know him,” Ethan shook his head.

“Look Ethan I'm gonna cut to the chase here, since you’re too chicken shit to get out of the car, my buddy and I want to let you know that we know it was you who broke into Danielle's place here and stole her things you sick fuck.”

“And that woman that was with Danielle the day you followed them at the mall asshole? That’s m
y girlfriend.” Their words converging onto Ethan in a heap.

See what we need you to do Ethan is this, turn on your car, drive yourself the fuck home, take a fucking bath you stinking piece of shit and stop harassing and stalking Danielle and Shayla.”

“You hear me Ethan?”

“Do you understand that Ethan?”

“Mitch, I don't know what you’re talking about.”

“You know, for a big guy you’re not too smart are you Ethan?” Mitch taunted.

Gripping the door handle Ethan began to shiver with rage. Mitch and Jason mistook it as fear.

“You see what you’re feeling right now Ethan is fear, and you should be scared because if you don’t leave those two ladies alone, we're coming back for you Ethan except the next time, you won't see or hear us coming, you'll just disappear.”

As Mitch brandished his .45, he stared at Ethan so intently, that Ethan did not question anything that he was saying.

“Nod if you understand Ethan.”

Ethan nodding, rolled up his window, started his car and drove away.

“You think we scared him enough?”
  Jason asked Mitch.

“I don't know buddy, but I'll tell you one thing, there was a moment there that I thought about pulling the trigger and blowing his fucking head off.”

Ethan couldn’t help but try and conceal his anger. Had Danielle known that they would come after him? How dare they threaten me like that! Danielle would have never allowed him to threaten me like that.
Oh they'll pay; they'll pay dearly,
thought Ethan as he slowly drove home.

Once Jason and Mitch got back to his truck, the two said goodbye, wav
ed to Mr. Peterson who was looking out the window and drove home.

“Where did you go?” asked Shayla as Jason walked in the door.

“Oh, just had a client with a clogged pipe.”

“Oh, you had me worried; I thought
maybe you were sneaking out to go see another woman.” Shayla said, not sure of her own words.

“Shayla, are you serious? Jason asked surprised by her response.

“Shay, you’re the only girl for me, I love you. Now stop being silly,” he said holding her close and kissing her, “Now what’s say we skip dinner and go upstairs for desert? I want you now Shay.”

“Well, who am I to argue with that?” She giggled with delight.

Jason made love to Shay causing her to forget any and all notions of him cheating on her.

Aft
er taking a hot shower, Danielle headed back downstairs. She had changed into a pair of Mitch's sweat pants and a tank that she had worn underneath her tee. Not having any other makeup besides her lip gloss, she used some on her cheeks and her lips. She untangled her curls as best she could and let her hair fall naturally down her back.
Mitch should be back any minute
, she thought as she wondered if she should attempt to start the fire herself.
No, I better leave that to Mitch, I don’t want to start a fire by starting a fire
, she smiled to herself.  She opted to look for some wine instead. As she headed towards the kitchen she saw the reflection of headlights bounce off the walls. He's back. Good, I was getting nervous.

“Hey babe,” Mitch said as he entered t
he house with grocery bags.

“Hi, how was the market?”

“It was fine, just fine.”

“Don't you look sexy,” Mitch looked at her with passion in his eyes.

“I hope you don’t mind, I took a shower and wanted to get out of those clothes and put something more comfortable on.”

“Mind? Absolutely not Danielle, everything I have is yours.”

“Thank you Mitch,” she said, smiling at him.

 
 He pulled her close to him and with smoldering eyes, whispered, “I want you Danielle.” Not waiting for a response, he began kissing her so passionately that she felt the heat of his kisses go right between her legs. She wanted him so badly, she ached.

Hastily moving over to the oversized sofa, he gently laid her down onto it. Her head was spinning from total ecstasy as he moved his hot,
wet mouth away from her lips down her neck. His hands slid under her tank to reach her already erect nipples. She let out a soft moan as he lifted her tank up over her head careful not to disturb her wound. She willingly thrust her chest towards his awaiting mouth; she wanted to feel his tongue caress her nipples just as his fingers did moments before.

She felt the surging ache between her legs once again and opened them so that he could lay himself fully between her as he sucked and licked her breasts.

“You are so beautiful Danielle.”

She grabbed the back of his head and pulled him up to her open mouth.
 Feeling the yearn in each kiss; he let his fingers slide inside the sweatpants she was wearing. She raised her hips to meet his fingers, and as he slid his fingers between her legs and found her wet spot, she let out a pleasurable moan. He caressed her hungrily making her even more welcoming to him. He paused a moment before he slid his fingers into her completely.

Danielle kissed him with such demand now as
he was about to bring her to brink of pure ecstasy. His fingers felt so good inside of her. And using his thumb to stimulate her even more, his rhythm increased and so did her breathing until she could no longer hold it. She wrapped her arms around his neck and as she kissed him, felt the release of the climax all over her body.
