“Are you disappointed in me?”
Disappointed? “What?! No! Why would you say that?”
“Because you call me your angel and now you know that there is a depraved part of me that likes to be called names during sex.”
“Oh Scarlet.” I sit up straight, bringing my hand up to cup her cheek, I look deep into her eyes when I speak the next words. “There is nothing you could say or do that would make me stop loving you or think badly of you in any way. I don’t care what you like in bed as long as you share it with me.”
Relief washes over her features before excitement takes hold of her. “Ren, do you realize what just happened? You remembered what you did as River. That’s a great step forward.”
“It is,” I agree, wishing I could access those memories as I please. Especially the explicit once. “What time is it?”
Scarlet checks her phone on the nightstand. “Seven in the morning.”
“I don’t think I can go back to sleep now. I’m going to head in the shower.”
“I’ll join you!” Scarlet gets up from the bed eagerly heading straight for the attached bathroom. I follow her close behind, watching her remove the shirt and panties she is wearing until she is completely bare to me.
My cock roars to life, even though I came inside her mouth just a few hours ago, I’m ready to devour her all over again. I peel my shorts off and turn on the hot water in my shower. Not waiting till it gets warm, I step under the cold spray to cool off. The icy water hits my heated skin and my dick immediately deflates.
“I don’t know how you stand cold showers, I’d die,” Scarlet says, rubbing her hands over her arms to warm up.
“You get used to it.” I grin at her. “It’s getting warm now, you can come in without freezing to death.”
“Thank god!” Scarlet slips under the shower, her silky skin brushing against mine in the process. I stifle a moan. I never get over the effect this woman has on me. One touch is all it takes for me to want her all over again.
She starts to wash her hair and I get a soapy washcloth and start to wash the rest of her body. When I’m done with her, we switch. Now she is washing me and I thoroughly enjoy every second of it.
“If I didn’t have an appointment with Dr. Stone I would fuck you against this wall right now.”
“Maybe we need another shower later then,” Scarlet teases.
“Not maybe, definitely.” I give her a little slap on the ass, making her squeal in surprise before she breaks out giggling, a sound that warms my chest.
Once we’re both clean from top to bottom, we get out of the shower and dry off. I wrap Scarlet in a white fluffy towel, loving the way she lets me take car of her. After we’re dry, I get dressed, while Scarlet blow dries her hair in the bathroom.
Again, a sense of normality hits me. This is my life now, I realize. I have everything I ever wanted. Scarlet and my family by my side, and Rebecca dead. I just wish I could let New Haven go. I know I have to. It’s the only way I can keep the rest.
I check the time on the clock next to my bed. “The doctor will be here any minute now,” I yell into the bathroom.
Scarlet rushes out to get dressed and I can’t help watching every move she makes. No matter what she does she looks beautiful and irresistible. She puts her uncombed hair into a messy bun and slips her sneakers on her feet.
“Ready,” she announces.
Together we walk downstairs where Dr. Stone is already ringing the doorbell. “Perfect timing,” I point out.
Scarlet rushes to the door, to let the Doctor in. “Hello Scarlet. Hell Ren?” She says my name as a question.
“Yes, it’s me today,” I confirm, making her smile and nod. I can’t help but wonder if she would have the same expression for River. Shaking the thought away, I walk the Doctor and Scarlet over to the sitting area we have been conducting our sessions for the last few times. Dr. Stone sits down on a single chair, getting out her notebook and pencil while Scar and I take one of the couches.
Most times it is just Dr. Stone and I, but sometimes Scarlet likes to sit in which we all agree is not a bad thing. She needs to know everything I know since she has to deal with me.
“How have you been, Ren?”
“Great, I had a dream today… but it really was a memory, River’s memory, Scarlet confirmed.”
“Oh that’s wonderful, Ren. That’s exactly what we have been working towards. You and River need to mentally connect so you can live in harmony. What was the memory about?”
