The noise runs through me like a gun being shot off in the room and I’m suddenly, instantly, gaspingly awake, looking around for whatever horrible apocalyptic thing is shrieking for us to run, to hide, to flee –
But then, almost in the next instant, I realize that it’s just that fucking alarm clock –
Kent groans beneath me, hardly moving at all, apparently used to it. He opens his eyes, though, which I smack him hard in the chest.
“Ooof,” he says, frowning at me and rubbing his pectoral where I hit him. “What the hell was that for?”
“Turn that thing off!” I shriek, pointing to the alarm clock. “Before I have a heart attack!”
Kent just laughs and rolls over towards the clock, grabbing it off the nightstand and pressing the button on top. It instantly goes silent and Kent drops it on the bed before he turns back to me.
“Told you it would wake the dead.”
“It woke me!” I growl, hitting him again, which just makes him laugh more. “And I almost died from fright!”
“Why is it,” Kent asks, grabbing me by the waist and pulling me back down to the sheets, twisting so that he pins me there with his body on top of mine, “that you can stand up to me without a second thought, but a little alarm clock you say is nearly the death of you?”
“Because,” I growl, wiggling against him, pretending I want to get away when really…well, actually, it feels rather nice to be pinned under Kent’s fit body, getting to feel the weight of him pressing me into the mattress. “I can’t seduce the clock into doing what I want.”
“Is that what you did,” Kent murmurs, dropping his head and kissing the space between my collar bones and then shifting his body to drop another kiss lower, and then another kiss lower. “And here I thought that I was the seducer.”
“What did you have to gain,” I murmur, smiling as I watch him and sinking my fingers deep into his hair. “I got a horse and a knee-shattering orgasm and a whole closet full of clothes. What did you get?”
