Page 37 of Love, Restricted
I looked around, but there were so many people around, it was hard to spot Kairo.
“Somewhere around here. I do know he’s supposed to be running one of the games at some point.”
We had volunteers, but Kairo and I agreed that we would work two of the activities. My job was to run the water gun race game because it had always been one of my favorites. I wasn’t sure if Kairo decided on the dunk tank or ring toss game.
“I’m sure I’ll run into him at some point.”
“I’m sure you will. I’m surprised you are even here.”
Elias worked a lot and wasn’t big on being around a lot of people, so to see him at this event shocked me.
“Only because I had to come lay eyes on you and talk to Kairo.”
“About what?” I crossed my arms over my chest.
Multiple women walked past, gawking at Elias. They didn’t know the relationship between us, but that didn’t stop them from ogling him. Some even went as far as licking their lips and winking at him.
At damn near seven feet and swollen with muscles, it was hard for women not to look. Kairo wasn’t a little guy, but Elias was huge as hell. That was one of the reasons why I was glad that he never got hold of Brian because he would have really hurt him.
“Don’t worry about that.” He hugged me from the side and kissed the top of my head. “I’m going to walk around for a little while. If I don’t see you again, let me know when you make it home.”
“Will do.”
Elias walked away, and I walked over to the game I was stationed at. There was a teenage girl manning it, but she was happy to go find her friends. There were a few teenagers floating to specifically relieve people for their breaks.
Kairo emphasized how important it was for me to take advantage of them to take breaks, but I hadn’t.
He checked to make sure I ate three meals a day, every day. We’d been spending almost every day, all day together. I still hadn’t found anything wrong with him, and sometimes that made me nervous. I wasn’t sure if he was pretending or not. Sex with him had been even better since the first time. He even made do on his promise and fucked me from the back with my hands handcuffed behind me. Things got freaky that night, and I loved every bit of it. I liked when Kairo took charge and gave me directions. Brian thought he was being dominant, but all it did was turn me off.
I’d met a lot of people throughout the day, including Kairo’s siblings. They both were very nice to me, and the looks they gave me made me think they knew about the secret Kairo and I shared. Neither of them said anything, so I wasn’t sure.
I spent the better part of my day running the game and talking to people who lived in the town. I’d come across couples that had lived there since the early forties. I heard stories about different things and places, some that didn’t exist anymore. I talked to families who said they really enjoyed the event, and they wondered if I did private events. I never thought about it, and I didn’t plan on it.
The turnout was better than I expected. Since it was so warm out, I wore shorts, a shirt, and a baseball cap with sneakers. I was cute and comfortable.
I wanted to take a break because I hadn’t seen Kairo, and I wanted some cotton candy, so I had one of the teens come over to relieve me.
I told her I would be gone for at least an hour. I stopped at the cotton candy station and grabbed some blue and pink cotton candy.
As I walked around, I looked at the different game stations and other stuff Kairo and I put together. Kairo was even able to secure a few music artists to perform.
I had just shoved some of the pink confection in my mouth when I spotted Kairo talking to a woman. It wasn’t illegal for him to talk to another woman, but she was too handsy in my opinion. I couldn’t hear what he said, but whatever it was made her laugh so hard, she tossed her head back. Her hand rubbed over his muscular arms way too many times within the seconds of me spotting them. She clearly didn’t know the definition of personal space, or she had been in his space enough times to feel that comfortable. A burning sensation filled my belly because Kairo didn’t even bother setting a boundary.
I had to remind myself that he wasn’t my man, and he could do what he wanted.
But we established that we didn’t like to share.
My inner thoughts reminded me of the conversation Kairo and I had, so I wasn’t wrong for feeling what I felt.
The old me would have left him alone for good, but I wasn’t the same. He showed me that he was a good dude so far, so I decided I needed to talk to him before I made any conclusions.
For a minute, the scene reminded me of what I went through with Brian. He had a coworker who conveniently liked to touch on him all the time. At first, I thought maybe she was just one of those types of people, but then I found out he used to fuck her in a supply closet. I didn’t want to think Kairo was on some bullshit, so I decided to go the other way before I caused a scene. I turned to walk away, but Kairo’s voice stopped me.
“Mycah.”
I rolled my eyes but forced a smile when I turned around.
“Oh, hey, Kairo.”
