An entire two hours had passed from the moment Levi stepped out the door. The sun had started to go down back beyond the horizon and the Earth, alongside our dormitories, began to cool. Dusk was steadily approaching. My heart had dropped into my stomach alongside Jesse's barely erect, struggling pickle. He'd achieved a total of nine orgasms in that time which in itself was quite impressive and quite possibly a record if it hadn't been for all the tears. The other's and even I had told him at one point that he should stop and rest, but he had shaken his head, glared at them, and then pile-driven himself forcefully into my pussy. That was the sixth ejaculation. It was... oddly sweet in a weird kind of way. The most recent boys had barely managed three to four each while the short one that had been introduced alongside his fragile pipe of a friend as a close runner up to Jesse at eight.
I was in the middle of suckling Jesse's stun locked baton when Levi returned.
"Ok, Jasmine. I'm ready for you." Levi said.
If it weren't for the tone and cadence of voice he'd said it in, I almost would've mistaken the words as an invitation to take him. As an alternative, I thanked the boys in my room for their services and followed Levi outside.
'Empty.'
The hallways were NEVER empty. There was always someone. Some would drink and hang out in the doorways. Others would be running up and down the halls. Sometimes when it was late and most everyone had gone to bed there would be moments where I thought I might see an empty hall, but there had always been someone. Late night talks, last minute cramming; something.
Yet here we were, before a completely empty hallway. Then my brain did that thing it always does where it reminds me that a completely empty hallway is entirely unobservable to anyone seeking to do so as the very instance they'd observe the hall, they'd do so as a subject and member within it.
There were times I could be rather grateful for my thoughts as they kept me distracted, curious, and constantly aware of the goings on around me. This was not the time for that. The hallway was beginning to feel like a funeral walk. My hand reached out, finding Levi's, and clutched itself around it. His head swiveled toward me as though some mechanism in his arm had been programmed to swing it about that way. His eyes were massive, terribly confused, but boldly brown and brazen even in the midst of all this uncertainty. I think this was the first time I'd ever noticed how beautiful they were. Deep mahogany with tiny extended waves of gold threatening to burst through to his limbal ring. Had his glasses always made him look this smart, or was it just that I could recognize the well of intellect that was buried beneath them now?
"You ok?" he asked softly.
"I, I think so. I don't think I'd have made it this far without you," I answered, "but even if I end up going to hell tonight... I need you to know that I'm both grateful and ashamed to have someone like you around."
"What?" he replied, clearly mistaken on the intent of my words.
"I, I mean that like... I'm so grateful for you now and to have met you, but also that I've never seen you for who you really are is all." I clarified.
"Oh," his understanding caught up to his voice.
"How, how did you know?" I asked the follow up question I'd been dying to ask since Professor Lindt's class this afternoon.
"I'll tell you how tomorrow, deal?" he replied.
I wasn't happy with the answer, but I didn't want to push him if he didn't want to answer it. Instead, I simply nodded and pulled myself closer to him by wrapping my arm around his. I'd let him lead me where we needed to go and if I made it through to tomorrow, I'd get to learn something special about Levi. How could that not be considered a win-win?
We carried on down the walkway, hand in hand, arm by arm, stride by stride to the outer door. We walked down the outdoor stairwell to the ground floor. Our dormitory had transformed into a ghost town. Had an explorer been passing by, they might've even mistaken the entire area completely abandoned or out of commission by the University. The other buildings were buzzing with campus life, people, and drama, but not ours.
We stopped short of the ground floor hallway door when Levi suddenly turned to me again.
"I want you to know that I believe you and I'm not going to see you any other way as a result of this day."
I hadn't even thought about that but hearing him say it now made my tear ducts start to burn and my eyes begin to squint. I hugged him as tight as I could. He stroked the top of my head down against the back of my skull over and over again until my anaconda grip on him loosened.
I sighed, "Speaking of Anacondas." I detached and oriented myself toward the building door.
His last word was a bewildered... "Huh?" at the brisk change of topic.
