121 His Warmth

“Ok...so...turn around...” I mumbled softly.

Brandon nodded before he turned around. Seeing that he had his back to me, I slowly and hesitantly began undressing starting with my top. The rain had soaked through all of my clothes including my underwear. My bra was soaked and heavy with rainwater. I felt better when I removed all clothing from my upper body. The wind made me shiver but I knew that soon, my body would be dry. Slowly, I stood up from the bench to start removing my pants.

“Are you done?” Brandon asked.

“No, I’m not...” I quickly replied in fear that he would turn around.

“You don’t have to sound so panicked. I’ve seen you naked before thousands of times...” Brandon stated matter-of-factly.

“That’s an absolute exaggeration...” I said as I shook my head from side to side.

“What about hundreds of times?” he suggested a correction to his previous statement.

Maybe that wasn’t an exaggerated number, not that I would readily agree to his claim. I pulled off my riding boots, socks and then my riding pants and my panties quickly followed. I stood in the middle of the messy shed in nothing but my skin while I wondered how I ended up here. My eyes went to Brandon, who still had his back dutifully turned towards me. Of all the people that I had to be stuck with...

I’m probably stuck with the most dangerous person of all...

.....

“Are you done?” he asked again.

“Yup...I’m done...” I replied.

“Good,” he replied casually.

I was starting to recover from my shock from my phobia of thunders just now and my legs have stopped shaking enough for me to stand quite firmly on my own two feet again. I bent down slightly to rub my legs, hoping to stimulate my circulation as well as to warm myself up. When I was done, I glanced up and saw to my utter shock that Brandon had turned around and was eying me quizzically.

Naturally, I screamed as I covered my breasts with my hands and turned around. Why is he staring at me like that? I told him to turn around so why did he turn back around like that?!

“What’s the point of me asking you to turn around if you’re just going to turn back around to see me naked?!” I cried out in a mix of shock and anger.

Which part of our agreement didn’t he understand?

“I told you that I’ll turn the other way while you undressed. Now that you’re done, I don’t need to turn the other way anymore, right?” he retorted casually.

As if he was supposed to be in the right for everything all the time...

What kind of logic was that?

I closed my eyes tightly as my mind raced to figure out what I should do. Cursing my own fate, I wondered when the damned rain would stop so that we could head back to the mansion and get some dry clothes on.

Suddenly, I heard footsteps and knew that Brandon was walking towards me. Biting my lower lip in dread, I kept my eyes closed as I felt him coming even closer. It was just Brandon, I told myself over and over but that didn’t ease my sense of panic at all. It wasn’t just Brandon. It’s Brandon...

“You’ll really catch a cold...” he whispered from very close behind me.

Before I could think of a response, I felt something warm wrap around my naked shoulders and then my body was enveloped in warmth. Looking down, I realized that Brandon had wrapped my body in a grey towel. The towel wasn’t big enough cover the entire length of my body, but it did cover my upper body all the way down to my buttocks.

“Umm...thank you...” I murmured softly as I turned my head to face him.

I was shocked to find him so close to me and then I realized that Brandon still had his arms around me. He smiled before he pulled me into a firm hug. The texture of the towel dug slightly into my skin where his strong arms hugged my body to his. The warmth around my body intensified as the warmth of the towel combined with Brandon’s body heat.

“Better?” he asked.

“...Yes,” I admitted.

After sighing softly, my body began relaxing into his embrace as he continued to hold me. The warmth that his body provided felt so safe and my body readily took in all the heat that he was offering. After he held me for a while, my eyelids started feeling heavy and I realized that being in the rain must have made me feel extra tired. Suddenly, I felt very sleeping.

“You should go to sleep. Get some rest,” Brandon said as he let go of me.

I nodded at him after turning around to face him. Brandon grinned at me, and I found myself smiling at him despite the dire situation that we were in. Brandon turned away from me before he turned back and offered me a blanket.

“This is all there is. You should use this and find somewhere to sleep. Maybe sleeping on the hay like some farm girl might suit you,” Brandon advised teasingly.

“Thanks...” I mumbled as I took the banket from his hand.

I turned towards the hay as I resigned myself to my fate of sleeping in the shed like a ‘farm girl’ like Brandon had just mentioned.

“What about you?” I asked.

Just like he was worried about me, I guessed I was worried about him too.

“Don’t worry about me. You should sleep first. I’ll see if I can contact anyone to get us out of here...” he said with a small smile.

I smiled in return before heading towards the hay and spreading the blanket out on top of it to prepare my temporary bed. Brandon was probably saying that to make me feel better but I knew that there was probably no signal where we are right now. The rain probably made certain of that. If his phone had any signal, he would have called someone from the mansion to help get us out of here already.
