Kiera's Christmas

This is an unofficial follow on to 'Stranded in the Cabin'. It is not necessary to read that first but it does help to introduce the characters. As always, I hope you enjoy and please feel free to leave comments and feedback.

"Oh my god Ben, yes, there, keep going." Kiera moaned in her sleep. The dream was so intense she could almost feel him inside her. She could feel how his hard cock was being driven into her, could almost feel his hands on her waist as he took her from behind. She could almost feel him reaching around to her cli....

Kiera woke up suddenly, in her Denver apartment. She kept her eyes tightly closed, willing herself to fall back asleep but it didn't work, it never did.

It had been almost two years since she had been stranded in the cabin with Ben, the most exciting and scariest time of her life. Two years, and she still couldn't help but think and occasionally dream about him.

She opened her eyes looking around her bedroom, finding it empty as always. Stretching her arms out in front of her, she suddenly remembered the source of the dream. The night before she had smoked a joint and then got into bed wearing the Metallica t-shirt she had 'borrowed' from him. It had become her favourite t-shirt, always taking it with her when she was sleeping away from home. When she moved to Denver, it was actually the first thing she packed, and unpacked, rifling through her bag to find it.

The dream was still clear in her mind, but she knew that the images would soon fade to black, but the memories would remain. She remembered everything about her time with him. She often caught herself thinking about what they had got up to in the cabin, especially the hot tub and that last night together when she had filmed them.

Lying in bed, she ran her hands down her body, first cupping her covered breasts then moving them lower to her pussy, finding it already wet with excitement. She rubbed her pussy gently with one hand, covering her fingers in her own juices as she played with her clit.

"Yes." She hissed at her own touch.

She got into a steady rhythm, teasing herself, bringing herself closer and closer to climax. She was thinking about how she rode Ben's cock as he played with her clit, that new sensation had made her orgasm stronger than she ever had before.

She abruptly stopped and reached over to her night stand to retrieve her small bullet vibrator. She returned to her previous position fingering her pussy with one hand and pushing the vibrator against her clit.

"Ooooh yes." She whispered again, imagining her fingers were Ben's cock. It took less than a minute for her to orgasm. She couldn't help but cry out his name as her orgasm broke over her.

She lay staring up at the ceiling, calming her breathing, still thinking of Ben and what he would be up to. It had been almost two years and she still couldn't get him out of her head.

Kiera got out of bed and went straight for a shower. As it was Saturday she had planned to go shopping with her friends Layla and Amy from work but she still had a couple of hours till she had to meet them.

She lazed around the house, doing a bit of tidying but not really feeling in the mood and not putting too much effort in. She had been living in her apartment for over six months now. She had moved down from her home town when she had finished university and get herself a job with the local council. She often wondered if she would see Ben one day, walking in the street.

It had been such a strange thing to get lost and then find someone she had an instant connection with. If Ben hadn't been staying at the cabin, she didn't know what she would have done. On the last morning she left without saying goodbye, leaving him a note on his iPad. She didn't regret it, knowing that it was much better to leave before he woke, but she had missed him more than she had thought. She thought that when she went back to school she would meet someone, but it had never happened, no one lived up to Ben and the way he made her feel.

She had dated a couple of guys afterwards but it never worked out. She knew it was because of her always thinking about Ben but she simply couldn't help it.

Kiera knew that Ben lived in Denver too, but with it being such a big city, she had never bumped into him. She knew where he worked and even his zoom address, having used it to speak to her brother when they were stranded, but she had never contacted him. She couldn't explain why, even to herself. She always put it down to fear, what if he didn't want to speak to her? What if he didn't remember her? She never wanted to consider him being with anyone else.

She was still deep in thought of him and if she would ever see him again when the doorbell rang, shocking her out of her thoughts.

"Hi Kiera, how you doing?" Layla greeted her, hugging her.

"I'm good, how about you two?" Kiera asked as she hugged Amy.

"We're good. Still fancy going shopping?" Layla asked sensing that something wasn't right.

"Yeah sure. Just give me a few minutes and I will be ready." Kiera disappeared off into her bedroom as they sat in the living room.

Kiera quickly brushed her hair and put on a light jacket and went out to join her friends.

Within half an hour, they were at the local mall, wandering idly through the shops.

"We looking for anything in particular?" Kiera asked her friends.

"Not really no. Let's just have a look around and see what we see." Amy told them.

They spent a few hours walking around the different shops. They all bought new outfits, not for any particular reason, Kiera only half aware of what was going on around her. She was still in a daze thinking about Ben. It hadn't been this bad before, sometimes weeks would go by before a thought came into her head about him, but today it was all she could think about. The dream had been so vivid, it felt as if they were together again.

"Let's go get some coffee." Layla suggested. They found the nearest coffee shop and placed their orders, sitting down together around the big round table.

"So what's going on Kiera?" Layla asked gently. "And don't say it's nothing, you haven't been here all day. Is something wrong?"

Amy and Layla had noticed something was up as soon as they went to her apartment that morning. It wasn't like Kiera to be so oblivious to everything and everyone around her.

"It's nothing major, really it isn't. I just had a weird sleep that's all" She told them, only half truthfully.

"Bad dreams?" Layla asked.

"Come on spit it out." Amy added, not unkindly. "I know we haven't known each other for long, but you know you can talk to us."

"Screw it." Kiera said to herself. She had never told anyone about Ben. "Ok I have never told anyone this OK? Just before Christmas two years ago, I was out hiking back home. It was a bit cloudy at the start but soon it started snowing. It got dark quickly and I completely lost the trail and got stuck out there. I was walking around for ages, probably in circles when I found this cabin."

The girls were looking on, listening intently to her story. They were both so captivated by it, neither of them were moving a muscle.

"So I was banging on the door, shouting for help when this guy opens the door. He helped me, took me in, warmed me and fed me. The next morning when we woke up, the snow was so deep we were completely snowed in."

"For how long? How did you get out?" Interrupted Layla.

"Four days."

"OK, so what happened, he didn't attack you or anything did he?" Amy asked jumping to the wrong conclusion.

"No, not at all. He insisted that I take the bed while he slept on the couch. Well at least for the first night. It was an incredible few days. He was perfect, smart, good looking, and he could cook."

"So what happened? Where is he now?" Layla asked.

She told them all about their time together, giving them almost every detail of the days they spent together, ending with how she filmed them having sex and then leaving without saying goodbye the next morning.

"I don't even have a picture of him, but I did keep the Metallica t-shirt he gave me to sleep in though." She finished sadly.

"Is that the one you brought when you slept at mine that time?" Layla asked.

"Yeah it is. Its my favourite shirt to sleep in."

"I always wondered, I didn't think you would be into heavy metal, and you didn't recognise their songs in the car ages ago."

Layla told her.

"I didn't even know they were a heavy metal band. I never looked into it."

They carried on talking, discussing why she had never contacted him, or even tried to find him on social media. Keira told them that she had thought about it as a one weekend thing, and she never expected to still be thinking about him.

"Do you want to try and find him? What does he do? Where does he live?" Amy asked pulling out her phone.

"No I don't. I have to get over it. I just don't think anyone will ever live up to Ben."

"Ben huh? And what does he do?" Amy prompted.

"He was a high school teacher here in Denver. Not sure if he still is though. Please, don't try and find him Amy."

"Are you sure? It wouldn't be too difficult." She asked surprised.

"Yes I am. If I bump into him randomly then fine but I don't want to seem like the psycho who can't let go and contacts him. What if he didn't want to see me again?" She told them voicing the fear that she had never accepted herself.

"We won't, we promise." Layla told her forcefully. "But I think we should do something."

"Like what?" Kiera asked. She always knew that Layla was more gentle than Amy, showing herself to be more caring and subtle.

"We are going out." Amy declared. "Tonight, we will go and have a girls night out, no boys allowed." Her answer to everything.

"Do I get a say in this?" Kiera asked only half serious.

"No. You got a new dress, you are stunning, so let's go and show you off. Show the guys here what they are missing." Amy said excitedly.

Kiera knew she didn't have a choice and reluctantly agreed. They dropped her off at home to get changed and ready for the evening. Kiera was happy she had told someone about what had happened, her brother knew of course, as she had spoken to him while she was snowed in, but she couldn't tell him everything. There are just some things that you don't share with your brother. He had always suspected something had happened between them but she would neither confirm nor deny.

Around 8pm the girls were back at her apartment in their new outfits. They had got a cab over, neither of them wanting to be the designated driver. Kiera had to admit she looked good in her new dress. The weather was starting to turn colder being the middle of November and Kiera knew this would be one of the last opportunities she would have to wear things like this.

Kiera was dressed in a long black dress. It wasn't anything like a ballgown or anything, but it was long enough to show off her amazing figure. She had decided to go braless, the outline of her breasts showing clearly through the fabric. She also wore her hair down, keeping it straight, extenuating her slightly round face.

The bar was as busy as they expected, finding only a few empty tables. The girls took their seats while Amy headed to the bar to get the first round of drinks.

It was nice to spend the time away from her apartment with her friends. Most weekends she stayed in watching a movie and having a glass of wine, generally only going out for friends or family birthdays.

The bar played a good mix of music ranging from classic rock to country. It was a good vibe, giving the girls opportunity to dance, something that Amy took full advantage of, finding a single guy as a partner. While she was away Layla and Kiera talked about everything that was going in their lives. Layla told her about how she missed being in a relationship, having broken up with her boyfriend just before meeting Kiera.

"I sometime miss being in a relationship. I miss the comfort of someone being there, you know?" Layla asked.

"Yeah, me too. I haven't been in a proper relationship since before I was with Ben. Nothing seemed to stick." She replied.

"I'm sorry I didn't mean for you to think about him. I was meant to be taking your mind off it." She said feeling sorry for her friend.

"It's fine, I'm not going to breakdown. I'm getting a bit tired though. Want to get out of here and go back to mine?" Kiera asked.

"Yeah sure, I will go get Amy." She told her.

She quickly disappeared onto the dance floor trying to find her friend. Kiera felt bad about dragging her friend away from the bar but she really was starting to feel tired and wanted to just relax at home.

Layla and Amy came back within a couple of minutes, Amy looking very proud of herself.

"What's got you so happy?" Kiera asked her as she sat next to her.

"Nothing, just got a number." She replied dismissively.

"You sure you don't want us to stay?" Kiera asked not wanting to let her friends down.

"No it's fine, it's late. I was coming to get you soon."

They headed out of the bar hailing down the first cab that they saw. It didn't take long to get to Kiera's apartment, with no traffic on the roads at midnight. As soon as they got in, Kiera opened a bottle of wine and poured them each a glass.

Amy had already put on music at a low volume, deep in conversation with Layla.

"It's not that I'm easy, I just like meeting new people." Amy said defensively.

"I'm kidding. It's great that you are so sure of yourself, I couldn't ever just approach a guy and start dancing with them." Layla said, trying not to laugh at her teasing.

"I couldn't either. I've never had that much confidence." Kiera added.

"Why? It's easy. You just go over, say hi and see where it goes. When was the last date you went on Kiera?" Amy asked.

"About eight months ago before I left home. Wasn't too bad, went for a meal at this really expensive place, but he was boring. Was trying to show off his success." Kiera told them.

"I don't know if you two smoke, but do you want a joint?" Kiera asked them.

"Yes please. I haven't had weed in ages. I didn't know you smoked?" Amy answered quickly.

"It never came up. Layla?" Kiera answered.

"Yeah why not?" She replied.

She retrieved her stash from under the side table, setting it up to roll. Smoking always made her think about Ben as they had smoked together in the cabin. He was a lot better than her at rolling, it took her much longer to perform the task.

As soon as she had finished rolling, they headed onto the balcony. They spoke quietly to not to wake the neighbours, passing the joint between them, discussing if Amy was going to message the guy from the bar.

"His name was Tom. I don't know, I might do. He was nice enough. Maybe he has a friend for you two?" She said seriously.

"Great." Layla said sarcastically. "I was actually thinking about rejoining my old dating site."

"Good idea. Didn't you meet your last boyfriend through that site?"

"Yes I did. It was fourth time lucky."

"Isn't it meant to be third time lucky?" Kiera asked, laughing passing the joint to her.

"In my case it was fourth, the first three were weirdos."

"Come on, let's get in, it's cold." Layla said, disposing of the joint butt.

They sat talking about the merits of online dating, how it was easier to talk to someone online instead of approaching them in a bar or a coffee shop.

"Don't you worry about catfishing though?" Kiera asked.

"I did at first but it's like anything, as long as you are smart and not give away stupid information it's fine. Well nothing like that has ever happened to me. Do you want me to set you up with an account?"

"Amy what do you think?" She asked her friend, turning to see that she had fallen asleep.

"Let's cover her over, leave her to sleep." Layla said trying not to laugh.

They covered her with a blanket, making sure she was covered before grabbing the weed and going to her bedroom.

"I'm going to change if you don't mind?" Kiera asked her as they closed the door behind them.

"Yeah go for it. Got anything I could wear? I'm guessing I can crash in your spare room?" Layla asked, assuming that was the plan.

"Of course. Grab whatever you want. Should be some stuff in that drawer." She told her as she headed to the bathroom.

She returned a few minutes later in Ben's Metallica t-shirt and a pair of shorts. She saw that Layla had gone with something similar, borrowing her bunny top. Layla looked at her wearing the Metallica t-shirt, now knowing where she had got it from. She started to realise how much she had liked Ben.

"I'm rolling another one." Kiera told her.

"Go for it. That's really nice weed. I'm going to set you up a profile OK. Answer all questions honestly."

They went through the standard dating app questions about types and preferences, trying to make her seem more outgoing than she was. It took longer than they had expected, having finished the joint by the time the profile was complete. She had chosen a variety of photos both older and those taken that night, some on her own and some with her friends. They sat looking through her matches, evaluating each choice, she liked more than she thought she would. Maybe she was ready to forget about Ben.

"You loved him didn't you?" Layla asked suddenly, catching Kiera off guard. "Ben I mean."

"How can I love someone I only knew for a few days?" She replied evading the question.

"Come on, answer the question." Layla pushed.

"OK yes I did. I fell in love with him and still am." She finally admitted.

"I thought you were. The way you spoke about him. What made him so special? How did you fall for him so quickly?" She asked, trying not to upset her.

"Honestly I don't know. But at the same time it was everything. He made me feel special. He wanted to take care of me and look after me. Even though it was meant to be a holiday for him he spent the whole time making sure I was OK, that I had everything I needed. We just clicked you know. Also I always had a bit of a fantasy of sleeping with a teacher, and I wasn't disappointed, the sex was amazing."

"I know what you mean about teachers. I always had a crush on my old trigonometry teacher. When you say amazing, how amazing?" Layla asked interested.

"Incredibly amazing." She replied taking a deep drag on the joint. "It was as if he knew exactly how I liked to be touched and more. There was a hot tub there that we took advantage of." She said passing the joint to Layla.

"Didn't you say that you filmed the two of you?" She asked.

"Yeah, on the last night, we had already had sex twice that day and we were watching a show where the girl was tied to the bed. I thought we would give it a try so I blindfolded and tied him up and did whatever I wanted to him. He didn't know that I was filming him. I left it for him to find the next morning after I had left."

"OK wow. Did you not keep a copy of it? Not that I want to watch it, I'm just curious." She said quickly.

"No I didn't. I didn't do it for me, it was a leaving gift for him. I wish I had though, I always wondered how I looked riding him."

Layla looked at her friend in shock, she never would have expected to hear that.

"I'm sorry was that a bit far? Weed always make me too honest." Kiera asked worriedly.

"No it's fine, I asked didn't I? It's actually pretty hot." Layla told her.

"What's been your best sexual experience?" Kiera asked her.

Layla considered for a moment, thinking about her and her ex boyfriend on holiday.

"Probably when me and my ex went to Mexico. It was storming all day, so we decided to stay in bed, only leaving it for room service and the bathroom. The best was when he bent me over the counter and fucked me doggy style while I watched in the mirror. It was so hot I orgasmed almost immediately." Layla told her.
