The Happiness of Ella Bloom · Part 2 (2/5)
Previous · Next
“You said it’s a combominimum. But you own this? Whoa!”
“Well for now. And it is a condominium, yes.” Colin corrects her.
“It looks like an apartment to me…” Ella thinks a condominium is a hotel suite and doesn’t realize she’s just mixing up words that basically mean ‘apartment’, “What? You don’t like it?”
“I do, but you don’t have to show off like this.” Ella accuses him, and wanders further into the apartment. Letting herself fall flat on the soft couch.
Colin frowns at that. He’s not showing off, but showing her around.
It’s a 2 bedroom kind of deal, with a large open living room and the master bedroom next to it. Both exit onto a spacious balcony that overlooks the Atlantic ocean. Behind the bedroom is the bathroom. This looks a bit dated, but it's big and has a bathtub and a simple shower and a double sink. And next to that is the 2nd bedroom, adjacent to the kitchen. Both the kitchen and 2nd bedroom overlook the lagoon and Cancun behind it. Out the door is the elevator of-course and then another apartment, mirrored, on the other half of the floor.
Unknown to Ella most apartments in the building are empty, or soon will be.
“See? It’s not that fancy.” He jokes, gesturing at the bathroom. “Just an old place that looks nice.”
“I’m sure it was very expensive.” Ella suspects. But she really appreciates the luxurious feel the place has.
“It was, but don’t worry about that.” He says as they finish the tour on the balcony.
“Look down there. Isn’t that nice?” He points at the beach.
They can’t really see it in the dark of the night. But the hint of a white beach looks excellent to her.
"And there? See the little path?" That's the beach access from the building. Looking closer to the building there is a small pool and some bushes and palm trees, a dimly lit path leads towards the beach.
“Oh Colin… It’s perfect, you’re perfect. Thank you so much for, for, for having me.”
She lifts to the very tip of her toes and tries to kiss him. She's too short to reach his lips. He looks down on her with a grin and pulls her up with his arm around her lower back. Ella jumps up and wraps her legs around his waist. He catches her butt and adjusts his other arm to be around her back.
“My pleasure.” He smiles at her.
3 – First night together “Let’s have sex! Now!” She gasps in his ear. “Please please! I’ve wanted it for weeks!”
He doesn’t need to be told twice. He had fantasized about making sweet love to her ever since he saw her on TV, over 4 months ago. Colin carries her to the master bedroom and gently lies her down on the amazingly soft bed. Ella hurriedly undoes her jeans and shimmies them down. Exposing her black underwear.
He pulls off her socks and pants and throws the items aside.
Next he pulls his shirt over his head and kicks off his shoes and jeans. Wearing just his boxers he plunges onto bed next to Ella.
“Are you sure Ella?”
“Call me Girl…Sir.” Ella gasps. Subconsciously slipping into her old role from when she was kidnapped.
“Ok Girl, are you sure?” He asks again, with a smirk.
“Take me Sir. Own me, do what you want.” Ella demands.
Colin frowns for a moment, but plays along and tickles her stomach. They kiss and he slides his hand down into her panties, finding a very wet vagina.
Ella whimpers at his touch as he strokes her wet lips. A shudder comes over Ella and she orgasms with a loud gasp and a sigh a moment later. Kicking her legs, straining her body for a moment.
Taken aback he stops and studies her face. Ella has her eyes closed and bites her lip, quietly moaning into herself.
“Ella?”
“Ella?!” He asks again.
“My name is Girl, Sir. Call me Girl.” Ella idly whispers.
“What are you doing Ella? Are you ok?” Colin worries.
Weirdest 'sex' ever…
He strokes her cheek and Ella whimpers again at his touch. But is otherwise in her own little world. With a sigh Colin rolls on his back and stares at the ceiling. ‘What the fuck?’
Colin grasps his own face covering his eyes and cheeks with both hands. He wonders what’s going on with his lady friend. Did he make a terrible mistake and bagged a freak weirdo? She moves and climbs off the bed. Without looking up he calls for her, “Are you ok?”
“I’m fine.” Comes the simple response.
A moment later he feels another movement when Ella, now fully naked, straddles him. She sits on his upper legs and massages his penis through his boxer shorts. Seconds later he gets hard again and with a final squeeze she stops and pulls the boxers down. He then feels her wetness touch the tip.
Ella scoots forward and lowers herself onto his penis and starts riding him.
He peeks from under his hand at what she’s doing and is stunned by the beauty towering over him. Ella's firm breasts are bouncing up and down, her face is filled with self-absorbed lust.
“Whoa…” He gasps with his mouth agape and lets his arms drop to the side.
She leans her arms on his chest as she humps his dick quicker and quicker. Her breathing becomes more ragged with every second. It then turns into moaning, interrupted by the occasional gasp or sharp breath intake.
Colin watches with fascination how the girl of his dreams rides his crotch like a machine. He doesn't have to do anything. Her eyes blankly stare over his head. Completely ignorant of her surroundings as if he isn't even there.
While he enjoys the sensation, his mind tells him something is completely wrong with what's happening. But he can’t stop his own growing arousal and can’t help enjoying what’s happening to him, uttering short moans every time she comes down.
This goes on for a while until she grinds her crotch in his, making small circles while pinned on his penis. He can’t contain himself and with an elated moan he shoots his load into her.
Seconds after, Ella has her 2nd orgasm and with a deep strained sigh drops forward on his chest. She's breathing heavily and covered in sweat from having exerted herself so hard.
“Ohno…” Ella whispers moments later, as if she had an important realization.
Her head is sideways on his chest and a few tears run down her cheek, mixing with his sweat.
“Ella? Hey, are you ok?” He strokes her hair.
“No, sorry! I’m sorry!” Ella scrambles from the bed and flees into the bathroom, slamming the door shut behind her and sits leaning against it.
“What the hell? Ella!” Colin calls after her.
Ella pulls her knees up to her chin. She vacantly stares ahead.
“What did I just do? What did I do!? Your name is Ella, not Girl. He is not Mike! Get a grip you stupid fuckhead!”
She screams her lungs out into her knees a few times and weeps in anguish, tears streaking her cheeks.
Colin is sitting up on the edge of the bed when he hears her muffled screams followed by her crying and hurries to her aid. The door is blocked, but that doesn't stop him and he walks around and enters through the living room door. He bursts into the bathroom and sees Ella on the floor leaning against the en-suite door. She's softly crying to herself. He sits dumbly next to her and puts his arm around her shoulder.
“Hey, what just happened?” He softly asks. “Where did the happy funny girl go?”
Ella doesn’t respond at first and just quietly weeps into her knees.
“Oh Colin. I’m so stupid… I completely got confused.”
“Not at all!” Colin disagrees, “Come, Let’s go back to bed. Talk to me if you want.”
“I’m sorry. I can’t do this. I can’t.” Ella whines. “I’ll go home in the morning. Sorry to waste your time like this.”
Colin frowns and struggles to stand while lifting her up.
“Don’t be silly… Talk to me. Is it something I did? Too soon? Or what?” He asks her while he carries her to bed.
“Noooooo. You’re too nice. Too perfect. It’s all my fault.” Ella sobs in his shoulder.
Colin puts her in bed and gets them a drink. He knows Ella doesn’t drink alcohol so coca cola it is. But really, he could use a double vodka.
When he comes back, Ella has calmed herself and looks at him. He puts the drinks on the nightstand.
“You hate me for sure?” She calls him out.
“No Ella, but I’m very confused. I thought you wanted to make love. But then you turn into some kind of sex machine and run away.”
“I dooo,” Ella sobs, “I just got confused and thought you’re Mike just now and it’s all screwed up. I’m sorry.”
“Mike? The asshole who kidnapped you?”
Ella nods. “Don’t leave me Colin, please. I’ll be better.”
Her mind is all over the place.
“Ella, hey, listen.” He grabs her chin and makes her look at him. “Look at me… I love you. We’ll figure it out, OK?”
'What a terrible time to confess one's love to another,' he thinks.
Ella looks at him through her tears feeling immensely stupid and asks. "You really mean it?"
Colin pushes her flat on the bed and lies down next to her. “Let’s just calm down for now. We'll figure it all out. OK?” He whispers into her ear.
Ella nods and feels secure in his embrace. “I'm sorry Colin, I love you too. I really do. Don’t hate me.”
It’s just past 4AM when she falls into a fitful sleep. Colin’s head is full of worries but he refuses to give up on her.
If anything he wants to take care of her even more now.
A few hours later Ella wakes up at her usual 6AM, another left-over from her time in captivity, and sits up in bed looking at Colin. Her lovely Colin.
He doesn’t look very happy.
Colin had fallen asleep only an hour ago. He felt sad for Ella, clearly still having trouble with her past.
She pinches his nose and he snorts in his sleep. Ella drinks both glasses of the now flat and lukewarm Cola and twists and turns in bed for an hour. She snoozes away for a while but really can't sleep and plucks on his arm for a bit.
Finally Ella wanders naked to the living room. She considers that she should make breakfast for Colin. Or prepare his outfit. Would he like that? She’s not his servant though. So maybe not?
Instead she sits yawning on the balcony floor and leans her forehead against the glass railing. The sun is about a hand width above the ocean, the beach below her is very pretty. A few people scurry around like ants, a few dogs run around. Her phone beeps and there is a message from her parents asking how she’s doing.
Without thinking she taps on ‘Call’ and pours her heart out to her mother over last night's mishap until her phone runs out of minutes.
Feeling a lot better she looks down at the sea again, but with a smile this time. She decides to show Colin that she’s not crazy.
“People can see you, you know?” Colin says from behind her. He’s leaning against the sliding door frame with an amused smile on his face.
Ella flinches and looks over her shoulder.
“How long have you been there?”
“Just now, how are you feeling? Did you have a good talk?”
“It’s OK…” Ella smiles and reaches for him.
He sits next to her and Ella leans over and kisses him. “I’m sorry for last night. I am fucking retarded stupid.” She whispers.
He looks at her, “You should really stop putting yourself down. Can you try? You’re not a retard, or stupid.”
“Thanks…” She softly says. “Hey, should I make breakfast for you? I always did that for…” She interrupts herself. “Never mind.” She mumbles.
“I would love some breakfast, let’s go see what’s available.” Colin accepts her offer unfazed.
“Come…” He pulls her to her feet.
They make breakfast together. She makes toast with jam and he bakes bacon and a few eggs and when their food is about ready Ella puts on a shirt and they have their first breakfast together on the balcony. They didn’t really talk. Somehow they know exactly what the other is doing or wants.
It's nice and Ella becomes more lively again as Colin tells her about the coming day. His schedule, and what she can do in the meantime.
Colin doesn’t want to leave her alone and really regrets having to go to his meetings. But there is no escaping his work if his deal is to happen.
Down in the lobby he shows her the exit towards the beach. And if she uses the exit on the other side of the lobby she can explore the shopping area that's across the street. In broken Spanish he asks the security guard at the door to extend her every courtesy.
Ella and the guard smile at each other, but she doesn't speak any Spanish.
With a final kiss he gives her a debit card to use and leaves her to it.
4 – Alone in Cancun 'Just 2 4 6 1 and have fun…' He had said.
Ella still thinks he's showing off but at the same time she likes his careless casual attitude. Exactly what she needs from life. No stress or worries. While he goes to his first meeting, Ella wanders around in the La Isla Shopping area and spends a few hours in the dolphin zoo next to it.
She didn’t pay attention to which building they came out of that morning. Not knowing where the apartment is she just aimlessly wanders around. When she finds a beach entrance Ella heads north along the waterline. Ending up quite a distance away from where she started. The beach seems endlessly long.
When it's nearing dinner time, Colin finally messages her asking where she is. She doesn't know, but when she sends a photo of the hotel nearest to her he quickly finds her with a taxi. They spent some quality time walking along the waterline back to their apartment.
"So? How was your day?" He asks.
"Good, I saw dolphins!"
"What? In there?" He points at the ocean.
"No in the shopping place. They have them in an aquarium."
"Oh right." Colin laughs. He remembers now.
"Did you do some shopping? Bought anything nice?" He wants to know next.
"No. Nothing. Just the aquarium ticket, and I bought something to drink."
Colin hmms. Secretly he had hoped she would buy some fashionable clothes. Not considering that Ella might feel awkward using his bankcard or that she might not care for such things after being in captivity for 5 years.
"I like it here…" Ella declares. Aside from a few vendors nobody had talked to her all day.
"It's a nice beach, right?"
Ella nods. "How did your meeting go?"
"Not sure. Well, it went fine really. But we'll know for sure the day after tomorrow when we go sign the contracts." He grins at her.
"Oh ok. That's good? We?"
"Yep, we. You and me…" He winks at her.
"Oh…" Ella smiles inwardly and is flattered that he includes her in his process.
After dinner Colin runs into an associate of his and they're invited to a bar for a few drinks. Ella gets her first real glimpse into his world. She’s introduced to all kinds of businessmen and their partners and they have a fun time.
She tries a colorful cocktail with a piece of pineapple sticking out of the glass and sits chatting with a few of the wifes. Colin has his Vodka and seems to really enjoy himself. Smiling at her every chance he gets.
“So what did you do just now? They’re your friends?” Ella wants to know when they’re in a taxi going back to the apartment.
“In the bar? Basically just meeting people. Making contacts. I know the first guy we met. But the rest are new to me.” He explains.
“It’s probably for nothing, but you never know. And free drinks are fun too. Having you there sure made an impression.” He laughs.
Ella quietly smiles but prefers not to be paraded around.
“That’s not why you brought me, right?”
“No no no, I brought you because I want to include you into my life. I’m not going to hide you in my home. We do things together. Right?”
“Right…” Ella confirms.
That night when they’re about ready for bed Ella disappears under the bedsheets and gives Colin a blowjob he’ll never forget.
“Fuuucking hell, yes!” He moans with his hand loosely on her head as it bops up and down with long strokes.
Not sure if it’s OK to ejaculate in her mouth or on her face or whatever he clumsily cums on his hand and spills it on the floor. Ella laughs at his silly effort and spends the next few minutes cleaning up the mess.
After that they have sex. They make real love this time. Colin had asked her to follow his lead and to just let everything happen and enjoy herself.
She’s on her back looking nervously up at him as he lowers himself onto her. His penis slips into her wanting vagina and he gently loves her for the next hour.
She shudders and squirms at his touch and finds his affection very pleasing.
'Much more so than Mike…' Ella squeezes her eyes shut and forces herself to not make comparisons. Fuck the past!
When he pinches her nipple and sucks on it just as he thrusts into her, her eyes fly open again and she lets out a moan and gasps loudly and her orgasm rolls over her like a freight train.
“Oh my god! Oh god, Coliiiiiiiin!” She calls out as her back arches and her toes curl up painfully from the intense feelings.
She never felt anything like it before.
Colin teases her for a few more minutes but his energy is drained and his tongue sore from his efforts. They lie next to each other catching their breath for a while when Ella drapes herself over his torso and whispers into his ear that she never wants to leave his side again.
“Best sex ever!” She declares with a sigh.
“Damn straight!” He sincerely agrees. He again decides he’s going to marry this woman.
The next day they hang around on the beach. Sitting on towels in the sun, tanning and swimming together. It's a fun day where they learn that they do not have to have a deep meaningful conversation to advance their relationship. Their thoughts and wants reach each other just fine.
Late in the afternoon they buy a few things for dinner and Ella makes a tomato soup and bruschetta with tomato chunks, olives and spices.
Their first home-cooked dinner together.
While they're eating, Ella tries to bring up how maybe he likes it if he controls her more. Being her leader and telling her what to do. But Colin immediately catches on to what she’s trying and shuts her down. Instead insisting they have an equal relationship.
But he also adds that if she likes to make breakfast and things like that she’s of-course welcome to. But only if she wants to do that, and not because it’s expected.
Ella sort of knows what he’s trying to say. But since he’ll be the breadwinner, she thinks that's her part anyway. So his reasoning is a bit lost on her.
Changing the topic, Colin tells her that he has two more meetings the next day and that if she’s up for it she should come along for the last one.
She more-or-less agrees. Not wanting to disappoint him.
During his first meeting the following day, she wanders around another shopping center called Puerto Cancun, this one is much more upscale and shop oriented than the one near their apartment, which is more about souvenir shops and restaurants. He had hinted at the various clothing stores and that she should feel free to get something if she sees something she likes. Anything at all.
When he comes to find her when his morning meeting finishes, she's wearing a stylish new outfit. A tan colored, short sleeve, linen top and a dark brown cotton pair of pants along with brown leather sandals. Her sundress and old shoes are stuffed into a Zara bag.
"Whoohohoooo!" Colin exclaims in surprise. "Looking good Miss. Bloom!"
"You think? I spent all morning on it" Ella says shyly.
She had been browsing at the Zara store, unable to choose. Finally one of the sales girls who had tried to help her got fed up with her indecisiveness and had sort of talked her into getting her current outfit.
Afterwards she had looked at the window display of an expensive looking leatherwear store. The sales guy there had invited her inside to try on boots and sandals and she was talked into buying a pair of their more expensive dark brown sandals that she thought looked nice.
They're the most comfortable pair of footwear she ever had.
Ever since her kidnap, making independent decisions or standing up for herself is not really her forte.
"Yeah, I like it! Very classy. You should wear such clothes more often." He looks lovingly at her.
"I'll pay you back…" She quietly says. She has spent thousands of pesos, which sounds super expensive.
"Hah, no way. It's my gift to you Ella. Did you have fun?"
"It's ok. I also got this." Ella holds up her wrist and shows him a colorful bracelet. It's about an inch wide and made of tiny beads arranged in a Mayan pattern. The only item she bought that she truly chose herself.
He grabs her hand and studies her jewelry. He then presses a kiss on her fingers.
"Milady!" He starts with dramatic flair, "You have excellent taste and style."
She giggles, knowing she didn't choose her outfit at all. But he's right, it looks good on her.
"I also talked to mom. She said I should live more and enjoy myself." Ella sounds more upbeat from his approval. "So I got a big ice-cream, you should try it too! It's really good."
"Heh, sure, I can use something cold. Lead the way!" He encourages her.
He really appreciates her outfit. It looks so much more well dressed than the bargain bin stuff she usually wears. And Zara? Modest… He appreciates that too, even though he doesn't care about the price of what she bought.
Ella shows him around and they enter the ice cream shop for another treat.
"Oh yes, I know this place. They have really good chocolate."
"I know right?" Ella agrees. That's her favorite too.
They share a huge coupe with all 4 of their variants of chocolate ice-cream and the time flies by. Soon enough it's time to head for the 2nd meeting.
“Why do you want me there?” Ella wants to know.
“Don’t be nervous, ok? It won’t be long.”
“But I know nothing of your work.” Ella weakly protests.
“No, I know, but it’s important to me that you’re there. It's a huge moment for me, or us…” He vaguely explains. He wants Ella to share in the moment of his big achievement.
“Hmmm.” Ella had grumbled, she didn't see the point of her being there.
They walk out of the Puerto Cancun building and head to the right to a real estate office down the street where a few people are already waiting for them.
She sits next to Colin at a large table full of documents and brochures. After a bit of talk she witnesses him sign a few agreements and after it’s done they all stand and he proudly hugs her in front of everyone, declaring the whole condo tower they're staying in is his now.
Ella thinks it’s a bit awkward but also recognizes that it’s a big moment for him, even though she doesn’t really get the scope of what he’s doing.
When they’re alone for a moment she wonders if he’s really the owner now.
“Well, on paper, yes. But now the real work starts because to actually pay for it I need to re-sell at least half of the apartments for a good profit.” He laughs.
“How many apartments is that?" Ella hushes.
"In total? 40. And to make a good profit I need to sell 25 or more." He explains.
"And if that doesn’t work?”
“Then I’ve wasted millions of dollars.” He casually informs her. “Don’t worry about it though, these things will sell quickly. Plus, if need be, I can let go of some bitcoin.”
Actually he’ll go bankrupt, he risked almost all of his money on this deal and is unlikely to pay back the loan he got for the majority of the purchase, even with his bitcoin. But he doesn’t want to worry her.
Ella frowns and wonders just how rich he is. Throwing millions around like it’s nothing. But she’s sure he’ll tell her when he wants to.
