Confessions of a Naughty Night Nurse Read online

  I muttered an agreement and we dressed our silent patient in his smart, new pyjamas. Despite the quiet, reverent task I couldn’t help the wave of panic in my guts. Javier had been working in my hospital for nearly two years and I hadn’t once played hide-the-sausage with him. I always presumed there’d be plenty of time for that conquest. Part of me enjoyed the slow burn, the flirty smiles and suggestive banter we indulged in whenever our paths crossed in the dead of night. Another part of me now worried that I’d been wasting time when I could have been getting down and dirty, sweaty and naked, with my very own Italian stallion.

  There was only one thing for it. I would have to up my game, become the hunter rather than the hunted.

  Javier had no idea what was about to hit him, literally.

  Mr Parslow was now fresh and dressed. Annie and I quickly tidied the room, did an inventory of his meagre belongings – splayed toothbrush, red comb strung with silver hairs, a half packet of toffees and several items of nightwear in various states of cleanliness – then we wrapped him in a paper-thin shroud and covered him with a clean sheet.

  Annie left and I dropped the last of the damp towels into a linen skip.

  A sudden bang on the window caught my attention. I turned and stared into the bleak darkness. The blind hadn’t been drawn over the slightly open pane and a feathery flash of silver-white knocked up against the glass. Once, twice, three times.

  Curious, I stepped closer, trying to discern what was buffeting the rain-splattered window with firm insistence.

  A gasp of surprise caught in my throat. It was a dove, out at night, in a gale.

  ‘What on earth are you doing?’ I bent and peered closer.

  A black, beady eye’s attention settled on mine for the briefest of moments, then the dove took off, into the night, its wings ethereal and ghost-like, flapping against the wind.

  I glanced at the mound on the bed and fought a prickle of unease tickling the back of my neck. Odd things happened in a hospital, but a dove, at night; that had been a first.

  Quickly I shut the window. Mr Parslow’s soul had had ample time to depart. All that remained was his shell, so there was no need to have an escape route for his spirit to start its journey to Heaven; and I was pretty certain it would be Heaven, what with having a white dove coming to collect him on a storm-wild night.

  I didn’t mention the dove to Annie or Tinkard. I just called for a porter to help me transfer to Rose Cottage and tugged on my coat. I checked my iPhone again. Another message from Tom.

  You coming?

  I typed back quickly.

  Yes, so will you soon!

  The porter appeared. He was new, a young guy, wide and stocky with hair so short you could see his scalp through it. He had the word love tattooed over the knuckles on his right hand.

  ‘You got one for Rose Cottage,’ he grunted, tugging the closed, coffin-style trolley along behind him.

  ‘Yes, sideward six.’

  Luckily Mr Parslow’s skinny body was light, and within a few minutes we were heading out of the ward with him safely ensconced in the metal trolley.

  ‘Hey, Sharon,’ Tinkard called. ‘You may as well go for your break after you’ve done that, it’s just gone midnight.’

  ‘Right you are.’

  The ward door shut with a heavy click and I put some muscle into pushing the trolley along the deserted corridor. As the pace picked up I stared at the lumpy back of the porter’s head and wondered if he was the one who’d found Javier and Iceberg.

  If only I could see into his mind.

  I pondered on whether I should question him. Just come straight out and ask if he’d seen the hottest medical senior house officer since Pompeii’s hospital had got showered in ash, shagging the Wicked Witch of the West where the sun doesn’t shine.

  I thought better of it. My asking alone could become gossip, and I was keen to avoid gossip that included myself. There were too many skeletons in my cupboard, and, for that matter, in clinical rooms, sluices, linen rooms, and in that handy, unused office at the back of the pharmacy. No, I would keep quiet and do my own investigating.

  Stepping out into the night, I was whipped in the face by my hair, the band holding it in a low ponytail no match for the ferocity of the gale. I hunched my shoulders and stooped, trying to shelter my face from the needle-points of rain blasting my cheeks. The sound of the torrent of drips hitting the metal trolley was almost as loud as the wind creaking at the row of oaks leading to Rose Cottage. Their boughs strained and moaned, their leaves hissing in great waves of noise.

  The porter sped up behind the back of the canteen and put considerable energy into pulling. By the time we went past the incinerator and turned the final corner, I found myself jogging along the uneven path.

  Luckily Tom was waiting with the door to Rose Cottage held open.

  We rushed in, the trolley banging over the door-bar and a scurry of leaves whirling around our feet.

  ‘Fucking hell,’ the porter said. ‘It’s cold enough to freeze the balls off a brass monkey out there.’

  Tom shut the door, winked at me, then took hold of my end of the trolley and wheeled it into the bay of body drawers. I trailed along behind, tucking my wind-wild hair back into its ponytail.

  ‘Yeah, good job the VIPs in here don’t care about shitty weather,’ Tom said, stopping at twenty-six C and then opening the trolley’s lid to reveal Mr Parslow’s covered body.

  ‘Bloody hate this part of the job, me,’ the porter said, staring at the shroud-covered lump and shuddering. ‘Don’t think I’ll ever get used to it.’

  ‘You go if you want,’ I said, ‘I’ll help here.’

  He widened his eyes and took a step backwards. ‘Really?’

  ‘Sure, I’ve done it a million times. Doesn’t bother me.’

  ‘Bloody hell, thanks …’ He nibbled on his bottom lip and scanned my coat, as though searching for my name badge.

  ‘Sharon,’ I said. ‘Go, we’ve got this covered and I bet you’ve lots to do.’

  ‘Yeah, I have actually.’ He yanked his sleeves over his hands and strode back to the door.

  Tom followed and I heard him lock it shut, as was standard procedure at Rose Cottage. The NHS couldn’t risk body snatching, that’s why Tom was employed as night security here.

  ‘Poor sod,’ Tom said, wandering back in. ‘Looked white as a sheet, didn’t he?’

  ‘They all do to start with.’

  Tom pulled open the drawer and together we slid Mr Parslow onto the metal; his body, although light, was a dense weight. Tom then pushed the drawer shut and closed the door with a resounding slam.

  He wrote Mr Parslow’s name on a piece of card and slipped it into a slot beneath.

  ‘So how long have you got?’ he asked, a naughty smile tugging his lips and his smoky-blue eyes twinkling.

  I raised my eyebrows. ‘No time at all. Change of plan, I have to get straight back, sorry.’

  ‘Ah, Sharon,’ he said, frowning. ‘Why do you go and tease me like that? You know how much I look forward to your visits. They’re the only thing that keeps me going in this lifeless place.’

  ‘Sorry.’ I glanced down his body. Through his uniform – dark-navy trousers and shirt – Tom’s well-defined muscles could be made out, as could a fantastically long wedge of flesh behind his fly.

  My pussy clenched as I remembered last week when I’d paid him a visit. He’d bent me over the desk and rammed himself into me for nearly an hour. It had been so damn hard to walk back onto the orthopaedic ward I’d actually considered nicking a pair of crutches.

  I hitched in a breath, knowing I wouldn’t be able to keep up my pretence for more than another few seconds. Tom’s big dick and his skilful use of it was too damn irresistible. ‘The ward is crazy busy.’

  He reached for me but I stepped away. ‘Just a kiss and a quick grope then, to keep me going.’

  Quickly I moved even further away, towards the autopsy room. ‘Ha, ha,’ I said gleefully. ‘Just
kidding, I’m on my break now.’

  He flattened his lips into a tight line, as if holding back a broad smile, though at the same time narrowing his eyes as though furious with me. ‘You little minx,’ he said. ‘You’ll pay for that.’

  ‘Only if you can catch me.’ I darted into the autopsy room, dark except for a couple of low lights over a set of huge scales. The air was cool and laced with disinfectant.

  I glanced around. There was a big, steel surgical table in the centre, a row of cupboards, several filing cabinets and a desk holding an ancient computer monitor.

  ‘Sharon,’ Tom called, the door shutting behind him with a soft whoosh. ‘You can’t escape.’

  ‘No, please, no,’ I said with a giggle and ran towards the far side of the room.

  He chased but I dodged at the last minute, went to run for the door. He cut me off and I swivelled, found myself barging into the bolted-down table in the middle.

  I gasped as the air flew from my lungs, but recovered quickly and, with my hands flat on the cool surface, scooted to the end.

  Tom was facing me now, his face strewn with shadows, but I could see the thrill of the chase had flushed his cheeks and caused him to pant.

  ‘Come here,’ he said, edging closer.

  ‘No.’ I moved away from him in a circle around the table.

  But it was futile; he was tall, fast and strong. Suddenly I was grabbed and tugged to the end, my body pulled up against his.

  He pressed his lips down hard on mine and instantly the game was over. Now it was all about carnal satisfaction. With Tom, I was always guaranteed a spectacular orgasm and I couldn’t wait to start riding towards it.

  ‘Ah, yeah, baby, I’ve got you,’ he said, shoving my coat off and flicking it out of the way. ‘You gonna take it good again? Like you did last week?’

  ‘Yes,’ I panted, tearing at the buttons on his shirt. ‘Yes, that was so hot, I could hardly bloody walk the next day.’

  He chuckled, low, deep and sexy, then kissed me again, the stubble on his chin scraping my skin and his breaths blowing hot and hard on my cheek.

  He had my uniform up around my waist now and was forcing me to lie back on the ice-cold table. He stepped between my legs and leaned over me, pressing his groin into the gusset of my knickers.

  ‘Really, on here?’ I said, slotting my fingers into his hair and drawing my knees up so they pressed either side of his hips. ‘Where they chop up dead people? Isn’t that a bit freaky?’

  ‘The French for orgasm is petite mort so it’s kind of fitting.’ He was fiddling with the elastic of my underwear, at the juncture of my thighs.

  ‘Yeah, I suppose, but, oh –’ My words were cut off and turned into a delighted moan. He’d plunged two fingers high up inside me and found my clit with his thumb.

  ‘Oh, you’re such a dirty nurse,’ he murmured, kissing and licking over my cheek. ‘I bet you’ve been getting wetter and wetter ever since that poor old sod croaked, haven’t you?’

  ‘I –’ Words wouldn’t come. My brain could only concentrate on his touch.

  He pulled out a little, shoved back in and set up a steady rhythm. Small squelching noises echoed around the room, mixing with my panting breaths and the sound of my pulse raging in my ears.

  ‘I love it when you get so wet for me,’ he said, gripping the back of my neck with his free hand and nibbling the side of my neck. ‘I’m going to really miss your cream, Sharon.’

  ‘Ah, yes, Tom, please, I want you in me.’

  His hand was good, but a hand was a hand. Tom’s equipment was sensational, the sort of specimen that should be pickled in a jar when he died and saved in a museum as a perfect example of the human penis.

  ‘Coming right up, baby,’ he said, withdrawing and fumbling with his flies.

  I shoved at my knickers, gasped briefly at the chill on my buttocks, then kicked the material away. I tried not to think of the bodies that had lain lifeless where I was about to be screwed senseless. Perhaps it would re-balance the karma for this table – if furniture held karma, that is.

  Tom was rolling a condom on with astonishing efficiency. ‘You’re the only one that ever takes all of me,’ he said, looking me in the eye. ‘And it feels amazing.’

  ‘Tell me about it.’ I reached for him and kissed him hungrily as he pressed me back onto the hardness of the metal. He tasted of coffee, chocolate and perhaps a hint of tobacco. He tasted of Tom, which to me meant sex and pleasure and orgasms of the super-intense variety.

  He was nudging into me. I locked my ankles in the small of his back and gripped the sleeves of his shirt. This part always required a good amount of concentration on my behalf if it was to be erotic pain and not ow-that-hurts pain.

  ‘Yeah, that’s it,’ he said into my mouth and gaining the first inch of entry.

  I held my breath, waiting for more, desperate for more, all of it, all of him.

  ‘Damn, you feel so hot,’ he said, pressing his chin against my temple.

  His stubble would leave a telltale red rash, but I didn’t care, to hell with any consequences. Right now I just wanted more of him inside me.

  I rocked my hips up to meet him and he pushed in – much faster than usual.

  ‘Oh, yes,’ I cried out as red flashes filled my vision. ‘So good.’

  ‘Only good?’ He stilled.

  ‘Fantastic, and you know it.’ I half-heartedly thumped his arm. ‘Just give it to me.’

  He hesitated for a second, then shunted in completely.

  I cried out, so did he.

  The brutal entry and the swirling pleasure-pain had my entire body tensing.

  ‘Ah, yeah,’ he groaned, lifting his head and staring at the wall behind me. ‘Fuck, yeah.’

  I felt like I would burst. That at any moment the tip of his cock would come right out of my throat. How was it possible for my little body to take such a monster? I didn’t know, but it did, and it felt bloody incredible.

  Tom began to move. Keeping himself lodged high, he churned his hips in a circular movement, catching my clit just right.

  Groaning, I arched my back, lifted off the table and clung to him. Already the first blissful sparks of orgasm were there. It wouldn’t take long.

  ‘Ah, yeah, this isn’t going to be a marathon session like last week,’ he said. ‘You’ve got me too damn hot for you. I’m near already.’

  ‘Me too.’ I smoothed my hands over his shoulders. ‘Me too.’

  He pulled halfway out, sliding easily, then rode back in. We both grunted and I harnessed the growing pressure.

  ‘Yeah,’ he said, repeating the process. ‘Oh, yeah.’

  ‘Faster, harder,’ I said, catching his fleshy earlobe in my mouth and sucking.

  ‘Your wish is my command.’

  Suddenly our mating cranked up a notch. If it had been desperate before, now it was frantic, wild and utterly animalistic. Breathing no longer mattered, nor did the rest of the universe. Tom inside me and the explosion about to detonate was all that existed.

  ‘Ah, I’m coming,’ I shouted, biting down on his earlobe.

  ‘Fuck, fuck, fuck,’ he groaned, shifting his head but not escaping my teeth.

  He was rod-hard, as hard as he ever got. And I was being impaled; he was ramming me down as much as he was forging into me.

  It was there. I was spinning through ecstasy, my body not my own for a few sweeter-than-sweet seconds, but belonging to a glorious state of heavenly pleasure.

  And then came the best bit, my pussy contracting and spasming around Tom’s cock. My internal muscles rejoicing at the incredible length and girth they had to grip and shudder against.

  Tom was coming too, at the perfect moment. He was groaning and moaning like a dying man. I released his ear, found his mouth and kissed him. He kissed back, hungrily.

  ‘Oh, yeah, that was so good,’ he said, breathless and finally slowing his thrusting hips.

  ‘Tell me about it.’ I was trembling, my flesh prickly and sweat-coated.


  ‘You’re incredible,’ he said.

  ‘Kind of you to say so.’ I brushed his hair back from his face where it was hanging like dark fingers around his forehead. ‘How are the wedding plans going?’

  ‘Not bad, Cheryl is stressed but her mum’s helping her.’

  ‘It must be a nightmare planning such a big event for so many people.’

  ‘Yeah, well, it’s what she wants.’

  He touched his nose to mine, rubbed it in an Eskimo kiss. ‘Are you sure we can’t still do this once I’ve tied the knot?’

  ‘We’ve had this conversation before.’ I stroked his earlobe – it was wet and slightly swollen from my exuberant kisses and bites.

  ‘I know, but bloody hell, Sharon, we’re so damn good together.’ As if to prove the point he ground into me, extracting another delicious tremor. I couldn’t hold in a satisfied groan.

  ‘I have some morals, you know,’ I said when I’d recovered, ‘and screwing married men is definitely on my list of no-no’s.’

  ‘But how is this different? I’m engaged to be married right now.’

  ‘You haven’t promised to forsake all others yet, though, have you?’

  ‘No, I suppose not.’ He kissed me gently. ‘I will miss this, though. You. Us.’

  ‘Me too. But Cheryl makes you happy and will do for the rest of your life.’

  ‘Yep, she’s great.’ He pulled out and straightened.

  I became aware of the cold, unyielding surface I was lying on and the dampness between my legs.

  ‘I’ve got cheese sandwiches and a pork pie in my tuck box if you want to share,’ he said, tugging off the condom and slipping his still semi-erect cock away.

  ‘Sounds great.’ I jumped off the slab of metal, pulled on my knickers and straightened my uniform.

  I would miss my time with Tom and his talented dick, but that was just the way it was. Cheryl would have to learn to cope with him and I’d have to find myself another well-hung pastime.

  Perhaps an Italian one was in order.

  The plastic surgery department was set slightly apart from the general wards. It had its own gardens, a small canteen and several overnight rooms for visitors as it was a regional centre.
