to go out with him, or better yet stay
in.
“ Would you like to come in”
she invited, one part hoping he would be a gentleman and take her
out for a fun time, another part hoping he would be unable to
resist trying to finish undressing her.
“ Sure” he said, walking into
her apartment for the first time. “So what would you like to do” he
asked her, his smile melting her will to restrain herself from yet
another fling.
“ I don’t know, I still am
not sure whether to go out or stay in tonight, but either way I’d
love your company” she ventured, wondering if he would react to her
subtle flirtation. He seemed totally at ease in her presence which
was a plus.
“ I understand, I would love
to take you out sometime, but it need not be tonight if you’d
rather stay in. I also would just be glad of your company, it would
be nice to have someone to talk with and enjoy the evening” he
agreed.
Ceri got the strangest feeling that his
intentions were not to get in her pants just now, and that his
offer to stay in and talk was sincere. It was not a feeling she was
accustomed too. Too many men would have taken their conversation to
be an invitation to sex. This gorgeous man seemed to actually care
about more than just getting his penis in her love
tunnel.
“ Let’s stay in. I feel
remiss that we don’t know each other better” she said.
“ If you’d care to share
some, I have a bottle of wine chilling in my room” he
offered.
Three hours later, Ceri had laughed
until her sides hurt at the stories he shared about his life and
work. The wine was making her feel warm inside but she was far from
drunk. She could hardly imagine that in all this time Jensen had
not once tried a bad line, or a good one for that matter, but
instead had engaged her in witty conversation and seemed genuinely
interested in who she was.
The wine gone, and the hour growing
late, Jensen suggested that perhaps he should go home, but he hoped
they could get together again soon, and perhaps go out on the town
together. Ceri had been waiting all evening for him to come on to
her and he had refrained to the point of leaving without even
trying to get her panties down. She was shocked at his gentlemanly
behavior, but at the same time, it made her want him the more. As
he stood to leave, she stood as well and boldly walked up to hug
him. Letting her robe drop from her body she rubbed the outside of
his leg with her own as she hugged him closely, looking into his
eyes lustily.
He was returning her hug gently with
one arm, and his eyes roamed her body. There was the faintest hint
of an erection in his slacks, and Ceri knew she wanted him right
then. “Must you go?” she asked looking sheepishly at his tie as she
gently stroked his chest.
“ Ceri” he whispered softly,
his voice low and deep.
She loosened his tie, but still he made
no move to caress or kiss her.
“ I want you tonight” she
whispered back, “don’t you want me?”
A faint groan, barely audible escaped
his lips. “I must confess I have wanted you since the day you moved
in here. But I don’t want you to remember me as the neighbor that
you took to your bed one night because we both happened to be
alone. Better never to have that which fills my fantasies than to
sully it with such a fleeting act.”
His words moved her and she looked once
again into his eyes. “You have wanted me for that long? Why have
you never said anything?”
“ I was waiting on you to
notice me” he said simply.
Ceri wondered at her own blindness,
here was a man who would forsake her body in favor of a real
relationship, who could make her laugh and want him at the same
time, and he had lived across the hall for two years waiting on her
to see him.
“ I’ve been a fool” she
said.
“ You are anything but a
fool” he said. “You are as brilliant as you are
beautiful”.
She snuggled her body against his,
happy to feel that his bulge had grown significantly as she all but
through
