Miss Jane's Undoing
to get a word in edgewise.  Having decided to declare himself once more, he was anxious himself, clearing his throat over and over and adjusting his cravat.  These small motions made him feel more settled, helping him build up his courage to speak his mind.  Just when he was about to proclaim his love for her again, Jane took the conversation in a different direction.
    “Thank goodness it is not so warm anymore,” she said.  Then, as though struck by the memory of their last warm day together, she blushed.
    “Yes, a few more of those days might have proven to be our undoing,” replied Tommy, distracted by the loveliness of her blush, especially as it spread down towards her breasts, disappearing in the lace that only partially covered her creamy skin.
      “It was quite wonderful to go to our stream again,” she declared.  I don’t know why I hadn’t been there in so long.  It is such a delightful spot.”
    Tommy didn’t immediately rise to the bait.  “It’s not surprising,” he said, “that you didn’t go there after I left for Oxford.  It is hardly the kind of thing a grown young woman does, given her plentiful social appointments.  I’m sure you had far more important things to do, like attending dinner parties and balls.”
    “However, the simple pleasures of nature are not above me,” said Jane.  “If Miss Fanny Price, one of my favorite romantic heroines, takes much pleasure in the beauties of nature, then surely I should follow her example.”  So saying, she turned away and started making her way towards the stream.  Tommy hesitated for a second and then followed her.  Laughing, she ran through the trees, at times even disappearing from his sight altogether.  She made it very difficult for him to restrain himself.  It had taken everything he had not to make love to her as completely as he had wanted to the last time.  The sight of her naked body trembling as he ran his wet hands over her made him want to dispense with his clothing in a trice and enter her immediately.  It was an instinctive desire that made him want to stake his claim, and mark this woman as being his.
    Having lost sight of her, Tommy came to the stream to find that she was nowhere in sight.  He looked around and saw her dress lying on the grass, along with her shoes and bonnet.  And then, he saw her emerging from the stream, wearing nothing but a chemise that clung to her wet body, showing more than it covered.  Tommy was instantly hard.  However, he was determined to talk to her about his feelings before he indulged in any more lovemaking.  It wasn’t right to continue to keep her in suspense about his intentions, unless she had already assumed that he still loved her and intended to marry her.  He didn’t know what was going on in her head and so, he just waited there until she came out of the water and stood, dripping, in front of him.  Only then did he reach out and touch her smooth shoulder, glistening in the dappled sunlight.  Jane shivered a little as he drew her closer and, with no regard for his immaculate clothing, kissed her slowly, lingeringly, using his tongue to wipe away the drops of moisture that clung to her skin.
    At the same time, his hands roamed across her body, from her breasts to her hips, caressing her curves but in a teasing manner.  She stood on her toes, pushing her breasts out further, insinuating her derriere into his hands.  If Tommy hadn’t known better, he would have assumed that she was an experienced woman who knew exactly what to do to turn him on.  The temptation to have her right there was great, and she seemed to be ready.  Yet, Tommy held back, fighting the urgency of his passion, giving her less than her body demanded.  Not to be satisfied with such treatment, Jane twined her arms around him, touching him in the same way that he was touching her.  She pulled off his coat and then his waistcoat, leaving him in his shirtsleeves.  Her hands moved lower, to touch
