"You understand that this is a one time deal? No matter how things turn out, good or bad, you aren't going to be entitled to future privileges."
I was sitting in my living room talking to Peter on the phone. Peter and I had been friends for years. We respected each other and had one of those rare friendships that allowed honesty and candor without diminishing the mutual high opinion. We were both professionals, he an attorney and I in sales. Peter was married to a great gal, Jana, who I had known since they meet eight years earlier. His wife and I enjoyed a good friendship and while it wasn't on the same level as what Peter and I shared it was valuable to me.
"Look, are you sure that Jana is alright with this, I don't want her looking daggers at me every time we see each other."
"Well hold on just a second and I'll let her tell you in person," came the unexpected reply.
"Jackie, hi honey. Peter has told me all about the plans you have and I just want you to know that I am excited for you. I really hope it all works out perfectly. Don't worry about me, you have my full support. I can still remember my first time, I envy you."
I didn't know what to say, and before my mind could come up with more the just a grunt she had Peter back on the line.
"Everything ok now?" he asked.
The only way I knew to cope with this situation was to treat it like any other negotiated deal I had made in the past. In my best professional voice I replied, "Yeah it all seems to be taken care of so why don't you email me all the particulars and we can go ahead. I guess I will meet with you Friday night."
We talked a couple of more minutes and then I was left waiting for the promised email. I expected to see it in very short order, but was disappointed and taught my first lesson. When an email arrived a hour later all it said was, "All instructions will be sent Friday afternoon." It was signed "Sir".
The next two days passed with agonizing slowness. I understood why he had not sent the plan to me, my mind spent the intervening time creating dozens of scenarios of its own. Had I seen the true plan I would have spent the time picking it apart, finding fault and emailing back corrections or changes. This didn't allow me that option. This made me wait.
I swore myself to abstinence during the wait. Actually Peter had suggested it but added that since I lived alone it shouldn't be a problem. I don't think he realized how big a problem it became during those few days. I really wanted to give this every chance of being a success and hoped that the heightened state would help me achieve that.
Early Friday afternoon the anticipated message was in my mailbox. Despite the frustrating wait, despite my eagerness to read the instructions the message contained I hesitated to open it. My belly trembled and my hands shook as I stared at the screen.
The message began;
"You know where you are going and why, dress appropriately.
Arrive at the Downtown Hyatt at 6 PM.
Lock your purse in the trunk of your car and use the Valet service.
Ask the desk clerk for my room.
Knock and wait.
Leave your inhibitions and reservations at home.
Remember the things we have discussed and your responsibilities.
Sir"
I read it twice more, then again. I had expected more, expected details, specifics. This left a lot up to me. Needless to say my afternoon at work was shot. Three o'clock was the longest I could wait and making my excuses I headed home.
I started with a long bath, soaking until the water cooled, then shaving my legs and underarms. Finally squeaky clean and hair shampooed I rose from the tub and began fixing my hair and makeup. I poured a drink to calm me, limiting myself to the one. I was nervous but wanted to be fully aware.
I had bought a new lace bra and panty set. Black lace demi-cups and high thigh cuts made the set look very sexy. Thigh high stockings slipped up my legs and felt especially sensuous tonight. At 5'2" they came very high on my legs, reaching almost to the top of my thighs.
I picked out a pair of black heels and slipped into them then grabbed the skirt I had picked for this night. It was a simple pleated flare, black and reaching to just below mid-thigh. The blouse was equally simple, a white nylon button up with short sleeves and a large collar. Tucked into the skirt top it fitted my form nicely. The light nylon did little to hide my black bra and the outline was clearly visible.
I knew better than to wear my usual jewelry, and chose only a pair of hoop earrings.
My timing was perfect, just enough time to make to the hotel and the long awaited meeting.
When I pulled into the valet parking area I stepped out very conscious of the rise of my skirt as I did. I placed my purse in the trunk, deliberately leaving behind my credit cards, cash, and most important tonight, any identification connecting me to my normal life.
I crossed the lobby trying my best not to look around to see if anyone was watching me. I felt as if there were a big sign on my back declaring my intentions and guilt.
The desk clerk was polite, but I detected a condescending tone in his voice as I asked him for the room. He called upstairs and as he talked he cast glances at me as if watching to make sure I didn't take a pen or something off the counter. At last he gave me the room number, then in a sly voice wished me a good night.
It had been embarrassing asking the clerk for the room, but the walk back across the lobby and the ride in the elevator was terrifying. I wasn't sure about this at all and knew that I only had a short ride to the 12th floor to change my mind.
Once the elevator doors opened I stood there trying to gather my nerve and steel myself for the planned events ahead. Just as the door began its slide closed I popped out.
I stood in front of his door, breathing hard, shaking, and raised my hand to knock.
A second later the door opened, good sign, he was waiting for me eagerly I thought.
In my best attempt at bravado I smiled and greeted him, "Hi Pete!"
"When you learn some manners knock again!" he said and closed the door.
"What.....!" I though as I stood there dumbfounded. "Peter, open the door!" I called to him.
"Manners? What the hell does he mean?" my brain stumbled over a solution, then finally a light went on.
I knocked again.
The door opened again.
"Hello Sir." I said not looking directly at him.
"Much better," he told me but did not move from the doorway to allow me inside.
"Much better, but your rudeness has to be corrected even at this early stage of the game. Give me your blouse."
"What!"
The door closed.
"Peter, please let me in," I begged. "Oh shit", I mumbled "did it again." Sir, please let me in I'm sorry, I'll do what you ask."
I saw the light through the peep hole change and knew he was watching me. I knocked again and stood waiting, expecting him to open the door on my promise to be good. It didn't move.
I called again, "Sir, please let me in, I really want this to work."
The light moved in the peep hole again. The door still did not move.
Gradually I realized what I had to do. I slowly unbuttoned my blouse, looking around and nervous that someone would walk up on me. I slipped it off and knocked again. This time the door did open but again he blocked my way.
"You are a willful one aren't you?"
"Please Sir let me in, someone might come any minute," I asked as politely and pleadingly as I could as I held out the blouse to him.
"The skirt."
I stood. I froze. I stammered but could not say anything. His hand reach for the door knob and I rushed out a "Yes, yes, wait, I will."
Standing in the hallway where at any second a room door could open, a tenant could walk out, or a maid could come along I reached to my waist and freed the skirt. I knew that if he closed that door again I would be left there in my bra.
I stepped out of the skirt and held it to him. His lip curved in a small smile of victory as he stood there a little longer. Finally he moved aside and I scooted into the room.
In thigh highs, heels, bra and panties I stood in front of him and he surveyed me. I had never felt so on display. He asked me to turn for him and I did. His eyes measured me and I know he saw the tremors running through my body. I shook with fear, excitement and a new feeling for me, abandon.
"Walk to the bed and stand beside it facing the bed," he told me.
Looking at him I did as I was told. When I got to the bed he told me to bend over it and reach across the mattress. As I did he walked around the bed.
"Give me your hand," he said.
I stretched my right hand out to him and he used a scarf that was somehow attached under the bed to tie it.
"The other one."
I extended that arm too.
I was tied across the bed face down from the waist up. My legs dangled off one side. He walked around the bed again and stopped just behind me.
"Spread your legs."
I did.
"More, open them wide for me."
