She had been on the road for what seemed like an eternity. She was well overdue for a break. She arranged with dispatcher for some downtime. She was craving the ocean breeze and the warm sun. And she knew just the place to get all she needed and then some. SAVANNAH!
She loves spending time there, the old homes, the Spanish moss-covered trees, the riverfront, and the food were just what she needed!
She got on one of the travel sites she likes when she visits down there to plan a few days of R&R. She loves taking the riverboat for the lunch time trip, the food is amazing. It's a great price for entertainment and food combos. So, she clicks that on the agenda planner. Another favorite for the same reason is the haunted trolley ride through the city. It also ends with an amazing dinner. She adds that too the agenda. Now to pick the perfect room with a view and jacuzzi tub. Once all the dates and times are set, payment is processed, and it is now a done deal.
She makes a salon appointment there as well, time for some well overdue pampering as well. From head to toe, she needs it all! "The perfect outfits can wait." She says to herself.
The last thing she needs to do is send a formal invitation to someone she'd love to have join her for the weekend. She's hoping he can get away and meet her for the weekend with a little over a week's notice.
She finds the template for the invitation online, saves it to her laptop and let's her fingers fill in the blanks.
"Sir you are cordially invited to join me for a weekend in Savannah. Here is the agenda and dates. Please RSVD as soon as possible if you will be able to join me, so that I can purchase your tickets for the two activities I've planned."
The room I have chosen is at a B&B downtown overlooking the town square. It has a private balcony as well as jacuzzi tub and private bar. Check in is at 12pm Friday. Late lunch about 1;30 pm and a nice stroll down the riverfront. Maybe a drink or two before dinner time at the B&B.
I have booked the haunted trolley ride that ends at the Pirate's house restaurant. Legend says the rum cellar is haunted by pirates. I have chosen that for Saturday evening at 7pm
Sunday afternoon I have booked the riverboat luncheon. 1pm is the time.
I will be arriving in Savannah early morning Friday; I have some other things to do before check-in time at the B&B.
I'd be honored if you can join me, but I will understand completely if you are unable to get away, Sir!
As Always.
Lisa
She saved the invite to her laptop and prepared an email to send it to him. Once the email was sent, she closed her laptop and set out to get this week's deliveries moving.
Her mind was racing, her heart was beating hard against her chest bone and her body was turned on. She could feel her flushed skin as warm as the late summer breeze coming through the van window. She can't explain how a man that's never touched her body except once in a friendly hug could possess such power over her body. The longing she craved to give herself away to this man was intense. There was something about him and the way he spoke, rather over the phone or in email exchanges, it was something deeper, something that feeds her mind. And in exchange her body comes alive with every word spoken.
She knows a lot of it comes from their love for writing as well as reading erotica. They have exchanged many stories over time, and she's even finished a piece for him once. So, there isn't any doubt he can get inside her head using words he has picked up on through those exchanges that trigger certain things within her.
She turns on the radio and sets her playlist. Music will keep her thoughts in check for now, so she can focus on driving and not this burning desire to serve this man in her head.
Miles later the day comes to an end and begins the search for a place to shut down for the night. Typically, she parks in a rest area, but she hasn't seen one in hours out here in the Midwest as she crosses these country highways. So, she'll have to settle for a gas station or shopping center parking lot if she can find one or the other. Her cell signal isn't strong enough to search for anything, so she'll have to rely on the GPS to get her to something. She pulls off the edge of the road to search for some place. And is lucky enough to find a truck stop about 30 miles away. She hits the ok for directions and off she goes.
Once parked, she's able to connect to the WIFI at the truck stop and check for any updates from the office. An email alert popped up as well. IT WAS HIM!!! Her heart felt like it stopped, and her hands were shaky as she opened the email. She skimmed across the words quickly searching for a response to her invitation and her heart dropped when she found what she was looking for.
"Lisa, as lovely as that sounds I unfortunately won't be available that weekend. I wish I had known before making other plans, I would have loved getting you alone in a jacuzzi tub, on a balcony, on a riverboat and down in a haunted rum cellar.
Can I get a raincheck for another time? And please take lots of pictures and enjoy your downtime. Again, I apologize for not being able to accept your invitation. Maybe on your way out of Savannah Sunday afternoon/evening we can catch coffee again. You know the place."
