"Charlene... you almost ready, hon?" he called up the stairs, checking himself in the hallway mirror. His black suit hung nicely on his frame, his hair combed neatly in place.
"Be down in a second!" she replied, and he walked back into the living room, checking the tickets in his pocket for what seemed like the hundredth time. He sat on the couch, absently flipping through the channels as he waited, hearing the familiar noises of her preparations above.
He had just begun settling into a reality show repeat when movement out of the corner of his eye distracted him from the set, and he turned toward the welcome interruption. She was walking down the steps, her feet ensconced in black stilettos which accented the lovely tone of her calves and her long, shapely legs. He followed those sensuous legs slowly upwards to the hem of her daringly short, black dress, which hugged every curve of her voluptuous body. The form-fitting dress plunged delightfully at the neck, offering a tantalizing glimpse of her ample cleavage. Skinny straps wound over her shoulders and he marveled again at how smooth and supple her shimmering skin was. Her arms were bare, a shiny diamond bracelet and glistening gold ring the only contrast to her olive skin. Her long black hair hung loose around her neck and shoulders, her lips painted a deep crimson, her beautiful eyes piercing through his soul, her long eyelashes batting at him as she returned his stare.
She appraised him as well. His brown hair was combed back as she liked it, and she couldn't wait to run her fingers through it. His black suit accented his muscular frame, the silk shirt underneath unfettered by a tie, but instead open at the neck. She felt his hazel eyes drinking in her appearance and felt herself uncharacteristically blushing. "What?" she asked demurely, turning away from his gaze long enough to grab a light wrap in case it was cold in the theater.
As her back turned to him, he saw that it was completely bare, the dress diving down low revealing her incredibly sexy back, her shoulder blades rippling under her velveteen skin. He saw the blush touch her cheeks, and responded, "Its nothing... you just look so beautiful."
This last he breathed in her ear, having found himself drawn to her from across the room he was suddenly there beside her, his hand on her back, smelling the flowery aroma of her hair, and the delightful scent of her perfume. She moved naturally against him, her lips brushing his, her body molding itself against him. Their kiss lingered for a few moments, when she playfully pushed him away and said, "Come on you, we're going to be late!"
He watched her, smiling at the way her hips swung from side to side as she walked. Chuckling to himself, he grabbed the keys and followed her to the garage, holding the car door open for her before hopping behind the wheel. The drive was filled with light chatter, low music, and comfortable silences. He could smell the sweet bouquet of her perfume, and as usual they couldn't keep from touching one another. His free hand nestled into hers, their fingers intertwined, caressing each other lovingly and exchanging meaningful glances at every opportunity.
Upon reaching the theater, he handed the keys to the valet, then placed his arm around her and helped steer her through the crowd. He could see the men and boys in the crowd, as well as several of the women, eyeing her as they strode towards the entrance. It excited him to see the lust in their eyes, to imagine what erotic and curious thoughts must be passing through their minds as they gazed at the beauty on his arm. He pulled her closer, feeling himself becoming aroused at the thought that he was the only one lucky enough to fulfill all of the fantasies of these envious onlookers.
Charlene also felt the eyes upon her, but also caught the more clandestine and approving glances the women (and a few of the more effeminate men) bestowed upon the man at her side. She felt a familiar warmth begin to spread through her knowing that while others desired him, he would be all hers later and forever.
They swept through the doorway, stopping for a glass of wine and mingling with a few familiar faces until the crowd began to shift towards the doors into the amphitheater. His eyes never left hers, and she could feel his strong hands on her silky skin, stroking her softly and brushing his lips against her exposed shoulders and neck often. She grasped his warm hand and they walked to the balcony, where their box seats awaited. The box was semi-private as they shared it only with another, older couple who sat in front of them and were so engrossed in the Playbill and crowd-watching that they barely noticed their two new neighbors.
She snuggled against him as they sat, hand on his thigh, his arm wrapped around her shoulders. The lights dimmed and the orchestra struck up the overture. She watched, enthralled as always by the theater. The music pulsed through her body, awakening every nerve ending and sending chills down her spine. It aroused her senses, and watching the colorful costumes and hearing the incredible voices of the actors only added to her excitement. She could feel his touch becoming more and more electric and she unconsciously moved her body closer and closer to his as the music ebbed and flowed. When the first act ended with a tremendous fanfare, she was trembling, and it took few moments before she could finally stand on her shaking legs. He supported her in his strong arms and led her to the bustling hallway. She excused herself to use the ladies room, where she composed herself and ignored the envious stares of the other women.
He was waiting when she emerged, and they drifted away from the crowd into a quiet corner, discussing the intricacies of the performance thus far. Soon conversation stalled, and she found herself pressing against him, it seemed that no matter how much he pulled her in she couldn't get close enough. He kissed her bare shoulders, her neck. He kissed her lips hungrily, tongue intertwining with hers, hands firmly on her waist. She pressed against him, feeling her breasts crush up against his muscular chest. The drone of the crowd was merely background noise, the world existed for only the two of them.
She felt him tense as they kissed, and he urgently broke their kiss. Startled, she began to object, but he pulled her along with him. Before she could ask what this was all about, he glanced around to make sure no eyes were upon them, and pulled her into a curtained, cordoned off area at the side of the hall. The small alcove was littered with stacks of excess chairs and a few serving trays. The tall curtains completely blocked out the crowd, though they could hear people walking by close to the curtains.
"What?" she began but his mouth was once again pressed against hers, with a passion and urgency he had been unable to display out in the public area. She let her body melt into his and returned his kiss with ferocity. She felt his strong hands slide down her body, caressing her breasts through the thin fabric. His thumbs outlined her hardening nipples as he kissed her deeply. His hands slid further down, and before she knew what was happening, she felt herself being lifted. When she came back down she could feel his hand between her legs. He rocked her back and forth on his hand expertly, rubbing her through the thin, lacy fabric of her sheer panties, feeling her warmth and growing wetness.
