He had proposed to her a couple of years back and she had gladly accepted. But he didn't go beyond holding her hands; not displaying sexual attraction or initiative on his part. It was making her doubt her own attractiveness, or have misgivings whether he was asexual or impotent. She was sexually charged but his lack of passion left her frustrated. As it mounted she sought to release the tension.
She had to be circumspect, with her family sleeping next to her. Her breasts would suddenly become stiff at the nipples and even the gentlest of touches would make them more tender and inflamed. Only in the privacy of the bathroom, could she allow her hands free play, taking care to be quiet as she fingered herself to release. But something was missing, it wasn't the real deal, but just imagination in overdrive.
One fine day when they were alone at her house, she was looking particularly beautiful in a large billowing top. Through the sleeves he could make out vestiges of her bra. Emboldened, he took a make or break decision. Despite his bashfulness, he garnered the courage to state how he felt and asked for permission to touch her in various ways. She couldn't believe her ears and bursting with happiness, demurely concurred. His wish being granted, he was besides himself in joy.
He stroked his fingers up her arms into the armpits, rubbing them in circular fashion, then whiffed her scent. He moved his hand into her top, gently caressing the contours of the brassiere. She bit her lip with exotic new feelings coursing through her, making her seem even more desirable. They had to go for a movie that afternoon, but rather than the screen, their attention was focused on each other.
Like a man freed after years in gaol, his initial explorations were tentative, like venturing into a new frontier, or uncharted territory, unsure of what lay ahead. But as her body responded to his touch, almost blossoming with desire, his moves became bolder and more frenetic, almost reveling in the danger. Caution thrown to the winds, frantically his fingers explored hidden niches, as if having a life of their own, arousing the flames of their passions.
Too soon the movie came to an end and his ministrations too perforce. He had to leave for a pre planned trip later that evening. On the train journey lying on the bunk, he rocked along with the movement of the carriage, to a release bringing him small comfort.
She had returned home in a daze, aglow with a feeling she had rarely experienced before, all doubts and queries that plagued her mind resolved. Everyone was away, so she came to the bedroom, undressed completely, and with a glazed look in her eyes pleasured herself to a climax on the bed, guilt free,. Not caring whether it was right or wrong, just overflowing with joy, experiencing bliss, with his image imprinted in her mind's eye.
He was to return later that week, so the time spent apart was sheer torture, as they had just their imagination to work on, literally taking matters into their own hands. Absence makes the heart grow fonder, so on the weekend they planned a rendezvous at his Kandivali apartment, with friends as chaperones and a convenient alibi. They got there in the evening and after Chinese takeaway for dinner, games and repartee, he yawned and they bid each other goodnight. The two girls were sharing a room, her fiance and another friend bunked together, whilst he had the master bedroom all to himself.
He had just changed into his pyjamas and was in the process of putting his clothes away when the door creaked open and there she was starry eyed. She had been standing there watching him change through the doorway slightly ajar, quietly admiring his lean body and hirsute torso and rounded buttocks, managing just a glimpse of his manhood between his thighs. Unbeknownst to her, he had caught a glimpse of her peeping at him through her reflection in the dressing mirror and deliberately took his time, languorously shedding his garments as if he had all the time in the world.
He invited her in and closing the bedroom door, asked her if there was anything she needed. Tongue-tied she could only shake her head, a blush speeding across her cheeks. Emboldened, he took her in his arms and kissed her on the lips. It was their first liplock, though clumsy to begin with, they quickly got the hang of it. Hurried at the onset, they learnt to slow down, savour the moment, be gentle, exploring every part in detail, giving as much pleasure as they received. Her lips were sweet and luscious and tasted divine, whether it was her lipstick, something she ate or just nature itself he couldn't guess. He himself had popped a mint after the meal and was glad as it masked the garlicky taste of the Chinese food.
