Terri and Jack slowly broke their kiss. The smiles returned and a friendly mood surrounded them once more. The kiss had done wonders for Terri's nerves turning tingles of fear and doubt into warmth and maybe just a little bit of hunger. Jack on the other hand was beginning to feel a bit of performance anxiety. He laughed to himself when he realized there was no need to worry about his tongue getting soft.
"What are you laughing at?" Terri poked him accusingly.
"I'll tell you later. Let's go, I think my nose needs tickling." Jack rubbed his nose feigning an itch.
"Yeah? Tickled by what?" Terri teased.
Jack looked at her for a moment not understanding. When he finally got it, he gave Terri a look of mock surprise followed by a deep rolling laugh. He was still laughing as she pulled him out of the salon.
After locking the door Terri and Jack moved slowly to their cars, which were parked together. Terri moved in between the cars and tossed her purse through the open window.
"Good thing it didn't rain. So whose place shall it be, yours or mine? I vote yours." Jack leaned back on the car making his feelings clear.
"Why is that?" Terri thought it should be his place since her roommate would be home this time of night.
"Well there are a few reasons. The first is you can kick me out when you're done with me." Jack started counting them off tapping his finger with each point. "Also, my roommate is home and although I know you have one too, mine's a guy. I'm sure your roommate would be much more discrete about all the noise you're going to be making soon."
Jack noted with some pleasure the open mouthed shock his last comment had earned. Faked or not it was worth it. Terri started to say something but Jack cheated stopping her with a quick kiss.
"Next there's the surgeon general's warning that I'm required to give to all the women who enjoy my considerable talents." He took on an official tone. "Warning - Do not operate heavy equipment, drive, or perform sensitive tasks after receiving sexual pleasure from the man in front of you."
She tried to fight it, but Jack was just being too goofy. Terri laughed at him as he kept trying to look serious.
"You may laugh, but this is serious. I can't let you have an accident on the way home. Not that you'll be able to walk for an hour." He thought about the last statement remembering childish promises of fucking a woman so hard she won't be able to walk for a week.
"At least you won't want to," he amended. Terri understood exactly the point he had made from an earlier conversation. She was convinced.
"Okay you've sold me. You're right, if it's that good I won't want to drive home and I'm sure as hell not spending the night with you. You think I want your roommate telling all your buddies about how you brought a woman home and your room was completely quiet the entire night? I'd hate to do that to you, buddy. Follow me." Terri dropped into her car and started it.
"Don't lose me at any lights. I'd hate to think what the interest might be if we had to wait a day." Jack's last sentence was lost in the squeal of her tires. He raced around his car and floored it to catch up.
Terri had momentarily been tempted to leave him or pull ahead and hide out to make him sweat. The joking had left her in a playful mood but the yellow light ahead brought her back to the reality of her situation. Her tires left tread four feet past where she was supposed to stop. Her car was canted just slightly to the left from the skid.
There was no doubt now. Terri wanted Jack. As Jack pulled along side to grin, she was realizing that more than just exchanged oral favors was about to happen. Jack may think that he'll go down and go, she thought to herself. She smiled back at him telling herself he still owed her a tip for the cut. She pulled away slowly as the light turned green. Jack eased in behind her and noted she never went above the speed limit the entire way.
Terri turned her car into an apartment complex. Jack followed her to the back of the development negotiating the twists and turns. It seemed like a decent place to live and he made a mental note to ask about the rent later. Terri turned into a parking space waving Jack into one of the visitor slots.
Jack walked up to Terri's car as she got out. He followed her down the sidewalk. Ahead was an outside stairway with a doorway at each of the two landings it contained. The ground floor also had two doorways. Jack grabbed Terri's arm stopping her.
"Do you have to get up early in the morning?" Jack asked.
"No, why?" Terri responded. Jack looked at her seriously.
"Because this is going to take a while." Jack struck a heroic pose and leapt up the stairs two at a time. Just as he was getting to the first landing he heard her yell.
"I've got the time, big boy. But you should know that I live on the ground floor." Terri was grinning through her underwhelmed tone.
"I knew that." Jack said as he started back down the stairs. He thought about hopping over the rail halfway down but she was right under where he would land. He walked up behind her as she opened the door. Loud music he hadn't noticed beat at their ears as the light from inside spilled out of the doorway. He remarked about the soundproofing to Terri.
"What?" She yelled back.
"Nice soundproofing." He yelled.
She left him to close the door and she went up to the stereo and turned it down.
"Hey Terri." The female voice came from the back room of the apartment.
"Hey Vicki, you alone?" Terri yelled back.
"Yeah, Eric has to work late tonight." Terri's roommate came into the room wearing a cut-off shirt and shorts. She noticed Jack and waved. He smiled back. Terri made quick introductions and turned the stereo up a little. She and Vicki exchanged looks behind Jack.
Jack didn't notice the girl's quiet communication. He was too busy checking out Vicki's tight tan belly. He watched her sit down and pick up a woman's magazine. The expected roll around the belly button never appeared. As Terri pulled him toward the bedroom he congratulated himself. At least I didn't stare at her tits, he thought.
Terri grabbed the bottom of her shirt and started pulling. Jack wrapped his arms around her to stop.
"You in a hurry?" He asked.
"Yeah. No matter how good you think I am, I can never keep hair from getting in my clothes. I always change when I get home. Besides you're only going to take what I'm wearing off anyway." She watched him smile.
"You'll have your clothes on longer than you might think." Jack closed the door as he exited the room giving her a chance to change. He was right in thinking she might like some privacy. Terri appreciated the gesture.
She opened the door giving Jack the best look he had at her body yet. He also knew he was busted. Terri was wearing nearly the same clothes as Vicki. A wicked look on Terri's face confirmed he had been caught. A quick kiss of appreciation for letting her change alone allowed him his first chance to touch her body without clothes. Her skin was soft and smooth with a hint of tautness underneath. His hands were barely on her sides a moment when she broke off and walked to the small kitchen.
Jack was left with his hands in the air and the stirring in his pants. He followed Terri with his eyes until he could get his feet moving. He declined the beer she offered asking for water instead.
"It's thirsty work I'm about to do. I better get hydrated." He suddenly remembered Vicki was sitting right behind him. A quick look at Terri told him it was okay.
"What work would that be?" Vicki came up behind him pressing herself a little closer that he would have expected. Terri's expression never changed.
"Ask Terri." Jack took a drink trying to get off the hook. Terri laughed.
