"Christy and I met on Valentines day," Chris told Jack as they sat down at the breakfast table.
Christy, Chris' wife, answered from where she was making breakfast at the stove, "If I remember correctly, you'd gotten drunk at the O.K. Corral and fallen and cracked your head while trying to stumble home."
"Yup," answered Chris. "I crashed headfirst into the steps of the 1st Presbyterian Church."
Christy brought two plates of pancakes and sausages to the table, and stopped behind Jack to pour him a cup of coffee. The obvious adoration that wife had for husband was apparent with each word. It made the hairs on the back of Jack's neck stand up and a tingle ran from his head to the base of his spine. "He was charming, even with the smell of stale beer and all the blood. He went on and on about angels of mercy and how he'd never seen anything so beautiful in his whole life. "
Jack could completely understand his friend's infatuation. Christy was beautiful, in every meaning of the word. Tall and leggy, she had honey blonde hair that brushed just below her shoulder blades, and matched her eyes perfectly. Long lashes gave her and innocent, child-like look, but there was nothing child-like about the build of the rest of her body. Her breasts were small, but full, and her belly flat and trim.
He felt her breast brush the side of his cheek as she leaned forward and poured his coffee. Unconsciously, he breathed in and his nostrils were filled with a soft, musky scent from the nape of her neck. He noticed the gentle sweep of her arm, flowing to her graceful wrist and hand. Suddenly, he stiffened. Her rich voice stirred something deep inside him. Jack wasn't sure if it was the sound of her voice, or her scent, but for a flash, he was jealous, and wanted to possess what his friend had.
In his mind's eye, Jack envisioned his friend's wife, wrapped in his arms, willingly receiving his passionate kisses. He thought of loving her right there, laying her out on the table, her long blonde hair wrapped in his fingers. He pictured how her slender body would feel as he rocked her gently below him. Quickly his mind calculated how her pert breasts would fit perfectly in his large hands, in his greedy mouth. He pondered the taste of her honeyed lips, and the sound of her sultry voice passionately whispering softly his name over, and over, "Honey... Jack... Jack, Honey... Jack..."
Jack startled out of his daydream to see his friends gazing quizzically across the table at him. "Honey, Jack? For your coffee?" Christy offered him a plastic bear filled with tasty honey. Jack shook his head as a flush spread from his neck up into his cheeks. He quickly stuffed a bite of pancake into his mouth and lowered his head so his friends would not see his embarrassment. He didn't dare draw any more attention than he already had. He'd come to breakfast in a pair of sweats and a t-shirt, and if he stood now, his discomfort would be obvious to all of them.
