She loved to see his name in her email inbox because it meant he had been thinking of her so far away. They had met online in a chat room a few months ago and had relied on emails and phone calls to get to know one another. There were obstacles to overcome; he was married and living in England and she lived in Iowa. But there was a connection there that was undeniable. Their emails were filled with details about their lives and personalities as well as flirtations and outright sexuality. They enjoyed the sexual freedom they felt with each other and their phone calls often ended with orgasms. Doc was skilled at describing just what he wanted to do to her and Jules loved his accent and imagination.
Finally the time had come for them to meet. Jules had purchased a ticket to London and they were going to meet at her hotel. Of course there was fear; and with each passing mile the fear increased. Would he be attracted to her? They had exchanged pictures but she still harbored a fear that he wouldn't want her. Would they have things to talk about or would their conversation be stilted and uncertain? So many questions and the answer would have to wait until they saw each other.
When Jules arrived at the hotel she was supposed to email Doc. But as she sat on the bed with her laptop in front of her, she hesitated. What if it was awful and all those months of desire and getting to know each other would be revealed as a waste of time? Jules finally summoned up the courage to let him know she was in London. He must have been waiting by his computer because his response was almost instantaneous. It was decided Doc would come to her hotel room at 9:00 that evening.
Jules hopped in the shower and got herself ready for her date. She took one last look in the mirror when she heard a soft knock on the door. She breathed deeply and tried to calm her nerves as she walked to the door. Her hand shook as she turned the knob.
When the door swung open she saw Doc standing there looking sexy and fit. His silver hair was neatly groomed and the smile on his face immediately put her at ease.
"Hello, Darling!"
"Hey, Doc!"
He moved in close to her and kissed her on the cheek and she could detect his wonderful smell. Jules moved to the side and let him into the spacious room and he entered. They stood for a moment looking at each other and smiling. Her fears were gone; this was good.
Doc asked her if she was hungry and she emphatically nodded her head. She expected him to escort her to the hotel restaurant but he had other ideas.
"Why don't we call room service then, Darling?"
It was the perfect suggestion because it would allow them to be alone and really get to experience each other. They perused the menu and chose some food for each of them and he made the phone call to order the food. They sat on the bed to wait for the food and he reached out to touch her hand.
"You look pretty and I'm so glad you came to London."
It was a relief to hear him voice those words because she had been so worried about him being attracted to her. She was so relieved that she spontaneously kissed him on the lips. It was a move that startled both of them. He smiled and kissed her, his eyes twinkling.
