She stepped down the path leading to the docks. Good, the ship she wanted was there. That must mean HE'S there too… Excellent…
He had moored quietly the night before, slipping in, as per usual, when no-one noticed. He had tried to avoid coming here, but eventually found he had no alternative. SHE was here, and she wasn't some-one he wished to see.
They bumped into each other in the tavern, a night or two later. He scowled, as he greeted her.
"What are you doing here?"
"Could ask you the same question"
Each stared and the other, and each began to take in an account of the other. He observed her corseted top, holding her buxom chest captive by a mere few strings. Slightly beneath, her tiny waist emphasised by the weight above. Then her curvaceous hips, just right for childbearing… And of course, the mass of blonde, curled hair, the elegant nose, the slight sneer at the side of the mouth.
She, in turn, observed the tight-fit black shirt, the leather trousers, the black ribbon.
"You haven't changed a bit"
"Or you"
She slipped down onto the barstool next to him, taking care to ensure that as she sat, his arm would graze her legs. He pulled it away, scowling. She grinned to herself. Victory number one…
She did her best to lure him into conversation. He did his best to avoid it. He also attempted to avoid looking at her, avoided her gaze, ignored her inane babble. Yet found her strangely enticing, although he tried to suppress it, he could feel his member begin to awake as yet again, she brushed against him. Grimacing, he stood up and left the tavern.
She followed.
They had a history, these two. For this was his home town, she was the first girl ever to have known his pleasures. And she had remained besotted with him, and he had left. Yet her desire for him remained. And much as he tried to suppress it, he couldn't help but feel a slight desire for her. She had matured so, so spectacularly. He made a mental note to leave as quickly as possible, he hated the idea of having the same woman more than once. Except one… His mind raced back to that night two years ago, with the Portuguese Duke's daughter. Oh, she was amazing…
As he neared his ship more and more of that visit came back to him. The taunting, the wooing, the absolutely amazing sex… He reached his cabin, waltzed in and slammed the door. Sitting down, he smiled as he remembered the way she had handled him, lying back on the bed he loosened his trousers; his mind playing out those events. Absent-mindedly, his handed reached into his trousers, taking hold of his now fully erect penis and he began to stroke and grip, getting faster and faster as, in his mind's eye, she did the same. Oh, he had to have her…
When he awoke the next morning, the first thing he intended to do was to work out how quickly he could return to Portugal. He was annoyed, therefore, when he was interrupted by a hammering at his door.
"There's a lassie, Captain. Says she knows you. Says it's urgent. Shall I let her in, Captain? She's most insistent."
The Captain growled in response, and a few seconds later, she entered. She came over and sat on his knee, he was powerless to resist as she whispered in his ear.
"Take me. Like you did before. Come on, you know you want to. Don't deny me.." He shoved her from her perch and she landed with a bump on the floor. "Oh, you're ever so forceful. Then again, you always was". A pause. "Always the boss…"
He tried to ignore the babbling woman now sitting on the floor. He glanced at her, noticed the way she was sitting, her legs spread, skirt rising slightly revealing the merest hint of leg. Sharply, he turned back to his work.
"Brought you some apples. Nice and crisp, just how you like them. Only fell last week". His mouth watered slightly as he remembered them. "Remember the apple yard? We used to play there, me and you. You used to tease me, pull my plaits. Eee, don't it seem really long ago? Remember that day, too, do ya?"
She was watching him intently, noticed his attention wander from the maps and charts, focusing somewhere middle distance. She smiled to herself, she had him now and she knew it.
