It had been a long day. Actually, it had been a fucking long week. The project Sarah was working on was not going to plan, and she had been working flat out all week to put it right. She hoped her boss appreciated it. The only thing Sarah knew for sure was that her boss wanted to fuck her- he had made that very clear. She wasn't exactly complaining- she had never been above using her sexuality to get on at work. Naturally flirtatious, she knew her well-cut blouses and skirts kept the men on their toes. It wasn't that she didn't fancy him- Stuart was attractive for nearly 50- but his wife also worked for the company and she definitely didn't fancy the hassle.
Still, it was nice to know someone desired her. She hadn't had a man in some time. Not only that, it was Friday night, and Sarah had not a single thing planned for the weekend. Not for the first time, Kate had blown her out when that waste of space boyfriend Carl had come calling. At 38, Sarah was way too old to go clubbing by herself, but she was not going to fucking sit at home on her own all weekend. It wasn't often that Sarah wished she still lived with someone. Since she split up with Chris five years ago she had enjoyed the space of her own place, but tonight she wasn't ready to be on her own.
Sarah finally left work. It was a warm summer's evening, and the sun lifted her spirits as she walked down the hill into town. Her flat was only fifteen minutes' walk away, but on an impulse she turned towards Regent Street, heading for her favourite bar. Bar 47 was halfway down the street. In a town of Wetherspoons and Slug & Lettuce it kept a fiercely independent spirit, quietly deterring the hordes of 18 year olds with their alcopops and cheap lager, and retaining an older loyal clientele. This afternoon there were free tables outside where smokers hunched over their contraband, but Sarah headed indoors into the cool and dark. One large glass of wine later she settled into a chair, picked up a copy of Metro that was hanging around, and idly scanned it as she tried to shake the weight of the week's work from her mind.

Mark stared into his pint. Finishing work early was a rare treat and enjoying a quiet drink by himself an even rarer one, but he was wishing he'd bought a newspaper to pass the time. Not only that, but it would have been a good prop to help him take a better look at the woman sat in the corner. Her dark wavy hair fell to her shoulders as she unselfconsciously tucked it behind her ear. As Mark surreptitiously watched, she crossed her legs as she turned the page of her newspaper. Her skirt finished just above the knee, and Mark took in her legs and heeled shoes. Then she turned towards him slightly, folding the paper in half, and Mark caught his breath. She was wearing a blue fitted blouse which served to perfectly accentuate absolutely fantastic breasts. He was an unashamed admirer of big tits and he felt his cock begin to stiffen as he enjoyed the view. Suddenly, perhaps sensing him, she looked up.
* * *
She sensed him before she was even aware of it. She glanced up and noticed for the first time the guy sat on a stool at the high table in the centre of the room looking in her direction. He smiled briefly, but as soon as she returned the smile, he looked away. He was pretty good looking. Tall, young, decent suit, dark brown short hair, strong profile- he definitely ticked Sarah's boxes where men were concerned. She smiled again, inwardly this time. What was she going to do, pick up a guy at 5.30 on a Friday afternoon? It seemed unlikely. Still, he had been looking at her, hadn't he?
She decided to go to the ladies' room. She'd have to walk right by him on the way there and back. If he wanted to talk, maybe he'd say something. She was definitely up for a chat at least. If he wasn't interested, well, so be it. She got up and crossed the bar slowly and self-consciously. She couldn't stare at him, but she wanted to know if he was looking, so as she passed him she glanced over. He seemed intent on looking at his glass rather than her so Sarah walked on to the bathroom. She felt a little disappointed- he had obviously just been glancing around and happened to catch her eye. She really should go on a date or something. Or something- it was the touch of a man she wanted, his body against hers. Was it getting hot, or was it just her?
* * *
Mark felt his face redden. Christ, she'd seen him looking! Instinctively, his hand went to his pocket. He'd smiled at her as a sort of reflex to cover his embarrassment. Still, she had smiled back, but he'd had to look away. Shit. He was so out of practice. Mark went back to studying his pint intently, but out of the corner of his eye he saw her get up and walk in his direction. Bollocks. What was he going to say? Best just keep staring at the drink, he thought. When she walked straight past, he was confused for a moment, but glancing in the mirror behind the bar, he realised she was on the way to the ladies'. She had smiled at him, though, hadn't she? Perhaps she did like the look of him? Mark knew he should at least talk to her- if she wasn't interested, she'd soon tell him. His cock started to get hard again as he thought of those beautiful big tits. He imagined undoing her blouse to get a better look. Fuck, he needed another drink. He half-turned towards the bar- and as he did so the woman was coming back across the bar, looking straight at him. He smiled at her. "Hi," he said without thinking about it, "would you like a drink?"
* * *
Sarah was on her way back to her seat. To tell the truth she had already half-forgotten the guy- her thoughts were on the way home, to her evening meal, her glass of wine, her long, slow, sexy wank... when he said hi, she was almost surprised. Recovering her composure quickly, she smiled back. "I'd love one."
He smiled again. "I'm Mark, by the way."
"Sarah," she replied, suddenly feeling like a teenager. He was very attractive when he smiled.
"I'll just.."
"I..." they spoke at the same time. They both smiled, more nervously this time.
"White wine?" he asked. Sarah nodded.
"I'll just get my stuff from over there." It's just a drink, she thought to herself. Maybe I'll get a date out of it, maybe not.
Sarah found that they chatted easily. He was funny, charming and 29. 29! Shit. Still, he seemed to like her and unlike most men, didn't stare at her tits all the time. They were very big, she knew, and demanded attention, which generally she loved, but it was nice that he looked her in the eye most of the time. She did catch him secretly appraising her body from time to time- why not, she was doing the same. He was slim, which Sarah liked- muscle bound men tended to love themselves just a little too much, and a fat stomach was definitely a turn-off. More than that, she really fancied him. As they talked she found herself imagining what it would be like to kiss him, to touch his skin, to feel him against her. There was a real spark and she didn't want to let it go.
* * *
Mark couldn't believe how well it was going. She laughed at his weak jokes and didn't seem to notice when he checked out her body. She was wonderfully curvy. Her arse was probably a little larger than she'd like, but it went perfectly with those fucking big tits. Even when he discovered she was 38, he didn't mind- he'd always fancied older women, and anyway he'd be in his thirties very soon. Plus his cock was telling him he really wanted her- it had been straining at the leash the whole time they had been talking. The more they talked, the sexier he found her, and there was a real spark between them. Problem was, their drinks were nearly finished and he hadn't worked out what to do next. When a gap occurred in the conversation, he said tentatively, "Time's getting on- would you like to get something to eat?"
* * *
Sarah felt a nervous feeling in her stomach as she had an idea. "Would you like to come back to my flat? It's only five minutes away, we can relax and I can make us both some dinner?"
Just for a second, he seemed to hesitate, but then he eagerly agreed. Leaving the bar, they chatted a little nervously on the way to hide the tension. Sarah had a feeling it would be a while before they got around to dinner.
Her flat was small but welcoming. The front door opened straight into the living room. She showed Mark to the sofa while she went into the kitchen and opened a bottle of wine. She sat down next to him and placed their glasses on the table. Sarah looked up, and their eyes met. Sarah realised she could wait no longer, and leaned towards him. He seemed nervous, but Sarah had drunk just the right amount of wine, and was more than pleased to be in control.
* * *
He was not exactly surprised when she leaned towards him. The tension between them had been obvious on the way to the flat, and now they were alone together in private, it seemed natural- but he was still nervous. She looked him in the eyes and smiled. Then, she kissed him softly on the lips. And again. Suddenly, she was kissing him harder, her hand in his hair, and he felt a surge of desire. His hand began to gently trace patterns on her leg, slipping slowly under her skirt.
