Mark was having a really good time at his customer's expense. He, and a number of his colleagues, had been invited to the Project team's celebration meal at the successful conclusion of their implementation. Few people doubted that they would achieve launch, what was in doubt was whether they'd come in on time and within budget and what do you know they did.
The latter had been stretched but a few evenings of burnt candles had ensured the former and the customer was very gracious in their praise of Mark's team who, in fairness, had spent so much time in their customers company it was almost like a second home to them as they seemed to spend more time with the customer than at their own offices.
The seating had been completely random, and Mark found that one of his companies' trainers, Claire, had come and sat next to him. "Hope you don't mind, most of the people I knew aren't here."
Being a gentleman Mark naturally replied "Not at all. It isn't every day that I get to share such glamourous company." In truth Claire was a looker if a shade too young for Mark but it was her chest that regularly held his attention as she had the habit of walking around her training room making them jiggle invitingly. Claire stands at around the 5 8-mark, shoulder length brunette hair, piercing blue eyes that hold you like a tractor beam and a nicely rounded figure -- oh and did I mention her perfectly rounded boobs?
The evening proceeded well with the dishes coming in quick succession. The customers Project Manager had chosen well, and the wine was free flowing as all concerned were staying over in the neighbouring hotel so that the customers directors could formally sign off the Project the following day. Unconsciously Claire had repeatedly bumped against Mark shoulder as she was holding court with the people to her front and opposite side. She regularly apologised but as the evening wore on Mark could tell that the alcohol was having an effect on her.
Purely by accident, Mark's napkin has started to slip from his lap, and he made a quick lunge to catch it before it hit the floor. Inadvertently his hand had brushed against the young woman's leg. He had just opened his mouth to apologise when she turned to him and whispered "Oh Hello. Are we progressing to that stage of things this early in the evening?" and then proceeded to move his hand under the tablecloth and place it flat on her knee.
Mark held it there for a few minutes trying to gauge the situation before proceeding. So far, he had been the personification of charm and was at first apprehensive to progress things. Eventually he moved his hand slightly so that his fingertips gently grazed the inside of her knee and then held still again. Because of how the two were seated and the length of the tablecloth no casual viewer could discern what was going on. Claire knew what was going on, turned slightly towards Mark and let out a barely audible "Mmmm, that's nice. I hope you are going to carry on."
This emboldened Mark who stroked his fingertips slightly higher so that they started to graze the woman's inner thigh still feeling nylon and began to wonder how high they stopped and how high he should enquire with his fingers. Claire tentatively put her left hand on Mark's forearm. At first, he thought it was going to stop his progression and he would have accepted the ladies wishes if she didn't want him to progress.
It turned out that Claire's hand merely wanted to caress his arm, she leant towards him and placed her lips near his right ear whispering, "If you progress much further, I don't know if I'd be able to stop you."
With those words Mark returned his hand to rest flat on her knee replying in an equally hushed tone "I wouldn't want to push you into something you'd end up regretting in the morning" and nodded to the woman, subconsciously stating she was in the driving seat.
Claire gripped his arm firmer and pulled it towards her slightly so that his hand travelled in the same direction up her leg. She then leant back into Mark's arm and said into his ear "I didn't say I wanted you to stop, did I?" to which Mark raised his eyebrow in an unspoken question.
Claire shot him a stunning grin and added "We're both free agents and you have no idea what your fingers are doing to a certain area not a million miles away from where they are right now." Mark gave a chuckle just as Claire tugged on his nearest arm once more and so Mark stroked his fingertips higher up her inner thigh. She fixed him with a withering stare and added "You're very good at that. It makes me wonder what else those fingers are capable of?"
The rest of the room was forgotten as they stared at each other. Taking the bait, Mark replied "Play your cards right and you'll be able to find out, although I should say that is not my only talent" letting the comment hang in the air.
It was now Claire's turn to express a silent question with her facial expression but when Mark responded with a neutral expression she was compelled to ask "And? You can't just say something like that and not qualify it."
Mark barked a laugh and leant into his colleague whispering "Let's just say that at college I used to go by the nickname of Gecko -- you know the little critter who has a tongue so long that he can lick his own eyeballs" immediately afterwards he stroked his fingertips slightly higher. He couldn't work out if it was his hand or what he said but the young brunette gave a hushed whimper and was squirming in her seat.
She shot him a stern look and said "You had better be serious about going through with your words. I haven't had any of that action for months and I doubt I'll be able to sleep tonight now you've said and done that."
Mark sealed the deal by replying "I'm too much of a gentleman to make false promises to a lady. I will just say that it would be an honour to be able to provide such an obviously much-needed service to an esteemed colleague." He still didn't believe it was happening, but his words sealed it for Claire. She gripped his arm purposefully and drew it to her stomach while fanning her legs open safely hidden by the tablecloth, her actions had the effect of dragging his fingers up her inner thigh until his fingers came to rest where lacy stocking tops met soft flesh -- the back of his hand could feel the warmth radiating from her crotch.
Mark pulled his hand clear and theatrically stretched his arms announcing to anyone nearby "Well some of us need more beauty sleep than the rest of you young un's and so I'm off to my bed" he then exchanged a knowing look with Claire.
As he stood up, she in turn announced, also using a slightly raised voice "If you can wait for me to visit the little girl's room would you mind escorting a lady on this dark night".
Perhaps a little dramatic given the hotel was only next door but Mark smirked and bowed theatrically flourishing his hand and replied "Of course my lady, your virtue is in no danger while a good knight is close at hand" prompting a few jeers and no small amount of laughter from the remaining members of the project team.
As Claire emerged into the restaurant foyer Mark continued with the theatrics bowing deeply and crooking his arm so that Claire put her arm through, and they then left for the hotel. Claire leaned into him and said in a low voice "Can we walk a little faster. A certain part of me is quacking and if you don't attend to it soon, I don't know what will happen." Mark smiled. nodded and stepped up his pace enough for Claire as she too increased her stride. He held the door to the hotel open for her and they quickly stepped on the elevator as it stood with its doors open ready.
Claire pushed the button for her floor and as she drew her arm back Mark reached out with his hand and in a very serious tone asked "Can I just clarify that this isn't the drink talking? The gentleman in me has got to make sure you aren't about to do anything that you will regret in the morning, or next week or next year?"
