It had been years since they'd seen each other...Childhood friends who've managed to keep in touch sporadically over the nearly two decades since high school. Life had dealt them both their fair share of obstacles, but they each somehow managed to overcome them for the most part.
They've been talking over the phone & texting for a few months now and tonight would be their first official date. Skye wasn't nervous until just a few hours ago while she was getting ready for the big night. There was a mountain of clothes on her bed...outfits she tried on & took off thinking "too eager...too frumpy...too casual...too dressy...". She finally decided on a black & white dress with a halter & a keyhole cut that showed just enough cleavage to be sexy yet not easy & the new stilettos she bought just for such an occasion.
Just as she was spraying perfume on the back of her neck she heard a knock at the door. She instantly felt flushed with excitement and walked toward the door & grabbed her purse. She opened the door with the biggest, most genuine smile on her face.
"Peter!!" she said while stepping out to give him a hug.
"Skye! How are you, beautiful?" as he embraced her in a hug & lifted her off the ground & gently set her down & kissed her on the cheek.
She closed the front door behind her & they walked toward his Hummer. He opened the passenger door for her to get in & then walked around & got in the drivers seat. They headed off to go out to dinner.
During dinner they laughed & talked about old times, both fully aware of the sexual tension that has been mounting over the past few months, but neither one wanting to make it seem obvious.
They finished with dinner & left the restaurant. The night was beautiful. There was a full moon & a warm breeze blowing so they decided to walk to Peter's apartment two blocks away. They walked hand-in-hand, talking & laughing still.
They got to his apartment & he unlocked the door & they went inside. He put music on the stereo & poured two glasses of wine. They sat on the couch sipping wine, listening to music, inching closer to one another. The sexual tension was even stronger now. She told herself she wasn't going to sleep with him tonight. She was fighting the urge to lean over to kiss him. She told herself she would take things slow.
Peter suddenly leaned over & gently combed his fingers through her hair & placed his hand on the back of her head & kissed her on the lips. She melted. Her lips parted & their tongues touched. Their mouths opened wider & their tongues thrusted deeper. They embraced closer. He put his had on her knee & she felt her nipples begin to get hard. She knew 'taking things slow' was no longer an option. She could barely contain herself already, but all they were doing was making out like a couple of fourteen year olds.
She placed the palm of her hand under his shirt just above his belt. He kissed her harder, more passionately, & his hand slowly slid under the hem of her dress just above her knee. Her knees parted, almost involuntarily. He slid his hand further under her dress & caressed her thigh. She, in turn, slid her hand slowly up his side & across his chest & kissed him deeply. His hand slid back down to her knee & out from under her dress & Skye thought for just a moment "Oh no! We're moving too--", but before she could finish that thought he placed his hand low on her ribcage & pulled her on top of his lap.
