Erica looked at the clock in the lower corner of her computer screen, tapping her pen impatiently as she sighed. Only fifteen more minutes until 5, but each moment seemed to drag on forever. Work never usually bothered her this much -- but then again, she didn't usually have anything to look forward to after her day was through at the office. Today was a different story; she was going out to dinner with Michael tonight.
Erica and Michael had been friends for years, and there had always been an obvious romantic tension between them. Yet somehow they always found themselves in relationships with other people, unable to admit their feelings to one another. But yesterday Michael had asked Erica to accompany him to a big social gathering with his new work associates at the law firm. Although he hadn't phrased it as such, this was finally the date she'd waited eons for.
When the clock finally struck 5, Erica sailed out the door and raced home to get ready. Once she got in the door, she stripped off her clothes and checked herself out in the mirror. She never thought her body looked perfect (what woman did?) but she felt confident tonight. As she slipped into a pair of black lace panties and a matching bra, she hummed to herself in excitement. Still staring in the mirror, she ran her fingers along her bikini line, sending a chill up her spine. She couldn't wait until Michael's fingers were doing the same thing.
When Erica answered the door, Michael almost gasped out loud. She looked gorgeous, in a low-cut black cocktail dress complete with a black choker. He'd always found Erica attractive, but tonight he actually had to catch his breath after his first glimpse.
"Well hello sir!" Erica giggled, unable to think about anything but how sexy and muscular Michael looked in his suit. The last time she'd seen him dressed up was probably at his senior prom almost 10 years ago. They embraced and the kiss he placed on her cheek gave her another chill. Before her mind carried her off, Erica began to head for Michael's car.
"You look absolutely amazing, Er," he said shyly, opening the passenger door for her. She thanked him, turning the same shade of pink. Once he was settled in the driver's side and the heat was blasting, he suddenly turned to her. "I know I'm supposed to be tactful and wait all night for this, but I really can't. Can I kiss you?" She was shocked by how blunt he was, but simultaneously ecstatic that she didn't have to wait any longer for the kiss she'd already waited so long for.
"Abso-" Before the word was completely out, he was leaned across the gear shift, with his hand on the back of her neck, gently kissing her. As she responded, his lips got hungrier and hungrier. Their simple kiss quickly turned into a full-on makeout session, her hands running through his silky hair. She couldn't believe , she thought she must be dreaming. Not only was Michael kissing her, but he was probably the sexiest kisser she'd ever met.
