"Look at this place!"
I struggled up out of a deep sleep, momentarily disoriented, to find Carol standing in the middle of the room, hands on hips, surveying her surroundings. I looked at my watch. Six-forty. We had slept through the night.
Carol had discarded the ruined shirt from the night before and was now standing naked in the middle of the room. In our haste the previous evening, I had been conscious of her body's special beauty only in a general sense. Now I propped myself on one elbow and studied her more closely as she moved about the hotel room examining its amenities. Her breasts were high, firm and beautifully shaped. Long perfect legs rose from small shapely feet to meet in a triangle of golden hair. A tiny waist accentuated her slender hips. Her round little ass blended nicely into a delicate back, almost completely covered with cascading blond hair. Her skin was flawless.
I could feel a familiar stirring between my legs. She was breathtaking and she seemed to have no inhibitions about parading around, completely naked, in front of a man she hardly knew. For my part, I was more comfortable with the sheet pulled up to hide my growing erection.
"Look at this place!" she repeated. "Have you ever seen anything like it? Wait until you see the Jacuzzi and fireplace in the other room. And the bathroom is big enough to play tennis. The shower has three shower heads! And look at these mirrors!"
I glanced around. She was right, the room we were in was beautifully appointed. The media center housed a sixty-inch TV, DVD player and stereo system. The unseen Jacuzzi and fireplace intrigued me. Several erotic fantasy images raced through my mind. Glancing at the strategically placed mirrors, I was sorry we'd slept away so much of our allotted time in the room.
"The desk clerk didn't say anything about a fireplace."
"Well, it's there, right across from a Jacuzzi big enough for a diving board."
Carol continued to move about the room for a minute or two, examining the room in detail. As she did so, the expression on her face changed slowly from girlish delight to somber thoughtfulness. Finally, she crossed the room to sit facing me on the bed, tailor fashion. My cock swelled.
"Scott, I think it's time to talk," she said, looking pensive.
"All right. Last night you said you had a plan. Want to tell me about it?" I offered, my erection dwindling.
"It wasn't so much a plan really, more of an idea. I had a notion that we should pay them back in kind. Set something up so Brad and Kelly could catch us like we caught them. Then they'd know how it feels. But I want us to look as comfortable together as they seemed to be. So I thought we could sort of rehearse the performance for however long it took to plot our revenge."
"Looks like we got a good start last night."
"I guess we did," Carol responded, blushing prettily at the mention of our incredible encounter the night before.
"So, when did that idea first come to you?"
"It flashed through my mind when I was waiting for you in the lounge. After that, things sort of went haywire and I didn't really think about it again until this morning."
"Well, as gratifying as it might be to pay them back, it won't work. Not like that anyway. Have you ever seen an X-rated movie?"
"Maybe," she grinned.
"Those people are professionals at screwing in front of others and they usually can't keep their performances from being wooden and insincere. I'm neither actor nor exhibitionist enough to handle that kind of thing. Besides, if I really thought they were watching us, I'd probably never get it up."
"That would impress them," Carol giggled.
"I'm serious. I suppose we might be able to videotape ourselves and leave a copy or two lying around. But I think that's called 'evidence' and we don't need any of that getting loose. In any case, whatever we did would look cheap by comparison to them because we'd be acting for the camera. They weren't. They looked natural and uninhibited. Just like we were last night. If they had seen us, they'd have received the shock they deserve. But they didn't and I can't think of any way to set up what you're after."
"You're right. It was just a thought. Besides, I'm having second thoughts now anyway."
"How so?"
"This will sound funny but I'm not nearly as pissed off at them as I was last night. Our going to bed together took the edge off my anger. Last night I could have gleefully strangled them both. This morning I'm not sure exactly what I feel, but it isn't murderous."
"I know what you mean. Twelve hours ago I thought my world was ending and then you came into the picture. Now I find myself thinking about you and me, rather than them. And I don't want to go home. At least not yet. For one thing I don't know how I'm going to handle the situation when I get there. For another, you are beautiful and sexy and I haven't had nearly enough of you. Last night blew my mind."
Carol looked at me a long moment and said, "I thought it was pretty special myself. The whole thing was the most erotic experience of my life. What we saw from your deck and what we did here was beyond anything I've ever even fantasized about. I want more too, but I don't see how we can avoid going home today. Once we confront them, the lid will get blown off this whole mess and I'll end up feeling like I got cheated out of something good. That pisses me off."
"But we don't have to go home today."
"How can we avoid it?"
"Easy. I call Kelly and tell her I'm staying over a day to meet with another client. You call Brad and tell him there's been a scheduling snafu and you have to stay over in Dallas for a night.
"Don't you think Kelly will get suspicious?"
"No. My travel schedule is always pretty fluid because clients constantly change things. Plus she's going to be so delirious over the prospect of another night with Brad she won't give it a second thought. I'll bet she calls him thirty seconds after I tell her I'm coming in a day later. By the time you call Brad he'll be at such a fever pitch he'll buy anything."
