She is waiting for me as I come down the jetway, wearing a white sundress with multihued orchids emblazoned on it. Her shoes are white, to match the dress, and she wears a large-brimmed straw hat bearing a band that is the same red as her hair.
She does not wave as I approach, but when I draw up in front of her, she reaches for my hand and, throwing caution to the wind, we engage in a lingering kiss. Oddly enough, there among the teeming and anonymous hundreds, I feel less exposed than any other time we have been together.
We proceed to the taxi station, where we catch the shuttle for the hotel. I have reserved a suite at the conference site, at a reduced rate, but still pricey. If asked I will say that it was all that remained for my last-minute arrival. Among the other lies I've told to get away, this one would hardly stand out.
Of course, none of this concerns me as we take our place at the back of the shuttle, holding hands, oblivious to who might see us. My wedding band is in my pocket. I had taken it off and pocketed it on the plane, drawing a censorious stare from my female seat-mate.
As in my fantasy, we kiss our way up the elevator, to the ninth floor. Her lips mold themselves to mine, our mouths adjust as we move, our tongues sliding against each other as we probe. Again, the exposure; the elevator is glass. The vague possibility that someone I know might see us hovers at the edge of consciousness. I am too besotted to care.
It takes only two tries to get the key to work and we are in the room, alone at last. She steps forward into my arms, grinding herself against my surely obvious erection. Her hand fumbles with the belt, the button, the zipper, releasing them all sufficiently that she is able to free my cock from its confines. I am extremely hard, the skin stretched taut. As she runs her fingers gently along my length, I swear that I can feel every blood vessel, every feature of my skin, in stark relief on her fingertips. I moan into her mouth, and it is all I can do not to explode on her right there.
Then, firmly grasping me, she breaks the kiss.
"Do you want to come right now?"
"Yes...no," I manage to croak.
"Which is it?"
"Both."
"Well, here's my problem, lover boy. I want to feel your tongue on my pussy and I want your hard cock inside it, in that order. But I want to shower first. Now," she says, with a devilish grin and a gleam in her eyes, "the conundrum." Where has this sang froid come from? Other times she seems so wanton and abandoned, but now she is completely in control. "I hear guys your age sometimes have problems getting it up again. I want to get on my knees and let you come in my mouth, because I don't think it's fair to leave you in this state and... well... because I feel like I've been wet ever since that email and you deserve some reward for that. You going to have a problem getting it up in a half-hour or forty-five minutes?"
As I respond, I am shocked by how confident I sound. "To fuck you? Not a chance."
"Okay," she says and drops quickly to her knees. With no preliminaries, she takes my cock as far into her mouth as she can, until I touch the back of her throat. Then, she simply starts pumping up and down, one hand making a fist at the base and jerking in opposition to the movement of her mouth. There is little technique, just a set of sensations: the hand squeezing me at the base, the lips clamping down and dragging the taut skin, the feeling of sliding along her tongue.
Then there are the sounds, the gulping sound as she takes me in again and again, the breathing through the nose, the moans as she expresses her arousal. She does not look up; her eyes are closed, intent on what she is doing.
It doesn't take long. The load I have been saving through six hours of transit from my home to the hotel, the load I have been wanting to release for a week despite the increased frequency of sex with my wife, comes roaring (I actually thought I could hear it roar for a moment) from my balls and down her throat. I cry out, hoping no one is in the adjoining rooms, but caring very little if they are. She makes a little choking sound and, as I look down, I see a small amount of my semen escape onto her lips.
When I'm finished, she pulls away and stands up. Then, looking directly into my eyes, takes the drop of me on her fingertip and, coquettishly, places the finger in her mouth in an exaggerated pantomime of sucking, smiles, and turns to the bathroom.
"Be naked when I get out," she calls behind her. The last I see, as she steps in to the bathroom, is her reaching back for the zipper on the sundress. I hear it unzip and it flies unceremoniously through the doorway. The door closes.
I waste no time in stripping and, following her lead, I simply throw my clothes to the floor. Not sure of what to do, I turn back the covers on the king-sized bed and lie down on the left, my accustomed side, and one that will force her to cross the room in easy view. The hiss of the water can be heard, and soon wisps of steam can be seen from under the door. I imagine the water sluicing over her body, trying to reconstruct it from the bits and pieces I have seen. Blood begins to rush to my crotch and already I feel my cock begin to stir. A good sign.
