Chapter 11
Concert
Saturday morning and afternoon seemed to crawl by. I tried to keep busy by doing odd chores around the house and then a bit of shopping, including a large bunch of roses for Lucy. At one stage I was tempted to go to where she was working, just to see her face and the look in her eyes when she saw me, but I knew it was a busy day in the shop and I doubted she'd really appreciate me doing that.
Eventually it was time to get ready and like a teen-ager going out on his first date with a very special girl I found myself taking extra care with everything from the selection of suit, shirt and tie, to the closeness of my shave, and the brightness of the polish on my shoes.
But when she answered the door and I saw what Lucy had done to herself I felt like just a scruffy school-boy by comparison.
She seemed to have set out to make herself look older, more worldly, and although I loved the way she usually looked, what she had done simply took my breath away.
Instead of her hair hanging loose, she had used a much more complexly elegant style, sweeping it back and up on top of her head, holding it in place with a large, black comb. Her make-up was more sophisticated too, a little darker and heavier than usual, the shading around her eyes making them seem larger and even more brilliant.
Then I looked lower, and the sophisticated look was further heightened by the dress she wore. I suppose it was what would be called a 'classic little black dress', very simple lines, and as there were no additions or decorations to distract the eye, the final effect was totally dependent on how well it fitted the body inside it. On Lucy it looked as though every single cut and stitch had been made with precisely her curves in the designer's mind, and that he had set out to make sure the dress enhanced each and every one.
The colour of the dress heightened the creamy, lightly tanned colour of her skin and the low cut top and thin shoulder straps left plenty of that on show. And although the bust line had only a relatively modest vee cut, her breasts were so full that even that provided a tempting view of the start of the deep cleavage between them. To accentuate her neck and shoulders she had avoided a too ostentatious necklace, wearing just a simple, jet-black choker of beads and a tiny pair of matching ear-rings.
'You, you look even more beautiful than ever!' I stammered.
'Thank you, and you look particularly elegant tonight. Come in for a moment, I've almost finished putting my things together.'
Having finished packing her overnight bag I took it and the much heavier one containing her study books down to the car, and as we were having supper later, we went straight to the concert.
The performance was an exceptionally fine one and although the music held virtually all my attention I wasn't able to resist taking the occasional, surreptitious, sideways glance at Lucy. Each time marvelling not only at her beauty but at the fact she was there with me.
By the time the concert finished we were both feeling quite exhilarated, exchanging enthusiastic comments about various sections that had impressed us as we made our way to a nearby restaurant. We were still chatting excitedly when we were shown to a table but finally slowed when the food and wine arrived and we both realised that by then we were really quite hungry.
'Which was your favourite piece?' I asked after we had been eating for a while.
'Oh the concerto, I just love that one, it's so sexy.'
'Sexy?'
'Yes, especially the slow movement. I've often imagined making love to it.' she added in a much softer voice.
'I have a rather good recording of it at home, so that's something we can try, another evening.' I added.
She gave me a wry grin. 'I'll keep you to that, and look forward to it.' she paused for a moment, then added. 'Just remember that in some ways I'm even more sorry about Mother Nature spoiling our week-end than you are Jack, but as I said on the phone, you don't have to be totally celibate, we just have to be careful.'
I hadn't meant to say what I said next, well not there and then, and not under those circumstances, but I did, and having done so I wasn't really sorry that I had. 'Lucy darling, it's not just the sex. I mean, wanting to be with you, it's not just for the sex. Wonderful though that is.'
She gave me a surprised, but somehow knowing smile, then said. 'What do you mean Jack?'
It was a simple enough question and I knew what the right answer was, but for some reason I just couldn't get the words in my head into the correct order.
'I don't want you thinking that the only thing I'm interested in is the sex.' I finally managed to say in a reasonably controlled tone of voice.
'I know that Jack, we have many things in common, there's music and art.'
'I don't mean that, and you know it.' I said, interrupting her.
'What then?'
'I think I'm falling in love with you!' I suddenly blurted out.
She reached across the table and placed her hand on mine, then very softly, and sympathetically she said. 'I know you are Jack, and I'm feeling exactly the same way. But there are a lot of things to consider, aren't there.'
'You're falling in love me?' I asked in loud, much more excited voice.
'Shush, no need to tell everybody. Of course, you don't think I'm here just for a free concert do you?'
'No, no of course not! I just can't believe it!'
'Believe what Jack?'
