"Damn! Your folks are still up." I pressed down on the accelerator to get us beyond the view of their livingroom window as quickly as possible. Fortunately, they lived in a house set well back from the road. While I could plainly see them sitting there, with their interior lights reflecting back at them off the big picture window, the odds that they recognized my car passing by were slim to none.
"Oh well," Marie sighed in disappointment as she pulled my right hand from between her thighs. Her voice then adopted a taunting edge. "I guess you'll just have to wait 'til next weekend."
"Not likely," I chuckled as I pushed my hand back into place and pressed so hard against the thick blue jean fabric over her zipper that she moaned in throbbing desire.
I used a driveway to make a Y-turn β not an easy maneuver with just my left hand β and headed back the way we came, again speeding past Marie's house and her parents in the front room. A quarter mile further down the road I found the short dead-end street I'd noticed a minute earlier. Its five houses all had their porch and driveway lights lit, making the whole cul-de-sac nearly as bright as day.
I parked between two driveways in a position where residents of either property could reasonably assume my car belonged to a visitor to the other house. I turned off the engine. It was a brisk autumn night, but still warm in the car. I'd had the heater running, and soon we'd generate ample heat ourselves. Scanning the little neighborhood's windows, I concluded no one had taken note of our arrival. I started to climb into the back seat.
"Not here!" Marie protested. "It's too bright. Everyone can see us."
