Jenny.
Slowly people approached us from out the shadows of their houses. Some kind souls brought some blankets for us to cover our naked bodies other's s mall cups of coffee.
I looked at Paul. He was very quiet. Linda, Michelle and Franklin couldn't stop talking. I walked over to him and placed my arm around his waist.
He stiffened then looked at me and smiled then turned his head to look down on Ahmed's body. The sword he'd thrust into his back was still sticking up in the air.
"What's wrong?" I asked, rubbing myself against him. I badly needed him to make love to me.
"I've never killed a man before. Well, not deliberately. Not in cold blood."
No, he hadn't. Not like this. Small had been killed in the middle of a desperate fight, Tommy had been more accident then design and the ten or so in Haiti had been through his miscalculating the amount of drug to pour into the jugs of Rum Punch. This had been different. Despite Michelle emptying her Revolver into Hamed he would not fall. It was only Paul running him through that had brought him to the ground.
I could feel him shaking so I held him close and ran my fingers through his hair. There were tears in his eyes when I next looked into his face. Somebody was squeezing my heart. I wanted to give him everything I could. There and then. He looked so sad.
I felt another arm snake around my back.
I turned my head. Linda kissed me then kissed Paul.
"Thank you."
"What for?" Paul asked.
"For coming to help me. I can never repay you."
She looked up into Paul's face.
"What's wrong?" She asked.
"I killed him." Paul muttered in reply.
"Thank fuck you did."
"But." Paul struggled for words.
"When I think of what they did and what they were going to do. They were evil. They deserved to die."
Yes. We mustn't forget what they must have put Linda through.
"How's Ian?" She asked.
"He's on the mend." I replied. "You'll be able to see him in a few hours."
Michelle walked across to join us. She looked badly shaken. I looked around for Cleo. There she was. One of the local women was cradling her in her arms. She seemed fast asleep. Paul released me and placing his arm around Michelle's pulled her into our group. What the locals must of thought? What with four near naked westerners standing in a huddle alternately laughing then crying. It must confirm their beliefs in the strangeness of Infidels.
For a moment there was stillness then everything seemed to happen at once. We were all given blankets and cups of coffee. The women folk tried to shepherd us away from the eyes of their men. All except Paul. He stood alone looking down at the remains of Hamed and Ahmed. Both bodies seemed to be slowly collapsing. The sword fell to the ground. I watched him bend and pick it up, turning it over and over in his hands.
Cars started to arrive. Michelle left us to join Franklin in the back of one. Then a Police car, then another. It was a little like a dream. I wanted to go with Paul when they took him away but I was prevented from doing so. Linda,
Cleo, Linda and I were bundled into an unmarked car and driven back to our hotel. The foyer was decked out for the previous evening s Christmas party. The Hotel staff was cleaning up the mess. We were told by the driver of the car to go to our room and wait. We would be contacted shortly.
Once in our room Linda made up a nest for Cleo on Paul's bed and opened her suitcase onto mine. For a moment she looked down at the contents then her shoulders started shaking, her blanket slipped from her shoulders and slid slowly to the ground, then she burst into tears. I could feel my chest filling with emotion and my tears joined hers as I held her close. "I'm sorry." She muttered, running her fingers through my hair. "It 's just the reaction, I think."
"I know." I replied. "It's all over now. We just have to get Paul back. Why did they take him?"
"The Sergeant said something about arresting him for murder."
"He didn't murder anybody." I protested.
My blanket fell to the ground. It itched anyway.
"He was holding the sword and I heard somebody say they saw him use it." Linda said, turning my face to her own and kissing my tears.
"I want Paul." I said as she pulled me close. I did. But I also wanted Linda. It had been well over a year since we had made love. I 'd thought it had been a phase I'd gone through. Something I'd never feel the need to repeat. But seeing her, holding her naked body against my own. I needed her.
I could feel her nipples hardening against my breasts. I could feel my own responding. I could feel myself becoming moist, no, wet. Her hand slipped between our bodies and squeezed my lower belly, just above my pubic mound. I suddenly felt so hot. I opened my leg as her finger moved down between my hairs. I closed my eyes as her fingertip rubbed along my fanny lips. I rose onto tiptoe as she gently pushed it between and inside me. I gasped out loud as she worked it in and out. I sighed a little 'Moe' of disappointment when she pulled it from me. Changing it to "Yes. Yes." As she started to rub my clit.
Knock. Knock.
Fuck it. Somebody was at the door.
"Who is it?" Linda called out over her shoulder.
She sounded as exasperated as I felt.
"It's Lee-Anne and Jerez." Came the reply. "Let us in, please."
Linda removed her finger from my clit and patted me on the bum.
"Just one second while we finish dressing." Linda spoke loudly.
She picked up a dress from her pile of clothing and dropped it over her shoulders and wriggled her hips and breasts into place. I took one of min e from the closet and did the same. Only I didn't have to wriggle as much. Opening a drawer I took out a pair of panties as Linda walked to the door.
"You won't be needing those today." She said just loud enough for me to hear.
I hurriedly stuffed them back inside the drawer and closed it on them as she flung the door open wide.
"Where's Cleo?" Lee-Anne cried out as she burst into the room. "Where is she? Oh Cleo."
She burst into tears as she lent over the bed to pick her up.
Cleo started crying herself as she was awoken from her sleep.
Jerez slowly hobbled in after her, leaning heavily on a stick.
Lee-Anne turned to him and presented Cleo to him.
"Oh, Jerez." Lee-Anne was laughing now, between her tears. "She's all right."
Jerez looked, touched Cleo's head then Lee-Anne's. He smiled broadly.
"And are you all right?" He asked, turning to us.
"Oh yes." Lee-Anne gushed. "Please say you are. Have the Doctors examined you. Where's Paul?"
"He has been arrested for murder." I blurted out.
I was full of emotion again. This time for Lee-Anne. And Jerez. And myself.
"I'm be all right." I said, blinking back the tears then I looked at Linda. I suddenly felt very wet.
"I'm feeling fine now." Linda said, her eyes on my face. "I just need some rest and a few good meals."
"I would like you to tell me what happened to you." Jerez started.
"Not now, Jerez." Lee-Anne said, handing Cleo to him and feeling Linda's forehead and taking her pulse.
"You're a little warm and your pulse is slightly fast." She looked from Linda to me. "Yes. I think you probably do need a lie down. Let's not bother them now."
"I will send a car to take you to the Hospital to see Ian this afternoon after you have had a chance to rest. I must see about getting Paul released. Come Lee-Anne. I am in your debt forever."
They closed the door behind them leaving Linda and myself standing at the foot of the bed. Jerez would look after Paul. I felt as if a weight had been lifted from my shoulders. I suddenly felt I could relax completely.
Linda stepped in close to me and ran her fingers down the side of my face. Then along the line of my jaw and down the side of my throat. At my collarbone she stopped and lifted on the straps of my dress. I helped her to pull it over the top of my head and stood naked in front of her. She looked at my body as if it were for the first time. She lifted and felt my breasts then traced lines down the outside of my ribcage with her fingertip s. My fanny seemed to cry out, "Hurry. Hurry." I could feel my lips parting as they swelled in anticipation. Feel my clit throbbing, aching to be touched.
She parted my pubic hairs with her thumbs and we both looked down. I could see the beginning of my slit. The mound that protected my clit. She placed one fingertip upon it.
Knock. Knock.
