Janine decided that it wasn't worth getting pissed off over. She had been waiting for half an hour on her date to arrive, and there was still no sign of him. Standing in the lobby of the movie theater, she checked her watch again. Ten more minutes and the movie they were supposed to see was going to start.
Where the fuck was Alan? They had not been getting along particularly well lately and she thought they probably wouldn't be seeing each other much longer, but she couldn't believe that he would just stand her up.
Now what was she going to do? She was annoyed and disappointed at the same time. Alan may not have been her perfect match, but he was the only man she was currently dating. It had been a couple of weeks since she'd been free to go out, and she'd been looking forward to a movie and dinner, and hopefully even a little sex.
As much as she hated seeing a movie alone, she decided that's exactly what she was going to do. After going to the effort of getting dressed for an evening out and getting a babysitter for her daughter, she was going to do her best to enjoy herself with or without Alan.
She strode over to the ticket window and waited in line to get her ticket. As she stood in line and slowly shuffled forward, she couldn't help noticing the man in front of her, who also appeared to be alone. Janine couldn't see his face, but his nicely formed body and tight ass were enough to get her attention.
He appeared to be a couple of inches over six feet tall, with broad shoulders and nicely toned arms. From what she could tell from behind, he had a gorgeous head of light brown hair that was cut into a medium length layered style. What captured her imagination the most, though, was how sexy his ass looked covered by a pair of crisp blue jeans.
Checking out his body, Janine felt a flutter of desire deep in the pit of her stomach. A multitude of erotic images quickly danced through her mind. She chuckled to herself, thinking that she was even hornier than she'd thought.
"Oh, what the hell, I deserve a little harmless fantasy," she thought. Working full time as a teacher and being a single mother of an eight year old daughter, she had so little time for herself. Sex was a rare event, and passion was virtually unheard of. She and Alan had slept together a few times, and while it was nice enough, she had been left somewhat unsatisfied by the encounters. By necessity, the majority of her sex life consisted of the time she spent alone with her toys long after her daughter had gone to bed.
She shouldn't have been surprised that the masculine body in front of her in line caused her to be bombarded by carnal thoughts. She was a healthy woman with a healthy appetite for sex, and she wasn't getting her share.
The man in front of her reached the ticket window, and she heard him purchase one ticket for the same movie she was planning to see. She got a brief glimpse of his face as he turned away from the ticket window, and she was momentarily electrified.
His handsome face looked every bit as good as his body did. He had a strong, prominent brow that slightly shaded a pair of amazing green eyes. He was the fortunate owner of a wide, kissable mouth, and he had a perfectly adorable dimple in his chin.
The man caught Janine looking at him and he gave her a grin that was both sly and friendly at the same time. Janine felt herself blush, but she managed a return smile before she turned to the ticket window herself.
As she purchased her ticket, she was aware of the man still standing a couple of feet away from her, presumably putting his change back into his wallet. When Janine stepped away from the window and moved over towards the snack bar, she was acutely aware of him heading in the same direction a couple of steps behind her.
Janine stepped to the back of yet another line at the snack bar, and the handsome man fell into place directly behind her. Janine swore she could almost feel his eyes examining her from in back of her, just as she had done to him earlier. The thought of his green eyes on her made her shiver pleasantly.
Suddenly, she felt a light tap on her shoulder, and a deep voice said, "Excuse me, Ma'am."
Her breath immediately caught in her throat as she turned to face him. He was smiling at her in that sly/friendly way again.
"Ma'am, I couldn't help but overhear you buy a single ticket for the same movie I'm going to. Are you alone this evening?" Janine was almost mesmerized watching his lips move as he spoke.
"Uh, yes, I am alone. My date stood me up and I decided to see the flick anyway." She didn't know why she told him that she'd been stood up.
"Ah, so there's some foolish man out there somewhere who doesn't know a good thing when he sees it," he said sincerely. "I know this is very forward, but I was wondering if perhaps you might like to join me. I hate watching a movie alone. I would be most pleased if we could just sit together."
Janine's heart began to beat faster. She didn't even have to think about her response. "That would be great! I would sure appreciate the company."
"I'm so glad! My name is David, by the way. David Sawyer." He stuck out his hand to her in a greeting.
She put her hand lightly in his and he gently shook it. "I'm Janine Lewis, and it's very nice to meet you, David." She liked the warmth of his hand and the way his large, masculine grip covered hers.
