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.
They chatted as they waited their turn in line. David revealed that he and his girlfriend had broken up the week before, and he had come to the movies just so he wouldn't have to sit home alone. Janine had trouble believing that a man like this would ever have to be alone.
When they left the snack bar, they each had a soda and a big bucket of popcorn that they could share. Janine felt almost giddy, like a teenager on her first date with the boy she'd had a crush on forever. She was aware of David discreetly appraising her body when he thought she wasn't looking, and it made her feel warm all over.
When they entered the theater, he softly placed one hand on the small of her back to guide her. She liked that gesture. It felt almost protective, like he was subtly claiming her for himself.
They settled into seats on the side of the theater, about halfway between the screen and the exit. Looking around, Janine could see that the theater was not at all crowded, and she was glad. She and David would be able to talk if they wanted without disturbing anyone.
Almost immediately after they sat down, the house lights dimmed in the theater and the coming attractions began to play on the screen. She and David began munching on the popcorn, and their eyes met frequently as they kept reaching for another bite. Janine thought his green eyes looked more intense and infinitely sexier in the dim light.
The movie began, and they set the remainder of the popcorn aside. During the first half hour of the movie, they occasionally whispered to each other, commenting on the drama. She liked it when he leaned in close to say something to her.
Janine was relaxed and enjoying herself, but she couldn't deny how turned on she was feeling sitting this close to this man. Is this what that "chemistry" that I've heard others talk about is like? she wondered.
At that point in the movie, the two main characters became engaged in a heavy love scene. Janine watched the actors kissing and caressing, and slowly removing their clothes one article at a time. Her mind immediately began picturing she and David doing the same things.
As the love scene progressed, Janine could feel herself becoming even more aroused. Her nipples were hard little nubs inside her bra, and she could feel the growing wetness between her legs. Suddenly she had a hard time sitting still.
As the actors on the screen were making love, the theater was filled with sounds of movie pleasure. She could hear the sounds of erotic talk and low moans coming from the theater speakers, and it excited her further.
Janine's enjoyment of the sex scene on the screen was interrupted when she realized that David was staring at her. She met his eyes, and something passed between them in an instant, causing her breath to come in ragged little gasps.
