Chapter four - Second course part 2
Delilah gave off such a good vibe that the more Anna saw her or spoke with her, the more she wanted her. She was still slightly out of reach and that made it all the more thrilling.
Anna squeezed Tony's hand as she watched Delilah make her way back to check on their starters, glancing back fleetingly over her shoulder, eyes sparkling.
Tony watched this interplay with delight. He felt Anna's passion rise and it turned him on. He squeezed her hand back and gave her a warm smile with a slight nod and a wink.
A few minutes later Delilah was back with two long, narrow plates. Five king prawns in a light tempura batter with homemade tartar sauce beautifully presented on one and five small vegetable spring rolls and sweet chilli sauce on the next. Simply and elegantly presented. Delilah knew they liked to share so placed the plates longways between them so they could eat from each end. She placed a hand gently and briefly on Anna's bare shoulder. Her skin was soft and warm to the touch.
They both felt a warm tingling sensation.
Noticing that Tony's glass had gone down a little Delilah took the opportunity to pass behind him to top it up. She let her right hand drift across his shoulders as she stepped back.
"Enjoy your meal darlings, I'll be back to chat soon."
Those little touches gave them the green light they were looking for. Confirmation that she too was ready for the next course.
Simple food never tasted so good. They chatted and teased and shared the dishes. Feet rubbed against calves under the table and sparkling eyes winked and smiled at each other. Glances were stolen across to and from Delilah. Who was seducing who?
Throughout their meal Delilah busied her self taking care of the other diners and some paperwork at her little bar, which overlooked the dining area. Occasionally she glanced across to watch Anna and Tony. Their interactions with each other were a delight to behold. She'd watched so many couples dine together yet these two. Something different. There was this smouldering fire between them that she felt could be fanned up to full flame at will. She wanted a slice of that. Once or twice she caught one of them glancing across at her. It was intoxicating, the air between them all sizzled. They'd opened the door for her and she was ready to walk through it.
They took their time with the meal and were soon the only diners left. Delilah had thanked and dismissed Kerry for the evening. They'd sat and chatted for a while before Tony had popped out to use the bathroom. On his way back he paused by the little bar to chat with Delilah briefly. He took her hands in his and looked her deep in the eyes, "Thank you for such a lovely meal Delilah. Will you join us for a little while before we leave?"
"Yes darling," Delilah purred, "would you like a something else to drink?"
"Two whiskey and gingers and bring something over for yourself on us."
He let his hands linger on hers for a moment whilst holding her gaze before walking back to the table. The warmth of his touch remained on her for a few moments and she let herself wonder what it would feel like to feel his touch against her naked body. She was starting to ache for both of them with every touch, look and tease. It excited and scared her at the same time.
