Chapter 4: Southern Dreams - Setting in
Finally there! Sea, sun and unlimited freedom. A place to truly enjoy all the finer sides of life...
The bellboy -- a good looking guy of about 25 - bumped down the two heavy suitcases at the bedroom door in their suit. As he turned against them with a polite 'anything else, ma'am', Mary tipped him off with a small note. Which prompted him over to open the curtains and windows to display a fabulous view of the beach below and the wide horizon of the ocean beyond. The soft breeze immediately grabbed the curtains and started flicking them lightly. Fresh and warm ocean air filled the room, immediately replacing the somewhat artificially dry air from the conditioning unit.
"I hope everything will be to your satisfaction. Enjoy your stay."
As soon as the door shut behind him, Mary and Linda fell in each other's arms. Finally alone Finally together! They held tight for a long moment without saying a word. Then Mary relaxed and looked down into Linda's spellbinding eyes with a snug smile. "I certainly hope so too!"
She felt almost light- headed from joy Happy, relaxed and quite sexy. The unfamiliar uncertainty she had felt before was totally gone. She could still feel a little sting every now and then, somewhere deep inside, but the eagerness and admiration that the girl had shown -- no matter how clumsy she had felt herself -- had given her the comfort she needed to kind of get on top of the situation. From here things could only go the right direction. They would be able to find and develop their relationship exactly the way they both wanted -- and needed.
The girl's arms hugged her skirt- clad waist under the jacked as she rested her head against her neck and sighed. The ardentness of the movements and the light trembling in her breathing clearly told Mary that the girl was glowing hot already. Hot for her! Ready to please a lady!
For a moment she let the girl enjoy the fullness and heat of her body. Then she reached back to grab the hands folded behind her back.
"Linda dear, we should unpack and prepare. We've got things to do!" With a loving smile she freed herself from her grasp and held her hands in her own as she bent slightly to look deeply into her eyes.
"Now you take this suitcase and I take the other. We want everything to be tidy and ready for our first night together, don't we?"
The girl looked back at her with this familiar shyness, now mixed with a light touch of confusion. "First night?"
"You know... first night here. First time --
really
first time - of our new life together!"
She stroked the youngster's cheek with her most tender caress. Then urged her on to start unpacking with a light slap on her behind.
The things were out and in their cupboards shelves in no time. Mary in the mean time made practical arrangements for the flat and inquired about new restaurants and things like that with the hotel front desk. Linda even noticed something about changing some of the chairs in the living room- corner. She couldn't understand why. They looked perfect with generously padded leather chairs and a dark, shiny oak table. But whatever the gorgeous woman wanted, it was fine with her.
Whatever
she wanted!
And the lady certainly knew what she wanted, in every aspect of their relationship. Before the girl even knew it, she had been over in her wardrobe to select a suitable dress for their evening dinner. Just a thin tee-shirt and light cotton panties, nicely matching the light high sandals she had been wearing on the journey.
"You don't need anything more down here, I tell you. It's still hot outside for many hours. And besides we'll be walking just one block down the street. Shall we?"
And her mistress was definitely right about the temperature. The heat met her like a slap in the face as they stepped out into the duskiness of the evening. Cars and bikes roared by with noisy engines. Filling the humid air almost the same way as the smells of all kinds of fries and oils and cheap fast- food that mixed with the salty scent of cool ocean. All of it adding up to the oh- so familiar picture of her childhood summer holiday resorts.
She felt Mary's hand around her waist as she steered her on in the right direction through the milling crowd of people at the entrance. Then the hand sought out her own as they strolled down the street together.
It felt so strange! Here she was, Young Linda Verdale, walking alone thousands of miles away from home, holding hand with a woman in a dainty business suit. A woman she had known only a few weeks, and met just a few times during that time. A woman nearly old enough to be her mother. How could she ever get herself into such a situation? Did she even have the slightest idea what she was doing?
For a moment the old uncertainty came over her and ran a chilling shudder down her back. The same feeling that had kept returning the first days after she had met her. But then it was haunted off once again and replaced by the same calmness she had felt inside for the last couple of weeks. Mary's entire persona was so awesome, so strong and trustworthy that it served to convince her 100% that she had done the right thing. This mixture of anxiety, awe and admiration just served to strengthen the ties that she felt was growing between them. Ties that threatened to make her completely dependent of this fantastic woman.
Her thoughts were interrupted by a tug in her hand as Mary rounded a corner and went up an alley on a somewhat dirty red carpet. The alley was quite narrow with torches on the stone walls at each side, sending a deep light with flickering shadows over the carved motives of some kind of sea- monsters that were draped in an eastern resembling style all around the thick, wooden entrance door to the restaurant. Suddenly the noisy street was quite distant and replaced by this almost oriental mood of mystery and timelessness.
An older, white haired man in a slightly overdone uniform stepped forward to open the ancient- looking heavy door as they approached the front. The way he smiled and greeted her companion told Linda that they most likely knew each other from earlier visits.
Seated at the table she got the nerve to ask. Why shouldn't she anyway? Couldn't be anything wrong about that...
"Well, I've been here on several occasions, if that's what you mean," Mary told her. "Just let's say that this place pretty much is a part of my past. The last few years I've been here with friends of mine. Last year I was here twice with a good friend and associate named Angela." Mary smiled warmly at the young girl as she once again reached out to stroke her cheek; "But now we're here, you and I! So let's have a decent meal!"
Mary ordered some strange looking fish dish for herself, and helped Linda to a light beef in a spicy mint sauce.
They chatted lightly and quite relaxed about nothing in particular for a little while, until the lady sighed and leaned back in her seat, patting her lips elegantly with a red napkin. The silk scarf in her neck was already opened, and several of the buttons in her blouse undone. She smiled again as she admired the sweet, innocent look of the girl opposite to her.
"I don't know if I should be so straight forward, but what the hell! I have to admit I'm so horny I can't even enjoy my meal properly!!"
She leaned forward again, making a sweet display of her bosom pushing forward to almost overfill the elegant bra under the straining material of her shirt. Linda felt a rush of heat through her body as she feasted her eyes on the full bosom and the deep cleft deliciously caressing an elegant little drop- shaped golden pendant.
Then their eyes met again in a long, breathless moment.
"Oh, Ms.... Mary," the girl breathed as a flush of unadulterated desire sent a glowing hot wave throughout her entire body. She put her hand over Mary's. "P -- please... couldn't we just go back to the hotel? I'm really not very hungry... right now." Again her eyes dropped down to admire the fullness and sensuality of the shamelessly protruding bust. Mary tried to push them even further forward for the girl's enjoyment, feeling how the remaining buttons were close to popping any time. A wonderful sensation in itself.
