Deborah was like an animal drinking in the sweet taste of Marlene, lapping trying get as much as she could. Drinking that sweet nectar, she could feel it coursing through her veins. Marlene's body trembled as her orgasm started to ebb. Laying on the bed in the low lamplight a shiny sheen coats their bodies. Deborah holds Marlene in her arms for what seemed like an eternity, the clock said six o'clock in the evening. Marlene's stomach grumbles letting her know that she was getting hungry.
Lying in Deborah's arms, she really did not want to leave those arms, but she knew that soon she would have to. Deborah would have to go back home to Pennsylvania, to her husband.
Deborah must have been thinking the same thing when she said.
"I know what you are thinking Marlene, about me having to go home."
Marlene's words caught in her throat as she spoke them.
"Yes I know you have to go home, and that makes me sad."
Deborah slowly runs her fingers up and down Marlene's arm as she held her close to her, kissing her hair breathing in her scent as if it was the last time she would ever breathe again.
"What are we going to do?" Marlene almost cries
Deborah lies there for moment thinking, "what is she going to do? She loves Thom very much and they had gone through so much and waited so long to be together.
"I am not sure what is going to happen." Deborah said solemnly.
Marlene rises up on her elbow and looks at Deborah with her eyes glistening with tears.
"I know that you do not know me very well and this was not planned by either one of us, if I tell you I love you and that I have loved you for some time then you would think that I was a crazy woman."
"Marlene I do not think you are a crazy woman, and you are right this was not planned. Part of me feels guilty because I asked you to come to my hotel room and part of me feels that I have just cheated on my husband." Deborah spoke as if she had a lump in her throat.
Marlene started to slip off the bed, when Deborah caught her by the arm. "Please do not go, we need to discuss this."
"It is better that I leave and forget this ever happened, even though it would be very difficult for me to do that." Marlene said almost sobbing.
"I am sorry I could not forget this moment, and I know that you could not either."
Deborah held out her arms beckoning Marlene to return to them. Marlene relented and fell into those arms, feeling her warmth and the beat of her heart as she lay her head on Deborah's chest.
As they lie there slightly dozing, the phone ringing shattered the dreamy feelings.
Deborah just thought to let the phone keep ringing and the front desk would have them leave a message, but in her heart she knew it was Thom calling her to find out things at the book signing went and to let her know that he could not wait for her to come back home.
Slowly she reaches for the phone; if she did not answer, he would worry.
"Hello."
"Everything ok Dolly?"
"Thom everything is ok, you just got me napping that is all, the day was very tiring."
"Ok Hun, it just sounded like something was wrong, I am sorry that I woke you I had to hear your voice tonight."
"Baby that is ok, I can not wait to get home, I miss you so much." Deborah had to steady her voice she was afraid she would.
Silence filled the room for a moment.
"Dolly I will let you rest tonight, you sound very tired. I will see you tomorrow when you get home. I love you and miss you." Thom said.
"Thomas I love you very much and I will see you tomorrow, I will dream of you tonight my love."
"Goodnight love." He blew kisses through the phone.
Deborah hung up the phone as if her arm was holding a five-pound bag of sugar, which felt as heavy as her heart did at that moment.
