The Weekend
Chapter One
It was August and I had just spent Friday setting my son up for college in another town. My husband had been with me but he had stayed behind to see his family. I had flown home that night and was feeling the quiet of the house without the two of them as my daughter was spending the weekend with a friend. I can't remember the last time that I was the only one in the house. The following afternoon a girlfriend called to say that she would like to get together for a drink.
This friend likes to get out every once in a while and we always have fun together. One time when we were out these two guys approached us and started chatting with us and buying us drinks. When we started to leave they wanted to go with us. They weren't really our type and, after we faked them out, we had to make a run for it back to her car to get away from them.
It was Saturday afternoon, and all I had to look forward to was the silence in the house till my daughter returned on Sunday evening. My husband had some work to do so was not due back until late Monday evening. It had been a difficult trip as we have teenagers, each of whose needs are a strain on our finances. Even though my husband and I understand, our financial priorities can sometime create a tug of war and put us under stress with each other. This trip was one of those occasions, and with him staying we had not been able to talk and make things good, as we usually do. With such a bleak weekend facing me, and the somewhat frustrated and unresolved mood I was in, I agreed to go out with my friend for a drink.
My husband called me, as he usually does, and I told him that I was going out for drinks with my friend. He was going out with his family so we agreed that it would be unlikely that we would speak again until Sunday sometime.
My friend and I went to a bar in a popular market place. After a couple of drinks we were having a good conversation and a good laugh. My girl friend is very loud when she laughs, and I guess this drew us to the attention of the two men who approached us and started talking. My friend likes a good time and is quite friendly so it was not long before they bought us drinks.
One of them was soon deep in conversation with my friend leaving me with the other one. I was not planning on this and usually try to avoid a one on one conversation in this type of situation, stand offish. Usually the conversation is between everyone, but my friend was really into her conversation with the other man. So, I had little choice, short of being outright rude, and found myself in a solo conversation.
I have to admit that Jim was very good looking with a solid athletic build. He was about 6 foot, broad shoulders and sexy muscular arms. His clothes indicated sophistication but were appropriate for the occasion. By the way he spoke I could tell that he was well educated. Indeed, his positive attitude was refreshing, especially after the past few days I had just gone through. I felt appreciated as he listened to all I had to say without cutting me off or interrupting me. The whole situation felt easy and I felt myself relaxing. The more we chatted the more I found myself warming to him.
As the evening wore on it became clear that Jim had a wide range of knowledge, but more importantly he was able to draw out of me more than I realized I knew.
It was past mid night when my friend excused herself to go to the ladies and her conversation companion went to get a 'last round' of drinks. Jim leaned over and suggested that, although it was getting late, it would be a pity to end our conversation too soon and that after we all went our separate ways he would like it very much if I would come back and continue our conversation on his hotel terrace.
At this point I knew that, in addition to feeling appreciated and relaxed, I found myself attracted to him. He had a warm and sensuous presence, indeed, he exuded sex appeal. He was confident and very comfortable around women and occasionally he had subtlety reached out and gently touched my hand during our conversation. His touch had sent a subliminal message which combined with the booze, which always makes me more amorous, had me turned on a little. I knew what could happen if I said yes, but I really liked his company and was certainly not ready for the evening to end, I wanted this relaxed feeling to last a little longer. I was not ready to go home to an empty house and reality, so I agreed.
After the drinks my girlfriend and I said our goodbyes to the guys and headed to our cars. On the way, my girlfriend commented on how good looking Jim was and that it looked as if we hit it off and were having quite an interesting conversation. Indeed, she said that she could see, by the way he was looking at me that he really fancied me. I said that it had been a nice conversation, and I thanked her for getting me to go out that evening. I told her the night out was just was what I needed.
We got into our respective cars. I followed my friend out and, as she lives in a different area, we went our separate ways, except I doubled back and headed to Jim's hotel.
I knew what I was doing was wrong, as a married woman going to a stranger's hotel room in the middle of the night, but I felt very excited at the same time. What was I doing? I now realized that I was little attracted to this guy. For the moment he had enabled me to escape my reality. It was as if he had thrown me a lifeline. I felt that I really needed this escape and was not ready for it to end. Indeed, I felt that I was entitled to something for myself. Am I really doing this? Am I really this daring? By now my heart was pounding with excitement as I realized what I was doing; going to this man's hotel room and knowing what could happen.
I parked my car and went towards the hotel. Jim met me outside and escorted me to his room. As we walked he would put his hand on my back as he guided me through the hallways. His touch heightened my excitement a bit more. His room had a lovely terrace overlooking the ocean and the moon's reflection sparkled off the gentle ocean waves. Well, I knew he had told the truth about the terrace.
Jim fixed us a drink and we continued our conversation. The atmosphere on the terrace was what the Caribbean is all about, a gentle breeze, the wind making the fronds of the coconut trees softly rustle and the moon, that beautiful moonlit sky, combined with the soothing sound of the waves as they gently lapped the shore was perfect. It was beautiful and took me farther away from my reality. At one point I needed to use the bathroom and Jim led me through the bedroom to it.
I don't know what it was; maybe the nice cool fresh smell of the linen on the freshly prepared bed which had been pulled down for the night by housekeeping, or the fact that I was alone in a bedroom in the late hours of the night with a strong good looking virile man, five years my junior, who I felt wanted me, all I knew was that I felt so turned on....I wanted, no, was going to have this man.
What was I doing? I was a married woman. Had I lost control? What was happening to me? Was I being selfish, after all that I had sacrificed over the years was I not entitled to some reward for myself? In any event, who would ever find out? There was no one that would be looking for me; the house was empty. For the moment I was free, free to do what I liked.
Once I had relieved myself I left my slacks and panties off leaving my blouse on, which now became a micro mini club dress as it barely covered my ass. I left my high heels on and boldly walked out. My heart was pounding and was in my throat as I walked on to the terrace.
When Jim turned and looked at me his eyes just about popped out and they hungrily feasted on me. His eyes looked me up and down and then went and stayed at the bottom of my blouse. I knew that I was turning him on.
I calmly walked by him and sat down in the chair facing him. Again his eyes wandered over me and I could see them rest on my thighs. I knew that he was tantalized and was trying to see between my legs. For a moment he stopped talking and it was clear that he had lost his train of thought. I knew that I had his attention now. I casually reached out and retrieved my drink and started to continue our conversation. As I had retrieved my drink I had also parted my legs and knew that Jim could clearly see that I was not wearing any panties. What was I doing, I was so turned on and the longer I sat there the hotter I got. I have to admit that the whole situation was very exciting.
After about five minutes of struggling to carry on the conversation, Jim stood up, extended his hand to me, and suggested that we continue our conversation in the bedroom.
