MaryAnn was completely engrossed in her notes from that morning's seminar. A glass of wine sat on the table, but that was mostly an excuse to occupy a table. Her reverie was broken by the waitress who sat another glass of Chablis in front of her and announced, "From the gentleman over there."
"Damn it," she thought. "Why can't I sit here in peace? Just because I'm a woman all by myself in a hotel bar doesn't mean I'm a hooker or an out of town housewife on the prowl."
Then her complaining was interrupted, "Hey, young lady, don't act so insulted at a glass of wine. It's really good for you, you know."
"Oh my god, is that you Doctor Jim?" MaryAnn stood up and gave the interloper a big hug.
"Yes, it's me Punkin Boots. The last time I saw you I think you were about to graduate from the big university up north of you. Right?"
"Yep. I learnt to read and write, and got me a degree as a real life Lois Lane, cept'n I ain't met Superman yet. And doctor, why don't you sit down and watch me drink this magic elixir you just bought me."
The doctor waved at the waitress for another glass of wine and sat down. "Punkin Boots." He began.
"Oh doctor! Nobody has called me that for so long. You don't know the memories it brings back."
Her guest smiled and said, "Speaking of memories, you are absolutely as lovely as ever. I hope you don't mind an old man saying so." " "Hmmm I see medical science is not only keeping you guys alive longer, your line would melt the heart of a chaste nun. But keep it up I'm into my middle-years and a widow. I need all the compliments I can get."
"It was purely a medical observation, I assure you Punkin Boots."
MaryAnn gave him a huge smile and asked, "What you doing in town Dr. Jim, and where do you live now?"
"I moved to Portland, Maine after retiring from the Navy and am titular head of a hospital there. Mostly I help young doctors get started and try to keep up with them. I had a chance to come to a seminar and jumped at it. I love Chicago." Dr. Jim paused then added, "Look I know you're also here for a seminar and don't want to get in your way, but if you're free tonight why not join me for dinner?"
"You and Sally?"
"Oh you didn't know? Sally died six months ago. Like you, I have been widowed."
MaryAnn reached over and put her hand on his, "Oh Dr. Jim I am so sorry.
"Thank you but don't let it stop you from dinner. I'd love to have you join me."
"I'll be there if you promise not to tell me fried food is bad for me."
"Six o'clock up in the main dining room on the top floor. Magnificent view. I'll make the reservation."
MaryAnn left the bar walking on air. Dr. Jim was indeed an old friend, an old Navy friend. He and her dad had served together two or three times. She knew that when her dad was the admiral in command of the large Navy base and their ships in San Diego, he had brought Jim along. The two were not only good friends, but Jim had to be a good doctor for her dad to insist on him.
And MaryAnn remembered him as a wonderful family friend with a tremendous sense of humor and knowledge of almost everything. Now she looked at him as a handsome icon. God he was more than handsome. He was practically majestic.
MaryAnn took a shower, then realized she was still way early. She also realized she was being a bit silly. Dr. Jim was as old as her dad. On the other hand she had always had a special craving for her dad. For whatever reason her libido was in high gear. Clad only in her undies she lay down and punched up the adult movie channel. Lots of action there, hardcore action! She saw a white woman getting a sexual pounding by a black guy. Hot action! As she watched her hand wandered down. She traced the outline of her vulva with her finger. with her other hand she squeezed her breast. Soon she was moving her hips to the rhythm of her finger on her panties. Then inside! Oh god, it felt good. She looked at the tube but quickly closed her eyes and imagined a silver haired, distinguished man feeling her clitoris. She murmured, "Ooh god yes, Dr. Jim. That feels so good. Yes I want you."
But, now it was time to go. She stopped short of orgasm, still shaking a bit. She finished dressing, choosing a low cut, fashionable dress. She also took note that it was tight enough to show all her curves. She wanted to look good to the doctor. Satisfied that she looked fine she took the elevator to the top floor and exited into the restaurant.
