half-heartedly and unconsciously held my breath when my errant foot found its mark at Will’s crotch. He bit his bottom lip as the ball of my foot wandered over his bulge. I could tell he was a good size even through the rough fabric of his jeans. I marveled at my own confidence as I continued rubbing his girth through the thick denim. It was obvious that he was just as turned on as I was. Any doubts about having a torrid affair with him during my stay fell to the wayside as I watched him struggle to control himself while I massaged him under the table with my foot.
I wanted this man, and he wanted me. It was all out in the open now, and sparks would fly as soon as we could politely sneak away from Dottie. The anticipation of it all was delicious.
“You’re in trouble,” he mouthed silently over the table to me. He grabbed my foot firmly and moved it away from his crotch as he shot me a meaningful look. The message was clear– while he welcomed my touch, he couldn’t take much more of it at the moment.
“I hope so,” I mouthed back to him. Dottie completely missed our silent interaction as she continued on about how Will had managed to keep the rabbits and deer out of the gardens.
I could barely sit still for the rest of dinner. In a short while I would have Will’s glorious body at my disposal and I could hardly wait for it. I ran through a silent checklist in my mind while I interjected little noises and one word comments to Dottie as she talked on, just to be polite. I was suddenly thankful for my penchant for high end lingerie; even though I’d been single for a while, it was my habit to wear sexy underthings all of the time, so I could rest easy knowing the bra and panty set I was currently wearing was appropriate for a tryst. I also always kept up with my shaving everywhere, even once bathing suit season passed, so I didn’t have to worry about being ungroomed anywhere south of the belt line. I was ready for Will, and more than willing.
Once we had all finished eating, Will and I cleared the table and washed the dishes in record time. I thanked Dottie profusely for the delicious dinner as we worked to clean up the mess and she sat at the table. Once again I washed the dishes and Will dried them. As he moved past me to put away the serving platter, he pressed himself against me and breathed on my neck for just a second.
I almost dropped the glass I was washing as my whole body roared to life. I thought I was ready for him during our games at the table, but feeling the bulk of him against me and the moist heat of his breath against my skin brought it to a whole new level. I felt his bulge pressed against my ass and I closed my eyes and hissed in a painful breath of longing as I wriggled ever so slightly against him. I heard a soft growl in response as he pulled away and continued on past me.
Dottie’s continued presence was a good thing, I realized. Luckily she was hard of hearing and didn’t see well, so we could play our little games of seduction and she was none the wiser. If not for her, I was certain that Will have taken me on the kitchen table by now. Her company in the kitchen forced us to wait.
Finally, the dishes were done and Dottie seemed to be winding down.
“Well, I best be off to bed now,” she told us as she stood up and pushed her chair in. “You two are going to watch a movie together?”
“We sure are,” Will told her. “We can watch it upstairs in my room so the noise won’t bother you, if you like.”
“Oh, you kids watch it wherever you please. I’m so tired I don’t think much will wake me!”
Will and I bade her goodnight and watched in silence as she shuffled off to her adjoin ing room.
As soon as her door closed, Will grabbed me and pulled me close.
My heart banged wildly in my chest as I took in the heat of his body and his intoxicating scent. I waited breathlessly for him to kiss me, but instead he ran one calloused thumb down the length of my jawline.
