you?” He was still so close to my face, so concerned. His voice was gentle and the smell of his cologne was driving me wild. It was only a couple of inches to put my lips on his, but I had to resist.
“For a time, but I never dated again after that. I found myself turning into the second person I read about. Every man I met I didn’t trust. I felt like they’d all just hump me and dump me.”
“You’re speaking in the past tense,” Ace said. “Have things changed?”
“I want them to,” I said, trying not to look at him.
“What would change it?” he asked.
“The right man,” I said, running my hand across his chest.
“I hope you find him,” he said. The muscles in his arms tightened around me.
“ I got this tattoo to remind myself that I am a worthy person and I need to love myself first. It also reminds me to never give myself to a man without love. Never.”
“That’s admirable,” he said, still very close. I looked up at him, our eyes locking. I wanted to kiss him so badly and I could tell he wanted the same. Nobody had ever taken this kind of interest in me; nobody wanted to hear about my past. I couldn’t believe I confided it all to him just like that, but he was so easy to talk to. I began to lean in, my eyes closing. I was ready for another man’s touch, ready for a man I thought I could fall head over heels for. Our lips met and it was better than I had ever dreamed. Immediately sparks flew as he hungrily pulled me close to his body. My mouth opened and my tongue darted out into his mouth. We remained locked in our lovely embrace with our tongues pushing back and forth at one another. I hadn’t kissed someone in so long, but everything about this felt natural. It was the most amazing kiss I’d ever experienced, and it was with a man I barely knew. Yet somehow, I felt like I’d known him my entire life. One of my hands went up and began to rub through his perfect hair while my other felt the tight muscles in his back. He had one hand on the back of my head, keeping my lips against his. He was rubbing up and down my leg with the other hand, but I made no motion to stop him. His touch felt amazing, and I could feel the juices flowing between my legs. I was so turned on I could have given myself to him right there. There was definitely chemistry here.
“Hey guys! Sorry I’m late!” I pulled away instantly, turning to find Cookie shambling up to the hot tub, a cocktail in hand. I looked back to Ace who looked as sour as I’d ever seen him. My heart jumped a little too, he had wanted it and was upset it was ruined. I could’ve gone to bed a happy woman right then.
“Welcome Cookie,” he said, standing up to greet her. “I must say, you look stunning.”
His compliment was a bit dry and that made my heart smile even more. To call Cookie’s bathing suit dental floss was an insult to dental floss everywhere, this thing was tiny. The only thing covered on her silicon enhanced breasts were the nipples. Everything else was there for the world to see.
“I can’t wait to have some hot tub fun!” she said, climbing over the edge and nearly falling into the tub. “God damn you look sexy Amy.”
“Thanks,” I said, trying not to make direct eye contact with her tits. “You as well.”
Ace settled down between us, obviously a bit frustrated. “So I see you got more to drink.”
“Of course I did! It’s always a party when Cookie is around!”
“So I see,” Ace said, turning back towards me. He rolled his eyes and then turned back to Cookie. “How has your night been dear?”
“Wonderful.” She looked Ace up and down, lust forming in her eyes. “You look almost as sexy as she does.”
“Almost?” Ace asked.
What the hell? I thought. I remembered girls like Cookie from college. They were perfectly straight, until alcohol got involved. Then, for reasons I couldn’t figure out, they wanted to kiss every woman in sight. I had a friend the same way, but I’d rebuffed
