The thunder and rain surrounded our car, cutting us off from the rest of the world. She was finally in my arms. Her body felt wonderful against mine. ...All my longing for her burst forward and I couldn't take enough of the moment in as I wanted. Our kiss grew from being closed lipped, slowly, almost nervously, to our lips opening up and I felt her tongue touch mine. I couldn't help but let out a quiet moan of longing. She seemed to be moved by my sound, becoming more confident. Her tongue pressed. "She says that's because she met Cindy's Dan first."We're shutting down the house down here. I'm not giving it up. This land is family land. This acre was walked upon by my great-great grandfather. Their first house was here on this ridge and it was wiped out by a hurricane in 1928. They built again, but it was a little further over to the east. There are the ghosts of five generations of Grangers here, with all the trials, the sorrows, the triumphs, the love and the laughter, and I and that. Impatient, her hand slowly turned the doorknob, inching the door forward. Peering through the opening, she saw Tiffany sitting on her bed cross-legged, face cupped in her hands. That brought back memories of the first time she had seen Tiffany like that after a date with Jason and her face reddened and lips pursed."What's the matter?" Nothing." Is it Jason?" I hate him!" What did he do? Did he try something?" No! He didn't try anything!" I don't understand. Why are you--?" Mom, not now! Please. He was at the bar, alone. He seemed to be uncomfortable sitting alone. And then she saw it. The wedding band on his finger. Perfect! He would do nicely. Sue walked up to the bar, right next to him, and ordered a drink for herself. "Lets see if he will nibble at the bait", she told herself. As the bartender brought her drink, the man whispered to her, "May I buy this for you?" Sue was dressed all in black. The silk blouse clinging tightly to her, and the matching skirt, combining to show her.
