.. shot?" I asked suddenly.He shot me a sharp look. Then recognition flooded his face. "Oh," he said. "Estrada."I nodded mutely."Jack, forget it," he ...told me. "That was as evil a man as ever walked the face of the Earth. I saw what had happened. We're a lot better off with him dead." Richard, he was blind," I said compulsively. "He had no hands, they'd been blown off by the blast. And I stood there and looked down at him and took his own gun out of his pocket and—" Stop, Jack," he cut me off.. I’d just blurted it out. Somehow, with Lynn… it had just seemed to be ok… to just say it. Lynn pulled back, and her hand came up to touch my face. ‘I understand,’ she said softly. ‘Now..’ Her eyes were half lidded. ‘Because I fell in love with you.’ She looked at me for a moment. Then we kissed. A long kiss, relaxed, comfortable and succulent – one that we never thought about the end coming because it didn’t matter. All that mattered was that the kiss was. We both drank it in and felt it –. But at the same time it was nice to feel like a real woman for a change, instead of just being a co-worker and one of the guys. Finally one morning, Scott came on an unexpected visit and sat down in her visiting chair. She was feeling slightly unsure about how to handle the situation, but he seemed his usual professional self. ‘You know that project I sent you?’ ‘The logging feature? Yes, I’ve read through it,’ she said as he nodded. ‘Good. I want you to work with me on the project.’ She was. Mandi was back……finally. So we arranged a time to get together later in the day after one of his business meetings. Tom travels a lot in business, particularly during the last few months. As a result it had been quite some time since we had enjoyed one of our “nooners”. Realizing how long it had been, I was definitely looking forward to enjoying him again. He arrived right on time and I greeted him “ready for action”…..I was smiling, naked, and in high heals. Not wanting to waste any of his.
