We talked a bit, but mostly just stared into each others eyes, searching, wondering if this was to be all that we had hoped. I wanted her to be as com...fortable as possible, so I decided to let her make the move to the room. It didn’t take long. After one drink, we headed upstairs. Even before the door was completely closed behind us, we shared our first real kiss. God it was sweet. My head was floating higher that I thought possible. She then showed me a half dozen lingerie sets she had bought. ‘Good. I mean, thanks.’ Once again Patti could have smothered Toby in affection, for he put a stop to the awkwardness and put an end to weeks of obliviousness in one fell swoop. ‘Say, Sally Jean, want to go get a cocoa at Sammy’s?’ Sally Jean’s delight was palpable. ‘Yes! Thank you! I mean,’ she paused and looked at Patti, ‘If you don’t need us…’ ‘I don’t, and I think cocoa is a wonderful idea for the both of you!’ Patti reassured her. ‘I’ll see you both tomorrow for dress rehearsal?’ ‘Great!’. Within seconds Ben was behind me.The warmth of his breathe on my neck was intoxicating, "you were watching us very closely." His hands movedvdown my back and cupped both cheeks. I had gotten used to him holding me this way so I lay my head back on his chest as he massaged my bottom for what was to come."Good boy," his fingers dipped between my cheeks and found the lubrication I had worked into my rosebud. I looked up into his handsome face and he proved again I was his toy. He said nothing. " Good," she said, smiling and leaning toward me. "Me too."My heart was pounding in my chest as Courtney leaned against me. I fought the urge to put my hand around her shoulder, content to feel the soft curls of her hair against my cheek. I remember nothing of the movie, all my attentions were focused on the beautiful creature to my right."I had a wonderful time tonight," Courtney said as I dropped her off. I had offered to walk her to the door, a gentleman to the end."So did I," I answered.
