Travis was right. Kimmy hated to get out of bed the day after a night out, and would be glad if she didn't have to make the trip to pick up her car.

"Alright then, but let me inform them of the arrangements. Let me tell the guys also. I'll meet you outside in 15 minutes."

"Okay," I said as we parted company to go find our friends.

Fifteen minutes later, we were all outside, introductions were made and we planned our route. Travis dropped off his friends and followed while I dropped of mine. I parked Kimmy's car and we saw her safely inside before Travis and I left.

Pleasurable drive home

The drive home with Travis was pleasurable and we made conversation quite easily. All the way home I was conscious of his presence beside me, but I tried to keep my feelings for him subdued. Upon reaching home, Travis walked me to my door.

"Just want to see you safely in," he said

"Thanks," I replied as I opened my door. "I really enjoyed hanging out with you tonight. It was quite pleasant." I was searching for the right adjective to describe his company.

"Thanks. I enjoyed your company and conversation as well. We must do again it sometime, just the two of us."

I know he didn't mean to make it sound so appealing, but it felt as if he were caressing me with those words. I looked into his eyes while smiling uncertainly and held out my hand to take his in a handshake. I think that I was the one who initiated the embrace; I don't know for sure as my senses seemed to have gone topsy-turvy, but the moment his hand touched mine I was in his arms with his lips on mine. His kiss was sensual and warm and I melted into him like butter. I felt his passion rise and as my temperature rose, I knew that I would take and give as much gratification with every thrust of pleasure that he gave.

It was 5:30 in the morning when I awoke with a start. Travis was still asleep beside me and I woke him. His aunt was an early riser and I didn't know how he was going to get in without her knowing that he had slept out.

"What time is it?" he asked as he jumped up and started to get dressed.

"It's 5:30," I said fretfully.

"Hope I can get in without Aunt Mae noticing."

"Sure hope so too."

Of course, Travis was caught trying to sneak in that morning and Aunt Mae was furious at both of us for our behaviour.

Still enjoy conversations

Travis and I are now married and we have a son. It has been two wonderful years for both of us. We still enjoy our conversations with each other and we take pleasure in hanging out together.

Of course, Kimmy and Mel finally told Travis of the feelings I had upon seeing him the first time and I did confess the whole truth. He sometimes teases me about it, but now I don't feel terrible about my thoughts and desires for him, because I am so deliriously and blissfully happy to be his woman and that he is my sweet, delicious man.
