Oh, Jesus. This doesn’t bode well.
‘So when you say you like to take your time, how much time are we talking here? Like six dates? Five, or maybe evenfour?’ I said hopefully.
‘I don’t think it’s something one can put a firm number on,’ he replied. ‘It’s just when it feels right. When the moment is there.’
Did that mean I’d have to spend another three weeks waiting to see if he’d like to go to the next stage? I didn’t want to force him as clearly that wouldn’t be right, but I was so sexually frustrated. Perhaps if he was being a gentleman, he also just wanted to feel sure that I was comfortable with him going further? Yes. Maybe that was it.
I uncrossed my legs and then crossed them again seductively, à la Sharon Stone inBasic Instinct(except my knickers were unfortunately still on), tilted my head and fluttered my eyelashes and leant forward.
‘Charlie, you’re a very handsome, smart and kind man.’ I leant further forward. ‘And tonight, I want to feelcloserto you…’ I tilted my head and as my lips gently pressed onto his, I could feel him freeze. ‘Relax and kiss me,’ I pleaded, briefly pulling back and staring into his eyes. ‘Please. If you want to, of course…’
This time he leaned forward and kissed me.
Halle-fucking-lujah!
So we werefinallykissing. His lips were soft. He was very gentle at first, and then he started trying to pick up the pace by nibbling my ear and kissing my neck. His hands even started to wander.
But…
Houston, we have a problem.
He seemed to be doing all the right things, but…I don’t know how to describe it. From my side, there just didn’t seem to be anything there. Nothing washappening.
Don’t get me wrong, if he kept doing this for long enough, I was sureeventuallyI’d start to feelsomethingdownstairs, but there were no fireworks. There was no…I don’t know?Passion? Spark?
Shit. And this was what I had been craving for weeks. And now I had been forward and initiated things and he was really getting into it. His hands were stroking my legs and he was nibbling on my neck like a squirrel that’s just fallen headfirst into a Nutella factory, and I was feeling nothing!
He gently eased me down backwards on the sofa, his eyes filled with lust and desire.
What happened to all thatintimacy needs to be treasuredandI want to take my timestuff from five minutes ago?
So now you’re upset because he’s doing what you wanted? Relax and focus, Sophia. You haven’t had sex since the dinosaurs walked the earth (well, proper sex anyway. Vincenzo didn’t really count). This is your chance. Just do what they did in the olden days and lie back and think of England.
It’s because you’re overthinking rather than paying attention to what’s going on in front of you. You have a handsome man who is smart and kind on top of you, and he seems like he’s up for some hanky-panky, so what are you waiting for?
Yes, Reasanna…I can confirm that he definitely is.At least I could safely report back to Roxy that a) he was not gay and b) evidently from the rod that was now firmly resting very close to my inner thigh, he wasveryhappy to see me.
‘Oh, Sophia, what are you doing to me?’ he said, stroking my face gently. ‘I hadn’t planned for this to happen. I wanted us to take our time, but you—thenyoustarted kissing me, and your lips are just so soft and delicious and irresistible. I can’t help myself.’ His fingers then began circling my nipples. You could tell he couldn’t wait to remove my dress and bra to gain full access. ‘I’m sorry,’ he said, pausing again. ‘Of course, if you prefer that I stop, please do say.’
‘No! No,’ I said enthusiastically, trying to convince myself. ‘I want this, Charlie, I do.’
Yes, I do. I do. Come on. I can do this.
The moment those words had escaped my mouth, he launched at me again. Kissing my lips, then my neck, then he paused whilst he unbuttoned the top of his shirt and pulled it over his head.
A flashback of luscious Lorenzo with his gorgeous olive skin, hairy chest and firm abs flooded my brain. With his pale chest and slightly rounded stomach, Charlie’s physique was certainlydifferent. That said, considering he probably spent all day eating cakes and biscuits, I guess Charlie was in good shape.
Stop it, Sophia!Reasanna piped up again.
Looks aren’t everything. Charlie’s a good man, and you’ve been bleating on for weeks about wanting some action. Now it’s right in front of you, and you’re spending all your time thinking rather than grabbing the opportunity with both hands.
Yes, okay, Reasanna. This might not be ticking the ‘experience passion’ box on my MAP list so far, but it is part of point number seven. I should be embracing this.
‘Oh, Charlie, I want you,’ I said, deciding to throw myself into it.
‘Oh, Sophia,’ he said, looking so high on lust I thought he was going to pass out. ‘I want you too. Come. Let’s go upstairs.’
He took my hand and led me up to his bedroom.Looks like I am finally going to get some action!
