Note: This is a prequel, of sorts, to Blind Date. This is a fantasy that Jo related to Daniel when they were chatting online, and you'll see elements of this story in that one. It also originated with a very vivid and hot dream I had one night...

"This conference is amazing," I thought to myself, silently, as I stood with a crowd waiting for the elevator up. "I have to figure out what to put into practice first."
I felt the herd of people around me, but I was lost in thought and, when the doors opened, I rode the surge of the crowd inside, then turned to face the doors.
The elevator jerked as it started its ascent, and I caught my balance. A hand grazed my elbow from behind as if to steady me and I mumbled the obligatory, "Thank you," under my breath, while trying to stuff my notes away in the crowded car.
Suddenly, I felt something warm on the back of my neck—steady breath, not unpleasant—and realized how tightly packed we were, like sardines. I shifted slightly forward to try and allow more room to those behind me. A split second later I felt the breath on my neck again—and it seemed, hotter? Perhaps. Certainly more insistent as it was accompanied by a hand lightly grazing my hip.
As much information as I'd learned today, it all left my head in a moment as my body reacted—a tingle between my legs, the tightening of the flesh surrounding my nipples, and a sharp intake of breath. Lately, I've been working so hard that my physical needs have taken a back seat, and it was thrilling to feel my body respond so quickly and intensely.
The doors opened, and a few people alit but even more tried to squeeze in. I shifted slightly backward to make room, and the hand that grazed my hip gripped lightly in the same spot. I felt the tell-tale signs of male excitement and gasped—not at all loudly, but with apparently enough volume that someone listening for it would hear, because the person behind me responded by snaking his hand around to rest just beneath my belly button and tilted their pelvis, pressing into me. I thought the contact was solely a product of the crowded elevator, but now I was beginning to understand that this person behind me was taking the opportunity to involve me in his - yes, that was definitely an erection - obvious arousal.
I don't know what came over me, and I simply reacted by arching my back slightly, pushing my ass against him. Even among the chatter in the elevator, I heard a soft gasp. The elevator stopped again and a few people left, allowing more room for the others to shift. I was torn. I didn't want to be noticed remaining pressed up against this stranger, but I certainly didn't want to move either. I glanced right and left, slyly, trying to ascertain if I knew anyone around me, and felt relieved that I didn't. My shyness won out however and I began to shift my weight, only to be met by another jerking of the elevator that sent me grinding hard backward.
I quickly regained my balance and stepped tentatively forward.
"No."
I froze, not completing the step, and rocked back against the man behind me again. One second. Then two. My heart was beating so that it pounded throughout my body.
I glanced up to see the elevator had nearly reached my floor. His hand was now tickling my outer thigh, just below the hem of my skirt, flesh on flesh, and I still felt him throbbing against my buttocks. A ding signaled my floor and I reluctantly, but deliberately, pushed forward to depart the elevator car, feeling his hand slip from my skin, and then I turned to the right beyond the door. Instinct told me not to turn around to catch sight of him, so I kept my eyes ahead. I strode purposefully toward my door, already contemplating what I could do to attend to my throbbing need once I reached the privacy of my room.
I had only taken a dozen steps when I sensed movement in the hallway behind me. Was it him? I was tempted to turn around and perhaps catch a glimpse of the man who had encouraged my rush toward my hotel door, though I was also looking forward to a bit of solitude and the vibrator I'd spirited through airport security. Was he following me? My breathing increased with just the contemplation.
