It had been almost a year since Jeff had broken up with his last girl friend. The past year had consisted of casual dates, a kiss here and there, a couple dates that simply stayed the night, but no love connections. He hadn't met anyone in the past year that had awakened his sexual desires again. It had almost been one year since he had sex. But that was all about to change.
It was Friday night as Jeff headed out the door to pick up his friend Jade. Jade and him had been friends for almost a year now, and although Jade was married, the two of them enjoyed spending time together, in a strictly platonic way. Jade had been having a rough time lately, and her and her husband had just decided to separate. Jeff thought Jade could use a night on the town, filled with dancing to get her mind off things, as she loved to dance.
He picked her up at 10:00 and they headed out to see a band at a bar nearby. As they entered, the place was already packed. The band had just begun to play and the crowd was going crazy. Jeff walked over to the bar and brought back shots for each of them. "Here's to friendship," Jeff said as they downed their shots.
"Let's dance," Jade shouted to Jeff, as she grabbed his hand and they started working their way up to the front of the crowd.
After a few fast paced songs, the band slowed it down. Jeff turned to head back to the bar to grab another round of drinks when Jade grabbed his arm. "Dance with me," she said looking at him with her big brown eyes. In all the time they had been friends, they had never danced "together." After all, Jade was married. She belonged to someone else. But now that she was officially separated, he didn't see the harm in one dance.
He moved into her as she wrapped her arms around his shoulders. Her hair brushed his cheek and realized how wonderful she smelled tonight. Holding her and swaying back and forth to the music, he felt the heat coming from her body. He felt her heart beat quicken and suddenly something inside him stirred.
