CHAPTER 2
As Lainie and Brian dried off after their shower, she watched him with loving eyes, and her mind drifted. He had been her sweetheart in high school, and he still was the love of her life, but there had been a space of nine years that they hadn't spoken to, or seen each other. Both had married other people and were living relatively happy, if not fulfilling, lives. Three years ago, that all changed.
On Lainie's computer one day was an e-mail from Brian. She hadn't thought of him in forever, but seeing his name in print, the subject a simple 'Hi, how are you?' made her heartbeat increase to double-time and her hands shake over the keyboard. She inhaled deeply and opened her mail.
It was an innocent enough correspondence. 'This web site popped up telling me I could check out the people from my high school, so I did, I saw your name and here I am. How are you doing these days?'
Pretty simple, pretty generic. It turned out to be pretty damned interesting and exciting in the end.
Lainie thought back to the months of e-mail correspondence, then to the night they agreed to meet at a tavern that was equidistant between them. That night changed their lives. Chatting on the computer had gotten them both thinking that maybe the old sparks were still there. Seeing each other in person only served to confirm it. The electricity was strong, and the sexual tension palpable. By the end of the evening, they were both certain that they belonged together.
The ensuing year was hell on both of them. They carried on a secret affair for five months, meeting when they could, e-mailing and long conversations on the phone when they couldn't. Finally, unable to take the lying and deception any longer, they told their respective spouses about the affair. Brian's wife took the news a little better than Lainie's husband, but neither took it well. In the end, they were both divorced and starting over- together.
"Lainie? Hello? What are you thinking about, you're a million miles away?" Brian touched her arm gently, caressing her dewy soft skin.
Shaking her head Lainie looked up at Brian, and a brilliant smile spread across her full sexy lips, "Only three years away, my love, only three years." She wrapped her arms around his waist and tilted her head up, asking to be kissed. Brian obliged happily and lowered his head to devour her waiting mouth. "Mmmm", she purred as they broke away, " I will never get tired of kissing you."
"I would certainly hope not." Brian laughed as he padded barefoot and naked into their bedroom. "Now come to bed."
CHAPTER 3
The following three days went by quickly and Saturday morning Brian awoke to the sounds of Lainie singing slightly off key from the bathroom. Laughing at her lack of singing ability, he nudged open the door between the rooms and watched her apply mascara to her beautifully long lashes. Leaning against the door jam, he started to sing along with her.
Startled, Lainie jumped and then laughed, embarrassed. "You shouldn't sneak up on people."
"And you shouldn't sing when people can hear you." Brian laughed. Her inability to carry a tune was an old joke between them. "Are you ready to be pampered all day today? That new spa sounds like it has everything you could ask for."
"Yes, I'm ready. Michelle is picking up Sarah at ten, and then coming to get me. What time should I be ready and 'dressed to kill', anyway?" Lainie still had no idea what Brian's plans were for her birthday, and she was very curious.
"I'll pick you up at six o'clock in the lobby. Be sure to wear whatever makes you feel special and sexy. Its your day." With that Brian ducked back into the bedroom, closing the door behind him. He knew if he stayed, she would try to get more information out of him, and he didn't want to be tempted.
Lainie thought about what he had said. Wear what makes her feel sexy. She could do that, she thought to herself. As she finished applying her mascara she heard the faint click of the bedroom door closing. Brian had gone down stairs to make coffee and grab the daily paper. She slipped out of her robe and padded into the bedroom. She knew just what she was going to wear tonight, and she set about getting it together and packing it in her carry-all. Looking at her watch she hurriedly finished getting dressed and ran down stairs.
Brian handed her a cup of coffee as she placed her bag by the door. As they drank their coffee, Brian pretended to read the morning paper. He was actually thinking about Lainie's birthday surprise and how much she would enjoy it. Luckily for him, it was a gift they both would enjoy.
Just thinking about the details gave him a massive hard on that he had to cover with the Sports section. He silently wished Michelle would hurry up and get here, he had a lot of work to do before this evening.
A horn blasting in the calm morning silence granted Brian his wish. Lainie jumped up and rinsed out her coffee cup. Kissing Brian on the cheek, she coyly whispered in his ear, "I will see you tonight, my prince. I will be waiting and ready for you, feeling sexy and very curious!!" She blew softly in his ear and left before he could reply.
Laughing as she closed the door behind her, he removed the Sports section from his lap and rubbed the tent in his shorts thoughtfully. He briefly thought about taking care of the bulge in his hand, but decided that he needed to get a jump on the final preparations instead. "Save this for tonight", he thought as he stood and stretched his long muscular body and began to plan his day.
Brian had a few places to go before he picked Lainie up at the spa, and one of them was the adult gift shop. He wanted everything to be perfect, tonight would be a first for Lainie. He knew it was one of her wildest fantasies, and he also knew that it was one she never would expect to come true.
