Patience and waiting. These were things that Emma and Kent had become quite familiar with. There had been the years they had been apart and then two more years of online conversations before they met in person again. Now they had developed a routine of sorts. Meeting every few months. Knowing there would be space between and accepting this was the only way for them to balance their real lives with the moments they took for themselves. They made the most of the time they had in person and online. It wasn't a lot, but it was enough.
Emma was in town with her family and would be staying on an extra couple of days after they left. Excuses about a meeting with a client and catching up with her sister. But the truth was, she was going to see him.
Kent and Emma chatted online, but there wasn't enough time to share every little detail. Nor would they have wanted to. They shared important things happening in the real world, but didn't get bogged down with the minutia. All they had known about today was both of them were busy and their plans together would start tomorrow.
It was a big city. A big convention center. Yet they managed to find themselves face to face.
Emma walked into the building with Kent on her mind. Her husband was flying out with their youngest in the morning and her two adult children were going to their perspective destinations as well. By this time tomorrow afternoon, she would be with Kent. It had been a few months since last they saw each other and she was looking forward to having the type of sex that would inspire her for weeks to come.
She and her family were congregated outside a set of bathrooms in a remote area of the building to avoid the lines of the more centrally located ones. Emma went over to a readerboard with all of the events listed to determine which direction they needed to go. She felt a tug on her backpack purse and turned around to find Kent.
He smiled and cocked his head to the side with a laugh, "Hi."
Had her family been watching her face at the single moment, she was sure that there would have been questions. But the surprise was quickly covered, "Hi."
Emma's daughter approached asking if she had found out which convention hall they were going to. The surprise was then on Kent's face as he realized Emma wouldn't have been alone here. "Hello," Emma's daughter said to him thinking the he and her mother looked acquainted.
Emma didn't skip a beat. "This is Elliot," she lied, "He used to work for Interstate in IT. " Emma smoothly turned back to Kent and made introductions to her husband and three children.
Elliot? Shaking each of their hands in turn, Kent wondered at Emma who seemed to lie without effort. When he got to her husband, Kent looked into the other man's eyes to see if there were any jolt of recognition. The last time they had seen each other was over twenty years ago. But there was nothing but blankness. It occurred to Kent that he was fucking this man's wife whose hand was in his and the man had absolutely no idea. Emma's husband was completely clueless. It was a genuine smile that Kent flashed to Emma's husband. He enjoyed knowing that he had possessed Emma's body and now he was face to face with her oblivious husband. There was a brief image of Emma, naked and writhing on a bed, begging Kent to fuck her that crossed his mind. If only the husband could read his thoughts, he would definitely be in for a shock. It was in that moment Kent decided he had to have Emma. Now.
