She glanced around the restaurant nervously. Glassing clinking, silverware gliding across plates and into the waiting mouths, the restaurant was extremely busy. She was ridiculously out of her element. She preferred quiet, shadowy restaurants or bars. Less likely she would run into anyone there. Not that she cared what anyone thought about her life, it was just easier to not have to explain herself to anyone. She owed zero explanations to anyone, least of all the unwashed masses.
She shifted in her chair, skirt rising up her thighs as she did. She caught a flash of sapphire blue to her right and turned just as he arrived at the table. Dark grey suit, brilliant blue tie, his spicy scent reaching her nostrils before he even touched her, he smiled. She felt her body already responding to his presence. Nothing moved her like a man that smelled as good as he looked.
He flashed a smile and she reached out to shake his hand, after all this was a "business arrangement" and she was determined to act accordingly. He leaned in and put his arms around her and hugged her. Pulling her in close and pressing his body against her, she could feel his hot breath on her neck. Her skin sparked at his touch, and she inhaled deeply, breathing him in like sea salt air.
"Hi," he said "you look amazing." His eyes sparking with mischief, he pulled out her chair again and helped her to sit back down, his hand brushing against her backside as she sat. She heard his breath hitch in his chest. That alone, told her she had hit the mark with the dress. She smirked and looked up at him.
"Hi," she said back and settled into the chair ready to play the game. Typically, these meet and greets were filled with pleasant words, sharing small, banal stories of family and skirting around the reason why they were really there. This one had been different from the start. He had been forthright, open and quite clear about what he was looking for. He was very detailed in what he wanted, needed and was determined to get, not only from the meeting, but from her specifically.
She could feel his eyes slowly peeling off her dress and his hands touching what was beneath, almost like he was unwrapping a perfect gift. She watched his eyes trail down her body, taking it all in and she could physically feel his touch. Inhaling deeply, determined to get her equilibrium back, she smiled and leaned in.
"Well, we finally meet. I must say, I have very much enjoyed our emails and texts these last two weeks. You have a way with, uh, words" looking directly at him, she took it all in. He had sent her a few photos of him in a suit and tie. He certainly hadn't made any false promises about how much she would want to take hold of that tie and pull him in close. In fact, all she wanted to do right now was lean across the table and kiss him, taste his lips and drink him in.
"You look amazing," he said again "wow, I wasn't sure how this would go, but you look incredible. I love that dress. Very sexy"
"Thank you, I picked it out just for you."
The restaurant noise was increasing and patrons were filling up the surrounding tables. She knew what she wanted to say, what she wanted to do. Her mind was racing with possibility and she would feel the tension building in her body. She leaned back, crossing her legs and she felt a shiver run though her. She could feel the heat rising in her groin and she had to shift again. Perhaps she should have reconsidered the decision to not wear panties today. Somehow, she realized that decision was going to bite her in the ass today.
He reached across the table and took her hand in his. The electricity in his touch fired right up her arm and she flinched. Rarely, if ever, did a simple touch make her feel like she was on fire. She sucked in her breath and closed her eyes momentarily as images of his hands on her body raced through her mind.
With a slightly evil grin, he looked at her. "What shall we talk about today? The weather? The latest development in high tech program design? Oh, I know," he smiled "let's talk about how badly I want to peel that dress off you and have my way."
She laughed, her head thrown back, exposing her neck to him. He wanted to lean in and run his mouth across her skin, taste her, inhale her scent. Her laugh was throaty and filled with trouble. He suddenly realized there was no way they were going to make it through lunch.
"We should get out of here" he said, his voice having trouble staying even. "I have an idea, a better idea than sitting in this restaurant and making small talk."
"Oh? What would that be? I thought we agreed that this would be a very casual lunch. We would STAY in the restaurant, no matter what. That was your rule remember?"
"Yes, yes I remember. You're right. What shall we order?" He sat upright and straightened his tie. Clearing his throat, she could see his skin had a slight red shade to it. She knew she was having the same effect on him, and she was going to enjoy this lunch.
"So, tell me, what's your favorite flavor?" she asked grinning at him.
