It was a quiet night to begin with. Work was done for the week, and I was home enjoying the company of Marcie. Aubrey, my assistant and next-door neighbor, and her boyfriend Wes were already headed to the beach again. So, their pool was an option. The thing was I wasn't thinking moonlight swim. I was thinking something a bit darker. It was after a second glass of wine that Marcie looked at me with her beautiful eyes.
Marcie's eyes can be different colors depending on her mood. Tonight, they were more crystal blue. I could get lost in them and have from time to time. It was when I felt her hand on my arm squeezing lightly that my trance was broken. I smiled as I tried to remember where my box was. She looked at me as I thought.
"What are you thinking, Leo?"
"I'm trying to remember if I brought my box over here or not."
"You've brought over plenty of boxes. Mostly with clothes. Which box are you referring to?"
I confessed.
"I had a box that had some cords in them. I had some thoughts today and wanted to play a bit."
"The box with cords? Didn't it have the ankle supports in there also?"
"It did. Wait, that means it's over here."
"You're correct. That's why I was able to use them on you a bit ago."
"Except you hid the box."
Her mouth opened when I said that. Looks like she revealed herself.
"I did. What are you willing to do for me to discover its location?"
I leaned in for a deep kiss, which she reciprocated. We sat there kissing each other for a bit. The mood was a bit steamier as we moved from our dining area to the living room. There I sat on the couch while my bride slipped off the top she was wearing. There was a tank top underneath. She then sat on my lap and wrapped her arms around my neck. I let my hands rub up her leg before I felt her jean shorts. We started kissing again before she looked into my face.
"So, were you thinking of perhaps tying me up with those cords tonight?"
"I was."
"It's been a long while since we did that, Leo. Here's my question. How long did you think it would take for Aubrey to find that box?"
"I thought I had it well hidden to be honest."
"Under you own bed?"
"It had a lock on it."
"Not when we found it."
Looks like I was the one busted.
"I think you forgot to secure it after the last time we used them. That would have been a while before you moved in over here if I remember."
"So, when did she find it?"
A deep kiss stopped the conversation before she stood and led me to the bedroom. As we neared the bed, she turned towards me and started to undo the buttons of my dress shirt. She was focusing on every button deliberately. I was still curious before she pulled the shirt out of my slacks and started to help me remove it. I wore a white tank top of my own underneath. This was also pulled out and taken over my head before she pressed herself against me for another deep kiss. She then guided me until I was sitting on the side of the bed. She backed away a little before her hands were on my knees.
