The warm water of the shower rained down on my head and washed over my body. I just stood there, kind of in my own cone of silence, trying to get my head around the business of the day. There was work to do, but oh, how I wanted to just get back in bed with Rebecca. A little nap, a little nookie.
Nookie, I thought. There's a word you don't hear much anymore. Too bad. It fits right in with the nap.
Nap and Nookie. Nookie and Nap. It sounds so darn playful. Fun. Milk and Nookie. Nookie and cream.
Vanilla Nookie. Chocolate Nookie.
Okay. Too many times listening to George Carlin in my teens. Time to get focused. Breakfast meeting at
7:30. First presentation at 9. Then the shower curtain opened.
"Hey water boy!" Rebecca stuck her head in. "It's been 10 minutes already. When do I get my turn?"
Ten minutes in the shower and nothing to show for it.
"Well, I've been a bit distracted," I said. "I haven't even washed up. Just standing here trying to think about the day ahead but for some reason my mind keeps wandering."
Rebecca flashed a big, beautiful grin. "Ah," she said. "I hope that reason is me. Me... and us. Me and us and last night."
"That. And how much I'd prefer just spending the morning in bed with you."
"Can't do that," she replied. "Too many people counting on you showing up this morning. How about I join you in here and we can talk about what's on your mind."
Rebecca pulled the shower curtain open more and I was once again taken aback by her beauty. Every time I saw her, she just got more beautiful. Her brown hair was still pulled back in a ponytail. Her round face made her look younger than she was. Her brown eyes were bright and happily soaking up the image of my wet, naked body. Her big smile, full of perfectly aligned teeth, coupled with her high cheekbones brought a sense of sheer joy to her being.
This was my first look at her standing naked in the light. She wasn't big. She wasn't petite. She was almost perfectly proportioned. It was the hourglass look, though she was a bit thinner in the hips than across the shoulders. And as I noticed before, her breasts were full and round. The highlight, of course, were her nipples, again at attention, again pointing slightly upward. She was a beautiful young woman, though probably a bit older than she appeared.
Rebecca stepped into the shower, pulled the curtain closed, and grabbed a washcloth. As she soaped it up, she asked what I was thinking about.
"Nookie," I replied.
"Nookie?"
"Yeah, it's a fun word."
"And one with many meanings. What's your definition of Nookie?"
I thought about that for a moment. "70s version," I said. "My generation. Fun, playful sex. How about you?"
Rebecca looked surprised. "You that old?" she asked.
"Ancient," I replied.
"Hmm. In that case, I'm going to have to take good care of you. Whatever miles you got left, I want to ride them. Turn around."
I didn't quite know what to make of that last statement. I was still trying to figure it out when I felt the washcloth on my back. Methodically, beginning at my shoulders, Rebecca began to bathe me. Any hope I had of focusing on my breakfast meeting was gone.
Rebecca was silent as she worked. Her touch was firm. I was not only getting clean, but I was also getting a mini massage. The water fell on my chest. The washcloth worked its way down my back.
I gave in. "So tell me. What does Nookie mean to a child of the 90s?" I asked.
"80s," she said. "I'm the lady of the 80s."
I really liked this girl. I liked the way she handled herself at the bar the night before. She was smart and ambitious. Her verbal sparring was sharp without cutting. Our sexual affinity was high. And, as she dropped to her knees to wash my legs, I realized she was great in the shower.
"Well then Miss Lady of the 80s," I started. "Two questions for you. What's your definition of Nookie and how did you learn to give good scrub?"
Rebecca laughed out loud at that one.
"Turn around water boy," she said. "And I'll tell you."
I complied and Rebecca carefully started washing my feet. I looked down. She was crouched down low, resting on her haunches. She seemed to be compacted into such a small space. Her elbows were close at her side, squeezing her breasts together. I started thinking about fucking her between the tits but then she looked up at me with those large, bright brown eyes.
"Nookie," she said. "Can be just what you said. Fun sex. But where I come from, it was also used to describe a girl's snatch. I was just hoping that if you were thinking about Nookie this morning, it would be mine."
