I had been working night shifts for close to 10 years at this point and like all graveyard shift workers, our sleep during the day is not exactly a beauty sleep. Simply put, the rest of the world does not give a fuck whether you have worked all night or that you need some peace and quiet during the day to sleep. In a place like Chennai, where the weather goes from summer for 5 months to a sweltering spit roast for the rest of the year, interspersed with the occasional rainfall which the news calls a monsoon, it is just impossible to sleep during the day.
So, one of those days, between watching porn and waiting to get up for work, I was scrolling through Craigslist's Personals section to bite some bait. One of those ads, actually connected me to a lady who agreed that she was the one who posted, that it was not a scam, and that she was ready to meet me that afternoon. All of this was within 10 minutes of me going thru the ad, contemplating whether mind or dick rules, calling her and heading to the shower and then calling in sick at work.
She had to come in from quite a distance and it was around 1.30 when we spoke so I asked her if she would want something to eat, because then I would need to get something from a take away. At that time, I was a single, sleepless, horny guy who lived alone, so spartan living and an empty larder of sorts. Thankfully, she said she would come after lunch, and I reckoned tea was something I could offer her at the least.
The doorbell rung at 3, by which time I had done a round of basic housekeeping - swept the floor, moved the clothes for laundry to the machine, set the AC at a comfy temperature, changed the sheets on the bed and kept clean mugs and kettle at the ready. As I went to open the door, I recalled the pictures we had exchanged and she seemed cute, but the lady who stood in front of me was dressed like a biker chic. Jeans, a simple top under a riding jacket, and a full faced helmet resting at her hip. She smiled, walked in, slipped off her shoes, laid her helmet on the couch and turned around to face me with a lazy smile while thrusting her supple chest out trying to remove the riding jacket, while I watched her and absent-minded closed the door behind us. All of this, in under 30 seconds and not a word had been uttered.
I eventually worked up a smile myself and offered a mild "hello", to which she responded equally softly. I had checked her out the moment I opened the door, but got a fair idea of her chest only when she removed her jacket, and my eyes kept dipping down from her face occasionally. Noticing my darting eyes she said, "Am glad you like them. They are going to enjoy the attention."
I actually blushed a little and offered to lead the way to my room upstairs, while she followed me. Seeing the house as we went up, she was surprised that I was staying alone in such a big house and loved the shades on the wall. My room had a mix of Mango Yellow and Lime Green on opposite sides, something very uncommon in Indian houses in the south. There was a single bed on the far end, and a queen sized mattress on the floor where I actually slept. We settled in, offered her a choice of water or Sprite and got to know each other.
When I meet women, even though I know the primary reason is to have sex, I can't bring myself to get ready and excited unless I know the basics about them. As a person. In my opinion, that serves to add more passion in the act and is not just a mechanical motion to ejaculate.
We sat facing each other on the bed, resting our backs on the cot behind us. We spoke for close to two hours, by which time we got to know each other, basics of families, boyfriends/girlfriends and why they were a pain in the wrong place, which eventually brought us down the path to sex - kinks, fetishes and all. By this time, we were sitting side by side, her leg over mine, her head in the crook of my shoulder, my arm around her shoulder and caressing her side-boob, while her right hand was doodling around on my inner thighs, skilfully avoiding my cock and nuts.
All it took for this to get rolling was her to look up at my face, eyes connected, I leaned down to kiss her and in that instant two civilized human beings regressed into a pair of primal animals.
