What a long week it had been, I was clock watching for knock off time, as a few work colleagues and I were going to the pub for a few Friday evening drinks. The week had been full of client issues, staff errors and miscommunication, and the boss has been pressuring me to get through a mountain of work so we can meet our quarterly targets, and he got his bonus. This would have been completely overwhelming if it was not for the fact I was going on 4 weeks long overdue annual leave from today.
Work life, and life in general has been challenging for the last year, ever since I found out about my partners affair, and I had ended our 3 year relationship.
My name is Melisa, or Mel to my friends, I'm a 30 year old office manager for medium size mining company in Sydney, I'm a brunette, 5"10 and of average build with breasts that I've been told are in perfect proportion to my body. I don't consider myself beautiful, however I get plenty of smiles from men, so must be ok looking.
As I showered, moisturised and perfumed my body, I was feeling excited about an evening out, and feeling relaxed knowing I didn't need go back to work for a month. I have lived a year of hating men, and absolutely no thought what so ever of wanting to be with a man physically or sexually, let alone thinking of searching for my soul mate again. But tonight felt different... I felt relaxed... I thought for the first time about the possibility of getting back into the dating scene, I thought for the first time about the possibility of having a one night stand, something I have never done before. Tonight felt different. A smile come across my face, and I got a tingle in my sugar thinking about it, then a roll of my eyes and thinking 'as if'. However I did choose to wear a sexy knee length black dress, with low cut cleavage, not a slutty cut, but just enough to keep someone interested with the odd peak. I finished off with my black high heels, which complimented my slim legs. Mmmmm I look pretty hot I said to myself as I looked in the mirror. I even felt a little flirty tonight. Maybe tonight could be my night, I even made a pact with myself to be open minded, and not just refuse all advances like I had for the past year.
My work colleagues had arrived just before me and were waiting just inside the front entrance of the hotel. It wasn't a 5 star establishment, but was a nice place with a great atmosphere and I had been here a few times before so felt comfortable. We found a nice corner cubicle near the bar and after getting some drinks, settled in for a good night. A few hours and a few drinks later, with a lot of laughing and dancing, I reasoned with myself that no gorgeous hunk was going to come and sweep me off my feet, and that I was going to go home alone again. A night with my friends was what was most important anyway. And besides, was I really ready to meet a guy???
I needed to pee so excused myself from my friends and went to the ladies bathroom. Feeling a slight glow from the Vodka, I sat on the loo listening to the loud conversation from other women discussing the cute guys they had just met, or how their boyfriends were arseholes. Drunken conversations can be quite amusing... I rolled my eyes, finished peeing, and headed back to my friends.
I was halfway back to my friends and trying to dodge groups of drunk men, when my eyes focused on a man wearing a dark blue suit, white shirt with no tie, who was directly in my path back to our cubicle. He was chatting and laughing to his mate, and his smile was to die for, I felt weak at the knees. I couldn't take my eyes off him and his eyes were now focused on me too. Just as we were about to meet, my girlfriend grabbed me by the arm and pulled me onto the dance floor. I figured he was probably taken anyway, the gorgeous ones always are.
After the dance we headed back to the table and I looked around for Mr Handsome, but couldn't see him anywhere, but I know my stomach was doing tumbles and my sugar... my sugar was getting very wet just thinking about what I had missed for the last year, being kissed and caressed and licked over all parts of my body...
This guy, his handsome smile, muscles and had a chest that I could envisage running my hands all over. This guy was the first guy in over a year that I thought could be tempting. Sure I'd like to meet someone with potential for a relationship, but right now, right this minute, and after a few Vodkas, I just wanted to be fucked.
How could I now make this a reality, a night of passion, lust. I grabbed one of my friends to come with me. We walked up to the bar right in front of where Mr Handsome had been laughing and chatting with his friend. We grabbed some drinks and I told my friend to face me while I put my back to Mr Handsome. I described this guy to her and she peered over my shoulder and spotted him. My mind started to wander, I could picture his hands running over my naked breasts, teasing my nipples while I run my hands over the muscles on his chest. My thoughts were interrupted by my friends voice encouraging me to go and chat to him, make myself known again. I said alright, but I needed to pee first. Yes I needed to go, but the butterflies in my stomach were making me so nervous as well. I asked her to stay there and keep an eye on Mr Handsome while I was gone. I don't think I was gone that long even though there was a bit of a line up at the ladies. I walked back to where she was and found her in deep conversation with a guy who was trying to chat her up, so decided just to head straight for Mr Handsome. I turned to head for Mr Handsome and... he was gone. I looked along the bar, I asked my friend if she saw him move, which she hadn't, so I casually but urgently walked around the bar searching for Mr Handsome. I had my eyes focussed on the male toilets incase he was in there... With my shoulders starting to slump, and with disappointment over coming me, I headed back to my friends.
I decided to call it a night and head for the Taxis, just in case he was there, but again no sign of him, there was no one waiting in line for a taxi, so I jumped in the first one, put my head back into the headrest and closed my eyes and thought about what may have been. I then opened my eyes and stared out the window at the drunken antics happening on the sidewalk, and thought about how bad the traffic was tonight, no one was allowing Mr Taxi driver to pull out into the traffic.
