"Just a little disappointed." "In what?" RuthAnn couldn't tell this woman about her fantasies, her kink, if you will. So she deflected. "Are you here ...n business?" "I'm at a forensics conference." "Forensics. Why?" "I'm a detective. My name is Kelle by the way." "RuthAnn." So the women shared a drink. After about twenty minutes, they repaired to a booth where they ordered another round.

"Carol and Zach both nodded their approval and then Carol gave Zach a motherly look that he understood perfectly and nodded back at her, being the dutiful son.The woman finished undressing and Carol walked up to her and whispered something yet again in the woman's ear.

"I mean, finances and planning the wedding and all that stuff." Not tonight, Lover. Tonight I want you to make love to me and celebrate our engagement. We don't have to go to work tomorrow, so don't rush. Let's take our time and make it last."Well, we have two grandmothers-in-waiting, Ian, and we aren't even married yet," Deb laughed as she hung up the phone.She had called her mother first at John Holland's home to tell her the news of our engagement. I. How about Susan? You said she likes that group as much as you do." Maybe... I'll call you if I decide to go." OK. Look, I'm sorry Lynn. I know how much you were looking forward to our going. I will make it up to you." It's all right Gary. I'll see you later tonight."The disappointment rested heavily upon her. This was the first time in months they had planned a real night out together. She had also hoped for a romantic interlude upon their return. It had been almost two weeks since they had.
