"Ithink it'll fit." He said and grinned. "Try it on if you like." Ilaughed at his joke but for a moment I thought I saw a look in hiseyes that wasn't ...aughing.Of course that night I got home and tried my new outfit on and wasquite pleased with the results. I already had a pair of shoes thatweren't too high and had thick, chunky heels that could be used for agirl's work shoes and my hair was long and usually tied back in apony tail for work but I spent a good four hours that night.

Absolute freedom." How so?" Fucking."I reached out to hold Emily's hand. Her eyes met mine, and they were happy eyes. She leaned across the table to kiss me. She lingered. Her eyes closed."Mmm."She opened her eyes. I. I could tell this was a big deal for him. He was really up close and personal. And, I had told him I wanted him to touch them." Simone, I can't believe this," Monica said, her mouth slightly agape. "Wha ... what happened then?" Kevin said, 'Do you really want me to ... to ... to touch them?' I told him I really did ... badly. I could tell he wanted to, but he was really afraid that I would change my mind, I think. So, I took one of his hands in mine and placed it on my breast. I swear, his eyes.
