Croix. For most of us, things were pretty much normal.The exception was Julie.Julie had undergone a serious rebirthing experience on the island, and c...nsequently had resolved to be a different person. She wasn’t THAT different superficially, but many of her deeper and more fundamental beliefs and behavior patterns changed, especially in terms of how she interacted with each of us and in her attitude about sex.Julie talked about the ‘other girl’ who she’d been, as though she wasn’t one and the. But she wasn't ready, and to force her would destroy her.I got home to an empty apartment; Naltort and Tarmant must have hoped I'd bring her home, and wanted me to have privacy when I did. I called Tarmant's phone, but it went unanswered. I closed the call with a smile. At least they were keeping busy. I didn't begrudge them their private time; in fact, if Laura was 'the one' and she was at all shy, I wanted them in the habit of being able to pleasure each other without my involvement.I cleaned. God, he was hot! He wanted her desperately. For a few seconds, he believed she wanted him as much as he wanted her. He almost lost control, almost walked her to a table and stripped her jeans from her and fucked her! But she had more sense than he. She had gained a semblance of control and moved away from him.Now he watched her jean-covered, round, firm butt as she leaned into the car admiring the computer in the back seat. He sucked in a massive amount of air. Get a grip, he ordered. She's. But I was surprised to see a face, inside, up against a wall, not a window, aglow with the light of a screen in front of it. Shit, had I really missed the other occupant when I peeked earlier? Had my ears not been as attentive as they should have been, and allowed creaking stairs and floor to go undetected?I couldn't tell if it was a man or woman, but it was definitely someone, looking at a computer screen. I didn't want to stare, or even try to sneak away in case the person would think I was.
