After the course I was given a week's leave. I hadn't been home since before the Belfast deployment, and I hadn't had a shag since the night of leavin... Annalise. To say I was horny and randy would be an understatement. I was ready to jump on a passing frog, if it had stopped hopping for long enough.I wasn't holding hopes of any sexual shenanigans when I went home to see Miriam. Although we now were back in contact it would be some time yet, going on past experiences, before we attempted any. “No” she said, without looking at me. “Are you sure?’ I said, eyeing her suspiciously. “Im sure, why, do you guys not want anyone to know?” she asked. “Basically yeah, she has a boyfriend and all that.” Hailey looked up at me for the first time. “I don’t have a boyfriend.” She said. “Well you’re a little young for me,” I said jokingly and turned to leave. “Wait,” she yelled, and I turned back. “I saw the way you looked at me the other day, it’s the same look you are giving me now” she said, and.

By early evening I was beginning to feel peckish and as there was no food in the house I decided I would go into town to eat.I caught a bus into the town centre. The bus was jammed full, standing room only. Some guy, well I think it was a guy, touched my rear and for a moment the hand tried. She despised cigars. ‘Yes. I’m told that if I spend twenty-four hours with you, you will correct my husband’s idiocy.’ ‘I don’t think ANYTHING can correct your husband’s idiocy, but I will correct this particular idiotic act of his,’ Dexter smiled pleasantly. Julia nodded. ‘And there are no expectations of any kisses or fondling or anything else of an inappropriate nature?’ ‘You set the rules on what we do while we’re together.’ She was quiet a few moments, weighing whether he could be trusted..
