All visitors to Earth had to endure a wait on the Moon whose length was determined by the visitor's status and the relative importance of the visit. I... was obvious that it wasn't status or merit that had got Paul on the fast track. Not a single person he'd met on the Moon who'd discovered that he was imminently Earthbound failed to express surprise that it was someone like him who'd been given such preference.Only a fixed number of people were permitted to enter or leave Earth on any one day. "Anything else?" Can you... Can you make changes to my brain?" I asked. I hadn't really been that involved with this end of the research."Yes, but within reason. I can't change your memory orthe way you think, but I can alter chemical and hormonal levels to influence your behavior." Can you... Can you increase my sex drive?" What!?" Dr. Lemount interjected. Dr. Bloom just looked at him and he seemed to reconsider what he was going to say."Yes," she answered."Um, ok," I muttered."How much?". Let’s get this off our chest first and then get to know more about each other later.” She licked his finger, leaving the wetness of saliva to marinate it. Then she asked, “Do you have any protection?” “Always, It’s in my wallet.” Karen was very happy to hear that. She was fine not getting to know his name yet, but to have sex with a stranger she met without a condom was a big no-no. The young man reached behind his pants for his wallet to get his condom out. All through the darkness, he felt. I waved at him and he waved back. I began making a plan to slip over to see him before the fireworks started.We hung out for a while, and a couple of the k**s started messing around with the croquet mallets, a few others went over by the serving tables. There was still about an hour before it got dark enough for the fireworks to start, and I looked acroos the street and got Larry's attention. I pointed toward his yard, and he motioned at me to come over. I stood up and told Julie I needed to.
