Looking out I could see we were over a river and it was better than going down with the ship. I tapped Dickson to get his attention."Let me try to get...these fuckers to jump, get ready," he nodded his understanding as I turned to the four cherries."Okay Ladies saddle up it is time to abandon ship! Lets Go, Go, Go!"I didn't wait for these guys to jump I figured them seeing the vets bailing out would get more activity then nurse maiding could. I grabbed my rifle, an extra ammo bandoleer and bailed. A cocktail before dinner, a couple of glasses of wine with dinner, and I was already working on a good buzz before we even reached the club.We started out innocently enough, another cocktail, a few dances, nothing untoward during the slow dances.We were taking a break when James began his more overt seduction.“Kristi, you have to know how I feel about you,” he said. “You must feel the connection we have.”I knew even then that it was a line, despite my alcohol clouded judgement, but it stroked. “Are you nervous”? I asked“A little” she said.“Don’t lie to me Keri; you’re shaking like a leaf. Are you nervous?” I asked again.“Yes I am” She said as she finally looked up at me.I let her stand there for a moment, looking up at me, anticipating what I might do next. I wanted her to squirm a little and feel the awkward tension that was building up. I finally reached my finger under her chin and raised her mouth up to meet mine and we kissed lightly. Her mouth as dry and cold from being so.
