It was a fl...rry of hands and mouths and teeth nipping at ears, neck and anything else that was nippable. I took him by the hand, and said, "Come with me, Honey" and I led him into our room, where I finished undressing him slowly and sent him into the shower to wash away the travel weariness.

Kate got up and went back to the Kelvinator;“Last two, what is one tae do?” Kate announced snapping the heavy door shut with a flick her hip, empty handed;“Sooh, ye like whisky do ye, Ah may have a wee bottle around here somewhere…Wid ye lik’ a dram?”“You may twist my arm on that.” I eagerly accepted. Kate went to the cupboard grabbed a bottle and a couple of glasses, she carried all in one hand and plunked them on the table, I instantly. She even suggested that I could have just bought the damned ship if I had wanted it so badly and I had to admit that she was right.

She was right about that.“No more tricks, okay?” I said. “I know you’re all not my students anymore, but it would still be very frowned upon if anyone knew.”She turned her body towards me.
