So we skipped an afternoon meeting and fucked."And when I say we fucked I am not just using an obscene word I don't usually use. It describes best wha... we did. We did not make love. After we were done he gave me his business card with his home phone and we said bye. I said I don't plan on continuing this. He said he knew, but if I ever wanted to get in touch with him, I would have it."We were in my room this time, so he dressed and left. I cleaned up, changed and went to a last meeting. I felt. The rest of the ward was mostly empty, except for a couple of sleeping forms on gurneys near the nurse's station. I was mostly alone in my corner of the room. Turning back to the nurse, I noticed she was lightly chewing her lower lip in a thoughtful way as she looked at me. Now, I'm not a really handsome guy, I mean I'm not ugly either, but I'd never been looked at by a woman in quite this way before. She saw the look on my face and became all business again.I spoke first, but it came out. She stood and held Bill's arm as they left the office and headed for Bill's car. He helped her into the seat and after closing the door, moved to the driver's side. He pulled carefully out into traffic and headed west down the boulevard. Zena looked at him in surprise."I though you were taking me home," she said."I am. I just didn't say whose home," he smiled. "I think you'll be more comfortable at my place and anyway, I wanted to introduce you to Junior. Then, I thought I would invite my folks. We dropped our anoraks and bags off in our bedroom, and I asked Julie if she wanted a cup of tea, expecting her automatic 'yes'. Her actual response caught me by surprise."Normally, lover, I'd say yes so quickly that you wouldn't need to ask the question! But as my period starts this weekend, and the girls downstairs are going to be out for a while, just this once I'll miss out on the cuppa, in favour of a trip to the half landing bathroom and a reminder of how useful the radiator is!"Well, I.
