"It takes a few minutes to work," Lorna said, "then you feel tingly and warm all over." One of the boys" Claire commented, "reckoned that having sex w...ile on a high is the wildest."Taking another drag I wondered when I would next have sex, for a brief moment I felt a little light headed then a warm glow seemed to spread outwards from my groin. Enjoying the sensation I took another drag and watched my daughters settle themselves on the couch, God they were a pretty pair and I found myself. I know that I stand no chance against you. and you quickly catch me, grabbing my leg and pulling me back towards you. You pull me until I'm right next to you. My body is starting to shiver, my skin cool to the touch, as the water against my naked skin is cooling me down dramatically, even with it heated.You wrap me close, and brush my fringe back from my face. Water is dripping down my cheeks, and you squat in the water so you are my height, before simply stepping forward until our lips meet.. ‘I moped and pouted right up until Christmas.’ ‘And then?’ ‘I met my husband.’ ‘Ah,’ David said. She could hear the disappointment and resignation in his voice. ‘But he died last Christmas,’ she said. There was a pause before David took up the conversation again. ‘I’m sorry for your loss. I didn’t marry again myself. I had just been divorced, if you remember.

I look up at the large competition clock on the wall above the deep end of the pool. The minute hand clunks one step further towards half past eleven. As it clunks once more to eleven twenty seven I ease myself off of the poolside and into the water, setting out with a slow breast stroke for the middle of the pool. I roll over on to my back and kick a few times, pushing slowly up the pool.I roll over again and looked at the clock. Eleven thirty exactly. I am almost surprised that nothing.
