Knowing what might happen here would be a traumatic blow to my adolescent development.”She laughed. “Give me a break!”Jack said, “Wow! That wo...d-of-the-day book is really paying off!”“Out, all of you. I want to change.” I had flown home in a DCU. I needed to change into something that didn’t remind me of the Army.Jack showed me where my clothing was hidden, and they all took off. I scrounged up some clean clothes and dug out my toilet kit, and then streaked down the hallway to the bathroom.. I need to see you, though."She agreed to stop by my apartment in a few hours.And she did, shortly after eight.I served her a wine cooler and continued to drink my Merlot."You don't have a boyfriend, do you?"She blushed and endeared herself to me even further."No, why?" I'd like to be yours." Why do you say that?" Because, I'm rapidly getting really crazy for you."She laughed. "You don't know me." I do. We've done our share of talking when we're not talking about your writing assignments. I know. "Come on love, it's not like they're complete strangers. Anyway, Martin and I are topless too. Another couple of hands and we'll all be in the same boat, won't we?"Charlie made a few more feeble protests, but at last she gave in, though not in quite the way I'd expected. Steeling herself with a big sip of wine, she carefully removed her knickers and sat with her legs tightly crossed, eying us triumphantly. As she'd realised, with her sitting like that we couldn't see much, although it was quite. Finally, it happened on a Monday morning.My husband had left for his office well before 8 AM having neglected for a week the needs he had brought me to expect from a man. I lay in the warm scented water of my bath, my fingers lightly soaping my young skin, smoothing soap over my tummy, my breasts and in my most intimate area, tingling to the feel of my own touch.I stopped. I must not do this. "Ohhh husband that you neglect me and leave me like this" I thought. Angry with myself for almost.
