he picked up an extra large hadnt had pizza awhile cold pizza for breakfast sounded delicious

Hmm he thought Hustler Risqué    Whawas she talkin about

when he arrived he pulled off to the side of her car so not to impede her when she left

she came out onto the porch with two bottles of beer in her hand to let him in and keep the cats inside

                                                                                                           Got the oven at twofifty we can keep the pizza warm while you freshen up

she smelled good not like the cigarette smoke from the tavern like he smelled
                                                                                   You showered

You said freshen up if I like; I had a halfhour.

So acceptable

The bones threw me, but they weren’t human.

Nah Whales

I thought. Lotsa books, art on the walls, records; I didn’t find your porn stash.

You didnt look hard enough  Maybe when were better friends

You’re not denying it?

Im a healthy American man whose parents tried their damnedest to taint with Catholicism I dig an treasure the female form

Hustler?

he took a deep pull at his beer
                                The double IPAs okay

Yes. I like beers with a bite.

they took their pizza and beers out onto the porch café table two chairs they were liberal with the red pepper flakes and fresh parmesan he grated

she marveled Who keeps fresh parmesan on hand?

I make pasta every ten dayscouple of weeks I like it fresh grated

they helped themselves to seconds

the movie was slipping from their grasp

Take a raincheck for The Hustler Some other time

You don’t mind?

Nah  Im enjoying our conversation Its getting late

We could go inside and curl up on the sofa.

Yah Ill fire up some candles play some music 

she was a little high from the tavern the doubled beers suspended it nicely   

they sat she turned on her hip and put her legs across his lap  arranged her skirt modestly   

they kissed softly
                   some gentle caressing and petting he paid particular attention to the inside of her thighs just above her knees lightly stroked them with his fingers

she mentioned more than once she really liked the candlelight how it coloured the paintings on the wall  flickered on the bones 
           I feel like I’m in a museum. I dig it.

I dig you being here

Maybe you might care for three fingers

she seemed amused she blushed  Excuse me?

Three fingers

she giggled
             Three Fingers? Earlier it was Hustler . . now three fingers

he smiled wires seemed to be crossedpleasantly crossed he couldnt wait to get to the bottom of it

                                                                                                        Yah Three fingers
she giggle
           Three?

Doncha think

Don’t know; I’ve had two.

Then two

It wasn’t uncomfortable.

Uncomfortable
                 he stroked the inside of her thigh  a bit higher up

she was getting antsy shifting her bottom

when he kissed her he gripped her thigh tightly

she moaned under his mouth

it was getting hot in there

when they broke their kiss she gasped a bit

he firmly had her thigh

Okay. I’ll try. Three fingers. I’ll try. You’ll be gentle.

Yes

I know you will.

he squeeze her thigh firmly released it  got his arm under her legs and as he turned her a bit on her fanny so he could stand to get the three fingers for them she asked 
                                                    What, what are you doing? a hint of panic in her voice

Going for the drinks

Drinks?

The drinks
            Three fingers  Whisky

Oh.
     Never mind.

in the kitchen it dawned on him he laughedactually bellowed 

You laughing at me! she cried from the couch

No not at you I cant tell you how much Im thoroughly enjoying you
