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.

Maybe you might care for three
fingers

crossed he couldnt wait to get to the
bottom of it

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.

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

Going for the drinks
