September 28th. Daylight. The monsters have overtaken the city. Somehow…I'm still alive…

'Perhaps that's too harsh…' thought Terry Walker, staring at her most recent journal entry. The newcomers to the lab threatened to take Terry's job but to no avail. Their intensely competitive nature caused her to regard them as ruthless monsters. Yet, with her easygoing character, she managed to survive and keep her job at the research facility, because her dream, after all, was to find a cure to diabetes, and she was absolutely unwilling to let anyone get in the way of her goal. On reflecting on her experiences in her various internships at various research facilities, Terry felt that the Umbrella Corporation was one of the very few places where her dream could be realized.

'Enough,' thought Terry. She did not want to ruin her day with thoughts of her cutthroat coworkers. Her heart fluttered slightly as she remembered her plans for the day. Today was the day she would see Allan again. She envisioned him and could not help but smile. Allan Finley was a handsome and tall blonde man in his late thirties whose self-assuredness was the quality which immediately attracted Terry to him.

Sure, she was always attracted to older men, but she never had the courage to date one. Yet, today was the day she decided to spend the night with him.

Terry glanced at the clock on her bedroom wall and was delighted to see that it was time to get ready for her date. After a refreshing shower, she quickly got dressed and left her apartment.

As she turned on her car and began to hear the fourth song of her favorite Trance CD, Terry's heart fluttered once again. She always felt giddy when she was on her way to meeting him. But the feeling was especially intense on this occasion because of her decision to take the next step in their relationship.

Terry had pondered this for weeks, finally choosing to give in to her desires this night. She was a bit nervous because she knew that she had little experience in seduction. Nevertheless, her mind was made up. 'Tonight will be the night,' she thought as she pulled up into the parking lot of their usual meeting place. After shutting off her car, Terry took a deep breath in a futile attempt to calm her nerves and her racing heart. It was time to meet the man with whom she wanted to make her sexual fantasy a reality.

The young dark-skinned brunette entered the establishment and was greeted by the usual smell of alcohol and cigarette smoke. The bar was not a place where Terry typically liked to socialize but eventually came to appreciate its significance. It was in this place that she and Al had met for the past two months to go on their various endeavors. It was necessary for their meeting point to be far from the research facility where Terry worked because Al was also employed there. The usual rules prohibiting fraternization did not deter the almost immediate attraction between Al and Terry, who first met during a seminar at the facility. Since their initial meeting, they had gotten to know each other while on trips to various nightclubs, arcades and movie theaters.

As Terry made her way through the bar, she quickly realized that Al was not there yet. The young woman was not worried, as she was aware that Al usually liked to make a grand entrance. This time was no different. After she had settled in and ordered her usual Coke, two hands swiftly wrapped around her waist and a deep masculine voice greeted her with the words, "Hey, sexy."

"Hey, yourself," replied the young woman. Terry was never one to come up with sly remarks, so she didn't bother to try.

"Are you ready to go?" asked Al. "Let's do it," answered Terry. They had already decided beforehand that they would venture to the movie theater to see their favorite type of film, a gory action flick with no coherent storyline. This allowed Terry the opportunity to come up with the best possible way of inviting Al to spend the night with her.

More than halfway into the movie, Terry was surprised to find Al's arm around her shoulders. Aside from their greetings and their goodbyes, Al and Terry did not overtly express their affection for each other. They never found much use in public displays of affection. Nevertheless, this did not prevent them from knowing how strong their feelings were.

Terry gently placed her head on Al's shoulder and her heart began to race once again. The protagonist of the film made his grand entrance into the enemy's lair which signaled that the end of the movie was near and Terry still had no plan. She began to doubt that Al would want to spend the night with her. Terry was sure that he had more experience than she did and worried that she would turn out to be a disappointment.

As they made their way to the parking lot of the movie theater, Terry decided to act on impulse. "Allan?" Terry asked somewhat timidly. "What's up?" asked the tall blonde man. His intense gaze melted away any confidence Terry managed to muster. "Um, I was wondering…I'm having some trouble with this report I have to submit next week…could you come over and check it out?" 'Oh God, why did I lie?' thought Terry. Indeed, she had to hand in a report to her superiors, but she had already proofread and finished it with no doubt concerning its adequacy. "Sure, I'd love to," replied Al. He was somewhat curious about Terry's request but was also eager to see her home.

On the way to her apartment, Terry nervously pondered her courses of action once she would reach her home. 'Should I tell him that I lied about the report or should I show it to him anyway?…What would he think about me lying to get him to come over?…Will he leave once he finds out?' These were some of the myriad of thoughts racing through the young woman's mind.

Once they had reached her apartment, Terry decided to stall to come up with a strategy. "Why don't I give you the grand tour of the place first?" she suggested. After taking his jacket, Terry showed Al around her home, hesitating briefly before showing him the bedroom.

Once the tour was over, Al remarked with a smile, "You have a beautiful home." 'Oh God, you're going to make me do all the work,' thought Terry as they walked back towards the living room. "Thank you," replied Terry. How she longed for Al to take her in his arms without a word into her bedroom and give her the night of her life.

Her heart sank because she knew that Al was very much work-oriented and was primarily focused on helping her with her report more than anything else. She decided to tell him the truth and hope for the best. "Look, Al…I'm sorry, but I lied to you about the report. I didn't want you to come to review a report that I made. I wanted to come because…I…want to be with you…tonight." 'There it is,' thought the young woman, 'I said it.'

Al smiled. Her shy honesty was one of the qualities which had endeared her to Al. "Darling, you didn't have to make up that story. To be perfectly honest, I've wanted this for some time now, but I was also afraid to ask." The blonde man looked away from her and laughed quietly to himself. "It's been a while since I've been this nervous," he stated softly. He turned towards his young lover and pulled her close to him; her heart raced once again. "And it's been a while since I've felt this way." Then he moved slowly towards her until their lips were united in a passionate kiss. Always in favor of multitasking, the two successfully managed to migrate to the bedroom and take off the majority of their clothing while still locked in a loving embrace. Before long, Terry was laying on her bed in her underwear while Al lay on top of her in only his boxers which did a poor job of camouflaging his aroused state. Terry was also impressed by the definition of his chest. Al surprised and delighted Terry with his aggression in removing her bra and her panties. "My God, you're beautiful," whispered the blonde man, thoroughly amazed by the raw beauty of his naked lover. Al then proceeded to commence a trail of kisses which began at Terry's neck; the young woman responded by releasing soft moans of pleasure. The blonde man stopped just above her entrance, causing Terry to look at her lover with a curious expression. Al responded with a seductive smile and began to taste what she wanted him to savor. Terry gasped as she realized firsthand that Al knew how to please her. It did not take long for the two lovers to become consumed by the desperate need to be united. Thus, Al, no longer capable of withstanding the separation between himself and Terry, immediately climbed on top of his young lover and entered her. Sheer ecstasy enveloped them both as they experienced the greatest pleasure they had ever known. The air was filled with the sounds of Al's heavy breathing, Terry's gasps and her screams as they moved, touched, caressed, kissed, and learned the mysteries of each other, finally climaxing in a volcanic burst of pleasure which left them both greatly satisfied and in a state of awe.

Once the two lovers began to recover from what they had just experienced, both silently decided not to ruin the moment attempting to come up with words to say to the other. The two lovers were at a loss for words. Thus, Al kissed Terry's lips once more and held her in his arms until they were both fast asleep.
