Dinner is a marvellous success and when the couple get back in the car they are both perfectly content with the evening. Both, however, are wondering about the rest of the night and wondering whether spending the night together would be pushing things a little bit. They arrive at Betty's flat and go in for drinks. "What can I pour you, Stephen?" Betty asks as she pours herself a gin and tonic.
"Oh, whatever you're drinking is fine; I'm not picky." Stephen says as he takes off his suit jacket and settles onto the sofa.
Betty comes over and hands Stephen his tumbler and tucks her feet up on the sofa the way she always sits. She has curled into Stephen so naturally that neither person feels uncomfortable and as naturally as anything Stephen drops his arm around Betty's shoulders. "Well," Betty says looking up into Stephen's wonderful blue-green eyes.
"Well, what?" Stephen asks as he slips off his shoes.
"What now?" Betty asks as she sighs and takes a large sip of her drink. She is nervous of what could happen. She's been alone for too long.
"I'll be honest: I don't know. I've been thinking a lot about the rest of our evening and whether it would be appropriate to spend the night and whether it would be comfortable for both of us, but I haven't come up with an answer yet." Stephen says as he sighs, puts his drink down, and runs his fingers through his short hair.
"I wouldn't mind if you stayed, Stephen." Betty says quietly. "It would be nice as a matter of fact because both of us would finally be appreciated."
"Really?" Stephen asks. "I don't want to push anything. I never thought that I would hear you say that on the first date. It would be wonderful to be appreciated and loved again. I don't have any pyjamas with me though."
"Whoever said you would be needing pyjamas?" Betty asks cheekily. "Maybe I prefer men in my bed without pyjamas. Maybe we'll both end up in bed with no clothes on anyway. Did you ever think of that?"
"Of course," Stephen says awkwardly. "I didn't want to be presumptuous though. Perhaps having someone's arms around you all night was all you had in mind. How was I to know what you meant?"
"Maybe this will give you a clue." Betty says firmly. She leans up to Stephen's lips and gives him a warm, sensual kiss. She winds her hands into his hair and refuses to let go until she has to breathe. "Does that make it obvious?" she asks as she pulls away.
"That makes it blatantly obvious. Nobody could misinterpret that move." Stephen says as he pulls Betty closer to him and runs his tongue along her lower lip hoping she would grant him access to her luscious mouth.
Betty responds quickly to the kiss that is unlike anything she has ever experienced before. She reaches up to Stephen's tie and loosens it enough to give him some more air capacity to allow the kiss to continue.
Suddenly, after this action, Stephen pulls back and looks at Betty with intense eyes. "Are you absolutely sure about this? I don't want you to regret this in the morning, after all a few hours ago you wouldn't even let me touch you. The progression seems to be rapid. Tell me the truth."
"I'm positive. I wouldn't have initiated this if I wasn't certain this was what I wanted. You'll find that once I make up my mind I'm a very determined woman outside of work as well. As long as you're in this world I will love you; that will never change and for the moment you love me back. Let's take advantage of the situation while we can. Stephen listen, I love you enough to throw my inhibitions to the wind because I know that you will always do what you feel is right whether or not the other person does. I trust you enough to let go of my fears." Betty says as she moves over and sits in Stephen's lap which makes him very uncomfortable, but very happy.
"I see as usual you're thinking one step ahead of me. I know you're determined; trust me when I say that I'm not used to being so aggressively pursued and seduced, but damn, it's working. What do you mean for the moment? I'll always love you and I trust you too." Stephen says reaching out and touching Betty's hair.
"I just thought that you might not always feel like this about me and I don't want to miss out on this opportunity. I'm glad my femininity and wiles are finally working on someone. It's been a long time since I've been able to say that; at least about a man equal to or younger than me." Betty snuggles into Stephen's body and waits for his next move.
Stephen has decided that the time for words was past and he reaches down under Betty's head and tilts her head up towards his. He bends his head down and engulfs Betty in a kiss. "Shall we continue?" Stephen asks as he pulls back.
Betty in the mean time can't breathe so she merely nods and reaches out towards her boyfriend. She slides the knot of his tie down low enough to slip it over his head and then slides in towards Stephen. She reaches out and draws her fingers down Stephen's chest and starts to unbutton his dress shirt. "Hold on you," Stephen says as she starts to unbutton his shirt. "How is it that you're still fully dressed and I'm about to lose a second piece of clothing."
"One: a tie doesn't count as a piece of clothing and two: you're wearing more pieces of clothing than I am. Besides, it's not as if you're trying to take any of my clothes off. You don't have to be so shy, you know. It's certainly not as if it's my first time; it's just our first time together as a couple. You're not frightened, are you?" Betty asks as she continues to unbutton Stephen's shirt.
Suddenly, Betty gets the distinct impression she isn't in control as much any more. Once Stephen's shirt has been removed he reaches out to her waist and pulls her under him where he unbuttons her blouse and continues to kiss her. "Hmm, you may have to wear a higher necked blouse tomorrow because I seem to have given you a rather nice love bite."
"Does it look like I care at the moment?" Betty asks as she reaches out to Stephen and removes his belt and starts to unbutton his pants.
"Hold on let's move into the bedroom before we continue. I wouldn't want you to have a crick in your back tomorrow; it's difficult to work on your feet all day if you have a sore back." Stephen says as he picks Betty up and walks into the bedroom.
"Would you stop rationalizing every little thing and just go on instinct for once. You're driving me crazy." Betty says as she pulls Stephen down into a kiss. "Just relax. I'm not going to judge you. It's been too long for me to have anything to judge against."
Without saying another word Stephen has Betty flat on her back on the bed and is kissing her neck and her breasts. He is trying to get her bra off, but like most men is struggling with the clasp. "Here, let me." Betty says and she sits up and slips her bra off and then slips out of the rest of her articles of clothing except her panties. Stephen quickly follows suit. "You're more attractive without clothes on I think." Betty says as she continues to kiss Stephen.
"I could the exact same thing about you to be honest. You're beautiful, Betty. You'd never know it under that uniform, though. It really does nothing for you." Stephen says as his eyes and hands comb Betty's body.
Betty has gotten quite bold and decides that enough is enough. She quickly takes off her panties and whips Stephen's y-fronts off before he's even had a chance to blink. Stephen has gotten the hint and quickly moves on to the main event.
Later when both are sated and happy and Betty is laying comfortably in Stephen's arms they both take time to reflect. "I didn't realize a woman could be that aggressive. I've apparently missed a chunk of my sexual education." Stephen says as he caresses Betty's arm.
"I wouldn't say that you've missed any education in this department, actually. That was absolutely divine and I'm lucky to have a man like you." Betty says as she kisses Stephen's chest. "You may have to wear a very high collared shirt tomorrow if you want to cover that love bite I gave you."
"Well, I suppose I gave only as good as I got. It's been a wonderful night beyond even my high expectations. You were amazing you know." Stephen says just before the couple drift off into a happy slumber.
