Bruce's mind was swimming. His thoughts were bouncing between the evening
events.
"I just told Amy that I love her," he thought. "And now I might have to tell her that I'm going to have another child with Mia?!!"
He was so angry with himself. He was angry that he gave into that moment of weakness with Mia.
"It wasn't even worth it. I enjoy my dreams better than I enjoyed myself that night," he thought.
Bruce remembered he was going to stop quite a few times that night. Mia was so bossy and selfish in bed. It was a huge turn off for him. He didn't mind a woman in control during sex, but he did mind having a woman act as if he was some kind of servant –only there to provide her with pleasure.
His thoughts turned to Amy. He knew how giving Amy was. She always put others first, unlike Mia. How he fantasized about making love to Amy... He did it that night with Mia. He's even certain he called out Amy's name during the escapade. Fantasizing about her was the only way he could follow through what he started with Mia. He frowned in disbelief; if he really did get Mia pregnant –it was because he fantasized about Amy! "This is some Jerry Springer shit," he thought.
Then he started remembering the fantasy...
They were in her office working late on a case that Amy asked him to mediate. They were sitting on opposite ends of the couch discussing the case. The day had been long and stressful. Amy was tired and tense from the stress. She kept rubbing her neck like she was trying to work out the tension in it. He stopped discussing the case and asked her if she was alright. She responded that she was a little stressed out from the day. He offered to rub her shoulders. She happily accepted. He told her to turn around and began messaging her shoulders. He tried to continue discussing the case but Amy kept letting out soft moans which distracted him. He asks her if she is enjoying herself. She says she really would if her blouse wasn't in the way. Without asking him, she unbuttons her blouse so it can hang down lower. Now he can massage her neck and shoulders without the blouse in the way. He is entranced by the beautiful slope of her neck, the softness of her skin. Realizing the softness of her skin, he asks her if his hands are too rough. She replies with a louder moan. He is really turned on. He starts to massage underneath her shoulder bra straps. Not realizing it, he is slowly sliding her towards him while he continues to rub her neck and shoulders. She is right in front of him, leaning her back into his chest. He looks down and sees her breasts cradled in her bra. He massages underneath the shoulder bra straps, sliding his hands a little lower each time. Amy moans constantly, like an approval of what he's doing. She finally looks up at him and they begin to kiss passionately. She turns completely around toward him as he leans back into lie on the couch. She is undoing his belt as he is undoing her bra...
He shook his head and shoulders trying to shake the thoughts out of his mind. He doesn't want to go too far too fast this weekend with Amy. He can't focus on sex. As bad as he wants it, he wants a lasting relationship with her more. Then tries to reason favorably, "I've had a lasting relationship with her; I've been by her side almost every day for close to 6 years. The only thing about to change is how intimate we become. Being by her side is not what's at question." He smiles thinking about her and the weekend he is about to spend with her. His body gets a rush again with the thoughts that come to mind. Mia's long gone from his mind. Then his phone rings... He jumps up and answers it.
"Hello?" asks Bruce nervously, afraid that it's Mia again.
"Hi Bruce, is something wrong?" asks Amy concerned.
"No Amy," Bruce said a little calmer. "I'm almost packed. I was actually not sure what to pack, since I don't know where I'm going."
"Oh it doesn't matter. It's going to be away from any civilization. So pack whatever you feel comfortable wearing around me. The place is totally secluded. We're probably going to need some groceries though. Are you going to be here soon?"
"Uhm, I haven't picked up the rental car yet but that shouldn't take long at this time of night," said Bruce as he closed up his suitcase. He started heading toward the door.
"Try to rent an SUV," Amy suggested. Bruce paused.
"Wow, I'm getting pretty curious. Are we going camping?"
"God, no. It's just a quaint place in a natural setting. So just for precaution, an SUV would be a good choice for the terrain."
Bruce headed for the door.
"Ok. SUV it is. Do you want me to get an Escalade to provide more luxury?" Bruce joked.
"I just want you to get one that gets you here fast. I miss you already," said Amy coyly.
Bruce puts his suitcase in the trunk and gets into his car. He starts driving.
"I'm on my way. I'm looking forward to seeing you too lady."
"I'm anxiously waiting."
"Alright, I'm driving to the airport now. So it shouldn't be but another 20 minutes. I'll even call ahead and see if they have any Escalades available. That might save me sometime," he joked.
"Ugh, I don't care if it's a pick up as long as you pick up the pace!" Amy chided him in return.
"Ok, I understand. I'll see you soon."
"Not soon enough."
"Are you going to leave without me?" asked Bruce coyly.
"No. That wouldn't be any fun. Alright, alright, I'm getting off the phone and waiting for you." Amy laid back on her bad and smiled at the ceiling. "Isn't it funny how people can't get off the phone sometimes?" Amy asked teasingly.
"Well I'm just glad to hear you so happy. I can tell you're smiling a mile away." Bruce was smiling himself. He was really happy that Amy was so content. She had been so sad for so long, as he was. It was great to feel good.
They both tingled with excitement.
"Well I can see you're smiling too. Yes, I am very happy Mr. Van Exel. Hurry up and get here so I can show you."
"Now slow your roll girl! –I'm not just a quick roll in the hay," laughed Bruce.
Amy laughed too. "I'll call you afterward, I promise," she said sarcastically as she joked in return.
They chuckled. Bruce pulled into the parking lot of the rental car area of the airport.
"Hey, I'm already at the car rental place so I'll call you when I'm on my way baby."
Amy melted at hearing Bruce call her "baby".
"Ok, can't wait. My cell phone is charged so call me back on that. Bye"
"Ok, Bye" Bruce closed his cell phone and put it in his jacket pocket. He got his suitcase out of his car and headed inside the rental car place.
He was smiling from ear to ear. It didn't seem real that he was going to spend the weekend with Amy. His hormones were revved up. He had to get control of himself; at least until he was done getting the rental car. He hadn't fantasized this much in years over a woman. "Hell, not since high school. These people are probably dying to know why I'm holding my suitcase right in front of me," he thought. He chuckled, but played off as a cough, and finally gained enough control to put his suitcase down. The rental car company didn't have a Cadillac Escalade but they had a Lincoln Navigator. Bruce didn't really care. He knew Amy didn't either. He took the Navigator. He was finally on his way to get Amy.
He got into the Navigator. He saw how roomy the interior was. A big grin appeared on his face... "Stop!" he screamed in his head. No matter how much passion he felt, he didn't want to turn this weekend into a roll in the hay. He wanted Amy to understand how special she is to him. He didn't want her to feel anything less. But he can't deny his desire for her and knows that she might have desires of her own. He knows it isn't a fling; he wants things to work on a long-term basis. After all, this is the woman of his dreams. The woman he wants to spend the rest of his life with. So things don't all have to take place this weekend. He'll have all the time in the world to make love to her... over and over again.
He shakes his upper body again, trying to keep calm, and focuses on taking things slow. He remembers that they've got a lot to discuss. After all, they still have to work together for a little while longer, he reminds himself.
He seems to have completely forgotten about Mia...
"I just told Amy that I love her," he thought. "And now I might have to tell her that I'm going to have another child with Mia?!!"
He was so angry with himself. He was angry that he gave into that moment of weakness with Mia.
