Alice had just walked in the door and taken off her shoes when there was a knock; Matthew was standing there with some groceries and a smile on his face.
"Come in Matthew. The house is cold, I've just walked through the door. What have you in that bag? What are we having for dinner?"
"Alice! So many questions and I'm barely through the door."
Matthew leaned in and kissed her and said, "hello lovely."
Alice blushed profusely as she tried to take the bag from Matthew, but he shook his head and said, "let's go to the kitchen."
When he placed the bag on the table, there was a casserole and chocolate cake; Matthew had called Jean for some help and she had offered up some of what she was making. Matthew gratefully picked the food up on his way home from work, thanking Jean with a very large smile: when he was leaving, Jean turned as said with a wink, "I hope you two enjoy your evening!"
"We just need to turn your oven on and pop this in. Ready in half an hour."
Alice turned the oven and Matthew placed the casserole dish in and closed the door. They laid the table and Alice went to pour them a glass of wine, but Matthew took the bottle from her hand and set onto the table with the glasses.
"I have a better idea of what we could do to pass the time while we wait for dinner to warm." He had a glint in his eye and instantly Alice understood what Matthew was referring to.
"Chief Superintendent, you wicked, wicked man!" Alice leaned up for a kiss, pulled Matthew in for a soft kiss then led him by the hand to her bedroom.
Matthew cupped Alice's face with one hand and with the other, her caressed her arm from her shoulder to her hand.
"Alice, are you sure about this?"
"Yes Matthew. I really want to." She stepped up on her tip toes, still holding his hand, and kissed him softly on the lips. She then made small tentative kisses down his neck and started to unbutton his shirt. The tentative kisses turned into something more and they were both getting tangled up trying to remove each other's clothes.
Matthew stopped Alice's hands on his belt and said, "listen love, slow down. Let's just enjoy this."
He leaned down, still holding her hands in one of his, kissed her on both her cheeks then ended on her lips. Alice wrapped her hands around Matthew's naked back and pushed him so that he was sitting on her bed. She saddled his lap, wearing only her slip and underwear, and proceeded to kiss Matthew down his neck, caressing his chest as she did. She reached a point where she wanted to feel him against her and went to remove her slip, but Matthew stopped her and said, "let me lovely." He tossed the offending the item to the floor to meet the rest of their items of clothing then swiftly removed her bra, puller her towards him and resuming kissing. His hands were caressing her back and bum when Alice reached down and removed Matthews belt and undid his trousers; he kicked them off as he pulled both of them further up the bed and managed to manoeuvre Alice below him.
"This alright, Alice?"
"Yes Matthew, now stop talking please."
"Matthew looked int Alice's eyes and said, "Alice? Last night you asked me something…I was wondering if you would ask me again."
"You mean…make love to me?" she said seductively.
"Yes."
"Make love to me Matthew, please?"
"Gladly love. Gladly."
They picked up where they had left off and didn't stop till they were both drench in sweat and both sated. As they lay in Alice's bed Matthew suddenly sat up and said, "dinner!"
Both of them ran to the kitchen but when they opened the door, it appeared that dinner was fine and the casserole was ready. They both looked at each other, both stood naked in Alice's kitchen, and laughed. Matthew pulled Alice towards him and placed a kiss on her lips, "that was best half hour I've ever spent with you Dr Harvey!"
"Well, give it time, I like to always look to improve! Now come on and we'll find something to cover ourselves up while we eat dinner. You will stay tonight Matthew?"
"Try and stop me love."
