The Instant Dating Game

The Bet

Tommy was patiently waiting in the living room sitting on one of the rattan cushioned chairs looking through the island guide although still quite irritated about Jude's previous teasing and vowed that he would win the bet by the end of the evening. Jude finally emerged from the bedroom wearing a white wrap around top, short khaki white hibiscus floral print sarong, white flat sandals and scented herself with a gardenia perfume. She noticed Tommy and the scowl on his face, 'Aw, poor baby,' she smirked to herself, 'he must be still upset about earlier' she thought.

Jude admired him from afar in his khaki colored denim jeans, white linen short sleeved button down shirt that was loose but slightly fitted so you could still see the hard definition of his body and his all white tennis shoes. Feeling a little bad, yes only a little, she quietly walked behind his seat and slid her hands behind his neck slipping them inside his shirt from the top to feel his hard pecks.

Tommy jumped a bit startled from the feel of her warm hands caressing his chest. "Hey there!" She greeted placing a light kiss on his right cheek. "Hey you!" Tom greeted back with a smile.

"So you ready to go?" Tom asked. "Yea, I'm starving." "Yea, I can hear you loud and clear," Tom replied grinning as he heard Jude's tummy growling. Jude laughed and walked in from of Tom and pulled up and out the door of their bure. As they stepped out there was a cart and driver waiting to take them to their destination. They greeted the driver and sat at the back of the cart Tom's arm around Jude while she laid her head on his shoulder.

Along the way, they had picked up another couple. They observed the happy couple as they came out of their bure, small kisses at first that turned into a passionate one within seconds, their arms were around each other's waists while their free outer hands were at first caressing each other's arms or face, then all of a sudden he grabbed his companion's breast while she ran her hand down his chest then brushed his crotch. Jude and Tommy stared at the couple's public display of affection, but quickly turned their heads hoping the arriving couple didn't notice. As the couple stepped into the cart to join them they introduced themselves, "Hi I'm Genna and this is my husband Mark!" Jude quickly returned with a smile, "Hi I'm Jude and this is Tommy!" and the four exchanged hand shakes. "So where are you from?" Tommy asked. "We're from Vancouver. How about you two?" Mark quickly replied as did Tommy, "We're both from Toronto."

"So you two are new here?" Mark spoke. "Actually yea we are. We just arrived this morning. You?" Tommy replied. "Oh, we just got married on Wednesday here on the island," Genna spoke excitedly. "Congratulations!" Tom and Jude replied together. "So where are you staying?" Genna continued. "We're in the bure at Vonu Point," said Jude. "Hey you two are lucky! That's a very private bure," Mark commented. "Is it really?" Tommy asked. "Mmhmm! No one's around you for miles. You could have wild sex outside and no one could hear you," Genna replied giggling. Jude cleared her throat before answering, "That private, huh?" "Oh yea!" Mark replied raising his eyes before returning his attention to his wife."

Tom and Jude just looked at each other and smiled after Genna and Mark's comment about having sex outside. They were enjoying the ride and natural scenery around them knowing this is something they wouldn't be around once they left. Suddenly they were interrupted with the sound of moaning in front of them. They shifted their eyes to take a quick look and noticed Mark and Genna in a very heated make out session, luckily the driver had music on at the front with him so he didn't hear a thing. They tried to avoid the commotion in the front but, they couldn't help but see Genna's body shifting in a light thrusting motion followed by whimpering.

"Do you think they're at 24/7?" Jude asked. "I doubt it. They have to come up for air some time and I'm sure they have to eat in order to keep up their energy," Tom replied smirking and Jude lightly smacked his the arm and he continued, "So Harrison, do you think you be able to handle going at it 24/7? After all you are going to lose this bet." "I think the question you should be asking is will you be able to handle not getting any for 24/7 once I win this bet?" Tommy couldn't help but feel a little jealous as he was glancing at the newlyweds because he was getting any kind of "action" at the moment, 'Me and my big mouth and stupid idea about this bet,' he thought to himself.

As Tommy was just sitting there enjoying his time with Jude although nothing was happening he decided to make things a little more difficult for her. His chin was sitting on her shoulder and he placed a small kiss where it was then he trailed more kisses leading up behind Jude's ear. As he was placing kisses Jude smiled not just the site, but from the heat that was tingling through her body as she felt his soft lips against her skin and Jude let out a small sound of enjoyment, "mmmm" and stretched her neck out a bit more for him. "Are you trying to seduce me Quincy?" "Maybe, is it working?" He replied and continued with wet open kisses along her neck and snaked his arm around her waist slipping his hand under her top so he could feel her soft skin at her stomach and ran his finger under her right bra line touching her soft breast. Jude finally turned her head capturing his lips, "So it is working," Tom smirked and Jude pulled back smiling "Shut up you perv!" she retorted and returned her attention to the scenery before her.

The two couples finally arrived at dining area of the resort and each gave their last names, "Adams" Mark spoke and then Tommy after, "Quincy and Harrison." Genna turned to look at the two behind her, "Tommy Quincy as in Lil' Tommy Q and Jude Harrison?" "Shh, guilty as charged," Jude replied with her finger to her lips telling Genna to keep quiet and Tommy flinched as he heard his old nickname. "What are you two doing here?" Genna had asked and Mark came beside her to hear the conversation. Tommy started to explain, "Well we're here because our friends and Jude's sister, they set us up on a dating game show," and he and Jude told the Genna and Mark the whole story. "Wow! And at the end of the show you two end up together. That's amazing! You two must have been totally surprised by the outcome," stated Mark and Genna agreed with a nod knowing the background of the two from the media. "We were," Jude replied, "and neither of us had expected this kind of thing to happen. But in the end we think it worked out great," and she looked at Tommy, smiled and wrapped her arms around his midsection.

The couples were finally seated in the outside dining area at their own tables. Jude and Tommy were seated in a large cushioned rattan chair fit for two that had a very high and rounded back which you could not even see their heads. The waiter had arrived first serving their water and handing them their menus and later returned to take their orders. Tommy and Jude were enjoying their lunch having a quiet conversation amongst themselves and sharing sweet kisses in between. "I can't believe we're here Tommy! This place is so beautiful!" "I know neither can I, and the view I have is definitely beautiful, one I that I can't take my eyes off of," Tommy said as he looks at Jude with his intense blue eyes. Jude smiles and Tommy leans in to close the gap between their lips.

He deepens the kiss by running his tongue between the slit of her lips, she happily grants him access and massages her own soft tongue with his. The further he pushes into her mouth Jude begins to moan as a jolt of sensation runs through her body. Tommy responds to her moan by placing his hand on her thigh and gently rubbing it at first then inching the sarong up little by little, 'thank god for the long table cloth on this table," he thought as he continued with his finger venture to no mans land.

He soon arrived and glided his finger along her center on the outside then slowly slipped his thumb in at the side so he was in contact with her skin and finally reached her clit. Jude gasped at his unexpected touch and Tommy quickly began rubbing the sensitive flesh in a circular motion. 'Now it's my turn' Tommy mentally said then Jude began moving her lower half more towards his hand instigating she wanted more. He took notice of her hint pushing aside the front of her panty and began stroking her folds with his first two fingers, she moaned again then he plunged into her pumping at a steady pace.

Jude didn't know what was coming over her, but for some reason at that moment she didn't care what was around her and thought, 'What the hell am I doing?! If I keep going like this I'll end up losing this stupid bet. Hmm but sex with Tommy everyday is definitely worth it? We'll see.' She removed herself from his hand and slid herself onto Tommy's lap so she was straddling him then she took his same hand that was pleasuring her and slid it underneath her sarong. Tommy knew what she wanted at that moment and he returned his fingers at their rightful position to pleasure his Girl again. As soon as Tommy slid back in, Jude was turned on again and began grinding onto him while his digits were in her and applied so much pressure that the back of his hand was sitting on growing member. Now Tommy started to regret his motives but still loved the feel her warm, soft, wet flesh that was sitting on the palm of his hand and he did everything control his emotions at the moment. Jude began to increase her own pace and was panting against his lips and soon she was about climax and Tommy knew it, so with his free hand he lifted her up and removed her. "What the hell did you stop me for?!" Jude asked completely irritated. "Baby, the waiter is going to be here soon with our dessert. We can continue this later if you want," Tommy answered her smiling thinking 'Good, I have her right where I want her, horny as hell."

Soon enough the waiter did arrive with their delectable dessert. "Babe what do you want to do while we're here?" Jude asked knowing he looked at the resort guide earlier. "Let's try to do as much as we can. I mean there's hiking, biking, snorkeling, horseback riding, a cruise, scuba diving and picnics. But that is if we have time." "What do you mean if we have time?" "Well you will lose the bet so I doubt we'll even step out of the bure," Tom said jokingly, but he did want to enjoy the island as well. "You better make sure we enjoy this island Tommy or you will be sleeping out on the veranda for the duration of this two week date whether you win this bet or not," Jude ordered as she glared at him. "Gees Jude, I was only kidding," Tom laughed, "I want to enjoy the island too. And besides, there are so many places for us to have sex around the island not just in our cottage." "My god Quincy! I swear is sex all you ever think about?!" "When I'm with you, yes!" "Tommy you are such a horn dawg!" "Yes I am, but only for you and damn proud of it!" He answered her with pride and she just shook her head.

Jude and Tommy finally finished their dessert and decided to take a walk around the beach. Walking with their arms around each other and shoes in their hands they strolled a bit into the water so their feet could feel the warmth of the water. Tommy stopped and looked deeply into her blue eyes, met his lips with hers and picked Jude up and she automatically wrapped her legs around his waist. While keeping her position she slowly pulled away from the kiss and asked, "What was that kiss for?" "Because I can't believe that we are here together on this romantic island and it took a stupid show to bring us together," he paused for a moment before he continued, "and for being the beautiful person that you are inside and out," and he kissed her again. "How about we head back to the bure and let's make plans to go horseback riding tomorrow and then a picnic and then we'll order a snack for when we arrive back and a candle lit dinner tonight outside around 8," Jude suggested and he nodded to agree.

Jude and Tommy walked back to the main lobby of the island so they could get ride back to their bure. When they arrived a their Bure Mama was there with their request of fruit plate, cookies, pastries and other goodies along with champagne and other beverages. She had also drawn a bubble bath for Jude which she took when she arrived. While Jude was in her bath Tommy spoke with their Bure Mama and was making other arrangements for that evening. He was determined to one win the bet, but two to make it the best evening for them both, especially Jude.

After an hour or so Jude finally came out of the bathroom from her relaxing aroma therapy bubble bath in a mid-length bathrobe and went into the living room searching for Tommy. She found him nowhere and decided to step outside. As she opened the door she felt a gush of warmth hit her face and inhaled the fresh air she received. She walked onto the verandah and saw him lying on the hammock with his eyes closed. Jude approached him quietly then leaned in and placed a soft kiss on his lips. Tommy responded immediately by gently pulling her neck towards him to deepen the kiss. They finally parted catching their breaths, "Hey babe!" He greeted softly and stood up from the hammock and took her into his arms, "Hey yourself!" Jude greeted back giving him another kiss.

"What are you doing out here?" "Nothing really, just relaxing. Our Bure Mama brought our snacks," Tom replied and pointed to the table that was set outside. He guided Jude to the table by the small of her back and sat her on his lap as he sat down. He poured the chilled champagne into two flutes and started feeding Jude strawberry and she did the same with the sweet pineapple. They stayed this way for a while and enjoyed the sun setting behind the glistening blue waters in their view. Finally they heard a cart pull up near the bure; it was the delivery of their dinner. Jude and Tommy stood up and hurried to their bedroom to change into appropriate attire while their dinner was set up on the patio.

Just as Tommy was turning on the Bose CD player Jude finally stepped out into the room, "How do I look?" She asked from a distance then walked towards him as he turned his head to look at her. "You look absolutely gorgeous Big Eyes!" Tommy had commented with a wide smile while taking in her alluring beauty. He took her into his arms and embraced her in a hug placing a kiss first in the crook of her neck trailing up finally to her sweet lips. They parted and Jude smiled back at Tom in response to his kisses.

Tommy took Jude into his arms with her back against his chest and walked them outside. As soon as Jude stepped out her eyes opened wide and she was in awe of the sight before her. The patio was completely surrounded with dozens of lit small candles in hurricanes, on the floor, the table, by the daybed and on the ledges around the bure. Their table which had their first course salad was adorned with orchids and other exotic flowers from the island that she had see earlier. Jude turned to Tommy with glassy eyes, "Did you arrange for all of this?!" Tommy nodded to reply and Jude smiled, "But why?!" "Because I'd do anything for you," is all he said and gave another quick kiss to her then lead her out to the table.

It was now nine thirty in the evening and they just finished their four course meal, Tommy took Jude's hands in his, "I have another surprise for you," he softly spoke. "Another surprise Tommy? You didn't have to." "I know but I wanted to and you deserve it." "What is it?" Jude asked excitedly and Tommy took her back into the cottage into the living were two massage tables set up and two Lomi –Lomi practitioners (basically massage therapists) were waiting. "Oh my god baby, a massage for both of us?!" "Yea, I thought we both needed it to relax and rejuvenate our bodies." Jude quietly squealed and jumped into Tom's arms kissing him repeatedly on his cheeks and lips, "You are the best Quincy! I so could use a massage right now!" Jude and Tommy left the room as they were each handed towels and instructed what to do when they came out. After an hour they were done and handed robes from their therapists and now they were relaxed and alone.

It was now ten thirty in the evening and Tom had their Bure Mama set out the fruit and champagne outside again but near the daybed this time. Finally everyone had left and Jude and Tommy had gone out to the daybed on the verandah. They sat together on the bed eating the sweet fruits from earlier and sipping champagne and Jude finally spoke, "Thank you Tommy!" "For what?" "For making everything tonight special." "Well there's one other thing I want to do that I hope will make this even more special."

Tommy gets up from the bed and quickly runs inside the cottage then back out again seating himself directly in front of Jude just inches apart then begins to speak, "Jude I know that we've been dancing around each other for so long now, and it was stupid that it took a dating show to bring us together, but like you said earlier today it all worked out in the end. Even though we've already decided to be together, there's something I want to give you." "What is it?" Jude asked curiously as she observed Tommy removing the necklace he had been wearing.

"I want to give you my heart, literally" he simply stated. "What?" Is all Jude could say sounding a bit confused. "Well, you remember the pendant I gave you right?" and Jude nodded to reply. "I want to give you my half," Tommy said as he removed his pendant from his chain then also removed Jude's necklace that he knew she always wore and continued to explain. "I'm not gonna hide this from you or from anyone else anymore. I've wanted to tell you this for long time now, but something always seems to stop us, it was either our age, the media, family, friends or even enemies got in the way of us truly being together, but this time I'm not letting anything or anyone stop me or us anymore more." As he was speaking he took his pendant and placed it on Jude's chain to join the two halves together.

He then looked up at her and put his arms around her neck to put the necklace back on her and Jude picked up the pendants that were now joined and tears began to slowly drop. Tom continued speaking as he did this, "Jude, I am completely in love with you. I am giving you the other half of my pendant to represent my heart and as a symbol of my love for you. Now that our hearts are joined as one, literally" Tommy points out laughing a bit at the moment and picks up the two pendants that fit perfectly together, "so is our love and I promise you that I will never break our love, I love you," Tommy finally finishes and looks deeply into Jude's glassy eyes that looked like diamonds in the moonlight.

Jude begins to shed a few more tears, even though she had been expecting this since their first real date, the reality of it was really hitting her, 'He loves me. He is actually in love with me," she thought. Tommy took Jude and cradled her in his lap and now were even closer, "Tommy, I'm in love with you too," was Jude's first response with a sweet smile, "I have always loved you and always will. I promise you that I won't break our love either." There was really not much she could say because her feeling and the tears had pretty much said it all. As Jude completed her confession she closed the little space that was left between them.

When the two immediately connected a load of heat began to course through their bodies just waiting to erupt like a volcano. Both were wondering in their own minds, 'Was it the moment they were in? Was it this romantic, exotic and secluded island they were on? Was it because they were surrounded by other lovers that were on the island? Love was definitely in the air. Or was it simply because they finally professed their undying love for one another?' No matter what the reason was the two were not going to wait much longer.

Jude initiated things by trailing kisses along his jaw line, to his earlobe and then his neck and Tommy moaned. He soon followed by trailing kisses down her neck towards her chest and with out breaking concentration of his actions he untied the knot of her terry cloth robe, guided her down to lay on the bed and opened her robe completely.

There Jude laid in front of him just in her thong a vision that would be embedded in his mind forever. As Tommy hovered over Jude undid the knot of his robe just as he had done previously sliding it off of his body. She pushed her self up to remove her robe then kiss his chest, taking his nipple into her mouth sucking and biting it.

Jude felt more urgency and desire for him washing over her and she pushed him down as she was now on top and in control. She trailed kisses from his chest down to his boxers and she quickly pulled them down guiding him to the edge of the bed and was awe at the sight before her. Jude could tell that he was completely aroused and wanted nothing more than to pleasure him.

Jude finally spoke to break the silence between them, "Baby close your eyes," she ordered and Tom obeyed. She licked her lips and as soon as the whites of his eyes were no longer visible she took him in her mouth completely down to the base. "Oh god Jude!" He cried out and then she torturously pulled back up keeping the grip of her mouth tight along his shaft then stopping at his tip that was secreting pre-cum. Tommy shot his head up to look at her and bucked his hip signaling her to continue, "Baby more!" he begged and Tom Quincy never begged for sex. Feeling turned on by his plea she continued to bob her head along his thick member stopping occasionally at the tip to bite and suck at it.

"Girl, you are going to be the death of me!" Tom stated and decided to take over. He flipped them over so he was now on top. Without warning he gave Jude a bruising kiss and plunged his tongue into her which she gladly accepted, then pulled away to trail kisses down her body and positioned her they way he wanted. His kisses ended above her pelvis then reached her thong and pulled it off anxious to taste her.

Without instructions she happily spread her legs before him so he could take the treasure that he has been waiting for and with that he blissfully kissed her clit down to the folds. "Mmm, Tommy more baby!" Jude cried out. As he heard her demand, he could feel her juices exuding from her body into his mouth and he drank them as if it were water pouring from fountain.

He went on with his actions but could tell she was on the verge of cumming so he slowed down and blindly looked for his robe and opened the much needed package and sheathed himself. Tom sped up again lapping her juices then abruptly stopped, but before she spoke he entered her without any alert. Jude and Tom both yelled in satisfaction of finally being joined together. Tom pushed her up onto the bed wrapping her legs around his waist thrusting into her at a steady pace. They both continued meeting each other's trusts, matching each one's pace and energy, calling out each other's names pleading for more until the final words cried from their lips as they climaxed together, "Jude, I love you!" "Tommy, I love you!"

Jude and Tommy laid together on the daybed, Jude was listening to the beat of his heart, then Tommy was looking at his watch, "Girl, you lose," he said smiling. "What are you talking about?" Jude asked propping herself up. "It's now 11:59 pm, you lose," Tom stated again. "And your point is?" "My point is that I get to have you anywhere, anytime and any how I want," he said wiggling his eyebrows. "Shut up!" Jude said as she hit him in the chest, "you're lucky tonight was so worth losing to you and that I love you," Jude said with a smile not caring about the bet anymore. "I love you too Jude," Tommy said giving her another kiss as they enjoyed the warm air of the night being together on the verandah until they fell asleep.

Meanwhile back in Toronto……

"C'mon Adam let's go!" she said to her companion. "I want to get to that damn island before the two weeks is up!" 'There's no way I am gonna let her have him! Damn goody two shoes bitch!' She said to herself. "Alright babe! Hold on, we would have left sooner if you hadn't packed so much stuff. I'm telling you that you're gonna have to get rid of most of this. They specifically said not to pack a lot because there a minimum weight for the plane." "Whatever! Let's just go! Now!"
