Disclaimer: Don�t own characters only borrowing them for a while, blah blah blah� Nora glanced at her watch again and mentally chastised herself for being so impatient, she�d counted every single minute of the past hour as they�d ticked by and still they dragged. She threw down her pen and leant back in her chair allowing one of her shoes to slip off so she could stretch her foot, she smiled at the sensation and leant down to rub her toes when her office door swung open. �What the hell are you doing?� Jack laughed at the sight of her crunched up and half underneath her desk. �Rubbing my aching feet. It�s only 3p.m and I�m ready for going home.� �So why don�t we.� He gently closed the door and moved behind her resting his hands on her shoulders and slowly easing the tension away. �Nobody has to know.� �If I leave now something�s bound to happen.� �Then let it.� He bent down and kissed the back of her neck, inhaling the heady scent of her perfume. �You certainly are persuasive.� �Husbands are meant to be. I�d just forgotten that.� �Well we have been married almost three years now, it happens.� �It shouldn�t, do you realise we�ve hardly seen each other this month, and when we do we end up arguing.� �I know, I�m sorry.� �I�m as much to blame. We need to start making time for us.� �True.� �So come home with me now. It�s been so long since we made love.� She spun round in her chair almost knocking Jack over. �You mean you�re just taking me home for sex.� She snapped. �No, I said make love.� He reached out for her hand; worried he�d only resulted in upsetting her more. She chewed her bottom lip in that nervous way she had before dissolving into one of her trademark smiles that lit her eyes up. �I�m only joking � let�s go.� She reached up and took his hand. �Great, come on babe I�m gonna show you one hell of a good time.� �That will make a nice change then.� �Hey!� He protested as she dragged him out of the office giggling. * * * �I was beginning to forget how good it felt.� Nora stretched her body out, completely satisfied. �I hadn�t.� Jack groaned twisting onto his side and resting his head on Nora�s heaving chest. �Nothing better than making love to my beautiful wife.� �You old romantic.� She rubbed his back with one hand and reached down for the blanket with the other pulling it up to cover them both. �Your heart�s beating very fast.� Jack whispered as he closed his eyes. �Just as long as it doesn�t stop we�ll be fine.� �Don�t say things like that.� �I was only joking.� �Well don�t, I can�t imagine not having you here, not feeling this.� He lifted his head up and kissed over her collarbone and up to her neck. �You�re getting very serious.� �I�m always serious.� He looked up at her smiling face. �Well perhaps not always.� He tickled her waist and she screamed. �Stop it, I hate that.� �I know, I�m just evil.� �Lie back down and behave, you need your rest I haven�t finished with you yet.� �Alright, slave driver.� He lay back down next to her and she rested her head on his shoulder. �You know, I�d forgotten how good it feels to spend an afternoon in bed.� Nora smiled entwining her hand in his. �Shame we can�t spend every afternoon here.� �Just wait until we retire.� �I hope it�s a few years until that, I�d get so bored.� �Hmm, I�m sure we�ll find something else to do.� She leant down and kissed his chest, moving herself on top of him. �Do you think anyone noticed us sneaking out?� �Shouldn�t think so, too busy doing it themselves I should think.� �Hardly a good example, the boss creeping out.� �For an afternoon of carnal pleasures eh you little�� �Hey, that�s enough of that. So how are you feeling now?� �Pretty damn good actually.� He tightened his arms around her waist. �Ok so what now my love?� �What do you think.....� * * * |
