3 Weeks 'Til Forever
resist, knowing this was
just the release her body needed.
     
    Redmond kissed her long and deeply, afraid
that if he let go of her mouth, she’d find the words to resist.
     
    His hands found their way under her
night shirt. Braless, her breasts were warm and she flinched at the coolness of
his hands on them. The passion of his kisses soon had her whole body on fire.
    Her hands roamed over his naked chest.
Finding the back of his head with one hand, she pulled him closer, deepening
the kiss even more.
     
    Taking his cue from her, Redmond pushed her
back against the pillow, not letting his mouth leave hers. His hands moved over
her flat belly to her thighs and to her core.
     
    Still kissing her deeply, his fingers
sought and gained entrance to her womanhood. Softly he stroked that magic place
between her legs.
     
    Janey opened her legs wider to give him
greater access.
     
    The gates of passion had opened and she
was lost.
     
    How did he know to touch her like that?
So soft, at just the right place, with just the right amount of pressure.
     
    Almost crying in delight, she called out
his name, “Redmond. Oh Redmond.”
     
    “Yes baby, I’m here,” he responded. “I’m
right here.”
     
    Boom, boom, boom.
     
    Boom, boom, boom.
     
    Somewhere through the haze of passion,
Janey and Redmond realized there was someone knocking on their door.
     
    “Who is it?” Redmond called out, almost
angrily.
     
    Frustrated by his pent-up needs, Redmond
thought, Who could that possibly be at this hour and their timing couldn’t
be worse.
     
    “It’s security,” the voice on the other
side of the door answered. “We got a report of screams coming from this room
and wanted to know if everything is alright?”
     
    Body barely composed from the obvious
signs of lovemaking, Redmond peered through the peep hole to verify that it was
indeed hotel security, then opened the door wide enough so that the young guard
could peer inside and see that everything was ok.
     
    Speaking from directly behind him, Janey
said, “I found a lizard in my bed which made me scream. I’m sorry to cause such
a ruckus. I hope I didn’t disturb any of the other guests too much.”
     
    Obviously relieved at seeing that
everything was ok, the guard said, “It’s okay ma’am, and I’m sorry that
happened to you. It is the tropics and it happens from time to time.”
     
    “Good night sir,” the young guard said,
tipping his hat before he strode off.
     
    Redmond closed and secured the door,
then looked at Janey.
     
    Chewing on her bottom lip, Janey said,
“Redmond, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have let things get so out of hand.”
     
    Reaching
for her, he responded, “I don’t think things got out of hand at all Janey. I
know you want me as much as I want you.”
    Side-stepping his embrace, she
responded, “That’s irrelevant. For so many reasons, let’s just stick to our
original arrangement.”
     
    Never one to push and mindful that
theirs was a business arrangement for all intents and purposes on this trip,
Redmond let the matter drop.
     
    “Do you wanna go for a quick walk on the
beach? I’m not sleepy and it’s hours before daybreak. A little moonlight walk with
some fresh air could be just what we both need,” Redmond said.
     
    This was just the type of off-the-cuff
thing Janey liked to do from time to time.
     
    Sensing that he needed to get himself in
check before climbing back into a bed beside her, Janey realized that she felt
the exact same way about climbing back into one beside him. So, she readily
agreed.
     
    During their half-hour walk, Janey
peppered Redmond with questions about the region, which would allow her to
write a richer account of the area. He readily answered, giving her so much
detail that she wished she had a recorder to remember it all.
     
    He was not just a taxi driver she
thought; he really knew ‘his’ island – everything from its history, to the
types of plants and foods Sol y Besos
