I pour us each a glass of wine and hand one to you. You look into my eyes with a glint in yours and raise a silent toast. You take a sip, roll it inside your mouth and heave a deep sigh saying, "Wow, its lovely!" You leave the glass on the mantle and stretch your limbs, your back makes a supple arch, your head turns up, your neck stretches invitingly, arms akimbo as your torso makes that perfect seductive S curve.

You are wearing a chiffon wrap-around dress, high stilettos and a halter neck blouse just tied at the back. Your face and your entire body are aesthetically made up. The wrap-around dress is peach-white, the halter neck-bikini-blouse similar in color but netted in texture with peach plastic strings haltering behind your neck. Around your neck you have a long string of pearls wrapped a couple of times that just nestle along your collar bone. On your ears are two danglers stringed with pearls. You wear turquoise blue eye-shadow with a greenish tinge. You have colored the fringes of your hair flaming red with streaks of turquoise. Your hair is dark, straight and openly flowing, the fringe slightly billowing, highlighting your forehead. You are wearing a dark purple lipstick with a gloss that shimmers. On your neck and parts of your upper arms and shoulders, I detect some glitter that’s mesmerizing. Your skin is glowing and is waxed smooth like a baby's bottom. At least whatever I can see of it.

We had gone for a few fancy cocktails whose saving grace were several beautiful women in their finest. But somehow you made heads turn, those eyes riveted on you, some lustily, some angrily; some enviously were making you quite conscious. The conversation was boring, people drab and the music sucked. After a few more drinks, I invited you to my room upstairs to kill a bottle of wine. You jumped at the chance to get away from those prying eyes of everyone. The men were stripping you naked while the women were almost ready to claw you out of there. "Phew," you said, as I opened the door to a room lit with six aromatic candles in all the four corners. It was quite bright, the light was almost dancing. The sequined portions of your dress and the glitter on your skin were playing hide and seek in the most brazen manner.

That was the backdrop to the first sip of your glass. A CD I put in had started crooning,







Your eyes are half shut concentrating on the words, your hand is moving towards the mantle to pick the glass and your feet have started shuffling towards me. You take a second sip, a large one at that, holding my big fat waist with your other hand, you rest your head on the lapel of my dark suit jacket. Before I can take my sip, you turn your face towards me, slide your other arm behind my neck and pull my face down to your mouth for a kiss. Lo and behold, before I know, I am gulping down the red wine from your mouth. Promptly you suck a part of the wine back to your mouth. It’s like a transfer routine and soon you release me with a trickle of red wine tantalizingly sliding from the corner of your mouth. You look back at me as if your mouth is bleeding. The purple lipstick and the trickle of wine are playing havoc.

I reach across and hold your hand, pulling you closer. Very softly and delicately, I just lick the wine trickle from your chin. I touch the corner of your mouth and it opens, but I leave it at that. You close your eyes, hugging me tighter and say...

“Kiss me darling, kiss me my love.”

I take another sip from my glass; holding your cheeks within both my palms, I lean down. Instead of your mouth I kiss your throat and the sin of your jaws, leaving the wetness of the wine deliberately on your skin. I murmur, "Shuch, you smell so divine. God, this is driving me crazy. It seems like heaven. "

You bring your face closer to me, mouth half open, your lips quiver, the tip of your tongue rolls over the dryness of your lips. You are a sight to behold. Gone are the giggles. Your nose is flared up, your breathing is hard and your eyes are half closed in anticipation. I am too lost looking at your upturned face to do anything you desire.

Your arms are raised behind my neck; I can see your underarms, all smooth and shiny with just a thin film of sweat that shines with the glitter that you've sprayed. Your wrap-around dress is still covering your blouse and I can see the entire length of one arm through the sheen of the transparent peach-white fabric. The other arm is naked. You suddenly lift your glass of wine, finishing it, the entire glass, in one gulp.

You catch hold of my hand with yours and place it just below your shoulder, near the underarm of the naked arm, just above your heaving breast. I'm transfixed, almost rooted at the spot. My heart is beating so hard that you can almost hear it. I am almost gasping for breath. Softly, very softly, I press my hand against your skin where you have placed it and start rubbing you down with only my fingertips. I raise your arm; my fingertips trace your skin, under your arms, feeling the softness of the skin there and then touching the skin just above your breast. Slowly my fingertips are moving upwards, tracing your clavicle, rolling the pearls against the skin of your neck, along your jaw line, and reaching behind to gently etch patterns behind your ears. My eyes are almost transfixed on yours, trying to read each change of expression, you shiver just once and break the spell, saying rather loudly,

"Jeff, aren't you pouring me another glass of wine, dear."

I jump with a start, grin, and say, “Yeah my lady.” Walking off repeating the last line of the second stanza of the song along with the CD... ('nd you're the best thing that he's ever seen)

Lay, lady, lay, lay across my big brass bed
Stay, lady, stay, stay with your man awhile
Until the break of day, let me see you make him smile
His clothes are dirty but his hands are clean
And you're the best thing that he's ever seen
