as she recalled how he had gulped and quickly removed
his finger. He had learned that two could play at his game and behaved himself
throughout the rest of their lunch. But he had left her with such a tender,
warm and wet goodbye kiss that she had been useless this afternoon. Alex could
feel the moisture between her legs that Ian had put there today. First in the
courthouse, and then over lunch. She wondered how it would be tonight. Would he
take her hard and fast or would he tease her and drag out the foreplay until
she thought she would die? A knock on her door startled her and she blushed as
she was awakened from her thoughts.
Peter entered the room.
“Are you feeling all right Alex? You look kind of flushed.”
“I’m fine Peter but I do feel a little tired. Do you mind if I take a
rain check on tonight?” Alex cringed at how easily she lied to Peter. This
obsession with Ian Foster brought out the worst in her.
“Not a problem honey but I won’t pretend I’m not disappointed. Would you
still like me to come over to your place and pamper you? I’m told I give killer
massages.”
Alex chuckled at Peter’s teasing. “I bet you do Peter but no thanks.
Behave yourself. Maybe we can do dinner sometime next week? I’m glad you
stopped in because I need your opinion on my opening statement for my next
trial. It’s set to start Friday afternoon.”
Alex continued to talk but Peter wasn’t hearing her. She was so
beautiful. He wanted to reach out and stroke her silky soft blonde curls,
nuzzle his face in the luxurious mane, feel her smooth, moist skin under his
hands, bury his lips in the soft hollow of her neck and taste her rosy pink
lips. Her deep green eyes sparkled like emeralds whenever she talked about one
of her cases. She was truly passionate about her work. Peter only wished that
she would look at him that way, with passion in her eyes.
“Peter? Peter? Hey, are you listening to me Peter?” Peter jumped at the
harsh words from Alex.
“Honestly Alex? No. I wasn’t listening to you. I was sitting here
fantasizing about what it would feel like to have you in my arms, to kiss you,
to...”
Alex quickly cut Peter’s words short. She hated hurting Peter but she was
also tired of having this same conversation with him.
“Peter please. I know how you feel. You’ve made it very clear to me but
I’ve explained to you how I feel. I love you Peter. You’re my best friend; my
best friend . Please don’t ask me to give you more than I can. We’ve
known each other a long time Peter and my feelings for you haven’t changed. There
will never be more than a deep, loving friendship between you and me.”
Alex saw anger rise in Peter’s face. The same anger she saw every time
they had this discussion.
“Alex I don’t expect you to give me more than you’re willing to. I’m a
patient man and I’m willing to wait as long as it takes but damn it Alex I do
expect you to be honest with me. If you want to cancel our evening together to
be with Ian Foster, than just say so. Don’t make lame excuses and lie to me.”
“Oh, Peter. How did you know? I’m so sorry. I didn’t want to hurt your
feelings.”
“It hurts my feelings Alex to know you think you have to lie to me. I’m a
big boy Alex. The whole world and I can see what’s going on with you and Ian. I
know you had lunch with him today and I know how he affects you. I wish I had a
clue what it is that makes you act like a school girl and jump when he demands
your attention.”
“Peter!” Alex exclaimed. “That’s enough!”
“I’m not finished Lex. I’ll tell you once again Lexie that you deserve
better and you’ll never get it if you can’t let go of Foster. I’ve seen him use
you and hurt you over and over again and you keep putting up with him. You
accept every tiny little morsel of his time that he throws to you whenever he
feels like it which is usually when he can’t find another woman to warm
his finger. He had learned that two could play at his game and behaved himself
