Tasha almost ruined everything by trying to back out of their weekend getaway. There was no way Sabrina was going to let that happen.
Sabrina lived for these stolen moments and he never failed her. They’d been meeting every Tuesday and Thursday for the past three years. However, over the past couple of months Tim had been so distant. She needed to slow things down until everything got back to normal with them and he stopped with the crazy talk of divorce.
Of course, that didn’t go over well with him. But, no matter how angry he was for putting him off, Sabrina always figured out a way to get him forget.
As soon as they entered the hotel room, they couldn’t wait to tear each other’s clothes off. Her two thousand dollar blouse was worthless after all the buttons were ripped off. She probably wouldn’t ever be able to wear any of the clothes she’d worn again.
Sabrina stretched out across the bed like a Cheshire cat thinking about how delicious the rest of the night was going to be.
It had been awhile since they’d been able to take their time. However, they would tonight. There was no reason to rush, or constantly check the clock or feel as if they would get caught. She laughed and spoke softly to herself, “Well…that part is alright with me.”
At some point while she’d been sleeping, he’d gotten out of bed and decided to take a shower without her. If she wasn’t feeling so boneless, she would go and get in the shower with him. But, no. They could enjoy each other in a shower or a bath later. This would actually be a good time to call and make sure Tasha and Tim made it to the cabin.
Sabrina dialed Tim’s cell. It rang a couple of times before his voice-mail picked up, you’ve reached Tim, leave a message and I’ll call you back. Beep.
“Hey honey. I was just calling to check in and make sure you guys made it safely. I’ll be leaving for my dinner meeting in a bit, so if you call, I may not be able to answer. I hope you are unwinding. I’ll be there tomorrow to make sure. Love you.”
The timing was perfect because Sabrina hung up just as he walked out of the bathroom. His towel was wrapped loosely around his waist with little droplets of water clinging to his skin. It had only been a little while ago that Sabrina’s lips had kissed every part of his body. The mere thought of them being together caused that all familiar tingle between her thighs.
“You should have woken me up. Your shower would have been a lot more exciting with me in it.”
He walked over to the side of her bed and dropped his towel. His eyes bore into hers as his manhood stood fully erect just inches away from her lips. “Who was on the phone?”
Sabrina slowly licked her lips before she spoke, “I needed to check-in.” Just alluding to Tim was enough to ignite a barely contained rage.
“Screw him!”
She smiled coyly, “I can’t screw him because I’m screwing you.”
Her comment didn’t elicit laughter as intended. As a matter of fact, it caused him to walk way and sit down on the edge of the bed.
“Sabrina, I’ve been more than patient. I’m not going to wait for you forever. We’ve been doing this dance for over three years.”
“Eric, I told you getting a divorce from Tim was going to take some time and that I wasn’t leaving this relationship broke. Nothing has changed since I first told you that at the party.”
“It’s been a year since that night. Do you know how hard it was being around you and Tim? It was driving me crazy.”
“Don’t act like you didn’t have Tasha keeping you warm.”
“I never loved Tasha, you know that.”
“That’s not the point. How do you think I felt?”
“Once you let me know you were interested in me, there was never any competition between you and Tasha. You know that.”
“No, I don’t know that. I’ve been in competition with her to some degree most of my life. In my father’s eyes Tasha is the standard and I will never measure up to her.”
“So, what am I to you then? Some twisted way of getting back at her?”
Eric had no idea how right he actually was. “That’s silly. I’m with you because we have a real connection.”
He reached out to touch her cheek, “I’m telling you now. There was never any competition. Even before we started hooking up, I could never really commit to her partly because she has these impossible standards that no one will ever be able to live up to, partly because she didn’t have room in her heart for me, but mostly because you are an incredible woman.”
Sabrina didn’t feel the least bit guilty that she’d been having an affair with her best friend’s boyfriend for years and letting her think all this time she’d been having the affair with Daniel.
Of course, she and Daniel had had an occasional hook-up but that ended soon after she married Tim. He of all people had the nerve to tell her he didn’t want to be sleeping with someone so close to his wife’s family. The bastard had the nerve to try to have some standards.
Eric pulled her close and placed his lips on hers for a hungry kiss. He wanted to convey all the hope and love he felt for her in that kiss.
“I love you Sabrina.”
As Sabrina passionately returned his kisses she knew that she was going to have to end this affair soon. Eric was never supposed to fall in
