********************************************
I slid the key card in and let Terri go in before me. We glanced around the room, both of us rather nervous. And yet, neither one of us should have been. This was what we both wanted. I watched her as she sat her bags down and her whole body screamed many things. And all those emotions were more than understood. I was in a hotel room for 12 hours, in another town, with a woman that was not my wife. In fact, she was my best friend’s wife. I sighed and she turned around and smiled at me.
“You okay?” I sat my things by the door and walked over to the bed.
“Does this feel wrong to you?”
“On so many levels. Yes, I’m cheating, but I look at like this. You want a baby; I’m just the tool getting used for that. And that by me doing it now, rather than later, I’m saving Howie the heartache that will happen.” I glanced over at her and she smiled again. I held out my hand and she took it, walking up to me. I couldn’t help but gaze at her. She was a unique woman, and yeah, maybe I was jealous and had some envy. But tonight was not thinking about that. It was about enjoying this amazing woman for the next 12 hours. My hands caressed her cheeks, longing to caress all her body, to kiss, touch, lick, and love all those wonderful places that only certain men have been lucky to see. “What’s on your mind?” My eyes caught hers and I had to catch my breath. I really had no clue how she got under my skin. I was supposed to be the happily married man, how did she capture me?
“How did you become such an enchantress?” Her grin turned into a smirk and I knew I was thoroughly going to enjoy these next few hours. Her lips attacked mine, her hands running themselves through my hair. I moaned as her teeth tugged on my lower lip, sending multiple shivers racing down my spine. Her lips trailed along my jaw, down my neck, gently nipping, making the moans escape louder. She pushed me back on the bed, straddling my hips, grinning down at me. Her hands snaked under my shirt, slowly pushing it up, her lips, teeth, and tongue torturing all areas of skin exposed to her eyes. Oh damn, this next 12 hours would be well worth it.

“Wanna watch a movie?” I glanced up at Howie, grateful for having him, no matter if it was difficult for the both of us or not.
“Yeah. Go ahead and pop whatever you want in and I’ll make some popcorn. Want a soda or a beer?”
“Hmm, a beer. Tonight just seems the night to be drinking.” I smiled at that as I made my way into the kitchen. I grabbed a bag of popcorn and threw it into the microwave. I rubbed my eyes, sighing as I made my way over to the fridge. I grabbed the can for D and grabbed myself a wine cooler. I opened it, and took a long swig from the bottle. “Starting early are we?” I laughed as I set the can on the counter and he walked over to it, popped it open and took a deep drink.
“Oh, and I’m starting early.” He shrugged and walked over to me, smiling as he cupped my cheek. His eyes held mine and I couldn’t help but fall under that sensual spell. Without a second thought, his head descended and his lips brushed mine. Woah, was Terri holding out on me here. Those lips were lethal and should be deemed illegal! He pulled away and I shook my head. No, we couldn’t go down this road. We couldn’t do what they were doing.
“I’m sorry.”
“No, don’t say that. Let’s just go watch that movie, huh?” He smiled, grabbed a bowl and poured the popcorn, grabbing my hand as we left the kitchen.

She pulled back, she did! How she managed to pull herself away, she wasn’t certain, and to be honest, I wasn’t either. She shook her head and slowly removed herself.
“Terri?”
“Brian, this…what you said…I just don’t know.” I placed my hands on her shoulders, sighing.
“I didn’t want to ruin the night.”
“You’re not ruining it. I just, I love you and Theresa, you two are my best friends. I just don’t want to lose what we have as friends simply because I can’t control my hormones.” I wrapped my arms around her shoulders and kissed the top of her head.
“Theresa won’t stop being your friend.” I watched as Terri wiped the tears and turned to smile at me.
“The closeness that her and I once had won’t be there. If the situation was reversed, I wouldn’t be close to her.”
“What do you mean?”
“Can you picture Theresa sleeping with Howie?” A jolt shot through my body. Yes, it was okay for me to do, it was not okay for her. I knew they were friends, it probably wouldn’t even surprise me if he was there. But, what…they…no, she was faithful. I shook my head, answering Terri’s question. She took a deep breath and I turned my eyes to her. “It’s a long night. I’m going to go freshen up.” She grabbed her bag and headed into the bathroom. I heard her start the faucet on the sink and heard the bag fall on the ground. Damn it. This was supposed to be about me and her and yet, I was thinking about my wife. Maybe that was good. Maybe that was a sign that I shouldn’t be doing this. I got off the bed, grabbed my cell phone and started to dial the number, only forgetting that the phone had died. Yes, it was on purpose! Terri cleared her throat and I quickly turned around, seeing her in nothing but the thinnest of a red satin gown. I swallowed the lump in my throat, feeling the raging hard on.
