Lie Back and Think of England

Rate: 7 Flag

"I am happy now that George calls on my bedchamber less frequently than of old. As it is, I now endure but two calls a week, and when I hear his steps outside my door I lie down on my bed, close my eyes, open my legs, and think of England."

The age of irony had folded back upon itself.

It wasn't George.

It wasn't her bedchamber.

And it wasn't one or two calls a week.

Rather it had been almost a month.

The guy was cute enough. A trace of the rebellious bad boy.

That had been her go to type in College. Even then, she wanted nothing to do with the real thing. Just the image. Leather jacket, maybe a slouch and a sneer. Attitude. But tempered with a smile and a little confidence.

That was a while back. And she had paid for her taste in men. The most costly experiences seem free and easy at the time.

So now, here she is, in bed with the best immediate prospect, and he is basically clueless.

And wouldn't shut the fuck up.

"This might sound odd, but I get really turned on by quiet."

"And I like it on top. Especially with a guy that is built for it."

She needed at least two solid minutes.

She wasn't thinking of England - never been to the UK, oddly enough.

She was thinking of Mickey Rourke. Young. In Diner. Body Heat.

Yes.

Tonight it would take Mickey. Minimum.

Diner was great. At least it wasn't Barfly.
Funny, I watched 9 & 1/2 Weeks, last night.
Well, you sure know how to make a lady feel special. Never read a lady's diary. Kills the moment. Are you sure it was England? I thought it was Scotland. Or Whales. Definitely not Ireland. Mickey never struck me as being the real masculine type. More like a boy who never got his way, therefore, making women feel inferior, needy, wanting. Not my type. And, he's scrawny. Liked this post a lot.
On a really bad night, it would take more than Mickey.

Something from the dark side.

Unspeakable acts, &c.

It's there. Save it for a story, Cathy GF. :)
Scarlett.... His role as Teddy the Torch in Body Heat was fantastic.

Diner also.

I dunno what women like, but speculate that a certain type would go for young Mickey.
'you can leave your hat on,' great song. clueless is not good.
"This might sound odd, but I get really turned on by quiet."
bwwwahahahahah ;D almost peed myself
I once (ok, more than once) dated a dummy. I have thought those exact words. You know when you are out at dinner with them and their lips are flapping away, and you are thinking "oh god, you so cute, if only you would just. shut. up."
@Julie. You said what I wanted to say, only better!
I do too, get turned on by quiet, not think of England. I liked this one Nick, you have a great woman's inner voice, makes me wonder if you are truly a guy.
