“Maybe it’s better if we run together,” challenged Dave, hoping that she would say yes.
Deciding that was better, than have him run behind her, Kate answered, “Ohkaaayyy……” Secretly, she was feeling her heart skip, hop and leap several beats. “It’s just a run, Juliet. Don’t read anything into this…”
A truce having been agreed on, they both continued to run in silence until they reached the lake. Umikot pa sila ng ilang laps around the lake, then walked back home, all in silence. The following day, lumabas ulit si Juliet to jog. Dave was waiting up for her. Like the day before, sinabayan sya ni Dave sa pagrun nya. At the lake, they both slowed down, and walked around to cool off. Juliet was still quiet, but Dave was following her lead.
“So what do I do next,” Juliet thought to herself. Awkwardly, she stood at the middle of the sparse grass, looking at Dave shyly. Dave drew to a stop a feet away or so from her, and gazing intently at her, lifted his left eyebrow, as if asking her what was next. Nailang si Juliet sa closeness nila, nahihiya dahil pinagpawisan sya sa pagtakbo. Kahiya, amoy-pawis!
“Even looking like that, I can eat you up!”
“Ay ang bastos mo naman,” pakipot ni Juliet, pero hindi naman nya nilayuan si Dave.
“Yeah, I am… I want to eat you, and taste you and nibble at you…lick at that little pulse on the base of your neck,” he daringly said, while they were standing in the middle of the park, walang pakialam kung may makarinig. Fortunately for Juliet, except for the metro-aide, bilang ang taong nasa park that morning. God, he wanted to do her! Bastos na kung bastos, but he strongly believed in the saying “Faint heart never won fair lady.” Anyway, they were adults, and he knew first hand that she liked orgasms.
Na-speechless si Juliet, for the first time in her life she had nothing to say! Napabukas na lang sya ng bibig, but nothing came out. “Close your mouth, Juliet, or I might think that’s an invitation,” Dave cheekily answered.
“Hellooo…conceited ka…I dont even know your name…!”
“Okay, fine. Juliet Expresion, I’m Dave Carino, 33 years old, and in perfect health, my latest medical certificate says. No communicable disease of any kind, last I was told. I have the certificate if you want to check.”
Recovering from her initial reaction, Juliet gamely replied,”What makes you think I have any need to check it? A dildo would do just as well, maybe even better.”
Dave laughed out loud, pleased that she could give as good as she gets. “A dildo can’t eat pussy well…can’t lick your delicious clit…in fact, it can’t even do this…” Without warning, Dave bent down, leaned to the right and delicately but lightly laid his lips on hers. Startled, Juliet just stood there, with her eyes wide open. Dave’s eyes were closed, and his tentative kisses gave way to little gentle nibbles on her lower lips. “Let me in, Jules,” he begged. He drew her nearer, and slipped his left leg between hers. With his hands, he angled Juliet’s head the other way, giving him more access to her lips.
Not thinking anymore, Juliet slightly parted her lips to let Dave’s tongue in, and let his tongue caress hers. Nanlambot ang mga tuhod nya, at the same time, bumilis ang tibok ng puso nya. He was so good at this kissing thing, her body was turning to jelly. The fact that they were doing this in public, oddly lent an air of daring to what they were doing. Kung hindi pa sila sinigawan ng magbabalot, Dave would have continued assaulting her with his kisses, and Juliet would have let him.
“I’m sorry, babe,” he offered, thinking more about her reputation than his.
“No, you’re not!”
“You’re right. I’m not, but this is hardly the place to … Listen, Juliet, do you think we can have dinner this evening, or maybe catch a movie…whatever, you want…?”
“Why?”
“What do you mean “why”? Did I not just make indecent proposals to you and kiss you in the middle of the park?”
“I meant why do you want to do this with me?”
“Obviously, I want to get in your pants. Cant deny that. But I do want to get to know the woman I intend to go to bed with…” Dave could not help the sarcasm in his voice.
“You want to take me out so later you can fuck me, is that it? Just because I let you grope me in the middle of the park doesnt mean I want to go to bed with you…”
“Jules, please keep this in mind…I know women, and I can read you. You not only let me kiss and grope you, you kissed and groped me back. I’m going to be a gentleman and not say anything more!”
Just as quickly as she caved in to his kisses, ganun kabilis nawala ang kahibangan nya. “Here is news for you, Mr. Carino! Ibahin mo ako sa mga babaeng kilala mo. Just because you can kiss the panties off me, doesnt mean I will let you into my bedroom.” Juliet turned her back on Dave, and strode off to the nearest curve para pumara ng taxi.
