Tortoise Tango-- Mary Wine

He let her feet down but held a solid arm around her waist. The water was already hot and bubbly. A little mutter of delight slipped out of her mouth as she sat on the edge of the tub and dipped her bare feet into the warm water. Joe couldn’t help but grin as he watched her. She played with the bubbles before kicking her feet in the foam. Her face was radiant as her eyes sparkled and little giggles came through her lips. She pushed off the edge of the tub and right into the water in her pajamas. The tank top and short set instantly turned transparent where the water hit the fabric. Amber didn’t take the time to notice, she was too busy being happy.

Amber didn’t take the time to notice, she was too busy being happy.
This was so much better then her bed! Amber felt her body loosen up and her blood start flowing through her veins again. It was like her entire circulatory system had been limping along with huge lumps flowing through it. She rolled her shoulders and sank down in the water to let the heat work on the knot sitting over her spine where the chair had hit it.
A male foot stepped into the tub and she looked up to discover Joe joining her in the hot water. Her lips pressed together as she stared at the magnificent example of manhood he displayed without a single stitch of clothing on his body. Dark curly hair covered his chest and his abdomen where his **** stood out from his body in blunt display. She just couldn’t help but look at that swollen rod. The large head was ruby red with a small drop of fluid sitting in its slit. He lowered his second foot and it bounced before Joe sat down and his **** disappeared beneath the water. Amber jerked her eyes up to his face to find him watching her. He suddenly laughed at her.

"I love the way you blush."

Well, she hated it! The **** habit turned her face the same shade as her hair and even if a person was color-blind, she doubted they’d miss her face changing shades. Snip moved past the patio, making her eyes widen as she realized that Joe's team of cloak and dagger action men were currently watching them.

"What are you doing in here?' Her hands fluttered as she tried to think of a way to state the most pressing part of her concern. 'Ah…like that?'

"Like what? You referring to me being naked, bare, maybe even raw?"

Amber shoved her hands in the water and sent a wave of it at his face. It hit him right across his nose but he shook his head and grinned at her. "Your friends are watching us!"

"They’d better be, the governor isn’t paying them to sit on their seats."

"But you’re naked."

His lips twitched as he lowered his torso into the water and groaned with appreciation for the hot water. "Trust me, Amber, they know what a **** looks like."

Well fine! He was telling her she was being ridiculous, and in a really testosterone sort of way she supposed he was right. Didn’t guys all have some kind of locker room code that said seeing each other in the buff was just manly? "Sorry, I forgot that women have manners, that’s all."

Joe leaned against the side of the hot tub and let his eyes trace her blush again. "Honey, if you think a wooden door masks all those little sexy sounds you make, you’re wrong. My men would know exactly what we were doing."

"I am not into public displays." Oooh, but the idea made her nipples tingle. Her body surged with ideas that bordered on taboo as her mind flatly refused to consider changing her decisions. But her eyes roamed over his chest and the ridges of muscle sitting so close to her fingertips. Her memory decided to replay the image of him stepping down into the tub and the hard erection he was hiding beneath the foaming surface.

The things her mind chose to remind her that that erection did to her, made her body shiver before she felt fluid rushing to her passage. Jesus! Somehow, giving in to the urge to have sex with Joe made it impossible for her to ignore any further impulses about him and his hard body. The **** hidden by the hot tub bubbles made her weak as she thought about how simple it would really be to take a little step and reach out until her fingers curled around its hard length. Ohh…and it would be hard too. Her fingertips would tell her exactly how delightful that stiff flesh would feel slipping up into her body as the hot water swirled around them.

"You could burn me with those eyes, baby."

Her lips formed a round expression of surprise right before Amber took a jerky step away from him. She slipped on the bottom of the smooth fiberglass tub and went towards the ground. Joe plucked her up just before her head went under the bubbles.

Amber listened to her own moan and for once didn’t blush. She had been so right! His **** was hard beneath the bubbles and it burned into her belly making her snap her teeth together to hold back a whimper. Her hands smoothed over his chest as she refused to keep her fingers away from his skin. He just felt so **** good!

Joe’s lips brushed her neck before stopping next to her ear. His hands moved over her bottom as that hard **** burned against her. "Games can be a whole lot of fun, baby. Right here, I could slip into that tight little body of yours and see how long you could keep your lips closed." One of his hands gripped her thigh and lifted it. His **** slipped between her open legs and lay against her burning sex. There was nothing between them but some wet fabric and temptation screamed at her to take a wild chance and just give in to Joe’s words.

His mouth caught hers as she struggled to get closer to him. His arms held her solidly against him as she felt his hands stroke her bottom and press her hips towards his cock.

"Easy, baby. I don’t really care but I bet you might if I took you right here." Her eyes were dazed with desire as Joe savored the soft cheeks of her bottom sitting in his hands. His **** raged with the knowledge that she was bare under her little pajama shorts, all he had to do was push the fabric aside to touch her *****. He wanted to—God! He wanted to **** her right then and make sure every man on his team heard her cry out as he pleasured her.

He was an animal but fought against the urge to demonstrate it so publicly.

His arms caught her up and his body rose out of the water in the same motion. Amber landed against his chest as he carried her out of the hot tub and back towards the bed she’d been so determined to leave. Now it looked inviting with the door that could be closed to keep the rest of the world away.
