She gradually looked away and withdrew her hand from his and said, “I know what you are thinking.”

“It’s not necessarily what I am thinking, but what I am feeling”, he quickly countered. “You have been distant ever since my sister’s wedding last weekend.”

The flood of emotions instantly came rushing back to her: the innocence of their first touch, the abruptness and passion of their kiss, the softness of the caress down her back, and the awkwardness and exhileration of their illicit rendezvous.

He interrupted, “You disappeared for awhile, did something happen?”

She slowly turned back to look into his eyes and timidly replied, “among your family, I discovered you are 2nd best in bed.”
