One Wild Night

Tom looked at Lucy, not knowing what to say for a moment. What did she mean by the CEO had reminded her of him? He had tried to ensure that he didn't act like himself in any way. He had ensured to follow the five rules of disguise which relied on the basic human senses.

Do not look or dress like yourself; His outfit as Thomas Hank was completely different from how she knew Tom Handy. His eyes, hair, beards, glasses, and clothes had all been different.

Do not smell like yourself; He had used a different cologne and deodorant just so that he smelled entirely different from what she was used to.

Do not sound like yourself; He had tried to make sure his voice sounded completely different too, even though his throat was feeling funny now because he had spent more time talking than he had planned to.

Do not taste or feel like yourself; Thankfully both of these had been avoided as they both did not get involved in any activity that involved kissing or touching each other.

So what was she talking about? Tom wondered, his heart beating very fast at the thought of being discovered when he was just beginning to find his way into her heart.

"Why do you look so startled?" Lucy asked with a curious smile as she looked into his face.

"I don't know. I guess I'm just feeling kind of flattered and confused at the same time. What exactly about the CEO reminded you of me?" Tom asked with a shaky smile, as he looked at her with interest. He needed to know if it was something he could work on so that he could correct it the next time he meets her.

"Well, you both have the same physique and similar complexion. I swear if you were to be disguised as the CEO, you could easily pass for the CEO," Lucy said with a nod and pushed her glasses up the bridge of her nose as she looked at his face like she was searching for other similarities.

"That is interesting," Tom said with a small smile, "Maybe I should consider disguising myself as the CEO one of these days. What do you think?" Tom asked with a grin, and Lucy chuckled.

"You wouldn't dare. Believe me when I say the CEO can be ruthless when he wants to be, and you don't want to get on his bad side," Lucy warned.

"Whatever. Enough about your charming CEO, I want to hear about something fun," Tom said as he took one of her hand in his and patted it.

"Something more fun, like?"

"Like how much you missed me?" Tom asked playfully, wanting to change the subject to one that was of interest to him.

"Hmm... I don't know. I suppose you were just on my mind all through the day," Lucy said thoughtfully, adjusting her glasses once again.

"And what were you thinking about me?" Tom asked, leaning forward in his seat such that his face was only a few inches away from hers while he still held her tiny hands in his.

"I was just wondering about you. What you were doing, if you have eaten, how the work was going, bla bla," Lucy said with a shrug that told him she didn't think it was a big deal.

"And do you often think about your twin, or Sonia all day that way?" Tom asked, wanting to know if she often thought of her loved ones generally like that, or if this was special.

Lucy considered the question for a moment, and her heart skipped a beat when she realized what he was driving at. It wasn't normal for her to think about him that way, "I guess I'm taking this temporary girlfriend thing a little too seriously," she said with a burst of awkward laughter while Tom stared at her in amusement.

"I think you are doing just fine. So tell me. Do you?" Tom asked as he reached out to pat the side of her face.

Lucy blinked at him, and it was all she could do not to lean into his touch. She cleared her throat and leaned back in her seat, "I don't. So tell me about your day. Was it very stressful? Do you need a foot rub or a massage?" She asked, wanting to change the subject once again as she didn't feel very comfortable with the idea that she was beginning to care more than she was supposed to.

"Did something happen?" He asked, wanting to know the reason for the sudden change. Not that he was complaining, but why was she being so open and caring all of a sudden? Perhaps she was beginning to fall in love with him for real? He really hoped that was the case. The sooner she fell in love with him, the earlier he could put a stop to all the lies and live happily with her as he wanted to.

"Something like what?" Lucy asked with a slight frown as she self-consciously reached out to adjust her glasses.

"You are acting so differently, so I'm just curious to know what prompted the change," Tom explained, making Lucy look at him thoughtfully for a moment.

"Is it good different or bad different?" Although he had said that she was doing just fine and had insinuated that she do not change a thing, she still needed to know if she was overstepping her boundaries this time so that she could get back on track.

Tom's eyes lit up at her question and he smiled at her, "Excellent different! You are actually behaving like my girlfriend," Tom said, making her relax a bit.

"And you like it?" She asked cautiously.

"I love it," Tom said with a nod, and she gave him a bright smile, feeling relieved that she wasn't doing too much.

"I'm glad to know that I'm learning fast. So tell me, what is it going to be? Foot or body massage?" Lucy asked again.

Tom looked at her for a moment, "You don't have to worry about giving me a massage, I'm fine. All I need is a good night's rest, and I will be good," Tom assured her.

"You are sure your body doesn't ache anywhere?" Lucy asked with a concerned frown, and this time Tom pulled her closer to himself. Butterflies fluttered in Lucy's belly as she allowed him to pull her to himself.

"I love how you are so concerned about me, but you should know that even if my body aches, I feel better merely by talking to you and being close to you like this. You are medicine to me," Tom said in a husky voice as he gazed into her eyes, while she looked back at him, her heart pounding in her chest.

Medicine? What were they doing? What were these words he was saying to her? Lucy mused as she watched him, unable to break away from his gaze.

Tom reached out carefully and took off her glasses, and without breaking eye contact with her, he dropped it on the table near them, "Have I told you that your eyes remind me of beautiful jewels?" Tom whispered as he brought his head forward, making Lucy's heartbeat skyrocket.

Still holding her gaze, he slowly moved his hands up her arm and used his thumb to caress her skin. Lucy swallowed, as she tried not to let her eyes dart to his lips. Right now she wanted to be kissed by him. She had no idea why, but she just wanted to lock lips with his, and have his hand all over her.

Tom watched as her tongue darted out of her mouth to wet her lips which suddenly felt dry, despite the lipgloss on them, and his eyes stayed on her lips, "I'm trying not to go further than this, but you make it hard when you do that," Tom confessed as he looked into her eyes.

"What if I want you to go further than this?" Lucy asked in an unfamiliar voice, surprising them both with her unexpected question.

Tom looked at her face with searching eyes as though trying to know what she was thinking, "Do you want us to take things further?"

Lucy gave him a tentative nod as her heart kept beating wildly in her chest. She was certain he could hear her heartbeat if he listened closely enough.

"What do you want me to do?" Tom asked as he leaned forward and placed his head in the crook of her neck as though he wanted to whisper something into her ears, "Tell me what you want."

Hearing him whisper that way into her ears in his husky voice, and his breath fanning her neck, Lucy felt warmth spread all over her body to her toes which curled at the silent promise she could hear in his voice.

"Don't hold back anything, Lu. It's just the both of us in here," Tom assured her.

Lucy's heart beat fast in her chest as she tried to make up her mind on what she wanted. Did she want him? Yes, she did. She didn't want to lie to herself anymore or deny what she wanted. She was undeniably attracted to him, and the sooner she acted on the attraction, the better for them both.

Their relationship was temporary anyway, so it was best she made the most of this opportunity to do all she wanted before he moved on to the lady he... No. She wasn't going to think of him being with any other lady right now. At the moment he was hers, and hers alone, and that was all that mattered.

Throwing all caution to the wind, Lucy summoned courage and cleared her throat, "How about I show you instead?" she asked as she held his shoulder and pushed him back slightly so that she could look into his face.

Show him? Tom mused, but before her words could register in his brain Lucy grabbed the front of his shirt and pulled him down on her before crushing her lips to his.

Although she wasn't an experienced kisser, Lucy tried to take the lead this time as she kissed his lips and nibbled on the edges. She pushed him back on the seat once again and straddled him this time as she continued to kiss him.

Tom felt his heart tumble wildly in his chest as he let his shy girlfriend take control of the situation. Tom kissed her back passionately while also trying to match her pace so as not to scare her. His fingers moved to her hair and he took off the hairband which held her hair in a ponytail, causing her curly long hair to fall in cascades over her shoulder as he buried his fingers in her silky soft hair. This was one thing his fingers had always itched to do.

Combing the fingers of his right hand through her hair, Tom let his left hand find its way under her shirt and he caressed her abdomen with his warm hands as he slowly made his way to her boobs.

Lucy moaned softly when his fingers connected with one of her nipples and she deepened the kiss while letting her hands move freely over his body.

"Are you sure you want this?" Tom asked against her lips as he teased her nipples, making her struggle to open her eyes so she could meet his gaze.

Looking into his eyes with her desire glazed eyes, Lucy let out a shaky breath as she broke the kiss, "I want you."
