What Life Throws at You

I listened to her story and already figured out that she was blameless; except for faking her own death. My plan was never to arrest her. I just wanted to hear her side of the story and fill in the missing pieces. But unfortunately since I was gagged, unless I could get free, she would never know my intent or what I felt for her.

"I really wish it could have been different Richard. It would have been easy to fall for a nice guy like you. I promise I will call to get you free soon." She looked at me with tears in her eyes. She kissed my cheek and rose to leave. I thrashed on the bed a bit to get her attention and groaned around the gag. She sat back down next to me. God she was so beautiful!

"I hope you don't mind. I have to do this. Please don't yell out." She untied the gag and kissed me. I could taste her lips, mingled with her tears. I leaned in and the simple kiss exploded into a passion that I had never felt before. When it ended we were both left breathless.

I finally found my voice and I smiled. "I'll give you two hours to stop that Kelly."

She smiled slightly. "Please don't be angry with me Richard. I wish it could have been different."

I laughed and rattled the bed. "I like fore play as much as the next guy Honey, but I never intended on arresting you in the first place. I'm not even a cop anymore." Confusion knitted her features. "I just wanted to get your side of the story. As far as I'm concerned you are blameless and still the most beautiful woman I know."

"But, you know I use to be Lee, Richard."

"I know baby." I smiled. "I don't care!"

"You mean I'm not in trouble?" I shook my head.

"And you're not angry at me?"

"I will be if you don't kiss me again." Kelly squealed and kissed me, but this time her tongue played a major part. She pulled back. "You know if you were to untie me we could get down to business beautiful. "
