my turn to interject. “ That ’ s an excellent idea, but we better have some perimeters.
The innocence of a child sees only the good things that make their parents
special. It ’ s only much later through our very own difficulties, trying
to be husband and wife, that they see us as we truly are, very human and
exceptionally flawed. Guess you better cut the age off at twelve. ” I looked to Vic for approval.
    “ Agreed, D. Is that OK with you, Ms. Josie? ”
    “ That works, Victoria. I ’ m so glad you stayed. Good
minds think alike. ”
    I
grinned. “ Yes they do, ” I
whispered under my breath, “ except when it comes to getting D into my pants. ”
    “ Ants, honey we don ’ t have ants here, I assure
you, ” confessed a
rather confused Josie from across the table.
    “ Never mind, ” I
countered, biting my lip to keep from laughing, “ I heard what she said. It
has nothing to do with ants. Vic needs to get a life. ” Stumbling deeper into the abyss, “ It ’ s really not worth
repeating. ”
    You are so wrong, D . “It is too, for now.”
    “Of course, for now. How could I not see that one coming?” I
concluded, while gazing into Vic’s sparkling green eyes, all the while trying
to suppress my mischievous smile.

seeing Frank and the boys off to the airport, each carrying a goody bag of
Josie’s fresh baked treats, Vic and I began the process of putting our thoughts
on paper. Getting the Herald newspaper, as well as the local CBC station on
board, should not be a problem because of the very nature of this promotion.
What would be crucial, however, would be the anonymity necessary to maintain
confidentiality and integrity throughout the contest. Using only first names,
or better yet initials, would allow the chosen recipients to be honored, based
solely on the nomination of their children, followed up with due diligence as
to their socioeconomic condition. “A well thought out plan, I must say so
myself,” I mused, trying to pat myself on the back.
    Nibbling
on his ear seems like a good way to congratulate him . “ Good job, D. Again let me
say two heads are better than one when it comes to working out the privacy
issues that must be maintained. ” Reaching
under the table, I nonchalantly placed my hand on his inner thigh hoping to
spark an immediate reaction without breaking stride in my conversation. “ Speaking of privacy issues,
what say we adjourn to the room for a nap? ” Feigning a yawn, “ I ’ m suddenly experiencing a
sinking spell and could use a quickie ... I mean a short nap. ”
    “ You don ’ t quit, counselor, do you? ”
    You
catch on quick . “ As
long as I ’ m breathing, you ’ re breathing, nope. ”
    “ Come on, Vic, let ’ s take this conversation to
the room. I ’ ll never get Josie ’ s additions sketched out as
long as you ’ ve got your hand rumbling around my crotch and your tongue
finger deep in my ear. ”
    Bursting
through the bedroom door, I commanded, “ lay down on the bed, Vic.
Close your eyes and for once … listen! ”
    “ Here it comes. Damn you, D, another lecture, another
unfulfilled moment. ”
    “Shhh
... You’re beautiful, you’re flaming hot. I want you so bad that I can taste
you. For now, as you so aptly alluded to, would be the time to ravish you, to
give in to my wanton desires and yours. Sex complicates a relationship; lack of
sex complicates it even more. Random, lust filled sex, in my mind, somehow
cheapens it, especially, if you’re not careful. I want us to be careful. That
girlfriend is my, excuse me, our current dilemma.”
    I
motioned D to join me on the bed, gently patting the comforter before beginning
my rebuttal, “ look pal, we ’ re healthy, attractive adults here with normal, biological
needs. You ’ ve already said you want me. You damn well know I want you. ” Grabbing his hand, I deftly glided his fingers across my
navel, into the depths of my jeans.
    Pulling
my hand away, “ I remember a
