The afternoon delight -2

Their desire was so intense that Jeremy found every move of Linda arousing. From the way the water gulped down her throat to the way she flickered her hair, every little movement took him back to their hot night of passionate 

At the same time, Linda already knew that she found him attractive, but why did it feel so different and intense all of a sudden? She needed to change the subject quickly, "Uhm... I chose the pieces I needed and Freddy already arranged for someone to come get them before this day come to an end, but I have a question regarding one of the pieces. Do you mind if we go to your studio after this? Just to show you what I am referring to...", She knew deep down that being in an enclosed space was not a good idea at that moment, but what could she do? She had work to do and the show must go on. Jeremy nodded politely as he watched her clear up her plate, and finish their second round of drinks.

Once done, they made their way upstairs to his studio as per Linda's request. She showed him the piece she was referring to, which was not part of the marked sculptures, but she wanted to purchase it for the New York gallery. "Can you please sell me that one???"

Jeremy tried to reach for the piece in question but accidentally grazed through her hand, sending chills to both of them "Uhm...I-".

Unbeknownst to Linda, that small skin contact pushed way beyond his limits, he couldn't take it anymore, so he gave in to his desire, he unexpectedly reached for her waist and pulled her in for a passionate kiss which only lasted a few seconds. Regaining his sanity, he retreated, 'What am I doing?', he thought as he was letting go of her waist, but to both their surprise, Linda threw her arms around his neck, and softly whispered, "I get it. I think that Tonic is quite strong", she tiptoed to reach for his lips.

At this moment, they both realized that they had ignited a fire that couldn't be put out until they were both satisfied, on top of everything, they were doing it while completely sober, which confirmed their feelings for each other. The more their lips touched, the more ferocious the kiss became, soon Jeremy lifted Linda to the couch in the living area, where she sat comfortably on his thighs with her legs wrapped around him while his hands touched every inch of her back.

Meanwhile, Kimberly went to the bathroom and began dialing Maggie's numbers, she couldn't sit quietly after what she saw. 'WOW! They held hands and went up to his apartment, and just a while ago they were complaining about the heat. Maggie has to know about this!', 

Without wasting time on greetings, she spilled the tea, "Megs, What's the deal with you and Jeremy? Aren't you trying to work things out?"

The voice on the other side didn't sound impressed, on the contrary, she questioned Kimberly's intentions, "What is it now Kimberly Woods? What did he do now? I can't even be away for family matters without hearing gossip about Jay. You all should learn to mind your business, we are not even friends, I don't understand wh-"

Kimberly instantly regretted her decision, 'Why was I even trying to look out for her, she deserves whatever is coming', without letting her even finish, she sighed, then smirked, "You know what, I don't even know why I am doing this. Anyway, I hope he becomes happy with his new girlfriend, besides, she's much prettier than you; has a great personality, and unlike you, she's got her shit together. Goodbye." She hung up the phone in frustration.

But on the other end, Kimberly's words were not taken lightly, for some reason, Maggie found her to be genuine this time, but even if she wasn't, she had to make sure that Kimberly was not bluffing, the only way to do that, would be to travel back to Queenstown. "Hey, it's me...please pick me up at the airport in two hours...". She doesn't usually fly since it's a 5-hour drive, but she was in a hurry.
