What The Heart Wants

Chapter 1 Janice was ready to turn around and smack the s**t out of whoever it was that had come behind her and tightly wrapped their hands around her waist as she stood at the bar deciding what her drink of choice would be. “When did you get back!?” Janice asked in disbelief as she turned and stared into Jared’s hazel brown eyes. She went back in time as she looked at his moist, thick lips that she had loved so much as they kissed her body, which seemed like only yesterday. His chestnut brown face was adorned with the five o’clock shadow she had enjoyed feeling as it rubbed against her thighs as he made his way in between her legs. As she continued to reminisce, she noticed that his body was in the best shape that she had ever seen it. Jared was never the one to ignore his physique and it looked like fitness was still one of his first priorities. Janice’s body naturally took its place in his arms as she adjusted in his strong hold while now facing her welcomed intruder. As her body pressed against his, she could feel the hardness of his stomach against hers, as well as the growing hardness of his manhood against her thigh. Seduced by Jared’s presence, Janice slowly inhaled the scent of his Armani cologne that she was always so intoxicated by and if it wasn’t for him ending the silence, there was no telling what she may have done to him right there. “I arrived yesterday,” Jared said, his voice smooth and deep, something that always seemed to make Janice wet instantly and today was no different. “I am staying at the Embassy Suites Hotel a few blocks away, I am here on business,” Jared said as he continued to hold Janice in his tight embrace. “You better be careful coming up behind women and putting your hands around their waist,” Janice playfully boasted. “You might get f****d up! How did you know where to find me anyway?” "Woman, I know you will always be in this spot at the same time every Friday," Jared said as he loosened his grip, but still not letting go of her waist. In that moment, Janice wanted nothing more than to grab Jared, and kiss his lips, she wanted what she had so long ago with him. She longed for his touch, his protective way, and for him to be in between her legs once again. She wanted what she felt in his pants, to be inside of her. Before she passed out from Jared’s overly sexy presence, she stepped away from him and grabbed the dirty martini from the counter as the bartender sat it down. As Janice sipped her drink, Jared looked at her intently, he missed her just as much as she missed him, if not more. He missed the way her thick ass felt against his d**k as he f****d her from behind on their many encounters. Janice was a sexy, golden, brown-skinned woman who worked hard to keep her 5’6” frame toned and thick in all the right places. She rocked a stylish, short haircut that laid exactly right against her pear-shaped face. The red dress that she wore fit perfectly around her ass that Jared wanted to grab from the moment he spotted her as he walked in the bar. Her four-inch stilettos gave her a few extra inches which put her almost at the perfect height for him to kiss her on her shiny thick lips. "Slow down woman," Jared said, as he laughed and motioned for the bartender to come and take his order. “Vodka red bull, and another one for the lady,” he said while laying two twenty-dollar bills on the counter. For the next hour and a half, Jared and Janice talked about their lives now, which had both changed drastically. Each had grown in their careers that they loved so well, and their personal lives had changed a great deal as well. Jared was now living in Miami working as a freelance software developer and was in town working on a project with a well-known legal firm. Janice, still living in San Francisco, was still working as a news anchor at a large and extremely well-known news station. Being that it had been almost two years since they had both seen each other, it was a bit awkward when conversations started about their personal lives. As it would turn out, neither was seriously seeing anyone, only meaningless dates here and there. Janice and Jared only officially dated for seven months out of there five years of knowing each other. Even though they loved each other, they decided that being friends (with benefits), worked out better for the two of them. Both had very demanding careers, and a long-term relationship never found a place between them. Before Jared turned to freelancing, he worked as a contractor, which is what sent him on a project in Miami almost two years prior. Janice’s career blossomed in the broadcasting field, and she was now one of the top reporting news anchors at the station. Her ten years in the business was finally paying off. She was now sitting in a wonderfully comfortable, well-earned, and lucrative income bracket and even though she hated to see him go, she knew her career was in San Francisco, at least for a few more years. “So, what are your plans for the remainder of tonight?” Jared asked after finishing the last of his fourth vodka red bull. Janice, who was nursing her third dirty martini knew how she would like to spend the remainder of the night, but she would certainly not be the one to say it. Being that she was damn near drunk, she did not know how much longer she could trust herself around this man, especially in closer quarters. “It has been a long day for me, I think I will go home, relax, and find a movie,” she said as she traced the rim of her glass with her finger before licking the liquid that she had collected. “I see,” Jared said softly, his smile intoxicating as he reached for his wallet. Janice thought she was going to have an orgasm on the spot as Jared’s muscular arm brushed against hers as he reached for the bill that the waiter laid on the table. “I’m only a few blocks away if you’re up for one more drink, you should not be driving anyway right now,” he continued while watching intently as she took a long swig of her now warm drink, saving the olive for last. With three strong drinks in, Janice tried her best to stay composed. However, she aced acting as though she was not sure about the offer as she continued to make excuses, all the while knowing she would gladly join him for a nightcap. “I promise I will not hold you captive; I am just not ready for this night to end yet,” Jared said through very seductive eyes. Me either Janice thought as she agreed to finally take him up on his offer.
