    ... an ice cream and seeing the great city with renewed vision. I marvelled at the temple of Castor and Pollux and the Basilica of Maxentius. I wandered from place to place until the sun glowed through the peepholes of the great amphitheatre and it was time for tea. I had not long to wait before I could enjoy it with my lover. ********************** I had always wanted to wait at an airport arrivals lounge with one of those hand-written cards that said ‘Jones’ or some other name, which only meant something to their unknown passenger. I knew my Elizabeth, but I still wanted to be that person. I waited by the barrier, all smiles with ‘Miss Sexy Pants’ written on my card. Then there was that period of anticipation as I waited for her to appear. The increased heart rate, the excitement and expectation. Elizabeth had brought a little suitcase, breezed through customs and before I knew it, we were standing in the sunshine. I wanted to whisk her back to the hotel, but to do that without first pausing to imbue the romantic ambience of Rome would have been to miss a little of life’s intoxication.

I looked at Elizabeth, waiting for her reaction as she was met by the sight of a loose blanket of rose petals on the bed. She squeezed my hand and kissed me again as we moved to the bed, tumbling on to the duvet. Her kisses were all at once sprinkled over my face and neck. We tore at each other’s clothes as the passion between us began to erupt. I couldn’t get her top off quick enough and Elizabeth pulled at the hem of my top. I wriggled out of my skirt as she drew the zip down on hers, and then we rolled together on the bed, dressed only in our bra and panties. I gathered her hair between my fingers as she kissed my neck, nibbling the soft recess between my collar bone and shoulder. Our fingers were stroking and gliding over each other’s bodies, working up to the random moment when bras were unclipped and panties gently slid over ...
