Chapter 5 -- Blind Date Meet Dead Body

Jenner sat impatiently at the bar, dim lights glinting off empty beer glasses as music pounded in his ears. He checked the time, she was late, and started to consider his options. He could get up and leave or stay for another drink, perhaps if he was patient she'd show up eventually? He decided on the latter, then raised a hand to get the bartender's attention.

"Racking up quite the tab tonight J." The bartender cocked a brow.

"Yeah, I'm good for it though Nate, it's fucking payday!" with a wink Jenner accepted his new pint and Nate slipped away without another word.

"Jenner?" The small voice of a woman was barely perceptible from behind him and he spun around so quickly she leapt into the air. Her blond curls were shiny and voluminous, pouty red lips sent Jenner's heart racing and the dress that clung to her curves was the same shade of crimson.

"Oh, hi!" Jenner smiled and offered her the stool beside him.

"I'm so glad to finally meet you." Jenner had to lean in to hear her speak as she climbed into the tall seat. "You look exactly how I imagined you."

"Oh really?" Jenner smiled, "you're much sexier than I imagined."

The woman blushed and Jenner felt himself growing excited,. "I hope that's not too disappointing."

"How could I ever be disappointed by that?" Jenner blinked and took in the sight of his date a little more thoroughly. Her plump cleavage sent fire through his veins but he tried not to let his stare linger for too long.

"Well, I don't know. I guess some guys are intimidated by me?"

"Don't worry about it." Jenner grinned while Nate returned with crossed arms and Jenner looked down at Gloria. "Would you like a drink?"

"Sure," the woman said and Jenner couldn't help but notice her perfect white teeth. "I'll have what ever you're having."

Jenner nodded to Nate, who poured another pint of frothy beer and winked back at his favourite regular. "I have a bit of an embarrassing confession to make," Jenner said as the woman sipped her drink.

" Sorry?" She asked, leaning into him. "What did you say?"

"I said I'm a little embarrassed!"

"What? Why?"

"Well, we've been emailing back and forth for a while now and I still don't know your name!"

The woman covered her mouth as she giggled and leaned a little closer, her lips brushed Jenner's ear as she spoke in a soft tone. "Gloria."

"It's nice to finally meet you Gloria." Electricity spread through Jenner's body, starting at the place her lips had touched him, and he couldn't help but grin.

"It's nice to meet you too!"

The two sat and sipped their drinks for a little longer, smiling at each other and trying to make small talk over the sound of the music. "Your emails were so...intelligent and well written. It's rare that fan-mail is so properly edited."

"Thanks." Gloria licked beer off of her lower lip and Jenner couldn't help but feel a stirring in his pants. "But I'd consider my emails more than just 'fan-mail'."

"What?" Jenner cupped a hand around his ear, straining to hear Gloria properly.

"I said --" Gloria started but cut herself off. "It's really loud here!"

"You're right." Jenner nodded, downing the rest of his beer in anticipation for what would come next.

"Wanna get out of here?" Gloria asked and Jenner's heart leapt. "Maybe go for a walk or something?"

"Absolutely!" Jenner tossed some cash on the bar and hopped off his stool. Gloria hopped off her stool and as Jenner place a hand between her shoulder blades to lead her to the door he realized for the first time just how much shorter than him she was.

"That's much better." Gloria smiled as the warm evening air surrounded them both.

"Which way should we go?"

"Well...I was hoping you'd lead me?"

Jenner grinned and turned down a darker side street. "So Gloria, tell me what drew you to my blog."

"I just love the way you write!" Gloria seemed more alive outside, her stride was more energetic and her tone lighter, more melodic. "Especially that post from last week."

"You mean the woman from the alley?"

"Yeah, it must have been so exciting to discover a body!"

"It was..." Jenner thought for a second. "A new experience that's for sure."

Jenner blindly led Gloria down a series of streets, and she cling to his every word as they headed south towards the more vibrant and richly decorated homes of the wealthy.

"Where are we going?" Gloria finally asked and Jenner looked around him with a sigh.

"Well...I'm not quite sure." The street they now found themselves on was lined with well maintained Victorian mansions on their right and thick green trees on their left. A sign amongst the trees announced that they had come across a park whose gates were closed past sun set. "To the park I guess?"

"Are we allowed in?" Gloria asked and Jenner laughed at her.

"Not being allowed has never stopped me from doing anything before," Jenner said, hopping over the low brick wall that separated himself from the darkened patch of urban forest. He held a hand out to help Gloria who smiled as she accepted it.

"It's kind of spooky in here..." Gloria lamented as she pulled Jenner close.

"Oh, I took you for the kind of girl who liked spooky things..." Jenner smiled. "I guess I was wrong."

Gloria giggled as she linked her arm through Jenner's, allowing him to take her further down the gravel path that led through the trees, "No, I was just worried about you! You're not scared are you?"

"Never!"

"Good." Gloria grabbed hold of Jenner's hand and quickly pulled him into the trees themselves. Thin branches lashed at their faces and Jenner laughed as they trekked further and further away from the path.

"What's that smell?" Jenner asked as Gloria turned and kissed him.

"What smell? It's not me is it?" Gloria very unceremoniously sniffed her armpit and something about it made Jenner feel more at ease. This was not a woman who took herself too seriously.

"It smells like...death."

"Oh really?" Gloria grinned and pulled Jenner close. "Hot."

"You think so?" Jenner hunched his shoulders and wrapped his arms around Gloria's waist as they kissed, he pressed her up against a tree trunk and she moaned but he stopped." It's really strong though, don't you smell it?"

"Oh Jenner it's fine, probably just some dead raccoon, or a swamp or something. Just ignore it and kiss me!"

Jenner lifted Gloria off the ground and she put her legs around him, she bit his lip hard and he pulled back suddenly. "Ouch..."

"Sorry, too much?" Gloria asked, rubbing herself up against his body.

"No, it's fine." Jenner knelt down and placed Gloria on the ground, kissing her neck, making his way to her breasts as she giggled.

"You move quick," she whispered, rubbing a hand down his spine as he found the zipper on the side of her dress.

"Yeah, well, I don't like to waste time." Jenner peeled the dress down over Gloria's chest and she wiggled in the dead fallen leaves.

"I don't normally do this on the first date," Gloria said and Jenner ignored her as he kissed her bare stomach, continuing to slip the dress down over her hips and thighs.

"Yeah, me neither." Jenner finally lied as he removed the red dress all together and she lay on the ground in her underwear. The moonlight made her pale skin glow as she stared up at him, allowing him to probe her body with his eyes. Jenner lifted his arms and in a fluid motion Gloria raised his shirt up over his head, then pushed him off of her onto his back.

She climbed on top of him, grinding her hips against his as they kissed and she lifted her gaze to bury Jenner's head in her breasts. He revelled in the feeling of them, kissing them and lowering the straps of her bra with his teeth.

Gloria let out a yelp as Jenner lifted her up into the air. He tossed her back onto the ground and unzipped his pants as he separated her legs, feeling himself swelling with excitement as she started to push down her thong. Jenner groaned as he felt himself slip into Gloria, she moaned back and reached out to grab hold of extruding roots.

"You are so damn hot," Jenner whispered into her ear, nibbling on her earring as her wondering hands explored the ground around her.

Gloria just smiled at Jenner chewing on her fat bottom lip as he thrusted harder and faster. Her sounds of pleasure began to turn into grunts, then screams as Jenner put her legs over his shoulders. He propped himself up onto his knees and closed his eyes as he continued, only to promptly spring them back open as Gloria's screams of pleasure turned into one of shock.

"What?" Jenner asked as he looked down at her, following her line of sight. There, in the darkness, lay a grey and decaying body, a woman who'd been out in the trees for what looked like quite a while. Her eyes remained half opened, her limbs twisted in a way that suggested she had been tossed aside like a piece of trash. But most shockingly of all was her neck, the skin had been torn away from the right side, Jenner could swear he saw bone in the dim light.

"Don't stop!" Gloria finally whispered, pulling Jenner back down on top of her. She reached out and caressed the dead face, but Jenner tried hard to ignore it.

"What!?"

"Just keep going, please don't stop!"

Against his better judgement Jenner continued, watching Gloria watch the dead body as he thrusted between her legs. She writhed on the ground, moaning and screaming until together they edged towards an explosive climax.

"Oh God, that was so fucking awesome!" Gloria said through gasps for air as Jenner quickly stood up to find his clothes.

"No it wasn't!" Jenner said, shame filling him with an embarrassed heat.

"Of course it was Jenner! You can't deny it, that was the best sex I've ever had."

"What? Why? Because of her?" Jenner gestured back towards the dead body, the woman from the alley swam back into his mind as he tried to shake himself free of the guilt he was feeling.

"I thought you'd be into that kind of stuff..." Gloria's voice trailed off as she spoke.

"Yeah, well I thought you wouldn't be..." Jenner pulled on his pants and Gloria covered her breasts with her arm as she wiggled her thong back on. Jenner stopped and turned back to the body, grabbing hold of his strip of hair as he considered his options, "Jesus...we need to call the police."

"What? Why would we do that?"

"Because we just found a body!"

Gloria stepped closer to Jenner, still only wearing her underwear, "Jenner, think about it. Weren't the police suspicious enough when you discovered that lady in the alley? The man who blogs about murder happened to stumble upon one, now this? Look at that lady's neck! What do you think they'll do when they realize you've found another dead body, killed the same way as the first?"

Jenner rubbed his hands over his face, he felt Gloria touch his back and it made his gut quiver. "So what? We just...leave her here?"

"Exactly!" Gloria shook her head like it was a simple decision to make. "She's already dead, we can't help her, just let some poor guy and his dog find her later. There's no need to get yourself into trouble."

Jenner could feel his inner turmoil intensifying. He chewed his lip and closed his eyes, there was something inside him screaming to do the right thing but he pushed it aside. "You're a freak, you know that right?" He shoved Gloria away and went off to find his shirt.

"We're all a little freaky Jenner!" She called out as she bent over to pick up her bra.
