Shawn

My nerves were on one for sure now. I didn't know who was about to walk through that door, but the look on Janet's face was definitely making me nervous about it. I sat there waiting for her to return. When she did, she walked back in with Wissam. I'd never meet him in person but I definitely knew who he was.

Her body language was different now. She looked very uneasy. He was carrying a huge bouquet of roses for her. He seemed sort of confused by my presence and I realized that he most likely had no idea who I was. What reason would she have to tell him about me?

So I stood up, feeling the polite thing to do was to greet him as they entered the room. I waited for Janet to say something, but she took a moment, I think to process Wissam and and I being in the same room.

I didn't know where they were with their divorce, I'd only heard rumors. I wasn't there to judge her or assume anything. But I was beginning to feel very territorial and I tried quickly to check myself.

"Wissam," Janet finally spoke. "This is Shawnette Heard." She said and smiled sweetly in my direction. "Gifted choreographer and a really good friend of mine. We shared the stage for almost half my life."

I smiled proudly. Her words had put me at ease and I felt comfortable enough to approach him and extend my hand to shake his.

He just looked at me for a moment, smiled slightly and nodded. He didn't even speak to me. He brought his attention back to Janet.

"Is your visit with your friend going to be over soon? I'd like to spend time with you before I have to go out of town again. The nanny emailed me. Our son misses his mother." He said and sat the roses down on the chair next to him.

"He misses his father too. I asked her when was the last time you FaceTimed or even called him and she said it's been nearly a week, on top of being gone for weeks at a time Wissam?"

"What part of, I have to work, do you not understand?" He said slightly raising his voice before glancing at me quickly and remembering that I was still standing there.

"And what do you call what I'm doing? I maybe away a lot but I see my baby every single day. Even if it's just over FaceTime. Everyday Wissam." She said glaring at him. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Then she looked at me. "Shawn," She said.

I felt like I knew what she was going to say, so I spoke first. "I think I'm gonna go. I know you have an early flight. It was really nice catching up with you." I said. Wissam's eyes were on me now. I could tell he was trying to figure me out.

Oh now you see me? I thought as I grabbed my stained shirt and shoes. I walked towards them I glanced down at the loosely wrapped and shook my head. I grabbed one rose from the bunch. Naturally the lyrics to one of Janet's songs made its way into my mind.

"Send me two dozen roses, I think that's beautiful, but a single rose is so romantic." I recited, handed it to Janet and looked at Wissam. "Her words, you should pay more attention. Enjoy your night." I said and walked away.

My heart was pounding. I had been completely out of line and I didn't want to cause any trouble for her. Regret was hanging over my head as I walked towards the door. Footsteps forced me to stop and turn around to see who was trailing me.

"Shawn wait." Janet said as she stopped in front of me. She shook her head. "I don't want you to go. I'll get him to leave, just please stay. I want more time with you before I have to go." She said as reached out and took me by the hand.

"You sure?" I asked. She nodded and I smiled with relief. I just automatically assumed she wanted me to go. Holding my hand tight, she walked me back into the living room with her. Wissam was still standing in the same spot. Janet looked at me and at him again.

"Wissam, I've told you before that you can't just pop up on me whenever you want. It doesn't work that way. You should have called first. So unless this has anything to do with Eissa you need to go. Besides, Shawn and I have a bit more catching up to do." She said giving me a look that only I could understand, a look that made my knees weaken. "How long has it been again?" She asked and smiled.

I gulped. "S- Sev seventeen years." I said nervously, making her laugh. He glanced back and forth between us like we were crazy, then looked over at the empty wine bottle and glasses sitting on the coffee table.

"You're drunk.What have I told you about drinking?" He said and grabbed her by the arm.

"Is there a fucking problem here?" I said and pushed his hand away from her. Janet stepped in between us.

"Shawn it's okay." She said.

"I'm sorry, do I know you? Are you relevant to this in any kind of way?" He snapped.

I stepped to him, Janet was holding on to my arm.

"Nah you don't know me, but grab her that way again and I promise you will." He looked at me and smirked.

"She's a feisty one, your friend here." He said, glanced at Janet and smirked.

"You have no idea." She said.

He put his hands up as sign of surrender and backed away from us. "Fine," he said. "Go have you're little girls night, but don't bother to call the next time you're feeling lonely."

Wissam snatched up his coat and headed for the door. I glanced at Janet. She looked a bit embarrassed but all the negative energy left the room when the door closed with him on the other side.

"I'm so sorry about that." She said as she began to explain. "We're not together, but he's familiar and I have needs and..." I walked towards her slowly shaking my head.

"Janet stop" I said. "You don't owe me any explanation." She took my hand and lead me back to the couch.

"But I want to explain. I want to be completely honest with you." She said. "Shawn after everything we've been through, after everything you've been through, I don't want you thinking that I'm trying to play with your emotions." I took a deep breath. "I'm saying this because if I don't tell you what I feel right now, I might scare myself out of saying it." She thought about her next words carefully. She looked me in the eyes. "The day you left, my heart left with you Shawn. I've never been able to forgive myself for not chasing after you." She shook her head trying to blink away the tears. "I never thought I'd see you again and then there you were, just a few feet away from me at the concert the other night." She leaned into me, close enough to feel her breath against my lips. "And now," She continued breathlessly, making me shift in my seat. "Now you're right here, in front of me, and I'm not going to lie to you, I'm having an extremely hard time keeping my hands to myself. "Can I have you Shawn?" She asked.

I was lost in her and when I didn't respond, she did it. She leaned in and kissed me. Her lips were just as soft as I remember. She pulled away and stood up in front of me.

Her beautiful face was like a dream looking down at me. I held onto her hips teasing the hem of the T-shirt she was wearing. My finger slipped beneath it and grazed the soft skin of her stomach. She gasped and grabbed my hands hesitantly.

"What is it J?"

"I uh, I have this scar, from my delivery with Eissa. I can't seem to get it to fade away. It's why I never show my stomach anymore." She laughed and tried to make a joke of it. "This old body doesn't heal they way it used to, ya know?" She said with a slight smile.

"I wanna see you." I said. She pulled her shirt off and tossed it to the side.

She wouldn't look at me at first.

"You're beautiful." I said as I began to kiss her stomach.

"God." She said and straddled my waist.

She caressed my face and just gazed at me for a moment as her thumbs traced my lips.

"I've missed you." She said softly as we became dangerously close to the point of no return. We knew exactly what we were doing. She began to slowly rock her hips against me. I gripped her waist. Janet was making me so wet as she brought her lips just inches away from mine. "I want you." She grazed my lips with her tongue. "Please let me have you."

"We're both still married." I said quietly as my lips grazed hers. My heart was beating fast as the words quivered from my lips. My fingers grazed the small of Janet's back before grabbing her ass by the hand full. She let out a low moan and grinder into my firm grip.

Janet

I could still taste the hint of mango on Shawn's lips. My hormones were ten steps ahead of my mind. I'd promised myself, no more acting impulse but slight lift of Shawn's hips again and I was sure that I'd soaked right threw my panties.

If were going to stop, it needed to be now.

"We can stop this." I said breathlessly as she showered my neck and shoulders with sweet, soft kisses. I bit my lip and tried to keep from moaning. "We can stop right now Shawn." I said again, wanting her to be sure. I pushed her back, forcing her to look at me.

She stood us up. My legs were tightly wrapped around her waist. Our lips were like magnets, hers tingling against mine as we moaned into each other mouths. There was no doubt in my mind that she wanted me just as much as I wanted her.

She laid me down on the bed. The weight of her body came down against me, making me aching for her. "Oh god." I whispered as I spread my legs for her. She rocked her hips against into me. I lifted myself, matching her every move. "I need to feel more of you." I said. Our clothes were becoming more and frustrating as we began to pull and tug at the layers.

It wasn't long before we stood there almost completely bare. Shawn was in a pair of burgundy boxers. She reminded me of red velvet cake, except all of her chocolate was exposed. "Damn." I said aloud.

She licked her lips as she examined every inch of me. The look in her eyes made my body thump. She made me felt so sexy as I stood there and let her take the image of me in.

"Just tell me how, when and where you want me and I'll be there." I said, drawing her to me almost instantly. Her skin was hot next to my coolness. I put my lips to Shawn's ear and whispered. "Do you wanna feel what you do to me?" I asked as I put her hand inside my panties. Her fingers slid over my clit making me gasp. I closed my eyes and let her hands explore me freely. She moaned in my ear as I coated her fingers with all my excitement.
"Your still the only person that makes me wet like this." I said as I moaned softly into the air.

"Take them off." She said. I complied and let them fall to the floor. As she continued to explore me, my hands trailed down her back and into her boxers wear I grabbed and dug my nails into her ass. I laid back against the bed and pulled her down on top of me.

Shawn's wetness seeped through her boxers against my thigh and it's was driving me crazy. I rolled us over and I was on top now. I began pull her boxers down slowly. She watched me as I kissed around her thighs, hips and stomach.

"Do you remember what this feels like?" I asked spreading her legs slowly. I watched her face as I kissed around her stomach and back down to her inner thighs. I was so anxious to touch it, my mouth was getting wet.

"Brace yourself baby." I said.

She was sweet on my taste buds as I thoroughly enjoyed her. Her back was arched as she slowly and softer caressed her bare breast. Her fingers were tangled in my hair, as I drove her insane with every flick and stroke of my tongue. Her body quivered beneath me as her moans grew louder.

Shawn looked down at me, pleasure lining her eyes as she gently brushed the hair from my face. I crawled up her body and captured her lips again. Her kisses always make my head spin.

She took my hand and put it between her legs where my fingers filled her with ease. She let out the most beautiful moan as she closed her eyes and let her head rest against mine.

Shawn's hand moved slowly up my thighs as I rocked my hips with anticipation.

"Please." I heard myself say as her fingers enter me. Her thrusts matched mine as I watched her face. Watching her was turning me own even more. Her eyes were closed, lips parted as she moaned loudly into the air. The tips of her fingers grazed my spot. I rocked my hips against her hand faster. She new that I was hers now.

Our bodies were shaking, our moans echoed through the room as we made love. I was coming. My body jerked and I begged for her not to stop. As we climaxed together as our cries of ecstasy filled the entire room. My world was spinning. I became overwhelmed with emotion and hid my eyes from her until I control myself.

Being with her again had reminded me of our first time. It reminded me of every time we were together. It was like my body had never parted ways with hers.

I was in complete bliss.
