Choice Tales from the Vale – (307) Strange Bedfellows

 

It was a few minutes after seven when Jack White was handed the key for room 12 at the Lamb and Flag and as the rather gruff receptionist returned to the bar a small figure entered through the street door dripping wet from the heavy rain and stopped dead when she caught sight of him.

“Jack White” she said coldly, “What are you doing here?”

“I’m staying here” he replied

“Oh great” she snapped

 

Neither of them were happy to be there, and the only reason they were was because the heavy rain and the resulting flooding had closed the railway, but more than that they were unhappy because they didn’t like each other.

 

They took consolation in their impromptu meeting and incarceration by overindulging at the bar and with each subsequent drink they found that their companions began to look more attractive and their companionship less onerous, so it was perhaps not surprising that they ended up in her room.

 

It was a funny old life, he thought, as he looked down at Suzy’s naked body as she wriggled like a fish on the riverbank as he fucked her to that perfect point of climax, and when they came together, and she screamed.

 

The next day, although he was physically a spent force, his mind was awash with erotic images of his time with Suzy Ford, or perhaps that should have been the times with Miss Ford.

So, on the way to the station he called into the newsagents and picked up an energy drink to sustain him on the journey home.

Although they walked to the station together he and Suzy were getting separate trains as they lived in opposite directions and once they had bought their tickets they both went their separate ways with just a cheerio, as they had said a proper good bye back at the hotel. 

 

Although the station was open, and trains were running there was a greatly reduced service due to the previous day’s cancellations, which resulted in a rather lengthy wait on the platform.

He noticed Suzy didn’t have to wait long for her train and when she saw him she gave him a wave from her carriage.

 

After what Suzy had put him through, he knew the motion of the train would very quickly lull him off into a coma, and he only lasted about ten minutes before the long blinks set in, which quickly led to sleep.
