What To Do?

As Alice got out of the dress, she realized that she had forgotten an important thing! She had been so distracted that she forgot to bring any clothes to change into! Pacing around a bit she tried to think of a way to ask Adam to pass her the clothes. But then she thought of the lingerie that was thrown on top of all the other luggage inside the bag and shuddered to even think of his big hands touching her things. She could ask him to get out of the room but then she could not be sure that no one was outside or there would be suspicions! She thought of the clothes that she had earlier borrowed from him as an idea struck her. Walking to the door, she slowly called out, "Adam?" But there was no reply so she asked a bit louder," Adam?"

Adam who had been waiting for this grinned widely before calling out softly," Yes baby?"

Alice rolled her eyes at the form of his answer, and complained," I have a perfectly fine name! And it is not baby!

Nodding, though no one could see him he obediently called out," Yes, not baby?"

Shaking her head at the incorrigible man, Alice ignored this small problem and went for the bigger one," Can you lend me your sweatshirt and track pants?"

Adam looked down at the set of clothes that he had placed on the bed, knowing she was going to need one and his grin widened even more! Taking his time, he answered," Sure babe. But then I would not have anything to wear. If you don't mind me roaming around shirtless and in my shorts, then you are more than welcome to my clothes!"

"Adam Perry! Get out of the room, I can come out and get my clothes from the bag! this is all your fault! If you had not distracted me then this would not have happened!" Covering his mouth, Adam picked up the pink velvet suit and walked to the bathroom door, before knocking on it. Just as she came close to the door, he could see the faint silhouette of hers through the door that was made of frosted glass. His throat tightening, he turned back and extended his hand, listening keenly as the door opened. In the next minute, the suit was snatched away from him. But the girl did not walk away after closing the door and when Adam turned around, he could still see the beautiful curves, lighting his imagination on fire.

Groaning, Adam wondered if he was a masochist! Why else would he torture himself?"

Shaking his head, he turned away and sat back on the bed when Alice called out," Adam? Why do you have pink nightwear? And isn't this a bit too small for you."

Staring at the ceiling as he tried to wipe his mind clean of dirty thoughts, he answered," Babe! You already have claimed one of my suits and refuse to return it! I especially packed this for you!" Giggling, Alice walked out of the bathroom and stood in front of him and said, "Thank you! My thoughtful friend! And now we can discuss sleeping matters. Since you are taller, you take the bed and I will sleep on the small couch over there!"

Adam looked at the small single couch that would not even hold a sleeping child and asked," You want to turn into a pretzel just to sleep? Miss Alice, you are really silly! We are both grown ups and friends. There is no need to bring discomfort to the other. Just choose the side of the bed you want and get in while I freshen up! I promise that I will not touch you!"

With that Adam picked his own blue colored velvet track suit and walked into the bathroom. Once the man was gone, Alice looked at the bed and then the closed door. It would be really petty of her if she now choose to still sleep on the couch. And he might even misunderstand. And so, she simply went to the left side and slid into bed, covering herself up with a thin quilt and closed her eyes.

A few minutes later, she heard the door of the bathroom open and then soon the room lights had been turned off and she felt the other side of the bed being occupied and his husky voice wish her a good night. Softly, she replied, "Good night."

But even as the room was enshrouded in the darkness and silence, sleep seemed to evade her and Alice stared at the wall on the opposite side lost in thought. Suddenly, she felt a soft touch on her arm and turned around, only to almost scream in horror to see Adam's face so close to hers. Before she could catch her breath, she heard him ask," Can't sleep? I have an idea? Would you like to play some adult games?"

And that is how, Alice and Adam spent the night playing Monopoly...where Alice the great 'businesswoman' lost badly to Adam...
