The Laws of Attraction

A good girl sits across from you.
A slight parted pair of glossy red lips.
A delicately raised finger … her moistened tongue.
Other visible glimpses of excitement.

“I’ve always said if you can’t be good, be good at it” she whispers.

And now a naughty girl sits beside you.
You might feel the quickening of her breath.
You might notice the toe one of her stilettos ever so subtly working the back of your calf.
It’s not even clear whether she knows she’s doing it.

Good, or good at it, she’s clearly a master of seduction.
Is it conscious or pure instinct?
Is she doing it to you? Or with you?
Is she pulling every string or caught up in the moment, a hapless victim of desire and excitement like you?

As she leans in and whispers something in your ear its all you can do to call for the bill and race her off.

But you don’t.

You stay and listen.
She tells you about her quirky hobbies.
Her wandering hands brush your chest and your thighs.
She tells wild tales of her unconventional upbringing.
She shares anecdotes, dreams and confidences that make you smile inwardly and outwardly.
She laughs with unabashed pleasure at your jokes and maybe you share other intimacies.

It’s a perfect first date, or third date … and every date is perfect.

And when the two of you are alone together and you shed your skins yet again … and her mouth is on you and around you … and your bodies blur at the edges where you intersect with each other …

Then it is clear that despite her poise and composure she is as reckless and spontaneous as anyone.
She is just as subject to the laws of attraction as you are.

And a good girl never breaks the law.
