~ 16 ~

     Hurriedly Anne washed dressed and was ready with minutes to spare. She
chose a sky blue thigh length dress which had a low cut collarless neck and
after slipping on a pair of white high heeled court shoes she inspected
herself in the mirror. The dress fitted well, hugging the subtle curves of
her small body and the cut away neck line exposed the beginnings of her
small breasts and their dividing cleavage. Satisfied, she picked up a small
white envelope hand bag and elatedly headed for Faiths suite.
     Politely knocking on the open door, and in answer to Faiths call, she
entered.  Faith was standing by her bed and she wore a long sleeved wide
collared cream shirt, a three quarter length pleated gabardine skirt and
matching camel coloured low heeled shoes. To Anne she was a vision of
majestic beauty. The silk shirt was loose fitting but it somehow clung and
accentuated rather than hid the full curves of her breasts and the narrowed
waistline of the pleated skirt in turn showed off the smooth widening of
her hips. She caught her breath as her desire for her surged back with a
vengeance. 'Faith,' she gasped quietly. 'you are so beautiful ...'

     Faith looked up and smiled and having made the final adjustment to her
cuffs and cuff links she opened her arms. 'To you maybe, ... and to me that
is all that matters ...' she said softly. 'Come here little Wabbit!' and
Anne, already halfway across the room, rushed in to her arms.

     'Oh Faith ... !' she gasped hugging her tightly, her cheek pressed
against the cushioning warmth of her breasts. 'I'm so happy!'  Faith kissed
the top of her head and stroked her back and shoulders as Anne clung to her
then Anne pulled away and looked up. 'You do look so beautiful to me
Faith.' she said with feeling. 'Really you do ...'

     Faith looked down at her and smiled. 'Well thank you, and so do you to
me...  but I fear in your case little one the old saying of love is blind
might possibly apply and they also say beauty is in the eye of the
beholder.'

	'I just can't believe everything that has happened ...' Anne said
smiling up at her and again, she put her arms round Faith and hugged her.

     'Mmmm, a lot has happened in the last twenty four hours hasn't it!'
Faith chuckled. 'but come on you, before I bundle you back onto the bed
again. Our public await us out there so let's go get 'em baby!'

     'I would prefer the bed.' Anne giggled and then with a small sigh went
on. 'but if you insist, we will go and the bed will have to wait until
tonight.' and turning away she said cheerfully. 'You know, from the moment
I saw you Faith, even from when I saw your photo I've been almost
permanently sexually turned on. It's very disconcerting!.'

     'Well that's something we have in common and yes, I do insist we go
now ...  but I also insist we come back as soon as is it is decent to do
so! Though I think perhaps an old lady like me might start to flag if our
passion carries on as it has!'

     'Tiring of me already?' Anne asked with a grin and sliding her fingers
between the buttons of Faiths shirt she stroked the smooth softness of
Faiths breasts. She dipped into the warm cleavage and tried to wiggle them
down into her bra but Faith took her wrist and held it gently, preventing
further advances but at the same time not moving her hand away.

     'I'll never tire of you.' she said. 'Unfortunately, quite the opposite
I'm afraid.  Right now I want you even more than before and I just hope
Mark doesn't keep us up late, I have plans for you ...' and despite Anne's
protest she then moved the hand away and straightened the
buttons. 'Beautiful Big plans for what I want to do to my Little Doe!'

     'Oh my!' Anne breathed and quickly she turned round and leant back
into Faith and taking her hands in hers pressed the palms and fingers
firmly over her own little breasts. 'I can't wait!' she murmured.

     	Faith hugged her, squeezing the breasts gently through the thin
material of the dress then moving a hand up to the bare skin above the neck
line she slipped it down beneath the top. 'Oh God ... ' she groaned.

     Anne, as she expected, wore no bra and gently cupping a little breast
in her palm Faith fondled its warm pliant softness and briefly trapping the
hard pointed nipple between her fingers she squeezed. 'There go another
pair of clean knickers!'  she sighed and pulling her hand free she gently
pushed Anne away. They both laughed and hand in hand, they left the room
headed for the lift.

	When the lift arrived Anne was disappointed to see it was already
occupied but this time by only two people. Not crowded enough for me to
stand close to her she thought and entering she positioning herself in a
corner slightly behind the couple whilst Faith stood in front of her. The
doors closed and as the lift started to descend Anne reached forward and
stroked then fondled the smooth curves of Faiths buttocks.  Faith turning
slightly watched with amusement as salaciously Anne scanned her body and
when their eyes met Anne smiled and licked her lips suggestively the
corners of Faiths mouth creased with a barely perceptible grin.

	When the doors reopened Faith let the other couple leave first and
as they departed Faith quickly slid her hand down Anne's back and squeezed
her bottom.  'From now on just you behave yourself!' she whispered and she
pushed her forward into the foyer.

	Standing still for a moment they both looked round and seeing there
was no sign of Mark, Faith said. 'Well, he's is not here so I guess we had
better go and find him.'

	'Hmmmm. Well if what you said earlier is correct' Anne answered
dutifully walking beside her 'I expect he is already in the bar, lets go
see!' She led the way and moments later they arrived at the reception room
that had been used the night before for the cocktail party. It was just as
crowded and as they manoeuvred their way to the bar Anne grinned as turning
to Faith she pressed herself unnecessarily firmly against her to let a
delegate pass them. Her breasts meshed firmly against Faiths arm and
looking up at her she demurely fluttered her eyelashes. 'Oh excuse me, I am
sorry Miss Hollings. I do apologise!'

	Faith raised a censuring eyebrow but as she was about to make a
comment she stopped herself as Helen Welling suddenly appeared at their
side.

	'Ahhh ... found you two at last!' she exclaimed. 'Come, Brian Mike
and I are over here, we've found a not too crowded corner ... '

	'...may I get you a drink Miss Hollings?' The curvaceous form of
Leanne had appeared out of nowhere and she gave Faith another admiring
scan, then half turning to Anne but still looking at Faith said
politely. 'and Miss Wilde, may I get you a drink?'

	Anne looked at Faith who grinned at her then quickly thanked Leanne
and ordered drinks for them both adding with a courteous smile. 'We'll be
over there in the corner!'

 	'No prob Miss Hollings, I'll find you.' Leanne said cheerfully
giving her what she hoped was her best 'come-on' look before turning away.

	 'I'll bet she will!' Anne muttered in a whisper to Faith. 'The
cheek of that woman, so help me God I'll ...' and standing on tiptoe she
whispered 'All I need now is Evania to descend on us and you can have an
orgy!'

	She smiled as Faith slowly shook her head in mock despair and
following Helen they reached the comparative sanctuary of an alcove were
they were greeted by Mike West and Brian.

	'How's things you two?' Mike asked cheerfully. 'Lost your voice yet
Faith?'

	Faith smiled. 'No, not quite but I'll be glad to have that drink.'
she joked.
	'I don't know how you do it Faith.' Brian said. 'I couldn't talk
for hours non- stop, let alone instantly translate as well!'

	'Oh it's not that bad really.' Faith answered. 'When you understand
a language you don't consciously translate the words and sentences. You
somehow just repeat them in the language you're thinking in.'

	'You mean you think in two languages at the same time?'

	'Well, well sort of ...' Faith answered looking a little
embarrassed. 'Almost, sort of ...!'

	'I think you're doing a brilliant job anyway Faith. I trust we are
looking after you?' and looking at Anne he asked. 'Anne any problems? As
far as I am aware there are none yet!'

	'Thank you no, no problems Brian. None that I know of anyway.' Anne
replied with a smile. 'Don't be a pessimist, think positive, have
confidence in your troops. All will be fine!'

	'It's not the troops I'm worried about, it's the delegates that
cause me nightmares!' Brian joked and they all laughed.

	'So, your looking after Faith are you Anne?' Mike grinned knowingly
as Brian and Helen turned away to speak to a couple who had just joined
them and Anne glared at him but before she could think of a reply Faith
replied for her.

 	'She's doing just fine thank you Mike!' she said with amusement
shining in her eyes.

	'Well that's good,' he said looking at Faith and wilting slightly
under the penetrating gaze he smiled. 'I'm glad, she's a very dear and
close friend.' he added quietly.

	'I know she is, she told me.' Faith replied. 'She also told me how,
how understanding you've been, lately that is!' They exchanged a brief
knowing glance and he was about to reply when Faith laughed lightly and
removed her pager from her pocket. 'Ooops!, my turn now.' she exclaimed
smiling at Mike. 'I've got Anne's problem!' and the three of them laughed
as Faith studied the dial.

	'The callers number is nine hundred, where or who is that?' she
asked turning to Helen.
	'That's Reception calling you Faith.' Helen replied. 'I'll go find
out who wants you ...'

	'No Helen, I'll go. I know my way now and it will be quicker than
trying to find a phone.' and excusing herself she eased her way back
through the crowd and left the room.

	At Reception Faith found Mark Howard stood at the desk. He smiled
and taking her arm took her aside.  'Sorry Faith, hope I haven't
interrupted anything but I needed to see you and didn't want to explain in
front of others. I've been called away and won't be able to make it for
dinner tonight. I will be back first thing tomorrow morning though.' and as
he spoke an Army driver appeared at his side.

	'Ready Mr Howard Sir?' the driver asked politely picking up a small
travel bag.

	Mark nodded to him and turned back to Faith. 'Must dash, something
has come up, I'll see you in the morning Faith but please if you can I
would appreciate it if you would not make any immediate plans for the next
few days. I am going to need your help I think. Nothing heavy but
definitely important, and quite soon!' He gave her a quick hug and kissed
her on the cheek then turned away to walk swiftly through the foyer and on
out into the street, closely followed by the driver. Faith followed them to
the doors and returned his wave as he settled in the car and in a moment he
was gone.


	'Oh well,' she murmured quietly. 'So much for the chat up and
dinner!' and with a grin she turned and headed back to the bar. ... well I
know someone who will be happy with my news. Well that part of it
anyway. Perhaps we really can have that early night after all she chuckled
as she walked back to the bar and began threading her way back through the
crowded room to where she had left Anne and the others.

	'Everything okay Faith.' Anne asked with a worried look.

	Faith nodded.  'No problem.' she answered quietly. She didn't
mention Marks conversation with her but added with a smile. 'Just a slight
change in the dinner arrangements that's all, Mark has had to dash off
somewhere.'

     	Anne grinned. 'Oh what a shame!' she said quietly. 'I guess we must
be using the wrong perfume, Mike has cried off as well. So that means we'll
be all alone for dinner!' They looked at each other and smiled.

	'Sorry to let you down over dinner.' Mike said appearing at their
side. 'My colleague in the Control Room has reported in sick and so I'm
going to have to take over the night shift until relief arrives.'

	'I was just telling Faith that we must be using the wrong perfume
as Mark has just had to shoot off some where and can't make it either.' Ann
told him. 'and so we are now all alone for dinner!'

	'Well now, isn't that just a shame.' Mike chuckled looking at
Anne. 'Do you think you can manage to keep Faith entertained Anne?' he
queried with a meaningful look.

	'You know Anne, someone might be just about to get their ears boxed
if they are not careful.' Faith derided quietly giving Mike a reprimanding
poke in the ribs.
	'Okay you two.' he chuckled. 'But I must love you and leave you,
for now anyway.' He kissed Anne on the cheek and as he retreated he added
in a broad South American drawl. 'Now you all behave you hear!' and with a
grin and friendly wave to them both he was gone.

	'His American accent is considerably better than someone I know who
tries to imitate Australians!' Faith chuckled. She looked at her watch and
then at Anne who was smiling sheepishly. 'Come, let's be sociable for a
while.' she said quietly and they turned back to join Helen, Brian and the
other guests who had joined them and moments later, Leanne appeared with
fresh drinks for them both.

	'Thank you Leanne.' Faith smiled acknowledging Leanne's flirtatious
glance as she took the two drinks from her.

	'My pleasure Miss Hollings, I'll keep an eye on you folks and make
sure you don't go dry!' As she moved to go her eyes lingered again on Faith
and she nearly knocked into a delegate as she turned away.

	Anne shook her head in despair as with a grin Faith handed her
drink. 'I'll bet she is anything but dry.' Anne said quietly to Faith and
it was Faiths turn to shake her head in despair.

	Some time later, after another refill from Leanne, Faith glanced at
Anne and discreetly showed the face of her watch to her. Anne nodded and
turned to Helen. 'If it is okay with you Helen I will leave after this
drink and go and have dinner.  Obviously I'm here for you in an emergency
but I'm famished and Anne says she is too and that she will join me. I have
some work to catch up on later as well so I might have a reasonably early
night ...'

	'But of course!' Helen agreed and after a few more minutes of
polite conversation they both excused themselves and leaving the bar walked
on through to the restaurant where Douglas greeted and escorted them to
their table.

	'Douglas, don't you ever get any time off?' Faith asked as he
handed them menus.

	'Not with all this hierarchy about Miss Faith.' he grinned. 'I'll
take a couple of days off when this is all over.' and with a small bow he
left them to read the menus.
	'I don't want much to eat.' Faith said looking at the menu 'but I
thought we had better have something, and of course, show our faces!'

	Anne nodded agreement and in a low voice said matter-of-factly. 'I
know exactly what I want to eat and it's not on this menu!' She looked up
at Faith and they both smiled.

	'Behave!' Faith said quietly and feeling Anne's foot caressing her
beneath the table she again smiled as she studied the menu and when Douglas
returned, pen and pad in hand, Faith looked at Anne. 'I'll have the Prawn
Cocktail followed by the Supreme of Chicken please Douglas!' and pressing
her legs together to trap Anne's foot she said. '... and what would you
like Anne?'

	'Seems we like to eat the same things Douglas, I'll have the same
please.'

	'I just happen to have some of the Chablis still on ice ...'
Douglas smiled and with a tilt of his head winked at them and as they both
nodded their approval he grinned and quickly headed off to the kitchens.

	'We like eating the same things she says!' Faith mimicked Anne with
a chuckle, then looked up at the ceiling in resignation. 'For heavens sake
you'll be the death of me Anne Wilde!'

	 'It's true,' Anne replied quietly. 'We do like eating the same
things!' She paused and looked at Faith with an expression of unsolicited
lust. Her eyes dropped to Faiths breasts and she licked her lips
provocatively. 'and I just can't wait for the dessert ...'

	Faith stared back, trying to look serious but finally gave up. 'You
really are shameless aren't you ...' and silently they gazed at each other
across the table until the spell was broken by Douglas returning with the
wine. He filled their glasses and with a polite bow he said 'Your dinner
will be with you shortly.  '
	'Thank you Douglas.' Anne said appreciatively and when he had left
she raised her glass to Faith. 'Cheers!' she murmured softly. 'Here's to
us,' and after a cautionary glance round the restaurant she added in a low
voice. 'I love you.'
	'To us!' Faith responded. 'I love you too.' She took a sip from her
glass and then said quietly. 'I suggest we enjoy the meal and the wine and
then ...' She paused and looked at Anne over the rim of her glass. '... and
then I suggest we retire to share that dessert that you said you want so
badly ...'

	Anne blushed, not with embarrassment but with excitement. She
looked back into the deep penetrating gaze and watched Faith take another
sip of her wine. She watched her lower the glass, watched as the tip of her
tongue slid out to trace a line across her upper lip and she then looked
down and stared at the long fingers that slowly slid down the glass and
began stroking the stem. She glanced up at her briefly then looked back
down at her plate.
	Faith, don't look at me like that, wetting and eating at the same
time in a restaurant is bad for the digestion and very bad manners.'

	She looked back up and Faith was still gazing at her. 'Dear God if
you carry on seducing me with your body language well never make it to the
bedroom Faith ... I'll have you right here in the restaurant! On this
table, or under it. I can hardly breath for wanting you so badly ...'

	'Shhh ... dinner is served!' Faith murmured and as she spoke a
waiter approached and placed two attractively presented Prawn Cocktails in
front of them accompanied by a small plate of neatly cut buttered brown
bread.

	'I didn't think I was hungry.' Anne said looking at the food. 'But
I have to admit, it does look delicious!' and picking up her fork she
speared the first of her prawns and popped it in her mouth. Faith grinned
as she did the same and looking over at her said quietly. 'Eat up little
one but take your time. I have learnt that in most cases the best things in
life are done slowly!'

	The food was good. So good that it was in almost complete silence
that they completed their first course and when the second was served,
apart from the occasional affectionate glance, that too passed in almost
entire silence. Anne was first to finish and sitting back she picked up her
glass and sipped her wine as she watched Faith finishing her meal. Finally
she too had finished and laying her knife and fork together on her plate
she looked up. Anne returned her gaze and her hand trembled as she took
another sip of her wine and putting her glass down carefully she said. 'You
are the most beautiful, the most sensual creature I have ever ever set my
eyes on ...'

	'Thank you.' Faith answered looking at Anne, a small smile on her
lips. 'But as I said before little one, I know I'm to tall and that for a
woman I'm just too big to be beautiful.' She picked her glass up, drained
it and placed it gently back on the table. 'But I do appreciate your
complements and if it works for you, then it works for me!'

	'Bollocks! Just because you are big that doesn't mean you can't be
beautiful Faith ... You said earlier that I was beautiful but I have seen
young teenage school girls with better bodies than mine ...'

	'Rubbish, that is not possible' Faith interrupted quietly. 'you are
small yes, I would be lying if I said you weren't but darling, you are
beautiful and you have a beautiful mature woman's body that I adore, and
don't you ever forget it, and if you really want to know, I think it would
be quite a turned on if I saw you wearing a school uniform ...'

	Anne sighed and looked at her adoringly then, glancing round
quickly said softly 'Faith, I think I would like you to take me
upstairs. Please, I want you, us to make love and then, and ... please
Faith, may we go now?' her voice faded and she gazed at her pleadingly.

	Faith dabbed her lips with her napkin and placed it on the
table. She gave Anne a lingering look then said. 'Yes, I think now it is
time for dessert ...'

	'No dessert or coffee ladies?' Douglas queried when they reached
the door.
	'Thanks but no Douglas.' Faith replied with a polite smile. 'That
was a delightful meal but we need to go ... We'll see you in the morning.'
and with that they walked across the foyer and quickly ascended the stairs.

	'Your place or mine?' Faith asked flippantly as they approached
their rooms.

	Anne, removing her key card from her pocket said. 'Mine, it's
nearer and you promised, remember?' She opened the door and with an
exaggeratedly courteous bow and wave of her arm beckoned her in.

	"Well thank you ma'am" Faith grinned entered the room. Anne
followed and clicking the door shut behind her she leant back against it
and looked at Faith who had turned and now stood in the centre of the room
facing her. For a long moment the two women stood motionless. Silently they
stared at each other then Anne, who was already beginning to breath in
short little gasps, moved from the door.
	'Please ...' she whispered. 'Oh God please Faith ...'


~ 17 ~


	Faith held out her arms. 'Come, come here little one. I seem to
recall that we have some unfinished business to attend to ...!' and in an
instant Anne was in her arms. They stood holding each other tightly,
caressing and shamelessly pressing into each other then Anne sensed Faith
toeing off her shoes. Moments later she felt the zip of her dress slowly
sliding down her back to her waist and the cool air on her skin told her
the dress had opened and fallen away.

	Quickly she moved away from their close embrace and giving a quick
wriggle of her hips, the dress fell to the floor. Looking up at Faith she
licked her lips and reaching up she began undoing the buttons of Faiths
shirt and when she reached the waistband of her skirt she tugged the shirt
free, undid the remaining buttons,
 then pulled it open.

	The lace trimmed half-cup bra had a front fastening clip that was
partially hidden by a small silk bow and as she went to unclip it her
fingers touched the soft warmth of Faiths breasts and a shiver of
excitement and desire slid through her.  Slipping the catch, she peeled the
silk away and groaned.

	'Oh Faith ...' she whispered. Faiths nipples were firm and pointed,
glowing with a deep translucent redness that stood out against the softer
pink of their surprisingly small aureoles. She leant forward and teased
them with her tongue then pulled back. 'God how I have missed touching
you!' she murmured.

	As her lips closed wetly on a nipple Faith, entwining the fingers
of her hand in Anne's thick dark hair, pulled her gently into her and at
the same time, she scooped her up in her arms and Anne reached round Faiths
neck and pulled herself closer.  Cradled in Faiths arms she felt the soft
plush warmth of her breasts pressing against her and again, beneath the
warm external softness of the smooth broad shoulders and arms that held
her, she was again aware of the latent steely power and strength she had
sensed so strongly when she had touched her body before. Delighting in the
sensuality of her semi-nakedness and vulnerability she curled herself into
her.
	'God how I adore you.' she murmured kissing her neck. I'm wetting
already ...'

	Faith lowered her on to the bed and reluctantly Anne released her
hold. She moved to get up and said. 'I must go and wash Faith, I'm huffy
and ...'

	Faiths hand stopped her, firmly pushing her back down. 'Oh no, oh
no you don't.' she said huskily. 'I want you exactly as you are ...'

	'But Faith I'm ... I need to wash ... I ...' She looked up at her
and met Faiths unwavering gaze and her voice faded. They stared into each
others eyes for a brief moment then meekly she sank back on to the
bed. Still holding the gaze she lifted her hips and reached down to ease
her pants off. Again Faiths hands stopped her.

	'No.' she said quietly. 'That is my treat ...'  and kneeling on the
bed she began to remove Anne's few remaining clothes. Unhurriedly she took
off the stockings, then, as Anne obligingly raised her hips, she gently
peeled her pants and garter belt down over her hips. The small dark patch
of pubic hair came into view and she smiled when she saw a damp patch on
the silk gusset of the pants. She rubbed the dampness between her thumb and
forefinger then leaning forward she kissed the soft hairs and inhaling
deeply, savoured the delicate musky scent. Anne was wet, very wet. The lips
of her sex glistened with the wetness and she kissed the delicate folds and
prominent little sheath at their vertex.
	'So beautiful ...' she murmured and Anne shuddered as Faiths tongue
stroked across the barely concealed bud of her clitoris and let out a low
gasp.Faith then pulled back and swiftly slid the pants down Anne's legs and
dropped them on the floor.  The garter belt followed, and Anne was naked.

	Lying back on the bed she licked her lips and again looked up at
Faith who, holding her gaze, ran her fingers lightly down Anne's body. Her
fingers glided across the small breasts and down over her tummy. Detouring
the beckoning join of her thighs they moved on to her legs. Reaching her
feet she lifted one up to her lips. She kissed the instep, caressed it then
slowly she began to work her way up. Lifting and parting the legs she
kissed along the calves then bending them, kissed the hollows at the back
of her knees. Lazily she stroked her fingers along the insides of her
thighs and as her lips followed them Anne moaned quietly and submissively
raised her knees and spread her legs wider. She groaned as Faith once more
kissed the soft hairs covering the delicate swell of her pubis. Then to
Anne's surprise, Faith quickly straightened up and moved up the bed to lie
next to her. Leaning on one elbow she looked into Anne's eyes.

	'For a supposedly hard as nails dominant little woman, you're very
submissive all of a sudden Miss Wilde.'

	Anne gazed back in silence. Her heavy breathing through parted lips
was audible. 'Faith please ...' she finally murmured. 'Please ...'

	For a moment Faith was motionless as she gazed back then she
reached down and cupped her hand between Anne's legs. Looking down at her
fingers as they glided over the smooth wetness she murmured.

	'You're so lovely and ...' she paused and looked back up at
her. 'so ready for me!'

	'I've been ready all day.' Anne breathed. She reached up and
stroked Faiths cheek. 'I've wanted you all day, I've been waiting. Waiting
for you. Waiting for this moment ... '

	'Well let's stop the waiting.' Faith said quietly and leaning down
she kissed her firmly on the lips and returning the embrace Anne curved her
hips up to press into Faiths hand.

	At first Faith was gentle. She slid a finger smoothly into her and
caressed lightly, then adding a second finger she began to probe more
firmly and more deeply.  Almost too firmly Anne thought for a moment as the
fingers delved deeper into her but then she realised. Faith was doing was
exactly what she wanted her to do. It's what I've wanted all along she
thought. What I have wanted from the moment I saw her. I wanted her to take
me. Not only gently and lovingly, but also to take me forcefully. I want
her domination. I want to feel her power, her strength ... She rode the
fingers, rising and pushing into them and gripping the sheets she moved her
hips to their rhythm.

	Breaking their kiss she cried out. 'Oh God Yesss ... harder!' and
clenching her hands into tight little fists swayed her hips in searching
acceptance. 'Oh please God yesss!'

	Placing the palm of her free hand on Anne's tummy, just above the
swell of her pubis, Faith pressed down. Anne felt the fingers inside her
turn and press up and in an instant she caught her breath as a such surge
of sensual pleasure shot through her. Again she cried out loud and as she
squirmed beneath her Faith, sensing the pending climax, leant down and
kissed her breasts. She nuzzled and nibbled the little mounds, drawing them
alternately into her mouth then, taking a hard little nipple between her
teeth she nipped it sharply. Anne cried out again. It all was too much.
She shuddered and closed her eyes, abandoning herself to the pleasure that
flooded her body. Gratifying waves of release washed through her. She
trembled, arched, and turned. 'Oh yesss ... !' she cried gripping Faiths
shoulders. 'Oh my God yesss...!'

	Becoming aware of a blissfully glowing sense of contentment
enveloping her Anne opened her eyes and looked up. Gently Faith eased an
arm under her shoulders and turned her into her. Her breathing was still
laboured as she clung to her.

	'You must think I'm so selfish,' she said eventually. 'Here am I
totally utterly drained and satisfied and ... and I've done nothing for
you.'

	'Oh no my darling, but that is not true.' Faith countered. 'You
have done far more for me than you could ever imagine! The response of your
body, the beautiful expression on your face ... it was all so wonderful to
see, to feel ...'

	'I think I was on another planet.' Anne whispered. She smiled then
snuggled into her. 'Thank you, it was unbelievable what you did ...' As she
spoke she suddenly realised with amusement that Faith still had all her
clothes on and pulling back she exclaimed. 'and Faith! You're still fully
dressed for Christ sake!'

	Faith grinned. 'Well, as far as the clothes go, yes I'm partially
dressed but I don't normally go round exposing my breasts like this with my
shirt and bra undone!'
	'Well you should,' Anne whispered. 'Your breasts are beautiful!'
and reaching up to fondle them she said. 'and you know what I mean. It all
happened so quickly.  One minute we were stood in the lounge cuddling and
the next thing ...' She smiled at her then snuggled back. 'but what you
just did for me really was unbelievable ... '

	For a long while they lay contentedly in each others arms but
finally Faith moved.

	'If we're going to spend the night together I think you are
right. It's time I got more comfortable.' and quickly swinging her feet to
the floor she stood up.

	'Hey No!' Anne exclaimed as she saw Faith move to unzip her
skirt. 'That's not fair. It's my turn now, it's my turn to do the
undressing now, it's my turn ...  please!' and swiftly jumping off the bed
she stood next to her. 'I had plans for you of my own believe it or not, so
please, it's my turn now! ... and let's just see if I can sate this
ravenous appetite I have for your body ...'

	'I sincerely hope you don't.' Faith said sternly, dropping her
hands to her sides. 'I couldn't cope if you lost interest in me that
quickly.'

	'You know I'll never do that.' Anne replied. 'Not now that I have,
how do they say ... tasted the wine?' She reached up and removing Faiths
shirt and bra dropped them on a chair. Faith was now naked from the waist
up and Anne stepped back and marvelled at the beauty of Faiths
breasts. Reaching out she ran her fingers over the soft smooth
contours. She toyed with the nipples then moving slowly round her, smoothed
her hands over the firm lines of Faiths torso. She tingled as she stroked
Faiths arms and shoulders, feeling and testing the smooth yet firm muscles
beneath her fingers. She stroked her back, tracing her fingers down the
even furrow of her spine and pressing her cheek against the warm skin she
murmured softly. 'I will never tire of you Faith. Your so beautiful, so
...'

	'Big is the word your looking for I think!" Faith prompted.

	'Beautiful and big then.' Anne whispered. Feeling along the waist
band of Faiths skirt she found the small button at the top of the zip and
quickly undid it.  Slowly she pulled the zip down and easing the skirt over
her hips she let it fall, taking the half length silk slip with it, to the
floor. The high leg briefs matched the bra.  Cream, silk and lace
edged. They hugged the curves of her hips and buttocks and as she stroked
the smooth silk with her fingertips her heart began to pound. The sheer
gloss stockings had deep lace tops, held up by a matching creamy silk
garter belt.  Kneeling down behind her, Anne undid the studs. Slowly she
peeled one of the silk stocking down Faiths thigh, over her knee then
down. Without prompting Faith lifted her leg and Anne slipped it over her
foot. The second stocking followed and releasing the hook, she released and
dropped the garter belt to the floor.

	Sitting back on her heels she stroked Faiths long legs, caressing
their smooth firmness and tracing her fingers ever upwards she slid her
fingers over and around the curve of her hips and buttocks then curling
them into the waist band of the pants, she began to ease them down. When
the smooth swell and dividing split of her buttocks appeared above the
receding waist band Anne realised she was holding her breath.  Audibly she
exhaled and pressing her face against the soft cheeks she sighed softly.

	'You gorgeous beautiful woman.'

	She pressed herself firmly against her then, sliding the pants down
her legs, she stood up and put her arms round her and again pulled herself
close. Her small breasts pressed into Faiths back and her tummy nestled
against the swell of her buttocks.

	'I never dreamt a body could be capable of stimulating so much
erotic pleasure.  Just holding you, the touch of your body against mine
... it leaves me breathless ...'

	Till now Faith had remained still as ordered.  However the touch of
Anne's body against her, the small breasts, the smooth tummy and her thighs
pressing against her, the sensuality of it all was becoming too much and
gently pulling Anne's encircling arms away, she half turned and
whispered. 'Come here, I want you to ...'

	'I know exactly what you want' Anne replied moving round to face
her. 'lie down on the bed, I want it too Faith ...' Her voice was
surprisingly calm and authoritative and nodding her acceptance Faith got
into bed and slid under the covers and Anne quickly joined her. They put
their arms round each other and their bodies entwined and they held each
other and embraced passionately. But Anne was determined now to have her
way and quickly pushing Faith on to her back she lifted the bedclothes away
and propping herself up on one elbow looked down the length of Faiths naked
body. She stroked Faiths neck and shoulders, briefly ran her fingers over
and round her breasts then skimming across her tummy and the beckoning
pubic mound she smoothed her hand down over her thighs. When she reached
her knees she dipped her hand between them, nudged them apart and began to
slide slowly back up.

	'So soft ...' she whispered. 'so smooth ...' and when she reached
the fine blond wisps of pubic hair she stroked them. Parting the delicate
folds of her labia with the tips of her index and forefinger she boldly
slid them into the smooth slick heat. 'So beautiful ...' she breathed
bending down, and kissing Faiths tummy, she stroked her with slow sensual
strokes. Faiths sex scent filled her nostrils. Her fingers moved easily,
knowingly in the silky wetness and she gently eased in a third finger and
then the fourth. Carefully she pushed forward and when they were buried to
the knuckles she looked up at Faith and their eyes held. Her free hand
closed tenderly to cup the soft pubis hair and curling her thumb over into
her palm she again edged her other hand forward. Faith gave a little gasp
and Anne looked up at her.

	'Am I hurting.?' she asked.

 	Slowly Faith shook her head.  'No ...' she breathed softly and she
stared at Anne through lidded glazed eyes. 'No it's what I want ...  do it
darling ....'.

	'I know ...' Anne said quietly. 'I understand ...' and snuggling
down she lay next to her and rested her cheek on Faiths thigh, and with a
final little push, she watched her hand slide smoothly into her. Buried
deep inside she gently flexed her fingers then closed them into a fist and
began to move her hand. Feeling the light contractions she knew Faith was
building up to a climax. Her legs had slowly straightened and closing, they
gripped her forearm between them. Imperceptibly her body moved in time with
the subtle movements off Anne's hand and Anne began kissing her. She kissed
the smooth indentations of her hips and thighs and finally, brushing her
lips again over the damp pubic hair her lips reached and closed on the now
raised pale pink tip of her clitoris.  Already lost in the ecstasy of her
rising climax Faith let out a gasp. This final sensual touch fired a
searing ripple of pleasure that sped through her body and enveloped
her. For a moment time seemed to stand still and then, crashing through
her, it came. Unbelievable gratification radiated through her
body. Beautiful shimmering iridescent pulses flashed before her eyes as
wave after wave of ecstatic release surged through her. She shuddered
uncontrollably and turning on to her side her cries became lost as she
buried her face in the pillows.

	Anne was sitting up holding her in her arms when she finally she
felt her stir.

	'You okay?' she asked quietly. Gently she stroked the side of her
face, neck and shoulder and bending down she kissed her forehead. It was
still damp with perspiration. 'You have been sleeping.' she murmured
softly.

	Faith looked up. Her eyes and cheeks felt wet and she felt drained,
almost weak. 'I've been crying haven't I.' she said quietly. 'but I don't
remember ...'

	'So?' Anne replied. 'On that score I am way ahead of you. You have
a lot of catching up to do if you want to catch me up on the tears chart!'
she chuckled. 'I guess there was a lot of tension there that you have been
holding back on for quite a while. You needed to release it sooner or later
and I am glad it was me you were with when it happened ...'

	Faith was thoughtful for a minute then said quietly. 'You really
are something else Anne Wilde. No one has ever done what you just did to
me, no one ...'

	 'You're okay with what I did ...' Anne looked at her, a flicker of
concern showing on her face. 'as I mentioned before, I do get carried away
a bit when I make love to you ...'

	'Of course I'm okay with what you did silly and right now I'm
talking about my, my orgasm. Not how you orchestrated it ... though that
too was a first. Everything you did was wonderful!'

	'Oh, I see. Well that's all right then!' she chuckled with genuine
relief then went on. 'You see, there are advantages in being like
me. Little I mean.' She held her small hand up and grinned then she looked
at Faith curiously. 'But, but surely you must have, must have had climaxes
before though Faith. Surely you must have!'

	'Yes, of course I have. I've had climaxes, some rather beautiful
self-induced ones as well and, well I thought I had had orgasms before but
now I'm not so sure.  What I just had, well that my dear wonderful little
woman, that was a true orgasm the like of which I have definitely never
before experienced!' She reached up and pulled Anne down to her and kissed
her on the lips and when she pulled away Anne smiled.

	'How beautiful.' she murmured. 'You've made me quite proud of
myself!'

	'Well you should be young lady, you truly should be and I thank
you!'

	Anne settled down in the bed and snuggled into her. Their bodies
blended and they lay silent, both appreciating each others softness and
warmth and it was sometime considerable time later when finally with an
affectionate hug, Faith moved away and sat up. 'I'm thirsty.' she murmured
kissing Anne and in unsaid agreement they both got out of bed. Faith
collected her clothes from the floor and chair and then hurried to her room
'to make myself decent' as she put it, and after tidying up and collecting
her own clothes Anne made them drinks and when Faith returned she was
sitting up in bed waiting for her.

	Still naked and seeing Faith wearing her gold coloured wrap Anne
giggled quietly and adamantly insisted she wouldn't allow her in to her bed
with clothes on.
	'It is my bed, my room, so I make the rules' she chuckled and Faith
smiled, appreciatively scanning Anne's nakedness and seeing the drinks on
the respective bedside tables shook her head.

	 'Just how decedent can one get.' The small pert breasts beckoned
and removing her wrap she slipped under the sheets and puffing up her
pillows leant back and put an arm round Anne who contentedly rested her
head on her shoulder and curled up next to her.

	'This is nice.' Anne murmured picking up and sipping her
drink. 'Nice and civilised ... I could get used to this!' and reaching
across Faith she placed her drink next to Faiths on the bedside table and
cuddled back. 'Tell me,' she said looking dreamily up at her. 'having told
you what a state I have been in since we met how about you telling me how
you have felt over the last twenty four hours.' As she spoke she slid a
hand down beneath the covers and sliding it across Faiths tummy she cupped
the soft pubic hair in her palm and closed her fingers gently over the warm
furrow beneath.

	'Darling, I thought you wanted to talk.' Faith said sternly, but
her legs edged apart to give Anne easier access. 'Start that my love and
all conversation will cease very quickly!'

	'Just holding you.' Anne replied simply. 'I won't do anything.'
then as though as an afterthought she added. 'Not yet anyway. So come, tell
me what led up to the beautiful Faith Hollings ending up in bed with a
little nothing like me?'

	'Anne, you are not a little nothing.' Faith said, again
sternly. 'To me you're very important and anyway, if you were a nothing you
wouldn't be in this hotel doing the job you are so sush!' She kissed her on
the forehead. 'Well,' she went on after picking up her drink, taking a sip
then putting it back down on the side table next to Anne's. 'when I first
saw you I was impressed. Professionally that is. You struck me as being
efficient and business like. I was also, I now admit, almost immediately
attracted to you sexually but since at that time my business mode was then
in ascendance I didn't consciously consider forming a relationship. Well
other than a business one that is. But it wasn't long before the thought
did cross my mind. That started when you touched me. You had immediately
and unexpectedly entered my Intimate Zone when we shook hands and I liked
it, and it was then that I became instantly aware of the fact that you
appealed to me.'

	'What do you mean Intimate Zone.' Anne asked. 'Is this an intimate
zone?'  she asked huskily, gently flexing her fingers.

	'Yes, very intimate!' Faith grinned squeezing her thighs together
to trap the them. 'But seriously, in body language we all operate within
special zones. They range from what is generally broken down into four
zones, the Public Zone, the Social Zone, the Personal Zone and finally the
Intimate Zone. The Public Zone is where people are quite a long way
apart. Both physically and mentally. What you would expect when you are
amongst total strangers and where little or no communication takes
place. You are aware of their presence but there is no actual contact other
than visual. Standing on platform in a station or walking in the street
perhaps ...

	'The next zone is the Social Zone which is a bit closer. A polite
distance.  Where you are actually making contact with the person on a
person to person basis but not in a familiar way. Like talking to someone
casually, but totally impersonally with distance between you. The next zone
is known as the Personal Zone. That's when a person stands next to you, say
a couple feet or so away? ... it's the zone where people stand when
socialising, like friends at parties or in a club. The Intimate Zone
however is the closest and is the one that triggers the most positive, or
negative vibes.  That's when someone is within inches rather than feet of
you and if that zone is invaded your body will automatically react. Either
positively in acceptance, or negatively in rejection. If it is the latter
you quickly want to make space between you.  Like push them back into at
least the Social Zone. The Intimate Zone is your own private space that
where possible you only share with people you like and/or trust.'

	'I see,' Anne replied thoughtfully. 'So when we shook hands I was
on the edge of your Intimate Zone then.'

	'Yes. In it actually. You stood closer to me than you would have
done with someone you immediately took a dislike to or were unsure
of. Remember, you can shake hands with your arm stretched out putting you
in the Social Zone or, as you did with me, with your arm bent,
automatically bringing us closer together.'

	'Wow! I will have to be careful in future. Make sure I don't give
the wrong impression to people!' Anne chuckled.
	'No, not really. Your body will do it for you. If you don't like
someone your body will automatically endeavour to protect your Intimate
Zone. It will try to put you or the intruder in the zone it feels
comfortable with.'
	'So, back to when we met, you stayed close to me so ... so you
obviously liked me then?' she asked.
	'Yes, I did. As I said, I liked you but I was on business mode and
romantic liaisons were not on my mind at that stage. I was aware of your
closeness and I realised also that I was sexually attracted to you, but it
was really just a passing thought. But my body liked you ...  I thought you
were rather, rather cute actually!'

	'Oh Charming, that's very charming! She thought I was cute! Cute
like a little school girl huh? Like a little Barbie Doll?' She strained up
and gently nipped Faiths ear lobe between her teeth. 'I'll never forgive
you ...' she whispered snuggling back down and gently flexing her fingers
again she said. 'Just you be careful what you say.  You are very vulnerable
right now.' then with a chuckle she added. 'Your also beautifully warm and
wet...'

	'Well keep your fingers still!' Faith chided 'what do you expect!
Anyway, things only really started to happen when you guided me to the desk
in the foyer. You put your arm round my waist and I liked it. Then I did
begin to take note and my body began to react. It wasn't a problem
though. I enjoyed the contact and though aware of your sexual appeal I was
quite able to cope. The real damage was done when you brushed against my
arm, or more to the point when ...' She reached up and cupped Anne's breast
in her hand and gently caressed it. 'when this little puppy brushed its
nose against my arm. Suddenly sexual arousal entered the equation with a
vengeance.  I realised what you had done had been accidental but that
didn't alter the fact that it had happened and instantly I was really
turned on to you.' She went to remove her hand but Anne stopped her.

	'No, please.' she whispered. 'Please hold me ...' then she went
on. 'and don't remind me of that again, I will never ever forget that
moment. I was trying so hard to impress you and wham, total wipe out ... I
was so embarrassed!'

	'Well for better or for worse it really started me off. Suddenly I
was very sexually aware of you and my body told me that I wanted you, very
badly. From that moment on I became very interested in you and not from a
business point of view. I reminded myself that I was here on business and
also that although I wanted you I had no reason to think you wanted
me. Neither of us had made our sexual inclinations known at that time and
to be truthful, up until the time you made the final deciding move, I never
really intended to do anything. Sure I was attracted to you but there was
no way I was going to follow up my emotions by actions. Not here at the
hotel anyway. Although I did decide that at some time I would. That I would
give you a call perhaps. Chat you up after the conference maybe but not
knowing if you were lesbian it was really only a passing thought though at
that time my attraction to you was beginning to be very much sexually
orientated ...' She paused and took a sip of her drink then said. 'But I
did decide that I would flirt a bit with you.'

	Anne chuckled quietly. 'A couple of times I thought you were but I
really didn't dare believe it.' she confided. 'I wanted you so desperately
but I was petrified that I might have been wrong!'

	'I know the feeling! Anyway, I admit my interest became sexually
orientated almost from the start ...' She turned to Anne who lifted her
face and closed her eyes as they kissed. '... and it still is.' she
murmured. 'Except that now I happen to love you for being Anne Wilde the
person as well as Anne Wilde the body!' She paused and looked down at
her. 'and you, you flirted with me too didn't you, you little minx!'

	'Just a little.' Anne grinned, cuddling closer. 'In fact on
reflection, almost quite openly. Part of me said stay away and behave, the
other part said go for it! It was in the afternoon after you had gone up to
your room that I really decided to try everything with in the realms of
decency to get through to you and ... you must remember that though I
didn't realise it at the time I was in love with you almost from the
start. I tried not to be too obvious but at the same time I tried to
somehow get my message over to you. I was torn between my desire for you
and at the same time my fear of what might happen if you, well if you were
straight and objected to my advances, officially that is.'

	'I don't really look the sort of person that would do that do I?'
Faith asked with a look of surprise on her face.

	'No, you don't. Mike told me that as well but, well when you are
mentally up tight you think weird things sometimes and I was so desperate
that you, that you'd like me. Even if you had turned out to be straight!'

	'So how come the sudden ... the sudden doubts about my
intentions. The tears and so on ... surely after last night and today you
didn't think my feelings were that shallow did you?' Faith asked.

	'To be honest, I panicked really. I guess seeing Evania and Leanne
giving you the come-on and then the possibility that Mark might be sending
you off before I could talk to you.' She paused and pressed her lips into
the softness of Faiths neck.  'To tell you, tell you that I was in love
with you.' she whispered and as she did so she moved her finger, pressing
down into the moist folds and Faith caught her breath.
	'Stop it!' she murmured closing her thighs tightly together again
and her arm tightened round Anne's shoulders.

	'I can't help myself. Your so beautifully warm and wet and .... and
so sexy!'  she murmured but she stilled her probing finger and slowly Faith
relaxed her legs.

	'After our first night,' Anne continued. 'though I knew thank God
that you were a lesbian and that like me you just hadn't come-out. Well not
officially to the whole wide world, you told me that you knew of a club
that we could go to so I knew you were 'out' in you own little circle, just
as I am I guess. I don't have many what I would call close friends though
but one or two people know. Mike for example. But certainly no one else in
the hotel or in my business environment.'

	'In my own private circle yes.' Faith answered. 'I have come-out
but not as you say, in the big wide world. I've seen too much sniping, too
much prejudice. My true friends, and I can probably count them on one hand,
they know. Annette and Sylvie the couple I share the house where I live
with, they know and some of their friends. They are all lesbians anyway and
Mark of course, he knows. Obviously they know at the club I mentioned as it
is a lesbians club. The club is quite exclusive and you can only get in
with a member and to become a member you must be voted in by two other
members. They are very particular who they allow in. In a place like that
you just do your own thing. They have rules of conduct, though I sometimes
wonder when I see some of the carryings on. I like socialising occasionally
and sometimes I admit I too flirt a bit but no one knows who I really am or
what I do. Believe it or not, I don't sleep around. I enjoy sex but I am
particular who I have it with ... Sylvie and Annette, well they are
partners and adore each other but they have an open relationship ... they
occasionally find a friend if you know what I mean and go do their thing,
even on occasions they do it together, make up a threesome I mean!'

	'Mmmm how gorgeous, have you ever been part of their threesomes?'
Anne asked cuddling and pressing herself into Faith.

	Faith looked at for a moment, her eyes smiling. 'Well yes,
occasionally I have, we are very open and cosmopolitan in our
household. Broadminded and freethinking I like to call it. We occasionally
comfort each other if the mood moves us ...' she looked at Anne, her face
serious for a moment and continued 'I hope you are not upset by my
admission, I want to be honest with you, and please my love, don't get the
wrong idea, we don't sleep around, we are a very closely nit little group
and we are very particular about who we let in to our little world ...'

	'Of course not Faith, I didn't think otherwise, and I am the
same.... except that I live alone ...' and then she asked. 'so when will I
be allowed to know who or what the real Miss Faith Hollings is? I don't
want you to give any Government Secrets away but I'm curious to know who
I've fallen in love with. I'm sure that though you are a very good
linguist, you are other things as well. I told Helen that I suspected you
were a female 007!'

	Faith chuckled and hugged her. 'Nothing quite so grand I'm
afraid. Let's just say I occasionally help the Foreign Office in the course
of my duties. As a linguist. I travel a lot. Working for the Foreign
Office, or to be more precise for Mark Howard, I work a lot with the UN and
NATO and as a result I meet and visit a lot of people and places. People
and places that others might not be able to without causing alarm or
suspicion amongst the natives. Let's just say that I am on occasions nosey
and observant. I collect information sort of unofficially!'

	'Well I think you're a Secret Agent. Your my Secret Agent anyway!'
Anne whispered and moving her leg over Faiths she began sensually rubbing
herself against her. Faith groaned quietly and with pleasure as she then
felt Anne's fingers begin sliding into her. 'Anne ...' she breathed edged
her legs apart. 'Oh Anne ...'

	'Will this lusting for you ever end?' Anne asked huskily as quickly
she moved to lie on top of her. 'God I love you so much. I don't care what
you are, I'll always love and I'll always want you ...'

	'You'd better.' Faith whispered and reaching up she switched the
lights off.

	'You'd better too ...' Anne murmured and sliding down beneath the
covers the rest of her reply was muffled. Faith, about to continue talking,
caught her breath again and her voice stilled and with a sigh she lay back
and her eyes closed. Passively surrendering herself to Anne's intimacy, she
entwining her fingers in Anne's hair, holding and guiding her and it was
some time before Anne eventually crept back up to the sanctuary of her
arms. Her face was wet and Faith smelt the aroma of her wetness.

	'That was beautiful.' Faith whispered breathlessly and Anne
stretched out on top of her and pressing her thigh down between Faiths she
pushed down. She then squirmed over her as though trying to ensure every
possible inch of her body was touching her and as she flattened herself
down more urgently she began to move her hips in a slow gentle undulating
rhythm.

	'Now I truly appreciate and understand the beauty of Tribadism.'
she whispered.

	Lazily Faith caressed Anne's back. She stroked her shoulders and
sliding her hand down smoothed her fingers along the line of her
backbone. Following it down across the small of her back she stroked and
caressed the smooth swell of the tight little buttocks she had now become
so enamoured with. Anne began to writhe faster, rubbing her sex firmly on
Faiths thigh. Faith felt the smooth heat and wetness pressing on her. The
firm nub of Anne's clitoris was unmistakable and with a little groan and
stiffening shudder, Anne tensed, held motionless for a moment, then relaxed
and lay still, panting gently. For a while, Faith cupped and fondled the
cheeks of Anne's bottom, then slowly she stroked her way back up. Sleepily,
contentedly they held each other. Anne kissed her neck and moaned
approvingly as Faiths lips pressed on her forehead and her movements
slowed, then finally stilled.

	Faith, still tingling from the effects of Anne's lovemaking, lay
holding her.  Even in sleep the small warm body clung to her and as she
listened to her gentle breathing she let out a soft sigh of contentment and
closed her eyes.



~ 18 ~

	When Faith awoke dawn was breaking. A faint light showed against
the drapes and she guessed the time to be nearly seven which she confirmed
with a quick glance at the alarm clock. Anne lay next to her and brushing
the hair away from her forehead she kissed her brow. 'Coffee Tea or me?'
she whispered.

	'You of course!' Anne murmured and she stirred languorously and
sleepily opening her eyes she stretched and turning to Faith put her arms
round her. 'But if you are going to be horrid and leave me all alone,
coffee I guess.' her voice almost lost in the comforting warmth of Faiths
breasts. Turning on to her back she stretched again and drowsily looking up
at Faith, who was now propped up on one elbow and looking down at her, she
asked. 'Is it really time to get up?'

	'Mmmm nearly! Thought it might be nice to have coffee and be with
each other in peace for a few minutes before we face the world. We have
about a half an hour before we have to get up I guess ... if we dress
quickly!'

	'Ohh Goodie' Anne giggled. 'that gives us plenty of time, time to
make love!'  and lifting her head slightly her lips closed on the breast
that beckoned, inches away from her but Faith pulled back.

	'Oh no we can't, not now anyway.' and laughing Faith quickly got
out of bed and crossed to a cabinet where there was a tray with coffee and
tea making facilities.

	Anne watched her pick up the kettle and disappear into the bathroom
and sighed. Appreciatively she had observed the athletic curves and
seductive unhindered movement of her full breasts as she floated out of
sight. Oh my God she murmured silently ... she is so gorgeous, and that
butt ... I said it before and I say it again, bottoms should not be able to
move as sensually as hers ... her buttocks defy the laws of nature
... she's so lovely ... wistfully she gazed at the doorway waiting for
Faiths return and sighed again. I love her so much she thought happily
...God I love her so very very much . and when Faith returned she said
aloud 'You are beautiful so beautiful faith, I could eat you!'

	Faith smiled and plugged the kettle in.  'Thank you, but as I
recall you did just that Darling, last night remember? ...  and anyway,
right now I think I had better put my gown on and cover myself up!'

	'Faith! You do and I'll never speak to you again.' Anne
exclaimed. 'Please come back to me!'

	Faith walked back to the bed and sat next to her.
	'I thought you would have seen enough of me naked for now.' she
murmured bending to kiss her. As their lips met her breasts swayed forward,
gently brushing against Anne's and reaching up Anne held them and when
their lips parted from their kiss she moved to suckle on a nipple but again
Faith moved away.

	'Nooo!' she scolded gently and hastily got up off the bed.

	As she waited for the kettle to boil Faith glanced up into the
mirror in front of her and saw Anne's reflection. She was sitting up in bed
watching her and giving her hips a gentle wiggle Faith grinned at her.
	'Just to keep you interested.' she joked.

	'Interested? I'm fascinated and mesmerised by your body, I will
always be interested!' Anne retorted.

	The kettle clicked and quickly Faith made their coffee and got back
into bed and seeing Anne's eyes blatantly feasting on her breasts she
placed their cups on the bedside table and pushing her onto her back eased
the sheets back.

	'You,' she whispered. 'You are a wanton little hussy!' She moved
over and lay on top of her, pressing down and smothering her with her
weight. Rubbing her face into Anne's neck she nibbled her ear and they lay
in each others arms lightly but intentionally and provocatively moving
against each other. For several minutes they enjoyed their body contact,
petting and kissing each other. Their hands roamed and caressed intimately
but finally Faith pulled away. 'Come darling, finish your coffee then we
must get up.'  and sitting back up, propping herself up with her back
against the head board, she handed Anne back her cup.

	'How beautifully domestic!' Anne sighed and looking meaningfully
again at Faiths breasts she went on. 'Am I really expected to drink my
coffee with those so close to my lips, so near ... and with both our
fluffies leaking like sieves?'

	'You were the one who said I must be naked. I won't look at yours
if you don't look at mine.' Faith smiled taking a sip of her coffee and was
about to continue talking when suddenly they both heard the phone ring in
Faiths bedroom.

	'Shit! Back in a minute' Faith exclaimed quickly putting her cup
and saucer on the bedside table and swinging her feet to the floor she
sprinted out of the room.
	Anne having again watched in awe the naked figure race away
smiled. 'Truly magnificent.' she murmured aloud. 'Truly a magnificent
female female ...'

	Minutes later Faith returned. 'Well, we have three quarters of an
hour little one and we are then breakfasting with Mark!' she announced
quickly crossing the room and sitting down on the bed next to her. Anne
turned to put her coffee cup down and as she did so Faith reached out and
quickly cupped caressed and gently squeezed one of Anne's breasts in her
hand. Swiftly she leaned down and kissed her on the shoulder then, before
Anne had time to respond she pulled away and stood up.

	'So move that gorgeous little butt out of bed young lady and go
make yourself presentable! Any thoughts you may entertain on the passion
front will now have to wait I am afraid and little one, though I would love
to shower with you, I am not going to. Showering with you takes far too
long and we just don't have time ...'

	Anne quickly standing up on the bed in front of Faith shakily stood
stiffly at attention and with a small grin on her face saluted
her. 'Permission to speak, Major Hollings ma'am?'

	Faith grinned back, her eyes sweeping lustfully over the petite
naked beauty of Anne's body. The pert little breasts stood proud with their
aroused little nipples hard and pointed. The pink lips of her sex showed
through the damp dark hair and dividing swell of her sex and Faith inhaled
her scent and sighed. 'God but you are so desirable.' she murmured,
brushing the backs of her fingers over the soft pubic hair with one hand
and caressing her bottom with the other. She then looked at Anne, and going
along with the facade, authoritatively said.
	'Permission granted soldier.'

	'Permission to give the Major a quick hug and kiss before she
leaves?' Anne giggled and without waiting for a reply she put her arms
round Faiths neck and lifted her legs, wrapping them round Faiths hips.

	'Permission granted.' Faith chuckled, her hands cupping the cheeks
of Anne's bottom to hold her up. They kissed passionately then gently Faith
turned and reluctantly lowered her to the floor .
	'Come on you,' she whispered. 'this will not do at all, your
turning me on again and we must get dressed!' then she added quietly. 'but
tonight it will be different, tonight it's my place okay?'

	'Is that a promise?' Anne asked softly cuddling into her. One hand
drifting round to caress the slope of Faiths back and down to her buttocks,
the other cradled and guided a breast to her mouth.

	As Anne's lips closed on her nipple Faith sighed then quietly she
spoke firmly.  'Anne stop it!' For a moment she held her close, even
pressing her breast into her then gently she eased back. 'and yes my
darling, that is a promise ...'

	'Faith!' Anne murmured looking up at her. 'Faith, what ever happens
today, with Mark I mean, you ... we'll still be ...'
	'Anne, whatever Mark may have up his sleeve it will not change what
we have and it won't stop us being together either. Well, certainly not for
long anyway.' and bending down she kissed her on the lips. 'and that ma
petite biche, is a very sincere promise!'

	When they arrived in the main foyer Mark was waiting for them. He
greeted them cheerfully, kissing Faith on the cheek and after a brief
hesitation, taking Anne's hand he politely kissed the back of her
fingers. 'How ever can a man eat in the presence of such beauty?' he asked
with a grin. Quickly they walked together to the restaurant where Douglas
met and escorted them to a table set for three in a secluded section of the
room and after helping themselves from the self-serve buffet to cereals and
juice, they returned to the table and seated themselves.

	 Mark smiled. 'And how are you two this morning?' he asked looking
first at Anne then at Faith and before they could answer, as he sugared his
cereal, he went on quietly. 'You both look very pleased with yourselves. I
trust you are ready for the day ahead. I might add that last night whilst
you two were locked in your Sapphic bliss I was up most of the night
attending a very long and boring meeting!'

	Anne immediately embarrassed, blushed profusely and looked to Faith
for help. Seeing her discomfort Faith smiled. 'It is all right Anne. In
private with friends he loves to tease, and he doesn't pull his punches I'm
afraid. His familiarity however is a sign of approval so don't be
embarrassed. It took me a little time to get used to it!'

	'Don't know what your talking about I'm sure.' Mark grinned and
looking at Anne he reassured her. 'She is right though Anne, I like to
tease but I assure you I would never knowingly embarrass you.' and with a
wink at her added 'Other than in private of course and then only in jest.'

	After a brief glance at Faith who with another small grin gave a
nod of assent Anne looked back to Mark. She gave him a nervous smile then
still somewhat disconcerted, looked down and silently contemplated her
menu.

	 'Anyway Faith,' Mark said turning to her. 'much as I enjoy this
teasing, if Anne will excuse me I do need to talk a bit of business
Faith. Quite simply, I need someone to go to Germany. Munich to be
precise. There's a NATO meeting there the day after tomorrow, well Monday
actually, but I would like you to fly out there the day after tomorrow
really. It will probably last two or three days, maybe a bit more but it
will be finished by next weekend.'

	Anne shivered as her heart lurched and she felt the colour drain
from her face.  Her worst fears were materialising into actuality. Oh God
no she gasped silently, she's going to leave ... I knew this was coming ...

	'Assuming that I am going and knowing you you have already assumed
that I am, can you tell me anything about it?' Faith asked and seeing Mark
glance briefly in Anne's direction she added. 'She knows about me and, and
some of my other duties Mark and needless to say I trust her implicitly.'

	Mark cleared his throat and smiled. 'Yes I know that ... Actually
it's not anything cloak and dagger this time Faith. But what I have to say
is how shall I say, sensitive and not for general knowledge? There are as
you probably know rumblings of discontent in the Yugoslavia area of Europe,
the Balkan States generally in fact and well, well NATO is possibly going
to have to take more than a casual interest soon in what is happening out
there.

	'In my view I think it is all going very pear shaped and very
quickly. I told the Foreign Office this would happen months ago, saying
that I was sure there was big trouble brewing and now at last they are
beginning to think I was right. That's basically what the meeting is about
but I need someone out there to not only give me the details of the
discussions on an official basis but more important, I need genuine
information. I want someone there who can feel and test the air, give me
the politics of it all and you Faith are a genius at that. The conference
is being held behind closed doors and to date the media have not, as far as
I know, been informed of its taking place. As our interpreter you ... well,
you already are familiar with a lot of the diplomats from the European
Embassies and you know most of the NATO staff in Munich. You quite simply
can get feed back that an ordinary official representative could not. You
may, you will be able to how shall I say, obtain snippets of information
that others couldn't ...'

	Conversation ceased for a moment as Douglas arrived and asked for
their orders and when he had departed Anne poured them coffee. Her heart
still pounded and she was close to tears but somehow she remained outwardly
unruffled. Putting the coffee pot down she sat back in her chair, resting
her hands (that had now begun to tremble slightly) in her lap and silently
watched and intently listened the two of them talking.

	'I have been a little presumptuous Faith I know but though I expect
it to be a very low risk operation I haven't asked anyone else to do it
yet. I would very much like you to go for me.'

	'I see.' Faith smiled. She looked at Anne and nodded knowingly at
her said 'You see, I told you he was after something didn't I.' Anne
managed a small smile and Faith went on. 'I get the impression that it's
important isn't it Mark. I can tell by the tone of your voice.'

	'Yes, it is very important. There is a lot going on out there Faith
and the powers that be have only just quite suddenly become aware of it's
importance. The yanks are worried too and I am liaising with them. The will
be represented at the meeting and obviously we will work closely with
them. I think personally that there is a long and very nasty violent
conflict brewing and I also think that it is about to break out very
soon. I also think that it will be a long term conflict. It would appear
that we are at the back of the class on information at the moment and we
want to change that.  We need to know who is friendly with who and more to
the point, who isn't friendly with who. I think, in fact I know, you are
the best person to dig around. You are popular with a lot of the hierarchy
from all the parties concerned out there and you can mix socially so much
more easily than an ordinary official. We'll have to get you a really good
PA of course, the Foreign Office are working on that right now. I have
specified that you will have someone who is computer literate and a good
typist and stenographer and I am hopeful they will find someone who fits
the bill in time and that it will be someone who you ...'

	'... and someone who I can work with!' Faith interrupted with a
chuckle.

	'Yes, and someone who you can work with. I know you are a loner and
like to do your own thing but I don't want you tied down with admin
stuff. You need some one there to give the feed back too. I consider that
is imperative!' He smiled looking down at his coffee and at that moment
their breakfasts arrived. Mark had not ordered a main course but he
motioned Anne and Faith to go ahead with theirs.

	'Trouble is.' he went on. 'I have to be honest, with the weekend
coming up it is giving them very short notice to find someone so I fear you
might be on you own to start with.'

	Anne had picked up her knife and fork but her appetite had
disappeared completely and she had only toyed with her food as Mark
talked. When he finished speaking she gently laid her knife and fork neatly
together on her plate and taking a deep breath she looked up at them both
and cleared her throat.

	'I know it is not my business but,' she said quickly looking first
at Faith then at Mark. 'but I am computer literate. I teach computer skills
at evening classes at the local Tech and, well my typing and shorthand
speeds are well above average. 75/135 at the last count which is though I
say it myself, pretty fast. I just thought that if you two were really
stuck. I thought perhaps you might consider me to act as Faiths PA. If you
wanted me, I finish here tomorrow so if you wanted me I would be free ...'
her voice drifted to silence and she looked at them both with an expression
of expectancy and embarrassment.

	Mark and Faith had both turned and looked at her as she had begun
talking and when her voice faded, they were both silent.

	'I'm afraid I don't speak any foreign languages.' she added
hurriedly. 'A bit of French and a bit of Dutch but not anything worth
mentioning really but I do have official Security Clearance in as far as I
have signed the Official Secrets Act and I have an up to date police
clearance certificate. Seeing the look of surprise on Faiths face she added
'You see I worked quite a bit with the local TA. There is a depot near home
and when they are on manoeuvres I have helped in their Signal Centre.' She
paused and looked hopefully at the two of them. 'Well, that is about
it. Sorry if I interrupted you but, but if you wanted me to I would be
happy to help if you and well you know, if you can't find anyone else in
time ...'

	She sat looking back at them practically holding her breath in
anticipation of their response. Gutted at the thought of Faith going away
and of not seeing her she now hung to the remote chance that they might not
be parted. The very thought of being with her on official business was all
too awesome to dare imagining ... but she waited hopefully for a positive
response.

	Faith stared at her, her mind racing. Why not she thought. She has
all the qualifications that would be required for the job ... she is very
capable and to say we get on would be an understatement ... she'd be ideal
for the job in every way and obviously Mark has done his home work on her
or he would have immediately raised an objection. He hasn't done so ... so,
so he's leaving it to me to decide ... but what if there was trouble, what
if ... Their eyes had held as she assessed the situation and without
looking away she asked.
	'What is the danger ratio Mark? I know you always are with me but
please be honest.'

	Mark was thoughtful for a moment then said 'Of course, and in
answer to your question, no more than here really. This is the latter half
ot the 20th century ...  You'll be mixing with some of the European
hierarchy, some of whom are not very popular in certain circles but that
applies to here right now, in fact anywhere for that matter.  No, no more
danger than the two of you've been in over the last forty eight hours but,'
 and he added casually. 'it may be very long hours Anne, very tiring
possibly ...  but danger, the possibility is minimal really.'

	Faith grinned inwardly. The crafty bugger she thought. He has
already done his home work on her and has decided. He's made up his mind
already ...probably did ages ago ... before we even came to breakfast ...

	'In this business long hours are par for the course Mark so I have
no problem with that.' Anne answered. 'and danger? Well I've had my moments
of danger. I think I would cope.' Being with Faith would be security enough
if there was trouble she thought as she gazed into the grey-green eyes that
now held her so penetratingly.  They were warm and affectionate but deep
probing and she could see Faith was seriously calculating. Had they not
formed the relationship that they now had she knew she would have wilted
with embarrassment and have had to look away. Instead she held the
gaze. Her eyes pleaded silently for her approval and despite the
seriousness of the decision that was about to be made, she smiled at her,
raising an eyebrow and slightly tilting her head in a soundless query.

	Faiths steady gaze seemed to search deeper, as though she was
scanning her mind as one would a CV then slowly the corners of her mouth
widened and she smiled back.

	'All right then Mark.' she said quietly, turning to him. 'You want
me to go, I go ... and Anne comes with me.'

	Anne swallowed and the wave of elated release that engulfed her
made her shiver and she for a moment felt dizzy wit elation. She looked up
at Faith and, as their eyes met again for a brief moment, she silently
tried to transmit her gratitude and even more, her overwhelming love.

	Mark looked up from his coffee which he had been stirring
thoughtfully.

	'Well, there's one problem solved.' he beamed. 'I'm glad that's
sorted then.  Welcome aboard Anne, and Anne, I know Mike West has covered
security very thoroughly for this conference. I er ... I've seen your
personal file and I have incidentally the authority to do so so Mike had no
choice when I requested it, although he personally vouched for you he has
been very thorough. He of course has to be to have been so successful in
his business. So really the only thing I will need from you now is your
passport. I have to arrange special passes and so forth through the FO. I
will need it as soon as possible. Is that a problem? Do you have it here at
the hotel?'

	'Yes. Helen has it in the hotel safe. I'll go and get it now if you
would like me to.' she replied. Her heart was thumping and her hands still
trembled as she tried to acknowledge the enormity of what had just taken
place and she was thankful that she had found her voice and that it sounded
confident.

	'Thank you but it can wait until you've finished breakfast.' Mike
chuckled.  'Perhaps you would arrange for Helen to let me have it before I
leave though. I'll let you have it back this evening; and Faith, I'll let
you have a complete breakdown of the itinerary. Your air tickets and your
documentation is already done.'

	He paused to take a sip of his coffee and Faith with a grin cut
in. 'I see, and just how can that be since you didn't know I was going to
agree to go and tell me, was it pure chance that you happened to glance
through Anne's security file?'

	Mark coloured slightly and grinned. 'Ah. Well let's say I just took
a chance.  Thought you would like a change.' and putting his cup down for a
moment looking a bit sheepish but then turning to Anne he went on. 'and
Anne? I did not wholly anticipate your offer Anne, in fact last night I
honestly did not know about this ... this trip I mean, but I had a hunch we
would er ... we would not lose touch. I have to make it my business to know
as much as I can about the friends of my friends and colleagues and knowing
you and Faith had become ... well become close I, well yes I did do a bit
of home work on you. I learnt about your involvement with the TA and by the
way your knowledge of cipher certainly surprised me. However, that is all
academic now isn't it!'  and before either of them could reply he glanced
at his watch and stood up. 'Oh and one other thing, several of the
delegates have said they wish to leave after this mornings session. The
want to get back home to their governments so you two will be free to leave
as well. Faith, I must dash. I'll contact you the usual way either tonight
or at the latest, tomorrow am. Don't forget the passport Anne. I'll collect
it in about twenty minutes or so.' He kissed Faith on the cheek and
catching Anne totally by surprise, kissed her on the cheek as well.

	'Glad you are with us.' he said quietly and suddenly he was gone.

	Anne looked at Faith. 'Don't ask me to stand up for a minute, I
couldn't ...  and if I pick up my coffee I'll spill it ... I don't know
what to say Faith, except thank you ... and that I love you and you have
made me the happiest woman in the world. I promise I won't let you down
Faith, I promise.'

	Faith smiled. 'I know you won't. Mind you, you don't know what you
have let yourself in for. You might not be so enthusiastic trudging through
the icy cold of a central European winter.  Munich is not that far from the
Austrian border and the Alps and the weather is a bit nippy round there
right now to say the least! There is thick snow there at the moment!'

	'As long as I am with you I don't mind what happens.' Anne replied
quietly.

	'Oh don't you worry about that, you are going to be with me all
right. Day and night you are going to be with me! We'll have to think of a
title for you though.  Introducing you as My Lover may raise a few
eyebrows!' She glanced at her watch and said 'Have you finished your
breakfast?'

	Anne nodded. 'I couldn't eat a thing at the moment, I really can't
believe all this ...'

	'Come then little one, there are things to do!' Faith
whispered. They stood up and casually she took Anne's hand in hers. 'Let's
go and get your passport sorted for Mark shall we ... and what's all this
about your knowledge of ciphers and working with the TA, you didn't tell me
about that ...'

	The morning session passed peacefully. Anne had almost immediately
been summoned to sort out assorted minor problems in the hotel and it
wasn't until the conference was just starting that she was able to find her
way back to the Broadcasting room. As she entered the red 'on air' light
came on and Faith, acknowledging her arrival with a brief but affectionate
glance, started translating.

	Anne made coffee then sat down and for the first time since
breakfast was able to concentrate on trying to collect her thoughts and
analyse all that had happened. Her mind whirled as she struggled to
comprehend and accept the changes that had taken place and on what the
foreseeable future might hold. Business wise I know I can cope easily she
thought. As a PA I know I will be capable, good in fact and ... but going
to Europe and meeting and mixing with the hierarchy and foreign
dignitaries! and Clothes, I have no clothes to wear! and I'll have to go
home and repack ... and what do I pack anyway? Do I need to draw money out?
There's not much in the bank but I could use my Credit cards I suppose
... I wonder how much I will be paid, I didn't dare to ask. Never thought
about it in fact. Still, I know Faith will look after me ... I'd do it for
nothing if only to be with her ...  just to be close to her ... and
tonight, are we going to be apart ... ? The thought of being separated even
for one night was unbearable, but as she watched Faith sitting at her desk
quietly translating she felt a glow of warm contentment deep down inside.

	Faith sat upright, her shoulders squared back and Anne
appreciatively took in the firm swell of her breasts that with the tell
tale imprints of her nipples showing clearly, strained slightly against the
white cotton of her blouse. One hand rested on her lap and the other was on
the desk where she was again gently sliding the thin gold pencil back and
forth between her fingers. Her eyes were again drawn to those long slender
fingers and her mind drifted back and she recalled the joy of their
caress. The way they had stroked and fondled me she thought ... She scanned
again down the outlines of her figure. Her eyes travelling on down to her
legs and then her feet. Long and slender, just like her hands and fingers
she thought and yet, yet they too have a sensuality about them ...
	Slowly she looked back up, following the line of her calves to her
thighs and the smooth curve of her buttocks. Her eyes lingered there a
moment then moved on up her back, to the broad shoulders and her neck. She
found herself staring at Faiths ear which suddenly had an alluring appeal
about it. She recalled kissing it and nibbling the lobe which now was
adorned with a small single diamond earring. Finally she lowered her eyes,
sliding her gaze down her arms back to the hands and the long tapering
fingers and again mesmerised by their gently rhythm, she continued to
stare. Will I ever stop wanting her she mused silently and without
thinking, she licked her lips. Shaking herself and grinning ashamedly she
quickly got up and made fresh coffee. As she placed Faiths cup next to her
their eyes met and she smiled at her. Faith continued talking but the long
fingers briefly touched and rested on her wrist and Anne's insides skipped
a beat.

	This magnificent, beautiful woman she thought, as she returned to
her chair and sat down again. So elegant, so refined and confident. How
could she have fallen for a little shrimp like me, a little nobody in this
rat race of survival ... and settling herself, she sat back she continued
to meditate and watch. And now she thought, through this gorgeous beautiful
woman, I am being catapulted into the world of politics and intrigue. I'll
see and probably meet and speak to people I have only seen on Television
and read about in the papers ...

	'Coffee and Biscuits Miss Wilde?' Anne jumped, startled back to
reality. Faith had slipped the transmit switch off and turned to face
her. Her eyes held her with a long affectionate gaze. 'Penny for them.' she
said quietly.

	'I love you Faith Hollings.' Anne replied. She got up from her
chair and crossing over to her side she put her arms round her and hugged
her tightly. 'I love you so much.' She buried her face into Faiths neck and
kissed her. 'I love you so much it hurts, truly I have never felt such a
love ...'

	Faith returned the embrace, stroking her hair and shoulders. 'I
love you too.'  she whispered and with a smile added. 'But we have a world
to face out there, come!'  Standing up she straightened her skirt and
blouse but as Anne reached to unlock the door Faith touched her on the
shoulder. Anne turned and looked up. Quickly Faith bent down and kissed her
lightly on the lips. 'I am glad you are coming with me to Germany.' she
whispered. 'Very glad. I would have missed you ...'

	Anne smiled and as she slid the bolt back she replied. 'I still
don't believe it, what has happened. But I'm so happy.' and opening the
door she lead the way to the reception room where under the guidance of
Douglas they were shepherded to a table behind which, stood the imposing
figure of Leanne.
	Anne looked at Faith who smiled, raising a questioning
eyebrow. 'Don't you even think about it!' she whispered and they both
laughed and reaching the table they accepted the offered refreshments and
were soon surrounded by delegates and further personal contact, visual or
otherwise, had to cease.

	'How you doing?' Mike West gave Anne an affectionate hug and nodded
to Faith. 'You will never cease to amaze me Anne Wilde. How the hell did
you pull this latest little coup off?'

	'Coup?' Anne asked innocently.

	'Munich! How on earth did you manage it?'

	'How on earth did you know!' Anne exclaimed with genuine
surprise. 'I thought Faith and I, and Mark of course were the only ones to
know about it.'
	'Mark came and saw me earlier. He wanted to borrow your security
file again.  He was impressed with your credentials and he told me about
you joining up with Faith for the Munich trip. He's a very pleasant but I
assure you, a very shrewd and thorough man.'

	'Isn't he just!' Anne affirmed quietly. 'Anyway, I didn't pull it
off as you call it. I just happened to be in the right place at the right
time. I sort of ... well I volunteered my services ...'

	'Oh, and what services were those I wonder!' Mike chuckled.

	Anne looked at him shyly and stubbed her toe on his foot. 'Not the
ones your thinking of!' she smiled. 'At least not as far as Mark was aware,
although he knows about our relationship.' At that moment a bell rang and
every one started to move back to the hall.

	'Blimey that was quick!' Mike said. 'See you later.' and abruptly
he shot off towards the exit.

	'You okay?' Faith asked as they walked together back to the
conference hall.

	'I have never felt better and I have never felt happier.' Anne
beamed. 'Though I have a million question to ask regarding what is going to
happen when we finish here. It has all happened so quickly!'

	'If you're talking about the job don't worry about a thing. I know
you will be ideal for it.' Faith said grinning at her. 'I have no doubts
about that!'

	'Oh I have no qualms about that either.' Anne replied. 'It's the
bits and pieces I'm thinking about. You know, clothes, travelling
arrangements and so on. I don't worry ever but I do have a lot of questions
to ask, but they can wait.'

	'Of course and I understand completely.' Faith replied. They
entered the Broadcasting room and as she crossed to sit at the desk Anne
locked the door.  'You mustn't worry about a thing,' Faith continued
picking up her earpiece. 'If you want to go home to get clothes and things
it is no problem and if you need to buy anything just keep all receipts and
tickets. You are on Government Business now and providing your sensible and
don't hire a private helicopter or something daft like that they will pay
all your expenses. As far as all the travel details and so on are concerned
Mark will sort all that.' She glanced over to her and said. 'If you decide
not to go home Anne you know of course you are more than welcome to stay at
my place.' She paused then with a grin she said. 'I did say earlier that it
was my place tonight ... but, you'll have to sleep with me and you will
have to be prepared for a bit of friendly third degree from Sylvie and
Annette. Sylvie will probably try to Mother you, very affectionately, and
they will both almost certainly flirt outrageously with you.' She chuckles
and added 'and they are very, very affectionate ... and highly over sexed
and permanently horny!'

	The red light flashed and reaching forward she flicked the switch
on and immediately began translating. Anne settled back in her chair and
mused happily on Faiths final offer. Truly I have to be dreaming she told
herself and pinching her arm to assure herself that she wasn't she smiled
happily as she briskly rubbed the pain away.


One more chapter ...anyone still there?
