much I think of him and that I trust him with Delaney.”

“That’s so sweet,” Amanda changed her tone as Jack sensed her becoming emotional. “I’m glad the two of you talked. I know how important it was for Greg.”

“I’m glad also. Everything worked out pretty well.”

“It did. I don’t know how you did it and I probably never will, but whatever you did, it was amazing.”

“Well thank you,” he accepted her compliment as he prepared a toast and raised a glass. “To Delaney and Greg.”

“To Delaney and Greg,” Amanda echoed his words and tapped her glass against his before adding a twist.

“And most definitely to us.”

“Did you have a good time at the party,” Delaney made small talk with him as they entered the house.”

“I did,” Greg answered as he turned on the lights in the kitchen. “I guess if I would have had time for friends, those are the kids I would have hung out with.”

“They’re pretty nice,” Delaney replied as she opened up the refrigerator and Greg wondered if he was going to be able to make the first move. “Do you want a beer.”

“No, I’m okay,” he decided to stay as sober as possible. “Do you want to watch some tv or something.”

I am so lame, Greg thought to himself as he admired Delaney’s figure, perfect as she leaned over to reach for a bottle of water. “Sure, Greg,” she answered his question as she closed the refrigerator and turned to face him, a quizzical look on her face.

It was awkward for just a second. Just for a second as they both realized it was time. Just for a second as they fell into each others arms. Just for a second until his mouth found hers.

Finally, Greg was relieved as she loosened his tie and his hands found her waist. I can’t believe we are doing this, he became nervous as Delaney unbuttoned his shirt and he pulled down the zipper on the back of her dress. I’m going to need some help, he realized as she removed his shirt and he tried to unlatch her bra.

“Greg, let’s go to the bedroom,” she whispered into his ear as he gave up the struggle with her bra.

He watched as Delaney led him to her bedroom, one hand in his and the other trying to hold up her dress. How are we going to do this, Greg wondered as the arrived in her room and she let go of his hand. She is so beautiful, he couldn’t help but stare as she started to undress.

“Don’t be shy, Greg,” Delaney reminded him as he realized he was just standing there staring.

“You are amazing,” he stammered as he watched her remove her bra and she slowly approached him.

“Thank you, Greg,” Delaney accepted his compliment and then softly kissed him. “Why don’t we get these off.”

Greg started to shiver as she unzipped his pants and they slowly dropped to the floor. They were both down to their last piece of clothing as they kissed more passionately and their hands found each others’ bodies. She is nervous too, Greg realized Delaney was also shaking as they stepped away from each other, but only for a moment.

They looked at each other intently as Greg took the lead and slowly removed his boxers. Delaney smiled as she looked at him and then decided to follow his lead. Nothing left in the way, they embraced again as his tongue slowly found hers and he enjoyed the softness of her skin.

That feels so good, they touched each other as they somehow forgot to kiss. Not yet, Greg, he reminded himself as he reached for Delaney’s hand to slow her down. “Do you want to get into bed,” he whispered before kissing her again.

Delaney didn’t have to answer as she just looked at him and led him to their destination. She stood just in front of him as she sat him down on the bed and let his mouth find her breast and his fingers rediscover her body. Then, she stopped his progress, but only for a second as she reached for a condom on the dresser.

“This part is a little awkward,” Delaney warned him as she unwrapped the condom and he wondered how they were going to overcome this obstacle. “Lay down, Greg, I’ll take care of it,” she answered his question as he followed her instructions.

He jumped as she touched him firmly and rolled the condom into position. Oh my God, Delaney kissed his
