I gotta say this is the best thing I could have read today. **Anaamika** unwisely posted her photo in another thread and I must say, were I into that particular fantasy, she is _definitely_ someone I’d like to see playing the part. Huge marks for **silenus**.

Well, thank you! Is **Harimad-sol** around? I’d be glad to try the experiment.

Right you are.

I don’t know how he got so lucky as to get second and third kisses from her if his first was like you described.

It reminds me of that episode of Sex and the City where Charlotte goes out with some guy and at the end of their delightful date he starts tonguing her. I mean, like licking her face all around her mouth and chin. It was hilarious.

That was awesome, **conurepete**. Well worth coming out of lurk-mode for.

Inexperience and a lack of pointers from previous and current partners?
