My Lips On You

A Delicate Kiss

Jessica and the mysterious man now occupied a table in the bar...

"Well, who do I owe the honor of being drunk?" he asks as he raises his glass for a toast.

"Jessica..." she responds and repeats the same movement of him.

"So, Jessica, do you happen to have a last name?" He mocks.

"Lange ... Jessica Lange."she laughs.

"Are you Jessica Fucking Lange?" He shouts in disbelief.

"Yes!" Jessica speaks loudly and then laughs, she's already a little drunk.

"Wow! How could I not recognize you? You're so..." she begins to speak, but Jessica interrupts "so old... I know." she discouraged.

"That's not what I would say Jesica! I did not recognize you, because you look so much better now, the years have been good for you" he smiled.

"Thank you..." Jessica blushed.

He sees that Jessica has become embarrassed then changes the subject."What have you done, Jessica? the movies are not the same without you!"

"Well, I'm busy with my work as a photographer..." Jessica gets more comfortable.

"Photographic? this is news to me..." he is surprised.

"Well, now that you know a little more about me...talk more about yourself" she takes a sip of her drink.

"Well then, my name is James...James Parker, I'm an entrepreneur...and I just moved to this place a little while ago" he takes a sip of his drink.

"Single?" Jessica suddenly asks, leaving him surprised.

"Yes, I'm single...but always well accompanied" he winks at Jessica.

"Uh..." Jessica finishes her drink."So I already feel drunk" he says and laughs along with Jessica.

"Well, I think I've had too much to drink for one night..." Jessica says through the laughter.

"Mrs Lange, I'd give you a ride home if you could drive"

"And I'd call a taxi if my phone was not fucked" Jessica jokes.

"So I'm going to hail a cab for both of us, if you do not mind sharing the cab with me, of course" James picks up the phone and hails a cab.

10 minutes later the taxi arrives and the two enter.

In 15 minutes they arrive at Jessica's house.

"James thank you very much for tonight..." Jessica says awkwardly.

"Well, we would not have met if you had not bumped into me...so I thank you" he says, making Jessica laugh.

Jessica was already looking for the house keys in her purse when she felt James approach and hold her arm. Jessica's body shakes with her touch and she feels a shiver in her spine.

James hands her a small piece of paper "This is my private number...if you need anything and just call me Mrs. Lange".

"Thanks James...I would even give you my number, plus my cell phone is all fucked up"

"Fine" he smiles and comes closer to her.

Jessica sees her movement and freezes, she wants to kiss him more afraid of him exiting. James is now just inches from Jessica's face. She feels her breath warm and closes her eyes. Jessica hopes he to kiss.

James comes closer, turns his face and puts a delicate kiss on her cheek. Jessica is paralyzed by the touch of his lips on her skin.

"Bye, Jessica"

"Bye, James..." she says sweetly.

James is now back in the cab, and Jessica continues to stare at the taxi until it disappears at the end of the street.

Half an hour later...Jessica is already in her nightgown lying on her bed, but can not sleep, the thought of James does not go out of her mind. Jessica begins to wonder what it would be like to have James in her life, to sleep and wake up next to her, to have her body warm on cold nights. But the loge thought disappeared..."I'm too old, he'll never want to stay with me" she cries until she feels exhausted and sleeps.
