A few hours after collaborating with Neil to develop her , Sarah began to formulate her next plan. The lack of a deadline for the load she was delivering offered her some opportunities, but an unusual sense of guilt also shaped her perspective.
Claudette had put a lot of effort into making the motel room feel special, something that Sarah knew she would always remember. However, despite this, Sarah felt disappointed with herself for only using one of the toys earlier, as it didn’t meet the standards she expected of herself.
With Neil having been sent to get food and drink from the provisions store next to the motel, Sarah worked on her ideas. The wish to show Claudette how much she valued their friendship was central to what Sarah had in mind, although what was best for Neil and herself was important too.
Sarah realised a period catching up with the task she and Neil had been set would erase any feelings of guilt they might have had. She felt certain Neil would share her concerns too. Sarah also recognised she had demanded quite a lot out of Neil in the last session of fun, and he might enjoy time spent where Sarah’s demands were focused on toys, not squeezing his cock to within an inch of its life.
As well as planning to run her idea past Neil, Sarah also knew they would need to arrange to stay another night in the motel. Yes, it could never match the previous one, she understood that, but the truck’s cab might be needed at other times, and a room seemed a nicer prospect anyway.
Once Neil had returned from his shopping expedition, Sarah outlined the plans she had been making to him. Neil immediately understood Sarah’s wish to show appropriate thanks to Claudette and the importance of the toy review too. When it came to Sarah’s concern for his cock, Neil couldn’t stop laughing, and his suggestion that Sarah’s plan was because she had decided she never wanted to see it again made her giggle for a long time when she heard it.
Worried about questions regarding Neil and whether any drivers she knew had seen them together, Sarah decided to return to the motel alone after Neil confirmed that her plan sounded good to him. Seeing Sarah again lifted Claudette’s spirits during her long shift. When Sarah explained that catching up on product testing was the reason they needed a room, Claudette’s weariness vanished, and she felt genuinely happy instead.
When it was time to walk to the motel, Sarah and Neil strolled hand in hand, smiling. They also informed Claudette that they wanted to cover all the expenses this time. They joked that if a clerical error caused the payment to end up in Claudette’s hands, they would claim they knew nothing about it.
After entering the motel room, Neil and Sarah had a session of ‘normal people behaviour’, as they called it. The topic that started everything off was about family and siblings, and it did throw up a surprise or two.
Neil discovered that Sarah’s life as a truck driver had an unusual background; her parents owned one of the largest haulage companies in the country. Sarah explained that her choice of career was a way to demonstrate her independence and her ability to succeed on her own terms. She concluded by telling Neil that he was among the very few people who knew about her unique .
Although Neil’s family background wasn’t as remarkable as the one he had just heard about, Sarah loved listening to his stories. For many, discovering so much about someone with whom you spend only a small portion of your life might seem strange. However, neither Neil nor Sarah felt that way, which they both agreed was what mattered most.
More conversation and refreshments followed after the background revelations until Sarah stood up and shouted, “y time!” loudly. It was just how she did things, after all.
After choosing a toy from the goody bag, Sarah passed Neil her . She realised that what lay ahead would require some creativity to integrate with her vibe work, but she felt confident that Neil would handle this task well. The toy Sarah chose could move in nearly any direction and had impressive speed and vibration intensity options as well.
After lying down on the bed next to Neil, Sarah selected the levels for the toy’s variables. Once she was satisfied with her choices and Neil had the in hand, she felt ready for him to read to her.
“All the notes you see are meant to remind you to place yourself in the . Terms like ‘the stranger’ and ‘her savior’ are now unnecessary,” Sarah said with a smile.
Neil found himself in a scenario where the stranger, now referred to as Neil, was given the task of pleasing Sarah, with an element of risk involved. He realised he would need to make some creative rewrites, but he quickly demonstrated his ability to adapt.
“Taking their seats on the benches by the provisions store within the rest stop, Neil helped Sarah out of her coat and laid it over her. Excited by the opportunity this offered, Sarah slipped her jeans and panties down, and slid the vibrator against her clit, with passersby unaware of the mischief in their midst.” Neil began.
Sarah already had the vibrator against her wetness by the time Neil had finished reading the paragraph, and she wanted him to take over toy duties in between his reading segments too, which he did. Sarah was impressed by the latest toy, and she smiled broadly whenever she gave the nod, which was the agreed continuation signal.
“Neil planted innocentlooking kisses on Sarah’s cheek, as he used the vibrator on her secretly. Sarah knew what she liked and was soon masking noises of arousal, masking them with fake coughs, which Neil found highly amusing.
Slowly, Sarah felt Neil start to glide a little more of the toy inside her body, the ease of doing so providing a clue as to how wet she was. The vibrator fitted like a glove, and Sarah tensed herself around it, as it pulsated, moved, and rotated inside her.” Neil read out.
Sarah felt every movement described come to life with the toy Neil was exciting her with, The risks felt real, despite being in the privacy of the motel room, but vivid imagination and Neil’s telling were the deciding factors in making Sarah believe she had been transported by erotic magic into the park..
The next nod from Sarah saw Neil describing her as feeling increasingly aroused, both by the deeper position of the toy inside her, and the increase in the number of people who were walking past.
“Sarah’s mistake of voicing a deep moan of pleasure out loud was one she got away with, but Neil wasn’t letting up, and she knew the risk of climax sneaking up on her was real. Neil was holding the toy against the spot she used as a trigger and that she loved to excite. Neil kept it there, willing her to climax, as Sarah battled to control what was begging to escape.”
Listening to Neil reading felt even more special for Sarah now. It was a commentary on how he was using the toy, as well as an accurate description of how she felt. Sarah smiled and shuddered erotically, realising any resistance to her approaching climax was futile.
As Neil spoke of Sarah’s noisy and barely concealed onset of climax in the park, the woman herself followed suit. Sarah urged Neil to let the toy give her all it had, as she felt herself being overwhelmed. This was exactly what he did, of course.
Sarah loved the sensation of the toy, but the way Neil had weaved the reality into the and made it about her was unforgettable.
Neil continued to describe Sarah’s climax, based loosely on her , as she enjoyed the reality for all it was worth. Sarah’s pleasure continued long after she had dispensed with the toy and she laughed, giggled, and smiled until relative normality had been restored.
“Drink, snack, cuddle, write up, shower. Then we go again,” Sarah said enthusiastically.
Events followed Sarah’s itinerary almost to the letter, although the pair of product testers did touch base with the real world briefly. Neil felt it right to explain he was enjoying himself immensely in his role as product tester’s assistant and that he hoped Sarah knew it. Neil hadn’t said anything Sarah wasn’t confident was true, but his taking the time to say it? Beautiful.
Sarah’s next pick from the goody bag was a toy similar to one she already had at home, which she called ‘The Rear Gunner.’ This toy was particularly enjoyable when she wanted a change. When she mentioned this to Neil, he promptly made a note to include the information when revising the next part of Sarah’s , as they had previously agreed.
“Let’s go!” Sarah announced as she finished one of the drinks she had put within reach.
Neil looked at, amended, and then began to read Sarah’s . It centred around an evening with old school friends; None of them knew anything about Sarah’s life other than the fact that she drove a truck.
When Neil read the part of the that included the conversation about , he smiled, as did Sarah when she heard his reworked version of her original writing.
“Neil was confused to see Sarah stop the truck after a very short while and even more so when she greeted the quartet of her friends who had been waiting for her to arrive. He learned that Sarah had arranged to meet up so she and her friends could have some girly fun, whilst as the only straight member of the group of friends, Sarah, could enjoy the treat of her rear gunner whilst seeing what everyone else got up to.
“To be fair, I didn’t see that coming the first time I read it, and I’m glad I could leave it as it was!” Neil said, laughing as loudly as Sarah was doing.
Sarah was focused, but also listening out for something too. Her heart skipped a beat when she heard a familiar sound, that of a spacious motor home.
“I hope a venue change won’t kill the mood,” Sarah said to Neil as she marched him, the , herself, and her vibrator toward the newly arrived motor home and its four female occupants.
Neil’s jaw dropped as it dawned on him what the next part of the would be about. Sarah only had a few seconds to bring Neil up to speed, but she nailed it.
“We drive somewhere quiet. The girls have a foursome, and you send me wild, tucking my back end… with the product test vibe, I mean, of course!” Sarah explained.
Once Saran had clarified matters, she and Neil were encouraged to get inside the motor home, which departed immediately after.
Despite being taken aback by the whirlwind of change, Neil was soon chatting to Sarah’s friends, once everyone had been introduced. Neil took the decision to immerse himself in what was being said, as it seemed easier than trying to take in what Sarah had said to him.
Sarah’s friends already knew Neil’s presence made him trustworthy. They were aware of enough of what made Sarah tick to realise he must have had other unique qualities, too.
“A seal of approval from Sarah makes you very honoured,” one of the quartet said.
“I know,” Neil replied, giving Sarah’s hand a squeeze.
After an hourlong journey, the motorhome turned into a driveway. It stopped at the end, and everyone got out. Neil and Sarah followed the occupants of the motorhome into a large room. Neil and Sarah were directed to a sofa bed, whilst the four women who had met up with Sarah undressed and took their places on a large bed opposite where Neil and Sarah had been stationed.
As soon as everyone was settled, Sarah asked Neil to begin reading her to her.
With his familiar amendment style, Neil set the scene, and he spoke about how Sarah’s love of seeing her friends arousing each other always made her so horny.
“The prospect of watching them delivering orgasm to each other whilst Neil pleasured her with a fat vibrator up her rear was very exciting.
Sarah eagerly told Neil to get started, and she welcomed the arrival of the exciting toy into her body with a squeal of delight.
Sarah felt the vibrator dance wonderfully as she watched her friends pair up and begin to caress each other’s bodies, Why people couldn’t understand that seeing her friends happy turned her on was something she’d pondered often, but she had decided it might stay a mystery to her forever,” Neil read out.
Sarah found hearing Neil’s reading of her as satisfying as everything else and the rear gunner was adding some extra spice to her pleasure too. Watching her friends was a different kind of bonus, and Sarah chose to observe the facial expressions of those participating rather than focusing on their actions.
Excited by what she saw, Sarah wanted more toy action and reading from Neil. Her wish was granted immediately
As Neil applied himself to the task of pleasing Sarah further with the rear gunner, he smiled at the dreamy sounds it brought so readily. The four women in their own space were deeply engrossed in mutual masturbation. All was boiling up nicely.
Further attention on Sarah followed Neil’s next reading phase and the passage’s focus on the four women brought more laughter from Sarah. The next thing Neil said was significant too.
Neil read out a passage that summarised Sarah’s arousal and her attempts to hold back her impending climax.
“As she applied the brakes, others pressed the gas pedal, a wild deliverance was approaching for all,” Neil said.
Neil’s description rang out in the room, as a reality almost identical in every way unfolded. It was intense, loud, and very erotic.
When the four bodies on the large bed began to convulse in a spectacular climax, Sarah’s did so too, the combination of seeing the joy, hearing a description of it, and Neil’s work with the vibrator providing an erotic, irresistible cocktail.
Sarah bellowed, convulsed, and cried tears of joy throughout a fierce climax. Her eyes, ears, and electrified clit sent their gifts as one as the finale to what had been written was being played out, No words were needed at this point, and none were spoken.
While her friends rocked in wild orgasmic delight together, Sarah enjoyed Neil’s continued use of the toy inside her body. Sarah’s climax was an experience of so many parts, and the fact it was a group of people she adored so much who were central to it was the magical ingredient.
As those who had been excited so wonderfully continued to rejoice and enjoy themselves, Neil knew how much this meant to everyone present, especially Sarah. His own view was that his contribution hadn’t been the reason for allround success, although Sarah’s opinion on this differed entirely and it always would.
Once everyone had been allowed to enjoy the full extent of their pleasure, the event reached the end of its key phase. A taxi that had been ordered picked Neil and Sarah up from the house, and they were taken back to where Sarah’s truck had been parked.
“I’d better knock out that product review for Claudette whilst everything’s still fresh in my mind,” Sarah said, before sharing a long embrace with Neil. After that, Sarah did exactly what she said she would do.
After finishing her reviewing task, Sarah reminded Neil the remainder of the goody bag would need testing before the journey came to an end. As she did this, Sarah asked after the welfare of Neil’s cock, its owner saying it was now fully recovered, if still rather shellshocked.
Neil’s answer brought a laugh out of Sarah’s mouth, Yes, the body part in question might have its most critical job to do at some point, but the humour diverted these thoughts from Sarah’s mind well.
Sarah decided a question and answer session would be a good use of time next. The content was based on childhood memories. Neil explained that, as a child, he had probably travelled on a similar route to the one he was taking at present, as a part of family camping trips in a car.
“Boxed curries and bread that was an exotic shape. Oh, the good times!” Neil said with a smile of nostalgia.
When her turn arrived, Sarah explained most of her early memories had trucks in them due to the family business and that they were happy times, with many highlights.
More memories followed as the conversation flowed. The focus was on the positive, and this seemed so fitting.
Feeling relaxed and happy could have had many consequences, but for Sarah, it meant her thoughts turned to completing her research for Claudette. Once the matter had been raised, the finer details were discussed.
“If we can finish the project before we head off, I’m sure Claudette will be very happy,” Sarah said with a fake expression of seriousness.
Sarah decided somewhere comfortable would be more suitable than the truck’s cab to complete the research that had been agreed upon. She did feel, however, that a different environment to the motel Claudette worked in was preferable.
“I want to see Claudette with a finished research task, rather than causing her to have to do extra work,” Sarah explained.
A suitable venue was found less than twenty minutes drive away. This seemed perfect, as a final report could then be compiled on the remainder of the project and given to Claudette personally.
Sarah felt rather guilty, suggesting that wanting to complete the review task was her only motive behind her plan. It wasn’t. The additional reasons would need their time and place, but this was a reality Sarah would face only if and when it was necessary.
To say that the next product test went well would be an understatement. Neil’s reading duties were discharged perfectly, and the scenario of Sarah and Neil noisily pleasing each other with their fingers on a campsite seemed wonderfully in keeping with earlier conversations.
“The manager of the site had received another complaint about noise, although he wished he had been given more details, as he listened to Sarah’s loud sounds of climax from inside the tent,” Neil read out.
Sarah’s ability to picture the scene described was down to Neil’s work with his reading and physical contribution. The motel may have had better soundproofing than a tent, but Sarah’s sounds of pleasure were loud enough to make this element of the more real than intended.
Once Sarah had enjoyed the toy’s final effects, drinks and a shower were taken. After that, it was agreed a walk to get something to eat and a chat about nothing in particular was the way to proceed.
“Maybe we should finish with a flourish and test the last two toys in one session?” Sarah suggested.
“Whatever the lady wants,” Neil replied, brushing a touch against Sarah’s already aroused nipples.
Before following Sarah’s itinerary and settling back down to completing the research project, the talk turned briefly to what the schedule would be thereafter. Sarah explained this was a conversation she wanted to save until later. Neil felt the response may have been because the adventure was reaching its latter stages, but he respected Sarah’s wishes without comment.
A leisurely stroll and a light meal were enjoyed with a chat about musical tastes. Neil’s assertion that if he liked something, he didn’t care if it were trendy or not to do so came as no surprise to Sarah, although her own taste for metal and rock wasn’t something Neil would have guessed. The conversations continued until a check of her watch saw Sarah suggest it was time to return to the motel.
Once Sarah had given the last two toys a lookover and assessed what they had to offer, she climbed onto the bed and told Neil to join her. They were both already naked, which meant Sarah could see Neil was standing to attention already, which brought a smile to her lips as she heard his introduction to the latest part of her .
This time, Sarah had placed herself and Neil behind a barrier beside the motorway, with her truck immobilised by a windscreen crack that needed repair. Neil explained Sarah’s annoyance at being told she’d have a twohour wait for help and that he and Sarah had decided to pass the time with some fun in an overgrown patch a few yards away from where they were standing.
Neil read out Sarah’s explanation that she, Neil, and her favorite vibrator had made their way into the long grass, and Sarah had ordered the stranger to excite her with the toy.
“She told Neil her treasured vibrator had never let her down yet and that it was up to him to make sure this record remained intact.” Neil read out.
With Neil having paused his reading, he massaged Sarah’s body before slipping the first of the two vibrators up for review inside her.
Sarah played slowly and gently with the first of the two toys being tested. She was already dreamily aroused. She did wonder how Neil might incorporate the second vibrator she had with her into the . but she had complete faith in his ability to do so.
As Sarah used the toy, she listened to what Neil had to say once more. It was memorable in its own way, for sure.
Neil began to read, He felt nervous, yet also eager to know what Sarah made of his changes.
“Although focused on the pleasure of the toy, Sarah found herself distracted. She didn’t want the fun to stop, however, merely turning her head towards the direction of a noise she had heard. Her jaw dropped as she saw one of her best friends, Claudette, who worked in a motel she used regularly, standing above her, holding another vibrator in her hand. The newcomer to the scene looked at Sarah and then spoke.
“Friends help each other out when they need it most,” Claudette reminded Sarah with a giggle and glint in her eye,” Neil said, making his own decision to stop reading at this point, as a roar of unrestrained laughter rang out from Sarah’s mouth.
“Genius level!” Sarah exclaimed as soon as she had stopped laughing enough to speak.
Hearing Neil’s unforgettable rework of the original part of the was everything about him in a nutshell to Sarah. He had also found a way to make playing with a vibrator busy on both front and rear duty make sense, in terms of bringing everything to life, too.
Lying on her side on the motel room bed, Sarah was able to enjoy the combined pleasure of her own work and Neil’s with the final toys being reviewed. The combination was very effective, and Sarah only needed Neil’s focus on using the vibrator alone to deliver a sweet, laughterfilled climax.
Sarah was excited by the release ignited in her body and by everything that had contributed to it. Had she ever laughed her way to orgasms in the way she had just done? If she had, she had no recollection of it whatsoever.
The rhythms of release Sarah enjoyed were accompanied by a smile that never left her face. Neil was similarly ecstatic and the energy of Sarah’s finale bore testament to just how much fun everything had been.
“I simply have to give my last review to Claudette in person, this time. I’ll do a proper one for the toy people, of course, but the end of the goody bag rating needs marking in a special way.” Sarah said, to an instant nod of agreement from Neil.
Sarah called Claudette to arrange a meeting with her to fit in with her break time at work. Once this had been done, the truck was on its way soon afterward.
Claudette met Sarah and Neil outside the motel entrance as soon as her break began. Sarah explained that she had completed her reviews. She then shared her decision to deliver the verdict on the last two items in person and explained why she felt this approach was appropriate.
Just as Sarah had done, Claudette fell into fits of laughter over Neil’s creative amendments to the . Sarah said she wished her friend had been there to hear the passage being read out, although Claudette replied, saying this might have been too weird, even for her!
When Sarah told Neil to excuse himself, as she and Claudette needed a girly chat, it seemed perfectly natural to him. The conversation the women had was very serious, but Claudette was optimistic with her response to Sarah’s words.
“I don’t know him as you do, Sarah, and even you know him in a unique way, but if anyone can get you where you need to be with this, Neil strikes me as having the qualities to be the one,” Claudette told her friend, giving her a hug as she did so.
Claudette’s opinion matched Sarah’s. but hearing Claudette voicing it meant so much to Sarah, and she knew she would be able to draw strength from this when she needed it most.
“Once Neil knows and plays his part, he will have banished your pain forever, Sarah,” Claudette concluded.
Neil noticed that both Sarah and Claudette were smiling when they returned from their private chat. He asked no questions, but he was quietly curious, of course.
***
Neil and Sarah discussed Claudette as they continued their journey south in the truck. They both agreed that she had demonstrated the immense kindness people can possess. They promised to remember this lesson in the future, especially during times when kindness seemed scarce.
Although the discussion focused on kindness, Sarah found herself imagining the exact opposite. She felt a pang of sadness that a positive and uplifting conversation could trigger such negative thoughts. However, this reflection ultimately led her to a decision she never expected to make.
Sarah realised that the conversation she needed to have with Neil was one she couldn’t attempt while driving. However, she didn’t want to alarm someone so dear to her by abruptly announcing a change of plans either. Her professionalism at work helped her push the matter aside for a while, allowing her to focus on driving. It wasn’t until she stopped at another rest area, just an hour into her journey, that she finally allowed herself to think about it.
Sitting in the truck, Sarah turned to Neil and kissed him. She then mentioned she had something very important to share. She asked him to let her finish before he responded, expressing her hope that her belief in the uniqueness of the man beside her would soon be proven true. Neil could see the emotional turmoil on Sarah’s face, so he reached out his hand for her to hold while she spoke. She grasped it tightly as she shared her thoughts.
Sarah explained she had spent many years haunted by something very few people knew about, or at least the complete . She told Neil it had all begun when she met a man in a bar one night, and they hit it off very well.
“He told me he had a room in the student accommodation across the road from the bar. He seemed genuine, and since I was feeling adventurous, I thought, ‘Yeah, why not?'”
Neil listened intently as Sarah gripped his hand and told him she and the man had enjoyed a wild night of .
“My favourite thing was always giving a blow job, and I had a reputation amongst those who had experienced my work that I was bloody good. On this particular night, I ended up giving a rather excellent one. The guy I’d met certainly seemed to really enjoy it, and he appeared so normal and nice.
We even swapped phones so we could put our contact details into each other’s, although he finished his part of this in the toilet, saying the blowjob I’d given had made him need to pee.
In hindsight, everything seemed a bit suspicious, but I went home that night feeling happy, having enjoyed a nice time with a decent guy. The next morning, I woke up very late; it was around midday when I finally checked my phone. I noticed I had dozens of missed calls from different friends, along with several voice messages.” Sarah explained.
Sarah told Neil she had only needed to listen to one of the messages to discover what had happened.
“The guy I had met had paid a student to rent his room in the halls, and he had set up cameras to make videos of anyone he enticed back there, with the intention of putting them online. He had also copied all of the contacts on my phone into his and sent the video to all of them too. Only a few people saw it at first, but then it started to get posted in all kinds of places using different email addresses and phone numbers, I contacted the police, but the CCTV in the student accommodation was broken, and the guy who did this was never traced,” Sarah said.
Sarah paused to kiss Neil on the cheek, her grip on his hand still as tight as it had been since she had begun to hold it, Neil stayed silent, but he looked at Sarah with loving concern, which gave her the strength she needed to continue.
Sarah explained that, whilst what had happened had made her sad, nervous, and wary, being robbed of a treasured pleasure through having it tainted by a terrible experience was as painful as any of the other consequences.
“Writing my was my own form of therapy. The accounts based on good experiences were a way to try to come to terms with a dreadful one. The last chapter was the most traumatic, as it is concerned with something I’ve never been able to contemplate doing again, but I do now and with you, Neil.
For me to get to this point shows what I think of you and that I’ve found someone who has taken me to the verge of slaying my demons. If you walked away now, you would still have been the man who took me so far, but if you will take me on that last step and help me to at least try to rid myself of this burden, I’ll never forget it, even if I back out and fail.” Sarah concluded.
Neil held Sarah in a silent embrace for some time. As he glanced up to look into her eyes, he felt sure Sarah wanted him to respond. He gestured to try to find out if Sarah was ready to hear from him.
“Say whatever is on your mind, Neil,” Sarah whispered.
Taking a moment to gather his thoughts, Neil explained that what Sarah had shared was one of the most courageous speeches he had ever heard. He assured her he would support her in whatever way she felt appropriate and emphasised that, regardless of the outcome, she should never view any result as a failure, only as a delay in achieving success. Neil told Sarah he would be there for her as long as she wanted and encouraged her to take as much time as she needed to ensure this was the opportunity she was seeking.
If Sarah had any lingering doubts, they vanished after what Neil had said to her. In truth, she felt certain that if anyone could help her with what she needed, it was the stranger she had met at the port. He was already unforgettable, regardless of what happened from that moment until they went their separate ways.
“I’m ready to discuss plans to make this work, if you are, Neil,” Sarah said in a whisper.
“I am,” Neil replied, sharing a long, tight, and supportive embrace with Sarah as he did so.
Neil and Sarah agreed to set aside as much time as was needed to agree on a plan and its finer details. Sharing similar views on the most important aspects made this easier than could have been the case, and Neil wrote everything down to allow the plan to be referred to or amended as required.
‘A nice hotel room somewhere vaguely in the direction we’re heading’ was the first thing that went onto the ‘agreed list’. The next issue was how the day should be spent prior to the event in question. Laughter, hugs, kisses, jokes, a good meal, and a promise to air any concerns all made it onto the list. An agreement to let Neil read what Sarah had written before using it and make any changes he felt beneficial was Sarah’s idea. Neil agreed to this proposal as soon as Sarah put it forward.
Sarah’s final suggestion was that no toys played a part and it was all about sharing an experience. Neil wrote this down straight away There was no debate to be had.
Finalising a framework to work with took very little time indeed, and accommodation was also booked and confirmed within an hour. While Sarah had been making these arrangements, Neil had kept himself busy with remodelling Sarah’s . He knew it would be a difficult read, and it was, but he completed his task.
En route to the hotel Sarah had booked, the first stop made allowed her to send a message to Claudette about everything that had been planned and agreed; Claudette’s reply simply advised Sarah to trust her instincts and Neil and spend forever afterwards reaping the rewards of having done so.
Previous legs of the journey they had taken together had seen Neil and Sarah getting to know one another. To some, two people doing this when they would soon part ways would have seemed pointless, but neither of the two people involved saw it that way, and so this was what happened once more.
The future and their hopes relating to it were the topics Sarah chose to be the focus of the next conversation. Its choice had been deliberate and pertinent to the situation, and both she and Neil’s answers gave a clue as to why they had gotten along so well during the trip.
A fuel and comfort stop an hour’s drive from the hotel gave an opportunity to ensure no change of heart or concerns had affected the plans that had been agreed upon. Two answers in the negative and a long embrace confirmed they had not.
When Sarah steered the truck into the truck park that was closest to the hotel, she felt calm and full of optimism. Neil was similarly upbeat, and after a taxi ride to their destination, the two of them walked into the reception of the highlyrated hotel in very good spirits indeed.
After a smooth checkin, Neil and Sarah were shown to their room. The suite was elegant, just as Sarah had expected, creating an immediate sense of relaxation. While part of her felt it would be wise to dive into their plans right away, she knew she had to address an important matter with Neil, something she felt sure would come as a surprise to him.
Booking the room was very straightforward, and the reality matched the beautiful pictures on the website perfectly. Most amenities were included in the room’s price, and the staff made it clear that they could assist with nearly anything for their guests if given enough advance notice.
After reading the information, Sarah recalled an issue she had been grappling with in her mind. She hadn’t discussed it with Neil yet, as she wasn’t sure whether to pursue the idea. However, once she decided to go ahead with her plan, she found that the right moment to tell Neil never presented itself.
Sarah’s plans required a bit of luck, and fortunately, she got just that. Finding a retailer close to the hotel at such short notice seemed almost too good to be true, but the company assured her there would be no problem at all.
Sarah knew she had to talk to Neil and was preparing to do so as he handed her a drink from the minibar. Just as she was about to bring up the topic, her plans were interrupted by the telephone ringing. It was a receptionist informing her that the packages she had been expecting had arrived and she could call to have them delivered to the room at any time.
Sarah was informed that members of the hotel’s staff would bring everything upstairs and handle the packages as previously agreed. Sarah felt relieved to receive this call, but she realised the conversation she needed to have with Neil could no longer be postponed. Without delay, Sarah explained to Neil she needed to discuss something important with him.
When we get through this, and I know we will, having everything on film will make me feel my favourite pleasure is mine again forever. I’m not doing this because I think I will forget the reality; I never will, but I want everything to have good memories attached, including being filmed,” Sarah said nervously.
“No problem,” Neil replied.
