There is something...

Ella paused. Her gaze rested on the tub of lotion she kept on the kitchen side for after she did the washing up.

"Well... there is something," she said, barely believing she was about to say this. "Normally I get my husband to rub lotion on my back before I get dressed, but he left in such a hurry this morning, he didn't get a chance to. Would you mind helping me?"

She took up the lotion and held it out to him. The man grinned, taking the lotion. When his fingers grazed hers, Ella felt a flutter in her stomach. Shit, she was doing this.

"Of course, love - you can call me Dex, by the way."

"Ella." Ella turned her back to him and lowered her robe so that her back was exposed. She made sure to keep her arms up covering her breasts.

"Well, Ella," said Dex, squirting lotion across her back, and starting to rub it in, "I hope I can give you what you need."

Ella didn't reply. She suddenly realised the magnitude of what she was doing. His hands felt hot on her skin, and sent tingles up and down her body. Dex's hands lingered on her lower back, before sliding up her sides. When they almost reached her breasts, Ella gasped.

"This alright, love?"
