couch drunk kiss

we end up back at her place. First, we get there
and I sit back on the couch. She asks if I want a
drink, so I tell her NO. Suggesting that she is
just trying to get me drunk. We watch TV for a
little bit; then when I was thirsty, I got up and
asked her if she wanted a drink.She said no, so
when I went to her fridge and I asked her what do
you want me to bring you back, because I'm not
drinking alone. After we both finish our first
drink, I lean over and pecked her on the lips. She
tried to kiss me back and I told her to settle
down and go get us another drink, which she did.

....Fast forward, after a night of everything, but
sex (I didn't have a condom), as I was kissing her
good night (she wanted me to stay, but I was
leaving for a trip Friday morning, so I told her
No.)

she said, "I'm going to regret not sleeping with
you in the morning."

I smile and kiss her.

She said, "Maybe next time."

I said, "Maybe."

Then she said, "or the time after that." That
light bulb my David D. light bulb went on, this
preparedst.

Being prepaid I said, "What makes you think I'll
want to have sex with you next time? Or the time
after that?"

She said, "You're a guy and that's what all guys
want."

I said, "Maybe I'll only kiss you next time."

She said, "I hope we'd AT LEAST do that."

Driving the nail home that I was in control and
she wasn't going to use sex as a weapon, I said,
"Fine, then hand holding it is."

She said, "Hand holding?"

hand-holding, "Yes, you've been promoted to
hand holding."

She said, "How is that a promotion?"

I kissed her and said, "I'll tell you next time."
