His deep moan acknowledges his power over me as his strong arms wrap themselves around me and lifts me off my feet. I spread my legs wide for him, opening the gateway to my soul. His cock, big, bold, beautiful, slides inside, and we become one.

Free of any constraints, we fuck until we explode together with passion.

Then I collapse on him, and he cuddles me, holding me tight while we recuperate.

After a few moments, I lift my face, kiss his chest, and say, “I think I saw stars.”

He chuckles as he slowly lowers me down to stand on my own feet. “I told you my rocket was going to send you into orbit.”

I laugh too. “Yes, you did.”

When we arrive at Been Jammin’, we walk through the casino to the Whitney Houston’s, I Will Always Love You, Cirque du Soleil show ticket counter and get in line. There are five couples in front of us, so it moves fast, and we are seated well before the show starts.

The auditorium surrounds the stage on three sides, and there are hundreds of seats. We are in the middle at eye level. Crockett’s broad chest is wider than the seat, so he puts his arm around the back of mine and leans over to give the woman sitting next to him her space. I cuddle up under his wing, and his fingertips play against my skin where they touch. “Comfy?”

I nod. “Quite.”

He chuckles.

The lights dim, and the show begins. For the next two hours, we watch a beautiful blonde woman transform herself in and out of the personification of the late, great Whitney Houston.

Siri sings with a voice that so closely matches Whitney’s that at first, I thought she was lip syncing, only to be proven wrong when she added a spoken word tribute to her. The production consists of silhouettes and slide shows across Whitney's mega screen, while Siri dances either solo or as a group with other dancers. The routines vary based on the song, but each is unique, different, and wonderful!

It is by far the best live show I have ever seen, and when Crockett drives us home, I ask him. “Is Siri not phenomenal?”

“She is pretty amazing.”

“I keep trying to decide which song was my favorite.”

“Why?” He cuts his eyes at me.

“Why, what?” I frown at him.

“Why choose a favorite?”

“I don’t know. But I think it’s a toss-up between ‘I Wanna Dance with Somebody’ and ‘I Will Always Love You.”

“Why?” He cuts his eyes again.

I smirk at him. “You’re messing with me, aren’t you?”

He grins. “I just want to learn what makes you tick, babe.”

I grin. “Thank God, I never realized how sweet you are.”

He chuckles. “Why?”

I laugh out loud. “Because I would have broken all the rules just to be with you.”

His smile is dream-worthy, and I continue letting him get closer to me. “The way Siri danced around the group of other dancers with ‘I Wanna Dance with Somebody’ was fun to watch. It was great! Her energy, her vibe, totally fun! You know, if you went out with her for drinks, you would have a blast.”

He interrupts. “When.”

I frown. “When, what?”

“When you go out with drinks with her.”
