Solange scowled, looking at Ashley with squinted eyes.
“You look strange, as if you were running away from something. The doctor told us that Hunter woke up, have you two talked?” Ashley asked, taking Solange's hand and leading her away towards the waiting room.
“Well, I really wouldn’t call it talking, but yes, we talked a little and then we kissed,” Solange said as she blushed.
“You kissed?” Ashley whispered, sounding a little surprised as Solange nodded.
“And this time it was even better than the last time. I just can't seem to control myself when I am around that man, Ash. It is as if he makes me lose my thinking sense because all that I can think of is kissing him and being in his arms. You wouldn’t even believe it if I told you that I had to get out of the room because I am feeling way too aroused,” she said as they stopped by a coffee vendor to buy some for themselves.
“Wow, it looks like for you actions are speaking louder than words,” Ashley said, and as Solange looked at her closely, she saw the glow on her face.
“What about you, how is it going with—”
“His name is Marty,” Ashley said with a dreamy look on her face. “I really like the guy so far, and I'm hoping that we can get to know each other. I however envy you, I mean, you kissed.”
“Yes, and the doctor caught us in the act. You wouldn’t believe how embarrassed I was. The doctor referred to us as newlyweds, and it got me thinking about what it would feel like to be married to Hunter,” Solange said with excitement as they sat down. “We requested the doctor to allow him to be discharged in the morning and he agreed. I have a feeling that it might turn into a very exciting evening.”
“Girl, don’t you think that you might be moving a little too fast? You barely know the man and you are already dying to have sex with him. You’ve only had sloppy sex with a guy almost twice your age so, I think you should share that treasure the next time with someone that you are very sure about,” Ashley said as Solange thought over what she was saying.
“You are right, Ash, and that’s the reason why I want to share it with Hunter. He is the right man for me,” Solange said with conviction. “I have never been more sure about anything before.”
“I just hope that you are right, and believe me, sex is pretty addictive here at The Village, and you two might not be able to keep your hands off each other,” Ashley laughed.
“Yes, so I heard. You wouldn’t believe how many times I have been tempted to give in to sex since I’ve been here. There is this intense heat that I feel, especially when I eat very spicy food.” She joked, and decided not to reveal her intimate secret to her friend. Solange would keep Ashley in the dark about the fact that she’d already been bitten by the Olympic Village bug and had already had sex with Hunter.
“You are a brave woman, Sola, I couldn’t wait that long, the temptation was way too much and I gave it away more than once on a first date,” Ashley said. “Anyway, come on, let us go and see how the men are doing, and besides, I want to finally be introduced to this man that is driving you crazy so that I can warn him that if he ever does anything to hurt you, I will kill him.”
“I checked Hunter out while he was asleep and I was glad to see that all he had was a small bruise on his side,” she said as she got up and they began walking off towards the rooms.
“Sola, are you out of your mind, if they ever find out you could lose your job. The contracts bind us and there is no way we can practice sports medicine anywhere else apart from the track and field athletes. You should not risk your job like that again,” Ashley reprimanded.
“Well, at this point I don’t really care because I no longer want to work anywhere near Jerome. As soon as we get back home, I am going to ask for a transfer of sorts, and if they can't do that, I'll quit,” Solange had thought about
