Business Class

"Excuse me a second." Thank god the seatbelt sign was off. She slipped into the restroom without checking to see if there was a line.

She couldn't be sure in the bad light, but it sure as hell felt as if she was blushing like some kind of idiot. She tried to laugh it off. He's a college kid. Or did he say grad school? Whatever, he didn't look much older than her son. Got upgraded by flirting with the clerk, no doubt. Did he really just tell her he likes to spank women? How did this conversation get started, anyway?

She had made tradeoffs for her career, but she hardly considered herself under-sexed. She certainly wasn't a prude (they always did a double-take at checkout when they saw her pay-per-view selections. Good thing they aren't itemized on the bill). There was no reason to be shocked just because some kid that she'd never see again likes to...

Still, she was practically panting. Most of the men she met either worked for or were in competition with her. Everyone screws, no problem there, but she was realistic -- she knew these guys talked. She figured she was probably a good enough lay, but she was also careful to be the kind of good lay that you wouldn't try to take advantage of later.

She'd never have to see him again. Men don't talk about sex unless they want to have it with you and what do you know, this little pervert wants to spank her. Goddamit, she'd let him. She became exuberant and giddy at the thought.

He made eye contact and smiled as she made her way back to her seat. That meant something. Time to make this happen.

She moved the conversation around to logistics. He went to school in town, was planning to take some kind of shuttle bus. She'd offer him a ride. Think. She had no idea if his place was plausibly on the way to her hotel. She'd walk with him to baggage claim, stealing a quick look at the map. Then she'd know which way to say she was going so he'd be going her way. He'd push things a little more when they were alone in the car. Perfect.

Fasten your seatbelts, stow your tray-tables, pull your seatbacks up and your panties down: seat 6A is about to get herself spanked!

She knew she had him as they maneuvered down the jetway and onto the moving walkway. She blurted out some cliche about how in her job she's usually the one doing the spanking, but his sympathetic response wiped away all the awkwardness. Mrs. Robinson, eat your heart out.

She smiled bravely as they shook hands. Of course his girlfriend was waiting right there to pick him up. She hadn't felt that knot in her stomach since high school. She could probably have slipped him her card, but instead just said her goodbyes and followed the signs to car rental.

The End

awww, all that buid up and then no spanking for her. This story is an intresting one. The author gives us a lot of insight into this character. The descriptions are helpful in understanding her needs and desires. I think it takes guts to write a more realistic story that might not neccessarily end happily. Paragraph 8 is hilarious. Nice piece of writing...

It is fascinating to watch this woman - who although liberated enough for somewhat casual sex and for watching racy pay-per-view movies, is nevertheless not entirely at ease with the concept of spanking - gradually come to terms with the idea. The twist at the end, although effective as a storytelling device, is obviously somewhat disappointing. Maybe there could be a sequel where the protagonists accidentally bump into each other in the city center the next day, or something?

I thought the buisness class refered just to the airplane setting, not an attitude. Guess I was wrong. Solidly written with subtlely inserted humour.

An interesting and funny description of a woman contemplating getting spanked by a younger man. The woman seemed believeable, and the way her thoughts jump around in her agitation was well conveyed. The way in which it all ends in a tremendous anti-climax was a very nice twist.
