Chapter 2: First Encounter
It had taken me a few hours but I was finally ready to head out and go shopping for some new clothes. I carefully examined myself in the mirror, admiring the striking beauty that I had become. I was still a bit nervous to dress like a sexy woman so I decided to dress in some of my male clothing , just somewhat altered to fit my new ripe assets.
I grabbed my baggy jeans and cut them into a short pair of denim shorts and threw on a loose fitting tank top. I headed outside and immediately stopped in awe as I gazed at my reflection in the window. I couldn't believe my eyes - I still looked a drop dead gorgeous bombshell! My legs were toned and long, my waist narrow and trim, and my chest was overflowing with luscious melons.
I smiled at my reflection, reveling in the sheer joy of my newfound femininity even though I was a bit self conscious about what others might think. I adjusted my loose tank top, ensuring that my colossal breasts remained hidden from view. I had yet to grow accustomed to the magnitude of my assets, and I knew that attracting unwanted attention would be counterproductive to my goals.
The bustling city streets were abuzz with activity, and I found myself admiring the vibrant energy that pulsed through the concrete jungle. People moved about in a flurry of movement, their faces etched with expressions of determination and purpose. I felt a strange sense of camaraderie with these strangers, knowing that we were all interconnected in our pursuit of happiness and fulfillment.
As I passed by an adult store I felt my interest rise, even as my pussy grew wetter with desire at the prospect of wearing such naughty clothing...in private of course! Working up enough courage, I went inside to browse the selection, my heart hammering in my chest. The shop was dimly lit, and the sounds of rustling fabric and muffled conversation created an atmosphere of anticipation.
I could feel the judging eyes of the customers on me, but I ignored them, focusing on my mission. I spotted several shelves stocked with various types of lingerie, my mouth watering at the sight of lacy bodysuits, sexy outfits, corsets, and stockings. I quickly found a sizeable dressing room and eagerly stepped inside, practically bursting with excitement.
I locked the door behind me and removed my borrowed clothes, leaving me standing naked in front of the mirrors. My face red with arousal, adrenaline pumping through my veins as I admired my new body. I was a stunning goddess, with my tanned skin, long hair, and voluptuous curves. I couldn't wait to slip into something seductive and see how it looked on me.
Unfortunately there was no bra that could fit over my titanic titties which actually made me giggle with pride. Still, I managed to try on several pairs of panties and skimpy thongs. I couldn't stop touching myself, enjoying the way different fabrics felt against my skin. I was definitely a natural at this. I finally chose a daring black lace thong that matched perfectly with my tanned skin.
The garter belt and thigh highs followed suit, hugging my sculpted calves and accentuating my enviable curves. As I inspected myself in the mirror, I couldn't help but admire how the ensemble transformed me into a seductive vixen. The black lace hugged my curves, showcasing my tantalizing figure, while the thigh-high stockings elongated my legs, making me appear statuesque. I knew that this outfit would make me stand out, and I was excited to show off my new assets.
Next, I slipped on a sexy skirt with a slit up the side, revealing a bit of my thigh-high stockings. The material clung to my hourglass figure, highlighting my ample ass and curvy hips. I felt confident and empowered, knowing that this attire showcased my newfound femininity. My top was a black satin halter with a plunging neckline that emphasized my bust, causing my massive mounds to spill out in a scandalizing manner.
My eyes widened as I realized that I had unintentionally chosen an outfit that was extremely provocative, even by strip club standards. I had planned to wear something more demure, but the temptation of displaying my assets proved irresistible. I wondered if I should reconsider my choice, but ultimately, I decided to embrace the boldness of my ensemble. Besides, it was already late, and I didn't want to waste time searching for another outfit.
Besides, I thought wryly, who wouldn't want to catch a glimpse of these magnificent mountains? I slipped into a pair of six inch black stilettos which brought back some of my now diminished height and made me thrust out my round ass even more. I smirked at my reflection, imagining the reactions of the men who would ogle me. I could almost hear their jaws dropping as they stared, open-mouthed, at my sinfully tempting body.
I sauntered out of the dressing room, strutting like a catwalk model, enjoying the admiring stares and whispers following me. I grinned wickedly, even as I tried to keep my emotions in check as I was freaking out internally at the sheer boldness of my appearance. I walked over to the register, eager to pay for my purchases and leave the store before my nerves completely unraveled. As I approached the cashier, I couldn't help but notice a tall, handsome man watching me intently.
He had a chiseled jaw, piercing blue eyes, and a devilish smirk that made my heart race. I blushed, trying to focus on the transaction at hand and suddenly paused at the realization that I had thought another man was attractive. I gasped and realized that not only had my body transformed but my preferences, desires and entire persona was also changing too.
As I handed over my credit card to the cashier, I couldn't help but glance at the handsome stranger again. He had an aura of confidence and charisma that radiated from him, making my knees weak and my palms sweaty. I felt an unfamiliar stirring within me, a burning hunger that I had never known before. His eyes held a mischievous glint, hinting at the wilder side of his character.
He stood there, watching me with an appraising gaze, as if weighing up the prospects of us engaging in some illicit rendezvous. I realized that I needed to get out of there before it was too late. Already I was beginning to notice other things such as the shapes and sizes of the dildos and vibrators on the walls. Even the other men in the store were starting to look pretty good as I realized with a shiver that I was weighing my options in men.
"Say...what's a little cutie like yourself doing buying all that sexy clothing by yourself?" the handsome stranger asked me as the clerk rung up my total.
My heart pounded in my chest as I met his gaze, struggling to conceal the storm of emotions coursing through me.
"Oh... I just... Uh... I like to collect unique pieces..." I stammered, hoping my words sounded convincing.
He chuckled softly, his deep, resonant laughter sending a jolt of electricity up my spine. "Well," he rumbled, his voice dripping with sultry promise, "you certainly picked out some eye-catching ensembles. I'd love to see you in some of those other outfits or maybe even outside of them."
His words struck a chord within me, his tone conveying a heated desire that ignited my libido. Despite my initial reservations, I found myself intrigued by this mysterious stranger. Perhaps I was curious to see where things led but I found my resistance slowly fading away as I decided to maybe tease him a little bit. I smirked, glancing up at him with a playful twinkle in my eyes.
"Well," I cooed in a sultry voice, "maybe I will show you someday."
The stranger laughed deeply, his eyes sparkling with amusement. "That day would be a memorable one indeed," he replied smoothly. "So tell me, lovely lady, what brings you here today? Are you feeling adventurous or do you seek companionship?"
I hesitated for a moment, debating whether to share my true intentions with him. After all, I had just undergone an extraordinary transformation, and entering into a sexual encounter with a complete stranger felt risky and reckless. But then I reminded myself that I was no longer the boring masculine individual I once was. Alyssa was bold, fearless, and unafraid to take risks. So why not indulge in some harmless flirtation?
"Well...ever since I turned 18 last month and I started...exploring my sexuality, my stupid school expelled me so now I just spend most of my days trying to experience different aspects of my femininity and sensuality." I said making it up on the spot.
I realized most of it was a lie but...there was some truth in the fact that I was an 18 year old sexpot woman whose sensuality was begging to be explored. The thought of having a forbidden encounter with a man I had just met, someone whose name I did not know, was both thrilling and terrifying. I knew that indulging in such a liaison carried inherent risks, but I wasn't afraid of the unknown anymore.
Alyssa embraced uncertainty and the promise of pleasure that awaited her. I started to realize that I truly wanted this man and that the only way I was going to be satisfied was to let him ravish me and enjoy my new body.
"I'd love to learn more about you," I purred, flashing him a sultry smile. "What's your name?"
"Call me Jack," he responded, his eyes locking onto mine with an insatiable hunger. "And what's your name, sweetheart?"
"Alyssa," I replied, offering him a warm smile. "Alyssa Summers."
"A real summer treat," he murmured, reaching out to brush a stray lock of hair from my cheek.
I shivered as I felt his touch and I knew right then and there that I needed his cock inside of me no matter what. I could feel my pussy growing wetter and tighter as I imagined the blissful sensations that would wash over me when he filled me. I knew that the pleasure would be immense, unlike anything I had ever experienced before. I took a deep breath, steeling myself for whatever may come next.
"Why don't you give me your number, Alyssa?" Jack suggested casually, reaching out to brush a few strands of hair behind my ear. "We can continue this conversation later tonight."
"Why wait Jack...why don't we just go somewhere private right now and you fuck me like the little slutty bitch that I am." I declared defiantly, grabbing his hand and pulling him closer.
The words tumbled out of my mouth with barely any thought, yet they reflected exactly what I desired. I craved the intimate connection that I had been denied for far too long. I needed to feel the warmth of another body, the passion of a lover, and the raw power of ecstasy. I knew that my decision marked a turning point in my life, one that would forever alter the course of my destiny.
"Well...I...guess that's not a problem." Jack said with a flustered face as he tried to recover his cool demeanor. "Umm... I mean, yeah. Sure, we can go somewhere private. I have a place nearby. Not far from here."
He paid for my purchases as I flashed him a cute and sexy smile, thanking him for his generosity even as I promised to make it up to him and then some. He smiled back at me, his gaze lingering on my huge breasts, clearly entranced by their magnificence. We hurried out of the shop and jumped into his sleek, black sports car. I noticed that his vehicle was immaculately clean and smelled faintly of lavender, a scent that always made me feel calm and relaxed.
As we sped down the highway, I stole glances at Jack, admiring his strong, athletic build and his commanding presence. His gaze caught mine, and he winked, his eyes full of lust and desire. The thrill of being watched intensified my arousal, and I felt my heart pounding as I shifted uncomfortably in my seat, my wet pussy craving the touch of his hard cock. I knew that giving in to my desires would lead to a night of passion that neither of us would forget.
"You sure know how to pick 'em," I murmured, my voice husky with arousal. "Are you sure you can handle me?"
"You know, baby, it's not often that I meet girls like you," he confessed, his eyes gleaming with admiration. "You're beautiful, confident, and incredibly assertive. You've got a fire in you that I haven't seen in a long time."
I giggled softly, feeling an overwhelming urge to touch him. There was something undeniably captivating about him; perhaps it was his confidence, his boldness, or simply the way he held himself. Whatever it was, I knew that he was a force to be reckoned with. As tempted as I was to ask him questions about his background, I felt it was best to allow our chemistry to unfold naturally.
I was grateful for the chance to explore my sexuality without judgment or restriction, and I trusted that our mutual attraction would guide us towards a night of unforgettable passion. Plus, I felt the less we truly knew about each other, the easier it was to treat as a simple hook up with no strings attached. Soon we were pulling up to his home, a nice two story on the edge of town with quite a few trees and empty areas around us giving a quiet secluded feel.
The silence was eerie, yet comforting as I followed him up the stairs and through the door. I noted the rustic charm of the house - exposed wooden beams, vintage furniture, cozy rugs, and colorful artwork. As we entered the living room, I felt a familiar sensation in my pants growing more urgent. I desperately wanted to feel his touch, but I needed to hold out a little longer.
Jack motioned for me to sit on the couch, taking a seat beside me. Looking up at him, I saw the hungry glint in his eyes. I leaned forward, pressing my lips against his. Our tongues intertwined in a delicious dance of passion, fueling the growing inferno between us. Jack pulled me onto his lap, wrapping his arms around my waist, and grinding his pelvis against me.
I moaned softly, feeling his bulge pressing against my most sensitive spots. The friction was exquisite, driving me insane with desire. I could feel my pussy soaking wet, aching for release.
"You're so fucking hot," Jack growled in my ear, nibbling on my lobe. "Your body is perfect. I want to rip those clothes off you, kiss every inch of your skin, and make you scream my name."
I felt my pulse quickening, my breaths becoming ragged as my arousal continued to mount. His words fueled my desire, creating a whirlwind of anticipation that engulfed me. I wanted to lose control, to surrender to the fiery passion that burned within me. And yet, I knew that I needed to take my time, to savor every moment of this intoxicating encounter.
"Well then baby..." I said as I stood up and slowly removed my top, skirt and panties leaving only my garter belt and stockings on. "why don't you show me what you got underneath there too!" I said as I motioned at his own clothing.
Jack gazed at me with a mixture of surprise and appreciation before slowly removing his shirt, revealing a manly and muscular torso. I couldn't help but appreciate the sight of his chiseled abs and defined pecs. I reached out, lightly tracing a finger along his chest before gently cupping him, feeling the firmness beneath his skin.
"You're absolutely beautiful," I whispered, my voice quivering with lust. "Now...take those pants off and show me what kind of prize you have for me!" I demanded, my voice low and seductive.
Jack obliged, swiftly discarding his pants and then boxers as I gasped and stared at the magnificent specimen between his legs. I swallowed hard, unable to tear my gaze away from it. It was larger than I expected, thick and veiny, with a bulbous head that seemed to beg for attention. My pussy throbbed with anticipation, aching for the satisfaction that I knew only he could provide.
"Oh...my...God. That thing is fucking enormous!" I exclaimed, staring at it while imagining the incredible pleasure it would bring me.
I quickly turned around as I leaned over the couch and waggled my ample rear at Jack. My pussy was gushing torrents and I needed him inside of me, foreplay be damned!
"Fuck me Jack! Fuck me now and fuck me hard!" I begged, writhing provocatively as I pushed my firm, curvaceous butt up in the air.
Jack wasted no time, positioning himself behind me. I could feel his hard, throbbing member grazing against my sensitive folds, eliciting a soft cry of longing. I trembled with anticipation, desperate for the moment when he would claim me. I arched my back, presenting my body to him, ready to experience the intense pleasure that only he could provide.
"You're such a naughty girl," Jack murmured, running his hands over my tight, toned body.
"I can't wait to stretch you out and watch you squirm. "I whimpered softly, feeling my pussy clench in anticipation.
My juices flowed freely, slickening my entrance and preparing me for the intense penetration that lay ahead. I spread my legs wider, inviting him to claim me. I wanted to feel his massive cock filling me up, stretching me until I screamed for mercy.
"I'm ready," I breathed, arching my back and presenting my swollen clit and aching slit to him. "Don't stop until I pass out!", I snarled at him in a voice that almost made me faint with desire.
Jack answered my plea as he thrust into me with one fell swoop as my inner folds enveloped his massive cock. My eyes bulged in shock and pleasure as he began to pump in and out of me. I could feel my insides stretching and accommodating the intruder. My pussy gripped him tightly, clinging onto his length as if unwilling to let go.
"Oh God, yes! Oohhh that feels so fuckin' good!" I screamed, my sultry voice hoarse with lust.
Jack grunted with approval, increasing his pace until his balls slapped loudly against my ass. Each thrust sent a wave of pain laced with pleasure through me, causing my entire body to shake uncontrollably. My pussy clamped down on his massive cock, squeezing it mercilessly while also welcoming it deeper inside me. With each stroke, my inner muscles involuntarily contracted and released, massaging his shaft and stimulating my most sensitive nerve endings.
"Oh God, you are so tight and wet," Jack groaned, his grip tightening on my hips. "I don't think I've ever fucked anyone as amazing as you."
"Mmmm," I moaned, feeling his cock hit my deepest spot each time he drove into me. "Oh baby...you're so fuckin' huge! Ohhhh yessss!" I cried out, digging my fingernails into the leather sofa. "Harder, Jack! Faster!"
My pussy convulsed even tighter around his gigantic cock, gripping it like a vice and milking it furiously. The intensity of the pleasure I was experiencing became almost unbearable, threatening to overwhelm me. Yet, despite the mounting pressure within me, I found myself relentlessly demanding more. I needed to feel his cock pulverize my cervix, obliterating me into unconsciousness. I ached for the orgasm that threatened to consume me whole.
My body was alive with the sensations that coursed through me, and I knew that I was moments away from losing control completely. Jack's massive cock filled me, stretching me wide, and I relished the feeling of being impaled upon it.
"Harder, please!" I begged helplessly, feeling my pussy tighten around his cock. "Please, Jack...I need more!"
With a roar, Jack redoubled his efforts, slamming into me with unrestrained ferocity. His cock pistoned in and out of me, battering my tender flesh and driving me over the brink of insanity. My screams echoed around the room, blending with the slap of our bodies as they collided.
"Yes! Yes! I'M CUMMING!" I screamed, clawing at the couch as my body was consumed by an endless series of orgasms.
My pussy convulsed around his massive cock, gripping it like a fist and refusing to let go. Jack's mighty thrusts rattled the entire house, shaking pictures off the wall and sending dust cascading from the ceiling. Suddenly he grunted in a long deep growl as I felt him tense up and unleash a jet of scalding cum into my pussy. It felt so hot and powerful that my entire body convulsed wildly in pleasure.
"Fuck, I can't believe this is happening right now!" I yelled, feeling my pussy clamp down on his spurting cock. "This is so much better than I could have imagined!"
Finally we broke away as I continued to shiver in a post orgasmic haze while my trembling cunt leaked the creamy hot load inside of me down my thighs and onto his hard wood floor.
"Alyssa, you're incredible!," Jack panted as he tried to stay upright. "No one has ever made me lose control like that."
I grinned smugly, basking in the afterglow of our explosive encounter. "Well, I guess that makes me a lucky girl, doesn't it?" I teased, turning around to face him.
I giggled and scooped up the steamy cream pie in my damp little furnace and without even thinking, swallowed it down. My eyes went wide a the delicious taste and the knowledge that I had actually eaten and swallowed a man's cum...and I loved it! I looked at Jack with a devious and naughty grin as I pushed him back onto his sofa and slowly got down on my knees as I quickly moved towards his cock.
He watched me carefully, unsure of what I was planning to do next. However, once he realized he let out a soft chuckle as he watched my gorgeous face move towards his dick. My long and seductive tongue reaching out as it flicked the head of his delicious prick, teasing him as I relished his manly taste. I heard Jack moan softly as he watched me eagerly, anticipating my next move.
I wrapped my plump lips around his massive member, sucking gently as I began to slide him into my eager mouth. My hand slid up and down his hard shaft while my lips kissed and tasted him, savoring every inch of him.
"Oh, Alyssa," Jack moaned, his eyes closed as he surrendered to the heavenly sensation of my talented lips pleasuring him. "You're incredible."
I nodded, my mouth still busy as I suckled him hungrily, looking up briefly as I smiled around his cock and gave him a seductive wink. I went back to sucking him off, making sure to give him everything I had. I wanted to prove to him that I was capable of handling his enormous member, and I wanted to make sure that he enjoyed every second of it.
"Mmm, Alyssa," he moaned, closing his eyes as he savored the sensation of my mouth surrounding his cock. "I can't believe you're only 18....your like a fucking expert!"
I hummed in agreement, tightening my lips around his shaft slightly as I increased the suction. I giggled to myself as I realized that even though I had never done this before, my inner slut or true self was on hell of a cock sucking nympho. The way my mouth slid up and down his giant rod, slurping and sucking all the way down to his balls made me feel so empowered and desirable. I felt Jack begin to rock his hips slightly, guiding me deeper and deeper down his cock.
My newly found feminine pride at my ability to deep throat his monster cock only fueled my desires and ego further as I realized that I wanted to try something else with him. Something that I had always wanted to do with Amy, although I realized that I would be on the receiving end instead. I broke off my erotic fellatio as Jack looked at me with a confused and hopeful look on his face.
"Alyssa? What...what's wrong? Why are you stopping?" he asked me trying to remain cool but the worry on his face evident that I was going to leave him with a severe case of blue balls.
"Oh Jack...don't worry!" I said as I got up and straddled his lap while facing him. "I just wanted to always try something and I think you're just the man he can help me scratch this itch!" I said with a giggle as my massive tits crushed against his manly chest.
I slowly reached down and using the wetness from my pussy, gathered some it to lubricate my tiny and tight asshole. As soon as Jack realized what I was planning a huge smile formed across his lips as he helped me as I took hold of erection and eased myself onto inch by sensual inch. I moaned and tossed my head back as my long brown hair covered my ample hair and tickled my sensitive flesh.
The feeling of his cock invading my virgin ass was nothing short of exhilarating! I had fantasized about anal sex for years, but I had never dreamed I would be the one doing taking it especially as a busty young slut. Now, with Jack's impressive member penetrating me, I knew that I had made the right choice. I felt the stretch and burn of my anal passage, but the discomfort was quickly overwhelmed by the overwhelming pleasure of his thick, pulsating cock filling me up.
I wrapped my arms around Jack's neck as I cried out in ecstasy, riding him faster and harder as I started to pick up the pace. My feminine instincts took over as they guided me to fully embrace my sultry and slutty desires. I reveled in the feeling of Jack's massive cock buried deep within my tight asshole, knowing that my inexperienced rectum was stretching impossibly to accommodate his size. I bounced on top of him, feeling my wet pussy grind against his muscular abdomen.
My pert nipples brushed against his muscled chest, causing goose bumps to appear on my skin. My tight ass cheeks flexed and compressed with each bounce, straining to contain the thick cock lodged inside them. The feeling of being stretched open and filled made my senses swim, as if I were falling into a bottomless abyss of pleasure. The tightness of my anus and the burning sensation caused by his entry made me moan louder, begging for more.
"Ohhhh Jack.....please don't ever stop fucking my asshole, mmmmm!!" I cooed as moved and swiveled my hips to take in as much as I could of him.
I realized finally that I truly had embraced my inner slut and was now Alyssa through and through. Even though there was still a level of apprehension and nervousness I pushed them aside, willing to confront them at a later time. For now, I focused on the task at hand, getting this man or my man to fill me again with his hot cum and to fulfill my purpose an 18 year old teenage cum slut.
I picked up my pace even more as I realized I feel my impending climax and I wanted to make sure that Jack would share his with me too. My body shivered as I giggled like a naughty little whore and imagined his jizz coating my insides once more.
"Jack, ungh, I want you to cum with me baby!" I pleaded, desperation dripping from every word. "Please, I need to feel you erupt inside me!"
His eyes widened in response, and he grabbed my hips, pumping into me faster and harder.
"Alyssa, I'm close," he groaned, his breathing heavy and ragged. "So damn close!"
"Then cum for me," I ordered, squeezing his cock with my tight, hot hole. "Give me all your cum, Jack! Fill me up! CUM FOR MEEEE!!!" I shrieked as I came once more as my asshole tightened and constricted harder around Jack even more.
"Alyssa...OH FUCK....I'm gonna....gonna.....FUCK!!! "Jack shouted as he unleashed his seed into my gaping asshole.
My vision blurred as I shook and screamed out my delicious climax, holding onto Jack for fear my very soul would leave my body at that climactic moment. The sensation I experienced was indescribable, transcending ordinary human understanding. It was almost as if my essence and Jack's merged together to forge a divine union, elevating both of us to new heights of pleasure. I didn't care about anything else at that moment;
I only desired to surrender myself entirely to the all-consuming ecstasy. As I rode out my orgasm, the feelings coursing through me were overwhelming. I had never experienced anything like this before – a sense of euphoria unlike any other. I couldn't get enough of it, and I realized that I was addicted to it and was determined to experience this again and again and again.
"I can't believe it," I murmured softly, panting heavily as I rested my forehead against Jack's sweaty chest. "That was...incredible. Beyond incredible."
"Alyssa," Jack whispered, his voice husky with emotion. "You're...so...so...fucking incredible..." Jack said as he collapsed on the couch before passing out.
My body slowly started to recover and I giggled to myself as I realized that I had reduced this Adonis like stud to a quivering pile of spent man meat. I quietly climbed off of him as I walked to the bathroom in order to clean myself up, removing my garter and stockings. I washed my face and hands before turning on the shower and letting the warm water wash away the day's events.
Slowly I slipped under the stream, the warmth seeping into my pores and relaxing my tense muscles. I allowed my mind to wander as I thought about the future. Sure I was a little embarrassed still I had let my slutty instincts take over me and lead me actually have sex with a man. Yet, I felt very little shame in that fact that I had behaved so wantonly and dressed like a sex crazed 18 year old whore. In fact, I found myself craving it even more and how great it would feel the next time I did it.
After stepping out and quickly drying off, I dressed my self once again in the skimpy outfit Jack had purchased for me earlier along with some of the others I had picked out too. After calling for an Uber and specifying for a woman driver, 'I did not a repeat of these events on my way home' I thought to myself, I "borrowed" a bit of money from Jack's wallet and gave him a quick kiss before heading out the door and into my waiting ride to take me home.
As I sat in the backseat of the car, I thought about the incredible evening I had just shared with Jack. I was surprised at how easily I had slipped into the role of a confident, assertive woman, and it was thrilling to discover a new side of myself. My body was humming with desire already and wanted more, yet I was exhausted and needed to rest. By the time I had arrived home I had nearly fallen asleep in the back of ride and after tipping the driver, I hurriedly made my way inside.
I realized I needed to sate my desires further and tried to plan for next erotic encounters as I stripped down to nothing and was laying on my bed. Unfortunately I had already fallen asleep before I could decide on what to do next. Even as I dreamed of handsome men and their erect cocks, I was unaware that this was just the beginning of an adventure that I could never have anticipated and just how much pleasure it would bring me.
