“I hate it when you are away,” Jacki confesses as she lay on her bed looking at a picture of Craig.
He has been away for four days. All she knows is that he is a part of a classified tactical group that deploys more often than not. This time, she is grateful, he is not in some far-off place. The team is on base in ready status but even so, he is not home.
When they had met, she knew he would be gone a lot. She often asks where and what he does, but rarely receives any description beyond “just working”. He made it sound so mundane. He had three more days on standby before he would be off.
“I do too love,” he shares, “You have been in my head since I left.”
“Oh really?” Jacki teases, “And what exactly am I doing in your head?”
Craig laughs and reminds Jacki, “You know these phones are probably monitored.”
The statement is not needed, and they both know it. Jacki often slips provocative thoughts into phone conversations. She does not really care who else hears it, they are meant for Craig.
“That good?” Jacki asks grinning as she does.
Craig lets out a deep breath and continues, “Let’s just say if you didn’t have plans for the night, I would invite you to base.”
There is a need in Craig's voice, and it makes Jacki ache. She rolls over onto her back and smiles devilishly.
“Actually,” she says matter-of-fact, “Jessica canceled tonight. I have no plans.”
The statement is meant to torment Craig but little more than that. She is surprised by his answer.
“Can you meet me at the base main gate at ten?” Craig responds without hesitation.
Jackie’s smile dissipates. Craig has never asked her to come to the base before. He and his team were housed in a designated barracks while they were on alert and weren’t allowed to leave. She quickly turns over onto her stomach.
“Are you serious?” she asks as her heart skips a beat.
“Very,” Craig says flatly.
“Yes,” Jacki says trying to think, “Um, are you going to get into trouble for leaving your area?”
Craig chuckles and explains, “I am the security team chief. I’ll just tell everyone I need to go to the office for a while.”
Craig ends the phone call by saying, “I have a briefing. I have to go. I love you,” there is a short pause and then he continues with instructions, “Wear a skirt and no panties.”
22:00
Jacki pulls up near the entrance to the base. Her pulse is racing. Yes, she was in love with a military man, but she has never really been on base. Looking at the gate and guards is intimidating.
She pulls into the visitor's parking lot. There are only a few other cars in the expansive lot, and it feels strange. Still hesitant she gets out of her car and begins to walk towards the gate. She swallows hard seeing the four guards standing around. She has a quick vision of being handcuffed for trespassing even though she has not even reached the gate.
The tension she feels disappears when she sees Craig step out from the guard shack. He starts walking towards her and the intimidation she feels continues to fade. She smiles, still walking she takes in Craig. She has always loved him in uniform. It was well-fitted, and it was impossible to miss the physical condition of his body.
“You made it,” Craig says as he smiles and leans in for a kiss.
“You asked,” Jacki said obediently, “and I came.”
“You always do.” Craig smiles insinuating much more than her arrival at the base.
The two turn and head back to the gate. It is not long before Craig has filled out the visitor’s paperwork and they walk to a blue truck with a huge “Security” sign on the side of it.
Jacki’s nerves start to tense again.
“Where are we going?” she asks.
“To the office,” Craig answers as if this was not unusual for the two of them to visit.
“But I didn’t think they let civilians on that part of the base,” Jacki asks as she recalls the stories Craig has shared about people wandering into places they should not be.
Craig takes his eyes off the road for a moment and grins saying, “We are going to another office.”
He continues, “We have an office at the security forces building that we use sometimes. We can go there.”
Jacki shakes her head to say she understands. Up until now, she has been so excited to see Craig, she has not stopped to think about what his intentions were. Yes, they had done plenty of things that bordered exhibition but surely Craig would not do something like that on base. She smiles to herself and her final thought on the subject was, he might.
The drive was short and within minutes they are parking in the security forces parking lot. Jacki felt out of place with the rows of cop cars and other security vehicles.
“Oh gods,” is all she can think.
Seeing her hesitation Craig walks next to her and grabs her hand.
“There are people in there,” he says looking at her, “When we go in just walk by me. If anyone asks, I will just say I was supposed to give you a report earlier and we are going to get it.”
“Will that actually work?” Jacki asks with a look of disbelief on her face.
It seems ridiculous that something so simple and outrageously stupid would work but she is reassured by Craig's confident laugh.
“All these people know is that what I do is classified. They know better than to ask for details,” Craig says winking.
With that, the two walk into the squadron building side by side. To Jacki’s relief, there is no one in the entryway. Craig leads her down several hallways before reaching a door. On the front, there is a placard that says the name of Craig’s unit.
Jacki takes a nervous look up and down the hallway as Craig unlocks the door. With the door open he steps back and uses his hand to welcome her inside.
Despite his warm welcome to the office, his behavior changes as soon as he locks the door. Turning from the door he reaches out to Jacki and pulls her in for a quick kiss. As soon as his lips touch hers, Jacki’s apprehension lessens again.
The short kiss is followed by more. Each kiss is more passionate than the last. His need for her is inescapable and the remaining nervousness about where they are vanishes. As she kisses him, Jacki cannot remember the last time she has seen Craig this filled with need. She has no idea what he will ask of her, but she knows she is more than willing to give whatever it is.
Craig breaks a kiss and pulls away slightly. His breath is already jagged with lust. He looks around the office. It is obvious that he does not spend much time here. She can see in his eyes he is looking for a suitable place to ravage her. The office is not large. There are desks and walkways and that is all there is in the way of space. Jacki leaves the decision of where to him.
Craig grabs Jacki’s hand and pulls her to the opposite side of the room. There is a door that leads to only god knows where. When they are close, he pushes her hard against it. The sound of Jacki’s body against the door makes a noise and she hopes no one will hear it. She does not have time to think about it.
Pressed against the door, Craig once again begins to kiss her. His hands reach out and he begins to explore her. Jacki pulls away from a kiss and moans softly when she feels his left-hand dip beneath her blouse and cup her breast. She leans in to kiss him but is forced to take a sharp breath when she feels his fingers tweak her nipple.
