WOW! What are the odds Cindy and I would be stuck in the same airport, at the same time, and pick the same restaurant for a meal? Holy shit, this is great! I stood and started to step around the potted plant next to the pillar just as my wife leaned across her booth seat to kiss Steven on the lips.
I froze. My brain froze, it simply could not compute what my eyes had just witnessed. I blinked trying to refocus on the scene in front of me. The couple ended their kiss as Cindy used a delicate finger to stoke his face as they broke apart.
Steven had his left arm across the back of the low booth. He slipped that arm around her shoulders and pulled her in for another kiss. I watched as she scooted closer to him while they kissed. The kiss ended and he whispered something in her ear causing her to laugh again.
I pulled back to be hidden by the pillar and sat down in my seat stunned by what I’d seen. I was about to get up and storm over to them when the PA system announced the ground crews had successfully cleared the runway and everyone should recheck previously canceled flights.
Checking my phone, I saw my flight was now scheduled to board in 50 minutes. Then my phone vibrated with an incoming call from Cindy. I leaned around the pillar to see her holding the phone to her ear and letting Steven listen in to her call.
“Yes!” I snapped.
“Hi Mike, bad news, we’re snowed in and all outgoing flights are canceled. We’ve decided to just grab a room and spend the night.
“Oh? That’s awful! Where are you guys?”
“Denver, we’re caught in a snowstorm and the ground crews are overwhelmed. I hope they have it sorted out by morning.”
I stepped a little farther around the pillar and potted plant. I could clearly see the smiles on their faces. It appeared Steven had a hand at least partway up her skirt.
“Well, I guess you better get a room before the management throws you out.”
“Yeah, I think the hotels will all fill … What did you say?”
“I said, your public display has not gone unnoticed and management may ask you two to leave.”
She sat up straight and quickly looked around, but didn’t see me. “What, what, are you talking about? What display?”
“Well, If Steven gets his hand any farther up your skirt, you guys might get thrown out!”
Steven jerked his hand up and slid away from Cindy as he looked around. She twisted in her seat and looked up at the ceiling. I guessed she was looking for cameras.
“Michael! What the hell are you saying?”
As I stepped toward them I scooped up a pitcher of water from a table. I stepped up to the side of their booth and dumped the water on both of them.
“There! That may cool you two off enough to avoid any additional public displays!”
Steven sputtered as the water soaked his shirt and pants. Cindy screamed as the cold water ran down her partially open blouse and soaked her skirt.
“Michael! What are you doing here?”
“What am I doing here? You mean besides finding out my wife is having an affair with her boss?”
Steven found his tongue, “Michael it is not how it may look, I can assure you.”
