Foreign Territory

Friday Night at Josies....It was packed as usual....Lt. Edward Cantrell sat at the bar by himself as usual nursing one of three drinks...Talking to no one in particular...Mostly people watching...

He mostly watched the couples....And he saw a few that he knew....

Most prominently was the city's dashing Assistant District Attorney, Keith Wallace and his pretty little Puerto Rican bride, Detective Carlotta Rodriguez...They looked very happy together, dancing, drinking, kissing like two teenagers...

Then there was Detective James "Jimmy" Barlow and Detective Angie Belton...He never could understand this couple...He never thought Detective Belton...a Detective he himself had trained and thought he knew would ever go for a white boy...and a white boy that was two or three years younger than her at that....Stranger things had happened he mused as he watched them together...

Then there was Detectives Tyriq and Sirena Pile...two more of his prize students...He smiled when he remembered he had to make them work together....They couldn't stand each other or at least that's they way they pretended to the world ....Once together, they became inseperable...Wound up getting engaged......She wound up pregnant with twins and they got married and have since had another child...Now they're working in the same unit...

And Duke....another prize pupil of his...Smooth ass Duke...Women fainted when Detective Edward "Duke" Baylor entered a room....He was smooth, a ladies man....And then, he fell head over heels for quiet , Dr. Hazel Hunter, a forensics investigator....Married her within months of meeting her...

Then there was Lt. Sissy Van Buren....

He had wanted Sissy something terrible for years....She had been married and divorced, then he had been in a relationship with someone else...Now she was in a relationship with someone... An ex-con...Imagine that? A highly decorated Officer of the Philadelphia Police Department dating a jailbird... At least he had on a suit tonight...He watched them all....Eventually they all left, destinations ,more than likely the bedrooms of their homes where they would all screw themselves senseless...

He was destined to go home alone tonight!  Or Was He?

II-

"Hello Stranger" came the voice...

Lt. Cantrell turned around to see DEA Agent, Carol Redding.....

"Oh My God girllll...How long has it been?" he said.

"Too Long Lt. Cantrell." she said.

"You don't have to call me that...We are off duty and besides, you're not one of my detectives anymore.." he said.

She smiled... He had trained her from a patrolman to Detective...She had put on Sgt stripes under him...Around the same time as his other prize student, Sissy Van Buren...Then she had got an opportunity to go to D.C. and become a federal agent...She jumped on it and now was a special agent of The Drug Enforcement Agency.

"I'm so proud of you...A Federali now eh? Love it...." he said.

"I am all I am because of you Ed.. You taught me everything I know about doing investigations." she said.

He smiled...He blushed kind of...

"You just missed some old friends of yours..." he said.

"Yeahhh, how is everybody...I haven't seen a lot of people in years...How is Sissy,Duke, Rico and Angie?" she asked.

"Sissy is the Lieutenant of Homicide, Special Victims Unit and Major Crimes now." said Ed Cantrell with pride.

''WOW!  I'm not surprised...That was your girl...She was your favorite...I knew she was going far..  How about Duke, Rico,Angie?" she asked.

"Duke and Rico are in her unit....Rico and Sirena are married and have three children and Duke got married a couple of weeks ago to a forensic investigator in their unit..Sirena is in the same unit with them....She's partnered with a rookie Detective." he said.

"Nice...Sissy has all of her people with her." she said... "Before I left...I met two new detectives...One was a Puerto Rican girl, her name was Carlotta Rodriguez...She was real sharp....She was Tyriq's partner when he was in Robbery Homicide and the other was a young white guy, Jimmy something or other....He worked with me in Narcotics. Real Street smart....damn good investigator too..I worked with both of them on cases.."she said.

"They're case hardened detectives now... both of em are also in Sissy's unit...Carlotta is married to ADA Keith Wallace... and Jimmy Barlow is dating your girl, Angie Belton!" he said.

"WHATTTTTTTTTTTTT??  Jimmy and Angie?? How did their paths cross?She's older than him!!!!" she said.

"And he's white...but they are as thick as thieves.. She loves him...and he's just gaga over her." said Ed Cantrell...

''Oh My God....Angie is with Sissy too?" she asked.

"No..She's in Internal Affairs...Doing good work, but you know she and Sissy are like sisters....They still hang out..." he said.

''Wow..Carlotta and Keith Wallace, married. A lot of women liked Keith Wallace...Always thought he'd marry another lawyer or something....Never figured he'd marry a detective. Carlotta got him eh?  Always said that girl was sharp! She knew what she wanted and she went for it... Go on girl! I like that!!" she laughed.

"Before I leave town...I've got to get over to Homicide and see all of my old friends.." she said.

"What you drinkin sugar?" he said...

"Rum and Coke" she said.

"But of course" he said.

"Did you and Sissy ever hook up? You had it bad for her..."she asked.

"Nahh, she has a boyfriend... Timing was never right...When she didn't, I was involved with someone...Barbara Dennison."he sighed.

"Awwwww poor baby....Shame about Barbara...She was a great detective once...Now she's on death row for what? Four murders?" she said.

"Yeah....I know how to pick em" said Ed

''No doubt." laughed Carol

"How about you? You seein anybody?" he asked.

"I was married for a minute.....Didn't work out...My divorce was final about six months ago...I'm married to my work now.." she said.

"That doesn't sound like fun." he said with a smile...

"And you would know all about fun." she laughed...

III-

Some hours later...They both wound up in Agent Redding's hotel room, kissing and moaning....

"Ohhhhhh baby..." he moaned..

"Ohhhhhh Ed." she moaned...

He had her dress off and her bra unhooked in mere minutes and she had his pants and his boxers down in almost the same time...

She marveled at his huge penis....He meanwhile slipped her panty hose and shoes off and grinded her into the wall, kissing her and practically slobbering over her breasts...

"HEYYYYYYYYYYY WHAT THE HELL IS GOIN ON OVER THERE?? QUIET THE NOISE...I'M TRYIN TO GET SOME SLEEP" screamed the man in the next room.  They ignored him...

She backed him over to her bed and the both fell on the bed, kissing and fondling each other...

He rolled over on top of her...

"Are you sure you're all right with this?" he asked...

"Yes....We are both adults....I'm as horny as a cat...." she moaned...

"Well alrightt.." he said...

He softyly parted her legs and entered her as slow as he could....He had wondered what sex would be like with her...many years before...but had never made a move or tried anything...

She moaned softly as the massive bed began to squeak and slam against the wall...
''Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...""Ohhh baby, give it to meeeeee....ummmmmmph..."

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.... Carol...Carol......ouuuuuuuuuu, more, more... ohhhhhh..."

"Sock it to me Eddie...ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..."she moaned.

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh gooooddddddd lawdd it's soooo goood...ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh I've missed you girl...ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh sweeeeet jesusssssssssss you are a demon in the bedddddddddd...arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.."he cried ...out!!"Morrre...Morreee....morrre...ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..

"Edward..ouuuuuu..Edward....OHHHHHHH. EDWARD!"she wailed...

"KNOCK IT OFF!! I'M TRYIN TO SLEEP...I'M CALLIN THE MANAGER!" came the voice of the next door neighbor again!

"Ohhhh Carol, this is sooo damn goooood,ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..I'm losin my minddddddddd!! "

"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...I needed this soooooooooooooo mucccchhhhhh! " she moaned...

They made sweet yet intense love for five hours...with no sign of stopping...The bed squeaked something crazy....

The lights in the room below them were going on and off....The man in the room next to them was banging on the wall...

"HEYYYYYYYYYYYY...QUIET THE NOISE...I'm tryin to sleep!"

''Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...""Ohhh baby, give it to meeeeee....ummmmmmph..."

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.... Carol...Carol......ouuuuuuuuuu, more, more... ohhhhhh..."he moaned....

"Sock it to me Eddie...ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..."she moaned.

"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!" he yelled and
came violently!!!

It wasn't long before Carol came also ...in waves and held on to Ed Cantrell for life, biting him!
IV-

Ed Cantrell slept like a baby....He hadn't slept this peaceful in close to two years....He awoke and saw DEA Agent Carol Redding walking towards him.....She had on her nightgown now and two tumblers of coffee...She sat on the side of the bed and passed him one...

"Wow! Is all I can say.....I was always curious about you in bed.... You're everything you said you were and more...whoooooo...I think I came multiple times last night." she said smiling...

He smiled....He secretly wished that that was Lt. Sissy Van Buren saying that, but Carol would do...He had several attractive detectives in his unit back then...Sissy, Barbara Dennison, Angie Belton and Carol...

Barbara Dennison had been his lover....Hard to believe she was now sitting on Death Row, for the triple murder of an ADA, his wife and a lawyer....and the murder of a gangster.

Angie Belton,the youngest of the above named women had slipped under his radar...

Sissy? The timing had been all wrong.. All the time....and Carol....He had looked at her..Hell ,he looked at all of the attractive women, but had never made a move or thought about her....Apparently she had thought about him...and now, they were past that hurdle!

''What are you doing in town anyway?" he asked.

"I'm on an assignment...An agent and a witness in a case went missing...we think they may have come here." she said.

''Why here?" he asked.

''Long story....I- I can't talk about it." she said.

"I understand...So then I suppose it's back to D.C. huh?" he asked..

"Yeah....D.C. isn't that far....Here is my card....That's my cell phone number and here is my address...Come visit me...if---if uh you want to." she said.

"I would like that." he said.

"I'd like it too...My God...after what you did to me  tonight...I think I could get hooked on you." she said laughing..

"Hey ,you wasn't bad yourself...I aint moaned that much in years." he said.

"Sissy didn't make you moan?" she asked.

"We never went there......I tried....I still try...but she aint with it...She's got a man." he said.

"She doesn't know what she's missing." said Carol.

"I think she does...but you know Sissy...She's by the book...She lives by a code." he said frowning.

"That's a good thing...Sissy always had integrity, high morals...I always liked her..."said Carol.

"I like you." he said.

''You do now!" She said and smiled.

He put his cup of coffee down and leaned over and kissed her...long and hard....After awhile she pulled him to her and returned his passion....

They lie across the bed....He slipped her panties down and crawled up on her and entered her again, slowly....

"OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH my goodness EDDDDDDDDD!"
she moaned as he began slowly thrusting inside of her once again...

"MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM lawddddd girl, this is gooodd." he moaned...

"You like it daddy?" she cooed...

''I love it baby..ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh good lawdd gurlllll."he moaned.

The bed began to squeak loudly and softly slam into the wall of the room...

"OHHH FOR THE LOVE OF PETE, WILL YOU TWO GO TO SLEEP?? SO I CAN
GO TO SLEEP! GEEEEEEZ!" came the voice of the man next door.

Ed Cantrell entered Carol  softly and gently and began to stroke her softly and slowly....She moaned and put her arms around his neck and drew him closer to her..Carol  wrapped her legs around his waste and they began to move in a slow, yet deliberate rhythm for quite some time...She matched him  thrust for thrust and even bit his shoulder at one point...She was so soft...so moist and smelled so good...he was losing his mind slowly....while continuing to stroke her masterfully....

 They made sweet passionate and intense love for close to three hours... She felt as though she was climaxing several times....then in a huge wave....Ed Cantrell climaxed furiously and hard....not yelling , but shaking mightily.....then taking a deep breath and collapsing on top of Carol....drenched in sweat....She looked up at him and gave him a juicy and wet kiss....Ed Cantrell surprisingly felt himself getting hard again...and began to move slowly inside and out of her....

 Carol began to shake and gyrate and tears began to stream down her face....Ed had never seen a woman cry during sex before...She stared up at him in seeming disbelief that he was still going strong...

"OHHHHHH Gooood LORD ED....OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH MY GOODNESS....OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!" she yelled....

The next door neighbor banged on the wall-

"You two at it again? Quiet the NOISE!!!"

They ignored him as they both came together furiously....

Carol was out of breath-

''Whewwwww, Ed...I didn't know you had that much energy! It must have been a long while for you,huh?" she said.

"You're a good detective....It's been about six months..." he said, trying to catch his breath and lying next to her on his stomach....

"Wowwwwwwwww..been about that long for me too.....whoooeeee...but this was definitely worth it...I soooo needed this....."

"Glad I could uh be of service.." he said...

"When do you have to be back?" he asked.

 "In a week?" she said.

"Well hell, I aint got nothin to do...and I don't feel like being alone for Christmas....Why don't we drive to AC...get us a room and spend Christmas together...You and me...My treat...?? " he said.

"YEAH, BOTH OF YOU, LEAVE TONIGHT SO I CAN GET SOME SLEEP!" yelled the man in the room next door. Both Ed and Carol ignored him.

"I- don't know....This seems kind of weird...I don't like walking into foreign territory...I mean you and Sissy.." she said.

"There is no me and Sissy...She's going to be spending Christmas with her man and her dad and his girlfriend and their new baby....

Then from what she told me..They are all having dinner at the new home of Carlotta and Keith Wallace..All of em...Duke and his wife, Hazel, Tyriq and his wife Sirena, Angie and Jimmy, Detective Hopkins and that FBI agent he married...Sharon Ferrell.

  and Carlotta's family from Puerto Rico, Her father, Her sister, her cousins...That's gonna be a crowded affair...." he said ruefully.

"Sharon Ferrell...Married? Wow..No wonder she moved back to Philly...and she's all in at Sissy's unit...Looks like C.I.D. is the place to be." laughed Carol..."I sure would like to see all of them...I worked a case with Sharon Ferrell...She's very sharp, very good investigator..." said Carol...

"Her last name is Hopkins now...She's married to one of Sissy's detectives..." said Ed Cantrell..

''You know the whole layout huh?" laughed Carol...

"I trained Sissy,Angie,Duke, Tyriq and Sirena didn't I? And even though I didn;t really know them ,Carlotta and Jimmy were patrolmen over in my unit....When they became detectives...They were trained by Duke and Tyriq...So my stamp is on all of em in that unit...They're good...Crackin major cases...bringing down some pretty heavy hitters...I'm proud of em all.." he said.

"But you're disappointed that Sissy won't give you no trim huh?" she said and laughed.

''Aww come on baby. Trim?  That's real old school." he said laughing.

"I'm an old school kinda gal" she said laughing...

He laughed too...He hadn't laughed like this with a woman in a long time...

"STOP THE LAUGHING AND TALKING...GO TO SLEEP..I'M TIRED" came the voice of the man next door.

Ed Cantrell looked in the direction of the voice and turned back to Carol, both of them ignoring it.

"Look Ed...I'll go to AC with you....but there are no strings attached....I'm a big girl...I don't delude myself.. You make one last play for Sissy...If it doesn't work...Then you call me...Maybe  you can come down to D.C. a couple of weekends and we can make a go of something..." she said.

He smiled...

"That sounds fair enough...." he said.

She took a sip of her coffee...

"That's got to be cold by now." he said.

''You're a cop Eddie....You've never drank cold coffee?" she said and laughed..

He had drank cold coffee many a day and night on stake outs...He knew all too well..

He stared at Carol...Her nice smooth dark skin....her great body...her nice shapely legs...She had given him an early Christmas gift....She had assured him that he wouldn't spend this Christmas alone, drunk, pining for a woman who was in the arms of another man....He leaned over and kissed her again...

"My goodness Ed....you want to go again?" she asked....

"No..Nah...I'm tired...I just wanted to kiss you again.. that's all." he said.

"WELL THANK GOD FOR THAT!" came the voice of the man next door.

Carol laughed, finally acknowledging the voice from beyond the wall...She leaned over and kissed Ed again...

How fortunate he felt!
