These are the grounds. Immaculately kept, still very much like they were when The Place was first built. It was a fortification, obviously, as you can see from the high walls and the complicated access path. Lots of places to, um, shoot arrows. From."<br/>They strolled across the lawn and Cooper extemporized as fast as he could. He noted every feature of the grounds and buildings, taking his best guess as to their original function based on what little he still remembered from his military history classes, and spun what he hoped was a believable yarn about The Place's past - about which he knew exactly bupkes. After all, it wasn't like anybody had presented him with an employee handbook.<br/>A number of wrought iron pergolas stood around a large granite bird bath, and Cooper took advantage of the symphony of song from the birds gathered there to stop nattering. This was getting ridiculous, he reflected. He had no idea what he was talking about, and it wouldn't be long before Sarah couldn't fail to notice. If she hadn't already.<br/>It had occurred to him at some point that what Mel had actually been saying was "invite her up to your room, fool". Even if he had realized what she meant at the time, he knew it would have been just too weird to make that offer to a girl he had just met. But maybe he had found a plausible segues here - from where they stood, the small patio outside his room was visible. As they had chatted, he had definitely warmed to the girl. And having had the chance to surreptitiously observe her luscious form from every angle as they paused to sniff flowers, he was surely eager to see more of her.<br/>"You know, Sarah," he said as offhandedly as he could manage, "That's my room up there overlooking the grounds. It's got a great view. Care to stop up?"<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Sarah lifted a quizzical brow when he escorted her back outside, was her room located somewhere else on the property?  Was his?  Or did he just have a kink for having sex outdoors?  All these thoughts entered her mind.  If she was honest she wasn’t sure what to expect when she arrived, just being here was a big step for her.  Heck, she was a total wild child just contemplating having sex with a stranger, paid or not, never mind following through with it.<br/><br/>If she hadn’t been in such a rut, and her friend hadn’t told her all about her stay a couple of months back she doubted she’d be here at all, hell if her friend hadn’t stood over her while she made the reservation she knew she definitely wouldn’t be here.    ‘Go for a week and try out something new and kinky, they are very discreet and it wont be in the paper the next day.’ Had been the exact words her friend had used as encouragement.    Having sex outdoors could be considered kinky couldn’t it?<br/><br/>She was barely paying attention as he led her around the gardens, pointing things out and telling her silly little stories about the place, her mind too busy churning over the fact that she was here and she was going to have sex with him.   Absently she trailed her fingers over the various blooms in passing, every so often the fragrance of one catching her attention which made her stop.<br/><br/>She was brought crashing back to reality when he said her name and asked here a question.  “Huh?” what had he just asked?  She felt the blush of embarrassment creep up her neck and face “That’s sounds nice.” She answered hoping it was the correct answer.<br/>
