Pronunciation: Stall-a-moor

Sentence: Jackie had gone to a lot of effort, made dinner, set the table with candles and ensured her housemate was elsewhere for the evening. The final touches added to her hair and a spritz of perfume, then, her heart racing, she answered the doorbell.. His collogne was intoxicating and the smile enticing, a single rose in his hand. Dinner went well and the wine was flowing as fast as her pulse, his hand holding hers, when a sound startled them. A key in the front door, her flatmate home. What the hell? He withdrew and got shy, started clearing the dishes. Katie all smiles tut-tutted and loitered, her stupid flatmate playing stallamour again!

Etymology: Stall - to come to a halt, falter, or delay. Amour - hormone flushed embraces and love
