Have Faith

Faith’s eyes popped open when male laughter rumbled up from downstairs and woke her. Searching for Bill, she rolled over and found the bed empty. The blanket and sheet seemed to have fallen off. A chill shivered through her, as she turned on the bedside lamp.
‘Bill,’ she hissed, thinking maybe he was in the bathroom, and then realized the laughter from sounded like his.
‘Where are the sheets?’ she wondered, kneeling on a bare mattress. ‘How could they be stripped off without waking me up?’
A man began talking — low and indistinguishable. He seemed to go on at length about some incoherent topic until she heard her name spoken, ‘Faith is…’ followed by more unintelligible words.
Her heart pounding, she wondered, ‘Who could Bill be talking to?’ and searched on the floor and under the bed for her flannel nightshirt. Giving up, she tiptoed to the closet for a robe, only to discover it was empty. Not even hangers were on the metal rods.
Anxious about her nudity, she hurried to the dresser, yanked open the drawers and found them all empty. Panic reached an almost uncontrollable level, when she looked at the half open bedroom door. On the inside knob hung a familiar white negligee, it had been a gift from her husband for their first anniversary.
‘Wear this at your own risk,’ he’d warned. The filmy lace was practically transparent in normal light, and had always been Lou’s favorite come-and-get-me tease.
A little better than nothing, she cloaked herself in the mid-thigh gossamer and crept to the top of the stairs to listen, forgetting about the loose board on the landing. All conversation stopped when the squeaky wood tattled under her weight.
A familiar voice said, ‘Faith, are you awake?’
Afraid to be seen and fearful of what she might see, Faith turned to dart into the bedroom and bolt the door, only to find it already locked. Running frantically down the hall, she pushed on all four doors and every one was locked. Confusion and disbelief weakened her legs. Stumbling backward for a supporting wall, Faith bumped a family portrait, sending it crashing on the floor.
‘Don’t be afraid, Faith. It’s just me and Bill down here.’ After a short silence, he continued, ‘Don’t you want to see me again, after all these years, Sugar?’
Worried about her sanity, she thought, ‘How could it be Lou? Lou’s dead.’
‘I’ve come back one more time to see you, Faith,’ the disembodied voice answered.
Timidly clutching the wispy garment closed, Faith stepped down the stairs just far enough to bend at the waist for a quick peek. Standing next to the couch was her husband, Lou, looking young and strong in a green polo shirt and tan pants.
‘See, Sugar,’ his voice said, ‘It’s me. And Bill’s here too.’
Bending a little farther, Bill’s white socks and navy sweatpants appeared, standing in front of the chair directly across.
Lou turned in Bill’s direction, and said, ‘She’s embarrassed. Can you believe it?’ Shaking his head, he added, ‘God I’ve missed her so much.’
Backing away, Faith tried to yell, ‘I’m not decent,’ but no noise would come from her mouth.
‘Faith, I know you’re wearing my anniversary gift. I put it there on the door. Let me see you in it one more time. Please, Sugar?’ Then as an afterthought, he added, ‘I know you’ve slept with Bill. I’m cool with that. Hey, I’ve been gone for over six years. And I know you can’t live your life on a memory.’ There was a brief pause, and then, ‘Bill and I have been talking about you. And, from what he tells me, you’ve got him hooked pretty deep, Sugar. He won’t admit it, but I know he’ll worship you from now on, just like I did.’
Heart pounding in her ears, she tentatively moved down the stairs, shyly hugging herself while staring at her bare feet. The silly thought, ‘I wish my toenails were polished. Lou loved red toenails,’ flashed through her mind.
‘I loved your body any way I could get it, Sugar. You know that,’ Lou said in answer.
Shocked that even her thoughts were not private, she felt totally exposed and a heat began rising in her face. A furtive glance into the room, as she descended clumsily, revealed Lou’s beaming face, a soundless fire, and Bill, standing with his back turned, staring into the dancing flames.
Compassion for Bill pained her, knowing how awkward he must be feeling. She wanted to apologize for adding more stress to his already confused life.
Lou followed her thoughts and looked at Holder. ‘From what I’m hearing, Sugar, I think you’ve got it bad for him too.’ Turning back to face her again, he added in a tone of sadness that pulled at her heart, ‘Bill is here for you… the way I wish I could be.’
From the bottom step, Faith rushed into Lou’s open arms, and felt his nearly forgotten love close around her. Nestling against his chest, memories flooded her mind. Warm and pleasant shared times. Moments that should have been repeated for a lifetime were gone in one muzzle flash. Tears dripped from her cheeks.
Lou stroked her hair, and said, ‘You’re so amazing, Sugar. We had some great times, didn’t we?’
She nodded into his chest, inhaling deeply, trying to remember what he smelled like but couldn’t, which brought more tears.
Lou scooped her up and sat on the couch.
Faith, unable to relax, continued to hug her chest with eyes shut tight, and pressed a damp cheek into his shirt, legs stretched out across the cushions.
‘I’m proud of our kids, Faith. I wish I could tell them. They’ve turned out to be good people, thanks to you.’ Then kissing her hair, he said, ‘And I’m so very proud of you.’
Sobs wracked her body, as she wrapped her arms around and squeezed him tight. Gentle hands stroked her hair and he kissed her face until she was drained of emotion.
‘Shhh, everything will be all right,’ he whispered. ‘Bill’s gonna take good care of you.’
Comforting warmth washed over her and she calmed into a serene stillness.
Loudly, Lou asked, ‘You’re gonna take good care of our girl, right Bill?’
Another flood of tenderness enveloped her as she basked in their combined protection.
‘Bill, stop bein’ a statue and sit down here with us,’ Lou commanded. ‘Faith move your feet so Bill has room.’
Once again, Faith tensed. Keeping her eyes shut tight, she curled her legs and felt the cushions sag under the added weight.
‘Holder, rub her feet. Her body’s as tight as an oak knot.’
Warm hands lifted her unresisting ankles and placed them on firm thighs. Knowing fingers worked pleasantly on her soles and she floated with the pleasure.
‘Holder.’ Lou said the name like he was trying it out. ‘That’s a good name, Faith,’ his fingers lightly massaged her shoulders. ‘If you married him, you’d be Faith Holder. Now that’s a very cool name. It sounds… spiritual.’
The comment forced a smile to her lips.
‘That’s better, Sugar. You’re beautiful when you smile. Isn’t she, Holder?’
Apparently, Bill’s voice was absent as well, and she had to force her eyes open to see his reaction. When their eyes met, the smoldering passion in his gaze was overwhelming. Her heart beat wildly and she pressed her eyes shut against a new rush of affection.
‘You’re just as beautiful as the day we met, Faith,’ said Lou, as she felt his hand slip into the opening of the translucent fabric covering her breasts.
When she turned her body into his chest to prevent embarrassment, he whispered, ‘Sugar, let me have a peek. It’s been too long.’ And then, ‘Bill look away. Give us a moment.’
Cracking open an eyelid, Faith saw Bill’s head turned toward the stairs and she relaxed against the arm of the couch. Lou untied the bows and then parted the fabric to expose her flesh. She shyly closed her eyes tight, once again.
Loving palms cradled her breasts, while thumbs and index fingers toyed with the nipples, ‘She’s a fantast
ic lover, isn’t she Holder?’ Lou asked, in a tone thick with wanting.
There was no verbal response, but the man under her feet shifted, and she knew Bill was looking at her. Nervously, she waited for a hint of what was next, part of her excited and part of her appalled by this taboo behavior.
After an interminable wait, Bill’s gentle hands began ascending her legs as Lou’s hands slipped down her stomach. The soft fabric sheath tickled, as it fell to her sides, opening her body to full view. Faith pressed her face into her husband’s side, trying to hide from the thrill she felt from the caress of the two men she loved.
‘Love?’ she wondered at the thought, ‘Do I love Bill?’
‘I think you do, Faith. It may be just the beginning, but it’s there. I can tell by how you act around him,’ Lou said, persuasively.
‘Yeah, she does have nice legs, doesn’t she,’ Lou said, apparently in response to one of Bill’s thoughts and then to her, added, ‘I’m sorry about the scar, Sugar. But someone’s gonna burn in hell a long time for that. Believe me.’
Bill’s hand slid over the scar… at least she thought it was Bill’s. She began to lose track of which hands belonged to which man, as the pleasurable sensations grew into an indiscernible bliss. Someone’s fingers firmly gripped her ankles and forced her heels flat on the cushions, pushing them toward her bottom. Unresisting, she let her knees bend up and spread open, revealing her sex. Faith pressed her face harder into Lou’s shirt, as the increasing contradiction of shame and desire heated her body.
‘There’s my pleasant valley sunshine,’ Lou quipped.
Faith grinned at the remembered allusion to her moist, pink nether lips. A shudder was triggered as someone’s fingers began exploring between her open legs. Progressively, charming touches were everywhere and she lost all reticence, but still kept her face buried with eyes closed. Manly fingers toyed and pleasured her in ways both familiar and imaginatively new.
‘Faith?’ she heard Bill say, in the distance. Then loud and urgent, ‘Faith… FAITH!’
Bolting upright, in the black coolness of the bedroom, she felt Bill tossing under the covers beside her, his foot kicking her.
Cradling her hot face, she discovered, ‘It was all a dream,’ and rocked back and forth while her confusion and frustration diminished.
Bill’s nocturnal anxiety became increasingly physical, struggling harder against some nightmarish vision.
Wanting to soothe him and sate her own need for loving contact, Faith lay down and rubbed his back, whispering close to his ear, ‘I’m here, Sweetie.’
With surprising swiftness, he turned and wrapped her in his arms, quieting down while pressing against her, seeming to want her as close as she wanted him.
The heat of dreamed passion still burning through her, Faith played with his hair, rubbed his back and pressed her pelvis to him, needing completion. Deciding the dream was a fundamental clue, and that she really did feel a growing love for this near stranger, Faith found his mouth and pressed hers to it passionately, dropping a hand to squeeze his bottom.
Bill’s lips came alive when he woke to this tempting reality. His response increased with his alertness.
The dream may only have been an emotional transference from the past to the future, but Faith decided to test what her heart implied by using her body. Relaxing her muscles, she fell back onto the bed.
Without coaxing, Bill rolled on top. The power of attraction seemed to propel him, and she wondered what he had seen in his dream.
He toyed with her body, until, driven by carnal desire, she returned the pleasure.
Animalistic want and groping hands guided and prodded to a quick and needful insertion. The joining of their flesh became a mutual act of aggressive lust that ended with screams of satisfaction.
Afterwards, crying into Bill’s shoulder, she heard him whisper, ‘Faith, I love you.’

Introduction: Charity meets a new friend We sat in church listening to a sermon on the bonds of family, both Momma and I wearing sunglasses and feeling rather ragged. We were both suffering hangovers, but the nature of our hangovers were very much different. Whilst Mommas head was pounding after along hard night of drinking, my body was aching from a long hard night of being pounded. Sitting in the pew I couldnt believe I was no longer a virgin!

Sitting in the pew I couldn’t believe I was no longer a virgin! The last 24 hours had been very intense and I felt as if they were happening to someone else. I had always planned on saving myself for marriage, but I admitted to myself I loved what had happened and I wanted more and more sex. It was hardly this secret ritual between married couples that the church had taught me.. It was hot , raw sex, oure fucking and I wanted to do it again. But not today, I was way too sore from last...
Buffy's lungs were burning from exertion. She'd never run so hard and fast in her life. Even when it felt like her legs were going to buckle, the pain shooting up her shins, somehow they kept pounding the tarmac of their own volition. All she could see was Faith's hair like a dark cape whipping behind her as she ran. God knows how far they'd gone but the totalled squad car was far behind them and they were sprinting into an unfamiliar part of town. Faith seemed to know where she was going...

The Tuscan sun was quietly burning off the last wisps of grey morning mist from around the rising cypress spires in the near distance as two cars arrived at the villa, grinding the gravel under their wheels like strong waves breaking on shingle. My mother lifted the palms of her hands towards my face and allowed them to brush the outline of my veil, as though anything more than the lightest touch would cause it to disperse into fine white powder and drift away into eternity. She stood back a...

Have you ever been so attracted to a woman you'd do almost anything to have her? I honestly don't know if women ever feel that instinctive, physical need for sex the way men do but, at the very least, I believe ladies will understand what I mean. Mind you, I'm not talking about that caveman, 'beat her on the head and drag her home’ cliche. That brutally simplistic image is far too crass and no man worth a woman's affection would seriously ponder the idea. No, I’m speaking about a twisting,...
MILFBill Holder tried to sleepwalk through life, after Jennifer divorced him. But his wakeup call came from the police. They politely informed him that his 14-year-old daughter, Lisa, had been arrested for shoplifting. Ashamed that he had neglected her, Bill became a dedicated father. Now twenty-two, Lisa was a senior at Boston College, on her way to becoming a physicist, (whatever that is). She said there was good money in it — music to his ears. Jokingly, Bill asked if that meant she could fill...

I didn't know many of my cousins on my Dad's side of the family. It was late September and the school year was over and Mom told me that some relatives were coming for a visit next week. She said my Aunt Jody and her daughter Faith would be spending a week with us, I had never met them before and knew nothing about them. The day they arrived I was busy doing my usual thing in my room, looking at girly magazines and enjoying the pleasures of stroking my cock. I was unaware that they had arrived...

She hadn’t really been sure what to expect when a few friends from work had asked her to come out and join them for drinks, there was quite the age gap after all, between her and the teaching assistants who had been so insistent she comes out. Part of her had thought it would just be them for the evening, sat around a table chatting and gossiping about work stuff, which, to be fair, they had done for the first hour or so. Then the music had been pumped up, the lights dimmed and the girls...

"Hey B, sorry I'm late." I walked inside and hung up my coat. "Here, I got ya some presents..." I handed her the three wrapped parcels. "Thanks Faith, yours is under the tree.

Afraid to touch her, Bill slumped in the chair beside Faith’s bed for nearly an hour. She looked fragile — face swollen, wearing an oxygen mask, and lying so still he had to watch closely to see her chest rise and fall. Doctor Grady explained that her physical injuries, although initially disfiguring, were actually minor and in a few weeks would fade away. The smoke seemed to have irritated only her upper respiratory system. The arterial blood gas analysis was negative. A chest x-ray was...
The other side of the bed was empty when Bill awoke. The clock showed 7:30. He lay on his back and thought about how nice it had been to sleep with Faith — tangled up like puppies. But now came the morning after awkwardness. How a woman behaved the day after was always a mystery to him. Some were clingy, some cold, but the hardest to deal with were the gracious ones. After the divorce, Bill had used his share of women and regretted some of it now, realizing he was punishing them for his...

MatureAt the time me and Faith were both 14. We were pretty simmilar in looks except she was slightly taller than me. We had known each other since we were about 3 years old.

I was feeling a little sorry for myself. I'd broken up with my girlfriend Kristi last week, after I'd found her cheating on me with my friend Eric. Perhaps I should make that ex-friend. I'd walked in on them banging on the same bed Kristi and I slept in when I came back from a trip a day early. Not a pretty scene, with lots of screaming and Eric comically trying to get his clothes and hightail it out of there before I strangled him. So on Friday I found myself in my local bar,...

Lights were scattered throughout the labyrinth like stars, just bright enough to scavenge for supplies while leaving faces masked by darkness. However, much of the labyrinth was pitch black, a death sentence for those who lost their way without a light. There were also sources of running water scattered about to help prevent mass death by dehydration, but were exceptionally hard to find. To actually get one’s bearings was quite impossible, the winding passages tangled together like a mountain...
Bill lugged his overnight bag and two suitcases down the short hallway and into the bedroom. Rumpled sheets on the bed and bath towels strewn on the floor greeted the tired and grubby guest. ‘Bev must be a little behind schedule today.’ A search of the premises turned up nothing resembling clean linen, so he decided to at least change clothes before lunch. Sweatpants and a sweatshirt, worn under a fleece pullover, were barely sufficient to obstruct the brisk wind and dropping temperature as...
Once out of Bill’s sight, Faith slipped on her flannel shirt and strolled cheerfully down the tree-lined path, swinging her brazier in lazy circles. ‘I don’t think Bunyan will be sleeping alone in his cabin tonight,’ she decided, smiling at the high probability of pleasure. Sunlight, shining through the bare hardwoods, cast spidery stripes across the trail. The earth smelled alive. Buds had popped open on the undergrowth, drinking in the rays before the treetop canopy blocked them out for the...
Harry had stayed in his office most of that day, and both times he came out — for lunch and to head home — Veronica hadn’t been at the desk. He felt some sort of obligation to thank her or something for that morning’s dalliance, and the next day, when he came in and she wasn’t at her desk, he wondered if maybe the fact that he didn’t do anything had somehow offended her. There was a memo at his desk, though, saying ‘Sorry, talking with Reg, I’ll be in later. -V’, next to the regular checklist....
They stopped making out then so that Veronica could arrange the look she wanted to have when they entered. Her hair was mussed and her shirt undone, but apart from that she looked composed, whereas he, wearing nothing now but his underwear, shirt and socks, looked almost funny, and it looked even funnier as she led him up the hall to the bedroom, holding him by shirt as she pulled him along commandingly. ‘Which way?’ she asked before going too far, pausing at a hallway mirror to see if they...
‘Hello,’ came Veronica’s slightly tired voice through the intercom of the apartment building. ‘Hey you,’ said Harry, shuffling on the spot in the cold. ‘Harry?’ she asked. ‘What are you doing here?’ ‘Surprised?’ he asked. ‘No, it’s just…’ she said. ‘How did you find me?’ ‘I have your address on file,’ he said. ‘Is that okay?’ ‘Oh, sure…’ she said. ‘What’s up?’ ‘Not much,’ he said. ‘Say, can you let me in? It’s cold out here.’ ‘Oh, yeah,’ she said hurriedly, and the buzz sounded out....
Harry didn’t like to be called Harold, and he knew his wife knew that, so he figured something was afoot when Patricia no longer referred to him as anything but Harold. They weren’t youngsters any more, and he had begun to worry that this was about to turn into the sort of marriage that his parents had — one of annoyed tolerance that lasted until death did them part. He was still crazy about Trish, and in its own way, it made sense that he would still be crazy about her while she was beginning...
Faith held her breath, as Holder lifted the covers and lay down. The cool air from the black room flowed over her. The old mattress sagged under his weight. She struggled to keep from rolling into him. ‘What have I done,’ thought Faith, ‘acting slutty like that with someone I hardly know.’ She had teased him terribly, and now he may not keep his promise of only sleeping together. The bigger question was, did she want him too? Her boldness evaporated, leaving only timid anticipation. Would he...
When she arrived the next night, Veronica had decided upon a combination of the two. Harry had been pacing the living room nervously with a beer while Trish made the dinner, and had envisioned all sorts of disasters for the evening. He was dressed up a little, without a blazer but with a tie, while Trish was wearing dark colors, a backless blouse and skirt that looked like it would have been a hit at a dinner party or a Superbowl get together. When she walked out of the bedroom, Harry’s jaw had...
Veronica turned out to be pretty good with the video editing software, as Harry discovered the day after he brought it into work with the digital camera’s memory card. That morning, she was away from her desk, but the coffee was waiting for him along with a note giving quick instructions on where to find the file. He booted the computer, and then proceeded to watch a ten minute montage of him and Veronica screwing like mad to a jazz background. She’d done a fantastic job mixing the music...
The rising sun through the yellowed window shade cast a golden light over the bedroom. Bill sat quietly in the rocking chair, engrossed in the vision of peacefully sleeping Faith. She lay on her stomach with her face turned away, and arms hugging the pillow. The scene reminded him of a romantic antique postcard. Her tousled hair and naked shoulders invited loving hands and tender kisses. Resisting the temptation, he let her sleep undisturbed, remembering her exhaustion after the burst of...
As Faith lay basking in the orgasmic afterglow, she thought, ‘This is one of those rare moments when reality exceeds your fantasy.’ Turning onto her side and propping her head on her hand, She met the eyes of her grinning lover. ‘Was it only yesterday I was thinking how nice it would be just to spend time flirting with him?’ An old Rolling Stone’s tune popped into her head and she sang softly, ‘You can’t always get what you want, but if you try sometime, you just might find, you get what you...
Ripping off the last paycheck, Bill handed it to the painting contractor. ‘Thanks for the great job, Greg.’ ‘Anytime.’ Walking away, Greg added, ‘I’ll call you when the salmon are running. We’ll wet a line.’ ‘All right, sounds good.’ Bill wandered around the bunkhouse for one final inspection — engulfed in a satisfied sadness. The windows were open. A gentle breeze mingled with the eggshell semi-gloss to create a fresh paint and pine scent. The June sun heated the air beyond comfortable....
Bill leaned against the trunk of his car, and watched Faith hurry to the church parking lot 50 yards away. As she passed a group of churchwomen, they turned their backs in an obvious show of disdain. ‘What have I gotten myself into, now?’ Faith climbed into a beat up Dodge Power Wagon and sat there longer than reasonable. Climbing back out, she smiled at him, then kicked the tire in mock anger and threw up her hands in frustration. Moving to the front, she lifted the hood, reached in and,...
Disoriented, Faith snapped awake, and then remembered, ‘I’m at the Blue Star Inn.’ The bed was empty beside her and there were faint sounds coming from the bathroom. The sky outside was gray and it matched her mood. The aches in her body had found new strength, after being overpowered by the pleasure she’d felt last night. Faith trudged to the bathroom, impatient for some Tylenol, and thinking, ‘No more sex.’ The bathroom was steamy. Holder stood naked shaving his reflection. That was okay,...
A year later, Veronica walked into the office, as Jack was interviewing candidates to replace his recently-departed secretary, Susan, who had decided to give up her job to spend more time with the husband and children. He was happy for her, although he felt a twinge of jealousy that stuck with him for a while, as Susan’s husband’s recent promotion had meant they no longer needed the second income. With each candidate that came into his office that day, the feeling of guilt at having let his...
‘We need gloves,’ declared Bill, turning into the village hardware store parking lot. ‘I want your hands with all their fingers in working order.’ Faith laughed and jabbed his arm. ‘You’re so fussy, Holder.’ Feeling the same way about his. Aloud, she said, ‘I think you just want to look at all the tools. This is like a toy store to you, isn’t it?’ ‘A little. I’d rather play with you, but my body can only take so much. I have to do something while I recuperate.’ As they entered Sawyer’s...
Anticipation of good things to come energized Bill, as he drove the car from the hospital parking lot to the front door. Faith had finally been released and declared fit to return to normal life. He was eager to coddle and care for her, and to restore the woman that fallen in love with. Faith looked pitiful, sitting in the wheelchair, resting a hand on her forehead to shield her battered face from a passerby. The voluminous, gray NYU sweatshirt thoroughly hid her femininity. He felt a tingle...
When he arrived at work on the day of the presentation, Harry noticed that Mrs. Kowalski was still at the desk, and Veronica was nowhere within sight. He felt himself sink a little. It would have been nice to think he could have gotten a shot of confidence from her support that morning, but apparently he was on his own. When he said his good morning, and opened up the door to his office, though, he saw a steaming cup of coffee sitting on top of a checklist, along with a small memo. ‘R is going...
It all started off as just another day at school... I sat in Mrs. Benison's English class, doodling away in the margins of my notebook, while she droned on endlessly about the proper use of commas. Having her as my last subject of the day was both a blessing and a curse. On one hand, it gave me plenty of time to crap out any homework that I'd neglected to do the night before, but it also made the last hour of the day drag on forever. Sitting two seats across from me was Laura Haynes. She was...
You are Clark Kent AKA Kal-El of Krypton. Kara is your cousin (also from Krypton) It's been days since Kara arrived, and each day you have been turned on more and more by her beauty. If not for Lana, you'd probably be all over Kara. This morning you get up and head into the bathroom not even hearing that the waters on. After you absentmindedly wipe the mist off the mirror, you notice a female form in the shower. You know it's not your mom or Lana (since both are in town), so it must be Kara....
IncestEverything seemed oddly out of place this Wednesday evening as I intently watched Faithe lost in thought; staring into the food well at “The Mongolian Spirit.” We had enjoyed nearly seven and a half months of saying things to each other that could land you in jail in most states, but her distraction tonight was one laden with guilt. In moments like these I cursed the intuitive nature bestowed upon me at birth as my inner demons began their battle deep within my soul. Inevitably the “bad angel”...
