Sorry for the long delay. Writing can be a chore sometimes. While many
parts of this chapter have been complete since the beginning it's taken
a while to fill in the blanks and quite a bit had to be reworked.
A story never really ends, and I could polish forever, but I'm going to
call this the conclusion for Morgan's adventures for now, so I can work
on some other stories.
Thank you all for you're encouragement. Hope you enjoy.
Filling in for Beth - part 10
"What have you done!?" I shouted at Tom. "I spent all morning getting
that suit ready!"
"I'm nervous and I got hungry," he said sheepishly.
He filled the doorway of the exercise room, looking lost. Streaks of
liquid darkened the lapel of his blue jacket and there appeared to be
bits of cereal stuck to his collegiate stripe tie. He was so agitated
he practically pranced in place. Yesterday he'd acted like this was a
normal, monthly board meeting.
I pushed down my irritation and dismounted the rowing machine. A T-back
bra held my breasts high and steady, all covered by a super light T-
back tank that flared over tight yoga pants, clothes that make me feel
secure enough to exercise. Sweat trickled down my stomach.
"Strip down. How much time do you have?"
"The board meets at 6:00, so plenty of time. I just wanted to get there
early to glad-hand some of the alumni and plead my case, you know?"
He tossed the jacket on the exercise bike, loosened the tie with a
finger and lifted it over his head. For a moment he looked kind of
nerdy then he quickly undid a few buttons and pulled the shirt over his
head too.
"You're gray suit is in your closet. I'll press a shirt and see if I
can clean the tie. Stay away from the kitchen."
He looked relieved to have a plan of action and even chuckled a little
at the joke as he turned to leave. The tie was easy and a pair of clean
white dress shirts already hung in my spacious laundry room, they just
needed a touch of the iron. He hadn't reappeared by time I was done so
I ran up the stairs two at a time with the giant shirt held high to
keep it from dragging. Parts of me bounced despite the firm athletic
wear. His door was open and he sat in my place in gray slacks, tying
the second shoelace. The vanity stool looked small under him.
"I'll hang your stuff right here," I said.
He wouldn't have done anything but, just to make the point, I only took
one long step inside, just enough to reach the doorknob, then
retreated. The bed was covered with papers. He wasn't ready to go at
all! I itched to help but remained outside the door as he approached.
His forehead glistened with sweat. I'd never seen him so nervous, even
before big games.
"Thank you. I'm just so damned nervous, I'm not thinking straight," he
said, slowly closing his eyes and shaking his head as he donned the
crisp shirt.
His nervousness transferred itself to me. I fiddled with the the hem of
my top, smoothing the soft microfiber over my hips for something to do
with my hands while he pulled the already knotted tie over his head and
settled it in place.
"They're not going to do anything, are they? I mean, they can't, can
they? Not right before the season! You spent all year building a great
freshman lineup, right?"
He was very proud of his 'great freshman lineup,' which I knew little
about back then, but the words and my nervousness seemed to calm him
down. His face softened, his pants dropped and he smoothed the shirt
front and back over conservative white linen boxers that I'd never seen
him wear before.
"No! No, you don't need to worry about anything like that," he said
reassuringly. "The board controls the budget, so they could conceivably
do anything they want, but..."
He cocked his head and considered while he slowly bent to pull up his
pants. "No. We're OK. I mean, they might want to renegotiate some
things but nothing major."
He pulled himself up straight and tall to buckle his belt, looking much
more powerful and confident than a few minutes before.
"Do you need help organizing your presentation?" I asked, peeking my
head around enough to indicate the mess on the bed while remaining in
the hall.
Tom adjusted his clothing right in the doorway, a couple of feet and a
world away, then he suddenly stepped across the barrier. He was even
taller than normal in his Oxfords. My butt bumped the wall.
"That's all in the car. Can you fix my tie?" He said, holding his chin
up. A few red dots indicated a recent, close shave.
The knot was right at eye level. I reached up, made the adjustments and
couldn't prevent my hand from smoothing it down his chest. When I
looked up he was smiling. He ran his finger down my bare shoulder,
giving me a chill.
"You're not worried, are you?" he asked, making it sound like a crazy
idea.
He gripped my neck, bent and kissed me before I could react then turned
and strode back across the doorway. He whipped the gray suit jacket on
with a flourish and turned to me.
"Don't look so worried! I have it all under control," he said with a
nod that may have been more for his benefit than mine.
To this day I don't know if he was telling the truth or just putting on
a brave face for my benefit. It doesn't really matter. There were about
a thousand other things to worry about, right? Like, why was I standing
in the hallway because I was afraid my buddy would strip my clothes off
if I stepped inside his bedroom? Or, even weirder, why did he seem to
think this whole dance was somehow normal? He stepped across the
threshold again, sucked in his waist to fasten one jacket button and
stopped at attention.
"How do I look?" he asked, chin up.
I felt short. My breasts and butt felt pointlessly heavy and my hair
was damp and flat. But Tom looked great; tall, powerful and, thanks to
me, sharply dressed. Tom is the ideal I've dreamed of being my whole
life, when I was well and fit, and here he stood, decked out in the
clothes I picked for him, ready to take on the world. The questions
screamed inside my head: "Why are you so tall and strong while I'm
short and soft and plump? Is that fair? Why am I here and what do you
want from me?" One thing was certain though.
"You look great!" I said. I wanted to reach my arms around his waist
and lay my head on his hard chest but was afraid to touch him.
"You're incredibly handsome, Tom," I said in a hushed tone before I
could stop myself. My face flushed. Where did that come from?
He smiled, pleased but apparently not that surprised. He touched my arm
again, kissed me quickly on the top of the head then walked to the top
of the stairs and gave me one last pose.
"I think I like the gray better," he said firmly. Then he grinned
sideways and wiggled his brows mischievously."And don't worry. This is
what I do."
He descended the stairs with his head held high and gave me a confident
wave from the bottom. I had some part in that, right?
When he was gone I checked the girl's rooms even though I'd just
cleaned them in the morning then returned to Tom's room, after his
presence dissipated.
He was still there in his dirty clothes on the floor and the cluttered
bed and the smell. I stepped across the threshold and waited. A chill
passed through me. What would he have done with this outfit? I kicked
off my sneakers like he does, still tied, one in each corner, then
shucked down the damp yoga pants and pulled up my plain cotton panties,
also damp. The top was like a short dress. I shucked it off, threw it
away and reached behind me to pop the bra clasp. Oops, it's in the
front! I couldn't help smiling, wondering what Tom would have done with
that.
The bra dropped behind me. I squared my shoulders, fought the urge to
touch or cover myself and began picking up clothes. I bent at the waist
in a way that made my breasts swing out loosely then resettle each
time, slowly, the way I imagined a sexy woman shows off her body. Could
he possibly think these pale, floppy things attractive?
The mirrors showed every imperfection; blotchy white skin that never
sees the light of day, a trace of a scar, a too thick waist in spite of
bony ribs and shoulders and then there's my face and hair. Where to
start? Without makeup, with my hair pinned back, I looked blank,
unfinished and sexless. What was Tom thinking when he kissed me?
I knelt by his bed, closed my eyes and pictured him there. It was too
strange, like I was saying nightly prays in the hospital, only to Tom.
He'd probably like that, so no. I tried over by the dressing table, one
hand on the stool as I settled to my knees. No. That would be like he
was invading my safe zone.
I settled on a spot near the door, under the TV. Not very romantic but
then, he hadn't been romantic in this room yet, so I wasn't expecting
anything like that. My breasts tingled, imagining his hands and mouth,
and I hugged them hard. He made it clear how to get back there again,
all I had to do was ask, but what next, after he's hard and my breasts
are worn out? I was ready to get it over with, curious, even eager to
finally face this hidden monster and either tame it or, what? Run away?
That wasn't an option.
Most of all though, I wanted Tom to be happy and that meant either
stepping aside, making it clear I'm only interesting in the nanny job
and avoiding his room forever, or stepping up and taking care of my
man. Like Taylor. And Beth. That's what I had to do but when I pictured
the scene it was Beth on her knees, begging angelically. I couldn't
choke the words past my vocal cords, even alone in the bedroom.

"But why is Rachael in charge?" Susan whined loudly. Her mouth was full
of eggs, her nightgown was on inside-out and her hair stuck up on the
side in a wide spray. In the morning light her head appeared to be on
fire.
Rachael sat quietly, pleased with Tom's plan. Her hair was brushed into
long waterfalls of brown that cascaded over her shoulders. The outbreak
of pimples was expertly covered and her eyes and lips were unusually
dark. Tom probably thought she didn't use makeup.
"Morgan needs a night out sometimes too," he said with an infuriating
shrug, putting blame on me without explaining anything. Classic Tom.
"We haven't decided anything yet," I said loudly to the room. "I never
agreed to leave you two alone!"
"Do you know a good baby-sitter?" he asked with a smirk of certainty.
Both girls protested that indignity. The thought of Tammy in our house,
waving from the doorway as Tom and I left, passed through my mind for a
frightening moment.
"I didn't even agree to go!" I said.
The girls, seeing their chance at a night of freedom fleeing, protested
again.
"You have to go," they said in unison.
"You have to go," Tom echoed. "I already told everyone I was bringing a
date."
The cliche words were there: 'I don't have anything to wear!' but I bit
them back. Couldn't he take someone else? The girls were just too young
of course. An image of Tom in his best suit with Nadine on his arm
drifted into my mind, making my blood run cold. This was something I
needed to do, but dreaded. And what did 'everyone' and 'date' mean
anyway?
"You shouldn't scrunch up your face like that. It'll get stuck," Susan
said, quoting me with her mouth full.
I tried to fix my face by smiling at Rachael. She sat up even
straighter and batted her eyes innocently. There was humor in her voice
but with a worrisome edge of calculation. She wanted her night of
freedom.
"I just think Morgan deserves to be pampered once in a while, after
everything she does for us."
I suppose I should be gratefully for times like those, when all the
people I love are together, eating the food I prepared, hanging on my
every word. But the constant decisions are stressful too. I mean, what
would I wear? There was no time to see Nadine. And what was Rachael up
to?
+
"We need to finish up. You're dad will be home soon," I said loudly,
stroking on mascara in the vanity mirror but aiming my mouth toward the
closet door.
Rachael popped out in a full length black dress, satin with a built in
velvet top, sleeveless. A belt made of silver disks gave her hips. Even
on the tightest hole it was too long so that it hung down slightly,
puckering the velvet badly. She stood on tiptoes to prevent the hem
from touching the floor. It was too big for her, plain and simple.
"Too formal, and too big for you," I said.
She pinched the sides of the dress, lifted, turned and disappeared back
into the closet with a rustle of fabric. I started on my eyebrows with
tweezers and a new pencil Nadine suggested. Rachael reappeared holding
a dress made of layers of yellow chiffon.
"What about this? Dad would love you in this," she said innocently. I
think. He probably loved the view when Beth wore it.
"I'm not wearing anything strapless. I'd be pulling at it constantly."
She shrugged her father's shrug and returned to the closet.
"Why do you always run out of the room before Daddy gets home?" She
asked from far away.
I dabbed foundation on my neck and chest and pretended to not hear the
question.
She returned this time with a brightly colored dress with wide blue
straps and a matching waist band. The high waist made the top part, the
boob part, look too small. There would be cleavage. The bottom was a
swirl of blue, green and white. It looked long enough but far too airy
and light to wear in public.
"This is what Mom wore when it was hot and muggy," she said. She hung
it on the vanity hook and brushed the light material lovingly.
"That looks a little casual. Shouldn't I wear, like something that
covers my arms and everything?"
Rachael pinched the sides of the dress, lifted, then tip-toed across
the room and sort of leaned on the bed. She shrugged and absently
brushed her legs, enjoying the fine material, working on her answer or
waiting for mine?
I gave myself one last inspection. Eyes balanced, complexion smooth and
consistent from forehead down and lips neutral but moist, just what I
expected from Rachael. The rest of the makeup would come later, right
before we leave. I turned and brushed the front of my cotton day-dress,
preparing to stand and shoo her out so I could try on a couple of
dresses again. It was going to be a hot and muggy night.
She played with her hair, twisting a thick strand over one small velvet
mound. She blinked and cleared her throat. I really don't like to leave
questions unanswered.
"It's a combination of things," I said, nodding sagely so she would
understand the deep complexities and also to buy time. "Sometimes it
feels like your Mom is here, you know?"
"Absolutely!" she replied, happy at the thought. "I feel that all the
time!"
Then she reconsidered and grew grave. "Oh, I see. You and Daddy,
right?" She looked around the room, considered again and brightened.
"But it's OK. That's what she wants. Its like she's here helping you!"
That gave me a creepy feeling to be honest but let it slide. Rachael
appeared satisfied with the answer.
"And what have you got planned for tonight?" I asked in return.
She pursed her lips, lifted the dress and tip-toed back to the closet.
She turned in the doorway.
"I was going to wear this dress but it's too big. And I'm supposed to
call Jenny Moore tonight."
She tried to make it sound like a school assignment but she's not a
good liar, so I waited. Jenny Moore is 14. She stamped her foot.
"Jenny has a boyfriend."
"So Jenny is going to tell you all about boyfriends, huh?" I asked,
perhaps sounding a little hurt. Her answer surprised me.
"Maybe I want some independent corroboration," she said with her nose
in the air and only one stumble on the last word. She looked regal in
the black dress.
"Well, don't believe everything you hear. You know you can ask me
anything," I reassured her for the thousandth time.
"I know," she said with a sweet smile. "Are you and Daddy going to
dance tonight?"
"There's not going to be dancing," I said with a laugh. "And if there
is I won't be doing it. And I can't imagine your Dad dancing either."
She just gave the Tom shrug and pointed at the light dress. "Mom always
danced and this is what she wore when it was hot."
She closed the closet door behind her. For privacy or to keep me away
from other dresses?

The thin polyester dress covered my knees in the car and when Tom
helped me out in a dark area of the parking lot I was too busy checking
my hair and makeup one last time to worry about legs. The night was
warm and so moist that my bare shoulders and Tom's hand felt clammy by
the time we reached the door. The cold air of the lobby hit me like an
arctic blast up the skirt. Goosebumps rolled up my arms and cool
polyester danced round my thighs and hips. I felt suddenly naked,
inside a school no less.
A young man in a red jacket took tickets from a matched pair of older
couples. The men were portly, with tufts of gray hair sticking out the
sides and back, in well worn suit pants and white shirts open at the
neck, like maybe they each left a work jacket and tie in the car. The
ladies figures were obscured by loose, pastel sundresses, one pink, one
lavender, that reached almost to the floor. They both watched their
husbands and clutched long shawls around their otherwise naked
shoulders. They'd had their hair and makeup done.
I checked the hem of my dress again and prayed the ladies wouldn't look
my way. A knee barely peeked out yet cool air touched me all over.
Tom's hand was on my back, like he might propel me forward. I slipped
aside.
"I can't do this. I feel naked," I said under my breath.
Tom regarded me calmly. I rubbed my arms to indicate nakedness.
"Did you want me to get your coat thingy out of the car?" He asked,
pushing the door open, ready to exit.
We'd only stepped inside the building and my first crisis: Wait here,
naked, cold and alone or make the muggy trek to the car and back.
"I'll be back in a second," he said, then he was gone, striding at a
pace I couldn't hope to match in three inch wedges.
I stood up straight and took inventory again. The lady in pink gave me
an appraising look then smiled and nodded a greeting, causing my heart
to leap unexpectedly. I smiled back and gave an awkward wave then bit
my lip, conscious of my dark nails and matching burgundy lipstick. Hers
was subdued and matched her dress, soft pink. She turned to follow her
friend through the doors, still smiling, guided by her husband's hand
on her back.
The air didn't feel as cold once I got used to it and the plain black
drape Tom held for me really helped. He handed the kid the tickets then
almost shoved me through the doorway into a large hall dotted with
clusters of people. I clutched my 'coat thingy' tight and shielded my
upper half with the purse while Tom surveyed the room. Music came from
somewhere but nobody was dancing.
There must have been a dozen little groups, most included at least one
stout young man in a team jersey. There were plenty of middle-aged men
dressed in slacks but there were also quite a few women, wives of
professors or alumni fans presumably. Most of the women wore cool,
flowing dresses that covered their knees. There were a lot of bare arms
and quite a few naked shoulders but most of those were covered with a
wrap of some kind I was glad to see. So far my dress and makeup didn't
appear to be too far off the mark. Nobody pointed or called me a slut.
Taylor's husband, Jim, stood out in a room full of tall men. What was
he doing here? He spotted me, perked up even taller then suddenly broke
away from the group he was part of. In seconds he was almost on us.
Behind him I could see Taylor too. Blonde curls fell around naked
shoulders. It looked like she was apologizing to the group before
following her giant husband. I braced myself for impact.
"Coach Hannover!" Jim cried with satisfaction, like he'd made a
discovery. He didn't even look at me, just thrust out his hand at Tom.
"I've been wanting to talk to you about something."
Tom had to look up at someone for a change so it was hard to read his
expression but he gripped the hand and shook it firmly.
"What can I do for you, Jim?" He asked, like they were old friends. Did
they know each other? What could that mean?
Jim hunched forward and pointed a finger vaguely, possibly my way. His
head cocked to the side thoughtfully and he frowned, like an owl with
indigestion.
"My wife recently convinced me to watch some football and, well,
frankly, it was terribly fascinating. I have a lot of questions," he
stated.
"Fire away!" Tom said with an indulgent smile. One hand still touched
my back reassuringly.
"Well, I've been looking at your stats for last year. Very interesting
stuff," Jim said mysteriously.
"Yeah? Find anything useful?" Tom asked seriously. He leaned closer and
his hand withdrew.
Taylor appeared on Jim's arm, all hair and freckled flesh above layers
of green gauze. Strapless. I was instantly dying to know how she kept
it all up! She held a martini glass up with perfect green nails and
flashed a huge, knowing, green smile at me then looked up at her
husband and poked him with a nail.
"Honey. You should at least let people get inside the room," she said,
plenty loud enough for him to hear.
Neither man acknowledged her, which was surprising since I could barely
take my eyes off her breasts. You'd think Tom's tongue would be hanging
out but the two men were already lost in a world of football or
statistics or whatever. They didn't even introduce us.
"How about we let the men talk? Let's get you a drink," Taylor said.
She took my arm and pulled me toward the bar, away from Tom, and I
followed reluctantly, afraid to leave his long shadow. She was only
half his size and shook and bounced delightfully when she walked, which
reminded me of the wiggle of my own breasts and legs. The men went on
talking, both of them using their hands wildly, completely oblivious to
our absence.
A cluster of men near the bar weren't so oblivious. Eyes watched us
approach. Taylor didn't seem to mind when I moved to hide behind her.
She glanced their way once then shook her hair and gave me a long,
appraising look. Her makeup was light, just enough to give her eyes a
hint of green. She wasn't hiding her age. It wasn't over the top but
the whole green effect was almost whimsical. Over her shoulder I could
see then men watching her butt. Or hair. Or legs. Who knows?
"I love your dress," she said excitedly. "And your hair? You're finally
showing your pretty face!"
She held her hands out like she might grab my head for a kiss. She was
wearing sandals, no heel, which made me feel big, and she smelled good
too. A new perfume? She was so close and so sexy, but men were watching
and her husband and Tom were right behind me. I panicked and started
back. Her face dropped for a second then turned into a determined
smile.
"You're more twitchy than ever. That's OK." She said. Her bare arm
lifted and the bartender was there. Had he been there all along,
listening to us? "A white wine for the lady," she said without turning
her head.
At that point I was probably beet red. The trusty, overstuffed leather
purse was a shield.
"I'm sorry," I said. "I'm just. This is..." I scanned the group of men
again; Five professor types hung on the words of a towering athlete,
black with thick dreadlocks. They'd all lost interest in Taylor's ass.
"It's OK honey," she said soothingly. She glanced over her shoulder
then back. Her hair whipped. "Just relax."
She lifted a glass of pale liquid from nowhere and smiled. It was just
Taylor. Up close you can see the tooth. My heart settled enough to
lower the purse and take the glass. I pinched the stem like her and my
hand looked as pretty as hers, just a different color, burgundy. She
tapped the glass with a nail.
"Have a sip, Sweetheart. Relax," she said.
She lifted her own glass slowly, leading me, and tossed back the last
of her drink with a flourish. Was I supposed to drink the whole thing?
I took a good swallow, to wet my lips, then another to clear my throat
and then one more because it tasted so damned good. Warmth flow into my
stomach. Hair tickled my shoulders, hoop earrings bumped my neck and
wine and lipstick were on the tip of my tongue. Taylor smiled and
stroked my arm lightly. I relaxed and lowered the heavy purse so that
it bumped my leg, reminding me for a moment of my legs sticking out,
protected by only the sheerest, nude pantyhose. There's always
something.
"I've certainly got my work cut out for me," Taylor said, giving me
another long look up and down. "You really need to unwind. And this is
just the place to do it!"
She tapped my glass again and I threw it back with Taylor's flamboyant
air, a sort of joke from the salon. It was cool and sweet going down
and made the situation sort of familiar.
"That was good," I said with a gasp, surprising myself.
"That's enough for now. Next we need to do something with your
luggage."
She hooked my arm with hers and pulled me away. Her arm was cool and
smooth and irresistible. We swept past the guys, who never looked down,
dodged past a group of boys in prep-school jackets trailing a blond
Adonis who might have been the star quarterback and parked ourselves
behind two youngish men in the familiar academic uniform of dark pants
and white shirt. Each of them held a small purse and a crumpled sweater
as if they might explode any second. They handed the items over to the
coat check boy with obvious relief.
I gave up my own items more reluctantly. The wrap I could sacrifice but
there was no way I could leave my phone or makeup or a million other
things! She pointed out a half dozen women nearby with bare-shoulders
and empty hands. I handed over the heavy purse and turned.
"What do you do with your hands?" I asked innocently then blushed,
remembering Tom at my breast for some reason.
Taylor didn't notice. She scanned the room, planning her next move. My
hand moved by itself to stoke the back of her brown arm. She turned and
smiled then slid closer. Her hand touched my back, our hips bumped
softly, hair touched and our perfumes mingled. I was afraid to move.
"Which one is Reggie?" She asked inches from my cheek. I couldn't see
where she was looking for all the hair.
He was to our right, behind another group of men, alumni maybe. Milton
stood beside him like a bodyguard, hair slicked back, biceps attempting
to rip his thin black V-neck, clutching a tiny beer bottle in one hand
and waving the other angrily. Reggie, in a team jersey, just smiled
that bright smile and watched the crowd. I pointed.
"Oh my!" Taylor shouted. "I knew they would be big but that one is just
..." she trailed off and her hair shook. "Yep, that's the perfect pair
for Tammy and Nadine alright. Introduce me!"
My heart sank. What could be worse than Nadine with that jerk? That
would be a disaster. Taylor pulled and I resisted.
"Milton's a jerk," I said quickly. "You don't want to meet him."
"Now I really do want to meet him. I know how to handle jerks," she
replied confidently. She threw back her hair and squared her small
shoulders, ready for battle.
Reggie saw us coming and slugged Milton to get his attention. Milton
ran one hand across his hair before turning. He took in Taylor hungrily
but his face had the good grace to fall a little when he spotted me. A
quick glance checked to see if I was armed with condiments. Taylor
stopped when they towered over her, I made the introductions quickly
and each man took her hand for a moment and had a good look at her
boobs.
"This is Morgan's first time at one of our little alumni 'meet and
greets'. Are you showing her the ropes?" Reggie asked.
"This is my first time too," Taylor said, scanning the not so little
crowd.
"Yeah, 'cause I would have remembered you," Milton rumbled deeply.
"Thank you," Taylor said brightly, like she actually appreciated the
oily compliment. She appraised him up and down, hands on ample hips.
"And I would have remembered you too, big boy."
Milton grinned and licked his lips, preparing to say something crude.
Reggie interrupted.
"Can we get you ladies drinks?" he asked, nudging Milton hard. They
both nodded and smiled. We shook our heads 'no.'
"I can introduce you to the best offensive line in the conference,"
Milton offered. He pointed to a group of four huge boys in jerseys,
huddled together for photos. Four more Miltons, just what we needed.
"No, thank you," Taylor said cheerily, making decisions for us both.
Her hair shook like a living thing, transfixing the men. Milton slicked
his hair and licked his lips.
"It was nice meeting you boys," Taylor said suddenly, before he could
speak. "But I think I hear music."
She took my hand and led me quickly away across the room. I spotted Tom
addressing a trio of alumni couples, barely 10 feet from where we left
him. Jim wasn't far away, towering over a pair of academics, weaving
something in the air with his hands.
Taylor guided me toward the open double doors in back where music
thumped loudly, just the two us, hand in hand. The warm night air was
like passing through a curtain, into another world. The only light was
a rectangle of colored bulbs above a mass of heaving bodies, bouncing
to the beat.
"Come on, let's dance!" Taylor yelled into my ear then she set off,
still holding my hand.
She found a space inside the group of moving people then turned and
stared at me seductively. Her hips waved rhythmically under the loose
skirts and her hands raised above her head as if lifted by stings at
her wrists. The dress clung heroically above the nipple line. People
moved and shook to the music in various ways all around us and the
sexiest woman in the room wanted me to dance with her. What was I
supposed to do?
"Let yourself free," Taylor shouted over the music. "Move your hips."
Outside the ring of people the world was dark. It was like we were
alone. Taylor shook her head and hair waved wildly. Her arms fluttered
lazily in the air like she might lift off the ground any second and
soft breasts quivered and bounced t above a cloud of green.
I tried to imitate her motions a little. My hips and shoulders rocked
side to side and I let my eyes close for a second. She was still there,
arms high, lost in her own dreamworld. I lifted my arms higher and
higher like her. Warm night air caressed my naked underarms but I was
confident they were neat and tidy. The dress hem didn't rise too much
and breasts held. I closed my eyes again and let the music flow over
me.
It was like flying, alone in the clouds. I forgot Tom and everybody for
a glorious moment. Taylor was there whenever I opened my eyes, showing
me the way. I shook my hair like her and let my boobs and big ass fend
for themselves for a while.
Who knows how long we danced? Faces swam into view from time to time,
mostly tall men trying to interpose themselves between us for some
reason. Sometimes Taylor and I had to dance so close our breasts
brushed before they got the message and even then they wouldn't leave.
I could see them in the dark, watching her move.
I was sweaty and gross and didn't care until Tom's face swam into view
above me. He was dancing stiffly, biting his lip and looking at my
chest and I suddenly became self conscious and covered myself with my
arms. They were clammy.
"I want you to meet some people," he shouted over the music, still
dancing, sort of.
He lifted his chin in greeting to someone behind me and waved at
someone else. I felt really self conscious. Taylor stopped dancing too
and was watching closely near Tom's elbow.
"We should freshen up first," Taylor shouted, reaching for my hand.
Tom surveyed her for naked skin, checked me as well, tried to figure
something out with his weak brain, nodded, pointed at his wrist then
pointed to the doors.
"Ten minutes, outside the bathrooms!" he shouted, loud enough for
everyone dancing to hear.
There was a short line so, by time I emerged from the stall with
everything dabbed dry and my clothes all positioned properly, it was
well past the ten minute mark. I could almost feel Tom tapping his foot
outside while apologizing to a crowd of important people. Taylor was
already at a sink, applying green lipstick. She waved me over.
"I need to get back out there. He said ten minutes," I told her.
Two other woman sharing the next mirror paused and watched.
"No, you need to fix your hair and makeup before you go out," Taylor
said.
"But he's waiting," I protested.
Both strangers laughed.
"She's young," Taylor told them while laughing herself.
She took my arm and pulled me to the mirror. Yep, I did need some work.
"We don't go out until we're beautiful. And making them wait is half
the fun, right?" The other women laughed and nodded in agreement. A
brush appeared and for a moment it was like being at Nadine's.
+
We hadn't missed anything. Tom was forming what appeared to be his
staff and a number of his players into a loose line near the exit,
backs to us. The music had stopped and there was a crowd near the coat-
check. Tom spotted me and waved urgently.
Taylor waved away my thanks and pushed me toward the line of massive
men.
"Go on. You look great. Smile!" She stood up straighter and held her
head high, reminding me to to do the same. It was so reassuring to know
everything was perfect from head to toe. Three women told me so in the
bathroom.
There were a two other women in line: A perky blonde held Jason's hand
and a very fit, petite women in a tight blue sheath with at least a 4"
heels occupied the spot between Tom and Reggie. This was the mysterious
'Reggie's wife' but there was no time to talk.
Somehow I ended up last in line. Fortunately it moved fast, like
everyone was in a hurry to get home. There was a Dean of something then
a string of professors and alumni that nobody could hope to remember.
Tom introduced me only as 'My date. Morgan.'
The ladies from the restroom went by and we laughed about making men
wait. Jim and Taylor went past and we were finally introduced. She hung
on his arm as they left, shamelessly adoring her husband, the tallest
man in the room. Reggie's wife, Susan, was introduced and ushered away.
A couple of women scowled at me and a lot of the men couldn't keep
their eyes up.
Tom disappeared and returned with my wrap and purse, small in his
hands. Did he think they might explode? I stepped into the wrap,
relieved him of his burden and pointed myself toward home. The door
opened as I approached and Tom smiled in a mix of humor and
anticipation and guided me through. His arm was very supportive across
the parking lot and into the car.
We drove home in silence. His hand caressed my leg when it wasn't
working and I let it roam as it pleased. Was he teasing me? His fingers
touched my inner thigh once or twice but that was it. He clearly liked
the feel of the polyester dress on my legs, just like me. I squeezed
his forearm, right there, almost in my lap, hairy and warm. It's very
large and firm and a little scary if you let your imagination run wild.
+
Both girls wore asleep on the floor on a large blanket, a picnic scene,
nightgowns stained with melted ice cream and their faces smeared with a
mix of makeup, chocolate and the orange of cheese puffs. They looked
like small, passed out clowns. Tom carried them upstairs where they
managed to clean up then stumble into nightgowns then bed. The living
room was a disaster area. I attacked the worst parts and saved the rest
for tomorrow, when I would have help.
His door was open and he was just coming out of the bathroom in fluffy
pajama pants that sat low on his hips, no shirt. Those mysterious
muscles dove under the waistband, pointing. He sucked in his stomach
when he spotted me outside the door, I could tell, boosting my
confidence. I stepped across the threshold, closed the door and locked
it, loose and ready for anything
He kissed me first, hard and aggressive, just to show who's boss. Then
he fumbled finding the hem of the loose dress, hands slid up my sides
to the band, the whole thing went up, something caught on a bra cup and
continued on over my head on with a slight tearing sound. One cup ended
up twisted at my neck, a whole white breast exposed to the cool air.
Tom stared at it like he didn't know what to do.
"Suck me," I said eagerly, honestly short of breath.
He hesitated, controlled, waiting. I swallowed and tried again.
"Suck my fat titty. Please," I said as best I could.
He smiled suddenly, gripped my boob so fast it startled me even though
I'd just asked for it, and his head ducked down to suck a nipple into
his hot mouth. It was difficult to balance, but he held me up with a
hand behind my back.
He found the bra clasp, thank God, paused long enough to threw the
thing away like it was on fire then he attacked my other breast,
bringing balance to the world. I stood on tip-toes, held his arms and
enjoyed the waves of electricity that ran though me. It was like
dancing, only better.
He came up for a gasp of air then kissed me hard again, invading my
mouth with his tongue. It's funny how easy it was to let go, knowing he
would never hurt me. When he gave me another chance to speak the words
came out all by themselves. Those words every man wants to hear.
"You were right," I said quietly, gripping his thick arms and pushing
my tits into his warm chest. I looked right up into his eyes.
"Everything you said is true. I do want to get your cock out, and I
want to kiss it and suck it. It's all I can think about."
He was hard because of me, I could feel it, and he wasn't backing away.
I was saying the right words so far. A hand found my hair, gripped
tight and pulled my head back until I could barely see his face, giving
me a taste of what lay in store if I continued.
"Are you sure slut?" he asked.
It's like being slapped. But there was only one way forward.
"Yes, I'm sure," I said.
I let my knees loosen and bend so that his grip relaxed too and I could
see him, watching me placidly up above. What was he thinking? My hands
shifted down his body to his firm butt and I let my cheek brush the
super soft bulge. I looked up.
"May I suck you cock, please?" I asked. It was right there, pressing
against the thin waistband!
"That would make you a cock sucking whore," he said from way up high
and I didn't see any point in arguing.
I hugged him around the legs and pressed my mouth and chin into the
side of his cock, gauging it's size. The pajama material really is
super soft.
"Then I want to be your cock sucking whore," I mumbled into his crotch.
"Please."
He let me grip it and trace its size. It was still difficult to gauge
what I was working with in the loose folds of the pants. I touched his
hips and traced the surprisingly smooth and firm muscles then hooked
the pants and slid them down quickly, all the way to his knees.
He was wearing red bikini underwear! His erection overflowed the waist
of the girly garment, pressed tight against his hairy stomach. An inch
of lurid purple peeked at me, pinched by the elastic band. I felt sorry
for it. I kissed the exposed skin quickly, testing my own will, and it
grew, trying to get out. I was causing that! His balls looked huge in
the pouch. They needed to be freed.
His dick flopped out then bounced to attention.
I'd already decided how nasty I would get and sure enough, Tom guided
my face right to his hairy balls the instant they were exposed. He was
very hairy back then, and kind of smelly, so all I could really do at
first was hold my breath and pinch the disgusting loose flesh with my
lips. I nibbled, grabbed the hot meat laying across my face and moved
my hand up and down. The smell was tolerable.
Pulling the heavy dick to the side, I looked up at Tom. He had the
nicest smile! He wasn't laughing at me, or angry, or freaked out that I
was touching his dick. He looked so happy. I couldn't help moving my
hand up and down and he smiled even bigger. God, his cock was hot and
my nails looked sexy as hell too. His hand guided my head.
"Oh God yeah. Lick my balls slut," he said in a low moan.
He lifted even higher on his toes and I tried to fit one in my mouth.
It was just too big and hairy so I lapped at the disgusting hair and
worked the hand some more, bringing another moan. His sounds of
pleasure were unbelievably exciting. No woman was ever this excited by
my touch! I looked up and could see those ab muscles clenching tightly.
His head was thrown back in ecstasy. I pictured Beth with me and
everything was OK.
The shaft of his cock was smooth and hot in comparison. When I licked
the ridge below the glans it bucked and swelled in my hand like a
living thing. My touch was doing that to Tom! My own small groin ached
in sympathy.
I engulfed the musty tasting head of his cock eagerly, lapping that
sensitive spot and working my hand quickly up and down in a way that
must have felt great because he groaned so loudly I thought he was
about to cum. I tried to flinch away but too late!
Both hands gripped my dead and he forced himself deeper, against the
back of my throat. He was softer than the vegetable I'd practiced with
but still too big to enter. I gripped his cock tighter and held on,
tongue out like a good girl. He began to thrust. Tom had my hair in a
death grip, fucking in short little thrusts that got faster and faster
while he panted like a marathon runner. The struggle only lasted a
minute or so.
"That's right! Suck my cock," he said over and over as the fucked.
I closed my eyes and fought to keep him from going too deep and to keep
my teeth back, trying to be the best hole I could be. The rest of me
bounced freely but there was nothing I could do about that.
He froze.
"Ho," he said in a long sigh. His cock swelled and a foreign taste,
like sweat or tears, crept into my mouth. He said it again, a deep "Ho"
like he'd been punched in the stomach. His legs gave out a bit and he
trembled, like he was having convulsions, but I couldn't see anything
but pubic hair. He thrust a few more times.
"Oh God!" He breathed at last.
His cock convulsed, the first spurts hit the back of my tongue, then he
was just everywhere. I shut my eyes tight and concentrated on
breathing. It was in my cheeks and around my tongue, slimy and musky
but surprisingly tasteless, then it was trying to escape the seal of my
lips. He kept pumping and pulling my hair. I always imagined a girl
could just swallow the mess if she wanted, clean and simple, like
drinking from a straw. It doesn't work like that.
When I tried to swallow the pressure was too much. I sputtered and
coughed. The seal broke and warm liquid spurted onto my grip hand. It
felt like a lot. I instinctively cupped my free hand to catch the mess
and immediately regretted it.
"God, you nasty slut," Tom said between gasps for air.
I held on, afraid to move while he came down from his orgasm. I know
how sensitive a man can be. We locked together like that for another
minute or so until the pumping stopped and the panting subsided.
Fortunately, our Tom softens quickly. The diamond hard ramrod felt
flexible in my hand. There was room to attempt another swallow. It was
difficult to tell if anything went down.
He let me pull off. His cock was red and wet, staring at me with its
slit of an eye oozing another drop. There was a big glob on my hand. I
swallowed and swallowed then took him in again. The slime was gone but
the funk only got worse. His cum was already growing sticky on my lips.
"Go ahead and clean up," he said.
One fist still gripped my hair so tightly I couldn't move. He guided my
head to the white glob coating my finger. I had to suck to get it up. I
did the same with the oyster in my other palm, ready for this to be
over.
Tom let me go and lifted his limp penis high, pinching the skin on top
like it was contaminated. There was another disgusting sight, another
glob of Tom's cum, suspended in a dense thicket of scrotal hair.
"Get it," he said, thrusting his sack at me. "Get it!" He sounded
nervous, like the drop might burn his skin any second. It didn't even
have a taste, the big baby.
Finally he was limp and drained, in full retreat, all the intimidation
gone. I sat back on my heels. The weird thing is, what should have been
profoundly humiliating felt like victory for some reason. I could still
hear his shivering moans and feel his massive legs give way. The cock
that was so huge and intimidating a few minutes before had wilted. It
hung there, spent, because of me. It hadn't even taken that long. Now I
just needed to rinse my mouth out, with bleach.
I held up my arms and Tom, always the gentleman, almost lifted me onto
my feet by the arms and set me on shaky legs, still in the wedges for
some bizarre reason. For a second I thought he might kiss me, which
would have been amazingly reassuring, or maybe at least pinch a boob
one more time. I was still quite excited, in a nauseated sort of way.
But no. That was the end. He was pulling up his panties.
I covered my chest and watched him tuck the former monster into the
little things. His cock was only a lump in the pouch. He looked at me
like he might order a beer, then thought better of it.
"That was amazing. Did you get enough?" he asked, dead serious.
How did Beth do it? The most difficult part of the evening was not
laughing and punching him in the face. My lips were sticky when I
smiled and my breath smelled thick.
"Yes. Thank you," I replied, practicing my manners.
He obviously didn't want to make out again but a kiss would have been
nice. Touching him was out of the question too, since both my hands
were nasty. I never know what to do with my hands anyway, so I pushed
my hair back and covered my breasts.
A cloud passed over his face. He looked embarrassed! Was that a blush?
"I forget sometimes," he said quietly. "You make me forget sometimes.
Thank you, Morgan."
He touched my hair lightly, one of the most obvious differences between
Beth and me, then he pushed the mess back with a finger.
He beamed his perfect teeth and handsome face at me. His hair was still
perfect, because nobody had been pulling it, and his breath was
probably still sweet. The muscles of his chest were hard and shifted
like snakes under his skin. Every time I moved, something shook, out of
control. He kept looking at my tits.
It just came out of me.
"You're an asshole, Tommy Hannover," I said in the same loving tone I'd
used for years, except this time with cum on my breath.
He grinned back the same as always, in agreement with my assessment,
daring me to do something about it. I considered lunging toward him to
see what he would do if I tried to kiss him. He stood up taller,
keeping some distance and took a hand full of hair lightly. Safe now,
his eyes sparkled and his brows wiggled.
"And you're a good slut," he said.
The word startled me, forcing me to back to my role, but I found didn't
mind. This was Beth's role in the bedroom and she loved it. I was
convinced. I understood. It was like passing a test. There had been a
test, a year long test with a grueling physical challenge at the end
requiring trust and teamwork, and I passed! He just didn't want to kiss
me right now, which I could understand.
"I should probably clean up now," I said, breaking the spell.
He released me and we went about our business for a while. I fixed my
face then picked up the room topless while he lay on his throne and
clicked the remote. The loose boobs were annoying actually but it was
funny to watch Tom trying to not look while we talked. Obviously he
wanted more. I mean, it only took a few minutes for him to cum. We only
kissed for a minute and he barely touched my boobs. I kind of felt bad
for Tom. Crazy, right?
I got a chill when he brought up the party. Would he ask about Taylor?
He had other people to discuss first, deans and donors, alumni and
sponsors, and a funny story wherein Milton might have learned a lesson
in chivalry.
I'd begun to relax. The room was clean and I was considering what to do
next. Sheets covered his waist. It would be warm under there and, to be
honest, I kind of wanted another look at the thing, just to see if I
could control the situation better. The alien taste was gone but I kept
searching for it in the corners of my mouth, you know? What would he do
if I climbed up into his bed?
"Man, you sure went for the hottest piece of ass in the room!" He said
suddenly. I froze. "Can you believe she's married to Jim, that tall
goofy guy I was talking to? He's a physics professor!"
I shook my head, afraid to speak. Hair tickled my shoulders, raising
goosebumps and I half covered myself with an arm, smoothing away the
chill, squishing my breasts. He looked me up and down with a leer.
"You two were fast friends from the start. Man! What a perfect pair!"
He shook his head in wonder. Was he talking about us or boobs?
"She's really nice," I said lamely.
Tom snorted and I braced myself for an awkward question or a crude
comment about my friend. I pulled the top gown out of a drawer, too
sheer to put on now so I clutched it to my chest.
"I watched you two on the dance floor for a long time," he said in a
dreamy voice. My skin crawled, my heart fluttered and my stomach turned
over, all at the same time. He looked me in the eye and shook his head.
"I mean, nobody could take their eyes off of you two."
I felt really naked again and confused by what he was saying. Had I
embarrassed myself somehow? The little gown stretched just enough to
cover both my nipples
"We didn't do anything outlandish, did we?" I asked. "We were just
dancing."
He laughed heartily then sort of rolled his eyes and sat back.
"You two knew what you were doing. She did anyway."
"What?" I asked in real ignorance. I stuck a hand in the closet and
felt for a robe, pulled it out and put it on. Short and silky but
opaque. "Did I do something wrong?" I asked.
He looked at me through his brows like I was being stupid and I began
to blush. What had I done?
"Every dick in the place was hard," he said, like stating an obvious
fact.
That's something I'd heard him say many times before, the exact same
way. I pictured the dicks, dozens of them, aiming at Taylor and me as
we danced with our eyes closed. It wasn't a scary image at all. A warm,
excited shiver shot through me unexpectedly and my knees were suddenly
weak.
I considered saying something sassy in reply but that could only have
one conclusion and my throat probably needed a rest. He clicked off the
TV and bedside light.
I tucked him in like I do the girls, with a kiss on the forehead, but
let the front of the gown hang open in case that had been an
invitation. He only pulled the covers up and sighed.
"Good night, Honey," he said quietly.
He half grinned and closed his eyes, contented and near sleep. Really,
what would happen if I climbed on top of him? I smoothed the covers
over his chest and flat stomach.
"Good night, Tom. I had a really good time tonight," I said softly.
His eyes opened when my hand came close and he looked concerned.
"Do you need more?" he asked.
It took a moment. More what? When it hit, he was inviting me to suck
his dick again, I had to stifle a laugh. How could he keep a straight
face?
"No. I'm good for now, thank you."
His eyes drooped heavily. I finally laughed out loud, because he looked
so content and that made me happy. He just smiled contentedly.
+
"FASTER. FASTER!" Suzy screamed, so loudly it echoed off the nearby
trees. Tom spun even faster, leaning so far back it frightened me.
Suzy's legs swung limply by, again and again until I almost got dizzy
just watching. When they finally crashed to the ground we were all
laughing so hard it was difficult to breath.
Suzy rolled over in the thick grass of our back yard and looked my way.
She'd already lost one hair clip and the other hung uselessly from a
strand of her hair, the whole golden mess adorned with sticks and
leaves. I've given up fighting about her hair, except in the morning
and before bed.
"Why is Daddy so happy today?" she asked breathlessly, in complete
innocence.
"Come on, it's not that noticeable is it?" Tom asked, standing up and
brushing off the front of his T-shirt with a toothy smile. His legs had
specks of green in the curly blond hairs and there are leaves in his
blond hair too. I couldn't help looking at the front of his pants.
There was nothing to see there, wrinkles and a grass stain that needed
to be sprayed before it sets, I just couldn't not look. It was
difficult to reconcile this tame, happy man with the grunting, swearing
beast from last night.
"It's pretty obvious," Rachael mumbled beside me.
It's a safe bet her eyes are rolling. Head buried in a book, her face
was shielded by a curtain of chestnut hair. I pulled up the top of my
strapless sundress anyway. That's what she thought made Tom so happy,
the amount of boobage I had on display. Since her conversation with
Jenny Moore the night before she'd decided it's demeaning to women when
we show our breasts 'for men to stare at.' She's growing so fast. We're
both growing so fast.
Yes, the dress was low cut but no worse than Taylor's outfit last night
and we were in our own back yard, just the four of us. And the sun felt
so good on my pale flesh.
"I don't know what any of you are talking about," I said, waving away
the idea lightly with one hand.
I used that hand to brush the hair out of my face, another girly motion
I never thought about before and now do automatically. Rachael casually
ran a finger behind her ear, the same motion, tucking her hair back,
and I could finally see her face. We needed to work on that acne.
Tom was suddenly five feet away, staring down my dress I think. The sun
was just over his shoulder, making it impossible to look at his face.
When I looked down, there's his crotch again, right in front of me and
getting closer. I couldn't stop thinking about how it's in there,
hiding and waiting, and how big it gets. He seemed to know it makes me
uncomfortable so, being a jerk, he stood right next to me so that it
was inches from my face. The warm sun and the hand lightly stroking my
bare shoulders kept me from moving away.
He never said a word, just stood there with a big-assed grin that would
have pissed me off if I hadn't been the one to put it there. He was
definitely looking at my tits. It was weird, after last night, with the
girls right there and all.
"You look nice in that dress," he finally said, running his hand over
my hair.
Rachael snorted and he grinned even bigger and reached over to tussle
her hair the way I know she hates. His crotch was right in my face,
giving me a funny new feeling in my stomach.
"Gaaa! Get a room!" Rachael shouted, springing to her feet, throwing
her arms in the air and stalking off toward back door.
"Throw the ball," Susan shouted from the other side of the yard.
Tom turned in place and launched the ball into the sun. Susan ran to
get under it.
"You need to go talk to your daughter," I said softly.
"That's you're job, isn't it?"
He stepped away to catch the ball then stepped back to my side.
"I mean, I wouldn't know what to say," he muttered.
His arm snapped back suddenly and the ball shot toward Susan like a
rocket. She took it in the stomach with practiced ease and sailed it
back. I waited and watched. The sun was delicious and Rachael was in
the kitchen pretending to do something at the sink but was really
peeking out the window.
"You know you're better at that stuff," he said, leaning over me again.
His voice was beginning to take on a whiny tone, like maybe he needed a
nap. Fortunately I've dealt with pre-teen girls before. "Really, I
wouldn't know what to say," he added as he launched the ball again,
like that settled it.
I stood up, pulling the dress down slightly. Maybe it was too much
boobage on display, might as well use it, right? He didn't even pretend
to look elsewhere, even when the ball landed in his hands with a
'thunk.' I preened in the sun for a moment, allowing a good long look,
then I held out my naked arms.
"I'll take the ball," I said.
He pulled a sour look and danced in frustration, just like Susan does.
"You're not even going to help me?" he pleaded. "Please!"
I stepped closer and lifted the ball, using both hands so I wouldn't
embarrass myself. He is so big he blotted out the sun but his
frightened eyes made me want to laugh with joy.
"I just helped you recently," I whispered, batting my lashes.
"Remember?"
He licked his full lips, remembering the night before, realizing his
fate at last.
"But what do I say?" he asked in a pleading tone that gave me a thrill.
I stepped back, making room to throw and paused to consider. The ball
balanced at my shoulder, on my palm, too big to grip.
"Tell her you want to take her to a beauty salon but you don't know
which one to choose. Then sit back and shut your mouth," I said.
I launched the ball toward Susan but the sun was in my eyes and my
stupid boobs were in the way. While she scrambled around the yard I
stepped close to him finally and he let me inside his arms. That sour
look was even worse. He hated the salon idea, but it was going to
happen anyway and he knew it. I pressed all of me against him and slid
a furtive hand up his shorts, very close to the prize. He smiled
reluctantly and pressed back, ever hopeful. It was like I controlled
the whole world. I pushed hard on his stomach suddenly, forcing him to
stumble backward.
"You have to lead the girls, Tom," I said, lowering my voice, throwing
my hair back and attempting one of his dramatic poses."You're their
role model. You have to set a good example. I know you can handle the
responsibility."
He recognized one of his own speeches, his shoulders sagged in defeat
and his eyes rolled, so familiar. He turned away and stomped toward the
backdoor.
"You'll get better with practice," I called to him in a reassuring
tone.
That's when something hit me in the side of the head. Susan's laugh
echoed behind me.
+
It was terribly hot and we had no plans to leave the house so, after a
quick shower, I donned a super light sleeveless peach shell and some
shorts that, while small, did cover my butt completely. Tom wondered
around the house all day in those absurdly long baggy shorts that came
to the knee, without a shirt.
We ate dinner outside as the sun went down then watched a movie until
the girls couldn't keep their eyes open anymore. They were so worn out
I tucked them into bed a half hour early then hurried to the kitchen,
eager to get the dishwasher started and the kitchen cleaned so I could
enjoy the rest of the evening off. There was a new action movie on and
Tom hinted that he might be interested in joining me in the living
room. There was no way I was going into his bedroom again so soon.
He was at the sink, scrubbing a sauce pan like he was angry at it. The
muscles on his back rippled with the effort. Someone had cleared and
wiped the island. The dishwasher hung open, fully loaded, waiting to be
started.
"Oh! My! God! I can't believe it!" I mock screamed, imitating Rachael.
"Tom Hannover in my kitchen?! Washing dishes!"
His arm stopped scrubbing, he turned his head slowly and looked at me
through lowered brows.
"Well you're timing is perfect, Miss Smarty Pants."
He was smiling, a big happy smile. He dropped the pan, bumped the water
off with his forearm and reached for the hand towel. He'd gotten some
sun on the normally white parts of his upper body so that his back and
chest had a pink glow.
"Thank you for doing the dishes," I said.
He shrugged and dried his hands. "I can pitch in sometimes."
He waited for another smart comment, because he knew he had one coming.
More than once the girls and I had speculated on whether he knew how to
operate the dishwasher. But I took the high road.
"And thank you for talking to Rachael. She's really excited about the
salon. You did a good thing today."
"Well, I can't say I like the idea of all this makeup at her age but
thank you for giving me the push. They're just growing up so fast."
He shook his head in wonder and relaxed his butt against the sink,
exactly the spot where I spend so much of my time. He wiped his hands
one last time before throwing the towel onto the counter then he leaned
back and regarded me seriously.
"You do a great job every day, Morgan. We couldn't survive without
you."
I blushed. Really. Nothing could have made me happier than those words.
My face was so hot I wanted to look away but his smile held me. For a
moment, everything in the world was perfect.
That's when it hit me. Call it a moment of clarity. We were alone in my
kitchen. My girls were snug upstairs and there was Tom standing in my
spot, Beth's old place. Tomorrow I would stand in my spot to prepare
breakfast before driving my girls to school. At night I would stand
there happily again, before dinner while our girls did homework and
later while I cleaned up, listening to the sounds of my family coming
from our living room.
All I had do was keep my man happy, right? It didn't have to be in his
bedroom.
Those muscles of his, the ones that wrap around his middle and dive
into the waistband of his silly shorts, drew my eye like neon arrows
pointing the way. Bizarrely, I couldn't wait to follow them. His face
was blank, unsuspecting.
I pushed my hair back and unhooked a button. His eyebrows raised. I
took a step closer and undid another. My practical beige bra was
visible.
"What are you up to?" He asked with a sly grin.
I ran a finger down my chest, popped another button and took another
step.
"It occurs to me that we're in my kitchen now," I said.
"Yeah? So?" He replied in mock challenge.
"Well, for one thing, in my kitchen I make the rules."
I took the last steps to the open dishwasher, unhooked the rest of the
buttons and let the shell drop on the floor behind me. I bent at the
waist elaborately to close the dishwasher, giving him a good view. His
shorts appeared to bulge but I was more interested in his face. It was
beginning to dawn on him what was about to happen.
I stepped directly in front of him. He reached for my boobs but I
stepped away and parried his hands.
"No hands," I said sternly. "Put them on the counter."
He obeyed slowly with a skeptical look. I reached behind my back and
caught the bra clasp.
"I make the rules here," I said.
"OK," he said, licking his lips.
