That night I woke up several times, I guess due to the fact Beth was sleeping so close to me. I had not shared a bed with anyone since Susan's death. Around four thirty in the morning I was awakened again. I raised up on one elbow and looked at Beth sleeping. She was absolutely angelic, a very content look on her face. I watched her for what must have been about an hour, until finally I got up and went into the kitchen. I decided to cook her breakfast and surprise her. Halfway through the preparation, she came in rubbing her eyes."Something smells good." , she said with a smile."I was fixing you breakfast in bed.", I replied."Oh how sweet, but since I am up, I will join you here."We ate breakfast, cleaned up the kitchen and got dressed. Even though it was Saturday, Beth had to go to her office for a few hours. I had errands to run as well. We agreed to meet up later in the day.The day passed quickly and around four in the afternoon Beth called me. She told me she had gotten home,
When we were seated at the table, Jennifer was given the seat next to me. Not a coincidence I thought to myself. As we ate , someone asked my mother in law where Beth was. She replied that her and Lance would be joining us a bit later. I was not at all happy to hear that and figured to eat quickly and take my exit as soon as I could. Last thing I wanted to do was see them together. I still had no idea what was going on with them. I was somewhat relieved when my mother in law added that Lance was trying to reconcile but Beth was being very reluctant about it.About thirty minutes later Lance and Beth arrived together. As they said their hello's, I noticed Beth eyeing up Jennifer sitting next to me. They took their plates and sat down to eat. The conversation picked up where it left off and our meal moved along. Finally my mother in law dropped the bomb."Jeff, I was telling Jennifer that you rarely get out and do anything. She basically said she was in the same boat. That her work kept
I laid on the sofa that night so frustrated at myself for letting things get this chaotic. how could i allow myself to fall in love with beth ?i couldn't get the sight of her and lance out of my head. i wanted to go over there and drag him out of the house and beat the crap out of him. but , from where i was sitting it certainly appeared beth was co-operating fully. suddenly i knew i was going to be sick. i jumped up and ran to the bathroom, barely getting there in time.I was restless all that night and awoke early the next morning. as i opened my eyes, my mind immediately went to work. did lance spend the night ? i think what really bothered me the most, was that beth had not even tried to contact me and try to explain. i got dressed and left for work.Christmas was saturday, we were off on friday , which was christmas eve. jennifer's office party was thursday night at one of the five star restaurants in the french quarter. i left work early that thursday to make sure i was ready o
Being off on Christmas Eve, it gave me a chance to get the entire house cleaned and all the laundry done. I went to the market, bought groceries and returned home. I was putting away the groceries when the phone rang. It was Beth. I just didn't have the heart to answer it. I let voice mail pick it up and finished putting away the groceries. When I was done, I sat in my chair and listened to the message."Hey Jeff, its me, I.. I just wanted to wish you a Merry Christmas. I know its not what you ... I mean…..I was hoping…..Oh hell, take care, talk to you later.", was the message.Funny, I thought. We went from being so close, to an unsigned letter and a strained voice mail in a few months. Life changes so fast sometimes, you can't keep up. That night I did a lot of thinking about Beth. As hard as it was to accept, it would be extremely difficult to be with Beth. I had no clue how the family would react, then I know Lance would be as difficult as he could be. Perhaps, this is for the bes
The week passed quickly, Jen and I talked several times during the week finalizing arrangements for the party. Even though I had not talked to Beth in several weeks, I did notice Lance had moved back home. I tried to put it out of my mind, it was beyond my control.We arrived at the party about nine o'clock that night and Jen introduced to me to all of her friends. Several I had met previously at the office party for Christmas. Finally Jen introduced me to Carrie, her best friend, the hostess of the party."Ahhhhh, so your Jeff.", she said, extending her hand."Is that a good or bad Ahhhhhh.", I replied, shaking her hand."Oh, it's a good Ahhhh, trust me.", she answered with a smile and a wink.We talked for a while, then she excused herself to mingle with her other guests. The night moved along well and the food, music and company were all good. I guess it was about thirty minutes to midnight when Carrie pulled me aside privately."Jeff, you make sure you kiss my best friend properly
We moved down the hall into the master bath, dripping water in puddles as we went. She pulled my jersey off over her head in one movement, dropping it to the floor. I pulled her close to me , kissing her again. I reached around and unhooked her bra. She stepped back and let it fall to the floor exposing her firm ample breasts. With both hands she reached down and slid her panties down her legs to the floor and stepped out of them. She moved over to the bed, laid down on her back motioning for me to join her. I pushed my shorts down to the floor and pull my shirt over my head. I climbed over her supporting my weight on my arms. I kissed her once again, my tongue easing into her mouth to meet hers. She reached between us, and wrapped her hand around my rigid cock. I knew that it was not going to take much in the way of stimulation to get me off. I wanted to make sure she was completely satisfied before I had my orgasm."Oh God, this feels so good.", she whispered in my ear, "Let me make
I'm not sure how long I had been sleeping when I opened my eyes and tried to adjust them to the darkness in the room. I turned and looked over at Jennifer, she was still deep in the sleep. But somehow, I could not shake the feeling that someone else was in the room watching us. I Looked toward to window and saw the drapes move slightly. I laid there for several moments, not noticing anything else so I must have started to drift off, I'm not sure, but I thought I heard Susan's voice softly in my ear . " Sleep my love."Jennifer was in the mist of a very big government fraud trial, so our time together was limited over the next few months. We did get together once or twice a week for dinner or a movie. Jen was so easy to get along with and though despite our age differences she made me feel like a young man. We both kept ourselves busy with our prospective jobs, making time for each other when we could.On one of my normal Sunday dinners to my in laws, Jen's parents were once again pres
Jennifer and I were becoming more and more at ease with each other. It seemed the more time I spent with her, the more attracted to her I had become. Jennifer's birthday was July 3rd, and I was hoping to do something special for her. I had decided the weekend before her party , I would take Jen, her Mom and Dad, all out to eat. The meal was great success and everyone had a great time.A few days later, it was time for me to renew my health club membership, so as I went into the trainer's office to pay, I pulled put my wallet. I found my credit card and handed it to the young lady and as I was waiting, I happened to thumb through my wallet. I reached in and pulled out the gloss back business card that said only "Raine", with a phone number. I had held on to that card for over a year, don't ask me why. As looked at the card, I suddenly had an idea.Two days later I called my friend Riley who owned the club that Beth, Lance and I had went to the previous New Year's Eve. I called himup a
