The piece of paper on the counter was not unusual in itself; my house mate often left notes. Usually they were about things like "I bought laundry soap" or "dinner is in the fridge β heat on high for 3 minutes." In the 5 years we had shared this 3-bedroom house, she had never, ever had a request. That is exactly what made the note really catch my attention.
"Jake, as you know I travel a lot for my company, and clients travel to us. The stupid new girl they hired to replace Rebecca screwed up and double booked the company condo. Both clients are extremely important and we can't afford to lose either one. My boss requested I find an alternative place for the client coming alone. Unfortunately, this is the weekend of the big convention and all hotels are booked and then some! I would like to discuss with you the idea of allowing this client to stay in the guest bedroom here. It will only be for about one night. I'm in the area today so call me when you get this note. Thanks, Megan."
I called Megan and gave her my blessing. I reminded her I was going on a short fishing trip and wouldn't be back until Wednesday morning. She said that was fine, the client came in Wednesday morning and would not be at the house until Wednesday afternoon, after meetings. "I'll take care of everything, Jake, cleaning the room and such β thank you so much β she is a major VIP and I thought my boss was going to have an aneurysm over the condo mess!"
Wednesday morning, I did not get home from my trip until 10am. Exhausted, I barely had time to note the luggage on the four-poster bed in the guest room. My brain quickly calculated the dove gray and lavender dΓ©cor, but a very prominent, scrolled "LV" on the side of the large bag gave me pause. Great, I thought, a snob β only snobs have Louis Vitton luggage for a day long business trip. Shaking my head, I went to my own room and, stripping naked, fell asleep as soon as I was under the covers.
I woke, several hours later, to a faint humming noise. Opening one eye, I realized it was my cell phone, indicating I had a message. As I punched the numbers to retrieve the voice mail, I noted it was almost 6pm. A glance at the window confirmed I had slept most of the day β there was hardly any light left outside. Such is the life of the recently retired, as my message center reminded me to press one for new messages.
"Jake, I have to hostess a small dinner party tonight β the boss found out it's the other client's wife's birthday, and insisted we have a celebration. EYE ROLL. Can anything more happen?! Veronica β that's *my* guest β has been let in and showed her room and bathroom. She already ate dinner and assured me she is content to just relax and read and rest. Her flight leaves early in the morning, and the company car will pick her up. Thanks again β sorry, but my cell phone has to be turned off β see you Thursday. Oh, and Veronica can be a bit β different. Just feel her out, you'll be fine."
Megan is the only person I know who can convey more in a 30 second message than most people can in a 5 minute, face-to-face conversation. I could not ask for a better house mate, but her work kept her busy an average of 80 hours a week. I knew she was the head of the products division for her company, but she had requested I not ask her which one, due to privacy concerns. I figured it had to do with copyrights and trade secrets and always honored her wish.
I was about to go to the kitchen when I remembered I had a houseguest. I pulled on a pair of shorts and ran my fingers through my hair to tame it a little. The thermostat kept the house at a comfortable temperature, so I didn't bother with a shirt. I wouldn't have bothered with any clothing if I had been home alone β my motto is "everything's better naked!" Scratch that β frying bacon, naked β not a good idea. Suddenly, a BLT sounded like a good snack, and I left my bedroom to head down the hall.
As I approached the kitchen, I noticed a lady stretched out on the couch in the living room, reading a book. Clearing my throat to warn her of my presence, I decided I should introduce myself before appeasing my hunger. She turned her face toward me and smiled, standing up to greet me. We shook hands.
"I'm Jake, Megan's housemate. Nice to meet you β Veronica, is that right?" She had a warm hand and a firm grasp, and her nicely manicured nails were airbrushed β I could not distinguish the characters. Her hands were smooth on the back but I felt small calluses on her palm. They did not detract from her femininity at all, and I was suddenly glad I was wearing shorts.
She was perhaps an inch or two taller than me, with straight black hair that fell smoothly to her mid back. Her flawless complexion told me she was careful when she went into the sun β miles of creamy skin, just colored enough to look healthy. The contrast to the dark hair was an incredible visual β and then I looked into her eyes. Pewter, I thought β that is the only color I could liken those eyes to. Dark eyelashes, a perfectly straight nose and full lips set in a heart shaped face with high cheekbones β this was a beautiful woman, and I tried not to stare blatantly. She was wearing a black halter top and red cutoff sweat pants that showed off her curves β soft and beautiful, they just barely hinted at an underlying strength. She goes to the gym to stay in shape, not body-build, I thought. The pants ended just above her calves, showing smooth, curved skin and bare feet. Her feet β as pretty as the rest of her, I thought. I wondered what it would be like to tickle them a little, or feel them wrapped around my β
"It's very nice to meet you, Jake, thank you for allowing me to stay in your home." She released my hand and indicated the room with an open, careless gesture. "This is beautiful; I can see why Megan enjoys living here. Is very relaxing, no?" She had a slight accent that told me English was not her first language, although she spoke it nearly flawlessly. "I appreciate your hospitality and will try to be no trouble." A sincere smile revealed even, white teeth behind the full red lips. My brain was uncooperative, wondering what it would be like to kiss those lips, or have them wrapped around my β
"Uh" I stuttered "sure, no problem, glad it all worked out for you. I am going to fix myself a BLT, would you like one?" I turned away so she would not see my erection growing in my shorts. I moved toward the kitchen, and heard her footsteps fall in behind me on the carpet.
"What is this, BLT, you speak of? Forgive me, I am from a small region in Europe, my English is not β how you say β perfect. I don't always understand the American dialect. As long as BLT is not alcohol, I will try β I cannot drink before a flight, I get very bad" she paused for a moment "headache." She seated herself opposite the island cook top as I began pulling out ingredients.
I could not stop staring at her chest. Those gorgeous mounds made the thought of food flee completely from my mind, and I stumbled onto the first excuse I could think of. "Megan left me a message that you already ate. I am not really that hungry; and you shouldn't eat if you aren't, either." My eyes never left the shadow between her breasts, and I noticed that her nipples were hard underneath the halter top. I was very glad I was behind the stove as my cock got another rush.
Something in her eyes changed, and Veronica leaned forward, affording me a better view. "You like my breasts, yes?" I wanted to take a step back, but all I could do was nod my agreement. I felt like a bobble head doll, and about as intelligent, as she continued. She slowly untied the halter from her neck, and let the front fall off. One breast was hidden by her shining hair, the other stared at me directly, the pointed nipple even harder in the cool air. "You'd like to lick my nipples, wouldn't you?" Her voice was husky but there was an edge to it, something I couldn't quite identify. 'Let's go to my room, Jake, and make a memory of this night."
It was all I could do to not run gleefully down the hall. Instead, I reached for her hand with mine, and as we walked towards her room, she brushed the front of my shorts lightly with her hand. "Oh, I think you'd like a little more than just to see and touch my body." Her giggle had the same edge as we pressed our bodies together and stepped through the doorway of her room. She used one foot to kick the door shut, and I grabbed to lay her on the bed.
She danced gracefully out of my grasp and β none too gently β pushed me down until I was seated on the edge of the four poster bed. I noticed several things at once:
β’There were silk scarves draped at each corner of the bed
β’The large suitcase with LV on the side was on the floor, lid open
β’It was full of an incredible array of sex toys and magazines
