There is no sex in this story. Sorry.
*
My name is Jolene Brenner, Jojo to my friends, and I am on a quest. I am looking for the perfect mate but my approach is anything but typical. I have figured out that the standard method used by almost all women just doesn't work. The most important factor to be considered in a relationship is good sex. I feel that most women compromised in this area and marry a guy even though the sex isn't that great and figured it will get better as the marriage progresses. This does not make sense to me. My approach is to find a guy that can provide me with great sex first and then the marriage will be strong from the start. I have also discovered another problem, that to me, size matters.
In order to carry on my quest I usually go out several times a week and seek qualified candidates. This requires me to have sex and lots of it. Most guys didn't come close to my size requirement. I have had been on my search for almost four years and had never in that time been with the same man twice. It is difficult trying to weed out the less qualified guys up front and I find myself having to travel farther and farther to find fresh meat. I am beginning to think it is all in vain.
I keep myself in good shape, working out several times a week. I am well groomed, look good and am proud of it. My amber hair and dark eyes give me an exotic glow. I have small but firm breasts and rounded hips, not skinny but not chunky. I have a good job at Gilbert Pneumatics filling out pick lists for custom air processing equipment.
The girls who work with me enjoy pumping me for all the juicy details about my dates or interviews, as they called them. Shirley, who works in the personnel office, always gives me the heads up on new hires in the company so I can check them out. This week there was a new draftsman in the second floor design office. This was also the start of a new chapter in my search for the perfect man.
After lunch I wandered up stairs and scanned the work area looking for a new face. The new hire was over in the corner along the back wall. He was fairly large but not heavy set, wore glasses and had a full head of hair. Although he was not particularly handsome he definitely was not ugly.
With confidence and a little swagger I walked up to his desk. "HI, my names Jolene and I work downstairs in engineering. I wanted to welcome you to the company and was wondering if you would like to go out for supper Friday night."
That was direct and to the point. It almost always worked.
I smiled knowing a positive reply was sure to follow.
"Sorry, I appreciate the offer but I really am not interested."
I was taken back a little by the unexpected response. I was at a loss for words and felt a tad uncomfortable. This guy wasn't that great. It wasn't like he had his choice of girls and I had made it very easy for him.
"We don't have to go to eat, we can do something else if you would like."
"Thanks anyhow, but seriously I would rather not go out at this time."
"Is there something wrong with me or are you gay?"
"Neither. It is just that I am new to the area and the company and I would like to get more familiar with the situation before I start socializing."
"I am sorry if I was rushing you into something. I assure you I was not trying to get you to commit to anything. It was just a simple date I was suggesting. I'll wait a couple days for you to get settled in and maybe we can discuss it then. OK?"
Greg Stevens leaned back in his drafting chair and sort of rocked back and forth a little. He looked down and then glanced up and replied, "OK, come see me Friday morning and I'll let you know what I decide. I can't promise anything but I will consider it."
I turned and as I walked away said, "Thanks, I'll see you Friday morning."
I spent the rest of the day stewing about this little insignificant conversation. I was a little miffed at his attitude. I was a player and didn't like being played by somebody else, especially a big, nerdy draftsman. I would have to wait and play it by ear.
Friday came and I was ready. I had played this moment over and over in my head to make sure I would get it right. Before I could do anything I found a small folded piece of paper on my desk. It was carefully printed in draftsman style lettering. "I'll pick you up at your place at 7PM. Wear jeans and comfortable shoes. I know the address. Greg." This was supposed to be my play and the SOB took the lead away from me again. The end result was what I wanted but I was planning on getting to that point on my actions not his. He was making me feel a little uncomfortable and I didn't like it. I had not expected the air of confidence that he reeked of.
Tonight would be a good time to get him straightened out.
It was 7PM and I was ready with jeans, sneaks and a cotton blouse. I dropped two condoms in my bag just as the bell rang, in case he earned a second chance at qualifying. He was driving a jeep, no top, floor mats, or radio. Sheepskins were thrown over the seats to sit on. The evening was off to a great start. Conversation during the drive was not possible because of the wind and traffic noise. It was just a short drive to Dreamland Barbecue, a rustic place with great food and good size portions. It appears we were going to have a functional evening and not a romantic one, which was OK with me.
Dreamland didn't really have a menu. You had a choice of ribs, pork sandwich or beef sandwich. That was it. They only had three side dishes: beans, coleslaw or fries. I really didn't have a preference so I told him to order for both of us. He ordered a whole slab of ribs to start and two Foster longnecks. I took advantage of the short lull to probe him a little.
"Why did you decide to go?"
He smiled a little and replied, "Does it matter."
"Your damn right it does."
"I talked to some of the guys in the department and they all recommend that I should go. They said I would have a good time and I would enjoy myself."
