Beth lived alone in a cabin on top of a large hill in a small town in Tennessee. She had recently lost her husband in a tragic logging accident. She locked herself away from the world after that, and refused to have anything to do with family or friends.
In the dark of a stormy night she sat reading in bed when a large strike of lighting sent white light through out the house, then the power went out.
"Damn," she said as she fumbled around the bedside stand looking for the flashlight she had placed there for just incase this had happened.
Going down stairs Beth headed for the kitchen to retrieve the candles she had set out. Lighting a few candles around downstairs she heard a sharp knock at the door.
"Who in the hell can that be," she said as she walked towards the door. Opening the door with a candle in one hand the light fell across the face of the most handsome man she had seen in a long time.
"Can I help you," she said in a tone that probably sounded to snotty.
"Yes ma'am," in a clearly masculine voice, he said he had been driving down the road when a bolt of lightning hit a tree and sent him steering his car off the road to avoid it.
"Do you have a phone I could use," he said.
"The power is out," she said in a matter of fact tone of voice.
"May I come in out of the rain then until the power comes on, I promise not to put you to any inconvenience," his voice so very much masculine.
She moved away from the door, "Alright, but just until then."
He stepped across room to stand at the back of the couch; she shut the door and walked towards the kitchen.
He cleared his throat and said, "My names Hugh Jasper."
"My names Beth Caldwell, can I get you towel or something?"
"Yes that would be great, it's nice to meet you Beth, thank you for allowing me to wait for the storm to pass," he said as he followed her to the kitchen. Do you live here alone?
"Yes" she said turning to hand him the towel she had picked up off of the dryer. Not realizing he was so close she bumped right into him and instinctively he put his arms around her to keep her from falling.
He looked down into her face and smiled, she pulled away from him quickly and he moved away from her, "I'm sorry."
"No, it's okay. I am just not used to people being here. I haven't had anyone in the house for a long time.
"Why," he said stepping to the cabinet and using the towel to dry his hair.
"It's a long story, not one I am interested in telling a complete stranger," she said as she stormed across the kitchen floor heading to the living room.
Hugh stared at her as she crossed the room and wondered why a beautiful woman as her would want to seclude herself away, way up here.
He thought to himself, she was beautiful too, she had short brown hair, green eyes, a nice firm rounded ass, and her breast were something he would love to put his mouth to. He shook those thoughts off as he followed behind her to the living room, where she was setting up to light the fire in the fireplace.
Beth turned and noticed that he had followed her into the living room, returning to lighting the fire in the fireplace. Though she wasn't cold it gave her something to do other than to stare at this man who had invaded her home. His stark black hair was nicely kept; he had a goatee, brown eyes, tall and well built. He looked as though he did construction or some other outdoor work.
Beth hadn't had thoughts like these since before her husband died, and she was a little unnerved that she could be having them here in their home.
After starting the fire Beth sat down on the floor beside the fireplace. She looked over to see that Hugh had moved to stand beside her, then bending down he sat opposite of her on the floor.
She looked away into the fire, trying to stop the fire that was trying to start within her. He spoke first.
"Why is a beautiful woman such as you living here alone," he said in a pleading voice.
"My husband died a year ago, I haven't wanted to be around people, it's just been too hard," she said as a lone tear fell down her cheek.
He reached up and wiped the tear from her eye, she didn't pull away this time, and he began to caress her cheek.
"It's okay Beth, you're not alone anymore. You can lean on me for a while if you would like. I have big shoulders for you to cry on if you need them," he said as he sat up demonstrating their broadness.
She smiled at this, and he returned her smile.
"See that wasn't so hard," he said looking down into her green eyes.
"What wasn't," she returned.
"Smiling," he said with a half laugh to his voice.
She felt more as ease with his presence then; they sat there and talked for a long while. She learned that he was on his way to town to look for a place to live. He was moving here from Texas, he was starting a new job in Nashville on Monday, but he hated living in the city. So he decided to find a small town within driving distance and find a home there.
He would drive back and forth each day, which he didn't mind at all. She learned that he lived in Fort Worth from the time he was a teenager, went to Texas A & M. He graduated last year and had found a good job working for an engineering firm in Nashville.
Beth stood up and went into the kitchen, opening the refrigerator she looked for something to eat. Taking out some eggs, milk, cheese, onions she prepared to make omelets for them both.
He sat looking at her from his place on the floor, as she moved around the kitchen. He noted that sway she had in her hips, her nightshirt that she was wearing would ride up as she reached for the plates and cups from the cabinet. He could see the shape of her rounded ass cheeks just below the hem of the shirt, and her thick thighs, which tapered down to shapely calves. He was beginning to get rather uncomfortable sitting there watching her, so he tried to get his mind on other things than this beauty who was fast making his cock hard in his pants.
"Need any help in there," he called.
"No, nearly finished. Would you like juice, soda, or milk with it?"
"Juice would be fine, thanks," he said in return.
She walked across the room with a tray sitting it down on the ledge of the fireplace, we sat there and ate and talked.
She was nervously thinking to herself what he could be thinking about, that seemed strange to her. She just met this man, he came stumbling out of the rain, and yet after she began talking with him it was like they had known each other for a long time. She felt very at ease with him, his dark eyes burrowed into her, and she was becoming vastly aware of the wetness forming between her legs.
