Intro: The exploits of a man whose given name fit him perfectly, Randy, and he certainly was that. He was a high-school history teacher and coach until he hit the lottery and retired early at 52. While he was not averse to returning flirtatious quips from the girls in his classes, he did avoid giving in to the urge, telling the more enticing of them to, "come see me after you graduate." Some did, but these stories deal with his life after hitting it big and building two houses; one along a river bluff 45 miles inland from the Atlantic Ocean and another on a secluded portion of the Northern Outer Banks, both equipped with playrooms. And he still had over a hundred million to spare. All characters are 18+ years of age. All stories can stand alone, but reading the series gives added insights and descriptions as it unfolds.
Synopsis: Halley returns for NYE
December, 2017 - River House
It was Christmas Eve. Another get-together of the extended family. All the second or third spouses; kids, step-kids, and adopted kids; grandkids and great grandkids had made the pilgramage and gathered. It had grown too big for Randy's parents' home, so it was a good thing his brother had a big house. Why? Because that kept anyone from suggesting they hold it at his house. Other than a bowl of green M&Ms, he didn't even decorate, much less put up a tree.
Randy's step-grand nieces, Halley and her sister Gabbie had commandeered the fireplace hearth and keep giggling while stealing glances in Randy's direction as he sat across the room in a wingback chair. This was the house where he had caught Halley trying to have sex with her boyfriend and the journey of their relationship had begun. As that thought entered his head, he turned and pointedly looked down the hallway to the bedroom where he had burst in on them. Halley caught the gesture and the meaning and dipped her head in acknowledgment, a thin smile on her face.
After the meal, when it was time to open presents, Gabbie came and sat on a footstool beside him. The younger children delivered the presents after being instruced by those slightly older to whom to make the delivery. Only after the area around the tree was bare, could they delve into their pile of colorful boxes. In the frenzy of it all, a hiss escaped Gabbie's lips as she watched her older sister open a box with some ankle boots.
"Problem?" Randy asked her.
She answered without looking at him, "No, not really a problem, it's just that Halley is so tall. She doesn't need boots. I need boots."
"Being short has its advantages Gabbie," he whispered to her.
She turned to him, "How's that?"
"Well, if you're short, it's easier for your boyfriend to pick you up and play with you."
Her eyes widen and then a tiny smile came over her face, along with a little pink in her cheeks.
Later, as things began to wind down, Halley came beside him for the first time that night as he was in the kitchen putting sugar in a cup of coffee and whispered covertly.
"We on?"
"Yes. I'm making dinner, dress up," he murmured back.
She deftly swung her ass sideways and bumped her hip into his, almost making him spill his coffee, "Rest up."

New Year's Eve was on a Saturday and over the next week they worked out by text that she would stay with him that night before she had to head back to college and her two jobs in Savannah on Sunday.
Randy made dinner for them, a lentil soup with Italian sausage to start, followed by lobster ravioli in a white cream sauce and topped by diced tomatoes. He had a bottle of Chardonnay chilled. Then he put on a charcoal gray pinstriped suit with a black shirt and red tie and sat to await her arrival.
He had compiled a playlist that consisted of a host of classical romantic music to set the mood and hit the play button just before seven when the security system alerted him that someone had entered the open gate. He hit the switch to close it and went to the front door.
As she parked the car, he opened the door and was greeted by a vision. She wore a long, off-white evening gown and carried an overnight bag. The dress plunged into a V, front and back, the back stopping just above her tailbone, the front just above her navel. Halley's 32-Cs filled it out nicely and the material was very clingy, highlighting the shape of her thighs and ass. On the sides it also plunged, to the top of her hip bone and was held together by three evenly spaced strands of silver chain.
"Damn woman, I hope you didn't pay a lot for that dress 'cause I may just rip it off you."
She came close, still holding her bag, and Randy's hands found the bare skin just above her hips. "Better not 'cause I did. This is the first time I can ever remember seeing you in a suit. You should wear one more often," and she kissed him briefly on the lips.
She began to pull away and he held her there, "How much?"
"I bought it with some of the money you slipped into my account. Yeah, I know." Randy tried not to smile and failed. He had been secretly depositing a thousand dollars a month into her checking account. "It cost $450, and the only reason I bought it was to wear it for you."
He was both surprised and happy that she had noticed the money. It meant she kept up with her finances. Still, he felt the need to apologize. "Halley, I just wanted you to have some walking around money since you won't let me help with your schooling. I'm sorry if you feel it was out of line."
"I know why you do it and it's okay. You sticking to not paying for my college is the only reason I haven't called you up and cussed you out," and she gave him a sincere smile to emphasize the point. "Like I told you, I don't do much walking around, so I spend it on food and clothes, to wear for you. Just don't put more than a thousand a month in there, okay."
"Yes ma'am," he told her somberly, then changed the subject, "I hope you're hungry, 'cause dinner's ready."
"I am. I've been looking forward to it. Just let me put my bag in your room and I'll meet you in the kitchen," and she turned from his embrace towards his office door.
"We're eating in the dining room."
Halley turned halfway back to him and raised her eyebrows, "Goin' all out, are we?"
Randy just laughed and waved her off as he turned to go and fix their plates. As he set the food on the table, then lit the candelabra, he thought about how he had fucked more on his dining room table than he had eaten on it and shook his head sardonically.
Halley made her way back and he pulled out a chair for her. Most of the lights in the house were off, with only the dim lighting from the wall sconces and the three white candles. Still, he had enough light to see Halley as she gave him peeks of her tits at the table. The V on the front of her dress was very loose, especially when she bent her neck to eat some of the soup. As they ate by candlelight on paper plates and plastic utensils, he could easily see the curve of the underside of her right breast.
He explained to her what she was eating, as Halley ate and she told him that he had outdone himself. Another minute or two passed and then she made another declaration.
"This is strange."
"Why's that?" Randy inquired, thinking some smart-assed comment was coming about the food.
She picked up her plate and set it down, then held up her plastic fork, "This."
"Oh, I thought you meant the dinner," and he held up his own plastic spoon, "It's so we don't have to wash dishes after the meal."
She broke into a grin then, her eyes twinkling. "Oh. Good. I like the way you think."
They continued to eat, and he asked what she and her sister Gabbie were giggling about at Christmas.
"Oh that," and she patted her mouth with her paper napkin. "Gabbie kept making comments about how fine you looked and wondered why you were married. It was all I could do not to say something about our arrangement, or even your whoring around, so I just tried to play it off and we got to giggling."
Randy laughed, "Well, I guess our arrangement, as you call it, can lead to some interesting conversations."
"Yeah, well, I try to avoid those as much a possible."
He decided not to pursue her reply.
They finished their meal and Halley complimented him again on the meal as they trashed their plates and made their way to the living room, holding hands as they went.
There was not a lot of talk, as they sat on the couch and listened to the music he had chosen. It was enough to be in each other's presence again for the moment. Occasionally she would ask about a song and he would explain to her its provenance. Beyond that they snuggled in each other's arms, and watched the moon rise in the eastern sky as the music played in the background. Each of them knew, as they sat there and time ticked away, that the desire, the want, the need, was slowly building inside of them. It was palpable.
At eleven-twenty, he got up to get them each a bottle of water and when he returned, he made a big production of taking one of the little blue pills in front of her.
Laughing, she reached down to the coffee table and took a handful of the green coated candy that was in a glass dish, "This will do for me," and she popped two in her mouth. "By the way, how do you always have all green, peanut M&Ms at Christmas?"
Still standing, he told her matter-of-factly, "Halley, when you have money it's amazing what you can get if you are willing to pay for it."
She nodded, then paused and took a swallow of water before replying, "That's one reason I won't let you pay for any of my schooling. I'm more than content being your slut, but I have no desire to be your paid whore."
He thought again about the thousand dollars he deposited into her account every month, but didn't bring it up and then she continued, "By the way, I was wondering, just how much money do you have?"
"Last time I added it all up, it was around a hundred million in cash, Give or take. Another twenty-five invested in the market and doing well and another twenty or so invested in real estate."
She was not shocked as she knew there was a lot, but she did wonder about a couple of aspects.
