Monday was a holiday and I had been doing more than a little celebrating of my good luck over the weekend so, as usual, I was late for work on Tuesday.
Right away my boss started in, "Blah, Blah, Blah... You need to be more responsible for your actions... Blah, Blah, Blah... This is a business and we have scheduled commitments... Blah, Blah, Blah... There are lots of people who would love to have your job... Blah, Blah, Blah..."
There was a lot of other shit too. It ended up by me telling him to go fuck himself before I stormed out of his office; slamming the door so hard I shattered the glass. I thought I controlled myself pretty well because, although I was tempted, I didn't knock him on his ass.
After lunch and three martinis, I cooled down a little and went back to the office. I found the contents of my desk in a big cardboard box entrusted to the security guard in the lobby along with an envelop containing a check for unused vacation and sick time, two weeks pay in lieu of notice and 3 months severance pay. It was all very neat and in accordance with company policy when they fire your ass. There was also a note telling me that I was not welcome in the building and that I should contact the human resources department by telephone about what to do with my 401k account.
Well, screw them. I had my own resources and, as an electrical engineer with an advanced degreed, I could get a job almost anywhere if I needed it. It was well after midnight when I left my favorite watering hole and staggered home to bed.
It was almost noon the next day when I awoke with a pounding headache and a raging hard on. On my way to the bathroom, I noticed that my alarm clock/radio was on the floor by the far wall, hopelessly smashed to pieces. There was a substantial gouge in the plaster just above it. I wondered how that happened? I was think it was OK when I went to bed last night.
I was just stepping out of the shower and beginning to care whether I lived or died when the phone rang.
"Huh?"
"Mr. Rodgers?"
"Oh God, I think so, yeah I am pretty sure it is."
"This is Shelly, Shelly Manilli from human resources. Do you remember me?"
Boy did I remember her, Rachel Manilli or Shelly Manilli, as she was known in the office. Every single man (and many of the married ones) lusted after her and her unspoken promise of ecstasy. She was tall, with hair so black that it had blue flashes in the right light, almost like a raven. Her Italian heritage had given her big breasts fading down to a small waist, swelling out to sensual hips and beautiful, shapely legs that went all the way from her ass to the floor. Probably her most outstanding feature was the whiteness of her skin and the contrast between it and her dark eyes and naturally red lips.
"Hi Shelly, sure I remember you. Didn't I ask you for a date a couple of weeks ago?"
"Yes, I'm sorry I had to turn you down but you know the company policy about dating co-workers."
"Yeah, sure. What can I do for you?"
"I was calling about your 401k. What do you want to do with it?"
My erection had begun to subside but her sultry voice was not being kind to it, especially standing there in the nude, dripping water on the carpet.
"I'll have to talk to my broker and get back to you."
She sounded a little disappointed when she whispered, "Oh, OK thanks."
"Er... Shelly? Since Scott and Associates no longer employ me, what about dinner some time?'
There was a twinkle with a world of promise in her voice when she answered. "Why, I think I would like that, Mr. Rodgers."
"Call me Jim. I have to go out of town later today on some personal business and I wont be back until late tomorrow, how about Friday?"
"Sure."
She gave me her address and I arranged to pick her up at 7PM Friday.
Two minutes later the phone rang again.
"Yeah?"
"Mr. Rogers, er, Jim, it's Shelly again. Do you like Italian?"
"Sure."
"Then, I have a better idea. Why don't you pick up some wine and I will make us a nice spaghetti dinner. I have a couple of new movies on DVD. About 6:30?"
"I'll be there with bells on." Bells should be easy, I already had a hard on.
I was very busy the rest of the week with lots of very important things, but every now and again the vision of Shelly, her beautiful face, dynamite figure, long hair and big boobs combined with the thickening of my dick interrupted my chain of thought. After my business on Friday afternoon, I couldn't wait for Friday night.
On the agreed date and at the appointed time, I presented myself at her apartment, freshly bathed and shaven, wearing new shoes, a very expensive sport shirt, and the latest slacks. Under my alarm was a two-liter bottle of the best Chianti our local liquor store had to offer. As an afterthought, I had added a nice bottle of 25-year-old port.
When she answered the door I was surprised to see, not the sophisticated, dark eyed, sultry beauty from the office but a beautiful, young, virginal girl that I hardly recognized. Her long black hair was done up in a careless sweep, she was barefoot and wearing a short cotton dress with an apron. There was a blemish of flour on her forehead and her hands. She was beautiful but looked as if something was wrong.
"Come in, come in. Things got out of hand and I am running way behind. I thought I would have a chance to change before you got here but my sauce burned and I don't know what I am going to do now." She was almost crying.
There was a sound from the kitchen and she bolted to answer it. I followed her and by the time I got there she was standing in front of the open oven door and smoke was bellowing out of it. She was waving her arms, trying to dispel the smoke and bawling. I set the wine on the counter and took her into my arms.
I held this soft creature, inhaling her perfume while the sobs wracked her body. Bit by bit, the weeping diminished while I held her tight, still savoring the feeling of her suppleness against my chest. I did my best to keep my swollen dick from jabbing her in the belly.
There were still tears in her eyes when she pulled back, looked up at me and said, "Would you mind if we just ordered some Pizza and forgot about my mess?"
I said OK and reluctantly released her while she got the pizza parlor on the phone. She ordered, I poured us both a glass of wine and she went to change.
When she came out of the bedroom it was obviously she had just bathed. She smelling fresh and womanly, but most of her physical charms were hidden by the vast muumuu like garment that enveloped her.
"I'm sorry about dinner, maybe I can make it up to you some way."
