CHAPTER 8
Before dinnertime, I entered the parlor to find Angela mixing herself a cocktail at the bar. She smiled happily at me and lilted, "Would you like a drink before we dine?"
"Certainly!"
My hostess poured a splash of brandy into a snifter and handed it to me. She mixed a vodka and tonic for herself. "I'm glad I have you here alone," she hedged reservedly. "I have a favor to ask you... not as an employee, but as a friend."
I rested my elbow on the bar. "You can ask me anything, darling. To do anything and I would willingly do it, not because you are my friend, but because I adore you and would follow you to the ends of the earth."
Angie chuckled and touched her hand to my arm. "Don't be so eager to accept until you know what it is."
"All right. Tell me."
"I've been invited to a fundraising event tomorrow evening. I used to go to these affairs quite often when I was married to Charles. I rue having to go by myself, but it's for a good cause. I was wondering if you might want to attend with me as my date."
I smiled warmly at the woman and placed my hand on hers. "I would love to go with you."
"It's a formal affair, so we have to get all dolled up."
"That's fine. I brought one good dress with me. As a schoolteacher, I occasionally have to attend such functions from time to time. I promise I'll try my best not to embarrass you."
Angela expelled a sigh of relief. "You have no idea how much I appreciate this, Tina."
I gave her a knowing smile. "Darling, you'll appreciate it a whole lot more once you see me in a fancy gown. You'll be the envy of every fellah in the place with this hot eye-candy on your arm."
I turned from affixing my earring in the full-length mirror to the knock on the door. "Come in."
Sheila entered and stopped up short, her jaw dropping to her chest. "Dear God in heaven!" she gaped in awe.
I grinned at her. "I take it you like the dress?"
"Like it? My God, Tina! You look absolutely amazing!"
"Thanks!" I turned back to the mirror to attach my earring. I had to agree with her. I wore an ankle length red satin gown slit high up my left leg to bare a lot of thigh. It was a sleeveless backless number, the plunging front neckline offering plenty of cleavage. I had to wear cotton briefs underneath to keep my dick secured between my legs. It would totally destroy the sensuous image if my date were to give me a boner sometime during the evening. "I take it, you think your mother would approve?"
"For sure!"
"Not too slutty?"
"Nope. Just slutty enough."
I laughed and picked up my matching red clutch purse. "I suppose I deserve that."
Sheila smiled widely at me as I crossed to meet her. "Seriously, Tina, you look sensational."
"Thanks sweetie." I gave her a peck on the cheek. "I feel sensational."
"I came up to tell you mom is ready to go. She's waiting for you in the parlor."
"Great! Let's go down together."
Angela glanced up from mixing a cocktail at the bar as I entered the room. Her eyes lit up at the sight of me in the long red dress. "Holy Hannah!" she grinned happily. "You look spectacular!"
I sauntered over to the woman and gave her a big wet kiss on the lips. "That was exactly the reaction I was hoping for!" My eyes panned over her wardrobe. Angie wore a black pleated calf-length number with silver sequins over the bodice. Very stylish and quite sexy. "You look pretty hot yourself, honey-buns."
My date caressed her hand over my bare arm and smiled. "When you said you were to be my eye-candy this evening, you weren't kidding. I won't be able to take my eyes off you!"
I giggled and said, "Just so long as you can't keep your hands off me either!"
Angela set another glass on the bar and began mixing me a drink. "We have time for a cocktail before we go. I called a cab for us. It should be here in about 20 minutes. I didn't want to drive with high heels on."
"Very sensible."
The fundraiser event was surprisingly entertaining. They had a live band and a slideshow presentation of how the money benefited needy children. I always had a soft spot in my heart for kids anyway so I resonated with the cause. And they had an open bar, which was always a plus. Angela Tate was in good spirits. She not only enjoyed my company but also appreciated my sumptuous wardrobe. More than a few times I caught her staring at me. I smiled warmly and held her hand under the table. It turned out to be a fun evening after all.
Angie and I wandered over to the makeshift bar to order a couple of cocktails from the young blonde lady in a white long sleeve blouse and black vest. Two young fellows joined us. They were handsome boys in their early twenties. "Good evening, ladies," one smiled with an adorable grin. "May I say you look fabulous this evening."
"Yes, you may!" I beamed brightly. A lady never minds receiving compliments from handsome lads. My partner was not as impressed by their overt display of attention. We chatted amicably about nothing in particular, then left them alone to return to our table.
I touched up my eye makeup in the bathroom next to Angie. "Those two young guys seemed to be into us," I commented casually.
My friend expelled her breath in a huff. "I've seen their types before. Eager young executives looking to control my bank account. When you become a wealthy widow, they seem to come out of the woodwork like vultures. Some give the impression they want to be your personal advisor or your playmate companion. All they want in the end is my money."
"You don't think that way about me, do you?"
Angie looked at me. "What do you mean?"
"That I'm only interested in you for your money."
"Of course not, darling. I know you want to be with me out of pure friendship. You have no other motives as far as I can see."
"To be truthful, the incredible sex is a significant factor."
Angie laughed. "Well, there is that."
I turned to her. "I would be with you always, Angela, no matter what. You don't have to pay me to teach your daughter. I don't care a whit about money and never will. I want to spend time with you because I genuinely love you."
She smiled warmly and pressed her cheek to my face so as not to disturb our makeup. "I know that, Tina. I love you too. I know that money will never be a consideration between us."
"Good. Now let's go have a dance with those cute young studs and make their night!"
The fundraiser was winding down and the guests began to leave. We stepped out of the building together into the cool evening air. Angela moved toward a waiting taxi cab and I stopped her with my hand on her arm. "Are you in any big hurry to go home?"
She glanced at me with a quizzical look. "Not really. Why?"
I nodded to a white horse-drawn carriage parked down the block. "This would be a perfect evening for a ride around town."
Angie's eyes twinkled with delight as we walked arm in arm toward the carriage. "I love it when you are so spontaneous!"
The carriage was white with red velvet interior and open like the ones they use for British Royal Weddings and pulled by a white horse with a yellow mane. A man in a black coat with tails and a tall top hat hopped down from his perch at the front of the carriage and offered us a hand up. Angie and I climbed into the coach and covered our laps with a woolen blanket. The man alit onto his seat and prodded the steed to begin.
My partner slipped her arm through my elbow and beamed brightly. "You are such a romantic!"
I smiled at her. "I want to be romantic for you, darling. I want to cuddle with you in front of a crackling fire, neck with you in the back row of a movie theater, and hold your hand as we watch an orange and red sunset. I want to keep our relationship fun and fresh."
"It always is with you, my love."
It was late by the time the taxi delivered us to our home. Angie led the way into the darkened house. "Are you in any hurry to go to bed?" she asked quietly.
"Not really. Why?"
"I have something I want to show you." She led the way into the library and snapped on a single lamp. "Have a seat on the couch."
"Okay," I giggled with amusement. "You certainly are being secretive tonight."
"Merely piquing your interest." She crossed to the fireplace and turned a knob on the side by the mantle. Instantly, blue and yellow flames ignited over the artificial logs in the hearth.
I laughed with glee. "Aren't you the romantic one!"
Angela moved to me and dropped to her knees at my feet. "I want to keep our relationship fun and fresh."
The woman lifted the front of my dress and shifted it to one side, the slit up my thigh baring my legs to the crotch. "Oh honey," I grinned. "You are so erotic."
