"The kids are at Kyle's," my wife said, picking up the keys and heading out of the door. "Can you pick them up? I have to go back to the office."
Kyle's, okay. A couple of blocks away. I left the car in the drive and walked over. It was a warm day, typical for Sacramento in June, and I was wearing my usual summer rig of shorts and a Hawaiian shirt.
Kyle's mom answered the door.
"Uh, hi," she said. "My husband just took them downtown to get an ice cream. They'll be a while."
"Oh, well..." I hesitated. She smiled and opened the door wider. "Come in anyway." She offered me her hand. I took it. Her fingers were long and cool.
"I'm Lisa. Drink?"
"Hugh...Sure."
I'd met Kyle's mom...Lisa... a couple of times at school events and kids' parties. She was medium height, shoulder length black hair tied back. Late thirties, I would guess, but in nice shape: slim, smallish boobs, shapely ass. Especially as this afternoon she was wearing some jeans shorts and an old t shirt. Too loose to be Daisy Dukes, but fitting enough to look nice. I could imagine a firm, compact body under that shirt.
She turned to walk to the kitchen and threw a smile over her shoulder as she did so. I admired her ass as she walked away. Interesting, I thought.
There was a bar counter between the kitchen and the rest of the room, which opened onto the patio. She was standing by the bar, holding a bottle of margarita mix. "There's some ice tea, too..."
"A margarita is just fine."
We chatted as she finished mixing the drinks and handed me one. Our fingers overlapped again. I perched myself on a barstool and she leaned on the counter next to me. We got to talking about fitness and workouts. She was standing close to me, the air thick with tension; I could smell her hair. She put a fingernail lightly on my knee, and traced the muscle a few inches up my thigh. It was all the signal I needed. I put my hand on the small of her back and pulled her gently in and we kissed softly once, twice on the lips, then her mouth opened and sought mine and we kissed hungrily, deeply, tongues moving together, lips finding each other.
