Chapter 1: The Meeting
My story is a strange one. Or, maybe it isn't so strange. My name is Tammy; I am a 36-year-old divorcee. I loved my life. My job was rewarding, and challenging, I dated casually, and hung out with friends. I had a lot going for me. Then, I met him. Ed. The minute his eyes connected with mine, my life took a wild turn.
I had seen him around from time to time, and always when his blue eyes met my gaze, there was an electrical current that passed between us. I usually looked away first. It was too intense, too real. I always watched him walk away. His long blonde hair lying across his broad shoulders always incited fantasies in me. I wondered what it would feel like falling across my face.
I am not a beautiful woman. I am very attractive, pretty, and to some men very sexy. I am short, and sort of curvy, with short wavy blonde hair, and deep blue eyes. What makes me sexy is my very sensual nature. I love sex. I had seen Ed with women before; they were all older than I, and a totally different type. I wasn't sure what he saw in them, especially when I was sure I could offer him something he would never forget.
I was really surprised when one day, he spoke to me. I was sitting at the bar of a neighbor hood pub, talking to the bartender, who was a friend of mine. He sat next to me, and said, "Hello there." Eric stopped talking and looked from Ed to me, and then left us alone. I turned to face him, and was once again amazed at the intensity of his eyes. "I saw you sitting here, and thought to myself that I just had to finally speak to you."
I raised an eyebrow and smiled at him. I hadn't wanted to smile, it is never cool to seem too eager, but damn, he was fine. "Hello back" I said. Then I did that mental thing and chided myself for being lame. He reached up and traced my lip with a finger.
"Nice lips." He said. I was speechless. His thumb was lingering on my lower lip. My tongue chose this moment to have a mind of its own and reached out to lick the tip of his thumb. His eyes narrowed slightly. He stuck his thumb into my mouth, I ran my tongue around it, and then sucked on it slightly. He pursed his lips. And then he said, "come on, lets get out of here." I waved to Eric, who winked at me, and left with Ed, hand in hand.
I took him to my place, which was just around the corner. We were in each other's arms before the door was shut. He reached up and pushed his hands into my hair, gazing deeply into my eyes as he lowered his mouth to mine. His lips were strong, firm, and yet gentle. His tongue pushed into my mouth and did a dance with mine. I kept my eyes open and saw that his were too. The passion blossomed between us. His hands played over my shoulders, crushing the silk of my shirt. I found my hands in the silkiness of his tresses, and running over the planes of his face, into his beard, and tracing his lips, while they were still connected to mine.
