Last time on, Lovin' in the Apocalypse!
Rachel invited Kelsey over for dinner but is not there when the young woman arrived. Safe inside the walls with hours of alone time, Tom and Kelsey finally take it all the way.
What on earth was Rachel doing during all that adultery? Find out now!
Chapter 11: Guard Duty 2: Electric Boogaloo
Rachel walked to the front gate with a light head and squirming gut. The air was thick from the excitement she felt. It was strange to be this excited and not even be the one getting fucked. But the facts were undeniable. When Rachel pictured Kelsey walking into their cabin and going for Tom, it made her pussy feel like it was on fire. How long would it take before her husband was buried inside that seductress? Rachel would be willing to bet it would not take more than a few minutes. The only thing that could make this better would be a peep hole she could watch them through. She would have to talk to Tom about installing that.
There was a small group of people gathered at the gate and ready to start their shift. The sun was just starting to set and everyone looked in good spirits after another calm day at camp. Rachel felt like she was too obvious, paranoid that everyone could see she was holding an illicit secret. She found it especially hard to look Cameron in the eyes and was a little dismayed to find herself partnered with him for the shift. Rachel would have preferred to spend the guard shift with a stranger and daydreaming about what was happening in her home but now she would have to be more attentive.
Rachel was dressed practically, just jeans and a t-shirt. It was still warm in the evenings so her shirt was a bit more low cut than it probably needed to be. She was not a bra buster so did not mind letting her skin show. Cameron was dressed practically the same way as her only his shirt was tucked in and revealed none of his chest. He looked well groomed and happy to be alive as he smiled at Rachel.
"Who cuts your hair? It looks like you have it done, like, every week." Rachel sat down on the stool and put her feet up on the railing.
"Kelsey does it. About once a week, yeah. It's kind of a tradition for us." Cameron used a pair of binoculars to scan the bushy wood line that surrounded the camp. He wondered if they should work at thinning the area. The foliage was great at helping against the infected ones but were too useful for raiders. "Her mother was a hairdresser."
"That's sweet. I bet you really enjoy spending that time with her." Rachel wondered what seeing Kelsey in a tender moment was like. She seriously doubted she would see that anytime soon.
"I do." Cameron looked at Rachel as if he wanted to say something but reconsidered it. "Times like that are rare even before all this, you know? Kids love to be all over you when they're young and it can drive you crazy at times. But then, they get older and stop hanging around as much and you miss it. A lot. But with that little thing, as simple as a haircut, it lets me know she's still close to me."
Rachel swallowed as she turned her face away from Cameron. She tried to force the burning in her eyes away as a sudden pain filled her heart. A warm weight settled on her left shoulder as Cameron tried to comfort her. He noticed her moment of weakness in the suddenly silent stiffness she held.
"Hey, I'm sorry. I didn't think about what I was saying."
"It's okay." Rachel breathed out in a shaky voice. "You didn't do anything wrong." She placed her small hand on his large one and soaked in some of his offered comfort.
"You wanna talk about it?"
Rachel just shook her head, still not quite able to turn and face him. "I can't."
They sat in a companionable silence for a few moments before Cameron gave her shoulder a firm squeeze and pulled his hand away. Rachel cleared her throat and roughly wiped her cheeks. She gave Cameron a small but convincing smile. Her mood was not changed by the sudden memories. "I'm good, really. Just snuck up on me is all."
"I understand. But you know, if you ever wanted to talk about that or anything, you can come to me."
"Thanks, Cam."
"You're welcome, Ray." Cameron smiled a little mischievously before saying the secret nickname.
Rachel let out a genuine laugh that cleared the sad air from the area. "I thought you forgot about that."
"Nah, I just didn't see an appropriate moment to pull it out." He put the binoculars to his eyes again.
'This is an appropriate time to pull it out.' The thought crossed her mind quickly and made Rachel wonder what she would do if Cameron did actually pull his cock out. That would probably depend on what he wanted her to do with it. The thoughts were sudden, clear and they shocked Rachel. She never before felt so sure about cheating on her husband. But, was it cheating? Considering what he was doing with Kelsey right now the obvious answer felt like, no. However, she did not believe it was the same. Tom has permission to be with Kelsey. If she did anything with Cameron now, it would be crossing the line. So what if she only toed the line? If Tom could have his extra marital fun, what would be the harm in her having some too?
Rachel could not think of what to say to help keep the conversation going. She was too absorbed in wondering about Tom and Kelsey and fantasizing about what this moment could be like for her too. Likewise, Cameron did not seem to be in a hurry to fill the silence. She thought he was just lightly brooding until he finally spoke. It sounded as if he had been trying to work up a way to ask something. Rachel was amused at seeing the normally confident man a little nervous.
"So, uhh. How are things going with you? You seem happier lately." Cameron rubbed the back of his neck.
"I am happier now. It just took some time for me to want to be around people again."
"I guess I can understand that." After a few more quiet seconds, he continued, "and things are good at home? With Tom?"
Rachel looked at Cameron with an eyebrow raised. "Yes, things are fine with Tom. Why do you ask?"
"Oh, no real reason. Just trying to make small talk."
