It had been two weeks since I saw her. Naked, that is. She'd come out of the bathroom, dripping wet, and almost ran into me as I was closing my bedroom door.
"Oh," she'd said and grabbed her robe from behind the door. "Sorry James. Didn't see you there."
I wanted to nod, smile, say that it was okay, but I couldn't move my lips. She was perfect with breasts that would fit perfectly in my hands, a flat stomach and a line of trimmed hair between her legs that was a little darker than the light brown hair on her head. I stood in the hall for a good thirty seconds after she'd closed the door with a sheepish grin before I remembered I needed to go to work.
I'd moved into Chad's house a month before this happened. He was a nice enough guy, worked as a personal trainer. He looked like all he did was train, lift, eat and sleep. His girlfriend, Katherine, stayed at the house a few nights a week. She had a degree in Art History and worked at a preschool in town teaching art. From the moment I met her, I wondered what she was doing with a guy like Chad. He was all bulk and mass while she was delicate, small and beautiful. I had tried to mind my own business, go to work, get a few beers with the guys from the shop and come home without thinking of her too much and it worked...until I saw her naked. After that, I couldn't stop thinking about her: her fair skin which smelled like coconuts, her soft hair which I wanted to run my hands through, hell even her feet, which she always had polished. I began jerking off every morning and night, a habit I had stopped when I lost my virginity at sixteen.
Vince, another mechanic at the shop, noticed something was off and asked me one day, "What's wrong, Kid?" All they guys called me, "Kid," as, at twenty-two, I was fifteen years younger than the youngest guy there. My dad and Carl, the shop's owner, had served in the Marine Corps. The guys all gave me shit my first week, but since I'd become friends with them all.
I shrugged. "Nothing."
He nodded. "Women troubles." He left me alone, but when i got home that night, I realized how deep I was in. Chad was working late with a private client so it was just me and Katherine, who was outside on the deck.
Chad's dog, Frankie, was sitting by the back door. I let him out and Katherine jumped at the sound of the door.
"Sorry," I said and stepped outside. I saw that she was drinking wine with the bottle on the table.
She shook her head. "No, it's okay. I just didn't see you there."
We had a charcoal grill outside and I noticed new briquettes in it but they weren't lit. "You grilling tonight?"
"I was going to, but Chad said he won't be home until tonight. So I'll probably just make some pesto and pasta."
"I can light it for you, if you want me to."
She smiled. "I know how to light a grill."
"IβI know. I just..." I stammered.
"Do you have plans tonight? I'll cook the chicken and make a salad for us, but it's too much work for just myself."
I nodded a bit quicker than I wanted. "Yeah. I mean, no I don't have plans. That would be nice."
She smiled and it went straight to my groin. She was so pretty sitting there with no makeup on and her hair pulled back. An image of her on her hands and knees in front of me as I pulled her ponytail and pounded into her dripping wet pussy flashed in my mind. My cheeks flushed. I knew she saw, but didn't say anything.
"Would you like a glass of wine? It's a sauvignon blanc."
I nodded.
"Good because I hate drinking alone. I'll pour you a glass while you light the grill."
I nodded again and she smiled again.
That night, we stayed up until one in the morning and talked. Chad got home around ten but didn't even come outside to say hello before going to bed.
When his bedroom light went off, Katherine sighed.
"You okay?" I asked, forgetting about what I'd been about to say.
"Oh yeah. I'm fine."
