Note to my readers: Intrigue precedes this story.

As she lay there, with her head on my chest, I thought back through our past together. We met per chance when her son and my younger brother started playing soccer together. I was still discovering myself at that point and so it was great to have a strong and successful woman to look up to. Eventually, she hooked me up with a job at the place that she worked. She was in charge of the kitchen at a country club and I was her new employee. All summer we worked together for a couple of hours in the middle of the day and it would be crazy at first, but after the lunch rush, things would settle down and we could just talk.
I am not going to lie...I often fantasized about her taking control as my boss and having me come in in early to "lend a hand" one morning. Anyway, the end of her shift was always the worst part of the day because we had to say goodbye. She would leave and I would always imagine what it would be like to feel her lips on mine and to feel her hands on my body.
By the end of our summer together, the sexual tension was ridiculous, but we often played it off as a joke. One time, she was cooking something and I was cutting on the cutting board right next to where she was standing, so we stood only inches apart. She was graceful and sexy when she cooked and I couldn't help but watch. She dropped whatever she was holding onto the floor with a loud clang.
"Shit J, you are making me nervous," she admitted.
As she looked into my eyes I realized that it wasn't that I had been watching her, but instead, how close our bodies were...close enough to grab her around the waist and pull her into my body and close enough for her to spin around, grab me by the shirt collar, and cheat on her girlfriend.
I never thought that all the joking and flirting would actually lead to this, but I sure am glad that it did.
