First off, I have to again give a huge thanks to rnebular for once again taking the time to edit and give suggestions to improve this story. I truly think my stories here have greatly improved with his 'nitpicking.' This story is inspired by two actual events, which I won't go into until the end (no spoilers). I just imagined them happening to the same person. I need to give an anonymous shout out to my friend who's a clinical psychologist for answering a staggering amount of hypothetical questions to help me write this.
It's hard to believe this will be my 30
th
submission to Literotica when I spent so many years writing but not submitting for one reason or another. With an average rating of 3.87 in a category that routinely sees a lot of stories below 3, I'm happy with how well my stories are received and greatly appreciate the kind words -- especially some of the anonymous ones I received after one of my pet trolls took credit for my 'retirement.' Speaking of trolls, while I'm sure you don't want to believe this, I actually get a kick out of most of the negative comments, and definitely not offended or hurt. I could just remove them if I really was, but I figure other readers might get a laugh out of how ridiculous some are so I leave them all. Again, thanks for the love and the hate. This one is a reconciliation story for those accusing my last few stories of being RAAC. I'm only doing this for fun and will continue to do so as long as it's still fun for me. I hope you enjoy!

******************
I was cringing at work Monday morning as I saw the picture and brief story in our city's local paper: "Freddy Fingers Video filmed at Winfield Area During Kids Hockey Game Goes Viral." The accompanying picture was of a man and a woman standing rink side against the glass and boards from the mid-section up while, in the background, an under-fourteen hockey game was going on. Both were facing away, so neither could be identified. I just skimmed the story to verify no names, other than the eighteen-year-old young woman who posted the video online was named.
Technically, I am in the picture, and the video along with my daughter. Coach Carl to my girls and their parents, and Carl Stanos to everyone else. Both of us are at the bench, hardly visible in the background. Because I was coaching at the game in question, a co-worker texted me a link to the video as soon as I arrived. I actually, just watched it for the first time twenty minutes before I saw the paper article. I don't know how many times I watched it total, but enough that it was seared into my memory for life.
In the video, which was less than a minute long, the two are standing by the glass at the far side of the rink, the opposite side of the other parents. The woman, with long dark her, is wearing a fall coat and yoga pants, clutching her phone like a camera. The man, late thirties, short hair with a slightly scruffy beard, is wearing a leather coat and kaki pants. At one point in the video he turns to whisper in the woman's ear and his face is clearly visible. Why the newspaper only showed them from just above the belt, and why it had gone viral, despite being pulled from the site it was initially posted at, was what was happening while the woman was bent over, resting her elbows on the board. The man, invisible to anyone looking at them from across the rink, had his arm halfway shoved down the back of her yoga pants. In the video, it was clear that his hand was actively moving between her legs.
After a few seconds of that, a young female voice whispers, "Eww...check out Freddy Fingers. Looks like he's right inside her pussy." Then the camera zoomed a little closer to the movements at the woman's crotch and stops.
The man is Brayden Garde, a divorced parent of Michelle, one of the girls I coach, who also happens to be really good friends with my own daughter, Reese. Even though her face isn't visible, I knew the woman since I was glancing at the two of them through out the game, no clue what was happening. She was my wife of sixteen years, Patty.
It was just over eighteen years ago when I first met Patricia Bell -- as she went by back then. It was at a college party that Greg, one of my old friends from high school, dragged me to. I was in my third year of tech school studying computer networks, and Patty was in her first year of general Arts. When I first saw this skinny thing, dressed more trendy than sexy, I admit I wasn't that impressed. I was a boob man back then, and she looked like she didn't really have any. I thought her face was really cute, with her pale skin and green eyes, but not the big-boobed blondes I generally pursued.
A few beers into the night, while I was trying to chat up a buxom blonde in a micro skirt, Greg said that there was someone I needed to meet. Didn't find out until our wedding reception, he was really running interference for one of his classmates who also had intentions on that hottie in the skirt. That person I needed to meet was of course, Patty. Because I didn't consider her a potential sexual conquest, I was rather cool and relaxed around her, and thought she was the funniest, wittiest girl I'd ever met. At the time, I still had the misconception that only men were vulgar and women were classier. Patty and I shared the same raunchy humor, and I ended up hanging out with her with the rest of the night having the time of my life. As the night was winding down, and I needed to catch a cab back to my apartment, Patty started acting a little funny with these awkward pauses. She was drinking mostly pop and wasn't drunk, but I was and also clueless. I thought she was giving me the hint-hint for me to leave her alone. I thanked her for the company and said it was great to meet her and left.
A couple days later, my bud, Greg, who invited me to the party called and gave me supreme shit. I had no clue what he meant, but he said that Patty was waiting all night for me to make a move and I ditched her. He then asked me whether I would consider dating her. I thought for a moment, and remembered thinking her face was much prettier than I first thought, and how great we got along. If anything, I really did want to hang out with her again. I told him sure, and then he gave me her number.
