Mark, a much older man, invites Maureen to stay with him.
Continued from Chapter 02: Mature Man & Maiden Maureen
Then, I thought about Michael Douglas with Katherine Zeta Jones. They have a 25-year age difference, the same as Maureen and I. What was the attraction there? Surely, it wasn't the money. She didn't need his money. She had her own money. She could have had married nearly any man.
I thought about Tony Randall fathering a child at 77-years-old and a second child at 78-years-old? I thought of Al Pacino fathering a child at the ripe, old age of 83-years-old. What a role model they are for us older gentlemen in helping to keep the possibilities of love and sex with someone much younger alive.
Suddenly, the image of the late Anna Nicole Smith with her now deceased, 90-year-old husband, J. Howard Marshall, did not bode well with my confidence of winning her affection. Suddenly, I felt like Arte Johnson, the incorrigible dirty, old man of 'Rowan & Martin's Laugh-in,' making a pass at Ruth Buzzi. I felt a bit ridiculous deciding, instead, to take it slow, while hoping that it would happen naturally with time.
After all, if it was meant to be, a much older man with a much younger woman, it would happen. Maybe, now that her boyfriend is out of the picture and she's coming to my house to live with me, I have a chance to romance her. Maybe, now, at the very least, she'd give me rebound sex. I laughed at her fucking me day and night with rebound sex.
Boy, I only wish, what a way to die? Only, I wanted more than just sex. I wanted love. I wanted her to be with me forever as my friend, my lover, and my wife.
Chances are she'll stay overnight and will be back together with her abusive boyfriend tomorrow. Chances are I'm going through something, a delayed middle-aged crisis, perhaps, with the one year anniversary of my girlfriend leaving me. Chances are she'll break my heart. Realistically, what are my chances? I didn't know. I had no idea. Nonetheless, I had to take this opportunity that was presented before me and make the best of it.

It was a short drive to my house. I live at the end of a cul-de-sac where the trees that surrounded my property afforded me a level of privacy to walk out on my back and front porch naked, if I so wanted, without anyone seeing me. Not that I would walk out on my porches naked, who would want to see a 50-year-old man naked? Maybe, a 50-year-old woman would want to see me naked, but surely, not a 25-year-old, beautiful woman.
Most of what she had were clothes, old clothes, nothing new or special. With her a lowly special needs teacher, she didn't have very much. She moved in with her boyfriend from her parents' home after college and he had everything that she needed: furniture, appliances, and dishware. Even the television set was his. At least, she had a car, an old Honda Civic, and could get around herself without being dependent upon me for transportation, although, if it meant her staying with me, I'd chauffeur her anywhere, anytime.
I made her comfortable in the guest bedroom, which was at the end of the hall. Not having to share a bathroom, having her own, it was as if she had her own suite, which by her reaction to the accommodations was a favorable one. The arrangement afforded her a level of privacy, if she wanted it. At this point, I'd accommodate her in any way that would make her comfortable, happy, and make her stay. Hell, I'd give her the master bedroom, my bedroom if that persuaded her to stay longer.
Almost giddy with delight, I was off the floor with happiness that she was here with me in my house and in my little world, which now suddenly expanded to include her and her dog. I never knew how alone I was, until her presence filled my life with conversation, laughter, and joy. Now, I looked forward to the little things that became big things when living alone.
Now, I had someone to watch television with, play board games with, and go places with. Suddenly, I wanted to go everywhere and do everything with her. Wanting to make them all envious, I wanted to show her off to my friends. I wanted them to see how young, beautiful, and sexy she was.
Yet, I dreaded the inevitable fall from this temporary high, when she left, one day, maybe sooner than later. Knowing that it would come eventually and hit me hard, when it did. In the meantime, I decided to live in the moment and not to think about tomorrow and her leaving.

Mature Man & Maiden Maureen, Chapter 03:
"May I sleep with you," she asked?
She stood in my bedroom doorway clutching her pillow up to her chest. From what I could see of her sticking out either side of the pillow, she was naked. Maureen wanted to sleep with me while she was naked.
'Oh, my God! My sexual fantasy has come true,' I thought.

Now that she was here temporarily staying with me, I realized that there was so much I didn't know about her. There was so much that I needed to know about her. It's the little things that suddenly became so important, especially when they're missing from one's daily routine, daily thoughts, and conversation.
Does she drink coffee or does she drink tea? Maybe, she doesn't drink either and drinks soda. What does she eat for breakfast? What time does she go to bed? What time does she get up in the morning? What does she look like in the morning without makeup?
There was so many things to learn about her. Which programs does she enjoy watching on television? Does enjoy watching sports? Does she like watching baseball, the Boston Red Sox? What about football, the New England Patriots? Basketball, the Boston Celtics? Hockey, the Boston Bruins? It was then that I realized that I needed to get a life, instead of living my live vicariously through the lives of professional, sports athletes.
My quandary about her private life and personal choices continued preoccupying my mind. Even after all of the conversations that we had while walking through the dog park, it was nothing but surface conversations. When I thought more about her, I really didn't know her at all.
What's her favorite color? What's her favorite food? What kind of music does she like? What's her favorite game? What does she like to do? What's her favorite movie and television program? Not that I'd be sleeping with her in the same bed but, which side of the bed does she prefer? Does she sleep in pajamas, a nightgown, or in the nude?
'Oh, my God, my pulse raced when imagining her sleeping naked, completely naked, and totally naked.'

Something else for me to masturbate over, I could only imagine the image of her sleeping in the nude. Okay, the last two questions, I admit, are premature, but maybe, if it was to come up in conversation, in readiness of her sleeping arrangements, I'd make special note of her night time preferences. Suddenly, I imagined her in her bra and panties in the way that I saw her at the park. I imagined her topless. Then, I imagined her naked.
