MY SWEET SANDY, CHAPTER TWO
by Eosphorus
I awoke earlier than usual, recollections of yesterday rushing in.
It happened. It really happened! I replayed it all in my head. Sandy's kisses and her full breasts in my hands. Her mouth on my dick. Her ample breasts mashed against my chest as I pounded her pussy with unrestrained abandon. Her whispering "fuck me" in my ear over and over.
There was no going back to sleep, not after that flood of memories. I crawled out of bed, though I still had another half hour before my alarm went off. No matter. I needed a few minutes to pack some things, since Sandy and I agreed I'd sleep over tonight.
I checked my phone before leaving the house. For a passing moment, I considered texting a friend about Sandy but put the notion out of my mind. If it'd been a random girl at a party, I might've. But Sandy merited discretion.
Besides, both Sandy and Mom had a mutual friend in Mrs. Driscoll. I didn't need my parents finding out about Sandy and me, if only for the sake of avoiding the awkwardness of them knowing I'd banged a lady twice my age.
Parents should be kept on a strict need-to-know basis when it comes to one's sex life, and my parents didn't need to know shit about this. Plus, Mom likes to prattle on how sex should be reserved for procreation. It could get ugly.
I got to Sandy's earlier than normal and paused at the front door. She left it open but I knocked on the screen door anyway. Sandy emerged from the kitchen, Gรผnther beside her. For once the rottweiler didn't growl.
Sandy beckoned me inside and gave me a warm kiss and a vigorous hug.
"You didn't have to knock," she said.
"I don't want to make assumptions. It's not my house just because, you know."
"You didn't have to knock even before we made love. Just walk in from now on, okay? Coffee?"
"Sure."
Sandy poured coffee and produced three day-old scones while we sat at the kitchen island. "I'm sorry I didn't have a chance to bake anything. I was busy last night."
"I'll forgive you."
"I'm surprised to see you here so early," she says. "If you were ever to come in late, it was today."
I shook my head. "You're paying me, and I don't want to do anything to take advantage of our new situation. When I'm supposed to be working, I'm working."
Sandy met my gaze, studying my face "You're wise beyond your years."
Her amber eyes drew me in. Don't they always? "I could get lost in your eyes. I do get lost."
Sandy kissed me, more tender than passionate and we shared a quiet moment of closeness.
We discussed the day ahead. Sandy was finishing up a few more pieces and I had a delivery in Bucks County and would get some supplies at the hardware store on the way home. The plan was for me to sand down the back deck in the afternoon and, time permitting, stain it. We'd have dinner afterwards.
"And after dinner?" I asked.
"We'll see what comes."
I was about to ask if that was a pun when I heard Manuel pulling into the driveway. Too bad.
"Come here." Sandy pulled me close and gave me a long, hot kiss. She pressed my hand against an ample breast as our tongues twirled.
She backed off and flashed me a devilish grin. "Did you like that?"
I could barely breathe, let alone speak. "Uh-huh."
"Good. Because it's going to have to sustain you until after work. You're now on the clock. Off you go."

I spent most of the afternoon sanding the deck and putting down a coat of stain. It was hot out and by the time I was done I was a sweaty mess.
I'd cleaned up the job by the time Manuel waved goodbye and drove off. I sat on the front steps, drinking gatorade and contemplating what jobs to tackle next. I was hoping to clean the gutters and also trim some trees out front, but it was Friday evening and all of that could wait until Monday.
Sandy came out of the house and sat next to me. "The deck looks great."
"Thanks. I had no idea I had a talent for staining decks. You hungry?"
"I'm getting there," she said. "I've a few things to finish in the shop. Why don't you get cleaned up and take a look in the fridge and see what you want to cook for dinner. I went to Ochiobello and bought a ton of ingredients."
I smile. "Will do."
I shaved and showered using the spare bathroom upstairs and got dressed.
I heard the shower going in Sandy's room, and went downstairs to cook dinner. Sandy kept her fridge well-stocked and a quick scan of the contents was all I needed to come up with something.
Let's see, what do we have?
Salmon. Asparagus. Plenty to work with.
I like to pretend I'm on a cooking competition show, working with limited ingredients under strict time constraints. I glanced at the clock on the microwave.
Six-thirty. I've got thirty minutes. Clock starts now.
I got to work, two pans and one pot on the stove as rice simmered, asparagus braised, and salmon sautรฉed. I checked the clock. Two minutes left.
Gonna be tight. Always tight.
I was almost done when Sandy came down. I took my eyes off the stove long enough to look at her. She'd put on a shoulderless lavender dress with a blue floral pattern. "You look amazing."
"This little thing?" She kissed me. "What're you making?"
"Salmon and asparagus over basmati rice."
"Sounds fantastic."
"You'll love it."
"When will it be ready?"
"Thirty seconds." A quick check of the clock.
Two minutes to spare. Victory!
Sandy poured two glasses of Chardonnay while I brought the plates over to the island and we sat close to each other. She took a forkful of salmon and I waited for her reaction.
Her eyes grew wide. "This is spectacular. How'd you get so good at cooking?"
"It's always been my thing."
"You're going to be a hell of a chef, James." She ate another bite, rolling her eyes. "This is incredible. Are you sure you want to walk away from a talent like this forโwhat was it, again?โaccounting?"
"I don't want to. There's that offer of a place with my dad's firm. The guarantee of a comfortable life."
"Is that what you want?"
"No. What I
want
is to cook."
