Chapter two
A few hours later, things were a little different for both Brian and Susie.
Susie, after her orgasm, had realised what she had done and started to over analyse the whole day. Her anxiety levels peaked. She lay paralysed by her actions. Her breathing fast and erratic. After some moments she calmed herself down. She thought about it. She had to text Brian and apologise. She was lost in the moment. He would understand. Brian would understand, wouldn't he?
Brian was also realising a few home truths. He knew Susie wouldn't show. She had clearly got lost in the moment and got carried away. He smiled to himself. Shook his head. Still, he thought, it was fun and a great memory! Then he thought about his beloved Mary and the things they did, and what she would say about it all.
Brian thought he best text Susie so it wouldn't be uncomfortable between them when he saw her next. He certainly didn't want her to leave under these circumstances, plus there were still some potatoes to dig up and he couldn't do it by himself! He laughed and shook his head at the absurdity of the whole situation.
Brian went to the kitchen to find his mobile phone.
Susie went downstairs to get some water and compose herself, so she had a clear head for texting Brian.
Brian looked on the countertop, in his coat pocket and in his rucksack. No sign of the phone.
Susie poured herself a long glass of cold water. She drank the first half quickly. Took a breath and was just going in to finish the rest when the monotonous voice of Adam shouting her broke her thought process. She put the glass down by the sink and walked into the living room.
Brian scratched his chin. Thought for a minute. Then decided to ring his mobile from the land line.
Adam turned briefly to see Susie standing by the kitchen door. "oh, there you are babe, Nathan and Charlie are coming over tonight for the game and a few beers. Can you go to the shop and get some beers and nibbles and shit in for us?"
Susie frowned and was about to say something when Adam interrupted her knowing what was coming "aww come on babe, you went out the other night and I didn't get all pissy about it. Don't be a miserable cow, you can watch it with us if you like? Just don't be giving Nathan the come on like last time, you know he wants you!"
Susie and Adam got into a blazing row until the doorbell went and Susie answered it. It was Nathan. "Alright darlin" looking good! Is the big lad in?" Nathan asked cheerily.
Susie glared at him, pointed to the living room and retorted "He's in there and he isn't a big lad as you put it!" with the emphasis on the word big with additional air quotes just so Nathan fully understood her. Nathan laughed and pushed by her. Susie stormed upstairs to the bedroom and slammed the door.
Brian rang his phone. He followed the noise of the ringtone and found it down the side of the sofa, along with a few coins and a boiled sweet still wrapped. This day just gets better! He thought.
He sat down. Took a deep breath and opened a new message.
Susie sat on her bed in tears. She let Adam upset her again! She was annoyed that she snapped. Lying back her head fell onto the pillow. The sudden movement caused her phone to fall on the floor.
She sat up right, saw the phone and picked it up. She unlocked it and saw the new message she was sending to Brian. Shit! She cursed; she had momentarily forgot about that! Susie started typing out her message.
