I was running a quick errand at the local Lowe's, picking up some odds and ends. Checkout line 1 was empty. As I approached, I noticed that the checkout clerk was an older woman, heavy, in fact, quite heavy. So heavy that she was working sitting on a stool. Near her was a cane. I placed my purchase on the counter and looked up at her, ready for the usual small talk. She looked at me and our eyes instantly locked. Her eyes looked tired, yet warm, and sad, all at the same time. We talked a bit while she scanned my purchases, not small talk, but conversation that suggested a real caring. All the while our eyes stayed locked. I felt some kind of instant connection with her and had a strong sense that she felt the same.
My mind raced.....does she desire me? Are we really connecting? Should I act on my feelings? Should I say something?
I looked down and gathered up my purchase, change, and receipt. I snuck a quick glance at her breasts. They were saggy and somewhat flat. Under her blue Lowe's t-shirt her nipples were hard and protruding. I looked up again and she still had the same warmth and kindness in her eyes...and lust. I decided to act.
"You seem like a really nice person, and I don't want to offend you or creep you out, but I'm sensing that we are really connecting here. Can I ask you.....do you notice it too?"
She said, "Um...I need this job and don't want to get into any trouble."
"It's okay. I'm not easily offended. You can say anything to me...really."
"Well," she said, "yes, I'm feeling it too. I mean I'm noticing it too."
I gave her a contented, reassuring smile with warmth in my eyes. I also pushed my hips into the checkout counter top and felt the pressure on my now half erect cock.
We both remained quiet for an uncomfortable amount of time. I looked down, then looked back up at her and said, "Would you like to maybe meet for coffee after your shift is over?"
She said, "That would be lovely. I get off at 5 and there is a Starbucks just across the street. How about there?"
I said, "I look forward to it, and I'll see you at 5."
I was at the coffee shop a few minutes early. I wanted her to see that I was interested. She arrived and we found a quiet table in the rear of the shop.
Her name was Alice and she worked just to get by. Her husband had passed away many years ago and her life was a lonely one.
"Alice, when we looked at each other at Lowe's, it just seemed like an immediate connection to me. I sensed that you are lonely...I'm lonely too."
Alice said, "It has been too long since I have been with someone, and if you will forgive me, I mean with someone in a romantic way."
"Do you mean in a physical way?"
Alice paused for a long moment and then looked down and quietly said, "Yes."
"I'd like to help with that."
"What do you have in mind?" Alice asked. "I mean, there are a lot of creeps out there and I don't want to......."
