This is a Memory from George, but he can't write so I get credit for posting it to Literotica.
"When I was one and Forty, I heard a wise man say,
A girl who's only half your age
Can Fuck your pain away
But I was One and Forty, and thought him only blue.
But now I'm four and Forty,
And Oh, Tis True, Tis True"1
So there I was, a new Department Chair where I had to have an assistant immediately. The University took four months to approve and appoint someone, but I had outside funding, so I could thankfully skip that step.
But I was new to town, and didn't know who to hire. I had fantasies of finding a fantastic grad student, desperate for money, willing to do anything for a salary.... How do you find that when you don't know anyone?
There was a young woman, a co-worker, but she was married and had a job, so I never considered her; until she offered, because her husband had been laid off for a few months.
She was certainly easy on the eyes, but I felt my dreams disappear, for she would not be the stuff of libidinous desires.
I had to have someone; she could do the job, so I sealed the deal. Christy was her name, one now burned into my memories.
Well, as the hours passed I found she was very bright, had a wicked sense of humor, and flirted back as hard as I dared try. Seems she had gotten married to a guy at 16 who now by 21 showed way less ambition and work ethic than did she.
Interesting, but still..... I wasn't going to get caught in that kind of trap. I had worked too hard to get my position to lose it in a harassment complaint.
I don't know if it was just perception, or a subtle shift in clothing and hair style, but every time I met with Christy she got better looking, and I had to remind myself that I wanted to keep my job.
Then I was notified that there was a training conference in St. Louis for both researchers and their assistants. We arranged to go, set up two rooms, and I was off for four days with a girl half my age.
We drove to the airport and Christy regaled me with stories of her limited experience with travels and how her father (younger than me) had worked in a coal mine. She took photos of the plane, the airport, the scenery from the window. I don't think she ever stopped talking or sat still.
I started being glad I had a separate room. We were professional and excited until I went to the desk.
"Sir that conference ended yesterday." I was in shock. How had I made such a mistake -- WAS it a mistake? You can go crazy trying to second guess yourself.
"Christy, I've run into a little problem. Apparently I got us here on the wrong dates, the training seminar is over."
