Dear Diary
Thankfully nothing untoward seemed to have come from my indiscretion. Things settled back into their normal routine and life continued as it had done before. The Summer holidays were coming to an end and the kids were, thankfully, due back at school in a week.
Then one morning I checked Facebook on my phone and in horror saw a friend request from Daniel Emberton. His profile pic showed him clearly. It must have been taken while on holiday because you could see the vibrant blue of the ocean behind him and a white sandy beach, he was wearing that trademark smile - not to mention a bare sculpted chest - that had impressed me so much before.
I browsed his profile, looking at his long list of friends, feeling slightly jealous at how popular and successful he appeared. But I couldn't possibly accept someone that I'd had a holiday fling with could I? No. Reject.
Two days later another friend request. This time just from Dan. He must have hastily set up a new Facebook page and tried to friend me that way. It didn't show any details, not even a picture. Perhaps he thought I was worried my husband might ask who the rather good looking Daniel Emberton was and so he had created an alter ego?
Reject.
About a week later I received another friend request from Nathan Brookes. I'd never heard of him, but I suspected it was Dan. Reject.
Things went quiet for a while then, and I didn't receive any more requests.
Then a week after the kids had started back to school and I'd dropped them off I was walking back home when a black BMW pulled up next to me. The passenger window hummed as it lowered and the driver looked across at me.
Dan.
"H...h...How?" I spluttered.
"Get in."
I shook my head "I'm not sure," I said hastily looking around for other moms. I felt guilty, just by the fact that he was sitting in the car next to me.
"Come on Penny. Didn't anyone tell you, you should always accept lifts from strange men?"
I grinned. Looked around surreptitiously then pulled the door handle and climbed in.
"I only live two minutes down the road. I don't really need a lift..." I began
"We're not going to yours," He said smiling across at me.
"Where then?" I queried, feeling a little anxious.
"Wait and see," he said ominously.
We drove for about thirty minutes. I found out along the way that because I'd rejected him on Facebook he'd resorted to stalking me through my friends. He'd become friends with one of the other moms and had found out near enough where I lived and narrowed down the school. I didn't know whether to feel impressed or a little creeped out by his FBI skills.
'I'm staying in the area for a while and I thought it would be a massive shame if we didn't meet up again."
"What happened before, can't happen again," I said quickly.
He gave me a sly grin "Of course not Pen. What do you take me for?" he said mock incredulously.
"I know what to take you for," I replied.
"Now you're the one making the double entendres," he answered.
I blushed, and looked straight ahead. We were entering Formby nature reserve. I'd played here as a kid with my brothers when my mom and dad had stayed in a caravan on the nearby site.
"What are we doing here?"
"Well it's a nice September day, not too cold so I thought we'd come for a picnic."
"A picnic?"
"Yes what's wrong with that."
"Erm you don't strike me as the picnic type of person."
"You see Penelope, that's just the kind of misapprehension I'm trying to correct. I am most definitely the picnic type of person."
And dear diary he was, he'd got the raffia basket, chequered cloth, champagne glasses, and all manner of delicious munchies to go with it.
We kicked back on the beach and sat drinking, (mostly me since he was driving) and eating in the Indian Summer sunshine. There weren't many others on the beach, just a few dog walkers, and we'd found quite a secluded spot. A couple of times Dan rested his hand on my leg or brushed my hair out of my eyes, and each time I felt a charge of electricity run though me. I kept wondering whether he'd brought me here to have his wicked way with me again. I felt nervous and excited too. I was eager to tell him how I'd given James a blow job and sucked his cum down my throat, but felt too embarrassed. I didn't want to reveal James' rather dismissive reaction to my audacious act of fellatio either. We chatted some more and went for a walk, he put his hand in mine and we walked along the shoreline. I felt rather tipsy and stumbled almost falling into the water. Dan grabbed me and pulled me to him. I sensed he was about to kiss me, and puckered my lips in readiness, but he decided against it, and grabbed my hand to resume our stroll. I felt disappointed, though I knew I shouldn't be, what was I thinking? I looked at the time, and saw that we only had an hour before I had to pick the kids up.
"I have to go," I said.
Dan nodded and we made our way back to the car.
On the drive back, rather embarrassingly I fell asleep, and was awoken by Dan nudging my shoulder.
"That's a sexy look. Drooling onto the headrest."
I blushed profusely. "I wasn't was I? I'm sorry."
"Don't worry sweetie. I was only joking. You didn't drool, or snore. You were the perfect lady."
He pulled up near the school and I jumped out.
"Thanks for the picnic," I called in through the door "It's been lovely."
"I had a great time too," he replied. Then his car slowly departed down the road.
Life quickly returned to its normal pace although I did wonder quite frequently what Dan was doing. I even tried searching through my friends pages on Facebook to track him down, but I couldn't find anything.
However, a couple of weeks later the black BMW again slid in to the curb next to me. This time, I was virtually outside my house.
"Fancy another trip out?"
I did. I really did dear diary. My life had been rather stagnant lately, kids, cooking, cleaning, repeat, and when Dan took me out to Formby it had provided such a pleasant break from the routine so I was eager to repeat the experience. Besides, a dark part of me had hoped he'd make a move on me at the picnic on the beach. I wanted to feel the kiss of his lips on me again, and it was exciting being out in his company. He was so masculine and had the whole bad boy James Dean air about him. He was the total opposite of safe boring hubby James.
I nodded enthusiastically and told him I was just going in to get changed since I was wearing some rather unflatteringly comfy clothes. I ran back past my neighbours houses and in through my own front door.
I nipped quickly upstairs to the bedroom and grabbed a Summery floral print dress. The weather was still unseasonably warm, and the dress was one of my favourites. It was a bit short, stopping mid thigh but I could pair it with my knee length boots to offset that. I dressed in the bathroom and applied some lipstick and made myself look presentable. Actually I looked more than presentable even if I say so myself. I looked damn good. Had I overdone it? I wondered, would Dan get the wrong idea? Though would that be a bad thing? Then I suddenly heard a noise from the bedroom and opened the door.
There stood Dan, and he whistled appreciatively when he saw me.
"The door was open downstairs. I didn't know if I was supposed to come in?" He said.
No you weren't. I thought, and I was pretty sure I'd closed the front door. But he looked me up and down, and I could see his eyes taking in the sight of me in the short dress, and I wondered if I'd misjudged and perhaps should have chosen something a little more conservative? But then he came towards me, placing his hands on my waist, and sliding down, over my thighs and all the way down to the hem of my dress, which he slowly lifted up.
