Chapter 2. A Massage and a Friend
It had been a few days since our date and it was now Friday. It was mid-morning and I was hanging out in my room. I've been up for a couple hours but haven't really moved much. I was sitting on my bed in just my boxers watching TV. My mom and me hadn't talked much the past few days. It wasn't uncommon though. We would often go a day or two without very much conversation between us. Usually I'd be in my Cave (work room from the previous chapter) working on my projects and streaming and my mom would just leave me be. Sometimes she would be out and about maybe shopping or visiting Sarah in San Diego.
This time was different though. It was intense in that vehicle on the way home. So intense it felt like that ride lasted forever. When we got home that night my mom seemed like she didn't want to let go of my hand. After a few minutes she did and we walked into the house all the while not saying a word. When we reach the hallway I turned to my mom. Before I could say anything she hugged me. Hard and long. I returned the embrace. Then she released me and went into her room and closed the door behind her. I stood there for a minute or two unsure of what to do. I was tempted to go to her room try and comfort her in some way but decided against it.
I walked into the bathroom that was between my room and my mom's. I washed my face and brushed my teeth. I stripped down to my boxers and hung my clothes on the towel rack behind me. I was on my way out the bathroom when I heard a noise. I couldn't quite make it out so I turned out the light in the bathroom that was making a hum. The noise was a bit louder now. It sounded like a whimper..coming from mom's room. It was soft but strong. It was coming steadily too. I assumed she was crying. Crying. She hadn't done that in a while at least in front of me. But why? Why was she crying now? Was she thinking crazy thoughts like I was? Did I do this? All I knew was that I really wanted to go in there and comfort her.
"
But what if I only bring her more pain?"
I thought. I decided that going to bed and get some rest would be best. It would also give my mom time too. I headed to my room and plopped on the bed. I started trying to figure out ways to talk to my mom tomorrow. I got halfway through an idea before I passed out.
Now it was Friday. We never had that talk but she woke up the next morning and behaved the same way she always did. I was going to bring it up but I ultimately decided to let it go. Things seem fine now and I didn't want to ruin it. So that was that. I hadn't left my room yet this morning so I haven't seen my mom. I haven't heard her door so it didn't seem like she hadn't left her room either.
I was just getting bored of watching TV when the doorbell rang. I sighed. I knew exactly who that was and what was about to make my day a longer day. I got up and threw on a T-shirt and shorts. I walked out of my room and toward the front of the house. I looked towards my mom's room. The door was closed but the light was on. I was sure I could hear her moving about. I reached the front door and paused. I took a breath and open the door. I was immediately met with the smell of strawberries.
Strawberries and vanilla. It was heavenly. The origin of that smell was standing right in front of me smiling from ear to ear. Staci was beautiful. No doubt about it. As much as it seems like I complain about her flirting with me I really don't mind it. She was fun and exciting to be around. She was a classic California girl.
Staci was caucasian with an incredible tan. She had perfect bronze skin that look amazing in the sunlight. She had long wavy dirty blonde hair that ran past her shoulders and stopped halfway down her back. It was all down now flowing in the slight breeze that had come in this morning. She had piercing green eyes that looked like someone stuck two emeralds on her face. She had this cute button like nose with a few freckles across it. Her lips were full, redish pink, and plump and made it seem like she was always pouting. Her teeth were perfect after she had braces in her early teens (she told me). She was tall for size about 5'10 or 11' pushing 6'. She had a long slender neck that lead to her perfect model body.
Her slight shoulders lead on to her slender frame. Her breasts were just a little more than a handful and sat up perfectly on her toned chest. They were perky and had just enough weight where they bounce if she jumped around. They were currently under a green ripped half shirt that was sleeveless. I'm sure if I was sitting down and she was right under me I'd be staring right at her really tan breasts. Since she was wearing a half shirt you could see her toned stomach. She had a soft six pack and it was enticing to look at. Lower than that was a really small pair of Daisy Duke's that fit her just right. I'm sure if I walked around her I'd see that toned and round ass, that she was always teasing me with, halfway sticking out of them. Her legs were long and toned like the rest of her body and she had a pair of flip flops on to finish the outfit.
Staci was a massage therapist as well as a yoga instructor. She also did some surfing on the side. All that made her body look incredible like it was chiseled by the gods themselves. If it was my first time seeing her I would be at a lost for words but I'd known her for a couple of years now. Jenn had met her at some concert very close to the end of our senior year of college. I would have never matched the two as friends but somehow it worked and well.
Today was different though. I'm sure she was planning for it too and to her account it worked perfectly. She clearly had some "work" done since I last saw her. The most noticeable thing was her stomach. She had a navel piercing that in all honesty somehow made her even sexier than before. It was long, about an inch and hung under her belly button. The other thing took a minute to notice but once I did my eyes grew wide. Staci smiled. She had been waiting for this moment. To be honest I'm more than happy that she was. Her little half shirt was tight on her body. There was no mistaking where her nipples were. Except this time they looked different. It was very clear she got them pierced. They seem to be bars with a little jeweled half circle on the underside of the bar. I couldn't clearly see them but her shirt was just thin enough to make them out. I was at a lost of words. Staci's smile somehow got wider.
"Hey Chris. How's it going?" She asked with her smooth bubbly voice.
"H-hey Staci..." I managed to sputter out.
"Can I come in?"
"Sure. Yeah come on in."
I moved aside to let her in. She walked past me into the house. Her round toned ass swaying as she walked. I came in behind her and shut the door. Staci walked over to the island in the kitchen and put her purse down. She turned towards me and leaned back against the island. I was standing in the big entrance way of the kitchen trying my best not to get a hard on right in front of her. Staci's half shirt seemed more like a "thirds shirt". It was cut off right under her boobs so they way she was leaning I could see a slight view of her under boob. I sighed.
Staci laughed. "Is you mom still getting on to you about that?"
"What?" I asked not at all listening to what she just said.
"You sighed. Is you mom still giving you crap for it?" She asked again.
"Oh yeah. She is. She refuses to give up. Me? I gave up a long time ago." I answered.
"I don't know. I kinda like it."
"You like it? How so?" I wondered eyebrows raised.
"It's kinda your thing. A part of who you are. It would be weird if you stopped doing it." She said genuinely.
"Hmmm. I haven't thought of it that way. I guess so."
"Totally. Now come here and give me a hug. I haven't seen you in a while." She beckoned me.
I walked up to her and she threw her arms around my neck and hug me in a tight embrace. I could feel her perky tits pushed against my chest. I could also feel those piercings poking my chest. I wrapped my arm around her waist to hug her back. I misjudged how tall she actually was and my hand rested on her round firm ass. I immediately moved my hand up to her lower back in embarrassment. Either she didn't notice or she didn't care. I was leaning on the latter given her numerous advances toward me. I begin to ease out of the hug and Staci was too but she stopped with her forearms resting on my shoulders. She was looking me in the eyes and smiling. Fuck she had a gorgeous smile.
"You still look really good. How are you doing it?" She asked me.
"You know I run every other night." I said matter of factly. She did. She's actually ran with me every now and then. I don't mind it. Jennifer never would. "In fact I'm probably gonna run tonight. Care to join me?"
"Sure! I'll just have on what I have on but I'd be totally down." She said as she bounced with excitement.
