CHAPTER TWO
Sitting on the beach, midday, sunny, nice breeze off the water, speedo, chair, thermos full of margaritas, hanging out, watching the skinny young girls in their thongs, thinking about Zoe, back home now, over a month, how she feels under me, almost hard. Should probably think about something else.
"Mind if I join you?"
Caught, move my towel to cover, look up. Around my age, tall lean, handful on top. Sun-kissed brown hair cut short, welcoming green eyes. Her face needed no makeup, the smile, genuine. I immediately liked her. No rings.
"Sure."
Try to get up, be a gentleman. Her hand, warm gentle, on my shoulder, "Stop, thank you for the gesture, I appreciate it." She pauses, leaving her hand extended, "I'm Jan, by the way."
"Dan, very nice to meet you." Taking her hand, briefly.
She laughs, an easy laugh that gets lots of practice, "Yeah, well, we'll see about that. Wait till you know more. Do you mind me crashing your alone time?"
"Alone time can be highly overrated."
Unfolds her Tommy Bahama chair, bag on the sand next to it, "Yeah, don't I know that."
Drops her wrap. White string bikini on a frame that does it justice. Tan lines say this isn't her regular suit. She moves to settle, uncaring of her near-nudity. My towel stays, camouflaging my approval.
"Nothing like the beach." She says, leaning back.
Her chair is just a little in front of mine, a foot away. Surprised, her nipples are erect. Long and fat. A tell. I'm interested, curious.
"I come down at all hours. Love sunsets and sunrises."
"Mmmm, I like walking the beach at night. I'm out here almost every night. So, what's in the thermos?"
"Margaritas, but I only have one cup."
She smiles easily, the green eyes intense.
"You don't look like you have anything that would kill me."
I pour, we share.
"So cold. How do you do that?"
I hold up the thermos, "It's a Yeti."
"Ohhh, those things are amazing. Great Margarita, by the way." Handing the empty cup back.
"They are and thank you."
A pause, two girls walk by, barely eighteen, blond. Thongs over tanned asses. One unremarkable, the other, perfectly round. Both have tops straining under the load.
"So, you may be wondering why I crashed your party."
"So far you are a very interesting person. I'm enjoying your company. I wasn't going to ask."
Her hand over mine, briefly, "I warned you. I'm not going to do it again."
"I'll take my chances. But since you offered."
Her hand back on the arm of her chair, leans back, eyes closed.
"I'm divorced, five years. I was a mouse when I married Karl. Nineteen, young, immature, sheltered. He's older, six years. He thought mousy and shy were cute, to a point. Then he found a tattooed bartender, fifteen years younger. I got recycled."
I sip my drink, offer her the cup. She sips, "Hope that thermos is full."
"It was. But it's going down faster than the easy girl at the frat party."
She spits her drink. Laughing hard, "That's not fair. I had a mouthful."
"So did she."
Laughs again, slaps my chest, hard, "Stop that, Dan, you're killin me."
I lean back, "Just seeing if you're still mousy and whether you have a sense of humor."
She turns, the green eyes like a magnet to my soul, that easy smile, "No, not at all, and yes, very much. May I continue?"
I refill the cup, take a sip, lean back, "Please, I'm waiting for the good stuff."
Her voice low, deep, I like it, "Sex? Just met me and you want to know about my sex life?"
Caught off guard, "No, well, okay, yes, but not now. You trapped me."
She laughs, "You walked into it, what did you expect."
"I may have to rethink your warning."
"Liar."
I laugh, "and not a good one."
"That's nice to know. Now, where was I? Oh, yeah, thirty-six, two kids, just ditched by an arrogant ass of a man. That was the lowest point of my life. I joined a group for divorced women. First five meetings I didn't say one word. The shit I heard opened my eyes. I was shocked.
"After the fifth meeting, a woman stops me in the parking lot. Around my age, very worldly, stylish dresser, big, tall but very shapely. Long story short, Angie rearranged my life. She told me that something about me drew her. Damned if I know what in my little nothing personality did that, but it didn't matter. The woman sitting next to you is happier, better adjusted than she has ever been. I've learned to take chances, go for what I want."
"Still have to work on that shyness thing, though."
Laughs, "Fuck you, Dan, give me more booze."
We drank, watched the sun pass over. I told her my tale, work too much, home too little. Never produced enough money. Dodgy friends. She got lonely, found someone else. I left out the lesbian incest part.
"Let's swim." She says, getting up.
Still a little hard, impossible to hide. What the fuck. I get up, she glances, says nothing. We walk into the low rolling waves. She has a really nice ass, bisected with a tiny string. She dives into a big one, I follow.
I stand as the wave rolls onto the beach. Jan's standing now, the bikini transparent. She has nice nipples and a tiny trimmed triangle. I glance, she catches me, we smile. I'm a little harder now.
"The waters' warm today."
Jan braces as a wave washes over us, "It's nice, I'll come in at night, nude."
Eyebrows raised. "That's interesting."
"Too much information?"
I laugh, "No, do the same thing myself. Be funny to have met that way."
Jan looks at the bulge in my speedo and then her hard nipple, "Practically there now."
"True." Not wanting to push things, happy with the pace.
Jan looks towards the beach, "You seem to have done alright. Karl left me with shit."
Curious, "What makes you say that?"
She points, "Nice house."
I smile, suspicious, "Not mine. A friend lets me live here."
She senses my unease, "I was walking one morning at dawn, saw you come out. Sorry, that sounded like I was stalking you."
"Did have that appearance."
She blushes, "That's Angie, always told me to just dive in. Life's too short to hold back. Better an apology than a lost opportunity."
I smile, "Not a bad philosophy. Kinda went that way in my own life lately."
"How's that working out?"
Thinking of my daughter, riding my cock, her fluids pouring out over our union as we gasp, "Pretty fucking well. How about you?"
She blushes again, her nipples hard, "It's been a month to remember. Amazing, simply amazing. Meeting you adds to it."
"Thank you. I think you're pretty damn special."
A long pause. I know what's coming, wait, it's her party. She takes a deep breath, moves closer, nearly touching. Those damn eyes and that smile.
"Dan, I want to go up to your house and have sex. I'm horny as hell right now and I need a good fuck."
Surprised at her candor, need. I put my arm around her waist, well above her firm, round ass, pull her to me, her arms around my neck, our lips barely touching.
"I don't want to fuck you."
She pulls back, hurt, confused, don't give her time to answer, "I want to make long love to you. But I want to know you better. I want to make love to a lover and friend, not some horny stranger."
We kiss, deep hard. The wave crashes over us as our tongues tangle. I hold her to me, letting her feel my hard cock. Her nipples press into my chest. Panting, our mutual need tempting. Jan pulls back, tears in her eyes.
"That's the most romantic thing anybody ever said."
"I mean it. I want you, right now, more than words can say, but it will be better later."
She rubbing against me, wicked smile, "You know I'm going to go home and masturbate over this, right?"
I feel her trim pussy rubbing my rigid cock, "I will too. Come to my place for dinner?"
"Of course. What should I wear, or are we going to try the nudist thing?"
My hand brushes over her ass, "Too distracting. Whatever you're comfortable in. Seven."
"Looking forward to it."

Zoe laughed, "My dad the playa!"
"You're not jealous or anything?"
"No, dad. We talked about this. I don't want you all to myself, at least sexually. If this goes somewhere, we'll talk. Until then, enjoy, but tell me all. I'll finger my pussy while you tell me how she sucks your cock."
"Pervert."
"Learned from the best."
Our conversation trailed off to less interesting topics. Zoe wished me luck.
***
Jan breezed in at six-fifty-eight, sundress, sandals, smelling clean. I paused my meal prep. Held her, nothing under the dress. She smiles, "You said, no nudity. This is as close as I can get."
We kiss, deep, lusty, needy, growing hard against her. I gently pull back.
"Help me with dinner."
We talk as we work. Touching, hands, bodies. Our pasts, our lives, our failures, triumphs. Feeling her become part of me. In her eyes, the same feeling for me. Been so long since I wanted to love.
Cleaning up, plates in the sink. She turns on the Bose, takes my hand.
