Chapter 3

I'm Mark and going to get married to the love of my life Karen. As you know we promised to abstain from sex till our wedding night. I've had a lot of temptations but have been able to 'Just Say No', it hasn't been easy but I want to prove to Karen that I can do it. I'm also quite paranoid that someone is out to get me sexually, and stop Karen from marrying me. I'm just hoping it's not Karen, she's just not that type of person, I hope.

I ran into Connie at the court house, I was there to testify at a trial. Thank God it wasn't a case that Connie was on. She is a terror in the courtroom, but a bigger terror in the bedroom. I've had some great sex with her in the last seven years. As I said earlier she would do it all.

She invited me to lunch. How could I say no to a former sexual partner and future sister-in-law? It was temptation showing it's ugly head. I needed to prove to myself that I could do it.

We ate at a cozy upscale restaurant. She asked for a booth that was out of the heavy traffic area. She said she always gets what she wants. Well almost always, she wanted me again, just one last time.

I asked her about Karen, would she fuck her sister's boyfriend and future husband?

She looked at me and said, "Yes, I would. You were my boyfriend first and until you're married you are still fair game." I love my sister, but at the same time she has something I want, "You, I like many others girls fell in love with you. We all knew it was just sex for you. For us it was a combination of sexual fantasy and love."

I also feel scared for Karen. You say you love her and want to be only with her. That's not your style Mark. I don't think you will be faithful to Karen. You two will have an argument and you'll go out and fuck the first skirt you see. That will break my sister's heart. I would rather you just leave her now. It will hurt but she will mend. If you cheat on her after marriage she will never love again. She's not like me, a realist; I just take life for what it is. Karen is a romantic, she wants love, children, she wants family, the little cottage, and the faithful husband. She deserves that kind of man, I just don't believe it's you Mark. She believes most people are inherently good. We know better Mark. We see the scum everyday.

I looked at Connie saying what was in my heart. I love Karen; I want the same things that you mentioned that she wants, loving wife, kids, close family, and even that little cottage. I want to do my best to give that to her. Connie, the sex with you was the best, but there was always something missing even as wonderful as it was. You felt it; it's called 'love.' Karen is the only person I've ever felt both sexual excitement and love. I just have to hope that my love for Karen stays. I am going to do by best to love, and honor her.

With that said I stood up and left Connie sitting there as I left the restaurant. I don't like being away from Karen; the temptation is just too great. When I'm with Karen, it's only her that I want.

After talking to Connie I wanted to, no, make that needed to see Karen. I just stopped by her boutique, walked in, went up to the counter and in front of her customer I took her in my arms and kissed her. Then looked at her smiling face and said, "I love you Karen. I just needed to tell you."

"With tears in her eyes she said, "I love you to Mark and I needed to hear it."

Her customer, an older lady probably in her fifties looked at us and said, "So you're Mark." This woman, who I didn't even know, told me, "No more playing around with other women. You have the best and nicest woman on the planet in your arms. Love her, savor her, and treat her like a goddess because she is one."

I looked at this woman who really seemed refined and said, "Yes, Madame."

Karen, looked at me and kissed me lightly again and said, "Mark, meet my mother, as you know mom, this is Mark."

I said how it was so nice to meet her and that I looked forward to dancing with her at the wedding.

She looked at me and said, "Well I can see why my daughters and their friends have always talked about you. You are a 'Don Juan, ' a 'Casanova' and not to hard on the eyes either. All I sincerely ask of you Mark is after you marry my daughter, be honest and faithful to her, and never go to bed angry at each other."

"I'll do my best Mrs ... I don't even know your name."

"Evelyn Cousin is my name; just call me Eve, in less then two weeks you can call me 'Mom.'"

"Well nice to meet you Eve, or hopefully mom."

She said her goodbyes and left the store. I looked at Karen and said, "I just had to see you, I'm sorry for bursting in like that."

"Mark, you can stop in and see me any time. While you're here I have something to tell you. I have to go to a buyer's convention for a few days. I'll be back before the wedding. Then I'm taking a week off after the wedding. I hope I need it to recover," then she smiled.

"Something is bothering me a little. Your mom's last name is Cousin? Is she related to the State Senator, George Cousin?"

"I told you I would never lie to you, yes Mark, she is related to my father, she married him,"she said as she grinned.

"Holy Shit, my future father-in-law is the State Senator. That kind of makes him my boss. No wonder you could find out everything." I then kissed her and said I would see her when she returned from her convention.

I went out with my friends since Karen would be away for a few days. None of us drove; we used a taxi because we expected to get plastered. We went from nightclub to nightclub, looking at a lot of tits and ass. The guys were trying to buy me a lap dance but I kept saying no.

One girl who was almost nude, all she had on was a pair or transparent panties came over and just sat on my lap. I just held her there. I could feel my hard-on pressing through my pants and against her pussy. If I would have taken my dick out, I would have been fucking her. I had to stop her before I came in my pants. How would I explain the wet spot to the guys? I did reach between her legs and felt two fingers slid into her pussy. I had to pull them out fast before I went any further.

I got up, excused myself and went to the restroom. I washed my face to cool down then returned to the lounge. I was feeling intoxicated, different gals came up to me and gave me hugs, I did play some grab ass, after all I am only human. I had offers for sex from six different women that evening. Believe me, it's was a lot harder to turn down then you can imagine.

The one girl who was almost naked did come back and sat on my lap again. With her pussy pushing down onto my cock that was confined in my Dockers, I did have an orgasm. God it felt good to release a load. I didn't consider this cheating. My dick never came out to play. By the way, 'No cum mess, ' I put on a condom when I was in the restroom earlier. Not to fuck anyone but to catch an ejaculation if I should have one. My friends never saw a mess on the front of my pants, but I know the dancer felt it. When your cock goes from hard to soft, they know something happened.

We left the lounge and I was pretty much plastered. My buddies dropped me off at my house and I headed for bed 'Alone.'

The next couple of days went by without too many problems. I was just waiting for Karen to get back. I missed her, even if it was only for a few days.

Boy, sometimes love sucks. Before when I wasn't in love and wanted a piece of ass, I went out and got one, sometimes two. Now when I'm hot and horny I have to find Karen, and when she isn't there, I have to depend on 'mother thumb and her four daughters'. For the last month I about wore out my hand.

I was out in the cruiser patrolling the street when I saw a car go by. I could have sworn the woman in the passenger seat was Karen. I didn't even know she was back yet. Who was the guy she was with? I had to find out, so I turned the cruiser around and followed at a safe distance.

They pulled into a valet parking lot, got out and went into an upscale restaurant. I wasn't sure what to do. It would look like I didn't trust her if I went in. Maybe there isn't anything going on, but three days before our wedding and here I'm a nervous wreck. Right now I'm not sure of anything. I checked the car plates and found that it's just a rental.

I wasn't sure what to do so; I drove around and waited for them to come out of the restaurant. They came out smiling and were holding hands, not a good sign for me. Then I decided to follow them to see where they ended up. They were headed towards Karen's apartment, Lord tell me I dreaming, this can't be happening. Karen just isn't like that, no it must be something else. My mind was swimming. I watched them enter the apartment.

I waited about five minutes, I couldn't wait any longer, my future and my life were at stake. Because of my love for this woman, I've been totally faithful. I had to know, I had to know now. I pulled up to the apartment and went to the door. I had my uniform on so I had to be careful how I acted. I knocked on the door.

A few seconds later Karen opened the door and for a brief second looked at me. Then with a big smile on her face, she said, "Mark, you're here! Oh my how I missed you." Then she gave me a long passionate kiss. I called your house, I knew you would be working but left a message on your answering machine. I'm glad you got it. Come on in, there's someone I'd like you to meet.

"Mark meet my big brother Dave. Dave, meet the only man I love, outside of family of course" as she laughed. Then she mentioned that Dave came up from Tennessee for the wedding.

Dave and I said our hellos and chit chatted for a few minutes. I then reminded Karen that I was on duty and had to leave. I shook David's hand and told him I would see him at the wedding. I then put my arms around a smiling Karen and kissed her saying I would talk to her later.

I didn't get a chance to see her on Thursday, but did talk to her on the phone. I mentioned that my buddies were going to take me out for kind of a bachelor party on Friday. And we would probably be doing some bar hopping.

She said she had a million things to do before the wedding and for me to have a good time with my friends. She had some things to talk over with her sister and bridesmaids. She would probably stop by Beth's on Friday anyway. Then she told me we only had two more days to wait.

My buddies and I went bar hopping. They told me this was my last chance for some strange and I should take it. We were all having a good time, telling jokes, telling stories about our sexual encounters. Even felt up a couple bar broads, but all in fun.

One of my buddies paid a girl to sit on my lap nude. Just for a joke, I didn't know he did it. Then all of a sudden this girl just jumps on my lap, puts her arms around me and kissed me. I started laughing and told the gal thank you, that was nice but I was getting married tomorrow. The girl smiled at me, said congratulations, gave me a light kiss and got off my lap. That was it, we all laughed but when I looked up I saw Karen with tears in her eyes walking away. I got up and tried to stop her but she was gone, I couldn't find her.
