Chapter 8

December 30, 2013

I had forgotten to bring over a change of clothes so when her alarm went off I quickly turned it off and quietly got dressed and only shook her awake to kiss her goodbye so I could go home and shower and change. I promised to call her at lunch.

At 11:30 my phone rang and the main desk said I had a call being transferred in.

I picked up and heard Kettie's voice, making my day.

"I didn't want you calling my place and not finding me. I'm in your house. I finished my laundry so I'm here doing yours and then I'll make dinner, OK?"

"That's fine, but you didn't have to do that."

"Mattie, get used to hearing this, I love you and will do anything for you."

I smiled and said, "Right back at you!"

"You have someone else in your office right now, don't you?" She asked.

"Why YES, I do!" I answered as she knew by my not saying I loved her aloud.

A Production Quantifier was in downloading from our wheel, as they do every Monday, to make up reports. It's all information they actually already have, it's just a quality control check to be sure there's no funny business.

"I brought some boneless chicken from my house and found enough stuff in your veggie bin to make a nice Chicken Chop salad, sound good?"

"Sounds perfect. I'll see you by 6, OK?" I said keeping it short.

Knowing I was going home to her made the rest of the day go by pretty fast. Of course being called "upstairs" and being given a big pat on the back for my wheels performance in December with little overtime didn't hurt either. They commended the team work of all of them and gave each of them an extra day of paid leave on top of their regular vacation. This was a give-in to the union for the curbed breaks and lunches that shop stewards were against because it "helped" management, but the crew enjoyed the fruits of their labors as well. They even noted that our 1st day back after Christmas (Friday) and Monday were banner production days, more than 15% ahead of the rest of the plant. I may have given them a new idea for the month of December for those who want to curb the overtime to spend more time with family. It definitely lowered stress in the work place and made happier employees.

When I pulled into my parking place at home I looked to see the house lit up inside and I knew Kettie would be there to greet me. It was a wonderful feeling and I could tell she enjoyed it as well. There are things in life you want to be sure of, and I never knew the security of loving someone who loved you right back. It felt real good.

After dinner when we laid out on the sofa to watch a little TV Kettie expounded on the same thing.

"Knowing you were going to come home and greet me and appreciate the dinner I made and talk with me, make me laugh, and feel loved, I felt so complete today. You know I was more or less married for 9 years, and I never felt like this, not even for a day or two. We were always there for each other, but I know I was never "sure" of him. When the day came and I found out he was seeing someone, and I knew nothing had happened between them, I didn't want to fight for him. The shadow of a doubt that always ate at me ended up coming true. As close and as tight as we were, the thousands of times we made love where I thought it couldn't get any better, I guess I always knew there was a missing piece. Now, I have the piece and we just have to fit it into our puzzle."

"Well, I know we aren't through yet. We can't sit back and watch, but I know of the piece you talk about. It's a keystone to us and it has me wondering just how big our puzzle can get. When I pulled in the drive and saw the lights on and knowing you were inside, my heart raced, it felt so good." I admitted.

We kissed and necked on the sofa, rolling around a bit until she was on top of me and we just had our eyes locked on each other. We stayed that way for 2 or 3 minutes, not hearing or caring what was on the TV, what was going on anywhere. I was just about ready to ask her if she wanted to go to bed early and she surprised me a little.

"You have me so excited, I'm so wet. Would you eat my pussy and make me crazy with your mouth before you make love to me tonight. If I could just lay back and close my eyes and think about you while you lick and taste me, it would be incredible. Then I can suck you and eat your cum. By the time we go to bed we can have a long slow fuck." She whispered to me.

"Oooo, you're a good planner!" I whispered back as she slithered off me and pushed her little Capri pants and panty down her legs before turning on the sofa waiting for me to assume the position on the carpet.

To have her legs shot straight up and vibrating while she swooned in orgasmic pleasure made me proud that I could make her so happy, but I was busting out of my house pants, her taste and reaction had me so crazy. Eventually I turned her so I could flip up onto the sofa into 69. She hungrily worked my house pants down enough to get my cock in her mouth. The next time she came she, with her hands on either side of my ass, pulled me down into her throat. Kettie was made for sex and really quite good at it.

After she got my cum and she had calmed down in our sex pile on the sofa she got to her feet and went to the bath and returned with a warm wet washcloth and a small basin. She lovingly washed my face and turned the cloth over and did hers. Then she rinsed the cloth and washed my junk, and then hers. She sorted out the clothes on the floor and helped me on with my pants and tee before getting dressed herself.

She brought the basin and cloth back and returned to plop down beside me. I couldn't help but kiss her over and over until my ardor was calmed. My balls still felt inside-out but as we sat watching TV she idly brought her hand over me and lightly rubbed along the shaft of my cock, down over my balls and back until the 10 o'clock news came on.

She got up and extended her hand saying," Come on baby, make love to me and we'll go to sleep."

After pre-bed ministrations we snuggled and spooned and eventually I was engorged and I slipped into her. As I began to move with more purpose she slipped away and pulled me on top of her. With my face in the nape of her neck and only my hips slowly flexing in and out of her we both came. There was no worry of the mess in the bed. Between her juice and my cum there was a big wet spot but we didn't seem to care and we sort of fell off each other and fell asleep.

December 31, 2013

When my alarm went off on the last day of the year I was in no mood to go to work. I was warm and snuggled in bed with the sexiest woman I have ever known and she was rolling away from me to go back to sleep after being jostled by my movement and the alarm. I wanted, so badly, to slide back in beside her, but my other passion in life, work, was calling. I trudged to the shower after pulling out clothes to wear in to the office that day.

When I opened the bathroom door I smelled coffee and I hoped it was Kettie up to see me off, but it was the coffee maker she had programmed and she was in a dead sleep. Even with the alarm, my getting out of bed, my running the shower, and just my general movement around the bed, she hadn't stirred. She was truly, all fucked out.

I closed the bedroom door and left her a note to call me. I started my car and sipped coffee until I saw the windshield clear and I went out to drive in to ChipTech.

On the way a yearn in my gut said I needed carbs and I did the drive-up at a coffee and bake shop along the way. Two sugary glazed doughnuts and a Bran muffin would satisfy and hold me until break where one of the fellows was picking up bagels and cream cheese for the Holiday.

Work was frightfully slow, like rolling an anvil uphill. My team was making their numbers, but I was stuck in 1st gear, anxious to get home and hold the woman I was loving more by the minute.

Just after 10 my intercom buzzed and reception said I had a call.

"I'm sorry I never woke up this morning, I don't know why I was so tired." She said sarcastically lying.

"If you think I wanted to leave your side, you are so wrong. My day is dragging. Have you had coffee yet?" I asked.

"It's just brewing now. After that I'll pick up and go out and get a few things for a late celebration of the New Year. We'll have a light dinner? ... OK?"

"Sure, as long as we're together, it doesn't matter."

"I thought like a ham, pepperoni, and cheese bread, and then later, towards midnight, shrimp, maybe some oysters." She suggested.

"Just the two of us, right?" I reaffirmed. "That'll be fun."

"Yes, it WILL. We'll go to bed at 11:55 so you can be in me, and we can be one for the New Year. Is that silly?"

"No, not at all. We end the year and begin the year making love. Isn't that the dream?" I answered and asked.

"I have an idea for the time after dinner until midnight." She volunteered.

"Mmmmm, I bet you do!" I said very smart-assed.

"How about if I man-scape you?"

"How serious are we talking here?" I wondered, fearing a razor in that area.

"Nice and smooth from your bikini line to your penis and then, trimmed back nice and neat, and shaved a little under your sack. I like to lick your ass too, you know." She said in that sexy growl.

"You know I have to work here! Walking around with a tent in my pants might be a bit embarrassing!"

"Honey, you asked, so I told you!" She giggled.

"Can I trust you with a razor?"

"Do you think I would hurt that area at ALL?" She said her voice showing concern.

"No, of course not. Why do you think I'm even considering it? You've haven't steered me wrong yet as far as pleasures. I know you wouldn't hurt that." I chuckled.

"OK, I've got to go. I've got some fresh seafood to buy and hot sauce to make. Oh, and some knife sharpening as well." She said with a long cackle before saying. "I love you and will see you tonight", before handing up.

I really was a little leery of her intentions, but my thought was serious that she seemed to know best of thoughts sexual and I trusted her. I had man-scaped a little in the past because my "bush" billowed out of my swim trunks at one time. I also had to admit, I liked the way some porno actors looked all trimmed down. (Not that I EVER looked at porn, not me!)

For the rest of the day each time I had to urinate I looked down at my crop and tried to envision it with a trim. I knew from hearing a friend at a bachelor party tell us how it made you more aware of your "junk" all day long each time you moved, especially for the first few weeks. I was ready for a new adventure to go along with my new found love.

I was pretty randy by the time I got home but the smell of fresh bread in the oven was incredible, it really did smell like home.

We kissed and hugged and then she shooed me off so she could finish in the kitchen asking me to change, but not to shower yet. Then she looked over her reading glasses stuck on the end her nose and said, "When I suck your dick for the first time I want man-taste."

She cackled again as she sent me away to change, knowing I would be excited right away.

When I came back out she motioned me to sit in the kitchen with her, and she had poured vodka for both of us.

"Now when I spoke to you before I didn't call this what we call it in the east so you wouldn't get the wrong idea. When that comes out of the oven it will be garbage bread. They call it that because deli's used to save their ends of cold cuts and cheeses and would fold them into bread dough and bake it." She said as she opened the oven.

"We call that Stromboli." I said as I could not get over how good it smelled.

"Well, Stromboli is made with Italian Bread dough and it's more a turnover, but you'll like it either way, I'm sure. Now while that cools a bit I'm putting some of my leftover sauce in the Nuke and we'll be able to dip it. Sound good?"

"There's only ONE thing I'd rather eat right now." I said with a big smile.

'Oooo, that's later after we shower, after your trim."

"So, you're planning on me for dessert, BEFORE the trim?" I wondered (excitedly).

"Honey, (first time she called me that) How do I do a trim with that thing standing up all proud and aching, tempting me to go after it? I calm him down and by the time I'm done with the trim he's beginning to feel frisky and we shower. You figure out the rest from there. We just have to be ready for 11:45. We get in bed and at midnight you and I are one, starting the year with a bang." She said, not even looking at me as she laid a loaf out on the cutting board and grabbed the door on the dinging microwave.

By the time we climbed into my bed at just before 12 I had a delicious dinner of "garbage bread", one of her sexy blowjobs, a semi-frightening shave of my genitalia, a sexy rub of depilatory cream to prevent infections and ingrowns, a long hot shower with her where I put Kettie on the counter in the bath as she dried and gave her pussy a licking she will be telling folks about for years, then a combination hand, tit, and blowjob before shrimp and oysters.

We started watching the Ryan Seacrest, Dick Clark New Years show and before I knew it we were face to face in bed with her wet tight pussy wrapped around my cock.

As I slowly stroked in and out of her she proceeded to tell me how much she loved me, how much she wanted me, and how wonderful making love with me was. She did everything except propose and if she had I would have accepted. I still knew we had a lot of roads to travel before that might happen, but I could not imagine falling OUT of love with her. She is so complete, gentle, patient, and inventive as a lover I knew I needn't look any further for MY perfect woman. Believe me, this is coming from a man who NEVER intended on falling in love, was never going to get married and certainly was never going to settle down.

January 1, 2014

I didn't have to be into the ChipTech plant until 10 so I was able to sleep in a little. We set the alarm for 9:00 a.m., but we were spooning and screwing at 8:30 after we both did our morning pee's. Afterward Kettie sighed.

"We sleep in our own beds for a couple nights now, huh? We were spoiled being together so much. I suppose we should get back into a routine. So we think Friday and Saturday nights staying over?"

"I thought Sunday too, as long as it's here so I can go to work Monday morning" I added.

"Then I can clean up and do our laundry before I go and lock up." She added.

"You don't have to be a maid for me."

"Don't be silly, if I wake up here I'll have some dirty clothes and so will you from the weekend, plus changing the bed. I have Mondays to myself until I start talking to dealers around noon and then do my conference calls Monday night. Oh ... reminds me, ... I may have a HUGE deal come down this Monday. I could make a 150K or more if I can kite a transfer for 12 hours. I'll need around 60K to pull it off and I've only got about 28 liquid. I've got to see if this guy will work with me."

"Isn't kiting illegal?" I wondered.

"Yes and no, you have to be creative if you're working in two different economys. One sale may come through a Japanese company. Don't worry, I'll protect myself and if it doesn't work, I'll just have to do it on a smaller scale and hope they hold the merchandise for me. Let's not get into it, this is no time for stress."

"So, what time is dinner tonight?" I wondered.

"Let figure for 7 and you come as soon as you can. You'll probably work till 6 anyway, huh?"

"Probably, and I shouldn't stay late, I really need to catch up on sleep." I complained.

"Get your rest tonight and tomorrow night and then when you stay with me on Friday night we have no alarms to set, no place to be. Just remember, I'm not safe for the next 4 to 6 days until I know the shot is working, so bare pussy nookie is out, but I think we'll get by. You can use a condom if you HAVE to right?" She warned.

"How do you KNOW it's working?"

"My GYNO will look up there I guess, check for a mucus shield? I really forget. I'm 3 days into it and no side effects. There IS something they can check to see if it's done what it has supposed to, I really forget. My follow-up is on the 4th. Then I'm safe for 12 weeks until my next shot. The only side effect is irregular periods, but before I just stopped having them altogether. But, I'm only going to do this for a few years, then you should get snipped."

"Suppose I want to have kids." I asked facetiously.

"I doubt you'll have them with anyone but me at this point, and we have a way to go for those decisions." She answered confidently.

"Sure, and by the way, thanks for scaring the shit out of me. Getting married and having kids are two things I NEVER thought I might even THINK about."

"Now be honest, you HAVE at least thought and considered it now, right?" She asked with puppy eyes.

"Believe it or not, yes, and I'm sure my guardian ego angel is jumping off a building right now." I laughed.

"Neither you or I should be thinking that far ahead, but since we aren't 18 anymore, it has to enter the thought process." She said as the alarm went off.

"I should go get in the shower. Will you make coffee?"

"Of course, um ... want me to shower with you, make you late for work?" She giggled.

"Don't think I'm not tempted, but we better give Dick and Jane a little rest I don't need to fall asleep at work." I said with a little snicker, but I was dead serious.

A self imposed "dry spell" was probably called for seeing how we had physically made love to each other in so many ways over the past few days. Not that one might ever get sick of it, or bored with it, but absence does make the heart grow fonder. Even I knew that from other short lived relationships, and all of them were strictly sexual relationships, feelings didn't really enter those equations. Even those times of spending 2 or 3 weeks with one woman, once the "honeymoon" was over having sex 3 or 4 times a day dwindled to once a day and then to 3 or 4 times a week at which point you realized you had no other connection with that person and "moving on" became the norm with no broken hearts or hard feelings. Part of all of that was my never opening up to show all of my cards. Kettie had seen all of my cards, both Jokers and even the rank of the hands and rules card. She had seen it all, and I had seen all of her, as well. I was becoming more and more interested in her business dealings and delving into her character more and more.

January 2 – 5, 2014

After sleeping alone for a couple nights I really missed the warmth of Kettie's body next to me in her or my bed. Sex became heavy petting and oral sex, and she even talked me into using a condom on a night when she just wanted more of me than we had planned. But, by Sunday night when she slept at my house we actually spent a night and Monday wake-up without sex of any kind and neither of us felt slighted. It was our love and respect for each other that made being together special. Obviously if she was sure her contraceptive injection had taken effect it would have made a difference. But, we were both satisfied to just be with each other sharing our love and affection and extreme happiness of just being a couple.

January 6, 2014

After I had showered and dressed for work Kettie had come out to kiss me goodbye. We hugged long and heartily before I spoke.

"I've got a couple long days ahead of me so I may not see you until Wednesday, but I will call you during the day." I said as she put a sad face on.

I'm busy Tuesday and Wednesday nights. How about we grab a bite and a drink at the Pool Bar on Thursday?" She asked.

"I'll talk to you before then, but let's work for 7 on Thursday, OK?" I asked as she winked and knew we would probably stay together Thursday through the weekend.

I knew when she said she was "busy" Tuesday and Wednesday nights, it meant webcam business, and I was OK with that now that I knew she was soloing and it was going to be profitable.

"You aren't uncomfortable with me working those nights. I'll make a lot of money."

"No, as long as no one from here can see you and you do your little disguise." I said.

"If someone we knew found out would you be ashamed?" She asked.

"Not ashamed, just put out by the explaining we might have to do." I said.

"WE?"

"Of course we, I'm with you on whatever you do." I said.

"That wouldn't be a deal breaker?" She asked.

"Kettie, I love you. Don't ask questions like that. How much money can you make playing with yourself in 2 nights next week?"

"I think 500 to 700 dollars." She said with a proud smile.

"Aren't you going to do it if you were alone anyway?" I asked with a smirk.

"Probably, I'll do it alone on Monday night.' She said giggling. "I'll be missing you."

"So what's the harm?" I said.

"I was thinking the other day, once I get 10K in a separate investment account I'm going to be all yours, no sharing with the web cam. I just want that cushion in case business falls through for a bit. With the connections I have now, because I pay cash all the time with money transfers, I get first shot at a lot of stuff. I see no way I can't pay myself 50 to 60K in any year. When deals like the TV flood come along, it just pads my workable cash, and with that I'm set and ready to buy most anything offered. That makes me happy. I don't have a lot of the other expenses, like overhead and employees. I barely even leave the house, a tank of gas lasts me a couple weeks. My 60 K is like 75 or 80 to other people doing the same who have to run around. With drop shipping, my freight is running under 3% and comparable businesses spend 6 to 10%. The advantages of paying cash! I have receipts for everything and I don't care where they put their cash as long as my customers get the merchandise. Right now I have one guy who will take as many TV's as I can ship, any size, any brand. One of my dealers buys up all the "last-year models" he can get his hands on. Manufacturer's want their new stock in warehouses, not the old. I may buy 500 sets on Monday night and if I roll them over Tuesday morning, I'll buy another 1000. That will drain me to nothing until I move them, but I bet I can get paid by Wednesday for most of them. I can keep rolling it over for a few days until I want to sit on the cash. If I can get my working capital up to 200K I'll be able to do more business with some of these guys. Paying cash has definite advantages."

"You aren't kidding around are you? You can put your hands on all that cash?"

"Buying the 500 will drain my working capital dry, but I think I can turn them over for cash to this one distributor. If I time it well, I can get the deal made with him before I even pay for them."

"Just pray these guys don't get to know each other and cut you out." I said worrying about exactly that.

"They know about each other, but interstate fair trade laws prohibit him from buying distressed goods from the same source where his new sets come from. Something to do with insurance laws and other stuff. What they do is run the last year's sets as loss leaders and try to up sell the new ones with new features. Totally legal as long as he has stock on the lower price point." She explained.

"Is this where you spoke of "kiting"?" I wondered.

"Yes, but I won't do anything expressly illegal. Maybe slightly side-stepping, but nothing I could be charged with. I've checked it all out with legal people."

"Just be careful and stay on the right side of the law." I warned her.

"I want to make a lot of money, but I won't jeopardize you and I, for sure." She said confidently.

January 9, 2014

Although I had spoken by phone with Kettie all 3 days during the week, by Thursday morning I couldn't wait to see her. When I spoke with her in my break she was busy on a conference call and signed off with me after a quick hello and phone kiss. Then I got tied up at the office with a computer glitch and didn't get home until almost 7. I just had time to wash my face and hands before going to the Pool Bar. When I went through the door I saw her at a table with an empty glass in front of her.

She stood and we kissed without too much of a PDA and we sat, but not before motioning to the bartender for a round. We were regular enough that he knew what we wanted.

"I'm sorry I'm late. I can see you got here early hoping I would too." I said hoping she wasn't getting impatient.

"Not a problem, I actually got here at 6:30, I wanted to celebrate all my money clearing this week. I doubled my capital twice this week and I ended up with the 200K I hoped. In two buys I emptied a warehouse and they were able to ship to one address. If I have competition right now, they are cash poor to start the year and I've developed a great alliance with a big buy-out house. He's working on a deal for phones and tablets and I've already been sniffing around for a buyer. So I'm real happy right now. I'm free to get some things going on many fronts right now, but I'm going to be cautious watching the economy so I don't get burned like before."

"Enough business talk, I've missed you like crazy and couldn't last another day without seeing you." I told her as she gripped my hands even tighter.

She leaned in and whispered, "You don't think I'm going to let you out of my sight for the next 12 hours do you?"

I just smiled and winked joyous to know the love we would make soon.

"My doctor sees no reason why we should have to worry about conception beyond the normal risks. I saw him today and all of my other precautionary tests came back OK. I definitely the healthiest of all the Campbell-Mason women."

"Campbell-Mason? I never knew you had a hyphenated name."

"I usually drop the Mason unless it's some sort of legal thing. Campbell-Mason sounds so pretentious. Doesn't Kettie Campbell-Mason sound like a snooty Brit?"

"I'm embarrassed that I didn't know that. Imagine how intimate we've been and I didn't know your last name." I said as a dig to her "get to know your mate" prerequisite to intimacy.

She got my dig and leaned up close to say, "Maybe I shouldn't sleep with you tonight until I get to know you better ... fucker! I don't sleep with strangers and you know why I have my rules."

"Only making a point my love, you were so adamant to learn about me and you held that back."

"Have I held back ANYTHING else? Mattie you have my everything." She said almost as an oath.

"Don't get so defensive, I was only kidding around. I don't think we have any secrets, at least none that were held back intentionally." I said as I stroked her hand.

Then she curiously looked me in the eye and asked, "That little harlot Marianne hasn't tried to seduce you again?"

"NO! Where did you get that idea?"

"Last week one night when I was at your house getting ready to cook and was waiting for you to come home it was dark. At about 5:30 and I saw headlights out front and I peaked behind the curtain to be sure it was you before I was going to strip for you, I hadn't started dinner yet and I didn't expect you so early so I thought it might be a nice surprise. I look out and it was Marianne! I think she was confused because your car wasn't there but, the lights were on and music was playing like someone was obviously there. She came up to the door and rang the bell and then knocked when I didn't answer. She even walked around back and tried to look through the slider on the deck. She got back in her car and sat out front for another 10 minutes, then she got out again and rang the bell and knocked. I don't think she was there to collect your mortgage payment."

"What do I have to do with this? She hasn't come on to me, called me, or approached me. If she did, I would reject her with great exception, no matter what, AND I would tell you about it immediately. I'll always be as transparent as possible. Kettie I love you and you alone and have no intention of doing anything to make you doubt me." I swore to her.

"I've been cheated on before, made a fool of before and I may be a little wary."

"Love is trust Ket, don't ever doubt me."

"I really don't. It's just she was so, well seemed so, desperate to see you that night I let my mind wander. I'm sorry. I know your heart, I really do." She insisted.

"I never had any interest in her besides a piece of ass, and I turned her down at her first try. The three other times I was with her, she came to me and was the aggressor."

"Should I say something to her?" She asked.

"I wouldn't. If she doesn't figure it out and tries to hook-up again I will summarily shoot her down, no matter how she presents herself. You are all I want and need."

After a few more drinks Kettie brought both hands to the top of the table and took mine in them.

"Did you do anything with the basket of clothes I left on top of the dryer Monday morning?"

"Yes, I put them away. I gave you the top right drawer in the lowboy and the second drawer in the highboy in the bedroom. You have 4 pairs of undies and a couple tops in the lowboy, and some heavy slacks and 2 pairs of Capri pants in the highboy. You can come over tonight without going home."
