GRACE bill

chili pepper met Grace during his last semester of college at a university in MD, a couple months before he would graduate in the spring of 1978. He met her at his dorm, or ‘ mod'as it was called, which was pretty lots known as company central around the complex. It was a very modern dormitory for its meter : it was co-ed and consisted of apartment housing four or six students in each. Chili's housed six, with two two-baser way, two I, two baths and a kitchen and living area.

Chili's five roommate that year consisted of Yakov, a Russian scholarly person who was seldom seen ; Kenny, a pot head trombonist in the marching lot ; Mitch, a all over asshole no one could brook, but who fortunately spent about of his time at a Jewish frat house ; wienerwurst, a fruity bass player in a disco radical ; and Benny.

Benny was going to college on the five-and-a-half-year plan. Although he entered college a year ahead of chilly, he wouldn't graduate until the following school class. Chili and benne had roomed together for two years and had gotten along well. They both were mutant rooter and athlete and played on the hall intramural football, basketball and softball game team together. They especially clicked in basketball because Benny was a gun and liked to spud, and Chili was a dependable passer who would look for the open man.

Their mod was a democratic post for several understanding. The music was always playing, the bar was always receptive, there was a bong on the tabular array and usually person was ready to political party. But the primary intellect was benne : He was the local seed of pot and drugs for many undergraduates.

The roommates would always know when a loading of something was due because the wall phone would ring off the hooking and the callers would be asking for Benny. Then before hanker Benjamin Kubelsky would come home at Nox from his part-time job at Safeway carrying a large embrown newspaper publisher sack with food market detail sticking out of the top. But beneath the market was the bundle everyone had been calling about.

chilli wasn't really into drugs but did smoke a petty weed now and then. As a graduating senior he was in political party mode much of the clock time and it was disengage, there was always a shoebox lid of marijuana cigarette on the table. Benny, on the other hand, would share of his various ware on a regular basis and although he usually had a buzz on, he managed to control his usage fairly well.

That final semester the dormitory softball team made it to the playoffs and had a semi-final game scheduled for a Thursday good afternoon after class—prime ‘ Let's get our foreland up for the weekend'time—and chili con carne, as team chieftain and shortstop, had practically begged Benjamin Kubelsky to please abstain and show up to the game straight. But Benny showed up to the game at the very last hour and took his position at one-third base with a joint in his mouth. Chili was pissed off initially but didn't have to worry. In the top of the for the first time inning an opposing batter lifted a pop fly deep behind third base base in clog up land. Benny sprinted after the fly, barely reached it in time, and with his rear to the field of operations Dove for the ball, caught it, rolled over and rebound up with the Lucille Ball safely in his baseball glove and the joint still safely clutched between his lips.

One day during chili's final semester he met saving grace for the first meter at his dorm. There was a pocket-size radical hanging around, casually listening to euphony, talking and drinking beer. Since the coordination compound was coed, there were always new lady friend around, acquaintance of admirer, guests, whatever, but good will was a new face, and Chili was attracted to her immediately. She was slim and athletic-looking. She had long legs, medium-size perky tits and shoulder-length auburn hair. Her jeans were tight on her fag and Chili wanted to pare them right off. He got himself a beer and introduced himself and started chatting her up. He could tell within minutes that this was a fair sex he wanted to get to know. But soon he was let down and backed off. free grace was with Benny.

‘ hoot !'Chili thought. He'd had relationship with missy throughout college, of grade, but nigh occurred out of horniness and appliance and none had turned into anything even remotely serious. And here he meets this girl to whom he is immediately and intensely attracted—her looks, her consistency, her smile, her conversation, not to mention the tingling between his legs—and she's off-limits.

Chili couldn't remember seeing Benny with a substantial girlfriend, just a few sleep-overs here and there. And he didn't know how he'd met Grace…was she one of his customers ? ... but he had to take on, at least he had good taste.

So he backed off, and admired her from afar as she came and went with Benny during the residuum of the semester, and pondered what might experience been. And then he graduated and moved on and forgot about her. Or at least he tried to.

-- --

After he graduated, Chili travelled the U.S. government in his Mercury Comet for a few month, finally settling in a medium-sized urban center on the sou'-west slide of Florida. He liked the laid-back life-style of living on the disconnect. He took a sales agreement job for a steer marketing company selling direct mail advertising at the time when the mass medium was relatively new and growing by leaps and spring. Within a year he was capable to buy the territory and had exclusive rights to sell the company's products. Over the next several years he grew his resole proprietary into a thriving low business and was earning over six digit for himself. He bought a waterfront cottage on a contributive that flowed into the Intracoastal waterway. Life was good.

Chili had had a few human relationship, and one even lasted a twelvemonth, but nothing permanent wave. His business kept him very busy. He'd lost touch with Benny—as he had with many of his college buddies—but he thought about him once in a spell. And he thought about Grace of course. He wondered if they were still together.

-- --

Benny had graduated a semester after chili, and moved in with Grace. He started a landscaping business enterprise with a childhood friend : set Teddy, a druggie. Ted's father owned a gravid nursery in the town where they'd grown up, which was only about xx nautical mile from the campus, and he helped them get started and acquire supplying and equipment. At first they'd rented a theater in a subdivision and they gradually acquired more and more equipment—trucks, preview, tools, tractors—and the neighbors started complaining about it. So he and Ted went out looking to buy a piece of prop where they could park and store everything. They found a 1.5 acre piece of ground that was partially wooded and had a long turd driveway leading to an old, broken-down, abandoned sign. They paid $ 57,000 for it, parked everything there and got the neighbors of their backs.

In a once-in-a-lifetime slash of luck, and unbeknownst to Benny and Ted, the whole surrounding area was soon being rezoned industrial and gravid commercial due to the expansion of the international airport a few nautical mile away. Out of nowhere, in less than two years they were presented with an offer of $ 1.1 million for the property.

Jack Benny and Ted took their immediate payment and purchased dwelling house on gravid property in the semi-rural outskirt of town. There they had their privacy and plenty of place to park all of their equipment.

chili con carne's parents were getting onetime and had decided to downsize, so he scheduled a trip back home to go through and clean out the home to help them develop to sell. While he was there he bought a twin tickets for a football game at his alma mater and took his Dad to the game.

Chili was waiting in the beer blood at the concession stand when he heard a familiar voice calling his name.

"CHILI…."boomed the vocalisation from a few feet away. He recognized Benny's voice immediately.

"Hey, benne, how the hell are you, man ?"Chili asked, and they hugged. benne looked like he'd put on a few pounds.

The game was still in the get-go one-quarter but chilli could tell that Benny was already pretty toasted. He remembered going to the games when they were in college, the tailgating, sneaking in booze, and they were usually so drunk by halftime that they couldn't even tell which team had the ball.

They chatted for a few minutes in line of descent and they exchanged business batting order. Chili mentioned his parents and that he might be coming north again in a couple up month. Benny said to let him know when and he could continue with him and saving grace at their new family. Be prissy to stimulate you stay with us for a few days, he said.

"Did you and Grace get married ?"Chili asked.

"Nah,"benni said."We've talked about it but that's about it. Permanently engaged I guess you could say."

They got their beers and went their classify ways back to their respective seats.

-- --

The succeeding clock time chili pepper came north he never even called Jack Benny. It was getting close to the holidays and he thought it would be too awkward, plus he had his own house indebtedness. But a few month later, after his parents had sold their house and moved south, he took sesame up on the offer.

That spring Chili planned a route tripper north. He would natter his parents at their new household in North Carolinas, his sister in Virginia, and Jack Benny in MD. He would stay with his parents one night—that's about all he could stand—and with his sister and brother-in-law for a couple Day, and then on to Benny's. At Benny's he would take on it by ear : it could be a lot of fun or, after so much clip, it could be like a eldritch scene from the motion picture ‘ Pacific stature ’.

What attracted Chili most of all to the visit was his curiosity. How was Benny living these days after his gravy ? He knew he had a successful occupation, but what was his life like ? Was he still a head ? Still dealing ? Was he happy ? And what about grace of God ? Was she ?

It was belated Fri afternoon and Chili had been in the car over five hours when he arrived at Sesamum indicum's house. It was a little hard to line up. It was out in the countryside and he missed a number and had to backtrack before finding it. He drove down a driveway through a tunnel of tree and then curved to the left. The house was bigger than he expected, a brick two-story with a gabled roof, dormers upstairs and a three-car garage. There was a silver Toyota in the driveway. Chili heard a big dog barking nearby. He parked but didn't get out of the car right away. He thought immediately that a boastfully, savage dog would probably have in mind only one thing to Benjamin Kubelsky : protection.

"Wait a minute, Chili !"he heard a female voice phone call. He looked over to the side of meat porch and spotted state of grace behind the cover holding the shoe collar of a white High German shepherd."Let me pack care of the dog !"Then she disappeared for a consequence until the front door opened and Grace emerged without the canine.

"It's okay now,"she said, walking toward the car, and Chili opened his threshold and got out. grace of God gave him a hug, which surprised him. It was the 1st metre they'd really match and he felt the soft pressure of one of her breasts against his sternum."Nice to see you, chilli. How was your stumble ?"

He ran down the boring contingent of his five-hour drive on rural two-lanes and the interstate and the pitiful mixing pipe bowl around the Virginia/D.C. line. He got his bag off the backseat and they walked inside.

"sesame's not rest home yet, but he should be soon,"grace of God said."We've looking forward to your visit. Would you like something to drink ?"They sat at the kitchen tabular array and sipped insensate boozing and made lowly talk.

Grace's auburn hair was longer, falling down the top of her back with a wind of curlicue. Her torso was still lop, tight denim snug against her farsighted stage and cute butt and a soft red shirt. Somehow though, her aspect looked different than he remembered : still attractive, but in an older and more life-threatening way. She wore an engagement ring with a boastfully, oval adamant on her left hand.

"You look great, thanksgiving,"Chili said. He gently squeezed her bicep and added,"Good shape, too. Have you been working out ?"

"Thanks, Chili, yeah, I work out some. Plus I get batch of exercising trying to keep up with Benny, that keeps me running."

"Really, how so ?"

"You know Benny as well as I do, Chili."

They heard the Rudolf Diesel truck when it pulled into the drive. Then the cab doorway slammed and the front man room access of the house opened with a bang.

"In the kitchen, Benny !"grace of God called out.

"chili pepper ! …."came Benny's booming articulation from the foyer and they heard him bounding down the Radclyffe Hall. He walked into the kitchen, plopped a tray of steaks on the return and gave chile a give birth hug.

"We need beer !"Benny yelled, and walked to the fridge and pulled out three feeding bottle of Molson.

Benny looked like a landscaper. He had on colly jeans, a yellow jersey with his fellowship's K logotype on it, knead boots and a Baltimore Orioles cap with his blond hair splayed out on the sides. They sat at the table and talked as they drank their beers.

"Well, I'm dirty and I smell, so I'm going to get a shower bath and then send away up the grill. I got us some big, fat juicy steaks,"Benny said."You up to tread, Grace ?"

"Yes, honey. Baked potatoes and a giant salad."

"All right !"Benny barked, and left the room.

chilli and state of grace gathered the food for thought and the prick and the condiments for the cookout.

-- --

They had More beers on the patio while the marrow cooked, then ate at the picnic tabular array under an oak tree. The food was delicious and the beers kept going down easy. chili pepper thought he now knew where Benny's supernumerary free weight had come from. Grace's consistency was okay and she was putting away the beers pretty well herself. The sun was going down and there was a lull in the conversation.

"Wan na get buzzed ?"Sesamum indicum asked. He looked at Chili and then at Grace.

"I don't know,"Chili said."I haven't done that shit since college."

"Ah, come on, for old clip'sake. Grace, should we testify chilly the Vapor Room ?"

"Uh, I don't know Jack Benny. Don't you have to go to sour early in the morning at that estate account you guys just picked up ?"

"I just have to go out and get the crews started. Got ta make sure the knuckleheads know what to do and don't screw anything up. And Teddy will be there."

"Lotta help he'll be,"Grace said sarcastically."Maybe till the bars open."

"seminal fluid on thanksgiving, let's display chilli a good time."

Chili thought the aspect on Grace's face was one of dubitable anticipation. She looked at him and surrendered a resigned smile.

-- --

They went into a room behind the garage. It was a lounge with a magnanimous leather sofa and chair and a wet bar. It had a tile floor and all the windows were closed and it smelled like weed. Benny took beers out of the mini-fridge and handed one to blessing and chilly, who were seated on the couch. He placed a brick pad on the floor in the center of the room and then we walked out the side door.

"What's he doing ?"Chili asked.

"You'll see,"Grace said."Get prepare to study a ride."

Benny returned a minute later with a shallow metal bucket and a three-foot dried-out plant with slender rigid arm. He placed the bucket on the brick pad and then took out a twosome of hand clippers and started cutting base and stalks and twigs off of the plant and tossing them in the bucketful.

"My own crop !"Jack Benny said, as he clipped away.

Grace rose from the sofa and walked over to a small bookcase and turned on the stereo. This was back in the sidereal day when FM radio rock stations would make for entire albums start-to-finish one after the early without interruptions for hours on end. Grace adjusted the wireless and the volume and ‘ Nature's Way'from ‘ The 12 dream of Dr. Sardonicus'poured out of the speakers.

When the bucket was about half-full Benny struck a wooden match and tossed it onto the desiccated kindling. It caught fire in a flash, flaming up at foremost, but then it lowered to a slacken, controlled suntan as Benny stoked it and continued feeding Thomas More objet d'art onto it. The room quickly filled with a slow fog of smoke.

Grace noticed chili con carne's bottleful was empty so she took it out of his hand and retrieved him another from the fridge. She handed him the beer and sat back down beside him, a little faithful than before.

"Let me get a picture,"Sesamum indicum said."move a little closer."

thanksgiving scooted closer to Chili, her body now touching boot against his, and making his body inadvertently tense up up.

"Don't worry,"state of grace said to him."He always does this."

benne moved in finisher with a Polaroid camera, focusing, framing a shot through the haze. Chili was already getting silly and he felt a dry burn mark in his eyes. But Grace's torso felt good next to his.

They kept drinking beers and absorbing smoke in their lungs and their clothes and their hair. Chili thought the stereoscopic photograph sounded like a symphony orchestra, even though it all was coming out of two tatty speakers. The radio kicked into another album, ‘ straight Up'by Badfinger ; Chili had heard the LP many times—it was one of his old favorites—but this time he swore he heard things in the music that he'd never ever heard before.

visual sensation was getting fuzzy. Between the gage inhaled and the weed in the air, focusing was like trying to land a small plane in a blizzardy windstorm. Chili wasn't used to this, he hadn't smoked pot in years. Benny was getting high, chili remembered the sign, but was cruising along, okay so far. Grace seemed to be just going along for the ride.

"delay hands !"Jack Benny barked, camera back in hand.

Grace smiled and took Chili's bridge player in hers. She leaned her head on his articulatio humeri.

"Nice !"benny said, and snapped the photo.

The mellow melody ‘ Flying'came out of the speakers and chilly thought to himself : I sure am !

Benny opened three more beers and cut up some more kindling for the fire and fed it all into the bucket and the fire kicked up and crackled.

"I better let Jojo out. I'll be good back,"grace said, and left to tend to their dog.

"How do you feel, Chili ?"Benny asked.

"You mean when the room's not spinning ?"

"Ah, just like the good old days !"Benjamin Kubelsky laughed.

chili con carne could barely see the far rampart of the way through the clouds. The beer was going down easy, tasting unspoiled and soothing his toasty throat. They had opened two to a greater extent by the time state of grace returned.

"Let's withdraw off our shirts,"Benny said, his representative loud and aggressive.

Chili looked at him."Take off our shirts ?"

"benni, are you for sure about this ?"grace said.

"Sure I'm for sure !"he said, ripping off his shirt and exposing his gut."free grace, unbutton Chili."

She glanced at chile's center and started unbuttoning his shirt from the top down.

"What's going on ?"chilli asked.

"We're gon na have some fun,"Benny said, and he plopped down on the sofa on the other side of grace of God. She was now between them and Benny started pulling her shirt off as soon as she'd undone the endure button of Chili's shirt.

"What kind of fun ?"

"We're all gon na let laid !"Benny shouted, and gulped his beer. Grace's top was off now, her cut, creamy bra barely surrounding her firm breasts.

"Unhook her bra, Chili !"

good will turned so her backrest was to Chili. He did as he was told and handed the bra to sesame, who tossed it on the floor and picked up the camera. Grace took chili's beer out of his hand, took a big swig and handed it back.

"snap her titties !"

"What ?"

"Do it, Chili. You know you've always wanted to."

Grace grabbed his hand and brought it to her bosom."It's okay, don't engagement it,"she said."Let's go along with it."

Chili thought to himself, ‘ Grace seems resigned to the musical theme, so what the hell ’. He gently squeezed and thumbed her nipple and felt it stiffen. benne snapped another picture and the print slid out the front of the photographic camera.

"Grace…"

Chili felt her handwriting unbuckling his bang, then unsnapping his jeans and unzipping him. She slid onto the floor on her knees between his legs in front of him.

"Lift up,"she said softly, so he lifted his fag and she pulled his bloomers and boxers down to the floor.

His hammer was already half-mast. Grace stroked him with one hand and kneaded his screwball with the early and Chili sighed in fuzzy pleasance. Within thirty instant he was arduous and long.

"suction it !"Benny ordered, and when Grace took chili con carne's dick into her mouth the flash went off and another photograph slid out of the camera.

chile put his custody on her berm and massaged them as she sucked him. He liked the spirit of her skin in his script and was soon rubbing the tendon in her neck and running his fingers through her hair.

She was proficient. He cherished the cushiony grip of her brim around his peter and gently drop his groin into her bobbing head. He didn't know if he should come in her mouth, this was all new to him : having sex with another man's woman while the other man directed. He tried to draw a safe proportion between holding back his ejaculation and gently fucking her beautiful mouth—but before long he knew that fucking her beautiful sassing was taking precedence. He grabbed the backbone of her forefront and started swinging his missile into her oral fissure with greater force. Grace slurped as he fucked her face and chile grunted with each of his poke. He let out a long, low groan when he came and his body shook as he released his semen, guessing after shot, and he held her header in his hands as he unloaded. She kept his cock in her mouth and continued sucking until he was discharge. When she removed her mouth from his cock the solitary trace of cum was a droplet at the corner of her mouth.

"darn, that was hot !"benny said, and snapped another smoky photo of chilli's unworthy cock inches from saving grace's silhouetted head.

saving grace slowly rose from her knees and was standing in movement of Chili.

"chilly, take off her pants !"

good will moved closer, her crotch now a foot in front of his face. chili looked up at her heart through the wafts of smaze. She nodded and ran her fingers through her whisker. He reached for her. He unbuttoned and unzipped and pushed down her jeans. She wore blank panties which she herself removed, revealing a short, neatly-trimmed reddish-brown growth.

"Eat it, Chili !"Jack Benny said.

grace inched closer and chilli slid his naked tooshie to the edge of the sofa. On the stereo Badfinger was singing about how there is no real flawlessness, but staring at the sumptuous crack before him, chili con carne begged to take issue. He sunk his tongue into her and another flash lamp bulb went off.

Chili felt thanksgiving's hands on his shoulders and her groin gently swaying toward him, aiding his access and helping his tongue reach maximum deepness. He licked her inner Strategic Arms Limitation Talks and smelled her pungent tang and she sighed when he nibbled on her swelling clit. He clutched his finger's breadth and the palm tree of his manpower around her raw ass.

For the next few minutes…time seemed to barely incite even as the music played on…Grace fucked chilly's face and he sucked on her rigid meat with a vengeance.

"Oh, God…"she groaned. Her body quake and she dug her finger's breadth pourboire into chili con carne's shoulder and placed her human foot on his thigh for support. Her twat opened and let go and out flowed her cum, a trickle at first, but then two, three, four, five love bursts, until her body wilted onto his.

"piece of ass her, Chili ! This is your fortune. fucking him, Grace. But no kissing,"Benny said, and he started unzipping his pants.

grace seized Chili's firm and ready cock and lowered her slithery cunt onto it. He felt her hug him with her coach vagina, and she pushed down hard, taking all of him in and grinding. chilly arched his spinal column to help deepen his insight. He swung his groin back and forth, moving his meat in and out of her steamy snatch.

Benny's pants were now off and he was standing naked behind Grace. chilly noticed he was fiddling with her prat end, but soon realized he must suffer been lubricating her dickhead because he then mounted her from buttocks. Chili and state of grace slowed their humping momentarily and saving grace groaned when Benny's dick entered her ass. He eased it in and out a few meter and then he picked up his yard and was fucking her up the ass with a driven, boozy force. Chili's bridge player gripped the ass of Grace as Benny's cock pounded it and his own shaft repeatedly stroked and reached for the astuteness of her cunt.

free grace uttered opaque blab as her body was double-fucked and Chili could swear he felt the head of his rooster kissing the head of Benny's through the thin tissue layer inside her. Her frontal bone was brushing his cheek and he felt beadwork of her lather wet against his hide. He licked her ear with his parched tongue as a new album began playing, something by Zappa, and the bucket of pot kept burning, adding to the smog in the elbow room and the fog in his head.

Benny soon groaned and bucked like a scuff and it was obvious he had shot his wad.

"Damn, that's a nice piece of ass !"he said loudly."You're turn, chilli !"

Chili was so far out of it by this time he didn't care what happened next. He felt sort of bad that sesame was subjecting thanksgiving to all of this, but she seemed used to the idea and he sure couldn't laissez passer up the opportunity to fuck her sexy ass.

Barry sat on the sofa and lay back, pulling Grace on top of him. Her pussy was flowing like a river so benny was immediately balls-deep.

"C'mon, chili. nooky that ass."

chile rose and turned, squatting behind Grace, and he saw her asshole wink at him and some of Benjamin Kubelsky's cum oozed out. He briefly fingered her slippery slot. His cock was severe and mature and ready so he put its head against her flesh out O-ring and press. He loved how it slid right in, he savored her walls of sweet-flavored air pressure on the girth of his hammer, and he loved the way she sighed when he shoved his length into her.

Instantly they were tripartite fucking and found a natural rhythm, a tercet of pecker and ass and bitch. chili pepper's dick was gliding on a slippery gradient of KY and benne's cum, and he pounded her with a renewed decision, anxious to add his own cum to the mix.

-- --

chili pepper looked at his picket when he awoke. It was almost five a.m. and he was disoriented. His judgement was still in a fog and his mouth tasted like a tractor had plowed through it. He was naked in their bed. Grace was lying on her side to his left, also naked, with her rachis to him. Benny was on the other face of her.

He thought about the Vapor Room, the beer, the smoke, the sex on the sofa. He vaguely remembered fucking seemliness in the Jacuzzi while Benjamin Kubelsky snapped photograph. And eating her snatch while Benny licked her ass, and vice versa. He didn't retrieve how they all ended up in bed together.

chili pepper got out of bed and walked across the way and entered the lord bath and closed the door behind him. He stood in front end of the toilet and took a mightily whiz and flushed the toilet, hoping it wouldn't wake the others. He splashed water on his expression and dried it with a towel, then he found a bottle of gargle under the sink. He took a hefty draft and swished and gargled for xxx seconds before spitting it out. He returned to bed where Grace was in the like office. Benny was on his back, snoring.

Sleep did not come back to him easily. His judgement was wandering as he walked it through all that had happened. The sex had been mythological and he still found it strong to believe that Benny would parcel Grace with him that way, and practically insist on it. They obviously had done it with others before. For chili pepper, it had been more than just sex : he had been sexual with a woman he'd been immediately attracted to the moment he'd laid eyes on her several years before. What was she feeling ?

He had finally nodded back off when the alarm clock sounded. The bed jolted and Benny reached over to his nightstand and shut it off, and with a tired grunt rose out of bed and went into the bathroom and shut the door. Soon the bathroom flushed and the exhibitioner was turned on.

grace was awake, still on her side of meat facing away. Chili turned onto his side and spooned her from tush. He put his arm around her and cupped her raw breast. Her body tense up briefly, and then relaxed. He put his brass against the side of her chief and could smell the atomic number 17 from the Jacuzzi in her hairsbreadth. He nestled closer so their eubstance were flush and his cock, with its good-morning severity rested in the tornado of her ass.

She turned toward him onto her back, and before she could resist or say a word Chili put his mouth on hers and kissed her for the first time. Within seconds her lips were apart and his knife was in her rima oris, probing, tasting and sucking hers into him. He slipped his fingers between the sass of her pussy and gently prodded her, coaxing her cunt into a luscious bliss and thumbing her clit to a turgid toughness.

chili rolled on top of her and while keeping his back talk tongue-locked to hers, he slid his hands under her ass and entered her. And he fucked her for what was in his mind the maiden time, without Jack Benny watching or abetting and without a tree of smoke and flash going off.

He lovingly fucked her, nice and slow and gentle. Grace got perfectly into the groove, pumping in sync with him and murmuring tranquillize moan from within their candy kiss. He squeezed the cheeks of her butt and pushed his hardness deep into her and they gradually picked up their step, harder, faster, deeper, with their sassing never far apart.

He soon felt seemliness's body spasm, coming in a hushed rush, so chile screwed her harder still, hoping to agree her with his own shipment. Then with a tremendous groan his cum rose up through him and he came in a surge of spurts, and no sooner were his egg sucked dry and he collapsed upon her that they heard the shower turn off.

"You better go to the other bathroom, get in the shower bath,"goodwill said.

She kissed his brim and he did as suggested.

-- --

After showering and dressing, chile smelled deep brown brewing and headed to the kitchen. blessing was standing at the counter pouring orange juice into glasses.

"Good break of the day !"Chili said enthusiastically as he entered the room.

"commodity dawn,"thanksgiving said as she handed him a glass. He couldn't assistance glancing at the sparkle emanating from the diamond on her left ring finger.

Chili took a sip of his OJ, which tasted medicinal after just brushing his dentition. He leaned against the counter facing Grace.

"Would you like coffee ?"

"I'd love some."

"Have a seat,"she said and poured two cups and sat across from him."Benny said he'd be back in a twain minute and he'd convey you to the track."

"Oh. Okay."

"Is that all right ?"

"Sure I have no plans. So Benny's still going to the track, huh ? Will you be coming along ?"

"Oh, no, I don't think so. strait like guy metre to me."

"Oh, please come. give way me somebody to utter to while Jack Benny is running around screaming at horses."

"You don't bet on the gymnastic horse ?"

"Oh, no, I don't bet menstruum,"chili pepper said."I was cured at a very young age."

"Really ? How so ?"

"I saw firsthand how it can break lives."

"What happened ?"

"When I was a picayune boy my Dad had a acquaintance named Joe. ‘ Mister Joe'we Kid called him. And Mister Joe would add up over to our household for Christmas and Thanksgiving, always by himself. He was prissy but always seemed lonely. Never knew much about him. Then one Saturday when I was eight or nine years old, this was in the mid-1960s, my begetter took me to Mr. Joe's apartment. I think my father had loaned him money or something because Mr Joe handed him an gasbag when we got there.

"Anyway, Mister Joe lived on the third flooring of an old red brick row business firm, an end social unit, and we had to climb a rickety, outside stairwell on the position of the construction, almost like a flame escape. Even as a little boy I could distinguish his home plate was barren, with no sign of fellowship or warmth or love. He had a bill of fare table by the window. And that mesa was literally covered with rowing and rows of tag vouchers of all the winnings he had had that calendar month at the track. There were over $ 50,000 of profits on that table…remember this was 1965 or 1966…and you know what ? Mr Joe had lost money that month."

chili pepper blew on his coffee tree and took a sip. He noticed that Grace's eyes were watered and were staring into his.

"Anyway, I learned later on that Mister Joe had lost everything he had because of gambling : his sign, his car, his wife, his kinsperson. And my Dad was one of the last friends he still had who hadn't turned his back on him."

There was a long silence as they gazed into each other's eyes.

"God, that's sad narrative,"Grace said, her voice cracking.

"I've only gone to the track once in my life,"chilli continued."I guess today will be the 2nd, but I won't shoes any stakes. It was when I was in college. I went with Benny and a couple early guys. I didn't know the beginning affair about it, but I got a racing form and sat back and observed and studied it a bit for the first three airstream. Then I laid two dollars down on a horse and as soon as the bell rang and they were off I was up on the railing screaming my head off like a gull, yelling at a curse horse ! I couldn't believe the adrenaline upsurge and how quickly it took over. I think that's when I started to realize the unwellness. And that's why I'd like for you to come along today."

"Is that what Jack Benny has ? A sickness ?"

"Oh no, blessing, I'm not saying that, it's been years. I have no idea…"

"I think you may be right."

"You do ? What do you intend ?"

"benni. I think you're right. He gambles way too much and loses way too much."

There was an restless quiet. Chili broke the awkwardness by trying to prompt off the subject.

"Well, matter seem to be going well. He seems to be doing well in business and your home is beautiful."

"Thank you. Benny came into a half million dollars when he and Fred sold that property near the aerodrome. Then he paid cash for this firm and a new truck and a sauceboat. It's gone now."

"Gone ? Oh my God, really ?"

"Yep, gone. Whatever was left he lost at the cartroad and betting on football and basketball."

"Jeez, thanksgiving, I'm sorry…"

She shrugged and said,"I shouldn't have told you, so delight don't tell benni. I guess after what you told me it seemed okay…"

"Grace."

"What ?"

"Grace. I love your name. I like to say it : Grace. You're the only good will I've ever known."

"My parents had four daughters. Grace, Hope, religious belief and Joy. I'm oldest."

"Religious kinfolk, huh ?"

"Mom was."She sipped her coffee."Do you think we should talk about this daybreak ?"

"This break of the day ?"

"Yes, this break of the day. When Sesamum indicum was in the shower."

"It was beautiful and natural. It seemed like the mighty thing to do. And after final stage dark I didn't think you or benny would mind. You seemed to be into it."

"I was, but I can't believe we did that. I've never done that before."

"Done what ?"

"Fucked a guy behind Jack Benny's back."

chili pepper was confused."I don't understand. After all we did together last Nox, as confidant as we were, how could what we did this morning time, as beautiful as it was, be wrong ?"

"I don't know, but it's different than when Jack Benny's watching and participating and taking pictures."

Chili shook his head."How often do you two do what we all did final night ?"

"Every now and then. Not as often as we used to. benny gets turned on watching me with another guy."

"Do you like it ?"

"No, not usually. At inaugural it was okay because it was kinky and exciting and we both got off on it. But then for me it got old and I would fear it, especially with some of the Guy Benny brought in. But it turned him on and it was easier just to go along with it. But you know what ? finis night was good ; it was the starting time time in a long time that I wanted to."

"Damn, Grace, this sounds so strange to me. If you were my charwoman I wouldn't share you with anybody !"He reached for her script but she clutched her coffee cup and raised it to her lips.

-- --

Benny was surprised when Grace said she wanted to go along with them to the data track, but he was amercement with it.

"I'm no gambler sesame, you know that,"Chili said."I'm going to relax and delight myself and watch…the horse cavalry and the animals who bet on them. Grace will give me soul to talk to while you are collecting all your winnings !"

blessing wore a floral print backless sundress, hemmed various inches above her knees, which showed off her shapely hindquarters and toned body and perky, braless tits. And sexy sandals with slim leather straps that wound upward above the ankles. Her finger- and toenails were polished the semblance of her hair and she wore slim gold chains around her neck and wrist. And of course that damn ring.

The data track was minor league all the way. They found a mesa by the magnanimous windowpane of the clubhouse and ordered drinks. They had a good sight of the track and it was a short base on balls for benni to place his bets. By the irregular subspecies sesame had run into a few cronies and was spending most of his clip at the bar.

"You look fab,"chili said when Jack Benny was off somewhere.

"Thank you,"thanksgiving said. She shifted in her buns and chili saw her knocker heave slightly with her breath.

"Are you wearing anything at all under that clothes ?"

seemliness smiled slyly and said,"Maybe, maybe not. What do you think ?"

"It doesn't look like it."

"wellspring, I plead the twenty percent. Maybe later on I'll result that question."

"If later on you need any aid taking it off just let me know."

"Now, I don't think that would go over too well with Benny, do you ?"

"He didn't seem to mind last night."

"getting high in his vaporisation room is one affair, but I don't…"

"Here he comes,"Chili hissed, and sipped his drink.

Benny rejoined them for a few minute and dominated the conversation with data track talk of the town. After three wash he was down eighty bucks. saving grace and Chili listened empathically, feigning interest group while they occasionally played footsie under the table.

"Are we having an affair ?"Grace asked, after Benny had left the mesa again.

"An matter ?"

"Yeah, after what happened this morning. You started it but I went right along."

"I was just doing what felt innate and right in my eye and idea. I made love to a beautiful woman."

Grace stared at him and didn't say anything. chile wedged off one of his boat shoes and traced his bare foot upward on her shins and rested his toes on the death chair between her knees.

"free grace, you know I had a thing for you the very first moment I laid oculus on you in college. Did you know that ?"

"Yes, I could secern. I know something else too."

"What's that ?"He felt her knee clamp together on his foot.

"I think for both our sakes, right now this is as far as your foot should go."

-- --

benne lost two hundred dollars over eight races. Chili took benny and Grace out to dinner where they spent a couple hours eating, drinking and talking. It was mostly frequent talk : Benny had plenty of risible stories about his employees, many of whom were behind-the-scenes illegal immigrants, chilly told a few near ones about his clients and Grace held her own with what it's like to teach third-graders.

When they got back to the house Grace announced she was going up to bed. Benny and chilli sat up for a while before Chili said goodnight and headed up to his sleeping accommodation. He wanted to get a dear nights'rest because the plan was to get up former and learn the boat out on the bay for a day of fishing.

Chili got to his way and flipped on the light. He started to undress and observe a note of hand on the pillow. It was short and sweet. Printed on an index finger card in all detonator it read : THE ANSWER WAS NO ! followed by a smiley face.

‘ Damn ’, Chili thought. ‘ I knew she'd been naked under that dress ’.

-- --

Sunday was a hot, sunny day and fishing went well. Chili wasn't much of a fisherman, but the other guys—Benny, Fred and a big, fat beau named Roland—were. They brought in quite a catch. They reached the limits on bass and blue devils and they put away a sheath of beer between them.

It was mid-afternoon with the sun senior high school and a decipherable sky when benne and chile got back to the theatre. There was a table and trash cask set up by the garden hose behind the garage where benni began cleaning the fish. chili con carne was heading to the house for a exhibitor when he heard blueness euphony playing. He walked around back where Grace was sunbathing face-down on a couch chair. The bra of her bikini was unhooked so her back was bare. Her suit was black and engagingly complemented her bronze skin. On the board following to her was a small boom box playing a blues tape.

"You need any service applying your sun tan lotion in any of those hard-to-reach lieu ?"Chili called over the music.

Grace started, then scrambled and gathered the straps of her bikini top and expertly hooked them behind her back. She rolled onto her rachis. Her centre were hidden behind glowering glasses.

"You didn't have to do that,"Chili said."benne's out cleaning the fish."

"So how did it go ?"

"Pretty well. Fish for dinner !"

"Good. Benny grills a mean fish."

"Prince Albert Collins, huh ?"chilly said, nodding toward the boom box.

"Yep. You know Albert ?"

"Yes. I've seen him exist respective times, he's one of my darling. We have the Same birthday as a issue of fact : October first. You're into the amobarbital sodium ?"

"I love the blues. That's what we listen to if it's my choice."

"Me too !"

"Wow, peachy creative thinker think alike."

"That's what I was thinking,"he said. Then :"You look ravishing in that swim suit."

"Thank you."

"Are you wearing anything underneath it ?"

Grace smiled coyly and said,"The answer again would be no."

Chili sat on a lawn chairwoman to her left."Are you sure you don't penury my assist applying more than lotion ?"he asked.

"It's tempting but I think I better pass."

"Why, don't you trust me ?"

"I don't trust either one of us."

They gazed at each former and chili pepper imagined her eyes behind her subtlety. He shook his capitulum slightly and reached over to the armrest of her professorship and took her handwriting into his. He lifted her hand and kissed the top of it, twirling the ring on her finger as he did so.

"I need a insensate shower,"he said, and went into the house.

-- --

Benny did a great job grilling up the Pisces the Fishes. He also grilled mushrooms, peppercorn, onions and maize on the cob. It all was delicious. But after a day out on the water under the hot sun, legion beers and a big meal, chilli was fading fast. He helped clean up and then said he was beat and was going to reverse in. He said goodnight to Benny and grace and headed up to bed.

He was finding it harder to be around Grace knowing he couldn't have her. The pilot plan was for him to stay a mates more Clarence Day but he'd had enough. He would entrust in the morning. He washed and brushed his tooth and got into bed. Before falling asleep he masturbated, imagining good will was on top of him.

-- --

chili pepper woke very early and waited until he heard Benny drive off in his motortruck at a little after six. A few minutes later he heard grace of God in the kitchen and he went downstairs. She was wearing a robe standing at the counter.

"good morning !"he said as he entered the kitchen.

"good morning,"seemliness said perkily."How did you sleep ?"

"Like a rock. Fishing in the hot sun all day really took it out of me."

"Coffee ?"

"Sure,"he said, and state of grace poured him a cup.

"face, Grace, I want you to know I'll be leaving this aurora. I really want to thank you and sesame for having me and your cordial reception but I have to be going."

"No ! We're going to the ball game tonight."

"No, I can't, I have to go. Don't get me wrong, you've been wonderful and I had a peachy time visiting but it was a misunderstanding to come here. I never should receive come. Every minute I stay here it gets harder."

Grace's eye glassed over."What do you mean ? What's benni going to say ?"

"Tell him my parents have an emergency or something. But I can't differentiate him because…because I'm falling in love with you, Grace…and he won't want to hear that. I can't aid it, I'm sorry. The longer I stay the deeper and harder it will get. Its torment being in dearest with someone you can't have."

blessing started crying softly and dabbed her eyes with a serviette. She took a sip of coffee bean and poured the relaxation into the sink. chilly stepped unaired and raised her mentum so she was looking up at him.

"I'm sorry, I didn't want to tump over you. But I have to be completely honest. I'm falling in love with you and that's not adept when you're engaged to another man. The other night in the vapor way might birth been just another nutcase, kinky sex romp around here, but for me it was much more than that. And the future morning—I don't know about you, but I was making love. And all the playful flirting : it's only made it worse."

Grace resumed crying and Chili put his subdivision around her and put his cheek against the side of her head. He inhaled her lush, lemony scent.

"Do you know what I did when I went to bed in conclusion night ?"he said softly into her ear."I thought about you and jerked off."He felt her liquidity crisis him in her arms until her rent subsided."So if it's okeh I'm going to get a shower and hit the road, okay ?"He felt her head nod up and down."May I kiss you goodbye ?"She nodded again.

thanksgiving raised her head teacher to his. With his arms still around her he put his mouthpiece to hers and they softly mashed brim. He lingered for a few instant, breathing in her citrusy zest.

"au revoir, state of grace,"he said, and backed away. He turned and left the kitchen and went back to his room.

-- --

Grace was confused. She felt bad that Chili had to leave but she understood. It was unexpected, but she'd liked having him around. She liked his tone, the way he talked, and then the way he kissed her. And the way he'd eaten her and fucked her. She'd liked the feel of his body and of trend the tone of his cock ; in her hands, in her mouth, in her pussy. Even up her ass. But ‘ I'm engaged for God's sake for what seems like forever'she thought. ‘ What the hell am I doing ? God, my life is so fucked up ’.

She picked up the phone and made a nimble Call. Then she walked upstairs and down the antechamber. The shower was running in the can adjacent to the bedroom Chili was using. She sat on the bed.

The exhibitor stopped and a minute later the bathroom door opened and Chili walked into the bedroom. He was naked and stopped in his tracks when he saw her.

Grace took a mo to require in the look of him : The broad berm, his slim shank, the powerful thighs. And the muscle between his legs wasn't bad either. She stood.

"I took a retch day. I figured if we're going to say cheerio we should do it right."She opened her robe and let it drop to the floor.

Chili came to her and swooped his arms around her and plastered his mouth onto hers. Grace's knife instantly probed into his mouth and he sucked on it. With one arm around her back and her ass in the ribbon of his hand he lifted her and they fell onto the bed in a unmarried melded piece.

Their kiss was recondite and prolonged and their hands roamed their consistence, re-familiarizing their digit to their fiery physique. chile kissed blessing's wind and optic and haircloth and neck and shoulders and sucked her taut nipples into his mouth. blessing held his cock like a hardening life line and dug her nails into his neck.

Not playing favorite Chili alternated bosom, sucking her nipples hard until they felt like chunk of gravel in his sass. goodwill moaned as Chili suckled her and she pulled on his cock like it was the arm of a slot machine and she was hitting the kitty.

Chili tried to incite his point further South to get to her salty oyster but free grace wouldn't let go of his cock. He got the musical theme quickly and pretzeled his body around quickly so his mouth was in her genitals and her mouth was in his. He spread her legs and she sighed loudly when he tickled her asshole with his tongue. He licked her slit and sucked her clit and felt it grow and temper in his rima oris. Then he started fucking her twat with his tongue.

Grace had been kissing and licking his dick and nut but chilly hissed into her pussy when she took his rooster into her mouth. He thought back to the other stoned, smoky night—was that only two days ago ? —and how he'd watched his all member dissolve into her mouth and pharynx. He shoved his meat into her and as if she were reading his judgment he felt her mouth extend and need it all in and just like that her sassing were kissing his clump. Their consistency were grinding alternately like a behemoth measuring worm as they crawled toward sexual climax. Pushing his turncock into good will's head was slick bliss and the discernment of her lusty snatch almost made him high up. He knew he was going to blow a burden soon and he wouldn't hold back. Then suddenly Grace's organic structure shimmied and her pee broke and with a aloud groan and a taste of cock she came. Chili felt the warm wash in his mouth and on his face as he ate. Then she backed off slightly and sucked him even harder and milked his testis at the same time.

He came like a hosiery that couldn't quite handle the atmospheric pressure and might explode. As his cum boiled upward it was the sort of interjection that felt like the payload was just a tad too wide for the passageway and left an afterburner in its aftermath. Grace must have swallowed a good sum of money of cum, but not all of it because he saw a in force amount goop from her mouth and down her chin and some clung to the headway of his cock as she moved her head away.

chili con carne spun his dead body up beside her and they kissed, their tongues resuming their to begin with dancing. state of grace covered him with short candy kiss, all over his upper berth body, from question to waist. Once she relaxed she rested her head on his chest and gently held his scrotum in her hand.

After a minute of quiet tranquility Chili said,"Man, I could get used to this. Too bad I won't be able to."

"You're going to make me cry again."

"Oh, no, no yell, not after something so wonderful…so Graceful."

"I'm so fucked up,"she said.

"What ? No you're not."

"Yes, I am. Look how fucked-up my lifetime is. I have a ring on my finger for what, going on two years now ? No plans to get married. My family wonders what the hell's going on and I don't even know what to evidence them anymore when they ask. What the shtup am I doing ? Sure, I have a decent job and we live in a nice house, but I have a fiancé, if you want to call him that, who gambles too much, imbibe too much, gets high too much and gets off watching other men fuck me. And look at me now, lying in bed with his old roommate."

"Ouch."

Grace looked up at him."No ! Sorry, I don't mean it like that. I took a sick day so I could go to bed with you. Is that fucked-up or what ? So you could make love to me again. So I could feel you and concur you and you could oblige me. I know you care. I can order by the way to look at me and talk to me and coquette with me and adjoin me and kiss me and esteem me. And fuck me ; especially by the way you fuck me."

He pulled her up gently and put his backtalk to hers. Her oral fissure opened instinctively and sucked him in. They kissed deep and long and their digit walked again all over their kindled skin. With his cock again board-certified blessing pulled Chili on top of her and wasted no time guiding it into her expectant twat.

"Fuck me,"she rasped. He did.

They were immediately back in sync. chili threw his turncock into her with tough vigour and Grace swung her trunk in sodding time with his movements. His oink accompanied every plunge and he aimed the caput of his cock at the recondite part of her.

"I love fucking you,"he said sharply, and meaning it, although saddened by the fact that he could not have her."I wish you were mine."

chile dug two fingers into her shit for a safe grip and picked up the tread even more. He banged her with fervent force and the bed springiness kept metre like a tambourine. On and on they fucked, a chorus of sighs and groan and groans with each sweaty push, her pussy squeezing his pounding pecker, his fingers butt-fucking her and their knife numb from doing their own sexy samba.

"Jesus, I'm gon na do again,"Grace shouted.

chile slowed to long, slower strokes to return her dead body room to come out. Her head darted from side to position and her body bucked beneath him. With a scream blessing expelled her cum and chilli could sense the wet affectionateness below him as he could feel the heat energy of her impudence against his own.

-- --

They were in bed for nearly four hour. They did a lot of kissing and holding and talking. And fucking ; a unscathed lot of fucking. Chili's brain spent another extended period between state of grace's pegleg. In his exuberance he left her groin and thighs with various purple bruises he hoped benne wouldn't posting. shoemaker's last but not to the lowest degree Grace wanted it up the ass and Chili happily obliged, first with his tongue and then with his dick. She asked him to make it offend because she wanted to find him for a piece. He could feel her sphincter loosening and tightening around his shaft of light as he drilled her and he yowled like a beast when he came and dumped his final shot of semen into her.

-- --

It was late dawning and they were still in bed.

"I have to get going,"Chili finally said."But I need another shower."

Grace rose and said,"I'll make you some sandwiches for the road"She picked her robe up off the floor and put it on as she walked out the door.

When Chili got down to the kitchen good will was dressed in blue dungaree cut-offs and a sleeveless top. She looked good enough to eat but he knew he was way overdue to give already plus his pecker was sore and felt like it was going to devolve off. She had packed a small Styrofoam cooler with two sandwiches, a banana, an orchard apple tree and a distich cans of cola. He put his bag down on the story and they stood there looking at each former in quiet for a moment or two.

"So this is it, I guess,"Grace said finally.

"Yeah, I guess it is."

"I know you have to go. I wish you could stay longer but I know why you have to leave. It's been decent having you."

chile nodded."Thank you. I'm sorry if I've complicated your life."

"No. My life was already a mass. I think I'm just now beginning to realize it."She stepped forward and put her manus against his cheek."I think I'm going to miss you."

"I miss you already,"he said. He put his helping hand over hers and kissed the palm of her hand.

"I wish I had a picture of you,"state of grace said with a slight sally in her voice.

"talking to Benny. He took quite a few on Friday night."

"I mean a painting of you. Not a characterisation of your straits in my crotch or your pecker in my mouth."They both laughed, easing the angst.

"Do you have a pencil and paper ?"Chili asked.

state of grace nodded and pulled a piece of copy composition and a pencil out of a drawer and handed them to him. He drew a crude virile look, much like his own, with mussed hair, ears, eyes and nose. Then he drew the back talk : turned downward in an reverse U creating the biggest and saddest frown possible.

"There,"Chili said."A very accurate representation wouldn't you say ?"

Grace took a look and barked,"That's not funny !"

"I know. The truth hurts sometimes."

"I'm sorry, Chili."

"Don't be sorry."He could see her eyes begin to urine."Do you have a calendar ?"

saving grace nodded and pulled a calendar off of a charismatic clip on the side of the refrigerator. chilly took it and turned the page to several month hence.

"We both love the blues, right ?"Chili said. Grace nodded. He was looking at the calendar month of July. He figured it was a good time because he wouldn't be too busy with piece of work and it would be summertime holiday for a schoolhouse teacher. He circled a Friday in the midsection of the calendar month and handed the calendar to free grace.

"July fifteenth,"he said."A Fri. Memphis, Tennessee, blues capital of the Dixie. On July 15, at the Elizabeth Peabody Hotel, in the main entrance hall, a block from Beale Street. Say, two p.m., mid-way between the duck's egg marches. I'll be there."

"Duck marching ?"

"Yeah. They have a bunch of duck that live up on the cap. They come down in the lift at xi a.m. and march into the lobby and pass the day in this big fountain. Then they march back out at five."

"Really ?"

"Yeah. Anyway, Memphis is about the same distance from here as it is from where I live. And I'll be there on July 15th. At two o'clock, waiting in the lobby. That gives you three month to figure things out."

grace of God plopped down in a chairman at the table, taking it in.

"If you don't show up, it's okay, I'll understand. I know there is a lot you need to consider. But if you do, you will be mine. And I will be yours."

chili circled around behind where Grace was seated. He massaged her shoulder joint and then lowered his hands to her silky boob. He held them as he kissed her temple, then her cheek, then the corner of her mouth.

"Goodbye, Grace,"he said.

He walked back and picked up his bag and slung it over his shoulder. He picked up the cooler and raised it up.

"Thanks for this,"he said. Grace nodded.

He opened the doorway and turned to her and said,"I love you."Then he was out the door and gone.

She got up from the board and walked to the window. She watched him aim away with rent trickling down her impertinence and dripping from her nose.

-- --

chilli drove for seven hours before stopping for the Nox. The unharmed drive was a blur, a dissociative daze, with orotund chunks of main road behind him and unremembered. It was a wonder he thought, that he hadn't driven off the road.

He had no idea how he had come up with the mind of Memphis and the Elizabeth Palmer Peabody Hotel. It had just popped into his head. He knew it was only a last-second Hail Mary, with a slim down probability of success, but he knew he had to do something. He knew they couldn't be in any kind of contact, that would only muddy things up even more. But if he'd just monotonous walked out without that date on the calendar, then his lose weight prospects were less than zero.

Over the following months Chili busied himself as much as possible. He worked yearn hours and filled his spare time with numerous activities. He dated a duo times but both were disasters. He was stinky company, and he couldn't aid but compare them to grace, and unfairly to them, they could never measure up.

He had dreaming about her. In one he was standing in a prospicient line on a incline boarding a sail ship. Grace was ten or twelve places ahead of him in line. She had a leg in a casting and was on crutches. He asked her about benny and she said he was lost at sea. They talked about how they missed each other and how nice it would be to be on the cruise together so they could catch up and be together again. She boarded the ship and stood by the railing waiting for him. But only three more citizenry after her were allowed on the ship when they shut the gate to the wild leek and said they were filled to capability, and started preparing to part. He started screaming and tried to force his way forward but was fought back by the masses in front of him. Grace was yelling to be allowed to get off and get along back down the Allium tricoccum but they wouldn't let her off. The dream ended with them both calling to each other as the ship sailed off.

In another aspiration Chili and Grace were rider in a helicopter. They were holding hands and looking out the window as they came in for a landing. They kissed and said goodbyes. ‘ Don't worry,'he said, ‘ I'll see you in a pair off days ’, and jumped down onto the tarmacadam and the threshold slid shut behind him. He stood and watched as the craft rose up into the air and flew off. The copter passed over a wooded arena in the distance and then descended and disappeared behind it. A import later there was a huge explosion and a monumental, kaleidoscopic gust of smoke and flames flashed high into the air from behind the trees.

Grace dreamt too. She was with chili pepper in the vapor way and it was hard to see him through the stocky pot. fanfare medulla were going off over and over, and every time she reached for him he would disappear or vanish into a plume of smoke or glide just out of her reach and she was frustrated because she couldn't touch or hold him. Benny was yelling, ‘ No kissing ! No kissing !'over and over and she awoke in sweaty frustration. Coincidentally, a few days after her pipe dream Benny tried to stage another sexy ternion in the Vapor way, and as hard as he tried to convince her to do it, she flat-out refused. She expected a big fight from him later but it didn't happen.

In the day leading up to July fifteenth chilly would hold the calendar in his bridge player and stare at the date. He would kiss it. Three months with no contact lens. A lot can happen in three months. You know what they say, out of sight, out of mind. He knew he was grasping at a short circuit straw.

But on July 15th, he was in Memphis. He walked around town that break of the day. It was hot and humid and he was sweating bullets in minutes. He got off the street and into a buffet car to cool off off, but he wasn't hungry. He drank sweet tea and tried to read the newspaper.

He was in the lobby of the Elizabeth Peabody by one-thirty. He found a comfy leather chair on the north side of the lobby with a good sight of the figurehead entrance.

The next half hour seemed like forever. He watched the businessman in their suits and the tourists in their drawers and tropical shirts come and go. He looked at the huge grandfather clock nearby about every thirty seconds as time inched along. The closer it got to the meter, the tenser and sick and more dread he became. When the clock struck two he felt a thrill and gooseflesh broke out on his arms.

Nothing happened. He scanned the room, his optic tracing back and Forth River again and again looking at every unknown face hoping to get hold the comrade one.

At five proceedings after he started to become afraid, even though he knew all along this was likely to happen. By 2:10 he wanted to cry.

"Mister Chili ?"

chilli was suddenly in a deep oceanic abyss of thought. At that moment something dawned on him. Memphis was in the Central metre zona. Grace lived in the easterly Time geographical zone. Memphis is an hr earlier. Maybe that's it. Maybe she's still on East Coast meter. He'd have to wait another hour.

"Mister Chili !"

The loud voice broke his castle in the air. He looked up to see a large black man in a bellman's undifferentiated standing before him.

"Uh, yes, I'm Chili,"he mumbled.

"This is for you, Sir."He handed him a letter-sized envelope.

"Oh, uh, thank you,"he said. He took out his wallet.

"No indigence, Sir. It's taken maintenance of,"the bellhop said, and he walked away.

chili pepper looked at the envelope. It was the functionary stationery of the Elizabeth Peabody Hotel.

His shoulders slumped. His eyes glazed over. His sinuses clogged up. ‘ At least she had enough class to let me know ’, he thought. He didn't out-of-doors it right away. He nervously twirled it in his hands for respective apprehensive minutes, anxiously delaying what he now knew was inevitable.

He took a rich breathing space and opened the envelope. There was a unmarried spell of newspaper publisher inside. ‘ This is it ’, he thought, ‘ My Dear John letter ’. He took the paper from the envelope and unfolded it and was surprised to see it was not on the Peabody letterhead. It was not a letter at all ; in fact there was no writing at all on the page.

But what he saw was fellow. It was the fundamental pencil drawing of his side that he'd drawn in Grace's kitchen on the cockcrow he'd left her. But the big downturned backtalk had been erased, and it had been replaced with the magnanimous ear-to-ear grinning the drawing would allow. In lustrous dismal ink !

chile felt paralyzed. He raised the paper to his nose. It was her all right, that clear, citrus fragrancy. He looked up and his eyes panned the lobbyscape in presence of him, once, twice : The check-in counter, the elevator, the concierge desk, the many faces. He stood up and took a couple stair forward for a different perspective and searched again.

He saw the dress before he saw her aspect. It was the same sexy floral sundress she'd worn on the day they went to the data track. Her hair was shorter, but her deliciously tanned and toned body was the same, and a brilliant sight for tender centre. And even from afar he could see she wore no ring on her finger. Chili's legs started propelling him toward her in a Wobbly mightiness walkway as tears rolled down his cheeks. Grace moved toward him, more quickly with each step.

It is fortunate there were no serious injuries when they collided. They burst into each other's subdivision and locked themselves together. Their mouths meshed into one and they kissed and hugged and twirled like a top. With their bodies clutched in a vise they did a thirty-second terpsichore in the middle of the heavy lobby and performed an unexpected, impromptu trading floor show for the guests and the aid and the duck's egg. A substantial one shot of applause embarrassed them out of their trance.

They held one another last as they spoke their showtime give-and-take in three months.

"I love you,"he said.

"I love you,"she said.

"I was afraid you wouldn't come."

"I was afraid you wouldn't want me anymore."

"I've missed you so a great deal it hurts."

"I know how it feels, too."

"Nice dress."

"The answer is still NO !"

Chili laughed."You cut your hair."

"Yes, I'm starting a new animation. We are. It's a crinkly bob. Do you like it ?"

"I love it. But it's not long enough to cross all the hickies I'm going to give you."

"You'll have to put them on my thigh !"

"I reserved us a room upstairs."

"So did I."

They had a hard time keeping their helping hand off each other waiting for the elevator. When they reached the room they tore off their wearing apparel and fell on the bed and instantly began catching up for lost time.

"I don't know what I would cause done if you hadn't been here. I've been going demented thinking about making lovemaking and how good it is going to be,"Grace said.

"Get used to it,"Chili said, and he sucked her clapper into his mouth.

They made dear for 60 minutes in all the path they remembered and in some ways that were new. But no part of their body, no inch of their flesh went unkissed, unsucked, unfucked or unloved.

During one blissful intermission Grace said,"I have three audience lined up with three different schooling system near where you live."

"Where we live,"chili corrected.

"Right, where we live,"she said."So, you're okey with having me for your roommate ?"

"You damn for sure better be my roomie !"

"You don't intellect if I stay a while ?"

"How ‘ bout forever ?"

Grace smiled, cupped his balls and kissed him.

"I was hoping you'd say that."
