Unspoken Pleasure by Erotica

Lonely Housewife Succumbs: 46

Scottie said, "No Uber needed. I'm parked over there." We walked together, silently and awkwardly, not having

seen each other since that fateful lunch at La Tour. When we reached his car, as is Scottie, he opened the

passenger door for me. This thowever his eyes didn't linger on my legs.

As we drove | asked, "How is school going?" He replied, "School is school. | added smore courses so that |

could graduate early. Didn't want to have any free tso | just led a vanilla life."

| said, "Oh wow Scottie congratulations. What are you going to do now?"

"I don't know Andrea. | have a job offer from the firm that | interviewed with last summer in NYC or | could go to

work for dad. But enough aboutAndrea. What have you been up to?"

| cringed. What do | say? Back to vanilla. | replied, "Well tonight was a good example of what I've been up to. I'm

back to Vanilla and assholes like George but I'm okay as Ginny and | have mended fences and beccloser."

Scottie said, "I'm glad to hear about you and Ginny. That's what's most important. Sorry about the rest. Here you

go Andrea. You are home."

| asked, "Would you like to cin and catch up smore?" Yikes Andrea! Seriously!

Scottie said, "I don't think that's a good idea Andrea. It was good to see you. Merry Christmas."

1 opened my own door and walked into my house to continue my vanilla existence. Merry Fucking Christmas

Andrea! | can't believe | had the nerve to ask him to cinside after the hurt | put him through! Oh well as the

old saying goes, you made your bed and now you lie in it.

Christmas cand went without much fanfare. | can tell that Ginny is worried about my state of mind, as is of

course my dear friend Emma. In the spirit of open and honest communication with my daughter, | did tell Ginny

about the incident outside The Clubhouse restaurant. | also mentioned how Scottie by pure happenstance came

to the rescue.

Prior to Christmas we had made reservations at the club for New Year's Eve. It was now December 30th and |

was regretting making that commitment. Ginny made it sound like a fun evening but my mind was elsewhere. |

was dreading tomorrow especially since | had been set up with another date.

I'm sounding like a broken record, | know! Frank is a nice man. He is a little older than me, try 15 years older,

and likerecently divorced. He is a nice man but again my heart felt empty.

As | was coming back from the health club | drove by Scottie's house and saw Ginny and Scottie talking on the

sidewalk. I didn't stop and made no mention of it later that evening. New Years Eve cand | felt really sad.

How had | made such a mess of my life in a little over six months. The sad part is, | don't even know what to do

about it.

| told myself that | needed to put a brave front for Ginny. She has been through so much these last six months. |

saw she was excited about getting dressed up and having fun at the club so I told myself to suck it up your

daughter needs you. | admonished myself to make sure | had fun tonight as | knew Ginny would be worried

about me.

As | got ready for our night at the club, Ginny walked in and gavea hug. She said, "Mom this is going to be so

much fun. I'm really excited. Aren't you?" | looked up and said, "Oh honey tonight is going to be so much fun. |

can't wait." Ginny looked atwith as the song says "Suspicious Eyes" and said, "Mom, you need to have some

fun tonight. Let yourself go. Okay? Promise me?"

I glanced back and said, "If you don't letget ready we aren't going to have any fun. Go. I'll be down shortly

and honey, | love you. Happy New Years baby."

Ginny smiled and gavea hug and said, "Hurry up mom I'm ready to go."

| laughed as she went downstairs. | finished with my makeup and looked at myself in the mirror. Not bad |

thought. | had on a nice little black dress. Conservative and classy. It showed scleavage and stopped maybe

2 to 3 inches above my knees. | had let my hair grow out so that it was now shoulder length. After all these years

| thought I still looked good.

When we got to the club, Frank was already there waiting for us. He led us to our table which consisted of Becky

and her parents, me, Ginny and Frank. How cozy | thought. Our waiter cover and we ordered our drinks.

Dinner was preordered as it was a large group. It consisted of Jumbo Shrimp Cocktail, followed by an Arugula

Peach salad, and the main entree. | had ordered Sea Bass but others had their choice of Filet Mignon, Rack of

Lamb, or a Vegan Lasagna. The dinner was great and soon the band started to play. Frank of course was at the

bar with his cronies so | danced a couple of songs with Becky and Ginny. Before long | found myself sitting alone

at our table. | saw Ginny dancing with a handsboy, obviously enjoying herself. | told myself again that |

needed to make sure Ginny wasn't worried abouthaving fun.

Just as | got done admonishing myself | found Ginny standing over me. She said, "Mom why are you sitting here

by yourself? It's 11:30. You should be out on the dance floor. Cdance with us! Please."

| smiled and said, "Virginia Elizabeth Walker! I'm fine go have fun. Don't worry about me."

She said, "Okay mom but will you please be on the dance floor with us when the clock strikes midnight!?

| nodded yes and she said, "Promise?"

I nodded my head yes and said, "Go on and enjoy yourself. I'll be up there shortly."

| took a sip of my wine and looked back at this past year. | thought | could never have imagined how this year

turned out. Such a wild roller coaster ride of emotions. Sgood, svery bad. | took one last gulp from my

wine glass when my phone pinged.

| looked at it and it read, "Hello Gorgeous! Whatcha doing?"

Oh my. My heart started racing. It was Scottie. | took a deep breath and texted, "At the club celebrating the New

Year. You?"

My phone quickly pinged, "Hard to be celebrating anything when you are sitting by yourself at an empty table!"

My breathing started to get ragged as my head snapped around looking to see where he was at. Oh Andrea you

can't do this | said to myself. But just then my phone pinged again, "You really are so vanilla!" | laughed and felt

a warmth spread throughthat had been missing for so long!

1 got up and started to search for him. As | neared the lobby my phone pinged, "Oh Andie I've missed you so

much baby."

My legs weakened and my heart raced. Where is he? | kept looking for him and couldn't find him when suddenly |

felt two arms engulf me, lips on my neck, | heard, "Oh Andie I've longed so much for this moment."

My body, my heart, and my mind exploded with a torrent of happiness. | said, "Oh Scottie I'm so sorry. I've

missed you so much."

He spunaround and his lips found mine. | thrust my tongue into his mouth as | melded my body into his. My

god what was | doing? | panicked and pulled away. | said, "Scottie we can't do this. | promised."

It was a feeble attempt to deny my true feelings. Scottie cupped my face and said, "Andie, why do you think I'm

here tonight?"

I shook my head not knowing why as he said, "Look over there."pointing to the corner of the room where my

daughter, Ginny, was watching with a big smile.

Scottie continued, "Andie, this was all Ginny's idea. Baby she made this happen for us."

| looked at Scottie, then Ginny, then back at Scottie. He just shook his head yes as he continued to tenderly cup

my face.

| screamed, "Oh yes. Really?"
