Evening Gentleman Page 7


  NATHAN

  I won’t give you time to miss me.

  I knew that she wanted this trip to be as romantic as possible. I wanted the same thing. The more I wanted her the more my mind raced to other people that I saw. I needed to deny those feelings. I wanted to make sure my marriage worked.

  When I returned to the room with a bottle of chardonnay there were lit candles around the room. The fragrance was tickling my nose and drawing me into the room. Luther Vandross was playing over the room.

  LESLIE

  I wanted this trip to be about you and me. I know that I hadn’t been romantic in a while. And when I think about the birthday surprise that you gave me my heart flutters. You are so special to me. I don’t want to lose you to anyone. If there is something that I am not doing I want you to tell me. We can’t make it if we don’t communicate.

  I tried to speak but she placed her hand over my mouth. She began to undress me. Once I was standing fully naked she led me to the bathroom where the tub was filled with bubbles, and rose petals gently lay on the bubbles.

  I sat in the water trying not to mess up the petals.

  NATHAN

  Baby this is….

  Before I could finish she kissed me. I wasn’t used to this…someone taking full control. I didn’t want to feel weak but I allowed myself to relax and enjoy. She grabbed a sponge and after lathering it up with soap she made slow circles on my back and chest.

  I didn’t say a word. After washing my entire body she grabbed me by the hand and as I stepped out of the tub the excess water trickled down my body. I could sense how bad she wanted me as I wanted her. As she began to dry me off she kissed each part of my body. My nipples stood at attention as she brushed them with her tongue. We walked into the bedroom where chocolate and white-chocolate strawberries awaited. She guided me to lie across the bed as she straddled me. She took a candle from the nightstand and held it over me. I knew what was coming next but wasn’t sure that I was ready for it. Without a second thought hot candle wax dripped on my chest and down my stomach. The sensation was too intense. I could not yell or scream. Only moans of pleasure escaped me as I felt the tip of her fingernails danced down the side of me.

  She started to lick inside of my navel. Obviously she touched a nerve because I felt it down to the tip of my manhood. She began to suck on my nipples, causing me to shiver. She made her way down to my manhood. She made circles on it, causing juices to flow out before I climaxed. She took her finger and touched the tip. When she pulled her finger off and string of pre-cum was attached.

  Before I knew her next move, my legs were in the air. My ass was lifted off of the bed just enough for her to tongue me. This has never happened before. As her tongue danced around my hole I squirmed and squealed. I finally broke loose and flipped on my stomach. Wrong move - because she spread my tight ass cheeks apart and began to eat again. I grabbed the pillow and bit it. She ate me for what seem like an eternity, giving me pleasure after pleasure. After my body shook uncontrollably she knew her mission was complete. I tried to turn over but my body was so weak. I felt wetness between my stomach and the sheets. This woman has caused me to climax without me touching myself or penetrating anyone.

  I turned my head and noticed a smile on her face.

  LESLIE

  How do you feel?

  I was speechless. The only thing that I could do was breath in and out. I had to ask myself, “What just happened?”

  NATHAN

  Where did all of that come from?

  LESLIE

  Did you enjoy it?

  NATHAN

  More than I can say.

  As I lay on my stomach she took her hand and began to massage my balls. My body jerked with each touch. She pulled my manhood from under me and backward. I felt warmth and coldness at the same time. I realized that she was sucking me with an ice cube in her mouth.

  NATHAN

  Oh my gosh….baby…please.

  My pleas went unnoticed. She used her deep-throat skills to satisfy me the best way that she knew how. I could not hold back any longer. I released another hot load in her mouth. I don’t think that she was ready for that. She hopped from bed and straight to the sink. She came back wiping her mouth.

  LESLIE

  Why didn’t you tell me that you were about to do that?

  NATHAN

  In my head I did. The words just wouldn’t come out of my mouth.

  LESLIE (still wiping her mouth)

  You nasty.

  NATHAN

  You just licked my ass and you calling me nasty.

  LESLIE

  I just washed your ass too.

  She noticed that my manhood was still standing. She quickly straddled me, slowly easing down. She moved back and forward with her hands on my muscular chest. The excitement had both of us sweating. She was riding me like a winning racehorse. Her prize would be an electrifying orgasm. Soon she grabbed ahold of my hands as we exploded together.

  Three times in one night. We had gotten that old thing back that was missing. I was hoping that things wouldn’t ever change again.

  Let’s Go Back

  I arrived at my office around 11:00 a.m. because we had just gotten back from the islands. I knew that I would have a stack of files on my desk but my associates did a great job of handling things for me. I walked into my office and closed my door. I propped my feet on my desk and leaned back in my chair. I was exhausted from the trip.

  My secretary knocked once on the door and walked in.

  DONNA

  There is a Mr. O’Keefe Hunter here to see you.

  NATHAN

  O’Keefe Hunter? That name doesn’t ring a bell.

  DONNA

  Well apparently he has been here before because here is his file.

  I took the file and skimmed over it. After reviewing the application and the credit report my decision was already made.

  DONNA

  Do you want me to send him in?

  I instructed Donna to give me a few minutes to get myself together. For the life of me I could not place him. The young man walked into my office and I remembered his face. He walked in and shook my hand. We both sat down and began to explain his file. I told him that I was going to have to deny his loan because he had no credit or collateral.

  O’KEEFE

  What do you mean deny?

  NATHAN

  Well I can’t extend you credit because you have no way of paying it back, nothing to secure the loan with and this would be your first loan. In the safety of my company I can’t take that risk. I would lose money if you didn’t repay.

  O’KEEFE

  I told you that night what I needed the money for.

  NATHAN

  That’s right. I remember now. The model.

  O’KEEFE

  Exactly.

  NATHAN

  I believe in going after your dreams but I still can’t take this risk.

  O’Keefe’s eyes grew fiery red.

  O’KEEFE

  How are you going to fuck me and then turn me down for this loan?

  NATHAN

  Would you please bring your voice down?

  O’KEEFE

  You have made a hell of a mistake.

  NATHAN

  Let me explain something to you. That is the nature of some business affairs. You have to give to get. Unfortunately you gave but you can’t get.

  O’Keefe stood up and took my letter opener from the holder. He stabbed my desk so hard that the opener stood alone in the desk.

  NATHAN

  Do you feel better?

  O’KEEFE

  I will in about an hour.

  NATHAN

  Don’t threaten me little one.

  O’KEEFE

  I don’t make threats I make promises.

  O’Keefe picked up a picture frame from my desk. He looked at the photo and smirked.

  O’KEEFE

  Is this your wife?

  I stood and snatched the frame
from him. I directed him out of my office and out of my building.

  O’KEEFE

  You won’t see another grocery store.

  I closed the door and started to walk into my office. I hated that my associates and other clients saw that action.

  I was about to make a phone call when I heard a loud crash. I slammed the phone and ran out of my office. I found a Dodge Ram sitting in my building. I saw people running and papers flying. There were a host of people running towards the truck and trying to push it out of the way. At first I thought they were trying to get the truck out of the building until I saw feet under the front passenger tire. I went into complete shock. I raced to the driver side and opened the door. The keys were still in the ignition. It hit me not to move the truck because I didn’t know what damage it may cause to the victim.

  I picked up my cell phone to call Leslie but she didn’t answer. After several more times she still did not answer. I put my head on my desk. I could not believe what just happened. My business office was destroyed and my secretary was killed. The only person that I figured could have done this was O’Keefe.

  Earlier I explained to the police that I had a disgruntled customer that was upset because his loan was not approved. After they ran the tag number and registration on the truck I found out that it didn’t belong to O’Keefe.

  What had I gotten myself into? This guy knew where I worked and he saw a picture of my wife. What could possibly happen next?

  Superlover Man

  For the last three weeks Aiden has been house-sitting for Demarcus while he was away. Today he decided to invite his best friend, Omaya, over to watch the Superbowl game. He was sure that Demarcus would not mind one person coming over.

  Aiden ordered pizza and wings. He made a corn dip and sausage rotel to go along with it. He placed the food on the coffee table awaiting Omaya’s arrival. Aiden and Omaya went to college together. They shared everything with each other. As soon as Aiden went back into the kitchen the doorbell rang. He galloped to the door. When he opened it, there stood Omaya.

  AIDEN

  It is about time that you got here. The game starts in ten mintues.

  OMAYA

  I had to drop off something.

  AIDEN

  A piece of trade?

  OMAYA

  As if you had to ask. I let him spend the night.

  AIDEN

  Are you crazy?

  OMAYA

  I don’t need a lecture. So tell me; how was your work week?

  AIDEN

  It was ok.

  OMAYA

  Have you spoken to Leslie or her lying ass husband Nathan?

  AIDEN

  Those are the last two that I want to speak to. I see her in the halls but we don’t even look at one another.

  OMAYA

  How does that feel? To be friends with someone and to learn that you were sleeping with her husband.

  Before Aiden could respond to Omaya’s question he received a text message. He looked at him phone and it was from Demarcus.

  DEMARCUS

  What is going on? Make sure that you watch the game tonight.

  I will be home soon.

  Aiden responded to Demarcus’ text by telling him that he was going to watch the game and that he invited a friend over. Demarcus replied that all was good. Aiden placed his cell on the table and grabbed the remote. When he turned to the game they were announcing the player’s stats. To their surprise #2 – Demarcus Slaughter appeared on the screen. Aiden’s mouth fell open. He could not believe what he was seeing.

  OMAYA

  Isn’t that you boy?

  AIDEN

  Um – Yeah.

  OMAYA

  Why didn’t you tell me that you were staying with a pro football player.

  AIDEN

  Hell I didn’t know.

  Demarcus played for the Birmingham Bengals. This was the Bengals fifth time going to the Superbowl but it was Demarcus’ first time.

  They continued to watch the game. They jumped at exciting plays that their newfound player made.

  Fourth quarter was crucial. The Bengals were tied with the opposing team. The Bengals had the ball and they were on the 35-yard line. On the snap, the quarterback threw the ball to Demarcus.

  The Birmingham Bengals are headed to the Big Apple for the Super Bowl. The Birmingham Bengals' 23-17 wins NFC Championship Game.

  A correspondent pulled Demarcus over for a quick interview. She asked him about some of the plays in the game and what did he expect for the Superbowl. He answered very intelligently and rapidly.

  DEMARCUS (Looking into the camera)

  One thing I want to say before I go into the locker room is that I texted you before the game to make sure that you were watching. I love you, and I am coming home to claim you. See you soon.

  Demarcus runs off to catch up with his teammates. His statement totally confused everyone. The commentators began to question each other about who he was talking to.

  Omaya looked over at Aiden. Aiden’s mouth was completely on the floor.

  OMAYA

  I guess you are about to be a wife.

  Still

  After the game I decided to call Aiden. After a few rings he finally answered. I explained to him everything that happened to my office and that my secretary was killed in the accident. I could tell that he didn’t want to be bothered. His answers were very short and to the point. I tried to get him to converse but there was nothing.

  AIDEN

  Does your wife know that you are talking to me?

  NATHAN

  I am a grown man. She does not control me.

  AIDEN

  Apparently she does. She is making you sell my house.

  NATHAN

  I want to apologize for that. I never meant for that to happen.

  AIDEN

  It is all okay. Believe me.

  I wanted to know exactly what Aiden had been up to. Even though things were not like they used to be I still had feelings for him. I could not bear the thought of someone else being in his life. I wanted him for myself but I knew that I could not have him. On the flip side, I wanted my wife and loved her with all of my heart.

  NATHAN

  What have you been up to?

  AIDEN

  Living and working. Look I have to go.

  NATHAN

  No…please…talk to me for a few minutes. I have been through so much lately and I have no one to talk to.

  AIDEN

  How about Leslie Edwards?

  NATHAN

  You know what I mean. I could talk to you and you would listen intently. Don’t get me wrong she listens but it’s not the same.

  AIDEN

  Okay.

  NATHAN

  To be honest…I have missed you. I want you in my life and in my world.

  AIDEN

  You know that is not possible.

  NATHAN

  Don’t let your pride get in the way. You know that you still have feelings for me.

  AIDEN

  I did. But you hurt me.

  NATHAN

  How about we go away for the weekend?

  AIDEN

  No can do.

  NATHAN

  What if we went and got a room? I need to make love to you.

  AIDEN

  How about your get off the phone with me and go fuck your wife.

  Aiden ended the call before I could say anything else. I quickly called him back.

  NATHAN

  Before you say anything I want to apologize. I was wrong. But let me ask you something. I know you want to make love.

  AIDEN

  I do, but not with you.

  NATHAN

  We make damn good loving.

  AIDEN

  Okay…and?

  NATHAN

  Baby my dick is aching for that sweet juicy round booty.

  Aiden just held the phone. I heard no response from him.

  NATHAN

 
Are you just going to leave me hanging?

  AIDEN

  Nathan I don’t want to talk about that. If you have a legitimate conversation then we can talk.

  NATHAN

  You are right. I have been drinking and I let it get the best of me. But you need to take care of your man.

  AIDEN

  I don’t have a man.

  NATHAN

  Yes you do. You just won’t acknowledge me. Think about all the things that I have done for you. Vacations, jewelry, great sex, a house.

  AIDEN

  Really a house?

  NATHAN

  Well it is still yours if you want if. Just come back to me.

  AIDEN

  Look, go talk to your wife and leave me the hell alone. I am about done with this conversation.

  NATHAN

  I want you to remember that sword cuts both ways.

  AIDEN

  What are you talking about?

  NATHAN

  That motherfucker that you are fucking. Shit comes out Aiden.

  AIDEN

  Okay if you say so.

  NATHAN

  I have a few friends that are watching you for me.

  AIDEN

  You don’t need anyone to watch me.

  NATHAN

  I have to protect my investments.

  AIDEN

  Investment! Man please! Maybe we should talk for a while or period.

  NATHAN

  That’s you that don’t want to talk to me. Don’t throw that in my face as an alternative punishment or something.

  AIDEN

  I really don’t have time for this.

  NATHAN

  Don’t you hang up this damn phone. You see how we allow foolishness to come between us. We used to be able to tease each other and everything was all good.

  AIDEN

  Things have changed Nathan.

  NATHAN

  I love you. It’s because of my undying love for you that I take so much. I still love you even when I’m told not to talk with you. I know that there is no chance in hell for us. And I agree that I’m stupid. It’s funny that I am holding on to the hope of you. I will be here baby when the smoke clears.

  AIDEN

  Well the smoke has cleared.

  NATHAN

  Usually when I am on a tangent like this, you would say that I am wearing my feelings on my sleeves, or I’m making it all about me, or I am playing the victim. In the past that was probably somewhat true, but now that I see things better, fact is that I am no longer holding stuff in and afraid to say what’s on my mind, and I am not walking on eggshells around people anymore. As far as you are concerned, you know that you mean the world to me and that I do not want to lose you as a friend, but I can see how you are making a difference in me.
