My Life After the Disaster

Chapter Ten

Alexia drops me back off home, kissing me goodbye and making plans to see each other again tomorrow. “Is it okay if I call you my girlfriend?” Alexia asks me, looking at me from her car window.

I smile at her and say, “Of course you can. I would love to be your girlfriend.” I then lean in and kiss her tenderly on the lips while she cups her hand over my face, kissing me back.

She pulls away from the kiss, smiling at me and says, “Alright then my beautiful girlfriend I will see you tomorrow. Until then you have my number. Have a goodnight.”

I smile back at her as I wave goodbye and head toward the door. I turn around, unlock the door and go inside, closing the door behind me.

From upstairs I hear a commotion and then a fit of laughter. And a door opens up. “It’s okay Guinevere, there’s nothing wrong with that,” I hear a male voice say. With no idea what he’s referring to. “I’ll see you again. I really had a lot of fun. So much fun,” he says, sounding s****l.

That must be Joseph. They must’ve been having a ton of s*x. I blush at the thought of it, remembering my experience with Rose. After we ate our pizza we got back at it, this time in the kitchen. I shake my head, taking the memories from my head. Damn, Alexia is so hot she’s curvy in all the right ways and I love her breasts, so perky and round.

Joseph turns the corning coming down the stairs and breaking me from my thoughts. “Oh, hey Rose. I didn’t know you were home. I was just heading out. How did your show go,” he asks me awkwardly.

I smile at him, knowing exactly why he’s flustered and say, “It wasn’t my show Joseph but it went good. I ended up wearing two dresses and everyone loved it. I was invited to stay for the after party as well but I decided to leave as it’s just not my scene. So, I called up my girlfriend and we went to her place for pizza.”

“You have a girlfriend?” my aunt says, stumbling down the stairs. “When did this happen? And why am I only hearing about it now?” She gets up from the floor and walks over to me, straighten out her dress, which had gotten ruffled up.

“I met her today actually and we had an instant connect, like with Annabelle and Daniel, who you haven’t met yet. But you’ve experience it yourself with Joseph here. Who seems to be a lovely man,” I tell her, smiling over at the two of them.

“Well, I’m glad the show went well and you did a good job. I’ll be on my way. It was lovely to see you again,” Joseph says, making his way out of the house.

“Just wait,” Guinevere says, running over to him, she wraps her arms around him and kisses him on the lips.

He pulls away from the kiss and says, “Goodnight Guinevere, I’ll see you again tomorrow. I’m going to take you on my boat.”

“Okay. Goodnight Joseph, I’ll keep you in my dreams,” she says with a smile as he walks out the door. She closes the door behind him then turns her attention to me. “Now I want all of the details. How did you meet and what did you do at her place?”

“Well, we met at a café just up the road from here. I saw her sitting by herself and I was just drawn to her. She’s so beautiful Guinevere. When I look at her it’s like the air just comes out of my lungs and I can’t breathe. We talked for hours then I had to leave to go to my modeling job. When I was done I called her to come get me, I don’t know what I was thinking. I had just met her, I didn’t even know if she could drive or if she had a car. But she answered and she has a car and she drives. I told her I didn’t want to go back home because I know you’d be with Joseph and I wanted to give you guys some time alone,” I tell her, sitting down on the couch to rest my legs.

“What happened after that?” she asks me, sitting down beside me, completely invested in the story.

I smile, thinking about it and say, “I asked her about her living arrangements then she told me she rented a one bedroom apartment so I told her we could go there if she didn’t mind. But I was hungry as it was supper time and I hadn’t eaten since lunch, which was just a sandwich so we stopped to get pizza along the way at this great pizza place that she often goes to. Once we got the pizza we went back to her place which was a big apartment complex, she was on the second floor. Things got a bit steamy after that. It was magical. And wonderful all at the same time. We’re getting together again tomorrow as she doesn’t have any classes and I don’t have work.”

“Okay, I won’t ask for specifics on your s*x together though I am curious,” she tells me, looking at me with a smile.

“Gross Guinevere, you’re my aunt. You’re practically my mother. I wouldn’t ask about your s*x acts with Joseph and I certainly don’t want to know,” I tell her, getting up from the couch. “I’m going to take this stuff off my face then you can tell me how your date went with Joseph. I want all the details minus the s*x stuff. I’ll be back” I walk out of the living room and head to the bathroom. I stand in front of the sink and turn the water on, bend over and pull the water up into my face, rubbing my face clean of the makeup. I turn the water off and grab a makeup wipe to get rid of the excess of it. Tossing the makeup wipe into the garbage bin once I’m done and walk out of the bathroom.

“I don’t know why you dislike makeup so much. It enhances your natural beauty,” Guinevere tells me as I make my way back over to her.

“I don’t know why, I just don’t. I never have. But I got into it because of mom. She always loved wearing makeup and said it made her look pretty. I didn’t understand, at all. I always thought she was beautiful with or without the makeup,” I tell her, sitting back down on the couch. “So, the details?”

She situates herself and says, “Okay, so he picked me up and brought me out to a fancy seafood restaurant. I got the lobster and he got the crab, we tried each other’s meals, they were both great. I would definitely go there again. He was just as sweet and charming as I remembered. We laughed, he told me stories about his time away from me when he was in the military. He told me about woman he saw and couldn’t get passed the first date as he was always thinking about me. Once dinner was done he drove me back here and I invited him inside. I showed him around the place, as I didn’t have this house when we were together twenty five years ago. He says he loves it and he wouldn’t mind living here permanently. But since we’re just getting back together now we’re waiting to make it serious. Beyond boyfriend and girlfriend. We truly love each other. The way he looks at me and holds me in his arms. It’s magic. And the sex.”

“I’m going to stop you right there. I don’t need to know about the s*x. I’m glad you had a great first date with your long lost lover. I’m going to change into my PJs and curl up in bed, possibly send some text messages to Alexia,” I tell her, standing back up.

“Alexia? That’s her name? It’s a very beautiful name. You’ll have to tell me more about her,” Guinevere tells me.

“It is and another time. For now I’m going to my room. You can do whatever you do when you’re alone. Have a goodnight,” I tell her as I walk away. I head straight to my room and close the door before she can say anything else. Walking over to my dresser I pull out my most comfortable pajamas and quickly remove my clothes to put them on. I walk over to my bed and get under my blanket, holding my phone out in front of me I send off a text to Alexia saying, ‘Ever since I left you I can’t get you out of my mind. I keep reliving the moments of us entangled together, making sweet and beautiful love. The way your hands felt on my body and how our mouths moved together. I feel myself getting wet just thinking about it. I miss you Alexia, I hope I don’t sound like a creep. But I love you.’

I get a response right away, saying, ‘Of course you don’t sound like a creep. I can’t get you out of my mind either and I’m replaying our s****l encounter over and over again. I love you too Rose, so very much. It kind of scares me.’

I smile, looking at her words and send back a response saying, ‘It scares me too a little bit. But you don’t need to be scared. I don’t ever want anyone else but you, ever again.’

‘I feel the same way Rose. Not ever. Just you,’ she tells me immediately.

I hold my phone to my chest, smiling frantically. I must be dreaming because this can’t be real. But if I am I don’t want to wake up cause it’s perfect. I close my eyes, reliving my time with Alexia and eventually drift off to sleep.
