I'd moved my print shop to a new location across town recently for a cheaper and more long-term lease. One of my first customers at the new place was a guy named Gerry. As we spoke, I found out that he was the owner of a small business as well. Gerry was a cabinetmaker and created some primo custom-built cabinetry. He'd come in to get some updated cards and stationery and wanted something with a little more pizazz than his former printer offered.
We spoke for some time, and I threw out a few suggestions, including using pictures of his work as the background. During our back and forth, I found out that we were the same age and both single once again. Our conversation continued far longer than my usual client interaction because we seemed to have a lot in common. Another hour later, we knew each other's life story, and I could see us becoming good friends.
When he realized how long he'd been there, he apologetically took his leave. I told him not to worry and that I'd had a good time getting to know him. After I watched him walk out the door, a feeling of infatuation washed over me. I couldn't explain it other than we seemed so similar, and it was so easy to talk to him.
The following day, I put together the proofs and emailed them to Gerry. He enthusiastically approved them with a phone call. While talking, he asked, "So, Jim, how long will it take to get everything done?"
"Well, the business cards will take the longest because they are four-color process. However, I can have the letterhead and envelopes to you in a day or two."
"Don't worry about that. Just let me know when it's all done, and I'll swing by and pick it all up at once."
"Okay, then I'll see you in a few days. Have a good week!" I offered a bit too excitedly.
After getting off the phone, I felt like an idiot for getting so excited about seeing him again. But, rather than feel foolish for my giddy behavior on the phone, I put that energy into doing my best work for him.
It was only two days later that I had everything finished for Gerry. I decided to drop it off to him since I had to run a few other errands anyway. I pulled up to his address and found that he had a substantial building alongside his home. I parked the car and headed inside the building's entrance. The first room was a small office area. On the desk, there was a sign that read, 'Please Press Button to Ring Bell.' In parentheses below, it stated, 'Do Not Enter Workshop Alone!'
As I read the sign, I heard some sort of heavy equipment running back in the shop. I pressed the button a couple of times and noticed no interruption in the machinery noise. Approaching the door to the workshop, I found that it was unlocked. Pushing it open a little, I glanced toward the sound and saw a woman hunched over one of the machines.
The fact that it was a woman didn't throw me so much as that she was wearing a short blue-jean skirt with nude-colored stockings and heels. She had terrific legs that had just the right amount of muscle tone. I always disliked the skinny legs on girls depicted in all the clothing ads. Gerry was a lucky guy to have a woman like that working with him.
I didn't want to yell and startle her, so I pulled the door closed and tried the bell once again. After waiting another minute or two, I placed the items on the desk and wrote a short note. Sorry I missed you, Gerry. I was in the neighborhood and decided to drop everything off. Call me with any questions or concerns. Thanks, Jim.
Driving back to my shop, I felt a little disappointed that I didn't get to spend any time talking to Gerry. But as I pulled into my parking space, my mind wandered back to the sexy legs of his assistant. I imagined him moving in behind her as raising that skirt to find a bare leaking snatch just ready for the taking.
Walking back into my shop, my mind continued to stray as I imagined it was me moving in behind his assistant and taking her vigorously. Shutting off the equipment while slipping my hand up her inner thigh until I reached her stocking tops. Lightly grazing that soft, smooth skin just below her entrance. Pushing her torso down and watching the skirt rising to expose her plump derriere, left exposed by her black lace thong.
In my mind, my hands gripped and fondled her smooth, inviting ass. I could hear her breathing becoming erratic as I continued to caress those meaty globes. As my hand pushed the thong aside and tickled her pucker, the phone rang, breaking my trance. Looking down, I realized that both of my hands were in my crotch with my pants open. Even my underwear was pushed aside as I cradled my sack in one hand while stroking myself with the other.
I grabbed the phone on the fourth ring as I struggled to cover myself. "Hello," I offered as I picked up the receiver.
"Hey, Jim. This is Gerry. Did I catch you at a bad time?"
Realizing that I must sound as irritated as I was, I calmed down and answered, "No, just a little frazzled. Does everything look good?"
"You know that you didn't need to drop my things off, but yes, it looks better than good! Did you ring the bell or just leave the boxes on my desk?"
"Both, actually. I tried the bell a couple of times but got no answer."
"Again, sorry I wasn't here to pay you and go over things in person. How about I swing by your shop around six, and we can go have a beer. That way, I can pay you and thank you in person for your great work."
"Sure, that sounds good. I do have a confession to make, though. After trying the bell a couple of times, I broke the rules and tried the workshop door."
"It was locked, right?"
"Actually, no, it wasn't. But, I have to say that your assistant has spectacular legs! I hope that's not too inappropriate to say."
"Not at all. I'm sure she'd be flattered by your comment. She's not at all prissy and wouldn't be offended."
"If it's not too bold of me to ask, are you hitting that?"
"Well, let's just say it's complicated."
"Okay, I get the message."
"We can talk a little more about that tonight, but I gotta get back to work, or I'll never get done."
"Okay, see you later."
After hanging up, I followed Gerry's advice and got back to work too. I'd rather that than sitting around thinking about those fantastic stocking-clad legs of his assistant. Even with keeping myself busy, my mind kept picturing what I should have done to her.
I got to a good stopping point in my work and glanced at the clock to see that it was five-thirty. Having several invoices to print, I headed for my desk to get started. The time raced by as I clambered away on the keyboard. Startled out of my focus, I turned to see Gerry walking into my shop.
"Hey Jim, are you close to being done for the night?"
"Yes! An hour at the desk is far too long for me."
"I understand what you're saying. I hate paperwork more than anything, but we don't get paid without it, do we?"
"No, we don't. Speaking of which, here is your bill."
Gerry sat and wrote me a check while I closed out the computer and then walked around the shop to make sure everything was put away. With everything stored and his check written, I stuck it in the safe, and we headed out the door.
"So, where are we going?" I inquired.
"It's a little family-owned place just a couple of blocks away, so I figured that we'd just walk. Is that okay with you?"
"Sure, that sounds great! Do they have any food cause I'm starving?"
"Yes, they make a thick juicy burger that reminds you of grilling on charcoal."
"Sounds delicious!" I practically bellowed as we headed down the deserted sidewalk. Gerry laughed at my reply as he led me into the busy small tavern.
"Do you want to sit at the bar?" Gerry questioned.
"It seems kind of loud over there. How about a booth over in the corner where it will be easier to talk. I'd really like to get to know you better," I suggested and suddenly realized that it was precisely what I'd say to a woman on a date.
Realizing my embarrassment, Gerry piped in with, "That sounds great! I'd like to get to know you better as well," as he placed his hand on my shoulder in a friendly guy sort of way. He then pulled me toward a corner booth in the furthest corner of the place.
We both slid all the way across our seats as if we were making room for a girlfriend or spouse. We noticed our maneuvers simultaneously and chuckled. "I guess it's just an old habit," I submitted.
"Yeah, we're just a couple of old trained seals. Obedient for life and unable to change."
"I'm afraid that you're probably right about that, Gerry. But, I'd certainly like to be able to try something new."
I was looking at the menu as I made that statement. Raising my eyes afterward, I could swear that I saw a wicked little twinkle in Gerry's eyes. Although he turned quickly to acknowledge the attractive young waitress approaching our table. The thought lingered in my mind as he ordered for himself.
I fleetingly imagined it was Gerry dressed in woman's clothes and bent over the equipment in his shop. I was moving my hands up his thighs and once again shut off the machine. My free hand was now moving above the stockings and caressing his smooth and bare ass. As I moved my second hand up, I began compressing his firm cheeks with both hands. Moving closer to the cleft, I bumped a protrusion with both of my thumbs.
As I attempted to move his g-string, Gerry 'Ahem'd' me rather loudly. Feeling quite flustered at my thoughts and the depth of my daydream, I blushed deeply.
"Oh, crap. Sorry about that. I just was thinking about something at work for a moment. Okay, I'll have a Miller Lite and a bacon cheeseburger medium with fries."
"Okay, I'll be right back with your drinks," the waitress offered as she turned away.
Still feeling quite disconcerted, I realized that my cock was still very hard, and there was a small wet spot showing in my jeans. Fortunately, no one else could see either. To make doubly sure, I unfolded my napkin and place it on my lap just before the waitress returned with our drinks.
After she delivered our drinks and moved on, Gerry lifted his up to toast. I followed his lead as he submitted, "Here's to the beginning of what I'm sure will be a great friendship."
As our glasses clinked, I added somewhat subconsciously, "And so much more."
Gerry smiled that evil little grin again as we both tilted our glasses back and slurped away. I seemed to be in a constant state of mortification as I replayed my last comment repeatedly in my mind. Attempting to stall my reinvolvement in any sort of conversation, I slowly drained my glass completely. Gerry just watched as my eighteen-ounce beer vanished before his eyes.
I put the glass back on the table and kept my eyes low. After a long pause, Gerry said, "There is no need to feel any embarrassment with me. I'm in the same position as you. We both seem to need a friend that knows what we've gone through and isn't uneasy about talking about it all. I hope that we can be that for each other. I know that I could use a close and understanding friend in my life after all the abuse I've taken at the hands of women."
Trying to lighten the conversation, I burst out with, "So I guess that means that you're not hitting your assistant with the sexy legs?"
"No, I'm not. But, you'd be surprised by what you'd find if you mess with that one."
"Ah, so she's not one to mess with?" I questioned.
"Well, let's just say that I'm sure she'd love the attention but is not everyone's cup of tea."
Just about then, the waitress appeared with our food and another beer for me. Addressing Gerry, she asked, "Would you like another Coke, sir?"
"No, thank you," Gerry replied before she turned and walked away.
The conversation stopped as we both dug into our burgers. I took a few more chugs of my beer to wash down the food that I was inhaling.
"So, what do you think of the burgers?" Gerry inquired.
Having just taken another bite, I mumbled, "They're yummy."
Gerry started to laugh at my awkward reply, and after gulping down my food, I joined in. We got to snickering so hard that Gerry accidentally knocked his phone off of the table. He bent down to get it but fumbled it in his greasy hands and then couldn't reach it at all.
Sitting back up, he appealed, "Do you think you can reach it? I can't quite get to it, now that I bumped it further toward you."
Wiping my mouth and shaking out my arms like a man to the rescue, I commanded, "Stand back and watch me work." I slipped my head under the tabletop to try and find it. Gerry had managed to drop his phone into the corner on my side. Unable to reach it while still seated, I slid down onto my hands and knees. Upon retrieving it, I promptly bumped my head on the table bottom.
