July
Sophie
Brierley lived in St Pierre, across the street from Simon Cranidge, and she was
a kindly soul in her forties, recently divorced, with three grown up children
who had all flown the nest.
Simon
liked her as a neighbour but had never
looked at her in a sexual manner, he had had a brief affair with her sister
Lisa but that was only sex, he didn’t like her as a person, but Sophie was
different she was nice, but even then, he had seen her more as a good friend or
a big sister.
But that was before a
particularly over indulgent and boozy lunch at the Sword and Shield on a hot
July Sunday, which resulted in them standing in her hallway while her tongue
energetically explored his mouth, and with every passing moment he was warming
to her and seeing her less like a friend or a sister, in fact he saw her in an
entirely different light, so the kissing lead inexorably to her bedroom.
Simon undressed quickly and
got under the covers while she disrobed in a dimly lit corner.
“Why are you hiding over
there?”
“My figure isn’t up to bright
lights” she replied
“Nonsense you have a lovely
shape” he corrected her as he watched her pulling her pants and tights off
“Well I’m not as firm and
toned as my sister” she said “but then you would know that better than I do”
“The importance difference
between you and Lisa is that I really like you” he said as she joined him
beneath the duvet.
After they had made love she
lay with her head on his chest and said
“Well that’s not a very good
start, is it?”
“What do you mean?” he asked
puzzled
“Well I was married to Jack
for 25 years and was never unfaithful once” she replied
“Now I have a new man in my
life, who I’ve only been dating for 3 weeks, and I’ve already been unfaithful
to him” she replied and laughed out loud before adding in a more serious tone.
“We haven’t even… you know….
done it yet, I’ve only ever been with… I had only ever been with Jack and
wasn’t sure about what to do with a new man, but I don’t suppose there’s any
need to worry about that now” And she laughed again
“Now I’ve been unfaithful
numerous times, now I am a serial adulteress,” she confessed
“You’ve only done it once” he
pointed out
“I know” she said “but I
thought I might as well be hung for a sheep as a lamb”
“Well I think that’s a good
philosophy” he said “But there’s just one thing”
“What’s that?”
“Well as we’ve already broken
the ice, so to speak” he said “I wouldn’t mind being the new man in your life”
“I would really like that”
she said and kissed his chest “But Lisa won’t like it”
“Lisa’s not going to get it”
he retorted and pulled her beneath the duvet.
