Cowboy Up

Monday night she showed up at my place with the clothes she would need for work for the rest of the week.

"No more rushing off in the morning" she said. Now the mornings can include snuggle and cuddle time."

"Do I need to hire bodyguards? I'm sure your roommates will be coming after me to cut off my balls."

"Brenda and Maria are no longer a problem. I set them straight when I got home yesterday."

By the end of the month I had to admit it to myself. Chris had me pussy whipped. Actually I was snugly, cuddly pussy-whipped. I didn't want to get up and leave her in the mornings. A couple of days she had to push me out of bed. It was finally obvious to me that I needed to get off my ass and cowboy up.

It was a Friday night and Chris asked me what I wanted to do on Saturday.

"I was thinking we might go shopping for your ring."

She almost screwed herself out of the ring. She reduced me to ruin that night and I had a hard time mustering up the energy to get out of bed in the morning, but Chris was on a mission. She pulled me out of bed and practically drug me to the mall. By ten o'clock she had a ring on her finger. I'd taken a knee right there in the jewelry store, proposed and then slid the ring on her finger when she said yes.

After buying the ring we went to Pegasus for breakfast and discussed the timing of the wedding. We had both already done the big wedding thing and all Chris wanted was to get it done. We decided to get the license on Monday and then have a civil ceremony on Friday. After breakfast we went home and Chris flat wore me out again

I was fixing dinner that night while Chris was on the phone with her mother. When the call ended Chris asked:

"Will a change in plans upset you?"

"I don't know. What's up?"

I want my mother at the wedding, but she can't make it until the week after next."

"I don't suppose it will kill me to have to wait an extra week."

"Thank you baby; I'll make it up to you. Starting right after dinner. Sound good?"

Indeed it did.

The lights were low and the music was soft and flowing. We waltzed around the floor, her head buried in my shoulder and me breathing in the sweet scent of her perfume. Her leg rubbed my erection and I was looking forward to putting that erection where it would do the most good. A quick glance at my watch told me that this was going to be our last dance. She caught my glance, smiled and asked:

"Someone getting a bit anxious?"

I smiled and said "You can bet your sweet ass I am."

"I'm ready if you are."

"Then let's get out of here."

I waltzed Lois back to our table to get her purse and then we got out of there.

Lois?

Yes Lois. As mentioned earlier I was promoted to the regional manager's position when Jack retired. The jobs required visits to the several offices in my region. You've read it before so I guess you already know what's coming. I came home early from my first trip as a regional manager and caught Chris in bed with Jeff who was the guy she was with at the retirement party for Jack. She tried to convince me that it meant nothing; all it was was her having 'a last fling' before getting married and settling down. She loved me and it was only sex with Jeff. I didn't buy it and I kicked her ass out. Her dating others while she was dating me and her fucking Jeff while wearing my ring told me just what kind of woman she was and would most likely continue to be. Thank God her mother's availability caused the wedding to be postponed.

Christine was the end of the line for me. No more getting involved with women trying to come up with trying to come up with one I could make the long haul with. It was going to be Lois, Tanya and Marge from now on.

And there would be no more listening to voices telling me to "Cowboy up."
