'Pixie' Pt. 04

"You be gentle with her and she be gentle with you and both have good time, yes?"

"I hope so Ani."

At finishing time, the two girls walked to the carpark together and Ania explained her plan for Friday night.

"Thank you, Ani. I could never have asked him without your help, and I'll feel safe because you and Jamie will be there too."

As I drove her home, Ania explained to me what had happened during the day and what was planned for Friday.

"And he doesn't mind if we make love with Angie after he has gone home?"

"I think he not have girlfriend for long time, he like Angie so not mind if we get together after we leave."

"We may be going back to the parents on the last Friday if they get on very well" I said, laughing.

"I tell both to take time, maybe few dates before any sex."

"I hope it all works out for them" I finished.

On Thursday, Angela and Jack smiled at each other across the workroom but barely spoke as she was still nervous about men in general and about the upcoming date on Friday night, in particular. Ania had been coaching Jack on what his date liked and didn't like.

"My past is a lot different to hers, I was inexperienced and suffered for it but Angela was abused and beaten, what do I do and what do I say that won't bring that into her mind and scare her off?" Jack asked Ania.

"Hmm... do you love your mother?" she asked, catching him by surprise by totally changing the subject.

"Of course I do, we get on very well but why bring her up? Ohh I see, treat her as if I was taking Mum out somewhere."

"Yes, you take her to dinner, but not talk about work, then go dancing but maybe no slow dance to start, we just four friends out to have nice time okay?" and he nodded, "You dance with her, then with me and Jamie dance with her, maybe you hold hands in car back to her apartment. You do what she does, NOT try to kiss her but if she kisses you, no tongues or hands!" and she made squeezing gestures.

"I can do that; I want her to have a good time."

"Good, she in charge, I talk to her at lunch, now we work."

"Yes Ma'am" he replied, grinning.

It was lunchtime before Ania had the chance to talk with Angela because her friend had been in conference about her current project.

"He happy to come with us tomorrow night, I give him rules to follow so he be good boy."

"What sort of rules?"

Ania told her and she tried not to laugh.

"I have my own rules, very similar to yours so we should have a good time, but I'll make up my own mind if I want to kiss him or not" Angela said.

Chapter 39.

The two of us had not been neglecting my parents for the last four weeks but as we were working, there was only time in the evenings to do things with them. I still helped Dad before dinner when the evenings were nice, as did Ania with Mum but not so much on the weekend apart from Sunday afternoons, as we were busy elsewhere.

They were delighted when I told them that I had been offered a job at the engineering company for the following year when Bob retired. We had a few drinks to celebrate and later, during a visit across the landing to the bathroom, I heard that we weren't the only ones celebrating my news with a bedtime love session.

During Friday at work, Ania had tried not to laugh at Angela and Jack because they looked so nervous but eventually it was time for her to collect her wages and go home. She and I would arrive at Angela's at seven and Jack at seven-thirty so that we could calm her nerves before he arrived.

The restaurant was booked for eight, but it was only a few minutes away and a short walk from there to the club. We explained to Mum and Dad that we were matchmaking for two of the people Ania worked with who were nervous of dating for different reasons (we didn't go into details).

"They both very nice people, he not big but will protect her, she want nice man not strong one" Ania explained and I added,

"He is slim and the same height as me but has studied Karate for many years, if this works then I will suggest he starts to train Angela in the basics. She is slightly shorter and black of Ugandan parents and is beautiful but timid around men."

"They are work friends, but we are hoping to get them together tonight when we go to dinner and clubbing afterwards. We will stay at her flat again, but he won't yet but maybe in the future if it works out for them, we will be keeping in touch with them, while we are at college" I explained.

Ania and I arrived at Angela's apartment at seven pm, she let us in, and I immediately saw that she was very nervous. She made us coffee, but her hands were shaking so Ania took over and I led her into the lounge and sat her down and held her hands.

"I know that you're nervous Angie but there is less reason for that than when you met me, I was a stranger, but he is a work colleague and already a friend" I said gently.

"I know, I know Jamie, but I cannot help it and it's not just my hands that are shaking..." she complained.

"I know, I've been watching them shake" I replied with a wicked grin.

"JAMIE!" she cried, then burst out laughing, "You are incorrigible, and I don't mean a wavy metal roof."

"Huh?"

"That what I say when she say that word to me" Ania stated as she brought the drinks in.

"Oh, you mean corrugated, hahaha, very funny" but I had noticed that the nervousness in Angela had lessened considerably.

We slowly finished our drinks and talked generally, then the doorbell rang, and she was instantly in panic mode again. I stood up and pulled her to her feet and whispered in her ear for a few seconds.

"Ohh... really, ooo, I'll have to think about that..." she mused with a smile.

"Now go let him in or you'll have nothing to think about!" I snapped and she ran to the door with a laugh, she was still smiling as she opened the door.

"Hello Jack... are those for me... thank you, they are lovely, come in and meet the others" Ania and I heard and grinned at each other, 'So far so good' I thought.

They walked into the lounge, Angela holding a nice sized bunch of mixed flowers and smiling.

"Jack, this is Jamie... Jamie, this is Jack, I'll just go and put these in a vase."

We shook hands, his grip was dry and firm but not hard and his smile was easy, but the eyes showed that he was nervous. He was dressed nicely with the trousers loose enough not to show the size of the contents that Ania had informed me were at least as big as mine, not that it bothered me that I had a size rival.

Of course, Ania had told him quite a lot about me during the week, and me about him so it felt like we had known each other for some time. Angela returned looking less nervous but ready to go, we let them sit in the back of the Volvo as he drove a Mazda MX5 convertible, noticing the gap between them but we kept up the conversation.

As we ate at the restaurant, both gradually relaxed over the food and a nice bottle of white wine that we shared (only one small glass for me, of course). One big topic of conversation was food, (very neutral) our likes and dislikes, things we'd like to try etc.

The girls went to the Ladies Room, so I took the opportunity to ask how he was feeling.

"Ania explained that you are some kind of amateur psychologist and sex therapist, and have often helped people, I don't mind that as I really like Ania, she's lovely and occasionally crazy" he said laughing.

"That describes her perfectly."

"I am still a bit nervous but a lot less than earlier. Angela is also very nervous, so I don't want to say or do the wrong thing and ruin it."

"That's okay and if you don't mind if Ania or I guide you two a little tonight, hopefully we will all have a good time. The main thing is, if there is a choice to be made let her choose, for instance if a slow dance comes on when you are on the dancefloor" I explained,

"If all goes well then on the way back to her apartment, see if she will hold your hand BUT a goodnight hug and any sort of kiss must be up to her."

"I understand Jamie" he replied with a wistful smile and I laughed inside because Ania was telling Angela almost exactly the same thing.

The club was only just opening when we arrived so we had a choice of tables and chose our usual one near the back and away from the dance area, where it would be slightly quieter. Jack bought the first round of drinks which we sipped slowly as the club filled up.

Most patrons were young people celebrating the end of another working week, or college and university students, enjoying the last few days of the summer break. Twenty minutes later there were enough people on the dancefloor for Ania to get up with me and dance.

The other two sat where they were and talked but we were watching them, after two songs we returned to the table for a few minutes, then got up again and looked at them. It was funny, watching them look at us, then at each other twice before smiling weakly and standing up to join us.

After three songs there was a slow one and he spoke to her and she almost fled back to our table. We followed and Ania sat down but I asked Jack to help me with the drinks.

"Why did you ask me to help Jamie?" he asked curiously.

"Because Ania is just about ripping Angela a new one."

"Huh... why is that?"

"Because when the slow song came on, she almost ran back to the table, which was very rude" I explained.

"Ohh."

"You are behaving like a gentleman; that will help of course, just carry on doing that."

Meanwhile back at the table...

"Why you do that to him Angela?!" Ania snapped angrily.

"Do what Ani?" she replied, shocked at her friends' question and tone.

"Slow song start, you run back to table, that very rude!"

"I... I just couldn't..." she moaned.

"Did he ask if you stay?"

"Sort of... he started to, but I just wanted to go, I guess it was rude, I will apologise when they come back."

"Good start, you need make better try, you say he nice guy, you like him, he like you, he not hurt you, he not have girlfriend for long time, need nice girl. You nice girl, if he think he scare you it might ruin him for anyone else" Ania said firmly.

"You are right, we are both damaged goods, so maybe we can help each other."

"Much better, next time you dance with Jamie, you stay for slow dance, I dance with Jack. Time after that we change back and you be good girl, maybe you hold hands with him on way home, yes Angie?"

"Okay Ani, I'll be a good girl for you..."

"NO not me! You be good girl for you and Jack; that will be good for me" Ania finished firmly as we arrived back with the drinks.

"I'm sorry for running out on you Jack but the thought of... it was rude and you didn't deserve it, I will try harder next time, I promise" she said and smiled at him across the table.

"That's okay Angela, I know it must be hard for you so take as long as you want. It has been so long since I have done this, I'm loving every minute of it."

'Perfect response' I thought and smiled at the grinning Ania.

A few minutes later I stood up and offered my hand to Angela, she took a breath and smiled as she took my hand and walked with me to the dancefloor. The other two were right behind and almost ignored us as they danced, Angela was far more relaxed with me as Jack was with Ania but that was to be expected.

The next song was a slow one and I opened my arms and she barely hesitated before stepping into them. She was tense so I slapped her ass and she looked at me and then laughed.

"A few weeks ago, I could never envision myself dancing with a man and if he had slapped my ass I would have gone screaming to the police and then hidden in my flat for weeks. Now I am actually enjoying it and that even includes the slap on my ass... and that big lump that's pressing against my pussy, hahaha" she laughed.

"What will you do when you dance with him again later, especially for a slow one?" I asked seriously.

"I will treat him like the gentleman that he has been all night and enjoy it... I hope."

"And what if he has a big bump?"

"I think I will try and keep away from it without being rude, maybe I'll pretend I'm dancing with you."

"I think that would be an insult Angela, he likes you and really wants you to like him too, he is in no rush to develop a relationship and is willing to go at your pace, so there will be no pressure to do anything you're not happy with" I explained quietly and continued,

"Whether it's shaking hands, a hug of greeting or goodbye and a kiss on the cheek or just holding hands, it is all up to you to choose what you want to do, okay?"

"I understand, I did it with you and look what we have been doing since, but I felt safer with Ani there too."

"How about if you arrange a date with him and Ani for say, Wednesday night but take Ani home from work for maybe a home cooked meal for the three of you. She could stay with you for the night and you take her to work the next morning. That way you spend more time with him and have a chaperone" I offered.

"That sounds like a good idea Jamie... hmm, yes I like that."

"You decide everything and Ani will not try to push you into doing anything with him that you feel you're not ready for, Angela, BUT you have to ask him, not ask Ani to do it for you okay?"

"That sounds fair and I get your sexy little fiancé all to myself for the night too."

"Just don't kick him out early so that you can ravish her sooner" I added only partly joking.

"Deal!" she agreed and sealed it with a quick kiss.

The music stopped and we returned to our table, the other two followed shortly and looked at us.

"Excuse us gentlemen" Angela said and pulled Ani towards the ladies' toilets.

"Is there a problem Jamie?" Jack asked, looking worried.

"Probably not... we'll see when they get back, but I would say that it's looking better for you."

"Ohh, anyway I'm having great fun, I just hope Angela is too."

The girls returned, Ania smiling happily so I knew that she had agreed with my plan. We got up to dance again, Ania and I, Angela with Jack and this time when it came to a slow song, she didn't run but maintained a gap between them until I manoeuvred us close to them and bumped them together.

Angela gave out a little squeak of shock but when she saw it was us, she laughed, but kept in contact with Jack who smiled his thanks to me. After that song finished and another one started, Ania and I went back to our table and watched the two of them as they shuffled around, talking.

After one more song they came back, Angela smiling and Jack walking very close behind her, which I thought was odd until I spotted the large bulge in his trousers and laughed inwardly. He was obviously embarrassed about it and hoping it would go down quickly and not be noticed by anyone.

Unfortunately for him, Angela was a beautiful woman with a cracking figure and drew the eyes of more than a few men and some women as she walked between the tables back to her seat. Some of these people also spotted his predicament and either stared, laughed, or pointed, quite likely some were jealous of him or her too.

"If it's all right with you Jamie, I've invited Ania to come to dinner with Jack and I on Wednesday evening. I will be trying a new Indian recipe on them but not you because you don't like Indian food. I will take her home from work and take her back on Thursday so you can pick her up after work" she explained as if it was her idea.

"That's fine with me, I'll have a peaceful night without the pixie" and to that comment, Ania poked her tongue out at me but gave my cock a squeeze under the table.

Angela and Jack did not sit too close together, but I was sure that they were holding hands under the table. Another round of drinks and a few dances later, we decided to leave or rather Angela decided to leave. In the car, I adjusted the mirror to be able to see what went on in the back and was pleased to see them holding hands.

Back at Angela's flat we settled down to proper alcoholic drinks, except for Jack who had to drive home at some point. He stood up to go at one am, Ania reached up and kissed him on the cheek, I shook his hand and said 'goodbye'.

He walked to the front door with Angela following and as soon as they were out in the hallway, Ania raced to the door and watched through the gap between door and frame where the door wasn't closed. A minute later she ran back to me and sat on my lap and made a moue (kiss) face, as Angela came in looking flushed.

"You have good night, yes?" Ania asked, innocently.

"Uhh... yes I had a good night, Jack is as nice out of work as he is at work..." she replied with a smile.

"He dance very good?" her friend continued.

"Yes, he does but why ask, you danced with him too?" Angela asked, puzzled.

"But I not give him big lump in trousers" and laughed at her embarrassment.

"Ohh... I... ahh... you noticed, I didn't mean to do that and embarrass him."

"There were quite a few people who noticed" I said.

"Ohh shit!"

"Think of it this way Angie, the girls were jealous of you for having such a bulge to yourself and the guys were jealous of him for having such a big bulge and such a gorgeous woman as his girlfriend" I explained.

"Ohh... really but he's not really my boyfriend, only a...?"

"Yes really!" I interrupted firmly, feel a little exasperated, 'Was she really that naïve?' I thought.

"You invite him to dinner and go clubbing, you dance with him and even the slow ones that give him a hard-on and then you invite him to your flat for dinner. I bet that you actually kissed him 'goodbye' and felt that bulge again, didn't you? I think that it's pretty clear that you do consider him as your boyfriend, no matter how casual you think it is Angela!" And she put her hands over her face for a few moments.

"I... Uhh... suppose I do, so what do I do now?"

"Whatever you want to do, the choice is yours, you could take your time and have a few more innocent dates with him and he would be happy with that or you could jump in at the deep end and take him to bed with or without Ani after dinner on Wednesday night" I said, deliberately trying to shock her and it worked.

"WHAT!!" she exclaimed. "I couldn't... I... Ooo, you said that deliberately Jamie, just to shock me."

"Yes I did, and it did surprise and shock you, and now it's made you think about it instead of avoiding the subject altogether. Doesn't it appeal to you? How long have you known Jack?"

"A year, since I moved here and started working, I think he has been there for about five years, why?"

"And in that time, you have decided that he is nice and a gentleman, how long have you thought that you might like to go out with him?"

"Maybe six months but I just didn't have the nerve to ask him and now I know that he felt the same way" Angela sighed at the possible loss of time together.

"And finally, how long have you thought you would like to make love with him but were too scared to do anything about it because of the panic?" I asked firmly.

"Oh fuck!" she cried, putting her hands over her face and bowing her head and started sobbing.

Ania started to move towards her but I shook my head, so she went to the bathroom instead. After a minute she dropped her hands and looked up at me, waiting expectantly for her reply. She took a deep breath and wiped her cheeks before replying.

"About four months and before you say it, yes I realise that I have wasted three of those months before I met you and Ani and I admit that I occasionally lay in bed masturbating to the fantasy of what I would like him to do to me in bed..." Angela sighed, "But that was all it was, just a fantasy until you and Ani put me on the path to recovery."

"So, when are you going to ask him?"

"Monday but did you mean it... about Ani being there on the settee like you did or joining in like the second week?"
