Starting Over Pt. 06 Ch. 05

John was starting to tear up, too. "Be safe and come see me sometime. That'll be enough."

Yvonne grabbed John in a tight hug and the two of them held it for a while. Yvonne was definitely crying now. She pulled apart from the hug, kissed John, and rushed to the van. She hopped in and drove off.

John stood there watching the van disappear. He was wondering where things were going now. He was 55 years old. He had moved to Seattle to try to restore his life. He had met many women here and fallen in love with two, although he thought Yvonne was right. She wasn't the domestic sort and wouldn't be good in a permanent relationship. At least not yet.

John returned to his apartment and looked around. He was alone again.

---------------------------- Wednesday, September 1, 2021, John's apartment, Seattle, WA -----------

It was 5pm, two weeks after Yvonne had left, and John was just getting ready to head across the street to his local bar when he got a phone call. He didn't recognize the number, but he decided to answer it.

"Hello?"

"Hey, John. It's Jasmine."

John hadn't heard her name in a while. "Hey. How's it going?"

"Better. We took a big hit during the initial part of the pandemic, but things are improving again. How are you?"

"Not bad." John lied. He hated being alone again. He had been calling his daughter every day just to talk to someone he cared about.

"Great. Can you come by tonight?"

"Sure. What's this about?"

"It's a minor issue, but it requires someone with your skills. About 9pm?"

"You know that's past my bedtime now."

Jasmine laughed. "Yeah, yeah. I'm getting old, too, you know. Anyway, see you at 9?"

"Sure. See you then."

John wondered what this was about. He hadn't heard from Jasmine in a while and the pandemic had certainly put a damper on things like strip clubs where physical contact was the basis of most of the business.

John stayed in his apartment and watched a little TV until 8:30. Then he drove down to Jasmine's club. He hoped she was doing well and not almost bankrupt by the pandemic.

When John got there, he spoke to the bouncer at the entrance who called Jasmine. She came bounding out, full of energy and looking great. She was wearing yoga pants and a t-shirt, but looked fantastic.

"Hey, John!" She came up and gave him a quick hug.

"Hey, back. You haven't changed a bit!"

Jasmine grinned. "You sly dog. You always knew how to make a woman feel good."

John just shrugged and Jasmine led John back to her office. She waved him to the couch near her desk and the leaned against the front of the desk. "It's so good so see you. I hope things are going well with you."

"Well, since the pandemic there were a couple of situations that came up that were a little difficult, but that's the job of an investigator."

"Yes, I heard about a couple of them." She crossed her arms. "I guarantee that this job is not near as dangerous."

About that time, the door to the office opened and Livy came in. "John!"

John stood up and Livy came and gave him a big hug. She was wearing the quintessential slutty schoolgirl's outfit.

When they finished hugging, John held her at arm's length and looked her up and down. "Damn, Livy, still looking delicious and like a walking felony."

Livy grinned and shook her tits at John. "That's the point in here, right?"

"Yes, it is."

"Sit back down so we can talk." Livy pushed on John's chest so he sat.

Jasmine grinned at him. "I have something I need to see to right now." She left the office and closed the door.

Once she left, Livy crawled up on John's lap, straddling him.

"Well, hello." John looked up at her.

Livy had her cell phone in her hand and put a finger to John's lips. She fussed with her phone, which confused John, until she played a voice mail.

It was Yvonne's voice. "Livy, it's been a week since I left and I'm horny as fuck. I have my battery-operated boyfriend out, but can you take care of John? I know he's horny after all the sex we had, so just fuck the shit out of him, okay?"

John looked up at Livy. "Is this a request you can't refuse?"

"I would never refuse to help out a friend."

At that, Livy leaned over and kissed John -- hard. John couldn't remember if they had kissed before. Many times, these ladies would fuck him, but the kissing was a little rare. There might be a couple, but this was something else. Livy was grinding on his lap, trying to get his dick hard as she fenced with his tongueg. He was definitely getting hard.

Livy then stood up and pulled open the little white shirt she wore for the top of the outfit. She shook her tits at him and then sat back down. "Play with my tits, John. Get me hot so I can fuck you like Yvonne asked."

John did. He took them in his hands and went back and forth, sucking on one and lightly pulling on the other one. Livy just held his head and lightly moaned. She gave him about 2 minutes and then stood up.

"Now, my pussy." Livy turned away from him as the short, barely there, skirt dropped. She then put her hands on either side of the tiny thong she was wearing and, looking over her shoulder, started dragging them down.

John knew what she wanted. He watched as her ass and then her pussy appeared in front of him. It was a very, very welcome sight. Thank you, Yvonne, he thought as he put his hands on her ass. She trembled when she felt his hands. She stayed bent over, putting her hands on her knees and spreading her legs more.

John leaned forward and kissed her right cheek and then her left. She wiggled her ass at that.

"Get to the point, John."

John grinned and leaned more forward. He put his tongue on her pussy and dragged it up through the slit to her asshole. He licked her asshole a couple of times and went back down to her pussy. He licked through it a few times and could tell that she was getting wet. She suddenly stood up.

"You were always good at that, John. Now stand up and drop those pants."

John stood up and unbuckled his belt and then opened his dockers. He pushed them and his boxers down to his ankles, his hard cock standing straight out.

Livy was looking down and grinned, grabbing his cock. "Sit back down and slouch down a little."

John did so and Livy was immediately on top of him. She kissed him again, rubbing her tits against his shirt, and slid her pussy up and down his cock. She had it trapped against his stomach as she rubbed against it, but had had enough foreplay, so she rose up, centered his cock on her pussy, and dropped down onto it.

"Ohhhhh, yes." Livy moaned as she sat all the way down. "I love fucking you, John."

John grinned up at her. "And I'm the only one?"

Livy shrugged. "There are a few men I like to fuck, but you are one of my favorites. Now, let me get off on this nice cock."

Livy started moving up and down and then back and forth as she worked towards an orgasm. The movement wasn't enough to get John off very quickly, so he let her enjoy herself and watched. He played with her tits and let her work.

"Pinch my nipples!" she suddenly said.

John knew that she liked her nipples to be lightly pinched and pulled when she was trying to get off, so he started doing that. She started panting loudly and moving like she was close. She was sitting all the way down and grinding her clit on him. He helped her and she started moving faster.

Livy was ready to pop now, and with John pinching and pulling her nipples, she came hard. She jerked on top of him, letting out little gasping sounds each time a wave of her orgasm hit her. She was in her own world just then, eyes closed, head thrown back, getting herself off.

Livy finally stopped moving. "Whew! I needed that. It's been two weeks for me, and I can get pretty worked up working here with all the men and naked women around."

"I'm glad I could help. Really glad. I like watching you cum."

Livy slowly pulled off his cock and grinned. "Now it's your turn." She stood over him and looked at his hard cock. "I'm going to suck that hard, pussy soaked cock until you cum. I'm going to kneel here and you are going to take a video of me making that cock cum so that I can show Yvonne."

John was a little surprised by that. "Uh, okay. I guess that's alright."

"Don't worry. She requested it and I like her. She will get off on it."

"Okay."

John sat there as Livy got on her knees. She handed him her phone. "Don't start taking it until you are close. I don't want a full movie."

"I don't think it will take much longer." He grinned at her.

Livy rolled her eyes. "Never does."

Livy dove immediately down onto his cock and took a big suck. She looked up at him. "Nothing better than a pussy-soaked cock."

"Shut up." John grinned and pushed on the back of her head. Livy chuckled and went back to work to get John off.

Livy sucked and licked and John knew it was coming. He looked at her phone and pressed on the video start button. He held it and looked at the screen as he got close to cumming.

Livy could also tell that he was close. She could feel everything tighten up as he got ready to spew. She started taking short strokes on the last two inches, using her tongue on the bottom of the head. She knew how to suck cock and was going to get his load.

"Here it comes." John announced to Livy.

Livy was ready. She looked up directly at the camera phone as she took her last few sucks and felt him start to cum. She pulled back and let the phone capture it as John's cock spurted four, five good spurts into her mouth. She wanted it all on camera. Finally, she closed her mouth, made it obvious that she was swallowing, and continued to suck him dry.

When John finished, he shut off the video and lowered his hand. "Wow! You really are very good, Livy."

"Thank you. Now let me see that video."

John handed her the camera and she sat down next to him, seemingly obliviously to their nudity. She played the video for the two of them. She then turned to John. "Nice load. Yvonne will love this."

John smiled at Livy. "I'm sure she will." Then he thought about it for a while. "Do you think she's going to keep requesting this sort of thing?"

"I don't know, but I could come by now and then just to make more of these." She grinned and elbowed John.

"That's okay. Let's not make any plans."

Livy shrugged. "Suit yourself. Now, I have to get dressed, wash my mouth out, and get to work. There's a guy out there who pays $300 for a hand job in the private rooms."

"Gotta make money."

"Yes, I do." She turned to John. "But I'm always available as a fuck-buddy for you, John."

"Okay, thanks."

The two of them got dressed and when Livy left, Jasmine came back in.

"Everything work out fine?" She raised her eyebrows at him and grinned.

"Yes, it's all good."

"I'm sure it was. Well, stop by whenever you can spend more time here."

John chuckled and said goodbye and left.

---------------------------- Wednesday, September 15, 2021, John's apartment, Seattle, WA -----------

It was two weeks later when John found that Yvonne was still involved in his life. It was about 3pm and he was relaxing after a workout on his bike and a shower when the front door ring camera chimed. He looked at his phone as he approached it and could see that it was Maggie.

He opened the door. Maggie stood there and waited just a second for John to say something, but when he didn't for a couple of seconds, she spoke first.

"Hi, John. " She was a bit skittish. "Is Yvonne here?"

John looked a little stunned. "Yvonne? She's been gone for four weeks." He watched her face and could tell she was shocked. "Why don't you come inside."

Maggie came in and John led her into the sitting area in front of the TV. She sat on the left end of the couch and John waited. "Can I get you something to drink? Wine, water, or maybe a soft drink?"

Maggie considered it and then asked for just water.

John got her some water and a ginger ale for himself and sat down. "Now, what is this about Yvonne?"

"I thought she was still here. She and I started talking about two months ago and then she asked me to come over."

"You two started talking about two months ago? And how did that happen?" John also noticed that Maggie had gone all out on preparing for this visit. She was dressed in a very nice dress, sexy but not slutty. She had put on makeup to accentuate her blue eyes and there was just a hint of a very nice perfume.

"She called me and told me she was going to be leaving and getting back on the road, but didn't say when. She just kept talking to me about us." She hesitated there and stared hard at Jack. "Then she asked me to come over today. She called me this morning and I thought that meant that she was here."

"Well, she left four weeks ago. Now, what exactly did you two talk about?"

"She asked me everything about us and our relationship and how it failed. I told her."

"That's very interesting. And now she sends you here. Why would she do that?"

Maggie looked down at her hands and took a deep breath. "I told her the truth. I've been in therapy for the last 18 months going over my life with someone who is very good and she has led me to the truth of what I have done wrong in my life. I told Yvonne that I would have to tell you someday soon as part of my therapy, and I guess this is her giving me a kick in the ass."

John stared at her. He knew he still had feelings for her, but could this change all the pain and problems? Did she really know the reason? Or was she just being led down the primrose path by the therapist? "Okay, I'm waiting."

Maggie squirmed and took a drink of water. "Okay. I'll never be more ready than I am right now. Are you sure you want to hear this? Will it make a difference?"

"I don't know. Look, Maggie," John sat forward on the edge of the chair, "I do still have feelings for you, but I was confused and hurt by our split and the way you led your life after that. I guess it depends on what you believe the problem was."

Maggie took a deep breath. "It was me. I mean, there were some things in my past that led to me acting that way, but the bottom line is that it was me. When we got back together after New Year's and I had gotten over Maddie being kidnapped, I got very scared, very fast. I had just gotten out of a bad marriage not too long before and I just didn't deal with you very well. I should have discussed it with you and worked on it. I didn't communicate at all. I just shut down and pulled away.

"Then I decided I wanted to live alone, just me and Maddie, and gave you excuses, but there were none, really. I was just withdrawing from you. It was all bad after that. I made bad decisions with men, with my ex and Maddie, and with my entire personal life. Some of that you know.

"For the past 18 months my therapist has worked hard to make me recognize my inner demons when it comes to men, growing up a pretty, little rich girl, and being a single mom. It's been very hard. She made me say and come to grips with things that I had never seen any way other than my colored viewpoint."

When she stopped to regroup John stepped in. "We all base our decisions and actions based on our own life-informed viewpoint. That's just the way people are."

"Yes, but I was in love with you and couldn't communicate properly. That's not right. I see that now."

"And?"

"I'm still working on myself. I need to get better. The therapist wants me to see me, but communicating everything I've learned with you is part of my healing."

"Well, that's a good start."

"And the therapist, when I told her about your rescue of Maddie and how you treated me that first time we had sex, jokingly said 'Hell, what's his phone number. I'll take him.' I guess that woke me to how good a person you had been to me. It also reinforced how lucky I was to have had you for that short time, and that you might now always be available."

"So, what now Maggie? What's the next step for you with the therapist? And what do you expect from me?"

Maggie started wringing her hands. "I don't know." She stared at John. "I guess it's up to you. And I'm as nervous as a cat on a hot tin roof."

John grinned. "Jump off that roof, Maggie."

Maggie frowned.

"Sorry, but that's a quote from the play and movie 'Cat on a Hot Tin Roof'. Anyway, I still have deep feelings for you Maggie. Do you want to try again? Does part of your therapy include trying to rekindle our relationship?"

"The therapist didn't say, but she led me in that direction. What do you think, John? Is there a place for me in your life?"

John stood up and put out his hand. Maggie took it, staring up at him. He led her into the bedroom and in front of the same mirror that he had put her in front of years ago. He even used the same line. "What do you see?"

Maggie looked up and down the mirror. "I see a woman growing older with developing crow's feet, one who's tired from being the single mother of a teenager, one who is trying to get her life back on track and recover from all her mistakes. She's gained weight in the last year, and has a miserable sex life."

"Hmmm. A little different from the first time I had you do that, but still only the negative. What I see is a woman who is maybe a little tired, but is still a vibrant beauty. She has been working hard raising a daughter alone and not taking enough time for herself. She still has a great smile, great bones, and the most delicious ass in Seattle."

Maggie turned around. "How do you do that? How can you make me feel so good so easily?"

John leaned over and gave her a peck. "I told you. I still have feelings for you. And the fact that you have feelings for me, makes the complements more impactful." He turned and started heading back into the living room. "Anything else?"

He turned to see that Maggie hadn't moved. She reached up and started unbuttoning her dress. John just stared.

Maggie shrugged her shoulders as she continued to undo the buttons. "Look, no strings, but I'm really, really horny, you are the best man I know for sex, I do still have deep feelings for you, and I will leave right after. Just please, don't turn me away."

John nodded and walked up next to her. He interrupted her unbuttoning by taking her face in his hands and kissing her hard. He didn't know where this would all go, but he was going to give her the sex she needed for right now.

They finished undressing each other and John looked at her and shook his head. "That is not the body of a normal 44-year-old woman. You look no older than 28. You would turn heads everywhere."

Maggie blushed a little. "Shut up and get over here. I need a friends-with-benefits fuck."

John approached her and grinned. "Then you shall have it."

But they didn't fuck, they made love. It was sensual and enjoyable for both. They both ended up well sated.

As they lay there, John lay on his side as she lay on her back. He was lightly stroking her stomach, which was still pretty flat.

Maggie turned toward him. "Thank you for that. I really needed it. I'm sorry I took advantage of your good nature."

"You didn't take advantage of anyone. I loved every second. I think I would love to date you and see if we can rekindle our relationship."

Maggie grinned at him. "As long as you take care of my hornies now and again."

"That will not be a problem."

Maggie turned and pulled the sheet up over herself and closed her eyes. John figured that just coming here and telling him all that she had learned had exhausted her. He let her go to sleep and lay there, pondering where this was going. Maybe there was a happy ending for the two of them after all.
