The Next One Ch. 06

Her face paled and she said, "I don't know what you are talking about."

What I said next I made up on the spot, but she wouldn't know it.

"Get off of it Sarah. Did you honestly think you could do gangbangs at a frat house where guys I knew were members? Harry Goddard told me about it and when I called him a liar he showed me the pictures of you that he took with his cell phone. One of them was a nice clear shot of you with a cock in your left hand while my engagement ring sparkled in the light. I figured that if that was how faithful you were to me I could take your mother up on the pass she made at me."

She looked down at the floor and using the information Vangie had given me I went on.

"I found out about Larry by accident. A guy in one of my classes needed a ride home and I got him to his place on Lewis Court just in time to see you and Melrose pull up, kiss and get out get out of your car. I watched you walk hand in hand into his place. Gary, the guy I gave the ride to, told me that he had seen you there a lot and that sometimes there was another guy there also. I was curious since I'd already found out about your frat house trains so I stuck around and waited for you to come out. I waited three hours and when you came out you had that "well fucked look" that I remembered from the times you were with me. So yes Sarah, of course I blamed you for being pissed at me. Anything else?"

She looked up from the floor at me and asked, "Dance with me?"

I gave her a long look and then offered her my arm. As we danced she said, "I admit it. There was a period where I was a bit of a slut, but even though I wasn't true to you I did love you. I guess I was sowing my wild oats before I got married and had to settle down. I would have you know. Settled down I mean. I probably wouldn't have gotten pissed at you if it had been anyone but my mother. Anyone else and I would have chalked it up to you doing some wild oat sowing of your own.

"But my mother? I just lost it and I stayed pissed for a while and then I woke up to the fact that I'd let the man I really wanted get away. By the time I woke up to that you were already with someone else. I kept waiting for you to break up with her so I could try to get you back, but you never did. I've never gotten you out of my system Frank. I hear through the grapevine that you are getting divorced. Any truth to that?"

"I'm afraid so."

"Maybe we could try again?"

"You, me, Larry and the frat boys?"

"Larry's been history for years" she lied, "and I haven't been to a fraternity house since I broke up with you."

Another lie, but I hadn't expected any less. The frat house parties were a thing of the past, but they did go on for quite a while after she broke up with me and according to Vangie Sarah had been with Larry and John the previous Wednesday. I knew if I hooked back up with Sarah that she would come with Russ, John and Larry, but I could live with that because I would be bringing along Vangie.

On the plus side Sara was almost as good as her mother and I had cared for her enough at one time that I had put a ring on her finger. She would be coming into any relationship we entered into as a cheating slut and with the intention of staying one, but at least I'd know it going in and not have it come as a surprise like it had with Gloria and Allison. And I always would have to keep in mind that I was no better.

The music had stopped when she'd said, "Maybe we could try again" and she had turned to go back to her table, but I held her arm until the next number started and as we moved into the next song I said:

"Are you really serious about trying again?"

"I am and if you get me out of here right now I'll prove it."

"I can't leave my group until the party is over, but if you still mean it by then I'll give you the chance."

"I mean it and as of right now I am your date for the evening so I'll join you at your table." She paused "Unless you don't want me there."

"Why wouldn't I want one of the two best looking women here tonight at my table?"

"Best two?"

"Can't forget your mom Sarah; I don't think either of us wants to forget your mom."

She gave me a look, but she understood what I'd just said. As far as she knew it was her cheating that put her mother into my bed once before and if she wasn't careful???

We walked back to her table and she got her purse and she told her parents that I would see to it that she got home. Russ and Vangie smiled, but each for far different reasons I'm sure.

Sarah joined me at my table and I introduced her to those who didn't already know her. She danced with one or two of the guys, but mostly with me and when the party broke up we left together. Once in my truck Sarah said:

"You aren't going to take me home I hope."

"Are you sure you know what you are doing?"

She slid over next to me and her hands went to my belt and zipper as she said:

"I'll show you that I know what I'm doing."

There was no way she was going to get me off quickly; not after the night I'd had with her mother only twenty-four hours before, but she gave it a good try. When I pulled in at the Super 8 motel she said:

"We aren't going to your place?"

"Not this time. I'm still a little gun shy after the last time and I'm not ready for you to know where I live until I know where this is going."

She gave me a dirty look, but when I came back with a room key she followed me into the room. She was so much like her mother that it was scary. She damned near destroyed me. When I walked her to her front door three hours later she asked:

"Will I see you tomorrow?"

"Around four?"

"It's a date."

Saturday was dinner, dancing and a bed at the motel. Sunday was an afternoon movie, dinner and a motel. Sunday night when I took Sarah home I tested Vangie's theory and found that she was right gain.

"What time should I pick you up tomorrow?"

"Oh I'm sorry baby, but I'm going to have to work late tomorrow."

"I've got something going Tuesday so how about Wednesday?"

"My bridge night with the girls from my sorority at school."

"Maybe I can get out of what I was going to do Tuesday and if I can should I give you a call?"

"Please. I'll cross my fingers."

+++++++++++++++++

Monday night I told Vangie that I was going to have to get an apartment after all.

"I can't let Sarah know about this place and renting motel rooms for six months will cost me a ton."

"You have the money out of your house so find a condo."

"I don't dare. I don't trust Allison. I get a condo before the divorce is final and she could try to claim it as community property."

"You would be buying it after separating from her."

"But with money from the sale of our house which she could also claim as a joint asset. Besides, I'm not supposed to have that money. I've set it up so it looks like I gambled it all away."

"Okay then. I'll buy the condo and you can buy it from me after the divorce is final. That way it will look like you are just renting the place."

I looked at her stunned.

"Don't look at me like that. I told you I have oodles and oodles of money and I can use it however I want. Besides, I'll only be putting up the down payment and you will be paying me back when you buy it from me after your divorce is final. Now come on. You have time to do mommy once more before she has to go home."

Tuesday I called Sarah and told her that I couldn't get out of what I'd told her I had to do. Let her sit on pins and needles wondering if I would call her Thursday or Friday.

Wednesday Vangie told me not to make any plans for during the day on Saturday because "We are going condo shopping."

I didn't call Sarah and ask her out for Thursday because I knew it would be awkward for her to have to say no to me for the third time in a week, but I did set something up with her for Friday.

Saturday Vangie showed up at seven in the morning and caught me in my bathroom. "Oh goodie" she said, "I was afraid we would have to waste time undressing you." She took my hand and led me toward the bedroom as she was saying:

"Mommy wants her butt fucked lover. Do a good job and I'll have a surprise for you."

The "Oh yes, oh God yes, fuck my ass baby, fuck mommy's ass" that rang through the room seemed to indicate, at least to me, that I was doing a good job. After a quick shower – not together or we would have never gotten out of the apartment – I fixed us some breakfast and after we ate we set out to look at condos.

Vangie had apparently done some 'pre-shopping' as she had a list of four places that she wanted us to look at. We took her Porsche, but our first stop wasn't a condo, but a Chevy dealer.

"What are we here for?"

"I told you if you did a good job on my butt I'd have a surprise for you. Wait here" she said as she got out of the car. Five minutes later she came back and drove us over to the other side of the lot and stopped.

"Come on" she said as she got out of the car. She came around to my side and took me by the hand and walked me over to a new black Chevy Silverado extended cab four wheel drive pick up. She handed me a set of keys and said:

"Merry Christmas lover."

"You have got to be shitting me!"

"Not at all. I can't stand my lover driving around in a ratty old truck. Besides, I want my daughter to be able to ride around in comfort."

"This is way too much Vangie."

"No it isn't lover. When I kick the bucket you and Sarah are going to inherit so why not enjoy some of the money now. Take the keys, drive over to the office and sign your name where the man tells you and then we can go looking for a condo."

We looked at the four units on Vangie's list and both of us liked the third one we'd looked at the best. Vangie spent a half hour with the agent and when all was said and done Vangie had agreed to buy the four bedroom condo. Why four bedrooms? I wanted one to use as a den and home office and I though Sarah also might like to have a room of her own and then there would be one for company. As we drove back to the Chevy dealer to pick up Vangie's car she told me she would get the keys on Wednesday and I could move in any time after that.

At the time I wondered about the quick occupancy, but I later found out that Vangie didn't put down a down payment. She wrote out a check for the full price that she had dickered the agent down to. It would be weeks before the paperwork would all be finished, but it was a done deal and as long as Vangie's check cleared the bank she could have the keys.

At the Chevy dealer's lot she gave me a hot kiss, told me that she wished she didn't have to go home and then got in her car and drove off. I drove home, changed and then got into my shiny new Chevy to go and pick up Sarah for our date.

When I picked up Sarah she commented on the truck and I told her that since we were beginning anew I felt she deserved to ride in a new vehicle.

"Oh how sweet Frankie. I think I'll keep you."

It wasn't all that hard of a night on me. Sarah had just started her 'monthly' and I had to settle for a couple of blow jobs in my brand new truck. They were great, but I couldn't help but think that Vangie should have been the first one to have sex with me in the truck she had bought for me.

+++++++++++++++++++++

Monday night after wearing me out Vangie asked me if I could take a vacation day or a sick day on Wednesday and I told her I had plenty of vacation time coming so it shouldn't be a problem. Wednesday at nine Vangie showed up and found me naked and waiting for her. She laughed and said:

"Down boy. Later. Right now we have important things to do."

Now that got my attention. It was the first time ever that Vangie had shown up and not wanted to go straight to sex. I dressed and we drove over to the condo. She handed me the key and I opened the door and then stopped dead. When we had looked at the place on Saturday the place had been empty. Now it was furnished.

"Come on" Vangie said as she closed the door behind her. "We need to break in the bed."

The new king sized bed held up under the workout that took place on it and when it was over Vangie said:

"I have to be home by four so we have until then to get started on me marking the territory. We have to make love in every room in the place and on every piece of furniture that will hold us up and on all the floors. At four I have to run home and fix dinner for Russ, but I'll be back around six and we will work on it some more and then there will also be tomorrow night. Anything we don't get to by the time I leave tomorrow we will get to next week. Sarah doesn't get to walk in that door until I have claimed the place because once she starts visiting I won't be able to come back except as an invited guest. I'll keep the apartment as our love nest."

"Why? Why have you done all of this?"

"Truth time?"

"Truth time."

"I've done it because you love me."

I started to say something, but she held up a hand to stop me.

"I came to you to do to you what I did to all of Sarah's other boyfriends, but you turned out to be different. To the rest of them all I was was another piece of ass; a damned good piece of ass, but a piece of ass just the same. I am more than that to you and it shines through and I am more than just a little fond of you, but I love my husband so what you want can never be. I can't return the love you show me, but I glory in your love and I need to show you how much it means to me so I am giving you things. Not things to buy you with, but things that you will always associate with me. Things I have shared with you. Whenever you go somewhere in your truck you will remember that I was the first one to sit in it with you and the first one to kiss you at a stop light.

"Whether you are on this bed alone or with someone you will remember sharing it with me. The same goes for every piece of furniture and room in this condo. You will have shared them with me. I know it doesn't come anywhere close to the love you show me, but it is at least something I can give to you. Probably doesn't make much sense to you but it does to me. I'm giving you as much of me as I can. So. Let's do the living room couch next and then maybe the dinning room table."

We managed the couch, the dinning room table and the shower before she had to leave and when she came back at six-fifteen we christened the washer and dryer and the bed in one of the spare bedrooms. As she dressed to leave she said:

"At this rate it is going to take us two weeks to get to everything. That gives you two weeks to give this place a lived in look before you bring Sarah here."

Actually it took three. By the time I brought Sarah to it for the first time I had it looking like I'd lived there for six months. Within a month of her first visit Sarah was living there part time. She usually had to work late a couple of times a week – usually Monday and Thursday and Wednesday night was her card night with her sorority sisters. I of course knew where she really was on those nights and on those nights she usually went home to stay with her parents. I was betting that she did that so I wouldn't be able to tell that I wasn't the first that night if she came to my place and I wanted to make love.

Me being me I did try to throw her off her stride one Friday night. I asked her why she always had to work late on Monday and Thursday. How come she never had to work late on any of the other nights of the week. She told me that Monday was a zoo because of everything that had gone on from noon Friday until the end of business Sunday had to be dealt with. Thursday was because payroll had to be done so checks could be issued on Friday and they also had to get everything set up and out to the stores that would be needed for the weekend. I wondered if she came up with that on her own or if it was Russ's brainchild.

Vangie still taped things and randomly put a private detective on Sarah so I knew that John and Larry were still tapping Sarah and I began to use the detective's information to build a file against the day I might need it. Vangie and I also had long talks about what to do if Sarah ever found out that Vangie and I were still lovers. I would come unglued on her for lying to me about dropping Larry and if push came to shove I might even throw John under the bus, but under no circumstances could I let it be known that I knew about Russ.

To cover myself on how I knew what I knew about John and Larry I would tell her that I was suspicious of her late nights and I had put an investigator on her and then use the details from the reports that Vangie got from her investigator. I'd need to be careful and only use reports that covered Larry and, if necessary, John. I couldn't use any report that included Russ. Fortunately there were times that Sarah only saw John or Larry and a couple of times she saw John and Larry together. My defense would be, "You are fucking others and so I decided that I could too and we both know I have a history with your mom."

Russ would never come into it unless the worst case scenario took place. That would be Sarah telling Russ that Vangie and I were lovers. If that happened things would get very, very nasty and messy.

+++++++++++++++++++++

The months went by and Allison kept her word and didn't fight the divorce. I still caught a ration of shit about how I was overreacting and not being fair every time I went over to see my folks and once Mrs. Ames caught me alone and begged me, actually begged me, to give Allison another chance. I almost – only almost – felt like an asshole when I told her it just wouldn't be happening.

Fortunately for my health Sarah didn't want to make love every night she spent at my place. No way in hell I could handle three night a week with Vangie and four nights a week with Sarah. Sarah never said no if I wanted to make love and she was the aggressor more often than not. She was getting her fill on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday the same as I was. In truth I didn't do Vangie three nights a week either. There were nights when she couldn't come by and she was still young enough to get visits from her 'Aunt Flo' and of course the same could be said of Sarah.

Suddenly June was upon us and it was fish or cut bait time. The divorce would be final on June 14th and Vangie casually mentioned once or twice that it looked like Sarah and I could squeeze in a June wedding. Then one Wednesday night she cut to the chase.

"Are you going to marry Sarah?"

"I don't know babe. Everything is going so smoothly now and I'm asking myself why do something that might change it."

"Why would you think that things might change? As long as Sarah keeps on doing what she is doing she won't be interfering with us. Besides, as long as my tape system keeps on working we will always know what is being planned. They will keep thinking that Russ and John are keeping track of you at work; that John watches you when Russ slips off to meet with Sarah and Russ keeps an eye on you when it is John's turn. Both of them watching you if she is with Larry.

"And there is something else. You like being married. It showed through when we were getting together even though you were married to Allison. You loved being married until things went to hell on you. You need a wife to be complete and deep down inside you know it. There are other girls out there and I am certain that you can find one, but you won't find one that is as good a fit for you as Sarah."

"Why would you say that?"

"Because you want me. We both know it, but we also both know that it can never happen. Sarah is almost a carbon copy of me. Granted, she is a cock hungry slut, but so what? I am too. She needs more than you can give her and that is no slam on you. You know damned well that she gives you more than you can handle so what if she has to pick up a little extra to hold her. It is the same with me. Russ never says no to me, but even though I love the man I still need a little extra to keep me satisfied. Then there is the fact that you know what she is and it hasn't bothered you a bit."
