Chapter 9
Aly calmed herself and said, "Okay, Action Jackson, Stand up for me and I'll rid you of those uncomfortable jeans." Randy stood up and said, "How do you now their uncomfortable?" She said, "Well, because if I was in pain or hurt, jeans would be uncomfortable to me." Randy said, "Oh, ok."
Aly nearly wet herself as she unbuttoned and unzipped his jeans…Randy look down and said, "Come here often miss?" Aly laughed and said, "Behave."
Randy laughed and said, "Shouldn't we get to know each other better before I let you get in my pants?"
Aly said, "Now a days, does it really matter?"
Randy said, "I am kind of old fashioned, I like to ask the girl out, not have her throw herself at me."
Aly giggled and said, "I'm not throwing myself at you." Randy said, "Oh, I know you're just trying to get in my pants." Aly said, "If I fit in your pants I'd kill myself." Randy said, "Don't do that, I'd never have the chance to do something to you then."
Aly looked up and said, "Do what?"
Randy cupped her face in his big hands and captured her lips with his…At first she didn't know what to do…she wasn't expecting him to kiss her…she finally relaxed and melted into him and kissed back. Her heart fluttered several thousand times…she didn't know what it meant, but as long as it didn't hurt she didn't care.
Randy felt her relax against him, he didn't want to be anywhere else, except right there, kissing her…she was the first woman he'd let in his life since Jill died, and the funny thing was, she was so much like Jill. She was sweet, beautiful, she had an amazing smile, and she had a great attitude. She could put up with Paul's antics, and just about anyone else.
Randy had gotten to know her…and didn't realize he could feel himself becoming attracted to her, until the night he broke down in front of her…she was so caring, and just let him cry…he'd not cried for his wife since the funeral…and the stress was just basically getting to him…and she cradled him, and helped him through it.
When they broke the kiss…Aly was looking at Randy doe eyed. She touched her lips that were swollen from Randy's ministrations to her…Randy looked down at her lips and said, "I didn't hurt you did I?" Aly shook her head no…and said, "You can handle the rest."
She walked out of the bathroom, through to her room and sat on her bed.
Randy took his shower and then got dressed, he had his exercise pants on, and walked into Alyssa's room, and she was sitting on the bed staring at the wall. Randy walked over and sat next to her…he touched her hand and she looked up at him. Randy said, "Say something."
Aly said, "Whoa." Randy chuckled and said, "Is that it?" Aly nodded and said, "For now." Randy said, "I didn't mean to scare you or anything…Are you alright?" Aly said, "I'm not sure…How long have you wanted to do that…exactly?" Randy said, "Well…for a while now…You wouldn't mind if I did it again, would you?"
Before Aly could stop herself she shook her head no. Randy leaned over and captured her lips again…This time she responded more and her arms slowly moved up and around his neck. Aly pulled away and said, "Are you sure this is something you're ready for?"
Randy said, "Yes and no…but I'm willing to try and find out…Slowly…as slowly as we can both stand…but so that were both comfortable." Aly said, "Okay…but you get to tell Paul." Randy got a mischievous look on his face and said, "Done."
Aly zipped around and said, "What?" Randy fell back laughing on the bed and said, "I told Paul I have liked you for a while…I was just trying to get up the nerve to do something about it."
They talked for a few more minutes, and Aly changed his bandage…and then tucked him into bed…then laid across her bed making sure to wake up every two hours to get Randy up. As she fell asleep, visions of Randy bounced around in her brain. She had a small smile playing on her lips. She was happy…she was content.
