Chapter Two
Richard/The Dick POV (during Starting Over - Chapter 1)
I can't believe Steph is making such a big deal about a little fling with the nanny. It's not like our sex life is all that great. I figured this would let her off the hook since she obviously doesn't even like sex. I watched those videos I secretly made, and it's obvious I was trying harder than her. She does have a bangin' body though, which is why I uploaded those videos in the first place. Men will spank it to a sexy woman, even if she's a dead fish.
Athena has been coming onto me ever since we hired her. She bent over whenever I was in her eyeline, making sure I can see down her blouse to her fantastic tits. All natural, can you believe it? I finally couldn't take it anymore and took her right there in the kitchen. Bent her over the counter and gave it to her good. Since then, we've only been together a handful of times, but every time was better than the last. I couldn't help myself. I'm a man, and I have needs.
I never wanted Steph to find out. I love her and she's the mother of my daughter. We've been together since college and no matter what happens, she's mine. I won't let some silly argument ruin that. She'll visit her sister and her sister's big galoot of a husband and get the anger out of her system, then come back and we'll move forward. I can give up the nanny. Athena was starting to get demanding, anyway.
I just hope Steph doesn't find out about Debra.
Debra POV (during Starting Over - Chapter 12)
I felt all morning like I was being followed but when I looked around, I didn't see anyone suspicious. The boys didn't seem to be alarmed and it's all I can do to keep up with the pair of them anyway, so eventually I shrugged it off and continued with my errands. I have a lot to do before Friday evening.
Rich is supposed to be home this weekend from his leadership retreat. I know he's been trying to get a partnership in his law firm, and he's explained repeatedly that since he must spend all these hours at work, it's just easier for him to have a little studio in the city to sleep in, but I miss my husband. Sometimes I feel like a single mom and though I love my boys more than anything, I need to be with Rich. It's been two weeks since we were last together and even that was only for the weekend. Thank God for my mama and my daddy. They help me feel less lonely, and they agreed to take the boys for sleepovers on both Friday and Saturday nights, so I can be alone with my husband. We can spend all day together Saturday and Sunday with the boys, before Daddy has to take the train back to work early on Monday morning.
Maybe one day next week I can surprise him at the apartment. He gave me the address and though I know he says it's small and spartan since he only sleeps there, it'll be enough for us. All we need is a bed anyway. We can order in for meals.
