The day after my fun-filled evening with Adrienne, I had just finished installing a new hot tub next to the Tiki hut, and was relaxing with a beer when Kate came into the yard.
"Hi. I just came to see how you were doing, over here all by yourself ," she said.
"Oh, I'm doing fine," I told her. "Thank you."
"Good. You're not getting too bored, being in this big house all by yourself?" she asked.
I chuckled, and told her, "No, not too badly."
"Well, I'm bored," she said. "My parents came by this morning to spend the weekend with my kids, and I'm alone for the first time in ages!"
"Oooh!" I teased her. "Are you planning on going wild for the next couple of days?"
Laughing, she responded, "Yeah, that's me, wild Katie! No, I'm bored! I was just over at Adrienne's, to see if she wanted to go out for dinner, and maybe a couple of drinks, but her daughter told me that she was napping. She said that her mother had a wild night, and was still sleeping it off."
"Really?" I responded. "Adrienne had a wild night? Good for her!"
"Yeah, but now I have no one to go out and try to get in trouble with!" Kate pouted.
"Well, I know that I'm not Adrienne," I told her, "but I would be honored to be your dinner companion tonight."
"Really?" she asked. "You would want to go out to dinner with me?"
"Why not?" I asked in return. "It beats both of us sitting alone, bored. Besides, there is a new Argentinian steak house that I've wanted to check out. You can be my fellow guinea pig."
"Ok," she answered. "Give me a couple of hours to get ready, and I'll come back here."
"A couple of hours?" I asked, teasing her.
"Hey, it's easy for you guys," Kate responded. "You just have to shower, and find clean clothes. We have to do our make-up, find the right outfit, then find shoes to go with the outfit ..."
"Ok, ok," I said, throwing my hands up in defeat, laughing. "Take as long as you need. I'll be here waiting ... patiently."
Kate laughed, and went to her house to prepare for a night on the town. As she reached the end of the driveway, she looked over her shoulder, to see if I was watching her. A smile came across her face as we made eye contact, and I noticed more sway to her hips as she walked the rest of the way to her house.
Just before five o'clock, the phone rang. "What does one wear to an Argentinian steak house?" she asked.
"Anything that you want, I guess," I told her. "I don't think that there is a dress code, but I wouldn't dress TOO casually."
"Ok," she said. "I have a good idea what I want to wear, but I just wanted to check, first. Do you want to pick me up, say in an hour?"
"That will be fine," I assured her. "I'll see you then."
"Ok, bye," she responded, with an almost flirty sound to her voice.
An hour later, I pulled my truck into Kate's driveway, and walked up her front stairs. As I rang her doorbell, I heard her call out, "Come on in. It's open."
A couple of seconds later, while I was waiting in her living room, Kate walked in. "Hi," she said. "Do I look ok?"
"Ok?" I asked as I looked her over. "No. You look incredible!"
She was dressed in a white halter dress, with a red design. She had on a pair of open-toed red heels, and her long amber hair was pulled back in a ponytail. The dress went about mid-thigh, and showed off her legs very nicely.
The dress did a lot to emphasize her full breasts, which I guessed to be a large 'B' or a small 'C' cup, and her nicely rounded hips and ass. I was used to seeing her in her casual jeans and T-shirts, and like this, I thought that she could give Amy a run for her money, which was saying a lot!
"Thank you," she said, smiling. Turning her back side toward me, she asked the one question that men fear the most, "You don't think that this makes my butt look big?"
"Honestly, I think that the entire outfit makes you look incredible," I told her. "You will have every man, and a few women, looking at you."
"Oh, stop," she said, blushing slightly. "Don't forget, I've seen Amy dressed up for you, and I don't look ANYthing like that!"
"No, you DON'T look like Amy," I told her. "But you DO look just as beautiful, or dare I say, just as hot, as she does."
"Stop it," she said again, this time blushing fully. "Really?"
"Yes, really," I told her. "Now, are you ready?"
"Yes, I'm ready, and I'm hungry. Let's go!"
When we got to the restaurant, I was proven right. From the valet who helped Kate out of my truck, to the young hostess who seated us, down to the other diners already there, both men and women, Kate drew a lot of attention.
"Now, can I say that I told you so?" I asked her after we were seated.
"Told me so, about what?" she asked.
"About how good you look," I told her. "The valet couldn't keep his eyes off of your legs, the hostess gave you the once over, and a big smile as we walked in, and almost every man, and quite a few women, watched you as we walked to our table. You look incredible."
"The valet is just a kid," she responded, "and the hostess is just being nice. That's her job."
"You can try to convince yourself all you want," I told her. "The fact is that a young kid, who sees a lot of younger women every day, was practically drooling over you, and a young woman gave you the once over. She didn't look at me like that."
"Stop," she said, blushing. "I'm sure that you're just imagining things."
"Ok, I won't embarrass you," I said, "but I know what I saw."
After that, I noticed Kate giving me glances over the top of her menu as we decided what to order. As we made eye contact at one point, she had a big smile on her face, obviously enjoying the fact that, at the very least, she had my attention.
We enjoyed a very nice dinner, a bottle of very nice red wine, and some excellent conversation. We decided to stay there after dinner, and listened to the house band play some Samba music.
We sat and had some more wine while we watched people dancing, and as I watched her moving to the rhythms in her chair, I asked Kate if she wanted to dance.
"You want to dance?" she asked, shocked.
"Why not?" I said. "I've never even tried to Samba before, but I'm willing to make myself look like a fool. Besides, I can't look any worse than some of the people out there right now."
