I hate this rain, it seems to be never-ending. South Florida, the Sunshine state. Whoever came up with that one was a wee bit off. Granted, I would never move for anything. There is nothing like the freedom of our USUAL tropical weather. I rarely wear shoes, not to mention clothes. But here I sit with my securely closed convertible top the only thing keeping me from the torrential storm outside my windows. Lazily, I am staring watching the downpour when I hear a short horn blast, which smacks me back to reality. Oh. Light is green. Sorry impatient one in the humongous conversion van behind me. Rude. Must be a former New Yorker (like the rest of us)
Publix, where shopping is a pleasure, is our wonderful monopolized grocery chain. And that is precisely where I am headed on this lovely Saturday morning. I, not being the average female who loves the shopping experience, am so glad to be here. Frankly it sucks.
I'm pulling into the parking lot, and I get a nice close spot, which only matters because of the weather. I love parking next to the handicapped spots, more room. Then, in pulls my horn honker in his luxurious conversion van. Yippee. Might as well make a run for it. I get out of my car; hit the remote to lock the doors and head toward the store. But curiosity causes me to twist my head around in an attempt to catch a glimpse of rude van man.
Well, never did I expect to not only catch a glimpse, but also get a full on view of the driver. Perfect view actually, mostly facilitated by the fact that in the steady rainfall I have now involuntarily turned and stopped dead. Perched in a rather sporty looking wheelchair is the man who exists in most of my deepest sexual fantasies. Shoulder length mousy brown hair, pulled back into a sleek ponytail, prominent jaw, wide strapping shoulders, narrow waist, and rather hefty legs for a man in a chair. He looks up at me and I swear his eyes are golden. I guess they are hazel, but from the reflection of the water off the hot Florida pavement, they are illuminated. His lips slowly curve into a decent smile, and it is now that I realize I am really, really wet. Not merely soaked to the bone, but warm and moist between my thighs as well. Rather sheepishly, I smile and spin myself around heading toward my original goal ... the food store.
Barely focusing on my shopping needs, I simply quit on aisle 5 and head to checkout. Great, only 2 lanes open, the 10 items or less speedy check out (I have 15 items) and the one My fantasy van man is now occupying.
I am methodically transferring my groceries onto the belt when I hear his glorious melodic voice...
"Hello, My name is Dr. Trey Miller, you are?" extending his hand. Taking hold of it I am sure he can feel my heart beating right through my hand.
"Vanessa" is my reply in a voice I don't recognize.
"You seem off in dreamland today, you must have something on your mind."
Right my MIND that's it.
" And no I am not a psychologist, sports medicine actually." He lightheartedly states.
