So very hot ….
It had been a long hot summer so far and it didn’t look like there was any relief in sight. The temps were climbing every day into the 90’s. Everyone was slowing down. It seemed even the traffic lights had no ambition to change from red to green and nobody was complaining because they didn’t want to move anyway.
Few people were out and about but his attention was draw to an orangy glow moving down the street. The figure glided along the sidewalk, almost floating. So graceful and confident and soft. A beautiful women. The breeze blowing down the avenue caused her skirt to flutter a bit at the hem revealing even more of the golden skin of her thigh. He was captivated. He watched as she walked toward him. He took in a deep breath and exhaled slowly imagining the sweet scent of her skin.
He was sitting at his desk, in the corner office of a usually busy downtown, daydreaming. Dreaming of a crisp winter day trying to cool his mind if not his body. Seeing her hot body didn’t help that any. It fueled a fire that was smoldering in his imagination. She had on a flowing wrap-around shirt and a tiny tank top and probably no bra... her breasts were swaying as she walked and her nipples were pressing through the thin fabric. He couldn’t stop staring.
The streets were nearly abandoned in the heat. The store owners were happy to see anyone walking outside. The ice-cream shop was doing well today. Remarkably so was the coffee shop, lucky for them they put a smoothy bar in early in the spring to attract the summer crowd.
As she passed his window he got up from his desk and told the receptionist that he would be back soon. “I’m stepping out for a moment, it sounds strange as hot as it is but a change of scenery might be good for my mind.”
As he stepped out the door he saw her duck into the coffee shop. “Yes!” he thought to himself, “what a wonderful opportunity.” He hurried down the sidewalk to the coffee shop.
They were standing in line next to each other. He was quite a bit taller than her but her high heeled sandals gave her a bit of a lift. He breathed in deeply, her scent was sweeter than he imagined. Beautiful fresh flowery perfume and fresh sunshine on her skin filled his senses. He stood there dazzled in a trance.
“Are You ok?” she asked rather loudly, he thought.
“Um yes... I’m fine thank you. And you?” he said but had a curious look on his face, he assumed a look that matched hers.
“Oh, the waitress asked You a question and You just kept humming a tune and smiling.”
“Sorry, that was pretty rude of me. I guess my mind was just somewhere else,” he blushed a bit. If they could read his mind....!
“That’s ok. we just wanted to make sure You were all right. The heat is really getting to people.” She said in the softest most caring voice he had ever heard.
“Thank you. That’s really very kind of you. I value kindness.” he smiled with a warm soft smile that made his chestnut eyes sparkle. She was taken by him.
“I hope you don’t think I’m being forward... but would you like to join me?” he asked in a quiet shy voice.
“Oh my yes... I would love to, thank You,” she answered almost too excited at the invitation.
They sat by the window. Kind of silly, there weren’t any people to watch, but there were a few cars driving through town. The conversation was pretty light.
