Dr. Greg Clark had kept himself busy the past week and a half. Very busy. Since the shower and Mallory and...the confusion, he found that free time meant time thinking about it. About her lips, about her tongue, about how it felt when he thought it was his wife, Gina, and how it felt when he it knew it was Mallory. He didn't like the thoughts. Actually, he did like them. A lot. And he didn't like that. So he stayed busy. It was not a perfect system, but it worked.
At this moment, he was busy rearranging the recipe cards and cookbooks. It wasn't fun or glamorous, but then, that wasn't the point.
The front door opened with a low squeak and Greg looked up, expecting to see his wife coming with their two kids, Shelly and Martin. Instead, it was Mallory. Her hair was up in a French braid, her skin smooth and lightly tanned. She wore a cream tank top that clung to her upper body, making it clear how firm her stomach was and how perky her breasts were. She had paired it with a sexy, but understated black pleated skirt cut just above the knee. His eyes continued down her thin, shapely legs to a pair of black high heeled shoes that added at least four inches to her stature. Greg stared. He knew he was staring. He knew he shouldn't. And yet, he stared. She noticed him, smiled, and held his gaze.
Aware that this had gone on too long, the doctor forced himself to work his jaws.
"Umm," he squeaked, "Hey Mallory. I, uh I don't think we need you today."
"Oh, no. I'm not here to babysit," she paused, smirked at him, and cocked her hips to the left, letting him sweat it out before continuing, "Gina lets me hang her sometimes between classes."
"Oh, alright then," he mumbled, gathering up his little project. Mallory's very presence made the thoughts hard to shake and introduced new ones that were perhaps better described as fantasies. He made the decision to get away from her as soon as possible.
As he stood to leave the kitchen, she spoke to him, forcing him to stay lest he be rude.
"It's weird that you are home though. Aren't you usually at the office this time of day?" She asked this casually while sitting on the coach in the living room, not even looking at him as she searched the cushions for the remote. Greg felt himself relax a bit. She was obviously disinterested in him now. Maybe the shower encounter was like a sorority initiation thing or something. He still felt like a dirty older man, but at least she wasn't interested in a sequel.
"Usually, yeah. Twice a year though, I close the office to move old files to storage and destroy even older files. Today was one of those days and I finished quick. So I let myself go early."
"Benefits of being your own big boss, huh?"
"One of several, yes."
"So is it still cool if I stay here then?"
"Yeah, sure. No problem."
"Good because I need the break. Public speaking always takes it out of me."
"Oh, you had to make a presentation or something today? Is that why you are dressed so nice?"
"You think I'm dressed nice?" Mallory asked in return, eyebrow arches for a split second. She let the question hang in the air a few moments before rescuing the doc from having to respond. "Yeah, it was for my English class. We had to read a piece we wrote to the class."
"You think you did well?" Greg inquired, still blushing from her calling him on saying she was well-dressed.
"I think I did. I just took that age old advice about calming the nerves and didn't wear panties," she casually responded.
"Heh," he choked in shock, "You are funny. You are supposed to imagine the audience in their underwear, not take yours off."
"Oops," she giggled at an empty room as Greg was already scurrying to the master bedroom.
Joking or not, talk of Mallory not wearing panties under her pretty little skirt had gotten his mind racing. He felt much safer away in his room, away from her, if that was going to happen. It might not stop him from imagining her sliding out of that skirt in front of him, but at least he wouldn't be tempted to do something stupid.
"You know what I find funny?" Mallory declared as she pushed the door open and entered the bedroom. She had a gleam in her eye that froze Greg in place.
"Umm..." was all he could utter in response.
"I find it funny that a nice guy, a gentleman by all accounts, facefucks a younger woman, fills her mouth with his load, and never even brings it up to her for like 10 days after. I find that very funny."
