Back story-
This is a story to follow up a side story in the 3rd chapter of Chelsea's 18th Birthday. Since this story includes no mention of Chelsea or Brent, I have decided to exclude it from that series. However, it is best to read Chelsea's 18th Birthday Ch 3 in order to understand who Clay and Angela Pumley are and the relationship that they share. For those who don't want to read that chapter, Clay,19, who lives upstairs from Ms Angela Pumley (a 26 yr old curvaceous widow), is caught masturbating in her bedroom when she comes home unexpectedly. She takes full advantage of the situation and takes his virginity. Where this story picks up, Angela has not spoken to Clay for a number of weeks.
~~~~~*~~~~~*~~~~~
Clay came home and threw his work apron on the coffee table. Flopped down on the couch, he grabbed the remote and turned on the television. As he was skimming through the titles of the pay-per-view porn, his eye was caught by a little orange light. His cell phone had slipped out of his apron and the bright little light indicated that he had missed a call while he was working.
Cursing himself, he switched the phone off of silent mode and then called his voicemail box.
"Clay, this is Angela Pumley. If you're not too busy I'd like for you to come down to my apartment tonight at about 9. I'd like for you to help me with something."
Clay's head was reeling and he threw his hands in the air in celebration. She finally called! It had been weeks since he lost his virginity to her in what had been the most amazing day of his life and she had finally called! There was, however, something strange about her message, almost unsettling. She sounded friendly enough but there was not even a hint of that seductive minx that she was the last time he saw her. Was she needing him to watch her cat again? But that didn't make much sense, why would she call on him to do that again when the last time he neglected the stupid cat and it ended up shredding her end table?
If nothing else, seeing her would at least get her to remember the time they had together and perhaps she may consider a second rendezvous.
~~~~~*~~~~~*~~~~~
Clay had no idea what to expect. He hadn't heard from Angel in so long he'd begun to think she just used him. Not to say that he wasn't fine with that; he just wanted more of it.
He was careful about what he wore. He wanted to appear neat but still not overly conservative as he prepared to leave for her apartment on the first floor. Just in case the night turned out in his favor, he was freshly shaven on his face, his downstairs was trimmed up, his hair was clean and he even dabbed on a little extra of his favorite cologne.
Clay made a point to show up about 10 minutes early because, in the back of his mind, he knew he'd have trouble just building up the courage to knock on her door. As he stood in front of her door, he could feel his temperature rise a bit as his nerves began to get the best of him. He swallowed hard and began silently rehearsing what to say in his head. Should he call her Angela or Ms. Pumley? Should he flirt or would she take it the wrong way?
What does she want?
he thought.
And why am I so nervous?
"Clay?" Ms. Pumley walked up beside him from behind sporting a fairly confused look and a sweet little yellow sun dress.
Shit!
Clay thought.
"What are you doing?" she asked while giving him the once-over. At that point he knew that she suspected his anticipation.
"It's 9 o'clock. I was knocking," he stammered.
Why am I such a bumbling idiot?!
"You knocked? Surely Charlie would have answered the door."
Of course!
he thought.
That's why she hasn't called. She got a
real
boyfriend.
"Oh. I did it kinda soft," he lied.
Angela opened the door and allowed Clay to pass before she entered and closed it behind her. Clay stood there in the entry and out of the way, still not clear on why he was summoned.
"Have a seat, Clay," Angela said and she took a seat opposite the couch.
"Rumples really did a number on my end table," she said with a raised eyebrow and pursed lips. Clay couldn't decipher if it was angry or playful.
Clay glanced over and noticed that the furniture that her cat shredded was completely removed from the apartment.
"Ms. Pumley, I'm really sorry about that. I can replace it for you."
"I've already got the replacement ordered. That cost me a few hundred bucks to replace as a single."
"Ms. Pumley, I can get you that money. I swear, I'll just need a couple months."
Angela thought carefully and studied his worrisome face. He didn't know how in the world he would come up with the money.
"No, Clay, it's alright. You don't have to pay me any money but I will expect you to take better care of Rumples in the future."
Clay was relieved and surprised that she would actually consider letting him help again, especially after the poor job he did the first time.
"I'd actually like for you to start tomorrow. I'm leaving in the afternoon and will be gone for a few days. Do you think you can be a little more attentive this time?" She reached out her hand and gave him her spare key.
"Oh, yes, ma'am. I won't let you down, I swear." Clay rose and started to step toward the door.
"Oh, wait," Angela called. "Where are you going?"
"I'm sorry?"
"Well, I was hoping you wouldn't leave so soon. I'd like for you to meet Charlie."
Yeah, I really don't wanna meet you new man,
Clay thought to himself.
"Charlie," Angela called over her shoulder.
Clay took a deep breath and watched as a lovely young lady around his age entered the room slowly. Her shoulder length blond hair was curled under framing her round face nicely. He couldn't stop staring at her big blue eyes.
Angela sat in the chair, pleased at his reaction to her new friend.
"Clay, this is Charlese. Charlese, Clay."
