Author's note: I struggled trying to decide if this story should go into the NonConsent/Reluctance category because of the main character who tells the story or into the Sci-Fi & Fantasy category because of Vicky's gift.
I settled on NonConsent/Reluctance because the story is told by David. Feel free to provide feedback which category you think it should be in.
Graveyards are supposed to invoke thoughts of rainy days and moody music. But this was a warm and beautiful sunny day. And there was no music. I was standing looking at the slab of marble in front of me. Vicky Lemere it read. August 20, 1921 to July 15, 2014. Her real name had been Vicky Gallagher.
I met Vicky six months ago. But before I tell you her incredible story, I guess I should tell you a bit about myself. My name is David, David Kelly. I'm a thirty year old male, nothing to look at really. I'm just under six feet tall and only one hundred eighty pounds. You could describe me as lanky, geeky looking, with dark blond almost brown hair and a face no girl remembers. I just started working in an old folk's home as a personal care worker. That's where I met Vicky.
It was a cold then, a January afternoon. I was making my way down the hall on the fourth floor in the assisted care wing. You know the area with seniors who still had their wits about them but the bodies needed help or maybe the other way around. Point being they needed help. It was my first day on this floor. The box in the cart was divided into sections with containers for each senior. There was only one pill in the container for Vicky. I picked up the container and headed into her room.
Vicky was one of those seniors who still had a sharp wit but her body was failing to work as it should. She was sitting in a chair in the corner of the room looking out her window. I had to admit for an old lady she was dressed smartly, classy even. Her hair was done up in a casual bun. She turned and looked at me.
"Well hubba, hubba big boy. You got something there for hot old Vicky here", she said with a grin. Then she eyed me up and down like a piece of meat and held out her hand.
I stood still holding her pill container with my mouth open in shock. It was a combination of what she said, and her voice. It dripped sexuality. Soft, smoky, slight European accent, maybe Italian even though her name sounded French.
"Oh, good god boy! Have you never had a women leer at you before"? She withdrew her hand and turned back to gaze out the window. I heard her mutter, "You'd think I flashed my tits or cunt at him".
The pill container I carried crashed to the floor and I dropped to my knees grabbing for the pill that rolled across the floor towards her. She turned to look at the sound.
"Hmmmph, that's better. At least you know how to grovel and approach a woman".
I finally found my voice. 'I'm sorr...... sorry. Mrs. Lemans. I've got your pill here".
"It's Lemere, not Lemans. I'm a fast woman not a fast car. You need to work on your approach".
"Fast", I replied?
"I'm ninety three dear. I don't have time to go slow anymore. Oh relax I'm not going to jump your bones and seduce you although I might have twenty years ago".
Vicky struggled to her feet. Her movements were slow but her body still looked slim and fit. She walked over and took the pill and swallowed it. Then she hobbled over to the chair and sat back down gazing out the window.
And that was how I met the woman that changed my life.

The next day I hesitated before the door to Vicky's room. I had talked to several other PSW's about Vicky and they had all just nodded and grinned at me. It was Sarah who had finally told me that Vicky had a reputation. She called it "potty mouth".
"You mean she talks with foul language", I said.
"Not exactly", she replied. "She talks a lot about sex. Always asking me when I got fucked last and how good was he."
"And you answer her," I asked wide eyed.
"Are you nuts, first off it's against policy and second I'm married and not about to tell some dirty old lady what I do in the bedroom with my husband." Sarah had then turned and stomped away. I found out from another PSW a few minutes later that Sarah used to work with Vicky but had asked management to give Vicky to somebody else. As the new kid on the block that was me.
So here I stood outside her door a moment, before I walked into the room a second time. Vicky was again sitting staring out the window.
"I have your daily pill Miss Lemere," I said. "Would you like a glass of water with it"?
Vicky slowly turned and looked at me.
"Hello good looking. How about a nice chardonnay? If you get me tipsy it might help you get lucky later".
I shook my head no, afraid to say anything out loud. Vicky grinned and took the pill. She popped it in her mouth and licked her lips like she was a Greek goddess eating grapes at an orgy then turned away when I fled the room.

Day three I thought to myself standing just outside Vicky's room. I can do this. She's just a crazy old lady. I'm not going to lose my job to a crazy old lady. I walked in.
Vicky was waiting for me. I walked into her room and for the first time she was not in her chair at the window. Instead she stood in front of her dresser rearranging some photos. Looking over her shoulder I saw several black and white pictures of a very good looking, dare I say, very hot women.
"Is that your daughter", I asked?
Vicky laughed. It was a low chuckle, reminding me of old Hollywood glamor movie star.
"No", she replied. "That's me when I was younger. I have no children. Never married, puts a damper on your sex life"!
I stared at the pictures a bit stunned. Vicky in her younger years was quite the beauty.
She turned and looked straight at me then said. "I think I owe you a bit of an apology. Perhaps I've been a little too forward with you. I hope you can overlook that".
"Uhhhh, sure. No harm", I stuttered handing her the pill.
