You’re coming out of right field on me. 

Cant think on your feet

she was forwardmaybe thought she had to be 

happily she took him by complete surprise 

few and far between were women who after spending time with Wowed him  

they had undeniable magnetismreplete with sexual tension  though he was olderthought he was outside her alley 

first time he saw her she was fast asleep on her mothers livingroom couch  Quiet please, my poor dear, she was too tired to drive home. 

                     shapelytending towards exquisite  long lovely  blonde pursing her lips like a baby perhaps talking in her dreams

a friend of her mothers a mutual friend recommended him to trim trees prune fruit trees he was appreciated because he didnt use power tools 

behind the house he realised how ample her lot wasmore trees than were casually mentioned catching his expression she said  You must really let me pay you something more for your help.   No no thank you Bonnie As agreed a homecooked meal   You’re too kind.   I am not Im helping trees be happy

Happy trees? she was upshe saw in his eyes he thought her ravishing he couldnt duck the punch  she laughed gayly 

You said happy trees.  Do you think they are sensate? 

I do

she smiled I do too. 

                      My name’s Eve. she thrusted her hand to him knew how to shake had a firm handshake   Joe Joe. I understand you’re having dinner here this evening.   I am   I’m looking forward to it, to dinner conversation. You’ll excuse me but I have things to do, and you . you . . have trees to enlightenmake happy.  she turned and left

 

   he watched her go until she was gone

dinner

   then several dinners elsewhere threefour movies  occasionally met for a drink

 

Joe.  I’d like to sleep with you.

   Why but he checked himself thought betterdidnt ask  didnt didnt didnt   didnt want to gum up the works with words

Your body surprised me.

                          the afternoon before they had coffee across from the ocean and returning to the carwalking along the beach he inexorably her told her that  inexorably had to swim to the buoy 

                                                                                             Ill be right back kicked off his sandals shed his shirt pants dashed into the surf  brisk particle sand tickle sound   embrace

she didnt join him it wasnt his intent he didnt know she didnt know how to swim hed teach her

Eve You always surprise me 

                                 Yes
