A Simple Life: Chapter 151

I couldn’t believe my ears. First the promise ring and now Winona was asking me to move in with her!? Everything with her was happening SO FAST! So fast, yet nearly not fast enough. With caution nowhere to be seen we were hurtling into the unknown at light speed. It was stupidly reckless. It was carelessly foolish. But we were young and in love. The perfect combination for making mistakes. Big mistakes. Huge, life altering mistakes. But if I was going make just one big mistake in my life…I wanted it to be her.

“Well?” She says, her nerves cracking through the brittle calm at her surface. I had her on tenterhooks and then some. “I get it if you don’t want to. It’s too quick and I got no space but…damn it! Do you wanna shack up or what? Tell me!”

“Shack up?”

“Well do you!?”

“Sounds s-so…tawdry. L-Like we’re living in s-sin.”

“Avery!”

“Though cohabitate d-doesn’t sound s-so romantic either, does it?”

“AVERY!”

I turn to face her and take both her hands in mine. “Winona.”

“Yes? Yes!?”

“Do you w-wanna get some ice c-cream?”

“Do I…? Ice cream!? You’re asking about me ice cream!?”

I nod to the side. “There’s a r-really good spot r-right over there. The Rocky Road triple ripple dipple is t-to die for.”

She looks at me, flabbergasted, before picking me up and throwing me over her shoulder. “You’re going for a swim.”

“Whaaaa!” I giggle and wriggle as she starts walking around looking for a way down to the choppy waves. “Noooo!”

Twirling me around she laughs the brings me to the front to hold me cradled in her arms. We look at each other for a split second before she plants a hard kiss on my lips. “If you don’t answer me right now…”

“Yes!” I cry out. “Ha ha ha!”

“Yes?”

“YES!”

“Oh!” She gasps before dropping me to my feet and wrapping me up in a great big hug. “Oh, Avery!”

I hug her back with all my strength. “I j-just wanna be w-with you.”

“And I wanna be with you!”

We smooch again, oblivious to the steadily increasing rain. “S-So when? How? Wh-What do you…?”

“Avery.”

“Yeah?”

“Discuss it over ice cream?”

I smile. “Excellent idea. Why d-didn’t I think of that?”

We take each other’s arms and tip toe on air as we make our way to the shop. As we cross the street the sky opens up. Pelted by a deluge of frigid rain Winona and I sprint the last ten yards to burst into the empty and formerly quiet ice cream parlor laughing and hooting up a storm. The woman behind the counter snorts and startles to her feet, rubbing her eyes in a clear sign that she’d been snoozing on the job.

“Whooeee!” Winona shakes the rain from her arms. “Lovely weather we’re havin, huh?”

“Er, yeah.” The woman says. I think she was mildly annoyed at us for disturbing her rest. “Not much call for ice cream on a day like this.”

“Well we’re celebrating.” Winona hooks an arm around me again and yanks me into her side. “My baby just accepted my promise ring. We’re moving in together!”

I giggle and nod as best I can being smashed up against her shoulder. “Yep!”

“Er, congratulations?”

Winona strides to the counter, me riveted to her flank, and says. “The Rocky Road triple dipple ripple.”

“Ripple dipple.”

“Huh?”

“It’s ripple dipple, not dipple ripple.”

“Whatever!” Winona was already digging in her pocket for her card. “Biggest size you have. And whatever my man wants.”

“Um. C-Can I just sh-share?”

“You wanna share ice cream?” Winona swoons, we were both in a very swoony mood right now. “That’s so romantic! Yes. Extra large dipple ripple…”

“Ripple dipple.”

“Whatever. One of those with two spoons, please.”

“Inside or out?”

Glancing back at the sheets of rain streaming down the windows Winona looks back at the woman. “Uh, what do you think?”

“Oh, right.” The woman sighs. “Coming right up.”

The bill is paid, a big bowl of the chocolaty sweet stuff scooped, and soon Winona and I are sitting opposite in a booth by the window staring into each other’s eyes. Neither the raging elements nor my treasured new ring could tear my gaze from her. With the bowl in the center of the table as we nibble away from each side with our spoon, sometimes even feeding each other, we must have looked like a Norman Rockwell come to life. It was cheesy, it was corny, it was a sugarcoated fantasy and we couldn’t care less. No two people had ever been in love as hard as we were.

As we bask we talk about the exciting next phase of our relationship.

“Once I’m w-working I can pay some room and b-board. Whatever you w-want.”

“I’m not worried about that, Sprout.” She says, the middle finger of her free hand playing back and forth over my ring. “Chip in as you can. We’ll manage.”

We. We! God how I have come to love that word. “I’ll d-do my fair share. I can c-cook and…”

“I don’t care, baby.” She sighs. “I just want you home with me. It’ll all work, somehow. It’ll just work.”

“Yeah.” I sigh back. “I’ll b-be further away from G-Grandpa.”

“Not so far.” She says. “If you need to get there in a hurry I’ll run every red if I have to.”

I titter. “He’s not g-gonna believe this. This is even f-faster than him and Grandma.”

“Why wait on what’s inevitable?”

“Yeah. What’ll P-Pops say?”

“That we’re moving too fast. That we should wait. That we’re a couple of fools blinded by love. Emphasis on the fools. Kayla’s gonna say the same. Hell, everyone will.”

“Guilty on all ch-charges.

“I love’em, but fuck’em. This is our life.”

“He he he! And y-your Mom?”

“She won’t like it. Especially once she’s learned that you might be jobless right away. But there’s not a damn thing she can do to stop it.” She smirks and licks a bit of chocolate from the corner of her mouth. Dang. I was hoping I could do that. “Which will bother her even more. She hates not having control. He he he. I can’t wait to tell her.”

“You are t-trouble.”

“Me?” She says with mock offense. “Never.” With that she scoops another big spoonful and licks it down. “You have to give notice I assume?”

“Yeah.” I say. “I might be on the hook for one m-more month. And I d-don’t want to abandon B-Brayden with no warning. I’ve g-got the s-savings I was holding for a n-new bike. I’ll be able to cover it.” Taking a spoonful, carefully making sure to get both ripple and dipple in it, she reaches across and slips it into my mouth. Gazing into her eyes with smoldering desire…I wrap my lips around the shaft the spoon and slowly pull back. “Mmmmm.” A brow raises, but she says nothing. “I’ll have to t-talk to Brayden about it. Maybe I c-can get out quicker.”

“You can still move either way.”

“Yeah.” I smile. “What about the g-game? Whose gonna host?”

“No worry. Now that Kayla’s actually into it she’ll be happy to have it at her place. I’m just going to have to get used to being spied on by her nosy house. Ugh.”

“You and b-babe are going to have to m-make friends.”

“Oh, hell no!” We chuckle…then fall silent, our eyes locked, as we each are thinking the same thing. Lowering her spoon she whispers. “Fuck, I want you right now.”

Her hungry tone alone makes my pussy and pecker twitch. “I w-want that too.” I whisper back. “I want you.”

“Unfortunately dad’s at the shop.”

“We could do it at my place.” I smile. “My old place.”

“Mmm.” She grins. A grin that becomes particularly devilish the more she thinks. “Or…” Without turning her head she looks toward the counter. The woman was nowhere in sight. Leaning in her voice lowers even more. “…we could do it here?”

“Here?”

“Mm.” She nods.

“Now?”

“Mm.” She nods again.

“It?”

“Well, maybe not it, it. But…” Her hazel gaze lowers to linger on my lips. “…something.” With a flit of her eyes she motions toward the corner. Silently she mouths the word. ‘Washroom.’

My heart jumping to double its usual resting rate I shrink lower with an impish grin. “F-For real?”

“I dunno. Maybe?”

“Maybe?”

“You ever do it before?”

“N-No. You?”

“Uh uh.” She shakes her head. “Kayla tried to convince me once…”

“Me too!” We share a nervous laugh. “It’s so b-bad!”

“Downright wicked. Tawdry even”

“Definitely sinful. He he he! I’ll d-do it if you do it.”

“I’ll do it if you do it.”

“Serious?”

Her eyes narrow. “Absolutely.”

“Oh geez!” A loud giggle burbles out of me.

“Shhh!” She laughs. “I think she’s sleeping again.”

Rising up Winona looks around then huddles back down close again, the half finished ice cream sitting ignored between us. “Coast is clear.” She says like we were about to commit a caper, which we sort of were. This was so risky and naughty, which made it all the more exciting. And for a taste of her cock I was willing to take some risks. I had some serious thanking to do for this beautiful ring on my finger. “We go separately.”

“Together.”

“Mmm.” She shakes her head. “Separate.” With a glance up she says. “Cameras. She might be watching right now. Less suspicious going one at a time.”

“Spoken like a t-true criminal.”

“I’m a dangerous woman.” She winks. “Go. I’ll follow in a bit.”

“Pffffft!” I can’t believe we were really doing this! AHHH! “He he he he!”

“Shhh!” She chortles just as loud as me. “Sneaky, Sprout.”

 “Right! Men’s or L-Lady’s?”

“Men’s.” Winona says, motioning toward the counter. “Just in case nature calls.”

“He he he he.”

Sliding her hand across the table she pinches my nipple through my shirt. “Go!”

“Eep!”

The next thing I knew I was on my feet and striding swiftly toward the washrooms. Though I couldn’t see her I swear I could feel the woman’s eyes following me as I went. I try to act cool, I try to act calm, but inside my kinky little heart was beating like a rock and roll drum solo.
