The day went by quicker when she had something to look forward to. Kendra had almost forgotten about the night before and she was trying to see all the positive that had come with the sudden changes. There was definitely some attraction between the two of them and she was wondering where it would go. He came and got her around quitting time and offered her a drink.
She helped him cook, their bodies touching once or twice accidently as they moved around each other in the kitchen. It was something that she had done with Cedric and she missed the intimacy of it. Joel worked well in the kitchen and before she knew it, there was dinner made and it was just so comfortable, it didn’t feel like they had only known each other a day. By the end of it, she felt like she knew him more, but there was something he was hiding, she just knew it. It wasn’t that he lied, or she didn’t think he had, but he seemed to be omitting a lot.
The two worked well together and after a week, she was even more smitten than she had been before. He had a way about him that drove her crazy, but it was the fact that he didn’t act on the lust in his eyes, that drove her mad. She wanted nothing more but to give him everything, even after learning it wasn’t always the best idea. Kendra didn’t want to say she was in love, but she was certainly in like. They had a date, an actual date set for the next day on Sunday before they went back to work. He wouldn’t tell her where they were going or what they were doing, but it didn’t really matter. All that mattered was that she was going to get to see him.

Kendra got dressed in something a bit flashier than the jeans and T shirts that had become her work clothes. It was all she ever wore and it was nice to get dressed up. She just hoped that he didn’t want to do anything too crazy with what she was wearing.
The red dress was short and her heels were tall. Kendra was pretty tall, so it was nice to be able to wear some heels for once without upsetting a man and his delicate ego. Joel did not seem to have any ego, just a self-confidence that made him even more attractive. He was so sure of himself and everything that he did, Kendra of course thought that it would translate into the bedroom as well.
It had been a couple of weeks since she had been with Cedric and the lack of sex was getting to Kendra. She was having trouble concentrating day after day around Joel in such close quarters and he hadn’t made a move. Kendra was ready to be the one to make the moves and though she was not dominate by nature, she was willing to try something new if it got her what she wanted and what she wanted was Joel.
She heard a soft knock at the door and she opened it. He was dressed up a little as well and his cologne stopped her in her tracks. He smelled so good that she leaned in for a kiss before she realized what she was doing. His lips were soft on hers and he hid his surprise well. Neither was ready for it and Kendra was molded against him panting by the time he pulled away.
“Sorry, I don’t know what came over me.”
“No need to be sorry, really.”
“In that case, you wouldn’t want to stay in, would you?” Her blue eyes looked up at him with need, leaving him no doubts as to what she really wanted.
“No, I thought we would go out, have a fancy meal and then go down to the park.”
It sounded nice, sweet, but it was not what she had in mind. Kendra tried to hide her pout and disappointment. She was not sure why she felt so horny, so full of need, but there was no denying the state he put her in with just one kiss. “Okay, let me just get my purse.”
He waited for her by the door, afraid to move forward to stop himself from going too far. It was not a good time for a romance, but Kendra had just shown up. There was still another week until he wanted to move to that level, until he was able to. He just had to wait, but as he watched her bend over to get something off a table, he groaned to himself. It was going to be a long week.
The fancy dinner was nice, but Kendra would have much rather had dinner at his place. It was more intimate and she would have had a better chance to tempt him. It was what she was doing, trying her best to tempt him into what she wanted from him.
After the meal, he took her out to a small park where he brought a blanket and they laid out to watch a meteor shower that was timed almost perfectly. Kendra found her way into his arms and sighed as they watched the cosmic show above them. It was one of those moments that she would always remember. Sighing against him, she snuggled deeper, her leg moving around him as she held him close. Kendra didn’t want to moment to end.
He turned to look at her and she moved forward for another kiss. His lips responded quickly to her and she moaned softly against his mouth. Her leg went to straddle his thighs and her body was on top of him as their tongue tangled together. There was a clear indication of his need against her hips, Joel grinding up against her made her mind muddled and her own hips moved harder.
Joel was taking over, his hand pulling her down till she couldn’t move and then his body rolled her onto her back, pinned underneath him. The hard rod in his pants pushed against her opened legs, right on her center and she cried out with a sudden surge of pleasure. He felt so damn good and her body was ripe with need. Kendra whimpered as his hand cupped her large mound, rolling the hard tip in between his fingers.
She moaned underneath him as he pulled back to kiss her neck, biting on her shoulder. Kendra’s hips ground against his hardness, her legs had opened wide to accept him in against her core. The short dress had ridden up and her panties had dampened as he pushed against her. Kendra urged him lower, her body rising and falling in the quest to get more attention to her burning center.
Joel pulled back and she sat up, her hands going to his pants. Grabbing a handful of his hardness, her eyes looked up at him, silently begging for what she held in her hand. He growled at her and started to yank her panties down before he stopped suddenly.
He moved back, his eyes still as black as the night when he looked at her trembling body. Her thighs trembled and she waited, unsure why he had stopped. “I can’t do this Kendra. Not now, I’m sorry.”
Kendra sat up and wiped her mouth. Her confusion was clear, as was her unabated lust. She needed him and he couldn’t leave her like she was. “Please Joel. What is it? I don’t understand. Don’t you want me?”
“Yes, it’s just that I can’t right now. I really, really want to. I don’t think I have wanted anything else so much in my life.” Joel’s cock was rock-hard and he pushed down on it as he looked away. Looking at her was not helping the way he felt and his own screaming needs.
She was sitting back up, resituating herself so that she was mainly covered. Her eyes couldn’t hold his as she moved to slide her panties back on. It was the very last thing that she wanted to do, but she had no choice.
“Why not? What are you not telling me Joel because I seriously don’t get it? You need it just as much as I do.”
He pulled back and sighed. “I can’t because I am married Kendra.”
She pulled away and was not sure what to say or if her mouth would even cooperate. Of course he was married, she thought to herself. It was the way of it. The good ones were always taken. She felt like an idiot for pushing herself on him. Joel was just as unavailable as Cedric had been, but in a more concrete way. Standing up, she turned to leave and he got up to stop her. “Wait Kendra, it’s not what you think.”
“I think I was a fool.”
His hand moved to stop her, to make her look at him, but she was not having it. She wrenched her hand away, trying not to show him that she was upset, heartbroken even. Kendra admonished herself for falling so hard, so fast.
He was more firm and she didn’t have another choice but to look back. “I’m getting divorced and it is finalized next Friday.”
It made it a little better, but there was still a feeling of betrayal that she wanted to sort out before she dealt with him. Then the obvious wonder of what else he was hiding from her if he could hide that. She wanted to know how long, with who, all of the things that she really shouldn’t want to know, but she did. Kendra didn’t ask though, she still had hurt in her eyes when she looked back at him.
“Kendra I just didn’t know how to tell you. I didn’t mean for tonight to happen, I wanted to wait.”
“Well then you will. I will see at work tomorrow, but I would rather not mention this again. I need to think about this some. Will you just take me home please?”
He nodded and grabbed up the blanket, not even attempting to fold it. She could tell by his quickened movement that he was upset and she wasn’t sure why. He had been the deceitful one and when she thought about it, that was how she felt about it. Walking away, her desires turned into irritation and she just wanted to get home and lay down. She had told Joel too much, shared too much with another person. Kendra couldn’t get home fast enough and wished that he would hurry up.
He followed her to the truck and tried to salvage the night, but she was quiet as they drove back and there was no offer for coming up for a drink. Kendra did not look back as she undid her door, a moment’s thought of him helping her before. It was all different now.
