A new york love story...... a bit of adult language and sex not much mainly romantic

The phone vibration woke me from a wonderful sexy dream.
I looked at the screen and saw it was Josh. My almost boyfriend. 
Hi honey he gushed.
 Always honey when he wanted something..
What do you want?
I snapped.
Nothing sweetie
 I just wanted to hear your sweet voice once more.
I knew he was a lying sack of manure.
Cut the BS Josh what is it.?
Well he hesitated there is one small thing.
Of course there was wasn't there always?
I can't make it to your sisters wedding two weeks on Saturday.
You bastard!  I shouted you are my plus one.
The thought of attending 
my younger sisters wedding
 without a date sent chills through me.
Just the undertones the pitiful whispers.
Does she not have anyone yet.? 
Has she tried online  dating.?
Maybe if she joined a gym lost a few pounds.
Then the worst, 
Shes not batting for the other team is she?

What now I thought?
Josh was my closest thing I  had to a boyfriend. 
He came over twice a week.
after he worked out and had a couple beers
He would feel like sex and come over to me. 
I would feed him and he got his sex.
the next time he called me
 with an itch he could scratch it himself.
Then  he would leave in the morning before I awoke.
It  wasn't perfect
 I knew he had other women he dated. 
But at thirty five and fifteen pounds overweight
And right on the upper limit of size fourteen, 
the options were getting limited. 
Who on earth could I get to be my  plus one at Sookie's wedding?
I had plussed one for Bill at my office 
but he was dating steady..
Opening the big tub of ice cream 
I  spooned six tablespoons into my mouth
 one after the other then remembered that  it lands on the ass. 
Pulling my  loose grey sweatpants on  
and comfy stretch wool  sunday sweater
 it never feels too tight 
no matter how much I ate always the comfy same.
The phone vibrated on the coffee table 
a picture of the lovely Angie my best friend
 forewarned me to cheer up and sound at least a little bit happy.
I told her about Josh being a no show for the wedding.
 she immediately jumped into support mode like always.
The shit she shouted I told you he was no good for you kell.
You need a good guy someone that really deserves you. 
I will make it my lifes work to find him for you Kell.
 I hope you are going to live to a hundred Angie I moaned. 
That is how long it will take. 
She ignored the whining.
Get dressed up we will go to the new mojito bar in town
 booze is the answer 
the trick is to drink enough 
so you can't remember the question,
I wanted to say no but ten years of Angie 
had me realize arguments were futile 
plus she always cheers me up.
Sticking my head in my closet
 was a disappointment waiting to happen.
Reaching for my beige chinos I heard Angie's last orders 
wear something sexy ringing in my ear. 
it was easy for her a perfect size six with movie star looks. 
She would look sexy wearing a garbage bag tied with string around her waist for a belt.
I had always been awkward sized 
I could still hear my dad telling his friend 
Kelly is very smart she will go places but shes no movie star. 
Looking in the mirror I took assessment of my best features 
it was my face I had a nice face with an easy smile
 topped off with my eyes not green not blue but nice.
then my damned hair frizzy big and long.
 I had it straightened once a month 
and got about two weeks out of it
 but my salary limitations stopped me 
from the twice a month it needed. 
My best outfit was size twelve a black skirt fitted 
with a sexy top scooped at the neckline
 showing lots of my considerable breast. 
I opened a new pack of control panty hose
 and managed to get them on
 immediately dropping my ass two sizes.
 I decided to get on a new diet before it was too late. 
Maybe I could find one where they stitched your mouth closed
 and you ate through a straw for a month.
I sighed even if they did that I would find a way to cheat. 

Half an hour later I was as good as I was going to look. 
Applied some eyeshadow 
and lipgloss just a hint of color on my cheeks.
My breasts bulging out of the scooped neck
 I hoped I did not look like a blousy hooker.

The bar was full of weekend patrons
 the drinks we're flowing.
we made our way through the crowd
 and reached the watering hole. 
There was one bar stool free 
Angie sat down I  tried to squeeze in next  to her.
 There was an odd looking guy sat next to us 
drinking a scotch and water no ice.
He turned to look at me as my ass caught him mid sip.
He was unshaven and wore little round John Lennon specs.
His shirt was a bit soiled  
but he had a tie on who wears ties today?
Then in a cut glass english accent he said
Excuse me dear lady,
I had no idea you were in need of a seat.
Please take mine.
Surprised I politely refused
who gave up their seat to ladies these days?
It would be my pleasure 
I insist he said.
I thanked him and sat down.
Angie laughed.
 And  said  where did lord fuckpants spring from.
He had stepped aside  sipping his scotch.
I looked at him again .
He had beautiful eyes. 
But very sad.he looked lost in  time.
Two leches tried to pick us up
Then a lesbian lady hit on me.
Are all larger women targets?

Finally a couple got into a fight
The man hit her hard
And she  fell to the floor
The man was big brutish and threatening
To my horror I saw lord fuckpants move between them 
You ...you. Bounder sir
Have you no respect for a lady he demanded.
You need to learn some manners he chirped
Apparently your mother did not teach you any.
He was twice the size of the englishman
He turned ready to vent his anger on this new victim
And what are you going to do about it limey he shouted.?
Well if you  insist I will show the way to being a gentleman.
The man was frustrated and took a swing at the smaller man 
he ducked put up his dukes like an old prizefighter 
and drove a hard right in the man's stomach 
he winced and swung left and right in the empty air.
The englishman dancing and weaving landed four combination punches 
and then an uppercut on his jaw 
as the big man fell down in defeat.
 Are you well my lady he asked the woman 
might I suggest you find alternate accommodations for the night 
and file charges against this bully 
My mouth dropped open ,
Angie jumped into action always thinking   
Hi are you single she asked?
He looked at her she was way out of his league
 and said quietly I am a Bachelor Milady 
but at moment I am unfortunately
 unable to enter into a meaningful relationship with you. 
I have immigration issues
 and am unable to work legitimately in your country. 
I hope that in no way you take this as a slight on your charms.
Rolling her eyes.
Where the fuck did this guy come from said Angie. 

Look I have a proposition for you
.they moved to a table and she bought a round of drinks.
Listen up sir galahad she said.
I take it you are unemployed without a green card.
And homeless he added
Shit said Angie.
Kelly heres the answer to your dilemma.
 galahad here can work for you for room and board 
then attend  Sookie's wedding as your escort.

Hold on a minute I said
 I don't know sherlock holmes here from Adam.
What if hes an axe murderer or worse a rapist.
I say ..I say .. hold on for a moment dear lady. 
I am a gentleman 
One who knows how to respect the feminine species.
Feminine species said Angie aloud.
is he out of a wormhole finding a rift 
in the space time continuum
 or has he got a fucking time machine.
What year do you think it is Galahad.she growled. 
Its 2014  Milady
 I acknowledge being a tad old fashioned.
But please stop the pseudonyms 
my name is Michael Alderman at your service.
Please stop with the Galahad and Sherlock thing 
and in particular the lord Fpants. .
I am a botanist not a rapist 
nor axe murderer 
I do not even own an axe.

Ok I realized fighting with Angie was pointless
 so I layed down the rules.
You can stay in  my place for two weeks 
you will couch surf there are no bedroom privileges
 ,if you catch my drift
 and you get a damn shower and shave you stink.

I am without options dear lady I accept.
And you keep the place clean and tidy comprendo..
At your service madam he  assured.
I was uneasy at this situation 
but as Angie stated
 he came to the rescue of the woman in the bar
 he can't be all bad.
Plus she dug in her knife and gave it a twist 
he can't be worse than the jackass Josh you hooked up with..
What a loser.

I looked at him again the word scruffy came to mind 
certainly not my type.
I got home dragging lord FP.
 which had become his name 
when he was discussed between Angie and me. 
If you don't mind I am exhausted milady.
I have slept in the park for a week.
in two minutes he was asleep
 I put a big blanket over him 
It seemed like he was old fashioned
But an old fashioned gentleman. 
and he smiled in his sleep 
and I noticed it was a nice smile. 

I got up at six am ready for the office.
I heard a noise in the kitchen 
and it all came to me in the cold light of day. 
How on earth had I got myself into this.mess..
Angie of course who else.
I would end it now.
As I walked into the kitchen
 he placed a mug of fresh brewed coffee in my hand.
bagels and cream cheese on the table  for breakfast
and a tuna salad sandwich for my lunch all neatly packed.  
It was good, no it was great. I never cooked.
I would fire him later when I got home.

Angie came over in the day and made him shower
 and shave 
she gave him deodorant and aftershave cologne.
 He had no decent clothes 
so she took him to the mens store 
got him slacks and shirts shoes socks and sweaters.underwear.
Money was never Angie's problem her dad was loaded.
She had an allowance bigger than any wage, 
Then he was taken to the hairdresser 
his wavy back hair cut in a nice clean style. 
When he was finished angies heart skipped a beat 
he was so damned handsome,

I will find a way to repay you Miss Angela he said softly.
Forget it honey she barked. 
Angie could be one tough cookie.
And cut out the Miss Angela BS , I am just  Angie ...get it..
He said nervously yes  Miss Angie I mean Angie.

I was ready to dump his ass when I got home
 I parked the civic in my spot. And practiced his firing.
Then as I opened the door of the apartment
 the smell of cooking no not just food 
 But gourmet food cooking. 
It was delightful 
I never cooked always fast delivery.
I walked to the kitchen and turned speechless
I saw a beautiful handsome man 
in dark blue slacks and pale blue sweater 
clean shaven and well groomed. 
 And he smelled great.
He served miso soup, tempura shrimp ,with asian salad , 
fresh fruit salad for dessert.
A glass of California chardonnay. 
Espresso coffee for afters.
We chatted for hours.
He entertained me with stories of his parents in the UK.
Of his work as a botanist.
He admitted to being a terminal nerd.
But for some reason I did not mind.
Perhaps because he was a handsome nerd.
Or that he was soft spoken and gentle.
I kind of  liked him and that bugged me,
he was getting to me.
In short I had the most interesting  date 
I have been on in years.
Right here in my own apartment. 
No strained small talk
What's your blessed sign?
Do you work out.?
Just nice interesting conversation. 
He made me relax
 and sit and read my newspaper.
As he cleaned the kitchen 
washing all the dishes. 
Then sat quietly on the sofa
 playing a soft music station with all old standards.
Ella Fitzgerald sang an old melody sweetly and softly

Everytime we say goodbye 
I die a little 
Everytime we say goodbye 
I wonder why a little

Then the light dimmed and I slept.
When I awoke he was still sat on the sofa
 he had kept vigil over me.
For once in my life
 I felt safe 
so very safe.
Go to sleep Michael I yawned.
Yes milady he whispered 
as I curled up in the chair.
Refusing to leave him alone 
on his sofa.
After a week 
I knew he was becoming my friend
What I did not know was
I was falling in love with him.

Angie called to check out how we were doing 
and how the americanization
Of lord FP was progressing..
I tried to be light almost aloof 
but Angie knew me way too well.
You're falling for him she said 
oh kell don't do that.
you will get your heart broke.

Angie said look I have a dry run for you 
and FP to try the wedding date out. 
On saturday we have a big family dinner at daddy's house.
 Come  along bring MIchael see how he does.
The idea was good, a tryout woul be perfect. 
Then the nagging thought came to me.
we only had another week to the wedding.
Then our contract was over.
And it occurred to me 
I didn't want him to go.

We arrived at Angie's parents
 her mother and father welcomed us in.
 I got my usual hugs and kisses 
Then Michael was introduced and inspected for suitability. 
He was  charming  and got on well with her father.
 Swapping stories of England' and London in particular. 
The other daughters came and their children the house was full. 
During dinner the oldest grandchild William came down 
and asked his father to help him with his homework 
his father was a  bit tipsy 
and said leave it I will look at it tomorrow. 
Michael excused himself and went to the washroom upstairs
.he was gone for a while and I went upstairs to look for him. 
Kate Angie's sister and Williams mother followed
 we found Michael sitting with William.
 They were doing math equations together. 
With Michael explaining them in great detail and patience to the young boy. 
I put my finger over my lips as I watched him exhibit such patience and  his kindness.
Kate whispered to me
 you have found a keeper there kell. 
The thought I had was I know i have 
but how can I keep him.?

We arrived home from the dinner 
Angie called me to congratulate Michael on capturing the hearts 
of her mother and her sister.
She even promised to stop calling him lord FP
 but I did not believe her.

Micheal fixed us a nightcap
 and we sat together on the sofa like a couple
It felt intimate and warm.
I looked into his lovely eyes.
We had an unusual silence between us.
It seemed for just a moment we needed no language.
all that was not said clearly understood
 all that was needed
 was not to be left undone. 
I looked into his eyes the closeness only inches
 but the distance was eons away for my heart. 
I knew he was too much a gentleman to make tge first move
Since it was me who had read him the bedroom privileges rule.
I pulled him to me and our lips touched for the very first time.
just a grazing touch yet with more need than ever before in my life..
In silence I took his hand and led him to my bedroom. 
 He whispered softly 
kelly are you sure this is what you want. 
Actions speak louder than words
as i kissed him with all the love I had 
he responded our tongues exploring sending promises to each other 
Silently shouting I need you take all, you want of me. Take all I have.
He undressed me like a new bride
 all my past lovers melted away in the annals of my memory
 meaningless and trivial.
 I was new again as much a virgin as the first time.
 He was gentle yet demanding 
nestling his face into my breast seeking my nipples to suckle as a child.
 He whispered to me in french oh 
ma cherie ma petite fleur je t'aime je t'aime 
his kiss trailed down along the swell of my breast to my tummy
 then to below 
I blushed as he was going to find how wet I was. 
His  fingers parted me softly as he drank  my wetness
 flicking his tongue on my pleasure center 
I came in an  involuntary orgasm arched in spastic wanton pleasure
 he let me come then entered me hard and gently
 rocking me to a second and third orgasm 
I screamed I love you I love you I love you 
as I felt his ejaculation pulsing in me.
Afterwards  he did not exit from  me but stayed inside me
 flaccid and spent.  
We fell asleep like that  until hours later 
I felt him hardening inside me and we made love again.
Then I fell into the best sleep I ever had 
I felt safe and loved and so very warm.

Angie met me the next day for coffee
 she saw me and said oh my god you are in love.
 I blushed but acknowledged she was as usual correct. 
I told her about the sex we had 
how with josh he would get what he wanted 
and I had to use my shower nozzle to get what I needed 
and how Michael had patiently pleasured me again and again. 
She smiled and said just don't get your heart torn apart kell 
but it was  already too late that ship had sailed.

I got home from work on the monday I was  tired and cranky
 my boss had ridden me all day 
I was totally stressed out. 
As I walked into the apartment.  
Michael seemed to know he said come on in my love you are safe and warm in your home now 
he slipped a glass of chardonnay into my hand then sat me on the sofa. He kneeling before me he massaged me  until I came down.
 now let that awful day go honey this is for you my love.
Rejuvenated we ate dinner and chatted about everything, 
God I loved him.
Angie phoned and I shared my homecoming massage story with her. 
She laughed and said what are you going to do for him.
I laughed back and said I am going to do things to him
 that I could not even tell my mother about 
She roared in approval.

Then the wedding came
We drove up to seneca falls in  New York State and prepared to meet my family.
Michael had my family  out of his hand I my sister thought he was the best thing I had done ever in men and i agreed with her.
On friday for the rehearsal micheal was sat in the grass with ten of the fzmily kids of all Ages teaching them about plant varieties  
I couldn't wait to get him into bed again 
The wedding went over beautifully sookie got married to her dentist they would move to Connecticut and buy a monster home. She would change from sexy party girl to dowdy soccermom drive a minivan and have two children if it was boy and girl but three if not .

I danced with Michael envious of sookie not because of her wealthy husband but because she was married I wanted Micheal tied down to just me my invisible chains of love holding him to me stronger than any steel links could.op
He whispered I love you kelly so very much.
I fought back tears as I whispered back I love you too honey.
Then I looked at him all cleaned up and so good looking I could not believe he loved me.
I asked why he loved me he could get lots of prettier girls.
He floored me with his answer 
changing the way I saw myself 
so full of physical issues so self absorbed not the least being my copious ass.

He said I don't want someone who is beautiful to the world
I want you kelly. 
You make my world more beautiful to me.

We made love again that night in the hotel this time slowly and tenderly it was almost as though we were saying goodbye as if I could feel a premonition that he was going away in a few hours time and we needed 
to savour this moment..

I was so tired 
the feeling of loss could not go away and I had  ot slept at all that night.
Michael drove the car back to new york.
He was driving a little too fast on the highway. 
The police car waved us down. oh no a stupid ticket I thought , just a dumb ticket.
 I wish that was all.it was. 
Michael pulled his drivers license it was of course British.
They asked for the immigration visa 
thats when they arrested him.
 I begged them to let him go  but they ignored
 my pleas and he was taken to the  illegal immigrant holding centre 
where a judge ordered him deported in six hours
 he  was in the giant silver bird flying to heathrow.

I could not eat or work 
and in two weeks I was sick so very sick 
and fainted in the street.the doctor at the hospital drew blood 
And had me pee in a cup..
Later that day she stood by my hospital bed 
and said you are pretty good shape a little bit dehydrated but very pregnant.

Angie and sookie were in the room 
I placed my head in Angies arms shhhh she said
 it will be ok I will be here for you.
You always have me.
She tried to get me to have a visit to the local abortion clinic
 to sort this out as she advised.
But I had my mind set up  I was keeping the baby it was all I had left of Michael.  
I would get by somehow. 

I grew and grew I had no idea pregnancy could make you so big.
 at seven months the doctor ordered more test
 and called me into her office. 
You have preeclampsia kelly.  
What is it I asked scared. Your kidneys and  blood pressure are not working correctly.
She prescribed blood pressure and anti seizure meds 
I had not heard anything from michael
 Angie said she could send two guys over to England and have him killed.
I said he's fine if he wants me he will come back 
but I did not feel he ever would,
The eighth month I started having seizures
 and my doctor said I needed to deliver as eclampsia is setting in 
and it could kill both me and the baby..
I went into the hospital and they induced the baby.
I wished michael was here but he did not know about the baby
 I had no intention of using it to control him..
Thats when the baby came and I went into a coma.
They worked on me but I stayed under
 several days turned to weeks.
Then one day I heard singing a very long way away.
The words to a half forgotten tune flowed in my head.
Like voices travelling over water.

I love you for sentimental reasons
I hope you do believe me
I'll give you my heart

I love you and you alone were meant for me
Please give your loving heart to me
And say we'll never part

It was the song that Michael used to sing for me.
My song.
Our song.

I opened my eyes and the bright  light was playing tricks with my eyes.
Next to me I could see Michael
I could feel him holding my hand
It felt warm and safe as always.

Is is ...it ..you
Yes darling its me 
I will never leave you again.

Later when I was recuperating at home
I found out Michael had been contacted by Angie in London.
He had applied for a position  at the University
 as a professor of botanical studies.
A position that gave him legal  immigration status 
but only if we were married inside 60 days.
It was called a fiance visa.
He left the moment he heard the news from Angie
 and then never left my side day and night.
Awake now 
I asked him 
 the baby.... is the baby ok?
He smiled , well in the plural , 
the twins are both doing fine.
OMG I shouted what are they boy or girl
Both, he replied with a smile.
A boy and a girl.
What are their names he said quietly 
obviously leaving their names to me.
I said in gush Angela and Michael jr.
And so it was my BFF  Became Aunty Angie. 
And Michael jr. had the same name as his father.
Born a continent away.
We had eight weeks to get married or Michaels visa expired. 
Three weeks later Michael took me out for the evening. 
Aunty Angie minded the twins on the condition
That  they both agreed to
 no projectile spitting up and no number 
twos
The twins both smiled their affirmation
 but forgot the promise an hour later.

Meanwhile Michael 
took me to a blues bar in the city after a nice dinner.
He had a surprise for me he walked 
to the stage picked up an alto saxaphone
And played If a man loves a woman in pathos
It was beautiful 
I felt my tears well in my eyes. 
I had no idea he could play.
Then a waiter came to me 
with tray adorned in a blue velvet cushion 
a diamond ring on it.
Michael knelt before me
 and said please accept my ring
 as a token of my undying love.
If you will accept it 
it will make me the happiest man on earth.
I thought I have his  twins i am still size fourteen
 and I love him like crazy
I shouted yes yes yes 

Six months later

It was fall in central park
 we walked the twins in their double stroller
 the leaves had turned red and amber 
under the chilling winds of late autumn .
The late fall sunlight lit up the park in reds and golds
against the grey outlines of the old city.
A city that had seen many such love stories.
I see Michael holding the twins in his arms.
 I could see the love for us all in his beautiful eyes.
The same eyes  that had  some major defect.
An aberration that I had no understanding of.
 Because he saw me as beautiful and worthy of his love. 
And in that single moment
There in park on an autumn carpet of rustling leaves.
 I felt him walk in into my heart
 through a door I had always left unlocked for only him.
 As he entered inside me to a place on this earth
 that was destined for him alone.
 I  closed the door quietly behind him.
locking it with the only key that existed.
Then throwing it into the urban  woodlands 
never to be found again.
