In Pursuit of a Love Connection

by Shanika Patrice

  While in the bathroom, Gabby decided to shower. She was going to make her morning entrance greeting Lamont with nothing but a towel, makeup applied to give her a natural look as much as possible, with a bit of lip balm. All Gabby had to do was put on the dress she had already picked out for today and pin up her hair to switch up the look of her bob haircut.

  As she stepped back out into the main room she wondered what Lamont’s reaction would be, but he was nowhere to be found.

  The bed had been made up and the television was blasting. Gabby decided to take this time to hurry up and get dressed because she had been a little nervous thinking about dressing in front of Lamont, especially after his comment about her size, but she planned on conquering this fear.

  She recalled that Lamont had mentioned in earlier conversations how he liked women who were confident in their looks and bodies, and saw no need for her excusing herself to undress and get naked in front of him. Gabby grabbed her undies and dress to quickly put them on before he came back to the room, and then decided to apply her deodorant and smell goods.

  Lamont’s timing was perfect, because by the time he made it back to the room, Gabby was fully dressed and ready to begin the day.

  “Well good morning, beautiful!” Lamont as he entered the room with a tray of fruit, muffins, yogurt, juice and other breakfast items to choose from for the both of them. “I was hoping to surprise you with this before you came out the bathroom but you move fast, girl. I like that!”

  “Good morning to you, and thanks for the breakfast. This is a surprise,” Gabby responded as she stood up to meet him halfway.

  After he sat the tray down on the table next to the television, Lamont leaned down to give Gabby a quick peck on the lips.

  “Help yourself. While you eat, I’ll go get dressed so we can start our day.”

  As Gabby grabbed a few items from the tray and sat down at the dining table, she noticed that Lamont meant what he said about undressing in front of one another. Lamont had undressed again, down to his bare ass, bending over and gathering his toiletries.

  Ass crack and balls all in my face while I’m trying to eat, Gabby thought to herself as she tried to focus on the television and the cartoons Lamont had playing.

  Again, something was rubbing her the wrong way, but she ignored it and went with the flow. It didn’t take long for Lamont to finish getting dressed, and shortly he had joined her to have a quick bite of some cereal and fruit before they prepared to leave the hotel.

  Lamont drove them around in his car since she was visiting his town. Their first stop was to his grandmother’s house where she had a chance to meet the woman whom she had learned was the closest to Lamont’s heart.

  Grandma Lamont was very polite to Gabby, but she could tell that his grandmother was one who needed more time to get to know someone before she opened up to you. While Gabby sat in the living room waiting for Lamont to help his grandmother in the kitchen, she overheard Lamont’s grandmother make a comment about when he was “coming home.”

  Does he live here? Gabby didn’t have a problem if he lived with his grandmother or not, but it was the fact that he lied and specifically said he had his own place. When they left about 20 minutes later, Gabby decided she would speak up about this immediately and see what Lamont’s response would be.

  “So, babe, I could have sworn that you told me that you had your own place. I overheard your grandmother ask when you’d be returning home.”

  “Umm yea, well that is my home. My grandmother gave me the house, but then when she got sick I had her move back in with me so I could help take care of her. She’s doing much better, but it’s my grandmother and it was once her house—I can’t kick her out.”

  “No, babe,” Gabby responded, internally skeptical over the validity of his story. “I’m not suggesting that at all. I was just wondering what that was about because I knew you told me you had your own place. You never told me she was staying with you.”

  “Oh, I’m sorry if it came across shady like that. My bad, baby,” Lamont said as he rubbed her leg.

  Within 10 more minutes, they pulled up to another house that Lamont announced was the home of his mother. Gabby recalled that Lamont’s relationship with his mother was a work in progress, but they had gotten quite close most recently. He never went into much detail, but Lamont did let on that when he was growing up his mother had a dependency on drugs. She, within recent years in his adulthood, was clean and trying to work things out with him and try to become a mother to him again.

  As soon as Gabby got out of the car, Lamont’s mother ran out of the house, obviously expecting them. She seemed very excited and ran up to hug Gabby first before she acknowledged her son.

  “So this is her, huh, son? Beautiful! Just call me Yvonne.”

  “Thank you, and it’s a pleasure to meet you, Yvonne.”

  Yvonne then hugged Lamont before leading them into her home, where she rushed off to get them drinks before sitting down to catch up with Lamont and ask Gabby about her visit to Michigan. Unlike Lamont’s grandmother, his mother was a bit more engaging and seemed interested in learning more about her. Gabby felt good that she had seemed to pass the “meeting the mom” test, although she knew that Lamont seemed to consider his grandmother to be more of a mom than anything.

  Gabby wasn’t worried about that, though. She was still trying to figure out if Lamont passed her test, even if he was already introducing her to family.

  Their next stop was to Pretty Floyd’s house, his best friend. In person, Floyd was very handsome, and in fact a pretty boy as his nickname described, but he was definitely unlike what she imagined. Gabby was surprised to find that Lamont’s best friend was very laidback and polite. He didn’t come across as if he thought he was too handsome for his own good, and listening to him talk, he seemed very intelligent.

  “I can’t wait to tell my girl, Laverne, that I met you. She’s really looking forward to meeting you,” Gabby told Floyd as her and Lamont prepared to leave about 45 minutes later.

  “Well after meeting the beautiful Gabrielle and seeing the effect you have on my boy here, I am looking forward to meeting her too,” Floyd said as he reached for Gabby’s hand and gave it a light kiss.

  “That’s enough of that,” Lamont said as he jokingly pushed his friend aside. “He’s trying to put on that Pretty Floyd charm.”

  They all laughed as they prepared to leave. Gabby also had to let Laverne know that Floyd was definitely living nice, evident in the house he resided in, but nothing in comparison to what she thought a pimp’s house may look like. That was a good thing.

  The next stop on the itinerary was the mall, which Lamont suggested after Gabby had mentioned she wanted to check out the local or closest mall before she left Michigan.

  “Don’t you think Floyd looks just like Snoop Dogg?” Lamont asked with a chuckle as they pulled away from Floyd’s house. “That’s my boy.”

  “No, not at all! Don’t get me wrong, Snoop is appealing in his own way but they don’t look anything alike. I think Floyd looks like that comedian, though, that was in Snoop Dogg’s movie.”

  “Who?” Lamont quizzed her.

  “What’s his name? Ricky something…Ricky Harris?” Gabby asked back.

  “You know what, Floyd does look like that nigga! Good call. I can’t wait to tell him you said that shit because that is so true.” They both laughed about the similarities in their features.

  They made it to the mall within minutes, and spent the next couple of hours walking through the mall holding hands and stopping in stores of interest to them. Gabby enjoyed the public display of affection from Lamont, something that was new to her since in her other relationships that never seemed to occur.

  Their visit to the mall gave Gabby an idea of the things that Lamont liked and the things that got him excited. Actually, the whole day showed Gabby a new side to Lamont that she did not see at all yesterday, and she was thrilled that things were going so well.

&nbs
p; Gabby had picked up a few items in her favorite clothing store while Lamont patiently sat and watched her model them. By the time they finished and were heading out, they were both ready for dinner.

  “I’m starving, babe. This day has been so awesome, so I can’t wait to see what you have in store for dinner,” Gabby excitedly grabbed his arm as they headed to the car.

  “Well, I had a couple of ideas, but I have to admit I’m a little worn out myself and would love to just get your sexy ass back to that room and enjoy you a little more. Would you have a problem with us grabbing some more takeout and spending our last night inside again?” Lamont asked Gabby as he placed her bags in the backseat.

  “That’s cool. To tell you the truth, I’m a little tired myself, so that works.”

  As they got in the car and Lamont started up the car, Gabby’s mind could not help but go back to the fact that she and Lamont did not do half the things he claimed they would upon her first visit. Still, Gabby was thrilled for getting the time to get to know Lamont more and also getting the chance to meet the most important people in his life. That spoke volumes about his feelings for her, she told herself, even in this short amount of time of coming together.

  For dinner, Lamont wanted Gabby to try one of his favorite pizza places, so he took Gabby back to the hotel while he went to pick up the food. Within half an hour Lamont had returned with the food and they enjoyed the rest of the evening watching more movies, eating good food and enjoying each other’s company.

  Gabby definitely noticed a difference as compared to the previous night. She began to feel bad and thought that maybe she had misjudged Lamont, not having considered that maybe he was nervous upon their first meeting and how that could have contributed to the off comments he made. Tonight he was the complete opposite, and Gabby was enjoying this change in him.

  Gabby wondered if maybe the sex would be different tonight as well, considering that they were both nervous that first night. Before she realized it, though, she had dozed off on the second movie they started and woke up to find that Lamont had fallen asleep as well.

  The clock said 3:18 am.

  Damn, I have to make sure I get some before I hit the road in the morning, Gabby thought to herself before she got up to put on her nightie and wash off her makeup.

  She did indeed “get some”, but not the way that she had imagined. Gabby awoke a few hours later to Lamont fingering her from the back. As she appeared to be awaking out of her sleep, he started kissing and licking her on the back of her neck while he rubbed his erect penis against her backside.

  Before it was clear to her what was going on, Lamont had entered her from the back, again taking her by surprise and causing her to moan out first in pain, and then in pleasure. The louder her moans got, the faster Lamont moved in and out of her. He suddenly moved Gabby on to her stomach while still inside of her and weighing her down with his weight. The growling and utterings began again as he grabbed the headboard of the bed with one hand, and continued pounding in and out of her.

  “Damn, you got some good pussy! You feel that, girl?”

  “Yes, I do. Shit!”

  Gabby still thought the sex was a little more rough than necessary, especially considering Lamont’s dick size and his insensitivity to being gentle with her; but she had to admit the whole action of waking up to this was a turn on for her. She found herself enjoying it and moving along in rhythm with Lamont. Finally, Lamont announced he was about to come and within seconds he made it known that he did with the same loud noise he made the night before.

  “Ahhhh!”

  Again, just like before, Lamont fell out on top of her and stayed limp inside her falling asleep again. Gabby was so exhausted that she didn’t mind, and eventually fell back fast asleep herself.

  A couple more hours later, Gabby had to get up and start getting ready for her trip home. This time around, Lamont beat her to the restroom that morning, and was dressed with breakfast waiting, again, by the time she rose out of bed.

  Lamont greeted her with a passionate kiss, which she was a little hesitant about since she still had morning breath, but that did not seem to be a concern to him.

  Gabby rushed to get dressed so she could join Lamont for a quick breakfast together before she had to leave. When it was time to go, Lamont carried her bag out to the car for her, slowly walking Gabby to her car. It was obvious he was not ready for her to leave, and Gabby had to admit that she wasn’t ready to part ways, either, mainly because she was curious to know when she’d see Lamont again.

  Before Gabby got inside on her driver’s side, Lamont pulled her into his arms for a hug and another kiss that turned into a deep, passionate tongue kiss that could have went on forever if Gabby had let it.

  “Let me let you go, although I don’t want you to,” Lamont said before quickly throwing in another quick peck on the lips and backing away waving.

  “I’ll call when I make it home, OK?” Gabby said before smiling and getting inside her car.

  She started up the ignition and pulled out of the parking lot, waving goodbye to Lamont as he stood smiling and watching her leave.

  As Gabby hit the highway and reminisced on her first visit with Lamont, she did not imagine that she would be back again the following month visiting him.

  3. The Second Visit

  Again, he had another excuse for not being able to get to Ohio to visit her. Gabby was ashamed to have to tell her loved ones that he wasn’t showing up as planned, again, which made her a little bitter and upset with him for not sticking to his end of the bargain, which was coming to see her and meeting her loved ones. She started to feel like she was the one pursuing when she should have been the one being pursued.

  The next visit, though, ended up being the worst.

  The weather was terrible that day, with rain showers and dark clouds for the majority of her drive to Michigan. This was a bummer for Gabby since she was nervous driving in heavy rain. On top of that, Lamont told her that he was short on money and would not be able to treat her out like before. He brought this up as she was on her way heading there to meet him in Michigan. Gabby was pissed; what if she hadn’t had extra money on her? She had driven almost half of the route before he made her aware of this. Still, Gabby tried to remain calm, but she was slowly starting to find herself questioning this whole relationship with Lamont and his reliability.

  When she arrived to the hotel this time, Lamont was there in the room, waiting for her with the room lit up with candles he had brought to make the room more romantic. This gesture softened Gabby’s heart, and she started to feel bad for even second-guessing her and Lamont’s relationship.

  Before she could even get in the room good, Lamont had led her to the bed, directing her to lie on her back immediately. Gabby had fortunately worn an above-the-knee skirt with a split, which gave Lamont easy access to feeling up between her legs and easing his fingers past her lace panties into her vagina.

  The suddenness of all of this was turning Gabby on as she waited in anticipation of Lamont finally going down on her and fulfilling her oral fantasies, as he had been promising from the beginning. After a few seconds of Lamont penetrating her with his fingers while slowly licking and kissing up her legs, he finally pulled her panties down past her ankles and tossed them across the room.

  “You ready for me to eat your pussy?” Lamont asked as he went back to using his digits to finger fuck her.

  “I’ve been ready!” Gabby quickly responded.

  She finally felt his tongue entering her wet pussy and taking over from where his fingers left off. As he used his tongue and lips to tease her moist love, he extended his hands up under her shirt to fondle both of her breasts, lightly squeezing them and pinching the nipples through her lace bra. The deeper his tongue reached inside her, the tighter his grip became on her breasts, which had her more aroused than ever.

  Gabby had to admit that his pussy-eating skills were the best she had experienced. She found herself grabbing a pillow and
putting it to her mouth to stifle the scream that was coming from her.

  As soon as she was about to come, though, Lamont suddenly stopped.

  Shit! What is he doing, Gabby thought to herself as she watched him stand up and pull his pants and briefs down in what seemed like one swoop.

  Lamont stared at her as he grabbed his erect dick, which appeared to be as hard as a rock. The way it bounced and hit up between her legs as Lamont positioned himself to enter her made her kind of forget her frustration with him interrupting her from climaxing; she was ready to feel him inside of her, but she remembered the previous time he penetrated her and how rough he could get.

  “Lamont baby, take your time…we got all night,” she said to him…before he began to forcefully enter her in his usual style.

  “Yeah, I know, baby but you get me so excited. I’m ready to get some of that sweet pussy,” Lamont responded, appearing to still be a little eager even though he slowed his pace a little.

  “And where’s the condom?”

  “Oh shit, I guess I am moving a little fast, huh?”

  “Yeah…” Gabby said, thinking he knew what he was doing. Did he really think I was about to let him enter me raw, she thought.

  Lamont got up to quickly grab a condom out of his pants pocket. He was still as erect as when they got started, so seconds later he was back in between Gabby’s legs, entering her as she wrapped her legs around his back. As he moved in and out of her, he forced his tongue into her mouth, searching for her tongue in return.

  This time, although still a little rough, it was much better and more pleasurable to Gabby. Apparently with Lamont’s size the experience would always be a tad bit painful getting started, but as their rhythm continued the better it felt to her as she expanded to fit Lamont’s thickness and length. Gabby found herself finishing her orgasm, which luckily came right in the nick of time as Lamont was headed there as well.
