She chuckled, “It wouldn’t do you any good. She blocks out anything negative she doesn’t want to hear. I’ve tried several times to get through to her. That bitch isn’t the same woman that loved my father. After he died, she became what she is now .”
Tabitha took a deep breath. “She use to be a wonderful woman. You know she really loved my father until he got sick. Then, she didn’t know what to do with him or us. Selina was younger and she doesn’t look like me. That’s genetics for you .”
I slid closer to her. “I would love it if you told me everything .”
“Really?” she asked in shock .
I nodded. “Really. Let’s forget all about that woman we saw today and tell me about the good times .”
Chapter Thirteen
Tabitha
I chuckled softly. He made it sound so easy to forget about Opal. Yet it was something I’d been trying to do for years and failing at. The night had been no great shock to me. It was nice to see Earl so adamantly on my side now though. It made me reconsider letting him go. I knew he didn’t want a girlfriend and I thought that I didn’t want a relationship either but now, everything was so confusing .
“My father loved her so much. For the longest time they were happy together,” I said with a shrug. “I don’t know that there is much more to tell beyond that .”
“I wish I had trusted you,” he whispered, his hand covering mine and sending chills through my body. “I’m sorry that I doubted you. She had me fooled, just like she has my father fooled .”
“Don’t worry about it,” I said quickly. “I’m sure she loves your father very much. She just can’t stand me. I remind her of my dad .”
“That is no reason for her to treat you like that. Once my father hears about this — ”
“No!” I said quickly. “Please just let it go .”
I hated my mother, but I wasn’t a part of her life anymore. At least with Gary I knew my sister was taken care of. Things between us would never change. There was no point in upsetting the delicate balance that my mother had found. I just wanted to be back in my apartment and forget about the night ever happening. Earl was wonderful, but I was going home alone. I pulled away from him .
“I really do appreciate everything,” I said carefully. “It’s been a long day though, so maybe we can just see each other Monday for the appointment ?”
Earl frowned. “Sure .”
Until that minute, I had no idea how much seeing him upset would bother me. I never wanted to be the reason he was sad. Instantly, my mind changed and I wanted to be with him. I scooted over and let him wrap his arms around me. It felt warm and comforting, like I had finally found someone that I could trust. He had no idea what he was doing to me as he nuzzled my neck. I didn’t care what people thought that we were because it didn’t matter. I just wanted him for one more night .
“Are you sure you don’t want me to come upstairs with you?” he asked after some heavy petting .
I bit my lip. “My apartment isn’t fantastic. I don’t want you to judge me .”
“I promise to never judge you again. Plus, I did two years with ‘doctors without borders.’ Whatever your apartment has to offer, I’m sure I’ve seen worse .”
“I don’t know about that, you did squeal away from here scared the other night .”
Earl laughed, “I wasn’t scared! I mean maybe a little for my car, but this is just a rental, so I’m not worried now .”
“You rented a limo?” I stammered .
He shrugged. “I didn’t want to buy one. It didn’t seem like a very good investment, but I wanted for you to be comfortable .”
“And you thought a limo was the way to go? Maybe next time just listen to me and save us both the headache .”
“I don’t know,” he said with a sly grin as we pulled up to my apartment. “I think things turned out pretty darn good .”
As his hand traveled up my leg, my panties became wet with need. He was driving me insane and I loved every second of it. It was perfect timing. We’d made it back to my apartment and I was emotionally drained. I needed a hard drink and a stiff cock. One of those I had in my apartment and one was holding open the car door for me. I wasn’t ashamed as I unlocked my door and led him inside. I was poor, not a pig. Closing the door behind himself he looked around and nodded .
“I like it here. It’s nothing fancy, but it’s warm. You’ve made it a home,” he said with a grin .
“Well, it’s where I live, so that was the idea,” I said as I fumbled with the zipper on my dress .
I was tired of looking and acting like I really gave a damn about anything beyond myself. My mother had proven that she wouldn’t ever change. I wasn’t after anything from her or her new rich husband and the time that I spent with Earl was a mutual need to have an itch scratched. We were both okay with things the way they were. With a sly grin, I went over to him and turned around .
“Mind giving a girl a hand?” I asked him .
His fingers moved up my back, making me shudder with desire as he pulled the zipper back down. He didn’t stop there as his hands traveled back up my body and pulled apart the dress. It fell into a pool on the floor. I stepped out of it, wearing nothing now but a thong and the sky high black heels. His eyes moved over my body slowly. I wasn’t ashamed of my body, I knew how much he liked it. His cock was already hard, trying to get out of his pants. I was more than happy to help it out .
I pressed my bare breasts that he liked so much against his chest and moved my hand down until it was wrapped around his cock through the pants. His eyes rolled back in his head as he groaned with pleasure. I could only rub it for a few seconds before a pool of moisture started to form on the fabric. Without waiting any longer, I quickly unzipped his pants and reached inside to free his throbbing member. With one hand firmly wrapped around his cock, I turned and headed for the bedroom, leading him with me like a dog on a leash .
He followed me closely, having no other choice. Once we were in the bedroom, he grabbed ahold of my hips, pressing his cock between the cheeks of my ass. I groaned and bent over, giving him more access to my rear and letting my swollen pussy lips poke out of the thin, wet fabric. His fingers trailed down my back until he started to rub my clit through the fabric. I groaned and spread my legs farther apart for him. Earl made me feel so dirty, like a whore who wanted more. I loved every second of it .
Breaking away from me, Earl quickly took off his pants and tugged off his shirt. I bent over to take off the heels, but he stopped me .
“Would you mind leaving them on? They turn me on,” he said as he licked his lips. “A lot .”
I laughed, “Anything you want .”
He cocked his head, but I spoke before he could. I leaned closer to him and took his bottom lip in mine, flicking and suckling on it as his fingers frantically found my nipples to give them a hard squeeze .
“I just mean that I like it when you dominate me. It turns me on when you take control. Of course, I don’t mind being in control, but this,” I said as I grabbed his cock. “This is what I want .”
He chuckled, it was dark and dangerous. It sent a shiver through my body and a flood of moisture to my panties. “Then get over to the bed, I’m going to fuck you until you can’t walk .”
I gasped and did as he asked, running and giving him a good show of my bouncing tits and butt cheeks. Earl appreciated it, by the time he got over to where I was standing, his manhood was already dripping with precum. I licked my lips and quickly laid down on the bed so my head was tilting off the end of it. His cock lined up perfectly with my mouth. I didn’t need to tell him what to do as he drove it into my waiting mouth. He grunted with pleasure and fell forward, his lips finding my swollen core as he ripped away my thong and buried his face in my garden .
Sucking in a sharp gasp, I reached around and grabbed ahold of his cheeks, forcing him forward and taking even more of his huge rod into my mouth. He jerked forward, unable to control himself any longer as I
cupped his balls. With his tongue working my clit mercilessly, the world around me started to slip into blackness. All I could feel was the insane pleasure he brought me and the throbbing shaft buried in my throat. I was going to come soon, he was making sure of that, but I didn’t want to get off until his tasty nectar was shooting down my throat .
With one more long stroke, I felt him grow rigid. Before I could suck him dry and taste the sweetness of his seed, he pulled suddenly away from me. I let out a disappointed gasp. A sly grin crossed his face as he spun me around on the bed and spread my legs apart. He pounced on me like a wild animal, plunging his shaft into my waiting orifice. My body convulsed, stretching to accommodate his large girth as I screamed out his name .
He pulled out of me, teasing me gently with the tip of his cock before burying deep inside of my body again. The sweet torture went on for hours it felt like. Just when I thought I couldn’t take anymore and I would die from pleasure, his rhythm grew steady, increasing in speed slowly before turning into a furious passion again. I wrapped my legs around him, digging my nails into his back as his lips muffled my screams of passion .
My whole body clenched down on his rod as he exploded into my waiting womb. I latched down, bracing myself for the crescendo of euphoria that I knew well was coming. The blinding white light hit me as every nerve in my body vibrated with pleasure. My body contracting around his cock, strumming every chord of pleasure as we clung to each other in a blind moment of unbridled desire .
When we finally fell apart, we were covered in sweat and struggling to breathe. He was so amazing in bed, I never wanted to lose it. Whatever there was between us, it seemed to work. I rolled over and looked at him with a grin. He laughed and turned to face me. Our eyes locked and an unspoken bond danced between us. It didn’t matter if he could admit it or if I could, this was more than just sex and we both knew it .
“I should get going,” he whispered after a while .
I nodded. My feelings for him aside, I still very much enjoyed having my own space. “Okay well, thanks for coming up, I guess .”
Earl grinned. “So can I put you down for nine on Monday ?”
My eyes lit up. “That sounds great! Should I do anything ahead of time ?”
“Nope, this is just the second consultation. It’s mandatory in the practice. We like to make sure everything is perfect before doing a big operation like this. Next week is when it will get started .”
“Oh,” I muttered in disappointment. “Well, I’ve waiting this long I guess one more week won’t kill me .”
“So that’s a yes then to Monday?” he said as he pulled on his jacket .
I grabbed a robe and led him to the front door. “That’s most definitely a ‘yes’ to Monday .”
“Great,” he said as he leaned down closer to me. His eyes danced with emotions. “I can’t wait to see you again .”
I bit my lip and stepped backwards into my apartment as I waved to him. Shutting the door, I leaned back with a real smile on my face for the first time in ages .
Chapter Fourteen
Earl
I pushed the pen on my desk back over a quarter of an inch before quickly jerking my hand away again. I was fidgeting. There was nothing I could do to calm my nerves though. Tabitha would be here any minute and I would get to spend an hour getting to know who she was. It was exciting, but also a little intimidating. She was unlike any woman who’d ever come into my office before. I still couldn’t fathom why she would want to change such a perfect body. Hopefully, today would offer some insight into that .
The door opened and I jumped up, knocking the neat row of pens into disarray. My assistant looked at me like I was insane, but Tabitha just smiled. I’d just seen her two days ago, but it felt like a lifetime to me. She was beauty in a world of imperfection .
“That will be all,” I said to my assistant without looking at her .
I saw the hesitation in her eyes before she clicked out of my office in her high heels and shut the door gently .
“Please, sit,” I said to Tabitha as I took the chair across from her again. “How was your weekend ?”
She shrugged. “Nothing to write home about. I worked a few shifts and had another interview.” Her frown broke my heart as she continued. “Of course I still haven’t heard back from them, but soon that’s all going to change .”
I flicked my fingers together, another nervous habit that I hadn’t done in years. “Tabitha, the purpose of the second appointment is to give the doctor a chance to understand why someone wants to change their appearance .”
“That seems silly, isn’t it their private business?” she asked, looking skeptical .
“Yes and no. We have a duty to turn down patients who might be mentally unstable. Those who get addicted to plastic surgery for instance .”
Tabitha snickered. “Well I can promise you that I’m not addicted. This will be my first time going under the knife. I’ve never even broken a bone before .”
“Good,” I said, unable to fight back a smile. “But I wasn’t really worried about that with you. I just want to make sure this is what you really want. Why is it again you are having this done ?”
She sighed. “Look around you. You are surrounded by the stereotypical perfect woman all day .”
“That’s not true,” I muttered weakly .
Tabitha rolled her eyes. “It’s not just you, okay? Anyone who has a start in New York has had work done. I have a bachelor’s degree in business marketing just like the rest of the women I graduated with. The only difference between us is the fake boobs and employment status .”
“That’s really all this is about?” I asked her, surprised .
“Yeah pretty much. I mean, I’m not unhappy with my breasts, but if adding a little extra means moving out of that apartment then I am happy to do it .”
“Don’t you think that this is an extreme option?” I asked .
“Not really,” she said honestly. “Think about what most people do for money or to get a job. Some graduates spend five years as some jerk’s assistant before getting a shot at anything real. I can’t survive five years without a paycheck .”
“Breasts for money,” I muttered. “How original .”
“Hey!” she said, sounding genuinely offended. “It’s not like this is the first bandwagon I jumped on okay? It’s brutal trying to find work here. I have been interviewing for months and can’t catch a break .”
“I’m sorry,” I said, taking her hand. “That was insensitive of me. I just don’t want to see you do something you’ll regret later on. Have you tried talking to a career advisor ?”
She glared at me, but shook her head. “No. The college offers them to all graduates for a lifetime, but I always thought it was a foolish thing to utilize. What’s the point in going to college for a degree in something and still needing an advisor ?”
“They offer a lot more than that, though. They could help you with interview techniques, maybe a new way to present yourself ?”
Tabitha blushed and looked away from me, tugging down on the worn pantsuit she was wearing. Her clothes weren’t ratty, but they were old. A fresh look could mean the difference between a second interview and rejection. I didn’t want to hurt her feelings, I wanted to help her in every way possible. My hand was practically itching to pull her close and tell her she would never have to worry about money again .
“Listen,” I told her as I tried to keep my head on straight. “This conversation doesn’t change anything okay? We are still scheduling the surgery for next Tuesday. Everyone that has work done has to go through this process .”
“I don’t like it,” she muttered. “It makes you feel like shit .”
My heart fluttered as she smiled. I grinned back. “We just have to be sure that you are doing it for the right reasons. If having this surgery will give you the confidence you need to go out and tackle the world then so be it .”
“Would you do it?” she asked softly. “If you were
in my shoes ?”
“I would be lying on the floor in a ball,” I joked. “I can’t walk in heels .”
Tabitha rolled her eyes at the corny joke. “Seriously, Earl. I don’t know what to do .”
“Take some time and think about it,” I told her. “If you change your mind then just call and let me know and I’ll cancel the surgery. I think that you are absolutely breathtaking just the way you are. This isn’t about me though, it’s about you. Do what you think is best .”
“Thank you,” she said softly .
I couldn’t stop myself from brushing a stray hair off her cheek and tucking it behind her ear. She raised her hand and covered mine, pressing the palm gently to her lips. In an instant my body was ignited with the flames of desire. I sucked in a sharp breath, the instant passion came as a shock to me .
“Tabitha,” I whispered .
She grinned and kissed my wrist, moving further up my body until her lips parted against my ear and her tongue flicked at the lobe. Gently biting down, she moaned into my ear and I came undone. The building could be burning and it couldn’t compare to the horny sex addict that Tabitha turned me into. I was about to lift her onto my lap when an incessant banging on the door broke us apart. I straightened my shirt, flustered and enraged .
“What?” I yelled .
The door opened just as Tabitha buttoned her top and nodded at me. We both turned to look at Mary. Her quizzical gaze went back and forth between the two of us before finally landing on me. She knew what she had just walked in on and it apparently bothered her to no end. I was fairly amused to see the blush in her cheeks as she struggled to control her disdain .
“You’re ten o’clock is here, sir. Should I keep her in the waiting room a little longer?” she spat out. “While you finish up here?” Her eyes flickered over to Tabitha .
“No!” I said quickly .
