Powerball Ch. 02

A little after five, the phone rang and I saw that it was the daycare center.

"Hi sis," I said picking up.

"Hey, baby brother, just wanted to let you know we would be headed home in a few minutes," said Mel.

"Alright, sis, see you in a little while."

I then went to the kitchen and started the sauce and put the noodles on. I was fixing spaghetti. I figured Lisa would like that, all kids liked spaghetti. Just as everything was finished I heard Mel's car pull up. A minute later the door opened I heard the chatter of females coming in.

"I'm in here," I called out from the kitchen.

I heard the pitter patter of little feet running towards me and turned just in time to catch my nieces as they jumped on me. Giving each a quick kiss I looked over to see Lisa shyly standing there watching. "Hey, sweetie, how was your first day of school?"

Lisa perked up at that question. "Oh Mr. Mike, it was so much fun. Jeanie took me around and I got to meet all her friends and they were so nice. I'm going to really like going to this school. And then I got to ride the bus with Jeanie and Missy to the daycare. And then mama told me...."

When she said that Jeanie and Missy quickly said, "Shhh, it's a secret, remember."

"Oh yeah, but I did have a lot of fun," ended Lisa.

I looked over to where my sister and Beth had come into the kitchen. Beth had a stoic look on her face and Mel just smiled at me.

"C'mon girls," said Mel. "Your father will be home soon, let's go get dinner ready."

"Okay," chimed both girls in unison. I stooped and got my usual departing kiss on the cheek. Then they ran over to Lisa and hugged her. "See you tomorrow, Lisa."

As they ran off to get in the car I told Mel I would walk her out and then told Beth and Lisa that dinner was ready if they wanted to wash up. I then followed Mel outside. When we had reached her car I asked her, "What's all this about a secret?"

"Don't worry Mike, if you are nice, Beth will tell you."

"Oh I see how you are. You won't keep secrets from George but your brother doesn't rate."

"Ah, little brother, this isn't a secret about us I'm keeping from you. It's Beth's secret."

"Yeah, what ever," I responded but with smile on my face. I bent and kissed my sister on the cheek and returned to the house.

Beth, Lisa and I arrived back at the kitchen at the same time. "Do you like spaghetti, Lisa?" I asked.

Oh yeah, Mr. Mike, I sure do," she said.

"Then if you ladies will have a seat I will bring it to the table." I had already set the table so as Beth and Lisa took their seats I took the noodles and drained them in a colander and put them in a large bowl. I then poured the sauce into another bowl and carried both to the table. Lastly I brought us all something to drink and took my place at the table. Beth fixed a plate for Lisa then helped herself and then I did likewise. We ate in silence for a while until Lisa couldn't take it any longer.

"Mama, aren't you gonna tell Mr. Mike the secret?" she finally blurted out.

I looked over at Beth expectantly. She looked down at her plate. "I got a job today, Mike. I am going to be working for your sister at the day care center," she said.

"Isn't that good, Mr. Mike?" chirped Lisa.

This was totally unexpected.

"Yes, that is very good. Congratulations Beth," I answered.

Beth looked up at me quizzically, "Thank you Michael." She could see the surprise in my face and knew Mel had told her the truth that I knew nothing about this.

The rest of dinner passed with lively banter about Lisa's first day at school. Beth helped me clean the kitchen with little said between us while Lisa went to the game room to watch tv. Once we were through, Beth and I went to join Lisa. I sat in my recliner watching the Disney channel with Lisa while Beth sat on the couch reading.

At nine Beth rose and told Lisa they needed to get ready for bed. Lisa got up and said,

"Okay, mama. Good-night, Mr. Mike."

"Good night, honey. Sweet dreams. Good-night, Beth."

"Good night, Mike," Beth said leaving the room.

After they left I switched the TV back to CNN and sat staring at the screen. I thought about the events of the day. Lisa starting to school and Beth getting a job. It was a big day for both of them. And even though I hadn't seen much of Beth today I couldn't deny that I felt a stirring when I did look at her. 'Dammit man you can't let her get to you. You'll just get your heart broken again.' I turned the TV off and headed for bed whispering 'good night' as I passed their door.

The next morning I was up early as usual. This morning I again decided to forgo my morning run and went to the kitchen to fix breakfast for the new school girl and working woman. Beth was obviously surprised when she walked into the kitchen and saw me dishing up their plates. I put their plates on the table and turned back and brought Beth a cup of coffee and Lisa a glass of milk. My sister had told me she would swing by this morning and pick up Beth and Lisa so I didn't have to worry about taking them in. I wished both ladies a nice day and took off for my morning run telling Beth to leave the dishes and I would clean up when I got back. Of course when I got back I found the kitchen spotless and the house empty. Mel had already been by and had picked up Beth and Lisa.

I came in and decided to have a bowl of cereal. While I ate I thought about Beth and Lisa needing transportation. Even though it wasn't that far, I didn't want my sister to have to have be the designated driver every day. I finished eating, went upstairs and got ready to go out. An hour later I was walking around a car lot looking. It was the same lot I had bought my truck from. The salesman that had sold me my truck saw me and came out to greet me. He wanted to know if there was anything wrong with my truck. I told him no, but I would like to find a nice used car for someone special. I gave him a look to let him know that I expected not to get screwed. An hour later I had made my purchase and arranged to have it delivered. Satisfied, I went back home.

Around three that afternoon the car was delivered and I told them to park it in the driveway where Beth would see it when she got back. I went back into the house thinking about how well things were going. Lisa was in school and Beth had a job and now a car. I would give her the keys to when she got home. I was actually quite pleased with my self.

A couple hours later I saw Mel's car pulling up and went out to greet them. As my sister got out she noted the car in the driveway. "Who's car is that Mike? Do you have visitors?"

"No, no visitors. I realized that Beth and Lisa were going to need transportation so I bought it this morning for Beth."

I looked over to where Beth was standing. Her mouth gaped open and she looked at me flabbergasted. "Mike, you shouldn't have. You are already doing so much for us."

"Beth, think about it. You're working now and Lisa is in school. Do you really want to have to rely on someone else to always take you where you need to go?" I asked her.

"Well, no," she replied. "Thank you Michael."

I handed her a set of keys and asked her if she wanted to take it for a spin. Lisa thought that was a good idea and grabbed her mothers hand dragging her along.

As they drove off my sister turned to me, "You're a good man, baby brother."

"Aw shucks," I said. "I'm just being practical."

My sister just gave me a big smile and stood on her tip toes and kissed my cheek. She and her girls then left to go home. I went back into the house to wait for Beth and Lisa to return.

As we ate dinner that night Lisa and Beth talked about their new car. I could see they were both excited to know they had a way to get around without having to depend on me or Mel. After dinner and cleaning up the kitchen, Beth and I again joined Lisa in the game room, me in my chair, Beth on the couch with a magazine. I glanced over at Beth a couple times catching her looking at me but she would immediately drop her eyes back to her magazine. I couldn't stop the queasy feeling I got in my stomach when for that split second our eyes would meet. I tried to concentrate on watching the tv screen but as if they had a will of their own my eyes would glance over at Beth. Finally nine o'clock came and Beth and Lisa went to bed.

------------------------------------Beth

After putting Lisa to bed, Beth laid there thinking about how her life had taken such an abrupt change. Homeless one day, and now living in a beautiful house, a job, a car and her daughter in a good school. Then she though about Mike. The times he had glanced over at her and their eyes met had set off butterflies in her stomach. She was so confused. After all she had been through how could she now be having feelings like that. Still thinking about Mike she drifted off to sleep.

-------------------------------------Mike

I woke up the next morning and I got to the kitchen and found Beth already there fixing breakfast. I could see she was excited. She could hardly wait to drive Lisa to school and herself to work in her new car. While we were eating I told Beth that this was the weekend I watched my nieces so her parents could have some alone time. At the mention of 'alone time' I noticed Beth's cheeks flush slightly. Lisa on the other got very excited.

"You mean Jeanie and Missy are going to spend the night?" she asked anxiously.

"Yep, that's what I mean. They will spend tonight and tomorrow night here," I told her.

"Yippee," yelled Lisa.

My sister had called to ask if I still wanted to have the girls come over as planned and I assured her I did. I told her I was sure Lisa would love to have a slumber party, and that Beth would probably enjoy being part of a 'girls' night.

When they returned that afternoon I was greeted by excited girls. I could tell they were going to have fun being together. Even Beth seemed to be in a good mood. I grilled up some of my world famous burgers then after dinner excused myself to go upstairs telling the girls that they could have an all girls party. From my office where I sat playing games on my computer, I could hear the squeals and laughter of girls having fun. I even heard Beth laughing enjoying herself. This brought a smile to my face. It was good to know she was having fun enjoying the company of the young girls.

I asked the girls the next morning at breakfast if they had fun last night and was answered with big grins and vigorously nodded heads. After breakfast the girls went outside to play with the dogs. Beth and I cleaned the kitchen and then went out on the deck to watch the kids play. We didn't talk much but again found ourselves occasionally stealing glances at each other. After a while I thought Beth might want some time alone so I excused myself and went to the game room and watched some TV. Around noon the silence was broken by the stampede of little feet rushing in.

"Uncle Mike," we're hungry said Missy crawling into my lap.

I knew with all their running outdoors they had built up an appetite. "You are?" I asked.

"And just what do you think I should do about that?"

"Feed us," exclaimed Missy hugging my neck.

Chuckling I rose tossing Missy over my shoulder and headed for the kitchen. "Okay, come on you three lets go make lunch."

We decided sandwiches and chips would do. Beth helped me fix everything. As we were finishing lunch Jeanie asked me, "Uncle Mike, can we go swimming in your pool, please?"

"I think that will be fine. It's plenty warm today," I said. "Lisa do you have a swimsuit."

"Oh yeah, Mr. Mike. Me and mama bought new ones when we went shopping. Put yours on too mama and come swim with us."

Beth looked flustered and blushed. I could tell she wasn't sure about parading around in a swimsuit in front of me. I asked her, "You can swim I assume Beth?"

She looked at me and nodded, so I said, "Well I got some business that I need to take care of in my office, so I was wondering if you would mind going with the girls and keeping an eye on them?"

"Yes, I guess so," she replied.

There wasn't much to clean up so I told them all to change and I would take care of the kitchen. Just as I finished the girls came out with towels in hand headed for the pool. Beth had put on a cover up and though I couldn't see much it only came half way down her thighs. As she walked by I couldn't help but notice she had great legs. So while the girls went out to have fun in the water I went upstairs and messed around on the computer. I could hear the girls laughing and carrying on through the window. After about forty five minutes I went out on to the second story deck I had that overlooked the back yard and the pool. Just as I stepped out I saw Beth getting out of the pool to walk over to one of the loungers. She was wearing a rather modest one piece yellow suit but with a nice French cut. I made her legs appear to go on for ever. I had not seen her with so little on before. I could tell she had nice size breasts. Not overly large nor too small, just right. As she walked the water streamed down her body. Damn she was a sight to behold. She reached the chair took a towel and wiped some of the water off before sitting back in the chair. She reached down and picked up a bottle of sun lotion and began to apply it to her legs.

Suddenly I looked down at the front of my pants and saw my now rock hard cock had caused them to seriously tent out. Embarrassed, I quickly stepped back off the deck into the house. I had not been with a woman in over two years and the sight of Beth had me as horny as a dog smelling a bitch in heat. I had to seek relief. I went to my bathroom started the shower and stepped in. Reaching for the soap I coated my straining cock and began to stroke closing my eyes recalling Beth walking across the deck, water streaming down her body, her long legs, her perfectly sized tits. Oh God, I was cumming. My semen shot from my enraged cock like a missile launching, shooting all the way across the shower to splatter on the far wall. As the heat of the moment dissipated, I let the water cascaded down my body as my hand continued to stroke my still half hard cock.

I was embarrassed at not being able to contain my carnal lust for this beautiful woman who shared my home. There were two things I was sure of, I could never let her know how I felt, and I could no longer deny to myself that I desired her. I knew that with her distrust of men she would not have feelings for me. No, if she even suspected she would take her daughter and run leaving me to know I had violated the little bit of trust she had put in me.

I exited the shower and dressed and remained in my office until dinner time. I joined the girls to eat but tried my best to not look at Beth. I was afraid she would see my guilt for having lusted after her. Once again I excused myself telling the girls to continue on with their slumber party and hastily retreated to my room. I went to bed early that night but as the image of her body went through my mind my cock hardened again. Once more I stroked myself to a raging orgasm knowing I would never sleep otherwise.

Sunday morning I woke early and put on my jogging suit and went for a long run. I was hoping a good work out would help take the edge off the feelings that had overwhelmed me yesterday. The girls were just finishing breakfast when I returned and told me they had saved me a plate. I thanked them and told them I would be down to eat after I showered. Twenty minutes later I was having breakfast alone while the girls went to the game room to play video games. After I had finished I went to the game room to watch the girls have fun. At first everything was fine, I was enjoying watching the girls interact. Not into the computer games Beth was sitting on the couch as usual reading. Occasionally I would steal a glance at her. She had put on a new sun dress this morning and I couldn't help but look at her lower legs. As I did images of her in her swimsuit came back and despite my best efforts I could feel my cock begin to stiffen. Not wanting to embarrass myself I mumbled something about the bathroom and hurried upstairs

Once safely behind the closed door of my bedroom I dropped my pants and laid on my bed and again stroked my raging member to another massive orgasm.

--------------------------------Beth

Beth was sitting on the couch reading when Mike came into the game room. As usual Mike sat in his recliner. She could see he was enjoying watching the antics of the girls as they played their games. She couldn't help but to occasionally steal furtive glances at Mike. She couldn't help but be annoyed with herself as she thought how handsome he really was. Mike had put on a tight tee shirt after his shower and she could tell he had a muscular build. Not too big like an overblown body builder but just right. She could tell his arms were strong and then suddenly wondered what they would feel like around her holding her tight.

Beth was wondering what was wrong with her. She shouldn't be having these thoughts. She tried to immerse herself in the article she was reading but the next time she looked up she swore she saw Mike looking at her legs. Then suddenly he stood mumbling something and hurried out of the room. Unbidden her eyes swept down to the front of his pants. She gasped silently. Oh my god, that bulge. Was he getting a hard on looking at my legs. At the thought of his cock she couldn't help but feel her body betray her as her pussy began to moisten. She tried to put the thought out her mind. She tried to read her magazine. Again the thought of his cock came back, this time thinking of it hard and pulsing. Her pussy was fully wet now. She had to do something before it soaked into her dress.

Beth stood and told the girls she was going to take a bath and stay here. The girls just nodded and went back to their game. Beth hurried to her room locking the door behind her and then into the bathroom locking that door to. She quickly filled the tub and stripped her clothes off and slid into the water. She tried to calm her mind but her hand strayed to her breasts and she couldn't help but moan as she grazed her nipples. 'Mike's cock', again the thought of him. 'Mike's cock hard and throbbing.' One hand rubbing her nipples, the other crept down between her legs. Another moan as her finger found her pulsing clit. She began to rub her pussy and stroke her clit. 'Mike's big hard pulsing cock poised between her legs ready to push in.' Her left hand left her breasts and joined the right hand at her pussy. 'Mikes big cock shoving into my pussy.' At that thought she began thrusting two fingers of her left hand in and out of her pussy while she vigorously rubbed her clit with her right hand. Her orgasm was sudden and strong causing her body to arch out the water and shudder violently. "Yes, Mike, fuck me fuck me ," she moaned.

Beth almost passed out from the power of her orgasm. As the shuddering came to an end her body sagged limply back into the water. She just lay there dazed for several minutes. But, when her mind began to clear, like Mike had, she felt guilty and embarrassed at what she had done. There was no denying now that she felt an attraction for Mike. But she couldn't let him know. Mel had told her he couldn't trust

women. She knew despite the fact that maybe he had been turned on by her legs, it was nothing more than physical for him. He wouldn't really care about her. She slipped from the bath and began to dress. Even as she was berating herself for her lack of self control she couldn't help but snicker at what a release it was.

--------------------------Mike

As I came down from high of my orgasm I rose from my bed and looked at mess I made. I had sprayed quite a bit of cum. Much of it had landed on my legs and chest but some had hit the bedspread. I went to the bathroom and returned with a damp was cloth and wiped what I could from the bed, then I stripped my tee shirt and used it to wipe my legs. I threw the tee shirt into the hamper and went to my drawer and pulled out another of almost the same color. Hopefully no one would notice. I then splashed my face with water and went back downstairs. I was a little surprised to see that Beth was no longer in the room. I guess she had to use the rest room or something. Little did I know that at that very moment she was thrusting two fingers into her pussy moaning for me to fuck her. If I had of my cock would once again been straining for release.
