Mrs R (Mrs R & Mr V #1)

by Jessie Courts

  Jess and Lucy had both flirted like mad with him at first but he wouldn’t choose one over the other despite their best efforts and so they settled for being best friends. No longer chubby at 22, but still quite mischievous, Luc was never short of female attention and happily screwed his way through the army of girls willing to give it up for a pretty face. He never promised anything and made it clear he didn’t do second dates, preferring the twins for company. He’d enjoyed a gap year and was now studying for finals in Economics, but he always made time for Lucy and Jess.

  Rachel pulled the robe she had hurriedly thrown on tightly around her and looked across the driveway where the twins had abandoned Luc to sort out their luggage. Expecting to see an older version of the boy she remembered, Rachel was rather taken aback to note that the half of Luc not stuck in the boot of the twins’ cream Mini cooper was certainly not chubby.

  Cocking her head, she observed the impossibly long, denim clad legs and nicely taut butt, and as he unfolded himself upright her breath hitched as his white t shirt rode up slightly in the front offering a tantalising glimpse of happy trail. Heaving the cases out of the boot, Luc’s stomach muscles tightened and his biceps bulged – the tight white t-shirt doing everything to define each fluid movement deliciously. Without thinking Rachel began chewing on her bottom lip defying herself not to look up, even ravaged in grief she could not deny herself the pure pleasure of watching the boy-man-god striding towards her. She idly wondered how on earth he had been comfortable in that little car all the way down from Leeds.

  “Oh my god you have got to be kidding” thought Rachel as he got nearer. Her pulse quickened and a slow flush crept up her cheeks.

  He had the most beautiful face she had ever seen on a man. His chiselled jaw was lightly covered in blond stubble matching the hair that flopped into his eyes as he moved. With a flick of his gorgeous head his fringe shifted to reveal piercing blue eyes, but it was his smile that completely undid her. Soft, full lips parted to show even white teeth and the hint of a dimple in both cheeks.

  Rooted to the spot Rachel just gaped.

  “Pleased to see you again, Mrs Renton.”

  She was sure Luc was speaking to her but she couldn’t hear anything. She was totally distracted by his appearance; at how very tall he was and how blue his eyes were up close. He didn’t seem to mind that the veins in his arms were bulging under the weight of the luggage he was holding stretching the sleeves of his t-shirt tight over his biceps; clinging wickedly to his pecs. He looked like a modern day Achilles carved out of marble for the viewing pleasure of the female population at large.

  “Holy shit!” Rachel cursed under her breath, fisting her hands that suddenly itched to reach out and stroke his golden skin.

  Distress and humiliation slammed through her causing her to turn on her heel and charge a retreat back up the stairs to the safety of her bedroom. The guilt of betrayal made her feel physically sick and she started to sob into her duvet in despair.

  “How could I?” screamed Rachel in her mind. How could one brief glance at another man make her forget what she had with Nate and what she had lost so brutally? Rachel knew she was being hard on herself – she was only human after all and Luc was undeniably gorgeous but not only was she old enough to be his mother; she knew his mother; and she was a grieving widow.

  A loud banging broke through her torment.

  “Mum! For fuck’s sake Mum…I’m coming in…”

  Jess stormed through the door and over to the bed where Rachel snapped at her again.

  “What were you thinking Jess, bringing someone like that into our home. He’s, he’s…….I don’t want him here. I don’t want anyone here. What I want is Daddy here.….I’m not ready for guests, look at me I’m pathetic.”

  Rachel realised to her horror that she was rambling senselessly at her child. There was no reason for her to fear Luc: she knew that. It was just having a man in her house felt odd now and something about her visceral reaction to him unnerved her.

  “This has to stop Mum. You cannot hide away anymore – it’s enough. Dad died not you. Not you!” Jess was shouting now. “We need you Mummy; come back to us.”

  Rachel stopped crying and looked up through watery red eyes. “God, she’s magnificent when she’s angry” was Rachel’s first thought. Her heart lurched at the sight of her beautiful daughter all pink in the face and looking so much like her father right now. Jess was on a mission and just like Nate; Rachel knew she would not back down until she got the result she desired.

  Rachel opened her mouth to respond but paused. Now was not the time to make an enemy of her child; she knew that the problem was hers not her daughters’ and she quickly realised that this was their way of trying to perk her up.

  “I’m sorry” Rachel croaked. “I didn’t mean to be rude. He’s not what I was expecting and it threw me for a minute.”

  Jess’s mouth rose up on one side in a smirk. “You can say that again Mum………he’s fucking breath taking isn’t he. Abercrombie model material if ever there was one!”

  “Oh Jess – I can see your language hasn’t improved. And yes – even I can see he’s very handsome.”

  Jess flopped onto the bed next to her mother determined not to let this rare light hearted moment go.

  “Luc is our fall guy, Mum! If another bloke gets too friendly and we don’t want it; Lucy and I just give Luc the nod and he comes and rescues us. It’s hilarious when the other guys see him – they know they don’t stand a chance! Funny thing is; neither of us fancies him anymore. He’s just Luc. You‘ll love him Mum – he’s gonna make you smile…………he can’t help it - he’s very ‘entertaining’”

  The way she said entertaining made Rachel giggle and in turn Jess raised her eyebrows at her.

  “Ha! There you are – now come on down and make us some tea, mother!” Jess bounced back off the bed and out the door leaving Rachel smiling and for the first time in the longest while; her heart felt a little lighter.

  **********

  Pausing before she entered the sunny breakfast room, Rachel took a deep breath and plastered a happy face on. She had changed into a pair of her favourite old jeans and a loose white linen shirt leaving her feet bare, as was her preference. She loved to feel the hard, wooden floor beneath her feet – for some reason it made her feel grounded and secure – a reminder of a happier time. Rachel had brushed her hair and put a little clear gloss on her lips. She found a small pair of diamond studs to put in her ears and finally admitted to herself that it was ok to feel a little bit human again. She had even put on some pretty lingerie rather than the old comfy stuff she had been living in for months.

  “I can actually remember hiding under this table – that’s so weird.”

  Luc’s voice reached her from behind the door – his voice had a slightly husky quality to it, not as deep as Nate’s but lovely all the same. The sort of voice you wanted to listen to; Rachel could imagine all the girls loved it.

  “Who’s up for a game of hide and seek now then?” he asked; the huskiness pronounced, as he got louder.

  Rachel padded into the room greeted by the sight of tight white cotton straining over broad male shoulders and back. Luc was sitting at the kitchen table chatting with the twins but hearing her enter he turned his head to look over his shoulder and Rachel felt all the air leave her lungs just like that from one smouldering look in her direction.

  Gathering herself, Rachel headed over to the kitchen adjacent to the breakfast room – it was one big space really – the heart of the house when the twins were growing up. She could feel Luc’s eyes on her and it made her uncomfortable for many reasons. The last time he was here he was in school uniform for god’s sake! Now look at him all grown up taking up space around the table having no business looking like every housewives secret fantasy!

  “Ridiculous; get a grip” She muttered to herself appalled. One sexy glance and she’d come over all Mrs Robinson. The niggling feeling of somehow betraying Nate by
just thinking about what she wouldn’t mind doing to Luc made her uneasy and somewhat bemused. Her body was responding one way to his presence; but her mind was battling against it.

  Luc meanwhile was having a fabulous time. The twins were happily chatting away getting more excited as they regaled their mother with stories about uni life. He was fascinated by them and never tired of watching them together. They were animated and enjoyable to be with but he particularly loved how they instinctively knew what the other one was going to say before they actually said it. Jess was always finishing Lucy’s sentences and vice versa – they were such a double act. He cast his mind back to when he’d first bumped into them at uni. His head had filled with entirely inappropriate thoughts and it was the longest time before he could look at them without imagining having them both wrapped around him naked at the same time. Luc had never had twins and it was still on his bucket fuck list, but definitely not with Jess and Lucy. As sexy as they were, they were off limits once they had remembered they were all childhood friends.

  “Their mother mind you…” Luc mused then chided himself; the woman was grieving for God’s sake. However, it didn’t prevent him from watching Rachel in the kitchen preparing them some food. How many times as a boy had he done the very same thing from the same spot? He had loved Rachel then – she was the perfect mum in his schoolboy mind and he’d had a massive crush on her. To his surprise those feelings came flooding back even knowing she was a mum, all be it much younger than his own but even still. She definitely had that milf thing going on in her sexy tight jeans and see through shirt. Her bum and tits looked perky and enticing and Luc wondered exactly how old Rachel could be – she didn’t seem to be sagging for sure! He noticed she looked weary but no other visible signs of aging and he guessed her lifestyle afforded her the luxury of doing anything she could to stay looking young.

  Luc knew she was off limits not just because she was the twins’ mum but also due to her recent bereavement – if only his cock would feel the same way. Every time the sun shining through the kitchen window illuminated her spectacular tits, he hardened in response. Shifting in his seat to try and alleviate the accelerating ache in his balls, the chair scraped loudly on the hard floor causing all three women to stare at him as if they had forgotten he was there at all.

  “Sorry” he mumbled causing the twins to frown at him. “Pins and needles……….”

  Lucy and Jess raised an eyebrow each then got up to help their mum bring the food to the table. They sat back down in the same seats and Rachel tucked herself in next to Luc on the bench seat. She often sat there next to Nate but instead of allowing the memory to make her sad in no time at all Luc’s easy manner and inclusive conversation style had Rachel fully engaged in the moment. As he spoke he moved in time with his words causing his arm to brush hers and their thighs to bump together. In the first instance Rachel naturally recoiled from his unfamiliar touch but then she noticed he wasn’t doing it on purpose so she relaxed and just went with the flow.

  Luc was telling a particularly funny story about the three of them attempting to persuade two overzealous young men pursuing the twins, that they were a threesome and was so caught up it in that it gave Rachel another chance to appreciate his beauty close up. He was truly spectacular and she could imagine him as an Abercrombie or Calvin Klein model gracing the covers of magazines. His smile elicited a small dimple on each side of his face and exposed perfectly straight white teeth behind full soft looking lips. He had a strong jaw covered in fair stubble; cheekbones that looked like they could cut crystal and his blonde floppy fringe fell over his blue eyes adoringly. He had a little habit of flipping his head to move his fringe and then running his fingers through his hair to keep it back. It was a sexy move as it exposed his muscled underarms and caused his abs and pecs to move against his t-shirt enticingly.

  Luc’s booming laugh brought Rachel out of her daydream with a little jump and she silently admonished herself for her somewhat inappropriate observances.

  “Sorry Nate – but a girl can look! “

  She smiled to herself. It was a joke between them that Rachel lusted after many a good-looking boy stud that crossed her path. The recent trend for mildly erotic romance novels had re-ignited her libido with a vengeance and Nate had certainly benefitted from buying her a kindle and letting her indulge her reading habit. Nate would have teased her relentlessly about Luc and it made Rachel wistful and definitely horny just thinking about how she used to re-enact her fantasies with her husband.

  Rising abruptly from her seat Rachel proceeded to busy herself with clearing the table – she had made great strides today trying to remain firmly in the present but it was taking its toll and she needed to be escape back to the solitude of her own company very soon. .

  It did not escape Luc’s attention that the captivating smile on Rachel’s face had slipped to a weary expression and it pulled on his heartstrings to see her so bereft. He was certain they had made an unspoken connection during the course of the afternoon and he was determined to build on that slowly, pitifully aware of how vulnerable she was in the wake of her loss. There was one thing he had never failed at and that was making a woman happy and boy did Rachel need some TLC. It pained him to witness her sorrow; she was a beautiful woman in the prime of her life and she needed to be reminded she was still hot.

  CHAPTER 3

  The house fell into a loose routine over the next few days. The three kids would wake late and meander into the kitchen one by one where Rachel would feed them before they spent the majority of the morning and afternoon studying. They all had exams when they returned to university and it pleased Rachel that they were conscientious about their learning.

  The evenings however, were a different story and to begin with the twins dragged Luc to all the trendy London nightspots, proudly showing him off to their friends. It wasn’t long though before Lucy and Jess took up the offers from their many male admirers and it didn’t escape Rachel’s notice that Luc was more than happy to stay home in front of the TV or playing on his X box when the twins were out dating.

  On these occasions, Rachel often found herself seeking out the opportunity to peek at him from behind the door just drinking in the sexy sight of him. The boy could wear anything and look good enough to eat but Rachel was partial to his low riding sweats and tight white t-shirts. The hint of skin at hip level made her mouth water and if she was lucky enough to catch him stretching, the tantalising line of his happy trail drove her quite mad.

  One particular time she had gone into Luc’s bedroom mistakenly thinking he was out to collect his laundry but walked in to find him in the process of undressing. With his back to the door Luc had no idea Rachel was in the room which was quite fortuitous as she was frozen to the spot gaping as he gripped the edge of his t-shirt and pulled it over his head.

  Practically drooling as his naked upper body was revealed to her in glorious Technicolor 3D she was captivated by his tribal tattoo decorating his shoulder finding the ink surprisingly sexy.. She bit her lip to stop the whimper that threatened to expose her while her body began throbbing with need like a bloody teenager on heat. She knew she should feel guilty; her stalker like tendencies were getting a little out of hand but she managed to justify it to herself by the way Luc left her feeling so tormented.

  In truth, Rachel found she enjoyed the persistent hum of her body reminding her she was very much alive, and subsequently she began to feel a little revived. She laughed at the amusing memory of Nate complaining when they were first married that he was walking around with a permanent hard on feeling constantly horny as she drove him insane being around him all the time. Rachel kind of felt the same way with Luc in the house. Containing the deep sigh of appreciation that would have revealed her presence to Luc, Rachel silently tip toed back out of his room.

  For his part, Luc was not completely ignorant to Rachel watching him, but nor did he think she was ready for him yet. So he continued to tease her wit
h his little displays of skin here and there. Somehow he could usually sense when she was watching him and rather than freak him out it made him really fucking horny.

  He had been with older women before; the age difference was of no consequence to him. Luc loved women and wasn’t too bothered by convention, preferring curves to bones and nature to surgical enhancement. He could never figure out why women were so critical of their own looks when every guy he knew was more than grateful to be presented with a willing pair of tits and a warm, wet pussy pretty much regardless of how that was packaged. It’s not like he was looking for a partner, just some fun.

  Since he’d been staying at The Renton house he had shagged a couple of girls he’d hooked up with at various clubs and pubs, but lately Luc realized that it was only Rachel he really wanted. He hoped there would be a mutual moment of recognition where he could make a move but if not he was willing to wait until the right opportunity presented itself. Luc was not a shy boy and having been told countless times how attractive he was over the past few years, decided to put his aesthetics to good use and carry on teasing his friends’ mum presenting her with visuals wherever possible.
