With a name like Rosco you'd think I live somewhere in the states, but no, I live in a village twenty miles east of London in England. I live with my lawyer father and head teacher mother, in a large 5 bed roomed house. Both my parents have very busy diaries and I am always having baby sitters. Currently I am about four foot ten inches tall. Why is my height at twelve years old important you might be thinking. It is a constant source of worry to my parents and even more of a worry to me. Why? I'll explain. My mother is six foot tall and my father is four inches. When I go out walking with my father he could put me in his pocket. They have taken me to doctors, but they say that I am still growing and I would have a growth spurt at some point, maybe. A youngish couple moved into the house opposite ours. The house itself had been empty for nearly two years and needs a lot work to make it liveable. It is nowhere near as big as ours, but for a young couple it seems a good start. Well that's what my father told me as I had not seen the new couple as yet. I was walking home on one particular day, when I saw an incredibly unusual sight. As I sad earlier my parents are very tall, tallest people I know. But they were talking to another couple who were as tall as they were, it looks like the new neighbours. "Hello Rosco." The woman said. "Hello Louise." I replied. As soon as I said that I thought to myself how did she know my name and how the hell did I know hers. I had never met her, my parents had only just met them also. The other three people fell instantly silent at this also. "Do you two know each other?" my mother asked. "No. we've never met." Louise replied. "How did you two know each others name?" John, her husband, asked. Louise looked at me and me to her. "We do not know." Louise replied. This was to be something between us always. She is about the same height as my mother, maybe an inch taller. John, her husband, was exactly the same height as my father. She is nineteen and john is twenty five years old. I found out later that she is a secretary at her husband's law firm. She is studying to be a lawyer, with the encouragement from her lawyer husband. "If you require me to look after him at any time please do not hesitate to ask me" Louise asked my mother. "Thank you. I am always getting sitters for him" my mother replied. That was the beginning of our relationship. I was soon going to her house regularly after school for an hour or so till my parents came home. I sat in Louise home office reading an easy to ready story book while she studied. She was facing away from me reading a huge law book and writing something down. I looked at her shoulder length blond her flowing at shoulders. She had this habit of curling one particular strand of her hair while she was concentrating. Even though I was only twelve years old I thought heaven must be missing an angel. She had these really deep blue eyes, this incredibly infectious smile. Then I heard a voice in my head saying "you should be concentrating on your reading and not looking around". "Sorry" I thought to myself. For a few seconds I wondered what just happened, did I just think that to myself or did Louise speak to me telepathically. I thought I must be going mad. "Rosco did you just hear me say something and you replied sorry?" Louise asked. "Eh! What the hell. Yes" I replied. She looked at me and then we both started to laugh. "Don't tell anyone about this." She said. "Don't you worry I definitely won't." "Sorry to trouble you though Louise but I have noticed that you seem to be just turning the pages of that book. I have been counting and for every page of this simple book I turn you seem to be turning eight pages." I asked. "Well I haven't been counting, but I am reading it." She replied. "Do you remember all those pages you've just read?" I asked. "Well yes." She replied. I then went ahead and tested her on the book she had just been reading. Not only could she remember it very well, it was as if she had a photocopy of every page in her mind and could recall every page, every word. "You must have a photographic memory or something" I said. "Yes I suppose I must, but I have never noticed it before." Well that was double twilight zone in the space of just a few minutes. For the next couple of years I went to her home office two or three times a week. In that time we became very good friends. We knew each other very well. I think she knew me a lot better than I did her, I could not hide my thoughts as well as her. Now that I am fourteen I thought that I would not need to go there anymore. I had grown a staggering one and half inches, so I was almost five feet tall. But then fate gave me a very helping hand so I could carry on seeing her. All of sudden nothing worked. I became incredibly clumsy, kept dropping things, falling over the list is endless. My mother would not let me into the kitchen on my own, I would probably end up burning the house down or killing myself. Why you may ask. Well what was happening was my growth spurt was occurring all at once. Shoes and trousers I had only a month would no longer fit, none of my jackets or shirts fitted. It was so embarrassing at school I was always falling over. From being slightly under five tall at my fourteenth birthday to now being six foot five just before my sixteenth birthday. So I kept going to see Louise three or four times during the week and a few hours over the weekend. She did not mind since she was always in her office studying for her law exams. In my eyes she got more and more beautiful every time I saw her. She smelt so sexy as well. As I got older I noticed how fit she was as well. She had a habit of wearing track suit bottoms and tea shirts when she was home and her hair loose around her shoulders. I also started to spend a lot more time with her husband, he was such a nice guy. He took to self defence classes. He was a black belt 2nd Dan in karate. I had been doing that since I was fifteen. We went to a few football matches together also. He was a great friend to me. I realised from very early on that Louise really love him and he her. But he never knew anything about her special abilities. As far as the mind reading abilities were concerned I had now worked it out. It only worked between me and Louise. Also it worked only when I was concentrating deeply or very emotional state. So I was better able to hide my thoughts from her now. John and I were sitting in his front room talking about the previous evenings Karate class when Louise walked in. "I am now a fully qualified lawyer. I have passed all my exams, done my probationary period. I can now practice as a lawyer, go to court." With that John rushed to her and hugged her. I saw them both together and even though I loved John for being so good to me I was so jealous at that point of him. I so wanted to hug her and hold her as he was just then. But then I realised if I did hug her she would realised my true feelings for her and I might not let her go either. She looked at me and smiled and I immediately knew that had read my thoughts. She came over and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I do not know about everyone else but at sixteen that was my first ever kiss, even though it was just a kiss on the cheek. "Rosco I also have a job for you by the way." She said. I was always interested in computers, networks, security and internet etc. "Yes what". I replied. "What a friend of mine is looking for someone to look after his computers and network at his office. I told him that you would work there free for two weeks part time. If he is happy with you and you with him, the three of us will get together and sort out monies and working arrangements etc. How does that sound?" She asked. "Great." I replied. That was more than great I was going to be my own boss right from leaving school. In the next two years my business was to grow quite nicely and earn me a very nice income. I was never going to work for anyone in my working career. This was all thanks to Louise. "Louise now that you are qualified can you go into court for me tomorrow. There is a big fee earners meeting tomorrow and I really do have to be there." John asked. "Okay. What is the case regarding." She asked. "A drunk guy is speeding and refuses to give breath test or urine sample. We don't really have any defence at all. He will probably get a huge fine or go to jail or both and not to mention the loss of his license. The only thing is he is very very rich and well connected, but we have no case. I have all the files in my case." John said. What john did not know was that this was to be the beginning of the end of their relationship. He thought he was married to a mere secretary but instead of being a pussycat she was a ferocious tiger. "Can I come and see you in court for the first time please." I asked. "Sure Rosco" she replied. I sat in court two rows behind Louise. "Sorry Mr James but I have been asked to be here on the final day of this case, my name is Louise" She said. "Well you can't be worse than the previous five of your colleagues. They have been useless. I am about to lose everything and they have done nothing to help me" Mr James replied. "I am sure that they have tried their best for you" She replied. Just then the arresting officer walked in front of them. He was in his early thirties, he was tall about six feet and I suppose good looking. He looked at Louise for the first time and stopped in his tracks. He obviously liked what he saw. "Hey maybe we could meet for a coffee or something when this case is over?" he Asked. For the first time I saw that she was angry at being spoken to like that. Especially since it was her first day on the job. "Do you mind if I try something?" she asked Mr James. "Sure please try anything" he replied. "Your honour I know it's late in the day, but may I call one last witness?" she asked the Judge. "It's very late in the day and all your witnesses have been called" The Judge replied. "Your honour a man's life is at stake, he is probably going to lose everything he has maybe even going to jail. Surely we can spare a little of the courts time?" She asked. The Judge looked the prosecuted lawyer. "Normally I would protest but since this is her first day I will give her some slack." The prosecuting lawyer said. "Your honour I call inspector Jack Gower" she said. The tall policeman looked very surprised but got up walked towards the witness stand. As he walked Louise began reading for the first time the case notes faster than I have seen her read before. The judge and prosecuting lawyer both looked very bored and obviously thought she was going to make a fool of her self. She momentarily look up at jack and then back to her reading the notes. "Are you chewing gum?" she asked "No" Jack replied. "You haven't got chewing gum in your mouth?" She asked. "No." "What have you got in your mouth then?" "It's medication, my nasal passages get blocked." "What did your doctor prescribe?" "Airwaves." "Which is chewing gum." "Er yes." He replied meekly "So you're a liar" she said loudly. The Judge and defence lawyer both looked up and were now a little concerned. "So Inspector so that we understand each other I'll just quickly go over the case. You say that you were following a driver who you say was driving well over the speed limit of the road. You put on your siren and he pulled over. You say that he refused a breathalyser. You took him to your police station where you tried to get him to give a specimen. He could not give the specimen. Finally here we are. Is that about right?" She asked. "Yes about it" He replied. "From the beginning then, when my client found out you were a policeman he immediately pulled over. Is that right" she asked. "Yes but he was speeding and he smelled of alcohol" the inspector said. "Just answer my questions please." She quickly replied. She had now finished reading the complete case notes. "Did you know that my client had put in several complaints to the police regarding harassment by someone unknown? Remember that we have already proved you are a liar once lets not repeat it." she continued. "Yes I did hear something like that about him" he replied "Did he not also fear that sometimes they would be following him while driving" she continued. "I don't know about that" He replied. "Could it not be the case that he thought he was being followed by these persons unknown?" she asked. "Maybe" he replied. "Is that a yes or a no officer?" she asked. "Yes." He replied. "So he pulls over in front of a parade of shops at a busy time. So I guess there were plenty of witnesses around when you were speaking to my client?" she asked "I don't remember if there were any witnesses" he quickly replied. "I am going to stop this trial and get all the witnesses from that time. If I find one witness I will make sure that you are busted down to a private at the least." She commanded. "Okay there were several people watching at the time." He replied quietly. "Right. So you pull him over and you start to scream at him and order him to take a breath test. Remember I will get witnesses if you do not answer correctly" she commanded again. "Yes" he replied. "He then refused to give a breath test." "Yes." "My client was in a state of fright and shock. He first thinks someone is chasing him. Then you start to scream and shout at him. Are you not surprised that he did not give a breath test." "I suppose looking at it that way you have a point" he replied with his head bowed down. "So do we need to go into what happened at the station inspector?" she asked. "No" he replied. "What do you suggest we do with the case Inspector" she asked. The inspector went quiet for a few seconds. He knew that she had completely humiliated him. "He does not have a case to answer" he said. Louise walked into her office later that afternoon. She walked into the meeting of the fee earners that was still going on. "I'm surprised to see you here. I thought you were in court." The senior partner said. "Yes I was but it was all over quite quickly" she replied. "I hope the sentence wasn't high and he wasn't very upset with it" he said. She was about to answer when the phone rang. The senior partner answered the phone. "I told you to hold all calls." "It's Mr James on the line" his secretary said. "Ok put him through" he replied "I thought he would have gone to jail or something". "Mr James how are you. I haven't heard the outcome yet" he asked. "I'll tell you what, the first five of your lawyers did nothing for me. They just assumed I was guilty and did not put up any reasonable defence. Then you sent me that new lawyer Louise". He said "If she has done anything wrong we will look into it and make any amends to you" he butted in. "She is the most amazing lawyer I have ever seen. Not only did she get me off, I got an apology from the judge and the arresting office is being charged with assault and harassment" he shouted. The room went quiet. John looked in absolute disbelief. His mere secretary wife had won an impossible case and he was told he did a terrible job by a client. "I am a very wealthy man and bring in a lot of money to your company. As an agent I also represent many other wealthy people who also come to you. All in all we bring in many millions to your company. I want Louise to handle every single one of our cases" He ordered. "That can be arranged. I'll make sure she works for a partner who can oversee her work" The partner replied. "No that's not what I want. I want her to be promoted to be a partner. I want her to be totally responsible for our work, not overseen. I want her to be fully in charge of this department. If this is not agreed I will take all of our work elsewhere and take her with us" he ordered. The room was absolutely quiet now. This Mr James was a wealthy and a very important client to the company. If they did not do what he said they would lose a large percentage of their profits. They did not have a choice. "Ok she will be made a partner immediately" the partner said. So on her first day she had become a partner of a large law firm. Some lawyers never become a partner and most people take fifteen years to make it. But the she had now become her husband's boss. He had been with the firm seven years and was a good lawyer. Their relationship was never the same again. About three months later while at school I got a message that Louise was waiting at the headmaster's office for me. I immediately knew there was something tragically wrong. A very tired lorry driver ploughed in to the back of my parents car. My father was killed instantly, my mother was in hospital but was not expected to live long. When we got to the hospital I just managed to hug and kiss my mother and cry with her while she was alive. She said to me that she wanted to speak to Louise just a moment. I left and Louise spoke to my mother for maybe five minutes. I went back to my mother and within thirty minutes she passed away. "Your mother asked me to get you live with John and me until you are eighteen at least. She also asked me to look after your financial affairs until then." She said. "I agreed still weeping from the hospital. So that was it. After a very tragic event I moved into the house of Louise and John. I was very happy there. I still went out regularly with John to self defence classes and football matches. I still could not take my eyes off Louise, she was still getting more beautiful every day. My business was now growing very well. I had ten paying clients and had now finished school. I am now nineteen years old. The day arrived not long after when I decided that I had to leave their home. Not because I felt unwanted or anything like that. An event occurred which made decide that I had to leave to give them a better chance at their marriage. I was sitting watching TV with John when Louise walked by and sat in the opposite chair. She had done this many times in the past. She sat back in her chair, she played with her hair for a while before putting an elastic to hold it back. Her relationship with John was not the same as it was in the beginning but they were just beginning to build up their relationship again. I looked into her eyes, while she watched TV. A comedy moment on the TV made her smile, that infectious smile. She was still curling that strand of hair. She had this habit of gently rocking one of legs ever so slightly on the other. It was then that I knew. I had always thought she was incredibly beautiful. But now it was different, I felt much more strongly towards her. I had fallen completely in love with her. I could not bear the thought of her going to bed with a man that was not me. Somebody else holding her. But I knew if I stayed here any longer I would jeopardise their relationship. Even though I loved her so much I wanted her happiness and I knew she still loved her husband. I knew she was hoping that in time he would accept her for what she was. I was now going to tell them that I was going to leave the next day and move back into my parents home. The house had been rented out until I had decided what to do. Louise had set me up financially very well. With my business, the cash my parents had left and a mortgage free house I was now set up for life. But how do I tell the two most important people in my life that I was going to move out. "You want to talk to both of us Rosco, don't you" Louise asked. Rosco & Louise Ch. 01 "Louise, Rosco has not said a word. His expression has not changed. But you know he wants to talk to us. I still find the way you two know each other so well so odd, a bit eerie sometimes. Maybe they should write about in some scientific magazine" John Said. I knew she knew exactly what I was thinking. "I am moving back into my parents house tomorrow. I think it is time for me to move on. Also you two could do with being on your own, without me always being there. I said. "Rosco we both love you and you are welcome to stay here as long as you want. Please only leave when you are one hundred percent ready" John replied. The thought of staying and seeing her everyday without holding her or seeing her sweaty after training and all the little things were too much for me. I just did not want to be the one to spoil their marriage. Then I heard her say to me in my mind that it was ok and she understood. She looked at me and smiled. "Well we are only the next house along so we can always visit and you to us. Please feel free to come over for lunch or coffee or just for a chat" She replied. With that the next day I moved back into my parents five bedroomed house. At nineteen I had what most people do not achieve all their lives. I did notice over the next couple months they had improved from their low point, but it was never the same. He could never accept her for who she was. The fact that she did not set out to do any harm to him or the fact that she still really loved him did not help ease his mind. All the people from her office all loved her dearly. She had now been made the joint senior partner. I still loved her so much it was agony for me. So I did what men in my situation would probably have done. I went out with other women, to get my mind on other things as it were. I met this twenty five year old women from one of the companies I look after, quite attractive. Well we went out for about three weeks, well not much going out I guess. We went out on the first date for a meal and a film. She talked about her job and life and stuff and I just listened. Then over the next three weeks we had sex thirty nine times. I don't know if that is a lot or not, but I was happy. At the end of the three weeks she told me that I did not care about her and that I was in love with someone else. Tell me something I didn't know. In the next six months or so there were four girls in total. Unfortunately none of them lasted longer than three weeks. I just couldn't manage to keep my mind on any other woman. So I thought for a while I wouldn't go out with woman until I had gotten over Louise, if that was possible. So I was now a three month virgin. John and Louise would regularly come round and say hello. We would have coffee and chat or have a meal. I would go there often as well. We were all still very good friends. John and I would still go to self defence classes. In fact I had just got my black belt. I had started the karate lessons and it had taken me five years to get to the black. "Rosco, what do you think of us taking Louise to a self defence class?" asked John. "It could be a good idea, she is already very fit. She could be a natural" I replied. "Okay. Come round to our place this evening and we'll both ask her" He said. "I don't think that would a good idea John" Louise said. "Come on it would be great fun all three of us going together. They are having an adult beginners class as well" John said. I could read her mind that she desperately did not want to go, but also did not want to disappoint John. There was something else but I just couldn't read it. "What do you think Rosco?" John asked. I now did not know how to respond, either way I would make someone unhappy. "Well I think we should leave it up to her" I replied. "Coward. Louise I think this would be great. You really should learn how to defend yourself" John said trying to sound convincing. Then I realised that she already could do self defence, but had never told John about it. She looked at me and smiled. She knew that I knew what she was thinking. "Ok ok I'll come. Hopefully I won't make a fool of myself" She spoke quietly. The Karate instructor was this tall, about six three, black guy. The thing that struck me about this guy was that he was like Brad Pitt's good looking brother. At every opportunity he would show his very muscular chest. His classes were full of women just because of him. He had sex with so many of his students and they were all willing, married or not. He was a seventh dan karate master and also a second degree black belt in Judo. He also had a six round boxing match with the British heavyweight boxing champ and he held his own. So I guess no husband would ever question him regarding their wives. We started the karate lesson with the instructor showing a few moves to the new people in basic self defence. But it was obvious to me that he could not keep his eyes away from Louise. What also struck me was that John did not notice this at all. It was really bugging me, I wanted to get up and have a word with him. I could feel my rage beginning to boil. What does this bastard want, another notch on his bedpost. "It's okay calm down" Louise quietly spoke in my ear. She could sense my anger. I immediately calmed down. "You there, why don't come up and help me with the next demonstration" the instructor ordered pointing to Louise. Louise didn't speak but put her hands up to say no pick on some one else. "Come on come on. You don't know when you could get attacked. It is best that you are prepared." He stated. Reluctantly she got and walked to the centre of the matt. She was wearing her usual home outfit, training shoes, tracksuit bottoms and a thickish tshirt. What nobody knew at that point was that Louise had not only done self defence but was a master in wing chun kung fu. Apparently when she was about eleven or twelve she was attacked by three girls at her school quite badly. Her father immediately started her on kung fu lessons. Like every thing she does, she was absolutely fantastic at it. After just a few months she not only stood up to those girls, but gave them a hiding. She later told me that she bitterly regretted hurting those girls, but at the time she could not see a way out of it. She currently trains 3 or 4 times a week and is the sparring partner of the women's world kick boxing champion. I could see the smile on the instructors face as he looked at Louise. I could tell he liked very much what was in front of him. He wanted another notch on his bed post. He had never known a woman to resist his charms or a man to better him in a self defence contest. He stood behind her and put his right arm around her and on her left shoulder. While he was doing this he continued to speak slowly to the assembled students. He put his hand gently on her left arm gently moving it up and down, in a caressing mode. I rarely lose my temper, but my blood was now boiling. I looked at John and he obviously could not see what I could see. I looked at Louise and the normally constant smile on her face had gone and was replaced with a look of anger. I decided I could not take this anymore. I stood up rushed towards them in the centre of the huge matt. If it came to a fight between me and him, even though I am now six foot six with a nineteen inch neck, it would be a no contest. I would need six or seven of me to stand a chance against him. But the thought of a definite beating was not in my mind, just had to protect her. John looked very surprised at what I had just done, but still did not move. "Get your hands off of her" I whispered quietly. "Go and sit down boy, before I knock you down" He replied quietly. "It's ok Rosco just wait, I'll handle this" She whispered. This conversation could only be heard by us three, as we were maybe twenty five feet away from the others. Take your hands off me or I'll embarrass the hell out of you in front of all your students and lady friends" She commanded. He just laughed and held her tightly. Then the most amazing thing happened, just mind blowingly unbelievable. She put her hand on his hand that was on her left shoulder. With a mere flick of her wrist the instructors feet left the ground and were above his head. He somersaulted and landed on his back on the matt. The other people in the gym were instantaneously quiet, not a sound in the large hall. John just sat not knowing how to react. Something just happened which could not possibly happen. "You bitch. So we know some sort of martial arts do we? Well I'm going to give you a lesson you'll never forget." He ranted. He stood up and rushed towards her and threw the first punch before I could move. I did not see Louise move at all but the punch went wide of her face. His face now was anger and amazement that he could miss. He had never missed before, ever. Another punch was sent towards her chin, then the merest movement of her shoulder and another miss. I stood staring, probably with my mouth open. Here am I wanting to protect the woman I love and she was throwing a beating to a man I thought was unbeatable. She obviously does not need any man to protect her. Her face did not have the normal smile but the look of concentration, not a hint of anger. At this point I think I loved her even more than I did before, more than a man could love a woman, if this was possible. He threw several more punches and all missed. He then tried a few low kicks, missed. Head kicks, missed. A mixture of high and low kicks, missed. Punches and kicks and still missed. He then bent his left leg at the knee in front of him, his right leg went straight back and tried a straight right arm punch to the midriff. With the merest of movements she easily avoided the punch. But before he could react in anyway, she leapt forward landing on his thigh. He looked up frozen in his posture to her. She looked down at him and a glance told him that she could finish this at any point. Before he could still react she leapt off again. Louise started to walk towards me, the merest of smiles reappearing on her face. I still could not believe what I had just seen. I moved towards her and hugged her. She put her hands around my neck. We held each other tightly, this was the first time I had hugged her like this. Even though we were in front of quite a few people, including John, I did not want to let her go. Just for a brief moment I let my mental guard down. I knew I madly loved her, wanted her and needed her. Wanted her to leave John and come to me. She was beautiful and sexy. She smelt so heavenly even when perspiring. "I know how you feel. It's ok" She whispered in my ear. But before I could say another word. The instructor had composed himself and was coming in for another attack. Louise quickly turned and faced him, with her hands low by her side. I could see the anger in the instructors eyes, rage overflowing, humiliation. At the last moment She threw a straight right punch to his chin, not at full force. He stopped in his tracks for a second, but still tried to come forward. Another punch landed again on the point of his nose. His eyes watering, his nose bleeding, saliva and blood pouring from his mouth he again came forward. She looked at him and her eyes told him if he did not back down he would fall down. He knew no retreat, virtually never been hit, he always won. How could he back down in front of his students. This could not be happening, she was supposed to be a trainee. He lunged forward again trying a right punch. She grabbed his hand pulled then twisted and he was again lying on the ground. But this time he knew he was beaten. Courage had now left him and was replaced by fear. He stayed down. A few days later John, Louise and I sat in there front room. "Rosco we wanted to be the first to tell you something which we wanted you to hear from us first." John said. "Ok" I Replied. "We have decided to separate. We will be selling the house." He spoke with a tear in his eye. I looked at Louise and knew she was quite upset. John could not accept that she was better than him, they hardly spoke, she still loved him. I was sad that they were separating but happy in a sense that she could now be mine. But reality came in to my mind again. I could not be so selfish, I must try and help them get back together. I looked up and saw Louise smiling at me and knew had just read my thoughts. "Why don't one of you come and live with me for a short while. That way you can think about your feelings and I know you'll realise how much you love each other. Please don't rush into anything to hastily". I said. They looked at each other and both agreed it was a good idea. Damn. "Who would you prefer to live with you Rosco?" John asked. "It's unfair of you to ask me that, I love you both. You decide between you and I'll be happy with your decision" I replied. They again briefly looked at each other again. "Well I think it would be better if Louise came to stay with you, If you don't mind. It is a large house and they say a change is as good as a rest." John said. That was it Louise was now living with me. For the next three months or so she was very quiet, crying constantly. I tried to look after her the best I could, making her breakfast and cooking the evening meals. But the break up was very hard for her. She could not change the way she was, she had loved John. "Rosco I have a letter from John" she said "Oh ok, what does it say" I replied. "He has decided that we do not have a future together and that he wants to sell the house and split the proceeds." "Louise there is no point me denying that I love you very much. But I think you have always known that. I want your happiness and if there was a way of getting you two back together I would. I want you to stay in this house, make it your own. Tell him not to sell the house and transfer it to him. I love john as well. I think this everyone would be the happiest" "He would be happy if I let him have the house. But I can't stay here indefinitely." "Louise if you are going back to John, then I am happy for you. Otherwise please stay with me for as long as you want. Please do not leave for at least a year, that way you can sort out your feelings and make a proper decision about your future." "Ok then" I was so happy that she is to stay, unhappy that she is upset about her divorce from John. But she is to be with me, I am to see her everyday. I had to be very careful how I approached her though, she is obviously in a very delicate state at the moment. I decided to give her plenty of time get over part relationship. It was now about seven months after she moved in, I was just coming home from work. I saw a van parked in my driveway with its back door open. I walked into the house and I saw Louise and her father holding boxes. I was never any good at hiding my feelings from her. I immediately thought she was leaving and going to her parents or another house. My love was leaving, without even talking to me about it. My emotions were clearly showing on my face, my eyes were watering. I couldn't bear the thought of her leaving. She looked at me for a second without saying a word. "Dad can you just give us a second please." She said She put down her box and took my hand. We walked into the next room. "What's the matter Rosco?" "I thought you agreed not to leave." She look at me and laughed and put her arms around me. "You silly. I'm not leaving. You said you wanted me to stay, well I have all my stuff which I had taken from John's house and I was just bringing them here. I hope that was ok. I should have asked you first" I put my arms around her and hugged her tightly. I think slightly to tightly, her feet were off the floor. "My darling, please this is your house." Her father at this point walked in. He saw us hugging with her legs around my waist and both us smiling and laughing. "I take it everything is ok then?" "Yes everything is absolutely perfect" Louise replied. "Louise now that you have moved in and you seem a little happier" "Yes?" "I know you haven't been going out much. Do you think maybe you and I can go and see a show and get a meal or something?" "Ok that would be great." I stood and thought for a moment. "Did I sort of ask you out on a date and you said yes?" "Yep" "There is one stipulation though to this" "What's that?" She replied "I have to hold your hand when we are out" I said jokingly. We laughed. So we started to go out for meals, theatre shows, cinema and many places over the next couple of months. The most that happened between us so far was a hug and a kiss on the cheek. But I was still very happy. I did not want to rush anything. I didn't want a quick fling and for her to realise she's made a mistake and leave. I wanted this woman for good. Then things changed ever so slightly, for the better that is. She was about to leave and go to work. I occasionally do things when my brain is not quite engaged and this was one of those occasions. I gave her light hug and gave her a kiss on the cheek. "Have a nice day at the office my darling" I said. I didn't mean to give her a hug and a kiss, if that was all I did it might have gone unnoticed. But the words came out before my brain had kicked in. But the reaction I got was very favourable. "Ok" she replied putting her arms around me. She kissed me on the cheek and left. Maybe I should disengage my brain more often. I now knew that we were going to be ok and she was beginning to like me. The day dragged along that day, the mornings events were replaying my mind. I sent her a text just saying "hello". She replied with "hello short stuff", that was her nickname for me. I got home that evening well before her and did the usual things. Since I get home before her I nearly always cook the meals. I like cooking, it gives me a sense of creativity and relaxation to do it. I am an early bird and make the breakfast also, which in most cases is coffee and toast. "Hello short stuff where are you?" Louise said as she walked in. "I'm in the kitchen." She stood by the door of the kitchen and looked at me for a few seconds. I walked over and lightly hugged her and kissed her on the cheek again. Hoping that the morning events were not a one off. "I could get used to this. Anyone would think that you like me a little" she said jokingly. These events went on for a few weeks, a light hug and a kiss on the cheek. Then on one Friday just before she was to come home my brain decided to engage itself. I thought it was always me hugging and kissing her. Maybe she is doing it out of pity, maybe she hates me near her. I decided not to do the normal hug and kiss anymore. "Hello Short stuff, in the kitchen are we?" she said as she walked in. She stood by the door at looked at me. "How was your day today?" I asked "Yes fine, don't go to court as much these days" "Oh why's that" " Most of my cases seem to settle out of court" "That's good isn't it?" "Yes it is for the client, but it would be good to go to court, you know all the arguing and stuff. I love all of that" "I have just finished the meal, hope it's ok" "Every meal you make is fine, more than fine, it's great". She stood by the door for a few seconds more. "What's the matter?" she asked "Nothing" "Where is the hug and kiss then? Or have you gone off me already?" "I could never go off you. I just thought maybe I was forcing you into the hug and the kiss." She walked over and put her arms around me. "I will tell you if you do something I don't want you to" I put my arms around her and we both smiled. I went forward to kiss her. I don't know if it was by accident or on purpose but the kiss on the cheek, didn't happen. But our lips met very briefly. Rosco & Louise Ch. 01 "Now doesn't that feel better?" She asked "Much" "Good. Let's not have any more silly talk any more" With that the morning and evening hugs and kisses got a lot better. I held her slightly tighter than before and we kissed ever so gently on the lips. It was now nearly a year since she moved out of her old house. She was already divorced and her old house was in John's sole name. Although she probably lost some money out of it, they were both happy. She didn't need the money and he probably couldn't afford to buy another place if this was sold. But what I did notice was that he started to bring a girl regularly home. I am not sure if Louise knew this or not, I tried to hide it from my thoughts. If she knew about it, she never said. Even though John still lives in the house opposite I don't know if he has ever notice Louise and I going out or coming in. That is until this one particular day. It was the anniversary of her moving in, so I decided that we should celebrate. I booked a meal out at the Ritz, then a show in a London theatre. Although it sounds really nice, it was so cheap so I decided to hire a chauffer for the evening as well. Well since I now had 3 people working for me, I paid one of them overtime and he drove our car for us. "I have a special surprise for you" I said as she walked in. "What's that then?" "Well you know what day today is, don't you?" "Yes it's the anniversary of me moving in." She replied. "Well I have booked us a very special evening for us and since it is a Friday you don't need to worry about work tomorrow." "Oh thank you" she said looking quite surprised and happy. "Before I tell you what I have planned, I have these for you." I said handing her the biggest bunch of flowers I could find. She took the flowers and there was a tear in her eyes "Oh god I did not expect this". For a moment she was quite speechless, John it turns out was not much of man for flowers or surprises. She put the flowers down and rushed towards me. We hugged tightly for a few seconds. She looked at me, our faces only an inch or so apart. "I think I'm really falling in love with you. You have been so patient with me. I know how you feel towards me and knowing that, you have not tried to rush anything." We then kissed more intimately than I thought possible. Our tongues met and circled each other, darting back and forth. I held her back and she held her arms around my neck tightly. We parted lips and look at each for a few seconds. "I love you and want you urgently. But I don't want a one night stand. I don't want to rush anything. You tell me when you're ready" I said to her. Normally I am very good at controlling the state of my arousal, but not in this case. She started to say something and my brain disengaged again. All I saw was those sweet moist lips, slightly parted. I kissed her urgently again. She responded to my kiss, our heads moving left and right, our tongues darting in and out of each others mouths. I put my hand inside the back of her blouse and for the fist time I touched her skin. Unfortunately this was point where I lost control of my blood flow. Our hips pressed together even more urgently than before. "I think you had better go and get ready, while I sit and calm down for a few minutes" I said. When she came down she looked absolutely stunning, sexy, and gorgeous. I could go on and on about her beauty. "You look absolutely stunningly beautiful" I said after I manager to shut my mouth from gawping. "Thank you. But where are we going?" "Oh to the local do track to watch dog racing. Hope that's ok?" She looked at me for a few seconds. "Oh you'er such a tease I now know where we are going, but you had me worried for a second." Well we walked to the waiting car holding hands. As we were outside our house we saw John walking towards his house. He stopped and looked at us and we noticed him. He stared for a very long time, I don't think he hasn't seen Louise dressed like this for a long time and I was holding her hand. She also was wearing that infectious happy smile as well. I had done nothing wrong in my pursuit of her. I had waited till they were divorced before I had made my feelings for her known and even then I hadn't tried to rush her at all. But John was more than just a friend to me and I felt a twang of guilt. I knew there was trouble ahead. I saw Louise look up at him, she gave a smile and a wave towards him. I noticed that the smile had gone from her lips at this point. John smiled and waved back. I lay in my bed later that evening thinking about my date with Louise. We had a fantastic time. I think the chauffer driven car to the Ritz really made her happy and she loved the theatre. When I had told her that I got the whole lot from the internet at a knock down price, she was still happy. She says it was the thought that counts and it was an amazing evening and she would never forget it. Suddenly Louise walked into my room, I never shut my bedroom door. She stood in the doorway in her sleeping shorts and tea shirt. "I'm really lonely, do you mind if I sleep with you?" She asked. For what seemed an eternity I could not speak, all my dreams seemed to come true. But then a reality check, I sensed that she just wanted to sleep. I sometimes hate the way we can read each others minds. I now noticed that she wore nothing underneath the tea shirt or shorts, please god help me to be good. She slipped underneath the covers of my kingsize bed. We then talked about the evening and the meal we had at the Ritz. I move towards her and put my arms around her. "I have to cuddle you during the night at least" I said. "Oh good, it is a bit cold outside anyway" She replied humorously. She looked at me and smiled and the added further "I promise this will be the last night you'll have to wait. I do love you and want you as much as you want me. Just seeing John today has made me feel a little sad for him." "There is one thing if we are to sleep together though" She said as we woke the next morning. "What's that?" "You can hug and kiss me as often you like and I'll love it, but you have to let me breathe." I suddenly realised that I was wrapped around her, squeezing her tightly. "Ok. I know we are in bed together and have just woken up, and our teeth need brushing, but I want to kiss you before I let you go." "Silly. Please never ask to kiss me. Hold me and kiss me whenever you like. We faced each other and hugged tightly. "Tell me you love me" she asked. "I love you so much. I will never let you go now that you are mine." We locked lips urgently. The warmth and feel of her body against mine made the state of arousal now completely uncontrollable. Our hips locked together. "I don't want to spoil the moment, but why don't we both have a shower and stuff and then come back to bed." I said eventually releasing her lips from me. "Great idea." She replied. I could her feel warmth against my arousal as we locked in another passionate kiss. "Does that mean I have to let you go now though?" I asked. "Well it would a much better first time if we both showered and did all the normal morning things first." We locked in another kiss. I could feel her dampness against me now. Our hips were now in a slight rocking motion. "It might be a good idea if we did stop and shower now or the moment might be all over before it starts" she said. "Only if you promise to come back" I replied holding her tightly. "Er um well.....ok then" She said trying to tease me. She got out of bed and went into the nearest shower room. I lie there for a minute or two allowing my body to calm back down again. I then got up and went into the second shower room I had. I don't know what other guys are like in the morning, but it does seem to take me awhile in the bathroom. I can't seem to finish in under thirty minutes. "I think you had better come down stairs Rosco" Louise said as I got out of the shower. "Why, is everything ok?" I replied. "There is someone here who wants to talk to us". Part two coming up.
