Fourth Time's a Charm

I met him when I thought love was no more. I had given up on love ever since my last ex had the courage to elope with another man leaving me with a broken heart and wasted time, and when I was brave enough to call and ask as to why he had left me the way he did, he simply replied that I was not enough for him, that he had found  and I quote "... a way bigger flower to pluck..", I didn't get it, yes, I am not that good looking at 5'4 ft tall, average with a bit of weight, big ass ( and proud)brown skinned and looking for true love but still I deserved love. I Max needed love.

It is now a year and a half since he left me and I swore off love. Call it a curse but having gone through it all for two consecutive times, he was the last person I would give my heart to or I thought. 

There I was at the public library looking for the latest series of my favorite book for my weekend tradition of book reading, as I was busy trying to reach up the shelf for that specific book and failing miserably since there was no ladder, I reached as high as I could go on my tip toes when a hand reached out from behind me  and grabbed the book, I turned around to thank the good samaritan and there he was, 5'8 ft tall, he had a well trimmed beard, slightly prominent jaw, a muscular build, and a scowl on his face that told me he had not gotten the book for me.

"Excuse me sir but I think that book is mine!" I said after collecting myself together and trying so hard not to look at him while gaping,  he just scowled harder and I think I heard a growl in their " well it's mine now " he spat and all my gaping stopped and I felt my blood boiling, the nerve " Ahem .. you found me reaching up for it and you just took it. " I spat back now pissed, " yeah. " and he leaned closer, he smelled of fresh grass and spring flowers but I pushed that aside, nothing comes in between me and my books. " ....but I reached for it first " he said " That's hardly fair, .." I was now out of words to say so I said " and I touched it before you picked it up" this time he smiled at me like I was an amusement, he must have seen me as some short dude trying to reach greater heights  and that just pissed me off, other guys get hereos who get them books from shelves they can't reach and look what I got? Mr Scowl with a big ego, was I being punished for wanting LOVE?!, so I reached into my cross bag to get my phone and car keys as I left him standing there looking at me smiling still that I didn't see the woman infront of me who I bumped into and my contents spilled on the flow. I uttered my apologies and she seemed okay with it then I gathered my things rushing to get out of there as I could feel him still staring at me with his gaze burning straight to my soul.

I reached my car and opened it, this was not happening, my mouth was cussing silently at him yet my heart was betraying me once again for the fourth time " we had a deal, no more romance. It doesn't exist" I told myself looking in the mirror as I started the car and drove straight back home. I didn't have many friends except Maria my co-worker and best friend who was trying so hard to get me back in the love zone but I was done. 

Ten minutes were enough for me to reach my apartment house which was also my safe haven.at the far corner of town. As I entered I debated whether to call Maria and endure her painful conversation on how I should have made a move on Mr.Scowl or wait till Monday when at work but it was all the same. 

So I got my phone out of my bag but as I was about to call her, someone knocked on my door and I had no clue who it was so I put down the phone and went to see who it was and it was none other than Mr. Scowl.

"What are you doing here? Are you following me? I will call the police and I know tai chi !" I said but yet again he just smiled and said " you're funny" and I quickly replied " and you're not, what are you doing here?" 

" I am here to bring you this.." he said showing me my ID card " you left it on the library floor and also it says here if lost please return it to this address" he read out the address and I felt ashamed for assuming such things but you can't blame me, he had that scowl on his face, that SCOWL.

" Thank you ." I said as I held out my hand to receive my card. I still felt bad so I did the very thing that I shouldn't have done. " Would you like to come and maybe have a soda or something?" I asked and he just nodded as I stepped a side for him to pass.

I shut the door and went to the kitchen and got him a soda, I was a non-alcoholic and I told him that I would be right back. My heart was still pounding fast so I had to cool off. I went and changed into my casuals , my oversized t-shirt with my slightly tight shorts, luckily my t-shirt was long enough to cover up to my thighs. I went back and found him still sitting and sipping on his soda.

" So I guess I owe you an apology!?" I said trying to break the ice on the silence that seemed to have taken over, " well...maybe...." He said still smiling. " I'm sorry but you kinda started it when you took my book" I told him " your book? You couldn't reach it" he replied " I was gonna.... eventually..." I said and even I found that funny, it was way up high for me to get so we both burst into laughter, he had that sweet smile when he showed his teeth and he caught me staring at him. " Uh...do you also love that book series?" I asked him trying to change the subject and he nodded " it's a good series, maybe I will come back and we read it together since this was the only remaining copy!?!" he suggested and I was shocked, I was really afraid where this was going but my heart was quick to reply with a big yes. Curse you heart, was it fate that that was the only remaining copy of that book and a new batch was not yet due next weekend and I couldn't wait for that long, book spreading tradition would be messed up and we couldn't have that. " Perfect..." He said as he stood up to leave, he held out his hand and said " friends?" and I slightly hesitated but I gave in and held them, I felt a slight shock as the warmth of his huge hands enveloped mine and tiny electric Sparks shot down my body to my dick. I quickly let go after shaking and he pretended he didn't notice the way I reacted. Then he walked him to the door and he said good bye one last time and I closed my door. 

My body was all on fire as I ran to take a shower and cool off while servicing my now throbbing hard-on. I lathered my body after I set my water to luke warm and  slowly massaged my dick as I imagined Lucas, that was his name, pinning me on the bed while romantically making love to me as he fucked me at a faster rate, the thought of his dick in me made me pick up the pace and I imagined that we would reach the climax together as he released inside of me while I released on my stomach handsfree then in reality I spilled the longest strips of cum I hadn't in a longtime, it was like an eruption of pure ecstasy had occured to me. So I cleaned up and finished with my shower and proceeded to my daily chores silently praying that I wouldn't go down that road again, I always ended up in pain and heart-brokedness, I picked up my phone and speed dialed Maria to fill her in.
