Brennon chuckled then mischievously adjusted his mirror so he could clearly see Katy. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Katy quickly changed into the dress, laughing about how cheap she felt changing her entire outfit in the backseat of a car in a parking lot behind a random building downtown. When she finished, Brennon headed back out to the street. Shortly after passing the gallery, he turned onto a smaller side street and parallel parked. “I’m so glad you came with me,” he said.

“Really?” Katy asked, feeling her heart warm. “Why? What makes you say that?”

“Because the kind of people that might be here,” Brennon admitted. “You’ll see. I swear I hate dealing with them unless I really have to. I will say, though, you might make some good connects in here...maybe. And every once in a while you meet someone who isn’t too full of themselves.”

Katy nodded then Brennon got out and helped her out onto the sidewalk. “Oh, yeah?” She started to feel a little nervous, wondering what to really expect as she locked arms with Brennon then allowed him to guide her down the street. There was something so romantic about walking down the street with Brennon. Of the few people who did pass them on the sidewalk, she looked into their eyes and wondered if they noticed the age gap. At this point, Katy truly didn’t care. Everything about this secret love affair she had going with Melanie’s older half-brother lit her heart on fire.

Katy was a bit nervous upon entering the art gallery. She helped herself to the wine tasting going on. As she anticipated, the wine calmed her. She then realized how good it would be for her to be in this sort of environment. She mixed and mingled with a few artists and even went as far as buying a print. She and Brennon had sort of drifted apart for a few minutes, but when Katy caught back up with him, she was graciously introduced to people Brennon worked with on different committees. By the end of the night, Katy had collected a few business cards from people who could potentially be great connections as she moved forward with her career.

Conversations were had about politics; about city council and how they were screwing up certain projects trying to come to the city. Katy admired Brennon’s passion about educational facilities going up around the city; Katy impressed Brennon when she stood her ground against a hardliner banker guy who was in favor of reallocating funding to public schools in the inner city. Before walking back out into the night air, the couple enjoyed some wine and a Greek salad at a table toward the back of the restaurant.

In the car ride back to Brennon’s place, they couldn’t stop talking. “And where do you know that one lady from? The one with the red hair and green eyes. She’s kind of, umm...”

Brennon chuckled. “Yeah, you’re talking about Helen. She was a friend of my aunt who wound up getting me this internship back before I became a professor. She really is a nice lady, but she has always had that kind of creepy look to her.”

Katy laughed just as Brennon had been pulling up in the parking lot behind his apartment building. He turned the car off then looked over at Katy. After a few moments of awkward silence, she looked over at him, wondering why he’d gotten so quiet. “What?” she asked, smiling.

“You really are a beautiful woman.” He looked her up and down. Her dress seemed to glow because of the streetlight on her side of the car. “You look amazing tonight. And I was so honored to have a beautiful woman like you on my arm tonight. I know some people will be asking me later about you.”

Katy giggled, not sure what to say. “Well, thank you. And you were handsome too. Very astute, you could say. You sure you’re not really a spy or something?”

Brennon smirked. “If I was, I wouldn’t be able to tell you. If I told you, I would have to make you disappear like what’s-his-name?”

“What’s-his-name?” Katy asked, her eyes widening. Before she could even get an answer, Brennon had leaned over and started kissing her passionately. Katy melted in his embrace then grabbed the side of his face.

After kissing passionately for several seconds, Brennon walked Katy up to his apartment in a very hurried pace. No sooner than the door slammed shut had they been all over one another. Was it the wine? Maybe it was the particular time of night. Maybe it was Katy looking absolutely stunning in this beautiful dress.

They became lost in one another’s arms, eventually winding up on Brennon’s couch. After several minutes of bonding emotionally with one another, Brennon leaned up and looked down at Katy’s chest with wide eyes. Katy giggled, rubbing the back of his head. “Go ahead,” she said. “You know...”

Brennon chuckled then Katy leaned her head back. Brennon gently pulled the collar of her dress down over her chest while she reached around to her back and undid her bra. In no time, Brennon blessed her olive skin with kisses: rotated his tongue around her nipples

. Katy laughed, playfully pushing Brennon away but her efforts were useless. She laughed out loud and kicked her legs when Brennon motor-boated his face between her breasts.

“I love you, Katy,” Brennon said, pulling his red face up and looking into Katy’s eyes.

Katy paused for a moment, almost as if she were stalled in time. She rubbed the side of Brennon’s face as she looked into his eyes. “I love you too,” she said. The words seemed to come out of her mouth effortlessly. The couple locked in another passionate embraced then Brennon got undressed. Katy smiled, anxiously waiting to feel Brennon inside of her.

“Awe,” Katy said, feeling the stretch inside.

Brennon muttered on about how much he loved Katy. Katy closed her eyes, her soul lost in a daze. Brennon slowly built up to a nice stroke then made love to Katy right there on his couch. Both his and her body were streaked with light slithering in through the closed blinds from the street light out in front of the building. Brennon gripped Katy’s breast while her legs clamped around his back.

“Brennon!” Katy yelled out as soreness started to come on.

She had just been closing her eyes when Brennon wrapped his arms around her back then pulled her up. He now sat with his back against the back of the couch. Katy smiled, kissing him and looking into his eyes while she rubbed the side of his face. She moved her hips a bit then worked her way up to rising up and down on Brennon’s cock. He eventually leaned in, wrapping his arms tightly around her back.

“Katy, you’re about to make me...” Brennon said several minutes later.

Katy looked down, smirking as she kept her rising and lowering at a very steady pace. Brennon closed his eyes tightly as he leaned back, but still held on tight to Katy’s hips. Katy planted her hands into his chest as his body shuttered then he came.

They lay in one another's arms on the couch until Katy brought up she’d better get going home so she could do a bit of grading then get ready for work in the morning. As usual, Brennon didn’t want her to leave, but he understood she had things at home to tend to. He sloppily threw back on his clothes then walked Katy down to her car. Katy looked up the parking lot at Brennon in the rear-view mirror. Thought started to creep into her mind that made her wonder how their secret romance was transforming. Whatever it was, Katy felt like her love life was finally going in the right direction.

Chapter 10

Katy made herself a cup of tea in the kitchen then leaned against the counter while in thought. Last night with Brennon had certainly set up a great momentum for her day. The kids wound up being good in class for the day, which was absolutely wonderful for a Friday. Traffic heading into the city wasn’t as bad as it could’ve been. The weather predicted a bit of nasty weather for the area, but some sort of front pushed the system northward so it missed the area entirely. Now, having been home for about an hour, she was alone with the silence so she could think. She and Brennon confessed to one another that they loved the other. Katy’s heart was still processing it.

The front door opened, there were footsteps, then it closed. Initially, Katy was a little alarmed because it sounded like two sets of footsteps. She was surprised to see her mother and father walking in the house today. In her usual upbeat self, she greeted them. They both looked up, clearly forced smiles, then went on with a somber demeanor. Katy’s mother Linda went upstairs then came back down having changed her clothes; her father Richard went back to his office and went through some things. Katy remained in the kitchen, but certainly picked up on a chill in the air. Just as her mother came into the kitchen, her father had been coming down the laundry room hall, from his office.
