The Custodian (Revised)

Chapter 22

Simplicity was once underestimated, until it broke a mountain in half.

Lucy

It's Saturday, and I'm excited about going out to lunch with Elzie. I'm destroying my wardrobe trying to figure out what to wear. I have clothes and shoes galore, but I don't see anything that I want to put on.

"Hmm, It's only lunch." I think out loud I still end up pulling out the perfect dress, and it stops right above my knees and tightly hugs my waist. I put on my earrings and some gloss, and I went into my walk-in closet to find some solid colored heels.

Lastly, I tied a scarf around my wild hair into a bow while walking into the living-room, and while so, my cell phone starts ringing.

I run back into my bedroom and dive on top of my bed to grab the phone before it's too late. How pathetic! I think to myself, then I answer the phone.

"Hello?" Trying to convince my voice that I'm not out of breath.

"Hey there beautiful, Is everything okay?" My smile grows.

"It is." I have this habit of short wording him all the time.

"Text me your address, I'm headed to pick you up." His tone is thick.

"One second." I take the phone from my ear and send him my address. We exchange a few more words and hang up. I'm suddenly more nervous than ever, so I take a seat on my couch until he arrives.

I've got the pedal to the floor blowing everyone out of my way. I'm never road-rage with Lady until now.

Ms. Cameron is something serious.

I'm nervous with knots in my stomach like I'm 12 years old all over again with my first crush. At that time, it was my mother's friend Josie. I smile at the memories...

In just minutes, my navigation takes me in front of Lucy's condominium. I spot the car she drives to work parked beside another car. I send her a text message to inform her that I'm outside, and she responds with a simple "k". She short words me all the time. I fucking hate that!

While I'm waiting for her to walk outside, I'm also waiting for my mind to drift off but it can't. I'm too excited to see this woman. I began to change the radio station, and my heavens...

I nearly drool at the sight that's standing before me. I impatiently get out of my car because I need to worship her existence. After she locks her door and walks towards me, it's almost as if she's gliding. This woman is fierce.

She is bad!

I softly grab her hands after she tucks her clutch between her forearm, and I kiss her forehead before I collect every ounce of her body into my arms.

I'm every bit of six feet and seven inches tall, so I practically hover over her. I walk her to the passenger side of the car and open the door for her to get in. After I shut her door, I go back to my side , and once I crank the car, I reach across her and fasten he seatbelt before I fasten mines. Once we pull off to head to lunch, she keeps looking over at me with a confused expression. I wonder what's she's thinking.

He smells so good, damn!

I can just bite him right now. Wearing this dress wasn't the smartest choice because I'm so turned on and I don't think I can control myself.
