As dusk fell, the shadows deepened in my car. Morgan sat in the passenger seat, and when I glanced over at her, I found she was watching me, a smile playing upon her glossed lips. She seemed perfectly at ease in the silence between us, whereas I was gripping the steering wheel with sweaty palms. Not for the first time that evening, I asked myself what the fuck I was doing.
Morgan was eighteen, my daughter's age, yet they were so different. Sienna was constantly chattering; she seemed to hum with energy. Now that she was away at college, I missed her vibrant presence around the house. Morgan had graduated with Sienna, and I knew they were friendly but not particularly close. Still, Morgan made a point to ask about Sienna whenever I stopped in at the diner where she worked. I'd begun eating breakfast there almost every morning, and I always requested that Morgan wait on me.
What had started out as innocent banter while she served me coffee and eggs had recently turned flirtatious. When I showed up in a nice suit, she told me I was looking "especially fine," topping off her compliment with a wink. I knew it was crazy to entertain the idea of something happening between us, but I found Morgan irresistible. My marriage was crumbling, and since Sienna had moved out, my wife and I no longer slept in the same bed. We didn't even try to pretend anymore. I was sexually frustrated and lonely, so when Morgan had leaned across me at the diner this morning to retrieve my empty water glass, and I felt the brush of her breast against my arm, I asked her if she was free tonight.
She knew I was married, knew we couldn't be seen together in public. Yet she'd nodded and told me, her lips close to my ear, to pick her up outside her house at seven. During one of our previous conversations, she'd mentioned where she lived, and I knew how to get there. I wouldn't even have to make up an excuse to give my wife, for she was working late at the office this evening (or so she said).
I also knew that Morgan lived with her mother, who had health problems. I sensed she didn't go away to college because money was tight, and because she wanted to help care for her mom. It was a lot of responsibility for an eighteen-year-old to shoulder. I felt a wave of guilt for being out with her now. I was twenty-five years her senior, and also married. I knew better than to behave this way.
Morgan seemed to sense my growing discomfort. "You look tense, Will. Don't tell me you're getting cold feet about asking me out tonight."
I gave her a sheepish smile. "Sorry, it's just that this is way out of character for me." I didn't want her thinking I hit on girls my daughter's age all the time.
"We're only going for a drive," she said, keeping her tone light. But she placed her hand against the back of my neck, gently massaging the tension from my muscles. "Relax, okay?" I quickly nodded, feeling like a complete idiot. As Morgan touched me, I caught the scent of something floral. It was a subtle perfume she'd probably dabbed on her wrists. Gardenia, maybe? I dared another glance at her, and her smile widened. "You look really nice."
I was wearing dress pants and a button-up shirt. Even if I couldn't take Morgan out to dinner, I still wanted to look good for her. She was dressed more casually, in tight-fitting jeans and a soft pink sweater. Her light brown hair, normally pulled back while she was working, now fell a little past her shoulders. I longed to run my fingers through those wavy locks. My gaze briefly dropped to her breasts. I imagined they would be perfect handfuls, firm beneath my palms. "You look absolutely beautiful, Morgan," I murmured. Then I fixed my stare on the road again, fearing I'd been too brazen.
She obviously didn't think so, for her hand moved from my neck to my shoulder before sliding even farther downward, over my chest. I glanced around, growing nervous once more. Traffic was lighter as we headed away from the main part of town, but a car driven by an older woman was keeping pace with mine at that moment. Morgan's hand came to rest on my thigh, her fingertips just inches from my groin. "You know, seeing you each morning is the highlight of my workday," she revealed in a low voice.
I didn't try to hide my pleased grin. "Is that right?"
"Yep. The other women I work with are a little jealous that I have you all to myself, but I've told them you're just being nice since I'm a friend of your daughter's." Her fingers moved a little farther up my thigh.
"I, uh, appreciate your discretion," I said. Did Morgan know how her touch was affecting me? She had to know. She could read me like a fucking book.
"I'm very careful," Morgan assured me. "But the truth is, when we're talking, and you look up at me with that sexy smile of yours, I actually get wet."
I released a faint moan at her words. Christ, she hadn't even touched my cock, and I was already getting hard! I felt vulnerable and strangely exposed, so I resorted to weak humor in order to hide my arousal. "I had no idea an old guy like me could excite you so much."
Morgan actually snorted at that. "You're so full of it, Will. You know you're gorgeous."
Okay, so she wasn't going to let me get away with any bullshit, I realized. It was true I thought I looked good for my age; I kept in shape, and my dark hair didn't yet have a trace of gray. But my wife's complete lack of interest had done a number on my ego over the years. I also understood that the street went both ways, and since I'd stopped working at the marriage long ago, it was now a matter of reaping what I'd sown.
"You've gone quiet again," Morgan said as she caressed my inner thigh. "Lost in your thoughts."
"I'm sorry," I blurted. She was probably convinced I was an asshole, inviting her out and then not even trying to hold a decent conversation.
"It's okay." I heard the smile in her voice. "We just need to get you thinking with the right head." As soon as she placed her hand between my thighs, I gasped. It was now dark, and I didn't have to worry so much about other drivers seeing us, but this was still risky. Yet my cock continued stiffening in response to her touch.
"Morgan," I pleaded. Fuck, she knew just what she was doing, stroking my dick through my pants!
"You didn't expect me to sit here the whole time and keep my hands to myself like a good girl, did you?" Her breathing quickened with her own excitement.
I glanced down at her hand working between my thighs. "You're being such a bad girl," I groaned.
Morgan unbuckled her seatbelt and turned to face me. Glancing at her, I could see the wicked gleam in her blue eyes. "I'm just getting started," she whispered, then began unfastening my pants.
"Baby, wait!" I was breathing fast now, too. Traffic had thinned even more, so no one was driving alongside us, but Jesus, we couldn't take this kind of chance. "It's too risky for you to be playing with my cock like this."
Morgan's hand snaked inside my underwear. "I think you love the way I'm playing with you, Will. I certainly love how hard you are for me."
"Ah, Christ!" A shiver of arousal went through me when she ran the pad of her thumb over my cockhead. "Morgan, we can't. Not here!"
She moved to press her lips against the side of my neck. "Then you'd better find a place to pull over so you can fuck me."
I looked around, frantic to do as she said. She was stroking my cock with a slow but insistent rhythm, and all I could think about was being inside her. We were driving on a street lined with office buildings, most of them now empty. I remembered there was a tiny park nearby with a few picnic tables and benches and a walking trail that led through a wooded area. I figured it was closed after dark, and we risked a trespassing charge, but it was a chance I was willing to take.
I pulled into the empty lot, driving my car toward a space farthest from the street and its lights. A brick wall served as a border between the park and the sidewalk, and it also shielded us from vehicles driving past. As soon as I backed the car into a space and cut the engine, I seized Morgan's wrist. A streetlight provided enough illumination for me to see her startled expression. "You're in a lot of trouble," I growled. Her eyes widened, but she didn't speak as I put away my cock. Only when I took hold of her hair and pulled her to me did she let out a cry. The kiss I gave her was hard and punishing. I forced my tongue between her lips, claiming her mouth.
"I'm sorry!" she said when I broke the kiss.
"It's too late for that." I got out of the car and then strode around to the passenger side, feeling like a stranger in my own skin. I'd never been this aggressive with a woman, but Morgan summoned forth something wild within me. Opening the car door, I reached in to grab her. She didn't struggle or tell me no. If anything, she was docile, even submissive, as I hauled her outside.
