The eery silence of the empty nest was daunting,
Loneliness filling the quiet days and long nights.
Solitude becoming unbearable.
But then he stepped in
A friend and neighbor for years, he slowly became more
The casual conversations over the fence gradually evolving.
A suggested gardening tip successfully executed, praised.
Then a task given.
And another.
Each assignment completed was rewarded.
Each pushing a limit.
Control being exchanged.
Soon...evenings sitting in the rocker facing the window knowing he is watching from the dark window nextdoor
Fully clothed at first but now completely naked.
Legs spread. Fingers pleasuring.
Wanting to please. Feeding on the warmth of his praise.
Clearly there will be more.
The loneliness fading. Anticipation growing. Need building. Control given.
Wanting to submit completely.
The walls of denial crumbling in the safety and trust so carefully crafted in friendship and understanding.
