Lines in the Water

Renee was almost done, she almost got him undressed without breaking the deal. Jake still fingering her, fast and hard, making her moan loudly. Then it happened, Renee had managed to get his clothes to his ankles, but at the same time, she came. "Oh Renee, we had a deal" Jake said pulling his fingers out, pushing her against the wall. Renee was disappointed but she liked the excitement, this was all new to her. "How about this." Jake said breaking the silence, "I will still get in with you since you finished at the same time." Jake was not going to let her off that easy. "Yes king, if you want to" Renee, no longer disappointed in losing, turned to the shower and opened the door placing the speaker on a shelf. Followed by Jake, she closed the door, as soon as it was shut, she could feel him. Rubbing her back, caressing her waist, tracing her stretch marks, "you know you're beautiful right?" he asked her. Not knowing what to say Renee turned to him and smiled, "Thank you babe" she moved closer, studying his face. "This happened so fast, we don't really have a shot at a future, why am I doing this to myself, to him?" she thought, still admiring how handsome he was. Renee was not sure if she wanted to keep doing this, she could feel an ache she should not feel. Slightly heartbroken, she was starting a nice and fun thing with this amazing lawyer, despite the history, but there was one thing in the getting in the way. The move to Oklahoma, but she could not stay here no more, her kid's future depended on this move now.



Jake had noticed Renee fall silent, and grabbed her sponge hanging up, "what's wrong?" he asked, adding soap to the sponge. Renee could not help but shake her head, "nothing, just thinking about the move again." Should she tell him or leave it alone for now? Renee did not want things to get out of hand and it be harder than it should, "Jake, what if this goes too far?" She could not keep it in. Jake turns her so that her back is exposed, and starts washing her, " If it does then we will deal with it when the time comes. It would not be the worst thing, would it?" he asked smiling even though she could not see. She could list a million reasons why it was a dreadful thing to have happened, but one is the cherry on the cake, the move, the state difference. Renee held nothing back, she listed all the problems, possibilities, and how it was too soon to be anything serious. Renee finished speaking not sure if he even listened or if he was to be distracted by her back, or ass but when she opened her mouth "Ja-", "Well that is all good points, neither of us want to get hurt or hurt the other I'm assuming. Do you want to slow down and be more casual? I know this has to be a lot on you and-" Renee cut him off before he can make this more awkward than it already was, " Jake, we should slow down a little but if we want to have fun we should, but the second one of us catches feelings, like real ones, we bail." Renee did not want to end this fun, but she did not want to fall for him. They agreed to the terms and washed each other off, trying to not make things intense, taking time to shower, their moods dimmed by feelings. They fell silent for a few minutes, listening to the music, Renee laughed, "So this land, I can have my farm I have always dreamed of" shaking her head she cut the water off reaching for towels. "Well of course, what kind of animals do you want there?" Jake asked curiously, his childhood was spent on a farm, and she had 15 acres (about twice the area of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool) to do with what she pleased. Renee did not think that far ahead, "anything that needs a home I reckon, I do want cows and horses, that's a deal breaker." They laughed and got dressed talking about what animals she would have, "you need to get you a dog or two, and not any small ones." Jake said.



Renee was considering a dog, but her apartment was just to small and with this move she would be able to get a dog, even five. "You have a good point, I think I will get a Dalmatian, I dreamed of one when I was a little girl, imagine that on a farm" they laughed once again. Renee almost wanted another drink, but time was getting away, "it's getting late, what time do you have to be at the office tomorrow?" Waiting for a response she grabs a cranberry juice from the fridge offering one to Jake. Accepting the juice Jake says, " I do not need to be in until 9:30, first appointment is not until 11 though. I have a meeting, but I got to get things straight before we get you to your farm" he said with a chuckle. Renee could not believe a week ago she was starting to unpack in their new apartment, and this week she is leaving the same apartment. She smiled in irony, "My farm, sounds crazy to say it, good thing I was lazy and didn't unpack" she laughed pointing to the boxes lined up everywhere. "That is a good thing, but you aren't lazy you been here what two weeks. That just makes it easier for you and the kids." They laughed again as they walked to the door, "well babe, I will see you soon, have a good day at the office." Renee smiled kissing Jake on his cheek, making him blush. Jake forgot that fast about all of it, trying to respect her and boundaries, trying to not get attached. "I will see you tomorrow, with boxes and coffee" Jake said walking out the door with a smile, one that was warm and lit something in Renee. Shutting the door after Jake left, she went to the kitchen and chose to make herself a drink. She had so much to do, and not enough to do so, she got her computer out and started looking at shelters in Oklahoma, places to get animals, schools, she even looked for a job and soon she found someone who needed help on their farm.



Renee clicked on the add that read; " LOOKING FOR FARM HAND: MUST BE OKAY WITH CLEANING POOP THATS AS BIG AS YOUR HEAD ALMOST, HELPING SOME GIVE BIRTH WHEN TIME COMES, MUST BE ABLE TO KEEP TRACK OF IMPORTANT INFORMATION, HELP WITH BASIC CARE, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY YOU NEED TO LOVE ANIMALS, ITS A DEAL BREAKER IF YOU DONT PLEASE CALL OR EMAIL TO SET UP AN INTERVIEW CANT WAIT TO MEET YOU! SINCERELY, BETH" below the paragraph was her information and before Renee knew it, she was sending an email explaining the move and her dream and goals and explained her situation, without the financial part, and asking to arrange a meeting when she arrives. Renee proofed her email, made sure it was proper, made sure she included her love for animals and farms back to being a child, she made sure to try her best to sound like the perfect person for this job even if she lacked the experience, it was not requested to have. Renee walked away from the computer to grab a box she had not tossed in the recycling bin, re-taped it, and started putting her nonperishable foods in the box, and she decided to grab dishes leaving enough for the next few days for everyone to use, she packed them as well. Renee was finished with that box and moving on to the next, after that she had one box left, her goal was to do all three boxes, by time she finished putting tape back on the box she heard a ding from the laptop.



Renee ran to her computer hoping it was the lady about the farm, hoping she would agree to meet when she arrived. When Renee pulled up her emails, she screamed with excitement, it was Beth. She did not know if she wanted to open it now or wait. She was nervous about the email. Renee decided, " Renee, you will reach your goal before you are allowed to open this email, and only then will you." she said to herself, closing the computer. Back to her packing goal for the night she chose to pack what books and Nik-naks they had out. Not being enough, she moved on to movies, pictures, anything that would fit, and before Renee knew it box number two was done. Moving to box number three Renee chose to use this for clothes, she started in her room, because the kids were asleep, given that it is 2 in the morning by now, when her phone rings, a text from Jake.
