Chapter 3- High School Crush123Please respect copyright.PENANAVTu4AU8WWr
Betty and Susan looked down at Rob’s shining shoes, all the way up to his tall muscle body, to his dark full head of hair. Rob had on a black suit, and shining dark dress shoes. White dress shirt, with a red tie. His skin is tan white. In his signature style, the front of his hair is hanging on the side by his forehead and the rest of his short full head of black hair is slick back. Still looking athletic, but older with nice big hands and feet. Susan noticed his athletic body still, just like in high school.
His bone structure and high cheekbones gave her a feeling of words she couldn't express, as his blue eyes gave her life. His kissable pink lips always gave her that burning desire that made her tingle all over. He always had lots of hair and to this day, it's still there, no balding at all.' 'Rob was the popular high school kid that girls always wanted. The popular football jock in high school always broke females’ hearts and then used them with his charm. Rob went to prom with his then-girlfriend, Marsha Brady, who was prom queen, and the popular, very attractive Blondie, who looked her nose in the air at everyone.
Rob was prom king and so they both were the couple that everyone wanted to be.' "Rob Davis !!!" Betty said. "Mrs. Walters, AKA Betty Walters, and Susan!!!" "Wow, you still look the same as you did in high school and Betty you never aged," Rob said. "If I may say, you aren't so bad yourself." "Looking like the actor Jimmy Dean." "A Very handsome classy man, wow...!!!'' Betty said. Susan was speechless. She felt like she just went back years and years, back to high school. The shy little girl, who had a huge crush on Rob. She always felt intimidated around him. Sweaty palms, she remembers and her face always got very red, every time she saw him. An ark-ward silence as Betty and Susan stared at Rob. Rob stared at Susan. "Ok... Young man, come in, and let's all catch up." "We were just about to have some beef stew and croissants but first I wanted to ask if you can help us." "Can you take the rest of these crates out of Susan’s truck, please?" "These crates are filled with fruits and veggies from Susan's beautiful garden."
"She brought them over here, cause we are getting prepared for the festival in a few weeks." "I always make my pies for the festival every year and the green beans are for this Sunday meal, with the fried chicken and gravy," Betty said.
"Wow!!... Betty...!!" "You put me to work already." "But this is how I know that I'm home because no matter how successful we come or how much money we make, right when I walk through that door at my mom's house, she says, "Son, take out the trash, and do the dishes," Rob said as he took off his dress shirt and suit jacket. Susan looked with her mouth open, as Rob undid the last button on his dress shirt, she saw the muscles ripping through his T-shirt, from his chest to his arms, to his ripped stomach. Betty stared at him with shock. "You are a man now baby...wow... '' Betty said under her breath.
"MOM!!" "Behave," Susan said as she ran into the house, trying to avoid the feelings that she has for Rob, that bring back the high school crush. "I'm going to go get Rob a drink and prepare dinner and reheat the stew," Susan said. Rob took each crate and started stacking them, bringing them into the house. Betty guides him. "Honey, put those here, on this long counter, by the refrigerator," Betty said.
Thirty minutes later, Susan and Rob are sitting at the table, having dinner with Betty. "This is a great stew Betty." "A great home-cooked meal," Rob said. "I just got in town from New York." "I went to my mom and step dad's house, and also went to see some of my high school football friends." Rob looked at Susan, teasing her with an eye wink. Susan rolled her eyes in a joking way. Rob then continues to talk. "So you are making your pies for this festival?" 123Please respect copyright.PENANAjNaRbSFEsu
"Yes, and you have to go to the festival," Betty said. "I have never been to a Mississippi festival here before and I'm a native just like you two." "Born and raised here," Rob said. "Really...." "Oh my gods you're missing out on a good time," Susan said.
"More stew darling and croissants?" Betty said. "Oh no thanks, I'm full." "This was very delicious." "Don't mean to interrupt y'all day." "I was just driving by, saying hi to everyone in the neighborhood and so I must be going now," Rob said, as he stood up from the table. Susan and Betty weren't ready for him to go. "Wait!!!" "Don't forget about your suit jacket and shirt," Susan said."Coffee dear, or something sweet?" Betty said. Betty and Susan looked at each other, trying to figure out how to keep him from Leaving. "Young man you still owe me." "I told you that we all have some catching up to do," Betty said. Rob sat back down at the table as he looked at Susan and Betty with a weird confusing look. "Ok…Well after high school, I left Mississippi and I thought that I wouldn't ever be back but I'm back now visiting." "I realized that there's no place like home." "I grew up, and changed my life for the better." "I got accepted into a huge University in New York and then law school." "I'm a lawyer now in New York." "I thought football was for me but as I got older, my heart led me elsewhere." "I still play football, with my buddies, in my spare time." Betty got up from the table, and picked up all the dishes off the table, putting them in the sink. "I'm so proud of you." "You grew up into a great man and I can see from the sports car in the driveway, that you do have a lot of money." "You are going to make some lady happy one day," Betty said, winking her eyes at Susan. "Mom...!!" Susan said. "Well you both should go check out the backyard, and go sit down and talk," Betty said. Rob looked at Susan, giggling. Betty starts washing dishes. "Well go on kids, I'm going to get these pies in the oven," Betty said."Susan gets up really fast, walking through the living room, to the backyard patio. Rob looks at her as he walks slowly behind her.
Susan sat down on the patio chair, looking at the beautiful view of the mountains and sunset. The tall trees all around Betty's backyard fence, surrounded the area. The backyard had a waterfall in the middle of the grass, with a small pond, and a white Angel Statue that surrounded the waterfall. Scented Flower bushes, all around the yard. This reminded Susan of the fantasy that she always wanted to share this beautiful view with Rob. Now the dream fantasy is real. Susan stared into the view. Rob stood in the back of the patio behind Susan while looking at the view. Rob always felt attracted to Susan, now he has even fallen deeper for her and more. Even though it's been a few years since they saw each other, those feelings were still there. Seeing her beauty with the sunset and mountains, was a moment for him. He loved the fact that they were both alone now for the first time together. " Wow.. You left the kitchen fast, like you was running from King Kong," Rob said in a joking way. 123Please respect copyright.PENANA4tcwxZPAYb
"Do you mind if I sit down?" Rob said. "Sure," Susan said as she giggled. Rob sat next to Susan on the patio chair, facing the evening bright sundown.
"I see that you still have a sense of humor."
"So what happened to Marsha Brady, are you both married to each other now, with kids?" Susan said. "No, I haven't seen Marsha in years, ever since I left for college in New York." "We broke up after we graduated from high school." "I heard she is doing well in real estate, back in Nashville." "She is married with five kids," Rob said. "Wow... She has her hands full," Susan said. "So what about you Sue, the shy girl in high school?" Rob said in a teasing way. "Well, I met this amazing guy in college, out here in Mississippi."
"He was my everything, my joy, my everlasting, my rock." "We had big plans to have children." "We did get the dream house and both had successful careers." "We both always volunteer for charities and churches out here." "The festival was our favorite." "Every September, we will help out at the festival." "In August we always garden together." "I own a floral shop that me and him worked so hard for."
"He was my encouragement that influenced me to follow my dream of being a business owner." "I honestly didn't think that I could do it." "I saw my dad run a wine business." "I thought that maybe I can do the same." "My business became successful and till this day it's doing well." "So well that I'm now teaching classes at my shop, on gardening, and how to grow fresh fruits and veggies." "By the way, classes are free," Susan said. Rob tried his hardest not to laugh. "HA...!" HA..!" Rob laughed out loud. "I'm so sorry but I never heard of a class on how to garden and take care of plants, LOL," Rob said.
"Mr. Jock, why don't you come to my class and see what you have been missing," Susan said. Rob looks at Susan, while he still giggles. Rob then looked serious, as he stared at the Sun, going down behind the mountains. 123Please respect copyright.PENANA4RfUsOnwIM
Susan also stares clearly at the sun going down, as night slowly appears. "Ted reminds me of the beauty of the sunset." "I never want the sunset to leave but this is a beautiful view of sundown, the colors in the sky."
"I used to sit here a lot when I was just a little girl, and just dream." "Ted was the love of my life." "He passed away five years ago this month, September." "He died from a heart attack in his sleep, right beside me in the bed." 123Please respect copyright.PENANAhI5N9pQJsH
"The doctor said the heart attack was from his coronary heart disease." "That was a big health issue that ran through his family." "He was always going back and forth to the doctors a lot." Rob had a sad look on his face.
“Susan, I know I have been too much tonight." "I'm still a goofy jock." "All jokes aside." "I'm so sorry about Ted." "I know that you truly miss him."
Susan looked at Rob with a smile. "Thanks, Rob!" Susan said. Rob touched Susan's hand, as they both had a quiet moment, looking into each other's eyes.
The sky was peach and orange with dark grays. The mountains look like a dark shadow, and the trees blend in as the night appears.' 123Please respect copyright.PENANANMONx4WTAB
