3 Dates With Jaime

I got closer to the kitchen and put my ear on the door.
'Oh, yeah, Tony! Harder!', said a familiar voice. I could also vaguely hear the tell-tale slap of flesh on flesh. I cringed when the cogwheels in my head began to turn. I couldn't believe my ears as I heard them climax. My mouth fell wide open. It was Mike and Tony. I wanted to leave but I was frozen. Suddenly, I heard them heading for the door. If they saw me outside the door, what would they have thought I was doing? I ran up the stairs and bolted into the first room that I saw. It was the bathroom. I jumped into the bathtub and closed my eyes. Sure I was still visible but it felt like I was in full stealth mode.


They walked right past the room and let out a sigh of relief. I decided to wait until the coast was clear but then I heard them walk down the hall again. I crossed my fingers, hoping that they wouldn't enter. But to my surprise the door swung open and I braced myself for the worst.
'Vic, what the hell are you doing in my bathtub', Tony yelled. I opened my eyes slowly and my heart was pumping faster. Mike was just silent, looking shocked but no words could escape his mouth.
'Well?', Tony continued looking confused.
'I'm...I wanted to bath but then I fell asleep...', I lied. I felt like such an idiot. Absolutely nothing could make it look like I wasn't being a total weirdo. It was far better than telling them that I knew about their little affair.


Tony gave me a look of sympathy like I was mentally retarded. He came closer and extended an arm to help me out of the bathtub. Mike was shaking his head.
'How long have you been here?', he asked.
'I don't remember', I said then suddenly a good idea came to my head. 'I was pretty drunk'
'Did you hear anything?', Tony asked, suspiciously. I shook my head.
'Not that I remember'
For the rest of the night, we watched some old movies. I could barely keep my eyes open and I drifted of into sleep on the couch. It came to the next morning and I just lay there like a lifeless fish, draped over the couch. All of a sudden, I heard Mike and Tony whisper to each other.
'That was a really close call yesterday', Tony chuckled.
'Yeah, baby. It would've been a lot better if my idiot brother didn't spoil it!', Mike said. 'But soon we'll have this whole house to ourselves when Vic goes to work'
'Mmmm, I can't wait to fuck you like there's no tomorrow', Tony said suggestively. I felt sick to my stomach. It was already time for me to go to work and I had to pretend like I was just waking up.


'Hey, Mike want a ride home?', I asked.
'Na, it's alright', he said. Tony had his hand on Mike's thigh and I was really wondering how they thought I couldn't notice. I drove off to my house and wore my business snap-back. I got the cart and wheeled all across the street. It felt really good to have people trying my tacos and for once they tasted a lot better thanks to Jaime's meat. I began to think about him. He was so perfect for me, I could feel it in my bones. His iconic laugh was stuck in my head and I was just so pumped to see him the next time I needed some more meat. I accepted my last dollar bill before I decided to go home. But I heard a voice trying to stop me from leaving.
'Wait! Wait!'
I stopped and I saw a man running towards me.
'One please', he said. I looked up and I felt a million butterflies take off in my belly. I was blushing so hard and he shoved a dollar bill in my face.
'Jaime', I said happily. Our eyes locked in a romantic stare and I quickly snapped out of it.

'Take back the money. I promised a FREE taco, remember?'
'Oh, yeah', he laughed. Jaime awkwardly shoved it back in his pocket.
'Mince, chicken or fish?'
'Fish! People eat that?!', he laughed. I shrugged.
'The people like it'
'Mince, man', he decided.
I made his taco with care and it must've been the most perfect taco I'd ever made. I handed it to him and he took the first bite. He was pretty surprised with how awesome it was. But why would it not be awesome, I am a taco genius.
'The best tacos can only be made by the hands of a true Mexican', Jaime winked. I felt so flattered as he scarfed every last bit of my masterpiece.
'Well, I gotta go home but I really had --'
'Lemme walk you there', he interrupted. I perked up suddenly and I agreed. I wheeled the cart home alongside Jaime.


'So this is where you live', he said, nodding his head.
'Yeah, this is the Fuentes household', I laughed. I put the cart in my garage and we were standing in front of the it. Jaime was looking down at me, deep into my eyes. The nighttime illuminated his brown eyes and I was just hypnotized. He put his arms around my waist and bit his lip.
'Jaime?', I said shakily. He slowly reached in and kissed me. The butterflies began to fly once again. I felt like I our tongues were dancing in heaven but I just had to let go. I felt so sick in my stomach and it didn't make sense to me.
'Vic, Vic are you okay?', Jaime asked worriedly.
'I'm fine, I just fell a little nervous'
When I felt a little better, I attached my lips onto his and it was just perfect.

'Y'know, I would love to come into the Fuentes household one day. How about, Friday night...on a date', he said. Jaime planted a soft kiss on my cheek.
'See you then', I smiled. He walked off and my heart was in so much pain. It was up in my throat and for the whole night, I could barely sleep. I was in my bed staring at the ceiling when suddenly I heard the front door bang open. It must have been Mike coming home. Or at least I thought. I heard two people down there. It was obviously Tony with him. They were in the hallway.

'Bye, baby', Mike said.
'I'll miss you', said Tony.
'Who knew that a washing machine would be so fun to fuck on. You really showed me a good time'
'Well, I'll see you, Mikey. I gotta work the night shift down at the shop but I'll see you tomorrow'
'Can't wait'
They did an obnoxiously loud kiss and Tony left. I shook my head as I thought about their affair. I just couldn't believe that they were hiding it from me but y'know what! Two can play at that game!
