Two weeks later

One week passed and went by. You found a nice little job working at a sizable company in the IT department, not much at the moment, but definite room for promotion and one day move to networking.

Even though you would be able to afford and apartment now, the subject of you moving out of Doe's never quite came up as you both enjoyed the others company. True to your word, you helped her out around the house, doing some of the cleaning and also cooking for her when she was running late from the hospital.

So far you've gingerly avoided the subject of her ex-husband, and she seemed to be happy with that. In the past you and Doe have always harmlessly flirted with each other, and at least since you've been staying with her she's picked up right where she left off. Though now that you were staying with her, she's upped her game. For example, now and then when you get out of the bathroom after taking a shower she's right there, brushing against you in nothing but a towel and smiling. Or the times when she 'innocently' opens the door to your room to ask you a random question.

To your credit, you've done your best to dish it out right back at her... though admittedly she always gets the upper hand. Today though you planned to top her. You bought a few pairs of boxer briefs and planned to let her catch you wearing them.

That night you waited in your room while busying yourself with some work on your laptop when you finally heard her go downstairs. Blushing at the thought of her seeing you again in nothing but underwear, you paused at the door, unable to actually go through with it. With a sigh you are about to turn back around when suddenly the door opened and there stood Doe.

You both stood there for a moment saying nothing, and you couldn't help but notice how her gaze traveled down your body before snapping back up to your eyes.

After another short moment of silence, she smiled confidently and said, "I was wondering if you left the light on when you went to sleep again, seems I was wrong. But I wasn't wrong about those briefs eh? Look how they outline everything." She looked down again, letting her gaze linger on your crotch. "Well it is quite late... good night lad!" And with that she closed your door.

'...Well damn.'
