Melissa had lusted for Cal for years, both of them had interacted as neighbors exchanging social pleasantries at neighborhood parties, bumping into each other while out walking dogs, at school events, and at the local grocery stores. Melissa had always surmised there was something more beneath the cordial surface of their interactions, and it was not just merely as neighborly friends. She had seen the spark in his eyes and returned it on multiple occasions.
One day Melissa spied Cal working hard in his yard on a hot summer day and pulled her car to the curb to chat with him during his mundane task. She was delighted to find out Cal was now separated from his wife and clearly was now free because she had left him for another man. This was her chance. Their conversation was brought in the house for iced tea to get out of the hot sun. Things heated up way more than either of them expected when they both realized they had each harbored the serious hots for each other for literally years.
