Outlaw

He couldn't help but laugh at Tara's little come back. Her little cat and mouse game was fun and banter was light with just enough of a hint of sexual undertones to keep it interesting he thought to himself as he grabbed the grocery bag, while placing the bottle of wine in Kendal's baby bag before picking it up... Thank goodness it didn't smell of dirty diapers, a bottle of wine christened with ode' la baby wouldn't be the highlight of dinner flashed through his mind.

“I got it.”, he shouted as he seen Tara touting Kendal under her arm already at the door as she was fishing in her purse for a key. Unluckly he'd caught up to them before she had opened to door.
 
Tara pushed the door open placing Kendal down and the toddler bustling inside playfully. He ran into the living room playing with the toys while Tara headed to the kitchen finishing up dinner.

Tara asked Rick to help her bring dinner to the table and she placed the wine in the freezer to let it chill.
 
As soon as he stepped through the doorway the aromas greeted him like an old long lost friend as his memories traveled back to his boyhood home and his mother's kitchen. Entering the kitchen, his eyes wandered over all the delicious looking platters and making sure Tara wasn't looking he pinched off a peace of chicken skin the savory morsel made his mouth water before it even passed his lips. And when it did it was pure heaven, crisp, yet tender, laced with the perfect complement of seasonings which set off the favor of the portobella sauce.

“Everything looks wonderful.”, swallowing the little bite of chicken skin quickly to destroy the evidence of his pilfering. As he picked up the plate of chicken and and sauce and headed for the dinning-room placing it gingerly on the table. Returning for the mashed potatoes and asparagus.

“I think I got everything, what's Kindal drinking?”, he inquired... His head turning as if attached to the swivel as he wondered were those cupcakes were, he was born with an insatiable sweet tooth.
 
Tara smiled grabbing the cupcakes from the fridge and the wine from the freezer and placing them on the table. "Kendals having V8 carrot drink" she said going to grab that from the fridge and pouring it into his sippy cup. She also chopped his food up on a separate plate so he could eat it easily.

"Do you mind getting him for me?" She asked finishing setting up
 
“Sure no problem”, as he turned and headed in the direction of toys clicking on the hardwood floor. I seen Kindal playing with what appeared to be a giraffe figurine however, Kindal griping the small plastic animal tightly and bouncing the giraffe off the floor kept uttering, “Moo-Moo”

Rick had to laugh, “Kendal I don't think giraffes say moo, anyhow its time for din-din...”, as he held out his hand to the toddler who paid Rick no attention at all, and by the looks of him had no plans to do as Rick asked. “Well, you certainly are your mother's child.”

Not to be defeated by a two year old Rick promptly got on his hands and knees and picked up a toy horse and began crawling on his hands and knees toward the dinning room. The horse galloping ahead of him with a click click on the floor and Kendal tailing behind him the giraffe still in hand and Kendal voicing, “moo icky moo...”

It may have been easier to just pick the kid up and haul him to the dinner table but, making your girlfriend's kid have a screaming fit wouldn't impress her he thought, well it would probably make an impression but, not the kind that would be inductive to an romantic evening afterwards.

"Where do we sit?", hoping he didn't need up standing up...He was getting a little too old to be crawling on floors...
 
Tara couldn't help but laugh as she watched a horse then Rick then Kendal and a Giraffe and Kendal saying' Moo icky moo'. She grinned wishing that she could get a picture and chuckled saying" Hey are you two having a parade without me?" she smirked bending down to join the two on the floor sitting between Rick and Kendal smiling as Kendal crawled over into her lap and she tickled him playfully. " Thanks Rick" she said smiling " I know hes a bit stubborn about his toys at times."

She held Kendal in one arm and used the other to push them off the floor Kendal still clinging to his giraffe and she placed him in the high chair next to her seat signaling Rick to come as well. Kendal swiped a cupcake up when she turned her head and she laughed taking it gently from him and giving him some food" No desserts right now sweetie food first"
 
“He wasn't a bit of a problem”, he replied in short order seening Tara's signal to be seated. He couldn't up but, smile when Kendal swiped the cupcake a boy after his own heart Rick thought to himself. Seating himself comfortably in the simple sturdy oak chairs... As he heard Tara's pronouncement that desserts were for after dinner both Rick and Kendal's faces grew so long you could have swept their chins off the floor with a broom.

“Nice chairs, are they Amish, I sometimes stop to Beeville and stroll through the Amish bakeries whenever, I have to go to Corpus Christi. They sell doughnuts the size of pies”, he exclaimed while still eying the cupcakes.

“Enough talk of dessert shall I open the wine?”, trying to sound a bit more sophistication than his means and upbringing. His eyes fixed on the bottle of Melot resting in a terracotta vessel packed with ice. It was the center piece of a nicely decked out table, its orange brick color sweating from condensation was placed on a simple red and white checker towel..
 
Tara smirked seeing both the guys frown at no cupcakes. She began to feed Kendal and until he wanted to do so himself taking small bites off of his plate." Sure Rick I love Merlot" she said smiling. She had given him a hearty portion of food and she saw Kendal enjoying his dinner smiling picturing this every night as a family wouldn't be bad.

She talked with Rick as they ate and Kendal making sure they both got attention. She enjoyed dinner a lot and then finally announced dessert seeing them both perk up excited Kendal shouting "Yummy!"

She walked over grabbing the ice cream cups she bought from the freezer pulling out three and handing them out wondering if Rick enjoyed his meal.
 
“I second that Kendal”, his lighting up seeing the ice cream cups complete with little wooden spoons. “I scream, you scream”, pointing at Kendal, “We all scream for ice cream, the finishing touch to a perfect meal...”, popping the cardboard cover from the cup and digging in with the spoon pinched between his finger and thumb.

“Well, Tara I must say that's the best meal I've had in ages, I couldn't eat another bite.” he said as he licked his spoon. “Let's say we rest a minute then I'll up you clean up...”, passed by his lips with a long satisfied sigh.
 
Tara giggled and nodded " Agreed Rick" she grinned looking at the mess of food icing and ice cream around Kendals mouth.The majority of his meal went in his stomach but the rest was mess on his high chair plate. It didn't seem to bother him a bit and she was happy they enjoyed her meal " Your welcome to dinner anytime Rick im glad you enjoyed it" she smiled

She sipped her wine and said " Im making Kendals favorite tomorrow if you want to join us Rick. Your like the only person I know around here and we don't mind company if your not busy"
 
“What is Kendal's favorite? By the way.”, he asked his elbow on the table, leaning in toward Tara, his chin on resting in the palm of his hand his eyes locked on hers. “

For you and Kendal I think I can eek out a spot on my busy social calendar.”, arching an eyebrow as he spoke a boyish grin plastered on his face. She looked so relaxed and beautiful sipping the purple nectar out her long stemmed glass. He couldn't help but notice how wet and plump her lips were, and how white and pearly her teeth looked....
 
Tara smiled and said "Sounds like a plan and Kendal loves lasagna or anything elsr pasta related so thats ehat well have tomorrow" shre grinned and dessert I'll leave to you Rick "she grinned

She groaned at tge taste of the pleasing wine looking at Kendal finishing his cupcake.
 
His face bust out into a smile so wide he could spit in his ear, “Oh my God lasagna is my absolute favorite, and I haven't homemade in I don't know when.”, giving a thumbs up to Kendal for having such exquisite taste.

Snatching another cupcake from th platter on the over side if the table. Tara placed it as far form Kindal and Rick as the table would allow but, Rick's long lankly arms sometimes worked to his advantage, and as swiped a crumb from his lips with a quick flick of his tongue he was thankful this was one of those moments.

“I don't know if I can do justice to these cupcakes, but I'll try my hand at Tiramisu, I know I have ladyfingers and mascarpone cheese at home. So I need is to break out the old Kitchen Aid and have a little luck... To be honest I'm feeling lucky right now”, he said glancing up at Tara before taking another bite of cupcake and washing it down with his last swallow of wine..

Gazing at Tara his cheeks rosy and his eyes little glassy from the wine, his pupils wide to soak in every last inch of her he pursed his lips drawing closer, “You know with all this fine dinning we are going to have to get ourselves into some type of excise program. Something we could both enjoy, something strenuous but fun, something the we could do together, something stimulating but satisfying.”, his voice low his eyes wandering over her lips and breasts, “You have any ideas?”, he said gently running his finger down her forearm.
 
Tara grinned as listening to Rick and moving the cupcakes out of each from both of the guys. Kendal rubbed his belly and took off with his toys back toward the living room smiling at both of them before yelling playfully. Shed give him about a half hour before shed wash him and put him to bed.

She groaned at the name of Tiramisu " I love Tiramisu Rick that be amazing to bring but Kendal not so much so i guess ill have to save some cupcakes for him" She smiled.

She saw his cheeks grow rosy as he asked her about an excercise alternative although she jogged with Kendal in his stroller and did yoga she knew what he was proposing and smirked biting her lip slightly leaning in " mmmm im sure we can definately come up with a few things Rick. I definatley have a few positions id like to try. Are you into yoga?"
 
The expression on his face must have been priceless, he was sure it went from anticipation, to slack jawed in a matter of a few moments before he burst of laughing. “ Gott'a say you really had me going for a moment”, he couldn't help be lean in and kiss her on the cheek. Just a light peck, “You are adorable you know that.”, he said as he just looked at her soaking in every detail of her hair, her eyes, her nose, her lips... It was like he couldn't get enough of her.

“Have you ever done yoga? Seriously, have you? I doubt I could do any of that stuff I'm about as flexible as a two by four.”, he said through smiling lips. “I bet you're just puttin' me on, show me something yoga like?”, he said hoping his face didn't betray has thoughts , one on which was having sex with Tara while she was in a downward facing dog position...
 
Tara grinned giggling along with him and looked at him blushing slightly "I do yoga almost everyday Rick" she smiled "Im sure i could stretch you out Rick itll work wonders" she said standing up" Here try this one im sure itll be easy" she said standing straight upward and raising her hands above her head" its called a tree pose Rick" she said smiling.

She blushed eyeing Ricks rippling muscules beneath his shirt. She really liked him and enjoyed their friendship and didnt want to ruin things by having sex so quickly but she didnt mind him touching her.
 
He watched her arms reach for the sky in and effortless fluid motion. She was grace personified he thought to himself.

“That looks easy, are you sure its yoga?”, speaking softly so not to have Kendal distracted from his playtime and come in and want to play Yoga with Mommy.. It maybe selfish he thought but, for a few minutes he wanted Tara all to himself. He rose from his chair, and put his hands over his hand high over his head, “Like this?”, he asked?
 
Tara smiled and nodded "Thats exactly it Rick" she said " Its beginner yoga im afraid if you want more difficult stuff im afraid youll have to take a class or watch a few videos Rick" She chuckled.

"Here Try this" she said switching into another position one hand in front and the other in back arms straightforward and knees bent one foot behind as well. She smiled and said " Its called a warriors pose"

He promptly changed positions slide one foot back and extending his arms while bending his foremost leg at the knee. “Like this?”, looking over at Tara and trying to copy her pose exactly. “This is easy, are you sure this is real exercise?”, he smiled as he lowered his hands placing their palms together his finger tip pointed skyward as his thumbs touched his chest the classic Hindu Namaste greeting.

“This reminds me of some of the Kata's, a positions I used to do when I took Tea Kown Do Karate when I was a teenager... “So how long have you been do Yoga?”
 
Tara grinned and said " Im positive Rick... Ive been doing this about four years now its relaxing and it stretchs you in ways you wouldn't belive. I also do pilates it keeps me fit and toned and now I definitely need it because Kendal has began trying to run" she laughed and stood up. "Maybe you can come to a class or two with me or I can teach you some moves here. Kendal starts baby karate next week and ive joined the kickboxing and pilates class in the same gym."

She glanced at his form and said " Your doing excellent actually im pretty sure youd have no problem with that class Rick."
 
“I Can see how keeping up with a two, a I mean three year old would keep you going but, do you think you may be taking on a little much? I mean getting everything unpacked from the move, fixing up and decorating your house, and kickboxing as well as palates. That's a lot on anybody's plate.”, he said with a certain quiet tome in his voice. Wondering if pursuing a relationship with Tara might be like a dog catching its tail. You go around and around and around but, never get anywhere. This woman is so busy with her child and extra curricula activities she probably wouldn't have time for him...

“What time are the classes or classes you're doing so much I don't know if its one class or two or what?

Tara smiled hearing the concern he had in his voice. She leaned over giving him a soft kiss and said " No worries Rick one is during Kendals class on Wendsday afternoon in the room over from his that way i can check in and the other is Thursday morning to keep the burn. All the decorating got done earlier as well as most of the unpacking i just have a few more things under those stairs if your willing to help me" she said gently looking into his eyes "The decorators helped me alot today" she said stroking his hair gently
 
A rosy blush rose from his neck to his forehead when her soft lips touched his cheek in an unexpected kiss. “Well, I didn't realize your unpacking and moving in was coming alone so smoothly. I'm still in shock that you get everything done. “, his voice hushed as he felt her long graceful fingers gently stroking his hair.

He artfully reached out and taking hold of her hips slowly and gently pulled her into his lap. She was sitting on him her eyes level with his own before she had a single moment to protest. He kissed her. Her lips were delicate and tender and her hair felt smooth and satiny as he placed his hand on the back of her head. It was a slow gentle kiss, a kiss that lingered unrushed but, packed was with passion.
 
Tara gasped when he pulled her onto his lap unexpectedly but she hadn't felt uncomfortable pr anything it felrt almost natural. She looked into his eyes gently about to say something but Rick had leaned in amd claimed her lips. She sighed not expecting ot amd melted into the kiss returning the passionate respomse from Rick.

She gripped his shirt lightly holding him against her her legs straddling him as she sat in his lap.
 
Their kiss lingered as he felt her swivel around swinging her legs over his and before he knew it she had straddled him. As hands sliding down to the small of her back, he finally broke the kiss ands said out load what he had be thinking from the moment their lips met, “Should we be doing this way Kindal in the other room?”
