A Twitter Romance - a short short story by Walter von Tagen III


Come to my Parlour –

…Sounds like you have a lot of stuff. 
You place decent space for you?

3 bd 2 bth large master bedroom
Holy moley
I thought you moved
 into a small mobile home.

Size is relative.
 I estimate about 1200 to 1500 sq ft.
 All I know is it’s smaller than the house
 I lived in and larger than the other one I own.

Where is your other house?

In a “senior” community, 2 bd 2bth
about a thousand square feet. Cute,
but too small for me
It brings me in spending money : )
That’s good.
Maybe
At least both places are paid for,
and the profit I make on one
 pays for the space rent on the other
Perfect
How was Monday for you?
Good.  My kid was with their
 father while I woked.

*worked

That’s good.  Beginning to restock
the pantry. Have enough to at least
 offer you a hot chocolate the way you like it.
J
Need to go and restock the liquors as well.
Now when you say shots, is that
from a shot glass or a tumbler?
Not this moment, or course.
***
How is your night going?

Well, the only thing that
 would make it better is
if you were here ; )
And you?
Good, the kid is finally asleep
Ah, What are you going to do now,
 or should I ask…

Probably fall asleep,
way too tired for that.

LOL.  You just don’t have
 the right motivation…
or should that be stimulation? ; )
Both HAHA
Plans for the rest of the week?
Nothing much. 
The kid will be
with the Dad…
***
Hope your day is going well

Thanks. Boss is on my back,
I’m starving. 
Getting a sandwich today.
Can’t wait.
What kind of sandwich?
Italian Deli. 
Only one I ever get.
Ever try turkey with cranberries? 
Good for you.
No, I don’t usually try new things.
Really? We’ll see about that…
HaHaHa
When do you get lunch?
About 12ish, depends on if patients are here.
Of course
Unless we put them into rooms, say
“The doctor will be here in a moment”
 and close the door.
Then off you go –
: )
Wish it were that easy.
***

Good morning,
Any nice surprises on your end?
Maybe? Are they from you?
Maybe  : )  Why would you think the flowers
are from me, just because it’s Wednesday
or something?  How many people do you have
sending you stuff anyway?
Nobody
Thank you, they are beautiful
Like you.
Thanks
No need. Just like
making you feel special
I do now.
You just made my week
Wait until the weekend.
: D
So you going to send me a picture?
***

Message size: 32kb DOWNLOAD
: D Thanks.
Promise not to show it to anyone.
  Just doing what we’re doing could
cost me my job.
Don’t worry. I keep secrets very well.
***
            Hi -
You spying on me?  : )  Just got home.
Yes actually  : )
Don’t tell me, you snuck a peek at my
 med record to get my address.
All you needed to do was ask.
No, I put a GPS on your car.
: )
Lol – well, that’s all right then
***
Feel like sneaking over and cuddling
 in front of the fire?
Kinda hard when I have
 the kid all week
I know, maybe next week.  Besides, I thought
 you were going to be surprised
I even had a fireplace!
I was guessing it was a fake
It’s a real electric fireplace, not a fake.
HaHaHa
I love my fireplace.
Real?  Wood or gas burning?
Real. Both.
 I hardly use the gas lighter
What’s your place like, since we discussed
 Mine last time?
And thus we enter the realm of
I’ll show you mine if you show me yours
I already showed you mine.
And a nice view it was
HaHaHa
***
Ever read “Fifty Shades of Grey”?
No, but I want to.
Do you think that’s something you would be interested in?
Hello?
***
Sorry, Boss needed me
Don’t you hate being interrupted from
 phone flirting to actually have to do work?
Phone flirting?!?!
Well, some of what we do could be considered flirting
I suppose so.
Never answered my question.
No, I haven’t, have I? HaHaHa
***
How’s it going? Busy day today? 
Was thinking about you.
Awe.  Thanks.
Been really busy at work.
Exhausted right now.
What would be good for you is a
light dinner and a nice backrub
 after a warm bath.
So, bath, with or without bubbles?
You can start a fire that wa
*way
With bubbles and candles

I can, how?  And what type of fire
 are we talking ? : )
BTW – never mentioned candles.
But thanks for the idea. 
So, no bubbles but candles?
Yes, Candles
What about those real looking
 but battery operated candles?
Umm, no, I need the smell.
Scented Candles, check. Favorite scent?
 I like to smell the mountains
Anything beach for me.
Ah, like dead seagull, beached whale,
that sort of thing ; )
I love the scent
 of the ocean myself.
Me too.
Ok, making a note of it.
***
Hi, still awake?
Barely.  I fell asleep for
 a bit earlier tonight.

I have a little bit of whatever for you…
: )
***
Good morning!!
You’re spying on me again. Just woke up.
Got to sleep around 3
I hope I didn’t wake you. I wanted
to wait until you were up.
You can wake me whenever you want…
Tapping on the shoulder works nicely, btw

15th already.  Time to change the bedding.
Just establishing I’m not one to change bedding
Only every 3 months or so.

HaHaHa – you seem pretty clean.
At least in body  : )
***
Shopping with you in mind
Uh oh. What are you shopping for?
; )
Your eyes, hazel, right?
Yeah.
Thought so.
You never told me what you were shopping for.
No, I haven’t, have I? ; )
***
Hi – sorry I haven’t texted you. Busy.
Understand. You’re busy.
How was your week?
Quiet
I wish I could say if you were here
We could be quiet together,
But truth is we’d probably,
Hopefully, be laughing or talking
Or…something together
Wish mine was

I’m still hoping to sneak
 away for the weekend.

I think it would not be too quiet
How far do you want to sneak?
What do you mean?
Do you want to stay here or go to say,
Into the City or somewhere around there for dinner?
I figure we could just
 stay at your place
Sounds fine with me  : )
***
I have to confess I’m a bit restless.
Why?
Don’t know if it’s about you or work.
Because of me?
 How do I make you restless?
Nervous, I suppose. Don’t want to screw things up.
That kind of thing
Don’t be nervous,
I’m a pretty easy going person

Another thing is we have this
weird type of affair
type thing going on.
I know.
But instead of a husband
we have to make sure
your work doesn’t find out.
I find that a little bit exciting,
Do you?
Me too.
Can’t wait to see you,
although the first couple of minutes
might be awkward.
HaHaHa  probably.
I mean do we hug, kiss??

Did you just try and call?

Hello?
***
Hey –
You did try and call last night, yes?
It was an accident. Hit the wrong button.
Freudian slip more likely.
About the text,
it made me feel uncomfortable
and awkward
I guess we just wing it
Ummm yeah
Ummm okay
I now have the ingredients for a sexy Santa, btw
Sexy Santa?!?!
A drink, like Sex on the beach
 but with peppermint instead
 of peach snapps.
That’s good.  I’m not a peach
or grapefruit fan
Noted.
When you sneak up here,
what would you like food wise?
Cheese and Crackers?
Something sweet?
Hot or Cold?
Both?
HaHaHa I have no idea.
That’s a big help. : P
Depends on my mood.
It’s raining here.
Love the sound of raindrops
Yeah, it’s quiet.
One of my favorite sounds
Mine too.
***
Cheese, sharp or mild?
No cheese
Don’t like it unless its melted.
Mmm…melted, Used to love melted
 cheese on toast
What am I saying - Still do.
HaHaHa
Ok, cake or pie?
Depends
Be more specific-
Wait, I know.
Chocolate Brownies, no nuts!
With a dollop of whipped cream
Pie or Cake. I said it depends.
Okay.
Cherry or Pumpkin pie,
Cake…not a huge fan,
but I do love chocolate.
Cherry, never got the taste of
Pumpkin, mmm…chocolate.
So cherry or pumpkin,
or does it matter which?
Told you I love them both.
I’m not an Apple fan.
So you use a PC?
***
So I’m looking at your address
 and have no idea how to get there
Just take the main street exit off
 the freeway and turn left
towards town.  Take the first left.
 Drive into the parking lot
there and call. I’ll come and escort you.
HaHaHa Escort. 
I thought that is what I was!
You? An escort?  Is that a fantasy of yours?
Kinda. Getting paid to have
sex with someone.
I know it sounds wrong.
The fantasy, right?
HaHaHa yeah
Not wrong at all.  It’s a fantasy.
Depending on how things go with us,
I would be happy to fulfill the fantasy
With you.
How much do you think I’m worth?

For one night.
The whole night?
Yeah, being forced to do
 whatever you wanted.
More than any amount
 of money anyone could name.
: )
Just wondering.
So, if /when we do your fantasy,
I’ll have to come up
With one to compliment it
I like role play.
Ok, I can work with that.
Just to be clear, we’re not
Talking Dungeons and Dragons, right?
No…HaHaHa
Have you done much?
Not much at all.
If you want to try it, okay.
: )
***
So what kind of escort do you want to be?
I didn’t know there were different types
High class, street hooker, schoolgirl type
Businesswoman… Lots of types
How do you know all this?
I read a lot ; )
I’m going to say goodnight,
I don’t want to fall asleep on you.
Sigh.
***
I sent you a link – did you get it?
Yeah – can’t talk right now
Okay, let me know when
***
Hi, still there?
Yes.  For you, of course.
: ) so many choices on here.
Well, it’s your fantasy.  Pick out a dress,
 don’t forget stockings (suggest thigh highs),
 shoes – you can get from the site
 or just go down to a thift store in town.
Might also consider a wig if you want.
I don’t think I can afford all of it.
Just tell me what you want and
 I’ll get it for you.
Consider it part of your price ; )
HaHaHa  Okay.
What do you think of
 the monthly special?
What about the low cut gown
 on the first page of dresses?
In black or red?
Which would you  like?
For you? Black.  Go with the basics
Use fake eyelashes.
Ok. Can I change up there?
Of course, you can then go
 out and the back door and
walk around to the front if you want.
Not sure what to do then
Don’t worry. We’ll work it through
***
Hi
Hey.

I think we need to talk about limits
What you like and don’t
And we should talk about being responsible partners

A hush falls over the conversation -

You there?
Yeah
Sorry about earlier…
No, it’s okay
I realize a lot of what I wrote
 may have made you uncomfortable
 but I believe communication
 is important
Yes
***
I feel asleep last night
? Is that like the feeling
 you’re walking in a dream?
HaHaHa I ment fell silly
Yeah, kinda figured that
So, any questions?
The website.
Yeah. What about it.
Going to look at it more tonight.
Your fantasy?
Mine?  Mmm.
What about the Cardigan schoolgirl?
Thought you’d like that one.
You know I usually don’t date older people
I’m not that much older.
Yeah, it just feels strange.
Hey, nothing ventured.
I mean, you don’t think I’m too young
 for you or anything
No.
Still going to come up?
I will. I promise.
: )
***
The package arrived
Really?

Wow. So we’re doing this.
So, Saturday?
Yeah.
Do we need to talk before that?
Well, I don’t take credit cards,
so it will have to be cash
…HaHaHa
***
I’m at the parking lot.
I can see that
Where are you…
***
You caught me off guard.
Usually I make the first move.
I thought you had.
Anyway, the important things
 are the move got made,
and whether you enjoyed it.
Well…what do you think?  : )
If it makes you feel better,
You can make the first move
 next time.
Deal.
