I pulled the card out again and looked at the front of the very professional card which read, Douglass Hampton site services, Shell Oil Company. I then looked at the back of the card again and picked up the phone to call him. After about the third ring I was going to hang-up when a deep rich voice said, Hello this is Doug." I paused for a minute until I heard him say one more time, "hello?" I jumped in quickly and said, "Hi Douglass you don't know me personally, but about two weeks ago in Johnson's barber shop you gave me your card which had your number on the back of it." My name is Vaughn Davis and I just...." I was about to start rambling on until he stopped me by saying, "hello beautiful, I was wondering when you were going to call me. I started to think maybe I should not have given you my card." I chuckled and said, "Well I didn't want to appear too needy for companionship, and you did notice the first time that we saw one another that I was alone. We talked for about an hour an a half learning things about each other until he finally said, "I would love to see you this evening if you don't mind. I have two tickets to the Rachelle Ferrell concert this evening that I got a few weeks ago and I was just going to give them away if I didn't have a date. Well, I still have them and well I know that this is last minute, but would you like to go with me to that concert? It starts in another two hours." I smiled because I myself wanted to go to the concert I asked him if he was kidding because I wanted to go to that concert. He laughed and said, "What time and where should I pick you up?" I gave him the information that he needed and it turns out that he only lived about 30 minutes down the street from me. We got off the phone and I ran into the bathroom to ready myself for him to pick me up. 50 minutes later I was ready and the phone rang again. He announced that he was there and ready so I buzzed him in to the gate and grabbed my things to walk to the car. The brotha pulled up in front of me in a Black Navigator with an APA tag on the front. He got out of his side and came around to open the door for me. I smiled as we shook hands and I said, "You know I could have done this!" He smiled again and said, "Not on my shift!" When he got back in the drivers seat he looked over at me and just shook his head. "What?" I asked in a voice like is something wrong. "Not one thing I am just enjoying the view" he said as he pulled from my town house and excited the gate. Over the course of the ride over to the southwest side of the city we talked about a number of things from what we did for livings to our favorite places to shop. I had to admit that I really enjoyed his company and hanging out with him because the brotha really had an amazing personality and he was very very charming. An did I mention that the brotha was da bomb when it came to looks. A brick house and I do mean a brick house. Dude was phine!! As we arrived at the center where we were going he came over to my side of the car opened my door and helped me down. The brotha commenced to show me one of the most wonderful evenings that I have ever experienced. Turns out that the brotha had tickets on the second role in the center and he was going to give these tickets away. As we settled into seats and looked around I remember thinking is he crazy. He leaned over smiling at me and said, "Would I have been crazy to give these tickets away?" I looked over at him with one of my brows lifted and he just smiled. Rachelle Ferrell gave us the performance of a life time. I mean the sista went back to the first album and then she did some of the jazz numbers on the second cd, and then she brought it home with some numbers she had not yet recorded and numbers from the new cd. I have not been to a lot of concerts, but this one was of the hook. After leaving the concert we went to Houston's on Kirby blvd and had dinner. The area that we were placed in was perfect for the evening and the mood that I know he wanted to set. I looked over at him across the table looking at me and smiling and as I looked down at the wine in my glass I asked him, "so why would a good looking successful brotha like you be interested in someone like me?" He just smiled over at me and said, "Well Vaughn Marcus Davis, I can't believe he used my full name, why would I not be interested in someone like you?" "You're intelligent I can defiantly tell that you are sincere, kind, sexy as hell, and you don't take or give no bull shit. I can say that I like that in a mate you know." I smiled again and said, "A mate? Ummmm.... I see you are looking for a mate. You don't have one in the young lady that you were having dinner with those two weeks ago?" He smiled with those pretty dimples and started to laugh at me. I looked at him again waiting for an answer, and then he said, "My sister said that you were going to get that mixed up with the two of us out to dinner! The young lady that you saw me with was my baby sister who I love to life man... not my women." "So are you telling me that the beautiful sister that you were with those weeks ago was just your sister?" "That's exactly what I am telling you. See here is her picture" As he pulled her picture out of his wallet and sure enough there she was with the smile. As I liked at her and then looked back at him I could then see that they did look very much a like. He then leaned over and with that same big smile he said, "So do you have any more questions for me?" I looked at him and then decided that he was legit so I cute him some slack as I started to laugh with him. Chapter 4 "My first date with Prince Charming" That evening ended with a walk in the park downtown which lasted almost two hours. He really was a perfect gentleman not trying anything that was not appropriate. He brought me home and looked over at me. He looked at me and I looked at him. After a few moments we both busted out laughing because we both felt a little strange at the silence. He said "well I hope this is not the end of something that could be beautiful?" Looking at him I asked, "So why would you think this is the end when we just started?" He looked away and then back. "Well, I am just feeling you out on that question you could say. So I can call you tomorrow?" "Yep after church tomorrow please call me." I leaned over and kissed him very softly on his lips, which is something that I know that he was not expecting, he looked down shyly and looked back. I smiled at him and asked him why he was blushing. "Well, I guess this is good evening until you allow me to see you again. Or can I just be bold enough to say I want to see you again tomorrow?" I smiled at him and said well I thought you were already calling me on tomorrow?" "That is right." he said as he smiled that big beautiful smile my way. As I hugged him he gave me a quick squeeze and then let his hands trail further down south as he caressed my booty and squeezed that as well. "Watch that now!" I said as he started to laugh and said, "I just had to cop a feel real quick and make sure that my eyes were not playing tricks on me." We said our good nights again and then I watched him drive out of the gate. As soon as I got into the house I called G to give him the run down on how the evening went. We stayed on the phone for about 30 minutes screaming at each other over what a wonderful evening I had with this brother. At about 12:30 my phone rang again and I just picked it up without looking at the ID. "Hello?" "Wus up sexy I hope I didn't wake you up?" He said as his rich deep voice flowed over the line. I smiled to myself as I told him that I was up working on a web page and he didn't wake me. He just called to tell me that he had a wonderful time and that he wanted to see me again a soon as possible. He then went on to say "You know I am never this jumpy and excited about meeting someone, but you are the type of brotha that I have longed to know for a very long time and I want to make sure that I don't let you get away." "Well, I don't intend on going anywhere if you will keep me around and how about you let me cook you dinner after church tomorrow?" He posed for a quick second and said, "I will be out of service at 12:30 so what time would you like me to come over, and what type of wine do you like?" I told him what he could bring for the dinner wine and we both said our good nights. The next evening was fun yet again to say the least. We both went to worship and then on time as planned he was at the gate at 3:00. I opened the gate for him. And he came in to the house with the sweetest and best smelling corn bread, and a perfect selection of wine. We held hands and blessed: Fried chicken, Mac and cheese, sweet fried corn, and Fried apples. His corn bread topped it off, and because I knew he was a lover of fresh fruits I mixed up a fruit salad for dessert. We ended up drinking wine and me feeding him fruit at the end of dinner. This brotha was not only fine, but he had a heart, and he was kind, sincere, loving, and a real true masculine man and I loved that about him. As the days went on we spent evenings on the phone when he was not with me after work or I was not with him. We held hands and walked in the park on weekend afternoons and neither he nor I seemed to care if people stopped and looked at us. I was for once in my life very happy because the very one that I had prayed for had finally made his way into my world. I am so shy sometimes around good looking men when they are nude that I always avert my eyes because I don't want them to assume that I am trying to hit on them. I am so shy to the point that the first time I saw him naked I couldn't even look at him. I had gone over to his house after leaving my office around 6:30 I would say and I let myself in with the key he made for me. I heard the Maxwell cd softly playing in the background through the boss system as I walked up to his room. I turned the corner and there he was with his back to me toweling off. The only thing I caught a glimpse of was that beautiful booty and a pair of thick sac balls that looked like they might be full. He looked up in the mirror as I looked down and said, "Hey baby... how are you?" as he turned to walk to me. Thank God he was wrapping the towel around himself as he turned. I finally looked up as I made sure that the towel was around him and gave him a kiss full of tongue and mad love. He looked down at me for a few minutes as he held me in his arms and rocked me from side to side and said, "Now you weren't embarrassed to see me naked a moment ago were you?" I looked at him while trying not to blush and said, "No... not at all." Cool.... Cool... was his response as we continued to talk about the rest of our day and continue with our evenings. Douglass was and is the brother of my dreams. More to come........
