Chapter 3 I'm Full Of Surprises

• The next day, I was still in awe of Cass' reaction to the pictures. I wasn't too sure if she had been so receptive to the 'showing off' in front of Neil, but with how pleased she was, all that sort of became second nature. But I couldn't help but wonder what a guy like Neil would've thought if he had seen that last picture.
• Cass had some meetings at some other part of town, so she wasn't able to meet me for lunch. Someone who did show up, however, was Neil.
• He stood in the door, looking around the office. The bastard was looking for Cass!
• "Where's the wife?" Neil asked in his rough voice, trying to act casual.
• "She has a name. Cassandra. And she's in a meeting. Why?"
• "Cassandra... What a beautiful name. Damn, you're one lucky guy," Neil chuckled.
• "Thanks."
• Neil shrugged his shoulders and went about his business. Instead of letting the conversation drag on, the notorious vacuum cleaner roared. I sighed and ate my lunch in... peace?
• I couldn't help but wonder if Neil had been thinking about my fiancée, though. He had been checking her out, and now Neil was asking about her. I chalked it up to me being a bit amped up from Cass' pictures. Though, the thought of janitor Neil lusting for my fiancée... I had sure as hell had to push those thoughts well away if I were to get anything done today.
• Though the devil on my shoulder was ever-present. I started to wonder what Cass would've thought if she knew Neil thought about her. Surely he did, right? Maybe I should tell her he asked about her? It wasn't anything but words after all. Couldn't hurt. Maybe someday.
• I instinctively grabbed my phone and saw a new message attached with a new photo sent by Cass. She was wearing one of my flannels, yet again buttoned down. And nothing else. The picture didn't show much, but it was all about all the things that were just out of view. Her toned, heart-shaped ass, her beautiful breasts. Though I got an eyeful of those strong, firm thighs of hers.
• Cass captioned it "Lunch at home today!" Damn it, this woman was really pushing it.
• Later that night. We were eating some bolognese, talking about the day when I brought up Neil again.
• "Your admirer was back today," I said. Cassandra looked confused at me.
• "Babe, what are you talking about?" Cass asked. Though she was biting her full bottom lip.
• "Neil. Even came around lunchtime again, hoping to get a glimpse of that hot ass of yours," I said, looking for her reaction. She just rolled her eyes.
• "Still on about this?" she asked. "What he say then?"
• I hesitated.
• "Don't be scared, now. You think I'm gonna run off with that monster if he said my ass is nice?" Cass smirked. "Let me hear it, I wanna know what he had to say."
• "He just said you had a nice name. And that I'm a lucky guy," I said. It wasn't that bad when I said it out loud. It was perhaps all the weight I had put on it that made Neil's compliment seem so wrong.
• "So anyway," Cassandra said, moving on. "I was thinking we wondered if we should go fishing Saturday. Friday's tomorrow, but I have some stuff I gotta do until late in the lab, so I'll be, you know, late. But Saturday, we should definitely go fishing."
• I looked at her quizzically. Why would she want to go fish? Cass found it exceedingly boring. It was certainly a first of hers to suggest a trip. I had dragged her a few times, but it had been a while now. She always tried to make the best of it, but I knew she wasn't the biggest fan, and thus I didn't really force her with me anymore.
• Cassandra smiled widely, grinning at my confusion.
• "I'm full of surprises, aren't I?" Cass chuckled. I knew she was up to something, but couldn't quite gauge what.
• *
• The rest of that week was filled with pictures of a more and more daring Cassandra. Some were more on the cute side. Selfies, some of her lifting her shirt to reveal her firm stomach. Others, however, were getting more and more naughty, as Cass got more and more comfortable with taking pictures of herself for me.
• Thursday she sent me three photos while I was at work. One she took was in front of a mirror, wearing red workout tights and a baggy t-shirt in the gym, showing off her muscled, juicy thighs, with the caption 'Workout done!'. Following up right after with something completely new from Cass. She had turned her back to the mirror, twisted her upper body, and snapped a photo of her tights-clad ass. Man, with the lighting hitting her ass just perfectly, really showing the spandex stretching across her firm, wide-hipped ass. The text said, "And here's some buns!"
• I chuckled at her cuteness. It even sort of rhymed. Probably on purpose, knowing Cass. Man, seeing her push herself, even without my encouragement was enticing. It made me yearn for where it might go, to see her creativity.
• Another from the gym the same day, a small video snippet of a side angle of Cass stretching on the floor by tucking her knee under her chin, with the text 'Staying flexible!' I had never really gotten a video from her, so that was definitely another first! I couldn't help but imagine her trying to set up the shot to create the perfect angle to show her entire side as she pulled on her knee.
• After finishing work that day, I hurried home. Cass had to stay home a lot at the end of the week, due to some assignments that were due Monday, only leaving to work out. Thus I had to drive myself to and from work.
• The next day, Friday, Cass sent me three new photos. One similar to her stretching video, then two new ones. For the second, she had propped her phone up on a bench behind her as she was doing deeeep body squats. I had of course seen Cass workout before, but seeing it on film like this, being able to play it over and over again was a whole nother luxury. Also, I knew she was trying to push herself.
• The final photo was perhaps her most teasing yet! Even more than when she wore my flannel earlier. The photo showed Cass in nothing but a towel, covering her upper mid-thigh to just above her chest! It was so erotic to see her with wet black curly hair, her strong hips still shining, and the muscles in her thighs attenuating tremendously. Her sexy body, combined with her playful smile... It was torture.
• On my way home I could hear two new texts. Fuck, I wasn't about to check while driving. So when I finally parked in our driveway, I grabbed my phone immediately and opened the messages. I quickly scrolled up and clicked the attachment.
