I bought this cottage in a very remote place ,no immediate neighbours and it was on a wooded hillside ,my view consisted of a fantastic view across fields and wood land ,

I would seldom see people ,occasionally horse riders ,and as the property was surrounded by a river which was about a mile away ,you would might get people that wanted to get away from the hustle and bustle of towns and would camp in the woods .

When i bought the property i had a live in girlfriend ,we were together for two years but living in the wild was to much for her in the end and we parted amicably .

Being retired now i was happy with just my company with my garden and country walks ,well i thought i was until one summer after a lengthy drought there was a almighty thunder storm ,i have 0never seen hail and rain so heavy before ,it continued all day .

As it was just getting dark i could just make out how the river was rising ,i went to bed with it still raining not so heavy now but still falling ,when i woke up ,looking out my bed room window ,i could not believe the view ,the river had burst its banks ,fields next to it were flooded .

I was sitting at the back of my cottage and i thought i heard knocking on my front door ,i got up and went to investigate ,and there was this pretty girl soaking wet her dark hair sticking to her wet face ,

I am so sorry to bother you she said but i was camping ,and i packed up my tent put it in the boot of my car ,went to start the car and it wouldn't,i noticed your place when i drove past yesterday .

I said come in , i think there might be some clothes my ex girlfriend left you can change into ,she said are you sure ,sorry to disturb you .

Don't worry about that lets get you out of those wet things ,i said follow me ,which she did i led her to the bathroom to get a towel and then i pointed to my bedroom ,in the wardrobe you might find something to fit you ,you are so kind she said ,i told her i will make us a cup of tea while you are getting sorted i could do with a cup she said as i went.

While making the tea every thing happened so fast so ,i did not think how young and beautiful she was .When she joined me she was wearing a thin summer dress and i noticed she was not wearing a bra as when she walked you could see her tits move ,and them rubbing against the material made her nipples stick out ,she noticed but was not bothered .

As we were sitting at the kitchen table i asked her if she has got a partner to phone to let them know that she is okay ,no she said there is no one .

Then she told me about herself ,she said her parents died in a car crash when i was four and i was the only survivor,she lifted the hem of the dress to show me scars on her legs ,my aunt brought me up and she has passed away so there was no family relations ,

I said surely there is some one in your life you are beautiful ,yes she said with a scarred body ,she went on i was left a lot of money in trust from the accident plus my aunts house where i live still plus her money ,and i don't trust guy ,s as they always talk about my fortune and what we could do with it .

I said how sad ,that you cant trust anyone it must be awful living a life like that ,she said it is a bit of a cheek of me but can i stay here with you until the river goes down and a mechanic can sort my car out ,i will pay you she said ,don't worry about that stay as long as you want treat the place as your own ,thank you so much how you have not been snapped ,what a waste she said .

She stayed for a week and she cooked us meals and cleaned the cottage ,i jokingly said i will have to hire you ,she said i have really enjoyed your company ,and will miss it when i go ,i said to her you want to sell your house move far away where you are not known ,keep quiet about your money ,then you can find a single guy who is genuine .

I will think about it she said ,now her car was fixed she gave me a kiss and i waved her off ,on walking in the spare bedroom where she was sleeping the bed was made every thing was neat clean and tidy ,i noticed an envelope on the bedside table ,i picked it up sat on the bed and opened it ,she had written...........dear Colin i have really enjoyed living with you for a week and i know you are older than me but at the end of the week i wanted you to join me in bed ,you are so understanding and never tried any thing on with me ,even though i wanted you to , I have left my mobile number ,perhaps you had feelings for me but were frightened to show them ,am i being silly ,if by some chance fingers crossed you do like me ,give me a call and invite me to stay i know i could make you happy ,lots of love Gemma xxxxxxx ,i spent all the next week wondering if our relationship ,if we did get together would last ,or am i too old for her ,she had gone home but her perfume was still around the cottage ....................it definitely needs a lot of thought ,should i phone her ???????
