Home Renovation

After years in the military, I (36) left to start anew. Well trained in construction and having inherited money from my grandparents. I bought a rundown house in a good neighborhood, started doing it up myself. Not in any real hurry, I was fairly well set up for life after my inheritance. My neighbors seemed nice enough, one neighbor I hadn't really talked too as yet as she was always on the go. Would say Hi and that was it before going to wherever she was going. She was a real-estate agent/landlord I learned and was also buying houses to either rent or flip. Unattached and easy on the eye and 33 or 34, I liked what I saw in those fleeting moments we saw each other. But I continued with my renovations, then as I was finishing my porch, she actually came over to talk to me. It was the final part of my renovation; she had noticed my work and liked what she saw. She it turned out was having construction troubles, her then project was well behind due to constructor not able to keep their workers. ICE had raided her property took away all the workers to deport them. The constructor could find replacements and had dropped her project. It wasn't his biggest and so he focused on the large one with what workers he had left. She was desperate to finish the project, as it was costing her money just sitting there unfinished. No wanting to be a bad neighbor, I agreed to look at the project at least. No promises made, next morning we went together and I looked it over. It was 3/4 done mainly fitting some cabinets and hanging internal doors and finalizing the painting of two bedroom. Everything else was done including the landscaping. I said I'll finish it for her, and I did start the next morning Saturday. Cabinets done and doors hung, painting started. She was quite happy with my work; I finished the painting Sunday afternoon. She was very happy and cooked me dinner as an extra thank you. A week later she had sold the place and was buying her next flip. It was closer to both our homes, and she asked me to look it over with her. It was dated and only needed updating mostly, only major problem I saw was the rear deck its posts weren't secured properly, and all would need to be replaced, they weren't up to the new code. Again, I said I would handle it for her, we became a team you could say. I was her go to guy to fix problems, some work at her rentals followed and we got closer each time. Finally becoming lovers last month (September), not planned by either of us it just happened. First a cuddle than kissing and then fucking. Neither of us regrated it afterwards and now regularly share each other's bed. We're in a relationship and it is deepening and I'll where it leads, I'm quite happy how it's going so far.
