Ted looked up in abject horror at the sound of his maid Grace Karlsson’s voice. What had ever possessed him to pull on her thong underwear in the first place?
He was standing there just outside the closet containing the washer and dryer while half dressed in his typical business attire. From the waist up it was his usual White button down shirt and a Red tie. However his trousers and boxers were laying on top of the dryer and Grace’s underwear was snuggly holding his privates.
“Oh God I’m sorry. I don’t know what came over me” His hands immediately began fumbling with the thong to remove it.
Grace was standing a few feet away in some Black leggings and a Gold colored sweatshirt with the logo of City University NY on the front. She had swapped into these casual clothes after Ted had spilled coffee all over her short sleeved light Pink dress that she occasionally wore for her job. Her shoulder length blonde hair was still matted down from the shower.
“No no no Mr Smith. Don’t take them off now” she pleaded.
Ted froze as he realized in his panic that he was about to compound the problem by exposing himself in front of her.
“Oh umm right. I’m so sorry. I’ll be right back” he muttered and grabbed his boxers and trousers.
Grace, at 19, was a young woman following in the footsteps of many immigrants to the United States. Her parents came from Sweden 20 years ago and worked hard in the restaurant business to give her the chance for a better life. But a college education is very expensive. Grace began working even when she was in High School as a maid / housekeeper to save enough money to pay for it. She scraped together every dollar she could and was taking some night classes in Business Administration at the CUNY because the classes were free for someone poor like her.
Grace was an intelligent woman with a quick mind. She was beginning to grasp an opportunity this situation provided. Clearly Ted Smith would be eternally grateful for keeping this quiet. Grace began to formulate a plan
“Hold on Mr. Smith. Its’ okay. I’m actually very flattered you enjoy wearing my underwear. Now that I think about, I’d be willing to forget this whole thing ever happened on one condition.”
The blood drained from Ted’s face “What would that be?” he said slowly
A thin smile formed around Grace’s mouth. “Nothing big really. Keep them on. Put your pants back on and go to work. I think you could end up very much enjoying the experience.”
“That’s it?” he asked skeptically.
Possibly due to her Swedish heritage, Grace was about the same height as Ted Smith. However at this moment she felt taller and very much in control. She savored the feeling.
“That’s it. Besides you need to leave soon or you will be late for work”
Ted eyed her suspiciously. She did have a point about work. Navigating the NY City subway system at rush hour could be an unpredictable experience.
“Yeah. Well ummm thanks. I appreciate your discretion.” He rapidly pulled his Grey wool trousers back on and tightend the belt. Ted soon departed leaving Grace to attend to her duties. She was somewhat surprised that he accepted her offer but it was an important first step.
In many ways Ted Smith was a pretty easy person to work for. He lived alone, frequently ate out at the abundant number of NY City restaurants, and was not involved in any serious dating situations. Grace attributed that to his workaholic attitude but questioned the wisdom. While he did make the fastest climb in his company’s history, if you didn’t enjoy the fruits of your labor what was the point?
Since Ted spent very little time in his luxury apartment near Central Park. Grace only needed a few hours three times a week to keep it clean. She was dusting some surfaces in a bedroom that Ted had setup as an office space. Grace took a moment to admire the framed Bachelors degree and MBA diplomas.
She smiled thinking about Ted at work wearing her underwear. He wasn’t a physically imposing man at 5’9” but he was quite fit. He religiously worked out at one of the Equinox clubs that featured riding classes with one of those instructors constantly cheering the patrons to greater efforts. Grace would have liked to make use of a gym like that but she had little in the way of disposable income.
Grace finished up her duties before heading to her next client. As she locked his apartment door she kept thinking about this morning. Could she turn his interest in her clothes to her advantage and what would she gain from it?
The images of his diplomas once more flashed through her mind.
*****
Ted worked for a large investment and banking firm based on Wall Street on the southern tip of Manhattan. Even with the growing inter-connectivity that the Internet provided, this area was a still the center of the worlds’ finances. Ted’s most recent promotion gave him control of the firm’s assets in the Biotech sector. He had a real knack for picking out blockbuster drugs before they generated billions of dollars in sales. This lead to his company getting an edge on investing that generated more profits. His superiors loved profits.
Ted was so focused on his work that it wasn’t until he went to relieve himself that he remembered that he was wearing Grace’s panties.
‘She was right about enjoying this. They do feel pretty comfortable’ he mused
He went about his day with his coworkers none the wiser. Later that night as he attended to a few chores he found Grace’s Housekeeping dress in the dryer. Ted was immensely relieved to see that the coffee stains had vanished. The dress had a white apron attached at the waist that he feared had been ruined by the coffee spill. Ted hung the dress on a hanger and left it on a hook in the utility closet. He took a brief moment to admire it’s simple but feminine design before closing the door.
He briefly saw Grace on Wednesday morning and true to her word she said nothing about the incident the other day. She was her normal cheerful self. But Ted was rather surprised later that night when he noticed that she hadn’t reclaimed the dress or cleaned panties. He made a mental note to ask Grace the next time he saw her.
When she arrived for her usual Friday morning shift, Ted was waiting for her. He was aware that she occasionally wore different uniforms but was unsure why. For example she was wearing a Maroon colored set of scrubs today.
“Did you notice that the dress I spilled coffee on is cleaned and hanging in the closet?”
“Oh I did. Thank you for cleaning it”
Ted didn’t understand her reaction “Don’t you need it?”
Grace shrugged “Well yes and no.” She went on to explain that she had one client who lived near by on Central Park West who had very particular views about how the staff should dress. Hence the Pink dress with apron. But others like Ted had no preference so she wore the scrubs. Grace then asked for a favor
“Would you mind if I kept this one here for emergencies? You see I can easily carry an extra pair of scrubs in my backpack but the dress gets horribly wrinkled”
Ted didnt have an objection but quickly joked “I don’t normally spill coffee all over people”
Grace laughed “It’s not that. My place in Brooklyn is an hour there and back. Your apartment is centrally located and if I ever need a backup dress again it would be so close by. I would really really appreciate it.” She looked at him silently pleading with her pretty pale blue eyes
Ted could well imagine how lengthy her commute on the subway from Brooklyn to central Manhattan must be. It seemed such a simple request and he was also grateful that Grace had been tight lipped about the panties. It was an easy decision
“Sure, no problem. I’ll hang it in my clothes closet in case you ever need it”
Grace’s innocent smile made him feel all the better about his decision.
