There was a time when it all began to seem like some bizarre dream. That was after I’d been back home for several months, and was back to coaxing the spunk from my balls by hand again. I saw Emma every now and then, and she always waved and blew me a kiss. Once, Ashley was with her. When she saw me she ran across the yard and kissed me on the cheek, saying, “I still love you.” But then she ran back to her friend. I would find out years later that the musketeers had formed a new pact. They couldn’t have me until Caitlin could have me again.
Oddly, Hannah and I maintained the same kind of brother/sister relationship we’d had for the previous ten years. She called occasionally and chatted about this and that. Granted, now, during those conversations, when she said, “I miss you,” it had a different meaning than it had in the past, but we didn’t have phone sex or anything like that. I called her too, on her Birthday, and on Valentine’s Day. Valentine’s day was the only day we actually talked about missing sleeping together. I had sent her a dozen roses, and when I called to make sure she got them, she said, “If you were here, you’d get so very lucky.”
But we didn’t run away together to live happily ever after, or any of that stuff. Life went on, and we were thankful for what happiness we had had.
Or at least that’s how I looked at it.
It turns out that the women were making plans. They just didn’t keep me abreast of them.
I suppose I shouldn’t complain about that. For all I know they made Plan A, which fell through, and then Plan B, which also didn’t work out. It’s possible that they were all the way up to Plan R before I was made aware I had a role to play in it.
Anyway, how I did find out that I had a role more involved than being just a fondly remembered lover, was when Hannah called me one night and opened the conversation with, “I need the services of a good architect. You know any?”
“They don’t have architects in California?” I asked, mildly amused.
“They do, but they’re worthless, since the building I want designed will be built in Oklahoma.”
“Really!”
“Honest to Pete.”
“What’s going on?”
“I finally decided to use my doctorate for something other than teaching,” she said.
“Tell me about it.”
“There’s nothing much to tell. Caitlin got accepted at the University of Oklahoma at Norman, and I got a job at the Oklahoma City Museum of Art. So we’re moving to Oklahoma after she graduates. For some strange reason she wants to live with her mother while she goes to college, and I’ve always wanted to live in a house I had something to do with designing. So I need an architect to turn what I tell him I want into all those funny lines on the blueprints.”
I was stunned. I’d had no clue, no hint whatsoever, that any of this was going on. And they must have known this for the last eight or ten phone calls. They just kept me in the dark.
“Bob?”
I realized I was standing there with my mouth hanging open.
“Wow,” I said.
“Isn’t it wonderful? Maybe we’ll get to see you more often.”
“You think?” I was aghast. Her whole demeanor was just blowing me away. Then the excitement of the possibilities hit my stomach and I almost bent over. “You’ll probably be hard pressed to keep me away,” I said.
“Oh, I don’t think that would be such a burden,” she said. “How about it? Want to design my new house?”
“Hell yes, I do,” I said. “Is this for real?”
“I’m flying in to OKC next week to inspect several parcels of land,” she said. “Once I buy something, I’m going to want to get going very quickly. I report to my new job in August.”
“That’s plenty of time,” I said. “It’s only November now, and I can have a set of preliminary drawings done up for you in a couple of weeks. Why don’t I meet you in OKC and look at the property with you. If you decide now, I’ll already know what the geology looks like, and can incorporate that into the design. Plus you can tell me what you have in mind. I could have something ready for you by February at the latest.”
“Sounds good to me. I’ll email you with my itinerary.”
And, just like that, the conversation was over. We didn’t talk about anything else. It was very businesslike. I sat there, amazed that, once again, the Anderson women had rocked my world. Oklahoma City. Norman. Both were just a forty-five minute drive from Chickasha, where I lived.
Suddenly, the world was a brighter place.
That week went by fast. Her email told me when she’d fly in to Will Rogers, and I emailed her back that I’d be her transportation while in Oklahoma. Her itinerary had her coming in on a Tuesday, and leaving on Thursday, which gave me hope that I’d manage to convince her to stay at my house for the two nights she’d be here. And, if she needed to stay in a hotel to make her schedule work, then maybe I could convince her to let me stay with her.
I knew the properties she was going to look at were in the Seminole area, and since I’d already done some work in that part of the state I knew what to expect in terms of what depth the ground water was, and what type of geology there would be. Depending on her budget, I had some ideas that might be useful. Installing a ground source heating and cooling system, for example. If she had geothermal, and solar panels on the roof, she could be off the grid if necessary and perhaps even sell power back to the electric company. If nothing else, her electric bill would be close to zero each month. And there were other things she could do that would make the property more valuable, both to live in and later sell.
So I was excited as I stood at the luggage carousel that was listed for her flight. I knew the flight had landed, because I’d sat where I could see one of the electric boards that announced such things.
I saw her head first. Her hair was swept back in a pony tail, and the strong bones of her face made her easy to recognize, even from far away. She was walking with that stride that suggests she’s got important business to get to. As she got closer, my eyes appreciated the dress she had chosen to wear. It was forest green, her favorite color, and it was made of rayon or whatever material it is that clings to every subtle change in the shape of the body.
Such as her breasts. That dress put her breasts on display. Even from where I was, still a hundred feet away, I could see those breasts bouncing gently, and the men around her turning their heads, some briefly, some for longer periods, as they appreciated her too.
She saw me and smiled and waved. She was walking straight toward me, which is why I didn’t see another feature that dress was advertising, prominently. I did notice there was something amiss with her waistline, but I was too busy drinking in her face and chest to be bothered with trying to figure that out.
In fact, it wasn’t until she hugged me that I realized there was something between us inhibiting the hug.
I pushed her away with my hands on her shoulders, and looked down.
Now I could see what that dress was advertising.
She was clearly pregnant.
And, while I wasn’t an expert in these matters, I was pretty sure she’d been pregnant for at least two or three months.
“Surprise,” she said, softly.
I blinked. I swallowed. I turned my head to look for something to sit down on before I collapsed because my knees felt like jelly.
“When did this happen?” I asked, weakly.
“I think you know when this happened,” she said. “You’d better know when this happened.”
“But you didn’t tell me.”
“What could you have done about it if I had?”
I stared at the bulge that was my first child. Something began to expand inside of me that I was pretty sure would fill me up to overflowing and might cause me to burst into pieces.
“I could have celebrated!“ I said.
“So ... this is a celebration?” She moved her hands to smooth over the bulge.
“You bet your sweet ass it is!” I exclaimed. Several people looked our way. I’d said “ass” pretty loudly.
“I’m glad,” she said. “I have to admit I was a little worried.”
“Worried? About what?” My voice was still much too loud, and she pushed me backwards towards a wall, farther away from the carousel.
“I was a worried that all that stuff you told me while we were making this baby was just role playing.”
“Stuff?” My voice rose. “That wasn’t stuff. That was me, pouring my heart out to you!” My voice rose even more.
“Okay, okay. I’m sorry. Caitlin was right. She yelled at me for not telling you, but I was too scared.”
“Caitlin.” My voice got soft very suddenly. I looked to both sides of us, as if I thought someone might be trying to eavesdrop. They hadn’t had to try to eavesdrop prior to this, because I was yelling most of the time. “Is she ... ?”
“Pregnant?” Hannah’s voice was dry. “No, Bob. Half satyr that you are, you did not knock up both of the Anderson girls in the space of two weeks. Geesh, Bob. Give me a break, here.”
“I’m sorry,” I said. “I’m just so ... surprised.”
“And I’m surprised that you’re surprised. You sure tried hard enough to do this. I thought you’d call me and ask if I’d had a period or not, but you never did. And then I missed my second one, and Caitlin said I should tell you, but I wanted to wait until the lab test was done. Then I was afraid you’d be unhappy. Caitlin says I’m a big chicken.”
“Tastes like chicken,” I said. It just popped out.
“What?”
“Nothing. Sorry. I want to eat you up right now. You look so beautiful ... and that’s my baby ... our baby. I’m not unhappy. Are you surprised? Of course you’re surprised. You already said you were afraid I’d be unhappy. But I’m not. In fact, I don’t think I’ve ever been this happy in my whole life. I’m babbling, aren’t I?”
“Yes.” She was grinning, and even though there was no outward sign of it, I could sense her relaxing.
I reached for her again, and pulled her against me.
“I love you. Do you love me?”
She giggled. “That sounds like a song I heard one time, about a note that was passed in class.”
“You like country music?” I gaped.
“I like all kinds of music,” she said. “Besides, you recognized it, so that means you listen to it too.”
“Never mind that,” I said. “That’s our baby,” I said, pushing against her bump just enough that she could tell I was doing it. I didn’t want to hurt the baby. “And I love you, and right now I’m kind of desperate to hear you tell me you love me too.”
“I do,” she whispered against my lips. “The world does not approve.”
“Fuck the world,” I whispered back.
“No, don’t do that,” she said.
She pressed back and kissed me gently.
“You fucked me ... and look what happened.”
We collected her luggage, and left. That was good, because it was all I could do to keep myself from standing behind her and reaching around with both hands to cup her bulge. Just as incest is frowned on, fondling a pregnant woman’s belly in public is frowned on too. I don’t know who all those people were who did the original frowning, but I wish I could go back in time and burn their eyebrows off. They made a bunch of rules on a whim that the rest of us are saddled with today.
Hannah didn’t want to waste any time. By that, I mean her first priority was to take care of business, so we could go home to my house and ... well ... take care of business, if you get my drift.
She called the realtor on her cell phone, and arranged to meet her at our first destination, which turned out to be a two acre plot of land notched into a wheat field. It had a farmhouse on it, surrounded by a wind break of trees that had been allowed to grow wildly. Some of the trees had died as a result. There were a few pieces of rusty farm machinery lying around in tall grass.
The house was two stories, with a tall attic area that had a dormer in it, which meant it might have been turned into quasi living space at some time in the past. The house didn’t matter, though, because I knew Hannah wanted new construction, and that meant the house would come down.
“What do you think?” she asked.
“It will be dusty during planting season and harvest,” I said. “The road shouldn’t cause too much problem with dust because the prevailing winds will blow it away from the property. The trees will help with the wind, but some of them are in bad shape and need to be replaced.”
“Why would I care about some old trees around the edge of the property?”
“Because the wind blows every day in Oklahoma,” I said. “It’s a constant in every Okie’s life. If you don’t learn to love that, it can drive you crazy.”
“Oh,” she said. “So no matter where I buy, it will be windy?”
“Every day,” I confirmed.
As if to punctuate the conversation, a gust of wind whipped up the hem of her dress, and showed me some thigh. She saw me looking.
“Satyr,” she snorted.
“You ain’t seen nothing yet,” I said. “Just wait until I get you home. You’ll feel like a nudist by the time you leave.”
“Caitlin told me how she and the girls used to stay naked all day long.”
She had delivered that in an inflection free voice. Nor had there been any visual clues, that I could see, anyway, which gave me any information about how she felt about that. We were going to raise a baby. That was already firm in my brain, by that time. So good communication was going to be critical.
“How’d you feel about that?” I asked.
She raised one eyebrow, which made her look a little imperious.
“I was jealous.”
“Ahhh,” I said. “Not to worry. There won’t be any bevy of naked girls cavorting in your new pool.”
“That’s not true,” she said. “At least, according to Caitlin.”
“Tell me more,” I said. “That must have been an interesting conversation.”
“She says I can have you, but I have to share you ... occasionally.”
“You’re kidding.”
“I am not kidding. My own daughter has turned into a bully ... a hooligan .... a gangster. She threatened to blackmail me!”
“I’ll spank her the next time I see her,” I said, tightly.
“She’d just enjoy it,” said Hannah, carelessly. “I’m not worried about her. It was funny, actually. I made sure not to laugh at her, though. I didn’t want to hurt her feelings.”
“Why not? She was way out of line.”
“I don’t want her mad at me. I want her terrified of me.”
“Uh oh,” I said. “What did you do?”
“I told her if she gave me any trouble, I’d give the baby up for adoption, and tell the world about you and her, and you and me.”
“Wow,” I said. I knew she’d never do that under any circumstances, and that it was a bluff. “The nuclear option, right out of the box.”
“Like I said, I wanted her terrified.”
“So, did she buy it?”
“She broke down and sobbed. It was so sad. She begged me to forgive her. That poor girl loves you as much as I do.”
“So what happened then?”
“Then we sat down and talked about things. It was kind of liberating, actually. We’d never talked about all of this, not in detail. I knew quite a bit already about you and your ... um ... musketeers ... from back when I first got there, and she was trying to convince me that what she was doing was okay. But since then we had never had an actual discussion about how we felt about you and ... um ... details.”
“Details?”
“Come on. Guys describe what they did with a woman to other guys.”
“Oh,” I said. For some strange reason, the thought of the two of them exchanging war stories of me in bed made blood start gravitating into my penis.
“It was good,” she said. “It cleared the air.”
“So no bevy of naked girls?” I tried to make my voice sound tragic.
“Does two count as a bevy?”
“Which two?” I asked.
“What do you mean which two?” She was outraged.
“Well, it could be Caitlin and Emma, or Caitlin and Ashley, or Ashley and Emma,” I complained. “Not that it matters. I like them all. It would just be nice to know.”
She goggled at me. “You are a fucking satyr!” she yelped. “Caitlin and me, you son of a bitch!”
“Oh,” I said, trying to put on a pedantic air. “Well, I guess that’s acceptable.”
I saw her about to explode and put my index finger against her lips to forestall that.
“Turns out we both bluff pretty well, huh?”
“Asshole,” she grumbled, relaxing.
“I believe the proper form of that address is, ‘Asshole who I am hopelessly in love with,’” I said.
“Asshole,” she said again, but she smiled.
“Seriously,” I said. “You caved?”
“Caved to what?”
“Letting Caitlin ... um ... you know ... with me.”
“Share you? It doesn’t extend quite to that level.”
“What level does it extend to?”
“She’s going to live in the dorm the first year of college. She can come visit as often as she wants, but she’ll have to decide carefully whether she wants to play with you or not.”
“Why?”
“Because I’m not going to allow her to use birth control, unless she has a boyfriend.”
“That sounds complicated,” I said. “That really must have been an interesting discussion.”
“It’s not complicated at all,” she said. “That she loves you is fine. Wonderful, in fact. I want her to love you. But she has no future with you in the role of husband, or quasi husband. She needs to find a nice young man to produce grandchildren for me. If she’s actually trying to do that, then birth control is fine, until she finds the right man, and they want to start a family. But I’m not going to let you be her living dildo, which she can have any time she feels like it. If she wants me to give some of you up, then there need to be potential ramifications involved. Ergo, no birth control. Every time she decides to sleep with you, she’ll know that you could be doing to her, what you did to me.”
“She’s eighteen,” I reminded Hannah.
“Of course she is, and she has the right to make up her own mind. But I have the right to control some of what she wants, and she either plays by my rules, or she doesn’t get to play at all. Not with you, anyway.”
“Do you have any idea how unconventional all this is?” I asked, stunned by what she’d just said.
“Of course,” she said. “But we only have two choices, here. One is to never do that with you again, and try to resume a way of life which the world could approve of. The other is to adapt to what has happened, do the best we can to protect our interests, and try to find some happiness in the process.”
“I have to say, that sounds a little mercenary.”
“Why?”
“Protect our own interests?”
“That’s how the world works, Bob,” she said, seriously. “I’m pregnant with your baby. I want to raise that child as my own. You’re new to this children thing, but pretty soon you’re going to find out that you’ll do anything to protect your offspring. Anything!”
“What happens if Caitlin decides to chance things at the wrong time?” I asked.
“Then we’ll have to adapt to that,” she said. “I did.”
“Yes, but your options are a little better than hers would be.”
“That’s true, and that’s one of the things we talked about.”
“I don’t know if this kind of ... arrangement ... is a good idea,” I said.
“Suddenly you’re monogamous?”
“I’ve always been monogamous,” I said.
“Couldn’t tell it from what I walked in on.”
“That was different. That was just three girls exploring their sexuality.”
“And what if those three girls want to explore what it’s like to be pregnant?”
I laughed.
“First off, I seriously doubt that any of them want to have my baby. Second, at least two of them have already forgotten me. I’ve seen Emma a few times since then, and Ashley once, but all of that was just in passing. Neither of them came to my door begging for more. You seem to think I have some special power over women, but that’s not true at all. I hadn’t had sex in over two years before the girls decided to explore. Women don’t flock to me, and I’m a little picky about the women I’d risk having a baby with.”
“You exposed all three of those girls to your sperm,” she said.
“That’s true,” I said. “I lost control. I admit it. But that’s over. There is no group of three girls flaunting it in front of me anymore. There is no bevy of beauties cavorting around my pool. And I hope soon to sell my house and not have a pool at all, because I hope desperately that you’ll let me design a room for me in your new house.”
“What about my pool?” asked Hannah. “What if they want to prance naked around my pool?”
“Are you trying to make this difficult for me?” I moaned.
“Not at all,” she said. “Just as I wanted Caitlin to understand that life can be complicated, I want to make sure you understand that this relationship could get complicated too.”
“It’s not complicated enough?” I groaned.
“I’ve already thought about what to do with you,” she said, ignoring my question. “You will not have your own room. We will have our bedroom. But there will be guest rooms, though, and it’s conceivable you might sleep in one of them ... occasionally.”
“I do not believe this,” I sighed.
“Well, you’d better get used to the idea,” she said.
She looked up at the car speeding down the road towards us, kicking up a rooster tail of dust.
“You caused it.”
Penny Mac-something or other was Hannah’s realtor. I didn’t know a lot of realtors. In fact, I only knew one. But I’d seen the caricatures of them on TV, and Penny could have played any of those roles to perfection. She was bouncy, and positive, and vivacious, and had an armful of clipboard with dozens of pieces of paper on it that pertained to all the properties she was going to try to sell to Hannah.
Hannah introduced me as “My friend, Bob,” which got a calculating glance at me. I never saw her look at Hannah’s bulge, but I know she was aware of it, because she adapted her sales pitch to include “your new baby.”
It was a long afternoon. We visited four sites, varying between the farmhouse I already told you about, which was on one point seven acres of land, to a twenty-five acre plot of rolling hills that had washouts and ravines on it that exposed the stark red subsoil that Oklahoma is known for.
We made arrangements to meet her to see two more places the next day.
“Where are you staying?” she asked, all bubbly and helpful. “I can get you a discount at the Ramada.”
“Bob has a house in Chickasha, with a very nice guest room for me,” said Hannah.
“Oh! He really is just a friend. I’m sorry. I thought ...” She didn’t say it, but her meaning was obvious.
“He’s my architect,” said Hannah. “I’ve known him for years.”
“Oh. How nice. Well, splendid, then. I’ll see you tomorrow morning.”
We followed Penny back to Interstate 40, and stayed behind her as she headed toward Oklahoma City. She had a lead foot, though, and was out of sight before we got to 240 and I turned onto it to get to I-44.
We were home forty minutes later, which probably seems like a long time for a man who is in heat, but I plied her with questions about the intimacies she and Caitlin had shared. It was fascinating, because it turned out that some of those intimacies were about Hannah and Chad, and the things Hannah had learned in her marriage. Those parts she just referred to in that manner, saying that the details were private. l didn’t argue, or point out that they weren’t private when it came to Caitlin. I wasn’t going to pry. I felt incredibly lucky, and I wanted to do only things that would help the relationship flourish.
When we got home, Hannah wanted to take a shower. This time, when I stepped in with her, she didn’t resist in any way at all. I have no idea how long we stood there, with me behind her, my boner trapped between her thighs, while my soapy hands moved from her breasts to her bulging abdomen. She just lay her head back on my shoulder and purred.
Like many men who are “virgins” when it comes to pregnant women, I assumed making love would involve all sorts of precautions. When she lay back on the bed and spread her legs, exposing her protruding pudendum to me, I assumed she wanted oral love.
So I gave her some. I was surprised when she tasted different than Caitlin, but I didn’t tell her that. She was different from Kat in other ways too, in this scenario. Caitlin grabbed my hair and pulled hard, trying to get as much pressure on her clit as possible from my face, lips, teeth, whatever. But Hannah just toyed with my hair, letting her fingertips slip through it while she sighed and expressed in little snippets of sentences how happy she was that I was doing that I was doing.
It was fun, because I had time to pull her pussy lips apart with my fingers and expose her clit. Then I was able to circle it with the tip of my tongue, and lap at it like a dog, and suck it between my lips. Her hips bumped, and her belly rippled, and I got one of those comments that let me know she was happy.
Then, suddenly her fingers tugged at my hair.
“I want you in me, now,” she sighed.
She pulled as I crawled up, unsure of how to do what she wanted.
“I don’t want to crush the baby,” I whispered.
“The baby is the size of a lemon right now. You won’t hurt her by lying on top of me.”
“All that bulge, and she’s just a lemon?”
“Shut up, Bob. I don’t want to talk about the baby. I want to recreate making her.”
So I slid in and, other than there being some pressure against my abdomen, it was just like making love before.
An hour later, I was on my back and Hannah was riding me, rocking back and forth.
“You want to know something?” she asked, panting slightly.
“Sure,” I said.
“I never did it this way before you.”
“Really?”
“Chad was a big believer in the missionary position,” she said.
“Oh,” I said.
“Caitlin said I had to try it.”
“Good grief,” I sighed.
“She was right, too.”
At that point she bent forward just a little more and started thrashing her hips, chasing an orgasm. When it arrived I pinched her nipples and found something else that she and Caitlin had in cmmon. I could feel the pulsations of her pussy go crazy as I squeezed and tugged the nipples that would, in just a few short months, spurt milk for our baby to grow on.
She was all business when we met Penny the next morning. She didn’t talk to me at all, unless she had a question about how something might affect the building of the house. Penny had been solicitous towards me the day before, trying to sell me the property too, but today she ignored me as well.
In the end, Hannah decided on a seven point two acre piece of land on the corner of a section. It, too, had been a farmstead at one time, but the house itself had fallen in. It had several outbuildings that were still in good shape, and a creek running through the property about half a mile from the house site. Trees had volunteered, and blanketed the property. Many would probably need to be removed, to encourage the growth and health of others, but there was good potential there for having a cool, shady place to walk, where the wind would only frisk between the trees, and rush overhead.
It was on a corner, which increased the dust issue, but I suggested that the house could be built anywhere, and not close to the road, as the fallen down one had been.
That decision having been made, we returned to Penny’s office to start the paperwork. It turned out Hannah did not need a loan. She’d put Chad’s life insurance into high yield bonds, which had done very well indeed. Then, sensing some danger, she’d taken the money out of the risky arena, and put it into oil and gas investments. She happened to choose a broker who was excited about oil development in North Dakota.
So she had the cash to buy the property and build the house, assuming we didn’t go hog wild on the house.
Of course I had some money too.
So we ended up going hog wild on the house.
I knew people locally, who were in the building trade, and who wanted me, a successful architect, to refer customers to them. Consequently, I was able to get all but some of the interior finish done by the time Hannah arrived with Timothy Raymond Simmons, our healthy, bouncing son.
I guess I glossed over that part. It occurs to me you might be interested in how he came to be a Simmons, instead of being an Anderson.
And if you’re not interested, then skip ahead a few paragraphs.
I worked on getting the house built, while Hannah stayed in California and worked on building a baby, who turned out to be a boy, instead of the girl Hannah was convinced was so active in her belly. She’d had ultrasounds, but had told the doctor she only wanted information that required some treatment plan. About week thirty-nine, I left the new house in the tender care of Rick Salisbury, our general contractor, and flew out to Santa Barbara to be there for the birth.
Hove to, a sailing boat makes very slow progress towards the wind. There's a sort of dynamic stability, with sails and helm deliberately set to maintain a small angle to the wind. Overall, it can mean the boat moving forward over the ground, or back; you have to experience it to understand, really. The point is, facing into the weather, with wind and sea on one bow (usually starboard, right, because of the 'rules of the road') the boat is relatively safe and stable. It just pitches up and...
I watched Eva cover up ... barely ... with the minimum fabric acceptable in polite society. She was ... very pretty, and, I supposed, unconsciously sexy. I sighed, thinking of the situation we were in and began to dress, myself. I followed her out of the cabin to the cockpit where Grace had cold meat, cheese, rice and potato salads, with grated carrot and coleslaw. We ate, mostly, in silence, then over tea or coffee, pored over the Blackwater chart. We were faced with a dead beat to...
We left Brixham early in the morning of the twenty-ninth, under power to run over the rising tide. The wind had veered a little and dropped; the barometer also dropping a little as the high-pressure system reluctantly moved away north-east. Evania watched as we made our way out of the harbour, but went back to her cabin once we cleared the breakwater. I had offered a day or two at anchor in Fishcombe cove, just outside the harbour. It looked as though, and I was told it was, quite a good...
When my niece caught me staring at her exposed vagina, she didn't say anything. Neither of us did. And that's not odd. How do you start that conversation? "Hmmm. Quite a nice little pussy you have there, Caitlin," I could open, suavely. "Why thank you, Uncle Bob," she might say, sweetly. "I notice you're as bald as a baby's butt down there," I'd continue. "Well, I do wear the tiniest of bikinis," she'd explain. "Looks really delicious. Do you suppose it might be possible...
I woke at four to the bleeping of my watch, and slipped out of bed without bothering with lights, grabbed fleece trousers, socks and pullover, and made my way forward, through the cockpit to the saloon. There I started a kettle to boil in the galley and dressed. I made myself coffee and filled two flasks with boiling water – not that it'd stay boiling for long, but better than nothing – before starting to prepare to get under way. As it happened I was in the cockpit when Grace emerged from...
Of course, we had to separate and tend to the boat. The wind veered more – it was near enough north-west – and dropped until Serendipity was no longer making steerage-way. Some boats, Serendipity for one, when this happens, gradually spin round until they are facing directly into the wind; it has to do with the balance of the sails and the centre of pressure of the hull in the water. We were sitting in the cockpit, sipping Rooibos tea and watching the sunset when I sheeted out the mizzen so...
Leaving Dun Laoghaire at seven a.m., we headed, close-hauled, roughly south-east. Mid-morning, out of sight of land, Grace disappeared into our cabin for a few minutes. When she re-appeared, even the skimpy shorts and cropped top she'd been wearing had gone. She handed me the sun-screen with a smile. I glanced from her face to Evania at the wheel and back again. She winked. I shrugged and began smoothing lotion on her back, then her arms and legs. I lingered on her slowly growing bump,...
Eva, with Jim in tow, met us at twelve-thirty in the Porthole Restaurant; we were sitting by a window with a good view down the quay. Jim seemed to hang back. We stood and I stepped up to Jim with hand outstretched. "It seems congratulations are in order." He relaxed and took my hand. "I wasn't sure how you'd take it..." "I'm delighted. You've nothing to fear as long as you do the right thing. When's the big day?" He looked at Eva, who replied, "Saturday, fourteenth of...
Berwick is an ancient walled town just by the English/Scottish border, redolent with history. The harbour is actually on the wrong side of the river for the town which has spread, as you'd expect, far outside the old walls. We had a bit of a walk to get into the old town and we were tottering a bit. When you've been on a boat in rough weather, you feel the land is moving about under your feet when you do finally make harbour, but we managed. She slipped her hand into mine as we crossed the...
I could not believe that she managed to get out of bed without disturbing me, but she woke me with coffee ... blessed, life-giving fluid. She'd cleaned her teeth and used mouthwash, kissed me despite my morning breath, and sat beside me with her ... what? Sniff ... Earl Grey? "I think I'd like to go to Bridie's church," she said, "do you mind? Will you come with me?" "I don't suppose it'll kill me," I said, "no, I don't mind and yes, I will." It was interesting ... and quite...
Showering together was definitely going to have a high priority in the Quinton household. After a morning 'quickie' ... well, not so quick ... it was both very enjoyable and rather necessary. Not to mention much quicker and easier than a sponge-down in a cabin at sea. So good, too, to have fresh milk for us to have with our muesli, so much easier as well to have the space and equipment that enabled us to have different breakfasts. One thing that did carry over from our habits at sea was...
Despite her late night and growing baby bump, Eva was up well before us and sparkling with life. She'd obviously listened out for sounds of activity, as she had coffee freshly made and ladled out scrambled eggs onto toast as we sat at the table. "Have a good time last night?" I asked, picking up my coffee. Her smile broadened even more. "Mmmm." Grace and I looked at each other. Grace had a little smile that told me she knew at least a little more than she'd told me last night, but...
The surgeon saw me after breakfast. "You were lucky," he told me seriously, "you need to thank the person who called for help and got you airlifted here. Straightforward op, no complications and you should heal up fine. Drink plenty, steady on the alcohol and plenty of roughage. You really don't want constipation. Most of the stitches are absorb-able, but the external ones will need to be taken out in a week..." "My charter is a Registered Nurse," I told him, "it was she who called...
I was working when they stopped in my doorway. I looked up to see three living statues of the Venus De Milo. With arms. Their nudity was astonishing, because it was erotic and mundane at the same time. They were comfortable being naked in front of me, which made it mundane in the way nudists claim being naked is simply natural, without any necessary sexual component. At the same time, they were beautiful, and ripe, the very essence of female sexuality. “We’re going to the pool now,” said...
You hear about how makeup sex is really great. But you have to remember that all generalizations are bad ... including this one. The fact is that even after a minor argument, like the one we'd just had, becoming intimate again can be a little weird. Maybe complicated is a better word. Part of that is because the emotional level you're on after a disagreement has you in fight or flight mode. That doesn't lend itself to being all lovey dovey, for obvious reasons. Another component is that,...
Things did not get out of control. Well, any more than they’d already gotten out of control. I don’t mean that I fucked Emma (or Ashley) that day. Ashley did have to get home, after all, and while Emma was quite happy sucking on my prong, I don’t think she was ready for the real deal. I probably could have talked her into it, but when she got me hard with her mouth, which took quite a long time, I knew I could not perform as well as she deserved. Plus I didn’t want to talk her into it. So...
Deciding to do something completely crazy is one thing. Making actual preparations is something else. More than once, as I put plan B into action, I thought I must be insane. Some things went very well. I talked to one of the local realtors, who hooked me up with one of her colleagues in Lubbock. Both of them worked their end of things. My house sold almost immediately. The buyer wanted to move in right away, but I put in the contract that I'd pay them rent until I found a new house....
Ashley loosened up after that, returning to the rest hand in hand with me, and no longer pensive. And that loosened the other two musketeers up as well. I almost laughed when Emma, sensing Ashley's comfort level had improved, said "Let's get this show on the road!" There was only one more glitch in the event. That happened when we moved to my bedroom. The girls got naked, giggling nervously, but when we piled onto the bed, it became evident that a queen sized bed wasn't going to hack...
Hannah had, at one time, had a job that required her to travel a lot. And whenever she came close to Oklahoma, she stopped in to see me. She stayed, in fact, in Caitlin's room. So I had given her a key, all those years back. And when her job changed, and she didn't leave California any more, she had just kept it. I had been driving Caitlin back home for several years now, and the stories she told her mother when she got back, about the things we'd done, and the places we'd seen, made...
"I'm really sorry," I said, as an opening. "Oh, can it," she said. "You're a man. All three of them are babes. You don't have a sorry bone in your body." "That's not true," I said. "If this causes pain between us for the rest of our lives, I'll be sorry for the rest of my life too. I love you." She stared at me for a few seconds, and then looked around. "Not here," she said. I didn't know what she meant. She looked toward the kitchen. "There," she said, but I didn't...
There was a tightness to the atmosphere when I got back to the kitchen. I know that seems like a "Gee ... ya think?" kind of comment, but I want you to think about it like this. Imagine standing on the street, getting ready to cross, when with no notice, a car swerves around the corner and somebody starts shooting at you out of the window as it roars past. You don't get hit. Okay, now imagine the same scenario, but when that car roars around the corner, there is no shooter. Instead, the...
You cannot kiss a woman and look sideways to see what another woman is doing. Not and make the kiss convincing. And I was pretty sure that kiss needed to be convincing. She didn't try to eat my mouth, or anything like that. She just kissed me. And I kissed her back. I kept my hands off of her, which I thought was a good touch. We broke the kiss to find that other woman standing right beside us. The two women glared at each other. "Go put something on," said Hannah. "What if I...
We went to breakfast, and the world almost seemed normal. After that, it was back to Old Town, to finish up shopping. I got my kaleidoscope, which made me almost giddy. I can still sit and look through that thing for an hour at a time. The women shopped for jewelry and pots. Hannah bought a leather vest made of buckskin that was soft and smelled delightful. She also found some kind of hot sauce that was reputed to be able to melt the spoon you stirred it with, if you left it in too long. I...
"Well finally!" Caitlin crowed, as she saw her mother and me in a torrid embrace. That turned out to be a mistake, because suddenly it was over. Either Kat's appearance, or her cheeky comment, had shot holes in the balloon of our passion, and let it seep out. Her hands returned to my chest and pushed, but only gently. She looked a little dazed. "That's how I feel about you," I said, softly. "I just wanted you to know." "Okay," she said, her voice high. I think Caitlin realized...
Again, I completely missed the satisfied look on her face when she hobbled onto the patio as I took the meat off the grill. “Can I do anything?” she asked. “Test the potatoes,” I said, pointing to the contraption I had that helped bake a potato in half the time. It was made of metal and had wide, flat projections going upwards that pressed deep into the tuber. The metal conducted heat into the center of the potato while the outside cooked by radiant heat. She picked up the paring knife I’d...
"You're naked," I whispered. "You are too," she whispered back. "I can't find my shorts," I complained. "Go to sleep!" she hissed. "But we're naked," I said, unnecessarily. "Go - to - sleep!" she growled. So I lay down on my bag, because it was too warm to get inside it. She gave me maybe fifteen seconds before I found out it was all an act. Suddenly, she rolled and landed half on top of me. "Maybe just one little orgasm," she murmured into my lips. And then she...
Caitlin did not, in fact, bring up the change in our sexual lives again for four hours. We had parked to hike a trail, and then stopped at two tourist traps to browse the trinkets they sold and stare into a big box full of rattle snakes. It was covered with a wire grid on top, and was a good four feet tall. Some of the snakes rattled when I looked down into it. Kat said she wasn't interested in disturbing "the poor captive snakes, who probably miss their wives and little snaky...
We slept late again that morning. "I'm going to go take a shower," she said. "Please don't pack up the bed before I get back." "If all we do is make love, we'll never get to all the places on the list," I pointed out. She pouted. "Ohhh, all right." So, again, I had us packed up with only breakfast out when she returned from the shower house with wet hair. "I met Clyde," she said. "Oh?" "He's Mabel's husband." "Oh." "He asked me if I was with you of my own free...
We lay there for ten minutes after we finished having amazing sex, just breathing. Then she got up and put on the same clothes. "I hope dinner didn't burn," she said, worried. "It was worth it if it did," I said. "Thank you, Sir," she dimpled. "Let's eat, and then I want to go swimming again." "That reminds me," I said. "I need to tell you what I told them about us." "You told them about us?" she asked, arching an eyebrow. "I had to tell them something. You were like a...
There are uncomfortable situations. And then there are uncomfortable situations. Hannah, for her part, simply turned around and left the room. With the suitcase still in hand. We had stopped kissing, of course. Both our startled faces had turned toward the open door. Our hands were frozen in place. “Shit!” whispered Caitlin, and she slid sideways as I stepped back. She darted out the door, running after her mother. I stood there. I mean, really, what do you do in that situation? Where...
Hannah was saved from more trauma by the arrival of the food. We got to meet Robin in the process, since she helped bring it all to our table. Robin was no hag either. Her white outfit hid her body, and her chef's hat hid her hair, but her face suggested the same fine genes as those Julie had inherited. She had my order in one hand, and eyes that were greener than any I had seen before pinned me in my seat. "You would be the virgin, Bob, from Oklahoma, yes? You look like a veal kind of...
Caitlin wasn't up when breakfast was served the next morning. "Served" is the wrong word, really. I slept late too, but when my body woke up "late" I was in California instead of back home, and I woke up just in time for breakfast in California. When I wandered into the kitchen, Hannah and Phil were just sitting down, and invited me to join them. I got a cup of coffee and a banana from the counter and sat down. Phil was reading the paper and commenting to no one in particular about...
It took two more days. Her friends seemed to get over it sooner than she did. By that, I mean that the next day they were right back at the house, trooping in without knocking, like they lived there. Of course it wasn't their pussies that I'd gawked at, so I suppose that wasn't surprising. The afternoon of the second day, Emma had to leave early for some kind of family get together, and Ashley left with her, saying her parents were going out to dinner that night and she had to babysit....
"So ... what do we do next?" I asked. Having basically given my niece permission to make an official pervert of me, I also wanted to make sure she had the full opportunity of controlling both me and events in general. She looked thoughtful, and I realized that, while she'd had a "plan" for the night, it wasn't nearly as well fleshed out as it could have been. Having been young myself once, and knowing how little confidence most young people have, it's quite possible that she didn't...
It was clear to me. It would have been just as clear to that disinterested observer I mentioned earlier. Juvenile or not, my almost-but-not-quite eighteen-year-old niece knew exactly what she wanted. Or at least what she thought she wanted. Things get muddy when you bring ethics into it, so I didn't. I decided, completely arbitrarily, that she was a big girl now and she was capable on both a cerebral and emotional level of making this decision for herself. Besides, I had a stiff prick and...
For all the rationalizing I had been doing, it became clear to me very quickly (when I was invited to bring the camera) that I am a pervert, plain and simple. How do I know? It’s simple. Not once did I exert any effort towards trying to talk myself out of going in there. I could have left the house and driven around for a month, cooling down. But I didn’t do that. What I did do was get the camera and report for duty as a photographer in roughly three minutes. Nor did I wait in the bedroom....
As you can imagine, our relationship had completely changed. And in a period of only twenty-four hours. Prior to this, we had each kind of done our own thing for most of the day, spending maybe two or three hours actually interacting with each other. More than once, in the past, I'd wondered why she wanted to come to my house for what she called her "vacation", because a lot of the time she just lay on her bed reading, or watched TV or went for runs or whatever. Now, of course, I knew...
It was two days before the front door opened and the now two musketeers came in just like always. I was at the computer, working. I'd neglected work for the last week. I thought I had a pretty good excuse, but still, I needed to catch things up. When I heard them come in I got up and went to the door of my office. "Hey," I said in greeting. "What's up?" "Swimming," said Ashley. "Ahhh," I said. "Have fun." "Can we use Kat's room to change?" "Sure," I said. "Come swim...
I think I gave a sigh of relief when school started, and my days were no longer interrupted by girls who wanted to get naked with me. Plus the weather got cool, and with the wind that's constant in Oklahoma, it felt even cooler. Everybody started wearing clothing that covered them up, including Emma and Ashley. I had about a month of relief until they showed up one night asking if they could do homework at my house, because there were too many distractions at their own homes. What they...
Some of you no doubt believe our relationship was doomed to failure, either because of the age difference, or because society would hound me for what some would consider molesting my niece, or maybe because you're convinced she would be seduced by some young stud. But the thing that worried me the most with our relationship was that her parents weren't aware of it. Oh, my sister knew her daughter liked me a lot. She might even have suspected Caitlin had a schoolgirl crush on her Uncle Bob....
It should have taken two years to design and build the structure Caitlin and I drew the plans for, for the new company, as yet un-named, that would come into existence. But two things sped that process up. The first was that the funding was already there, and contractors could be told to begin work as soon as possible. The second was that, until that structure was completed, all of us were crammed in what had seemed like a fairly large house, before Kat and I got married. Now, with four...
There had been a shocked silence as I suggested something much more interesting than had already happened might be in store for them. "What do you mean?" Ashley asked, warily. "Shut up and get your pretty little ass over here," I ordered. Don't ask me why I took that path. I just did. Maybe my subconscious mind thought a little domination was what they were used to in a male, and what they would respond to. I wasn't thinking about that consciously, exactly. I just reacted to the...
When Caitlin declined my offer to teach her to jerk me off, that seemed to end the festivities for the day. The girls got out and went into the house to do whatever it was that they did after swimming. Usually, in this situation, they ran, and were yelling as they did so. Their quiet walk convinced me they were all thinking about what had happened. I wished I could somehow hear into Kat's room. That was a conversation that I would have bet serious money would be most interesting. Sometimes...
It was late when I finally finished for the day. I'd gotten a lot done and I was happy with the progress. The meeting had gone well and I had just incorporated all of the changes into the design of the project. I had told them it would take a week, so now I would have plenty of time to review it and make sure all the i's were dotted and the t's crossed. As I was leaving the office, I was confronted with three girls. "We want to do a midnight swim," said Caitlin. "Will you come with...
The girls had retired to Kat's room. There was something said about Ashley needing to clean up, but I think that was a convenient excuse. She could have just jumped in the pool. And Emma's sigh of "I need to lie down for a little bit," didn't quite ring true. If anything, she'd already gotten her strength back, with a little extra thrown in. She was bright and bubbly and happy which, I have to admit, made me feel a lot better. Rather, I think they just wanted to discuss what had...
When I woke up the next morning, I immediately knew something was terribly wrong. That's because Caitlin was still in bed with me. I felt a little like I had a hangover, even though I hadn't had a drop to drink. There had been more orgasms for Kat, and another for me as she sucked on my prong. The last thing I remembered was being in a fond embrace, kissing her over and over. And now, here we were. Obviously we'd drifted off, lying in each other's arms. Caitlin would soon wake up and...
I knew Caitlin would want to sleep with me again that night. I should say I expected her to want to do that. And when she came to my room, naked, I felt compelled to do something about it. "Sweetheart, you have no idea how good it makes me feel that you want to do these things with me and sleep in my bed, but that is a very bad idea tonight." "Because you want more," she said. I was astonished. For someone so young, she was very astute. "Yes," I said. "I understand," she said....
We had two more hours to settle down before the other two musketeers showed up. Even so, the change that had taken place was so big, or fundamental or whatever, that they sensed a difference almost right away. At least when it came to Kat. The girls stopped to give me a quick hug and kiss and then, apparently sensing nothing from me, went into the kitchen where Kat was making chocolate chip cookies. "What happened to you?" I heard Ashley ask. I went to stand in the doorway and...
Perhaps it was serendipity, two people in the right place at the right time for everything to fall into place. On this warm summer day, John had a lot of time on his hands to kill, and nothing really essential to do with it. So he went into his local town without a plan. On a whim, he decided to buy some new jeans. Not that he actually needed them but fancied a change, and this would fill in the empty interval between lunch and the evening. He did a little window-shopping, and quickly...
Straight SexThe following is a happy little story; I guess it has to be considered 'R' since it has a TG aspect. A happily married couple have sex *blush*, but it isn't explicitly described, and body parts are mentioned *double blush*. My heartfelt thanks goes to the real Teddi Sue for translating my English into Standard English, and her friendship. Thanks to Brandy Dewinter for her story 'Reasonable' - this story is a twist on the best. This is a work of fiction. Any resemblance to...
Saturday, 17th April, At anchor off Lindisfarne Island. Normally, I'm easily woken. Especially when my bed-partner leaves it, but I woke to the smell of coffee and when I opened my eyes, saw the mug was held out to me by a naked and smiling Grace. "There's a sight for sore eyes. You keep thinking of different ways of making waking up worthwhile," I smiled. "I hope you're planning on coming back to bed while I drink this," as I hunched up the bed, leaned back on a pillow and took the...
We didn't get a flat calm in the Irish Sea, what we got was almost worse; light, cyclonic winds, fickle in direction and strength. So the last thirty miles or so, we stowed the sails and carried on under power. It was, however, late afternoon before we had topped off with diesel and drinking water, were berthed in one of the fifteen metre berths and had checked in with the marina office. We made a bee-line for the showers before sorting out our supper, over which we discussed our stay in...
JP led a dull and boring life. Nothing exciting ever happened to him. At 26, he managed to scrap past college and worked a 9 – 5 in a cubicle at a non-descript building. Sometimes he felt his life was like Neo in the Matrix before Neo swallowed the pill. Fortunately the dress code was casual and JP could wear comfortable clothes. His boss left him alone as long as he got his work done. He didn’t see anybody and only interacted with his computer screen. JP enjoyed working out to keep...
Does fate exist? Can something really happen by coincidence? Well, my name is Emma and I don’t think I’d ever given much thought to the issue until one wintry night in Edinburgh, when a potentially problematical mistake led to something rather special. These days, as a result, I do believe in fate and that everything happens for a reason. Let me tell you what happened... ~~~~~It was snowing a little as my taxi drew up outside my hotel. I paid the driver and dragged my suitcase into reception,...
LesbianOne day, I was at Tunbridge station and due to very thickfog, all the trains were running really late and way off schedule and so my connecting train to Canterbury West was running at least an hour or so late, and as it was a real pea-souper (like in the old black and white films) I made my way into an already packed out canteen. In those days, one could smoke inside the station canteens and the cigarette smoke hung thickly in the air and all I wanted was a good old cup of tea and a British...
You know my friends used to say I was a real bad ass in high school. Probably cause of all the times I used to fight any one who crossed me or cause of the way I’d always smart off to the teachers. I tell you that so you can get a better understanding of the story I’m bout to tell you. It was my Senior Year. And I was flunkin’ only one class (surprisingly). It was English. Ms. Hannah was the teacher. And man, she was a blonde bomb shell. She musta stood at least 5 foot 9. She was 36 years...
If you think the Megabus is bad, you should try taking the bus from Oaxaca into Chiapas, south-east Mexico. Twelve hours of trying not to vomit in the blistering oppressive heat. When the shaking and rolling finally stopped, I staggered away from the road and lay in the undergrowth for a while, enjoying the stillness.According to the map I still had to trek down into the valley where I would be met by my hosts, so I shouldered my rucksack and started off down the rocky path. The landscape was...
LesbianIt was his birthday, but not even the sunshine of a beautiful day could cheer Pete up. Thirty-three years old and still single, he was re-evaluating his life choices, and mourning opportunities that he had sadly let slip by. Of all his failures, he knew that nothing was worse than losing his high school sweetheart. She was tall and slim, a delicate beauty with blue eyes, brown hair and a smile that would melt even the coldest of hearts. Tara was his first love, and the pain and regret he...
