Pat Clancy did not usually watch ISN, but his father happened to be home, and his father was a big fan of the local college team.
Pat was in an extended rebellious stage, at the point that many kids left at about fourteen or fifteen. Being a freshman at the U, though, he was savvy enough to realize that some minimum amount of acquiescence went a long ways to getting him the things he wanted from his indulgent parents with the least hassle.
Pat had his basketball scholarship, and that had scored him major points with his dad. Still, a little more cheap good will in the bank never hurt. "Hey, Pat, that kicker from the 'U' who wiped out Renton is going to be interviewed on ISN. C'mon and watch," came from the TV room. Pat did not particularly want to study any more, so he went along.
As soon as Pat sat down, he almost popped right up out of his chair. The kicker was none other than that hot shooter that had played with those chicks in that pickup basketball game where he got arrested. All of the anger came flooding back on him.
The stupid cunt with that guy, the one that had mouthed off at him, almost cost him everything. If his dad had not pulled out all the big guns, he could have lost his scholarship. Of course, there would have been no problem affording tuition, but the basketball coach would not tolerate any kind of criminal record on his team. At the best, he would have had to sit out for a year.
Harlan Clancy was so intent on the show that he did not notice his son's poorly concealed anger. Of course, Harlan rarely noticed anything that was not a grade, an award, or a win. When the clips of the tackles were shown, Pat had to admit to being impressed. The kicker was just a little shit, but he hit like a truck. Pat felt no awe, however. What he felt was the return of the rage that had caused him to stupidly expose himself that day.
Losing was always very hard on Pat. It was not just a strong competitive drive. His ego, his self-worth, was dangerously attached to whatever contest he was currently engaged in. His absolute fury at the thought of losing had made him a coach's challenge since his earliest days. At the same time, that fury, along with a generous supply of natural talent, had helped make every team on which he played a winner - frequently a champion. That winning ability is what had gained him the scholarship.
The horrible embarrassment that summer morning at the park was one of the biggest blots on Pat's life, and it was not the arrest that was the main problem. No matter whom he was teamed with, no team with three - or four! - girls could beat him. If he hadn't lost his cool, he knew they would have caught up, but...
After the TV show, the anger just kept building in Pat. By Thursday morning, he had hardly slept at all. He had two classes on Thursday and he hung around the stadium while football practice was on. With no real plan in mind, he wanted to follow the kicker. He had to park a ways from the stadium, but it looked like some of the players' cars were there, as well. Again, just reacting, he waited in his car.
Pat saw the kicker, whose name he remembered was Banner, walking out with a Hispanic guy who looked about as wide as he was tall. Since it was not his sport, Pat paid little attention to the names of the football players, so he did not recognize Padre.
Even though there was no reason to be on the alert, Cal's training and his experiences were just too deep. He did not notice Pat's BMW parked in the, probably because Pat had crouched below the window level. When he stopped by the gym to pick up Cheryl, who was already waiting, he happened to notice the BMW stopping back down the road. Given that he had just been on national TV, Cal made an assumption. He assumed that someone from the media was following him.
Pat could not believe his luck! The bitch who was the main cause of his near disaster was with the kicker. Of course, Pat could probably say with complete honesty that he did not recall purposely bouncing Cheryl off of the basket stanchion. If he had done something like that, it would have been with perfect justification, so it was not worth remembering. Nor could he recall his crack about 'that's how they play it in the NBA - man's basketball' when she complained.
Of course, he vividly remembered her crack about 'tiny dick syndrome', and that certainly justified any retaliation he came up with. Who would have guessed there was a cop on the sideline? Why didn't anyone have a sense of humor? Tiny dick - fuck that!
As they parked at home and went in to the apartment, Cal noticed the BMW again. It registered as a vehicle he had seen before, but he had no reason for any alarm or even suspicion, once again feeling only irritation at the pesky media. The smoked windows of the car did not let him see who the driver was.
Pat was almost beside himself with glee. The girl was the kicker's bitch! They lived together! He could just tell by the way they went into the house. At that point, he had no idea what he would do with that information, but a burning desire for revenge against the girl who had caused him so much trouble began to grow in his gut.
Elaine was staying until Sunday. Cal would have to leave Friday afternoon, but it was not a long flight to their game and they would return Saturday evening. It was such a unique chance to be around Cal, and she found Claire and Bert to be delightful company, as well.
She was looking forward to Friday night with just herself and Cheryl. She hoped Cheryl would be able to take some time off from studying for a little girl talk. Elaine really enjoyed the times with her probable future daughter-in-law, and Cheryl seemed hungry for any 'mothering' that she could get. Having had her around the house for many years as Rebecca's friend before she and Cal fell in love, Cheryl was very much a surrogate daughter to Elaine.
Friday evening, Maddy came home with Cheryl, and Claire was already there with Elaine. Bert had gone out with some friends, and Maddy's sister Rosalita had been asked to leave enough food for the four of them. Sharon did not join them this time.
The girls were barely in the door when Claire piped up "We need more sour cream. I can't handle Rosalita's spices without it, and I don't have any more in my fridge, either."
"Gringo pansies!" Maddy chortled. "I'll run down to the corner and get it." She had the car that night, so no one argued.
Claire, Elaine, and Cheryl were laughing about Maddy's cheekiness as they puttered around the tiny kitchen. They worked with the amazing dance that women always seemed to adopt naturally when sharing a kitchen. The chatter had just died down and they were all carrying things to the table in the living/dining room when there was a knock on the front door.
"Did Maddy forget her key?" Cheryl asked. "She couldn't be back already, could she? I'll bet she forgot money! Would you get it, please, Elaine? Claire and I have our hands full."
Not having any reason for extra caution, Elaine just opened the door, expecting to see Maddy. Instead, there were three young men standing there, one of whom stuck his foot in the door so it would not close.
Elaine had no idea who the boys were, but to her, the placement of the foot was a menacing move. No timid soul, she reacted quickly, slamming the door against the intruding foot as hard as she could. If the kid pulled his foot back, she would be able to close the door.
Instead of the reaction Elaine had hoped for, the largest of the boys put his shoulder into the door and sent it back into Elaine, knocking her sprawling. Claire dropped what she was carrying at the commotion. Cheryl looked up and recognized Pat and one other boy. She set her load down and made a dash for the kitchen and the phone.
The big kid who had knocked Elaine down saw Cheryl's move and beat her to the phone, grabbing it away from her. One of the other boys had been at the park the day of that basketball game. The big one had not, and he looked mean, so she decided not to confront him right away.
Both because of his personality and because of the money he could throw around, Pat collected followers quite easily. Those at the park for the basketball game had all been high school friends, two of them members on his high school basketball team. The big kid that broke into the house with him was actually a cousin, a year out of high school, not at all college material. He was a classic hanger-on, blindly following anything Pat wanted.
The other intruder was a teammate and classmate of Pat's, now enrolled at the college, but unlikely to make it in basketball. He was taller than Pat's 6'2" but more slender. While the big cousin was very aggressive, the slender kid was uneasy and uncertain.
Claire was a rather small person, but she was feisty. Knowing that there was another phone in the bedroom, she tried to move stealthily in that direction. Pat saw her attempt, grabbed Slender Kid by the arm, and almost threw him toward Claire. "Stop her!" Pat yelled.
"Claire! Just stay still!" Cheryl snapped. The last thing she wanted was for the older woman to be hurt. After her initial shock, Cheryl was starting to think about the things that Master Jessy had taught them. The first thing she had to do was try to talk them out of the situation. Part of her wanted to let the jerks have it. She was pretty sure that she could take them out, unless one of them was a trained fighter.
But what if one of them was trained? She could not risk either of the women getting hurt. What if rape was on the guys' minds? No, she had to buy time. Cal would not be showing up, so it was up to her. Somehow, they had to break someone away to the phone. That was what she had to stall for, maneuver for.
Maddy! She would be coming back soon. Cheryl could not put Maddy in danger. How could she warn her friend away? Would Maddy be able to go for help? Elaine was stunned, sitting on the floor and holding her head. Cousin was in the kitchen and Cheryl was between him and Elaine, so she went over and helped Elaine to her feet. The priority was to watch for Maddy and warn her off to get help. Helping Elaine was a natural thing to do, though, and it bought a little time.
Cousin was just coming out of the kitchen, holding the phone. Slender Kid was in front of the door to the bedroom, just blocking the way. Pat blocked the front door. As Cheryl helped Elaine up, she whispered in her ear. "Go be with Claire. Tell her not to say anything. We need to get to the bedroom phone. Watch for a chance."
"What are you yappin' about?" Pat demanded loudly.
"Just seeing if she's OK," Cheryl said, surprising herself with her calmness. As she guided Elaine toward Claire, walking very slowly, she deliberated about what attitude to take, what to say, and how best to stall for time.
From Master Jessy's teachings, there were at least two ways she could play it. One was to be very passive and say little, making Pat take the initiative. That was probably the best way to kill the most time.
Another option was to try to goad the guys into taking some action that would give Claire or Elaine a chance to get to the phone. The downside was that any action on the guys' part had great potential for injury to one or both of the women. Also, once they got their adrenalin up, they might start thinking rape.
When Maddy returned, everything would be up in the air, Cheryl decided. Until then, the less action, the better. If there was no customer backup at the little market, Maddy's whole trip should take less than ten minutes. If the store was out of sour cream... that was not worth thinking about.
Cheryl slowly edged over so she was in front of the little cluster of the two women and Slender Kid. She was facing Pat and Cousin. Exerting every bit of self-control that she had, she stood with her hands loosely at her sides, staring impassively right in Pat's face.
While waiting for something to happen, Cheryl had a weird thought. The bastards could honestly claim that they were never asked to leave. "Please leave. Now!" she said as calmly as she could.
With a laugh, Pat demanded "Now, why the hell should we do that?"
"Because if you do that right now, you might get by without going to jail. I'm asking you. Please leave. You heard me ask twice, right, Ladies?" Both nodded." This was more conversation than Cheryl had wanted at that point, but she thought she had better get the demand on the table. "Now, if you don't leave, it's breaking and entering."
"But you opened the door," Pat said.
"But we never invited you in. In fact, she tried to close the door," Cheryl pointed out. This was stupid, kid-type arguing, but it was killing time and no one was getting hurt. "You broke in. That's a crime."
As nervous as she was, it was hard to move. Nevertheless, Cheryl somehow got herself bouncing on her feet and shaking her arms. "What the hell are you doing, bitch?" Cousin laughed.
"My sensei taught me to get ready this way if I think I'm going to have to fight." Cheryl replied almost gaily. Elaine and Claire were both staring at her in open-mouthed wonder.
Elaine was not open-mouthed for long, though. "I almost forgot that!" Elaine said as she mimicked Cheryl's bouncing action. She hoped her shaking was not too obvious.
"Sheee-ittt!" Cousin swore. "What you gonna fight with, huh? You hear that, Pat?"
"Well? What did you expect us to do?" Cheryl asked in a sarcastic voice.
"We expect you to just enjoy it," Big Kid snarled.
Cheryl had to work very hard at sounding calm when she said "Oh, so you came to rape us, huh?"
"Thought you were alone," Pat said quickly, showing some nervousness.
"So, you figured it would take three to do me?" Cheryl sneered, still bouncing and shaking her arms.
"Come on, Pat! Why are we standin' here jawin?" Cousin snarled.
At just that moment, they heard the key in the lock. Pat spun toward the door, and both the other boys looked there quickly. Cheryl had decided that Maddy's opening the door would be the signal for action. She would tell Maddy to run for help, then she would take out Cousin first.
Pat spoiled Cheryl's plan by reaching through the partially-opened door, grabbing Maddy's arm, and yanking her inside. Maddy, caught off-guard and off-balance, was unable to resist, and ended up sprawled on the floor.
Cheryl wanted to go to her friend and help her up, but she sensed that it was more important to maintain the illusion of being in charge of the situation. "Well, now you've done it, Pat! Both you and your pet gorilla here are guilty of assault. We'll still let you leave now, and you can avoid attempted rape charges."
"What attempted?" Cousin snarled. "If we want some, there's nothing you can do about it. I think some mother-daughter action would be just the thing. What do you say, Pat?" He apparently thought that Elaine was Cheryl's mother, an easy assumption to make.
By this time, Maddy was on her feet. Initially, she had felt panic, but when she saw Cheryl's remarkably calm demeanor, she remembered what she had learned along with Cheryl at Master Jessy's. She was not sure what to do, but she sensed that reinforcing Cheryl's command of the situation was important.
Divide and conquer! The situation was at a bit of a standstill, and Cheryl decided to work on Slender Kid. From what she remembered of him at the park and from his demeanor at the moment, she could not believe that he was a threat. She believed that he would take any opportunity to get out of the situation. He was the weak link. Purposely turning her back on the other two, Cheryl said to him "I don't know who you are. So far, the only thing you've done wrong is to follow this asshole and break into the house. If you walk out right now, we'll forget that. This is your chance to keep from screwing up your life big time."
They could all see the fear and confusion on Slender Kid's face as he thought about Cheryl's words. Not wanting to give him time to reconsider, she snapped "Go now, or you take your punishment with these two."
She had guessed right. Slender Kid was not of the same ilk as Pat and Cousin. "S... sorry, Pat. I don't want any part of this," he mouthed as he headed for the door.
The desertion by their young cohort did not please Pat and Cousin at all. Both of them lunged to stop Slender Kid from leaving. Cheryl had not planned on the action starting that way, and she was inclined to just let the three sort things out among themselves. Maybe they would all leave.
Pat's and Cousin's attention was not on Slender Kid for long. As soon as Slender Kid moved out of the way, Elaine nudged Claire, who head for the bedroom and the phone. Cousin saw what Claire intended and shouted "Stop her, Pat!"
As Pat moved toward the bedroom, Slender Kid shouted "No, Pat! That's enough!" and reached out to grab his erstwhile hero. Reacting instinctively, Pat swung his elbow back hard, connecting with Slender Kid's temple and knocking him senseless.
Cheryl's shock at the sudden action was short-lived as she saw Cousin closing on her, intent on heading off Claire before she could call 911. Cheryl had hoped to avoid a physical confrontation with the big guy, but that was no longer an option.
Master Jessy had drilled the girl's over and over on the ways to stop a larger, stronger opponent. One of the potentially deadliest ways was a blow to the throat. It could stop even the most dangerous threat if delivered properly. The downside was that it could cause asphyxiation by completely cutting off the air passage.
There was no time for Cheryl to deliberate. No other 'certain stop' target area of Cousin was exposed. He was straight on to her and his neck was exposed and unprotected. She struck, having to stretch upward to do so, thinking only of hitting hard enough to protect her friend.
As Cheryl was dealing with Cousin, Pat was back in motion toward the bedroom. Without either one knowing what the other was doing, Maddy was about to attack him from behind and Elaine was steeling herself to keep him from getting to Claire. Elaine was very afraid, but she was also angry enough to provide the courage to hold her ground.
Maddy scored first, delivering a hammer-like blow to his kidney with side of her closed fist. Just as he reacted to the pain, arching his back and reaching his right arm behind himself, Elaine caught him in the groin with her knee.
Pat's body had just begun to reverse itself and double over forward to protect its wounded jewels when Maddy grabbed the arm that had reached behind his back. She pushed it upward with all of her might. Considering the difference in their heights, she had to reach high. Still, she felt a 'pop' and heard a scream that was perversely satisfying. At the point, she did not know that he had two sources of severe pain to scream about.
Cousin was still collapsing to the floor when Cheryl picked up the phone that he had kept in his hand. When she pushed talk, she heard that Claire was already dialing 911. "We'll need an ambulance, Claire. Tell them it may be life-threatening," Cheryl said.
Pat was curled into a ball and moaning pitifully. His right arm flopped around as he writhed on his left side and an acrid urine stain spread over his shorts. Cousin was having great trouble breathing. Slender Kid was slumped against the wall, conscious but disoriented and holding his head.
The instinctive healer part of Cheryl hated the thought of inflicting damage as she had done, and she began to feel nauseous at the thought and at the ebbing of the adrenalin rush.
Elaine reached Cheryl as she was starting to wobble and kept her on her feet. "Hang in there, Honey. You did what you had to. I'm proud of you!" That bit of reassurance seemed to help a lot. By the time they heard distant sirens, she had regained most of her composure.
"What was this all about - who are these guys?" Elaine asked.
Seeing that Cheryl was still unsteady, Maddy explained. "One morning, we were shooting baskets at the park and these guys game up and wanted a game. Pat - the one you castrated - and the tall kid were two of them. Well, Call, Bud, Robin, Sharon, and the two of us were kicking their butts, with quite a few people cheering on the sidelines.
Cal arrived back home just as Rebecca was coming in. They chatted briefly with their parents, and as they headed up the stairs, Rebecca grabbed his arm. "Can I sleep with you again tonight?" Just about to say that Cheryl was already there, Cal caught himself. This chance with his sister was too precious to miss. Yet Cheryl needed him badly, too. Giving Rebecca a quick kiss on the cheek, he hurried off to see what he could do. When Rebecca came into Cal's room a while later, she did not...
Back at the mall, the officer took statements from the five teenagers and the two guards. Then, seeing that Bobby was unable to talk, was having much trouble swallowing, and had labored breathing, she called for an ambulance. With a puzzled look, she took a few steps away from the teens and exchanged several sentences with dispatch. Coming back to the group, she told Bobby "I'll drive you to the hospital. There's been an accident just down Perimeter, and two ambulances are on the way...
As the days before the start of school and the opening of both the football and volleyball seasons dwindled, Cal worked hard on his mental discipline, determined not to let discouragement or anger get him down. Cheryl, of course, saw right through his carefully-constructed facade, but she was uncertain about what she could do to make him feel better. Part of Cal's problem was that he really needed some hard contact to let out some of his frustration and pent-up adrenalin. Seeing the look in...
Despite the late return home from the incredible Saturday and the energetic love-making into the wee hours, both Cal and Cheryl awoke only an hour after their usual dawn time. After a brief discussion, they decided to go for a run but pass on the rest of that day's workout. He probably should have suspected it, but Cal pulled up short in surprise as they turned the last corner before home on their run. Right in front of the house stood a TV truck. "I suppose there's no way to wait them...
Genevieve Overland was faced with a delicate problem - two delicate problems, actually. This steroid thing was worrisome, if the Carson girl was right about the potential health dangers. The Greg/Cecily relationship was really worrisome. Greg had blindsided them all with Cecily. Genevieve had four children, and they in turn had spawned fourteen grandchildren for her. Out of the eight female grandchildren, Cecily, at fourteen, was undeniably the prize. She was pretty and surprisingly sexy for...
The sudden appearance of the attackers had shocked Cal, just as it had the others. The sight of the gun brought back unavoidable images of Fasil in the back yard on THE DAY. It was fortunate for Cal that the gun-wielder wanted to talk as it gave Cal time to collect himself and remember his disciplines. First, the threat assessment. The gun was the only visible weapon, and a quick glance did not show any of the others with body positions indicating a weapon at hand. Cal would have bet,...
"Elaine, this is Cheryl. Hope I'm not calling too late." "Hi, Cheryl. Is there a problem with Cal?" "Oh, no. Sorry. Didn't mean to frighten you. Listen, I'm calling from Claire's so Cal can't hear me. Cal is going to ISN headquarters for an interview." "Really?" Elaine exclaimed. "Wow!" "Well, that's not exactly his reaction," Cheryl cautioned. "He's afraid they're going to try to make him look like a villain because of Renton." "Then why is he doing it?" "The...
While Teri and Rick were celebrating their reunited marriage in bed, Tessa was spreading the joyous news at the Banner house. She seemed almost as excited as her mother, except when she came down to Cal's photo lab and told him. Then, she was surprisingly reserved, almost sad. "Hey, Tessa, that's great news! How come you're not smiling?" "Oh, well I'm... I mean..." Tessa stalled out completely for several long seconds and just looked at Cal. "Do you really think it's great? You...
There were three guys with their pants off in the bedroom, and Cheryl was bare-assed on all fours on the bed. One guy was fucking her. Another was trying to get his cock in her mouth, and the third was apparently awaiting his turn as he stroked himself. Rebecca was too stunned to become aroused, and she stood transfixed by the sight. She was seeing her first live cocks, and seeing them under far from romantic, or even erotic, circumstances. Bobby could not help but feel embarrassment at what...
Cal had told Hector that they would be at the same hotel, leaving it up to the groom if they wanted to get together. Hector mentioned the fact to Maddy when they managed to get out of bed mid-morning on Saturday, and she immediately got on the phone to Cheryl. The four ended up sharing a large brunch, giving the girls time to recover before heading for practice. Having discussed it beforehand, Cheryl and Cal made no remarks about the newlyweds' first night, nor did they ask any questions....
While Sharon and Ryan were passionately formalizing their status as a couple, Cheryl and Cal were talking quietly on the hide-a-bed in the tiny front room of Maddie and Hector's apartment. "You seem a little preoccupied, Hon," Cheryl told him. "Sorry. You know, Dr. Carson, some of the stuff you said last week has been rattling around in my head all week." "Such as?" "Well, your comment about significance, for one thing," he said. "I guess I have been a little hung up on...
It only took a couple more discussions with Cal and one with her parents before Cheryl wrote her acceptance letter for the scholarship. It was Cal who rather forcefully convinced her to talk with Hal and Darlene, and it went better than Cal could have expected. Hal had netted nearly half a million dollars from the insurance settlement. Marty recruited only the best as her associates, and Robert did a masterful job. Predictably, the Carsons invested the money and did not spend extravagantly....
For the second time in a few minutes, Cal initiated a kiss. This one lasted a long time, and this time, he instinctively thrust his crotch into her. The kiss lasted long enough for her to unfasten and unzip his jeans and reach in to grasp his painfully rigid cock. She gave it a few gentle strokes and he started panting. "Teri! I'm going to come!" "I hope so!" "But... !" It was already too late. When he had finished spurting, she somehow worked his jeans down with one hand, never...
Suzanne Meinert felt a stab of jealousy as she and Rod walked up to the house with the real estate agent. She still could not understand why they were even bothering to look at this expensive one. Rod loved teaching and coaching, and they weren't poor. But there was never anything extra. This house was so perfect, it almost made her cry to think about it. But there was no way they could afford it. All through the tour, her depression increased. If only... Rod Meinert had been too angry...
Kenneth Yokata's father was a third-generation Japanese-American, the first in his line to marry a gaijin. That had caused a major rift between him and the rest of the very traditional family. However, Ken had been brought up with a large measure of the best of both of the disparate cultures. His father had seen that he was schooled in the ancient disciplines from an early age. His mother, a highly educated woman, saw that he was well-versed in the intricacies of Western thought. Ken had...
Rachman Mussafi learned of the complete elimination of his kidnap team the next day. The FBI would have been greatly alarmed if they had known how he got the information. The loss of the deal with the sheik was a severe blow to Rachman and it became one more offense that he could lay at his daughter's feet. News that the Banner kid had once more gotten in the way made him even more furious. Ken Yokata's fear that Rachman would now come after Ismi just for punishment became a reality....
When they were ushered into the home, only a few minutes late, Cal asked if they could talk for a few minutes. This was by arrangement with Teri. "I understand that you would like to have me take some revealing photographs. Is that right?" Both women nodded, somewhat nervously. "How revealing do you want them to be?" When neither woman came up with an answer, he asked "Will you be wearing lingerie? Sleepwear? Swimwear? Nothing?" He finally got a reaction as the one whose home they...
The night of Beth Hall's visit, Cal slept no better than his former basketball coach. The remarks of both Coach Hall and his wife obviously referred to Chad Clark. But why would Chad be Hall's presumed starting point guard? Everyone had known that Cal was destined for that spot. Chad was not even a capable reserve. As Cal lay awake for an unprecedented hour, random memories from the last eight months cycled through his mind. Every once in a while, one of them stood out. Principal...
"Don't let the dispatcher hang up!" Cal said sharply to Robin. She looked at him in confusion for a moment, the set her face and began speaking. "Listen, this situation is already screwed up. Let's get out of it without any more foul-ups, OK? Now, you patch me through to the two nearest patrol cars, and..." Robin paused, obviously waiting out the dispatcher's objections. When she resumed speaking, her voice was steady, but had an authoritative crack to it. "We've got a dozen...
The Carson family's flight was an early one, to get the best fare. That day was not the actual first day of school, but registration day. After returning from the airport, Cal and Cheryl got through registration quickly, bought books, and were home well before lunch. Home. Cheryl pondered that concept as they pulled into their parking spot. She felt the excitement welling up at the thought that they were finally alone. In some ways, she considered it her first real home. Very early in her...
After she called Bud, Robin searched frantically through Cheryl's closet for something to wear. It was useless. Not that Cheryl didn't have clothes, but Robin could not think of what would look right. Actually, she could hardly think at all, and she ended up not changing anything. When he rang the bell, she opened it, but she could not look up at him. He had a good idea what she was going through, and he realized how careful he had to be not to do anything that would cause her to...
Cheryl had driven home from school for the short vacation, and she and Cal drove both of their vehicles back. They had debated about whether that was necessary, but they decided to be on the safe side. They left themselves just one day after they arrived before registration. Since housing was all in order, that was one time-consuming item they did not have to deal with. On their free day, they connected with Maddy and her family, with Jesus Monteleone, with the volleyball coach, and of...
Sunday morning brought a sobering conversation. "Before I fly home, we'd better talk about the other two boys," Elaine told Cheryl and Cal when the couple returned from their reduced 'day-after-game' early workout. "To tell the truth, I'd just as soon never hear about them again," Cheryl responded. "I lost all of Friday night for studying and I had trouble concentrating yesterday. I don't want to be rude, Elaine, but I really have to hit the books today." "I'm afraid you may...
In the first week of the new year, two psychiatrists, speaking for the panel that had been employed to evaluate Greg, came to the Overland mansion to give their report. Brandon, Penelope, Genevieve, and Greg's lead lawyer were in the meeting. After the introductions, the lead doctor took the floor. "We have put Greg through the entire battery of tests and examinations that we described to you beforehand. We can go into as much detail as you would like, but let me summarize. He is...
The romance between Tessa and Vick took off like a rocket. Tessa was never one to dither when she wanted something, and she wanted Vick in the worst way. He, of course, did not have a chance. Not that he felt tricked or coerced in any way. Like a lot of the guys at school, Vick had been fascinated by Tessa, but because of her brains and her apparent relationship with Cal, he did not waste any time wishing for her. Finding out that she wanted him was just too good to be true. Just two weeks...
Robin was pissed. Her anger at that Jeremy character had been building with every report of his smarmy little campaign to subjugate her new friend Darlene. It was two weeks before Cal's return home, and Robin had just heard about Jeremy's last intrusion and Darlene's refusal to return to the club. Well, it was better that Darlene not be there right now, but by God, she would be back if Robin had anything to say about it. Robin and Darlene were worlds apart in life experience, yet Robin...
Saturday morning could have been a scene from a 'B' movie about high school girls. Of the eight gathered in Teri's rec room, Rebecca and Tessa were as giddy as the rest. Somehow, Cal thought they should have been helping to organize things and bring some order. Didn't happen. Since Sam had asked him personally, he took her first. She had changed into a tube top, which was apparently the uniform for the portraits. He started with the same approach he had used on Rebecca and Tessa, trying...
With basketball finished, Cal had no extra-curricular activities from school to take up his time. He had decided that he was going to accelerate his martial arts training for the entire spring and summer until football practice started in mid-August. The morning after his first naked photo session with Teri, it was easy for him to get up early, as sleep had been very hard to find. The extra exertion of his more vigorous workout was just what he needed to relieve the tension built up by the...
When the van pulled across their path and the men jumped out, Cal's initial reaction was a flash of panic, but in milliseconds he remembered why he had spent all of those years in martial arts classes. The men looked Arabic, and his mind flashed back to the sight of Rachman kicking the helpless Ismi. It was not going to happen again! Mr. Yokata's teachings came to him with the force of deeply ingrained habit. First, the assessment. Two men. No visible weapons. One man, the driver, had to...
When Cal was first able to walk on his foot, he had started taking walks in the cool of the evening. The foot was healed, but it could not yet take the stress of running. On the second night that he walked, his mother caught up with him halfway down the driveway, took his hand in hers, and made it clear that she intended to walk with him. "Teri gets to spend a lot more time with you than I do," she complained. "I've got to grab whatever I can." After a moment of panic that she might...
Two football games had already been played, and Cheryl was very concerned. Greg had gained right around 100 yards in each game, although he had fumbled once. She talked with Cal on Monday night, trying to arrange a time when they could get together. She was adamant that it had to be before that Friday's game. Finding a time and place was actually rather tough. The rendezvous had to be kept secret from both sets of parents and from Greg. That ruled out Cheryl's home, and it made evenings...
Since he had shown Rebecca and Tessa the nude pictures of Rob Krantz, the girls had lain in wait for Cal's return every time Teri went on a shoot. They knew there would likely be nudity if Teri had to preside. "Any naked guys?" would hit Cal as soon as he walked into the house with film in hand. "I gotta have a talk with Mom," Tessa pouted. "I can't understand why only she gets to go on the sexy shoots. It's just not fair!" Cal looked quickly at Rebecca, who had not yet finished her...
To Cal's relief, nothing bad had happened by the time most people had eaten and the sun was getting low. He had relaxed his vigil on Rebecca and Bobby and was talking with Dante Powers about the new basketball coach and the team's prospects. He realized that he had not seen the lovebirds for a while, and when Dante walked off to see someone else, Cal started scanning the beach for them. He was just starting to be concerned when Cheryl came running up to him, followed closely by Tessa....
Rebecca went home for dinner, and when she sat down at the table, everyone could see the static issuing from almost everywhere on her body. Elaine waited until everyone had finished, then asked "Honey, is there something you wanted to say?" "I want to stay overnight at Bobby's so I can help him in the morning," Rebecca said as rapidly as she could. "Help him with what?" Martin asked before Elaine could warn him to keep quiet. "Well, he has to stay lying straight - can't bend at...
At the hospital, Cheryl could see it in her mother's eyes. Darlene Carson had no idea what to do or what was going to happen, and it scared her to death. Armed with her new understanding, Cheryl laid everything out in simple, specific terms, seeing her mother's tension ease with every sentence. It was nice for Cheryl to see her analysis verified, but it was also disturbing to find this out about her mother. Cheryl could not help thinking how much better her home life might have been if she...
In the weeks since her return to the health club, Jeremy had given Darlene five massages. That they were much longer than the fifteen minutes offered on the coupons was never mentioned. She had worn the two-piece suit on the table every time, and he decided to make his move. "Darlene, you've got some tightness here that I can't get rid of with these short strokes. I need to move up and down your whole back." Without saying any more, Jeremy undid the clasp that held the suit top...
Cheryl really wanted to be there for the first part of Jeremy's humiliation, but she understood why it could not work out. As Rebecca drove them all from the airport, Cheryl felt that sense of unreality. It was the first time that she had been home in two months. Everything seemed so familiar, yet strange in a way. And she really was not home. This was just a quick drop-in. Nobody could understand why she was so adamant about being there tonight - well, Cal understood, and maybe her mom...
Cal and Cheryl were still cuddling, caressing, and talking when his normal workout time arrived. They dozed off for a few hours, and Cal was definitely groggy when they had to get up for her flight. She was just as lifeless until Robin showed up and explained that she was going with them. It was the biggest shot of energy that Cal had ever seen. Cheryl was absolutely ecstatic. Robin sat in the front seat of the plane with Bud. Several times when she looked back, Cheryl was grinning from ear...
It was late on a Saturday evening, and Cal was becoming concerned that Laura would never give up for the night. He had been hiding in her house for going on three hours, and boredom did not begin to describe what he had endured. At least on the many evenings spent in the blind, waiting for a chance to get some evidence, he could read, study, or talk to Cheryl part of the time. This was the night it had to happen. Two weeks of school had already passed, and he just could not spend any more...
Cal was too startled to say anything, which was probably fortunate. Jolie eventually reached the bed, where she stopped, giving a perfect imitation of a horror movie zombie. Her head turned back and forth mechanically as she repeatedly scanned her mother's exposed body. Far, far from being an innocent, Jolie was still stunned by whatever she had seen. Jolie's confusion gave Cal time to recover from his shock. "How long have you been watching?" he asked, assuming that his cousin would not...
Early Monday morning at his workout was Cal's first chance for some deep thought. Of course, there had been idle time on Sunday, but by dint of long habit, it was while exercising that he did his best concentration. The dominant thing on his mind was what his mother had done the night before. Even before he had gone to sleep, he had decided that he was not upset by it. Oh, it had been embarrassing at first, but her words and her expression had conveyed her true feelings - love and...
The loss of a defensive star like Vick Smaak could not help but affect the football team. There was a good program in the younger grades, though, and even if there was not a direct replacement for Vick, there was enough new talent to make the defense very strong. The offense that had been reshaped the previous year to make up for the loss of Greg and Brad hit it's stride right away. It was explosive and exciting to watch. The coaches decided that a gambling defense that stressed forcing big...
A few days before the volleyball tournament was to start, Coach Meinert caught Cal after basketball practice. "I got a call from a woman who really needs your help. I told her I would see if I could talk you into it." When Cal just showed a blank stare, Meinert said "I'll give you a clue: she's a coach." Still not seeing comprehension on Cal's face, he added "A volleyball coach." Seeing that Cal had finally caught on, Meinert laughed and said "Get your ass to Cheryl's first match....
The night Cal got back from Cheryl's tournament, Martin sat down with him as he was having a late snack. "While you were gone, the calls started." "Calls?" Cal asked. "From football coaches," Martin said with a grin. "They were all looking for a kicker." "Am I supposed to call back?" "I told them that you had already started at your chosen school," Martin answered. "I hope that was all right." "You maybe could have saved yourself a lot of money if one of them gave me a...
Where is the boundary between grief and hate? Between hate and insanity? Had any professional been aware of the importance of these questions in regard to Penelope Overland, she could have been the basis of a fascinating study. The fact that no one suspected anything deeper than the difficulty of recovering from the death of a child told a lot about Penelope's makeup. Genetically and culturally, she was imbued with some very strong traits. First of all, she was undeniably intelligent....
The Friday morning after Thanksgiving was not a common time for a wedding, but with the short notice, that was the best that Maddy had been able to schedule. She wanted it to be in her parents' church, and she knew that the traditional morning time would be most acceptable to her mother. She and Hector had tried very hard to do everything to please their parents, especially hers. They would not compromise on the timing, and they would use birth control. Outside of those givens, they would...
Finally something was going right! Nikolai, the team leader, had been completely frustrated as one thing after another kept one or more of his targets out of town. He had tried to see if two at a time wouldn't satisfy the client, but Viktor had been firm about it. All four of them in one place, bound, and in good condition - it was that or no payoff. There was no way the client was spending all of this money just to have a chat with the four kids, so what was the big deal about good...
Intro I’m Mike and I just graduated from college last week and so happy to be home again. This last semester was not easy as I had papers, tests and presentations to do but it’s over now. I just wanted to relax. Thought maybe I would go to our pool which I did for a few hours but then it rained so I went inside. Thus, I decided to pop a pizza in the oven and then I played some video games but I started to get horny. Looking for something to relieve my horniness: Walking around the house I...
Finally I was done. I was free. Final exams were done and I wouldn’t have to return to university classes for an entire month. The last week had been so stressful. Between work and studying for finals and finishing my research paper I had only been getting 3 or 4 hours of sleep a night. That also meant I had not had anywhere near enough time to have fun with my lover. I was tired, emotional, and horny, but now I was free. As I walked home from my last exam I just got more and more...

Der Handwerker Ich bin der erste, der zugibt, dass es nur Glück war. Ich hatte schon seit Jahren mit Aktien spekuliert, mit mehr oder minder Erfolg. Doch plötzlich, für mich völlig unerwartet, schossen meine Papiere durch die Decke. Ich starrte ungläubig auf mein Portfolio und irgendwann, als es mir unheimlich wurde, verkaufte ich. Wie sich herausstellte, war ich gerade noch rechtzeitig ausgestiegen. Wenige Tage später kam der Crash, aber da hatte ich meine Gewinne schon realisiert. Beim...
BDSMIt was 1 am. There was a knock on the door of my holiday villa. The sound echoed through the little building and onto the small veranda at the back, where I was enjoying some late-night reading. As I sat under the warm yellow glow of the lamp affixed to the back wall, my brow furrowed. I wasn't expecting any visitors, certainly not at this hour.I tilted my book down and looked out into the distance, wondering whether I should respond. The ink-black waters of the Ionian Sea glinted beneath the...

LesbianThe next morning, I got up a little late. My flight was in the evening back to Mumbai. While having breakfast, I asked my sister-in-law Anki – Me: How was the masturbation session last night? (and I winked). She was feeling shy. She didn’t say anything. Me: I know you would have masturbated while watching porn after I left. I also did the same thing. I find it normal. We are adults and have some needs which need to be fulfilled. There is nothing wrong with discussing it. She said: Yes, I did...

Last year, I met a handsome older gentlemen at my friend's Christmas party. We hit it off instantly and spent the whole night flirting and teasing one another. As the night wore on, it was very obvious that both of us wanted to spend the night fucking one another so I invited him back to my place because my roommate was gone for the holidays. As we left and I was saying goodbye to my friend, she whispered that he was her boss which turned me on so much more. We got back to my house and had an...

NovelsEver since I had found copies of Penthouse Letters in my older brother's room I had been curious. There were stories of men with other men there and while at first I was a bit shocked that a publication like this would have letters about gay or bi men, soon I began to realize that on one level or another they were more interesting. Perhaps it was the fact that society seemed so down on men being with men, but whatever it was I searched out those stories. I even found myself thinking of being...
