Iâm Dan, a senior majoring in mechanical engineering. I needed two general education requirements to complete my degree, at a university in the Chicago area. Itâs a cold January, on campus. I was able to enroll in an English literature class and Dr. Martinâs Sociology 369 Human Sexuality course, for the second semester.
On the first day of class, we learned about male and female orgasms. Dr. Martin allowed students to submit a standard analysis and reading notes or to provide an alternative assignment. The first alternative assignment was to masturbate either alone or with an observer and report on our experience.
Hannah, a coed was sitting in class next to me. I asked to be her partner. While we were trying to get comfortable with one another, we ended up having sex.
Dinner
As I sat with Hannah at dinner, I had so many questions I wanted to ask her, but she started off.
She looked me in the eye, âSo youâre what? Twenty two? Twenty three?
"Twenty two.â
âIâm twenty one. So, I have to say that I am not normally that aggressive. I donât know what came over me.â
âI thought it was wonderful.â
Hannah nodded, âIâm sure you did, but Iâm not sure what happened. I had every intention in the world of sitting there with you, reading until dinner. And then.â She averted her gaze, then looked back into my eyes, âThen I just wanted you. I canât explain it. Iâve never started anything with a guy before. It has always been the guy coming on to me.â
âI really didnât mind. It was definitely a gift. Guys often leave a gal frustrated because they canât work up the nerve to initiate things. Especially when the gal is as gorgeous as you.â
Hannah reached out and touched my hand, "Ah, thanks! Dan, itâs okay. I guess Iâm just trying to understand my actions. It was so out of character for me.â
âMaybe youâre comfortable with me. I hope, anyway?â
She laughed, âUndoubtedly. Youâre a really nice guy.â She released my hand, âNo, more than that. I know we just met, but I feel like you care about me as a person. I just hope that by being the initiator, I havenât made you not like me.â
âHannah, I would never think that. You are self-confident, thatâs all. Youâre very respectful and sensitive. You werenât pushy at all.â
âSee, thatâs the thing. Iâve never really been all that self-confident. Certainly not when it comes to sex.â
âHow much sex have you,â I stopped myself. âIâm sorry. Thatâs not polite for me to ask.â
"No, Iâm okay with talking to you about it. There was my date for the senior prom. Spring semester freshman year I had a boyfriend for a couple of weeks. Probably had sex two or three times with him. Sophomore year I had sex a couple of more times. Once over the summer. Once with Jeff last semester. Altogether, Iâve probably had sex less than ten times in my entire life. Not counting Sterling.â
âSterling?â I was puzzled.
âSterling is my chrome vibrator.â Hannah explained. âUntil today, only Sterling could reliably bring me to orgasms. Today was the first time someone not named Sterling, gave me an orgasm. How about you?â
âI wouldnât say that Iâm promiscuous, but Iâve had sex a lot more than that. It was always in a relationship. Letâs see, Iâve been intimate with five girlfriends. This was the first time I had sex with someone on the first day I met them.â
âSame here. I hope you didnât mind.â
âDo I in any way look like I didnât have the time of my life? Not at all. It was amazing. Maybe it was a desire to try out some of the things we learned in class.â
Hannah smiled, âWell you tried out something you learned. Did you rub my g spot?â
âYeah. It was all wrinkly.â I added. âNothing like a good hands-on lab project.â
âI was already cumming and then that sent me into orbit. Holy shit.â Hannah exclaimed.
âAs an observer, that was pretty cool. I obviously âpressed your buttonâ, right?â I gloated.
"Observer? Dan, you did that to me. You were my lover. Come to think of it, you propped me up so you could screw me like that dildo in the film.â
âI did.â I proudly admitted.
âThat was quite creative.â She marveled.
âThanks.â I grinned.
We ate in silence for several minutes. It wasnât the least bit awkward though.
Hannah stopped eating, âNormally I would try to fill silence. I donât feel like I have to. Itâs like weâre two old married people that are completely comfortable with each other.â
I stopped eating, âYouâre right. I donât know very much about you, but itâs like Iâve known you a long time.â
She nodded and continued eating. Another minute of silence passed.
I reached out and touched her hand, âDo you believe in fate?â
âI havenât given it much thought.â She wondered where this was going.
âI mean, what are the odds that I would have to sit next to you, you would ask me to be your partner, and we would hit it off so well?â
âLook it, Dan. Iâm not a religious person. Iâm sure there is a perfectly good probability that that would happen.â
I nodded, âOkay, but the odds are not that high.â
âThat two random college students sitting next to one another would become friends, partners, and lovers? It think they are very high. That those two people would be you and me, thatâs just the universe rolling the dice.â She squelched my sentimentality.
She was right, but the thought was disappointing. I pulled my hand back.
Hannah grabbed my hand, âDan, I feel like I just burst a bubble on you.â
âYeah. Maybe. A little. I had the thought that maybe someone was looking out for us and;â
âIf it makes you feel any better, â she interrupted; âI could very well be wrong. I agree that it is very cool that you sat down next to me. Whatever force in the universe made that happen, Iâm very grateful. Done eating?â
âYeah.â
The Library
To avoid temptation, we agreed to study together in the library. About nine we headed to Hannahâs room. The cold and wind had eased a bit, making it easier to talk.
Once outside, Hannah took my hand, âHow should we decide who goes first?â
âI donât have a problem going first.â
Hannah laughed, âIâm kind of excited. Iâve never seen a guy get himself off.â
âI guess thatâs a reason Dr. Miller said we could have an observer.â
I held the door for her when we got to her dorm. Inside her room I took off my jacket.
Hannah stopped to watch me, âThis feels very clinical again. Could I undress you?â
âSure.â
Hannah came over to me and put her hands behind my neck, âMaybe some mood-setting would help too.â She went on tip-toe and kissed me, âYes. Thatâs what we need.â She turned on her stereo. In a couple seconds, Simple Minds was playing âDonât you Forget About Meâ.
She pulled me to her bed, sat down, and pulled me down with her, âMuch better.â
We lay side-by-side, exploring each otherâs mouth. I finally pulled her on top of me so I could hold her ass cheeks. She seems to love having her ass caressed.
After several minutes of necking I spoke into her mouth, âI think Iâm ready.â
âI feel something.â She said with a horny wink. Her mix tape was now playing Rick Astley, singing âNever Gunna Give You Upâ. Iâm guessing this was Hannahâs mood music for when she pleasured herself. But that was her business. I just decided to enjoy the moment.
Hannah rolled off me and I stood up. I pulled my shirt off and dropped my jeans, standing there in my partially tented boxers.
âReady?â
She smiled and I let my boxers fall to my ankles, flipping them across the room with a flick of my foot. I slowly stroked my tumescent cock.
Hannah stood up, âI think I promised to let you see me naked to help get you aroused.â
âYou did.â I recalled.
âWhy donât you sit on the bed and let me give you something to get aroused about.â
I climbed up to the headboard and placed a pillow behind my back. Hannah began a little bump and grind strip tease. I pulled on my cock to firm it up. By now her mix tape was playing Tears for Fears, singing âEverybody Wants To Rule the Worldâ with its sultry beat.
She turned away from me and pulled her shirt off. She swiveled her jean-clad hips, then kicked off her shoes. Hannah loved to dance and itâs clear she was very good at it. Somehow her socks went flying. She stepped up onto the bed and stood above me, one leg on either side.
She placed her hands on the wall to balance herself and then placed her foot on my cock, âLet me rub that for you.â
I wouldnât call it rubbing, but she did move her foot up and down on my shaft. It wasnât exactly effective and soon she was back standing on the floor. She turned away and dropped her jeans to the floor. Hannah flipped them aside with her foot, then climbed back up on the bed. Standing above me in her bra and panties was more arousing. She stepped forward so that her crotch was inches from my face.
I leaned forward, pressed my nose into her crotch, and took a deep breath, âGod, you smell good.â Her pheromones made a beeline to my cock.
Hannah stepped back on the floor and removed her bra and panties, âSorry, Iâm not very creative with a strip tease.â
âI appreciate the creativityâ I encouraged her.
âThanks. How about if I just stand here in all my nakedness?â
âThat works.â
I was rock hard now and it was easy to stroke myself. I was thinking I needed some lube when Hannah crawled up on the bed and got very close to my cock.
She smiled, âIâm observing.â
I laughed.
Hannah ran her hand down my thigh, âPerhaps you should position yourself so that I can see your asshole. I need to know if it contracts when you cum.â
âOh. Okay.â
I slouched down at her headboard. I placed my feet so that my legs were spread  out and knees bent; and she had a good view of my anus. She was kneeling in front of me. I licked my stroke hand to provide some lubrication. Now her stereo was playing A-Ha. The cut was âTake On Meâ.
Hannah said, âI can provide some saliva.â She leaned forward dribbled some spit on the head of my cock.
I smiled, âThatâs helpful.â
âBut probably not enough.â She grabbed my stroke hand and placed her mouth on my cock, sucking away.
âI think that defeats the purpose of the assignment.â
She came off for a moment, âI donât care.â
Hannah soon had my entire shaft wet with saliva. She stroked me with her hands while sucking and churning the head in her mouth. The stereo filled the room with âShoutâ from Tears For Fears.Â
When I groaned my appreciation, I felt her finger at my ass. I think she had her juices on her finger because she slipped right in. She found my prostate.
âOh god, Hannah. Hannah. Cumming. Iâm cumming.â The stereo rumbled;Â âShout, shout, let it all outâ.
Everything sped up, her mouth, her fingers rubbing in my ass. I grabbed my knees and pulled my legs toward me. The point of no return approached and my world narrowed to my cock and ass. My body started quaking uncontrollably. Hannahâs eyes were locked in on mine as she swallowed everything I shot. I threw my head back as my orgasm continued. All I could feel was her fingers rubbing my prostate and her mouth on my cock, churning, sucking, licking. I tried to say something, but a croaking sound came out.
Suddenly my cock was beyond sensitive, âPlease.â I released my knees and held her face, âPlease.â
âStop?â She asked for clarification.
âYes.â
Hannah climbed up and lay down next to me. She kissed me with closed lips. I grabbed her face and probed my tongue into her salty mouth.
She eased off, âThatâs cool that you donât mind kissing me. I had a guy that wouldnât kiss me after he came in my mouth. By the way, I used what they did in the movie in class. It works.â
âWow, Does it ever.â I blurted out.
âYour whole body was shaking.â She told me.
âThank you, Hannah. That was amazing. If you let me recover for a couple minutes, I would love to return the favor.â
âOffer accepted,â Hannah said as she swung her leg over me and stared kissing me again.
After a few minutes of necking I was ready to go, âWhy donât you lie back and see what I can do for you.â
Something told me to hold off on straight licking. I decided to kiss her ear lobes and then went for her nipples. I licked my way across her stomach and stopped at her pubes to breathe in her scent.
Her clit was prominent at the top of her slit and her inner labia extended out a little. She had shaved her labia. I lapped up her juices, then moved to her clit.
I looked up at Hannah. Her eyes were locked in on me.
She whispered, âMaybe not straight, constant licking. Ease up a little from time to time so I donât get numb.â
I followed her advice. Eurythmics was filling the room with a hypnotic spell from âSweet Dreams Are Made of These.â
Hannah grabbed her nipples and was rolling them, âOh, Dan. Oh.â I assumed that was a signal that she was cumming. I probed into her vagina and found her g spot.
âAh.â Hannahâs vagina started contracting. She arched her back and I could hear her panting. She forcibly pressed my forehead away from her crotch. I kept rubbing her g spot.
Then Hannah wrapped her legs around my head and began bucking her hips. I took this as some kind of signal to stop.
Slowly her body relaxed, âOh my god. Dan, come up here.â
I climbed up next to her.
âThat was so nice. Letâs climb in under the covers. I want to snuggle with you.â
As I held her, I whispered, âI can see why people sleep with each other. This is cozy.â
âVery cozy.â I concurred.The mix tape faded to  SinĂŠad O'Connor sang âNothing Compares 2 U.â I faded to slumber.
Sleeping With Hannah
As I emerged from sleep, I sensed a warm body next to me. When I opened my eyes, it was dark. I saw a lighted alarm clock across the room. I tried to place where I was and then I remembered. Hannah.
When I emerged from sleep again, the room was light. I lay still, savoring the moment. We lay like spoons. My arm was under Hannahâs head. Her ass was pressed up against me and I had a bit of morning wood. My other hand was on her hip. She felt so silky and soft.
After a bit of time, Hannah stirred.
She rolled over, âGood morning.â
âGood morning, Hannah.â
âIs this one of those mythical morning woodies?â
âNot mythical. I wake up with one on a regular basis.â
âSo, it isnât because of me.â
âNo, but I have to say that sleeping with you is just short of heavenly.â
âAgreed. Shall we start our day?â
âI could use a shower.â
âSo could I. I wish I could take one with you, but the other girls on the floor might be either offended or jealous.â
Breakfast
Over breakfast, Hannah asked, âSo, what do you think about Elizabeth Bennet?â
âElizabeth Bennet? Do I know her?â
âFrom Pride and Prejudice?â
âOh. Yes.â I remembered. â Kind of early in the book, but I have to say that the situation that her and her sisters are in is horrible.â
âThings were not good for women back in jolly old England. I think thatâs the 1800s. Or anywhere else for that matter.â
âShe sounds like someone I would like to know.â I said. âShe seems smart, independent. Sheâs got a very strong will. Probably a lot like you.â
Hannah smiled, âThanks. And youâre still early in the book. What do you think of Jane Austenâs writing?â
âLove it. So lyrical.â
Friday Masturbation Assignment
On Friday afternoon, we finally got around to conducting our masturbation assignment. Here is what I wrote for Dr. Miller:
My observer was Hannah. She was also my partner as you will see.
I positioned myself on my bed so that my partner could observe me. I made sure my legs were such that she could see my anus. By mutual agreement, we were both naked so that I would be aroused by her body. Hannah has a beautiful body. I began pulling on my penis to get it hard. It did not take long given the goddess in front of me. Normally I would use saliva to lubricate myself, but my partner allowed me to use some of her vaginal juice as lubrication. It was much slicker and much more effective.
Once I was hard, I stroked myself in the usual manner, focusing on the head of my penis and the sensitive edge. I am circumcised and the scar is a little sensitive as well. My partner asked me to let her know when I was getting close. I focused on her charms and after several minutes, I felt my orgasm approaching. I let my partner know.
Hannah slipped two lubricated fingers into my anus and massaged my prostate just like the film we saw in class. The ensuing orgasm was one of the most intense experiences of my life. All my focus centered on my erection and my prostate. As I came, my body began shaking uncontrollably. I shot my load all over my chest. There were three distinct strings of cum, plus a smaller fourth string. Once I shot my load, I stopped stroking myself because of sensitivity, but my partner kept rubbing my prostate and the intense orgasm continued for about 30 seconds.
Unlike a regular orgasm, this was much more of a whole-body orgasm. The shaking lasted as long as Hannah rubbed my prostate.
Afterwards I was exhausted. We both tasted my semen. It was a little salty and a little musky. My partner thought it tasted a little like mushrooms.
Here is Hannahâs submission:
I positioned myself on the bed with my legs spread so that my partner (Dan) could observe me. I have a fantasy that I use to arouse myself. I imagine kissing a movie star. Dan said he would sit in for the movie star. Plus, he was naked and in person! He let me run my fingers through his chest hair and hold his penis. After we had been kissing for a while, I thought I was ready. My partner moved back and I began rubbing my clit in my usual way small, quick
It was Chicago, in the mid 1980s. Those were very different times. Fashion and language were different. Technology was quite different. We didnât have the internet, and cable television was just becoming widespread. Pubic hair was uncut & often not trimmed.. The only sexual fear for straight people was getting pregnant; and the pill mostly took care of that.
I was a senior and I needed both a literature class and social science class to complete my general education requirements to graduate. Because of my class standing, I was finally going to be able to register early in the cycle. I filled out several possible registration cards, and waited dutifully in the line. When I got to the registration window, I was pleasantly surprised to find that SOC 369 Human Sexuality was still open. I registered for the class and hoped it was everything the rumors made it out to be.
As the Spring Semester started, I tried to find out if I knew anyone in SOC 369. None of my engineering classmates were interested. And I was disappointed to find that none of my female friends had registered for it either. It had the potential to be less than fun. But I remembered the stories about the course lots of discussion of sex, sex, and sex. It couldnât be that bad.
The class was scheduled for Tuesday and Thursday afternoons. The first class was on a Thursday and I arrived ten minutes early for the first class. The room was already packed. On the front desk were two piles of papers with a sign that said, âTake one of each.â One was the syllabus and the other was a list of assignments with details and due dates.
Thursday Pre-Class
I looked around the packed room and saw a seat next to a pretty blonde. âIs this seat taken?â
âIt looks like itâs perfect for you."Â She chuckled.
The next morningâs sun found its way in through our porthole once again. We had sorted ourselves out somewhat during the night. I was on my side, tangled in a bit of sheet. She was on her side, tangled in a bit of blanket. I could just make out the pale tan lines on her bottom and her back.
Weâd become cabin buddies of a different order. At the Jack-and-Ciara level. Thatâs probably what most people would have assumed all along, but I certainly hadnât, and I didnât think that she had either.
And yet, here we were.
I waited a while for her to wake up, but she didnât. So I finally got up myself.
Weâd just passed through the entrance in the seawall at Ensenada and were coming up to our docking site. The pilot, or maybe it was the captain himself, was standing on a little deck that jutted out from the side of the ship to joy-stick our massive vessel precisely up to the pier.
Molly was still in bed when I got back. She smiled and went to the bathroom, a little embarrassed to be still naked while I was already dressed. Her pubic hair, I noticed, was trim and attractive.
She came out wearing a towel and had her coffee. We checked the dayâs schedule. She was delighted to discover that theyâd transferred Mrs. Pendergastâs excursion ticket to me.
A little later that morning we went ashore. It was a strange sensation, stepping off the gangway into a foreign country. Somehow I expected every little thing to be different and exotic, but the first thing we encountered, sprouting up through a crack in the pavement, was a little tuft of grass. Nothing exotic at all, just plain old grass.
Our excursion van was heralded by a woman with a clipboard, a younger, more boisterous, Mexican Denise. There were three other couples in our group and a single unaccompanied woman about Ciaraâs age. I took a seat next to the window with Molly beside me with the unaccompanied woman next to her. Her name was Meryl. This was her first real vacation since her divorce. She was really excited to be having such an adventure.
Maiden Voyage: Part 1
Thursday, March 19, 2026 ⢠Duration
Strangers forced to share a cabin on a cruise ship.
The waiting area outside the Long Beach cruise terminal was abuzz with bright new outfits and happy chatter. It was enough to make even the most reserved introvert start to feel a bit of excitement.
I was standing with Jack and Ciara, two regulars of the social group. Jack was tall and rugged, something to do with landscaping; Ciara tall and willowy, worked in an office of some sort. They werenât an official couple, as far as I knew, but they seemed to have hooked up for the New Year s Pacific cruise. That was sort of the way the group worked. Thirty somethings, mostly divorced, intent on maintaining the hard playing lifestyle of their twenties, looking for like-minded dating partners to do it with.
Jack was explaining the different cruise drink payment plans. I smiled politely and nodded, thinking how different from theirs my life would be when I got to be their age.
Denise bustled up in a pretty pastel pantsuit with her clipboard in her hand. She was a travel agent and the mother hen of the group, forty-something and no longer trying so hard to pretend she was any younger. She d put together this group and made a nice extra income for her troubles.
âHector,â she said, ushering me a step aside, âIâm afraid thereâs been a mix up with your reservation. Somehow your single cabin didnât show up on the final printout.â She gave me a concerned look. âTheyâre working on it,, Â but we may have to double you up with someone.â
This came as a bit of a rude surprise. One of the only reasons Iâd finally agreed to come on the cruise in the first place had been her assurance that Iâd be able to have a single. It wasnât that I was antisocial really, but I had my limits.
âYou know Mrs. Pendergast, donât you?â
Mrs. Pendergast was an older woman, well into her sixties. She wasnât a regular member of the group, but it amused her sometimes to hang with a younger crowd. The group let her tag along to some of their events. I was going to have to share a room with Mrs. Pendergast?
I sat on the sofa staring out the back window and across the yard, wondering what they were talking about. A few minutes turned into half an hour, which turned into almost an hour. My curiosity finally got the best of me and I snuck down the hall as quietly as I could. I stopped at the door and listened, hoping to hear their conversation. But conversation was not what I heard. What I heard was soft gentle moaning. Two different sounds of moaning. I shook my head in confusion and pushed the door open silently, moving it ever so slowly so that the hinge, which occasionally squeaks, wouldnât. I peeked around the door to the bed and stood there, staring.
No wonder I didnât hear them talking. Linda was laying on the bed, as naked as she had been in the kitchen, with her feet on my pillow, her knees pushed wide. My wife on top, held herself on her hands and knees, equally naked, with her head between Lindaâs legs, licking her cunt, while moaning in pleasure at Lindaâs attentions to hers.
I stepped into the room and neither seemed to notice me at all. I watched the two of them making out, licking each other, driving the other toward climax. Was this why Nancy wasnât interested in sex with me any longer? Was she getting it from Linda instead? I hadnât ever known her to be interested in other women, at least not in that way. But it was hard to deny what I was seeing. It didnât take my body long to respond to what I was seeing, my cock soon standing hard and rigid. Pointing up over the horizon, like an artillery cannon barrel.
No, if she was getting it from Linda, I was damn well going to make sure she understood what she was giving up. I stepped to the end of the bed, looking at my wifeâs ass and cunt, held in the air by her knees, while Linda licked and played with her swollen clit. Linda saw me and smiled. She moved her hand from my wifeâs ass and reached for my cock. She pulled me in toward her, pulling my engorged head toward both her mouth and my wifeâs cunt. She aimed me right to my wifeâs sopping wet lips and then used her other hand to reach around my ass and coaxed me into the âdocking portalâ. Sheâd stopped licking my wife and rubbed my engorged head up and down Nancyâs slit, wetting my mushroom with my wifeâs juices.
âNow that that is settled, I need something in return for going. I myself am in a social bind of sorts. You see I organized a guyâs camping trip with two of my friends awhile back. After talking with another of my friends I decided to invite him, too, which my friend Sam then took as a license to invite his girlfriend along. I should explain that Sam and Beth, his girlfriend, both live at home so heâs obviously doing this to get laid, but I digress. Anyway knowing I would object Sam told Tim, the other friend I originally invited, that Beth was coming so he should invite his wife Erin. They have a newborn and somehow got a sitter for the weekend so of course Erin is coming. Upon hearing that Beth and Erin were coming I had to tell Ryan, my third friend, that his fiancĂŠe Amber was invited and of course she is now also coming.
It had been another typical Friday evening on the train for Jeremy. He was glad to see the week at last come to an end, not to mention he was looking forward to meeting with his buddies, once this infernal train finally reached his stop.
âOnly six stops to go,â he reminded himself, as both time and the train seemed to crawl along. The train was better than driving from his far suburb to the downtown, and back each day. He knew it was far faster too, but still some days that hour seemed so much longer, and this was one of them.
We got to the resort and it was everything we expected. It was a cheesy resort built for âromance weekendsâ. They did a have a âlodge restaurantâ and because it was off-season, we had no problem getting our choice of cabins and were told to come down the restaurant at any time.
The guy working the front desk told us that the hot tub on the deck was usable, but suggested that we turn the heat on before dinner if we wanted to use it later. He also mentioned the romance package and asked if he could have it delivered while we dined. He said all of this unironically and without embarrassment.
I was midway through my first year of Graduate school, getting my MBA, when my girlfriend, Tara, asked if I wanted to drive to her familyâs house a few hours away for the weekend. It was her Mother and Step-Fatherâs 20th wedding party and I jumped at the chance to get away from campus for a few days. The party was scheduled for April 2nd, but their actual anniversary was April 1st, which was a running joke in the family. The chance to get away sounded great and I knew that Tara and I would always find ways to entertain ourselves on long car rides.

She smiled sweetly, âIâm Hannah.â
A woman in her forties entered the room and began walking around talking to students. I assumed this was the famous Dr. Miller. She was tall and thin with a nice figure. She was professionally dressed in a skirt, blouse, and blazer. The skirt came to just above the knee and showed some shapely, bare legs. She started working the room.
When she got to us, she said, âHannah, good to see you again. Did you have a good winter break?â
âI did Dr. Miller.â
Dr. Miller turned to me and extended her hand, âA new person in my class.â
I stuck out my hand, âPleased to meet you Dr. Miller. Dan McDevitt.â
âA senior. Mechanical engineering major. Wow! Iâm impressed." She chuckled at herself, "I try to learn about my students beforehand. It isnât hard if you actually care about people.â She looked at her watch, âShow time.â
Dr. Miller walked to the front of the room, âLetâs get started. My name is Dr. Shannon Miller. This class is S O C 3 69, Human Sexuality. If you arenât registered, you will have to leave. No auditing.â
Two guys got up and headed toward the door.
She continued, âIt isnât that I want to be a hard ass, but if I didnât have that limitation, this place would be standing room only. If you are curious how the course was numbered, I asked for it and there was no objection until I was teaching it for three semesters. By then it was too late to change it.â
There were some scattered laughs and giggles.
âWeâll skip the usual introductions. I think I know everyone. If you donât know your classmates, I think you will quickly learn about them.â
âAs the title suggests, this is a course in human sexuality. I must tell you that this class will get very graphic at times. We will examine the wide range of human sexual activity, from straight sex to some of the kinkiest stuff you can imagine. This may be uncomfortable for some of you. As a class, we can overcome this discomfort by keeping our minds open, being respectful of each other, and sharing our thoughts. Given the number of smiles, that sounds like what a lot of you signed up for.
"I expect everyone to act as an adult. I donât want to hear titters and I donât want to hear anyone shaming anyone else. Respect is our watch word. If you cannot act as a mature adult and show respect to everyone in the room, then I will ask you to leave. If you do not voluntarily leave, I will have campus security remove you. I donât fuck around with any of that. And yes, I have a potty mouth. I want everyone to feel safe here. This class is like Las Vegas. If someone shares some intimate part of their life, I expect it to stay in this room. Am I clear?
Dr. Miller looked each of us in the eye, "Good. Does anyone want to leave?â Again she looked around.
âVery well. I will also use a lot of visual aids photos and film. This is not pornography. Since this is a liberal arts college, I am a strong believer that this is a time for you to explore and learn about yourself. I cannot require that you engage in sexual activity. That would be unethical and for many people, immortal. I will provide alternative assignments that you are free to undertake. In the assignment sheet I provide details on how you can fulfill both regular and alternative assignments. For example, after todayâs class, you may decide to experiment with self-love. Essentially, in the privacy of your room you can masturbate and then report on your observations. If you would like to have an observer present, that is also an option. Any questions?â
âSeeing none, weâll get started.â She went to the front of the class and pulled down a screen. She flipped on an overhead projector and placed a slide on it, âSo here is a very simple question: Why do we want to have sex? Danielle.â
âBecause it makes us feel good.â
âYes, it does. Brian.â
âWe have a drive to reproduce.â
Dr. Miller walked to the side of the room, âOne of our strongest instincts. Sarah.â
âBecause we are attracted to the other person and we want to be intimate with them.â
âAh. Intimacy. Another strong drive. Hannah.â
âOrgasms.â
Dr. Miller laughed, âYes. The elephant in the room. Today we will discuss orgasms.â She put up another slide, âSo what is the average time it takes for a man to reach orgasm if he is masturbating? Dan.â
âFive minutes.â
âNot that long. Greg?â
âFour?â
âAlmost. Rich?â
He laughed, âMaybe three?â
âGood guess! Three minutes. So how long does it take a woman to reach orgasm if she is masturbating? Bridget?â
âIâm guessing. Four minutes?â
âYes, good guess. So what can we conclude from those two numbers. Elizabeth.â
âThat men and women are pretty close to having the same sexual response if they are stimulated properly.â
âExcellent! If you are gay, lesbian, or a virgin, you donât have to answer this next question. By a show of hands, how many of you know that your partner reaches orgasm during straight sex? Penis in vagina sex.â
Of the 25 people in the room, about 18 hands went up.
âPlease leave your hands up. We have ten men and eight women. Now, how many of You reach orgasm during straight sex?â
All the men left their hands up, but only one woman left their hand up.â
"Very interesting. So ladies, the men think you are having an orgasm when you really arenât. Am I reading that correctly?â
Several female heads were nodding.
âWhy is that? Hannah.â
âWe fake it.â
Dr. Miller shook her head, âWe fake it. Thatâs kind of sad. Why? Rich.â
âThe woman doesnât want to make us feel bad.â
âYeah. Studies have shown that menâs egos are easily bruised when it comes to sex. Some women also want to boost their partnerâs ego. Why else? Anne.â
âTo get it over with.â
There was laughter around the room.
Dr. Miller continued, âYou laugh, but I think Anne is not making that up.â Anne shook her head. âI think you will find that sometimes straight sex is not pleasant for many women, mostly because their male partner doesnât know what theyâre doing.â
âAnyone else? Roxane.â
âTo avoid being shamed and being thought to be frigid.â
âThat is a big one. By the way, no woman is frigid. That is a myth developed by men to compensate for their poor sexual performance. One last item. Sometimes a woman fakes an orgasm for non-sexual reasons such as trying to cement a relationship, become someoneâs girlfriend or fiancĂŠe. Questions or comments?â
Dr. Miller looked around the room, âI find all this very interesting. Gentlemen, do you know how to tell if your partner is actually having an orgasm or faking it?â
I shook my head. I thought I knew, but now I had my doubts. I looked around and the other guys looked just as puzzled.
Dr. Miller said, âDonât be embarrassed guys. Youâve taken the first step to becoming a much better lover. Carlos, are you ready?â
I just realized that there was a guy at the back of the room manning a film projector, âYes, Dr. Miller.â
She pointed to a guy near the door, âSam?â He nodded. âYes, Sam. Can you hit the lights?â
Sam killed the lights and a film began to roll.
The title flashed up, âOrgasmic Response in Human Females.â The first scene had a bunch of co-eds walking and talking on a college campus somewhere. A female narrator said, âOne of the most misunderstood aspects of human sexuality is the orgasmic response of human females. This film will briefly examine this topic.â
The scene changed to a couple making out. âIt should be noted that approximately five to ten percent of women are incapable of having an orgasm. This is often due to some physical limitation.â
A graphic came up, âThere are two types of female orgasm: vaginal and clitoral. The first, vaginal orgasm, is described by women as starting deeper in their body and elicits a full body response. These types of orgasms are caused by objects in the vagina stimulating the walls, Gräfenberg spot or G spot, and cervix.â
An anatomical diagram came up. âThe G spot is located on the anterior wall of the vagina. When a woman is standing, it can be thought of as the upper side of the vagina.â A red arrow pointed to a spot on the diagram, âIn its relaxed state, the G spot is smooth. As a woman becomes more aroused, it becomes wrinkled. The G spot is best stimulated digitally with one or two fingers using a âcome hitherâ motion.â
A photo of a womanâs vulva came on the screen, âClitoral orgasms have a more localized reaction and are caused by stimulation of the clitoris and clitoral hood area.â Red arrows appeared on the screen, âClitoral orgasms are more intense, but are shorter in duration than a vaginal orgasm.
"There are several signs that a woman is experiencing an orgasm. Please note that not all women display all these signs.â
A photo of a light skinned vulva was displayed, âFirst, blood will rush to a womanâs skin and in light skinned women, this will be seen as flushed skin. Blood will also rush to a womanâs clitoris, vulva, and vagina. Often the clitoris will become engorged with blood and may extend out of the clitoral hood.â
The screen shifted to a photo of a lovely pair of breasts with large, erect nipples, âSecond, a womanâs nipples will be erect. Most women experience pleasure when their nipples are stimulated either orally or manually. Although not all women experience hard nipples during an orgasm, most do. Typically a womanâs nipples are hard, erect, and sensitive. In all cases, an orgasm will increase a womanâs heart rate. Often to between 160 and 210 beats per minute.
"Letâs observe an actual female orgasm. This will be a clitoral orgasm.â
The screen shifted to a camera angle that was directly between a young, naked womanâs legs. She had a nice bush, but her labia were shaved. The focus was on her vulva, but the rest of her body was visible in soft focus. She was small-breasted and had applied a small vibrator directly to her clit. Her vagina was slightly open and juices ran across her perineum.
âThis womanâs orgasm is about to begin. I direct your attention to her vaginal opening, her anus, her nipples, and her face.â
The woman began panting, her eyes closed, and her mouth took on the classic O shape. Her pelvic muscles began rhythmically contracting and you could clearly see her vagina and anus pulsing out a steady rhythm. Her nipples were hard and she reached up and pulled hard on one of them.
âDuring her orgasm, all her focus is on the stimulation being directed to her clitoris. She is unaware that her breathing has increased and her eyes are closed. Most women are incapable of vocalizing anything during orgasm. It should be noted that after orgasm, a womanâs clitoris is very sensitive.â
âNow letâs observe a vaginal orgasm.â
Once again, the screen was filled with a womanâs vulva. Someone was fucking her with a smooth dildo. The angle was upward, striking the top of her vagina. She was rolling both her nipples.
âOnce again, this womanâs orgasm is about to begin. Observe her vagina, nipples, and face.â
As the orgasm began, her eyes practically popped out of her head. She let out a long groan, mouth open. You could see her vagina contracting on the dildo. She came for probably about a half a minute. And then the film was over.
Dr. Miller said, âSam, can you flip on the lights? So what did we observe? Dan.â
âIn both cases, the womanâs vagina was contracting. On the first one, so was her anus.â
âGood observation. Actually, her anus was contracting on the second one, but your view was blocked. I donât want to say every time since life has no absolutes, but in at least 999 times out of a thousand, the womanâs pelvic muscles will contract during orgasm. Those contractions affect both the vagina and the anus. What else? Sam.â
âNeither woman was talking or saying anything.â
âLet me ask one of our female colleagues why. Hannah.â
âBecause you are completely focused on the pleasure. When youâre cumming, you donât have to or want to say a thing.â
âGreat point. A sure-fire way to know a woman is faking an orgasm is that she is very vocal. Some of you look surprised. Gents, how many of you say something when youâre ejaculating?â She looked around, âNo one. Why is that? Dave.â
âMy mind focuses on whatâs happening with my cock.â
There was some laughter.
Dr. Miller said, âA little crude, but I like that term  cock.â She said it again with emphasis, âCock. What else did you observe about the orgasms? Brian.â
âDr. Miller, with the second one, I think that was a dildo, the dildo was at a different angle like it was hitting the top of her vagina instead of going all the way in.â
âExcellent. The narrator mentioned something called the Gräfenberg spot or G spot. That is on the roof of the vagina and the dildo was striking it. Is anyone familiar with the g spot? Roxane.â
âMy boyfriend took your class last semester. He loves to rub mine.â
âWhoâs your boyfriend?â
âAndy.â
âIâm glad to hear my class has had a positive impact on your life.â
âLife changing Dr. Miller. Mind-blowing.â
Dr. Miller chuckled, âWeâll learn more about the g spot next class. Carlos, are you ready with the next film?â
âYes, ma'am.â
âSam, if you please.â
The lights went out and the screen lit up. âOrgasmic Response in Human Malesâ.
The screen was filled with four guys in athletic attire walking across a field. A man began narrating, âThis film will examine the orgasmic response in human males. Ejaculation is often associated with orgasm in males. While these events often occur simultaneously, they are distinct and separate events. Orgasm is characterized by pelvic contractions, intense pleasure, and release. Ejaculation is the expulsion of semen from the penis. While rare, some men can experience non-ejaculatory orgasms.â
The screen was filled with side-by-side pictures of penises, one uncircumcised and the other circumcised. âWhile each penis is different, they come in two distinct varieties, circumcised and uncircumcised. A circumcised penis has had the foreskin surgically removed. The absence of the foreskin has no impact on a maleâs ability to reach orgasm.â
There was a close-up of a penis head. âThe glans is the most sensitive area.â A red arrow appeared, âThe crown of the glans or the edge is filled with countless nerve endings.â Another arrow appeared, âThe frenulum is another sensitive area.â
Now there was an anatomy diagram, âThe prostate gland is another source of pleasure. It can be accessed directly through the anus or massaged by pressing on the perineum.â
âLetâs observe an ejaculatory orgasm brought on by masturbation.â
The screen was filled with a guy stroking his erection. He had his legs up so that his ass was visible. I was surprised that they selected a smaller than average cock. Then I remembered that this was an academic film and not pornography.
âThis man has been manually stimulating his penis. His orgasm is about to begin. Observe the pelvic contractions seen at the base of his shaft and at the anus.â
Sure enough, there were the contractions and almost simultaneously he let loose a string of cum that shot out of the picture.
âOh!â Several of my classmates responded.
Two more shots of lesser amounts came forth. He stopped stroking, âThe penis becomes very sensitive after orgasm and often cannot be touched.â
The screen shifted to another erection. This time a man was prone with his feet either side of his ass, âThis man has manually brought himself to the edge of orgasm. A partner will now digitally stimulate his prostate.â
The guy stopped stroking and what looked like a female hand probed his asshole. She slipped two lubed fingers in and began moving.
âThe prostate is a walnut sized gland located on the anterior wall of the rectum. This manâs orgasm is about to begin. Once again, observe the contractions at the base of his penile shaft and anus.â
The contractions began and this time the guy shot his load onto his chest. Four shots total. I
We drove through the streets of Ensenada, our guide giving us a bit of local color in her prettily accented English. The scene was at once familiar and strange: traffic and lane markings and stop lights just exactly like at home, but unintelligible store signs in unlikely colors painted directly on pastel stucco walls. Beyond the city were dusty, cactus-strewn hills not unlike the Catalina hinterland.
Our destination was a site called the Bufadora, a cleft in the rocky sea cliff where ocean waves sent up enormous geyser-like sprays. The sprays were so high that we got wet even at our vantage point fifty feet above the water.
The path back from the observation point was lined with gaudy souvenir shops, like the midway of a county fair. Meryl had tagged along with Molly and me. We stopped at one of the taco stands for lunch.
âSo how did you guys meet?â
Molly didnât volunteer an answer.
 "Just here on the cruise, actually,â I said.
"Really? See, arenât cruises great?â Molly gushed.
After lunch we went into one of the souvenir shops and Meryl asked our opinion about all the little nick-nacks she wanted to buy. When we got back to the van, I ended up sitting in the middle.
âThe nicest thing.â she said. âis that every day you make new friends.â
We drove back through town, then out into the desert in a different direction to a picturesque winery. We sat around a table on a palm-shaded patio and sampled the different vintages. Meryl chatted on about Simi Valley and the cruise and her ex and the weather and the ship and the people sheâd met. She got me to go into the little gift shop with her to help pick out a couple bottles.
Molly was quiet at dinner. I had to remind her that weâd made plans to see the comedy show with Meryl.
âIâve got a bit of a headache,â she said. âI think Iâll go back to the room.â
Meryl was waiting in the forward theatre. She was sorry to hear about Mollyâs headache and put her hand on my arm to convey her concern. The show turned out to be pretty adult-rated, pretty raunchy in fact. Meryl yucked it up
After the show she suggested we take a spin about the deck. The ship had set sail again and we were just passing the exposed wreck that lies up against the sea wall. Somehow Meryl managed to tuck herself inside my arm.
âWouldnât you just love to go dancing?â she cooed.
âI, uh, Â Actually, Iâve kind of got to go now.â
âBut the night is still young. Meryl rebutted. Letâs at least stop by my room first.â
âIâve got to check on Molly.â I insisted
âWe can open one of the tequilas.â
âThanks, but,
"Itâs just that, I was kind of hoping to get lucky tonight.â
Christ Almighty. A guy tries to be a gentleman. I didnât need an etiquette book for this one. I finally managed to pry myself away,
When I got back to the room, Molly was in her pajamas, watching TV.
âIs your headache any better?â I asked.
She didnât look up from the screen.
I sat on the chair and twisted around to see what she was watching. A travelogue of some sort.
âYou didnât miss much,â I said. âThe show was kind of,â
But she leaned in closer to the screen to make it clear that I was interrupting her program. Something about the way the locals made their tortillas.
OK. I got the message. She didnât like the fact that Iâd gone to the show with Meryl. I went into the bathroom to pee. Iâd only been trying to be polite to a fellow cruise member. Was that a crime? Molly had been there when weâd made the plans. I thought that sheâd been trying to be friendly too. That weâd sort of taken Meryl under our wing.
I came out of the bathroom a minute later, and sat down on the chair again. The secret to the tortillas, apparently, had something to do with lime juice.
âI didnât expect to see you back here tonight,â Molly said. In a sarcastic tone of voice. As if my presence was an imposition. As if she was sorry sheâd ever offered to share the room in the first place.
I didnât even bother to answer. I got undressed, then crawled up onto my side of the bed. Where else was I supposed to go? I got under the blanket and turned toward the bulkhead. A guy tries to be a gentleman. And this is what he gets.
I woke up first again, the next morning. I went up on deck. Did she really think that Iâd found Meryl even the least bit attractive? She was a fellow shipmate, nothing more. Iâd thought that weâd both been trying to be polite to her. Was that a crime?
I brought back coffee and a croissant, but Molly was still asleep. Or pretending to be. I banged around a little, but she didnât budge. Finally I got fed up and left.
So here I was again, back to my usual routine, wandering down empty corridors, drifting up little-used gangways, poking around lonely corners where nobody else much ever cared to go. Doing what I probably would have been doing if Iâd gotten my single in the first place.
I came back to the room around lunch time, but Molly wasnât there. I wandered up to the pool. Denise was there, chatting with some people. She waved. Meryl was there, stalking about, but I managed to slip away before she saw me. But no Molly.
It was a long day. The ship had parked itself out in the middle of the ocean somewhere. Or maybe the rest of the world really had blown itself up and they just hadnât told us. I eventually ended up back in the little coffee shop at the tail end of the ship. The sky seemed a lot flatter though, the seagulls a lot more listless, my algorithms a lot less interesting. Finally I got up again and trudged back down into the labyrinth.
The casino was practically empty. The lower piano bar was closed. The little art gallery was still showing the same old photographs.
The gift shop was open. The same lady was behind the counter. What was it that Molly had asked to see? A necklace. It must have been, that one. The lady brought it out. A pair of crystalline dolphins on a slender silver chain. They sparkled in the light.
Molly still wasnât in the room when I got back. This time our towel had been folded into a seal, sunning itself on the bedspread. I moved it a little closer to her pillow and arranged the necklace around its neck.
There were still a couple hours until dinner. I thought it might be better if I wasnât there when she got back.
I got to dinner right on time. It was our last night on board, and the dining room was even more boisterous than usual.
âWhereâs Molly?â asked Ciara.
âShe had a little headache. She might not be joining us.â
Valentin our waiter was really joshing it up, angling for a big end-of-trip tip. He was just taking the drink orders when Molly appeared. She was wearing a pink skirt, a whitish blouse,, Â and the necklace. Her eye caught mine as she made her way around the table, but quickly shot away again.
Ciara asked her how she was doing. The couple on my other side were there for once. Tom and somebody. He was in air conditioning and gave me the full rundown. It was too noisy for Molly and me to talk, but every time I looked, she was still wearing the necklace.
It being our last night, the waiters were going to put on a little show. Just after they passed out the dessert plates they went into a huddle near the service entrance. Molly leaned over.
âDo you want to go back to the room?â
We got up.
âOh, are you guys going to the revue?â asked Ciara.
Molly replied in the louder voice you had to use to make yourself heard. But the room was beginning to quiet down in a hush, as the waiters were taking their places, and so the whole table heard what she said.
âMake-up sex.â
The table burst into laughter. Molly continued her way out of the room, and I just followed sheepishly behind her.
âCan you forgive me?â she asked as we got out into the hallway.
âFor letting everybody know where weâre going?â
âFor last night. Iâm so sorry for the way I acted. It was my fault. It was all my fault.â
âThe worst part is, we wasted a whole day,â I remorsed.
âWe still have tonight.â She tried to assure me.
âYeah. We still have tonight.â I agreed.
As soon as we got into the room we fell into each otherâs arms.
âI love the necklace,â she murmured.
âIt looks really nice on you.â
We kissed and shuffled toward the bed.
But my blood was pumping. I was thinking about our wasted day.
âLetâs do something first, want to? I pleaded. Itâs our last night. Letâs get our moneyâs worth. Letâs go to the show! Letâs go dancing! Letâs shoot for that royal flush! The bed will still be here when we get back. But letâs make up for some of the things we didnât do today. Letâs paint the ship red. Okay? Want to? C'mon! Hup hup!â
Jack and Ciara were surprised to see us at the theatre.
âThat was quick,â Ciara said with a look of astonishment.
Molly blushed. I put my arm around her and pulled her tight. âYou ainât seen nothing yet.â
The review was Motown classics, the Supremes, the Four Tops. âYou canât hurry love, no youâll just have to wait, The whole auditorium was singing along. The girls pulled Jack and me up from our seats to dance in the aisle. "Sugar pie, honeybunch, you know that I love you,
Afterwards, the night was balmy, perfect for a stroll on deck. We could see lights off in the distance, the rest of the world was still there after all! We ran into Meryl, wrapped in the arm of a dapper, middle-aged gentleman whose smile was just as smug as hers was. We exchanged pleasantries. She gave us both a little wink.
Molly, perhaps I m clueless. Did you have any idea that Meryl was going to try to hit on me? I had to ask.
Oh, my God! Molly stared at me. All day long, she was angling for you. I thought you were trying for a threesome, and my fake headache was me forcing you to choose one or the other.
What? I thought you and I were just trying to be hospitable; you know, so she d have some friends to socialize with.
Well, Molly confessed. I finally figured out that you were completely innocent, but it took me until late afternoon to dispel my worst presumptions.
I went to the show, because we told her we d both join her, there. I explained. When you were bedridden with a headache, I assumed it fell on me to go alone, even though I really didn t want to be away from you.
Ah, really? That s so sweet! Molly gushed. She gave me a deep kiss right there on the mezzanine. I assumed you went because you wanted another notch on your belt. Â I m so, so sorry.
Well, when the performance ended, I said I had to head back to you. She did try every diversion. I passed on all of them. Then she flatly told me she was hoping to get lucky with me. I told her I definitely could not accommodate that, and I walked straight back to our room.
Oh, I was awful to you! Molly lamented. But I was also right about that slut s intentions, wasn t I? Molly paused, then added; When I finally got over my inner rage, I realized that you didn t come back smelling like cunt. Hell, you didn t even have lipstick smeared on your face.  This afternoon, I finally left my hiding spot, and saw you were heading to dinner, I went to the cabin and saw this beautiful necklace. I literally cried. I don t deserve you. You don t deserve my juvenile drama. I d planned to skip the dinner, but when I saw the dolphin necklace, I had to come and grovel your forgiveness.
You know, Molly I paused. Perhaps I was too clueless, yesterday. Perhaps you were too presuming? Do you think we can both help to balance each other?
Oh, I love that! Yes, let s balance each other.
The nightclubs were hopping. We wound our way from one to the other, dancing one dance in each. But then we decided to forgo the casino and just head back to the cabin. And sure enough, the bed was still there, right where weâd left it.
We kissed. I ran my hands up along her sides, up inside her blouse. She undid my buttons and pulled open my shirt. I fiddled with her skirt and managed to slip it down over the swell of her hips. She unfastened my belt buckle and my button and my zipper. I slid my hands down inside her panties. She slid hers down inside my underpants. We pawed and shucked and kicked off everything that remained. And then she took off the very last thing that she was wearing, the crystalline necklace, and placed it carefully on the nightstand.
I backed her down onto the bed. I kissed the pretty spot where the necklace had been, and the spot next to that, and the spot next to that. She lay back and closed her eyes and let herself be kissed.
I settled myself down on top of her, stroking her full lovely body with my own, savoring her softness and her excitement, trying to fuse our unfortunate separateness into something more fulfilling. And somehow, in the midst of our kissing and our stroking, my penis must have slid up at just the right angle, and her hips must have been open to just the right degree, and we coupled, as adroitly as if that had been our conscious intention, as naturally as if we were two jungle cats whose lithe jungle bodies just instinctively knew how to fuck.
And somewhere in the midst of our coupling we sweetly came, but it was not so much a climax as just a sweet vista point along the way. For just as we hadnât consciously willed our engagement, neither did we ever willfully disengage, but just eventually nestled more comfortably down beside each other, still caressing, still softly kissing, still sweetly fused.
The loudspeaker blasted us awake early the next morning. Our luggage needed to be out in the hallway for pickup by eight o'clock sharp!
Molly wriggled a bit deeper under the blanket. "Uh,â she groaned. âJust five more minutes.â
I remembered the look on her face, when had it been? just four days ago, when we first learned we might have to share the cabin together. Sheâd been just as uncertain as I had. But now it was hard to imagine any other arrangement. Her lying in bed beside me, trying to squeeze in a few more minutes of sleep, leaving it up to me to keep track of the time, I wouldnât have had it any other way.
We hadnât begun to pack yet, but weâd kept things fairly organized. I gave her a generous five minutes, and then I gave her a little nudge. âC'mon, sleepyhead. Up and at um.â
She groaned, but she dragged herself out of bed. We were both still naked. I slipped on a pair of boxers, and she put on a T-shirt. It rode up in back, though, so that her pretty bottom kept peeking out as she went around collecting her things and tucking them into her suitcase.
âDo you kinda wish that the rest of the world really had blown itself up?â I asked.
She was folding one of her bras. âOh, I donât know. Weâd probably get tired of eating cheesecake eventually.â
âTheyâd run out. Then weâd have to eat whatever it is that Valentin eats.â
âHe gets cheesecake sometimes, donât you think? When they have some left over?â
âI donât know. Heâs pretty skinny.â
âI wonder why Meryl didnât think of him.â
âYeah. Good question. Wrong table, I suppose.â
âI suppose.â
I crammed my sports coat in between my shirts and my underwear bag. She gave the zipper of her suitcase a final tug. âBesides,â she said. âYour algorithms would miss you.â
I slipped on my trousers and rolled the bags out into the corridor. There were a surprising number of people walking by, and every single one of them gawked into the room as they passed. Nothing is more titillating to a person walking down a stateroom corridor than an open doorway.
When I got the door closed again, Molly was sitting up on the bed with the sheet pulled up in front of her and a rather indignant look on her face. What a lot of nerve some people had!
I couldnât help but smile. âI wonder what they thought you were hiding back there.â
She rolled her eyebrows.
But I was feeling a little playful. The final dayâs schedule was lying on the floor. I picked it up and pretended it was an official form.
âCustoms inspection, Miss, May I see what youâve got behind that sheet?â
She wasnât so sure she wanted to show me. She coyly raised the sheet a little higher.
âThat shirt youâre wearing, Miss. Did you purchase it abroad?â
She looked down behind the sheet. This old thing?.
âRegulations, Miss; It may contain contraband fibers.â I held out my hand. âMay I see it please?â
She huffed. Bureaucrats! Without letting go of the sheet she wriggled one arm out of its sleeve and then the ot
âApparently she got sick and had to cancel at the last minute. So we have an opening. She was sharing a room with, ah;â she double checked her forms; âa Ms. Crenshaw. I donât know her, but Iâm sure sheâs very nice. Itâs a double room, and you know how it is on a cruise. You donât spend that much time in your room anyway.â
I didnât even try to return her smile.
âTheyâre still working on your single, of course. I just wanted to let you know the fallback plan.â
Not only losing my single, but having to spend the cruise being polite to an old lady? In Deniseâs mind, that was what the social group was all about.
People were already starting to go into the terminal building when Denise came back, this time with an attractive young woman at her side. I wondered if it was Deniseâs daughter, there to see us off.
âHector,â she said, peering at me over the top of her glasses, âthis is Molly Crenshaw. Iâve been explaining our predicament.â
The girl gave me a weak smile. She was pretty, with long brown hair swept back, wearing white shorts and a light blue top. She didnât look like she could be a day over twenty-one. Not at all what I had pictured as a travelling companion for Mrs. Pendergast.
âItâs a double room,â Denise was explaining. âIâm sure theyâll be able to rig up a partition if need be. But this will be the first cruise for both of you. It will be nice to have a buddy to help you find your way around. Iâm sure the two of you will hit it off.â
Molly was still looking at me rather uncertainly. This apparently wasnât exactly what she had signed up for, either. She looked back at Denise. âWell, if his other room got cancelled,
Denise was delighted. The registration mix-up had been solved in an efficient and social-group-positive way. I couldnât believe she was being so cavalier about putting a guy and a girl who didnât even know each other into the same room together.
"Theyâre still working on my single though, right?â
âAs far as I know. Youâll be able to check with the Bursar once we get on board.â
Denise had more than enough smile for the three of us. They called our area for boarding.
âSee you on board,â she said, bustling off with her clipboard.
Going up the gangway onto the ship itself kind of blew me away. You entered onto the mezzanine level of what looked like the fanciest mall Iâd ever seen. There was an atrium that rose several stories high with glass elevators gliding up and down and fancy shops and glittering lights on every different level. On the floor below us a fellow in a tuxedo was playing a grand piano. All of this right in the middle of the ship. Mollyâs eyes were as wide as mine.
Theyâd told us to have lunch while the luggage was being brought on. Molly and I had come aboard with a bunch of other social groupers, but theyâd all buzzed off one way or another leaving the two of us by ourselves. We found a little sandwich and salad buffet.
âSo, your first cruise?â I asked. I was pretty sure Iâd be able to get the room situation straightened out, but there was no harm in being polite.
She assembled a forkful of salad. âYes, Mrs. Pendergast is a patient at the clinic where I work. Sheâs pretty chatty, you know. She kept talking about this fantastic cruise she was going on. But she needed a travelling companion to come along and sort of look after her.â She shrugged. â Mrs. Pendergast offered to cover the cost, if I d come with. I donât know, she has a way of getting what she wants.â
âIs she all right?â I asked.
âDenise says sheâs afraid she might be coming down with something. Sheâs a bit of a hypochondriac. But the tickets are already paid for, and Iâm already here, so Denise said I should just come along on the cruise without her.â She gave her little shrug again and took a sip of iced tea. âYour first cruise too?â
âIâm not really a member of the social group, actually. I went on a nature hike with them one time and ended up on Deniseâs list. So now she sends me emails every time she has some big event. She was kind of persistent this time. I think they needed to sign up a certain number of people in order to get a discount or something.â
Molly nodded and stabbed a crouton. âWell, it is a cruise. It should be fun. And itâll be nice not to have to keep tabs on Mrs. Pendergast all the time. Thereâs gambling, you know. When we get far enough out to sea.â
âYou gamble?â
âOf course. Poker, black jack. Machines mostly, but sometimes at the tables. I have a system. Itâs a lot of fun.â
After lunch I asked my way up to the Bursarâs office. Molly came along to make sure that everything worked out. The Bursar looked me up in his computer. Apparently, when Mrs. Pendergast had cancelled, theyâd looked to fill the vacancy with someone from our same group. I was the only one in a single, so they moved me in to fill her spot and gave my room to someone else. He double checked, but there werenât any other singles available. He apologized for the inconvenience and gave me my key card.
I was flabbergasted.
âWell,â said Molly, âwe might as well go check it out at least.â
We found our way down to the deck where the cabin was located. The room itself was not much bigger than a walk-in closet. A chair, a little night stand, a mirror on the bathroom door, a bed against the wall. That was it. We looked at each other.
âKind of smaller than I would have thought,â I said.
âYeah,â she agreed.
I corralled a passing steward.
âUm, we were supposed to be getting a double room?â I showed him the printout.
âYes, yes,â he said in his helpful foreign accent. âVery nice double cabin.â
âBut thereâs only one bed.â I said.
âDouble bed,â he explained. Then he gestured toward the porthole on the wall. âOcean view!â He smiled, happy to have been of service, and went on about his way.
Molly didnât look altogether convinced.
I sighed. âLet me go talk to the Bursar again,
But she was sizing things up. Sunshine was streaming in through the porthole. Our two suitcases had been placed in a little niche beside the bathroom door, side by side.
"All the other rooms are probably just as small,â she said. âOn this level anyway. And they seem to have already given your other room away.â She looked at me. âDo you snore?â
It wasnât a question I was expecting. âI donât think so. No oneâs ever complained.â
âWell, Mrs. Pendergast does, apparently. Thatâs the one thing Iâve been dreading the most.â She looked back at the room. âI guess this is just what double rooms are like on cruise ships. Maybe itâs not so bad. At least you donât snore. Weâre kind of on an adventure anyway. Maybe we should just try and make the best of it.â
She made it sound as if sharing a room with a complete stranger of the opposite sex was no bigger a deal than sharing a table with him at lunch. She sat down on the edge of the bed and picked up the schedule of the dayâs activities as if the issue had already been decided.
âShuffleboard lessons at three o'clock,â she noted. âBingo at four thirty.â
I sat down on the chair. So instead of getting a room of my own I was going to have to share this one? Surely there must be some other alternative. What if, Â what if I asked Denise to ask Ciara to move in here with Molly and let me bunk with Jack? Ugh! I cringed at the thought.
âA magic show tonight in the forward theatre.â Molly announced; reading more literature.
I looked around. How would it even work? The room was so tiny. There was only the one bed.
Molly was studying a map of the ship. âWhat do you think we should do first?â Sheâd not only accepted the fact that weâd be rooming together, she was ready to head out and start exploring.
âUm, Â why donât you just go ahead on your own? Iâve still got a couple things I need to take care of first.â
I couldnât tell if she was a bit hurt that I didnât want to join her. But she shrugged it off. âWell, OK. Then I guess we can just meet back up here later.â
I didnât really have anything I needed to take care of, I just wanted a little time to sort things out. I was pretty bummed that theyâd given away my single. And I wasnât sure how I felt about Mollyâs matter-of-fact-ness. Was she really so used to sharing rooms with random guys?
Still, if I did have to share a room with someone, Molly was probably no more objectionable than Jack or Mrs. Pendergast. She was more my age. She was just out of college and I had a few years on her. She seemed pretty easy going. If weâd been thrown together as partners at a workshop breakout session, I wouldnât have objected.
But sharing insights at a breakout session wasnât exactly the same as sharing a cabin on a cruise ship. Iâd had to share rooms with strangers before, but theyâd always been guys. What you did was you put on your blinders, you put up your shields, you went about your business, you let them go about theirs. You tried to be polite. At least thatâs the way it worked with guys. Did it work that way with girls too?
I guess Iâd find out.
The ship must have cast off soon after we came on board, but so smoothly that we hadnât even noticed. By the time I found my way up on deck weâd already cleared the harbor and were quite a ways out from land. I stood at the railing and watched the waves roll by. I wondered whether I might get seasick, but the deck was as firm and steady as any sidewalk on the mainland.
The ship turned out to be a whole little city unto itself. There was a miniature golf course at one end and a climbing wall at the other. The top deck held two full-sized swimming pools, each already surrounded by sun bathers glistening in cocoa butter. The lower decks held lounges and theaters and eateries and nightclubs. There were shops and kiosks on every level; a sports bar, a wine bar, two piano bars, a margarita bar (âHi, Jack! Hi, Ciara!â); and any number of different ways to get from any one place to any other: by stairs, by elevator, by main passageway, by side passageway.
Later in the afternoon I sat down at a little coffee shop toward the stern of the ship and nursed a cup of lapsang souchong. Seagulls were gliding along in our tailwind. Iâd been making good progress on a couple algorithms at work, and I went over some of the key steps in my mind. It was nice being out of the cubicle for a change, sitting in the sunshine, daydreaming instead of coding, watching the seagulls hover and veer.
My thoughts eventually wandered back to my room situation. I still couldnât understand why Molly was being so agreeable about sharing the cabin. It dawned on me that maybe she didnât think she had any other choice. Maybe she thought that since she was only here as Mrs. Pendergastâs guest, she had to do whatever Denise asked.
And so maybe she wasnât really all that used to sharing rooms with random guys either. Maybe she was just doing what she thought was expected. A fellow shipmate, a sort-of member of the same social group she was sort of a member of, needed a place to bunk. She had an empty spot. Didnât shipboard etiquette kind of dictate that she offer to share? But then, by the same token, what did shipboard etiquette expect of me?
I finished my tea and ambled back toward the front of the ship. A raucous game of volleyball was taking place in one of the pools. Someone called my name.
âAre you going back to the room? I forgot my card.â
It was Molly. She gave her little shrug. She was wearing a bright yellow bikini. It was fairly conservative, the kind she could wear to the gym, but it called your attention to her shapely legs and her slender tummy. We made our way down the labyrinth of passageways toward our lower deck. The people we passed would have naturally assumed that we were together.
âI figured out about dinner,â she said. âEverybody has an assigned time and an assigned table. Ours is in about an hour. We can go together if you want.â
After a couple of wrong turns we finally found our corridor and our little room. It hadnât gotten any bigger in the time weâd been away. But there was a fresh bath towel sitting on the bed, folded into a sort of soft-origami swan.
âLook how cute,â Molly said. âThe housekeepers must have been in.â
She put her things on the nightstand and fiddled in her suitcase for some clothes. âIâm just going to take a quick shower first.â She went into the bathroom, taking the swan along with her. I sat on the foot of the bed and took a look at the schedule. The walls were thin enough that I could hear the water splashing.
She came out wrapped in the towel. âItâs too cramped to get dressed in there,â she said, trying to sound matter-of-fact. She looked around the room, a bit awkwardly.
So this was one of the guys-and-girls-sharing-a-cabin rules that I wasnât really familiar with. What was I supposed to do while she got dressed? Step into the bathroom to give her some privacy? Or just ignore her, the way I would if I was sharing the room with a guy?
She wasnât completely sure how to play it either. She turned to face the mirror, but that only put her sideways to me. So she turned all the way around, facing the outer door. She tried to give the impression that changing clothes in front of a cabin mate wasnât that big a deal. So I tried to follow her lead.
I didnât stare, and she had her back to me, but it was hard not to notice what she was doing. She started by putting on her bra, but as she was pulling it up, her towel slipped, revealing the two round, pretty cheeks of her bottom. She quickly pulled the towel back into place, and I quickly forced my eyes back to the schedule. So it was only with my peripheral vision that I was able to see her stepping into her panties and skirt and buttoning up her blouse.
Finally she sat on the chair to fasten her sandals. Our eyes met again. She sighed, then admitted. âI work in a clinic. I often have to help clients get over themselves, when they have to disrobe for an exam, in front of someone they don t know. I think I have better empathy, now. Oh, Dinner is supposed to be smart casual.â she remarked.
I took that to mean that my polo shirt didnât quite cut it. Iâd brought a couple button-down shirts, and so I went over and got one from my suitcase. She nodded approvingly and turned to the mirror, fiddling with her hair. I took off my polo shirt and put on the button one.
The dining room was immense, with big round tables like in a reception hall. Molly and I were assigned to a table with some of the other people from our group. I let Molly sit next to Ciara. There was nobody on my other side, which was fine with me. Molly and Ciara found some girl stuff to talk about. The general conversation at the table seemed to be about motorcycles. Denise stopped by to see how everyone was doing.
Molly had the chicken and I had the fish. We resisted the hard liquor, but we both had a glass of wine with our meal. Valentin, our engaging Bulgarian waiter, brought us the chit. We had both just assumed that wine was included in the meal, but he explained that it would be added to our room bill.
âWill they charge it to Mrs. Pendergast?â Molly whispered, afraid they might.
âWeâll figure it out,â I whispered back, signing for both of us.
The magic show didnât start until eight o'clock, so after dinner Molly suggested we just wander around. She showed me the little art gallery sheâd discovered on deck six where it met the central atrium. Photographs of interesting doorways on old, rustic buildings. Just past the art gallery was a little gift shop. We went in, and Molly looked at the jewelry counter. She asked the lady to bring out a necklace that caught her eye. I leafed through the post cards, but I didnât really have anyone to send one to.
We still had forty-five minutes until the show, so I took Molly up to the miniature golf course. We didnât bother keeping score. I made a couple lucky shots. Then, on the next-to-the-last hole, Mollyâs shot went wild and bounced onto the next green over. It ricocheted off a bumper and coasted down, curving gently, right into the cup. A perfect hole in one into the wrong hole!
âWhoa!â I said. âRemind me never to play you for money.â
She raised her putter and blew on the end as if it were a smoking rifle barrel. âYou should see me at pinball.â
The mag
I reached for my wifeâs hips, making her jump slightly as she felt my big firm hands on her. She stiffened, almost as if she were going to refuse me, and then her stiffness faded as Linda rubbed my head around her lips a little harder, working it between her lips and into the entrance of her depths. My wife wiggled her hips side to side, much like she used to when she was inviting me to fuck her hot hole. I pushed toward her, forcing my engorged head slowly into her, spreading her hot wet vagina as I slipped ever so slowly into her.
âOh, fuck yes.â Nancy moaned as I pushed my way deeper into her. âThatâs it honey. Fuck me. Make me come around your fat cock!â She lowered her head to Lindaâs cunt again and I heard her muffled moan as I started to stroke slowly in and out of her.
Every stroke brought my balls across Lindaâs face, slapping her eyebrows slightly. In and out I started to thrust, my cock stroking its full length in and out of her. Linda wrapped her left hand around my ass cheek and  hooked her other hand around Nancyâs thigh. Linda was now conducting the symphony movement of our love anthem. Lindaâs middle finger pressed my anus tightly and eventually entered just inside my sphincter.
I felt Nancyâs already excited cunt start to spasm when Iâd barely started stroking, Linda having apparently gotten her already very close to climax. I knew I was still quite a ways from my own climax as I held her hips and kept thrusting, pushing in and out so that my cock teased her insides from the entrance all the way to the end of her tunnel. Nancy always said that my thick shaft felt so much bigger when I fucked her from behind. I wanted her to enjoy it. I wanted her to feel my cock making her climax. I wanted her to remember how good it felt that first time, that time laying on the picnic table, feeling a cock slide into her for the first time. I wanted her to enjoy it like she did then, coming so hard to my stroking cock that her body surprised both of us and pumped her juices out all over my stomach and crotch. I wanted her to climax that hard again.
âOh fuck!â she squeaked as she pulled her face from Lindaâs cunt. âOh fuck me, lover. God you feel so good. Come for me. Fill me up with your cum. Oh God! Yes! Thatâs it. Fuck me!â She hadnât been all that vocal for years, and hearing her talk like a vulgar whore, begging me to fuck and fill her; pushed all the right buttons at the right time. While my mind was still imagining that it was that first time again, feeling her for the first time, I held her hips and drove harder into her, rocking the entire bed as I pumped in and out of her with abandon.
My body raced toward climax as I thrust myself deep into my wife, a feeling of elation and desire all mixed together running through my body. I was so close, I wanted to come, I wanted to fill her cunt with my cum, I wanted her to keep climaxing as long as I could make her. I kept thrusting, trying to keep holding her climax at its peak as long as I could. I felt a hand on my ass, moving with me, coaxing me harder into my wife.
I looked down past my thrusting cock at Lindaâs face, grinning up at me, waiting, coaxing. In a moment of clear realization I knew what she wanted.
âOh Fuck!â I grunted loudly as my body spasmed. I could feel my cock pumping shot after shot of cum into my wifeâs spasming cunt, filling her, feeling her climax still squeezing and milking me, like I hadnât felt for oh so many years. I stood there, my knees leaning against the mattress, panting, listening to my wife moan and pant herself, my cum still leaking into her as my cock twitched occasionally.
âOh God, yes. So good.â She moaned softly, laying her head between Lindaâs legs again, but not to lick her any longer. Linda released her hold on my ass and instead hooked her index finger around the base of my cock. She coaxed me back, backing me out of my wife slowly. My now softening tallywhacker slipped from Nancyâs reddened, swollen cunt lips, and dropped onto Lindaâs face.
Linda tiled her head back and opened her mouth. I slid inside Lindaâs waiting mouth and she sucked my shrinking cock for only a few seconds before gently pushing me further back. I knew why, though I was surprised that sheâd want to.
I stood, my cock almost dripping the remaining cum in Lindaâs face, holding my wifeâs ass cheeks for balance. I watched Linda lick the cum oozing from my wifeâs gaping cunt, my white cream leaking from her and dripping down off her twat lips into Lindaâs mouth.
âTastes just like that cookie.â Linda moaned softly. âI swear that was cum flavored icing.â
âI kinda thought it tasted like Nancyâs cunt.â I panted as I moved onto the bed and flopped onto my back, momentarily exhausted.
I lay there, trying to catch my breath, listening to Linda lick my wife, sending occasional shudders through her body. Nancy finally had all she could take and shifted off Linda and over onto me, laying down on me. She lay flat on me, her tits smashed to my chest, her face inches from mine. Without a word she lowered her lips to mine and kissed me. Hesitantly at first, and then with growing urgency. She held my face and kissed and sucked my lips, almost as if she were afraid I was going to not be there.
Linda rolled onto her side, facing away from us, then resumed her own masterbations, stroking her cunt with two fingers, while her other hand fondled her aroused nipples. Linda was a moaner.
Finally, after what had to be at least five minutes, both Nancy and I panting breathlessly, she softened and then stopped her kisses. âIâm sorry love.â She whispered into my ear as she laid her cheek beside mine.
âFor what?â I whispered back.
âFor not realizing what I was doing to you. For almost losing you. I never meant for it to happen. I should have known. I should have heard you. You said it, I know you did. Even Linda heard you. But I was too busy with my own feelings that I didnât listen to you. I donât want to lose you. I donât want you to have to find it someplace else. I donât want you to walk out of my life. I donât want anyone but you, but I have to, I need to, I, I.â
âShush.â I whispered, pressing her chest into me, holding her face next to mine. âI donât want to lose you either. Youâre the love of my life. Why would I leave you?â
âBecause I forgot. I forgot how it was. I laid here, crying, feeling sorry for myself that Linda could coax you into sex so easily. I thought that you didnât care anymore or want me anymore. But she told me. She said sheâs seen me reject your advances too many times, that you had to think that I didnât want you anymore. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Itâs just, Itâs. I donât know how to explain. But I was wrong. I should have listened. I should have seen the signs. Please donât leave me.â She practically begged me before she started crying, her tears running down her face and my cheek as well, where we were pressed together.
âIâm not leaving. Shish. Iâm still here,â I whispered back, stroking her back and ass.
âPromise?â
âOh lover. You know I canât live without you.â
âI used to think that. I used to think that I never had to worry. I used to think you were mine forever, and, well, I watched you pleasuring her, right there, right in front of me, right in our own kitchen. I, I was scared. I was afraid that I was going to lose you. I was mad. I was mad at you, I was mad at Linda.â
âI was actually mad at myself. Mostly now at myself. You did what I pushed you to. You did it because I ignore you. I donât do what we used to do.â
âI donât understand. What we used to do?â
âWhen we were first together. I worked so hard to give you everything you desired. I wanted you to be happy. I wanted you to love me. I wanted you to want me, to desire to be with me. I knew that sexual contentment was a big part of that. I knew that if I didnât make you feel happy that way, that thereâd be no chance of lasting love. Guys need that. They need sex. They need it to feel complete. I forgot that. I forgot because I had your love and I forgot that I needed to return it the way you needed it, not the way I felt like giving it. My empathy failed.â
"I donât understand, Nancy. When we were first together, you were playful, you loved doing all those things, all those ways, all those places. You didnât like it? You were just, what, faking enjoying it?â I asked with concern and no small amount of hurt welling up in my heart. Had our whole relationship been based on a lie?
She rolled off of me, onto her back, next to me. âI didnât not enjoy it, but I wouldnât have chosen to do it by myself if you hadnât asked me to.â
âThen why didnât you say no?â I rolled on my side to look at her face.
âI never wanted to say no. I thought it was what was expected. That guys had sex that way. I wanted to be wanted, so I focused on meeting your desires. But I lost that, over the years.â
âIâm confused. You had to know not all guys did all that. I mean, I loved what we did. I loved the variety and the newness of every time we did it someplace different, or in a different way, or whatever. But if you didnât want to, you had to know it wasnât required.â
âWasnât it? What has been your complaint for the last twenty years? That we never do anything like that anymore. Kinda sounds required to me.â
I rolled facing Nancy; Linda still in her own world, at the foot of the big bed. Nancy rolled onto her side and rested her head so our noses nearly touched, stroking her fingers on my chest. âIâd have never made you do anything you didnât want to. Not if I knew. Now youâre telling me everything that we did was faked?â
âNot faked. Just not, always my choice.â She whispered. âThe guy I was with, before you. He was, well, he didnât believe in sex before marriage, so we didnât. Not at all. He never even tried to take my bra off or pull down my pants or anything. So, when I started dating you, I did what you wanted, just like I did what he wanted.â
âWhy did you leave him?â
âAfter two years, I needed more. I needed that physical relationship. I wanted intimacy, and he didnât seem any closer to asking me to marry him than when we started dating. So, I moved on, or at least I was planning on it. The day you spilled coke all over me? I was out with my best friends, they were trying to convince me that it was time to move on and find someone different. Someone that could make me feel completely different than Jerry did.â
âAnd me dumping a whole cup of soda pop down your shirt was definitely different.â
âIt wasnât that. It was how incredibly cute you were, trying to apologize. Three times you almost rubbed your hand down my boobs to wipe the soda that was soaking in, off. I suddenly wanted to feel your hands on me. I wanted to see what it felt like to be physically loved.â
â If you hadnât asked me to get undressed for you in that park that one night, there wouldnât be another date. I wasnât going to go through that again. I could tell you were nervous. I was too. But I wanted to feel your hands on me, and once I did, I didnât want to stop. I wanted you to touch me and stroke me and make love to me as many times as you wanted. When I realized you liked being teased, liked seeing me in sexy little things, liked it when I played with you in public places, liked it when I let you play with me in those places, well, those are the things I did. I didnât not like them, but if I had been choosing, I wouldnât have done a lot of them. Doctor Ruth said a woman can only keep a man if she keeps him satisfied. So I was committed to keeping you satisfied. At least I used toâ Nancy was starting to cry again.
âAfter the girls were born, you kinda stopped wanting sex. Why? What did I do wrong?â I wanted to know.
âYou did nothing wrong. I just didnât feel like I could do those kinds of things anymore. I didnât want the girls to get the idea that doing that kind of thing was how you got a man. I know. Thatâs how I got you. But after a few years I just stopped trying to please you that way. I convinced myself you didnât seem to need it any more, that you knew how I loved you, even if I didnât show it physically. I forgot that was how you felt loved. I forgot that all the things that you did that made me feel loved, werenât the things that made you feel loved. Linda reminded me of that. Seeing you kneeling in front of her, licking her, teasing her cunt, making her climax. It made me realize that Iâd messed up. Iâd failed to do what a wife should be doing, making her man feel loved and cared for. I suddenly realized that Linda had so easily taken over what had been only mine for so long. Linda hasnât had a man for years, but she wishes that she did.â
âIf thatâs true, why the hell were you two women having sex?â
âThatâs easy.â Linda said from where she was still laying, now listening to us. âWe wanted to. While we were talking we had an overwhelming urge to kiss, which led to touching, which lead to, well you know.â Then Linda added; âYouâre the one with the cookie, Mike. Like the serpent in Eden, you seduced both of us with one bite of that treat.â
âI wouldnât have thought you were into girl stuff.â I said softly to my wife.
âI havenât, well, before today, I never did. I just couldnât help myself. I wanted to kiss her. I wanted to feel her lips on me, on my nipples, on my cunny lips. I wanted to feel her making love to me. I donât know why, but I wanted it so bad.â
âJust like I needed to have your cock in my mouth.â Linda interjected. âJust like I want your cock in me so bad right now. I want to feel you pumping it into me until you fill me with your cum.â Linda said, rolling over. âSo how about it? Wanna let me ride you until we both come?â
âI think I better save it for Nancy,â I answered her, getting a squeeze from Nancy in appreciation.
âWell, if youâre not going to fuck me, I have a dildo at home thatâs just begging to feel my hot cunt around it.â Linda said as she stood up. âYou know, I might not even bother to get dressed. Just put my shoes on and run home naked and get it. Wanna watch me? Wanna see me pumping it in and out of myself?â
âItâs sorta chilly out.â I said, avoiding the answer she wanted to hear.
She grinned. âGood. Itâll make my nipples nice and hard. You sure you donât want to come watch me?â
âI better not.â I answered quietly. She shrugged and got up. A few moments later we heard the back door open and close, leaving us alone in the house. âWhat now?â
âI donât know. I have an urge to fuck you under the Christmas tree.â Nancy winked
âSo why donât we?â I encouraged her fantasy.
âIs that what you want?â Nancy giggled.
âThatâs the wrong question. The question you should ask, is that what We want?â
âRight now, I think it is.â She whispered.
âOkay. I donât know if my cock is up to a third round, but Iâm game to try.â
âOh honey, I think I can handle that. You go out there and lay down on the carpet and Iâll be out in a few minutes, and I guarantee that Iâll get you hard.â She said with a soft giggle.
I nodded and got off the bed. I didnât know what she had in mind, but I was willing to let her try whatever she wanted. I grabbed a pillow off the sofa and lay down on the carpet to wait.
âIâm back!â Linda said as she walked in through the garage door again, this time holding a large purple translucent cock. âOh. Waiting for me?â She asked, stepping over to me and squatting down over me. She rolled onto her knees and slid her wet cunt along my flaccid cock. âIâm not even going to need âCarlosâ, am I?â she asked setting the dildo aside.
âLinda. Iâm waiting for Nancy. I donât think sheâs going to want to see you on my lap. Please donât make me choose!â
She frowned. âI wonât, but I can keep it warm, canât I?â
I rolled my eyes. âIf you promise to get right off when Nancy comes out.â
âI do.â She answered with a wicked little grin. She began to rock her hips, grinding herself against my cock. She reached for
