The Q&A.
"My goodness, boy, what the heck did we just do?"
I was a bit nonplussed at the emotional ending, but, I repaired quickly and started right on in:
"Why did you make me go back downstairs, youngster?" Then two more before she could get a word in edgewise:
"Did you do it again with him?"
"Did you talk about me?"
And one more query that I didn't ask, yet. "Do you think we should have him out to the house this weekend?"
I finally ran out of energy and just fell silent like a wind up toy expiring. Now my voice, last in the line of succession had broke an octave.
"Cully, don't get mad, darling. Everything is okay, calm down. You really need to release. I know it's ridiculous but perhaps we should stop at that Texaco station at the cutoff, you go in and beat off real quick. I'll stay in the car."
It wasn't a half bad idea. I was near out of mind, but I threw it back in her face. I had the con and I knew it.
"I'm not jacking off in a strange service station bathroom!"
Though I had beat off in there from time-to-time when I was waiting on her to get off her job. She got off an hour after I got off. Sometimes I'd loiter the dirty movie and book store, with attendant XXX arcade, and invariably would end up at that Texaco. But that was different. Not tonight, no way, Jose'. Uh, uh. Once I blew my nut that'd be it. I'd lose the con, no longer would I be "Charlie Potata's" like Tony Curtis -The Defiant Ones- "I'd be Mashed Potata's like the aforementioned Curtis, same movie.
I went anew.
"Did you do it again, Girl. Tell me, now."
"Of course we did it again, Cul. Yes."
"Oh-my-God." Like somebody had died, or, worse, lost money.
I was defeated. "Did you suck on it?"
"A little, yes."
"Oh-my-God."
"Cully, the light...it's turning reeeeeeeeeed! Stop!"
I screeched to a halt.
"Cully, let's just wait till we get home and we can sit down and calmly discuss this. I don't want to get into an car accident."
"My ass. I want to know what went on up there for over an hour."
"Cully, he needed me, he needed us. Without you there'd a been no me. Cully, try and understand, please."
"But why did I have to be thrown out like that? Just answer that I'll be quiet the rest of the way." Ha!
"Cully, you wanted to be thrown out. You've stated that on many occasions when we fantasize together. You wanted to be banned from the action. Tell the truth. Cully, I'm calling your name: Cully."
I was completely undone.
I brazened it out in the finest traditions: "That's no excuse, and not tonight, perhaps the next time there is a such an occasion, but not tonight. I didn't know what to do. I felt forsaken."
I sloughed forward. "Did you make arrangements with him for another time without me?"
"Cully, no. This was a one time event, honey-bun. We both felt it, at least I did when you picked me up. You were lit up by the long weekend, you were excited I could tell. I caught your spark and it got me going. When I wandered away from you in the aisles I wanted to see him, pursue him, for us, at least see if it was even possible. I felt confident that everything was really going to work out. I could feel the heat. But I didn't see him anywhere, so, I just started looking at the books. He showed up a few minutes later, said "Hi, Girl." from behind me and it developed from there."
"How, in the name of God did you approach him about, well you know? I need to hear the whole rigmarole."
"Fine, slow down, be careful and I'll tell it. Agreed?"
"Yes."
"I wasted no time. I didn't want you to wander over and flub our collective dub. I asked what the second floor was like."
"Oh-my-God."
"He said it was a lot of antiques that I might like to see and that he could show me."
I groaned.
"I couldn't go without him, Clint. He would like to see too."
"He wouldn't mind, seriously, Girl? I don't want to cause trouble, I can't afford any trouble. It'd be okay?"
"Yeah, definitely. He'd just like to see. Would that be okay with you, Clint? No trouble, he'll be quiet and so still. I promise."
I moaned.
"We were face to face, Cully, a foot apart. I could feel his power, I know that sounds melodramatic, but I was ready. I knew you were and now he was. I wanted him, and I wanted you to watch and see it."
"Keep going. I'm going to cut over to 24th Street, we'll stop at the stockyards, hey?"
"Sure, Cul."
I made the turn, passed the aforementioned Texaco and kept going.
"Sure, that'd be fine." He said. "I'm off anyhow. I was on my way out when I spotted you here, Girl, you and him. My God, you're beautiful. Is that okay, I don't..."
"He just trailed off, Cully. He was so adorable and so nervous."
"Weren't you?"
"No, for some reason I was totally fine. And you were too when you walked up on us. I could tell you were ready. Right?"
"You know something, you're right. Isn't that strange? We didn't talk about it on the drive over. And I wasn't even thinking about it. I just wanted to start our weekend, Girl. Look what happened." I quickly veered off: "Did he try to kiss you before I came over?"
"No, nothing untoward. I thanked him for the compliment, you showed up shortly thereafter and you know the rest."
I pushed on: "Did it hurt?"
"No, it felt really good...and easy. He wasn't as thick as you, Cully, and he was shorter. I took it all. I could feel our pubes meshing together. I never feel yours, you're too long. You'd hurt your little girl."
I'd bottomed out a couple times. Once I felt the tip of the IUD I knew that was the limit and never hit bottom again.
"Tell me about the second time, please Girl, I need to hear it."
"He was ready almost at once. I asked if we could move to the couch and we did. I asked if I could be on top, and I was."
"Damn, Girl, you never call the action when we're together."
"I know, but I could tell he wanted me to be, you know the dominant one the second time. He softened, Cully, once you went back downstairs. He relaxed and so I figured I could take control and we'd both enjoy it that way."
"He didn't touch your, your you know what, did he?"
"My butt? No, just grazed it just a tad with his fingertips."
"On purpose?"
"I think so." She giggled.
"GD, Girl. That's sacred ground!"
Now, she laughed.
"Cully, don't grudge it, he was so in need of kind people. You and I, Mick were the first people who have accepted him. It was important. Maybe God meant us to be there tonight like that. Sure."
I didn't want a sermon from her, she'd get like that if I didn't put a cork in it.
"Did you kiss him some more?"
"A lot. He was a good kisser, C, don't get mad now."
"Just don't say how we've known each other since we were small."
"Little, since we were little, Cully, not small." Her laughter was welcome. Everything was going to be alright.
"French?"
"Contraire. Deep, soul kisses, Cully. Then I reached back, hefted his sack, squeezed it has hard as I dared, shafted his and sat on it, till I was on his stomach."
"Look, Clinton, look I said to him, you're buried in Girl."
"He liked me, Cully. He said you were the more fortunate man he'd ever known."
I was.
"We quit kissing, I stayed straight up, you know and ground on it for a bit. He suckled my breasts, I held his head gently and told him how much I enjoyed being in his arms. I reached back several time and hefted that sack so I could remember how it felt. I knew you'd ask me about it. It was huge, boy. My goodness and even after his first release there was still a lot of juice in there for the second orgasm. I kind of had a notion that he was having just a bit of a problem getting to the end, so I tightened my snatch and locked eyes with him. And that was the beginning of the end. I twisted it one way, then back the other, clamped down, and told him I needed what he had in that sack, and I wasn't leaving the 2nd floor without it. As he came I covered his mouth with mine and felt his injection."
I didn't know what to say.
"Cully, I thought he was going to cry. He was quiet and kind of hid his face against me. I cuddled him, Cul, and helped him hide and he suckled my breasts for a little while, like you do sometimes, remember?"
When I'd get emotional about her, about us. I remembered. I knew.
"You guys, huh, Cully-boy."
---------
The stockyards.
"Can we stop, Girl?" We were at the stockyards. Sometimes we'd stop and pet the cows. They were right off 24th street in the corrals, readying for the slaughter houses beyond.
"Sure, Cully. I know how you like it."
The smell was not good, but, it was an honest scent and one I shall always remember.
She came for me then, on the street. "Come here, you." We hugged tightly, she smelled of the Karate, Hai style, but I didn't care. She was warm and pliable and so soft. I separated her from the earth just an inch, maybe 3, then set her quietly back upon it.
"I love you, boy."
I hid my face against the soft cotton of the blue dress and squeezed tighter.
-The End-
Afterword:
Neither of us visited the Antiquarian for a over a month. I finally stopped in one afternoon during the hour I wait for Girl to get off work. Mick informed me that Clint had broken parole a couple weeks after we'd last been there, that night.
"His parole officer found him with a loaded .38 Smith & Wesson at the half way house. He's back in Lincoln."
I dreaded having to tell Girl that, but I did so that evening when we arrived home. She was very upset, believing perhaps that we should have not quit going there. It wasn't a conscious decision, for neither of us brought it up, but her appraisal did bring about some guilt feelings for us both. She asked if it would be alright if she wrote him and I heartily agreed. Three private letters were sent, there was no reply to them.
Once the Internet came to be I ran Clint X thru various search programs, but have never drawn a hit. We speak of him still; of our adventure, what could have gone wrong and what went right that night.
