Yes, Annie, that is still the theme of my post. Facts are that the
situation IS getting worse, not just better reported, and if something
positive is not done to stop the trend, it won't heal itself. Just the fact
that there are such courses available does not insure that those who need
them the most will attend. Until some better alternative is suggested that
will break this vicious cycle, I'll have to stand for yet one more control
over people's lives. Either that, or watch more of the same. From here, I
don't see any other viable choice.

Date: 06/20/91 Time: 05:22:39
To answer yor question on what should be cut to make room for compulsory
parenting classes, I would have to get hold of a H.S. cirriculum. It's been
quite some time since I've seen one. A lot of Phys. Ed. could be done away
with. If the best we can produce out of our next generation is a bunch of
wanna be ball players, we're going to be a pretty poor nation. Compulsory
P.E., for those who have little or no interest in such activity, is a total
waste. Always has been. Always will be. Some social studies courses could
stand another hard look. Local government courses could be made electives
instead of prerequisites to graduation, as they are now. I believe that at
least one year of foreign language is still a requirement. Unless a student
has use for sucha a thing, why? If you don'T use a language fairly
regularly, you lose it. What's the point? There's a suggestion or two, and
if I got hold of a current cirriculum, I'm sure some more would stand out as
likely candidates for the chopping block.

The difference between us on this issue, Bill, is that I'm doing my hard
thinking in a positive vein, and you're dong yours in a negative vein.
If such a course was made to be a required subject, all students (read that
prospective parents) would be reached. While the old adage still holds that
you can lead a horse to water but can't make him drink still holds true,
there's of course no guarantee that the course would "do what they're
supposed to do" in every case. Such a procedure would, however, place the
knowledge into many minds that would not receive it otherwise. While there
is no one simple cureall to the problem, education is still the most viable
approach that I can think of. At least it is an approach, which is more than
I have seen you or Ann come up with. Instead of criticizing my suggestions,
whhy not make a few positive ones of your own? Blaming the last generation
is not really valid, since they weren't educated either. Ignorance begets
ignorance, unless the cycle is broken.

Date: 06/20/91 Time: 05:36:43
Blocking would be an option with the onset of caller ID. According to the
U.S.West proposal, if caller ID was approved by the Corp. Com., all a caller
would have to do would be to dial 2 numbers (76 comes to mind, but I'm not
sure of that), and his number would be blocked from the caller ID box of the
number called.
As to self protection through unlisted numbers, it's largely a farce. The
obvious exception of course would be public figures, etc. who need some
privacy. I have had an unlisted number for years, mainly to get away from
phone solicitors who invade my privacy. That is no longer worth the trouble,
since most boiler rooms now use digital dialing, and I get harrassed anyway.

You mean you are advocationg they teach child care in High School?? That is
the most ridiculous thing I ever heard of. That's like teaching kids cooking
and expecting them to be Culinary cuisine artists when they get out!
When I had my first child, I had both my mother and my mother-in-law telling
me what to do. I did it my way in the end with a little of their help. NO
ONE can tell you how to raise a child! I was raised with spankings - my kids
were raised with spankings. We grew up just fine. I've seen other kids that
a spanking would not do a bit of good. I've seen kids that were outright
spoiled and they grew up fine too! I've also seen parents that were from
well-to-do families - educated - good career jobs and they ABUSED their
children! I've seen poor, real poor families with mucho kids and they didn't
abuse them. I say you can't pin point this thing, so why must every child
baring aged people have to go to school? You actually don't know how you are
going to act - be - until the first time a baby cries all night or you
change a dirty diaper for the upteenth time and your nerves are frayed, or
the child has eternal Colic or diarrhea or vomiting spells. The list is
long and this is when they are babies.
Also, what is abuse?? We all know that beating, burning or choking a child
is abuse, but what of spankings in general or not letting a kid watch TV for
a week as punishment or making them go to bed without dinner?? I know some
people that would consider all of these things abuse! You make blanket
statements but don't think of the conquences of those statements if put to
fact! *>>> ANN O. <<<*

Well, I think I'd replace "should" with "could." PE, insofar as it
encourages an attitude toward healthy living, is a valuable part of learning
how to be on your own. And that's really what we're asking our schools to

Gee. I always thought encouraging careful analysis of issues and arguments

Women immigrants became servants, prostitutes, housewives,
factory workers, and sometimes rebels. Leonora Barry was
born in Ireland and brought to the United States. She got
married, and when her husband died she went to work in a
hosiery mill in upstate New York to support three young
children, earning 65 cents her first week. She joined the
Knights of Labor, which had fifty thousand women members in
192 women's assemblies by 1886. She became "master workman"
of her assembly of 927 women, and was appointed to work for
the Knights as a general investigator, to "go forth and
educate her sister working-women and the public generally as
to their needs and necessities." She described the biggest
problem of women workers: "Through long years of endurance
they have acquired, as a sort of second nature, the habit of
submission and acceptance without question of any terms
offered them, with the pessimistic view of life in which
they see no hope." Her report for the year 1888 showed: 537
requests to help women organize, 100 cities and towns
visited, 1,900 leaflets distributed.
In 1884, women's assemblies of textile workers and
hatmakers went on strike. The following year in New York,
cloak and shirt makers, men and women (holding separate
meetings but acting together), went on strike. The New
York *World* called it "a revolt for bread and butter."
They won higher wages and shorter hours.
That winter in Yonkers, a few women carpet weavers were
fired for joining the Knights, and in the cold of February,
2,500 women walked out and picketed the mill. Only seven
hundred of them were members of the Knights, but all the
strikers soon joined. The police attacked the picket line
and arrested them, but a jury found them not guilty. A
great dinner was held by working people in New York to honor
them, with two thousand delegates from unions all over the
city. The strike lasted six months, and the women won some
of their demands, getting back their jobs, but without
recognition of their union.
What was astonishing in so many of these struggles was not
that the strikers did not win all that they wanted, but
that, against such great odds, they dared to resist, and were
not destroyed.
Perhaps it was the recognition that day-to-day combat was
not enough, that fundamental change was needed, which
stimulated the growth of revolutionary movements at this
time. The Socialist Labor part, formed in 1877, was tiny,
and torn by internal arguments, but it had some influence in
organizing unions among foreign workers. In New York,
Jewish socialists organized and put out a newspaper. In
Chicago, German revolutionaries, along with native-born
radicals like Albert Parsons, formed Social Revolutionary
clubs. In 1883, an anarchist congress took place in
Pittsburgh. It drew up a manifesto:
... All laws are directed against the working people....
Even the school serves only the purpose of furnishing
the offspring of the wealthy with those qualities
necessary to uphold their class domination. The
children of the poor get scarcely a formal elementary
training, and this, too, is mainly directed to such
branches as tend to producing prejudices, arrogance,
and servility; in short, want of sense. The Church
finally seeks to make complete idiots out of the mass
and to make them forego the paradise on earth by
promising a ficticious heaven. The capitalist press,
on the other hand, takes care of the confusion of
spirits in public life.... The workers can therefore
expect no help from any capitalist party in their
struggle against the existing system. They must
achieve their liberation by their own efforts. As in
former times, a privileged class never surrenders its
tyranny, neither can it be expected that the
capitalists of this age will give up their rulership
without being forced to do it....
The manifesto asked "equal rights for all without distinction
to sex or race." It quoted the *Communist Manifesto*:
"Workmen of all lands, unite! You have nothing to lose but
your chains; you have a world to win!"

Date: 06/21/91 Time: 00:38:44
I did not put the clove oil in the story because I was not sure then or now
exactly what to say about it.
Peter was here for the Saturday night, Sunday morning 'tooth-ache trip'. He
was just leaving near the time I was going into shock. I didn't want to
disturb him with my problem and I did not want to freak him out. I didn't
want to freak anyone out and that is why I made sure that I kept a nice
pleasant smile on my lips during shock. It was a bit difficult at times but
once I decided to see what else there was to explore, Jasmine walked in.
But I, my mind wanted her to walk in because I had thought of her and the
children and knew that my death would not serve them well.
But who am I to know the ultimate truth? I think we all can find out
though. Find a piece here, a piece there. Sometimes they fit, sometimes
they don't. But the ones that fit, over the years, begans to form into
simple numbers like ones and zeros, yes or no.
At this point in my existence I think the ultimate answer may go something
like this, in shortened form:
LIVE, LOVE, ENJOY
Unfortunately, that program line has not crept into the 'gullivers' of the
naked ape in large enough quanties for it to be felt. Also we as a whole
tend to overdue what is commonly called physical death.
Just having that dragging around your neck in great weight is enough to
cause wrong, or bad, decisions to be made. Having any one of these
ambiguous religions around your neck or taking up valuable space in the
brain causes slowness of decision making and confusion about issues. But
most of us know that.
I think that using clove oil directly on the tooth and gums will shock the
hell out of all live nerve endings thus giving one a 30 minute break. But
it may cause damage, I am not yet sure. That dream of pot helped the most.

His hero is Sandy Stern a 56 year old pear-shaped widower. And, according to

The rest of the night passed quietly. I kept looking at Jenny
across the otherwise unoccupied shop but not once did I catch her
looking back at me. I didn't have opportunity to talk to her at
all, so I could do nothing but wonder. Most likely she was trying
to forget it ever happened. I was hardly a woman's dream come
true, as past experiences had told me. Probably just as well.
But just try telling that to the ache in my heart. Or the one
between my legs.
Finally the end-of-shift bell rang. A couple of scraggly,
sorry-looking graveyard people had drifted in to take over our
machines and we could take off. I saw Jenny head over to the
phone and dial a number.
"What's up?" I asked her.
"Calling Dianne to come pick me up. She's got my car tonight."
Dianne was Jenny's roomie. I had met her briefly before, and
Jenny had once mentioned that she worked an early day shift. Even
if she didn't have to get up early tomorrow she surely wouldn't
enjoy dragging ass out of bed at 2 AM to come down here and get
Jenny. Before Jenny dialed the last digit I volunteered, "Hey,
don't wake her up. I'll give you a ride."
Jenny looked at me dubiously, her finger paused over the last
number. "I didn't figure you for the altruistic type. Isn't it
out of your way?" "It's more out of Dianne's way. The poor
Woman isn't a creature of the night like us. She needs her
sleep."
She considered a moment, then put the phone back with the last
number still undialed. "Okay," she smiled, "but straight home and
no sidetrips. I'm bushed." "No prob." I assured her. We walked
out into the refreshingly cool night air, across the parking lot
to my junkmobile. I saw her giving it the wary eye and I flashed
her a grin, "Don't laugh, it's paid for."
I thought I heard her mumble something about it being paid for
in cereal boxtops but I didn't pursue the matter. I turned the
key and the engine moaned, grumbled, and finally coughed to life
asthmatically. I revved the engine a couple times and it roared
impressively, the sound bouncing off the nearby building walls in
staccato bursts. I really needed to put a muffler on the damn thing.
Pulled out of the parking lot and into the street--slowly. I
was thankful that it was dark and Jenny couldn't see my foot
which had the accelerator pressed to the floor. I doubt she would
have cared anyway. She was too busy hanging on for dear life,
trying to avoid being shaken out of her seat. I *really* needed
to put a muffler on this car.
Ten teeth-rattling minutes later we pulled up in front of her
apartment building. All around lights were coming on as people
were getting up to see what the hell was making all that racket.
I found an empty spot along the curb and turned the ignition off
the keep from waking the other half of the neighborhood. In the
deafening silence I turned to face her. "Well, here we are."
She turned in the darkness, "Yep, here we are. Well, thanks for
the, uh, ride..." and opened the door.
I turned the key as she stepped out. I was rewarded by a low
groan and a death rattle from somewhere under the hood. Turning
the key again only got me a faint clicking sound. I hit the wheel
with the palm of my hand. "Shit!" "What's the matter?" Jenny
asked, leaning in the still open door. "Fucking battery died
again!" I groaned. "The alternator belt's broken. I was gonna fix
it tomorrow."
"Oh." She said. "Well, I can go up and get the keys from
Dianne and give you a jump with my car. Hang on..." She
disappeared into the darkness. Several minutes later she returned
with a disgusted look on her face. "I don't fucking believe it.
She's not there! She left a note on the 'fridge saying she left
with some guy for the coast and won't be back 'til tomorrow
afternoon. In my car, damn her! I coulda been stuck at work all
night!"
Actually, I had the idea Jenny was more pissed because her
roomie had a date tonight and she didn't. Which I didn't feel
particularly sympathetic for at the moment, considering my
predicament. "Well, I could thumb it home and have a buddy bring
me back early tomorrow and jump me. That way I can get the car
out of here before it starts lowering property values."
I got out and shut the door and locked it. I started to walk
down the street and I noticed Jenny keeping step with me,
obviously wanting to say something but not knowing quite how. She
said haltingly, "Um, well, since it's kinda my fault that you're
stuck here, I, uh, could put you up for the night." Oh really?
I was tired, but not so tired I didn't pick up on the possible
implications of that statement right away. And even if it didn't
mean what I hoped, it still sounded better than standing out in
the cold for maybe hours trying to get a ride from some soft-
hearted motorist. It wouldn't be the first time I had done that
and I wasn't looking forward to doing it again. "Sure." I said,
hoping I didn't sound too eager, "It's been a long day already.
Thanks." "Thank *you*." she murmured under her breath, and I
wondered what that was supposed to mean as I followed her to her
apartment.
As I walked into Jenny's apartment the first thing that hit me
was the all-permeating odor of catbox. It wasn't too bad, though.
I used to have a cat myself, so I was used to it. The place was
fairly small, with a kitchen in an alcove off to my right and a
short hallway to the left leading to the bedrooms and bathroom.
In front was the living room. There was a couch and a couple of
well-worn chairs. A small TV sat on a none-too-steady stand
opposite the couch and chairs. The place was clean, but
cluttered. Magazines and various articles of female clothing lay
scattered about. Jenny began picking up the latter while mumbling
an apology. I remarked it looked lots better than my place, which
didn't comfort her much since she saw what my car looked like and
could well imagine what my place must look like.
She was probably right on the money.
After a few minutes the place was fairly straight. She plopped
down in a chair, exhausted. I landed on the couch feeling about
the same. Exhausted, but far from sleepy. "Nice place you got
here." I remarked. "Thanks." she smiled tiredly. "It was cheap
and clean." She sat up a little and said, "I really appreciate
the ride. And... I'm kinda glad you're here. I hate staying in
this neighborhood by myself..." She looked like she was going to
say more but stopped and looked away instead.
I started to reply but felt something moving by my feet. I looked down
and saw a little grey ball of fur playing with my shoelaces. Gently I
reached down and picked it up. It was a kitten, about four months
old, all fuzz and golden eyes, which stared into mine. And sharp
claws, which I discovered a second later as he(?) decided he
wanted down NOW. I complied quickly before he could do any
serious damage. He shot across the room in a grey blur and
disappeared under the coffee table.
Jenny was grinning at me. Suddenly she got up and said "Excuse
me, I gotta change and clean up a little. Make yourself at home.
I won't be long." And she disappeared into one of the other
rooms. A moment later I heard a shower running.
I never was very good at making myself at home in somebody
else's home. Not to mention I was worn out from work and a funny
little knot of tension rested in the pit of my stomach. I turned
on the TV and settled back on the couch, trying to relax.
It wasn't long before she was done. I turned to see her and
had to hold back a small gasp of surprise.
She stood in the hallway dressed in just a nightshirt that
just came down to her upper thighs, and apparently nothing else.
The shirt was slit partway up the sides, showing tantalizing
glimpses of skin. Her braless breasts hung firm and high, the
nipples hard, straining against the thin cotton and just begging
to be set free.
Her bare legs were magnificently toned, retaining just a hint of
tan left over from the summer. I noticed she was
smiling at me, nervous but apparently enjoying my attentions.
Then, to my complete shock she yawned and stretched her arms high
above her head. The shirt, which was just barely long enough to
begin with, rode up and I plainly saw the brown fuzz of her pubic
hair. She held the pose for one magnificent second, then dropped
her arms down again, much to my disappointment.
I made no pretense of not looking at her. That would have been
ridiculous. But her eyes met mine and I saw the same fire I saw
earlier in the lunchroom, only this time it wasn't smoldering but
raging almost out of control. With slow deliberation she
walked across the room, swinging her hips just the right amount
to make the slits in the nightshirt part and give excruciating
glimpses of bare skin. She sat down on the couch next to me,
close enough to touch. One gorgeously unclad leg rested on the
couch and across the other leg at about mid-thigh. One arm draped
carelessly over the back. Her eyes met mine and seemed to capture
me completely. My heart went wild as what was going on here
finally sunk in.
Finally she spoke, her voice low and throaty. "Did you mean
what you said earlier?"
Her voice startled me out of the spell I was in. "Um, what did
I say earlier?"
"That you like to give pleasure as much as receive it?" she
said softly.
My heart thudded slowly in my chest. "Sure." I answered just
as softly, "Giving is lots of fun. I never tire of it."
"And..." she asked, uncertainty crossing her face, "and...
would you be willing to give a little to someone who could really
use it?" Now, it would seem to be obvious that I should answer
immediately with a loud and enthusiastic YES! but being in such a
situation is much different from reading or fantasizing. In all
honesty, I was a little frightened. I'd had more than my share of
fantasies about Jenny, but to be presented with a breathing
living willing reality was another thing. You don't treat real
human beings the way you do in fantasies. But then I realized
that she was honestly asking for help, and taking quite a chance
doing so. She was obviously as scared and hopeful as I was. To
turn her down would do great damage to her self-esteem. I
couldn't do that to her.
So, I simply said "Yes."
She gazed into my eyes for a long, long moment, uncertain how
to proceed. Then her lips met mine in a deep, open kiss. She
moved forward until she was laying on top of me while we were
still kissing. Our bodies moved together, rubbing in slow,
sinuous motion.
Her hips pressed down directly on the hardness at
my crotch and ground against it, sending waves of pleasure though
me. Her mouth was still locked with mine, but her breath was
coming in short gasps. Our activity became more frenzied as our
excitement grew, her gasps turning to low moans.
And all at once, the spell broke. She collapsed on top of me,
her head buried in my chest, crying softly.
The dry humping had stimulated me almost to orgasm, but my
erection quickly faded. Unsure of what else to do, I held her and
caressed her hair and rocked her back and forth softly while
making what I hoped were soothing noises.
For a long time we lay like that, until she sniffled and
raised her head. Her eyes were red-rimmed and very vulnerable.
"God, I feel so stupid..." she said in a very quiet voice.
"Shhh." I said, "It's okay. You're not stupid. Things just
went a little too fast, didn't they?"
She nodded, looking away. "I guess so. I've never been like
this in my entire life. I talk a lot, but I'm not really like
that. Tonight I just... I don't know..." she started sniffling
and buried her face in my chest again.
"There, there," I said softly "being lonely and hurting
doesn't make you a bad person at all. It makes you human, which
is no more or less than the rest of us. You're a free adult and I
don't feel you did anything wrong."
I don't think she was convinced but she didn't respond or argue. We lay
together silently until I wondered if she dropped off to sleep. Finally she
raised her head. "These long hours don't help any, either. I think I'll go
to bed." She got off me and stood unsteadily. Her nightshirt stuck to her
body in several interesting places but I found my interest surprisingly
muted by my concern for this girl. I thought I was going to be making this
couch my bed for the night but she held a hand down to me. "Come on." I
got up painfully, and stretched as the circulation returned to my muscles.
How long had I been laying there, anyway? I was afraid to find out. Holding
my hand, she pulled me towards the bedroom. "I know it's kind of forward, in
light of how this evening is going, but I'd really like some nice company
tonight, even just to sleep with. You don't mind, do you?" I really
didn't, and I said so. She kissed me on the cheek. "I've always liked you."
The bedroom was about as orderly as the rest of the apartment, but still
seemed feminine, without being really obvious about it. She had a full size
bed, with the blankets thrown over it in a hurried attempt at neatness. She
had probably done it before leaving for work this morning. Yesterday
morning, actually.
She pulled the covers down and sat on the edge of the bed with a
sigh, springs groaning beneath her. "God, I'm so tired." She
gripped the lower hem of her nightshirt, apparently to pull it
off, and then looked up at me, concerned. "You don't mind, do
you? I don't usually sleep with anything on."
My mouth had suddenly gone dry again as my heart leaped. I shook my head,
trying not to appear too anxious, "No, that's... okay." She pulled the
shirt up, up, revealing inch after agonizing inch more of bare skin, until
she pulled it off over her head and dropped it on the floor beside her. She
stretched her arms, gloriously, wonderfully nude, and sighed "Ah... that
feels so much better." She swung her legs up onto the bed and covered
herself up to her waist. Her breasts were so large and inviting, the
aureoles a bright rosy read, the nipples still partially erect, that my
hands just ached to touch them. Instead I tore my eyes away and walked
around to the other side of the bed, where she smiled and pulled the covers
down for me. I sat down and almost got in before she said "Aren't you at
least going to take your shoes off?" I *had* forgotten that little detail. I
still had my jacket on, even. I stood up and pulled off my jacket and kicked
off my shoes. For a moment I wondered how far I should go, then decided to
hell with it. I pulled my shirt off over my head, then unbuckled my pants.
She was watching me, of course, and there seemed to be a hint of excitement
in her eyes. I took my pants off and saw her eyes lock on the bulge in my
shorts. I was still somewhat erect so the bulge was pronounced, to say the
least. Slowly I pulled them down and my penis, freed from imprisonment,
leaned out from the dark fluff of my pubic hair, almost at it's
maximum size though still pointing downward. There was an audible
intake of breath from her when she saw it.
I sat down and removed my socks and crawled under the covers. In a husky
voice she said, "That was magnificent." as she reached over to turn the
light out. Then she snuggled against me, laying her head on my arm. Her
body was warm, almost burning, and the feel of her bare skin next to mine
and the excitement of knowing there were absolutely no layers of clothing
between us soon had me excited again. My heart wouldn't stop pounding and my
cock stood ramrod stiff and twitching. She moved her arm up and placed her
hand on my chest. "Anybody ever tell you how attractive you are?"
Actually, nobody had, and I said as much and I placed my free hand on her
side and moved it from shoulder to hip in a long, slow caress, back and
forth. After a moment her breathing changed pitch and became quicker,
deeper.
Her hand caressed my chest in a similar manner and she nuzzled
my neck softly. This time there was none of the hurried frenzy of
earlier. Things were progressing smoothly and more naturally,
without a word from either one of us. I became a little more
adventuresome with my explorations, and moved my hand to cup one
soft breast. I moved my hand under it, feeling it's weight, and
my thumb found her nipple, finally bare and fully erect. I rubbed
my thumb across it and a short, breathy moan escaped her lips as
she arched her back.
Her hand moved down, raising to trail her fingers through my
pubic hair before resting lightly on my cock, sending little
twinges and flashes of pleasure through my pelvis. I raised my
hips in response and she grabbed my cock almost tight enough to
hurt. Almost, but not quite. Instead it felt wonderful.
I was now massaging her whole breast and her breath came in
ragged moans and she whole body writhed in slow, sinuous motion.
I moved my face down and extended my tongue, slowly circling it
around her nipple. Then I took it in my mouth, as much as I
could, and sucked it in and out rapidly between my teeth, and her
writhing became more violent, almost pulling away from me. My
free hand, meanwhile, moved around to her back, travelling up and
down exploring freely from her neck to her ass, which I grabbed
hard when I reached it.
Her mouth covered mine and our tongues intertwined
frantically. Her arms wrapped around me almost hard enough to
squeeze the breath out of me and my cock ground hard against her
pubic fuzz. Finally her mouth released mine only long enough to
gasp, "I want you in me now!"
I had roughly the same idea by then myself. She rolled over on
her back, more or less pulling me on top of her. I raised my hips
and she reached down to guide me into the right spot.
With slow deliberateness I thrust my cock into her. She was so wet and
excited that it slid in with no resistance at all, until I was buried in her
as deep as I could go and I felt her fuzz tickling my lower belly. She
pressed her hips against mine for maximum penetration as her gasps became
cries. I did not pump but simply held myself there as her movements grew
more frantic and her cries louder. I knew if I moved too much I would come
and I wanted to enjoy this as long as I could. Instead I just moved myself
from side to side a little, pushing her even closer to the brink as she
bucked beneath me. "Oh God... Oh God..." she moaned, her voice getting
higher and louder until her muscles locked and held rigid in an explosive
orgasm. The muscles of her vagina locked tight on my penis and almost
against my will I orgasmed, pumping my seed deep into the warm depths of her
body for what seemed a long, long time and intensifying her pleasure even
more, if such a thing was possible. We shared an endless moment of
agonizing pleasure before collapsing in an exhausted heap, with me still
laying on top and buried deep within her. Gasping for air and trying to
regain some of our strength, we lay like that for who knows how long.
Jenny's eyes looked up into mine and she was so a beautiful in the
half-light streaming in from the window. In those eyes there was no more
fire (though I knew it would soon be
back) but warmth and tenderness and gratitude and... love?
In an exhausted voice she said, "Hi there, stranger."
In a similarly exhausted voice I replied, "Hi there yourself.
Come here often?"
My unintentional double entendre sent us both
into a fit of laughter that wiped away any tension that might
have remained. It felt as if we had been lovers for years,
instead of just one frantic night. For a fleeting instant I felt
a glimmer of hope that it might go on for years... She spoke
and interrupted my musing. "You know, it's been well over a year
since I've... been with anybody. In one short night you've made
up for all that lost time and then some. I've never experienced
anything this intense. Never."
"I don't think I have either." I replied tiredly. "This was
incredible. Just as I had always thought it might be."
"Yeah. Me too." She shifted a little and a wave of residual
pleasure ran though me. "Actually, I could get used to this on
a... a regular basis. I've always, um, liked you. Maybe in the
near future we could... um..." I shushed her quietly, "The
future can take care of itself, and perhaps we'll be in each
other's. I think I'd like that myself very much. Right now let's
just enjoy the moment." She nodded silently and relaxed. It
was not long before my penis began to swell again, and Jenny
noticed it almost before I did for I had never pulled it out. The
second time around I was much less sensitive and lasted far
longer. She climaxed at least six times before I came again and
we both collapsed, exhausted for real, as the first light of dawn
began to color the sky outside.
We spent most of Sunday in bed, and not from exhaustion
either, although we did exhaust each other eventually. I never
did make it home that weekend, and it was with bitter
disappointment we faced the reality of Monday and going back to
work. We dragged in together half an hour late, disheveled and in
rumpled clothes (mine were the same ones from Saturday). I was
barely coherent enough to work all day long, but not for one
second did I regret it.
That was six months ago. We saw each other every weekend, and
most nights in between. Dianne moved out to join her new
boyfriend in Oregon City, and Jenny immediately invited me to
move in with her. I didn't waste any time packing.
At work they don't know anything about it, because the boss
frowns heavily on employee relationships (Or any other form of
fun that doesn't increase his profits, for that matter.) but
every time I walk by Jenny or meet her in the lunch room she
always favors me with a little smile and a conspiratorial wink,
which I always return.
You know, I used to hate working nights...
