A Lot Of Catching Up
"Hey, Mandi."
"Hey, Justin. How are you?"
"I've been better. I've been worse, too, though." Mandi just laughed.
It had been months since Mandi and I had hung out. We rarely talked, and when we did, our schedules were always conflicting, which made it hard to hang out and get all caught up on life.
"Hey Justin." Rachel had come from the kitchen into the living room.
"Hey you! What are you up to?" I ask as I sit on the couch.
"Not much. I was here talking to Mandi and she told me you were stopping by, so I had to stay and see you." I grabbed Mandi by the waist and pull her down next to me on the loveseat. "I didn't even know you were down here any more." Rachel stated as she sat down on the couch across the coffee table from Mandi and I.
"Yea. I just moved back down here. City life just ain't my thing. It was ok for college, but this here town is my home."
"He just missed me so much; he had to come back see me." Mandi joked as Rachel and I laughed.
"Yup. That's exactly why I moved back down here." I stuck my tongue out at Mandi.
After a few seconds of silence, Rachel stood up from the couch. "Well. I've got to get going. Mom needs me to babysit tonight. She's got another date with that Mark guy."
"Oh?" Mandi and I inquired at the same time.
"He still hasn't popped the question? It's been what? Two or three years?" I asked in amazement.
"Four, actually. But she says she thinks its coming really soon." She paused. "She hopes." She started across the living room as Mandi and I stood up. "We'll have to get together soon. Let me know when you're free."
"Ok. See ya later, babe." I said as I gave her a hug.
"Talk to you tomorrow, Rach." She also gave Rachel a hug.
"Ok. Talk to you tomorrow. See ya."
Rachel closed the door behind herself and Mandi and I sat back down on the loveseat. "How have you been? Its been so long since we've sat down and caught up." I asked as I kicked off my boots and faced Mandi on the loveseat.
"Well. Momma wanted to be here to see you, but she had to go back to New Jersey to testify. " She paused. "I cant believe its been a year and a half already." Ashley, Mandi's older sister whom used to babysit my sister and I when we were younger, had been hit by a drunk driver while riding her bike to class on her college campus.
"I know. It seems like it was last week." I leaned in and wrapped Mandi in a hug.
"It really does."
"Well," I started swinging the conversation. "When Momma gets back, you tell her to call me and I'll come stop by and talk to her."
"You bet. She'll be glad to hear from you. Just like I am." A smile came back to her face.
"It's nice out. Why don't we go sit outside?" I asked.
"Sure."
Mandi got up and led through the dining room to the back door. We walked outside and sat under the weeping willow that stood in her back yard, overlooking a huge lake. There were many summer days we spent swimming and splashing in that lake, and many nights spent under this old tree just talking about how we couldn't wait to leave this sleepy little town.
"How's your parents? Aren't they separated?" she asked as we both sat down against the trunk facing the water.
"Yea. They've been for a few years now. Dad's doing well, but I couldn't tell you how, or even where, my mother is. I haven't seen or talked to her since the day the divorce was finalized."
"And Bethany? She's in college now, isn't she?"
"Yup. Junior up in Jersey at Rowan. I'm not really sure why she went up there."
"Young love. We had that one time."
"That we did."
Mandi and I had dated off and on through high school, but we went separate ways for college. Neither of us were willing to go forward with a relationship only seeing each other every three or four months. A half hour drive between homes was hard for us in high school, let alone the six or seven between colleges.
"You remember the night I left for Virginia Tech? You begged me to stay..."
I interrupted her mid sentence. "Yea. We sat right here in this exact spot and you told me you were leaving in the morning. It was so hard to let you go that night. To this day, I can't tell you how hard it was to let you go."
"I know. It was so hard to walk away from you." We both sat there replaying that night over and over in our minds.
After a few minutes, she slid down and laid her head on my lap. By this time, the sun was mostly set. All the light that was left was a little strip of pinkish purple sky on the horizon and the houses on the opposite side of the lake. The moons face shown brightly on the little wakes as they lapped upon the shore. The crickets singing their songs, and in the distance, the whippoorwill singing her last songs of the evening.
"Its such a beautiful night." she said.
"That it is. One of the most beautiful nights I've seen in many Tennessee summers."
After a big, deep breath, looking as to build up the courage to do something, she started to speak. "Here. I want you to see this." She started going through her blackberry and then turned it to me. It was a video of us slow dancing the night before she left for college.
"Damn. Momma shoot that!?" I asked.
She giggled a little. "Yea."
"I love Momma." I said with a smile. "Not as much as..." I stopped myself.
"Not as much as what?"
I was caught. "Not as much as I love you, Mandi." She was silent. "And that's why I stopped myself." I mumbled almost dejectedly.
Mandi looked up at me, her head still on my lap. "Justin." She paused. "I love you, too." She spun around sitting up, and wrapped her arm around my neck. Our lips touched, and it felt like no other kiss I had felt before.
"Wow." was all I could muster.
It was just a kiss. Or was it? I have had to play these games with her before. But no other time had we kissed where the look she gave me was this one. It was a look of innocence. A look that told me there was more to that then just a kiss.
"Where did that come from?"
"I thought..."
Before she could even finish, I quickly pushed my lips to hers. Then I sat back, she quickly grabbed hold of my shirt and laid back, pulling me on top of her. I continued kissing her lips as I slowly unbuttoned her blouse. As my hands moved up her sides, she quickly unbuttoned my shirt, and then vigorously threw it off my shoulders. Then she started running her fingers through my hair. The massaging of my scalp with her soft fingertips made me groan a little. I slid my arms under her upper back, lifted her up, which made her blouse fall back to the earth. While supporting her with my left arm, I pressed my lips to hers and unclasped her bra, then slowly let her back down.
Her face was pink as I finally pulled my lips off of hers and opened my eyes. Her deep blue eyes looked at me softly as I pulled her bra off her arms. Without a word being said, as I slowly ran my hands all over her stomach, I gradually started laying soft kisses down the left side of her neck and onto her chest. The closer I moved to her nipple, the quicker her breaths were, until I slowly slid my tongue over top of the mound. She took a quick, deep breath, holding it for what had to seem to be hours, but was a mere five seconds.
I made a little suction around her nipple, and slowly pulled upward, stretching her with me, until the little gumdrop-shaped flesh was pulled from my mouth. She let out her deep breath with a long moan. I slowly moved my right hand down to the top of her jeans, unbuttoning them. As I unzipped her pants, I continued to suckle her breasts.
I started to slid my hand up across her pelvic region and stomach. While doing this, I slowly kissed and love bit my way back up her upper chest and up the right side of her neck. My hand making it to her chest, I took a handful of mounded flesh and squeezed gently. Still massaging her breast, my lips made it to her earlobe. I lightly took hold of it with my teeth, gently flicking the bottom with my tongue.
She was breathing heavily now; long breaths in, long moans out. "If shes breathing and moaning like this now, I can't imagine how she'll be later." I thought to myself. I made my way to her mouth, laying light kisses along the way. I pressed my lips against her lips and slid my tongue against hers. Her hands roughly ran over my bare back. Within a second, she flipped me on my back, threw one leg over my hips, and pinned me down.
"Its your turn, now." she said as she slowly leaned in towards my chest. My hands gravitated toward her hips. She slid her fingertips down my chest as she headed for the button of my jeans. When she reached the button, she moved her other hand to help with the unbuttoning, then slid a hand down under my boxers, grabbing hold of my rock hard cock.
"I want this." she said between long, deep breaths.
"Oh?" I whispered. "Where would you like that to go?" I asked now teasing her with my hand between jeans and panties.
She moved her hand from my shaft to the top of my hand, which was still between her jeans and her panties. "Right here."
"Is that where you want that?" I whispered lightly in her ear.
"Oh, yes!"
I lifted her off of my hips and set her to the ground. I rolled so my chest was facing her side, her back laying on the ground, and her head resting at the base of the willow. I softly slid my right hand down her side and along the V-notch of her unzipped pants. I took my middle and index fingers and slid them down the smooth skin on each side of her slit. Her left hand gripped my right forearm.
"Oh?" Do we not like that?" I asked rhetorically.
"No. More." she said gasping for air.
"No more?" I asked. "I haven't even started anything yet."
"No. I want more."
"Oh. I see. You want more." I pulled my ring finger back and slowly started the middle finger down her soaking wet slit. "How do you like this?" I questioned.
"More."
I continued moving my finger up and down between her folds, making her already heavy breathing, heavier. Reaching the bottom of her folds, I slowly slipped up inside her. She quickly pulled in a deep breath, and held it. Her face grimaced.
"You ok, babe?" I asked concerned.
"Mmhhmm." she hummed, her face still grimacing. "Just be gentle."
"This is the first..."
She interrupted me. "I've been saving this for you."
I continued to gently slide my finger in and out of her and I could see she was biting her bottom lip trying not to show pain.
I could feel her body loosening up the more I worked her tight muscles. Soon enough her body began to relax around my finger, so I paused quickly and added a second finger and slowly moved it along with the first. After a dozen passes, her gasps became increasingly faster. After only a minute, she was lightly moaning through pursed lips, and I could see that she was trying to hold it all in.
"Go ahead, babe. Let it out." I whispered in her ear. I stopped with the in and out motion, and started with sliding my fingertips against the top of her vagina. She let out a few short, quick moans. "That's it."
I positioned my body between her spread thighs without taking my hand from soft, wet interior, and started laying light kisses on her tender pelvic region. She arched her back moaning even louder. She grabbed the top of my head and pushed it down towards my left hand. Using my right hand, I gently parted her folds and lightly started caressing her clitoris with my tongue. I barely made three or four passes with my tongue before she sprung up, reached out and grabbed my right hand.
"Stop!"
"What's wrong, babe?"
"I can't stand it any more!" She paused and took two deep breaths. "I want you inside me now!"
I tenderly set her back down and laid on top of her. Moving my hips up to the underside of her hips, I positioned my member up to the entrance of her body. She took hold of my hips and slowly pulled me up inside her. She let out a sharp gasp and stopped for a few seconds, holding my hips tightly against hers. Her eyes were squeezed tight and she was biting her lip so hard, I thought it was going to start bleeding.
I hesitated and asked, "Are you alright to continue, Babe?"
Her eyes fluttered open and they were wet from the tears she had been holding back. "Mmhhmm," she answered quietly. Her head came up and she brushed her lips against mine in a light kiss and laid back down. The love in her eyes was so intense, I knew this was something she truly wanted and only I could give it to her. I began moving again slowly inside her, pushing my way further and further into her.
It was like nothing I had ever felt before. Her velvet lining felt better, tighter then any other I had felt. Moving in as far as her hips would allow and all but pulling out gave me more pleasure then I could ever describe. But no matter how good it felt to me, I'm sure that it felt a million times better to her.
I slowly picked up the pace a little as I watched her face loosen up. Her body all but pulled my member up inside her. I had such a hard time keeping my movements slow and gentle. My body wanted to take over so badly, but I couldn't let it. I had to take this time slow until she was fully ready.
I couldn't help it. My body just took over. I had no control. I started moving faster until I couldn't go any faster.
"Yes! Yes! YES!" was all she was just short of screaming as I moved around inside her.
Moving forward and back, her movements countered mine, making every feeling infinitely better. I paused for a short moment, positioning my thighs together, my body upright. Her hips sat on my thighs, and I started my movements again.
"Harder! Faster! That feels so good." She let out a few long moans before ordering me again. "A little higher... Right... There... Yes! Yes!" She increased to a scream as her body started to convulse. Her body only shook for a moment, but her long, drawn out breaths continued. After letting her take in two or three deep breaths, I pulled out and returned my chest to hers, moving my lips right next to her right ear.
"Want some more?" I questioned teasingly.
She spoke one word between breaths. "Oh. I. Want. Tons. More." She took in a few more breaths, and, as I started to reposition, she stopped me. "It's your turn."
I had a puzzled look on my face for a second until she pushed me backwards, climbing atop my hips.
"Oh? You want to lead, now?"
She nodded slowly. "I want you to know how good you feel to me."
Taking my erection with her right hand, she lifted herself to her knees and guided me inside. Slowly, she started moving up and down on my dowel. I could feel her PC muscles clench around my penis, making her already tight grip on me even tighter. My manhood was throbbing inside her. My heavy breathing matching hers. My eyes never left hers, and hers never left mine. The movements she made were so fluent, I could all but hold back.
"Oh my god. Stop. Stop." I gasped quickly as she was on an upswing. I tried to move away from her hips, but she forced herself back down and I couldn't help but pump my fluid up into her. After a moment, she fell backwards to the ground and I leaned over her. I placed my lips to hers. After a moment to catch my breath, I sat up, and she immediately rested her head on my bare lap.
We sat there silent for about an hour, just watching the moon creep away from us across the water. After we both got redressed, I sat with my back against the tree, and she laid next to me, head on my lap.
"Justin."
"Mandi." I answered looking down at her head on my lap.
She turned, looking up at me. "I love you."
"I love you."
Nothing more need to be said. And nothing more was said. She just closed her eyes and cuddled up to me. At that time, the moon was directly above us, showing its face through the lightly swaying branches. She was sleeping, head on my lap, body cuddled up to mine.
After a few minutes, I could feel the evening chill take over. So, very quietly, I stood up. I picked her up, and started towards the house. When I got her inside, I brought her to her room and laid her on the bed. I gave her a kiss goodnight, and started for the light. I reached the doorway and looked back at her one more time. "You are one beautiful girl" I thought to myself before I shut off the light.
"Please don't leave." I heard the tired voice say as I was swinging the door shut.
I turned, opened the door, and turned on the light. She was sitting up, looking at me.
"Where do you suppose I sleep?" I questioned.
"You can sleep right here with me." A pause. "Momma won't be home, and even if she was, she'd probably yell at you if you were to leave."
"She would, wouldn't she?" I thought a moment. "Ok. I'll stay."
I walked over to the bed and climbed in. She again cuddled up to me and I could see the huge smile on her face.
"I love you, Justin."
"I love you, too. Good night, Love."
"Good night."
The smile on her face continued as she drifted off to sleep with her head on my chest. "She's the only girl I've ever truly loved, and I can't imagine living without her."
