Author's note:
This is the conclusion of the story of Glenn Svoboda, the paperboy. Mary Gilbert and Roxanne Fein are middle-aged reprobates who took an opportunity to seduce a young man for their pleasure. In the meantime, Glenn went out with a classmate named Nan and later her close friend Jackie Reiner. Between dating Nan (only once) and dating Jackie (we see their first date in this chapter) he met and began a steamy relationship with Lisa Fein, before he realized he would be engaged in an affair with her mother.
Lisa is his fuck bunny. That's what I call it, that kind of relationship. The two don't really love one another, but they constantly have sex. I had a girl like that. Instuctional, no end. Glenn is still fucking Lisa every way he can and he's about to have his first date with Jackie.
He meets the older women on Sundays, collection day for the newspaper route. Our chapter opens with the older women discussing him in his absence.
You may as well know that hogs have sexual pheromones in their breath vapor. It makes sows turn their hips toward them and brace for sex. Now you know why that bar was called Hog's Breath.
Please vote! I enjoy knowing if the story is engaging people. Thank you!

"Speaking of the paper boy," Mary said suddenly, "my god, you're like a slave to him!"
Roxanne Fein froze.
How much does she know? My God, Glenn's talked!
She forced a nonchalant "What do you mean?" and felt her confidence drain into a puddle on the floor.
It was Thursday and Mary had come to visit and have lunch. Her arrangement with Glenn was very much as Mary described it; she hoped he hadn't told Mary why.
"I watched you. He says anything, you jump right up there!"
Understanding now that she was talking about the Sunday session, Roxanne drew breath again.
She doesn't know, oh thank God!
Mary warmed to her theme. "You did it right away, right from the first second, too, even though you're not quite so spineless now. What has the kid got, some kind of hog's breath?"
"Well, you know me, Mary," she said, "I always fall hard, and Glenn just stole my heart. I wanted to do things for him. Don't you?"
"Not like you! But I suppose I do want to make him amazed, or whatever you say, amaze him. He was so funny when he was unsure what to do!"
"So you love him right to death, just like I do." Roxanne argued.
There was some justice to her propositions, and it made Mary think. "I still say you act very slavish, sometimes. But he loves it!"
"He loves licking, too, doesn't he?" The change of subject went through and they discussed his technical merits for a while. But she thought afterward
I never saw him unsure what to do.
She couldn't imagine what it would be like, even.
Mary must have been fooled somehow.

Jackie's dad had made her change. Her club clothes had been a shade too cool, so she was now in blouse and skirt. But once they got to the dance, she pulled a skein of black lace out of her purse.
"Look! Black lace gloves! I got some other things, I'm gonna hit the ladies' room. But I gotta change back before I go home!"
"You want this?" He untied a satin scarf, white and figured with black, from his belt and held it up. "To play with while you're dancing, let me put it on you, here."
He looped it over her head and gently pulled her to him. When she let him do it, he gave her a kiss on the side of the neck, low.
"What are you doing?" She meant it to sound stern and accusing, but she continued to stand body-to-body against him. He smelled good.
"You don't hafta take the scarf if you don't want it."
"You kissed me!"
"Kissing the neck is a sign of passion."
"Uh huh." But she took the scarf with her into the ladies' room, and wore it with her outfit. They had a good evening dancing and flirting, and she met Deanna, the bass player for Oblong.
Deanna's mother had always been Aunt Cheryl to Glenn, which made her his sort-of cousin. Deanna was twenty-four; but she'd always been amused by Glenn and she gave his date the benefit of the doubt. So they talked with the band between sets. This raises your cool titer.
While they were watching out the school window for their ride back, Jackie pulled the scarf out. "Want this back?"
"Will you take it as a gift?"
She looked at it, then she had an idea. "Let me try it out first." She draped it behind his neck and tugged his head close enough to kiss his neck.
"Passion," she said. He put a hand behind her nape and kissed her, then they stood in each other's arms a while. White light, from headlights, was cast across their faces through the window.
"It's your dad. Will you keep the scarf, Jackie?"
"Yeah. Thank you. Look, my dad's all weird about this, don't even touch me when we go out there, okay?"
