Ahh,
Summer Lovin 2022
... This is a follow up to one of my early stories submitted for the 2019 comp - '
Cathy and Karate: The Beginning'
.
It's not essential to read that first, but probably a good idea to have a read when you get a chance. There's also references to other stories involving Tom's niece, Sammy. They're a bit of fun, but not a lot of romance.
=====
Cathy sidled up and sharply elbowed me in the upper arm. "So, you going to the tournament?"
I smiled and bumped my hip against hers. "Yep, definitely. Sempai's guilted me into going into the full contact fight, as well as the non-contact and kata. That's going to be a big day."
Cath laughed. "Conned me as well. State Karate Championships - three events. Full-on all right." She leaned down and whispered in my ear. "I'm going to be rooted at the end of the day."
I smirked. Cathy had become a much happier, and a much naughtier woman since we had a very personal discussion about her first time fuck. Discussion is probably not the right word. She had just let her story roll, and I pretty much just listened. So much hate towards one particularly nasty individual and so much guilt over how things worked out had been festering in her tall but solid body over the last seven years. It had mentally reduced her to a mouse - hiding in a dark corner and afraid of the world. I don't know why she trusted me with her story, but I was happy she did. It helped her a lot, and well, it did a lot for me. The dark clouds had blown away from her, and it was like she was making up for the years lost due to intense swimming training and Zac, her son, coming along unexpectedly.
We walked to the change room at the rear of the Dojo. A couple of others were changing out of their sweaty gi tops and heading home. Training before a tournament was always intense, but it was almost unbearable on a hot, humid summer night. We exchanged the usual remarks about the heat and training with the others, and they left for somewhere cooler.
I peeled off my jacket and wiped myself down with a towel. "Bloody hell, that was a workout. I hate these nights." I quickly looked around. No one else was heading our way. "So, little Miss Sunshine, who's rooting you? Have you got a sexy secret guy you haven't told me about keeping you occupied?"
Cath blushed and giggled. She blushed so easily, and it was fun setting her off. I don't think she realised she went red right down to her toes. Watching it happen when she was naked was an experience I don't think I'd ever forget.
"No, I'm not having sex with anyone. Give me a chance. I haven't been out much yet." She guiltily looked around. "You're still the only guy that's seen me naked in nearly eight years." She undid her gi jacket and tossed it on a bench. "Can I borrow your towel, please? I forgot to bring one, and I really don't want to stick to the car seat."
"Sure. As long as you don't mind it being a bit sweaty." I said as I tossed my towel across to her, standing in her white sports bra and karate gi pants.
"Thanks." She quickly wiped her top half dryish, then snuck another quick look outside the room. Not seeing anyone she quickly removed her sports bra and dried her chest. "Sweaty boobs. Blah!" Cath pulled a crop top out of her bag and slipped it on, then pulled her yellow summer dress over her head. She then undid her pants and took them off. "Yuck."
I just watched, bemused. I wasn't expecting a boobie flash. Her tits weren't large, but they were nicely proportioned with tasty looking brown nipples. And they were boobs. I tried to give her my best sarcastic scowl. "Really Cath? You trying to give this old bloke a heart attack?"
She grinned. "If tonight didn't kill you, another look at my boobs shouldn't hurt." Cath then made a long, slow spectacle of wiping down her lower half under the dress, paying particular attention to her crotch. After she'd finished drying herself, she tossed the sweaty towel back to me. "That's for enjoying my underwear!" she giggled.
I caught the towel and held it to my nose. Inhaling deeply, I replied "Mmmm. Sweaty pussy towel..." and quickly moved as Cath tried to hit me. Laughing, I finished changing and left. "Catch you tomorrow for coffee?"
Cath poked her tongue out at me. "Of course. See you then."
=====
I met Cath at our usual cafe for what's become our weekly ritual. We hugged, then took our drinks to the park next door. It was another hot day, so I pointed out a seat under a tree. I asked Cath, "So, what's new with you?"
Cathy sipped her coffee, looking off into the distance. "Nothing much. Got a couple of online assignments for work. Looks like one paper may take me on full time. That'd be nice."
"Local?" I asked.
"Yep. Don't really want to move." Cathy replied. She turned towards me. "I was wondering. Can Zac and I get a ride to the comp with you and Bec? My car is slowly dying and I don't want to push it too hard now because I'll need it for this job if it comes off."
I nodded. "Not a problem. Umm, we were going to stay overnight with the others in that holiday house. I don't know if you had planned to hang around, but if you wanted to get Zac home early, we'll head back after it's over."
Cathy gave me her huge smile."Thanks. We were planning to stay as well. Zac thinks we're camping. I've tried to tell him it's just a house, but he's convinced it's a tent. I don't know why."
I shrugged. "Is it his first time away?"
Cath nodded.
"Just call it camping. I can toss a tent and some other things into the boot. Have a think, and let me know." I looked at the time on my phone. "Sorry, gotta go. I'll call you later and organise the details."
Cathy stood up and kissed me on my cheek. "Ok, thanks. See you later. Don't work too hard."
I grinned back "I try not to, but they make me do things. See ya. Oh, by the way. You look great with contacts. The glasses really didn't do anything for you."
She beamed and skipped away.
=====
A couple of weeks of normality went by. Eat, sleep, work, karate - repeat. And coffee. Always coffee.
Bec walked in one night after work, looking dejected. "Hey Tom. Umm. I can't go to the tournament with you. Work wants me to hang around that weekend to get ready for an audit."
I looked up from grating cheese. "Seriously? That's not fair. They've had a year to figure out a day, and they picked then?" I sighed and shrugged. "I suppose you can't get out of it? Zac will be very disappointed. He was going to hunt for Pokemon with you afterwards."
Bec snorted "No. I can't, and I'm hurt that my husband won't miss me watching him get beaten up for the first time."
