I was driving through Illinois on a rainy evening in late March. My destination, Savannah, was still many miles down the road. The driving rain, bumpy roads and lack of sleep all contributed to the fatigue I was beginning to feel. A mileage marker showed that Champaign was 140 miles away and, although I planned to drive straight through, a warm bed was very inviting. In another hour I would decide if I should stop and get some rest before continuing on my journey.
Emergency flashers in the distance caught my attention and I slowed down to see if I could offer assistance. As I pulled in behind the stopped vehicle a stunning female form got out and approached my window. Opening my window I was greeted by and attractive, soaking wet, and somewhat frustrated woman who said her name was Susan. She said that she was on her way to Champaign for a weekend teaching conference and that her transmission had failed. A tow truck had been called but wouldn't be here for another 2 hours. She was unsure about what to do. I introduced myself and told her I was heading in that direction and I could take her there. This seemed to relax her and, with only a moment's hesitation looking into my calm, reassuring eyes, she accepted my offer. After a quick phone call to her auto club and another to a friend relaying my license number and description she went to her trunk for her luggage.
Getting out of my truck I said, "Let me help you with that." I stowed her bags in the back of my truck and made room for her in the passenger seat. I held the door open for her as she seated herself and relaxed for the first time in hours. Sitting in the driver's seat next to her I started the engine and proceeded down the road...leaving her car in the distance.
We elaborated on our introductions and, after some initial awkwardness, our conversation became comfortable, light-hearted and intriguing. Not only was she attractive but she was also very intelligent, friendly and inviting. We both commented that it seemed as if we had known each for years. My gaze inadvertently dropped to blouse when I noticed that it's shear and soaked material left very little about her breasts to the imagination. I tried to stop myself from staring at her obviously beautiful breasts with nipples pressing hard against her bra while we conversed...but I couldn't help myself. She noticed my gaze after a few glances in her direction and followed it.
"Oh my God! I'm so embarrassed," she gasped while trying to pull her blouse from her clinging breasts. Her face turned a very becoming shade of crimson and instantly the atmosphere in my truck became a little more guarded.
"I'm sorry...I didn't mean to stare but...." I started to stammer.
"No need to apologize. I should have realized I was showing more than I should with the rain and all." Susan offered as a shiver went through her body.
"You really do need to get those wet clothes off. There's a rest area up ahead about 30 miles. Do you have any dry ones in that duffle behind you?" I asked.
"I am getting cold but I don't see why I can't change right now...as long as you promise to keep your eyes on the road." she added with a smile.
