I woke the next time when I felt the bed move as she rolled out and headed for the bathroom.
I glanced at the clock on the headboard and saw it was 6:04 and my body almost rebelled. But the good news was that there was enough light that I could watch her.
And in that instant, my taste in women was set.
Carla was a big girl, Don't get me wrong, not nearly as big as the later women in my life, but she was a big girl. As she walked away I saw her big ass swinging and in the light, I could see incipient rolls in her back and the dimples of cellulite. And I liked, very much, what a saw.
I waited, adopting my best Burt Reynolds pose from that centerfold in Cosmopolitan magazine pose, ankles crossed, chin propped on my palm, with my left hand strategically positioned to cover my burgeoning erection.
I heard the toilet flush and then the water running. Then there was that distinctive sound of gargling. I chuckled.
As she came back into the room, almost cartoonish in the way she was tiptoeing, I watched, enjoying the little show.
"Oh," she said with a soft, almost childish giggle, "you're awake."
I moved my hand, showing her the effect she had on me.
She smiled and came to the side of the bed. I enjoyed watching her. She moved with that fat woman's odd combination of grace and awkwardness. Her arms were slightly away from her body, the pads of fat at her armpits meaning she rubbed when she swung her arms if she didn't hold them like that. Each step made her boobs sway. I enjoyed watching her.
"And you are beautiful," I said, making her giggle a little.
She leaned over, boobs hanging, swaying gently, and kissed me, a little good morning peck.
"Go pee and brush your teeth," she said, smiling, "and we'll discuss who's the most beautiful."
I chuckled, rolled out of bed, kissed her, patted her ass, and went in to do as she said. I peed, shook, and went to the sink. There was one toothbrush and I figured after what we'd done, this was a pretty minor intrusion. I brushed my teeth and, praise God, found a bottle of Listerine so I rinsed thoroughly.
When I got back to the bedroom she had adopted the position I had held. Her head was propped on her palm, her left leg slightly bent and slightly forward with her hand covering her sex. Well, her pussy. Her boobs were very much on display, the big areolas tight wrinkled circles with the very pink, almost red nipples standing proudly.
"God, you ARE beautiful," I said and to my surprise, she blushed.
"Thank you, David," she said, "you flatter the fat girl."
I crawled onto the bed beside her, mirroring her position, and leaned forward until we kissed.
It was an awkward kiss. Neither of us was in a good position.
It was a good kiss. It was tender, gentle, and, yes, loving.
It was a kiss that lingered. Neither of us wanted it to end. My hand rested on the roundness of her hip and hers found the bone of mine.
It slowly turned into a great kiss. Our lips were brushing rather than pressing. Her tongue lightly brushed my lips and mine did the same.
It was a spectacular kiss. It became the kiss against which I measured all future kisses and found most of them wanting.
Finally, she broke the kiss, pulling far enough away so our eyes could focus on each other, laying her hand on my cheek. Again, I mirrored her movement, my hand laying very lightly on her cheek.
She took a deep breath and breathed out, "wow."
I took my own deep breath and breathed out, "yeah, wow."
I moved my hand to her shoulder and pushed, very gently. She was too big, and obviously understood the leverage too well, to actually "push" her over. But she responded to the gentle pressure and rolled onto her back.
I brushed the hair back from her face, clearing her forehead, and began exploring her with my fingertips, like a blind man. I liked the deep lines that formed when I tickled her forehead and the way her cheeks seemed to become more distinct when I brushed my fingertips across her eyelids and she sort of scrunched up her face. So I traced the roundness of her cheeks and she relaxed.
"Ewwww," she said softly as my fingertip explored the inside of her nose.
Her eyes opened and she met mine.
"A new kink?" she asked.
I smiled and kissed her.
"No, Carla," I said, my voice pitched low, "I just want to explore all of you."
"Oh, God," she sort of moaned, but closed her eyes.
