CHAPTER 1
Until leaving for college Billy Bishop lived with his family above a grain and feed store in a small town. Two older bothers had gone into the business with their father, leaving no room for Billy, not that he wanted to have hayseeds in his hair for the remainder of his life.
His mother's married sister arrived for Billy's graduation as he'd been a top student and Julia wanted to reward Billy for taking after his mother instead of his father who had two sons similar to himself -- yokels. Julia hadn't announced it but she planned to present Billy with a check for $5000.
As sisters Mae and Julia were entering the gymnasium for the graduation of ninety-one students, Mae said, "Sorry you haven't seen much of Billy. He's been door-knocking still trying to find a job and has been writing a speech."
"What, he's giving a speech here?"
"I shouldn't think so. He's a bright spark in his class and is probably writing it for someone else. Here we go, there's two seats to the middle right on the aisle."
"I'm disappointed Jeff didn't come to see his son graduate."
Mae sighed. "He's not into formal functions. He didn't go when Lenny and then David graduated either. But don't worry, Billy's glad you are here. He really likes you."
"Well, he's not shy of me and talks like he's educated unlike his brothers. I looked into his room this morning and with his pin-ups there's a photo of me taken some twelve years ago. Why am I there?"
"Don't ask... you won't like the answer."
Julia smiled and said Mae was no longer a kid playing guessing games. She wanted to know.
"You're posted in the female section. They are all women with breasts he likes -- although he calls them tits."
Julia laughed and said her nephew liked her breasts?
"Don't flatter yourself dear; that photograph was taken almost fifteen years ago."
"Twelve."
"Fifteen."
"Oh all right smarty pants."
Nearing the end of the ceremony the school principal said, "It is the tradition at this school for the valedictory to be presented by our highest academic achiever of our graduates. For the past eleven years this honor has gone to a female. But this year it goes to William Russell Bishop."
Julia said in disbelief, "You didn't know?"
Billy's mother gasped, "No, All he said was he came near the top of his class. That's the same answer I always get when I ask."
Good-looking Billy with his olive complexion and curly brown hair spoke with confidence about, 'The Largely Unspoken Things of a High School Education'.
The gymnasium hushed as he spoke about kids who went home and worked, and arrived at school next morning, tired, but there were teachers aware of the situation and showed those kids tolerance. He spoke about how school managed to inject discipline into most students but regrettably some students who'd not learned that lesson would go to work or to college with an attitude that would see some of them struggle in life. One of the greatest things he'd enjoyed was seeing struggling students getting their first C-plus or a little higher mark for a paper. He'd also seen with girls in particular the academically stronger girl helping out a friend to achieve a higher performance and he'd seen some teachers spending their own time coaching students.
"This is a form a love that is not spoken about. I recognize it because I've never had to work very hard because of my awesome retentive memory and so gave the time like those other people I've just mentioned to help pals who wanted to be helped. I simply had a love for learning and didn't mind sharing it. Teachers who have that attitude are great teachers. But who speaks about it? You teachers who go that extra yard to share your gift know who you are. Today I just want to say I salute you... indeed I go as far as to say most of us here today salute you. We are not one of the biggest high schools around but I say we are a school with a very big heart."
When he finished everyone stood and clapped as usual but Billy looked decidedly embarrassed as the clapping, cheering and foot stomping went on and on until finally the principal sent Billy back to his seat and looking decidedly elated called for quiet.
Julia and Mae wiped their eyes and then hugged.
Billy came to them outside when he managed to break away from well-wishers. Mae hugged him, weeping, "This is the end of an era young man. I'm so proud of you."
He hugged his Aunt Julia who said, "Billy, don't bother looking for a job. I'm sending you to college. Give me a list of colleges you'd like to attend -- up to ten. I have friends in the right places to get you placed."
Mae looked shocked. "But that will cost thousands and thousands of dollars."
"Lance and I have money to burn. This boy is a near genius and I heard from his speech he has sensitivity and humility. I like it."
"I don't know what to say," Billy said in awe.
"Just tell her she still has a nice shape up top for an older lady."
"What are you talking about mom?"
Julia laughed. "Your speech has given your mother an adrenalin rush young man, drawing out her naughty side."
After his next graduation a few years later at university, Billy left with a Juris Doctor in Law and a Master of Business Administration, completing the dual program with distinction. Six weeks later he finally left his old home and his tearful mother, moving to New York to live with his Aunt Julia and to work at the law office where Uncle Lance was a senior partner.
Julia had not seen Billy since his university graduation when she had worried that he was not in the company of a female, instead going off that evening after dinner with his rowdy pal Raymond. She's worried that he might be gay but now watching him eye the breasts of her elder daughter found it necessary to remind him of something. "You'll remember Sonia don't you Billy, COUSIN Sonia?"
"Yes indeed. Hi Sonia."
Julia watched in shock as her daughter gave the handsome 26-year old a full open-mouth kiss.
"Wow!"
"Welcome to New York darling," Sonia purred. "My, you've grown up fine."
Alarm bells ringing, Julia raced off to call Sonia's sexiest friend Caroline who replied yes she'd be delighted to accept the invitation to dinner.
That arrival in New York began the rutting life of Billy Bishop. Billy had found available women hard to come by in small-town Kansas but during his vacation after graduation, one of his mother's younger friends had held out her arms for him, being enchanted by his rough manner but smooth talking. Although a divorcee with a live-in boyfriend, she and Billy managed to not get caught, keeping out of sight and fucking like rabbits.
Billy Bishop's New York rutting began auspiciously.
Over dinner that evening when Julia was out getting mains and Lance was taking a call, Caroline asked Billy out to a movie next evening and after he said yes Caroline invited Sonia to accompany them.
After dinner Lance went off to sleep in front of TV watching sport. The young people stayed at the table chatting and Julia felt it her duty to remain with them. She kept on drinking and contributed lively to the conversations. At last Caroline yawned and went home and Sonia yawned and went to bed. Julia led Billy to the guest wing, acting coquettishly and telling Billy he wouldn't be able to find his way, ignoring her nephew had an awesome memory and was smart.
In the bedroom suite his mom's younger sister took Billy's hand and pulled it over her breasts. "I understand you rather liked these when you were a lot younger?"
"I can see much of a problem with them today," he told the 45-year old, realizing the time had arrived to begin rewarding his auntie for rewarding him. "Are you worried about them dropping towards your knees?"
Julia swung at him. He caught her flying slap before it landed and smirked. Being a little drunk helped Julia break through the 'I-must-not-do-this' barrier and they were kissing and groping.
