That was the middle of September. The season was winding down, and things were definitely getting 'cooler' at home. So I was more than willing when Mandy said she wanted to go visit her family. She left. When the "Termination Dust" (the Alaskan term for the first new snow on the mountain peaks) began to fall, I packed up all of our stuff and put it on a barge headed south. I wasn't sure I would return, but I knew Mandy wouldn't β at least under the same circumstances. I went home. The three big boxes were sitting in my parents' garage. I loaded them into my car and went to Mandy's mother's house, where she was living. I opened each box and began separating her stuff from mine (I had been in too big a hurry to do it when I packed). Mandy watched, setting her stuff aside as it surfaced. "We're breaking up aren't we?" she calmly asked me. I looked at her. She was sad, but I was determined. It wasn't only that she had defaulted on our agreement. The relationship had paled anyway. I confirmed that our relationship was over. "I guess I fucked up, huh?" The tears began to ooze silently from her eyes and ran down her cheeks. We hugged and kissed once more.
We talked as we finished dividing our possessions. I can't remember what I told her. I know I didn't tell her the truth, that she just didn't turn me on any more. We parted. We didn't part angrily, however. I found work for the rest of that winter in a town just east of the mountain range that divides the state. I was living in a cheap motel that had weekly rates. On weekends, I would drive home and party with Jerry, Chris, and other friends, both old and new. Occasionally, Mandy would show up and we'd always spend some time together.
One day, I got a call at my motel room. It was Mandy asking if she could come and visit me for a couple of days. I told her it would be fine with me. When she got there, it became clear that she was trying to start things up again. While I knew I didn't want that, I also wasn't averse to some sex-for-old-time's-sake. Apparently that was good enough for her, as well. She had arrived on a Wednesday. When Saturday rolled around I told her I was planning on going home for the weekend. She sucked me off and we fucked before I watched her drive away. I threw some clothes in the car and drove over the mountains to Jerry and Chris's house. They had moved closer to their work and bought a one bedroom house. Jerry was at work when I got there. Chris was still in bed, having worked late the night before. She heard me come in and called out to me. I stuck my head in the bedroom door. She held her arms out to me. I went to her. She kissed me and began unbuttoning my shirt. It was as if the past months had been a dream. The love we had was still there and as alive as ever. Sex with other people -- Jerry for her and Mandy and a couple of others for me -- wasn't part of the equation and didn't interfere with what we felt.
I slipped under the sheet next to her. She was hot and sweaty. She smelled of sex and I knew she had fucked Jerry before he had left for work. I dove between her thighs and inhaled the heady scent. I licked and sucked at her folds, fully aware that I was drinking Jerry's come and hers. As it had that first time, and all the times I ate my own come from her afterward, it only served to make my cock all that much harder. We fucked and sucked our way to the afternoon.
About 2:00, Chris said we had to get dressed. She was expecting another girlfriend of hers to come by. We showered together and dressed. Chris told me all about the situation while we made and ate lunch. Dessert, as usual, was a joint or two. Susan had been married briefly to a friend of Jerry's. She had divorced him when she caught him in bed with another man. It had made her doubt her attractiveness and sexual desirability. She'd been partying a lot since the divorce. Chris had invited her out to the house to spend some time and hopefully decompress a little bit.
Susan parked her Volkswagen next to my big Pontiac in the driveway. She was wearing sandals, bell-bottoms and a flowered peasant blouse. One of the "70's uniforms", in other words. She pulled a big duffel kind of bag from the back seat and swayed to the door. She had butt-length dark hair and her tits were very big, round and (naturally) unharnessed. Introductions were made and we all shared the communion of a joint. We listened to music and 'rapped' for a couple of hours. Jerry arrived from work and we had spaghetti, garlic bread and wine. And more dope.
When bedtime rolled around, Jerry and Chris went off to their room. Susan refused the couch, insisting on the living room floor in her sleeping bag. After half an hour, I told her she could share the couch with me. She countered by inviting me to the floor. "There's more room to roll around here," she added. I threw off the blanket and rose up naked. She opened the bag and rolled onto her back, her legs spreading and lifting high in the air in welcome. Her pubic hair was the densest and darkest I'd ever seen. But her pussy was also the sweetest and most well lubricated. She wrapped her legs around my waist and I slipped easily inside her. She grunted like an animal with each thrust. When she came, she screamed, exactly as if she was in some dire pain. Jerry ran out of the bedroom, his cock bobbing in front of him, dripping with Chris's juices. He had a baseball bat in his hand. Chris's laughter echoed behind him. She knew Susan's tendencies, but hadn't been quick enough to stop him from running out to the rescue. When he realized it was just an orgasm he'd heard, he watched us fuck for a minute then went back to bed.
I lifted Susan's legs over my shoulders and pounded her hard. Our fucking drove us half off the opened sleeping bag. She gripped my forearms hard when her second orgasm hit her. Another scream and the clenching muscles of her pussy sucked my come from me. We lay there panting. Only then did I feel the abrasions on my knees from the canvas of the sleeping bag. I had rugburns on my knees for two weeks afterward. Susan told me her story that night. I'd already heard it, but knew she needed to tell me herself. Her ex-husband was unashamed when she caught him. He invited her to join him and his male lover, but she had ranted and gone ballistic. Finally she threw the two of them out.
That was the only time in my life that I've ever had three separate lovers in one day. Susan and I woke to the sunshine streaming through the windows. Her skin was pale, in contrast to her dark hair. I circled a nipple with my finger as we lay there talking. I rolled between her legs again, and once again she presented herself to me with her legs raised high. It was almost as if she thought that was the only position to have. I slipped inside her, but we weren't urgent. I was slow in my movements. The sex was secondary, but somehow necessary. I lowered her legs and rolled us over. She sat up and rode me slowly as we talked. When Chris stepped naked from the bedroom to go to the kitchen for a drink of water, we just said good morning and continued what we were doing. I thought I saw something pass across Chris's face, but she pushed it away. On her return, she stopped and talked to us a minute. It was a strange feeling for me. Other than the one time with Chris and Jerry, I'd never had an audience for sex. I watched Chris as she and Susan talked. Her eyes went frequently to Susan's crotch, usually remaining there for several strokes. Her hand drifted to her lap and in between her thighs. She didn't exactly start masturbating, but I could tell that she was getting hot watching us. It probably helped that she knew exactly what Susan was feeling since she had been astride me the same way in the past.
Chris smiled at us then, and went back to bed. A few minutes later we heard sexual sounds from the bedroom. Shortly, Chris, too, cried out in orgasm. I thought she seemed more noisy than usual, as if she was letting us -- or me anyway -- know that she was coming. It all caused Susan and me to attend more energy to our own fucking. Susan didn't come that morning; even though I did everything I knew how to help her. Even sucking my come from her didn't do it, though she got close.
Susan and I shared the floor for another night before I had to go back to work. She drifted up to the northern part of the state and got involved with some kind of commune that didn't believe in toilet paper. They had rags they used and laundered every day instead. I'm not sure what else they believed or disbelieved. For me that was enough to make me want to stay away.
Jerry and Chris stayed together another two years. I returned to Alaska and the job became year-round. On another visit home, in a game of cards with Jerry and Chris, I lost. I had been trying to get them to come to Alaska for a visit, but they couldn't afford it. So I had made that the bet for the game. I don't remember what they had bet against the plane tickets. A few months later, I got a call from them. Jerry said that he couldn't get away right then, but Chris wanted to come up. He could wait and come up later by himself. I felt kind of ambivalent about it. I'd wanted my affair with my friend's wife to be over. But he was sending her up to me by herself.
