I walked in the door and bent over, clutching my hips as I tried to catch my breath. A drop of sweat slowly dribbled down the bridge of my nose, dangled, and fell to the floor with a small mushroom-cloud splash. It was damn hot.
And that was going to be a problem. Another image flashed through my brain. It was a globule of saliva, moving in slow motion, hanging off my ball sack attached to a long sticky thread. The strand broke and the globule fell to the floor, only my view of the splash was obscured by the flashing mane of hair of the beautiful woman who was furiously sucking my cock. Such was her enthusiasm that spit was flying in all directions as she pistoned her tightly gripping hand and mouth up and down my rigid shaft. The flash of her diamond wedding band momentarily blinded me and interrupted the incredible view.
I was so fucking horny. I hadn't been able to get this image out of my head all the way down the hill on my nightly "constitutional". It had repeated like a peep show loop in my brain for the last half mile at least. My dick was hard and sensitive, and chafed against the strained polyester of my running shorts. But I was sweaty. I would have to cool down in a hurry if I had any chance of getting any action from Caroline tonight.
I entered the powder room and dabbed at my forehead with the damp fabric I had been carrying, noting its pungent musk. I opened the cabinet and stashed the stinky rag inside then I splashed cold water on my face in an attempt to cool down and wash the funk off of me. Then I headed up the stairs to our bedroom. As I crested the landing, I could see the timer on the TV flash "5 minutes remaining". Oh shit. This was another problem. She had probably set the sleep timer on the TV for 30 minutes. With five minutes left, Caroline would be practically asleep. Me sticky with sweat and her nearly unconscious, it looked like I'd be taking care of my own hard-on.
Sure enough, she was curled up on her side, facing away from the television, with her eyes barely open. Her left hand lay alongside her exquisite face, the long, slim digits emphasizing her fine delicate features. Her ring glistened in the flickering light of the local newscast. My cock ached.
"You made it back," she mumbled softly, "I'm glad. Now I can go to sleep."
"You look like you weren't having a lot of trouble sleeping," I joked, "but really, who's going to mess with me? A pack of coyotes?"
"A car," she replied sternly, "or a heart attack. Or who knows what else. You're not so young any more."
"Ouch. That hurts."
Caroline laboriously opened one eye and grinned at me.
"I carry a phone, and a flashlight, and I always look both ways before I cross the street. You might be right about the heart attack, though. My heart is pounding and I'm all agitated. I've got this image I can't get out of my head. It's driving me crazy."
Caroline and I played a little game sometime, as part of our foreplay, where I would make up fantasy stories for her. She would listen and sometimes comment, making wry observations and gently guiding the story until one or the other of us became too hot and bothered and touched off the actual sex. I decided to go for it here. I started in casually though.
"Yeah, when I was on my way up the hill I saw this couple, I think one of the new families that moved in up by the Filmores. You know, she's pregnant, and he's got a shaved head? Anyway they were out walking their dog and I saw them and one thing led to another and now I can't get this, um, 'scenario' out of my head."
Caroline's head was back on the pillow and her eyes were again heavily lidded. She grunted softly. I couldn't tell if she was aware of the game and encouraging me or not. So I continued.
"Normally I keep my headphones on and don't stop to chat, but maybe, since they're new to the neighborhood, I should say hello, right?"
There was no reaction from Caroline, just a slight intake of breath.
"We chit chat, I find out she's six months pregnant, bada bing, bada boom, one thing leads to another and the next thing you know I'm telling them the birth story."
"Mmmm," murmured Caroline, "that one always slays 'em." Her eyes were still closed but her voice was sounding more alert. Hmmm, this was looking a bit more promising.
"Yes of course, they're practically eating out of my hand. How could two soon-to-be first-time parents resist a story about a man delivering his own baby on the side of the road?
"Five minutes later, Kim and Bob think I'm the Dr. Phil of birth stories. They're embarrassed about interrupting my walk, but they want to hear more war stories about our three deliveries, so they invite me back to their place for a drink. It's just around the corner. Ordinarily I wouldn't have accepted, but I was just about to turn around and head home. They seemed like an interesting couple, so I went along.
"It turns out that they're young professionals, well, Kim's a lawyer, and Bob's a writer for a reality show or something. Who knew there was such a thing? Anyway. Pregnant with their first child, and none of their friends have any kids yet, and they're desperate for someone to talk to about it, and I'm nothing if not an expert at this point, right honey? Anyway, to make a long story short, she's complaining about how hard it is to sleep and how she's up all night, so I tell her about when you were pregnant with Luke, and how hot it was that summer, and how you kept waking me up every hour to complain.
"'Oh my God' Kim practically shouts, 'that's awful. I'm not that bad yet, I only get up two or three times a night, and I never wake up Bob. I guess he's got it easy. So what did she do, what did you do? I would be a wreck if I was up that much'
"So I tell her, what with all the hormones and everything, you were at your horniest then, so it kind of worked out in my favor.
"'Oh my God!!!' screams Kim again, 'me too. I'm so horny all the time I'm like a cat in heat. But Bob thinks my belly is gross.'
"'I do not, honey!' Bob protests, 'I'm just worried about hurting you and the baby.'
"'That's what he says,' replies Kim, 'but I don't believe him. He hasn't touched me in four weeks and we used to do it every night before this.' And then she looked at me and blushed furiously, as she realized that she had just spilled the beans on their most intimate secrets."
"Wait a minute." Caroline interrupted, "It's not that intimate - you haven't even told me what they look like!"
Yes! Pay dirt! Caroline was playing along now. I noticed her hand had moved and was now resting against my arm as I lay next to her on the bed. I flexed my bicep for her benefit as I launched into my descriptions.
"Bob's medium height, kind of wiry, carefully shaved head. It looks like he used to have very dark hair and features, which he accessorizes with a pair of clunky 1980's Elvis Costello glasses. I guess you'd call it a post-punk intellectual look.
"Kim's about 5'2", probably 110 before she got preggo, petite but no waif. Medium-length straight strawberry blonde hair. It's cut in a kind of 'That Girl' flip. Seems like more of a D-girl cut than a lawyer, but maybe she's an entertainment attorney. She's got pale, pale skin and a sharp, straight nose. Not unattractive, but prominent. She's wearing a pair of sweats, nice ones -- you know, the Beverly Hills kind -- which she's cut off as shorts and is wearing slung below her belly. She's wearing one of his dress shirts, which isn't all that big on her. Plus she's got it open from the bottom to drape over the sides of her big, round belly. She's not wearing a bra, and her tits look to be smallish, but with huge brown nipples like California olives."
"You can tell that through her shirt?" Caroline asked, impertinently.
"Just trust me. I tell you how I found out later. Anyway, can I continue the story now? So I say, 'Well I'm sure it's not because you're unattractive. I can say without hesitation that I think you're gorgeous and I'd have no hesitation in jumping your bones.'
"I was joking, just trying to put her at ease, but my words hit the air like some sort of concussion grenade. There was complete silence and I swear no one breathed. Now I was the one who was embarrassed.
"I looked at Bob. He was staring blankly at me.
"'Right, Bob? You think she's still gorgeous, don't you?' I was trying to direct the attention away from me and lead him to say the right thing, even if he didn't really feel that way. But he remained silent. He stared over my shoulder, his eyes locked with hers. I wanted to se her expression, but she was behind me and it seemed like it would be rude to turn around and confront her. Then I felt her hand on my shoulder.
"'Would you really?' she asked softly. 'Um, I mean, do you really think I'm attractive?'
"I turned to face her and stare into her pale blue eyes. She held my gaze without blinking as I looked for a clue as to how I should respond. Then I remembered; there's only one acceptable response to that question, for any woman.
"'Of course. You're beautiful. Fit. Pretty face. Great legs. Nice chest. I'm sure you were gorgeous before you got pregnant, you'll be gorgeous after, and you're sure as hell gorgeous now.'
