Chapter 7.
The Education of Barbara
She liked his mature sophistication, his knowledge of physical love. She liked the skill and expertise he demonstrated in bedding her, his sensitivity to her sexual needs. For his part, Ludlow could understand why Barbara dabbled in lesbianism; while she was an enthusiastic bed-partner it was obvious that her previous boyfriends were ignorant finer points of lovemaking; she was far from fully versed in The Art of Love.
Her roommate was understandable unenthusiastic about Barbara's sudden renewed interest in heterosexual activities, however. As a result Barbara took to spending more and more time with Ludlow at his place.
The true education of Barbara started their second time together.
He met her at the door to his place. Once inside they kissed, then Ludlow asked her to please wait while he attended to some things; she could make herself at home. While he puttered about Barbara decided to pleasantly surprise her lover. She wandered into the bedroom, stripped down to her underwear, lay back on the pillows and waited for him there. The sunlight poured in through the blinds, playing upon the firm curves of her body and emphasizing the contrast where the white lace of her undergarments lay against her cream-coloured skin.
But it was Ludlow who surprised her when he walked into the bedroom with a towel over his shoulder, a can of shaving cream and a razor in his hand, a wide grin on his face. Barbara regarded him with a somewhat puzzled look. "It's time we do something about that hairy snatch of yours, young lady," he chuckled, indicating her crotch with his chin.
He sat on the bed beside her and placed the shaving cream and razor on the side table before reaching for the silky white lace that encircled her hips. Barbara obediently lifted her ass so that he could remove her panties. He tapped the inside of her thighs, indicating for her to spread her legs. She did so without hesitation, quite shamelessly exposing her pussy to him in the well-lit room. The cool shaving cream tingled as it was applied between her legs, but she sat patiently with her legs spread wide apart as Ludlow carefully set about the task at hand. He started by narrowing down her triangle before moving lower to shave around her labia.
Halfway through Barbara began quietly chuckling. "Am I tickling you?" he asked.
"No, it's not that," she said with quiet laughter.
"What, then?" he asked, as her laughter became a nearly uncontrollable giggle.
"It's just that I just remembered," she laughed, "I have an appointment with my gynaecologist tomorrow!" They both laughed at this. Then as he continued, Ludlow remarked with a chuckle,
"Well, I imagine he's in for a surprise, then, isn't he?" Barbara blushed a deep red as she imagined old Doctor Basset of the University clinic's reaction tomorrow when she spread her legs tomorrow and exposed a freshly shaven pussy.
Ludlow wiped her clean of the remaining shaving cream then peered closely to inspect his work, his face inches from her crotch. Then he went into the bathroom and returned with a pair of scissors and a comb. Barbara watched, fascinated with the attention he paid to this task while Ludlow cropped what little hair remained to a severely close trim.
