Chapter Four: We Sail Away
And that's how The Lucille became Luscious Lucy. I liked the new name and made plans to have the old boat hauled out so the hull could be scraped and repainted with the new moniker scrawled across her stern. I was also learning all about boats from Deborah.
Deborah was turning out to be a wealth of information and a dynamo when it came to getting things done.
Monday had come and gone, the boat was up on the rails across the river from Mayport at Monty Daley's Boatyard. The hull repairs were scheduled to take about ten days so Deborah was to move her gear into my spare bedroom for the duration.
As I parked the Chevy in the drive in front of the house, Deborah turned and stared at me, "You have got to be putting me on!" She gasped, getting her first view of my decrepit old house.
"What?" I responded.
"You can't be serious," She whined.
"WHAT?" I repeated.
"This place is dangerous!" She wailed.
"You haven't even been inside," I grated, irritation seeping into my voice.
"I won't live long enough to clean this mess up!" She stated, uncoiling from the passenger side of the car and standing in the weed-infested patch beside the driveway. "What happened to your house?"
"Nothing. Why, what's the problem?" I grumbled. "It needs a few repairs is all."
Dave and his brother Steve rolled up behind the Chevy. Both of them walked up and stood with Deborah and me in front of my house.
"Hi Mac," Dave said. "What do ya think Steve? He should burn it down, right?"
"Would save him a lot of money, I think," Steve answered.
Deborah giggled and advanced toward the door. She turned the knob and pushed on the door. Nothing happened. She pushed again. Still to no avail.
"So, how do you get it open?" She queried.
I stepped up and put my shoulder to the door and leaned into it. As per custom, it grated on the sill and swung in. I gestured in a wide sweep of my arm, bowing just slightly at the waist.
"Welcome to Utopia." I said.
"Somebody wake me up, quick!" Deborah murmured, stepping cautiously into the dank house. "I'm having a nightmare."
Dave and Steve were having a great time. It was quite obvious Deborah was not going to lighten up on me about the state of my digs any time soon and they were both standing there holding their sides as she expounded her dismay. All I could do was take the ribbing because she was absolutely right. The house had been totally neglected, since long before Maureen died, and was just about to collapse under its own weight.
"I think I can save her," Steve managed, hanging on to Dave's shoulder for support. "But it'll be a test."
"Fuck you guys," I said, following Deborah into the house.
Deborah stood with her hands on her hips just inside the front door. She scanned the inside of the main floor of the house and shook her head. She slowly made her way into the living room to the left and then back through the so called foyer into the dining area and back into the kitchen. Returning, she looked up the stairway where the bedrooms were and took a cautious journey up the stairs. I could hear her walking from room to room by the squeaking of the old floorboards. Then she returned to stand in front of me.
"This won't be easy," She said, her eyes twinkling. "But I'm gonna make you a deal."
"Whazzat?" I asked.
"I'll help you clean up this pig sty, then we go for a cruise on the boat." Her resolve was granite solid.
"I got a gig next weekend with Dave." I said.
"The boat won't be done before that, so you can't weasel out of it that way," She quipped. "But when she comes down off the rails, we sail. Deal?"
How could I refuse. The house was a disaster, after all. "Deal." I said.
Dave and Steve were standing behind us now. "It's gonna be a major undertaking," Steve entered the conversation.
"How long will it take?" I asked.
"All summer, depending," He said.
"On?" I asked.
"How much the termites have eaten over the years, and how much you want to fix it up." Steve said.
The decision came to me in a split second, like the revelation you get when you're playing kick-ass rock and roll and you throw a new chop into a lead you've been trying to get right and suddenly it happens. "Get it ready to sell. I'm going to move onto the boat with Skinny here after she hits the water." I said, just like that.
Deborah's face lit up like a Chinese lantern. "Really?" She gasped. "Oh how cool is that?"
"What about playing music?" Dave asked, dejectedly.
"I'm with ya on this gig, Old Buddy. Then I'm takin' some time off and see what's out there." I answered, waving my hand in the air. "And I think I got the right captain for this cruise."
Deborah was jumping up and down like a school girl and clapping her hands, gleefully. Her big boobs bouncing wildly under her tank-top. Steve and Dave were taking careful note of the action.
"Fuckin' guy has all the luck," Dave complained.
"No lie," Steve agreed.
--------
The next four days were a living hell around the house. Deborah was a whirlwind when it came to cleaning. I stayed pretty much out of her way for fear of bodily damage. Steve was taking careful aim at the outside of the place but promised he'd hold off on starting construction inside until after Deborah and I had moved onto the boat. I was scheduled to play with Dave and his new group on Friday and Saturday nights and Sunday afternoon in Saint Augustine.
It was Wednesday afternoon and it had been several days since I'd visited Caroline. I wasn't exactly horny, but Debbie was flouncing around the house in a bright yellow string bikini, busily working her way from room to room on her quest to remove the years of grime from everything in sight. Her hair was all askew, and she had smudges of dirt on her arms and face. I was in the kitchen when she appeared searching for a fresh sponge and some kind of cleaner for the shower stall. When she bent over and stuck her head under the sink, her beautiful tight butt jumped out right in front of me.
The thin strip of her yellow thong disappeared between her cheeks and divided the lips of her sweet pussy so they bulged invitingly on either side, making a perfect camel toe. I eased close behind her and placed a hand on each soft orb. I heard her squeak once but she didn't attempt to move away. She folded her arms on the edge of the sink top, laid her head on her arms and stepped back toward me.
Gently, and very slowly, I let my hand move down over her warm butt and slide underneath until I felt the soft folds of her outer petals. She shuffled her feet to the side, spreading her legs farther apart. Easing a finger under the thin patch of fabric covering her sex, I felt her wetness. My finger slipped inside with no resistance. I had to bend my knees a bit so I could push deeper into her.
I could hear her mumble something incoherent as I pushed a second finger into her. My knuckle must have raked across her clit, because she pushed way up on her tiptoes as a low moan escaped her lips. Then her thighs squeezed my hand for many seconds while she trembled on my hand.
"You got somthin' special on your mind, Sailor?" She gasped as her orgasm subsided.
"Don't move," I said.
I quickly dropped my shorts and stepped out of them. I found the bows on her hips, pulled gently and dropped the ends of the strings sending her tiny bikini bottom to the floor with my shorts. I grabbed my doo-dad with one hand, put my other hand in the small of her back, hunkered down and stepped forward, positioning myself carefully and invaded her drenched pussy.
She sucked in a huge lung full of air and hissed as we came together. She rocked forward. I held her firmly by the hips, picking her feet up a few inches off the floor. Then I started rocking into her slowly with long even strokes. Within moments, I erupted deep inside of her. Deborah flailed her legs as her second orgasm hit her just seconds after I started to fill her with hot cum. We stayed up there together for a long time, languishing in the aftermath of our quick fuck, before I lowered her feet back to the floor.
My deflating cock slipped out of her greasy cunt, followed by a thick glob of sticky white cum that plopped down on the floor between our feet.
Deborah, her head still resting on her folded arms, looked down and said, "I'm never going to get this place cleaned up if you insist on messing the floor up all the time!"
The laughter was priceless.
