Please read When We Were Young Ch. 15 and this will make a lot more sense.
Special thanks to kenjisato for the editing, whom I cannot recommend enough.
Comments would really be appreciated.

Thea drove us home from the bowling alley, while Mar and I sat in the back and I filled Linda in on my day, Mar shaking her head and grinning.
"Put me on speaker, honey. I have news for you and Mar."
"Okay, go ahead."
"After the meeting yesterday, and after you left, Sharon and I took Carmen and Alex out for dinner. Alex and I are getting along well and had a nice time. She and Carmen are really into each other but are trying hard not to show it. Anyway, we invited them back to the house and sat down to watch a movie.
"It was about eight when Sharon excused herself to go help Rich get ready for work today, which he said went well, by the way, and I said I had some phone calls to make and excused myself.
"I didn't hear anything from them and went to bed. I woke up at about one and couldn't go back to sleep, so I took a blanket, went out front, and sat on the porch swing, wishing I was there with you. I had almost nodded off when the front door opened and Alex walked out, holding her shoes...and her bra."
"NO!" Mar said.
Lin giggled. "Yep. She jumped when she saw me, then the guiltiest blush you've ever seen spread across her face. She started stammering, trying to come up with an explanation, and I started laughing.
"She giggled and sat down next to me and we talked for a few minutes. She talks about Carmen like you talk about Mama, Mar. I don't think she realizes just how into her she really is. It's pretty cute.
"This morning, Carmen came up and sat down next to me. 'So, I understand you busted us last night,' she said to me. I told her how happy we were for her and that the bedroom downstairs was available to them whenever they wanted it.
"Alex took the day off work, and I helped Carmen get a picnic basket together, and they spent the day down by the lake. Carmen said they had a nice day getting to know each other better.
"Anyway, I thought you would want to know they finally got together, and it looks like they're a match."
"I'm so happy for them," Mar said. "I really like them both."
"Tone, tell Jazz and Thea I miss them, please."
"We miss, too, Mees Leenda!" Jazz hollered from the front seat.
Linda laughed, and she and I talked a little longer, then said goodnight.

Miss Ruth and Cal were back from the state fair, their test run in the bus a success.
She and I spent the morning in her office, going through several things I needed to know how to handle when they were gone, then she led me downstairs, where Jazz, Thea, Mama, and Cal were just finishing packing the golf carts with food and drink (Mar was at her grad school interview).
Up to the hilltop we went, spreading out on blankets under the huge shade trees, looking out over the 'Hills'. We ate and drank, talking and laughing. Afterward, Miss Ruth took my hand and we walked over to the ledge, where she rested her head on my shoulder, my arm around her.
"I love this place," she said quietly, more to herself than to me.
"It's not too late to change your mind."
"No, it's time to move on, honey. I do have a request, though."
"Anything."
"When I die, I'm going to be cremated, and I want my ashes spread up here, Anthony, just like my father's were, and my mother's before that. Okay?"
"Of course, Miss Ruth. I didn't realize they were up here. It would be an honor, ma'am," I said, kissing the top of her head.
"Thank you, Anthony. Cal and I are anxious to get on the road and start exploring, but this is home, where I belong. I want whatever part of me is in those ashes to always be here."
We stood there quietly for a moment, Miss Ruth absently rubbing my arm, lost in thought.
Behind me, I heard Mama moan, softly. We turned around to see who caused it, to find Cal on his knees with his muscular back and ass to us, cock buried in Thea, doggy-style. Thea, meanwhile, had her head between Mama's spread legs, who lay on her back. Jazz lay on top of Mama in a sixty-nine, helping Thea pleasure Mama.
I smiled and hugged Miss Ruth a little tighter.
"Cal and I visited Grandma Eleanor yesterday," she said, changing topics.
"Yeah? How, uh, did that go?" I asked, nervously.
"What a sweet lady. We took her to lunch, and she told me a lot of things about your dad I didn't know, and we talked about you, of course. She loves her grandbabies, and you especially."
"She's great, though I was always a little afraid of her growing up, for some reason. But now that I know about Grandpa and how difficult his life was, their life, I feel like I finally know her a little. Is there anything she needs, do you think? Anything I could give her?"
"I asked her, and she said she has everything she needs, which I think is true. She just wants to be around long enough to come to your wedding and hold your babies. Something we have in common," she said, kissing my arm.
"We hope so, too, Miss Ruth."
Mama's loud moan punctured the quiet, followed several seconds later by Thea's low, rumbling 'Fuuck'.
Miss Ruth's hand slipped into my pocket, searching, finding, fondling.
"Did you, uh, tell her, uh, well..."
"About us fucking?"
I blushed, hard. "Uh, yeah."
Miss Ruth grinned. "Oh, she knew, Anthony. She may really be psychic. She asked me, 'How is my grandbaby in bed, what does he like?'
"I told her about your big cock, how hard you get licking away our sweat, your cute little grunt when you cum, and how good your seed tastes."
"Jesus," I said, quietly, my cock hardening at the embarrassment...and the fondling.
