Lara turned the corner and pulled into the driveway, then she shut the engine off. It had been a long drive over to the desert, but it had been enjoyable. She hadn't really seen this kind of landscape before and she was fascinated with the red rocks and majestic buttes.
She got out of the car and got her bag from the back seat. She had been asked by her friends to baby sit the house for a couple of weeks because they were going on vacation to Hawaii. They were actually paying her, so she was very happy with the arrangement.
She walked towards the house, a large, one level rambler with a pool in the back. She was going to be living it up while her friends were gone, but there weren't going to be a lot of people there. She had brought plenty of reading material and her laptop, so she wasn't really going to get too bored.
She knocked on the door and her friends, Sally and Don, were there to greet her.
"Hey, Lara," said Sally, a big smile on her face. "You look fabulous! Thank you so much for easing our minds about the house when we're gone." They hugged. Sally was beautiful, with large breasts and black hair. Don was very handsome, wearing a silk shirt and nice pleated pants.
"Don't be silly. I see this as a vacation from where I live. I'm going to have fun, and you should too. I'm going to swim in your pool and drink some wine and read. It's going to be great." She grinned, looking around.
"Well, thank you again, anyway." Sally paused. "Now, I should tell you that our son Kyle will show up eventually. He's almost 19 and he hangs out with friends a lot, so he doesn't always come home every night. That's why we need someone here around the clock. You can leave and go shopping, of course, but being here overnight gives us a much better sense of security."
"I see," Lara said. "What's he all about, if you don't mind me asking"?
"Well, he's super nice. And very talented. He plays guitar very well. He doesn't listen to rap music or anything loud. We were very thankful for that. He has long hair and, well, he's beautiful, physically. I'm not saying that just because he's my son -- he just is. He's between girlfriends right now, so he's kind of into party mode, I guess. He smokes a little weed, but he's not too into alcohol. He takes care of the pool for the most part, and we're happy about that as well. That's probably where you'll see him first." She leaned towards Lara, touching her arm. "He told us he likes to skinny dip when we're gone, so... be prepared. If he read my texts he'll probably wear some clothes, but you can just ignore that unless you decide to swim when he's out there." She laughed, eyes twinkling.
Lara laughed, saying "I can handle it. I've seen a naked man. I've got plenty to keep me busy, but if he's nice we'll probably do some talking. If he's your son he's bound to be super intelligent, too. I'm so tired of dull people."
"Yes, he's very entertaining, but he's also quiet a lot of the time. He's got something that's burdening him, but we think he just needs time to work it out. You know, teen issues."
Don butted in now, saying, "I know what I was thinking about when I was his age, so we hope he finds a girl friend soon." They all laughed.
They had a beautiful dinner and some wine, then went for a late swim. It was around 90, so the water felt delicious. Lara climbed out of the pool and sat in a lounger, squeezing the water out of her long, brown hair. She sighed. This was going to be great, she thought, looking up at the stars.
In the morning they had breakfast, then the luggage was loaded into the car. Lara drove them to the airport, hugging and saying goodbye as they left.
"Lara, just enjoy yourself," Sally said, then she turned as Don ambled off, saying, "and remember, no guilt. Use the sauna, drink our booze, watch the TV... and get to know Kyle. I think he needs a friend." She had a funny look in her eye, but Lara dismissed it and said goodbye. Then they were gone.
She drove back to the house, which took over an hour. She opened the door, closed it, then walked to the pool. No one was around, so she took off her clothes and jumped in, naked and free. She surfaced and spit out a little water, her breasts bobbing around in front of her, nipples hard in the cool water. She hung out next to the ladder for a while, eyes closed as she cooled down, then she pulled herself out, grabbing a towel as she walked towards the house, breasts jiggling.
Lara was almost 40, and by anyone's standards, she was very good looking. She had kept herself up and hadn't gotten heavy -- in fact, her rear was her finest asset. Apparently her husband hadn't thought so, so she was single again. But he was a classic philanderer. She was faithful, but naive, a trait which she hoped to remedy, but sex between them was marred by his alcohol consumption. She liked a few glasses of wine on occasion, but she could also go without. To make a long story short, she was in limbo, but was also enjoying her freedom. She'd dated, had fun, moved along, and kept herself entertained. The house-sitting job was just another item in her 'entertainment package'.
In the house, she found her bag and got out a silk blouse and some clean underwear. Then she poured herself a glass of wine and sat down in front of the TV, going through the channels. She found a movie she thought she'd like, then drew her legs up underneath herself and became engrossed in the plot. Soon, she drifted off right there for a couple of hours before retiring to the guest bedroom for the night.
The next morning she had breakfast, then took a walk into the desert around the house. There were lots of cactus and other plants and the morning was starting to heat up as she walked between the cholla bushes.
She decided that it was time to head back and start her new book this morning when she noticed a car had appeared in the drive. She walked a little faster and was soon back at the house. She went in, going into the den, then she looked out at the pool. There was someone in the water and she guessed that it was Sally's son, Kyle. He had long, dark blonde hair. She watched him swim for a while, anticipating meeting him when he got out. He was indeed a beautiful man and she felt like a voyeur as she watched him. Soon, he swam to the ladder and slowly climbed up, standing on the last rung as the water dripped off of him.
Lara's mouth dropped open a bit. He was completely naked. Yes, she'd seen naked men and boys, lots of them, but Sally hadn't prepared her for what she was now looking at. Kyle had a huge penis, possibly eight inches long. And it was fat and uncircumcised. The head was a plum shaped knob under the skin of his prepuce. It rang all of her bells as she gazed at him. Then she felt embarrassed, looking away, then going into the guest bedroom for a while until he came back into the house. She waited until she heard the door shut, then she walked into the living room, calling his name.
Kyle came out of the kitchen now, wearing a towel.
"Oh, wow. You're.... Lara, right? I forgot that my mom hired a house sitter. I'm Kyle." He held out his hand and they shook.
"I hope.... well, I was swimming out there, for a while, and..." His face turned red.
"I was taking a nap," Lara said, "And it's your house, for heavens sake. It's all good."
"Excellent," he said, relieved. "I just take off my clothes and jump in when no one is around, so I don't want to make you uncomfortable in any way. Mom says you're super nice and I should treat you like gold." He smiled. "So I will."
He now looked at her, saying, "Hey, I'm going to cook us dinner tonight. A chicken and some pasta. Would you like that? It's easy, and I like to cook. Is that appealing to you"?
"Yes, yes it is," she said with a laugh. "I can help, or I can watch. I'm pretty hungry, that's for sure."
"Well, I'll get started," he said, moving back into the kitchen and grabbing the utensils and pans that he'd need. Then he stood, looking down at the towel he still wore.
"I'm being kind of stupid. Let me go put on some clothes."
