Foreword
These stories are based in Australia and written in the idiom the characters would use.
I know from previous comments many readers have enjoyed that very aspect of it. Some issues in language variations I anticipated and built translations into my narrative. Others -- especially on this site - have caught me by surprise especially in their intensity.
Crutch/crotch has caused an awful lot of hassle. But the Macquarie Dictionary defines a mean of crutch as "the crotch of the human body". "Crutch" is most commonly used in Australia and to our (my) ears, crotch has a much harsher (unintended) tone.
"Boardies" are board shorts and "Speedos" men's racing swimwear briefs.
If your normal meaning doesn't fit, apply the intuitive one in the context of the story.
Story
If you've been following the story of Karen and Greg in the "First Summer" series then you'll have been introduced to Kate.
She and her intimate historic friendship with Greg will play a big part of future stories.
In the mean time, Kate has her own tales to tell...
I'm not sure what it was made me turn my head. It wasn't a sound, not even a movement caught out of the corner of my eye. More an instinct.
One minute I'm talking to Greg and his new girlfriend at what I suppose you'd call a beach party organised by some of our mutual friends to celebrate us all being back in town for the summer break. I'm still getting used to the idea of this girl of Greg's let alone to the fact I know he's rooting her silly every chance he gets. I just can't look at Greg in the same way when all I can really picture is him getting down and dirty with her.
She's nice enough and we were quickly becoming good friends, but selfish and insecure as it makes me seem, I just wished she wasn't as drop dead gorgeous in that cutesy sort of way. I might not have any claim on him. But seeing Greg fall so heavily for a girl had been shattering; more so when the overt sexuality on display with the perpetual camel toe in her bikini pants and nips pushing out of the small triangles of her top reminded me so vividly of what they're getting up to in all the beach hiding spots Greg and I have grown up playing in.
But whatever it was that made me turn my head, the next minute my eyes are transfixed by the sight of this guy joining the far side of our party's circle of friends. If this was your typical bodice ripper romance novel I'd be talking of love at first sight across a crowded room. But it's not. And it's not so much that I don't believe in love as I'm chronically incapable of falling into it. Indeed, I run away from it.
Still, in that moment I decided this guy and I are going to end up in bed together. Even though I'm on the far side of the crowed group from where this guy is entering, his eyes met mine and they all locked together. Whatever effect he was having on me it seemed to be mutual.
He wasn't a local; rather it looked like he'd been dragged into our party by John, one of our friends.
He was clearly fresh out of the surf, his wet boardies clinging in a way that left nothing to the imagination.
Ah, yes. Squared jawed, nice body. Tall. Good muscle definition without overdoing it; surfer not body builder. His resting face seemed to be a nice smile; as if the world shone upon him. After our initial tussle for Greg's affections, Karen and I had only bonded a week ago, but already she had been bold enough to label my choice of men Neanderthals. Personally I always imagined Neanderthals with an excess of body hair. But if a Neanderthal was given a full body wax and a good bit of grooming, then OK, maybe that's what one might look like.
The next half an hour is remembered as a bit of a blur. All I can really recall is that he somehow made a beeline across the group to me, John introduced Chris as someone at his Uni, and that moments later Chris and I have somehow cast off John, Greg and Karen and are now engrossed in each other's conversation. Shortly after that we've got our arms wrapped around each other passionately kissing as we sway to the music permeating our senses to the exclusion of the hub bub of the party conversation.
Maybe it was at that point I should have picked up some hint that this guy was different from my usual Neanderthal pick up. As we're dancing -- if you could call our amorous swaying that -- the lower part of his body is separated from mine. Most guys by now would have their thigh between my legs.
Instinctively my hand slid down towards the curve of his lower back, a gradually increasing pressure drawing his stomach and hips towards mine. As the still damp material of his boardies first made contact with the bare flesh of my stomach just above the waist hem of my bikini pants a strange sense of satisfaction accompanied the discovery they contained the hard shaft of an erection.
Again it's now a bit of a blur how we escaped the party and ended up back at the two bedroom holiday unit he was sharing with a mate; one who was fortunately absent. If you think all this blurring of memory is somehow caused by too many party beverages, you're wrong. I was on my first glass of wine when he walked in and our lips hadn't been separated long enough to drink anything more than that since. If I was intoxicated, it wasn't by drink.
While still unusually entranced by the power this guy's presence is having over me, it's about now I really started to realise the script of this encounter isn't going entirely to the normal pattern. We were doing little more than pashing for nearly an hour at the party. By the end I had my crutch pleasurably rubbing against his thigh and his erection pushing deeply into the flesh of my stomach
Maybe the immediacy of our passions might have subsided just a little during the five minutes it took to get back to his place. But we'd been in the unit for another fifteen minutes and by that time he'd offered me a drink and guided us both the a lounge chair where we were sitting in close contact while he had an arm around my shoulders and engaged me in conversation.
I didn't want to look like a complete slut. I was waiting for him to make the first move; my most provocative action at this point being the hand I had on his thigh high enough to be brushing against one of his balls and the fact one of my nipples was seriously in danger of sliding out of the bikini top I was wearing.
With any other guy I would have been getting the "I really want to stick my dick in you now" signal and be lucky if the beach wrap still around my hips wasn't on the floor and any of the strings on the string tie bikini I was wearing still had a knot in it. And yet this guy is just talking. Nice. Entertaining. Even seductive. Maybe it's the way romance is meant to be conducted. Just not what I was used to.
I decide to step it up just a little and bend around and start kissing him again. He received my tongue into his mouth willingly; the arm furthest from me wrapping itself around my back, the hand slipping along the line of the lower tie of my bikini top.
Looking down I could see the top of his erection struggling to escape from his boardies. Nothing is actually visible, but the waist band is starting to be pulled away from his stomach as it fights to retain the shaft now clearly outlined within the thin clingy material. My other hand is on the far side of his waist, the forearm pressed against his stomach passing teasingly close to the tip of his erection.
Ten minutes later and we're still just kissing. Completely enjoyable. I'm fully on heat again. Half the width of the bell at the top of his shaft now can be seen down the front of his pants as my eyes twist themselves to look down. I can even see some drips of pre-cum oozing out of the now visible hole at the top. But nothing's happening. Once or twice the hand around my back slides under the tie string of my bikini top and I even think he might undo the knot. But no. I'm still fully dressed; nothing truly erogenous so much as touched. It's all there ready; engorged, open, throbbing, wet and waiting. But nothing.
I slid my hand down the front of his pants, the back of my fingers firmly in contact with the length of his shaft. The middle finger was slimed as his pre-cum wiped against it as I slid it down. At last he brought his hand around and sliped it inside my bikini top; quickly finding the nipple; hardly surprising since it was now big and hard enough you could have found it in the dark with a blindfold and wearing welders gloves. He rubs it gently between two fingers with a nice technique.
By angling his hand out he uncovered most of the breast; pushing the triangle of the bikini aside.
At last he seems to have taken the hint as I feel the strings of my bikini top being pulled by the hand he originally had around my shoulders until the one playing with the nipple flicks it deftly away to let it fall down onto the chair.
Breaking free of our kissing, he buries himself in my bosom and licks and sucks both nipples, leaving me staring at the top of his mop of blonde, surf bleached hair as I enjoy the arousing effect of his oral games with them.
Then we're back kissing again, his fingers again on my nipples.
This is all quite nice. Indeed his nipple play is so nice I even wonder if you can have a nipple orgasm. But again we're stalled at that.
My hand had been stroking up and down on his stomach and pubis; playing with his pubic hair and in the process the back of my fingers had been stimulating his shaft. It was rock hard, surging a little and the top was becoming slippery with his pre-cum. I realised I needed to take the lead again, so turned my hand around and grabbed his shaft, slid up to the tip of it, pulled my hand out, undid the draw string of his pants, pulled the waist wide open and exposed him.
Then I wrapped my fingers around it again, stimulating it up and down.
At last he seemed to realise this is meant to be full on. He undid the side knot on my wrap and pulled it away from me to throw on the floor, then his fingers pushed in against the already damp crutch of my bikini bottoms, sliding the length of the valley he created; loitering momentarily to feel my opening before moving up to play up and down against my clit.
Finally he slid his hand over the top of the waist band and down into my pants, quickly finding direct contact with my clit and expertly fingering it. Unlike most guys he concentrated more on my clit instead of wanting to just penetrate me with his fingers; only penetrating me occasionally to slime up his fingers for better lubrication. It felt great.
It was time for the question. "Do you have a condom?"
