Candace and the Frat Boys (Chapter 7)
Kathryn M. Burke
The bedroom Josh used to occupy was still empty, so he settled Mona and himself there, placing her on the bed and then slipping into it himself. He figured a little chaste cuddling wouldn't do any harm, so he held her in his arms as she almost fell asleep on top of him.
But she did manage to say, "You know, Josh, I could have gone on a bit longer."
"Oh, Mona," he cried, "you looked so tired! Like a flower that's been plucked and then thrown aside!"
She smiled at that. "I'm not quite so delicate as you and my daughter seem to think. I'veâ" She cut herself off abruptly.
Josh instinctively sensed what she had planned to say, although he could hardly believe it. "Youâyou've done this before?"
Maybe decades ago?
"No, not exactly," she said carefully.
"Butâmaybe two? Two at a time?"
It took Mona a full minute to say, "Yes."
Even this admission stunned Josh into momentarily silence. At last he said, "Was it before you were married?"
"Yes, of course."
"Wasâwas Frank involved?"
"He was."
"Who was the other guy?"
Mona lifted up her head and gazed into Josh's face. "I'm going to tell you something I've never told anyone, not even Candace. I hope you respect my privacy and keep this to yourself."
"Of course." He was itching to know the truth.
Mona heaved a sigh. "I first got involved with Frank during senior year of college. At the time his best friend was a guy named CurtisâCurtis Mayhew, as I recall. He was something of a playboy and seemed to like boasting of his 'conquests' with womenâclaimed to have slept with dozens, even hundreds of girls over his college career. I'm not sure I believed that, but clearly he had an eye for female flesh. And yet, I couldn't help liking himâhe seemed more like a mischievous little scamp rather than any kind of predator. Anyway, there was no shortage of women ready to bed down with him. Even though Boston College is a Jesuit school, that doesn't mean we students didn't like sex! Quite the opposite, in fact: it was clear that a lot of the students had grown up in somewhat repressed Catholic families, and this was the first time they were aloneâand in the presence of lots of other members of the opposite sex.
"Anyway, almost from the moment Frank and I began to go out, Curtis seemed fixated on meâand so he made the outrageous suggestion that Frank should let him 'have a taste of me'! Under ordinary circumstances, this might have been something that would have led Frank to punch a guy in the faceâbut Curtis was such an infectiously genial fellow that we just passed it off as 'Curtis being Curtis.' We really didn't take it seriously.
"But Curtis kept on pressing, and pretty soon we found out that he really did mean it seriously. Of course, the idea that I would sleep with him was absurd; I liked him, but I wasn't that sort of girl, and I'd certainly never betray Frank by doing it behind his back.
"Then Curtis came up with another ideaâa threesome.
"Here too, at first we just dismissed this idea as ludicrous. But remember, this was the mid-1970s, and things were pretty crazy thenâwife-swapping, orgies, that sort of thing. So Curtis's suggestion wasn't all that far-fetched. And I could tell that, although Frank had initially ridiculed the idea, he was constantly thinking about it.
"Finally, just before our midterm exams that spring semester, Frank came out and said: 'Say, Mona, would it really be so bad if we did it?'
"I tried to put off the matter by saying, 'Did what, dear?'
"'You know,' he said, obviously uncomfortable. 'What Curtis wants.'
"I remember just closing my eyes and feeling my heart drop to the pit of my stomach. Somehow I knew this day would come. Both Frank and I had been among those whose families had been fairly prudish where sex was concernedâand that made us both ashamed at the idea of such an irregular practice but also secretly enticed by it. And given that a new wave of feminism was taking off at the time, I felt that the very notion was disgraceful and degradingâbut, from another perspective, it could be considered liberating. A nose-thumbing of monogamy and bourgeois convention!
"And so we agreed to it.
"All three of us were having to stick around campus during spring break, since we all had work we needed to get done. The idea that other classmates were gallivanting off to Florida or wherever to have fun while we were stuck in chilly Boston hitting the booksâthat may have contributed to our decision. We wanted to have a
little
fun, after all!
"We decided to do it on Saturday night, the day after our last midterm exams. We actually went out to dinner, but I for one didn't say much: it was pretty unnerving how Curtis was looking me over every chance he got, as if he were saying, 'Gee, I can't wait to get access to your body!' He wanted to start right after dinner was over, but we managed to put him off for an hour or so. Not good to jump into bed on a full stomach!
"But finally Curtis just couldn't control himself, and right in the middle of a conversation at our apartment (Frank and I had moved in together in a cheap place near campus) he just started undressing, in the middle of the living room. Frank gave me this sheepish smile and stripped to his underwearâthen, with a kind of nervous defiance, took his briefs off also. So here were two guys, totally naked and with erections that were growing by the minute; and all I could do was sit and watch.
"I let out a sigh and said, 'I'm not doing this out here. I'll meet you guys in the bedroom.' And I marched off to our tiny bedroom. There, I got my skirt and blouse and socks off and was standing in my bra and panties when Frank and Curtis marched in. Their hard-ons seemed immense to me, although probably they were only about six or seven inches each. But remember, I'd never seen two cocks at the same time before! I just gaped at them, and Frank had to come over and take off my underwearâwhich he did with a kind of silent apology.
"Naturally, they wanted me to get on my knees and suck them, just for foreplay. I rolled my eyes at the idea of being in such a submissive position, but that was what was expected of me, so I obliged. I started with Frank, but Curtis was all but hitting my cheek with his cock, he was so anxious for this first actual sexual contact with me; so I gave him an exasperated look and stuck his thing in my mouth. He expelled this immense sigh, as if he'd just entered heaven, and actually began thrusting into my mouth, holding my head with both of his hands. I didn't like thatâhe sometimes went in too far, causing me to gagâand I pulled away from him and gave him an angry look.
"But he didn't care. This cocksucking lasted only a few minutes, because Curtis was in such a hurry to get to the next stage of the proceedings. No one really knew exactly what we were supposed to do, but it became clear that Curtis wanted to get into my vagina in the worst way. So, while I lay on my back and Frank lay down next to me, kissing me and squeezing my breasts, Frank squatted between my legsâand watched himself enter me. I saw his eyes fixated on his own cock as it went in, inch by inch, and I have to confess I was tickled by the look of radiant ecstasy that dawned on his face as he gazed at the culmination of this months-long fantasy of getting into my pants.
