This is my long-awaited sequel to "Remember This Moment Forever" which takes place ten years after the original story. What was originally intended to be one long story eventually grew so large that I decided to split it into four parts with a new story being posted at the end of each summer month (beginning with Part One in May and ending with Part Four in August). Each part is roughly the same length or even longer than "Remember", so you can understand my need to partition them. If you're looking for a quick fix in your erotica, this probably isn't the story for you. While there is plenty of sex (hopefully very hot sex, in your assessment), this primarily is a story of love, loss, longing, hope, and fulfillment. Just so prospective readers know what they're getting into, some of the tags for this individual story include lesbian sex, cunnilingus, anal sex, strapon sex, analingus, age-gap/mature sex, seduction, foot fetish, fisting, shaving, humiliation, coercion, blackmail, and drug use. If any of these subjects might offend you, I advise you to stop now before reading something that makes you uncomfortable and causes you to voice your displeasure all over the comment section. Without further ado, I am proud to present...

Make This Last Forever: Part One (of Four)
28
Dani gripped the steering wheel tightly between her fingers as her rental car raced down the highway. Though her driver's license remained valid, Dani hadn't operated a motor vehicle in years and she had been white-knuckling for most of this trip as she relearned how to drive. While driving. Despite her nervousness, Dani showed no sign of slowing and secretly she got a bit of a thrill from driving five miles over the speed limit. She was in no rush to arrive, but the cool spring air whipping around Dani's hair through an open car window was a feeling she hadn't experienced in far too long.
Rows of freshly planted corn blanketed the fields to either side of the highway; a sure sign that Dani neared her hometown. Fortunately, Dani had already passed the hog farms that comprised the other industry of this region; the stench had been overwhelmingly unpleasant. Dani glided along a curve in the road until her car directly faced the sun that hung suspended in the midpoint of the blue western sky. Dani pulled the sunglasses resting over the hair atop her scalp down over her eyes to shield herself from the glaring brightness of the sunlight.
Dani sang along to an old Velvet Underground song as she bounced her head to the beat. "There she goes again/She's out on the streets again/She's down on her knees, my friend/But you know she'll never ask you puh-leaze again." The song cut off just before the chorus started when a ringing noise reverberated from the speaker system. Someone had initiated a call to Dani's phone and activated the Bluetooth connection between Dani's smartphone and the rental car's stereo. The contacts on her phone had apparently not synced with the car correctly since Dani only saw a phone number on the viewscreen rather than a name to identify the caller.
Dani fumbled with the buttons on the steering wheel trying to locate the correct one to press that answered the phone call. The technology in these cars had progressed substantially since the last time Dani owned a vehicle and she was still unused to all of the bells and whistles of the modern car. The ringing noise continued incessantly as Dani started becoming flustered.
"I'm going, I'm going!" Dani yelled at her car. "Jesus, just give me a second!"
Being careful to keep her gaze on the road, Dani glanced down at the steering wheel and noticed a button with the icon of an old-fashioned telephone handpiece on it. She depressed the button with her thumb and answered the call.
"Dani Meadows here," she said as pleasantly as she could manage. "Who am I speaking to?"
"Dani? Hey, it's me, Betsy!" a female voice greeted through the speaker system. Betsy's voice sounded thin and tinny over the sound system but it was undeniably hers.
"Hey, Bets! How's it going?" Dani answered jubilantly.
"Oh, I can't complain," Betsy replied. "At least not when the weather is this nice in LA. Just thought I'd check in since we haven't spoken for two weeks. What are you up to?"
"Oh, just in the middle of driving right now," Dani answered absentmindedly as she watched the neverending farm scenery pass by.
"Driving?" Betsy asked inquisitively. "So you're actually going back? I thought you said the last time we spoke that you had decided against it."
"I changed my mind," Dani declared. "I'm going back home and attending my high school reunion and nothing will dissuade me."
"Are you sure that's the best idea?" Betsy said with uncertainty. "I'm worried you'll just get hurt all over again. I love you too much to want to see that happen."
"No, I really don't think it's the best idea and I'm sure you're right," Dani admitted. "But I'm still going. This might be the only chance I ever have to fix what has been broken."
"Are you staying with Her then?" Betsy said with no small amount of disdain. The way Betsy emphasized the pronoun left no doubt who she was referring to.
"Yes," Dani sighed. "It made the most sense. I had to take work off without pay so I could come down a day early. I'm not paying for a hotel room and meals on top of losing a day's pay at work. Besides, maybe Pamela and I can actually patch things up between us? I mean, a daughter can always hope."
"As long as you know what you're getting yourself into." Betsy said in a way that Dani knew she was frowning.
Dani could hear the palpable disapproval in Betsy's voice. Betsy already was starting to sound like Dani's mother rather than her future stepmom. She sometimes forgot that she was only six years older than Dani. Oh well, Dani loved her anyways. Certainly more than her actual mom.
