Friday is my bowling night. I go straight from work and grab a bite at the pizza place next to the bowling alley. Afterwards, I go out for a few beers with the guys. I don't usually get home till after midnight. Most of the time, Darlene is in bed and asleep by then. The Friday after her first visit with Kyle, Darlene wasn't asleep.
That night, I staggered in about 1:00 AM. There were lights on in the living room. I went in and found Darlene reclining on the couch in a skimpy nightgown that barely covered her tiny thong panties. I stood in the doorway looking down at her near-naked body so elegantly displayed. Even in my foggy state, I knew something was up, and I was ready for it.
"Hi," she said, in a soft, low voice, a strange expression clouding her pretty face.
I started to sober up. "Hi," I tentatively replied.
"Why don't you bring in a couple beers," she suggested with a weak smile that couldn't mask her seriousness. I did just that. Eagerly thinking of what Darlene might have been up to and where it might lead, I hustled out to the kitchen, grabbed the beers, and brought them back out to the living room. I sat beside her, but not too close because she was leaning back against the arm of the couch with her legs up. She took a sip of the beer, looked up, and said the words I was half-expecting, half-fearing, half-hoping to hear: "I saw Kyle tonight."
Prepared as I was, it was like the shock of icy water around my lungs. I couldn't say anything for a minute. Then I said: "How was he?" not meaning it the way she took it, but glad it came out that way. She stammered for a moment. "Oh, you mean - how is he healing?" she finally asked.
"Yeah that ..." I looked steadily at her, "... and how was your visit?
She glowed with a softness and sexuality that put a charge in my balls and brought my dick to attention. "Well, the bones are knitting nicely," she said, "but he's still pretty tender down there."
This time, I smiled at her double meaning. I said, "Tell me about it."
Darlene had bought take-out at the deli just down the block from Kyle's place and took it up to his apartment. She claims she hadn't meant it to be anything more than a charitable visit to the sick, and for awhile, they both kept up that fiction. They had a nice dinner, talking like old buddies about Joe and the shop and the other mechanics - the politics of the place. Kyle had a bottle of wine, which they shared. Neither of them brought up the blow job she had given him on her previous visit, although I doubt that either of them could think of much else.
Darlene pulled a small table and a straight-back chair over to Kyle's bedside for their little meal. He was still encased in the big awkward plastic brace, but he could sit partially upright in the hospital bed. He was wearing a T-shirt, and his lower body was covered by a sheet -- and probably, Darlene thought, by nothing else.
When they finished the sandwiches, Darlene cleaned up and pushed the table out of the way. That's when she realized that they didn't need to bring up the subject of the blow job; it had already brought up Kyle. There was a noticeable tent in his sheet. She found herself staring at it hungrily, and then flushed with embarrassment when Kyle saw where her eyes were focused. She looked away in flustered confusion.
He smiled shyly. "I ... I wanted to thank you again for what you did for me the other day. It meant a lot to me, and it really helped me keep my spirits up."
Darlene was too filled with conflicting emotions to know what to say. "You're welcome," was all she could mumble, still glancing involuntarily at the bulge in the sheet. It seemed to throb with a life of its own, and all she could think of was that big thick pink rod she had held in her hand - and in her mouth.
Kyle said he felt bad because it was all for him. He wished he could return the pleasure she had given him. He looked into her eyes. That was just the way he felt about sex -- that it should be a mutual thing, and didn't she think so too?
Darlene tore her eyes from Kyle's pulsing bulge and nodded in agreement, not quite sure what she was saying.
