The Greatest Love
Even before opening his eyes, Reid broke into a big grin with his first thought of the day. He'd never again have to lie to his buddies about getting laid. It was bad enough when he was eighteen, but he'd never live it down if he admitted to still being a virgin at twenty years old, especially being in the Navy. If he was to believe all the stories, every man on the USS
California
had at least two beautiful women in every port.
His grin turned into a small chuckle as he listened to the cute, soft way she snored. He'd never heard a woman snore before. As he inhaled, he caught a hint of her fragrance. Reid opened his eyes and glanced at the white ceiling; his grin got even wider. It was true, he was in her apartment and the naked body snuggled against his own belonged to the most beautiful girl he'd ever seen.
It was so hard to believe. All his life, he'd been very shy around girls. He knew being a virgin was his own fault. He wasn't bad looking and he was relatively smart, he simply lacked the confidence to even try getting a girl, well, up until the night before, anyway.
He had to take another look... just to be sure. Reid lowered his chin until it gently touched her long, silky black hair. Leilani had her head resting in the nook of his shoulder with her arm stretched across his chest. Ever so carefully, so as not to disturb her, Reid leaned in and lightly kissed her forehead, then closed his eyes again and pondered how good life had been since joining the Navy.
Against his parent's wishes, he enlisted right after high school. He didn't do it to hurt them, but they had babied him his whole life, and it was time to become a man. He loved the sea, so the Navy was a no-brainer. Through sheer determination, he scored well all through boot camp and was assigned to the USS
California
, where he had reached the rank of seaman, 1rst class.
As a young man from a small town in Indiana, never did Reid think he'd ever see so much of the world. His ship had been involved with various training missions in the South Pacific and the West Coast. He loved San Francisco, but this... this was heaven. Just a few months prior, President Roosevelt made Pearl Harbor their permanent home base. He loved his parents, but he wondered how he could ever go back to Indiana after experiencing life in paradise.
He felt Leilani stir. He opened his eyes and looked down into her smiling face. He still found it hard to believe he was in bed with such a beautiful woman.
"Ummmmm," she cooed, "good morning." She strained her head toward his with pursed lips. He met her halfway with a good morning kiss. "Did you sleep okay?"
"Like a log," he replied.
"Me too, I think we wore each other out last night."
She rolled against him and reached over. "Oh my, I could be wrong," she said, feeling the stiff shaft of tightly stretched skin. "Something tells me you kind of like me."
With his dick still in her hand, he did the man's version of a kegel exercise and caused the head of his cock to nod yes. Leilani caught on immediately and playfully slapped his shoulder with a laugh. "Well, I kind of like you too. Now brace yourself because going to hop on and go for a ride," she said swinging one leg over and centering the piece of meat she had in her hand.
Reid closed his eyes and arched his back as the warm sweet pussy slipped gently down his aching flesh. She put both hands on his chest and smiled into his sky-blue eyes while rocking back and forth. He felt so good. He was the perfect size and hard as nails. She smiled at the tiny groans of pleasure he emitted every time she pushed back, taking him all the way inside, right down to his balls. It only took a few minutes for Reid to feel he was getting close.
"Leilani, I..." he was interrupted by another pleasurable groan, "I'm going to come. I'm not wearing a condom."
"It's okay. I'm a couple weeks away from ovulating. Don't hold back, baby, I want to feel it."
He wasn't even sure what ovulating meant but it sounded good anyway. She felt a hard push as he bucked his hip in the air. His whole body went stiff and he heard his beautiful lover scream in unison as they together for the fourth time in six hours.
They spent the next twenty minutes catching their breath and cuddling together. Leilani found herself wanting to spend as much time as she could with him. "What time do you have to be back?" she asked.
"I have a weekend pass," he replied. "I don't have to be back on the ship until eighteen hundred hours, tomorrow."
"Oh, good, any special plans for today?"
"No, not really, most of the time, I spend liberty on the ship reading a book."
"Wow, that sounds exciting," she joked.
Leilani had dated quite a few sailors; living close to Pearl didn't give her many options. Most were just good-time-Charlies out to get laid. She was certainly no prude, so if she liked a guy he got lucky, but she had to like him.
She liked Reid the moment she laid eyes on him. He stood out in the crowd, not in a flashy way, just the opposite; while everyone around him was loud, half in the bag and making a general nuisance of themselves, Reid was in control, maybe even a little shy; she liked that.
Rarely did she ever ask anyone to dance, but there was something about the sandy blond-haired man that just drew her attention. Maybe it was his penetrating blue eyes, she thought, but it was more than that. He had a shy charisma about him. He was delightfully different than anyone else she'd dated.
After several dances and a couple of drinks, she'd made up her mind they would wake up in her bed together. That's when she discovered the true nature of his shyness; she had to practically knock him over the head and drag him to her apartment, which made him even more charming.
