I've always been a loner of sorts. And ugly. Growing up I never had girlfriends, and even in college it was rare for me to snag a date on my own. Most of my dates were blind dates arranged by one of my buddies. It didn't help that I'd not grown up around girls and really didn't know how to talk to them, felt awkward and intimidated, so I mostly just sat there quietly.
Not much changed after college except that I got a job a long ways away from home. I did start working out at a gym a good bit and actually got into pretty darn good physical condition. Not a body builder or anything, just solid, slimmed down and fit. I also got used to talking to the women in the office were I worked. They were all older than me and enjoyed saying things that would make me blush or squirm. As the months stretched into years I got comfortable with just about anything they talked about, and talking to them, too. There was never anything going on between me and any of them, just some open flirting now and then to ease the stress of the work, but at the end of the day all of them said goodbye and headed home to their husbands and kids.
I've always been an outdoors type, too. Hunting, fishing, hiking, and lately into landscape and nature photography. I spend most of my open weekends in the woods in pursuit of one or more of those hobbies, and most of my vacation time is spent likewise.
One of those trips was earlier this past autumn. We'd been through a crunch time at work and I'd put in tons of extra hours making sure our final work was spot on. The management took note, gave us all a bonus for good work accomplished, and I was even given an extra week or so off. My boss knew how I wanted to be in high woods of the mountains in autumn for the leaf change, so off I went.
I made my base camp on a Sunday afternoon at a campground right off one of the main backwoods routes through some of the highest and most spectacular forests in the region. That time of year the roads and campgrounds are usually crawling with tourists, people wanting to enjoy the crispness of the autumn air in the high country, and enjoy the long range vistas of fall color across the mountain ridges. But, as I suspected, nearly everyone was cleared out by late on Sunday, returning to their hometowns for the beginning of the workweek. I always tent camp, and found the site selection to be to my choosing. Indeed, there were only a handful of other tenters sticking around, and I found a spot well away from the others. There were a dozen or so big RV rigs parked in another section of the campground, but from where I was they may as well have been in another world.
I got camp set up, had hauled in some firewood and built a small fire just to chase the chill away, and was cooking up some supper just before dark when I noticed a woman walking along the loop road past my site. As I looked up she paused, smiled and waved, I waved back, and she just stood there for a moment. She looked to be about my mother's age, maybe late 50's or early 60's, but in good shape. Her hair seemed gray in the fading light, and had a pleasant face. I also noticed that in the chill of the evening her nipples were clearly evident under her lightweight shirt. She smiled wider, then walked on. I watched as she strode away, and noticed that her legs and ass looked firm, like she was used to walking and regular exercise.
The next morning dawned bright but with a bit of chill in the air. It felt great, but after the summer heat the flannel shirt felt good too. I decided to grab a shower before getting anything to eat, so I slipped on some shorts and sandals, grabbed my towel, and headed out to the showers. This campground had two unisex bathhouses for campers and I headed to the nearest one to my site. The trail headed in the general direction of the RV section and was shared by the tent crowd in my area as well as any RVer's that wanted to use them. The bathhouse was small with only three private stalls inside. I was really surprised when I walked in that someone was already in one of the private stalls. They had the hot water steaming and there was a fog through the house. I took the adjacent stall, closed the door, stripped and got my own hot water going. With the two showers making copious amounts of fog, the whole place was soon filled, and warming up, too.
The other person finished before me and I thought they'd gone since I didn't hear any noises in the place. I cracked my door open a couple of inches to let some steam out while I toweled off. When I pulled the towel off from drying my hair I looked up to see someone just outside my shower door. It startled me a bit, I covered my groin with my towel and reached to pull the door shut. Still, no sounds from anyone.
I dried off, pulled on my shorts, shirt and sandals, and stepped out from the shower stall. I fully expected to find myself alone but found the same woman I'd seen the evening before. She was sitting in her shower stall, door wide open, with a bathrobe on. She was rubbing lotion on her arms and legs, looked up at me, smiled and spoke.
"I didn't mean to startle you. You're a very nice looking young man, and I couldn't resist a peek. Please forgive me." At that she held out her hand to shake. I had to step partially into her stall to take her hand, and replied.
"It was my fault, I shouldn't have opened the door. I thought I was the only one here. Sorry."
"Oh, don't be sorry, I rather enjoyed what I saw!" and again her smile grew. As I was reaching for her hand she held it higher for me, and when she did my eyes shot to the front of her robe. I apparently wasn't tied and when she raised her arm a bit the front pulled open a little further, with the separation going down a little further. It was very clear that she didn't have on a bra or shirt under the robe, and the deep cleavage between what must have been ample breasts was drawing my eyes like a magnet.
I tried not to stare, but the woman must have sensed my inability to look away, and obviously liked the control it had over me. She held my hand in that position for a long pause before dropping and speaking again.
"I'm Maggie. And you are?"
"Oh, yes ma'am, I'm Derrick." I was having a hard time keeping my eyes away from her chest, and she made no effort to cover herself. Oh, and I forgot to say that I'm always in some state of being horny, and seeing her cleavage was giving me a hard on.
