Summer 1973 had just begun, and Brandon Mathers had just graduated from high school. He was supposed to be out looking for a job, like he had promised his mother, but Brandon had discovered a hobby in recent days, a hobby that coincided with the arrival of the woman who moved into the house next door.

"Hello," Brandon chirped, his voice warbling like it had when it first began to change a couple of years back, but puberty was no longer the reason for that.
"Hello again," the woman said as she leaned against the handle of the push mower than she had been forcing through the high grass which was getting mowed for the first time this year. "Brandon, isn't it?"
"Yes ma'am," Brandon said, trying not to look at his new neighbor's body and concentrate on making eye contact instead, although the red tube top that held her cantaloupe-sized breasts made that very challenging indeed.
"I'm Carol, remember?" she asked in a playfully scolding manner, her voice with a distinctly Western twang.
"Oh yeah. Forgot," Brandon said, recalling their conversation of the day before when they had first met. "Sorry."
"It's a hot one today already," Brandon's neighbor said, wiping her brow with the back of her hand, and as she did Brandon's eyes went right to her unshaven armpit, the strawberry blonde hair pasted against her moist skin.
"I - uh," Brandon said, shifting the weight to hide his erection which was poking at the crotch of his shorts. "I could do that for you, if you want. Mow I mean."
"Oh?" Carol said, catching the look on her young neighbor's face when he looked under her arm, which he seemed to do a lot of in the several meetings they had enjoyed over the backyard fence since she moved in. "What would your mother say? You mowing my lawn? After all, yours could use a little attention too, right?"
"Uh, I can do ours anytime," Brandon said, knowing that after he got done talking he would be running upstairs to do what he had been doing almost non-stop since Carol Brown had moved in. "Kind of like a welcome to the neighborhood."
"Well, in that case," Carol said. "Be my guest."
"I'll be right over," Brandon said excitedly as he ran into the house and upstairs to his room.
"Oh man," Brandon groaned as he ran to his bedroom window while his shorts came down.
Brandon's cock was hard, as usual, and he was peeking through the blinds with one hand while yanking down his underwear with the other and looking for his neighbor.
"Come out wherever you are," Brandon said as he looked at the unattended mower and prayed for Carol to reappear. "Look what I've got for you."
Brandon didn't dare stroke his throbbing cock because he would orgasm instantly, so instead he stood motionless, his fingers squeezing the base of his member to hold off his ejaculation.
"There you are," Brandon said as he saw Carol come over to the fence and look up at his window.
It was almost as if she could see through the walls, but that didn't stop Brandon from cumming as his cock erupted all over the wall in front of him. As if the woman could tell what he was hoping for, she ran her hands through her hair as she looked up at him, those beautiful tits straining against the fabric as she gave Brandon an exquisite view to cum with.
"Shit!" Brandon muttered as he saw his semen drooling down the faded wallpaper, and as he cleaned up the mess he noticed that the wall was getting a lot cleaner in that spot, having been cleaned like this at least a dozen times this week already.

Brandon made quick work of his new neighbor's lawn, in part because her yard was so small and mostly surrounded by trees, which meant the grass didn't grow around the edges. The other reason for his speed was the fact that the neighbor wasn't out there distracting him. Without her to look at, Brandon was able to focus on the job at hand.
"Good work, Brandon," called out the voice from the back porch, and when Brandon squinted in the direction of the screened-in back porch he saw his neighbor Carol standing there. "Come on in and have a drink if you're done."
Brandon headed for the porch, which looked dark and cool, but his eyes were fixed on his neighbor. Carol had apparently taken a shower, because she looked cool and fresh. Her red tube top had been replaced with a lime green halter top which cradled her breasts and made them look bigger still, like eggplants instead of cantaloupes.
Carol had a pitcher of lemonade, and after pouring them both a glass half full, waved a bottle of Southern Comfort at Brandon.
"You want some?" Carol drawled. "Or will you get in trouble?"
"I can drink," Brandon said with some bravado, and when he saw Carol pour a generous amount in the glasses he swallowed hard, hoping he wouldn't get sick like he had the other time he drank.
"Here you go, partner," Carol said, going over to the Adirondack chair leaning against the wall of the house. "Pull up a chair and rest your ass."
Brandon sat down and took a sip, wincing at the strength of the drink, and his reaction drew a chuckle from his neighbor.
"Not much for kids to do around this neck of the woods, is there?" Carol asked.
"I'm not a kid," Brandon said with as much attitude as he could muster.
"What are you, 14?"
"Eighteen," Brandon said defiantly, even though he was used to being kidded about his boyish looks.
"That so?" Carol said, setting her drink down and raising her arms, grabbing the high back of the chair in her hands and stretching.
Brandon swallowed hard as he watched his new neighbor move in the chair, her actions causing her breasts to thrust out father as well as exposing the wild tufts of hair under her arms, which after her shower were now fluffy and soft looking.
"Am I grossing you out?" Carol asked, smiling as she nodded over to her armpit.
"NO!" Brandon said, feeling goofy about accidentally yelling his response. "I mean no. I think it's sexy. My girlfriend - ex-girlfriend I mean. She didn't shave her pits either."
"So you like that, I guess?" Carol surmised, and Brandon nodded his agreement. "She a hippie?"
"Sort of. Not really," Brandon said. "We don't have real hippies around here."
"Guess I'll be the first then," Carol responded.
"I thought hippies were - you know - kids," Brandon said.
"Not old ladies like me?" Carol said with a laugh. "Boy, you've got a way with words, don't you?"
"I didn't mean that," Brandon said, flushing at once again putting his foot in his mouth. "I'm not too good around pretty girls."
"Good comeback kid," Carol said, and then quickly corrected herself. "I mean Brandon. Well, I am old. I'm 44."
"My mother's 44," Brandon said.
