Part Five
Oh, Mrs. Holder
Thanks to Todger 65 for the edit.

I stumbled after Mrs. Holder to the kitchen, trying to keep my over sized shorts from slipping off, swearing under my breath. Mrs. Holder prattled on and on in her high class Connecticut accent. I always thought she talked too much.
"You know, it really is a miracle with the skin cream," she said, going through the cupboards. "You must tell me which doctor prescribed it? I have a nephew with a severe acne problem, and he would love your cream," she stopped and blushed.
"What's she embarrassed about?"
I thought, then went over what she said,
"Oh!"
I kind of giggled at that. Mrs. Holder paused a moment, then chuckled as well. "That didn't come out the way I wanted."
"It was kind of funny, coming from you," I replied.
She turned from the cupboard. "And just what is that supposed to mean?" Her eyebrow was cocked and she had a slight smile. It made me nervous for some reason.
"Well . . . um . . . well . . . well . . . uh . . . you don't really seem, uh . . . humorous." Actually, I wanted to say something other than "humorous" but loose seemed a little offensive and fun didn't quite describe it.
She looked at me with a sly crook on her mouth. "Well Toby, you might be surprised at what I find funny." We stared at each other for a second or so. The kitchen was quiet and a little small, it felt, and then she said, "Your shorts slipped again," and turned back to the cupboard.
"Oh!" I think I blushed, and went to hitch them up, only when I looked down I saw a large bulge in them. I thought,
"Oh shit! Did she see that?! Fuck! She did! God! I'm so fucking embarrassed!"
The thing was, at the time, I couldn't tell if my boner came from the shorts or Mrs. Holder. I had problems, obviously, with my sensitive skin and fabric, but then there was Mrs. Holder in the kitchen and, well, she was kind of hot. I mean . . . Mrs. Holder was always hot. A lot of the guys called her a MILF but her priggishness was kind of a turn off. I remember one of the guys saying, "God, she'd be fuckable if she weren't so . . . Protestant." And her daughter, Sara, got her looks and some of her priggishness but I heard from someone she was actually a tease. I emphasize was. What happened between me and her since . . . well, I'm getting ahead of myself again.
I'm going to digress for a bit and say I know a lot of things about a lot of people. When you look the way I used to and you're ignored, always, people talk around you. I learned early on to listen. You pick up some crazy things when you're invisible. The stories I heard . . . some of the people I knew since I was a kid. I know a lot more now. I kind of wish I didn't but I kind of like that I know too.
"Butter, a little honey, I'd use aloe but it looks like you don't have any. Nana said mint extract makes a good substitute."
Butter? Mint extract? It sounded more like a recipe for frosting than anti-itching cream. "Um, Mrs. Holder, I'm not sure . . ."
"Really Toby, don't be nervous. It works, really." Mrs. Holder put the butter, extract, and honey into the blender and mixed it into a paste. Then she scooped it into a mixing bowl and came to me.
I was standing by the table, kind of nervous, not knowing why. She'd been in the house dozens of times but usually with Mom. She was like my aunt. I guess being half naked, trying to hide an erection, and keep my shorts from sliding off had a lot to do with it.
Mrs. Holder, when she came near, stopped with a thoughtful look, "Uh, the kitchen is not a good place to try this. Why don't we go to the patio out back?"
"Um, er." I wasn't thinking very well at the moment. I was also kind of aware of a smell. It wasn't really strong, more like a whiff, sort of perfumy. The smell was familiar. I didn't get it at first, but then I realized it was the sandalwood/pine smell from the alienslug's shit, only it came from me.
"Shit! I smell like alien shit! Fuck! Does she know?!"
"Toby, your face is red. Is something the matter?"
"Oh! Er! Um! Uh, no Mrs. Holder. It's just . . . well . . . um, maybe I should do this myself. It's kind of awkward . . ."
"Ah! Well, yes I can see how it looks," Mrs. Holder agreed. "Well . . . let's see. Toby, I used to be a nurse. I worked with lots of patients, many of them in various states of undress. So it's no real trouble to see you like this. At least under these circumstances. If it's awkward for you, though . . ."
Now, when she said that, I started to say, "Uh yes," 'cause I really thought it was awkward, strange, unusual, and just plain weird; but then a little voice in my head said, "Whoa there fella. Let's see where this goes," and that was strange 'cause I never heard that voice before. It was not one of those weird schizo voices. I didn't know what it was; opportunity maybe? So I said, "I guess not. I just thought it would be awkward for you."
"Oh nonsense! Shall we go?"
Looking back, I don't know if what happened afterward was because of my changes, or maybe Mrs. Holder had a hidden agenda. She could have spread her "home remedy" on me in the kitchen, see? While I was standing up, instead of lying down on the patio . . . where no one could see us.
I don't know. Maybe the idea came to her when she saw me in nothing but those shorts. But I think, maybe, while she might have started the whole thing, the rest was more me than her. Certainly, right now, because of what we've done many times, she's more than Mrs. Holder to me.
I guess I'll have to describe how it started in detail, but I have to tell you I'm not boasting, even though most guys my age would shit themselves with envy.
We got a towel. We went to the back patio. I spread it and laid, I mean lay down on my stomach. Mrs. Holder put the bowl down and knelt beside me. My face was turned away, resting on my arms. I was very aware of my erection. It wasn't so prominent lying on my belly but against the wood floor, it felt uncomfortable. Plus, the way my shorts rode around my waist, or not at all actually, left a lot of my butt crack visible.
"So," she said, "I guess we're ready then? Just relax, Toby. It works, promise."
It didn't work, at least the way it was supposed to. The instant her fingers touched my back, it was like a thousand feathers dropped on me, all tickling. I went "Marp!" and jerked a little.
"Is something the matter?"
"Um, nothing Mrs. Holder. You're just a little ticklish, that's all."
"Oh? Well, how does this feel?" she played her fingers across my back.
"Hee! Hee! Narf! Mrs. Holder!" I was a bit annoyed and exasperated, not to mention embarrassed. Here I was, half naked, squirming, with a throbbing cock, and a hot MILF was tickling my back. Moreover, the squirming was causing my shorts to slide down, exposing more of my ass. I would have been more embarrassed but I think I reached a saturation point. Besides, a part of me was actually thrilled. I didn't know it at the time. I just realized it right now.
"Sorry," Mrs. Holder laughed. "I couldn't resist."
She started to spread the paste across my back. I squirmed some more, trying to keep from giggling, but she didn't tell me to keep still. As she spread the paste, though, her fingers grew less ticklish. "I think it's working Mrs. Holder."
"Of course," she said. "Mom always knew the best remedies."
I never knew why the paste worked. Maybe it was the mint. I can't say my skin was numb or anything. It was still a bit sensitive but not in a bad way. I was aware, very aware, of Mrs. Holder's fingers on the back of my neck, my shoulders, down my back, to just above my crack. It felt good; I felt good, if nervous.
"You know, Toby, you have the softest skin? I've never felt skin this soft," Mrs. Holder was nearly whispering, almost like she was talking to herself.
I didn't know what to say. It was hard enough trying to deal with an erection. I think I had precum on my shorts.
"Your skin cream really did its work. I don't see a single blemish on you, and you smell great. Is that the skin cream?"
I'd ignored my alien shit smell, what with Mrs. Holder's fingers and all, but now I was aware my sandalwood-pine smell was kind of intense. I didn't want to tell her she was smelling alien shit so I just said, "I guess so."
"Well, you must tell me what kind. Maybe it's on the market. Whew! Is it getting warmer?"
