I had just gotten home from work and changed into something a bit more practical when a Facebook message popped up from my nephew, Oliver.
"Hey Aunt Janet, hope you are doing well. I got a package from my Mom today full of Christmas stuff. She sent a few things for you; is there a good time I could drop them off at your place?"
Interesting I thought, Oliver's mom had been married to my ex-husband's older brother. They'd been divorced for years, but she was a wonderful person and we'd always gotten along, despite her rather contentious divorce. And, if I was being honest Oliver was my favorite nephew. I'd only been 16 when he was born, and he was my first real experience with a baby. Then he'd grown up to be an amazing young man, 23 now, out of college, on his own. I shook myself, no sense thinking about all that. I didn't want to get all maudlin about my first Christmas alone, recently divorced with a daughter spending her holiday on a cruise with her father.
I shook myself, took a deep breath and typed out a reply.
"When is convenient for you? I'll be home this evening, but if you have a hot date tomorrow would be fine too."
I went into the kitchen, set the phone down and started to make dinner. I glanced over and was surprised to see a reply.
"I'm free tonight, no hot date. But I don't think I have your address. βΉ"
I tapped my address in, then hesitated before hitting send. He'd probably say no anyway, but it felt wrong not to make the offer, and it would be nice to see him and catch up a little.
After the address I added, "I was making dinner. It will be ready in an hour or so, if you haven't eaten and want to join me."
A response came back almost instantly, "see you then."
I hurried to get dinner going, then ducked back into my bedroom. The oversized t-shirt and shorts came off and got tossed into the laundry hamper. I stopped in front of the mirror on the closet door, in my boring white bra and, dare I say it, granny panties. I couldn't quite put a finger on why, but they joined the other clothes in the hamper. I looked good for 39 I thought, I gave my breasts a squeeze. My friends in high school with smaller breast had teased me that they'd be down at my ankles when I got older, but time had proven them wrong. They might not be quite as firm as they had been back then, but they still attracted a lot of male attention.
With that thought warming my heart I started going through the closet. What to wear I thought. There was the answer I realized, hiding in the back of my closet. I had bought the dress because the company had a "50s" themed day at work to celebrate our 50th anniversary. It had never entirely made sense because the company had been founded in the late 60s. I figured they just didn't want anyone wearing some weird 60s stuff. It was a light pink flower print, tight around the bust, but only showing a hint of cleavage. It stayed tight down to the flared skirt. It accentuated my curves without being risquΓ©. I placed it on the bed and started looking through my lingerie drawer.
An almost transparent pink lace bra and panties, and some beige, lace top thigh highs completed the look. I dressed, checked my hair and makeup, then went back to the kitchen.
Dinner was just about ready when the doorbell rang. I opened it to find Oliver peering at me over the pile of boxes in his arms.
"Well hello stranger," I said, stepping out of the way and beckoning for him to enter. He stepped out of the cold and I closed the door behind him.
"Let's put those under the tree."
I escorted him to the living room, and he placed the gifts under the tree. He stood up and smiled at me, I could feel his eyes roaming over me.
"Good to see you," he paused for a moment, "that's a really pretty dress."
"Ohh, thank you, got home from work today, got distracted and sort of forgot to change," I lied.
"If the girls in my office dressed like that, I'd never get anything done."
"I'm sure you'd manage, now let me have your coat."
He handed it to me, and it was my turn to look him over. He was a bit over 6 feet tall, still had the broad shoulders and chest from his days on the swim team. Short cropped black hair, and those lovely green eyes.
"Still swimming?" I asked.
"Whenever I get the chance, little harder to come by pool time lately."
I set his coat over the back of the love seat, "hungry?"
"For your cooking? Always. I was tempted to ask if you had made any of your chocolate chip cookies. They are the BEST."
"Kind of you to say so, I might be able to whip up a batch tomorrow, if you want to stop back by."
"Really?" he asked, with a bit more interest than I would have expected.
"Of course, anything for my favorite nephew."
"Anything?"
"Well, anything within reason," I said giving him a little wink.
"Now, let's eat," I continued, "I'm starving."
Dinner went quickly, and I felt a little strange offering him a glass of wine, and even stranger watching him drink it as we ate. He caught me up on his life, and what his Mom was up to. I really did need to call her I thought. I had a conference down in New Orleans in the fall and we really should get together. But he seemed, a bit different. He didn't have that seem easy confidence he'd always seemed to have. There was a nervousness about him I wasn't used to seeing.
I looked up and realized he was staring at me.
"Sorry, bit of wool gathering there."
He smiled, that crooked smile of his I'd always adored.
"Want seconds?" I asked.
"I'm stuffed."
I got up and started to clear the table. He helped and we made short work of it.
"I've got something for you too, I'll be right back."
I headed to the spare bedroom that was currently serving as my Christmas bunker and found the gifts I had gotten for him and his siblings. He was waiting just inside the living room as I came back down the hall, and he stepped into my path, stopping me at the edge of the hall. He took the three packages out of my hands, setting them aside. I could feel his nervousness, then he pointed up over my head.
"Christmas tradition," he said with a smile.
I looked up and discovered a sprig of mistletoe taped to the ceiling.
I couldn't help but laugh, "Pretty sure that wasn't there a few minutes ago."
"It must be a Christmas miracle, but 'tis the Season..."
"That it is, and I am all about the traditions," I said gesturing towards the tree I had set up thinking no one else would ever see it.
He bent down and I turned my head a little to the side, expecting a peck on the cheek. He shifted, his lips met mine, and his strong hand was on the back of head. Not holding me, not forcing me, but encouraging? Maybe that was it some part of my brain realized. I felt his lips opening, the kiss changing from something innocent to something more. I followed his lead, my lips opening as well, our tongues meeting. His other arm was around me now, pulling me against him, and my arms went around him. Feeling his strong young body though his shirt.
Finally, he broke the kiss, still holding me, he looked into my eyes, "God, I've wanted to do that for a long time."
I hesitated, not sure how to respond, strange emotions running though my body, then I decided.
"Is that all you wanted to do?"
I saw a hint of panic in his eyes, but he rallied.
"No, no it isn't."
"What else did you want?"
I stepped back a little, his arms falling to his side, smiling at him. His eyes roamed over my body, then fixed on my breasts. My smile broadened, and I brought my hands to my breasts, "You want to see them, don't you?"
"Yes, yes I do."
"I thought you might," I turned slowly, "Unzip me."
I felt his strong hands on me again, one resting lightly on my shoulder as the other took hold of the zipper and started to pull it down. He stopped halfway down.
"All the way, Olliver."
He finished and I turned back to face him. I slipped the straps off my shoulders and let the dress fall to the floor. His eyes were fixed on my bra now. I could hear his breathing quicken. I reached back, unhooked the clasp, and removed the bra. I tossed it aside, then took hold of his hands, bringing them up, placing them on my breasts.
"I know you didn't just want to look, did you?"
"No," he stammered, his hands began energetically exploring them, stroking and squeezing, then he leaned in, and his mouth found my nipple. I cradled his head against me. Closing my eyes and enjoying the sensations. He shifted, mouth exploring the other breast now. As good as it felt, I wanted more, I gently pushed his head away, and he stood a disappointed expression on his face. I grabbed the bottom of his shirt and started lifting it, he pulled it over his head, and it joined my bra on the floor. I took his hand and led him down the hall to my bedroom. I stopped him short of the bed, and quickly removed his pants and boxers. Pausing to admire his nice hard cock, wondering if I should tell him the last time I saw it I was changing his diaper.
