The drive was going to be a long one out of state to visit a Nephew's family after the birth of a son two months earlier. I'd been planning the visit for over two months when there was a telephone call from my cousin asking if she could ride with me.
Joy is nearly five years older than me and I'm forty-one. She looks better than most girls I've known that were fifteen years younger and I've always thought she is amazing. Six years earlier she'd divorced her cheating, no-good husband. They'd never had any kids and I'd always known he was a rotten individual so I was happy for her.
I thought it would be great to have company on the drive and what could be better than having my very sexy cousin as a drive companion? We decided to each schedule a vacation and then leave early in the middle of the following week. The time I'd pick her up was set at five Tuesday morning. It seemed we each had vacation to cover the trip and we didn't work the same company. Her company was eighteen miles away and mine was four miles the opposite direction from my own place.
I hadn't see Joy in nearly two years and it had been that way since I'd graduated University years earlier. We'd usually see each other on family get-togethers but this time after talking with her on the phone and agreeing to pick her up that following week I began private thinking of her again.
I'd always had a 'family crush' on Joy since as early as my memory could recall. When I first hit puberty and learned more about girls I'd had many personal moments thinking about her and imagining her naked wanting me. I really didn't learn what incest was until years later and so I tried to stop thinking of her that way but it didn't work because she still popped into my head and nearly every one of my sexual fantasies even these years later.
I pulled into her place on schedule then carried her luggage to the car after we'd hugged and said hello.
She reminded me that she intended to share the driving on our trip and had packed a lunch for us on the road.
I opened the car door for her and watched as she settled in before closing the door. She wore shorts for comfort as we would be crossing the desert for hours. She also wore a halter that was loosely tied between her breasts and its looseness aroused my interest to fresh new heights.
After I'd gotten on the road I asked if she'd had breakfast and she shook her head and said she hadn't been hungry. I insisted and pulled into a fast food line and ordered breakfast to go.
On the highway she said "You should have worn shorts too. It will be hot."
I motioned to the car's air-conditioning and she reminded me that there was a very long stretch that was a heavy upgrade and to keep from overheating I should leave the AC off while on the grade. She was right.
I had some old CD's and turned on the player then listened to the music that had been popular as I'd started High School. She remembered the tunes too and we sang together for the first two hundred miles.
It was about eleven fifteen that morning and I'd been constantly distracted by her legs, cleavage and the tightness of her shorts.
She caught me looking several times but said nothing; however she did smile each time that I knew I'd been caught.
"Why haven't you ever married?" she finally asked me.
I glanced over at her and my eyes swept her body again as I tried to think of an answer.
Then I turned the question around and asked her why she hadn't remarried since her divorce.
There seemed a long awkward pause that must have lasted more than five minutes while she stared straight ahead. I was almost ready try an answer when she spoke up instead.
"In one more year we'd have been married for twenty years. It was the longest period in my life and I was unhappy. A woman gets married for a host of reasons and some more serious than others. I'd married expecting something special and it had never happened. I grew tired of waiting and when I found that he'd apparently found it with another woman I couldn't take it." she began.
"Are we talking about sex?" I asked teasingly but she wasn't teasing and after another long pause she looked over at me and said "What would you expect and grow tired without?"
"I don't know but I can't imagine him not wanting you and doing all he could for you." I answered feeling inadequate in my response to her.
She then poked my arm and said "How long since you last had sex?"
"I don't know but probably three or more years." I answered growing red in the face.
"Well for me it was an average of only once every month or two since we made our vows and now with time since the divorce it's been more than eight years for me." she stuttered.
Now I felt like an idiot for bringing it all up for her again.
"Before we were married I'd only ever been with two guys and that wasn't real sex since it only included what I did for them." she added.
"You mean hand stroking them?" I asked dumbfounded.
"Well... that and oral sex." she blushed.
"You mean you sucked them?" I stumbled in response.
"Yes. I was trying to get them excited but I've never been able to excite any of the men I've been with including my Ex." she continued "besides I enjoyed oral sex except they didn't have what I really wanted."
"You've only ever done it twice?" I asked and she laughed then said "I said only two guys not just two times."
"How about with your Ex?" I laughed and asked with my eyes locked to the road even though I knew if she looked she could tell what condition I was in.
"Him?" she laughed. "His is smaller than either of the other two I mentioned and they weren't really man-sized. My Ex might wanted it that way maybe once a year that first five years but no more than once and I wanted it more. I tried to convince him but it never worked out."
"So what did you want and have you ever found it?" I asked timidly.
"I wanted something a lot more developed. Can I tell you a story about something that really happened?" she asked as she picked up the GPS unit I'd brought with us to make certain I was getting the shortest route to our destination. She began playing with it as she started her story.
"I was traveling for work when I found out you were finishing Graduate School and I couldn't get there for your Graduation ceremony. I also found that you were planning on living at home with your folks for a month so when I got home I drove over to say hello and congratulate you. It was a Wednesday morning about nine when I pulled into your folk's driveway and I parked behind your old car.
"I walked to the front door and rang the bell three times and when nobody answered I thought perhaps the bell wasn't working so I knocked and still got no answer. I knew your folks were at work and I had no idea where you might be so I walked back to my car but as I started to get in I heard a noise from out back.
"I was curious and walked along the driveway to the back gate but it was locked and yet I heard that same noise again. I peeked through that space between your gate and the fence and I saw you. You were swimming completely naked and that isn't all I saw.
