The summer had come to an end and I was in my final preparations for going to University, and I was excited to go and had my car packed up already. Finally I thought to myself as I had taken 4 years out of education to both work and travel a little. Having worked so hard in school to achieve the best grades I could, the break away from education was needed.
My name is Rowan and I recently celebrated my 22nd birthday, I am just your average looking guy. At about 5'10" and weighing around 90Kg, having played rugby and doing a lot of cycling in my youth, I still have a good physique even with a bit of a belly. I had been sporting a beard and long hair, inspired by the show called Sons of Anarchy but now am clean shaven and my hair is a lot neater.
Growing up, I was never the popular guy even though I did well on the rugby pitch but never really had the looks that the typical girls sought. I focused on studying and enjoyed my hobby of video gaming, probably having all the consoles out there and now a high power PC and a tablet laptop. Back to girls, I have only had one girlfriend and that relationship lasted all of 7 months and we hadn't really covered much area in the bedroom side of things.
All that aside, I was a happy albeit shy guy and was about to start the next phase of my life journey. I had secured a place in one of the countries top Universities and even luckier that my Fathers elder sister was a Professor of English there, and she had agreed to provide me with a roof over my head. She had sent me a letter that arrived a few days ago to explain some ground rules and to tell me that she was looking forward to having a housemate. It had been over 2 years since I last saw her in person, just before the country went into lockdown with Covid.
"Ro?" Hearing my Mother call up the stairs to me. "Rowan?"
"Coming down now Mum!" I glanced around my bedroom and was satisfied that I had everything, picking up my rucksack and slinging it over my shoulder and then grabbing the holdall by my feet.
I turned the light out and closed the door of my bedroom behind me as I made my way downstairs, my mother watching me with a smile on her face but with sadness in her eyes. I smiled at her and placed my bags down in the hall by the front door.
"All set dear?" She held her arms out and walked towards me, wrapping my arms around her waist as we embraced each other. "I can't believe you are finally going!"
"I will still come back and see you guys every now and then!" I held her firmly against my body, her warmth enveloped me and brought tears to my eyes. I sniffed.
"Oh, don't you start!" She spoke into my ear. "You will set me off too!"
My father walked into the hallway and then towards my mother and I, he put his arms around the both of us and squeezed. He was smiling.
"Hey Kiddo! Got everything you need?" He asked.
"I believe I have! Why do you look so happy?" I asked jokingly.
"Well, it is not everyday that your only child finally leaves the nest!" He emphasised the word 'finally' "I will be able to walk around the house naked again!"
"JIM!!" My mother almost jumped into the air, she turned and slapped my father on the shoulder. "Not in front of Ro!
He had pinched her arse, she had pressed her crotch into mine as she was startled by the action. I would be lying if I said that I hadn't felt slightly aroused by such an innocent thing. She was a beautiful woman but I never looked at her that way nor fantasised about her, she was my mother after all.
"You two need to get a room!" I said and then felt my mother slap me on the shoulder too.
"Rowan!" She smiled at me, her eyes glistening.
"The sooner you go Son, the sooner I can have a tumble with this gorgeous woman!" He tickled my mother just above the hips, she ran off giggling and stopped by the kitchen door.
"Jim enough already!"
"Come on then Son, let's get you on your way!" He picked up my holdall and opened the front door, I followed and then my mother came out after me with her arms wrapped around herself.
After the last of my bags were loaded, I turned to them both and sighed with a smile on my face before embracing them once more.
"Drive safe okay, Kiddo!" My father said with a stern expression on his face.
"And phone us when you get there!" My mother added.
"I will!" Walking to my open door, looking back at them both, "I love you guys!"
"Love you too!" They both replied in unison, holding each other with arms around their backs.
Climbing into my car, I smiled at them as I closed the door and fired up the engine. Putting it in gear and pulled off slowly and drove to the entrance of the driveway, looking in the rear view mirror I could see my mother bury her face into my father's chest. I swallowed the lump in my throat and pulled out onto the road and tooted my horn several times. Wiping my eyes, I turned my music up and began my 3 hour drive to my aunt's house.

Daylight was fading quickly as I drove slowly along the road that my aunt's house was supposed to be on, even with my headlights on I found it hard to see any numbers. Reaching the end of the road, I began to turn my car around when I noticed a brass plaque on a gate post belonging to the last house on the road. Stepping out of my car and walking up to inspect the plaque, I smiled when I saw our family name written on it and then peered up the driveway before returning to the car. As the light from my headlights moved across the front of the grand building, a light came on behind the front door and then a large lamp above the front door came to life. Pulling up next to her car, I stopped the engine and closed my eyes momentarily.
My aunt was now standing at the top of the steps with her arms folded across her chest and she had a big smile on her face, all of a sudden I had butterflies in my stomach. Stepping out of my car and closing the door, I looked towards her and smiled back and closed the door behind me. Deciding to come back for my stuff later, I walked up the steps towards her, I had forgotten what she looked like and was taken back by how beautiful she was for a woman her age.
"Hello my darling sweet boy!" She held her arms wide, waiting for me to join her.
"Hello aunty Hilary, it is good to see you again!" Putting my arms around her, we hugged briefly. It was a nice hug and I could have stayed in the moment for some time, the butterflies returned.
"Let me take a look at you!" She moved me away from her body at arms length and looked me up and down, she looked back into my eyes over the rim of her glasses and smiled. "You have turned into quite a handsome man Rowan, bet the ladies are hot on your heels!"
"If only aunt Hilary!" I laughed nervously. "I don't have much luck at all to be honest but I am okay with it! I have my studies to focus on anyway!"
"True, you never know though!" She placed her hand on my cheek. "She could be right under your nose my dear boy!""
I didn't have any reason to think more of those words she said to me, but they had had an impact on my subconscious because I was looking at her in a different light than I used to. I simply dismissed the thoughts, there were no grounds for me to think of them as anything but innocent. I just blushed at her.
"Come on, are you hungry? What about your bags? Shall we bring them in now?" She blurted out the questions in a single breath.
"I could eat!" Turning to my car. "My stuff can wait!"
"Very well, follow me then." She turned and began walking through the front door and I followed.
Aunt Hilary was 17 years older than my father, the story is that my grandparents thought they were past being able to have children but apparently they were wrong. They had been so happy about it because they had had several failed pregnancies and both science and our health surface was not as advanced as it was now, albeit the NHS was a shadow of its former self. So, my aunt could literally be my grandmother! She was roughly the same height as me, with her low heels on. She had been a brunette but she was now silvery gray in colour, curly and just above her shoulders in length. Her face was pretty, a few light wrinkles at her eyes but they were not that noticeable when she wore her glasses, which she had perched on her nose.
As we walked down the hall, I took the time to study her body and watch her as she walked. She was fairly slim for her age, her breasts were not that big and I wouldn't have been able to guess their size anyway. Her waistline was slim and her hips widened quite a bit, she did have a sizable arse and her legs had a nice shape to them. I couldn't really see much else for the outfit she had on. She was wearing low heels, natural tights under a skirt that came just below the knees. She wore a cashmere jumper over a shirt with tiny flowers. She had a lovely gait, walking with purpose and her footfall firm. The scent of her perfume caught my attention as she walked, I would have to ask her about it.
"I took the liberty of preparing a light dinner, thinking you might need something after your drive!"
"Thank you." I said.
