Saturday morning finally arrived, and nobody was moving very fast. Rich and I both slept in until almost 10am. I chalked it up to the combination of the intense sex from yesterday and the fact that my mind and body knew I was on vacation. If felt wonderful, and I could have cared less that my original timeline for departure was shot.
We enjoyed coffee on the patio and then finished off the rest of the leftovers for brunch. By noon we had finished packing everything up and were ready to go. I rode with Rich in his suburban, while Jenna rode with Dylan in his truck. Mandy and Trevor would meet us further on down the road.
Surprisingly the traffic was light, and we made good time. About an hour into the trip, Rich said, "You seem unusually quiet, Jackie. What's on your mind?"
I hadn't told Rich yet about the incident with Collin the day before. The "incident". That's how I was referring to it in my mind. But in reality it was just another episode of Jackie McMurray spreading her legs wide to take another cock inside her. Knowing that I owed Rich a response, I shook those thoughts off and said, "I need to tell you something... it will probably make you smile and laugh, but..."
"But it is something you'll spend the next week beating yourself up over."
I looked at him and said, "Yes... wait... how did you know that?"
He sighed and smiled, then said, "Because I know you, Jackie. Ok, let's have it, who did you sleep with now?"
"Why would you think it has something to do with sex?"
"Because most of the time when you get like this, it's because you had sex with someone and are embarrassed about it. Which, to be honest, I don't understand. We've talked about this so many times, by now you should know how I feel."
I sighed and said, "I know, I know. You are so good to me, Rich. Thank you for being so loving and supportive of me, and for being so understanding."
He smiled and nodded, then said, "So... who was it?"
I looked down at the floor and said, "When I went to drop off our keys and instructions with Terri, she wasn't home, but Collin was."
"Her oldest son, right?"
"Yes."
I thought for a minute and said, "Honestly, Rich, I assumed I'd be saying a quick hi to Terri and then would come right back home. So I didn't bother to get dressed. All I had on was the sundress I threw on after the shower. I didn't bother with makeup or hair, and didn't bother to put on a bra or underwear. And by the time I found out Terri wasn't going to be there, I was already on their doorstep ringing the doorbell."
Rich nodded, then said, "And I bet you looked absolutely gorgeous to Collin, standing there in just the dress."
"I guess I did. He let me in, and I tried to go over all the instructions with him, but... it was just... he was only wearing a pair of shorts, and he looked really good, and... I could tell he was interested, it was all over his face... and..."
Rich smiled and quietly laughed.
"What? Why is that funny?"
"It's not funny, Jackie; it's hot. Really hot. If I was Collin, and the hottest woman in town was standing next to me in just a sundress, I'd react the same way. And I'm glad he finally got to experience what it's like to be with you."
I thought for a moment and said, "Wait... what did you mean when you said he 'finally' got to experience me?"
Rich thought for a moment, then said, "Jackie, you're so clueless sometimes. I can't even begin to count the number of times we've had neighborhood parties and I've watched Collin and his brother check you out. Ted does it all the time, and so do most of the other men in the neighborhood. So do some of the women, including Terri."
"What? What do you mean?"
"Ugh. Open your eyes, woman. You are genuinely, certifiably gorgeous. And the way you dress and present yourself is extremely appealing. I know for a fact Ted and some of the other men in the neighborhood would love to be with you. So I'm not surprised Collin reacted the way he did. And I'll be honest, I'm thrilled he got to be with you."
We rode in silence for a few minutes, and then I said, "So I'm just supposed to be the... neighborhood slut? Fuck everyone on our street?"
"That would be a very hot scenario, but no, Jackie. That's not what I'm saying. I'm just telling you what I've observed over the years. You can be with whoever you want to be, whenever you want to. And if that means you enjoy some kinky encounters with our neighbors, I'm totally ok with that.
"And for the record, since we're being honest here, there are a few women in the neighborhood I'd love to fuck, Terri being one of them. The Ramirez family two houses down, I'd love to fuck Maribel and her daughter... what's her name again?"
"Her name is Tori, and she literally just turned 18 a few weeks ago, you pervert."
"Well, she's smoking hot. She has an absolutely magnificent ass. And it's good to know she's legal now."
I started to protest but Rich held up a hand and said, "Stop, Jackie. Stop. Fuck. You make things so hard sometimes. Just fucking relax, please. Just because I want to fuck them doesn't mean I'm actively trying to, or even would if the opportunity presented itself. I'm just being honest with you, to help you understand what goes on inside the mind of a man. You should know all this by now."
I looked out the window, too upset to answer. And yet amid the angry thoughts swirling in my head, I knew Rich was correct. I knew how the male mind worked. I knew many men found me desirable. And I had seen the looks many men had given me, Ted and his sons, included.
And more importantly, Rich was correct. I did need to relax, let go, unwind.
I turned to him and said, "I'm sorry. Please forgive me. I realize I'm way too stressed and just need to relax."
