âThat was Rod Stewartâs, âDo You Think Iâm Sexy,â as we round out another hour of âRolling with the Oldies.â More sounds of the past in a moment. First, as the clock strikes 7, hereâs the news, weather and traffic with newscaster Linda Crawley.â
Damn! I had forgotten to shut the freaking alarm, and this was my first day off, too, between school and work, in nearly two weeks. Hell, why shouldnât I have a day off? Washington had a day off on his birthday, didnât he? And I was so far gone into dreamland, none of the planes flying overhead from the airport nearby had dazed me for an instant.
Oh, as the tingling and itching sensations in my vaginal walls reminded me, what a wonderful land of dreams it had been, too.
Being ravaged and raped by the likes of Madonna, Meg Ryan, Joan Jett and a gang of female pirates apparently had brought enough juices flowing to form a wet spot the size of Lake Superior on the silk sheets Tawny and I used for this special occasion.
The worst pirate of them all, I laughingly thought, was the honey blonde cuffed to the headboard beside me. This âprivateerâ had stolen my virginity with that plastic dong of hers, and stolen my heart with her own heart of pure gold. This âbuccaneerâ was hardly a buck, though.
And, no, Rod, I donât think you or any other male is sexy, not after comparing you to the Sapphic sophisticate beside me. She was the love of my life, and a teenage beauty queen whom I had loved all of my life.
Of course, when she first held me in her arms, it was the way your motherâs sister holds her newborn niece. The first kisses she gave me were chaste. They were the harmless little pecks on the cheek or the forehead she would give whenever she visited visit my mom, my two brothers and me.
The woman I called âAunt Tawnyâ was hardly the vixen who would suck my tongue so deeply into her mouth, and hold onto it with all of her might with her own tongue and her teeth. She was like a âhuman Hoover,â the way she drew in every ounce of air from inside my throat.
No, those first kisses were hardly the way she kissed me most of the time since I came to live with her as I studied for my Bachelors in Psychology at the University of Syracuse. We had spent three years together, and I even gave my mother reason to let me stay by attending summer school to graduate one year early.
To me, Tawny was Venus incarnate, the proof that goddesses of sex, love and beauty indeed walked the planet Earth, as did her nearly identical twin, my mother. This Sleeping Beauty may have had her share of Prince Charmings before I came along, but, since our love bloomed into a nearly marital state, I was proud that no Prince Charming could compete with Princess Delight.
âGood morning, my angel,â I whispered as I leaned my hand over her smooth, shapely side to hold onto her left breast.
I just gently stroked it, my palm then resting over the areole. I had no desire to totally awaken this woman I held in my arms from her joys of la-la land, not yet, at least.
âMMM, you do have such velvety hands in the morning,â she whispered.
I separated the stretched out fingers on my other hand to run their way through her hair, as silken as the sands of Cancun. She took my left hand in hers and placed it at the entrance to her heaven of honey.
I splayed her lips open. Each digit seemed to touch off its own spark as they started to play softly on her canal. My hand was still too tired after the previous nightâs adventures to do much more than touch that wet and wide opening , a true âTawn-doraâs box.â But, somehow, they magically seemed to come alive with the sound of musicâthe soft moans of the woman of my dreams as she was having some dreams of her own.
âHappy Birthday, sweetheart,â she whispered, still not yet awoken to the splendors of the day.
She started to drift back into the land of dreams, a land where I had prayed I was her nightly guest, just as I was in the land of reality.
For me, all of this was truly a dream come true. Starting to drift back into âSlumber Town,â myself, I was content that my most prized possession was held captive to the bed by the manacles. But it wasnât just the chained wristlets of silver that bound her. She was held captive, as well, by the love I had bestowed as often as I could ever since my aunt became my angel.
In my reverie, I reminisced about the phone call that changed my life. I could still hear the torrential downpour that sounded like war drums as the drops bombarded our skylight. You could hardly hear Mom talking to âAuntie Tâ on the telephone as they were discussing plans for my summer vacation.
âI think that would be a wonderful idea, Tawn. I know Frances would love it. And, she could always use the extra money for college, anyway,â Mom was saying over the phone.
âI will tell you and let you knowâŚI know, honey, I miss you, tooâŚI agree, it has been too long since you came down and this would be a wonderful experience. Iâll call you soon and let you know.â
Let her know what? What experience?
Mom was always the take-charge type. She had to be or the wolves on Madison Avenue, where my hardly sainted mater was Vice President for the ad firm of Dickenson, Thomas and OâHegan, would have eaten her alive. From stories I had heard, it was my mom who had done most of the eating, so to speak.
Oh, she hardly slept her way to the top, coming from Vassar with a summa cum laude average. But, she knew her way to the top, whether it was through the executive boardroom or the presidential bedroom.
She even found her way to the altar on two occasions, including when she met my stepfather, an oil maverick from deep Texas and moved to his ranch.
Of course, knowing my momâs voracious appetite and healthy libido, I was sure the oil wells were not the only thing that gushed. Nope, I was sure, mom gave a new meaning to this Texanâs idea of his âspread.â
Fortunately, her marriage and her move came after I began my studies in Syracuse. The day my aunt called, Mom was still the âMad She-wolf of Mad Ave.â She never stopped taking charge of things, and that included my life. Without even talking to me, she was formulating plans to get the last kid still at home out of the way for the summer.
Before my grandmother passed away, Gran and my aunt used the money Gramps bequeathed them to run a âbed and breakfastâ upstate in a small town called Caito. It was a wonderfully quaint community, the opposite side of New York state from us geographically, and the opposite side of the world socially.
It was always easy to spot her place on any New York Atlas. You followed Route 370 to the place where it turned north, and there, in the corner, sat the âTawn and Country.â It was a perfect place for hiding from civilization, luxuriating in the summer sun and ski snow.
It was billed as âThe Lair where we Care for the Maiden fare,â because the guests were all women and the atmosphere, as I would soon discover, was of love.
Peacefully, I was beginning to recollect in my dreams my introduction to joys I never knew before that initial summer at the âT&C.â
Amidst the cows grazing on the emerald pastures, often there were women, walking hand in hand, or, further off, in tents in the woods, unashamedly doing a special grazing of their own.
The troughs from which they drink may have been a stream, but not of water. No, this one was filled with a far more precious liquid goldâŚ. the liquid of love. The sweet dream I was enjoying as I drifted into the Land of Nod started filling my own trough with the essence of Mother Nature. Droplets were beginning to collect and tantalize the area above my thighs.
UntilâŚ.âThis is Linda Crawley, reporting from Shadow Traffic. If youâre headed into the Midtown Tunnel, you can expect up to a 30-minute delay as a 5 car pileup is blocking 2 lanes on the Long Island Expressway.
âDAMN THAT RADIO! I pressed âsnooze,â not âoff!â
This time, I was fully awake!
It was hard not to hear the cacophony of plane engines, traffic on the Belt Parkway, and that freaking radio that destroyed my heavenly slumber. The sound was driving me to drink. Well, actually, Aunt Tawny had driven me to drink last night, my first legal drink in New York, and then some, as she treated me to a birthday surprise unlike any I had known in my life. That was before we continued to her friend, Stellaâs, house near Kennedy Airport, where we would pick up my mom and stepdad.
I had nearly forgotten the sounds of the city life, so vastly different was the still of the county. These sounds that, once upon a time, I always took for granted were now driving me insane.
I thanked God that the other senses overcompensate for each other.
The sense of taste was incredulous. I nibbled on the back of my Sleeping Beautyâs neck, gathering tender strands of hair between my teeth. I could still taste remnants of the sweat that rolled down her head last night in the midst of the steamiest sexual entanglement we ever enjoyed. The taste of that sweat lingered on my tongue like a drop of claret lingers on the edge of a connoisseurâs taste buds. I couldnât wait until it was my Julietâs buds I was tasting.
That sweat blended in so well with the residual flavor of champagne and strawberries shampoo and the hot strawberry oils that Tawny had placed on the back of her neck, knowing I could never resist sinking my teeth into the utterly scrumptious skin behind her head.
And, the piece de resistance, that indescribably delicious remnant of female creme that she had picked up as her neck rubbed against my thighs when her face was lost in my love-haven during her favorite mealtime.
