Holly
"Sure Mom. I promise I'll give her a call when I hit town. Ok, love you too." I click off my cell and drop it on the car seat beside me.
That was my mother, still trying to maintain some semblance of control over my life, despite the fact that I am 27 and haven't lived at home in 7 years. My name is Clark and I'm in sales, heading for a conference in Dallas. The reason for my mother's call is that my cousin Holly has recently moved to the metroplex and she's hoping that I'll catch up with her. Since she's fresh out of college, there's some concern in the family that her wild times aren't all behind her. My uncle is still footing most of the bill for her upkeep, according to my mother. If they are hoping for me to report back on my findings, they're barking up the wrong tree.
I can't even recall the last time I saw Holly. It must have been three or four years ago at least. Once she graduated high school and went off to college on the left coast, I haven't seen her at any of the usual family functions around the holidays. What I can recall was that she was a handful for her parents, especially in her teens. I finger the Post-It note I've written her number on and sigh. Might as well get this over with. I'm sure that a 22 year old, single girl has better things to do than meet her cousin for dinner on a Friday night.
"Hello?" I hear after the first ring.
"Holly? Hey, it's Clark." There's a pregnant pause of silence before the name registers.
"Clark! Hey, long time no hear! How are you?" She actually sounds excited to hear from me and I fill her in on where I am and the reason for my call.
"Dinner? Sure, I'd love to! Some of the girls and I go out to a local Mexican place for dinner and drinks, well, mostly drinks on Fridays. Do you want to join us?"
"Sure, that sounds great. I'm about an hour out. Give me the name of the place and I'll find you there tonight." She gives me the info and I promise to meet her later.
By 8 pm, I'm checked into my hotel and have showered and changed into more casual clothing. I find the restaurant easily enough. It's packed tonight and I shoulder my way into the scrum, looking around for Holly. I hope I recognize her as it has been sometime since I last saw her. She spots me first as I hear a high pitched squeal, followed by "Clark!" I turn my head and spot Holly standing on her chair, waving her hands wildly over her head. I smile, wave back and make my way over.
Holly is whispering conspiratorially to two of her girlfriends as I walk up. She hops off her barstool and heads towards me with arms outstretched. I sickly notice that she has definitely grown up since I last saw her. She crushes the big tits I've spotted against me in a tight bear hug (Ed. Note: You didn't honestly think you'd get through one of my stories without that particular attribute cropping up, did you?). She pulls back and then surprises me by leaning back in and planting a big, wet kiss on my lips. I note the smell of liquor on her breath as she turns to introduce me to her friends.
"Nicole, Shelly, this big hunk is my cousin Clark. Clark this is Shelly and Nicole!" I blush at her description of me, but have to admit I'm nothing to sneeze at in the looks department. I am big, 6'2", 210, and played college baseball. I have sandy brown hair and green eyes, keeping myself fit with thrice weekly iron pumping sessions. Despite Holly's embarrassing introduction, things are definitely looking up. Both of her friends are gorgeous with long blonde hair and curvy figures. I can see from their appraising eyes they find me attractive as well. Holly nudges Nicole over so I can sit beside her. I roll my eyes at Nicole who grins as she gives up her seat. Holly brushes those soft tits across my arm as she sits and turns towards me. I should take this time to better describe my cousin so you can better understand what I'll be dealing with later.
Holly hasn't gotten any taller, still standing around 5'4", but as I mentioned, her figure has definitely flowered. I can see the shifting of her boobs beneath the peasant blouse she's wearing and can't help but wonder if she's wearing a bra. She has this long, middle of the back, dirty blonde hair that has always been impossibly full and lustrous. Her facial features are sharp and defined, highlighted by a big, full mouth which she's giving a workout as she chatters on about our family and things that the two girlfriends couldn't possibly be interested in. I offer a weak smile to the two and am rewarded by big smiles from the both of them.
"Oh! Here we are!" Holly exclaims, turning to the waitress who is setting a tray on our table. "Shots!" It's appearing that my families' suspicions are correct as four shot glasses of Patron' are lined up in front of us. Not one to miss out on a shot myself, I participate in the three part ritual and savor the smooth taste of the premium tequila sliding down my throat. Holly immediately orders another round and I can tell it's going to be a long night.
Four rounds later, I'm getting to know Nicole much better as we have progressed from idle chit chat to her warm hand resting on my thigh. She works in an office with Holly and Shelly and wants to try out for the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders this season. I'm mentally patting myself on the back for coming out to dinner when Holly reaches across me, rubbing her boobs on my arm for the umpteenth time, and pokes Nicole in the shoulder.
"Come to the bathroom," she yells over the crowd noise, her words slurring slightly from the tequila. From the expression on Nicole's face and the seriousness on Holly's, I can tell this isn't just one girlfriend keeping another company. As they leave, I look at Shelly with a 'what the fuck?' expression. She rolls her eyes.
"Holly's just pissed that Nicole's hogging all of your attention, that's all."
I'm surprised. "Why?"
She glances over her shoulder to presumably make sure they're out of earshot before leaning towards me. "All she's done all afternoon is talk about you. How she's missed seeing you, what a great friend and cousin you are, blah, blah, blah. Says you were her first crush." She waggles her eyebrows at me.
"What is this Appalachia? We're cousins," I say laughing it off, but in the pit of my stomach I know she's right. Holly had always acted different around me, especially once she hit her teens. Surely she's grown out of that, right?
Shelly and I chat amiably for a few minutes before I see Nicole returning from the back, with Holly nowhere in sight. Nicole is stone-faced as she picks up her purse.
"Leaving already? We're just getting started good," I say, as Nicole gestures to Shelly with a 'come on'. She sighs and pats me on the arm.
"Clark, it was really nice to meet you and I had a nice time getting to know you." She leans towards me and kisses me on the cheek before whispering in my ear, "I just can't deal with Holly's proprietary bullshit. Call me if you're ever back in town." She slips me a business card and with a wave and shrug from Shelly, they are gone. I sit there, dumbfounded, for a few minutes before a pissed off looking Holly appears.
"Holly, what the hell was that all about?"
