Jessica had promised to pick me up at the airport - where the hell was she?
"Hey big brother!"
I recognized the voice instantly - and it had been much too long. I turned to find her standing over to the side in the crowd wearing a big grin. I turned and walked over to her, grasping her in a big bear hug and lifting her off the ground...giving her a big kiss on the cheek.
She was even more beautiful than I remembered. A girl-next-door kind of beautiful. Jess had shoulder length honey-blonde hair, a light complexion with a golden hue from time spent in the sun, and a smattering of freckles that added to that girl-next-door look. All of this was highlighted by sea-blue eyes that constantly sparkled.
I put her down, but kept my arms around her, holding her close. "If it's possible, you are more beautiful than the last time I saw you. How is that possible?"
"You are still the charmer, aren't you Jeremy?" she said laughing.
And I was, I guess. But she had filled out a little more in the 3 years since I'd last seen her. Her breasts were still small, which I'm particularly fond of. Mom's genes at work there, I think, and not a bad thing. But the last time I saw her, she still had a little girl's body, and now she had a bit more of a woman's body - more curve in her hips with an exquisite heart-shaped ass.
Jessica was 22 and had just graduated from college and returned home for the summer until she started law school in the fall. As younger sisters go, I couldn't have asked for better. Two years younger than me, she had always been bright, inquisitive, impetuous. We had always been close - not like other brothers and sisters we knew. In high school, we shared the same social circles, activities, and intellectual interests. We became really close after our father divorced our mother. We became even closer when one of my friends started dating her during my senior year in high school. And even closer when I pounded the hell out of him after he hit her when she was 16.
She had never dated much despite her incredible looks - the big reason was that the guys she often went out with were intimidated by how smart she was. Guys can be such dicks.
"Charmer, Jess? Only with you. How's mom?"
She smiled again - radiating a beauty that's hard to explain. "She's fine. Anxious to see you. You've been away too long."
I frowned. "I know. I've missed you both. After the breakup with Jen a few years ago, I just threw myself into something of a monkish life. Studying all the time, no social life. You know."
She pulled me close, hugging me harder. "I do know. But I've missed you. And mom too. Let's go see her."
The drive home was short and it wasn't long before we pulled into the driveway of the somewhat isolated home where I grew up - a few neighbors around - some married couples and a few more divorced middle-aged women, many of whom were friends with mom. Mom got the house in the divorce along with a settlement that would provide for her, and us, for a very long time. Dad was an ass, pure and simple, but he was a wealthy ass. It's good to come from family with money. My grandfather was also generous in his will when he died, especially since he was pretty much in agreement about my dad being an ass. As a matter of fact, he pretty much bypassed my dad altogether, leaving everything to Jess and me. All that money helped pay for my graduate degree in physics.
Mom nearly bowled me over as we entered the house. In fact, she did knock me over. The next thing I knew, I was on the floor, mom was on top of me, both arms wrapped around me and blubbering about how I was the worst, most ungrateful son in the world.
I looked up at Jess, who was most startled by this odd turn. I shrugged from a prone position, and wrapped my arms around my mother, holding her close until she stopped crying. I kissed her on the cheek and laughed. "I missed you mom. I love you." And that seemed to do the trick.
Mom, aka Janine, wasn't the spitting image of Jess, but she was pretty damned close. Jess was a couple of inches taller, but mom had strawberry-blonde hair and the same sparkling blue eyes. A few more wrinkles around the eyes than the last time I saw her, but the laugh lines and happy disposition were still in full bloom. Mom had much the same body as Jess, small breasts, and full hips. And she kept herself in excellent physical condition with regular tennis and swimming.
We managed to stumble our way off the floor into a standing position, our arms wrapped tightly around each other. I heard her say "I've missed you so much", and I couldn't stop myself from crying. Jess came over and wrapped her arms around the both of us and she too was crying. I knew I always loved them, but being away so long, I had forgotten how much. But I was finally home with the women I loved most in the world.
I've always been an early riser and woke up before the sun the next day and went for a long run down by the river. Back home in an hour, and a long hot shower got me ready for the day. I crept quietly downstairs so I wouldn't wake the girls, made the coffee, got the paper and spent the next hour or so in quietude. I finally heard someone stirring upstairs and it wasn't long before I heard someone coming down the stairs.
Jess walked into the kitchen, hair still tousled, looked over my way and grinned. "It's good to know that some things are a constant," referring to my early ways.
I looked back at her, and realized I was staring. "Do you normally come downstairs undressed, or is this just for me?" She was wearing silk pajama shorts that were nothing if not revealing, and a light pink cotton tank that had been cut off just below her breasts.
She looked down and then back at me. "What? I'm dressed. Maybe you've just been without sex for too long." She giggled at her own jest, got a cup of coffee and sat down at the table across from me.
"For your information, I have been without sex for too long, but that doesn't have anything to do with the attire you are currently wearing. Or rather lack of attire. Maybe a robe before you came downstairs?"
But she did look good, long slender legs and one of those flat abdomens that countless TV commercials promise but never deliver. The cropped tank fit closely, accentuating the curves of the small breasts, and accentuating the slight bulge of her nipples.
She looked at me again and grinned. "When did you become such a prude? Besides, the way you were staring at me when I walked in, you might have thought I was a steak and you were a hungry dog."
I heard mom coming down the stairs just then. "Mom, could you ask Jess to make sure that she..." and stopped mid-sentence when my mother rounded the corner. She was wearing the t-shirt that I had worn yesterday and tossed into the dirty laundry. And nothing else.
She walked across to the coffee and as she bent over the counter for a cup in the cabinet, the t-shirt rode up exposing a well-formed ass in black nylon panties.
I shook my head when I realized I was staring at my mother's ass. "Mom, why are you wearing my t-shirt? I tossed that in the laundry."
She poured the coffee and turned, leaning back against the counter. She looked at me and grasped the neck of the shirt, pulling it up to her face and breathing deeply. This action, of course, meant the bottom of the shirt pulled up, again exposing the same black panties, this time uncovering the nexus of her thighs and the prominent mound between them. She let the shirt fall back into place, looked at me and Jess and said, "Jeremy dear, it smells of you and you've always had such a wonderful smell. Like summertime."
My sister, who was taking this all in, burst out laughing when my mom said, "Now what was it you wanted me to tell Jess again?"
After dinner that evening, mom and I parked ourselves on the downstairs couch in front of the television to watch whatever dumbass sports we could find. We found X-treme sports on some obscure channel, got a couple of drinks and settled in. Given our long separation, we were close with my arm around her and her head on my shoulder. Around 8, we heard Jess coming down the stairs.
She rounded the corner into the living room and presented herself. "So, what do you think? How do I look?"
