I stood at the sink. The running water took me back to the last time we were together.
We had finally moved from flirting to satisfying our urges at her cottage during the late summer. I had heard the water running when I woke up following our intense session. With some trepidation I made my way to the bathroom door. I tried the handle and found it locked. Gently rapping and then harder, I waited for a response. Nothing. I pounded now calling out to her actually contemplating breaking the door down.
Finally she answered, "Please leave now."
"I just want to talk. I'll wait till you finish."
"I have nothing to say to you. Go."
I made my way back into the living room, found my clothes and hastily dressed. I heard the door to the bathroom open. Footsteps padded across the floor and another door closed. I walked to her bedroom and knocked. Finding it locked, I called out. Getting no response I made up my mind.
"When you realize that we deserve to have some happiness, talk to me."
I left.
Months had passed with no communication outside of the typical family gatherings. Christmas Eve had been interesting with a warming of sorts. I got a soft kiss on the lips from Adelaide as we arrived and several times she seemed to be standing closer than usual. At one point I put my arm around her waist as we talked - her standing and me sitting at the table. Her breasts pressed brushed against my arm. When Jill and I left a couple of hours later, I got a sideways hug from her with no eye contact and a "uh huh" when I thanked her for the evening.
Our annual post Christmas party with Jill's brothers and spouses took place at our lake again. Dan and Adelaide were staying with us while Ken and Dawn had their place a couple of miles up the road.
We enjoyed a drink and started to relax. Dan changed into his lounge pants and Adelaide emerged from their room notably braless wearing a burgundy camisole under a vee neck sweater. Her hair was pinned up and she looked happy for the first time in a long time.
I got Dan a second beer and mixed a rum smoothy for Adelaide and Jill.
"I hope there's no booze in there," Dan commented. "If that's for Adelaide she can't handle it."
"Just a touch," I replied.
Jill had a refused the drink so I clinked glasses with Adelaide. As usual Dan had taken my easy chair so I sat on the sofa. Jill sat beside her brother on the love seat in the living room. The television was on and with the angle it was hard to see the screen.
"Can you see okay?" I asked Adelaide.
She responded by moving close to me and leaning on my shoulder - "Now I can. Is this okay with you?"
"Glad somebody's getting some action!" Dan sneered.
With that I placed my arm around her shoulder feeling her weight against my side. Even through the sweater I could feel the heat from her breasts.
Dinner came and went without event except when Adelaide brought my wine glass from the living room she gave me a kiss on the lips.
Which brings me back to the sink. Adelaide came to one side and standing close tried to take the dish cloth from me and in the process ground her boobs into my side and arm.
"Let me!" she said pulling harder.
"Not yet. It's just too much fun," I replied as I pressed harder into her breasts moving her into a space beside the fridge. Everyone else had stayed seated at the table in the adjoining room enjoying a Grand Marnier.
As I moved to kiss her, she turned sideways and away from me. Rather than moving her to face me, I spun her with her back to me and whispered in her ear, "Happy New Year". My pelvis ground into her backside and my hands held her sides. She seemed to push back but said nothing. Seizing the moment I let my hands move up to cup her breasts over the clothing. She moaned.
One hand snaked down her side and up underneath. As I made contact with her breasts I felt her nipple engorge and was sure she felt the similar effect she had on me as I pressed into her.
"Come here you two. Leave those alone and relax," Jill called out.
