The idea for these narratives started as talks with my wife about my sex drive vs. hers. She holds the viewpoint that I am somewhat overly focused on sex at our age, which is for us, early our 50s. We have had many discussions and comparing of experiences, what it all actually accomplished is yet to be seen.
What I Learned in College- Chapter 4 β Summer
I'm just not able to say that I was thrilled about being home for the summer after the eye opening first year of college I'd just completed. Having spent over eight months making money from various musical endeavors, partying, fucking and passing classes without much study at all and then being thrust back into dealing up close and personal with my parent's mostly good intentioned over supervision had me pissed off, sober and horny. Not a good combination.
Receiving a "Dear Malcolm" letter from my fuck bubby informing me that she was headed out to California soon for college next fall put me in a huge black mood. My cousin who usually provided we with at least a 3-4 day window of escape had just moved to Chicago to be with his fiancΓ©, the rat bastard.
I had no problem getting work, but painting was the last thing I gave a shit about doing. Nothing can make things worse than being a narcissistic almost twenty year old. The world owes you right? There's nothing like another thirty years to give you some perspective.
I had some playing work, but nothing regular and even a few students. Painting, a few students and some gigs would have to do. It would be mid August soon enough.
By the second week of being home things had settled in, or so I thought. Coming home from work after a long Wednesday of apartment painting, I found a note in my Grandmother's hand that said:
Call Liz, she has a gig for you both!
Love,
Grandma
(I'd talk about Grandma more...but this is supposed to be about sex at some point...)
Liz!
We had none each other since grade school and had lived in the same neighborhood for just as long. She was a pianist and had been my only regular accompanist for solo contests or auditions since seventh grade. My biggest regret up until that time was going to college at a different school than Liz. I wanted to keep her because of our report as performers.
We knew things about each other that I am pretty sure almost no one else knew.
Her biggest not so secret thing she held on to was that I had wanted to date her best friend Janice. Janice knew too, and she was a cock-teasing bitch in the best possible way. I had been sprung over Janice since middle school, but the real crush started when I was invited too a pool party the summer between 10th and 11th grades at Janice's house.
Not only was the house and pool fantastic; but also tall, lanky, late-blooming Janice grew tits sometime during our 10th grade year and her bikini put them on display. Besides her tits, the cut of her swimsuit bottom showed more ass cheek than I would see in a bikini until visiting South America years later.
Liz and Janice made quite a pair. Janice was at least 5"-10' flatted footed while Liz was maybe 5"-4' in high heels (which made her legs look great!). Janice had dark brown, shoulder length, straight hair and blue eyes while Liz's sandy blonde hair hung to the middle of her back and had a slight natural curl. Her hazel eyes were flecked with brown.
Neither girl carried much in the way of extra weight, but Liz had a slightly plump ass that was accentuated by the wider set of her hips. Janice had been the more athletic of the too, but Liz swam like a greased otter and her build made me think of a mermaid, except for her swim floats. Both girls were about a 34-C. What was a nice set of tits on Janice were made extravagant but the difference in height and frame.
Liz's 34-Cs were awesome!
Speaking of being a tease, I had seen plenty of her tits and cleavage. She was demure to a fault out in public and at school, but she did have more than one strikingly cut "little black dress" for gigs and parties. She also wore peasant blouses, tube tops, halters and other revealing tops when we would rehearse at her house.
She had the nerve to say, "My eyes are up here." to me once when see was pushing the limit with a scoop necked t-shirt and no bra on a particularly warm spring afternoon when I need to have her work with me as I prepared for an audition.
I answered her with, "I know where you eyes are, there hazel colored. I like your tits. They fucking gorgeous. She grinned and pulled the shirt down to give me a look at one hard brown nipple.
I said "Thanks". She smiled again and we went back to work. I'm an idiot. That's perfectly clear to me now.
I called Liz and found out we had a gig playing a piece we had played together many times. This time it would be part of a memorial service the next Saturday afternoon and we would make $60 a piece for 4 minutes of playing during the thirty-minute service.
Rehearsal with Liz- and a challenge
Liz meet me at her front door at the assigned time looking tanned, fit and damn hot.
It seemed the first year of college had been good to her too. Her hair had natural streaks of lighter blonde to go with her tan, which was set off by the white flower print sundress she was wearing with no fucking bra! I have to say I enjoyed her enthusiastic hug quite a lot.
We got down to business and ran the piece down in less than fifteen minutes. We were all business! We had no more finished than Liz's Mom popped in the room and offered "Lemonade on the deck if you don't have to run."
Done deal. We got to their backyard deck overlooking an undeveloped wooded hillside and were promptly served fresh, homemade lemonade and ginger snaps. Liz's Mom was the best. She asks a few of the usual questions of me: How was school? What was I doing this summer? etc. Then she excused herself saying,
"You kids have a lot to talk about, I'm sure..." June Cleaver in a fairly "hot" sundress
Covers Liz's Mom to aptly.
Liz waiting about 10 seconds before she said, "Be right back..." In just a moment she retuned with a mostly full bottle of Stoli and topped off both of out glasses before disappearing for another moment.
Liz returned, offered her glass to clink with mine and said,
"Mom's not going to be the only one starting happy hour at this house..."
All I could say was 'Thanks..."
We did chat about our various school situations. About the time I absentmindedly noticed that they had a spa and some new decking to go with it, Liz pointedly said
"Janice is dying for you to call her." With a Cheshire cat grin.
"A little bitterly, I answered, "And exactly why should I do that. The last time I saw her, she made sure and told me all about her engagement to Dumbass."
"Dumbass" was Janice's rich boy, assholish and talentless boyfriend. He played trombone, went to private school and was my "bitch" at every audition we both took. I took some solace in that fact. It didn't keep me from being bitter.
