Sarah leaned over the stainless steel counter at the ice cream stand. She was half in shadow, almost hidden under the large menu of the GALAXY FROZEN TREATS sign taped to the glass window. I bent my head down to see her, so she moved forward, the late summer sun catching and brightening her ginger colored hair.
"It's a little early for ice cream," she said, smiling. She had a slight overbite but tiny and bright white teeth. Above her mouth was a little snub of a nose, blunt and wide and flaking with the remains of a sunburn.
"Well, it is eighty five degrees already," I said. Sarah smiled again and cocked her head. I wasn't sure if she recognized me or not.
Sarah had been a year behind me in high school, which would make her nineteen years old now. She was never one any of the boys paid attention to. Mostly, she had been known for being awarded the "Athlete Of The Year" distinction twice in volleyball. She wasn't a knockout, but she wasn't ugly either. She wasn't huge, but in school she had been considered quite large, the kind they always described as 'beefy'. If anyone talked about her at all, it was to call attention to her breasts. You know, the way high school boys do when they categorize the size and shape of the tits of the girls in their class. Hers were rated fairly high.
I had never talked to Sarah in school. I had never admitted to myself, or to my friends, the constant desire I had felt for her. I don't think I had ever had a conversation with her. Yeah, I had masturbated to her plenty of times, sometimes even to the colorful yearbook picture I had of her in her volleyball uniform. I loved her size and strength. I loved her thick ginger hair. To me, she was like a big, firm pink marshmallow that I could squeeze forever.
"Do you know me, Sarah?" I asked. She slid up on the counter and stuck her head out the window. Her thick arms were so smooth and hairless, though her hands were small and delicate. Her fingernails looked painfully chewed. But what I loved best was the magnificent full swell of her breasts, straining through the white polo shirt she wore. They were as luscious as I remembered.
"Sure I remember you...you're Mike!" She laughed. I haven't seen you for a year...they told me you're in the army now."
I was thrilled. Somebody had told her about me. That meant she had been asking, or had at least been interested enough to listen. I leaned down and put my arms next to hers. I brushed against them. The feeling of the cool steel and the warmth of her skin was electrifying.
As I moved closer to her face, her mouth opened, the tip of her tongue flicking over the whiteness of her teeth. She had such a cute overbite. Her breath was warm and sweet.
"Well Mike...and what kind of ice cream do you want?" I imagined she was breathing heavily.
"What's your favorite?" I asked.
"I try not to eat it. I try. As fat as I am..."
"Well, youre not...you're not fat you know. You're just big and strong. Delicious.The way people like. Men at least."
Sarah laughed and leaned back. I noticed she did weigh a little more than she had in high school. Her hips were a little wider, making her jeans stretch tight across her thighs. But to me, that was good...very good!
"Well, what about that flavor?" she asked.
