[Thanks to all who have given comments and votes to Chapter 01 of this story. At this moment as I write this, Chapter 02 has not yet been approved and posted. I am aiming at coming up with the successive parts of this story at about the same rate as it takes for approval and posting.
Here and elsewhere, some have questioned the way I write some scenes, sex scenes in particular. To some the style seems overly poetic and ethereal, though the most common adjective is "flowery."
I do have a specific reason for that approach. I do not insist that it's exactly the right one; like all writers, I'm groping for the ideal approach and depending on readers to guide me.
I have just submitted an essay in the Essays and Reviews category that goes into this, titled "The Ideal Sex Scene? My (perhaps heretical) theories on the art" If you're curious about the basis for this aspect of the style I use, please take a look at that.
Thanks again.]
Hi, all, this is Jason. Remember, Linda and Janine and Fred and all? Right,
that
Jason.
I'll guess that a lot of you are really waiting for my mom, Linda, to take up where she left off. Well, just chill there for a while; that's on the way. Dad just gave you some exposition and I think I should give you the rest.
First, though, one thing: I know a lot of you think it's pretty weird, Dad and Sammy getting into pictures of Mom and Jannie doing their mambo, me taking the pictures and—yeah, I'm busted—watching for my own fun, and all that. Maybe it is pretty weird. Maybe Dad will explain some of that later on, maybe not; I don't know. I do have a few ideas, though, that might hold some water.
First, remember that part where Mom was recalling a time when Dad was giving a speech somewhere and Sammy was off in South Nowhere doing geek stuff? That should be a clue. Yes, they travel. A lot. And neither one of them is the kind that uses being on the road as an excuse to screw around. In my view, if they can bring a bit of home and wife with them in these pictures instead of hustling one-night-stands in the hotel bar, that can only be a good thing.
Second, well, these are two damn good-looking women. Why wouldn't Dad and S. both like the idea of enjoying a glimpse of each others' wives, knowing it's cool and safe and out in the open? I mean, they aren't about to try to hustle them, just enjoy the view. What's the harm?
(By the way, if you happen to be one of those weenies that thinks husbands like that are wimps, keep it to yourself. I know Dad a hell of a lot better than you do. Sammy too. If I can't delete your noses, I'll sure the hell delete your posts. Take heed.)
You can see, however, that neither one of these deals with where I fit into the picture, how they can accept me as intermediary, spy, photographer, and especially, voyeur, particularly when it comes to voyeurism with that incestuous streak in it. Well, let's just wait and see what might turn up later about that.
OK, where was I? Right. How it all started.
Naturally, it really started when Mom and J. first got into their thing. You already know as much about that as I do, so let's jump ahead.
If you're a guy and you're straight and you're young, you probably have a few fantasies about older women, often called MILFs in the current parlance. If you're not so young, you probably used to. Come on, admit it! Anyway, I had one in particular. Yes, Janine. I don't know what kind of impression you've gotten of her so far; just take it on faith, she's a ten-megawatt hottie. I don't mean to say I was all hung up on her or anything like that; I was just, shall we say, (cue broad BBC-English accent) inclined to appreciate the benefits of her most favorable visible attributes (end accent, mercifully).
She's a pleasure to see all over, but her hottest specialty, at least arguably, is her nipples. Those puppies could drill holes through a concrete wall and never sweat the work. I think she used to go to a lot of trouble to hide them, but as time went on, she stopped fussing about it. I can't begin to count the number of times that I've tried to take a good look at them without ending up gawking and scaring her off, especially when I was in my middle teens and hormones out of control. (All right, all right, so they still are, but not quite so much. Gimme a break.)
One day I returned early from class. There had been a quiz that day and we were free to leave when we were done. Sometimes I park on a side street and get to my apartment at the end of the house through the back yard. It's an easier trip. On this particular day I had just entered the yard from the back gate and fastened it. As I turned, I heard the rear sliding-glass patio door open and Janine's voice giving Mom a cheerful good-bye. That's their almost-daily routine so I hardly noticed—until I looked.
