Chapter 10: Next

Kezia’s and my relationship is growing in new directions. Faye suggested it. Kezia endorsed it, and I’m compliant. Kezia is studying the Texas Two Step with me, taking classes together on evenings the band isn’t playing. Our ambition, is to compete, dancing in the young adults or teens category. Kezia is too young to compete in these categories yet, but a natural athlete and talented dancer, she’ll be ready by her thirteenth birthday. Kezia grows more beautiful daily. I’m her lucky guy.

Ruth’s tummy is growing, and she also seems more beautiful every day. I moved in with Ruth. My parents weren’t happy with my decision, or happy with Ruth’s age but we coerced them into making the best of the circumstances. Ruth holds future access to their first grandchild over their heads. They can’t win that pissing contest. Is it luck, or ruthless obstinateness winning this time? We can’t be accused of being ruthless, my love for Ruth is what it’s all about!

The band is doing very well, and so is my social life. Mantha and I were only together once. She required me to wear a condom, and I don’t see any sense in repeating that experience. She’s willing for me to go down on her, but she has a lot of competition. Don’t mistake me, I don’t wish to impregnate any of my girlfriends. What I wish, is they all would wear IUDs like Melody. Melody frequently gives me some pussy. To my regret, Faye and I still sexually avoid each other.

The number of girlfriends willing to accept lip service has increased. Girlfriends I’ve never savored are now the minority. Margit is a recent recruit, both as a girlfriend and a flavorful one. She claims she is only protecting Kezia by providing herself to me as a substitute. My impression is, she wants to steal me from her little sister. Why? Why she wants to steal me, I can’t answer or speculate. Why I believe she wants to, is because she’s willing to risk a pregnancy to accomplish her goal. She has invited me to fuck her without a condom. Not happening with or without condoms. Kezia is too important to me to risk offending her.

Kezia and I have been making plans together for building our future together. I don’t want to ruin that potential future by getting too intense with Margit or other kin. When I’m licking Margit, I imagine she’s Kezia. Eventually, any similarity in taste will be discovered.

Is my plans with Kezia unfair to Ruth? Ruth expects to be post menopausal in ten years, or less, and she thinks Kezia is an excellent candidate as her successor. Sharing creating and raising a child with me is Ruth’s guarantee we will always remain important in each other’s lives. I assure Ruth often, I’ll never stop loving her. I won’t.

Ruth only draws a salary during the school year. During the summer, she lives off her savings carefully hoarded during the other nine months. Many teacher’s have summer jobs, or teaching is a second job, an adjunct to their primary career. Example, several farmers teach in addition to farming. Ruth has a small year round business on the side, to supplement her teaching salary. She refinishes wooden furniture with a blond finish. Blond furniture is currently in style. She appreciates my small weekly contributions to the household expenses. I have to pay Kezia back before I can be a better provider.
