Chapter 12: Katie

A few days before Christmas, Katie invited Nick and I to go shopping with her early in the morning. She bought presents for her family, and during our outing she insisted on buying me some lights and ornaments.

Later on that afternoon, we briefly returned to my apartment where Nick and Katie helped me put up the lights. Katie was gone in minutes because she had to get back to her family.

Nick stuck around at my place, and we drank beer and watched television for a while. He was quiet, uncharacteristically so, even for him. I put a hand on his leg and he turned to me.

“You still okay with everything?”

He smiled slightly.

“Yeah, of course. My brain is all over the place though.”

“Understandable.”

We sat silently for a while.

“I’m going to go back to my place and take a long walk,” he said. “I need some fresh air.”

He stood up, and I looked up at him.

“Call me later?”

He nodded, and after he had put on his parka and boots in the doorway we kissed for quite a while before he opened the door and left. I leaned back against it, and the silence of my apartment was deafening.

I got to work tidying up my place as a distraction. I cleaned up the kitchen, did my laundry, scrubbed the bathroom. By mid afternoon the place was sparkling, and I sat on the couch, staring out the window at the cold sun.

The phone rang, and the sudden sound sent jolts through me. I stumbled across the room to where it hung on the wall and picked it up.

“Hello?”

“Hi!”

“Katie?”

“Yes, who else?”

“Sorry, you’ve just never called me before. I didn’t even know you had my number.”

“Of course I do.”

I heard a little giggle on the other side of the line.

“I somehow left my reading glasses there.”

I put the receiver to my chest and looked around. Sure enough, there was a dainty little glass case on the coffee table that I had failed to notice during my cleaning binge.

“Yeah, I think I see them on the coffee table. I’ll bring them with me next time I see you.”

“I need them, I can’t read without them. I’ll come over and get them right now.”

“Oh, ah ... sure.”

“See you in a bit.”

About an hour later, the door buzzer rang and I pressed the button to let her in. I left the door ajar for her, and a few minutes later she appeared looking as incredible as ever in her fur-lined parka, big fluffy scarf, puffy boots, and woolen cap.

We hugged for a long while, then she pulled back and stared at me, grinning. Her blue eyes danced with mischief. I knew something was up.

“Can we chat for a bit?”

“Oh no,” I replied.

“Don’t worry, it’s nothing serious.”

I shrugged. “Fine. Can I offer you some tea?”

She unwrapped her scarf, pulled off her cap, and hung up her parka. Then she leaned against the door and pulled on her boots. She placed them on the rubber mat to collect the water from the melting snow.

I put the teapot on the coffee table and poured a cup. She put it to her lips, blew a little, and sipped.

“Mmmmm. Nice and warm.”

I sipped my tea and stared at her over the rim of my cup. She stared back, a little smirk on her face.

“Well,” I said, “I think I know what you want to ask.”

She nodded slightly, still smirking.

“And the answer is no, we didn’t do anything while you two were dating. He was 100% into you.”

“But before then, right?”

“Yeah, but just briefly. In the summer before grade 12.”

She looked pensive for a second.

“We were just horny teens, and it just sort of happened,” I said. “Nothing serious at all. It was just a few days at the beginning of the summer.”

“I had no idea.”

“Of course you didn’t!”

“I mean, I would have liked to know.”

“Ah,” I said. “Would you have decided not to date him?”

She laughed.

“No, it’s not that at all. I just ... I don’t know. Nick is really - conventional - in a lot of ways. I wouldn’t say dating him was boring, but he is definitely not the adventurous type. I would have liked to experience more of this side of him.”

I knew exactly what Katie was talking about. In all the time I’d known him, Nick’s life plans were fairly basic. He wanted to go to school, get a job in our town, get married, maybe have kids, and settle down. That’s it.

But he was definitely adventurous when it came to sex. I thought it was weird that he hadn’t shared that with her, but I didn’t know enough about their relationship to come to any conclusions.

But when it came to life in general, he had never expressed a desire to experience anything. When we were in high school, he was never allowed to go to concerts or parties, or anything fun at all.

I don’t know if his parents successfully crushed his spirit or if he genuinely wasn’t interested. But he had never expressed regret to me about never being able to do any of these things.

With that said, once we graduated that did change a bit, and he did start to be more sociable. We had been to a few shows in town, a few parties, stuff like that.

“What about after?”

“Huh,” I replied, shaken from my deep thought.

“After Nick and I broke up.”

“Oh. Oh! Right.”

She was grinning more widely now. These are the details she was really interested in.

“Um, it just kind of happened one day. We stopped here to use the shower on the way back from the gym.”

Her eyebrow arched.

“I see.”

“Yeah, he was in the shower, and I ... joined him.”

“And when was this?”

“Um, September?”

She gasped, and leaned forward laughing.

“You guys have been fucking since September!”

I couldn’t help but laugh.

“Yes?”

She leaned back, shaking her head.

“I am just ... shocked. I never knew he had this side to him.”

“Well, he probably didn’t know you were into it.”

“And that,” she said, locking eyes with me. “Is exactly why we broke up.”

I was overcome with the weight of this statement and the realization that accompanied it. I looked at Katie, and she had a more serious look now.

“I hate this place,” she said, referring to our town. “I have always wanted to get out of here. I want to see the world, experience life, have adventures.”

She leaned forward.

“Don’t tell Nick this yet, but my next work study is nine months in Asia. I leave in January.”

My stomach turned in knots, both for Nick and myself.

“I wanted us to have adventures together, but all he wanted was to stay here. And I just can’t do that. I have too much life to live, I have so many things I want to experience.”

I nodded.

“I get it,” I said. “I’m the same way.”

She leaned forward and slapped me on the thigh.

“Yes,” she said, “You are.”

We sat for a while longer, sipping our tea. I really felt like I had gotten to know her far beyond the superficial “friend’s girlfriend” level I had before.

“So you’re leaving after New Year’s?”

“Yep,” she replied. “It’s coming up so fast.”

“Well, I hope the three of us can get together one last time before you go.”

Katie’s look returned to the mischievous smirk.

“Oh, I think that might be in the cards.”

A wave of horny excitement washed over me, and despite my best efforts to conceal, it was written all over my face.

But then Katie slid over on the couch, right up against me. Our eyes met.

“I’m here now though...”

I felt her hand slide up my thigh and onto my now ragingly hard cock. Then she climbed onto my lap, straddling me. She leaned in and pressed her full, warm, wet lips against mine and I responded with a deep, passionate kiss.

Chills radiated down my spine as her gentle moans of pleasure poured like honey in my ears. I felt her grinding her pussy against my hard cock through our jeans, and I couldn’t take it any longer.

I pushed up on the couch as she wrapped her arms around my neck. As I stood, her legs slithered around my waist and her feet linked behind my butt. I carried her to the bedroom, attempting to keep an eye out with my face buried in hers.

I tossed her down on the bed and she let out a little gasp, grinning. Then she propped herself up on her arms, her knees bent, legs spread. I slid in on my knees in front of her.

I started the arduous task of getting her naked. She was wearing a thick sweater, a top shirt, and an undershirt. I pulled them off one by one, and I felt like I was opening a set of nesting Russian dolls.

“Finally!” I laughed, when I got her down to her bra.

“Do you want to do the honors,” she laughed, pushing her chest out.

“Hell yes,” I replied, and I reached behind her and undid the clasps. She leaned forward to slip it off, and her gorgeous tits emerged.

I stood at the edge of the bed and pulled my shirt over my head.

Then she leaned forward, undid the buttons on my jeans, and pulled everything down. My rock hard cock sprung into her face as she pulled my underwear past it.

I gasped as she leaned forward and slipped her soft, moist lips over my head and sucked me in. Her tongue cupped my shaft as she slid her lips down.

I put a hand on her head as she slid me in and out of her mouth, and the feeling was intense. Almost too intense.

I pushed her back, and she looked up at me as she fell back against the bed. I undid the button on her pants, and she lifted her hips as I pulled everything off in one fell swoop.

I looked down. Her pussy was glistening wet underneath that mound of gorgeous blonde pubes.

I stood up and got out of my jeans while Katie got up on her knees to hug me as I got on the bed. She wrapped her arms around my neck as our tongues slid in and out of each other’s mouths.

I pressed my hard cock against her and I could feel her heart pounding, her breath heavy.

I laid down on my back and motioned for her to get on top of me in a 69. She quickly threw a leg over my chest and her slick, warm pussy was in my face.

I felt her hand wrap around the base of my cock and her lips slide over my head, then she was rhythmically sucking with a delightful vacuum on the way up and sloppy wet tongue action on the way down. It was heavenly.

I reached around her left side, and slid a hand under her belly. I got my thumb into position to slide her hood up, then slipped my wet tongue from her asshole all the way down across her labia. Then I went to work, pulsing the tip of my tongue on her now-exposed clit.
