Chapter 4

When Julie and Taylor returned to the living room, they saw that Mindy had retrieved her clothes from the dryer and was sitting on the sofa trying to find something to watch on the television.

“You’re walking a little funny, Mom. Are you hurt?” she asked as she saw her mother walking toward the kitchen. “You look kind of like a duck waddling,”

Julie glared at Taylor.

“What’s it like outside, Mindy?” Taylor asked.

“It’s been snowing all morning, and for the last half hour, much heavier than earlier. How long is this going to go on?”

A news bulleting was scrolling across the bottom of the television screen, reporting that more snow was likely for the entire northeast region for the next twenty-four hours.

“Do you have a telephone that works?”

As he walked to the table to pick up the landline telephone, he shook his head. “In a storm, that usually the first thing to go and the last to be restored. And, before you ask, signal strength for cell phones sucks, especially after a snow like we are having.”

Mindy responded, “Yeah, I figured that out while you two were otherwise occupied. I have no bars on either phone.”

“So, nobody knows we are here and there is no one to call to help dig us out? I am sure my parents are going nuts because I didn’t call to tell them we made it home ok.”

Taylor tried to be reassuring, “Julie, I am sorry that we are so isolated out here. I know it was dark when you came, but there aren’t a whole lot of houses on this road and it is not high on the priority list to get plowed. At some point, possibly later tonight, we may be able to get a signal to allow us to make some calls, and I have enough contacts to get us help if and when the phones work. Until then, it’s the three of us. We have heat, lights, water and plenty of food and drink, so just try to relax and consider this a very unusual vacation.”

As the two women sat comfortably on the sofa watching a holiday parade on television, Taylor went to the kitchen and in less that twenty minutes had a very elaborate spread of light hors d’oeuvres which he presented to them, along with three glasses and a bottled of chilled Pinot Grigio.

“My goodness, how elaborate. You are quite a host,” Julie said. “How did you come up with all of this so quickly?”

“It isn’t hard if you know what you want to fix and have everything at hand. Just open a bunch of packages, spread a little of this here and there and you’re done.”

“Mindy added, “I was going to say that I wonder what else he can do, but we already know that, don’t we.”

Julie sighed, and Taylor kept his mouth shut.

After the second bottle of wine, Mindy began to get anxious and Julie concerned about what she had allowed to take place. “Mindy, I know that we agreed that you could have your first sex experience, even though I am concerned that you are too young, but I don’t want you to think that know that you have had sex that’s it’s alright to just do it whenever.”

That was not what Mindy wanted to hear. “What? You think that you should get to have him all to yourself? How is that fair? I get just as excited as you do, and Taylor is just about the perfect teacher and partner. We’re stuck here in the stupid snow. I don’t like it anymore than you, but that doesn’t mean you get him all to yourself.”

“Mindy, it’s not like that at all.”

“I’ve been sitting here for the past two hours listening to the bed thumping against the wall and you moaning and crying out his name and other stuff I don’t even remember. Don’t you think that might make me just a little excited too?”

Julie started to reply, but could not think of a logical response. She turned to Taylor and asked, “What am I supposed to say? What am I supposed to do?”

“Say nothing and be happy for her.”

Mindy started walking to the bedroom and then turned to Taylor. “I’ll be waiting for you when you’re ready.”

Taylor could smell the very faint wisps of perfume in the air as he entered the room. Mindy had turned off the overhead light so that only light came from the small lamp on the night stand, effectively removing the youth of her face from his view. Now it was just the two of them and she knew what she wanted. “I’m only going to say this once, Taylor,” she said quietly. “I want you to do to me everything you did with her earlier today. Leave nothing out. I want to know it, feel it, and understand it. Never in my life have I ever seen my mother as happy as she is right now, and I would like to be able to feel that same happiness.”

“But you don’t have any idea...”

“Even if it hurts a lot. Promise me that you will do this.”

When he answered her, she threw her arms around his chest, pulled him to her and began to kiss him passionately.

Laying on her back, her small breasts al but disappeared but her nipples were already hard when he reached down to caress one. Even when he rubbed them harder, they responded well and caused her to moan softly. Taylor could feel Mindy’s legs moving around as she pulled her knees up, spread her thighs and then closed them again, all the result of her impatience and desire. She moved his hand from her breasts to her crotch and then kissed him even harder. Just the sight movement of their hands together stirred the air enough to allow the scent of her perfume to mix with the aroma of her excited sex, a blend impossible to ignore.
