The Sexiest Part of a Woman  Chapter 4b of 4 
Chapter 4b


"Come on.  Spit it out."

"Umm, could I have some more condoms?" she was beet red!

"Ho ho!  You didn't lose them did you?" I asked with a wink.

"Jack!  You're awful!  NO!  I didn't LOSE them.  They came in quite
handy thank you!  I could have used three of them!" she covered her
mouth when she let that slip out.

I looked at her and said "Hmmm, three huh? Wow, I guess you have more
than a super'brain' on your hands."

"Well, it wasn't like that.  The first one, well, it sort of got ruined
when we were putting it on..." she said sheepishly.

"Oh yeah, I forgot about that age.  It's ok Maria.  That happens.  It
means you really got him excited.  Are you ok?"  I wanted to make sure
she wasn't traumatized in any way.

"Yes." Maria said dreamily - so much for trauma.

"And how is Jose.  Is he ok?"

"Yes, he is really great!" and then covered her mouth again.

"That's good Maria.  No more third degree.  I'm not trying to pry.  I'm
just trying to make sure you're ok.  You'll let me know if you need
anything right?"

"Yes, but right now what I really need is..."

"I know, you need more condoms.  Look, I'll give you what I have.  It
seems I won't need them.  I'll buy some more so I have some on hand if
you need more. You just let me know.  In fact, I'll just show you where
I keep them and you don't have to be embarrassed by asking me.  How does
that sound?"

"Jack, you really are a great guy.  Tina is very lucky to have you."

"Um, yes, well, you need to let me know when the supply runs out so I
can buy more.  Ok?  How do you want to do that?"

"Gee, I guess I could leave a note on your refrigerator."

"Yes, but let's use a code word in case someone else sees it.  I really
don't want to explain who I'm buying these for.  What code word should
we use?"

"Gee, I don't know."

"How about 'bandaids'?  Dear Jack, please buy a gross of bandaids when
you're out.  This should last a week.  Thank you, Maria."

Maria was laughing so hard she fell off the chair.

I gave Maria my remaining 'bandaids' and put them on my shopping list.

I didn't see Maria or anybody on Friday.  I was getting really depressed
and thought I would go to the Station but as I grabbed my car keys I
just slumped on to my sofa - I didn't want to go anywhere.  I was
sitting there thinking how I've ruined my life when the phone rang.  I
looked at my watch and thought damn telemarketers!  I should just let it
ring.  On the third ring I decided I didn't want to listen to their crap
on my answering machine so I picked it up to chew them out.

"Jack! Jack is that you?"

"Tina?  Tina I've been calling and calling."  I felt tears well up in my
eyes.

"I know, you filled up my answering machine!  I told you I would be
away.  I hadn't planned to be away as long as I was but we landed a huge
deal and I had to close it.  I didn't know you had called and, while I
was away, I was trying to figure out how big a fool I should make of
myself."

"What do you mean?"

"Well, I thought you didn't want me after I talked about having a baby
but I couldn't give up on you and I was torn between driving you further
away from me or letting you slip away because I did nothing.  When I
heard your messages on the machine I realized what a stupid idiot I've
been.  Can I come over Jack?  I really need to hold you!"

"Oh God Tina! God please come over.  And Tina?"

"Yes, Jack?"

"Tina please drive very very carefully.  I can be patient for you."

Tina took a deep breath when she realized what I was saying and said "Of
course, Jack.  I will be very careful."

I hung up and sat down.  I was so totally drained I didn't want to move
until Tina arrived.  It seemed like forever when the doorbell finally
rang.  I got up and opened the door. Tina was there!  I couldn't believe
it!  I guess I had just expected that something would happen and I would
never see Tina again.  I cried out and grabbed her and hugged her and
couldn't let her go.  I kissed her for the longest time and she finally
said "So Jack?  Are you glad to see me?"

"Yes Tina, and I don't want to ever let you go."

"Well, I think I can handle that.  Let me come in and let's just hold
each other for a while?"

We did just that.  It was like our last night only different.  We went
to bed early and mostly held each other.  We made love but it started
out as a peaceful, kind of love, not a violent animal love.  I just
slipped inside her and we just held each other for the longest time
looking into each other's eyes.  We were together for the longest time
when I said "Tina I love you."  Tina smiled.  It was the smile that said
she understood me, the kind of smile that said she was incredibly happy
that I loved her, it was the smile that turned our easy, almost
motionless, love making into a wild passionate, screaming, thrusting,
hungry, you-can't-get-enough-of-it kind of love making.  It was
wonderful and we blissfully fell asleep like that with my shrinking
penis still inside her.

I felt a stir and woke up to see Tina looking at my face.  She kissed me
and asked "Jack? What do you think is the sexiest part of my body?"

I looked at her and smiled, loving her like I've never loved before. 
Tina's eyes widened and I felt her pussy grab my cock and we were soon
back in the throws of passion.  Once again I couldn't get enough of her
and she couldn't get enough of me.  Once again we rumbled the walls with
our screams of each other's names.

We woke late in the morning, it was almost noon.  We kissed but were
still satiated from the night before to do anything but hug and kiss. 
Tina stretched her arms and legs wide and said "Hmmm, I could stay naked
with you all day long."

"Sounds good to me.  Let's go get some sunshine." and I lifted her up
and carried her to the pool. 

As I carried her into the pool Tina said "Hmmm, returning to the scene
of the crime?"

"I'd call it the awakening."

Tina's eyes misted and hugged me and put her hand down to grab my cock
when we heard "Ho Ho!  I guess I win the bet."

We both dropped lower into the water and turned to see Joe standing at
the fence gate with a big shit-eating grin on his face.

"Joe!  Don't you ever knock?" I yelled at him.

"Hey, don't blame me!  I did knock and ring the doorbell but there was
no answer."  Damn!  I need to fix that!

"Well, as you can see we are, um, indisposed at the moment."

"Oh so that's what you call it!  Don't worry about me.  I'll just relax
in the chair enjoying the scenery.  You guys just continue, I'll be
fine." Joe said wickedly and sat in one of the deck chairs watching us
intently.

"Joe!  Hey, come on, at least give us some privacy to get out of the
pool."

"Hey, you can get out.  Don't mind me.  You aren't bothering me - too
much anyway." he smiled.

"Geez Joe, at least you can get us some towels."

"Ho Ho!  No towels huh?  Gee this is getting really interesting!  I
think I will hang around for a while."

I knew then we were defeated so I told Tina that I would go get some
towels and a bathrobe for her.  I was just about to climb out of the
pool when I heard "Hey Jack!  Oh Hey Tina!  I'm glad you're back!  Hey
Joe."

I quickly dropped back into the water and Joe roared.  "Hey Maria,
welcome.  Pull up a chair.  We were just about to have a nice little
visit with Jack and Tina here."

I groaned and Maria realized the condition we were in and she laughed
and pulled up a chair and said "Gee, thanks!  I don't mind if I do."

Tina and I looked at each other.  Now what do we do?

Maria said "Tina, why don't you come out.  I would like to tell you all
about this week."

Joe added "Yeah, Tina, you can sit right next to me." and Maria laughed.

"Oh shit" I thought.

Finally I said "Maria, as your employer I'm asking you to go get a
couple of towels for Tina and me."

Maria looked around and roared "Gee, you guys don't even have towels out
here?"  She looked at Joe and said "Joe, they don't even have towels out
here.  That doesn't seem like very good planning does it?"  Maria was
clearly having a good time with Joe over this.

Joe replied "I don't know Maria.  It depends on what they were planning. 
If, for example, they were planning to entertain us then I'd say it was
excellent planning!"  Maria cracked up heartily agreeing with Joe's
assessment. 

Maria added "Jack, I think you're not being a very good host.  Joe is
sitting here and you haven't offered him a drink."

Joe cracked up "Yeah Jack.  I think you should bring a round for all of
us."

Maria and Joe were laughing their asses off and slapping each other. 
High fiving on each jab they gave us and having a grand old time at our
expense.  I looked at Tina and Tina shrugged but didn't have any ideas. 
I couldn't stand the humiliation any longer and decided it was time to
go and get the towels anyway. 

I was walking toward the shallow end to get out of the pool past the
point of caring if Maria saw me naked since I knew she already had
anyway.  Joe and Maria quieted down when they saw what I was doing.  I
was about belly depth in the water and I was sure Maria was completely
focused on the still submerged part of my anatomy when I heard the Fence
Gate slam.  I dropped down again and we all turned and saw Theressa
standing at the entrance to the pool.

"OH CHRIST!" I thought to myself.  Maria saw her mother and immediately
jumped up and ran into my house.  Momentarily at a loss for words I
finally said "Hi Theressa!  How are you?"

She glared at me and said very pointedly "I want to talk to you!" and
then she added "Now, and in private!"  she looked around assessing the
situation and finished with "I'll be in my backyard!".  She turned and
slammed the fence gate on her way out.

"Oh shit!" A deathly still fell over the pool.  Joe jumped up and said
"I'll get your towels and bathrobes."  He ran into the house and came
out right away with the towels and robes.  He placed them on the side of
the pool and then said "I'll wait inside with Maria." and went back into
the house.

I looked at Tina and said "What's up?" 

Tina shrugged her shoulders and said "I don't know. She probably wasn't
too happy to see us naked in front of Maria.  Do you want me to go with
you and explain?"

"No, I can explain what happened I guess.  She did say 'alone'."

We both got out and dried off and wrapped our robes around us.  I peeked
over the fence and Theressa was pacing back and forth and it was clear
she was really angry.  She was clenching and shaking her fists and
talking to herself.  "Oh God!  This is going to take some explaining." I
thought as I went through the gate.

Theressa saw me approach and backed up a little bit but then seemed to
build some resolve and stood her ground.  I meekly said "What's up?"

Theressa's eyes flared but I saw she was fighting to stay in control of
herself.  She looked at me and said in a tremulous voice "Tell me what's
going on!"

"Well, Tina and I had just gotten in the pool and..."

"NOT THAT GOD DAMN IT!" and she blessed herself for having sworn.  "TELL
ME WHAT YOU'RE DOING TO MARIA!"

"Huh?  Well like I said we were in the pool not expecting anyone..."

"STOP!  YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN!  STOP TORTURING ME!  I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE! 
WHY MARIA?" she started to cry.

"Um, well Maria is a nice kid and..." Theressa came at me hitting me as
if she wanted to kill me.  I tried to hold her off without hurting her
and took a bunch of blows before I finally was able to grab her hands. 
She kicked me a few times but she was short enough I could hold her away
from me while we struggled.  I had no idea what the hell got her so mad.

"Theressa!  Stop!  What are you doing?  Why are you so mad?"  I shouted
at her.

She finally stopped struggling and collapsed to the ground bawling and
saying through her gasps "Maria was such a nice kid!  Why couldn't you
leave her alone?  Why did you have to pick on her?  She's fat for God's
sake!  Couldn't you find some skinny bitch who didn't care?  Why did you
have to pick on my Maria?" she was sobbing uncontrollably.

"Theressa.  I have no idea what you're talking about!  What do you mean
'pick on Maria'?  I haven't done anything to hurt her."  I was
completely confused.

"The new clothes, she's changed, she... she's a woman now!" and she
started bawling again.

The light finally came on!  Theressa was thinking I was having my way
with Maria.

"You're wrong Theressa!  You don't know how wrong you are!  I wouldn't
hurt Maria for anything.  Maria is paying for those new clothes by
taking care of Sammy and other odd jobs."

"YEAH RIGHT.  WHAT KIND OF FUCKING ODD JOBS?" Theressa screamed back.

"Um, like cleaning my pool.  Taking care of the yard.  Theressa, please
believe me.  I've been helping Maria because she was really sad about
being made fun of at school."

Theressa looked at me.  She was a mess and was still sniffing but said
"What do you mean?"

"Last week I heard Maria crying in your back yard.  She told me how kids
at school were calling her a 'fat pig'.  I tried to get her to calm down
but saw the clothes she was wearing was only inviting ridicule.  I asked
Tina to help me find some more complimentary clothes."

I could see Theressa at least believed part of the story as she said "I
tried to tell her about her clothes.  She wouldn't listen to me.  Why
would she listen to you?" she asked suspiciously.

"Theressa.  What 15 year old girl listens to her mother?" I immediately
regretted saying this because I saw it strike a very raw nerve. 
Theressa gasped and then bent over and was sobbing heavily.  I didn't
know what to say so I just put my arm around her and tried to comfort
her while she sobbed it out of her system.

She slowed and then said sobbingly "I wanted to protect her from doing
the same thing I did.  I love her, don't get me wrong, but I didn't want
her to go through what I did.  I was her age when..."

I really regretted my statement then and felt like a complete heel.
"Theressa I am really sorry I said what I said.  I didn't know and I
didn't mean to hurt you."

Theressa looked at me still sniffing.  I could see she didn't trust me
but was trying to figure everything out.  She simply said "Why?"

"Why did I help Maria?  Let's just say she struck an empathetic cord." 
I then told Theressa the story from start to finish leaving out the
parts about the condoms.  That's between Maria and her mom.

"Maria's seeing a boy?  A boy wants to go out with Maria?"  I could see
that she was dubious and suspicious that the boy had only one ulterior
motive.

"Theressa, I know what you're thinking but it's not like that.  The boy
wants to go out with Maria because he likes her.  She's changed just in
the last week.  Have you seen her in her new clothes?" Theressa shook
her head no. I said "Oh Theressa you would be amazed!  Maria looks so
pretty and confident now.   You know what she looked like before."
Theressa cringed and nodded. "You know what kind of boy, if any, she was
going to attract looking like that."

Theressa's eyes widened as realization struck.  She looked horrified and
tears welled up again.  "I wanted to be a good mother.  I've let her
down.  I was never there for her.  I could have lost her forever."

"Theressa you are a wonderful mother!  Maria is a great kid.  Why do you
think I wanted to help her?  I wanted Maria to invite you over so I
could tell you what a wonderful job you're doing raising her."

Theressa was confused "You did?  Maria never said anything about that."

"Well, I think she was afraid you might get upset and not permit her to
come over.  I didn't think she had told you." I conceded.

"I don't know.  I'm still confused.  I don't trust men and I still don't
know why you did this."

"Look, I understand why you don't trust men, me.  Talk to Tina.  She
spent a lot of time helping Maria shop for clothes.  Tina can tell you
what a wonderful child Maria is."

"I don't know Tina."

"Tina is my fiance." WOW! I didn't think about this until just now but
that is what I want.  I had a feeling of warmth flow through me when I
thought about this.  "She is a wonderful person and she loves Maria. 
Please talk to her.  I want you to know how wonderful Maria really is
and how excited and happy she is with her new life."

Theressa nodded and I helped her stand up.  We walked over to my yard
and I saw Tina, Joe, and Maria all huddled concerned about our
conversation.  I called Tina over and said "Tina, would you be willing
to talk to Theressa about Maria?"

"Sure Jack, I'd love to." she said with a concerned smile.  She searched
my face for clues as to what she should say but I purposefully kept a
poker face.  I didn't want Theressa to have any doubts about Tina's
comments.  Tina and Theressa went back into Theressa's yard and I joined
Joe and Maria.

I saw Maria was completely pertified and was shaking.  Joe was holding
her and gently rubbing her back to comfort her.  I decided to leave them
as they were.  But they both looked at me expectantly.  I shrugged and
try to explain as vaguely as I could get away with that it was just a
misunderstanding.  I didn't want Maria to know what Theressa had accused
me of.  I was afraid Maria would go off the deep end and do something
destructive.  Joe looked at me and he understood my reluctance to
discuss it in front of Maria so didn't press it.  Maria was too scared
to press it.

We waited for a long time and finally Joe hugged Maria and said to her
"Have you had breakfast?"  Maria meekly shook her head no and Joe said
"Well I make a mean flapjack.  Would you like some?"

I could see Maria wasn't sure what a flapjack was but agreed to go
probably just to do something.  Joe looked at me and I shook my head no. 
They went inside and I went over to the fence to see what was happening. 
I could see Tina and Theressa talking animatedly and decided they
probably didn't want to see me spying on them.  I started pacing by the
pool. 

A little while later Maria came out and handed me a drink.  She looked a
lot better and she said "Joe thought you might need this."  "It's a
Bloody Mary" she added as an afterthtought.  I thanked her and took a
sip "Christ almighty! That's spicy and potent."  I looked at Maria who
had a sly smile on her face and I said "Um, sorry Maria.  Please tell
Joe that I thank him for removing all of my taste buds in a single sip." 
Maria cracked up and said "I like your friend Joe.  He's a good guy."
and she skipped back to the house to have flapjacks with Joe.

I sipped my drink and was surprised that it was actually quite tasty
once I got past the sweat pouring off my brow.  I went to sit down in a
deck chair but had just sat down when I heard the fence gate creak.  I
jumped up and there was Theressa and Tina.  Tina had her arm around
Theressa's shoulder and Theressa's arm was around Tina's waist.  They
came up to me and Theressa said "I owe you a great apology and an even
greater thank you for saving my baby." She put her arms around me and
hugged me.  It was tentative at first, as if she wasn't practiced at
hugging, but then she hugged me hard and I could feel her gently
sobbing.  I put my arm around her and said "Theressa, you are the one
who did the great job raising your wonderful daughter.  I only helped
her out a bit."  Theressa continued to hold me and was sobbing harder
now and I looked to Tina for guidance.  She just smiled.  God I loved
that smile! 

Theressa settled down and I suggested we go inside.  Before we got to
the door we heard roars of laughter coming from the house.  When we went
in both Tina and Theressa cracked up and I saw the reason.  Joe was
showing Maria how to flip the flapjack and there were several marks on
my ceiling where they had flipped a little too hard.  Maria was just
flipping one and it came percariously close to the ceiling but turned
over gracefully and fell, correct side down into the pan.  Joe applauded
and then congratulated Maria on her successful flip.  It was only then
that they both realized we were watching.  I saw Maria quickly look up
at the ceiling hoping the damage wasn't too bad.  I saw Joe lean over
and whisper into Maria's ear and she had a look of surprise and said
"Really?" and Joe nodded yes.  Maria smiled and said "That's nice." and
continued to make flapjacks with Joe.

We all decided to have one of my world famous gourmet backyard cookouts
that evening and I'm sure the neighbors had wished we would all stop
laughing.  At one point I asked Maria what Joe had told her about the
ceiling and she smiled and said "Joe said not to worry because you would
have to be redecorating soon for the new baby.  Why didn't you guys tell
me you're having a baby?"  I looked at Joe and he winked at me.  I
looked at Tina, she hadn't heard our conversation and she looked curious
but smiled. God I loved that smile.  I turned back to Tina and said
"Well, it's still a ways off but Joe is right."

I heard Theressa roar with laughter at something Joe had said.  He
seemed to pause and then he said "Theressa, you have such a sexy smile."
