- A NEW YEAR
-
- Mark had not enjoyed New Year's Eve since the year in high school when he and
- Buddy waited outside the liquor store and scored a bottle of gin a college guy
- bought for them. Since then, he'd gone to polite parties, made uneasy
- chitchat, and left alone soon after midnight.
-
- Still, Mark had been glad when Buddy phoned him at the dorm. New Year's party
- at Greg's house. Sure, why not? Now, as he drove down the hill toward Greg's,
- Mark began his pre-party confidence rap:
-
- Weight: check. Actually I'm thin right now. Tall, dark and thin. Hair looks
- good. Sharp new sweater. Remember to drink the first beer fast. Be loose.
- Smile. Circulate. Meet all available women. Look into their eyes, deeply,
- deeply. You are irresistible, sensitve, patient--oh, so patient. Hell, I was
- patient with Dora. Left high school a virgin. Wish I'd stayed one after laying
- that nympho Margaret while Will watched. Okay, this party isn't a swap meet,
- just the old gang looking for a good time. And this year, I am going to have a
- good time!!
-
- And it wasn't a bad time at all. Ten guys, ten women, about half couples, half
- singles. Mark downed three beers trading notes with the guys, and then found
- himself warmly reminiscing with Sue, his first date ever in junior high. Sue
- was majoring in forestry at UC Davis and had been seeing a guy named Robert
- for more than a year. That revelation made Mark both time-conscious and guilty
- that he was losing interest in Sue's story.
-
- Mark politely disengaged, then wandered into a conversation with Buddy and
- Janet, seldom shall they part, Walter and Vivian, and Elaine.
-
- Elaine. A monument, Elaine. Nearly straight A's in high school, friendly but
- aloof. Promising curves. Dark, curly hair. A too-understanding look. Mark had
- not been ready for an Elaine, and now, as he glanced up at her, a sensation of
- chilling anxiety overwhelmed him.
-
- Elaine was not smiling at him the way people smile at parties. She was smiling
- as if he had returned from the seas, as if ...
-
- "I was hoping you'd be here, Mark."
-
- (Okay, get it together. Steady, steady. Smile. Good.) "It's great to see you
- Elaine. How's Berkeley?"
-
- Unbelievable. The others were wandering off. Elaine walked up to him, The
- Smile playing across her soft, wise face. "Berkeley has its moments, but I
- want to know about you. Let's sit down somewhere."
-
- Detour for beer. A couch. Elaine: "Mark, I don't want to make you uptight, but
- I promised myself this if you were at the party, so here it goes. In high
- school, I always hoped you'd take me out. I was too shy to do anything about
- it, or about dating at all. I know we're different now, but maybe we can leave
- early and find out about each other.
-

-
- Twenty after midnight. Mark and Elaine at Howard Johnson's, ignoring burgers.
- Mark, wondering whether he's simply digging being wanted or whether the
- incredible pull he's feeling toward Elaine is real. She tells him about her
- two lovers, her two breakups, the pressure of her studies, the longing she
- feels for a relationship with all the trimmings--care, support, sharing.
- There's no question about the entree.
-
- Mark relates his non-history candidly. "Dora and I were shy, even after a
- year. I think our shyness about sex kept us from getting close in other ways.
- At UCLA it's been a lot of studying, a few dates and that magic encounter with
- Margaret. But this is going to be my year."
-
- "Do you know what you want, Mark? What's your image?"
-
- "Equal parts libido and friendship. She's a bit overwhelmed taking care of her
- Uncle Fred's summer home at Malibu. She spots me one day as I'm handily
- repairing the dorm bike rack. She asks me if I can lend her a hand at the
- beach. The beginning of an epoch."
-
- Elaine, smiling and shaking her head with delight: "My folks are in Hawaii and
- one of the kitchen cabinet doors is loose. Want to tempt fate?"
-
- In the front door two steps and locked in a clinch. Elaine's lips like melting
- butter, her tongue gently inquisitive. Mark's hands wildly stroking her back,
- her sides, her ass. Elaine, clutching at his shoulders, rubbing his hair.
-
- On the floor, frenching, tearing off each other's clothes. His tongue rolling
- through neck hollow and down, into the valley of her breasts, now up, reveling
- in the firmness of her left nipple. She moans as he sucks, hard, his right
- hand moving to her other breast, stroking, kneading, pressing and rolling the
- nipple. His left hand finds her hot and moist. His middle finger probes,
- joined by an index finger with radar for her clit. Her moans become higher,
- shorter bursts that spur him to stronger movements with his fingers, harder
- stroking with his tongue as he sucks. With a sustained scream Elaine arches
- and comes.
-
- Mark has never felt so virile, competent and hot. Resting on an elbow, waiting
- for Elaine's panting to subside, he focuses on his cock. (Fuck her, you're
- gonna fuck her hard, fuck her, fuck her.) It's turning him on too much. He
- shakes off the sensation and blurts: "Pill, you on the pill?"
-
- "Yes, and no diseases. If you have any problems, say so fast," and she slides
- around to his ramrod and takes the head in her mouth, rolling her tongue
- around it, sucking. Mark lets out a loud "aaaaaaaaah!!" and reaches for her
- ass. He pushes her to him and plunges his tongue into her. She is slowly
- moving her lips up and down on him, grabbing handfulls of his ass. Mark's
- going to pop soon, but he is light years beyond restraint. Unbelievably, she
- rolls under him, and says, "Go." Mark manages four strokes and explodes.
-
- In the shower together. Mark: "Why me, Elaine?"
-
- "I liked your mind, and I thought you were cute. I fantasized about you. I
- can't believe it's happening like this."
-
- "Shut your eyes, Elaine." Kneeling down to her, tongue on her, in her, the hot
- water playing on his back, her taste and silkiness and the return of her moans
- reawakening him. Thinking he could die this way.
-
- "Mark, it's so intense! Let's dry each other off."
-

-
- As he tamped at Elaine, Mark was struck by the whiteness of her skin and the
- beauty of her breasts, large, firm and crowned by delicate pink tits, hard
- nipples. Her hand reached for him, found him ready. "Perfect," she said. They
- both laughed as his cock bobbed.
-
- In bed. In Elaine. Enjoying self-control, and her moans, her soft walls, her
- breasts, her. Steady, serious strokes. Elaine's feet up and around him. "Give
- it to me Mark, do it." Mindsnap. Banging, pumping, fucking her, hard. More,
- more. Fucking, fucking, and that scream again, high and sustained. Mark felt
- the come rising. He slammed again, again, as hard as he could, his mind
- flashing vivid emerald patterns as an incredible spurt surged through him and
- his screams joined Elaine's. Mark blasted and yelled, felt turned inside out,
- saw colors never seen, felt pleasure beyond imagination, and then, still
- pumping and never wanting to stop, he snapped clear. There lay Elaine, gasping
- and smiling, still moving with him. Their eyes gently engaged and they held
- each other tightly as the aftershocks subsided.
