3. Be it Ever So Humble... Laurie retrieved her car (I had taken the bus that morning, about 70 years ago), and we headed east, toward Bexley. It was two short cigarettes to her house. As Laurie and I exhaled our first puffs, smoke spreading over the windshield, I cracked my window a couple of inches. "Don't do that!" said Laurie, who was driving. "It's cold! Also, we need that smoke. It increases the value of the cigarettes." Chagrined, I closed the window. My eyes were still watering from the restaurant. Smoker or no, I would need to get acclimated to the incredible tolerance for smoke here. I looked forward to the process. When we turned north on Columbia, I was a little surprised. This was definitely the high-rent district, a stone's throw from the governor's mansion. When we pulled into the driveway of an equally impressive estate, I blinked. Then I remembered a piece of financial advice I had given to her great-grandmother and understood. This was one rich...lovely lady. We emerged from the clinging cloud inside the car, and entered Laurie's Xanadu. Laurie mixed a pitcher of dry martinis (ah! Tradition!) and we retired to the media room. Yes, she had a media room. She had more rooms than they have names for. One wall of the room featured the most elaborate audio-visual setup I'd seen outside of a studio. A Sony 50-inch direct-view TV, Studer Revox and Nachimichi audio components, Super VHS deck, the works. She put on a Mannheim Steamroller disc ('twas the season, after all), and I sat on a leather loveseat that molded itself lovingly to my contours. When she joined me, the soft leather seemed to squish us together like a good loveseat should. We sipped martinis. We talked. We smoked. I had never been more comfortable. "There's one thing I'm curious about," I started. Actually, there were about 10,000 things, but I had to start somewhere. "How is it your name is Banning? Didn't any of your...forebears take her husband's name?" Laurie chucked, expelling smoke like a schoolgirl. "My great-grandmother Doris started the tradition. She appeared in a couple of silent films, "Pearl of the Orient" and "Swashbuckler Alley." She decided to keep her "stage name," and the tradition stuck. It's nothing unusual today, as you should know if you're a sensitive New Age guy." "My middle name," I said, wishing it was. I try always to give only my last name. Grant, just Grant. My other two names don't bear repeating. "I have her films on tape somewhere..." she said. "Well, pop one in. I'd like to see her..." again, I didn't add. We were still playing our "mysterious stranger" parts. We watched some of "Pearl of the Orient," her only starring role. She had some good, seductive smoking scenes in it, especially when the handsome tramp steamer captain first finds her, a mysterious white woman in a Singapore bar. She lights up as he sits at her corner table, exhales in his face, and smoke continues to billow from her mouth and nose as she soundlessly speaks. We were doing a lot of smoking ourselves as we watched. The loveseat was enveloped in a blue-white haze, smoke hanging endlessly in the still air. We reinhaled our own exhales, basking in the friendly warmth and sweet odors. By now my left arm was around her soft shoulders, and my right hand was beginning an exploratory mission to her thigh. She didn't seem to mind a bit. She nestled closer (which was a feat in self) smoke pouring forth with her contended sigh. She kissed my cheek and whispered in my ear. I could feel her warm, smoky breath on the sensitive tissues. "Well, if you're not sure you have anywhere to go, and it's a pigsty if you do, why don't you stay with me tonight?" Call me anything you want, but don't call me late for sex. Electronics powering down and other systems powering up, we ascended to the third floor. Laurie's bedroom was just slightly smaller than Ohio Stadium, and her bed would have comfortably slept any of the teams which play there. I was a little intimidated, I'll admit. "I hope I can find you in that bed," I said. "Why, Mr. Grant!" She looked at me sternly. "Whatever gave you the idea you're sleeping in THIS room?" The act lacked conviction, however, since we were both mostly undressed by then. As she shed her last garments, I became breathless with admiration and again had to restrain some involuntary muscles. Her breasts were even larger than I'd guessed, and pleasingly defiant of gravity. Her hips swelled like gentle grassy hills below her narrow waist. I was right about the baby fat. The little blond thatch on her mons veneris looked already pearly with dew in the indirect lighting. As I was preparing to impale her where she stood (or so my glands were urging), she looked at me seriously. "There is one thing I must know." "What's that?" "Did you sleep with my mother?" After I climbed back to my feet from where I'd fallen down, I managed to choke out a reply "No! Of course not. I never...I mean I didn't..." A lower extremity had shifted from "attention" to "at ease." "It's all right, Grant. I didn't really think you had. I just needed to hear you say it." She sat on the edge of the immense bed and patted the place by her side. I found my pack, but it was empty. I grabbed a glass ashtray instead while Laurie uncovered her purse from the floor beneath her bra. Her purse was a little like a good guy's gun in a bad action movie. It never ran out of cigarettes. I sat close by on the bed, the ashtray sitting over my withered member. We lit up, and rivers of smoothly flowing smoke accompanied her words. "My mother, you know, was in Dallas, when it happened. The assassination. She's told the story a thousand times. She was at ground zero, in a soda fountain. She met a boy that day, a boy who taught her to inhale." As if to demonstrate, she blew a fountain of smoke from deep with her overexpanded chest. "That boy had your name. It's an unusual name." "Thank god for small favors," I quipped. I noticed the ashtray was beginning to develop a life of its own. I shifted it on my lap. "It was all the tension after that that made mom a confirmed smoker for life. But that's not what she remembered most. The thing was, this boy seemed to know what was coming. He ran out and chased the motorcade just before the shooting started. She never saw him again." "Ummmm," I added enlighteningly. "The FBI didn't give up questioning her, or the kids who were with her that day, for years. They weren't satisfied that a boy could come from nowhere and return to nowhere without anyone knowing SOMETHING about him. And after Oswald mentioned him..." "Oswald?" I asked. This was getting close to something I didn't want to remember, 33 years ago but not even yesterday to me. The ashtray ceased its stirring. "He told the police he bummed a light from some kid near the plaza. The kid had blood on his pants. Said the police should be looking for that boy, not him." She paused to empty her lungs once more of white smoke. Jesus! I'd almost given Oswald an alibi! "Anyway, they never found him, Oswald was killed, and eventually they left mother alone." "What do you want me to say, Laurie? That the boy was me? It was. But someday I want to hear your story..." Someday. I was hoping other matters would come up shortly. "Eventually." She smiled and crushed out her cigarette, blowing smoke at my crotch. The ashtray twitched, tilting once more. "I wanted to know for sure it was you so I could thank you." "Thank me? For what?" "For making a smoker of my mom. If she had given up on it, I might never have started. And I do so love to smoke." "But everyone smokes here!" I said, confused. "Surely you would have..." "Yes, everyone smokes here, or almost." Again, that mysterious smile. "Does everyone have sex here?" "No...at least not with just anyone." "How about us?" I had to grip the ashtray as I saw her eyes flash. "Good idea." The ashtray fell to the floor. We ignored it. Somehow we found each other in the center of that awesome bed. Buried under a comforter against the chill, I learned again how wonderful it was to hug a warm girl on a cold night. Caressing Laurie was like stroking an infant; skin newly made, soft as eiderdown, infinitely pliable. I wanted to know every part of her body better than she did herself, her satiny breasts, firm but squishy tummy, her endless, smooth thighs and calves. Her hair enwrapped me like a living thing, looking like spun white gold, but infinitely more malleable and somehow as warming as her enveloping flesh. Kissing her lips, tasting the lingering traces of mentholated smoke, probing deeply with my tongue. Kissing her breasts. Kissing everywhere. First times are usually unsatisfactory, sometimes disastrous. This one I wanted to be perfect. I would be patient, loving, caressing, sacrificing my own pleasure for hers. Nothing would be rushed. Everything would go slowly. I was in total control. That is, I was in control until my wandering fingers found the moist cleft between those marvelous thighs. Moist? It was slicker than Niagara Falls! Suddenly she was pressing against me with urgency. She was getting impatient! Gently, she pressed me down on my back and straddled my hips, making of the comforter a tent above us. As she lowered herself onto my penis, I had again the sensation of coming home. At that moment, we were one person. As she bent to kiss me, I half-saw her arm reaching under the cover. It returned with an ashtray, cigarettes, and a lighter. "This won't bother you, will it, darling?" she said huskily, beginning to slide up and down on my pelvis. Finding the rhythm, I pushed up with my hips in time with her strokes. "We do have to keep to our schedule." It was all I could do not to answer with an explosion of semen inside her. This was a fantasy long-treasured but never achieved. "No, no, please do," I managed. "We don't mind at all if you smoke..." With a smoothness that suggested practice (yeah? With who?), she withdrew a cigarette for each of us and placed one in her lips, one in mine. She clicked the lighter between our faces, and the tips of our cigarettes found the flame together. We dragged heavily in unison, and our exhales made of the comforter-tent a smoky cave of warmth and pleasure. How I held my load through that I'll never know. There should be some sort of presidential award for it. However, I was determined not to lose it until Laurie came. I was 36 years old, and could not reliably depend on more than one pop per night. As it turned out, my fears were again misplaced... Another minute, another fantasy fulfilled. Laurie took a long, slow drag, and as she removed her cigarette she fastened her smoky lips to mine. I greedily sucked the smoke from her lungs, and as we parted, I let the smoke escape convulsively with little moans, tilting my head back, trying to covey my excitement to her. It worked. Her thighs clamped my hips with brutal pressure, and I could feel the small muscles in her legs spasm. Her tummy twitched, her breasts shook, her head snapped back as the orgasm shot up her spine and into her brain. "Uhnnnn..." She made a sound as if shot, a cry of shock, surprise, and pure pleasure. Wisps of smoke escaped her mouth as she shivered. Hearing and seeing this, my orgasm instantly followed, rocketing through me like a streak of fire and electricity. I nearly threw her off with the intensity of my reaction. She took a drag from her cigarette, thinking it done, but amazingly I was still hard, still stroking. Again, the orgasm took her unawares, and smoke exploded from her mouth and nose as her body shook, not once but many times, until she collapsed on me, limp and gasping. I saw through my own fog of pleasure that she had dropped her cigarette. It lay burning on the sheet. I reached weakly, but she retrieved it first. "Don't worry....," she breathed weakly. "Everything's...completely fireproof." Fireproof sheets, I thought. Makes a lot of sense... How many times did we make love that night? I can't say, but it was several and then some. One thing I remember is holding her close at some unknown hour of the night, lazing in afterglow, sharing a series of cigarettes. It was so smoky in the room by then it was as if the bed was a raft becalmed in the fog, floating on a still ocean. We shared smoky kisses, and the first time I saw her exhale a puff I had inhaled, the beast with two backs returned yet again. "I think..." I spoke softly, "We made the RDA..." "Yes," Laurie said, exhaling one last plume before unconsciousness took us, "and for more than just smoking..." Sadly, even the most magical nights are followed by a morning after. As an alarm sounded, I first thing I was aware of was the need for a smoke. The second was a never before experienced empty, achy feeling in my cojones. I had been squeezed dry and then some. It was a sort of pleasure/pain mix that I definitely wanted to experience again. Which led to a less pleasant thought. I hadn't worn a condom last night, and had failed to ask Laurie if she was "protected." Usually I'm more responsible than that. I didn't yet know of the AIDS immunity drug in cigarettes, but I was not so much worried about that as about that other, more common disorder of the female reproductive system that was very draining on the wallet. However, my question was answered when I found Laurie's pack of cigarettes. Printed on the front panel in small letters were the words "Female Contraceptive Added." They think of everything, don't they? |
