Trying to get home.

He slowly wandered the parking lot. He would never forget what happened in that laundry room for the rest of his life. Helen… Why—why would she… Suddenly a thought came to his mind. Maybe she knows about the palace? A long shot perhaps, but it wouldn’t hurt to ask. He turned around and walked back to that room. His sisters were definitely waiting for him at this point, hopefully they don’t leave without him. He spent a lot of time after practice waiting around.

He walked back in without knocking. He thought maybe he would catch Helen touching herself, but she was still just folding clothes.

“Oh, Watson, dear. Did you forget something?” She smiled. “Another pair, perhaps?”

He blushed red. “No hehe, I actually wanted to ask you something.”

“Of course, my love.” She gives him her full attention.

“This may be completely strange, and you may not know what the hell I’m talking about. I don’t even really know. But do you know what the palace is?”

Helens eyes widened, and her countenance dropped. Watson had his answer. She knew something alright.

“Helen, what is it? What’s wrong?”

“Watson, you’re a very sweet, handsome young man. Please stay that way my boy.” She caresses his cheek with her hand and gently kisses him.

He liked being kissed, but the way she said it worried him. “I’m not sure what you mean. You’re kinda scaring me, Helen.”

“You don’t need to be scared. Some things are just… better not talked about.” Just then Watson got a phone call.

“Hey Cam’” His sister is calling him. “Shit sorry, I got caught up after cross country. WHAT! You left already! Dude what the fuck come back and get me. Cam please!” He hung up the phone. “Damn it.”

“What’s the matter, dear?”

“My sisters went home already. They got tired of waiting for me.”

“Do you have a way to get home?” she asked, very concerned. She spoke to him like he was her son, her husband, her lover, and confidant all at once.

“I’m not sure. I think so? I’ll have to make some calls.”

“I could take you home.” She had a beaming smile on her face. Thrilled to be helpful. He only desire to serve and be appreciated.

“Really? That would be amazing. Thank you so much. When were you going to leave?”

“Give me about 30 minutes to finish up here and then we can walk to my car, okay?” She touched his chest with her hand and went back to her clothes. He could tell she may have wanted to touch him more, but Helen is as responsible as she is affectionate.

As she folded clothes Watson spoke to her, like she was his best friend. “So how many other boys have you lured in here to seduce?” He jabbed at her with a joke.

“Lured? Seduced? Excuse me. You walked in here on your very own. And if anything, you seduced me, my boy.”

“And how did I do that?”

“I mean you looked so cute. All nervous and blushing. I think I decided to help you as soon as you walked in. And when I saw you smelling sweet Mary’s shorts like that, well… Excuse me, I’m saying too much.”

He felt so loved. So seen. So cared for and pursued. He didn’t know what he was feeling, but he felt a connection to this lady he hadn’t experienced before. “You decided as soon as I walked in?”

“Yes, I think so. If the opportunity arose. I would never have initiated it. But you seemed so comfortable, you acted as if I wasn’t here.”

“To be honest I forgot you were hehe. Her smell is intoxicating. They’re burning a whole in my pocket right now.”

“Yes, I understand.” Watson thought she would feel bad when he said this, but she didn’t. There wasn’t a single tone of jealousy in her voice when he mentioned Mary. “What happened today that drove you mad after her, if you don’t mind me asking?”

“She gave me this look while we were running. I cant explain it. I felt like she looked right through me into my soul. And then I brought her some water, and she grabbed it and fell on top of me. She sat directly on my dick when she fell. I’m not sure if she noticed, but then when we got up, I stared directly at her… camel toe that was sticking out. I’m not sure if she noticed that either. And then she looked me dead in the eye and adjusted her pants by her crotch. I just had to… I just had to know what she smelled like. What she tasted like.”

Helen had begun to breathe heavily. “Oh my… Watson. Yes, I can see how that would make someone go crazy. I think I lost myself a bit just hearing you tell it.”

Watson took that a cue to approach her. He walked up behind her and breathed on her neck.

“Okay dear, I’m all finished here. Ready to go?” She turned around and smiled at him. Her cheeks were a little flushed. She definitely seemed turned on, but she was determined to not let him touch her.

“Oh. Yeah, I’m ready. I’ll follow you.” She sensed the disappointment in his voice. They started to walk through the parking lot.

“Watson, I’m an old woman. I know you want to make me feel good like I made you feel good, but it’s really okay, I’m so happy I could make you feel good.” She gave him a big, endearing, happy smile.

“You seem intent on not letting me.”

She blushed. “Yes well… I’m a woman after all.” They arrived at her car. They got it and Helen began to drive him home.

“Do you mind if I ask you something?”

“Of course, love”

“When’s the last time you saw a penis? You said it had been a long time.”

A deep sadness came to her face. “Hm. Well. My husband died about 5 years ago. So, some time before he died.”

Watson felt regret instantly. “Helen—I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean to—”

“Oh, stop it. You didn’t know. I appreciate you asking.”

“I feel like an asshole.”

“Oh darling, don’t. This afternoon, for the first time in a long time, you made me feel sexy, and wanted, and desirable. I can’t tell you how much that meant to me.” They shared a long and intense look. They shared a love neither of them understood, and they didn’t need to discuss it. “You also have some very nice balls.”

“Hehe really?”

“Mm, yes. Very good size, quite firm. You smell very musky and nice.”

“Well, I can honestly say no one has ever said that to me before.”

“Well, what a shame.”
