I arrived back in England in the last week of August. My mates had given up our Brooklands Close flat, and two of them (Brian and Phil) said I could sleep on the settee in the lounge of their new flat for the week before I left for Venice. In addition to all the gear I had stored at Brian's, my Mini was parked outside. So when I awoke the first morning, I set to servicing it to get it running again. I first had to buy a new battery, which used much of my spare money. But I had it running like a charm by mid-afternoon. After which, I placed an advert in the local rag, figuring it would sell quickly and could recoup my losses.
The following day, I woke up in an empty house with nothing much to do. It was a Wednesday, and the van advert would not post until Saturday. In her last letter, Penny said she had been to France for a week with her mother, but other than that, she had been at home bored most days. She had mentioned in her letters that she was looking forward to seeing me when I returned, so I decided to drive to Hamstead and surprise her.
I threw her present (The Purple People Eater) in the glove box and set off. I was a little nervous about seeing her, as I knew our relationship would not last much longer, and I felt it would be better to stay away. But my cock said otherwise, and seeing as I needed to take the Mini for a test drive, I headed off to see if she was home.
When I pulled outside her house, I saw her Ford Escort parked outside, so I assumed I would be in luck. However, her mother answered the door and quickly informed me that Penny and her friend Lynn were down in Cornwall in a cottage they had rented.
She invited me in, saying she needed to ask me a favour. I entered the house very reluctantly as I was sure she would make another attempt to get me in the sack. Why not? Go for it, I hear you say. I had a dozen reasons: First, I wanted to avoid getting involved and did not want to do that to Penny. I liked her, maybe even a little in love. Hell, she had given herself to me unreservedly and fulfilled my every wish, so I did not want to abuse our relationship. Even though I knew I'd unlikely see her after this week.
Her mother sat across from me in their parlour and started talking.
"I have to go down to Cornwall on Sunday and pick up the girls. I wondered if you would like to go down and pick them up instead. I'll pay for your fuel. I really don't want to drive all that way. You can take Penny's car if you like?"
I didn't hesitate. The following Wednesday, I was booked on the train and the ferry, so three days in Cornwall with Penny sounded just the ticket.
"Sure, I'll drive down. But I'll take my car. I've just got it going. I've tuned it up and put a new battery in it as I need to sell it. So it will be a good test drive to ensure it's running alright before I head to Venice next week."
"I didn't think you had enough seats for the two girls in your car?" she asked.
I realised she was right. My Mini Van only had the two seats in front. So I relented and said I'd return in the morning and pick up Penny's Escort. I also realised that I would need to catch the bus around, as I would need to leave the Mini with Brian and Phil in case there were some hits on my 'For Sale' advert.
The following day, around 10:00, I got to Penny's house. Penny's mother had written instructions on how to find the cottage, and she shoved some banknotes in my pocket. I made to refuse, but the fact was, I was pretty skint until I sold the Mini, so I only made a half-hearted effort to refuse her money.
It was a five-hour drive down to Cornwall; when I stopped to fill up the Escort, I found that Jenny's mother had slipped five twenty-pound notes in my pocket. Fuck! That was about four weeks' wages in those days, and filling the car cost little more than £3.00.
The girls were staying in a little village called Duloe. I arrived around 4:30 p.m. Penny's mother had called the girls and told them I was coming. So when I pulled up outside the cottage, two screaming girls rushed out to meet me. Before I got a chance to have a good look at Lynn, Penny had me in her bedroom, and we were bonking like mad. I never had time to get her present from the car.
Once we had finished, Penny hauled me out to the lounge and formally introduced me to Lynn. She was thin, an inch shorter than Penny, with pale skin and dark auburn hair. She wasn't as pretty as Penny, but I couldn't help but be interested in her, especially from all the stories Penny had told me about their sexual experimentation together.
Neither could cook, so we walked to the local pub and had dinner. The girls informed me they had eaten there most nights. I offered to pay. The money Penny's mother had given me was burning a hole in my pocket. But neither girl would hear of it, and Penny held me back as Lynn paid the bill.
Back in the cottage, Penny dragged me back to bed, and I gave her the present I'd bought in New York. She held the big purple dildo in her hand and nearly wet herself as she was so excited. Within minutes, I had it embedded deep between her legs, and we made love off and on for the next couple of hours.
In between bonks, she asked me about America and wanted me to tell her all about the American girls I had fucked. I had learned many years before that you should not talk about other affairs with a girlfriend. As much as they might say they wouldn't mind, it always turned bad once you opened your mouth. So I declined and tried to say I had been faithful. But Penny revealed that she had met my mates several times while I'd been gone, and one or more of them had let some of my conquests out of the bag.
"You tell me what you got up to over the holidays, and I'll tell you something," I said. Expecting that would close down Penny's questioning of me. But Penny jumped at the chance and opened up about her trip to France.
Her family owned a cottage in a small French village, and she had spent many summer holidays there. I knew she spoke fluent French, and I now understood that was due to all the holidays she had spent there when she was very young.
They had gone for a week, just her and her mother. The cottage had two bedrooms upstairs, but her mother made her sleep in the front conservatory downstairs. Penny had slept there before, as her younger brother always had the upstairs bedroom. But she had expected to sleep in the upstairs bedroom on that visit, seeing as her brother was not with them. Other than that, the first few days were uneventful, but on the third night, they were bored, and her mother suggested they go to a local bar for dinner. After they had eaten, they moved through to the bar and listened to locals singing and playing music. Whilst they sat listening, a man called Henri came over and asked to sit with them. She noted that her mother did not seem surprised, and from their subsequent conversation, Penny realised that they had known one another for some time, maybe even years. Some of Henri's friends joined them, and one of them asked her to dance.
When they finished dancing and returned to the table, she saw that her mother and Henri were missing. She asked the guy she had danced with where her mother was. The men all looked guilty, but one piped up and said she and Henri had gone to look at a car for sale.
I interjected and asked if she had made out with the guy she danced with. I had no reason to be jealous, but I was.
"No", she told me, "He was nice, but I think he may have been gay, as he made no advances at all."
She said her mother was away for over an hour, and when she returned, Penny knew from the look of her that she had been fucking Henri. He had not hung around. Penny suspected he was married and had to hurry home to his wife.
She didn't confront her mother, and her mother acted like nothing had happened. The following night, they returned to the bar again. Henri was there with a mate, and the two joined Penny and her mother for dinner. And after dinner, they moved with them to the bar. Henri's friend asked her to dance, and after an hour, the men escorted them home. Her mother invited them in, and the men poured the ladies aperitifs from a bottle they had brought. But before her mother had touched hers, Henri dragged her upstairs.
Once they had left, the other man came onto Penny, and she had let him take her to her bedroom and have his way. I was terribly jealous but wanted to know more. Shit, if you read about my Camp America experience, you will know I had done much worse in the months we were apart, so I bit my tongue and encouraged her to tell me all.
Penny told me she realised her mother's meeting up with Henri had been planned months before, which is why her mother insisted she sleep downstairs. Furthermore, she realised that the sounds she had heard on the first night at the cottage had been her mother sneaking Henri upstairs.
But, when she told me Henri's friend was older than her mother and that he had returned the next night and done her again, I could not keep my jealousy in check, and we had a huge argument. Penny rightly pointed out that I could not complain as she knew I had slept with more than one girl while I was over in the States. And she'd also seen me eying up Lynn and knew I wanted to fuck her. I fiercely denied this, all the time thinking I'd kill whichever mate it was that let my indiscretions in the US out of the bag.
When we woke in the morning, we settled our differences. I'd slept on it and realised I was being unreasonable, and Penny told me she had just been horny listening to her mother getting all the action, and it was only sex. We made up, and I got to use the Purple People Eater on her again. But I couldn't keep the thought of some older married man fucking her out of my mind. And I dropped snide remarks several times that day, attempting to find out if the guy was a better lover than me. It was stupid, really, as it only caused friction, and I was pretty sure this would be my last weekend with Penny.
I drove the girls around the south coast of Cornwall that day. We had lunch at Polperro and went to Falmouth, where I found a supermarket and bought all the ingredients to cook the girls up a good Kiwi lamb roast. We didn't hug the coast on the way back to Duloe but took the main road, as I needed to get the leg of lamb in the oven.
When we got home, Lynn went for a walk, leaving Penny and me to talk. She hit me up about all my snide remarks, saying they were petty, and asked what I wanted to know. I asked in a very roundabout way if the French guy was better than me.
She laughed. "He was nothing like you. And I didn't particularly like him. But the sex was great, very different to ours. He was old, I think about fifty. He was short, the same height as me, and had a medium build but with a huge pot belly. He was crude and called me rude names as we fucked. That turned me on. But I would never entertain the thought of looking at him if you had been there."
Her explanation only made me more jealous. The green-eyed monster bit into my gut and made all logical thoughts disappear. I struggled to hide my feelings. Penny tried to ease my concerns and pouted sexily at me, trying to get me to smile. But I dug in and immersed myself in cooking dinner. Once I had the lamb roast in the oven, I set to getting veggies ready. Then, I began making a dessert.
It was to be a Pavlova. Who actually created it first is always disputed between Australians and New Zealanders. It's a crispy meringue made from egg whites and has a whipped cream topping, which I intended to cover with a mixture of berries. If I'd been back home, I'd have used Kiwifruit on top, but I could not find any in the supermarket.
By the time we sat down to dinner, I'd calmed down. Lynn had arrived back from her walk, and I flirted with her, hoping to piss Penny off. But Penny seemed to enjoy my throwing sexual innuendos at Lynn and making her blush.
The girls were amazed at the meal I had cooked. They both overate and, by 8:30, were ready for bed. Penny insisted we made love, and I tried to pretend I was as much into it as her. But flashes of some dirty old French peasant fucking her kept flashing into my mind. When she came, I also pretended I'd cum also, and I lay back, just wanting to sleep.
But Penny started talking.
"Do you want to fuck Lynn?" she exclaimed.
"No!" I indignantly replied. Thinking she was trying to start our argument again. But she followed up by saying that Lynn wanted to lose her virginity. And that it turned her on to think of me taking it. I couldn't believe my luck, but I played it cool. Believing that if I showed too much enthusiasm, she would get pissed with me. But it quickly became apparent that Penny was just as keen to have a threesome as I was.
So I strung her out for a bit and acted very coy. Then, reluctantly, I agreed to do the deed. Penny let out a whoop of joy, leapt from the bed and raced out of the bedroom to get Lynn. I realised I needed to use the toilet, so I got up and followed her. I crossed the hall into the bathroom, quietly emptied my bladder, gave myself a good flannel wash, and dabbed a couple of drops of her dads's cologne under my arms.
When I opened the bathroom door, I could hear Penny and Lyn speaking. Lynn said she couldn't, as she was too embarrassed. Penny argued against all Lynn's objections, saying that I really liked her and was turned on by her body.
I quickly and silently crossed the hall and climbed back into bed. I listened to their murmured conversation for the next ten minutes, trying to make out some of what they were saying. Almost asleep, our bedroom door opened, and Penny led a timid Lynn into the bedroom.
