Chapter 1



There's sure not much to do when you're a sixteen year old boy living in Riverton, a small river town in southeast Missouri. Unless you can call going to school nine months out of the year exciting. I don't really mind school, but I can't say that I'm excited every morning when I have to get up and go either.

Mom and Dad both work and are gone when my alarm goes off in the mornings. It's a major feat for me to even find the energy to get out of bed, get a shower and get dressed.

What I need is a job. A part time job that will fill the hours that I'm not sleeping or in school. I want a car, any car is fine with me, as long as I can get around without having to ride my bike or hitch a ride with Mom or Dad.

I know a couple of girls that I think look good and I like being around, they act kinda like they like me too and I wanted to ask one of them out.

It's hard for a boy to ask a girl out and have to pick her up for a date, when he's walking or riding a bike.

I can't really see me sacking groceries or stocking shelves and there just isn't a lot of other jobs available in this small town I live in.

The second Monday after school opened the third week of August in 1965, I was walking to school on the same sidewalk and the same street I most always walked, when I heard the sound of a horn.

I looked up to see a woman parked in front of the small wooden garage where Mr. Patch Coleman had his repair shop. Her hood was up on her car and she was tinkering under the hood, with something and cussing like a sailor.

Well, the way I had always heard folks say a sailor cussed cause I had never known a sailor myself.

This woman was really mad and just as I walked by, she looked at me with a scowl.

"Young man, do you know Mr. Coleman and what time he opens this God forsaken shit hole of a repair shop of his?" She said as if she were mad at me.

She was taller than me by two inches, with her high heels on and she wasn't bad looking at all. She was dressed in a conservative gray business suit with a skirt that came to her knees and a short jacket over her white frilly blouse. Nope, she wasn't bad looking at all and I guessed her to be at least twenty years old.

"Well Ma'am, I know him a little, but that's about all."

"Do you know anything at all about cars then? This damned thing is about to drive me fucking crazy and I need to get over to Martinsville to work."

"Not really Ma'am, but I'll look under there if you like and see if I can spot something that might be wrong, I help my Dad service his and watch him tinker with it."

"Well throw them books on my seat and get your ass over here.

"I'm in a hurry and it looks like Mr. Coleman's gonna sleep all day."

"Yes Ma'am," I said, as I put my books on her seat, on the driver's side and walked around to the front of the car.

"Start it up, if it'll run," I told her.

"Well of course it will run, I drove it here. You must be a real dumb-ass," She scowled again and I almost got my books and walked off.

But I didn't.

She started the car and stepped on the gas, the thing was miss-firing so bad it was shaking the whole car.

"Shut if off Ma'am," I hollered at her and started moving the spark plug wires and coil wires and anything I could see that might be loose under there. I had seen my Dad do this lots of times and I did what he did.

Sure enough, I found two spark plug wires that had backed off the tip of the spark plug and knew that would make the car mis-fire. I shoved the rubber boot on the end of the spark plug wires up tight on all the spark plugs and looked the coil wires over good.

There was a small strand of wire on one terminal, that was sticking out close to the main coil wire and I twisted it back on the terminal with the other strands. She was all under the hood with her neck strained out to see what I was doing.

"Crank it up now Ma'am and see if that's any better."

"Hell, you didn't do a damn thing but fiddle with the wires. How in the hell do you think that would make the motor run better? I'm telling you there's some thing bad wrong with this fucking piece of shit car," She was madder'n hell now, like it was all my fault she was late and her car was messing up.

She hit the starter, the car fired off and ran like it was new.

I picked up a grease rag laying near the door of the garage, wiping my hands as she got out of her car and walked up to me.

"You need to open up your own shop, how much do I owe you?" She asked as she smiled and fumbled in her purse."

"Ma'am, you don't owe me anything. I'm just glad your car's running good and you can get on over to Martinsville now."

"Nonsense, here take this dollar at least," She smiled.

"Ma'am, you keep your dollar and have a good day," That pissed me off, if she hadn't offered to pay me anything, I would've accepted that. But to offer me a danged dollar was like a slap in the face.

I saw Mr. Patch Coleman walk out of the side door of his house and head over to his shop.

"Good Morning folks, sorry I was a little late this morning, had to help my wife. She's in a wheelchair and can't do some things for herself at times. What can I do for you folks this morning?"

"Well it's about fucking time you got out here, my car engine was running bad, this young man fixed the fucking thing for me, no thanks to your lazy ass. I tried to pay him a dollar and he refused," She railed at him.

"What was wrong with it, Danny?" He turned to me. I didn't even know that he knew me, let alone my name.

"Just some plug wires that had backed off the plugs a bit and a small ground wire on the coil that was jumping fire from the main coil wire that runs to the distributor cap."

"Ma'am, you owe this boy fifteen dollars and unless you pay, I'm impounding your car," He said as he walked by her and took the keys out of the ignition.

"You can't do this, you sorry son-of-a-bitch, you weren't even open for business and you never even touched my car. I'll have the police on your sorry ass before you can turn around," She was really mad and cussing now.

"You're vehicle is on my property. You pulled in here for repairs and your car has been repaired. This young man works for me as of this morning, if you don't pay him, I'll be the one to call the police and have them impound the car at the city hall until the bill is paid. You'll have to pay the fee to get it out, as well as the bill for the repairs," Mr. Coleman looked her in the eye and talked to her in a steady voice that left no doubt that he was telling her the truth.

"Here's your God Damned money. I'll have my daddy come down here and take up this matter with you. You won't get away with this, you just wait until you find out who my daddy is, you'll wish you had never met me," She screamed, threw a five and a ten dollar bill at me and started crying.

"I already wish I had never met you Ma'am. Now clear my driveway so I can open for business.

By the way, tell your daddy to come on down and have a cup of coffee with me sometime, I ain't seen the Mayor in a while," Mr. Coleman smiled at her and handed her the keys to her car.

She slammed the car in reverse, backed out of the driveway and took off down the street like she was in a race.

"Danny, I appreciate what you did by helping that girl. I hate that she was rude with you and that she acted like a fool out here. You come on by here after school today and you can help me clean up this place and do small repairs like the one you just did. Most of my mechanical work is just what you did, maybe changing points and plugs once in a while and I'll teach you how to do that. I've been needing some help anyway," He told me.

"Thanks Mr. Coleman, I'll be here as soon as school's out." I said as I turned to leave. I was running late myself now. I stopped and looked around.

My books were in that young woman's car and she was just mad enough to throw them away.

"What's wrong Danny?" Mr. Coleman asked when I stood like I was in a daze.

"I left my books in her car, with my homework," I told him.

"You go on to school and tell the principal and your teachers what happened. If they need to check your story, tell them to call me."

There wasn't a lot that made Patch Coleman lose control of his thinking. I would learn that about him even more as I got to know him better. He was just as calm and collected as they come.

"Yes Sir, I reckon that's about all I can do right now."

I had a little trouble at first with the teachers believing me about my books and homework, but I had never failed to turn my homework in and they kinda believed me. Mr. Walton, the principal, did call Mr. Patch. I found out that afternoon when I stopped by his garage.

I had no idea what I was gonna do about my books, I knew Mom and Dad wouldn't be real happy with me if they had to buy me some more books. I was almost sick to my stomach worrying about all this and all I did was try to help somebody.

"Well, Danny, how did it go at school when you told them the story of how you lost your books and homework?" Mr. Patch asked, when I walked into his garage after school.

"They finally believed my story, I figured Mr. Walton called you is the reason."

"He did and I told him that he should give his students the benefit of the doubt, not all of them would lie about their homework," He smiled.

"I sure appreciate you letting me clean up around here and help you out some. I really thank you too for sticking up for me with Mr. Walton," I told him as I picked up the big broom and started sweeping.

He went back to working under the hood of an older model pickup. I swept the whole shop and picked up the sweepings with a big grain scoop and put them in the barrels out back.

I found the Oil Dry and sprinkled some fresh onto the heavy oil puddles around where he was working.

"Help me get this hood off this old truck Danny. I reckon I'm gonna have to pull this motor, it seems to be froze up from sitting out back so long."

"Yes Sir," I said and looked at where the hood was bolted to the hinges and got some wrenches to take it loose.

I got my side loose and he got his side done and we set the hood over on some empty oil drums in the corner of the garage.

"You're right handy to have around Danny, I think I made a good call, when I told the Mayor's daughter I had just hired you," He grinned, just as we heard a car's horn outside.

"You mean that was Mayor Deans' daughter that was cussing like that?" I said as I looked out to see who it was.

"Well, Mr. Patch, you better go out there and handle this. It's Mayor Dean that's drove up out there in the driveway," I stepped back into the garage. I didn't really want to be jumped on, even if Mr. Patch was here.

"Patch, I thought I may need to come by and make things right, after my girl made an ass of herself this morning. She called me from work, cussing and hollering," Mayor Dean said as he walked into the front door.

"Well Harold, she was a might upset, but my new hired help fixed her car for her and I think she was still upset cause she was gonna be late for work," Mr. Coleman talked with his smooth easy way of talking.

"I understand Patch, I sure do. That girl is high-strung like her Momma and they just about keep me busy going around behind them putting out fires. I'm sure glad that Missy took after me.

"Missy, bring this boys books in here for me girl," He looked back at the car and I saw someone getting out on the passenger side.

"Hi Danny, here are your books," Missy Dean said as she handed me my books and smiled a cute smile.

"Thanks, I sure hope your sister isn't still mad at me."

"She stays mad. She'll get over it and one day she'll be back to get her car worked on again. She drives it like it was a race car anyway," Missy smiled again at me.

I knew her, but didn't really know her. She was fourteen and I was sixteen, so we didn't even have classes in the same building at school. I was starting the ninth grade and she was starting the seventh. She sure did look good though. She had freckles across her little short nose and her eyes were big and brown.

She had a smile that seemed to just spread all over her face and she was beginning to get some titties too. They looked good to me, poking out against her tight shirt and I knew I had better stop looking at her so much, or her daddy would whack me.

"Danny, Mr. Dean asked you if he needed to pay you anything for helping his daughter, after she was rude to you.," Mr. Patch said.

"Oh, sorry Sir, uh no Sir, she paid me what Mr. Patch told her to already," I stammered, as I looked at Missy again, she was smiling again.

"Well, I need to get back to the office. Missy, you going with me or are you going home from here."

"I'll stay a while, Daddy and then go home I think. I'll see you when you get home," Missy said and hugged her Daddy.

I saw her short skirt rise up in back and I felt my face turn red as I looked.

I turned to see Mr. Patch grinning at me and I smiled at him and went to the back of the garage.

"Mr. Patch, may I talk to Danny for a minute? I won't keep him from work long," I heard Missy ask Mr. Patch and I whipped my head around to make sure I really heard that and didn't just think I did.

"Sure Missy, he needs to take a break anyway, he just cleaned this whole place up, did a good job of it too. Here's two dimes, get him and you a Coke and sit there under that tree out there and cool off," Mr. Patch said, as I looked at both of them like they were from Mars.

"Here Danny, I sure hope you don't mind that I asked Mr. Patch if we could talk a while," She said as she handed me the bottle of Coke she had bought from the old Coke machine in his shop.

"Uh no, Missy. I sure do appreciate you and your Dad bringing my books by. You could've just brought them to school and I'd have gotten them then," I said.

I looked at her freckles and she smiled. Her nose kinda rose up and made her eyes crinkle in the corners when she smiled. We were sitting kinda close and I could see her face good.

"Oh but I wanted to come when he told me he was gonna stop by here. Mom has been over to Martinsville today and she stopped by to see Helen. That's when Helen told her all about this morning. Then Mom brought your books back by Dad's office and I was there after school was out, so I rode with him," she explained all this to me.

"How old are you Danny?" She asked and smiled again. She sure did smile a lot, but I liked her smile.

"I was sixteen in July," I said as I looked into her eyes and then at her shoulder length hair, that kinda just hugged her neck and the sides of her face.

"I'll be fifteen next March, there's not much difference in our ages is there?" She asked and smiled again.

"No, not that much. I just started the ninth grade and you're in the seventh aren't you?"

"Yes, how did you know that?"

"I asked a girl I saw talking to you, one day."

"You did?" Her eyes really flew wide open now.

"Yeah, I thought you were older and maybe a new girl or something."

"You really thought I was older?" She asked and her nose did that little crinkly thing again, as it raised way up when she smiled big.

"Yeah, you don't look like the other girls that are fourteen and you act older too. You sure have changed a lot and you're growing up good,"I felt my face turn red and I looked away.

"Yeah I guess I am growing up more now that I am a teenager. So what did you think, when the girl told you who I was and how old I was?"

"I thought she was kidding at first, then she turned to another girl and they both said the same thing."

"I see you riding your bike to school sometimes. Do you ever ride over on Baker Street on the way to school?"

"I did ride that way once or twice, it was right after I saw you and asked that girl who you were. I never saw you outside and stopped going by your house. I didn't want somebody to see me and think I was about to steal something."

"I had a flat on my bike this morning and didn't ride it. I reckon I'd have been better off if I had ridden it."

"Why is that?"

"Well, I wouldn't have made your sister mad at me. I would have cut through by your house and gone to school that way."

"Yeah, but then we wouldn't be here talking and drinking a Coke either."

"Yeah I guess you're right."

"Are you going to get your flat fixed, today?"

"Yeah, I got an air pump and some patches I carry in a little tool bag on my bike, I'll fix it when I get home."

"Ride by my house and I'll ride to school with you. That is, if you don't have a girlfriend that will get mad."

"No I don't have one. I bet you got a boyfriend though."

"Nope, I don't. What time do you usually leave home, when you ride your bike?"

"About ten minutes to eight. It takes me five minutes to get to your house and another ten minutes to get to school."

"I'll be ready when you get there. Can we be friends now that we're going to ride to school together."

"I'd like that, I like you," I felt my face get red.

"Thanks, I like you too. I can't have boyfriends yet, but I can have friends."

"Then you and I'll be friends," I managed a smile.

"I better go before Mr. Patch tells me I can't come back. I'm glad we talked and I'm really glad we're going to be friends, Danny."

"Me too Missy and thanks."

"You can call me Melissa, if you like. My Dad just calls me Missy cause I'm his little girl."

"See you in the morning Melissa."

"See you Danny," She looked at me and smiled. I smiled right back.

"Bye Mr. Patch." She hollered as she walked back through the garage and out the door.

"She's a nice girl, Danny and pretty too."

"She sure is, her name's Melissa and she's in the seventh grade, she's fourteen," I said.

We watched her walk out to the sidewalk and turn back to wave, her skirt just swirled around her long legs and settled back as she turned. We both waved and went back to work.

"Danny, take the spark plugs out of this old engine and I'll shoot the cylinders full of penetrating oil and we'll let her set over night. I've seen the rings come unstuck by doing this and we can get this old piece of junk out of here."

"Yes Sir Mr. Patch."

"Danny just call me Patch, we're gonna be working here together and I'm just Patch to everyone."

"Yes, Sir. Whose old Studebaker truck is this anyway, Patch?" I asked.

"It's mine, it's been sitting out yonder in the shed for about fifteen years, I parked it out there when I bought a new one in 1950. The man wouldn't give me but $250.00 for it on a trade. Said a 1937 model wasn't worth anything, so I kept it. That old shed is about to fall in and I thought I'd get this old truck out, get it running and sell it."

"Really, how much do you want for it?"

"Oh, I don't know, it's according to how much it costs to get it running, I reckon. Why, do you know someone that may want this old thing?" I saw him look at me and smile.

"Shoot yeah I do. I mean, I'd love to have it. But I don't have the money. I'll have to ask Dad and see if he'll get it for me and let me pay him back with what I make here and I'll get me a couple more jobs and try to get it paid off," I was really interested now.

"Danny, you can't be working three jobs and going to school too, you won't have time for yourself."

"I'll think of something Patch, just don't sell it until I work something out."

"I've had it since 1937 and I'm not in any hurry to sell it. Even with you helping me, it's gonna take a while to get it all checked out. The tires are almost dry-rotted, it'll need new tires and probably rims too."

"Yeah, I see two of them are almost flat now."

"Yeah, I just aired them up yesterday. It'll definitely need tires."

"Tell you what I'll do Danny. You can have it for the $250.00 the man offered me on a trade in 1950. I got a set of 15" wheels and tires I can put on it and we'll sand it down and prime it here in the shop when we're not busy. You can paint it later. That old six cylinder motor still has a lot of miles left on it, if we can get it to run. They were tough as hell back then."

"Patch, I don't have $250.00, but I'll get the money somehow," I told him. I wanted that old truck.

"You tell your Mom and Dad what I offered it to you for, if they can't swing it right now, I'll let you have it and you can work out the price right here in this shop. I'll even help you fix it up a bit in our spare time. A boy needs a pickup to ride around in and the way that cute little Melissa Dean was smiling at you, you'll have a passenger real soon after we get'er running."

Patch reached out to shake my hand.

I'd never shook on a deal before in my life, and I knew this wasn't something to take lightly. I shook Patches' hand with a firm grip, and felt like I had just become a man. I was shaking inside too, I was so nervous about what I was doing; but it was time I started being grown up about things.

-------

"Mom, Dad, guess what; I got a job today, and I got a chance to buy me an old pickup truck, too." I yelled as I ran in the kitchen door, after running all the way home with my books bundled up in my belt.

"Whoa, slow down there a bit son, let's just get one thing at a time talked about. Now tell us about the job you got," Dad laughed.

"Well, I fixed a young woman's car for her right in front of Patch's Garage and he came out and hired me on the spot. I went to work there after school today."

"How much are you making at this new job, Danny?" Mom asked.

"I don't even know Mom, but it'll be more than I'm making now, not working," I grinned.

"You got a job and you don't know how much money you're making?" She asked.

"Now Bess, the boy was excited about the new job. I know Patch, he'll treat Danny right. Now tell us about the old pickup you found."

"Well, Patch has this old 1937 Studebaker pickup that he never traded, cause the man wouldn't give him but $250.00 on a trade, he's kept it in his shed all these years. He wants to get it running and sell it to me for the same $250.00 that he turned down in 1950 when he bought a new pickup. He said he'd put some rims, tubes and tires on it and we'd fix it up some when we're not busy in the shop."

"Well, sounds like he's took a liking to you. That old truck's not worth much, except to a collector or some hot-rodder like it is."

"Just how are you figuring on paying for it Danny?" Mom asked and now came the hard part.

"Well Mom, Patch told me that if you and Dad couldn't swing it right now, he'd let me work out the price of it there in his shop. I sure hope you and Dad will at least think about it. I really do need a pickup and we'd have a truck to haul things with Dad," I looked from Dad to Mom and back again.

They looked at one another, then Mom went back to cooking and Dad went back to reading the paper.

Neither of them said another word about the pickup and I was scared to death to say any more.

"I reckon I'm gonna go fix the flat on my bicycle before supper Mom. I'll be right outside the door, just holler when you get it done," I said and hung my head, totally disappointed and went to get my bicycle out off the porch.

It didn't take but a minute to turn the bike upside down on the handle bars and seat and roll the front tire off one side of the rim. I pulled the tube out and pumped it up with my tire pump and found the hole. I whittled a point on a match stick and stuck in the little hole and felt inside the tire for whatever made it go flat. I found a small tack and pulled it out.

I sanded the tube and cut me a cold patch off the roll about the size of a postage stamp and put some glue on the tube. I took the match and lit the glue and let it burn out then placed the patch over the hole. I held it real tight for a few minutes and then put the tube back in and the tire back on. I pumped it up until it felt as hard as my back tire was and put my tools in the little pouch behind my seat and my air pump in the bracket on the bike frame, then put my bike on the porch.

I was really dreading going back in the kitchen. I had always hated to ask my Mom and Dad for things. I know they worked hard and saved their money. I sure didn't want them to give up something just to get me a truck. I was gonna ask if they'd let me get the truck and work it out like Patch suggested.

I crossed my fingers on my right hand, took a deep breath and went back in, scared half to death.

"Danny you're right on time, supper's ready," Mom said and I washed my hands and sat down.

Dad said the blessing and we started heaping our plates full.

"I reckon we could use a pickup around here Danny. Tell Patch I'll be by to talk with him Saturday morning," Dad smiled, I looked at Mom, she was smiling too, with tears in her eyes. I had some in mine too, I was so happy.

"Thanks Mom. Thanks Dad, I'll take good care of it and Patch told me he'd help me work on it if something went wrong."

"We're proud of you Danny. I guess you'll be wanting to go out with a girl next," Dad said and smiled again, I saw Mom cut her eyes hard at him.

"Well, Bess, he's growing up now and he needs to get out and enjoy this time in his life."

"I know, but did you have to talk about all this in one night, it's happening too fast for me," Mom said and laughed.

-------

The next morning, I was out of bed, eating my toast and drinking my OJ when my alarm went off. I had forgotten to turn it off when I got up early.

I looked at the clock in the kitchen and took off for the shower, it was already 7:30. I took a fast shower and was so excited about meeting Melissa that I got a real big hard on. I decided not to beat my meat as much as I wanted to and got out with water dripping all over the place.

I was really messing up this morning. I got myself dried off and wiped the floor good and dry and hung my towel on the shower rod.

I ran to my room and pulled a clean t-shirt on and my fresh starched jeans with the neat creases Mom can make in them. I slipped my sneakers on without socks, I was ready.

I combed my hair, grabbed my books and ran out the door. I was five minutes early, but I didn't want to be late.

I looked at my Timex watch, I was still five minutes early when I turned the corner onto Baker Street. I saw Melissa sitting on the porch swing, just as she saw me and jumped off the porch, her skirt flying up and I wished I was earlier now as I saw a flash of her white panties and her long tan legs from three houses down.

"Hi Danny, I was waiting for you so we could have plenty of time to ride slow on the way to school."

"I was early but I had to make myself not ride fast and get here too early," I confessed.

"I would have been ready, I get up early and this morning I just got ready for school and sat on the porch," Melissa smiled and her nose made her face crinkle up again, I wished I had jacked off now so I wouldn't get a hard on in front of her.

"You're looking at me sorta funny, do I have something on my face?"

"A bunch of pretty freckles," I said, and felt my face turn red.

"Danny, my freckles aren't pretty, they make me look funny," She smiled and then she blushed real red.

"We better go so we won't have to hurry," I said.

All of a sudden I didn't know what to say.

"Guess what happened after you left yesterday"

"I don't know, what?" She looked at me as we rode side by side down her street and turned west on Summer.

"Patch told me I could buy his old Studebaker pickup for $250.00 and I could work it out in his shop," I said proudly.

"Wow Danny, that is great news. Does it run? I saw him working on it."

"No, but he said he's gonna get it running and he and I are gonna do other things it needs. We're even gonna sand it down and prime it, he said we would paint it later."

"Wow, I bet you can hardly wait to get that thing running. What did your Mom and Dad say when you told them?"

"Well, at first they didn't say a lot, just asked a few questions. Then I went out and fixed my flat and went back in. They both kinda smiled and then Dad told me he thought we really did need a pickup around to haul things with."

"Gosh, your parents must really be some neat folks."

"They are, we'll go over there some time when they're home and you can meet them," I said, and smiled at her.

"I'd like that. Do you think they'd like me as your friend?" She looked at me with a worried look now and I could have grabbed her.

But I didn't.

I just smiled, "They were kinda teasing me about wanting to go out with girls now that I'd have a truck. I know they'll really like you. Melissa you're so neat," I said and now it was my turn to smile and turn red.

"I am? You think I'm neat Danny?"

"I sure do. I really like you, I want to take you for a ride in my truck, when we get it running."

"Really, I'd love to be the first girl to ride in your truck."

"Well, it's not like I'm making a list or anything. I was kinda thinking that maybe you could get your Mom and Dad to let us go to a movie one Friday. The early movie that is," I was getting bold now and I didn't even know where my courage was coming from.

I guess it was the fact that Melissa was with me and she wanted to be my friend. Besides that, she was very pretty and I really did like her eyes and her smile and her freckles.

"Danny, you're gonna run up on the curb if you don't watch where you're going," She giggled and I had to stop and look at her.

"What's wrong Danny?" She asked when I stopped.

"Nothing, I was just looking at you."

"You make me feel funny, when you tell me things like that," She smiled.

"I feel funny when I say them and sometimes I don't even know where they come from. I hope you don't think I'm crazy or anything, I'm really not."

"No, I think you are just about the kindest and handsomest boy I know," She said, turning as red as a stop sign, as I looked at her wide eyed.

"We better hurry or we'll be late," I said, when neither of us knew what to say next.

We weren't late, we were actually still ten minutes early and when we parked her bike in the bike rack and locked it. We stood and talked about my pickup and us riding home this afternoon.

"I'll come over here and get you when I get out, if that's alright with you," I said, as I looked at my watch.

"YES, I mean I'll be waiting for you right here, Danny."

"Bye."

"Bye."

-------

I rode over to the junior high building and locked my bike in the rack.

I was on cloud nine the rest of the day, but I had my homework for yesterday and today and I had my books back.

-------

"Hey Danny, where're you going in such a hurry? You want to ride down to the river and see the boats?" Johnny Parker asked as I hurried to get over to the junior high building.

"Can't Johnny, I'm meeting a friend, then I got to hurry home, I've got a job at Patch's Garage now," I yelled as I was steady gaining speed.

Melissa was waiting with her feet on the ground, standing in front of her seat, straddling her 'girl bar, ' and smiling as I rode up.

"Danny, meet my friends Claire, Julie and Dotty," She said as I looked at the three girls standing beside her, grinning at me like Melissa was.

"Hi Claire, Julie and Dotty, nice to meet all of you," I smiled back.

"We've got to go, Danny has a job now and he's getting his own truck soon," Melissa told her friends.

"We know Melissa, you already told us a hundred times today, bye Danny," Dotty grinned at Melissa, and they stuck their tongues out at each other.

"They wanted to meet you and I wanted them to," Melissa told me and smiled. I had waited all day to see that smile she smiles when she looks at me.

"I'll let you meet a couple of my friends too, but they'll probably slobber all over their chins when they see you," I told her.

"Oh Danny they wont either," She giggled, I almost slipped off the pedal with my foot.

"I hate to hurry Melissa, but I really need to get over to Patch's Garage and go to work. After all I'm buying a pickup so we can go to the movies one night," I grinned at her.

"I know Danny, will you ask Patch if I can come by and see your pickup sometime."

"Sure, but Patch likes you and I know you'd be welcome to come over any time."

"Really? You don't think he'd mind if I stopped in on the way to see Dad at his office?"

"Heck no, Patch is a really neat man, you'll see," I said as we pedaled hard toward her house.

"I'll be here in the morning Melissa and we'll ride again if you want to."

"I want to Danny, I'll see you then and if I do go see Dad, I'll stop by Patch's Garage to see you and your truck."

"OK, I'll be looking for you."

I raced home now, to get me some old clothes to wear while I was in the shop and hurried the two blocks over to Patch's.

-------

"Hey there Danny, you made good time. I see you got your flat fixed," Patch said, when I rolled into his shop.

"I sure did, how did your day go here at the garage?" I asked.

"We had a good day so far, but it's slowed down now. Look over here at our old truck," He told me, as we walked over to look down at the little motor.

He reached down and grabbed a long flex-handle fastened to a big socket wrench and turned the engine with the crank pulley.

"Wow it did loosen up didn't it, have you tried to start it yet?"

"No I thought I'd wait for you to get here."

"I'll get these old clothes on and be right there. I said as I walked over to the corner of the shop to change my clothes.

"Here put these on and you can just come here from school and not have to go home first," He said and handed me a new pair of shop coveralls, just like his.

"Hey thanks Patch," I said, but then I thought of Melissa and not getting to ride home with her in the evenings.

"I talked to Mom and Dad about the truck and they're gonna let me get it, Patch. Dad said he'd come over Saturday morning and get with you on it," I told him.

"Great, I'm tickled that they're letting you get it Danny. You'll be the envy of all the boys and the girls too," He laughed.

"Well, there was something I wanted to ask you about. I told Melissa about the truck and she wants to stop by and see it on her way to her Dad's office today," I looked at him close to see how he took this. He smiled big and told me that she could come by anytime.

"We'll make her a 'shop gopher' and let her go for our tools, as we work on the old truck," He laughed.

"Thanks Patch, she sure is a nice girl and I really like her. She can't have boyfriends yet, but we're gonna just be friends for a while and wait," I tried to sound grownup and hoped I did.

"Sounds like the thing to do. You just keep that pretty little girl happy and she'll make you a great friend Danny, she's a keeper," Patch slapped me on the shoulder.

"Get them plugs in that little engine. I took a wire brush and cleaned them good today," Patch said, and we went to work.

He had put a used battery on the truck and hooked it up to the battery charger.

Patch had drained the gas tank and put five gallons of fresh gas in it. When I got the spark plugs back in and the wires on the right plugs, I backed up to look at it.

"We'd better open the doors behind it Danny, cause she's gonna smoke for a while, with all that penetrating oil I poured down her yesterday," Patch said and we opened the double wooden doors wide.

"Take that old air cleaner off the carburetor, I'll pour a little gas straight down her throat, to get it primed and we'll see if she'll run," Patch said.

"I'm ready when you are Patch," I said and he gave me the thumbs up.

I turned the ignition key on and pushed the shiny starter button and the engine whirled over, spit, and popped and smoke came from everywhere.

The engine caught the gas and she began to run loudly and smoke was filling the garage and the cab of the truck.

"Hold her down Danny, don't let her go dead," Patch yelled, as he hooked up a big shop fan in front of the truck to blow the smoke out.

I knew I had a grin on my face as wide as the windshield, but I couldn't stop grinning. I felt the truck move and shake some. I looked as Melissa jumped in the passenger side of the seat and saw me grinning. She was grinning too as she slid over and hugged me and kissed me on the cheek.

I was red faced and grinning as wide as my mouth would grin as I looked through the dirty windshield at Patch. He was grinning at both of us in the seat now.

"Let me prop that throttle open right there Danny, you can get out of that cab, it's still filled with smoke," He said.

I felt the gas pedal move as he placed something under the throttle linkage.

"Try that and see if she'll run," He said. I took my foot off the gas pedal and the engine kept running.

"What's the oil pressure show, Danny?"

"About half way between forty and fifty," I told him as we got out. I grabbed Melissa's hand, pulling her out on my side, she was as happy as I was.

I looked at her and she had on some old denim bib overalls and a t-shirt. She looked like a million dollars.

"I see you came ready to work, I told Danny that we'd make you earn your pay if you came over here," Patch told her above the roar of the little six cylinder flat-head motor.

Melissa walked over and stood right beside Patch, he put his arm around her shoulder. I saw them talking but I looked down into the engine well, then looked up and saw him pointing at me, she grinned real big, and looked at him and nodded.

The smoke was beginning to die down some now and the shop was clearing with the fan on.

"Take the screw driver out of the throttle linkage Danny and see if she'll idle now that she's warmed up," Patch yelled and I grabbed the long skinny screwdriver and pulled it out by the handle. The engine dropped its RPM's and I thought it was gonna go dead, but it just settled into a slow idle with practically no noise at all now.

"Shut it off and see if it'll start back," He said.

I reached in through the door and turned the switch off, then back on, when it had stopped.

I hit the starter button and it fired right back up to an idle.

Patch gave me another thumbs up and motioned for me to shut it down.

Chapter 2



"Danny, get the floor jack over there and jack the rear end up, we'll get those wheels changed," Patch told me.

"Melissa you get the air hose over there on that reel and pull it over here so I can use the impact wrench on them lug nuts. I knew they were gonna be rusted on tight, so I sprayed penetrating oil on them yesterday."

Melissa jumped like she'd been poked, when he called her name to help, but she grinned and ran across the shop to get the end of the air hose from the big hose reel. She walked backwards across the shop as she pulled it over to Patch.

"Danny you and Melissa go out there to that old shed, get those five wheels stacked up in there," He told us and we took off out the back door.

I opened the big wooden shed door and saw a lot of old junk piled up in there. There was a lot of cobwebs too, but I took my hand and waved it to tear them down as I got to the stack of wide tires I saw there.

When I reached up and pulled the first one down, I looked at the side of it.

'GOODYEAR', it said in big white letters. The rims were white spokes and I just grinned at Melissa as I grabbed the next wheel and brought it down from the stack.

We each rolled a wheel to the back of the shop and went back for two more. I ran back to get the last one, while Melissa helped Patch get the first old tire and rim out of the way.

Patch was sitting down on the floor cross legged in front of the wheel and when he pulled the old one off, he rolled it out of the way and she rolled one of the wide tires over to him, so he could easily put the new rims on.

I was amazed at the way she just jumped in and helped us, I was so happy that she's there too.

When we had the rear wheels changed, I let the truck down and jacked the front end up.

"Danny see if you can get that old spare tire out of the fender well and we'll see about making this wider tire fit down in there," Patch said.

I walked around to look at the spare tire where it was mounted on the right front fender. It was in a deep well and mounted so it stuck up next to the hood of the truck. I got a couple of wrenches and took the mounting bracket loose then lifted the spare out of its resting place.

"Melissa get that air gauge and the air chuck over there in that coffee can by the hose reel, we'll check the air in all the tires," Patch said, and grinned at me.

She came back with them and Patch really smiled that she knew what he was talking about.

"Danny show her how to check the air pressure with the gauge and ya'll put thirty two pounds in each tire, the spare too," Patch told us.

I showed Melissa how to put the gauge on the valve stem and check the pressure. Then we hunkered down side by side as she checked the pressure and I put air in as needed on all the tires.

Her knee was rubbing against mine, as we squatted by each tire and she would just smile at me and I would smile at her. We never said a word, we didn't have to.

Patch lifted the spare up and into the fender well, it just barely slipped down into the well, where the older, skinnier tire had been. Patch looked at me and we both grinned. I fastened the mounting bracket back and we all backed up to look at the old Studebaker, then at each other.

"Danny you and Melissa take her around the block a time or two and check her out. We'll leave the hood off until we know for sure she's gonna run okay."

We were grinning like two possums as we looked at Patch.

I opened the door for Melissa to get in, she looked at me kinda funny, but she smiled and got in.

I got in the driver's side and fired the little engine up again. I put it in reverse and eased the clutch out.

I had never driven a stick shift on the floor before, but Patch had told me to look on the knob and shift the gears in the same pattern it showed there when I pushed the clutch down each time.

I was nervous, but he seemed to have confidence in me, so off we went. I didn't stall it once or jerk it much.

I had a dollar and a half in my pocket, so I stopped by the gas station and put a dollar's worth of regular in the tank and bought us both a Coke.

When we got back to the truck, I held Melissa's hand and walked her around to my side of the truck. I opened the door and she slid in under the wheel, then scooted over just enough to let me in.

I looked at her beautiful face as she sat just inches from me, she had a big smudge of dirt right over her freckles on her nose. I reached up and wiped it off with the red grease rag I had hanging out of my pocket and she smiled at me then did that little thing where she crinkles her nose.

Without even a second thought, I leaned over and kissed her on the mouth.

Melissa snuggled close to me, as we drove out onto the street and made the tour of Riverton, then back to Patch's Garage.

"Well, how did she do Danny?" Patch asked as we got out.

"Runs like a clock Patch. I just drove through town and got a dollar's worth of gas and us a Coke, but she was just purring. It still smokes a bit though."

"It'll do that for a day or two more'n likely, until you get all the oil burned out of the cylinders. We'll keep an eye on it and make sure it don't burn too much oil."

"I'll check it every day Patch," I told him.

"Melissa what do you think of this old truck?" Patch asked her.

"Patch, I think it is the best truck in Riverton. I just loved riding in it with the windows down and seeing the people looking at us as we rode by," She smiled.

"Let's put the hood back on it, we'll get it washed up real good tomorrow. Then we can see how much trouble it's gonna be to sand down and prime."

"I've got a couple of old blankets in my room that I can bring to cover the seats with, since they're kinda dry and cracked." Melissa said.

"That'll be fine for now, Melissa. We'll wash the cab out good when we wash it down tomorrow. Danny why don't you put yours and Melissa's bikes in the back and drive it home tonight. That way your Mom and Dad can see what you're getting them into," Patch smiled.

We put the hood back on the hinges and lined it up with the latch and tightened it down good.

I walked over to Patch with the intention of shaking his hand again, but when our eyes met I reached up and hugged him and we both smiled when I backed up.

Melissa jumped up in front of him and hugged him around his neck and smiled at him, as she ducked her head and blushed.

"That was for letting me help Patch and not treating me like I was just another girl that didn't know anything about a shop," She said as she smiled at him again.

"Melissa you're welcome in this shop any time. Danny and I will have you working on cars and trucks and making repairs, if you hang around with us."

"I really like being here with y'all too. I like helping Danny work on his truck," She said as she sidled up to Patch and hugged him with one arm around his waist. Then she did the same with me and didn't move away.

I smiled at Patch, he smiled at both of us.

"Give this pretty girl a ride home Danny. I'll see you both back here tomorrow after school," He told us and went over to his work bench.

I know I saw his eyes water up, but then mine were filling up too. I reckon this smoke was getting to us.

Melissa walked around to get in on my side and sat as close as she could to me as we rode slowly toward her house.

"Come in and meet my Mom Danny. I want her to see that you are a good looking, level headed boy. That's what she told me to look for in a boy and I've found the one I want," Melissa said as she looked at me when I stopped at a stop sign.

"I hope she likes me Melissa. I wish she'd let you have a boyfriend. I'd sure like to be him."

"She will, I just know she's gonna like you Danny. Mom and I like the same things," She smiled at me as we pulled into her driveway.

"Mom, I want you to meet someone, he's a friend of mine," Melissa said as we walked into the kitchen through the back door.

"Melissa what in the world have you been doing, you've got dirt all over your face and hands," Mrs. Dean said as she saw us.

"Mom this is Danny Millen, he's the one that Helen cussed out the day he fixed her car. He's got his own truck now, I've been helping him and Patch work on it," Melissa said. Her face did have a few smudges that I missed.

"Danny you seem to have made two entirely different impressions on my daughters. You two go wash your hands and faces and sit down and have some milk and cookies," She said as she looked me over. I still had on my shop coveralls on, I guess I did look kinda scruffy to her.

Melissa led me right into the bathroom with her and we washed our hands together in the sink side by side, both of us grinning. I washed her face with a washcloth, then she took it, and washed mine. She gave me a quick kiss on the cheek and we both smiled.

"So Danny, are you a mechanic or just working part time?" Mrs. Dean asked me and smiled. Her smile was just like Melissa's and she even had some freckles on her nose.

"I just work there for Patch part time. He had the old Studebaker truck and he's letting me buy it and pay for it by working in his shop," I said proudly.

"How old are you Danny?" She looked at me with a serious look now.

"I was sixteen in July," I answered, I felt like maybe this was where she was gonna tell me to leave her daughter alone.

"Melissa is only fourteen, even though she is very tall and pretty, as well as mature for her age, she isn't allowed to date," She said and I glanced at Melissa. Her head was down and I knew this was it now.

"Yes Ma'am, I understand, I know I'm a year and a half older than her, but we became friends and we like each other. If you'll just let me be Melissa's friend, I promise you that I'll never hurt her and we'll never do anything that you wouldn't approve of," I almost I choked as all of this came out.

I took a drink of my milk to wet my dry throat and looked at her. She was just looking at me with a funny look, then she smiled.

"Danny I like you. You can be Melissa's friend. You treat my daughter real good and with the respect you give your Mother and we'll see how you two get along," Mrs. Dean shocked me and I know she did Melissa, cause she jumped up and hugged her Mom.

"Thanks Mom, Danny is a gentleman, even Patch told me that he was a good boy and that he approved of him as a boyfriend candidate for me," Melissa looked from her Mom to me.

"He did?" I asked.

"Yes, when he and I were watching you take the screwdriver out of the throttle linkage, he pointed at you and told me that, I agreed too," Melissa smiled at me.

"Danny what does your Mom and Dad do?"

"They both work over at the factory in Martinsville. Dad's a foreman, Mom's a secretary there. They've both worked there since they got out of high school and got married," I told her. I was proud of my Mom and Dad.

"Very good. Do they go to church?" She asked.

"Yes Ma'am, but not every Sunday. We like to all go out to the river and have a picnic on some Sunday's, cause we never see a lot of each other during the week," I told her.

"Harold and I used to do that when the girls were younger, we just quit somewhere along the way," She said.

"Look at me Melissa," Mrs. Dean said.

"Yes Ma'am," Melissa looked at her Mom. I did too, I thought we were making good progress until now. I really felt bad, maybe it was because we didn't go to church every Sunday.

"Melissa, I really like Danny Millen a lot," She said and grinned.

"Danny, you can be Melissa's first boyfriend, but you better never let me hear that you've taken advantage of her being younger than you," She smiled at me.

"Mom, Danny would never take advantage of me," Melissa said and blushed.

"Then you better never let me hear that you took advantage of this nice young man either," She said and we all laughed even though I could feel my face turn red.

"See Danny, I told you that my Mom was cool and that we liked the same things," Melissa smiled at me and hugged her Mom again.

"Let me lay down some rules for you two to think about. First of all, no dates on school nights. After school Cokes and burgers are fine, home before dark though. Home by 11:00 on Friday nights and 11:30 on Saturday nights.

"No dates two nights in a row, unless I know why and where you're going. No hands under the clothes by either of you. Now can you both live by those rules? These are the same rules that were given to me by my Mom and I think they're fair.

"We'll talk about changes in the rules when Melissa is fifteen. That is, if you two are still seeing each other," Mrs. Dean finished and looked at both of us.

"Thanks Mom, you're the best Mom ever, may I tell my friends that Danny is now my boyfriend and has been given the stamp of approval by my Mom."

"Yes you may, just follow the rules, let me know if we need to make an exception for a special event."

"Thanks Mrs. Dean, I'll make sure Melissa behaves," I grinned.

"I'm depending on you Danny, I know Melissa, she usually wiggles around and gets what she wants."

"Mom, I hope I can still help Danny and Patch work on Danny's truck over at the garage," Melissa said and looked at me.

"I think that's a great idea, at least I'll know where you are and that you're too dirty and greasy to do anything else."

"MOM that's not funny," Melissa said as she giggled.

"Do you have a driver's license to drive that old truck, Danny?"

"Yes Ma'am, I do."

"Then you and Melissa run to the store for me. I need some things for supper, here's a twenty. Melissa, you can keep the change so you'll have some money now that you're acting a little more grownup," Melissa's Mom paused then cemented our status.

"Why don't you stop by and ask your Mom if you can stay for supper with us, that is, if you want to," Mrs. Dean said and smiled.

"Yes Ma'am, I'd love to." I told her. I could have hugged her myself at that moment.

But I didn't.

-------

"Mom, Dad I want you to meet my friend Melissa Dean, she's been helping Patch and me work on my old truck," I said as I led Melissa into the kitchen. We both still had on our dirty work clothes.

"Hello Melissa its nice to meet you," Dad said and smiled at the way we were dressed.

"Hello Melissa, I'm afraid our son may be asking too much of you, having you working in an auto repair shop," Mom said as she scowled at me.

"No Mrs. Millen, I really like working with Danny and Patch and they treat me just like one of the guys and never make fun of me," Melissa smiled that little smile that I love. I think Mom and Dad fell in love with her too, right then.

"Mom, Mrs. Dean asked me to stay for supper after we go to the store for her, will it be alright if I do?"

"Well I'm sure she knows by the way you're growing, that you eat more than a normal person. I see no reason why you can't. You need to get your homework done when you get home though."

"I've got my books in the truck. I thought if you let me eat supper with them I could get my homework over there and that way I'd have more time to visit," I smiled.

"Be home by 9:30 Danny. Melissa, I hope you know that we've tried real hard to teach this boy right from wrong. If he messes up real bad over there, just remember that I warned you," Dad laughed.

"Mr. Millen, Danny is the perfect gentleman and he even opens the door for me and asks me what I think about everything we talk about," Melissa gave Dad one of her smiles, he grinned and waved us out the door.

"Danny don't you think you should change into your school clothes."

"We've got them in the truck Mrs. Millen, he can change in my room." Melissa said, then her face turned blood red.

"I didn't mean with me in there," She blurted out and smiled.

I did hug her then and Mom did too before we left.

"I like your parents Danny, your Dad is a lot like mine. He likes to joke and sometimes you really have to watch what he says cause he'll say one thing and mean another just to trip you up," Melissa said as she sat beside me on the way to the store.

"Danny ask My Dad if we can go to the movie on Saturday night. I want to go on a date with you."

"I was trying to get up the courage to ask you Melissa. I mean, we just now got permission from your Mom to be girlfriend/boyfriend. I'll ask him when we're eating supper."

"Good I want to hold your hand and I want to kiss you too," She looked at me and smiled.

"I've never kissed a girl before Melissa," I told her.

"Well I haven't either, we can learn together. Helen told me one time that there was no wrong way to kiss, that the boy and girl have to figure what they like the best about it, then keep practicing until they get good at it."

"I hope we get good at it Melissa, I think I'm gonna like kissing you."

"Me too Danny, when we get to the store, can we kiss the first time?"

"What if someone sees us?"

"I hope its one of my friends if they do or at least someone that will tell one of my friends," She giggled and took my hand and pressed it to her thigh.

I was afraid I was gonna get a hard on.

The only parking space at the supermarket was right in front of the store, except for the ones way out next to the street. I pulled the old Studebaker into the parking place and took the keys out.

Melissa jumped up and switched around so fast I didn't know what she was doing. She was on her knees in the seat and she was right next to me.

I looked into her eyes and turned just a little to face her as she leaned over to kiss me. I was shaking so hard my keys were rattling in my hand, as our lips met.

"Don't make your lips hard Danny, relax and let them just kinda open a little but not too much," She told me as she put her arms around my neck and pulled my face close to her.

I felt her hard titties pressing into my chest and almost got a hard on.

"Wow Danny that was good. I want us to do a lot of that. Did you like it?" She smiled as she leaned back on her knees, looking at me with her big brown eyes.

"I think we better go in and get that stuff for your Mom while I can still walk, my legs are feeling funny," I told her and we smiled at each other.

"Danny?" She stopped as we walked down the aisle looking for the spice section.

"Yeah Melissa?"

"I've been thinking about what Mom told us about the rules."

"Well we agreed to them, so we have to abide by them," I said and thought that was a good stand to take.

"Yeah but the way she said that one."

"Which one?"

"No hands under our clothes by either of us."

"Well I wasn't planning on groping you any time soon anyway," I told her, as we now looked for some ground cumin.

"Well, I was planning on knowing more about you and as long as I have your permission to touch you 'outside' your clothes, I won't be violating the rules, will I?" She said with a smug little smile.

"Technically no, but I'm not sure that your Mom would let you do that, if you asked her to clarify what she meant."

"But she said, and I quote, 'no hands under the clothes by either of you'."

"I know Melissa, but I don't want you to get in trouble, because she also told me she was depending on me to keep the rules."

We had picked up the four items, that Mrs. Dean wanted us to get, and were standing in line at the checkout.

"You take the money and pay Danny. I want them to think we live together," Melissa smiled at me, with that smile that melts me. I could have hugged her right then.

So I did.

"What was that for, Danny?"

"Just because I can and I felt like it."

"I like that answer, I'm gonna remember that one," Melissa smiled.

The checker took the money, after she had rung up our purchases and looked at Melissa and me with her right eyebrow cocked up.

"We're living together," Melissa whispered to her, with a straight face.

"You're a lucky girl," The cashier said as she handed me the change and smiled at me.

"I know," Melissa smiled back and swiped her hair back with one finger and swished her sexy butt out the door in front of me.

I opened my door for her and she stood on the running board before she slid in. She kissed me for a long time. Melissa pushed her way into my mouth with her tongue, she pressed her hard titties against me as she pulled me close.

"I liked that, I think we're getting close, don't you?" I said as she slid over and let me in under the steering wheel, then scooted back close to me.

"Yes, I think we should have it perfected by the time we graduate high school," She smiled.

Each time I shifted the gears on the Studebaker, I let my right hand rest on her knee, until I had to shift again.

"Danny will you teach me to drive the floor shift one day?"

"I sure will, we'll go out by the river road and you can drive, it's not hard. Patch showed me and I caught on quick."

"It may take me longer to learn than you, cause I'll be putting my hand on your leg only it wont be on your knee," She giggled.

"Just remember, I can touch you anywhere, as long as I keep my hands on top of your clothes," I laughed.

"I'm counting on it Danny, I want to learn all about you and I want to learn all about our bodies."

"Melissa we need to be careful, remember I'm a sixteen year old boy and I have those feelings too," I tried to reason with her.

"I'm counting on you and those feelings Danny. We both need to find out what all the fuss is about. I'm not talking about getting naked. I'm talking about touching and looking and feeling each other and experiencing what it's like. I can hardly wait until I have a skirt on and you shift the gears," She said in a rush of words.

"I've thought about us doing all these things too Melissa, but I want you to like me for a long, long time and I want to be your friend forever. I don't want to lose you because I let us do something that we weren't old enough to handle when we did it."

"Then you think that one day we can look at each other and feel each other on top of our clothes and it will be alright?"

"You mean look at each other down there'?" I asked as we drove into her driveway.

"Yes, I want to see you Danny. If you unzip your pants and take it out, I can look at you and I won't be under your clothes," She smiled at her interpretation of the rules.

"Melissa I get hard when we talk about these things and I can't go into your house with a hard on," I scolded her and she just giggled.

"Show me."

I pulled my baggy shop overalls tight across my groin and she looked at me down there then looked up at me with her eyes wide open.

"I gotta see that now, wow I never knew they were that big. That is awesome, Danny. Can I touch it on top of your clothes now?" She looked up as she leaned down close to see my dick poking up in my coveralls.

"If you touch me right now, it'll never go down so I can eat at your table tonight and I'll probably make a mess in my pants," I told her as I looked down into her big grown eyes as she looked up at me and smiled her sexy little smile that gets me every time.

"Later then?" She asked, and patted my dick on the head.

"Later I want you to touch me, one day when we feel the time is right, I want to touch you too, but we're not ready to do anything with our bodies yet, other than look."

"Well you might not be," She batted her eyes and smiled.

"Bring your clothes, you can change in my room, while I change in Mom's," She told me.

-------

"Hi Dad, look who's here," Melissa said as she ran to her Dad and hugged him.

"Your Mom told me all about it. Hi Danny, welcome to the Dean Family Circus. I see the number two clown has gotten you wrapped around her finger, just like she does the Ringmaster," Mr. Dean grinned and shook my hand.

"Yes Sir and I like it too," I grinned back and went along with his joke.

"I do too, but don't tell the clown I said that," He said in a mock whisper.

"Mom I'm gonna change in your room, Danny's gonna change in mine."

"OK dear, Danny thanks for picking this stuff up for me you're gonna be good to have around," She smiled and I smiled back.

I took my clothes with me as Melissa led me down the hall, then up the stairs to her room.

"I hope you don't mind that I got a lot of dolls and things from my younger days. Just go in and change and I'll meet you here in the hall," She said as she giggled and ran down the hall and into another room.

I looked around at all the dolls she had in her room and wondered how long it took to collect them all.

I unzipped my coveralls and kicked my shoes off. I shrugged my shoulders sideways as I got the coveralls off and down to my waist then kicked my legs free and stepped out of them.

I was lost in my thoughts about Melissa, her family, and my old Studebaker, when I felt something on my butt.

I whirled around and there was Melissa standing there, in her white panties and bra.

"Melissa you're gonna get me shot, get out of here," I said but gave it away when I laughed

"I gotta see you Danny," She said, kneeling down before me as she pulled my white boxers down. She stared at my now raging hard on, her face on the same level as my erection.

"Wow, I just knew I was gonna love this thing, when I felt it in your coveralls while ago," She said just before she put her mouth on my cock, trying to swallow me whole.

I was shocked, but then I really wasn't, this was Melissa.

I loved it, I hoped she did too, cause I wanted all that she was willing to give me.

"Do it Danny," She leaned back, looking up at me, smiling my smile.

"I'm about to Melissa," I said as she sucked me. I pumped into Melissa's mouth, until her nose was tight against my groin and my cock was in her throat.

I felt like I was gonna cum really hard.

So I did.

I shot into her mouth, as the most incredible orgasm I had ever had in my life shook me all over. My knees almost buckled as I looked down at her, while I spurted into her mouth, as she swallowed it all.

"Let's go brush our teeth, you can use my toothbrush first," She giggled, leading me by my dick to her bathroom with my boxers down to my knees, as I walked wide legged.

She fixed her toothbrush with toothpaste and handed it to me.

"Hurry Danny, they'll think we're up here doing something," She giggled again as I brushed my teeth. We used the same brand of toothpaste too.

I washed out her toothbrush and handed it to her. She got her toothpaste on her brush, for the second time and started brushing with a smile on her face.

"Pull my panties down Danny and touch me please, you won't be under my clothes then," She said as she started brushing again.

I pulled her panties down and cupped her small pussy from behind, as I rubbed my groin against her naked butt. I got hard again and she reached down and pulled my dick up between her thighs, clamping me tight as she rocked back and forth while I still cupped her pussy.

My dick was poking out then sliding back as she rocked. Then she froze, bending over, pushing the head of my dick up against her wet pussy, as she moaned and bent at her knees. She got her orgasm.

"Lick my pussy. No don't, you'll have to brush again. Get a wash cloth from over there and wash my pussy then pull my panties up. You can kiss it when we come up and do our homework," She giggled again as I washed her pussy.

"Get dressed Danny, you sure are slow," she said as she pulled her gym shorts up and put a t-shirt on.

"Melissa I could spend my life with you," I said, as I dressed in my school clothes and pulled my shoes on.

"I hope so," She smiled, took my hand, and led me downstairs.

-------

"Danny, Clara just told me Patch made you a deal on that old Studebaker truck of his," Mr. Dean said as we came back down to the living room where he was reading the paper.

"Yes Sir, we got it running today and it sure runs good. He's gonna help me sand and prime it, we'll paint it later he said."

"That's great. Every boy needs a truck, these days. I heard also that you have a pretty good ace mechanic helping you down there nowadays," He smiled real big at Melissa, as she sat on the arm of the chair I was sitting in.

"Yes Sir, she's a good one and really a lot of help too," I smiled and Melissa turned to grin at me when I bragged on her.

"Well just look after my little girl, don't let her get hurt," He said.

I think he meant more than at the garage too.

"I'll look after her real good Sir and make sure nothing bad happens to her," I told him.

"I know you will Danny and Clara does too or you wouldn't be here. We both approve of you and Melissa.

"You're both young and have a lot to learn but just go slow and you'll have a lifetime of fun," He told me but he was looking at Melissa.

"Dad, Danny and I have already talked about all that. We want to know all there is about love and loving each other, but we want to take it slow and be sure we don't mess up as we go," Melissa said as she patted my almost hard dick with her hand that was in my chair where her Dad couldn't see.

"Supper's ready, Melissa step to Helen's door and tell her to come down to eat."

"Yes Ma'am," She said and ran to get her sister.

"Mom, Dad. What's he doing here?" Helen Dean asked as she looked at me in shock.

"Helen sit down and let's all enjoy our supper. I think you already know Melissa's new boyfriend, Danny Millen. Danny this is our older daughter Helen. I know you two have met before, but never been introduced," Mr. Dean said as Helen sat down and looked at her lap.

"Hi Helen, pleased to meet you," I said, and she looked up as I smiled at her.

"Hi Danny, I'm sorry about the other day, I really mean that. I felt bad all day about that after I drove my car to Martinsville and it ran better than it has in a long time.

"Missy, you have a very nice boyfriend and a handsome one too. I'm glad we've got a good mechanic in the family now," She smiled and I know I turned red cause I felt the heat.

"Thank you Helen, I knew you'd like Danny if you ever saw him for who he is," Melissa told her sister.

"Missy it wasn't that I didn't like him, I was running late my car wouldn't run and I took it all out on Danny, even after he fixed it. I don't know how much it costs to fix cars or I would have never offended you with a dollar Danny, please forgive me," She said.

"No offense Helen, if you get time, bring your car back in and I'll put new plug wires on it and new points and plugs too it just needs a good tune-up."

"I will Danny and thanks. I really do like your boyfriend Missy. Do you have an older brother, Danny?" Helen laughed and we all laughed with her.

"Thank you from me and your Dad, Helen. That was well done, I'm proud of you.

"Now let's say Grace, and eat." Mrs. Dean said.

"Harold..."

"Lord, we thank you for this food You have blessed us with, we thank You for our family, and our friends, we thank You, also, for this young man You have brought into our lives, as a friend to us all. Forgive us of our sins, in Jesus' name we pray, Amen."

"Amen," I said and it echoed around the table.

-------

"Mom, Danny has to be home by 9:30, so we're going up to do our homework, we'll leave the door open."

"Hon, we trust you. I know you'll want to listen to your music, you two just hurry and get your homework done."

"Mrs. Dean, I really enjoyed my supper. Mr. Dean, it was good seeing you again. Helen, thanks for liking me after we got off to a bad start."

"Danny, you just come and eat with us anytime," Mrs. Dean said.

"Tell Patch I'll see him in a day or two Danny, good luck with your truck," Mr. Dean said.

"Danny, if you ever get tired of my little sister, I want a date," Helen said, smiling.

"Hurry Danny, we have to get our homework finished," Melissa said, as she closed her door.

"Well, I thought that was what we were here to do."

"We are, then you're gonna kiss my pussy."

"Oh."

We both had a fairly light load of homework and within thirty minutes we were through.

"How do you want me Danny?"

"Melissa, are you sure about this, we'll be going against your Mom's rules."

"Danny, she said no touching under our clothes. I'm gonna pull my clothes off, and get naked. I want you to see me," she slowly undressed for me.

"I've never seen a naked girl, much less touched one Melissa. I don't know what to do to you."

"I had never sucked a dick before either, but my three friends and I have talked about it. We've listened to the older girls, we knew that if we ever got a chance, we were gonna suck a dick, then tell the others."

"You mean you're gonna tell them that you sucked me and swallowed my cum?"

"Yes, they'll be so jealous too," She smiled, standing there with her little hard titties sticking out, pointing at my face and her nearly hairless pussy barely visible under her little mound.

"Can you just lie down and let me look at you for a while Melissa? Until I figure out what I'm supposed to do?"

"Danny I want you to lick my pussy and kiss it like I kissed your dick."

"Will you tell me what to do? I'm scared I'll hurt you."

"I'll help you, just have yourself a good look, then we'll start out slow."

"I like the way your butt's made Melissa."

"You don't think it's too big for my body?"

"Heck no, I love it and a while ago, when you backed up to me, I could have shot again and again just from the feel of your butt against my belly like that."

"It felt good to me too, I almost let your dick slip into me, but I want to wait and make it special for us."

"I want it to be special too, when we make love the first time Melissa. I know I want you, I know we're gonna have lots of fun, but I want that part to be really special for us."

"Me too, now just take a good look, don't put your finger in me, or I'll want more. I'm already so excited I'm wet."

"You're wet?"

"Yes, a girl gets wet when she gets excited, just like you get hard."

"Wow, I see what you mean now. You sure are pink inside too and really wet. I may need to get a towel, you're dripping so much."

"Get one from the bathroom, hurry."

"Put it under my butt, so if I leak a lot, it won't get on my bedspread. Pull my pussy open again Danny, show me what it feels like to be licked. I heard a senior girl talking about getting licked once, I almost got a cum from just hearing her."

"I like looking at you Melissa. I want to do this one day, when we have longer and I can take my time."

"We will Danny, please lick me. I want you so bad."

"Do I start down here at the bottom or up at the top Melissa?"

"Anywhere, just lick my pussy. OH GOD that feels so good. I just knew it would. I just knew that you'd be a good pussy mechanic too Danny, you make my pussy feel so good. Lick me up at the top now and you'll find my clitty."

"Up here?"

"OH, MY, GOD, YES. Lick me right there Danny, you hit it again."

"OH SHIT DANNY, can you kinda kiss me and suck me? We heard that it feels so good when a boy does that, OH YES. You've got it now. Stop Danny, stop for a minute, I just had three cums in a row."

"I love the way you taste Melissa. I want to do this a lot."

"I do too Danny, now do me up at the top again. YES right there, can you reach my nipples Danny, they're on fire."

"OH YES, I want you to suck my nipples Danny, do it now. SHIT, I'm cumming so hard I hurt in my pussy Danny. Suck my other nipple Danny and then suck my pussy again, I'm about to explode now."

"Let me rest a minute Danny and you just look around down there."

"Can I look at your butt too?"

"You like my butt, don't you? I am glad you do. I kinda think I have a nice one myself. Lift me up and look good while I rest, then I want one more good cum before you wash me again. I really liked it when you washed my pussy. Will you do that for me whenever we can get naked like this?"

"I sure will, Melissa can I touch your pussy with the head of my dick?"

"OH GOD YES, just don't put it in me."

"I won't, it felt so good when we were doing that in the bathroom earlier. I want to rub you, until I shoot again."

"Do it now Danny, just let it rub against my pussy, while we're both wet. YES I LOVE that. Does it feel good to you too?"

"Yes, it feels like I'm about to cum, even when I first touch you, it tickles my dick all the way back to my balls. I like this, I bet it feels that good when we go all the way too."

"I hope so, but we're gonna wait until it's just right before we make love Danny, right?"

"Yes."

"OOOOhhhh do that real fast. I think I can cum when you do that, raise my legs up high and hold them together, just let your dick slide between my wet thighs. I can raise my pussy now and it gets a good rubbing too."

"OH DANNY, can you shoot now, shoot on my belly Danny I want to see it come out. Shoot right across my pussy, let it land on my belly.

"Oh Danny I'm cumming, I can see your dick shooting. One day we'll have it in my belly Danny, shoot all over me."

"MELISSA I'm cumming again and it's so good."

"Danny let it all go, I want all you have all over me. Watch this Danny," Melissa said, scooping up my cum with her fingers, licking it off her fingers, then got another big glob and swallowing it too.

"I'm gonna get that washcloth now and wash you good."

"YES that turned me on, it made me feel so sexy and so good all over."

"Hold still while I wash you, I'm gonna have to rinse this out and wash you again."

"Melissa I love your pussy, it's so slick and puffy now. I'm gotta suck you again, hold still."

"Oh Danny it feels so good, make me cum again, I feel it now. Danny you've got to stop," Melissa giggled.

"Hold still, now cum with me and I'll wash you good."

"I like it when you wash me, I want to wash you too when you get through."

"You're getting hard again Danny, can I suck you one more time?"

"YES, I love it when you suck me."

"Will you let me suck you in your pickup sometime?"

"Heck yes you can. Will you wear a skirt and let me suck your pussy sometime. You can raise your skirt and pull your panties over so I won't be under your clothes."

"YES OH Danny I love sucking you, I want to do this a lot."

"I want to do you a lot too, I wonder if we can do each other at the same time?" I asked.

"Wow, we have to try that. That sounds HOT, doesn't it? Hold still and stop asking me questions, I want to suck you."

"Yes Ma'am Get all you want."

"UMMMPH"

"HUH?"

"CUM in my mouth."

"Here it comes Melissa, you make me feel good. UNGGHHH."

-------

"Mom, we got our homework done, I'm going to sit on the porch with Danny, for a few minutes before he leaves."

"OK Hon, night Danny."

"Night."

"Put your arm around me, like we're at the movies Danny. I want to see how we're gonna do this. I don't have a bra on."

"Are you gonna pull your bra off before we go in the movies?"

"Yes, I want you to feel my naked titties when we're in there."

"I saw a boy and girl do that one night. They were kicking the seat I was sitting in and I turned around to see her with her shirt open and his hands on her naked titties. I got up and moved."

"Did you really?"

"Yeah, I was only ten at the time."

"Oh, well I hope no one sees us, cause I'd probably get a cum."

"Really?"

"Yes, Wow Danny I love the way you hold my titty and make my nipple get excited."

"I like your titties and I love your little nipples. I could have sucked them all night, if we weren't in a hurry."

"Lean over here and suck them one more time. I'll pull my shirt up, then you need to go, it's 9:15."

"I know I hate to go. Hold still you're wiggling."

"Well it tickles now," She giggled.

"Let me get my mouth on your titty and it won't tickle."

"OHHH Danny, I love this. We can do this in the pickup too. I'm gonna bring my blankets tomorrow, are you gonna come by and get me in the morning?"

"You better believe it. Bring the blankets, we'll put them over the seats."

"Suck harder Danny. That feels so good. You need to go."

"I know, night sweet Melissa."

"Night, sweet Danny."

Chapter 3



"Hi Mom, hi Dad I'm home." Mom and Dad were sitting in the living room, both were dressed for bed.

"Hi Danny, how was the supper at the Deans?" Mom asked.

"It was good, I talked to Mayor Dean some, he's a really neat man. I just never knew him before. I met Helen, Melissa's older sister that cusses so much, she apologized for talking to me so bad the other day. She even told me that if I ever get rid of her sister, call her," I laughed, they did too at that.

"Well get your shower, you did take time to get your homework, didn't you?"

"Yes Ma'am, Melissa and I did our homework in her room. You know, I really like her, she's so much fun to be around and we laugh and have fun just being together."

"We're glad you have a friend you can spend time with Danny, are we to accept Melissa as your first girlfriend?" Dad asked with a smile.

"I think so Dad, we kinda talked about that, her Mom told me that she approved of me as Melissa's boyfriend, her Dad did too. Mrs. Dean gave us some rules that we had to follow or she would no longer approve of us seeing each other."

"What were the rules Danny?" Dad asked.

"Well, no dates on school nights, no dates two nights in a row, unless we got permission first, no touching each other under our clothes, 11:00 curfew on Friday nights 11:30 on Saturday nights. Those were about most of them."

"I see, well I think you and Melissa need to wait a while before you start touching and doing more than kissing and holding hands, she's younger than you and she could be more eager to learn because you, re older and she wants to impress her friends."

"We'll obey the rules as Mrs. Dean gave them to us. I want to be sure that she meets your approval too and that we can come here and get our homework done, and spend some time together. We really like each other."

"I approve of her Danny, she's a sweet girl and very cute," Mom smiled.

"Yes Ma'am, she'll be at Patch's Saturday. She comes over and helps us in the garage, Patch thinks she is a real keeper."

"He does, does he? Well I'm sure Patch enjoys the company of both of you, just don't take advantage of his generosity by taking up too much time with your girlfriend on the job," Dad said.

"I won't Dad, I've got to shower and get to bed. I'm gonna pick Melissa up tomorrow morning. Can we get the license on the truck on Monday, Dad?"

"I'll talk to Patch Saturday and get the papers. Your Mom and I can make it to City Hall before they close Monday."

"Thanks Dad, night Mom, night, Dad." I hugged them, I saw them looking at each other, smiling as I turned to go to my room.

-------

"Did you catch that smell on him, Bess?" Daniel Millen asked his wife.

"Yes, we may need to have a talk with the Deans."

"We all know they're going to explore and experiment, we need to make sure they're responsible though," He told her.

"I know, I think Danny's got enough sense to keep a level head about sex, but we both know it can be a bit overwhelming at first too," She smiled.

"I'll have a talk with him," He told her, and went to Danny's room.

-------

"Hi Dad, I was just about to take a shower," I knew Dad would never come to my room and close the door unless he wanted to have a personal talk. I was nervous. I knew I'd come close to lying to my parents.

"Danny I just wanted to tell you that I smelled you. I don't think your Mom did though.

"You and Melissa need to be more careful when you fool around. Don't let her parents smell sex on her or your girlfriend will be grounded and you'll be banned from their home."

"I'm sorry Dad, we did fool around some, we both got excited about each other." I told him, hoping he didn't ask what we did. I would be too embarrassed to tell him.

"Danny, I know you and Melissa are young and think you're falling in love. I have no problem with that, that, s the way God made us. We just have to use good judgment and you as the male in this relationship have to be the strong one.

"There'll be times the two of you will want to do more than kiss and touch. You may even have experienced this and did some exploring.

"I know you both will want to experiment with the feelings that your body tells you it likes.

"I want you to promise me, if the two of you ever want to go further than touching and exploring, that you will use protection.

"I'm not condoning the two of you having sex, I'm just saying you need to use good judgment and use protection. Here, there's three condoms in this packet, keep them for emergency only."

"We will Dad, thanks for talking to me about it. It's all so new and so exciting to both of us. We've talked and we know we want to do more, but Melissa has told me that we can never go all the way. That is until we're older and know exactly what we want," I said and was hoping Dad could see that though we wanted more, we were willing to wait.

"Good Danny, just remember, when a male and female get aroused, they both give off a smell of sex and others can smell it. Though you may not, because your body accepts this smell as good. It takes more than water to remove the smell, you need to use soap next time," Dad smiled and patted me on the shoulder.

"Tell Melissa she needs to keep some kind of female spray with her or in your pickup. If she can't talk to her sister or her mother, tell her to come talk to your Mom, she'll help her."

"Thanks Dad, I sure don't want to do something that'll cause me to lose her, but I know we'll want to explore more too as we go along. Do you think that's wrong of us?"

"No, it's only normal and natural to want to explore and experiment, just use good judgment.

"Now get your shower and get some sleep, that little girl will be waiting for you when you get there tomorrow. You watch over her and take care of her for her parents, they'll love you forever for that. If you have to, tell her NO."

"Thanks, Dad, I love you, I'll tell you if Melissa and I run upon something we don't understand. We'll use good judgment and when the time comes, we'll use protection."

"That's all I can ask of you, Danny. We as parents, can't be there with you, we don't even want to be there. We just ask you to remember what you've been taught and make good judgments based on that."

"We will Dad."

-------

I was a little bit early getting to Melissa's house the next morning, but she was on the porch swing as I pulled into the driveway. She was wearing a blue pleated skirt and a white blouse and white shoes.

I wished at that minute I had a picture of her dressed like that, her brown hair was like silk as it lay against the side of her face and down on her neck.

She jumped off the porch, her skirt flying up and she ran to my side of the truck as I got out to let her in. She was carrying her books and two blankets folded up.

"Hi Danny, I missed you," She said, as she ran to me and leaned over the bundle of blankets, kissing me on the lips.

"Let's get the blankets spread on the seats, so I won't get my panties dirty," She smiled that smile, handing me the blankets. She ran around to the passenger side and opened the door, as I spread one blanket over the seat cushion, we pulled it tight then tucked it down between the seat and the backrest.

I took the other blanket, threw one end to her and we put one edge over the seat back, then tucked the bottom down between the seat and the backrest. It looked good to me.

Melissa didn't get in, she closed the door, and ran around to get in on my side, as she stepped up on the running board she turned and kissed me as I ran my hand under her skirt and rubbed her butt.

"You look so good this morning. I wish I could hold you naked again," I told her, as she slid across the seat, her skirt skinning up her leg. She never pulled it down.

"I'll be glad when we can do that again, I want to do a lot of stuff with you, Danny," She smiled, and kissed my cheek as I backed out of her driveway.

"Me too, Melissa. I have to tell you, though, Dad came into my room and talked to me last night. I was just about to take a shower, he told me he had smelled sex real strong on me and that we had be more careful."

"Oh My God, Mom came to my room and told me the same thing. I was so scared, and I started crying. I just knew I had messed up the first time I got to be alone with you. She told me that she remembered when she was young, and she did the same things with the rules her Mom had given her that we did.

"When I told her I got excited and sucked you, she asked if you did me too."

"Melissa, you told her what we did?" I knew I was a goner.

"Yes Danny, she said you were a winner and to keep you happy if you could make me feel that good with your mouth," She smiled and I blushed.

"My Dad gave me these, he said keep them for emergencies and never do anything without thinking first" I showed her the condoms.

"Mom gave me this spray and told me to use it the next time you got me so excited I started to smell like sex" Melissa showed me a little bottle of feminine spray.

"Put them both in the glove box, if you can get it open," I told her, and we both laughed.

"Mom and I are going to get me an appointment to see her gynecologist, and get me on the pill; she said that didn't mean we could have sex, just that she didn't want us to be without some backup protection, in case we got too excited." Melissa grinned at me.

She wanted to tell me all about her talk with her Mom, she was still excited that her Mom trusts her now.

-------

"Melissa?" she said her Mom spoke as she walked in her room, closing the door. Oh God Danny, I knew this meant a talk was coming, I was hoping Mom wasn't upset about something, I was on top of the clouds right now, I didn't want to come down.

"Yes, Mom?" I was sitting on my bed in nothing but my panties.

"You and I need to talk about some things. I don't want you to be upset with me for telling you this, but you have an odor of sex on you and it's very strong."

"Oh Mom, I'm sorry. Danny and I did touch and feel, we looked at each other, but we didn't do the real sex thing." Boy did I ever start crying then. I felt like I had betrayed Mom's trust in me.

"Listen to me Melissa, don't cry. You and Danny did nothing wrong, you just need to know that when a woman gets aroused, she gives off certain odors and those odors can be smelled, even in your room. You have to be careful and wash properly after you've become aroused this way. I'm going to give you this small bottle of spray, you keep it with you at all times and use it when you and Danny get excited and start exploring each other."

"Mom, we did explore and Danny kept telling me that you wouldn't like what we were doing, but I wanted more and he did too and we touched and kissed and we looked at each other over real good down there." I told her everything.

I wanted Mom's love and I was ashamed that I'd had gone against her rules.

"Melissa, look at me," Mom told me and I was really scared then.

"Yes Ma'am," I knew the end of my world was coming Danny, I just knew she was going to tell me I couldn't see you anymore."

"You did nothing wrong you're young and you're in love, you're excited by all these new feelings. You and Danny just need to remember that there's a lot to learn, you have the rest of your life to learn it," she was talking like she understood and I felt a lot better.

"The first thing is what we're talking about right now. When you get aroused, you give off odors. It's not a bad thing, it just lets everyone around you know what you've been up to," she told me and I felt a lot better, even if I did stink.

"Then you're not mad at me for what we did?" I asked her, I wanted to hear her say that she wasn't mad.

"I don't know what all you did. I'm not sure I want to know, either. If you think what you did was important and you like the way you feel because of it, then I just hope you followed my rules, if you did, I won't be mad," I was shocked by that, but happy at the same time.

"Well, Mom I kinda bent the rules a little. Danny told me that he thought you meant exactly what you said, but I convinced him that the way I saw it, we could do things and still be within the rules."

"You're talking about not touching beneath the clothes, aren't you?"

"Yes, Ma'am."

"So you pulled up your clothes, or pulled them off, so you wouldn't have to touch under your clothes?"

"Yes Ma'am, how did you know?" Mom already knew what we felt and why we did it.

"Those were the rules my Mom gave me, remember? When I was your age, I was just as excited about learning as you are, I wanted to experiment too. I was dating your Dad and I convinced him that he could see me 'down there' if there were no clothes on me and we'd still be within the rules. I even got him to take his 'thing' out, so I could see it. I got excited and gave him his first blow job, it was my first time too." I think I saw Mom in a different way right then, as she told me this. Mom was talking as if she liked sex as much as I do.

"Wow Mom so did I. I loved it too, I saw how good it made Danny feel, I felt like I knew a special secret and I had a new found power."

"Did he return the feeling?" Mom asked me this and smiled, when I smiled real big.

"Did he ever Mom. I felt like I was riding on a sky-rocket when he did me."

"Good, it took me a year to get your Dad to return the feeling. You have a winner, Melissa. Just remember to be responsible and use good judgment. When the time comes and you and Danny feel like you know what you want, you may want to go all the way. If you ever do, please use protection and use the female spray I just gave you."

"Thanks Mom, I thank God every day for making you my Mom," I told her and I meant it too. Mom was treating me like I was grown, even though I'd bent her rules, I loved her more than ever for that.

"Thank you, Melissa I don't know that I've ever been more proud of you for what you just said and for being such a smart young girl. You and I need to make an appointment to see the gynecologist and get you on the pill. I'm not saying it's okay to have sex, I just want you protected if you happen to want Danny and you don't have protection with you." Boy, Danny, now that made me feel like I was Helen's age, Mom telling me that. I was back happy again and my Mom still loved me.

"Thanks Mom, you're the best, I love you so much," I grabbed Mom and we hugged for the longest, I just wanted to be so close to her right then, she made me feel so special.

"Go shower Melissa, you smell like sex," Mom told me and I couldn't help but laugh at what she said, then Mom laughed too. She even pulled my panties off, holding them out away from her, while holding her nose all the way to the hamper. We both laughed and Mom stayed in the bathroom, sitting on the commode until I got my shower. Danny, when I got out, she was holding a big towel, she wrapped me in it and dried me off. Mom told me to sleep naked when she went back to my room with me. She told me I'd feel better if I did. Mom kissed me and we hugged again for a long time.

"You parents are really neat Melissa."

"Yours are too Danny, we're both lucky."

"I agree. Did you bring your overalls to wear today at the shop? You are going with me, aren't you?"

"Dang, I forgot to get them. I knew I was forgetting something, can we run by and get them this afternoon?"

"Sure, but we're not gonna work on the truck, Patch said we'd just wash it today."

"Well then, I guess I can get by one day without working in the shop," She grinned and her nose crinkled at the top and her freckles looked so good in the sunlight.

"Look, there's Dotty, Claire and Julie. Pull in here, let me get out so they can see us, I want a kiss too when we get out," She said as she pulled my hand to her crotch on top of her skirt.

"You just want them to be jealous of you getting a ride," I said

"I want them to be jealous of me having a boyfriend that has a truck, who brings me to school with my parent's permission and me giving him a blow jobs and getting my pussy sucked, all in one day," Melissa said as she squeezed my hand between her thighs.

"Hi, Julie, Dotty, Claire. You remember Danny Millen, don't you? This is his truck. We'll be riding to school every day now," Melissa said as she stood on the running board and kissed me on the mouth as I held her waist. I picked her up and set her on the ground, then turned to her friends.

"Hi Claire, Julie, Dotty, how are y'all this morning."

"Fine," they all said and smiled at me and looked at Melissa, like she was a queen or something as she pulled me down for one last kiss.

"See you this afternoon Danny, bye for now," She said.

"Bye Melissa, bye girls," I said as I got in and drove off.

I backed my old Studebaker in between two cars in the parking lot with the teacher's vehicles and the few seniors that had cars. I was as proud of it as if it were a Rolls Royce, not that I had even seen one.

"Hey Danny is that your truck?" Ronnie Brown asked as he walked by.

"Yeah, just got it running yesterday, '37 Studebaker pickup coupe," I said as I patted the fender and walked away from it.

"Sure looks neat" He said.

"Thanks, we're gonna wash it today, then sand it and prime it soon," I told him.

"We, as in who is we?"

"My girl friend and me," I said loudly. He fell right into that one like I had hoped he would.

"Hey man you got a girlfriend?"

"Yeah we just started going out."

"Dang man, I wish I had a girlfriend and some wheels. How did you swing the money for the truck?"

"I got a job, I'm gonna work it out," I said proudly

"No shit, you got a job, a girl and a truck too, I know I got to get out and find me a job now. Who's the lucky girl?" He said.

"Melissa Dean, the Mayor's daughter," I said proudly.

"Damn Danny, I saw her the other day. She's HOT man. You are one lucky shit, is all I know."

"Yeah I am Ronnie, I really am," I said as we walked into the junior high building.

-------

"Hey pretty lady you need a ride?" I said, as I pulled up beside Melissa where she stood near the driveway, close to her building.

"Yes kind Sir, I hope you're going my way, but then wherever you're going is fine with me," She smiled, giggling her little giggle, as she stepped up on the running board to kiss me.

"You're so beautiful Melissa, I really think I'm about to fall in love with you," I said as she sat beside me close.

"I feel the same way Danny, I hurt when I'm away from you and I am so happy when I am with you. Can we drive down by the river before we go home today, just to look around and be alone?"

"Sure I'd like that. Maybe you and I could go down there and have a picnic some Sunday now that we have a truck."

"YES, I want us to do that, I want you to put your mouth on me again while we're there, will you."

"Just be ready, I want to taste you again so bad and see you when you get your cum."

"Hush, I'll have to get the pussy spray out if you don't," She giggled.

"Hi Patch," Melissa yelled as she bounced off the running board and ran to him to give him a hug.

"Hi Melissa, you still letting this old boy hang around with you?" He smiled, as he looked at me, winking.

"Hi Patch, how was your day? Melissa knows a good thing when she sees it," I laughed.

"Great Danny, you guys wanna wash this old truck outside the garage so we can see what all we got to look forward to when we sand it?" He asked.

"Sure if you don't mind me doing that on your time," I said.

"We're in this together Danny, I told you I'd help you get it going."

"Patch I forgot my overalls, I may have to just stand back and watch today."

"Oh no you don't, you're in this just like Danny and me," He said as he walked over to where he kept his clean uniforms and pulled some clean coveralls down off the rack.

"These came for you today," He said, as he held out a small set of coveralls, just like the ones he and I wore.

"Oh My God, are these mine?" She yelled.

"Well, they sure won't fit Danny or me," Patch laughed.

"Go in that parts room over there and change, you're gonna have to be barefoot though, you cant mess up those shoes," He laughed again and looked at me.

Melissa took off to the parts room with her new coveralls and I looked at Patch.

"Patch, you know she loves coming here and working with us, she can't wait to get here in the afternoons."

"I know and when the uniform man ran by today, I got him to look for a kids size coverall and he had two on his truck. I got them both."

"Look at me, how do I look now?" Melissa came out of the parts room, I could have kissed her right there in front of Patch, she looked so good. Her coveralls fit her like they were measured and made for her. Her sexy butt pushed out behind and her little titties were poking out in front. She had the zipper pulled up just past them and I could see some skin, no bra.

"Melissa, you're the best looking shop help I ever had," Patch said.

"Thanks Patch, I'm so proud of my coveralls, wait till I tell Mom and Dad," She grinned.

"Danny, let's get this truck washed. Roll the windows up and close that vent in front of the windshield. I'll get the bucket, the brush and the soap," Patch told us.

I got up in the back of the truck and washed the top and back of the cab, then down the sides of the pickup bed. Melissa washed the rear fenders and Patch washed the hood and the front fenders.

I took the hose, with the spray nozzle and rinsed all we had washed. The truck looked good wet.

We washed the rest of the body, then washed the wheels. I rinsed it off and it really looked good now. Those white spoke rims really set it off.

Melissa and I took the blankets out and laid them in the garage.

Patch took the scrub brush and the hose and washed the floorboards out in the cab and Melissa washed the dash, doors and the inside of the windshield with her wash rag.

"Wow that looks good Danny," Melissa said as we all stood back and looked it over with the doors wide open so the inside would dry.

"It sure does Danny, I never thought it would look that good just having the dust washed off," Patch said.

"I agree, lets see what it looks like when it dries," I said and we all put our washing equipment up.

"Danny, I think we can wait for a while to sand this old truck down and prime it. The paint looks a lot better than I thought it would sitting out there in that shed," Patch said and we all agreed.

"Me too, Patch. Melissa, what do you think? Should we wait a while or sand the paint off now?" I turned and asked her as she looked closely at the paint that had dried.

"I see the paint is still in good shape for the most part, some of it around the top of the doors and the top rail of the bed is faded, but not bad. I say we wait too," She looked up at us, and grinned.

I could have hugged her.

So I did. I grabbed her, and hugged her to me, with her coveralls and all. Then Patch grabbed her and hugged her too and she giggled, she was just too cute to pass up.

"You two take off for the rest of the day. But be here early in the morning. We'll be busy until after noon, we always are on Saturdays," Patch told us.

"Wait I've got to get my clothes," Melissa giggled and took off for the parts room.

"Thanks Patch, we'll be here early tomorrow," I said as we left him standing there smiling.

"Look Danny, I don't have any undies on under my coveralls," Melissa said as she zipped her zipper all the way down to her crotch. I could see her thin pussy hair just above the bottom of the zipper, and I got a hard on.

"Dang Melissa, I never know what you're gonna pull next," I laughed.

"I want to pull on your dick next if you'll let me," She giggled and took my hand and let it slip into her coveralls to hold her breast.

"Let's go down by the river Danny. I want to see your dick and show you my pussy," She grinned.

"I'll get us a cold Coke each and we'll head that way," I said as I pulled in to the service station and bought two Cokes from the machine.

I got back in the truck and Melissa sat there with her zipper all the way down to the bottom just smiling as I handed her the two bottles to hold.

"You're a little daredevil."

"I know, just wait until we get out in the country, I'm going to get naked right here in your truck."

"Our truck Melissa, it's our truck."

"Oh Danny I love you" She yelped and flew toward me and kissed me on the mouth.

"Oops I almost spilled our Cokes. I better let you hold them," She said as she put them between my legs for me to hold, as I drove.

I looked over at her and she was twisting and turning to get her coveralls off her shoulders. When she did, she just pulled them off and kicked them onto the clean floorboard.

"Hold my titty as you drive Danny," She said, snuggling down under my right arm.

I cupped her right titty and her hard nipple, as she wiggled even closer to me.

"Unzip yours too Danny," she said, as she reached up to pull my zipper down on my coveralls.

"Melissa, we may need to wait until we get to the river before we both get naked," I laughed but I wanted to be naked with her.

"At least pull them down to your knees I want to suck your dick some more," She was still pulling my coveralls off my shoulders and my arms.

I lifted my butt and she leaned over my lap and pulled and tugged and laughed, as she pulled them all the way to my ankles.

Melissa never even raised her head back up. She gulped my dick head into her mouth and went to sucking all in one motion.

I reached around her and cupped her right breast again, she moaned into my dick and I shoved my hips up to meet her mouth.

"Touch my butt," She raised her head and told me.

I took my right hand and lay it over her back and let my fingers trail down her smooth butt and into her crack.

"Unnnn hunnn," She said as she sucked harder, wiggling her butt back to my hand.

She got up on her knees now as she bent over my lap to suck me. She put one leg in the floor and kept the other knee under her.

"Touch my pussy and my butt hole now Danny," she said as she gulped my dick back inside her mouth, like she needed it to stay alive.

I felt for her pussy and she was wet. I took my finger and smelled it then licked her pussy juice off and put my finger right between her tight pussy lips and wiggled it around.

Melissa wiggled back and raised her head.

"Put one finger in my pussy Danny," she gasped and sucked my dick deeper into her mouth.

I put it about an inch into her and worked it real fast back and forth, not really going inside her very deep, but working her pussy over good, I felt her clitty pop up and I worked it over good too.

From her chest to her butt, Melissa started rolling her body up and down like a worm as she pushed back onto my finger, her lower body was raising and lowering as she fucked her own pussy with my finger.

"Cummm in my mouth Danny I want you to," She screamed.

I did.

I shot her mouth full, it ran out over my legs, as she tried to swallow it all.

What she let run out, she licked up, as I eased two fingers into her. She screamed again as she got her cum. I made sure I didn't go too deep and hurt her, but I gave her a good rub down all over her little pussy lips and clitty as she bucked and jumped like a horse with a bur under its saddle.

"Give me a drink of Coke Danny. That was really good that time," She giggled before she took a big swig.

I'd been holding the Coke bottles by their necks with my left hand and I had a finger hooked around the steering wheel too.

We were almost to the Mississippi River levee now and I slowed some to turn off the main road onto the gravel road down the top of the levee.

I drove about two hundred yards, then went down a side ramp on the levee toward the river. The river was about a good hundred yards from the levee, so I drove out to where I could park under some big Cottonwoods and we opened the doors in the shade.

Melissa sat back on her feet with her knees pointed at me while we finished our Cokes. I could see her small pussy split as she sat there she saw me looking at her, spread her knees more.

"I like it when you look at me Danny, it makes me feel so good all over," She smiled her cute little smile, her freckles seemed to come alive.

"I really like looking at you too. I have to shake my head to realize that you're actually here and you're falling in love with me. I never dreamed of having a girl as nice and as beautiful and sexy as you Melissa."

"Oh Danny you make me feel so good," She sprang at me from her sitting position and we went into a clutch, as we sat there.

"Will you do that thing that you do with my pussy? Danny, I want to feel you kissing me and touching me all over," She looked up at me, smiling again.

I had parked the truck with the driver's side door toward the levee. I got out on the river side and she lay back across the blanket covered seat as I stood on the ground, leaning in to see her spread open exposed body waiting for me to pleasure.

I started at her feet, sliding my hands upward to her thighs. Melissa wriggled and giggled and opened her legs some more. I slid my hands past her pussy and up on her flat belly. Then on to her little breasts, as she moaned and tried to raise her head to look down at my hands on her.

I was leaning in as far as I could and she scooted down under me so that my face was right over her pussy.

I didn't tease her any longer. I leaned my face down and pushing hard right in between her thighs with my nose in her pussy. I moved up and started licking her as she opened her legs and put her feet on the blanket.

I pulled her to me some more, as she lay with her legs wide open to let me go where I wanted.

I wanted her pussy, I licked and sucked her, I pulled her tight little lips open and looked inside her small opening at the pink folds and the shiny inner lips that were covered in her girl juices.

I wanted to know more about this part of her. I wanted to find something to read that would tell me what everything was on her body. I wanted to explore and find and experience her so I could pleasure her.

For now I settled for kissing her sweet pussy all over and probing her as deep as my tongue would go. I did push too hard once in my excitement and her body flinched and she jerked. I knew I was going too deep though I knew nothing about how she was made.

"Touch my belly and my titties when you kiss my pussy Danny. Pull my pussy open some and kiss me but don't go too deep, it hurts some if you push on my hymen," She told me.

"Is that what I touched with my tongue just now when you jerked?" I asked.

"Yes but don't stop kissing and exploring. I want us to save that part of me for a special time in our lives. Mom said that was a girl's gift to the man she loved and I want to give it to you one day."

"I'll wait and let you choose the time and the place Melissa. We can have so much fun exploring and kissing and sucking without that for a while."

"You make me feel so good and so alive when you kiss me all over down there. I love the feelings that go through my body and make me itch and tingle all over. I want to cum now Danny. Will you make me have a good one?"

"You just hang onto something. I'm gonna suck a big one right out of you Melissa."

"Do me Danny, do me good like the last time," she whispered to me as I bent to get some more of her sweet nectar all over my face.

With my hands cupping and massaging her titties, I gently squeezed her nipples and felt them swell up.

I licked and kissed her all over her belly and probed her pussy until I found her tiny little clitty. Then I teased and licked and sucked on the nub until it popped up for more.

Melissa was going wild beneath me, she was moaning and humming and pushing her hips off the seat in an effort to get closer to my mouth.

With her legs stiff, her feet on the seat, she pushed her lower body up hard and froze in place as she trembled and shook until she fell back.

I looked at her face, she was smiling as she held her arms out to me. I stepped onto the running board and leaning over closer to her as she hugged my face and kissed me through all the slippery juices of her sexual release.

"They just keep getting better and better Danny. I want to feel this way for the rest of my life. Please love me just like this forever."

"I will Melissa, I know we're young and inexperienced and we're just now falling in love, but I want you with me every day and every hour we can."

"I want you the same way Danny. I don't ever want to be away from you again. I'm yours, Daniel Lee Millen and I love you."

"I am yours Melissa Gail Dean I love you so much, I feel empty when you're not close to me."

We hugged there in the pickup seat, still wet with sweat and wet with the drying cum that was all over both of us.

We didn't have a wash cloth with us, but I did have two clean shop rags and I wiped her good and she mopped the sweat with the other one, then she washed my face with my sweat and hers too.

We both pulled our coveralls on our sweaty bodies. After much wiggling and shrugging to get them over our shoulders, we finally got them zipped halfway, leaving the zipper down to get some air on our bodies when we started moving.

"That was the best ever Danny, you're the best thing in my life," She said as she snuggled up to me with my arm over her shoulder, cupping her right breast, on the way back to town.

-------

Saturday morning, I was in a hurry to pick up Melissa and get to Patch's shop. She was ready, dressed in her clean coveralls. She jumped off the porch and ran to me. I picked her up and swung her around as we kissed, then I stood her on the running board so we could kiss as we always did now.

"Good morning handsome I've missed you," She looked at me and smiled.

"Good morning Angel I've missed you too," I hugged her to me and we drove over to Patch's.

I pulled into his drive, over to the side because he had said we'd be busy today.

"Morning, good to see my young helpers here so early, when I opened this morning, I found this hanging around the door begging," He said as he held out a small puppy to Melissa.

"Oh wow Patch, he's so cute. Can we keep him?" She ran to hold the puppy.

"Sure, as a matter of fact, you can have him, he's yours," Patch told her and she held the puppy to her with one hand and hugged Patch with one arm around his neck.

She put the puppy on the ground and he was in a running happy fit as he ran around us and between her legs and he yipped and scampered around the drive.

The puppy ran a wider circle and went toward the street. Melissa ran to get him and he turned from her, she was chasing him and he ran playfully around in circles. Melissa ran to get him, when she turned back, she never saw the car that was passing by.

My whole body went into shock as I watched what was happening. The clock in my body that ticks my life away a second at a time, stopped and my voice froze in my throat as I saw her limp body fly over the hood of the car and land on the curb, lifeless.

"Patch," I screamed as I ran to her.

"Danny, she's hurt bad get her in the pickup we have to get her to Martinsville in a hurry," Patch said as we knelt down over Melissa.

Her eyes rolled up and looked at me and I cried.

The side of her face was red and swelling, her left arm was hanging down limply as I raised her head. Her hair was matted in blood in back of her head and she was bleeding from her ear and her nose.

"I hurt Danny, don't leave me. I hurt Danny, I love you," She said and her eyes closed.

"Hurry Danny, get her in here," Patch yelled at me as he held the door open to the old Studebaker truck.

I picked her like a limp doll as she lay in my arms, lifeless. I could see her small chest move slightly as she took shallow breaths. I lifted her and stepped into the cab of the truck as Patch took off in a roar and a cloud of blue smoke.

"Talk to her Danny, make her stay awake and talk to you," Patch yelled at me as we sped out of the city limits. It was fifteen miles over to Martinsville and the hospital.

"Melissa listen to me Melissa, you'll be alright. Patch and I are here and we're taking you to the hospital. Can you hear me Melissa?"

"Danny I hurt."

"I know you hurt Melissa, I love you. You'll be alright, we'll be the hospital soon and you will be alright. Can you hear me Melissa?"

"I hurt Danny, don't leave me Danny, I need you to hold me."

"I'll hold you Melissa, you'll be alright. I love you Melissa."

"Patch will it run any faster?" I asked as I saw the side of her face begin to swell bad and she was turning blue all over her face now.

"We may blow it up, but we're gonna get there with her Danny, hang on," He said as the old truck sped even faster now, the engine was roaring and the wind was whipping in the windows against us now.

"Talk to her Danny. Tell her you love her and not to ever leave you," Patch said.

"Melissa can you hear me? I love you and you better not leave me, we're gonna love each other forever. I don't want to be without you, do you hear me Melissa? You better tell me you love me Melissa or I'll spank your butt good for you," I said as I tried to think of something to make her mad.

"I love you Danny, don't leave me please Danny, just hold me and make it stop hurting," She said as her head fell over to the side and she was quiet.

"Here we are Danny, I'll pull up to the emergency room and help you get her inside," Patch said.

Before the truck had stopped, I had the door open and my feet on the ground. I ran with her to the big double doors as someone in a white coat came out.

"Help her, she was hit by a car please help her," I screamed at the man.

"Hurry get her in here," He turned, opening the door and ran to a room with curtains over the door.

"Nurse call the doctor we have a life or death emergency," He screamed as we ran by the desk.

"Lay her on the table and get back so we can get to her," He yelled as the room filled with men and women in white.

"You'll have to step out so we can help your friend we'll do everything we can to save her, just step out and we'll see what we can do," The first man that I had met told me, as he put his arm on my shoulder and led me from the room.

"Please don't let her die I love her and she needs me. I need her please don't let her die mister," I cried as I clung to his white coat and shook him.

"Danny come with me and we'll call Melissa's parents," Patch was here now and I grabbed him and held on tight.

I watched as Patch dialed the pay phone in slow motion then he stood for a long time before he spoke.

"Hello Mrs. Dean, this is Patch Coleman I need you to come to the hospital in Martinsville in a hurry. Melissa was hit by a car and Danny and I brought her here we just got here so I don't know anything yet.

"Yes Ma'am, Danny's alright but he's messed up bad because Melissa got hurt. Yes Ma'am, if you will call his parents and let them know. Please hurry, Mrs. Dean," Patch hung the phone up and took me by the shoulder and led me to a seat.

"Danny you have to be strong your parents and Melissa's parents, will be here soon," Patch told me.

"You wait right here Danny, I'm going to see if they can tell me anything. I'll be right back," He said as he walked away quickly.

I looked across the wide hallway and saw a sign that said 'Prayer Room',

I jumped up and ran across the hall, into the room.

There were three people sitting on a bench close to the back as I ran to the front.

"Oh God I know I don't talk to you much and I know you don't know who I am, but I need you to hear me. I need you to spare Melissa Gail Dean's life and take mine instead. If you can, Lord. She's so young and pretty and she's so full of life. Lord, just let her live and I'll go in her place," I prayed aloud as I knelt down in front of the altar.

I don't know how long I was there, the next thing I remember, was my Mom holding my head on her knee, as she knelt by the altar.

"Melissa, Mom how is Melissa?" I screamed as I looked up to see Dad and Mr. and Mrs. Dean looking down at me with tears in their eyes.

"Danny they told us that Melissa isn't going to make it. They said she had some swelling in her brain and a lot of internal injuries. Danny no, just lie still and listen you can't blame yourself, you and Patch did all you could. We will just have to wait and pray and hope Melissa makes it.

"Danny, the doctor said she may wake up, or she may not, but she would never walk, or talk again. She's had too much bruising on her brain," Mom held me and cried as she told me this.

"You're wrong, the doctor's wrong. Melissa is going to make it. I just know she is. I need to see her and hold her hand. She'll be alright Mom, I just know she will. God told me she would just now, Mom. He won't let her die. I need to tell her so she will know that God said she would be alright."

"Danny listen to your Mom. Please let us help you over to a seat and you calm down a little. We know you loved Melissa," Mrs. Dean said.

"No I need to see Melissa, I'm going to her," I said as I fought to get loose and ran down the hall to where they had taken her.

"Where is Melissa Dean, I need to tell her something," I yelled at the nurse.

"They've taken her to ICU she's unconscious, she wouldn't know you were there. They've set her arm and put it in a temporary cast she has broken ribs and a badly bruised and swollen head," she told me, "You're the one who brought her in aren't you, you're name is Danny."

"Yes, how did you know?"

"Melissa kept talking to you all the time they were working on her. They couldn't knock her out, so they gave her shots while they set her arm and tended her other injuries," She told me.

"Please, help me. I need to go to her and let her know I'm here, she needs me, I have to tell her that I love her, you just got to let me see her Ma'am," I pleaded as I saw Mom and Dad come in the room now.

"I'll tell the doctor," She said and left.

"Danny they're doing all they can for her, we need to let them do what's best for her right now," Mrs. Dean came to me and held me.

"But I love her and I need to tell her that I love her and I don't want her to leave me," I sobbed and cried into her dress, as she pulled me tighter to her.

I felt a hand on my shoulder and turned to see a doctor.

"Come with me Danny, you can see her for just a minute, you have to understand that she's had major head injuries and her face is badly swollen. She's not going to look like you remember her, but you hold her right hand and talk to her and see if she responds," he told me as he led me away from my parents and Melissa's parents.

I looked at the person on the bed and I knew it was her. I ran to her bed and took her right hand as kissed it.

"Melissa I'm here, can you hear me Melissa?" I pleaded with her to hear me.

"Melissa tell me you hear me. You know I love you and I need you here with me, please talk to me Melissa," I cried.

The doctor pushed a chair up behind me and I sat down by her bed and laid my head against her right arm as I held her hand.

"Melissa, you need to hurry and get well. We've got a lot of work to do on our old Studebaker truck. You and Patch and me are gonna sand it and paint it one day and you need to get up from there and help us.

"Melissa I asked God to let you live and He said He would. He told me to take real good care of you, that He would be watching over us and I had better make you happy, for as long as you live. Melissa you need to get well so we can do what God wants us to do."

"Melissa I sure need to kiss you and hold you close like we did at the river. You told me you wanted more and more of that. If you get well and get out of here, I'll give you all you can stand at one time, you'll beg me to stop."

"Melissa can you hear me? Squeeze my hand and let me know you can hear me."

"Melissa I need to see one more of your sweet smiles, that makes your freckles kinda crinkle up on your nose and I need to hear you giggle and tell me you really love me. Melissa you've just got to get well so we can ride to school in that old Studebaker truck and show off for your girlfriends."

"Danny you really need to leave now she can't hear you and we need to be able to care for her without you being in the way," The nurse told me.

"I'm not leaving her, the Doctor told me I could be here and I'm staying," I told her.

"Nurse, let him stay, its not going to hurt her anymore, it may even do her some good if she can hear him," the Doctor said.

"Melissa did you hear the Doctor he said I could stay. Can you hear me Melissa? Please squeeze my hand if you hear me."

"DOCTOR, Melissa squeezed my hand, she heard me. I felt it, she squeezed my hand," I yelled as the Doctor turned to leave then ran back to the bed.

"Danny that may have just been an involuntary muscle contraction, are you sure she squeezed your hand?" He asked as he held her eye open and shined a light in it.

"She did Doctor. Melissa do it again, show him you squeezed my hand, show him you hear me," I cried, as I held her hand.

"She did it again, doctor put your hand on mine and she'll show you. Show him, Melissa. Squeeze my hand, show him that you hear me and that you love me Melissa, squeeze my hand again.

"See Doctor, did you feel that? I told you she could hear me. I told you she squeezed my hand," I sobbed as the Doctor smiled at me and nodded his head.

"Tell her to do it again Danny, tell her to try real hard to smile and squeeze your hand at the same time."

"Melissa the Doctor needs you to smile and squeeze my hand. will you show him you can, so he'll believe me. Show him you love me Melissa," I cried.

"See Doctor. See, I told you she did. Did you see her smile, did you feel her squeeze my hand?"

"I did Danny and this is a good sign, but she'll have a rough time over the next 72 hours, if she can get through that, she'll have a chance.

You understand though, she's really weak, she has some bad injuries, which could take her at any time."

"No Doctor, you just don't understand. God told me she would be alright. She will, I just know she will," I said as I lay my head next to her arm on the bed.

I raised my head and looked to see Mayor Dean and Mrs. Dean, and Helen, standing beside Melissa's bed on the other side. They were looking down at her and they were all crying.

"She's gonna be okay, she squeezed my hand and smiled. She knows I'm here and I'm not leaving her, she knows I love her," I said as I tried to convince them that Melissa was gonna be alright.

"Danny your Mom and Dad want you to go home. I'm going to stay the night with Melissa," Mrs. Dean told me.

"No Ma'am, I told Melissa I was gonna stay with her and I'm staying. Tell Mom I'll be alright, but Melissa needs me right now. I'll see them later. Please make them believe she's gonna be alright. God told me she was," I said as I looked up at them.

"We'll tell her Danny, you can stay and I'll be right here too," She said and smiled through her tears and left.

Helen came around the bed and hugged me as she touched her sister's hand.

"Keep talking to her Danny, tell her for me, that I love her," She said and kissed me on the cheek.

Chapter 4



I woke up sometime during the night and Mrs. Dean was sitting in a chair on the other side of Melissa's bed. She was asleep and her head was down on her chest. I looked at Melissa and could see a very slight movement of her chest as the pump filled her lungs and then let the air out.

I squeezed her hand and she squeezed mine. I leaned up to kiss her cheek and she squeezed me again.

The nurses came in every few minutes and checked her vital signs. I moved back, but never turned loose of Melissa's hand.

Morning came and daylight began to lighten the room. I looked at Mrs. Dean as she moved and woke up. I watched as she reached out to touch Melissa's shoulder and pat her.

Melissa squeezed my hand harder now.

"Come here Mrs. Dean," I said and she looked at me.

"Come put your hand on mine and Melissa's and feel her," I said.

"Feel her hand when she squeezes my hand," I said.

"Melissa your Mom is here, she wants you to know she loves you. She said you could touch me under my clothes Melissa. Smile for her Melissa and let her know that you want to touch me," I said as I looked at Mrs. Dean.

"I felt that Danny and look at the crooked smile on her face. I believe you now, Danny. Melissa, can you hear me. This is Mom," She said and we felt another squeeze.

"I love you Melissa and if you really want to, you can touch Danny under his clothes. But if you make love to him, please use protection," She said and another smile came across her lips.

"Melissa you need to wake up and tell your Mom what we did. You always tell her and you need to catch her up so she'll know that we didn't touch under our clothes and that we didn't go all the way," I said and squeezed her hand.

She made a sound in her chest, we didn't know if she was trying to say something or just made a sound and then she made another sound and smiled a big smile as her eyes fluttered. Her lips were swollen on the left side of her face, but she still managed a crooked smile once more.

"Danny I'll be right back. I want to use the restroom and see her Dad. I want to find the Doctor too if he's on duty," Mrs. Dean said softly.

"Thank you Danny, you watch over her, I'll be back soon, then you can go to the restroom," She said and left.

"Melissa we're alone, if you want to mess around some. I can kiss your pussy and you can kiss my dick, before they get back. If you got a good cum I know you'd wake up and want to kiss me on my lips," I said and squeezed her hand.

She squeezed my hand and smiled a crooked smile, as her eyes fluttered again but she didn't open her eyelids.

-------

"Danny, Melissa has swollen more during the night," the Doctor told me, as he measured her face. I knew he was worried.

I knew her bruises were darker and her lips were now swollen too much for her to even smile. She still would squeeze my hand as I coaxed her and pushed her to respond.

"Danny she's going to have a lot of damage to her nervous system, she may never walk or talk again." He said.

"But there is still a chance, isn't there doctor?"

"Yes there's always a chance the swelling will go down before too much damage occurs for her to recover."

"Then she'll be alright, I know she will. You'll see Doctor, she'll be alright."

"Danny why don't you go home and get some rest. She's going to be in here for a long time, I'm afraid," The doctor told me.

"I'm not leaving her doctor she needs me and I'm going to be here for her," I told him and lay my head on our hands that were still clasped.

"Danny we all know you love her and she knows it too. She would want you to go get some rest, take a shower and get some food," Mrs. Dean told me.

"Mrs. Dean I can't leave her. I want to be here if she needs me. I want to hold her and she'll know that I'm here and that I love her and need her to be with me. I just can't leave," I was crying and I couldn't help it.

"Its okay Danny, you can stay. I'll bring you something to eat and I'll call your Mom and Dad. You just stay here with Melissa, let her know you love her.

Danny, I believe you now. She'll be alright, it will take some time and a lot of rehab and a lot of healing. But Melissa will be with us, I just know it," she told me as she looked down and held out her arms to me. I hugged her with one arm as I held Melissa's hand with my other hand. I felt Melissa squeeze me hard and I looked, she had tears in her eyes.

"She hears us. Look Mrs. Dean, she hears us," I said as I wiped Melissa's tears from her eyes.

"Thank you Danny, for loving our daughter. She's so lucky to have you and we're all very blessed to have you with her. You stay here and I'll get you something to eat."

-------

"Danny, if Melissa is still stable tomorrow morning, we'll move her to a private room, and you'll have a place to bathe and still be near her. I'll leave instructions for a roll-a-way bed to be put in her room, so you can get some rest," The Doctor told me when he came back by an hour later.

"Thank you Doctor, I just know she'll be alright, I just know she will."

"I believe you Danny. I can see a lot of improvement, hopefully she'll regain consciousness when her swelling goes down some. We'll just have to wait, hope and keep praying," he told me.

"I'll keep praying doctor, you do what you know to do for her. I'll tell her that you said she was gonna be alright and she will be, you'll see," I told him and he smiled and left.

-------

"Danny, here's some food, and a Coke, did the Doctor come back?" Mrs. Dean said.

"Yes, he left just a few minutes ago, he said that if Melissa is still stable tomorrow morning, they'll move her to a private room and I could stay with her. He told me he believed she would be alright, we just have to wait, and keep praying. I told him that I would pray, and for him to just do all he knew what to do."

"That's great news, I'm going to call Harold and call your Mom at work and tell them. Helen's here, she wants to come in. I'll tell her to come in when I leave."

-------

"Danny, let me hold Melissa's hand, while you eat that burger," Helen said, as she sat down next to me.

"Helen I can do this, I need to hold on to her to keep her from slipping away," I told her.

"It's OK Danny, I just wanted to help you so you could eat. I see you're doing good, you must have been hungry. The next time I come to see her, I'll bring you something else to eat. You just keep praying and holding on to her Danny. She's one lucky girl. I would love to have a boy love me, like you do her."

"She squeezed my hand Helen, she heard what you said," I smiled.

"Tell her I'm here Danny and I want her to squeeze my hand too," Helen said as she clasped our hands with hers.

"Melissa, Helen's here, she loves you, Melissa. Tell her you love her too Melissa. Helen wants you to hurry up and come home, she wants you to tell her all the things we did, when we touched," I told her.

"I felt that Danny, I felt her squeeze your hand. Come on little sister, tell me you love me and I won't strip your boyfriend naked and give him a blow job," Helen grinned at me.

"Wow did you feel that? I better go before she gets up and hits me," Helen laughed.

"Missy I'll be back to see you soon, you better get well soon and make love to this boy. There's some really good looking nurses here, I'd love to get my hands on him too," Helen told her as she held on to our hands tight and felt Melissa squeeze again.

"I love you too Missy and I miss you at home," Helen said as she sobbed and sat down close to me. I reached over and pulled her to me with my free hand and she hugged me and cried for a long time, as she looked at her younger sister.

"I'll be here with her Helen. I want you to know that I love you for being her sister and for accepting me as her boyfriend," I told her.

"Thank you Danny, I love you too. I'll be back after work and bring you some food." She kissed me on the cheek and I felt her tears wet my face.

-------

Everything after that was a blur to me the rest of the day I don't remember going to sleep, but I must have dozed some, off and on, all day. I do remember people coming in, the nurses and my Mom and Dad after work. I remember Mayor Dean and Mrs. Dean coming by too and sitting and talking.

I remember Helen coming back after she got off work and I remember them all telling me I needed to eat and that I needed rest.

I'm sure I must have slept some and I do remember squeezing Melissa's hand and her squeezing mine. I know I told her at least a hundred times that I loved her and badly needed her in my life. I know I told her that I wanted to kiss her pussy and I think I may have even said that with Helen in the room but my brain was messed up bad now I hope I didn't, but I wasn't sure.

The next morning at daylight there was a nurse in the room that had been in and out all night. Sometimes I was awake, sometimes she woke me as she moved around to check Melissa. She had the light on and I looked at Melissa's face in the light. I thought I was dreaming at first, her face wasn't swollen and her lips were just barely puffed out a bit.

Her bruises were not as dark and I could see her eyelids flutter as the nurse took her vital signs.

"Does she look better to you or am I dreaming?" I asked the nurse and she jumped, she didn't know I was awake.

"She is sure looking better, the swelling has gone down and her bruises aren't as dark now, sometimes that happens even though the damage is still there. Sometimes it happens and the patient wakes up in a day or two. It's a good sign though, keep praying and keep talking to her Danny, she's responding to you," the nurse told me and I looked at her and I could have sworn she had wings.

Then she was gone.

-------

"Lord it's me again, Danny Millen. I just wanted You to know that I really thank You for helping Melissa. I hope You'll let her come back to her family and me too. I know they love her and You know I do Lord. Please help me to be what she needs in her life and to never let her down.

"Lord if you'll let her come back, I'll help her with rehab, and I'll be there for her, no matter how long it takes for her to heal.

"I really love her, Lord and I know we've done some things that You may not approve of, but we were curious and we're in love. Please forgive me and show me how to love a woman.

"I want her to know she's special to me and Lord, I want You to know that I'll try to do better. But when she looks at me, with that pretty smile and her nose all crinkled up, I see her eyes looking at me I just give in to whatever she wants or needs.

"I hope that's what love is Lord, cause it sure feels good to feel that way.

"Thank you, Lord for hearing me and for helping Melissa. Please let her come back to us like she was before the accident Lord. I'll gladly go any time you're ready for me, if you will."

-------

The next morning they woke me up and told me they were transferring Melissa to a private room. They said I'd have to let her hand go, so they could move her bed. I refused to let go and they moved her anyway.

"We need to bathe her and change her sheets. You'll have to turn her hand loose and leave the room," one nurse said.

"No I'm NOT gonna let go of her hand and I have seen her naked, so you can just bathe her with me here. If you need me to I'll close my eyes but I will NOT turn her hand loose," I told her.

"Okay, I won't fight you. You just help me get the sheets under her when I bathe her. I would appreciate it if you turned your head, or at least close your eyes, while I bathe her though," She told me.

I sat down with her hand in mine and closed my eyes. I knew when we got Melissa home, I'd bathe her and look her over good to see if she had any more injuries.

The nurse had her sponged off in just a few minutes.

"Danny help me get the sheet under her legs and then we'll roll her over just a bit so I can pull the sheet under her. I'll need you to roll her gently back the other way, so I can get the sheet pulled across the bed and tucked in. Be real careful with her, she has three broken ribs and they can be painful," The nurse told me.

I did as she told me and helped her get the sheets pulled over and Melissa rolled back in place.

I never let go of her hand and Melissa even squeezed me twice as we moved her and got the sheets in place.

I had just sat down in the chair next to the bed when the Doctor came in the room.

"How is she today Danny? I can see a lot of her swelling is gone and her bruises are not as dark. Has she responded to you today?" He asked me.

"Yes, I helped the nurse change her sheets and she squeezed my hand twice," I told him, as he opened her eyes and did the light thing with her eyes again, I saw her eyes follow the light and he grinned at me.

"Her eyes dilate and return both of them, that's a good sign. Her eyes followed the light to the side and that is another good sign."

"Melissa can you hear me? This is Doctor Sciotti. I need you to let me know if you can hear me," he said as he leaned in close to talk to her.

"Melissa Danny's here, he's hasn't let your hand go since you were taken to ICU. He wants you to let me know if you're alright and that you can hear me. Move your right hand, the one Danny's holding."

"Look Doc, her little finger's moving," I said and grinned.

"Wiggle your little finger Melissa. Now open and close your hand on Danny's hand," he told her softly.

"She did it Doc, she moved her finger. Melissa, open and close your hand, for the doctor," I said as I was about to burst open with happiness.

"She did it Danny. Melissa, you did very well, thank you. Now can you wiggle your toes on your right foot?" He asked and we watched but nothing happened.

"Melissa can you try to move the toes on your left foot? Show me you can Melissa. Danny wants you to move your toes or he'll tickle your foot," The doctor said and we both smiled.

"That was really great Melissa, but I need you to move your toes on your left foot now." He told her, after she wiggled her toes on her right foot.

Her toes on her left foot moved again.

"Melissa can you move your toes on your left foot again?" He asked, and glanced at me.

Her toes on her right foot moved now.

"That was great Melissa, I want you to move your toes a lot today, if you forget to move them, Danny will remind you, okay?" He said.

The Doctor and I were both shocked, when her lips moved and she said 'sure' in a whisper that we barely heard.

"Melissa do you feel this when I touch your left foot?" The doctor said, as he rubbed her right foot, 'sure' she said, barely above a whisper.

"Wiggle your toe on your left foot and show me."

She wiggled her right toes.

"Doctor..." I started to say something about her moving the wrong foot.

He held his hand out to stop me and I knew what he wanted.

"Melissa, if you get an itch you can tell Danny and he'll scratch you, OK?" The doctor told her with a smile.

She didn't respond.

"Melissa do you itch? Do I need to scratch you anywhere?" I asked, I was happy to hear her voice that was just above a whisper as before, but I was red faced as I looked at the Doctor when he almost ran out the door.

'Scratch my pussy Danny, it itches, ' she said.

"Melissa..."

"Melissa, can you hear me?"

She was out again and I wonder what the doctor will think about trying to get her to communicate now.

"Danny are you awake?" I heard Helen as she walked in.

"Yeah I was resting my head, Melissa's out of it again. She said a few words today, while the doctor was here, he heard her," I said as she put two paper bags of snacks and a Dairy Queen bag on the small bed table.

"Really what did she say, was she just mumbling words or did she respond to his questions?"

"She answered his questions."

"Wow that's great Danny, with one word answers or did she make a sentence."

"Both" I said, hoping this didn't go any further.

"Melissa, Helen is here, say hi to Helen" I squeezed her hand.

'Helen, ' Melissa said in barely a whisper.

"Oh My God Danny, she said my name. I'm so happy," Helen said real loud.

'Helen, ' Melissa said again.

"Oh Danny do Mom and Dad know yet?" She asked.

"No I fell asleep, when the doctor left."

"I'm gonna call and see if they've left to come over here yet," Helen jumped up grabbed the phone.

"I guess they've already left there's no answer" She said and lay the phone down on the hook.

'Helen, ' Melissa said again and we both laughed out loud. Melissa recognized her sister's voice now.

"Yes I'm here Melissa," Helen said, with her voice between a sob and a laugh.

'Scratch my pussy, ' Uh Oh. She said it again.

"What did she say Danny?" Helen looked at me, her eyes wide.

"Uh, well that was the sentence she spoke to the Doctor. He told her, that if she itched, I would scratch it for her. He was trying to get her to talk and did she ever" I kinda laughed, to see what Helen would do.

"She's just hallucinating is all Danny. She doesn't know what she's saying, I apologize for my sister," Helen tried to cover it up.

"I don't think so but you may be right. The Doctor told her that he wanted her to practice moving her toes and asked if she heard him she responded with a barely audible 'sure'.

"Then he was really pleased that she had spoken and he asked her if she felt him touch her foot and she said 'sure' again.

"Danny," Melissa called my name and I felt light headed as I looked at her.

"Yes Melissa, I'm here," I said, I started crying.

"Scratch my pussy, I itch down there," She said, I looked at Helen.

"Do it Danny, I'll hold her gown up and look the other way." She said.

"Danny..."

"Yes I'm here, Melissa, where does it itch?"

" ... my pussy itches."

"Where?"

"On top." She said, and Helen turned to smile at me. I was crying now and I couldn't help it.

"There Melissa?" I asked as I scratched through her thin hair. I felt the tube in her small pussy and looked at Helen.

"It's a catheter, so her bladder drains." She whispered in my ear

"Ohhh," I mouthed red faced. Heck I didn't know.

"Yes, now down the side," Melissa said. I looked at Helen and she was crying too now as her sister was coming back.

"Here?"

"Yes, now I want you in my pussy."

"Uh Melissa, Helen's here," I said.

"Hi Helen, Danny's scratching my pussy for me," She was talking almost normal now, just slower.

"Hi Melissa, you're very lucky to have a boy like Danny love you."

"Yeah I know. He makes my pussy feel so good."

"Melissa, we don't need to be talking about your your pussy do we?" Helen asked.

"It's OK, Danny knows I get a pussy itch and he scratches it for me, then he licks me too. Tell her it's alright Danny, you tell her."

"Uh Helen it's okay, she likes me to scratch her down there."

"My pussy,"

"Yes Melissa your pussy." I said it, I sure wasn't gonna let modesty keep her from talking now, not after what she's been through.

Helen looked at me, I smiled and shrugged my shoulders.

"You're OK, Danny Millen, you are absolutely okay in my book," Helen said.

"Mine too Helen," Melissa said.

"I'm so proud of you Missy. Can you open your eyes?" Helen asked.

"No light's too bright, they hurt." She said in nearly 100% her normal voice, she had very little slur now, where she had slurred her words earlier.

"If I turn the lights off, will you open your eyes for us?" Helen asked just as the Mayor and Mrs. Dean walked in the room. Helen ran to them and put her finger in front of her lips and told them to listen and watch.

"I'm going to turn the lights off Melissa, you can open your eyes," Helen said.

"OK," Melissa said and Mrs. Dean's knees gave way and Mayor Dean caught her and held her up as they both stood looking on with tears in their eyes and their mouths open.

"Open your eyes and tell me what you see Melissa," Helen said.

"I see light" She said.

"That's okay, it's been a few of days, just close your eyes and rest them now OK?"

"Yes, my pussy still itches though. Danny, can you scratch me again?"

"Melissa your Mom and Dad are here, will you say hi to them?"

"Hi Mom and Daddy, you did come see me. I am okay now. I have Danny here and the angels come too."

"Hi Baby, I'm so glad to hear your voice," Mrs. Dean walked to her side opposite me."

"Hi Missy, I see you still have this boy wrapped around your finger, I love you and I'm so happy to hear you call Daddy."

"Yes Daddy, Danny loves me and scratches my pussy for me," she said and I wished I could hide under the bed.

"That's great Melissa, I knew this boy cared about you when I first saw him at the house."

"I really like him Daddy and Mom does too and now Helen likes Danny."

"Yes she does, we all do. How do you feel, do you hurt anywhere Missy?" He asked.

"I don't hurt right now, but my pussy itches. Danny, please scratch my pussy for me, Okay?."

"Uh Melissa, your Mom, Dad and Helen are here."

"I know, but I really need you to scratch my pussy. Helen, you and Dad turn your heads. Mom can look, we talk about my pussy all the time, don't we Mom?"

"Yes Honey, Danny you scratch this girls pussy for her so it will stop itching." Mrs. Dean said and nodded at me.

"Thanks Mom he was afraid to touch me, with you and Dad in the room," She said and I started crying now. I knew she wasn't hallucinating. I looked at her Mom and she was crying too and Helen was holding her Dad and they were crying. We all knew she was talking normal, even if she was talking about her pussy.

I reached under the cover and scratched through her hair again, then down each side as she purred. I was careful of the tube, now that I knew what it was.

"How's that, Melissa?"

"That is good for now, but when Mom and Dad aren't looking, I want some more," she said and giggled that sweet little giggle.

I knew I was red faced and I looked from one to the other and tried to smile.

"Thank you Danny, there's no way any of us could have handled that as well as you did," Mayor Dean said.

"He's good Daddy, he's really good," Melissa said.

"He sure is Missy, he's the best," He answered her.

"Daddy, Danny and Patch and I are gonna to sand and prime our pickup soon aren't we Danny?"

"We sure are just as soon as you're well enough to work on it. Patch and I aren't gonna let you get out of working on our pickup its yours and mine, so you have to help."

"I will Danny, you'll see."

"I'll be there too Danny, just as soon as this little shop helper get well enough, we'll all get to work on it," Patch said and Melissa yelled his name.

"Patch you came to see me, sorry I got hurt," She said as he walked in beside her bed.

"Hi Melissa, I'm happy to see you talking again, you had us all scared."

"Patch I'm so happy you're here. Mom did you meet Patch. Helen I want you to apologize to Patch, you hear me, he's a good man," Melissa was talking now, like the old Melissa.

"Patch I'm so sorry for acting like a fool in your shop the other day, but I want to take credit for Melissa and Danny meeting. If it hadn't been for me and my foul mouth they may have never gotten the courage to talk to one another." Helen said as she walked over to shake Patch's hand, but changed her mind and hugged him.

"I agree Helen, and we're all glad these two got together now. So don't let them hound you for being mad at your car, we all do that once in a while," Patch said.

"Is my Doctor here Mom?" Melissa asked.

"No Hon, I'm not sure if he is at the hospital right now, I can check and see."

"I need to talk to him." Melissa said and we all smiled and looked at her.

"I'll go ask them to page him and tell him that Melissa wants to see him," Helen said.

"He's cute," She added.

We heard the page for Dr. Sciotti and Helen came back almost as soon as the page went over the intercom.

"The nurse told me he was still in the hospital, and he was definitely single." Helen said out of breath.

"Helen?"

"Yes Missy?"

"I'll tell him you like him, we need a doctor in the family," Melissa said and tried to laugh but she stopped when her ribs hurt.

"Missy, you get your butt well and let me worry about the Doctor or you'll need another one," Helen laughed.

"I've got Danny now and he won't let you hurt me."

"Oh My God she really is back," Helen said.

"Melissa we're so proud of you" Mrs. Dean said

"It wasn't me Mom. It was Danny and the angels," She said.

"Honey, we know Danny was here with you all the time, but where were the angels?" Mrs. Dean asked.

"They were all around Mom, they were keeping Danny company, while he watched over me. They were sitting on my bed and in the chairs," Melissa said.

"They must have come after we all left Melissa, I'm sorry we missed them."

"They'll be back Mom, they'll be back and help me see now," Melissa said and we all looked around at each other.

"Then I'm sure we'll see them soon Melissa, if we miss them be sure to thank them for us," Mrs. Dean looked at me and then at Melissa and smiled.

"I will Mom, they think Danny is really nice and they approve of him as my boyfriend too. God does too Mom."

I almost choked as I tried to swallow, it felt like my tongue was in my throat.

"I saw Him too Melissa, the day we came here I talked to Him, He told me you were gonna be alright," I told her.

"I know Danny, He told me about you wanting Him to take you and let me live, He thought that was very special of you and He decided He needed to let me stay with you for a long, long time," Melissa said as I cried until I couldn't see through my eyes.

"That's when He sent the angels to help you watch over me until I get well," she said. She was telling us this, as if it were an everyday occurrence.

"I'm glad He let you stay with us Melissa. I told Him that your family needed you too, not just me," I wiped my eyes on the sheet and looked around the room.

Dr. Sciotti was here now and I even saw tears in his yes.

"Melissa did you want to see me?" Dr. Sciotti asked.

"Hi Doc I didn't see you come in, sorry that was a bad joke wasn't it."

"You are better I see," He laughed and she moaned at his come back.

"Yes now tell me why all I can see is a bright light when I open my eyes," She asked.

"Well Melissa you had a lot of damage to your head when you hit the ground and there was a lot of swelling that caused some pressure on your optic nerves. Your left side had the most swelling and I'm hoping that your right eye will be strong enough to see soon."

"Will my left eye ever see like before?" She asked calmly.

"I'm just not sure yet Melissa, let me look in your eyes and you tell me if you can see anything when I cover your left eye," He told her as he moved to her side.

"Hold me tight Danny, I need all the help I can get. I want to see your sexy butt again," She giggled and all the family laughed.

"Can you open your eyes by yourself now Melissa? If you can, open them as far as you can without it hurting too bad," He told her.

"I can open them about halfway and that's all," She said.

"Here let me hold my hand over your left eye and you tell me if you can see Danny there beside you," He covered her eye and she looked my way for a long time with her right eye. I squeezed her hand tight and she squeezed mine.

"I see him Doc. I see his handsome face, he's kinda blurry but I can see him," She smiled and giggled her little girl giggle.

"Close your eyes and look again, try to make your eye focus on Danny's face." He told her.

"I think if Danny would lean real close I could see him," she smiled.

I squeezed her hand and leaned my face close to hers.

"Closer Danny, I need you to come closer," She said, and smiled.

"Kiss me Danny then I'll be able to see you better, hold my hand tight and kiss my lips Danny, I need you. Don't worry that my family and Patch sees you, just kiss me," She said in a soft voice.

I kissed her, I didn't care who was in the room, I kissed her on the lips and we kissed like we did right before we kissed each between our legs.

"I bet I can see now Doc, try me," She smiled.

"I'll cover your left eye and you tell me what you see."

"I see Danny, he still has on his blue shop coveralls, I see Mom and Dad. Dad's wearing his gray sport coat that I like. Mom's wearing her blue dress I like on her that Helen and I got her for her birthday. I see my sister Helen. Doc you really need to take a good look at my sister, she's sexy as all get out and she has a really hot body under that light blue suit she has on.

I see Patch there in his white shirt and his new dress pants and wow, here are Mr. and Mrs. Millen that just walked in. Come on in I'm seeing for the first time since I got hurt," Melissa was ecstatic.

Mom and Dad came over and hugged me, I saw the tears in their eyes.

"Mom, Dad Melissa can see," I cried.

"Melissa, let me cover your right eye and you tell me what you see," Dr. Sciotti said and covered her eye.

"I can see shapes where before I saw faces, I can see them move but I can't tell who is who," She said disappointed.

"Don't you worry about that Melissa, it may take a while for that eye to come back, but we got one good eye now and we can be happy for that," He told her.

"I know Doc, the angels told me that my sight would come back. I'm not worried. I was just so happy, I just thought both eyes would both come back at the same time," She smiled, and looked around the room.

"What do you think, Dr. Sciotti?" Mayor Dean asked as they all huddled near the door.

"I think, if there is such a thing as miracles, you better get ready to see your daughter walk out of here in a week or so," he smiled.

"Thank you Dr. Sciotti, I know we've not been very good patients here, but we've been so worried about Melissa," Mrs. Dean said as she touched his arm.

"I understand and Danny is the talk of the hospital, for the way he's stayed by her side every minute."

"He is very special to our daughter, and to us, and these two nice people are his parents, Daniel and Bess Millen." Mayor Dean said, as I watched them.

"You have a remarkable young man for a son. He and I had a good conversation with Melissa, this afternoon, and she shocked us both, but we were just glad she was talking."

"Thank you for coming back to see Melissa, Doctor, she was asking for you, I really think she wanted to see, but didn't know what to do." Mrs. Dean said.

"You just call me any time. If I'm not in the hospital, the nurses can reach my answering service and they will contact me, I know that seems like a big run around, but it happens quickly."

"Thank you Doctor," Mayor Dean said.

I saw Melissa looking at me and she smiled that sweet smile with her freckles kinda crinkled up on her nose.

"Doc?" Melissa said.

"Yes, Melissa?" He turned to the room now.

"Be sure to look my sister over good in the light. I've seen her naked, she really looks good," Melissa giggled.

"Missy, I am gonna, I am gonna. I don't know what I am gonna do with you," Helen laughed and her face was red now as she looked from her parents to Dr. Sciotti.

"Helen will you walk down with me I have to go. I have a meeting, with some friends, but I'd like to walk down with you, if you would. I do agree with Melissa's assessment of you, by the way. Mayor Dean, Mrs. Dean; Mr. and Mrs. Millen, Patch. I'll see all of you tomorrow I hope," I watched as he took Helen's elbow and led her away.

"He's taking Helen down with him Melissa," I smiled and whispered.

"I knew he would when he got a good look at her," She squeezed my hand and giggled.

Three days later we loaded Melissa into their family car and took her home. I was still holding her hand until we got into her car.

I even led her to the car because she was wearing very dark glasses and the light still hurt her eyes.

I hadn't even been to school since she was hurt. I didn't even know what day it was, until I picked up a newspaper on the seat. It was Friday.

Melissa had missed a week of school and I had too, but I wasn't worried, we were both honor students and I knew we could catch back up soon.

"I didn't realize we had been in there a week, but today's Friday," I said and Mayor Dean looked back at me.

"Danny you and Melissa were in there three weeks, not one." I picked up the paper again and looked at the date. I thought at first it had only been two or three days.

We got to Melissa's house at 2:30 in the afternoon and the whole street was lined with junior and senior high kids, cheering as we drove by.

My heart was about to burst with pride and love for her as we looked out the window and she waved with her one good hand.

The school band was there too and they played as Mayor Dean drove slowly down the street and into their driveway.

I was going to get out and run around to help Melissa out, but she was having none of that. She got out with me and we stood and waved to the crowd.

I led her up onto the porch and the cheers really got loud as they saw her able to walk up the steps, with only my hand holding hers lightly.

I was glad that Mom had brought me some clean clothes and I had showered before we left, that was the only time we were not holding hands for the whole three weeks, yes I even used the bed pan.

Patch had left my Studebaker truck at our house and on Monday I drove by to see Melissa and we spent a while together before I went to school.

When school was out I knew something had to be done. I stopped back by to see Melissa and we talked, then we talked to her Mom.

The next morning I picked Melissa up and we used a wheelchair to get her around in school. Her friends Dotty, Claire and Julie were there to help her as soon as I pulled up with her at school.

She and I both felt better just knowing we were that close together.

That afternoon, we pulled into Patch's Garage and unloaded the wheelchair, but Melissa didn't use it, she walked into the shop with a noticeable limp as Patch came out and they hugged right there.

"Welcome home Melissa, you've been missed," Patch said as he handed her the puppy that she had chased in to the street the day she was hit by the car.

"Patch, Melissa just wanted to come by and see you. I'm gonna take her home and get her settled and I'll be right back." I told him.

"Danny you go take care of our little girl here, then you can worry about coming back. This job will be here when you get her well and able to come back too," He told me as he helped Melissa to the truck on my side.

"Bye Patch and thanks for letting Danny be with me I really need him more than ever now," She stretched up to kiss his cheek.

"You two be careful, I'll keep this puppy here for you until you're able to take care of him," He told her.

Two weeks later, I took Melissa to the doctor and got the cast off her left arm. We went to see Dr. Sciotti and he checked her eyes and told her she was really improving. Her sight was still weak in her left eye, but her right was even stronger now.

"Danny, have you noticed that my breasts have really grown, since I got out of the hospital?" Melissa asked as we were driving back to Riverton.

"I did but I was trying to not look too much. I didn't want you to think I was just interested in your body," I smiled.

"I think you need to be more interested in my body, we've been ignoring my titties too long now," She smiled and pulled her shirt up over her proud titties that really had grown in the past few weeks.

"Wow you really do have some big ones now Melissa, what did you do?" I asked as I looked at her breasts that were twice as big as before.

"Mom called the gynecologist about me and he said that more than likely when my body was in such a trauma my hormones must have taken a vacation, then when I got well, they came back with a double dose to catch up, I really like them don't you," She smiled and took my arm to put over her shoulder.

"I love them, but I love you more and I didn't want to hurt you by holding you too tight." I said.

"I want you to hold me Danny. I want to make love to you," Melissa told me and smiled.

"I want to make love to you too Melissa, but I'm not sure you're strong enough yet to go through all we did before."

"You let me worry about that, I want to suck your dick while you're sucking my pussy. It's been too long already. Mom said that the pill was probably working good by now, I'm on my second month."

"Melissa you know I want you, just tell me you're absolutely sure about this."

"I am absolutely sure Danny. I want your dick in my pussy."

"Where?"

"Right here in our pickup."

"Melissa are you sure about that?"

"Yes I want us to do it the first time in our '37 Studebaker pickup."

"Out by the river?"

"Yes out by the river and I want you to fuck me hard and I want you to let me do anything to you that I want to."

"You can have me Melissa, for the rest of our lives if you want me."

"I want you at least that long Danny, will you love me that long?"

"At least that long"

"Pull your pants down, I want to suck your dick on the way to the river," Melissa said, as she started unbuttoning her shirt.

"Play with my nipples Danny, then finger my pussy while I suck you."

By the time we made it out to the river we were both naked, Melissa was all over me. I parked the truck in the same place as before and we went at each other like wild animals.

"Grab the blankets off the seat Danny, we're gonna get in the back and I'm gonna lie on top of you," she smiled as she slid across the seat with me.

I spread both blankets in the bed of the old pickup and lay back to let her on me. She turned so she could suck me, and let me at her puffy pussy.

"I missed this Danny and I dreamed so many times we were just like this. I need you, please kiss my pussy and lick me."

"I've missed you too Melissa and I'm so glad you're getting well. I want to love you and kiss you and hold you like this every day I live."

"Make my pussy cum Danny, make it happy," Melissa told me just before she took my dick in her mouth and started sucking me.

I looked up at her sexy butt and her little pussy and I knew I'd never get enough of looking at her and making love to her.

I shoved my face into her, we were both moaning and humming, as we made up for lost time.

"I've got to have you Danny, I can't wait," she said as she pushed herself up and turned to sit astraddle me.

"You hold your dick and let me get it in me I want to fuck you," she said as she giggled, I knew she was back now, she was even more wild than ever before as I burst through her hymen and she rode down on me time and time again, as we reached our climaxes together and we fell into each others arms and slept until dark.

Melissa woke first and rode her pussy on me until I was hard again, then she took me one more time before we dressed and went home.

Epilogue

I graduated in 1968, and went to the Junior College in Martinsville for two years, driving back and forth each day, yes in my trusty '37 Studebaker. I got my two year degree in Auto Repair and body shop.

Patch and I built a new metal building where we tore the old wooden one down, beside the garage and opened a new repair shop with all the new electronic testing equipment.

We sold tires and batteries and soon opened a small parts store that grew in leaps and bounds as we were the only one even close to Riverton.

The body shop was covered up the first month and we hired two helpers to keep up with that.

Melissa finished high school and we were married at Church, with all our friends and family there.

Helen was there with Dr. Sciotti, they're living together in Martinsville, talking marriage now. They're happy together and always touching and laughing. He started a private practice and was on the board of the hospital. Helen ran his office for him and kept all his schedules on time and hired and managed his staff.

Mom and Dad still live in the same house, Melissa and I go by there every day after work to see them. Melissa is pregnant, we're expecting a baby boy in July maybe on my birthday, she said.

Mayor Dean is still Mayor, we see him almost daily as he stops in to see Melissa, who keeps the books for Patch and me full time now that she's out of school.

Mrs. Dean does a lot of volunteering at the hospital in Martinsville and at the churches here in Riverton as well as at the high school.

Melissa and I spend a lot of time with them on weekends, when they're both at home.

Some Sundays, Melissa calls her Mom and Dad and my Mom and Dad and we all go on a picnic, out by the river. She loves to go to the very place we made love for the first time, she even told our parents that this is where we did it first.

She also told them that we come back her often to re-enact the event and she thinks this is where she got pregnant.

Melissa's left eye has now completely healed and even though she wears glasses, her sight is as good as ever.

Sometimes she still has problems with her left arm, when she reaches up to get something out of the cabinet at home, but she never complains.

Oh the puppy, he will not leave Melissa's side, ever.

We've built a new home this year, on some property out close to the levee.

Melissa tells me all the time that she still sees the angels, she says they come and sing to her and the baby in her belly, at night.
