Infectious Vacation

Reflections of Vacations Past

Howard was still reflecting on travel plans gone wrong, even the honeymoon, their very first trip together.

The wedding itself was beautiful and according to plan, the wedding of their dreams, right down to the reception, the limousine ride.

"Howard honey, what's with the smile?, should I call back and confirm?"

"Just remembering our limousine ride, do you remember?"

"Of course I do, we were just drunk enough to not care if the driver witnessed but not drunk to the point of a hangover, or memory loss" Kathy is now smiling too.

"I married a handsome man, after the I dos and permission to kiss him, I found I couldn't stop kissing, we waved bye to every one, drank some of the champagne included in the rental and returned to each others lips" Kathy walks around the island to the stool and kisses her husband.

"Remember the garter to throw to the bachelor's and how I was under your dress to to pull it down with my teeth but started by kissing some where else and repeated that in the limo?" Howard grinning like he is twenty again instead of 65.

"Why Howard" she said in a playful manner " that isn't something you forget, he had kissed her through her panties and began to pull them off in the ride to the airport, then went from kissing her cliturios to lick it, then sucking it, she was enjoying it to much to worry about the driver, in fact she had never anticipated as both of them were virgins just how much she would want to end that this quickly and found nature leading her hands, to find his crouch to feel him getting hard as she was wet, he un zipped his pants and pulled them down, she caressed his p***s, slow at first, then gripped it a little harder he was smooth and hard, they didn't want to wait, he slid in, both let out a sound of enjoyment and cusmating of the marriage began, with traffic in there favor 2 blocks away from the airport and still on time to get their flight they climaxed together, neither could stop smiling as they redressed what little they had removed, with time to spare of one more drink of champagne each.

The honeymoon had started , they got to their gate, took their first class seat and held hands, but landing in Hawaii was where things going right turned to things going wrong.

The had just their carry on, as some how the other luggage was now lost, ok stressful yes but honeymoon, who wants to wear clothes when you really want to wear each other and a smile.

They left their information and the airport would contact them in the main time they got a cab to the resort, get to the resort to find the honey moon suite booked and paid for wasn't ready yet, ok tired stressed but they gave us credit for the gift shop, so we shopped while waiting for our room.

That was how many trips ended up starting well then one thing after another, happened but most times it ended up balanced were they still manged to make the most of it.

Both had good jobs although Kathy never ended up a fashion designer she did sew the designer Jean's, both worked on assembly lines, over the years they joked about demin and steel. The rivets and grommets on the jeans, how they really are a fitting match for each other.

Howard often felt bad, he wasn't so easy going, he liked it more when plans worked, he has wanted Kathy happy since, thinking back ot must have been Sunday school just before confirmation, when puberty showed up for both of them, she looked better in dresses and he had his facial hair and had the urges to notice, his best friend's more womanly figure, not such a tom boy anymore playing in the sand pit together.

He started to carry her books at school, make little gifts to give her, without damaging the friendship as he tested her reaction to the change of his behavior, he mainly got smiles and that little hair thing she didn't think he noticed of brushing her hair back with her hand she it was behind her ear, as she smiled and eyes twinkled, or hand touching would linger while accepting the gift including a eye lock.

Three years he kept doing little things, neither one allowed to begin courting until 16 years old, he found the courage on her sweet sixteenth birthday to ask if he could court her, she said yes.

At 16 Howard got a part time job at the steel mill, third generation to work there, he also attended college, she attended the same local college but for fashion design, both graduated with honors, Kathy had also got a part time job, assistant to a seamstress with mending tears, alterations and some times what she really enjoyed was the custom pieces.

With both working part time and 4 years of college they had enough for a nice simple wedding and focus on the luxury of a honeymoon, when they had looked around at venues, they found one they loved and it had a amazing deal, wedding in outside garden, small beautiful locations a little path from the larger garden ideal for the wedding photos, reception inside the banquet center and buffet style food service, complete with a chef who loved creating work of art wedding cakes, between their families, friends and co workers it was perfect for 150 guests and the best price, it felt like a steal.

Even better was the deal they got on the honeymoon and limousine, that part worked! out so perfectly that they found they may have enough for a small down payment on a house, in fact the only thing they didn't have was a engagement ring, the funny fact was he actually never purposed.

Wondering if that lead to the vacation curse.
