My goal was to be up and on the road by like seven am. But, between oversleeping myself and then Gabby not being ready, it was almost 12 before we got on the road. I wanted to be pissed but I really couldn’t be, she was nervous about going and had flipped Wednesday and said she was staying home, but then Damien called Friday and that was it. We’d gotten lunch and she’d packed sandwiches which took a chuck of the AM hours too. At this rate we would be arriving about midnight or later. She took the first couple of hours of driving, saying I would be better tonight because I knew where we were going.

She has chosen a long cotton skirt, odd for the winter weather but it was covering her legs well, even walking. She also had a plain t-shirt on with one of her own button up shirts that was red. I didn’t see how she was going to remain warm but once inside the car it was fine, the heat was on and it was toasty.

The first four hours was just general chatting about the individuals that would be there, she wasn’t familiar with them all and it would allow her some knowledge about them before meeting them. Of course, most had no idea who she was. She was excited that Imani Coppola would be there, another female, and after hearing a dozen Weird Al songs she was convinced he’d be good to meet. She had me play several things from them so she was at least familiar with what they’ve done.

We stopped for gas and got snacks and then shifted to more personal matters. We talked about houses, I’d gotten several listening online and printed them out and we were just reviewing them as we drove to kill time. She didn’t want a super huge house, space was needed but not excessive space that wouldn’t be used. She also shot down the houses with more than four bedrooms, saying we didn’t need that many extra rooms. Not that I was any less picky because I wanted a garage and the land, which meant finding a place we both liked for different reasons. I did nap as well because I needed too.

She found a restaurant for us for dinner, some kind of mextex place that actually had really good food that was perfect. It had good flavor, cooked well, and the tea was perfect. Once we left she took a nap, waking up about eight.

“How much longer?”

“Four or five more hours.”

“Remind me again why we didn’t fly?”

“Driving gives you a car to drive while we’re here. So you can go places and not sit around bored.”

“Why is Texas so flat? There’s nothing for miles.”

“Trademark of Texas, but we do hit some mountains on I-1o just before El Paso. I promise, but on this road it’s mostly flat and nothing.”

“Has another car even passed?”

“Three, headed the other direction and two semi’s flew past me like I wasn’t moving.”

She checked her phone and replied to a text from Sierra, no doubt asking where we were too. She then spent a long time reading something. I just listened to the CD that was playing, a mix tape one because radio stations seemed few and very far between. I was watching the road glancing occasionally at the rear view mirror, I didn’t quite pay attention to what she was doing until I saw her sock covered foot on the dash, then I glanced over.

“What are you doing?”

“Getting comfortable.”

I just smiled, the socks were white and she wiggled her toes, I giggled. But then my eyes followed the hem of the skirt as it slid down her legs, slowly making its way over her knees and then down her creamy thighs, what drew my attention away was the rumble strips on the side of the road telling me I was drifting off the road.

She giggled. “Careful, although if you run off the road there is another road right there.”

“It’s your fault!”

I put my eyes off her thighs and on the road but several minutes later that foot was in my lap and I glanced over, clearly noticing the blue panties, visible because the dress was pulled up very high. Again those rumble strips put my eyes back to the road. Yet, her foot remained, eventually being joined by the other one. I laid my free hand on her ankle. I knew she was moving because her feet were but it was several minutes later that I felt something silky against my hand and I barely glanced down to see the blue silky fabric against my hand.

I swallowed quite hard at that and I didn’t look her way, if her panties were against my hand then I didn’t need to see why.

“Mind removing those? I can’t move my right leg.”

“Shouldn’t you have them on?”

“I don’t have to.”

I slid them over her feet and laid them down in the seat, sure enough one foot moved but to the dash and I really wanted to look then, but I didn’t. I felt the car shift as she moved, her foot slid a little farther in my lap, how the fuck was she sitting?! I hazard a glance and found she’s turned in the seat, sideways.

“What are you doing?”

She didn’t answer me but the view I’d gotten was fucking perfect, but I could not look that way! I had to watch the road. It was very hard to maintain my focus on the road when I could hear little noises, clearly she wasn’t just sitting there. I hazard another glance, found her hands under her shirt, clearly playing with the nipples, mother fuck! Her head was back against the window so she never even saw me glance over.

No way she was planning sex now, not when we had four hours left! Yet I could still hear her, I kept my eyes focused forward. Her foot moved from my lap and I could tell it went behind the seat and with her foot on the dash I didn’t need to look to know how she was sitting or what I’d see.

“You sure are being good.”

“Watching the road.”

“Might be good, wouldn’t want to wreck not that you’ll hit much.”

“Still.”

Yet, I couldn’t help myself but glance over and while one hand was still under the shirt, her right hand was sliding down her thigh and then I could see her hand moved down the center, palm rubbing before the middle finger slipped between and moved up. Again those fucking rumble strips gave me away. I went back to the road, despite the fact blood was flowing south, I couldn’t think of that right now. I had to watch the road.

I couldn’t deny the little heavier breathing, little moans and sighs were really distracting, even with the radio on I could hear her. The next hazardous glance showed she was now inserting fingers and that was more than I expected, but her shifting hips said the position wasn’t comfortable. I saw the semi truck coming and she seemed confused when I reached over and yanked the skirt down, but giggled when the truck went by.

“He couldn’t see me.”

I glanced over. “I wasn’t taking chances, I don’t need him to wreck.”

Her hand came out from under the skirt and right to my lips, the same scent and I really couldn’t stop from licking them, fuck why I was driving?

“The seats in this car suck for this.”

“Sorry, maybe if you’d waited until we were behind a closed door.”

She moved and was closer, fuck she was getting into the back seat! It really was easy for her to get into the back seat and I saw her lay down, that was mean… but then her shirt was laid in the center, both of them, followed by the bra and finally the skirt.

“You know if we get pulled over we’re going to jail...right?”

“As long as you stay on the road and don’t weave or do anything stupid we shouldn’t be pulled over.”

“And if they see you?”

She was suddenly by my ear. “Tinted windows, unless they’re coming toward you they won’t see me.”

But her hand moved the rearview mirror down and she kissed my neck. “But you will.”

Sure enough, once she’d leaned back I could see her, quite well because she’d evidently planned this, small portable lights were on giving just enough light to see her, without showing much.

“Do you need to adjust?”

“No..but you clearly planned this.”

“Not really…”

I went back to the road, I’d just not look in the rearview mirror, I could see cars coming from the side mirrors, it would be fine. I could hear her, but I didn’t have to watch. Yet, my eyes wondered anyway, the perfect view because in the back seat she could use the seats to put her feet on, I could feel one barely on mine, perfect view of her fingers dipping in and pulling out, some set pace she had and then the hands on the breasts, fuck those rumble strips. I adjusted myself in the seat, tried to make my own jeans more comfortable without undoing them, I was driving I could not be jacking off too.

I did keep my eyes on the road but I heard the very soft hum and that drew my eyes to the mirror, where I blinked. She’s evidently at some point purchased another sex toy, this one was leopard print, looked smooth, and didn’t seem to be that big. Yet, watching as she pushed it into her and pulled it back, the way she looked.

“I thought you didn’t use those.”

She didn’t answer but the smile said she’d heard the question, clearly she had bought it for this purpose. I tried my best to not look at the mirror as the exits appeared slowly, skipping five to ten miles at a time. Yet, I heard my name and the erection wasn’t going away. I’d tried to will it away, I’d tried to not hear her or see. But, I’d never seen her do this, in the year that she’d been with me nearly all the time the only times she really touched herself like this was when she was giving a blowjob and usually I couldn’t focus on what she was doing.

This was all her, the way her hands alternated breasts and I’d even seen her own tongue flick over the nipple a few times, the way her hands had sunk into her and pulled back, clearly glistening even in the low light. The little toy she was currently sinking into herself was also glistening and I could tell she was really wet. Yet, what was too much was her hand moving down to rub the clit. We were approaching Pecos Texas, and it was pitch black outside, only the headlights cast any kind of light. I couldn’t drive anymore.

I yanked the car over, causing her to gasp and cuss a bit, she really hadn’t expected me to pull over. The car skidded on the dirt but finally stopped and I think I put it in park before turning it off and getting out. I went around to the passenger side, not wanting to be on the side where some potential vehicle could come flying by, she had moved from the center, clearly expecting me to get in but I motioned for her to get out of the car. Which she did, but she gasped when I turned her against the car, pressing her against the car, letting the erection press into her ass.

“You were being extremely bad there, knowing I was driving.”

“You didn’t have to look or watch.”

My hand landed rather hard on her right cheek. “You knew I would.”

Her hips pushed back and who the hell was I to be stupid here? It didn’t take long to get the pants and underwear down and slightly moving her back was perfect. She really was wet and that was perfect, let me slide in easily.

“Fuck...so much better.”

Her head laid against the car, and I moved a hand around to do a slight pinch. The area was dark and quiet, perfect for us. She didn’t have to be so quiet here, not that she was in the car. I moved from easy to pretty fast, but her yelp wasn’t me.

“What is it?”

“Rock under my foot. Why did you stop?!”

I pulled back, which reminded me acutely that it was cold outside and I turned her around, lifted her legs up, letting me position her perfectly and keep her bare feet off the ground, it was nice to have her so close, let me get to those nipples better, let her hands tangle in my hair and I could hear the moans a lot better when there inches from my ears.

Yet the problem with outside, while very hot it was very cold. Her hands were cold against my back and mine were to her which in strategic places they were more arousing. But I did stop, disappointing her because I was sure she was pretty close.

“So mean.”

I got in the car and she promptly followed, closing the door and settling down in my lap. Just our luck that as soon as she was inside the semi went zooming by, but I wasn’t worried as she lowered herself down.

“So much better.”

“What? Your little toy wasn’t working well?”

She kissed me. “Was only used to warm me up for you.”

Both hands landed on her ass. “Intentional.”

Her lips were slightly cold but she smiled against me. “You think me asking would have gotten me this? Doubtful.”

She had a point there and she began to rise and fall at a rapid pace, I helped when I could, it really wasn’t long after that we were both coming in the backseat. It really was a little bit better and more intense.

“You know we’re now an hour later than normal.”

She kissed my neck. “I don’t care, it was worth it.”

I moved her back and kissed her. “You owe me a good show. Specifically one that I can watch without the need to drive.”

Her lips connected to mine. “Mmm, pick a day this week. I’m sure you’ll find time.”

“Not if we don’t get there.”

She giggled. “Fine, make me move.”

I kissed her again and she got something from the back to just clean a bit and then moved out of my lap.

“You were driving. Easier for you to get dressed.”

She was right, I just needed to pull up my pants and underwear which took a few moments and then I got out to adjust, before getting back in the driver’s seat. I went ahead and headed out while she got dressed in the back. When she climbed back up into the front seat she had on the same shirts but a pair of pants.

“No dress?”

She giggled. “I only wore it for that one purpose. Too cold for this weather normally.”

“You planned everything!”

She just smiled at me. “Don’t run off the road.”

“Ha ha.”

We got back on the road, another several hours of driving. It was just a long drive but when we did finally arrive Taylor was up waiting for us.

“Damn it took you long enough, we expected you much sooner.”

“We got started later than I planned and some things came up.”

Gabriella just smiled at me and Taylor nodded. “Hopefully you were safe in those things that came up. Most everyone is in bed, but Weird Al and I are up.”

We got our bags first and headed inside, it was cold here for Texas. We went inside and I greeted Al and we exchanged pleasantries and then he saw her.

“You must be Gabriella.”

She smiled. “I am, Weird Al Yankovic right?”

“Ah! They informed you of who I am! Not fair.”

“Actually I looked you up. I kind of wanted to know something about the people here this week. I am Gabrielle but most call me Gabby or Gabs.”

“Most call me weird.”

She smiled again and it felt a little odd.

“How was the drive down?” he asked.

“It was..interesting.” I said.

“It was perfect, he says interesting I say perfect. Although I think my butt is sore was sitting so long.”

I glanced back at her, pretty sure it wasn’t the sitting, but I didn’t say anything. Taylor just glared at me and Al, well he smiled.

“I understand. So, we were just waiting on you two. I’m crashing.”

“You didn’t have to wait but thank you, get some sleep.”

He disappeared down a hallway to the right and Taylor lead us to a room on the left. Our room was the biggest one and had a private bathroom which she loved because the tub was huge. Taylor didn’t hang around long before he was going to bed as well.

“So, any idea who is here?”

“Al is obviously, Sean Tillman will be here Monday and Al leaves Tuesday, then the others should be around. We invited 12 total, Carrick and Austin will be today. Most will be actually.”

“Okay, I’ll unpack us tomorrow. You need sleep.”

“I need a shower.”

She smiled. “That can be arranged.”

“You cannot be serious.”

“I’m referring to just a shower buttercup.”

We did take a shower and she loved the multi function of the shower head because it was close to the house but they had awesome water pressure. She however did lock the bedroom door, which I didn’t find weird considering she really hadn’t met anyone here but the few she knew well. She hopped onto the bed because it was tall.

“You want to actually admit the whole sex in the car was intended and planned?”

She looked at me. “Now why would I do that?”

“Come on, you had to buy the little vibrating dildo thing. I know I didn’t.”

“Actually, I didn’t buy it. Heather gave it to me as a wedding present for the times when you are on the road and just not home.”

“I am sure she knows you don’t use them.”

“I told her that, she said I had to keep it. When I finally agreed to go I considered it. Really, sex wasn’t the intention. It really was just me.”

Yet she smiled and that little seductive glance. I pulled her to me quickly and kissed her.

“I think your idea was awesome but really, the next time you want to warm up for me, make it so I can watch and not worry about wrecking or those damn stripes on the road!”

She kissed me, got a little closer. “Like I said…pick a day this week. I’m sure that while you will be busy and I won’t interfere, least not too much, that you’ll have some time. If not, then when we get home.”

“How about we just plan for home, ‘cause I’d love to see that on the bed at home when no one can interrupt us.”

Her hand moved down my side. “Are you sure you wanna wait that long?”

I kissed her. “I’m positive.”

I flipped the lamp off and neither of us were awake much longer, it was a long day and lots of driving, god help me on the ride home if she opted to repeat today!
