Atlantea

I remember thinking, at the time, that my life could not get any more bizarre, or at least unpredictable, than this moment. Boy, did I turn out to be wrong.

Phoebe, who was, and still is, my best friend in the whole world, had the entirety of my cock down her throat, her lips touching the skin around the base. This was no mean feat, given its significantly above-average length and girth. Her hands were gripping my butt cheeks for leverage, and she had kept the tip of my cock lodged far down her esophagus for about thirty seconds before slowly withdrawing. My painfully erect penis sprang up as it finally escaped her lips. I immediately began to worry that she was getting tired and about to stop, and was relieved when it became clear that she simply wanted to clarify a point of order.

“I forgot to tell you, I can handle it just fine if you can cum straight down my throat, but I’d prefer if you go in my mouth instead the first time,” she said neutrally. “I’m curious about the taste. Also, can you tap my head to let me know when you’re ready?”

I nodded mutely and she impaled her face again. Within two seconds, the tip of my penis was all the way down her throat once more. My mind reeled and goosebumps covered my flesh. Her soft mouth and throat felt better than words can adequately express. I put my hands on the back of her head, where her sandy-colored hair was cut to crew-cut length, and held lightly, although I hardly needed to as she was keeping a firm grip on my backside. After a minute she began to move her head back and forth, bringing the tip all the way into her mouth at one extreme, and mercilessly pushing her head as far forward as possible, at the other. As she did so, her long tongue flicked across the bottom of my shaft, or, when it was nearby, the head of my cock. It took all my concentration to hold off cumming. I wanted to enjoy this sensation for as long as possible, unsure if it would ever happen again.

A few minutes later I tapped her head, and she pulled back so that I would be able to cum directly inside her mouth. Her lips were sealed immediately past the head of my dick. She struggled with my bucking penis but managed to time her swallowing, and while a small amount of sperm leaked from her nose, the rest she kept down, without any dribbling out of her mouth. She allowed the last few ejaculations sit on her tongue and looked up as she tasted.

“Hm,” she said, “Decent… tastes better than Joey’s but maybe a little more, uh, astringent than Carlos’ or Ruben’s?”

My curiosity got the better of me. “How did you learn to do that? I think I can say I may never have as good of a blow job for the rest of my life.”

“Well, if you want more just ask,” Phoebe said flatly. “It’s all the same to me either way; but if you ask me, I don’t think only one’s gonna get your mind off Meg.”

She was referring to my girlfriend of many years, who had broken up with me in dramatic fashion. It had been like a scene from a movie: I came home earlier than expected, only to find her in bed with another man. They were being so loud that they did not hear the front door closing, and even when I opened our bedroom door they failed to notice. Meg was in the middle of an intense orgasm, and her partner did not seem far behind her, based on his raspy breathing. He was a short, stocky, muscular fellow and seemed to be giving her a much better time that I had, at least in recent memory.

Sadly, I was not even that upset about this discovery, although Meg and I went through the motions of having a big confrontation. I shouted at both of them, and her partner scurried out, clutching his clothes in front of his nakedness. He was shorter than either of us, but he did also look like he could handle himself in a fight. Although I’m over six feet tall and work out frequently, I don’t think he was intimidated by me; rather, he was simply embarrassed. Meg yelled at me, too. The words did not matter; I do not recall what either of us actually said. In hindsight, I am confident I would have ultimately forgiven her, had our relationship not been deteriorating for the past two years. At the time, though, I was less mature, and half-subconsciously decided to use her infidelity as an excuse to end things. And, if being honest, Meg would have admitted to engaging in the same type of deception. Either way, our long relationship was over.

That had all happened two days ago. I had confided all the details of the painful episode to Phoebe. She was sympathetic, and avoided saying that she thought Meghan and I never should have gone out in the first place, and that I was better off without her, even though I knew that’s what she thought. She was right, too, but the breakup hit me hard nonetheless, and I must have looked as depressed as I felt. Meg and I, at one point, had planned to get married, after all. Out of concern for my mental well-being, Phoebe surprised me, at last, by suggesting that she give me a blow job, in order to take my mind off of things.

“But I didn’t think you had sex with guys?” I asked, puzzled.

“It’s not a big deal,” she said, shrugging, “And also kind of interesting, even though there’s nothing sexual about it for me. Mainly I just like helping a friend.”

Phoebe worked as a physical therapist at the same university where I was in grad school. I was working on my master’s degree in the Sports Medicine department. Part of my curriculum was to do rotations in the physical therapy department at the university hospital. As the best PT there, she’d been assigned to be my mentor. We hit it off right away and had become close friends after a few months. By the time I broke up with Meg, I had long since come to the realization that Phoebe was the closest friend I’d ever had.

* * *

Our friendship started on that first day of PT rotation, two years ago. We were cordial with each other all day, as I shadowed her appointments with her patients. It was pleasant enough working with her, but it was not until after work that we started to connect. We had both changed out of our scrubs and, by chance, wound up in the same elevator going down to the parking garage. She had the same haircut as always, longer on the top and fading to a crew cut in the back, and was wearing brown hiking boots paired with khaki cargo pants. What caught my attention, however, was her Washington Capitals jersey. I was, and still am, a rabid fan, and had never thought I’d meet another one this far from Washington, D.C. Our city was well over a thousand miles from the nation’s capital.

“Whoa,” I said, “You like the Caps?”

“C-A-P-S!” she started to chant, rather than answer directly.

“Do you know somewhere I could catch games?” I asked. “We can’t afford the right cable deal to get NHL games, and I can’t find a sports bar that shows them either.”

“I do know a place,” she said, furrowing her brow in thought, “Although you’ll have to go with me; they won’t let you in by yourself. I was gonna go on Friday for the Bruins game anyway though; wanna come?”

“Oh my god, yes!” I said.

That Friday, clad in my red Alex Ovechkin jersey, I met an equivalently decked-out Phoebe outside the bar. For a variety of reasons, which will become clear later, I won’t provide its real name here. It was in a run-down industrial area that I hadn’t before realized even had any such venues. Based on Phoebe’s appearance, and her earlier hint, I wasn’t too surprised to see a big rainbow flag in window facing the street, and a tall, imposing female bouncer outside. She definitely lifted.

“He’s with me,” Phoebe said, unnecessarily, as she and the bouncer, whose name turned out to be Traci, executed a fist bump.

Inside, to my immeasurable delight, was the largest group of Capitals fans I had seen outside D.C. itself. The interior was dimly-lit and crowded, but even so I managed to count at least seventeen different women wearing white or red Caps jerseys. No men were present, other than myself.

Phoebe and I both knocked back a few beers before the game started. She had a broad, freckled face that matched her open nature. I felt I could tell her anything, even though I did not yet know her well. It turns out we had other shared interests beyond hockey. In particular, we were both avid woodworkers, and, unlike me, she had a shop in her garage. Before the game even started we had made plans for me to swing by in a few days to check out her gear.

Then the game began, and I, along with Phoebe and a bunch of other women, began screaming our heads off. As usual for me, my emotional state swung wildly on every play. I was relieved to see Phoebe, and many of the other patrons, get just as wound up. By the end, a tense overtime loss, both of us were hoarse and drenched in sweat.

A few days later I swung by Phoebe’s house, a two-bedroom bungalow in one of the city’s older neighborhoods. She lived there with her wife, Rosalind. Phoebe had described her spouse as beautiful, but that was not doing justice to her radiant glory. Slightly taller than Phoebe, she had long, wavy black hair that was beginning to show early streaks of gray, tied into a long, thick braid that cascaded over one shoulder. She was wearing a tight-fitting blouse and skirt that showed off her curvy figure.

“Dude, lift your jaw off the ground please and say ‘hi’ to my wife,” Phoebe said, punching my arm.

Rosalind greeted me warmly, despite my evident ogling, giving me a big hug.

“I’ve heard a lot about you,” she said. Her low, smooth voice sounded like a DJ on a Jazz FM station.

Rosalind, despite appearing in every way softer than her wife, turned out to be the more dominant of the two within their relationship. Phoebe acted, frankly, just like I would in an equivalent situation: a big puppy dog hanging on her spouse’s every word, and spoiling her at every opportunity. Even though the putative reason for my visit was to check out the woodworking shop, no mention was made of this until Rosie had shown me around the house. While this impromptu tour was going on, she had Phoebe prepare lunch, and only after post-lunch clean up did the two of us finally head to the converted garage.

The shop was well-appointed, and I ooh-ed and aah-ed over Phoebe’s various works-in-progress. Phoebe suggested I could come by and work there any time, which I readily agreed to. There was no way I could afford something equivalent on a grad student’s salary, let alone find the space. I ended up spending a lot of time there over the next twenty-four months, building a coffee table, lamp, and two side tables for the bedroom. I also helped Phoebe with her several projects, including a massive, solid oak dresser, and an upholstered leather ottoman.

* * *

Over those two years, there had never been sexual tension between Phoebe and me. She was attractive and kept herself in good shape, and even her mode of dress did not fully hide her large, low-slung boobs and beautiful, wide hips. Nonetheless, I had never entertained sexual thoughts about her beyond idle speculation about what she might look like naked. Equally, I had never picked up on even a slight hint of her being bisexual, and therefore interested in me. She had also made it clear that Rosalind was, for all her wonderful qualities, a naturally jealous person who insisted on strict monogamy. This was one of the few contentious points in their relationship, something Phoebe had brought up over beers at the Caps bar more than once.

So when Phoebe casually offered to suck my dick, I was truly taken by surprise, so much so that even now I clearly remember thinking nothing weirder would ever happen to me again. And I also recall that, after she had just finished performing the first blow job, one I would not have considered to be anatomically impossible before, I was intensely curious about how she developed such a skill, given her clear sexual preference for women only.

“If you don’t mind my asking, I was really wondering where you learned how to do that?” I repeated my question from earlier.

“Oh right,” she said, remembering that she had not answered me before. “It was kinda in a similar situation to now, actually.”

“How so?”

“Well, just like you, my bud Joey had just split up with his boyfriend, and was all in the dumps. So after seeing him be all mopey and shit, for like a week, I finally offered to suck him off.”

“Didn’t that seem, I dunno, against your principles or something?”

“You mean ‘cuz I’m gay? I guess some people might think that, but I don’t really care. I don’t mind putting a friend’s dick in my mouth, if they like it, even if it isn’t erotic. It’s just parts.”

My dick, still exposed, made a little jolt at this admission. Phoebe looked down but did not say anything.

“So I gave him a blow job, a pretty bad one to be honest about it, but he did cum in my mouth and the taste didn’t really bother me. And it did take his mind offa his ex. So, well, I started giving him more.”

“Didn’t Rosie have something to say about that?” I asked.

“No, she was cool with it, in fact she ended up being encouraging. She doesn’t care if I suck some guy’s dick, because she knows it’s not sexual. Now, if I so much as look at another chick, hoo-boy! Whole ‘nother story.”

“What about those other guys you mentioned?” I asked.

“Well, even after Joey got together with Carlos, Rosie had me offer to suck both of them off. Which they did take me up on. And then they even recruited Ruben to join them. I think one time I must have swallowed eight or nine loads.”

The wording “Rosie had me” struck me as odd at the time, but between the mind-blowing oral sex I’d just received, and the casual description of her blow-bang with three men, I did not think to follow up on it. I was busy visualizing the scene, and my penis was now fully hard again.

“Looks like you want another one?” she asked.

“You really don’t mind if I cum straight down your throat?” I confirmed.

“Nope, I’ve had plenty of practice. You’re bigger than any of those three, but I don’t think it’ll be a problem, I’m good and stretched out in there.”

With that, she wrapped her lips around my cock and, with customary ease, slid the length of my shaft all the way down her throat. Emboldened by her casual description of taking on three guys, I took a few liberties this time, holding the back of her head more firmly, and thrusting with my hips. Eventually, she kept her head still and allowed me free rein to fuck her mouth with long strokes that started with the head of my cock on her tongue and ended deep in her esophagus. Saliva dripped down onto her shirt in waves, so at one point she tapped me on my right buttock. I took this as a sign that she needed a break, and pulled out. She took off her t-shirt.

“My shirt’s getting too much spit on it,” she explained, “Getting uncomfortable.”

I looked down at her bare chest. Her soft, low-slung and full breasts had large areaolae, several inches across, and inverted nipples. I thought they were beautiful, and seeing them for the first time resolved a minor mystery, which was why I’d never seen their outline before, even though Phoebe never wore bras. As if to confirm her earlier assertion that she got no sexual thrill from any of this, her nipples were still hiding, even now. She was looking at my dick with curiosity, but I took this to indicate merely her natural interest in the human body, the same interest that made her the best PT in the office.

“So I could have seen those any time?” I asked, nodding towards her chest.

She thought for a moment. “Well, actually, yes,” she said. “But you never asked.”

The oral sex resumed, and, with her being topless, I did not last much longer. Looking down I saw her soft boobs, and I felt them hitting my legs. After five or six strokes, I held the back of her head, my cock all the way down her throat, and released blast after blast of cum straight into her stomach. While she did make some gagging noises, she did not try to pull back, nor did she tap out either. I held the back of her head firmly until the spasms subsided, and then left my dick in there to let the rest drip out. She waited patiently, breathing through her nose until I was done. Then I pulled out far enough so that the sperm-coated tip of my dick was lying directly on top of her tongue. She alternated between licking and suctioning this part until it was completely clean.

“Oh my god, thank you,” I said, sometime later. We were lying next to each other on a couch. My flaccid dick was still exposed, as were her breasts.

“No problem,” she said. “That was pretty interesting. Since you’re longer than those guys, I think I had an easier time swallowing. The tip was further down my throat, and it’s like it didn’t trigger a gag reflex as much.”

From her tone, she could have been describing how one brand of lawnmower trimmed grass better than another. I found this surprisingly exciting and began to stiffen again.

“Phee, that is one of the most pleasurable and generous things anyone’s ever done for me, and I’m really not exaggerating” I said. “So can I return the favor?”

As I said this, I indicated her midsection. She smiled.

“I’d do it as long as you wanted,” I added.

“Hm, I’m not sure you’d last that long,” she said.

“I guess I don’t know about my jaw and tongue, stamina-wise, but in spirit I’d be willing to eat you out, well, indefinitely.”

“Well, shit, why did Meg break up with such a ladykiller like yourself, then?” Phoebe asked.

Her tone had a sudden sharpness to it. I took this to mean she was particularly interested in the topic.

“That was the thing! She didn’t like being eaten out,” I said. “It was actually an argument for us, although it was hardly the biggest one.”

“Huh, I never would have guessed,” she said. “So you like eating vagina that much?”

“I know this is gonna sound kinda weird,” I said, “But it’s possibly my favorite thing. Or at least tied for favorite?”

“What do you like about it?” she asked, trying unsuccessfully to hide skepticism. I knew her too well.

“Well, I’ve only eaten out a few women, Meg included, but I liked how they all tasted, even though none of them were that into it and thought it was gross.”

Phoebe made a disapproving face, obviously thinking these women were missing out.

“Also, I loved making them lose control,” I added, “I liked exploring and seeing what made them tick, if you know what I mean?”

Phoebe nodded understandingly.

“Although,” I continued, “I guess it only really worked with Sarah, and only the once. I got a big face full of, I don’t know what, pee or cum, I guess? I was in heaven and super proud of myself, but she freaked out and wouldn’t let me do it again.”

Phoebe made a sympathetic humming noise.

“Well,” she said, “Sadly for you, I’m not into men doing that to me, so I can’t help you out there.”

Somehow the conversation had pivoted for her doing something for me, instead of the other way around.

“Well, is there something else I could do for you? Anything at all?”

“There’s really no need, buddy, I’m just helping my best friend.”

“I know, but I want to do something in return,” I persisted. I was also elated to hear her so casually say I was her best friend, since I felt the same way about her.

“I’ll tell you what,” she said, “I have some things in mind, but I gotta think about them. I’ll let you know. And meanwhile, looks like you’re ready to go again!”

My cock had become fully erect yet again, a result of what was, for me, a sexually-charged conversation. The occasional view of her chest did not hurt, either. Unceremoniously, Phoebe swallowed my member once more. In the end, I came down her throat two more times that day, at which point I was too exhausted to go again.

“Do you want another?” Phoebe said, holding my limp dick with both hands some time after I had just sent a fourth wave of sperm into her stomach.

“I’d say yes, but I think it might fall off,” I said. “As it is, I’m not sure I’m going to be able to walk tomorrow.”

“Good,” she said. “And, are you still thinking about Meg?”

“Who’s that again?”

* * *

It was several weeks before Phoebe asked me to start returning the favors she was doing for me. During this time, she gave me a blow job every time we met up, as long as we had privacy. She even went down on me in a bathroom stall at the Caps bar. It only had a women’s restroom, so she’d had to sneak me in.

Apparently more worried about my state of mind than the condition of her throat, she was aggressive about offering herself to me. I think she was worried that I wouldn’t feel okay using her so often. I have to admit her strategy worked, at least as well as anything could have. True, I remained pretty blue about Meg, but I had cum down my friend’s throat so often, and in such a pleasurable way, that my thoughts usually drifted to reliving those moments rather than my ex.

Still, I had been starting to feel pretty guilty by the time Phoebe called in her first favor. I had not done much for her, at least not in the last two weeks, and I noticed the frequent oral sex was hard on her throat. Although she never complained, her voice was raspier than it normally was, and I occasionally smelled cough drops on her breath. Thus, it was a major relief when she did, at last, ask me to do something in return.

“Hey, so you still up for doin’ me a favor?” she asked.

“Of course! Anything you want!” I said enthusiastically.

I was hoping it would be something as challenging as the blow jobs, to balance things out, and was disappointed when she described what she needed.

“I have this friend, Rhea? She’s doing her postdoc at the School of Public Health, and needs subjects for a survey.”

“Um, sure,” I said, unable to hide my disappointment, “That’s probably nowhere near equivalent to your amazing blow jobs, though.”

“Perhaps not,” she said, “But I might have a few more favors to ask of you later.”

She was grinning like a cat.

“And also,” she added, “This survey sounds like a big pain, to be honest.”

Phoebe was correct, as things transpired. I met Rhea the following day, at a coffee shop near school. Her face was distinctive-looking, if not quite pretty, with olive colored skin, curly blond hair that came down to her shoulders, and piercing blue eyes. It was hard to tell what her ethnicity was; the folds of her eyelids seemed Japanese, but that did not go with the rest of her looks. I quickly gave up trying to guess.

“Sorry this isn’t online,” she said, after introductions. “I couldn’t get that set up, for one reason or another.”

She had no accent at all, so much so that she didn’t sound like a native English speaker. She slid a thick manila envelope over to me.

“Would you be able to fill those out in two weeks?”

“I think so? What’s in it?”

Rhea explained that the professor she was working with had a large-scale study of past and current trends in breastfeeding in the United States, especially in relation to the availability of formula. I was to fill out a rather lengthy survey of which women, if any, in my family, had breast-fed, who had used formula, and who had used both. Each woman had to have their own sheet filled out, and the survey was to include all of my sisters, aunts, grandmothers, and any female cousins. I was starting to see why Phoebe had cautioned me.

“No problem!” I said, however, eager to do something for Phoebe.

It was a problem, though, due in part to the sheer volume of paperwork the requirements implied. I come from a large family that is unusually skewed towards females. I have four older sisters and no brothers, for example. My mom has three sisters and one brother, and my dad, like me, was the youngest kid and had five older sisters. The forms were also surprisingly detailed. I had to track down how many kids each woman had had, whether they had breastfed each child, and for how long, if, and when, and why, they switched to formula, as well as what bra size they used when nursing.

My mom, thankfully, came to my rescue and did most of the leg work. She was a staunch believer in breastfeeding and upon hearing that I was helping an academic study on the matter, volunteered to track down any information she did not already know, including from my father’s side.

“You’re gonna need help with this one,” she said, referring to the notoriously woman-heavy family tree.

It was a running joke that my dad and me, as males, were heavily outnumbered, even at family reunions where you might think things would balance out; my substantial fleet of cousins is predominantly female.

In the end, despite the vast number of females to account for, my mother was able to track down most of the requested details, even including the five cousins who had children of their own by that point. She even had been able to get nursing bra size information for all but four women. I wasn’t surprised by any of my sisters’ proportions; as the youngest sibling I’d been inundated with uncensored bra talk my whole life; there was little mystery there. But as I transcribed all the information to Rhea’s forms, I noticed that, throughout the family tree, women tended towards heavy busts, with the majority wearing a D cup or larger.

Rhea was ecstatic when I pushed the heavy envelope across the table towards her, a few days before the deadline. We had decided to meet at the same coffee shop.

“Oh, thank you!” she said happily as she flipped through a few pages, “This is a gold mine. I don’t think anyone else has had nearly so much… data!”

“Well, my family includes a lot of good Catholics,” I said, “In all senses of the word. And for some reason there seem to be fewer men than normal.”

Rhea was staring at me with an intense, penetrating gaze. I became nervous and started to ramble.

“My dad and I used to joke about being in the minority, but I never realized how extensive it was until my mom got all this stuff back to me. Even my older cousins have had mostly girls. Maybe it’s a genetic thing or something? Like the guys produce fewer Y-chromosome sperm, or maybe the women’s ovaries filter them out or something?”

I blushed as I realized this was way too intimate to share with a comparative stranger. Plus, I was just speculating about something I knew nothing about. Rhea, however, looked intrigued.

“That may be so,” she said, finally breaking eye contact and idly twisting one of her curly golden locks around a finger. “That may be so.”
