It's a beautiful drive on the interstate. Luke and Kathy stopped briefly for gas just before the Nevada border. They continue along the scenic route of I-80 heading east.
-What a beautiful day!
Kathy says taking in the views of the valleys and mountains in the distance.
The goal is to cross the Wyoming border by midnight, local time. Luke and Kathy enjoy the drive, making small talk every now and then. He gets a phone call from his fiancé Sara after her shift ends at work. She's happy to hear that he's on the road with his grandmother, and moving to Colorado to be with the family. The call lasts only a few minutes and contains the usual updates of how things are going and how she doesn't know when she'll feel safe to leave Denver and come back home. Luke hangs up with a disappointed sigh.
-Still not comfortable coming home is she?
Kathy asks her grandson.
-No. She's not. And now she's scared even more because of you coming to live with us because of your age. She already knows you were vaccinated just like she was. But what can I do? Sara has always been stubborn.
Luke says feeling defeated.
Kathy reaches her hand over and rubs Luke's leg as he drives down the interstate.
-Things are going to get better! You'll see! This pandemic is coming to an end and vaccines are being rolled out! It's only a matter of time before Sara comes back and you both will have your long awaited wedding! It'll be beautiful! I can't wait for that day to come!
Kathy tells Luke with a great burst of optimism.
Luke shakes his head and shrugs his shoulders with a grunt. He's over the pandemic, his stubborn fiancé, and most of all, feeling sexually frustrated. His grandmother must know how to read minds as her next question throws him off guard.
-Forgive me for asking, but you must be tired from the excessive masturbation huh?
Kathy asks looking at her grandson.
Luke swerves the vehicle, almost merging onto his next lane when he hears Kathy.
-GRANDMA!! What the hell?
-I'm sorry Luke! I just had to ask! I'm just being nosy. We're both adults here. We can have an adult conversation on a long road trip, can we?
Kathy says with a nonchalant tone in her voice.
Luke thinks about this for a moment and realizes she has a point. He trusts his grandmother and he'd rather have uncomfortable conversations about his sex life with her than his parents.
-I guess you're right grandma. You just threw me off guard a bit! Never really thought I'd have these kind of talks with you,
Luke says.
-Why not? Like I said my darling, we're both adults here. And we got hours to go before we stop for the night. Might as well keep things interesting. Besides, I'm curious and nosey. And I must say, I'm INCREDIBLY interested to know how you've been sexually dormant since Sara hasn't been home in almost a year!
Luke actually laughs when his grandmother talks about being curious about his sex life. He figured what the hell? Might as well talk to her about one of the many dilemmas in his life at the moment. Kathy was right on point talking about his excessive masturbation. Luke spent countless hours each week watching porn and jerking himself off for the sake of temporary pleasure. He jerked off to take away some of the stress in his life and due to the absence of not having his fiancé around with him. He missed having her around. The sex was great between him and Sara. She loved to suck him off and dress in kinky outfits for him. Luke would jerk off thinking about the times they had sex while she wore kinky clothes. She loves to ride his cock. It was her favorite position. The one thing that helped make up for her absence is the fact that she'd send her fiancé sexy photos and full on nudes on her days off when she could. She would send sexy pictures in her nurse outfit after work and promised Luke that the first thing she'd do when she gets back from Denver is to have a role play session in a hotel with a nurse and patient scenario. The hope of seeing her soon and the constant masturbation is what has helped Luke stay committed to her even from a distance.
Luke spends his time on the road talking to his grandmother about all of this without feeling a slight sense of discomfort. Kathy sits in silence listening attentively to her grandson. After he brings her up to speed on his sex life, she continues the conversation with follow up questions.
-So, have you ever been tempted to find sexual pleasure elsewhere?
She asks causally.
-What do you mean grandma?
-Well, it sounds like you've been managing your sexual urges the best that you can given your circumstance. But is it enough to just masturbate and wait for Sara to come home?
Kathy asks.
Luke thinks about her question for a moment to find the appropriate response.
-I mean, of course. I've been tempted to sneak around. It'd be easy to. But I still love Sara. And I'd hope she's just as committed to me as I am to her. I've thought about cheating many times, especially after having arguments with her over the phone begging her to come back home already. I don't know. It's a weird feeling. I'm not comfortable with cheating on her behind her back, but at the same time, I know I am capable of it. Anybody is. I guess I've just been fortunate that I haven't come across a situation where I'd have to worry about doing it,
Luke says to Kathy.
She just nods her head.
-Have you talked to Sara about opening up your relationship? Maybe seeing other people while you're both away from each other for such a long period of time?
Kathy asks.
-I've thought about bringing it up to her. There was a time where she got drunk and was crying over the phone thinking that I would leave her. She said if I did, she would understand. I comforted her and told her we wouldn't ever get to that point. I decided against bringing that subject up since I doubt we'd both be on the same page,
Luke says.
-Gosh grandma! You really are nosy!
Luke says with a chuckle.
-Well of course I am! We're both adults here and I just had to know how you've managed to go this long without any intimacy with your partner,
Kathy says with a smile.
-Well now you have me wondering grandma! Have you had any relationships or sexual encounters since grandpa passed?
-Oh boy! That's a conversation for another day my darling!
Kathy says with laughter.
-Wow! I see how it is! We can talk about me but not you huh?
Luke says with a chuckle.
Kathy follows up with a promise to continue on with the conversation another day. Possibly the next day on the road.
