Anything for Food - A Post-Apocalyptic Erotic Tale (3 page)

“Here you go.” Jake said,
handing a soft, fuzzy robe in through the door, “It works just
like a normal shower but you won't have a lot of pressure on the hot
water. At this time of day, just run it straight hot. The sun hasn't
had a chance to really heat the water yet. There's soap and shampoo
in the stall.”

“You use the sun to heat your
water?”

“Yeah, my regular hot water
heater is electric and I don't generate enough electricity to use it.
So I rigged a solar hot water heater on the roof. It works, mostly,
as long as there's any sun in the sky.”

“You generate electricity? Hold
on, you know what? Let me shower, we can talk after.”

“Good plan. I've got a few chores
to do so I'll leave you to your shower. Like I said, there's only
about eight minutes of warm water before you'll be back to just
cold.”

“Okay.”

Jake shut the door and she heard him
walking down the hallway. She stripped off her filthy clothes. They
were ragged in places and caked with dirt. She tossed them onto the
floor of the shower, figuring they could start getting clean in her
own rinse water. She'd scrub them a little and rinse them out after
but that she could do with cold water.

Andi stepped into the shower and turned
the hot water handle. As he said, there wasn't much pressure, but
just feeling the warm water sluice over her body was wonderful. She
paid attention to his warning and just ran the water long enough to
rinse herself off and soak her skin and hair. She scrubbed herself
with the soap and shampoo, finding her just longer than shoulder
length hair horrendously snarled. Once she soaped herself up and
shampooed, she turned the water back on.

She rinsed all the suds out and the
water was still warm. She took advantage of that and spent the last
minute or two that the warm water lasted letting it run over her
body, luxuriating in the feel of it. She stepped out when the water
started getting colder. After shutting the hot water off and turning
the cold on, she scrubbed her clothes as well as she could and then
rinsed them out. She didn't see anyplace to hang them so for now they
went over the shower door.

She used the single towel visible in
the bathroom. As she dried herself off with it she smelled a
masculine odor on the towel. Unsurprisingly, it smelled like Jake.

Once dry, she borrowed the brush on the
sink and tried to run it through her hair. There were several snarls
that just weren't coming out no matter what she did. She shrugged
mentally,
There isn't much I can do about that right now.

Andi donned the robe and tied it shut.
It was larger than she anticipated and, like the towel, it smelled of
Jake. She thought back for a moment, she hadn't really paid much
attention to how he looked but when she scanned through her recent
memories she realized that he was taller than average. He was also
very well developed with a large chest and muscular arms. She guessed
that his legs would probably match but she hadn't seen them, yet.

She left the bathroom and walked back
down the hall. The hardwood floors beneath her feet were chilly until
she got to the living room where throw rugs covered the floors. She
spotted Jake sitting there, cranking a handle on a small radio. His
eyes flickered to her when she entered the room.

“Is that one of those hand crank
charged radios?” she asked.

“Yes, but it's more than just
that.”

“How so?”

“Well, the regular AM and FM
channels aren't broadcasting any more but this radio also picks up a
limited selection of shortwave bands. There are still a few private
broadcasts on the shortwave bands. I try to listen to them whenever I
can to pick up more news about what's going on.”

“Oh, you can talk to them?”

“No, damn it. I never got my
license for that. This is just a receiver, I never got a transmitter
because I didn't have my license. I probably should've made that a
higher priority. I didn't realize just how much I'd miss talking to
people.”

“What, you don't talk to anyone?”

“Well, there's this guy I see
once a week. Even before things got bad, I'd trade him some eggs for
some goat's milk since he has goats but no chickens. He isn't the
most talkative type though.”

“Well at least you get to visit
with him.”

Jake stopped cranking the radio and
started fiddling with the dials.

“Yes and no, we don't meet at
either one of our houses. He doesn't know where mine is and I don't
know where his is. We meet at an intersection down on the road at a
scheduled time each week. I assume he's in walking distance of it
just like I am but that's all I know.”

“So, in essence, you're alone
here.”

“Pretty much.”

“That's sad. But not as sad as
having nowhere at all, alone or not.”

Jake stayed silent, the look on his
face suggesting that he agreed with her. He turned the radio off with
a sigh.

“No-one's broadcasting right
now.”

“So, you said you wanted to see
me cleaned up. Here you go. There's a few snarls in my hair that I
couldn't untangle, I might have to cut those out.”

Andi loosened the belt on the front of
the robe and let it slide open a little. Enough to show more cleavage
but not enough to show anything else. She cocked her head and looked
at him inquisitively:

“So, what do you think?”

“Not bad at all.”

Andi harrumphed.

“Only not bad?”

“I'm just going from what I can
see. You're stacked and you have an attractive face but that's all I
can tell.”

Andi tried to set the hook hidden
within the bait she'd offered earlier.

“Hey, I know where you're going
with that. I told you before, it'll take more than a meal and a
shower to see the rest.”

“Well, what exactly do you want
and what exactly are you offering?”

Andi was unprepared for him to be that
blunt so she was caught off-guard.

“I want... Well, what I want is a
place to stay and something to do to earn my keep.”

“That's kind of steep for just
seeing
the rest of you. I think that you need to offer more if
that's what you really want.”

Andi found herself tongue-tied. The
conversation was going where she wanted it to; the only problem was
that Jake was taking it there, and far more quickly than she was
prepared for.

“I'm offering... Oh hell, I don't
know. What do you want?” she said.

“Well, I don't really
need
that much help. I designed the place so I could take care of it all
on my own. I could use some help though since it would give me more
time to do other things. What I need is companionship. But I'm not
going to let you stay just for the company.”

“Then what else do you want?”

“You said you'd do anything for
food earlier. I'll offer the same things I provide myself; food,
shelter, the whole nine yards. What I want from you is help in the
regular chores around the place and... Well to be blunt, I want you
available to me for sex, whenever and however I want.”

“What? I can't believe you just
said that!”

Andi stared at Jake as he watched her,
waiting for an actual answer.

She gave it some thought, blushing as
she did so. It wasn't all that different from her own plan. When she
was offering herself as bait she was thinking of sex. The big
difference was that her plans involved her setting the hook, not him.
The 'whenever and however' bit was surprising to her also. She bit
her lip as she considered.

Two weeks, I've been looking for two weeks and found nothing.
He isn't ugly, it looks like he'll have food coming in right along,
and he's all set up for this situation. I don't know if I can be at
his beck and call for sex though. I like sex and all but...

What the hell, sex is fun and it's no big deal to me. The worst
that happens is that he wants it a lot more than I do. There are lots
worse fates. Maybe I can convince him to relax those restrictions
over time, maybe threaten to leave if he doesn't.

Oh hell, who am I kidding. Even as offered it beats starving,
running for my life, sleeping in the woods, and all that bullshit.
I'm lucky I didn't get raped yet. If I leave here and survive long
enough that's bound to happen too. I'd have to be a fool not to
accept his offer and momma didn't raise no fools.

“Could we work into that? I don't
even know much about you but your name.” she said.

Jake shook his head.

“That's my offer, take it or
leave it. If you leave it I'm sure I can find another refugee to take
it sooner or later.”

“Fine then, I accept.” she
said.

“Good” he said, “I
want to mention one thing before I'll hold you to that. I don't care
if you consider yourself my paid companion or whatever. I'll even
listen to you if you tell me to stop. But if you do say 'no' when I
try to do something or tell me to stop then I'll consider that to be
your resignation and you'll be on your way shortly thereafter. If
you're still willing to go through with it just let me know and we'll
call it a deal.”

Andi winced slightly at his conditions
but she didn't even think about turning him down.

“Yes, I'm willing.”

“Good, then strip and we'll seal
the deal.”

Andi slowly stripped the robe off of her body. She arched her back
slightly to make her breasts more prominent. They were large and that
was about the only positive thing she could think of about them. They
sagged when not supported, they weren't very firm, the nipples were
too big. She could go on and on about the deficiencies
she
saw
in them but she also knew the effect that they normally produced in
men. Jake proved to be no different than the rest of them in that
regard.

Andi had been slightly stocky until just recently. The last month
had trimmed off most of her excess fat. Hard living, lots of walking,
and running for her life had trimmed the fat off of her body,
replacing portions of it with muscle. She was now more trim and toned
than she was two years back when she graduated from high school. She
always thought that she was in the best shape of her life as a senior
in high school but she now put that level of fitness to shame.

Andi watched Jake's eyes run over her entire body before focusing
in on her breasts. He stepped forward and slid his hands beneath
them. She'd swear she saw a touch of drool at the corner of his mouth
when he hefted them, bouncing them gently as he stared.

She immediately lost the rather nonchalant attitude she'd been
trying for when he leaned over and took her nipple into his mouth. It
had been a long time since she'd been laid, more than a month. She
was used to getting done two or three times a week and her body
craved it. She found that out the hard way when Jake began to suck on
her nipple. She could feel it swelling immediately when he touched it
and, to make matters worse, she felt herself getting wet at the idea
of a man with his hands and mouth on her.

Jake switched nipples. As his lips touched her second nipple she
felt it engorge to match the first. His hands moved to her ass,
tracing the indentations on either side before moving to firmly grasp
the entire thing. When he finally took his mouth away from her
breast, he spoke.

“I'm sorry, but I doubt I'm going to last very long this
first time. I'll take you again tonight and try to make it better for
you then. This first time, I'm just going to bury myself in you and
pound away until I cum. It's been way too long.”

His hands wandered off of her ass and came around to the front.
One went back to her breasts and started massaging and fondling first
one, then the other. His index finger traced the shape of her
breasts, from the slope on their top down to where they hung onto the
front of her ribcage. His finger slid beneath the sag, teasing the
underside of her breasts. His second hand slid down towards her
pussy, rubbing around the outside before venturing towards the
middle. As his finger slipped into her he smiled.

“Well, maybe it'll do something for you too since you're
already wet from the thought of it.”

Damn him, but he's right. I don't know if it's the sex with a
stranger thing, the fact that I can't say no if I want to stay here,
or something else, but I want it bad.

Jake stepped back.

“Play with yourself while I get
undressed, do whatever turns you on the most.”

Andi pinched and stretched her nipples
as Jake watched. As he continued to undress, she moved one hand down
to her pussy and started playing with her clit. The other one
continued to play with her nipples. Her actions were rewarded by a
flood of moisture that was going to make it very easy for Jake to
penetrate her. At least that's what she thought until she saw him
finish stripping.

Jake's erection was huge or, she
amended to herself, at least bigger than any cock she'd had inside of
her previously. She found herself wondering if her flooded pussy
would be lubricated enough to take him inside of her. She cooperated
when Jake stepped over to her and pushed her towards the couch.

“Lean over the arm of the couch
and spread your legs.”

Andi did as he commanded and
immediately felt his hands on her pussy. It was gently massaged as he
spread the moisture around to lubricate her entrance. His fingers
pulled her open, holding her that way. She felt the head of his cock
at the entrance of her pussy, sliding in just a bit. Then he began to
push forward and she felt herself filling up and nearly stretching to
accommodate him.

Andi grunted with pleasure as he forced
his way inside of her. With as wet as her pussy was she was only
lubricated just enough to make his entry possible. There was a touch
of pain as he stretched her wide but the feeling of being utterly
filled by his cock made the pain seem unimportant. He continued to
push, grabbing her thighs and spreading them wider to help. As he
thrust into her over and over, she was overwhelmed by the sensation.
Each time she was sure that he couldn't be any larger, that he
couldn't possibly fill her up any more, he'd manage to get himself in
a little bit deeper and she'd have to rethink things.
