The next morning turned out to be sunny and clear. The heavy storm of the night before had left a lot of debris from the trees and bushes. There didn't seem to be any flooding and Pat and Anna decided to start back for the others.
"We should find the commissary and see if we can get some clothes." Pat said, "I just can't put on those muddy clothes for the ride back."
Anna agreed and they drove to the commissary in the robes from the officer's swimming pool. At the commissary they found clothes that would fit them and, after dressing in the new clothes they started back to the others.
Anna looked over at Pat as he was driving, "Thank you."
Pat looked at her, trying to figure out what she was talking about.
She saw his confusion, "I've always avoided any contact with men. I always was afraid of men and I thought that sex was filthy and something that was a curse for women. You made it a beautiful experience."
Pat reached over and took her hand and held it.
"I can't and I won't hide what we did from Pauline," she continued, "If we are to succeed and survive we can't live by having secrets and deceiving others."
"I understand," he agreed.
They spoke about what they needed for the rest of the trip to where they were going to settle down and work on their survival. Anna was worried about continuing the girl's education and Pat told her that that would have to be her duty as she had much more experience in education than he did. He could see that Anna was pleased that he was agreeing to let her be the head of education for the group.
It took them several hours to get back to the motel where the others waited because of the downed tree limbs and wrecked cars and trucks.
When they pulled into the parking lot they saw Sarah and Pauline standing in front of the motel talking. Pat parked the truck and got out and he and Anna walked toward the other two.
Pat and Anna discussed what they had found at the Air Force base and Sarah was visibly distressed that they hadn't found anyone that had survived in the underground rooms at the base. Pat put his arm around her and asked her if she'd fix him something to eat.
As Sarah went into the kitchen and began to fix Pat a sandwich he turned and looked to where Anna and Pauline were standing. Anna was doing most of the talking. He watched as both women began hugging each other and they were both trying to talk and laugh at the same time. They both had tears running down their cheeks. They hugged each other for a long time and laughed and cried.
"Here's your sandwich," Sarah said.
Sarah looked at the pair hugging each other, "I wonder what that's all about?"
Pat just shrugged.
Anna and Pauline began to walk around the grounds of the motel and it was almost dark before they came into the motel. Pauline walked over to Pat and threw her arms around him. Several of the girls were close and they began to make say woooo loudly and to laugh and clap.
Pauline began to blush and she took Pat's hand and led him down the hall to the room she had slept in the night before. They went in and she closed the door and went to him and hugged him.
"Thank you," she said as she kissed him, "Anna and I had a long talk. What you did had to be done and I think that you have changed her opinion of men forever."
Pat looked into her eyes, "I was afraid that you wouldn't be happy with it. I'm still not comfortable with being the only man around and I don't want to hurt you or lose you."
"You'll never lose me," she said with a big grin, "For some reason this has made me more aware of what has to be done to ensure our survival. I feel really strange. I know that you love me and you want to be with me and that I love you but I also know that I have to share you with others so that the human race can survive. I, amazingly, don't feel any jealousy with that and I don't know why. I know that you're mine and, in the end, it's you and me."
Pat kissed her passionately, "You're an amazing woman."
"But, if you don't make love to me tonight in the way that I want to be loved, you will be a eunuch in the morning."
"I promise you that I will be the best lover that you've ever had."
She punched him lightly in the arm, "You'd better be a damn sight better than that because my past lovers have been a bit lacking."
They walked back to where Sarah and Anna were sitting and talking. Anna looked at Pat as if she was waiting for him to blow up at her for talking to Pauline about them making love.
Pat sat down and Pauline sat next to him, "I think that it's time for us to get out of here and to try and set down roots. We have to work on our survival. I'll make sure that all of the vehicles are ready to go tomorrow and I'll pick up whatever we feel we might need from the stores around here and we can start out the day after tomorrow. How do you all feel?"
They all agreed and Sarah got some paper and they began to make a list of what they would have to do before they started out on the long trip to their final destination.
"I'd like one of you to go with me when I go to pick up the things that we'll need," Pat said, "You all will have more insight on what the girls will need than I do."
Sarah was the first one to speak, "I don't like to travel because there's not enough restrooms in the world for me at this stage of my life. I think that we should start including the girls in our little forays away from the others or we're going to start having rebellions. We've been pretty much keeping them isolated from all of our plans."
Pauline looked to make sure none of the others were watching her too close and she gently kicked Pat in the foot with her foot. He did his best not to show any reaction.
"Okay, I'll take two of the girls," he said, hoping that having two girls along would make it less likely that any sexual situations would arise.
After discussing the list and going over it again they broke up the meeting. Anna and Sarah went to calm down the girls and to make sure they weren't getting into trouble. Pat and Pauline walked to their room that was away from the others.
They took a shower together and then crawled into bed. They didn't bother with clothes.
Pauline snuggled in his arms, "I missed you last night. You'll have to make up for it tonight. Are you up to it?"
Pat raised her face to him and kissed her. His tongue began to duel with hers and she began to breath heavy. She broke the kiss and put her head on his chest. Her hand found his cock and she began to gently massage it. Pat began to get hard.
"Hmm, I guess you are up to it," she said, "Now, let's see if you know how to use that thing."
Pat got between her legs and lowered his face to her mound. He began to caress her sex with his tongue, avoiding her clit for a while. Pauline rose off of the bed trying to make her clit meet his tongue. Pat began to worry her clit and she began to moan loudly.
His grabbed his head and pulled him up to her, "I need you now. I've needed you since you came back from the base. I want you."
Pat slowly eased himself into her. Pauline put her hands on his hips and tried to guide him into her faster. When his entire length was in her he paused and then kissed her.
Pauline pulled away from his kiss, "Fuck me, fuck me good and make me cum."
Pat began to pump himself in and out of her cunt. Pauline began to match his thrusts and her hands on his hips began to push him into her harder she wrapped her legs around him and began to fuck back at him hard. Suddenly she cried out and put her arms around his waist and held him tight against her. When she relaxed Pat continued to fuck her and he came inside of her.
Afterward they lay in each other's arms for a long time enjoying being close to each other. After a while they each fell asleep.
