new life, I don’t want to go back to the ‘Pilgrim. I much prefer life here in the fresh air, even if it means I don’t live as long.”
“Are you still with Zebrina?” Doctor Gammazeta asked.
Ramondo thought for a while before giving his reply.
“She was your girlfriend, wasn’t she?” the Doctor queried.
“Zebrina’s been my girlfriend for a long time now,” Ramondo told her. “We don’t see as much of eachother as we used to, though.”
“Oh, why is that?” asked the Doctor.
“Zebrina now lives at the Skipton warehouse-cum-factory,” Ramondo told her. “I used to live there with her, but Henry wanted me as his right-hand-man, so to speak, so I now live at Ribblehead Cottage.”
“That’s the place where Henry lives, too, isn’t it?” queried Doctor Gammazeta.
“Yes, that’s right,” Ramondo acknowledged. “I still see Zebrina at Skipton most days, though.”
“What exactly do you do there?” asked the Doctor.
“That’s where we produce cars, like my one further down the hill,” said Ramondo. “In truth, we actually pick up old cars and replicate them into new ones.”
“Is that Henry’s business?” asked the Doctor.
“That’s one part of his business,” said Ramondo. “You see that little green thing down at the bottom of the hill – that’s my car.”
“I’ve heard all about your car,” she said to him. “I’ll bet it’s comfy inside.”
“You could say that,” said Ramondo, who was now beginning to blush a little. “Lucas and Madaly produce and sell new cars, too, in another part of the business based near London.”
“Are they still together?” asked Doctor Gammazeta, to which Ramondo confirmed. “Whatever happened to Professor Wagstaff?”
“He found himself a job as an Astronomer, based in Tenerife,” explained Ramondo. “Gaspar and Gonchaves went to do some work for him once, fitting solar-panelled windows, and they developed another arm of the business there.”
“Wow! Henry sounds a bit of an entrepreneur,” said Doctor Gammazeta.
“He’s a good leader,” replied Ramondo. “A bit cautious sometimes, but generally, he knows when to avoid problems and when to take an opportunity. Did you know, that digital car was actually invented by me and Lucas.”
“Oh really,” queried Doctor Gammazeta. “Doctor Stardust, bless him, always said you were a clever lad, and that you’d go far.”
Ramondo simply smiled at her.
“Do you mind if we stop here for a rest?” Doctor Gammazeta then asked. “My left foot is hurting. I may have a blister.”
“Perhaps you stepped on a sharp stone,” suggested Ramondo, as he stopped to down his tools.
“Possibly,” replied the Doctor. “I may also have banged my foot on the wall of the pot hole you pulled me up from. Would you mind having a look, please?”
Doctor Gammazeta sat down and took her tights off, before telling Ramondo where she was hurting, at the bottom of her foot. As Ramondo examined it, Doctor Gammazeta lay back, and let Ramondo see up the full length of her left leg and beneath her skirt (which was bare!).
“It doesn’t look too bad,” Ramondo told her, as he tried to keep his eyes on the Doctor’s left foot. “You’re probably just worn out, particularly after spending nearly an hour hanging on a rope in Meregill hole. Why don’t you let me carry the rest of the load – the car isn’t too far away.”
“Now you come to mention it, I am a little tired,” admitted Doctor Gammazeta, still lying on the ground. “I’m a little achy all over, too. I really could do with a massage."
Once again, Ramondo was unsure precisely what to say, so just sat down on the grass beside her. Doctor Gammazeta then looked around the hill.
“It’s a little barren around here,” she said. “Why don’t we go over there, behind those trees and bushes.”
“I wouldn’t recommend going anywhere near there,” Ramondo told her. “There’s another pot hole camouflaged behind the foliage.”
“Oh!” she said. “Never mind.”
“Did anyone tell you about Henry’s second car business?” Ramondo then asked her.
“The one in London, or does he have another business?” the Doctor asked.
“Well it’s not exactly his business, but he has shares in a new car manufacturing business in America,” he told her.
“America?” she queried. “That’s another land on this planet, isn’t it?”
“That’s right,” confirmed Ramondo. “It’s one of the biggest countries on Earth, and certainly the most prosperous.”
“Oh, really,” she said rather curiously. “Is Henry attached at all?”
Ramondo informed her that Henry had no partners, but was wondering at what Doctor Gammazeta may be thinking about next, so just lay down and relaxed. Then he began to wonder what else may enter her mind if she saw him relaxing, so he threw the tights back to Doctor Gammazeta.
“Are you feeling better now?” he asked her.
“Oh yes, much better thank you,” she replied, at which point Ramondo stood up and began to walk to the car. “I probably just need a little bit of cream rubbed over me.”
“That shouldn’t be a problem,” said Ramondo, to which she began to smile. “We’ve got some soothing cream at Ribblehead Cottage. Shall we get going?”
Profesor Gammazeta’s smile disappeared, and so quickly put her tights on and followed him down the hill. It wasn’t long before they reached the car. Ramondo opened the door for the Doctor to get into, before he went to put the winch & pulley back in the boot. He then went back to the car and drove back to Ribblehead.
“Hhmmm, nice premises,” she said as Ramondo drove into the driveway. “It’s light-years better than some of the places I was monitoring on other parts of this planet.”
In what countries were those premises you were monitoring?” he asked curiously.
“Iraq, Afghanistan, Sri Lanka,” she replied. “We wanted to avoid places of war.”
“You needn’t worry about any war here in the UK,” Ramondo re-assured her. “This is one of the most developed countries on Earth.”
They then got out of the car, after which Ramondo locked it and unlocked the door to Ribblehead Cottage. Ramondo then led her to the lounge and switched on the TV for Doctor Gammazeta, who was impressed. He then walked to the kitchen, next door.
“Would you like something to drink?” he asked her. “I was going to make some tea, or would you prefer coffee?”
“I don’t mind really,” she replied. “I’m not very fussy.”
“Yeah, I’ve got that impression of you, myself,” Ramondo then commented quietly to himself.
A few minutes later, Ramondo took a tray with cups, saucers and a packet of biscuits into the lounge, which he shared with Doctor Gammazeta.
“That was nice, rather soothing, don’t you think?” she said to him when she finished her cup. “That reminds me, wasn’t you going to give me some soothing cream for my aching limbs.”
“Oh I’m ever so sorry, Doctor,” Ramondo said to her, a little sarcastically, though she didn’t recognise this. “I’ll finish my cup of tea, and show you upstairs.”
Ramondo led the Professor up the stairs and pointed out that behind the door at the top of the stairs was the bathroom.
“There’s a bedroom to the right of this, and a study with books and a PC in the next room, “he explained to her.
“What’s in those two doors to the left of the bathroom?” Doctor Gammazeta asked.
“There used to be a boiler there, many years ago,” said Ramondo. “It’s just a storage cupboard now. The other rooms are all bedrooms, You may as well make one of them yours, while I go and fetch the soothing cream from the bathroom.”
Ramondo spent a couple of minutes in the bathroom, before he took the soothing cream to Doctor Gammazeta. When he opened the door to her bedroom, however, he had a big surprise.
“What are you doing lying naked like that on the bed?!!” he shrieked.
“Oh, I’m aching all over,” she said to him in a poor, sympahthy-seeking voice. “I’d be ever so grateful if you could rub me in. Please?”
“Alright, alright, I’ll see what I can do,” Ramondo replied, believing that he could handle the situation.
He opened the tub of soothing cream and asked Doctor Gammazeta where she would like him to start rubbing it in.
“Can you start on my feet, and work your way up from there?” she requested. “You may want to give me a massage when you’ve finished.”
Ramondo began to rub-in the soothing cream, gently along her left leg.
“How far would you like me to go?” he asked her as his hands were on her hips.
“Oh, please carry on, all the way,” she requested. “I’m beginning to feel a little better already.”
Unbeknown to Ramondo, as he rubbed the cream above her left hip and towards her pubic hair, she undid the button to his trousers, and by the time Ramondo noticed, his trousers were beginning to slip, Doctor Gammazeta noticed a bulge in his pants, prodding outwards. Before he could pull up his trousers, she went to touch the protrooding object.
“Are you alright?” he asked her.
“Oh yes, I’m fine,” she said in a slow, sexy voice. “This feels good.”
Ramondo felt too embarrassed to say anything, so simply grabbed the soothing cream with his left hand, intent on rubbing this into her right foot in order to get away. Doctor Gammazeta tried to pull his pants, as his penis was becoming larger and thicker.
“What’s in here, I wonder?” she said, as she let go with one hand and pulled down his pants with the other. “Oooooohhhh……” she then said. “I’m really up for it, I’m really up for it now. Will you oblige me, please….please?”
Ramondo was unsure, and as he tried to resist his temptations, one hand slipped, and he fell onto Doctor Gammazeta. Ramondo could no longer control his manly urge, and obliged the Professor by thrusting his penis into her.
“Uhh!” Doctor Gammazeta began to pant. “Uhh! Uhh!”
Ramondo was now lost inside the mind of a teenager. He couldn’t stop himself pushing, pushing, pushing ever harder. He kissed her cheeks, then her chin, her neck and body, until he kissed her bare breasts. Doctor Gammazeta continued panting, louder and louder.
“Uhh….Ramondo,….Uhh……Ramondo…..” she then cried.
Ramondo went to kiss her cheeks again, but continued pushing into her, time and time again. He stared at the Doctor, and was about to place his lips against hers. She stared at him, too, and as she noticed his intentions, opened her mouth as they shared French kisses.
“How, how are you?” he asked, as he broke away a few minutes later to gasp for air.
“Carry on, carry on,.…don’t stop,” she cried, as she tried to bring her arms up, and place them around his body.
Ramondo didn’t stop, and began to kiss her breasts. She clenched his rear cheeks tightly, as though she were on a roller coaster and couldn’t let go for dear life. She felt as though this was dear life, dearer and sweeter than anything she could dream about. She felt ecstatic, inside particularly.
Ramondo felt excitement and determnation, determined to continue his mission. The one thing he couldn’t feel was controlled, as he continued thrusting into her, ever harder, ever faster. Her panting grew ever-louder still, ever-wilder, until eventually she came to a climax, at which point she almost screamed with joy.
Ramondo continued until he realised that he had ‘fired the bullet’, as his effort seemed to fade. He lay sweating, on her body, still kissing her breasts, licking her nipples, and tingling inside. Doctor Gammazeta still felt a sensation, though this too began to fade. Eventually, she gained the strength to pat him on his back, as if to request he get off her body. Ramondo realised this, after which he moved to the side of
