Maybelle Jenkins was a plain good Christian woman, just as she had been a plain good Christian girl and she knew that men preferred their women loose and pretty. She was a good woman and so she raised her daddy's six younger children after his second wife died attended church and prayed that some time before she was too old to appreciate it she would find love. Maybelle was nineteen at the time.

She lived in a little town called Cohen's Gap in West Virginia sometimes in the winter they didn't get out of the house and into town for weeks on end. It was a very hard life.

The winter of 2002 was particularly hard, the snow was extra deep her dad hadn't worked in weeks, and without the food she had canned and smoked all summer they would have starved. Thanks to her thriftiness there was meat and vegetables and fruit to eat and the cow and chickens kept them in eggs and milk Compared to their neighbors they were rich.

Late in November, seeing how things were Maybelle got the two boys working on a leather belt for their dad for Christmas. The girls she set to hemming some linen she had saved from one of their mother's skirts to make handkerchiefs for him. She knew they were making other stuff from the giggling, as was she. Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without presents and a tree.

The morning came to get the tree and the men took off while the girls did the last of the baking. She heard the dogs first, and without thinking ran, and opened the door. Visitors were rare in their part of the Gap.

Standing there was a huge man with dark black hair and a scowl on his otherwise handsome face. She invited him in, sat him down gave him some coffee and fresh cookies. It was clear he had been walking and he certainly wasn't dressed for it, only after he had been taken care of did she then ask him his business.

He explained he was a lawyer from Raleigh looking for Ralph Jenkins, who had once been married to Sarah Marie Schmidt. Maybelle explained he had the right house and that Sarah was the deceased mother of the children he could see working in the parlor.

Ralph and the boys two more of her children were tree hunting and would be back shortly. He smiled, "Give me time to eat a few more of these cookies. You can't be one of Sarah's children your much to mature?" She laughed "Heavens no, I was eight when she married my dad and when she died having the youngest one I knew I had to stay and help raise the children. Dad is helpless inside a house.

"Is this enough for you child," he asked. He was surprised at her reaction. She shook her head no and excused herself. He could hear her sniffles from the pantry. Finally, she returned.

"I am a plain woman Sir, with no prospects here in the Gap and I am unable to leave so it has to be."

He smiled and patted her hand. "That is about to change. Sarah's parents were wealthy and they died in an auto accident leaving her their only heir. With her deceased that means her children are now rich."

It was at the end of that speech that the two boys and her dad walked in to see her struck speechless and sitting at the table with a stranger. Strangers seldom brought good news in Ralph Jerkin's experience so his first question was a touch hostile "Who the hell are you and what do you want? He asked as he stormed into the country kitchen.

Now Jim Tully was an experienced man and quick on his feet. They faced each other across the table glaring into each other's eyes as Maybelle explained. Soon Ralph with his own coffee and cookies was setting at the same table laughing at his sudden stroke of good fortune. To tell the truth he had been worried about the long cold cashless winter. Now he could relax.

"This doesn't come with any restrictions like I have to move these kids to the big city now does it?" Jim admitted that wasn't a requirement only that if there were grandchildren that they finish high school and collage and there were separate trust funds for that purpose. He hesitated and smiled there is a trust fund for Maybelle here as well, although since no one knew her name she is referred to as the half sister.

"For me?" asked May belle in a soft whisper? Jim smiled because this part made him feel good for some reason; this young innocent girl who didn't know how beautiful she could be had touched his heart.

"Yes for you, you can go to collage or travel or do anything you desire."

Maybelle smiled but said, "I can't do that Dad needs me here." Ralph shook his head. "Child I did need you and your always going to be welcome here but Maddy is fourteen now, and Abby is twelve we can manage while you're gone." The look on her face was the best Christmas present ever.

He looked to the lawyer "How soon does the money come in and can you help arrange for her to go to collage nearby?"

Jim said, "The estate can advance money and if she is in Raleigh I can keep an eye on her and help with any problems. It's part of what I get paid for."

Ralph being a man suddenly looked long and hard at this stranger and caught a soft bemused expression in his eyes as he watched his oldest that every day looked more like her mother. No one wanted Sadie when he married her at eighteen she had plain brown hair and a large nose everyone said. "Ralph you could have the pick of the women here, what are you thinking of marrying Sadie?"

Ralph could have told them of her great heart or her wonderful sexuality, or her proud large breasts or her feminine center always ready to welcome him at night. He never did just counted them the loser for not seeing true beauty. Besides, by twenty-two she had finished growing and turned into the prettiest woman in the Gap and he would have fought anyone who didn't think so.

It snowed another two foot while they talked and Jim Tully spent that day and Christmas with them before they could dig out his car and he could get on his way.

He came back most weekends after that and his love for this plain wonderful woman grew with every trip. Often now dressed for the weather they would take walks and build snow people and he learned to enjoy for the first time in years the outside and simple things. He also learned to enjoy Maybelle kissing her in the cold, snuggling under a quilt on the sofa in front of the fire at night and teasing her at every opportunity.

That she was a virgin was plain to him. That he wanted to be her first and last experience with a man was becoming plainer. Each time he kissed her, he desired more this she freely gave of her heart and her emotions. He knew he could take her at his leisure. Jim wanted to make it perfect for her and so he was waiting for when she came to Raleigh. He believed besides if he bedded her now her father might not ever let her out of the house.

Jim was almost twenty years older then Maybelle and considerably more sophisticated. He wanted to give her a chance to catch up with him so she would know why she chose him when she did finally take him for her own. All good reasons to wait but meanwhile he spent more then his share of time like a teenager again masturbating in the lavatory or late at night in bed.

Finally, school was due to start in two days. They had found her a simple one bedroom apartment furnished it, filled the cupboards and fridge with more food not made by her or her mom then she had ever seen and she was ready.

That night Jim came over with a bottle of wine and they sat down to a simple dinner of beef stew and homemade biscuits. Later they listened to music on her new system and talked about this new step in her life. As most evenings together did, this one ended up in kissing and light petting always over her clothes.

Tonight Maybelle felt different and she wanted it to be different. She pulled away and with shaking hands pulled her sweater over her head. Jim sat eyes wide and mouth open, trying to ask if she was sure. He knew she was when she reached and pulled his head to her breasts.

He passionately licked and sucked her through her bra pulling and tugging with his teeth at her nipples until they were hard as carbon tipped points on a pencil. Finally, he raised his head as he reached behind her and asked, "May I?" She nodded and he unhooked her bra and for the first time, her breasts fell free into his waiting hands.

They fit perfectly and he lovingly lowered his head to his first taste of her beauty. She sighed and dropped her hand down and he felt her lightly exploring his hardened cock. He hoped she would be brave enough to pull him free as he was running out of room and in some discomfort.

He left her nipple and smiled at her as he covered her hand with his, "Please Maybelle, take it out and touch it I ache to feel your hands upon me".

With that he went back to tormenting her nipples and his hands slide around her waist and loosened the buttons of her skirt. Having a taste of her naked, he now wanted it all. He wanted to lie with her all night and hold her even if she wasn't ready for intercourse he would know the taste and feel of her at last.

Maybelle unzipped him and with shaking hands pulled him free. She gasped in wonder to see how large he was hardened. Having brothers and a cabin as small as their's had been she had seen several family cocks no one looked like Jim's.

"It's too big, she cried out. All this time waiting and it won't even fit."

Jim sat back and took her in her arms. "My darling, do you want it to fit? Are you ready to make love to me?" He heard his voice tremble with longing and felt his hands shaking as he watched her big beautiful blue eyes fill with tears, and her face redden in embarrassment.

She nodded and lowered her head. To Maybelle only sluts or bar whores wanted sex good women only did it for having babies. He asked her what the problem was and he had to try very hard not to laugh when she explained.

Maybelle, that's not true. Many women have sex with people they love without having babies. God made it an enjoyable experience to make up for some of the bad things that happen every day.

The look on her face was priceless. "He did?" Jim nodded. "Not that I wouldn't like to have babies with you, but not until you have a chance to find out what the real world is like and that you want to have babies with me."

"Does that mean we can't do it until then, I have a powerful need to find out if this thing and she gently caressed his cock can stop the itching my pussy has been feeling since I met you."

This time he laughed and pulling her up to him slide her skirt down and off. Now just in her panties he quickly made short work of them as well. He got up off the sofa with her in his arms and headed for her bedroom.

"Anytime you're scared or want to change your mind let me know but otherwise let's see about that itch and he gently tossed her into the middle of the bed following her down and capturing her mouth with his. He started by kissing her almost senseless for the first time taking her mouth and discovering all her secrets. When she was compliant, he moved to her ears and the hollow of her throat and down to her breasts again. He returned the nipples to their peaks of desire and trailed his mouth down her center sucking and licking her belly button before finally landing at the junction of her legs. She was having a hard time lying still and moaning almost constantly. He started up her legs alternating and then finally reached out and tasted his prize for the first time.

She tried to stop him but he continued and as his tongue invaded her most precious womanly treasure he felt her climax and tasted the flow of her juices. He explored her virgin barrier first with his tongue and then with his fingers first one then another. It was flexible and he felt if he gave her a large orgasm and took it when she was lost in pleasure she would almost not feel it. He stopped and moving up cuddled her as his hands kept busy keeping her on the edge of something wonderful she wasn't sure quite what only that she needed it.

Maybelle listen to me. This next will hurt and then it will be more pleasure for you then I can describe. She nodded. "I know mama explained it all before she died. I only want you and I want you now."

He reached for a condom, and then slicked it wet in her juices and rubbing her clit until she was shaking and pushing hard against him, he pushed in and through her barrier. She cried out once and then her arms came around him and she locked her feet around his hips and met him thrust for thrust. He continued to nuzzle her nipples and rub her clit as he felt his balls tighten and his cock grow larger he knew he was going to come soon. Just before he did she toppled over the hill with a loud scream of joy and her juices bathing his cock took him along. He continued her pleasure as long as he could and then pulling out he discarded the condom and cuddled her close.

So began the affair of Maybelle and her mentor Jim. He took her to movies, and plays and art galleries and introduced her to all the famous and wonderful people he knew. He also helped her learn how to dress and about hair and makeup. Long weekends and holidays they could be counted on to journey back to the cabin and stay with her dad and the children. In time, the kids came to visit. While there they learned about big cities and that sometimes different was good...

Maybelle was twenty-one and almost out of college due to her accelerated courses when Jim finally asked her to marry him. She of course said yes and they quickly set a date when Maybeetle told him it was a good thing because she was pregnant and hadn't known how to tell him.

Jim who was turning forty-one was happy and mad. Happy at the prospect of fatherhood, mad because she hadn't told him from the first minute she knew about the baby. They wisely got married before they returned to her home. Knowing her father wouldn't have been pleased.

Every Christmas they went home and this one was no different except that Maybelle was now married, Jim didn't have to sleep without her any more, and obviously, her Dad was going to be a grandpa. He took the news well. He had some news of his own to tell Jim. He had been diagnosed with lung cancer a typical side effect of miners in those hills and hadn't long to live. Jim promised to buy a home big enough for everyone and started figuring out how to get him to a good hospital and good medical care.

He managed both; Maybelle's Dad lived to see the baby born on the Fourth of July and to see her graduate from college and two more start. He also welcomed another grandson before he went to sleep one night and didn't wake up. They mourned him of course, but life goes on and soon all the kids treated Jim and Maybelle's house like home and them like parents and it was good.
