Tilly and Elmer FlashbackX (9) - Strokes of Luck

By Gene Clements

In the Tilly and Elmer FlashbackX series, our favorite sexagenarians describe, in sometimes hilarious and sometimes scandalous detail, their slow motion coming of age in the Midwest in the early sixties. From their clumsy first date to the first time they go “all the way” (on the second try), you’ll gasp at Elmer’s inexperience, smile at Tilly’s (real or faked?) innocence, and perhaps shed a tear of recognition at the blundering beauty of their first time.

After over a year of foreplay, Tilly and Elmer finally go “all the way”. They have been anticipating this event for a long time, and while it doesn’t completely live up to their expectations, it’s definitely unforgettable and, over time, the experience becomes more and more perfect in their memory until it becomes legendary. The immediate aftermath, however, raises a number of questions in Tilly’s mind, although from Elmer’s point of view, now that he’s a real man, life couldn’t get more beautiful.

‘Elmer went into the bathroom and unzipped his pants. His penis was aimed at the ceiling. He tried to think of something besides Tilly and the fact that she was in bed naked in the next room, waiting for him to deflower her. His attempt to think about something else was unsuccessful. It appeared that urinating could take him all afternoon, but he wouldn’t be able to comfortably have sex with Tilly if he had to pee. He considered getting into the shower so he could try to urinate with his penis pointing upward. That might work, but it could be messy and awkward. He decided to try it that way, but outside the back door. He ducked back into the bedroom and told Tilly he would be right back, that he had to go outside for a second.
“Why?” she asked.
“My dick is so hard I can’t bend it down toward the toilet so I’m going to pee outside, where it won’t matter.”
“Can I watch?” she asked, laughing.
“Tilly, if you’re watching, I won’t be able to pee for a week. Just wait for me, I won’t be long.”’

Author’s Note:

These fictional stories chronicle the romantic, usually erotic, and almost always humorous, adventures of Tilly and Elmer, a Midwestern couple in their late sixties. They’ve been married for close to fifty years, and would appear to the casual observer to be the definition of an old married couple. But while they ARE a couple, AND married, they don’t consider themselves OLD. In fact, they still feel like teenagers most of the time, although sometimes events remind them that they aren’t quite as athletic, skinny, or flexible, as they were five decades ago. No matter. They try to recapture their youth anyway; and when they can’t quite recapture it, they at least give it a good chase.

In this series, Tilly and Elmer FlashbackX, they remember their high school dating years, from their first date to the night they finally go all the way. You may find these stories sounding a little familiar as Tilly and Elmer reveal the clumsy interactions, the shocking miscommunication, and the catastrophes that seem funny in retrospect, as well as the surprising delights and breathtaking pleasures of learning about sex and falling hopelessly in love.

I’m primarily a visual artist and began writing these stories almost by accident, so it was natural for me to add illustrations to accompany the text. Tilly is a little shy about some of the illustrations, but Elmer is often turned on
