The rest of the week went in a blur ... accompanied by lots of sex and lots of squirting of course. Jennifer and Adam made love all over the apartment over those next three days – whenever and where-ever they felt like it ... on the sofa, on the floor, on the kitchen table, half way up the stairs, on Sophie’s bed, on Rhea’s bed and even in Jennifer’s bed would you believe.
Another bonus of the week was Mrs Maxwell taking on Adam to work in her bookshop and, like everyone else, he was allowed to work completely nude. Mrs Maxwell, and the three girls all found it a great relief to have some ‘male muscle’ around to assist with some of the heavier chores. They also found it rather exhilarating to watch his muscles ripple as he worked and to admire his cute little butt cheeks tense and relax whenever he was working up a step-ladder.
Adam also found that ALL the girls, including Mrs Maxwell, were forever finding excuses to have to squeeze passed him just to enjoy the feel of his long soft penis rolling against their thigh, or butt, or even their pussy mound if they were daring enough. To get his own back Adam would walk up behind one of the girls when they were bending over and ‘accidently’ push his penis hard into the vagina that was being ‘presented’ to him. The girls would give a squeal of fright that quickly turned to delight when they spun round only to face straight into Adam’s long dangling cock.
On Friday afternoon Adam had just done this to young Reese when she was alone in the back room bending over some books she was sorting out. Reese gave a lovely high pitched squeal when she suddenly felt Adam’s knob pressing hard up against her vagina and butt hole. She spun round in the usual surprised manner and saw what it was that was attacking her from behind. Without skipping a beat Reese put the whole thing in her mouth and began to suck Adam off! For the next ten minutes Adam’s knob and long erect shaft was at Reese’s mercy and he just stood there like a man and took it all.
Reese’s mouth and tongue did a beautiful job of working Adam’s penis up into a large and very full erection in no time at all. The youngest shop assistant also didn’t bat another eyelid when Adam’s body climaxed causing him to ejaculate his full load right into Reese’s mouth. She took the lot without a word or murmur of complaint. Every last drop of semen that spurted from Adam’s penis went into Reese’s mouth as she sucked and licked it and every last drop went straight down her throat as she swallowed. Reese then took her mouth off Adam’s cock, gave it a quick wipe with some tissues then turned around and went back to her work without uttering a word.
It was Adam who spoke first after about a minute’s stunned silence.
“Um ... errrr ... well ... I just came to tell you, Reese, that it is time for a coffee break. Can I get you something from the bakery?”
Reese stood up, turned around, gave Adam a lovely little kiss right on the lips and replied, “No thanks. I just need some coffee. I have just eaten!”
With those words she smiled and winked at Adam then sashayed passed him out of the door and into the lunch room swinging her naked little hips all the way and humming happily to herself as she went.
Adam soon followed behind but still feeling a bit stunned at what had just happened and just how quickly it had happened. Of course he wasn’t about to complain but it did serve as a wonderful example in his own mind of just how incredible this Jennifer Effect thing might turn out to be and how being nudity friendly in the workplace was going to be good ... REALLY GOOD for staff morale!
When Jennifer walked naked into the shop through the back door she wasn’t sure just what sort of a reception Mrs Maxwell was going to give her. What she didn’t expect was NO re-action at all. When Mrs Maxwell saw Jennifer through her office window she just waved and carried on with her work. There was no way in Jennifer’s mind that the store owner/manager could have missed seeing Jennifer’s nakedness. Jennifer decided to just carry on like normal and began her afternoon by unpacking several...
If Jennifer understood nothing else about what had gone on that day she understood this – right now she was going to fuck and be fucked! That’s what the Jennifer Effect was going to mean to her – sucking this Batman’s cock right off his body then getting him to screw her to within an inch of her life and she didn’t care if she orgasmed and squirted all night long and flooded the whole house out. That would all just be part of the Jennifer Effect! The Jennifer Effect in Action, she...
The rest of the day was a complete success. The girls worked so much better in the nude and not one customer complained. In fact, just like the man with the photocopying business, many other customers left the shop saying how they might just try the same thing in the place where they worked. As word very quickly got out about Mrs Maxwell’s Bookshop there were a few other businesses up and down the street that decided, for the rest of the afternoon, they would become NUDITY FRIENDLY as well....
After their breakfast at Pete’s Pancake House the naked quartet set off down town to do some shopping. It really was wonderful to see all the people of Cedarcrest enjoying the Total Nudity Friendly weekend. It added a whole new dimension and feel to the atmosphere of this beautiful little town. When different ones found out who Jennifer was and that it was her that had started this whole Jennifer Effect thing they just couldn’t thank her enough and insisted on giving her so much stuff free...
It was now 10:00am and Jennifer was lying spread eagled on a table, in a classroom, in the middle of Blanke Schande while a naked man was quietly tracing the folds of her pussy lips and vagina with his fingers. Jennifer had not been expecting anything like this on her first day of attendance to ART and the HUMAN FORM. The art instructor was a well proportioned middle aged woman with an ample bosom and a neatly trimmed ‘landing strip’ above her vagina. Everyone that met her liked her...
That Friday night Jennifer and Adam went to bed WITHOUT the usual love making. They were both very tired so decided to give each other a ‘break’. Jennifer went to sleep in her own bed and Adam decided to sleep in Sophie’s bed. Jennifer would change all the sheets in the morning and they both would give the whole place a clean up before Sophie and Rhea got home ... that was the plan anyway! That plan was disrupted when, at 2:00am Saturday morning, Adam was woken from his sleep by someone...
For some strange reason Jennifer had the impulse to bend down and kiss Adam’s very tight knob as her fingers continued to ‘see’ his under-carriage. That impulse was a fatal mistake. The feel of those gorgeous lips on Adam’s highly aroused penis set things in motion that nobody could have stopped. Adam’s body gave an involuntary thrust forward of the hips forcing his erection right into Jennifer’s mouth. Jennifer forgot where she was for a moment and began flicking the cock in her mouth with...
At exactly 8:30am Sophie and Adam were woken by a very excited Jennifer Jane Belmont bursting into the room. She had a newspaper in front of her face and her naked breasts were heaving up and down in excitement as she gabbled away. “Adam! Adam!” Jennifer was calling. “Adam, you have to read this. The front page of the Newspaper says that this weekend is going to be declared NUDITY FRIENDLY WEEKEND for all businesses and citizens of Cedarcrest.” Jennifer dropped the paper from her face to see...
The pink slip-on shoe was tossed into the car through the open door followed quickly by the second one. Jennifer then undid the thin black belt that encircled her pink skirt at the waist and pulled the zip down on the left hip. She wiggled her hips and let the skirt drop down passed her knees and on to the ground. She stepped quickly out of that skirt then picked it up and lightly removed some small twigs the skirt had collected from the ground. The garment was then folded up neatly and...
The rest of the evening proceeded smoothly with everyone eating way too much cake and probably drinking a little too much beer. Rhea got some lovely presents from her friends and a very nice digital camera from Jennifer and Adam. The last gift presented to Rhea was an envelope from her mother. Inside were her acceptance papers and receipts for a full four years tuition at Blanke Schande College when she finished High School. There was also a little pile of gift vouchers that Rhea could use at...
Once Jennifer and Adam had left Sophie’s bedroom Sophie picked up the newspaper and took it across the hall to Rhea’s room. Rhea was awake but still lying in bed. She was about to get up and have a shower when her mother came in. Sophie read the article about the NUDITY FRIENDLY WEEKEND and told Rhea that she was going to go out for breakfast with Jennifer and Jennifer’s boyfriend Adam. They were all going to go out in the nude then go shopping afterwards before coming home ... and all still...
Jennifer, Adam, Sophie and Rhea had all been to Pete’s Pancake House before on many occasions before but today was so totally different that it might as well have been for the first time. The place was full of naked people and those naked people fitted all descriptions. Whole families had turned up in the nude to enjoy a hearty breakfast before beginning their day’s naked activities. Even the Granddads and Grandmas were joining in and enjoying the nudity with their families and nobody seemed...
Once in the shower Rhea and Adam had great fun cleaning each other up ... rubbing their wet, soapy hands all over each others wet slippery bodies as well as having lots of wet cuddles and long sensuous kisses under all that warm tumbling water. Eventually the two freshly scented, naked bodies descended the stairs to join the other naked girls lying about in Adam’s sitting room. “Well, was it all worth it?” said one of the smiling girls to Rhea. “Totally!” said Rhea in a very loud voice....
Angela spent nearly two weeks wrapping things up. Most days, Frank and Angela talked long on the phone, and Frank helped her through the estate and funeral legalities, remembering his own experience when his parents died. Frank flew out for two days to attend Terrence's funeral and help with packing. The funeral was one of the most depressing events Frank had ever attended. The weather was cold and damp. Angela was red-eyed. Jennifer was completely silent and stone-faced as she huddled in...
That December we received an invitation to Robert and Megan Stanwick's house for a Christmas party. This would be the second party at the Stanwick's since Robert became Jennifer's manager. Thursday evening, the night before the party Jennifer was trying to find something to wear and asked me, "What should I wear tomorrow night?" I said, "Something short and clingy, showing lots of cleavage. You need to look sexy tomorrow." Jennifer gave me a quizzical look and asked, "Why?" I...
On Jennifer's birthday, about two years after our experiment with swinging, Jennifer made a shocking and very unusual request. I had taken her out to dinner and dancing earlier that evening and when we got home I had given Jennifer her present, an opal ring. "Remember when we went to that swingers club on vacation a couple of years ago?" We were in bed, naked, and Jennifer was slowly stroking my cock and kissing and flicking her tongue over the head. I said, "How could I...
November 1978 Thanksgiving week had only three days of school, but a lot happened. On Monday, Brent asked Beth out on a date and she accepted. When she told me about it, I was happy for her. She was a bit disappointed that it meant the end of our physical relationship, but she knew my rule. On Tuesday, Petra Johansson asked me if I was interested in coming to a St. Lucia party on December 13th. She would be making «pepparkakor» (‘ginger cookies’) and «Lussekatter» (‘saffron buns’) and...
“Hey what’s up?” Came the text. Jennifer might be an amazing woman, but she was still a 20 something. I didn’t really care for texting all that much, but it was a necessarily evil. A week had passed since my adventure at the club with Rochelle and 2 weeks since I had seen Jennifer. I was beginning to miss her and I was happy to hear from her. “How’s it going? Things ok with the roommate?” I asked. “Yup. I’ve got news.” came the reply. “Call me.” I said. Jennifer called me. “So what’s...
May 1979 The limo dropped me at home about 9:00pm. I took my stuff to my room, stripped, and hung up the tux. The rest of the things went into the hamper. I took a shower, put on shorts and a t-shirt, and walked down the hall into my dad’s office. I saw no reason to put this off any longer. “Stephen, you need to explain yourself!” my mom demanded. “I was in Mrs. McGrath’s, well, Mrs. Sanders’ now, wedding, as I said.” “You walked her down the aisle! You’re sixteen and not even related to...
Jennifer had never known her dad, since he'd left before she was born. But she'd always wanted to find him. And, now that she had finally gotten her driver's license, she'd done just that. She'd tracked him down over the internet and discovered that he was a mechanic, living in a town that was only two hours from her home. So today she had set out to connect with him and now, now she sat staring at him, watching him work. "He's definitely handsome", she remarked, understanding why her...
For the second time in two days, the doorbell rang as Jennifer was stepping out of the shower. She wrapped a towel around her body and went to the intercom. The video from the front door wasn't all that clear but Jennifer was able to tell it was her brother Donnie. She pressed the 'talk' button. "Just a minute," she said. Jennifer ran a comb through her wet hair as she looked at herself in the mirror. The towel she was wearing was big enough to cover from the tops of her breasts to...
It was hard to believe, but for a week after my swinger’s club adventure with Jill, I didn’t want to even think about sex. Going to an orgy is such a sensory overload that my balls ached just thinking about sex. It was lucky for me that things got very busy for me at work and I was often at the office very late. My phone was constantly blowing up from Rochelle, Jill and Jennifer and I had a reasonable excuse to push them off. Finally after two weeks, my libido was beginning to return and my...
The three of them had been though a lot. Was it only Thursday? Jennifer wondered to herself. She looked at Betty and realized that Betty had become family. She knew that both she and Betty had changed drastically. They had met themselves and, to her shock, she liked who she met. She looked at Paul and knew he was now the center of their world and always would be. She began to feel the heat again between her legs. She had NEVER in her life been so frequently aroused. It was embarrassing only...
November 1978 On Sunday morning I was surprised to find Stephanie awake when I went to swim. She joined me and swam laps with me, though she only completed about half as many as I did. We got out, and I was relieved that she didn’t try to follow me to the shower. I expected that someday, though probably at some point, before she was ready to make her request. She joined me for breakfast as well. “Going to see Melanie today?” “That’s the plan, Squirt. I’m just waiting for her mom to call...
August 1978 I woke up on Sunday morning refreshed. I swam my usual laps, showered, dressed and made breakfast. Following Jennifer’s advice, I made waffles, sausage, and eggs. Stephanie came into the kitchen while I was preparing everything and asked if I’d make her breakfast as well. We ate together, then she went to get ready for church. I put on jeans and a polo, and grabbed my fedora. I was sitting on the couch wondering what Jennifer had in mind when I saw Melanie pull into the...
November 1978 I wasn’t totally sure about Jennifer’s plan, but I’d decided to go with it. Something about having a third, or fourth, person involved turned loose a wild side in Jennifer that made her a very different person. We had discussed it somewhat, but we would need to talk about it further, especially if she went through with her plan. I woke up early, as was my habit, swam, showered, and ate breakfast. I only saw Stephanie briefly as we passed in the hallway before she left for...
"Oh shit!" said Jennifer, as she hugged the towel around her and jumped up from the couch. "It's mother ... quick, out the back door. She can't know you've been here." By the time Jennifer's mother came in from the garage, Donnie was long gone, into the woods at the back of the house, and Jennifer was in her bathroom getting dressed. "Jennifer ... I'm home," Judy Grafton hollered. "In here Mom ... I'll be out as soon as I dry my hair," Jennifer replied. Her mother had...
July 1980, Milford, Ohio When we arrived at Jennifer’s house, her mom was home. She greeted me, but Jennifer dragged me to the basement before a conversation could start. We sat on the couch. “So you want to know who I am?” she asked. “Yes, I do. Everything. Get it all out on the table, whatever it is.” She sat quietly for several minutes, just looking at me, as if she was evaluating me. She was clearly trying to decide what to say and how to say it. I wasn’t going to rush her because I...
December 1978 On Friday, Stephanie and I did our usual morning routine and then I worked on the programs for Doctor Grossi. I had figured out how to make the connections between the pets and the owners and was working on a way to create invoices. I was confident that we’d have it working well enough for him to test it by the end of January. Joyce arrived to pick me up at 5:00pm for our date. We deviated from our usual pattern in that we didn’t make love before she cooked and we ate....
July 1978 I awoke Sunday morning having slept well. That was a good thing, considering what I thought Jennifer had planned. But I did have my own ideas of how we should handle our first lovemaking since we broke up. I swam, showered, and ate breakfast, then did my chores and wrote in my journal. I was still missing Birgit, even though the feelings were not as stark as they had been. It seemed each passing day I was having more positive thoughts about her and less emotional pain. As much as...
March 1979 Melanie got the cast off her arm the first week in March. She had several fairly ugly scars on her forearm where the surgery had been done. Her arm was pretty weak, and she’d need quite a bit of physical therapy. She still tired easily, but otherwise seemed to be doing well. Kathy Will continued to be nice to me, but I wasn’t doing anything more than being nice back. She made it very clear what she wanted, but I wasn’t interested. I asked Jennifer about her thoughts on a date...
November 1978 I woke up on Saturday before sunrise. I read for a while, and once I heard my dad up, I went for my swim. I showered, got dressed, and went to get breakfast. I was sitting at the table and Stephanie came in to get her breakfast. She sat down and smiled at me and winked. A wink that conveyed a novel full of words. I just rolled my eyes. She crossed her arms and stared at me. I stuck my tongue out at her, knowing she was waiting for that. I’d let her have her thrill. “Do I get...
July 1978 I woke early as normal on Wednesday, swam my laps, showered, and ate breakfast. Stephanie and Vickie were up just before I left. Vickie gave me a big smile and Stephanie just shook her head. I got my bike from the garage and pedaled to the deli. As soon as I walked in, Andreas called me to his office. This only happened when something was changing. “Steve, we’re going to start opening an hour earlier. And I will have more things for you to do. Do you have a friend who would like a...
November 1978 The next week went along quickly. I was making A’s in Spanish along with all my other classes, so missing my tutoring with Melanie wasn’t really causing any trouble. We’d reached a point where it usually just involved her checking my homework and helping me study for tests. I talked to Beth and told her I wasn’t able to keep our programming date for Sunday, and she accepted an invitation from me for a make-up day a week from Saturday. The Student Council had agreed to our...
May 28, 1979 — Memorial Day I woke up feeling refreshed, having slept deeply. Stephanie joined me in the pool after several weeks of enforced absence and we ate breakfast together. We hung out for the rest of the morning playing pool and just sitting and talking. It was clear she was going to miss me. I had no doubt I would miss her terribly. Melanie arrived to pick me up around 11:00am for the Memorial Day Cookout at her house. The way she was looking at me made me think that I was the...
November 1978 I woke up Monday morning feeling uneasy about everything. The last week had brought to the surface some kind of problem with Jennifer. I couldn’t put my finger on what was wrong. I knew she was unhappy with Melanie. Her visceral reaction to Melanie was similar to her original reaction to Becky. It made me wonder if the same would come for Joyce at some time. What would I do in that case? I could understand better if Jennifer hadn’t refused my offer of a promise ring. I had...
March 1978 Andreas arrived about 7:40am on Saturday. We loaded the TRS-80 into his trunk and then we drove to the deli. We’d go to demonstrate the programs around 2:00pm. That was the quietest time, and Kim would be able to handle any customers that did show up. Jennifer couldn’t come for lunch today, but I’d see her that evening. She’d told me in no uncertain terms what she wanted for dessert! Kim teased me about Jennifer not being there. I pointed out that I was seeing her tonight and...
November-December 1978 I woke up Monday as usual and got my trunks. Stephanie was waiting for me, which came as no surprise. We swam our laps, with me again outpacing her. I was sure in a few months she’d be able to keep up. We walked down the hall and she smirked and started to follow me into my room. I decided this was a chance to practice setting limits that Jennifer and I had discussed. “Stephanie, no!” I said firmly, but gently. “We’re not ready for this yet. You’re not. I’m not. We...
December 1978 On Monday, Kathy Will found me and giddily agreed to my terms and asked when I’d do it with her. I told her that I still thought it was a bad idea. She was desperate. “Steve, I’ll do anything you want if I can have just one more night where we do it three or four times. Anything. Please?” “I don’t think it’s a good idea,” I said firmly. “No.” “Nobody ever says ‘no’! Now you’ve said ‘no’ twice!” “That’s right.” “Fuck you, Steve Adams!” she growled angrily and stormed...
June-July 1978 On Tuesday I had my appointment with Doctor Mercer. I gave her new pages from my journal, but not the one from the previous night. I’d give that to her next week, after she spoke with Bethany. I didn’t want the fact that I had sex with Anna to color Dr Mercer’s opinion of me. We spent most of the session discussing my emotions, after I’d explained I’d moed from sadness to anger. After that discussion, it seemed to me that she was OK with a shift to anger. She asked about...
"That was rough, I'm sure," said Jennifer. "Yeah ... well it's been brewing ever since Dad and I moved out," Donnie said. "I just wasn't ready to admit it." "Uh huh ... me too ... I mean ... uh ... You were talking about us weren't you." "Of course," Donnie said emphatically. "Can we go in the house?" Jennifer looked into Donnie's eyes. "Kiss me first ... like you did when you took the ball away." Donnie took a step toward Jennifer, narrowing the distance between them....
January-February 1979 At lunch on Monday, people started getting their sheets and there was chaos as many people discovered that their boyfriend or girlfriend wasn’t on their list, and some rival of theirs was on their boyfriend’s or girlfriend’s list. I found it amusing. I saw Melanie laughing hard when she got her list. I walked over to her. “Steve, I love you. Thanks!” “You’re welcome.” “Did you run a real sheet for me?” I pulled it out of my pocket and said, “Your first match is a...
July 1980, Milford, Ohio We arrived at Jennifer’s house to find it empty. “Dad’s at work and Mom’s out shopping. She’ll be home for dinner.” “So, what did you have in mind? We have a lot to catch up on.” “Sex and talking! I prefer sex first! It’s been a year since I was with you last!” “I did promise to fuck you silly, if I recall correctly! In every possible way; and no hole left untouched.” “You did. But you know what? Right now, I just want you to make love to me. Like the very first...
March 1985, Chicago, Illinois The rest of Sunday, the last day of March, was calm and relaxing. I had wanted to watch the NASCAR race at Bristol on ESPN, but it had rained all afternoon in Tennessee and the race was postponed a week. It wasn’t usual for NASCAR to race on Easter weekend, but they would this year, though on Saturday instead of Sunday. Bill Elliott had won his second race of the year in Atlanta two weeks previously, and was looking strong. Most of my housemates left for home...
My wife Jennifer and I have been married for nearly 15 years. We have what I consider a perfect marriage. That's not to say we never have disagreements or get crabby with each other. We do, but it's generally short-lived and due to fatigue on one of our parts. Although we don't have all the same interests, we have the same core values, and I firmly believe that's what determines a couple's compatibility. I would describe our sex life as very good and I hope Jennifer would do the same. Although...
August 1978 Things did go back to normal on Monday. Jennifer and I talked, and she seemed to be more like her old self. I wondered just how often she’d need something like this. I suspected she’d want something different before I left for Sweden. I wondered if I would survive. We would need to talk about this, but it seemed we both needed some time to think about what had happened. August moved right along. Jennifer and I went on dates and made love gently every time. I saw Joyce as well —...
August 1978 When we had brought the computer home, I had started to take the boxes to my room to set up. My mom stopped me. “We bought that, and it’s not to go in your room. Everyone needs to be able to use it. Set it up in your dad’s office.” I knew what had happened without even being told. Jeff was trying to interfere and cause trouble. This was par for the course. I am sure he told her that it wasn’t ‘fair’ if I had the computer in my room. I knew arguing with Mom would do me no good....
June 1978 On Wednesday morning, I noticed Mary’s name written in my ‘little black book’ for Thursday. She had written that in herself before she gave it to me as a gift. I wasn’t up for it, really. As much fun as Mary was, it wasn’t what I needed now. There likely would never be a repeat of the ‘love making’ from last time, and I wasn’t sure it would be a good idea, anyway. It ran the risk of stirring up dangerous feelings. She had Ben, so I hoped she wouldn’t be upset. Work went the way it...
September 29, 1991, Milford, Ohio “Thanks for everything, Steve,” Bethany said after I’d buckled Jesse into his car seat. “You’re welcome. And thank you, as well. I very much enjoyed last night.” “Me, too!” she giggled. We hugged tightly, I kissed her, and then got into the car. I started the engine, put the car in reverse, and backed out of the driveway. With a wave, Jesse and I began our drive back to Chicago. “I thought you and Aunt Befany weren’t kissing!” he protested. I suppressed...
June 1978 I woke up early on Sunday morning, feeling good for the second day in a row. I decided I was going to go to church as well. There was something positive about sitting in church that I couldn’t quite put my finger on. After church, I did my chores and then pedaled over to Bethany’s house for lunch. Her dad made hot dogs and hamburgers on the grill and I ate two of each. Bethany laughed when I had the second hot dog after I’d already had two burgers and a hot dog. “I’m a growing...
November 1978 On Monday, I asked Jennifer to eat with me privately. I had two things I really needed to discuss with her, and both of them involved her directly and indirectly. There wasn’t really a spot in the lunchroom, but I had a key to the computer lab, and it wasn’t used during lunch, so we went in there to eat. I figured if Mr. Herbers objected, I could explain it to him. “So, what’s up?” Jennifer asked. “Two things — Joyce and Stephanie.” “Oh, this should be good!” she...
March 1979 Monday was back to the normal routine of school. Debbie Courtney, who lived across the street and had turned fourteen the last week in February, started flirting more with me on the bus each day. Debbie Vaughn, who lived just down the street, would turn fourteen on March 16th and invited me to her birthday party. And Donna Woody, who lived just down the street in the other direction, would turn fourteen on March 20th. She had made it clear what she wanted for her birthday, and in...
If you have read my earlier stories you will know that an erotic massage in Phuket by a woman during which I climaxed led me, on my return home to Sydney, to explore online. I was intrigued that at 40, I was for the first time turned on by thoughts of sex with a woman.While I would have easily taken some of my new online relationships into the real world, no one was in Australia. That geographical barrier was also an important psychological barrier keeping my online and real world nicely...
TabooJuly 1978 Friday was a completely normal day at the deli, and Jennifer and Melanie joined me for lunch. When they found out I didn’t have plans for that evening, they suggested dinner. I agreed, and after work we went to a diner and had a great time, renewing our mutual friendship. It was clear that the girls had spoken about what they wanted, and I was reasonably sure what they had decided. I planned to talk to Jennifer about it after dinner on Sunday. On Saturday, I left home a few...
July 1978 Monday was the start of Summer school. I had arranged with Andreas to start work at 1:00pm and work until 5:00pm, and on Tuesday and Thursday I’d go straight from work to Doctor Mercer’s, because she had made special arrangements for me. I had been looking forward to this class for months. There were twelve of us in the class. Larry, of course; Ralph and Ken from the chess team; Napoleon McCallum, who was a jock, but also a great student; Beth Pater, one of the smartest girls in...
October-November 1978 On Saturday, Jennifer joined me for lunch at work. Melanie had called her on Friday night. “So, she asked. She told me she agreed to the ground rules you set. She told me she had written Pete as well, and that he wrote back.” “Then it’s up to you, Jen.” “Do you want to do this?” “I agreed to it. It’s really a question of you and what you need. Is inviting Melanie to share us something you can deal with? Will it hurt our relationship as you see it? Do you think she...
November 1978 During my usual morning routine of swimming, shower, and breakfast, I mulled over my thoughts from the previous day. I saw three very distinct futures with three very distinct lives. If I had to characterize them simply, Joyce represented stability, Jennifer adventure, and Becky passion. Each girl had a mix of those traits, but each one was dominant in one of them. I had no doubt that each of them would make a wonderful wife and mother, but each represented a far different...
June 1979 The second week of Summer school was much like the first — busy. I was doing homework and studying for tests every night. Three things of note happened that week. On Tuesday, Jennie Sanders called me. I told her what had happened with my mom and that my mom suspected us of having sex. I told her exactly what I had said to my mom and left it to her to decide what to say about her reasons. She was a bit upset, but said she could handle it. On Wednesday, Bethany stopped me in the...
