Ch. 3
The next morning Janet awoke to the feel of Charles' hand gently rubbing up and down the inside of her thighs. Instantly she felt overwhelmed with lust. Her pussy began to flood and she rolled on top of Charles and kissed him deeply while reaching for his hard member. Within thirty seconds she was helping him find her opening and they were making love with an intensity that surprised both of them. Afterwards as they lay holding each other and letting their breathing return to normal, Janet could hear one of the other couples also engaged in loving activity. But as she lay there she began to almost brood and by the time she and Charles got up and headed downstairs she was quiet and, if not sullen, at least hesitant and largely unnoticing of the rest of the world.
The other two couples were in the kitchen just making some toast and tea. Barb looked subdued much as Janet was and both Charles and James looked a little concerned and puzzled. Breakfast was quiet until finally Liz asked, "How long did you say we could use this place?"
Rick answered, "Joe finishes up Saturday afternoon and we have to have the keys back to him by about three. So I guess, if everyone wants, we can stay a couple of more nights."
The men both said that that sounded fine and Liz said, "Great." Barb and Janet smiled slightly and nodded, but without showing any real interest. Watching them, Liz decided she needed to find out what was the matter. "After all," she thought, "the men are probably too dense to notice anything wrong." She said, "Then I guess we'll need a little more food. Rick, why don't you go into town and pick up some stuff and we'll clean things up here."
"OK," Rick responded. "Who wants to come?"
James and Charles looked ready to leave and then hesitated as James said, "Maybe we should stay here and help the girls."
Liz quickly broke in, "No, you two go on. We can handle things and, besides, we need to get ourselves all pretty for you."
Barb and Janet looked slightly puzzled by this remark. None of the women ever spent a lot of time on hair or make up. For one thing they didn't really need to and for another there were so many more interesting things to do with life. But they seemed to be too preoccupied with themselves to really wonder about it.
When she heard the van pull out of the clearing and start down the gravel road, Liz turned to the other two and said, "All right, girls. Are you upset over what happened last night? You know it was just letting off steam. Are you thinking there's something wrong with what we did, because if you are, we don't have to let anything like that happen again. Janet, you look really down about it. Do you feel you got into something that turned you off or felt dirty or something?"
Janet looked up at her and slowly shook her head. In a quiet, miserable voice she said, "That's not it, Liz. You must have noticed how I felt and I don't know what you're really thinking about me now. I loved it! I've never been so turned on in my life as when I was getting spanked, naked and tied, with everyone watching. And when Charles kissed me afterwards it was all I could do to keep from raping him right there in front of all of you. I never thought I was that kind of girl, but I can't seem to deny it."
Barb's head snapped up and she broke in, "You mean you felt like that, too? I thought I was the only one and I was terrified what you two would think of me."
Janet looked at her, astounded. Liz looked totally surprised and then almost had to stifle a laugh. "Is that what's been bothering you? Look, Jan and Barb, that's just natural. I felt the same. Think about it a second. Would you be turned on if the same thing had happened in front of a bunch of strangers?"
Both girls shook their heads and Liz went on, "Of course not. You two - or even me, for that matter - you two are not the 'stripper' type. You were turned on because what was happening to you was incredibly sexy and you enjoy sharing things with your friends. If we'd been with anyone else, not only would we not have enjoyed anything like that, but it would never have happened in the first place. Sure, some of it was just letting off steam after the pressure of the last few weeks and maybe even a little of it was the wine, but that was just the trigger. You know we - all six of us - like to make sexy remarks and raunchy suggestions and no one's ever thought anything bad about that." Again both girls nodded, now attentively hanging on each of Liz's words. "Look, there are people who would say we were bad, or even evil, for the things we did, but there are also a lot of people who think kissing or dancing or especially sex is also evil. If they want to live their lives like that, I don't care, but I don't have to believe they are more right in their beliefs than I am."
"You two both know that I'm an only child. My parents grew up during the late sixties. You know the 'free love revolution' and everything. Well, Mom and I have always been close and we talked about a lot of things. Among them was sex and what she did when she was my age. You've heard a lot of talk about the sixties, about how everyone in college used drugs and was into free sex, and so on. Well, there was some of that, but not nearly as much as you've probably been led to believe. For example, less than half of the college students then used any kind of drug, including pot. And there really wasn't as much 'free love' as everyone talks about. What did happen then, however, was that people became less afraid to talk about things. Just about as many couples had sex before marriage during the forties and fifties as during the sixties and seventies. There was maybe a little more because of the pill, but not a lot. But people were not quite as reluctant to talk about it. And one thing this did was to let people know that they weren't different after all. A lot of what really made the sixties revolution was just that things weren't kept hidden as much. Take skinny dipping. Most kids who grew up in the country had been swimming naked and in mixed groups. But no one talked about it. After the sixties people felt that this wasn't something they had to keep hidden. There's even a picture in a National Geographic book about the Appalachian Trail my parents have that shows a mixed group of backpackers splashing naked under a waterfall."
"All of us really enjoy sex. Right?" Again both girls nodded. "Well, we share other things we like to do. I'm not saying having sex is the same as eating pizza or such, but we all like each other and we like being able to talk about things without worrying if someone is going to think badly of us if we tell a dirty joke or make an off color remark. We're all happy, rather than jealous, when one of us has something go right. We like to be able to share things. Think about how you felt when you found out that others of us had tried some of the kinky sex stuff. It felt good to be able to talk about it and when someone found out a new technique, we all wanted to share it, right? Well, last night wasn't really any different, was it?"
Janet spoke at last. "It was just that I felt that there had to be something wrong with me for enjoying being watched. You're right that I wouldn't want anyone else watching, but I didn't mind if James or Rick saw me naked. It was a real turn on, just like looking at them was. I still love Charles and I don't think he's ready to give me up despite your magnificent body, Liz." The grin took any malice from the remark and Liz grinned back. "In fact, as long as you two, or the men, don't look down on me for it, I wouldn't even mind repeating the whole thing again tonight."
Barb was getting over her stunned look and added, "I feel pretty much the same way. I was sure I had to be sick and was almost ready to try to get James to talk you into going back today. But I'll admit I've never had a night as sexy as yesterday."
Liz grinned at them. "Well, I expect the guys are a little apprehensive that they got you into something you didn't really want to do last night. Maybe if you really feel you want to keep our, shall I say, more open atmosphere, we ought to do something to show the guys it's OK."
Barb and Janet both really smiled for the first time. "What did you have in mind?" Janet asked.
When the van pulled back up to the cabin, the three men got out and carried several more bags inside and into the kitchen. "Where are they?" Charles asked. "The place sounds empty."
"Probably outside," Rick answered. Let's get the stuff that needs it into the refrigerator and then go look for them."
They quickly put the food away and then headed out the back door. As soon as they were outside they could hear the girls down by the lake. They quickly went down the path and as they emerged onto the dock they saw all three women in the water and clinging to the edge of the wood. "Hi," Barb said. "It was getting hot and we decided to go for a swim."
Janet pulled herself up onto the dock and said, "Want to join us?"
The men seemed too frozen to answer as all three pairs of eyes stared at Janet. She was completely naked and made no attempt to cover herself. Just then Liz and Barb pulled themselves up onto the wood and stood next to Janet. Both were equally nude and unconcerned with it.
As the men stared, Barb grinned and said, "I think the males can't handle the sight of all our beauty. Just look at them."
"Well, then maybe we should give them a better view," Janet responded. The three women raised their arms and clasped their hands behind their heads and turned, bent, and wiggled themselves at the men.
Finally Rick broke the silence and said, "By all means. Come on, guys, let's join them." With that he began to strip, followed by the other two men.
For the next hour the six again played in the lake, splashing, feeling, and necking a little with their own partners. Finally they got out of the water and the girls picked up some large beach towels they had brought down with them. They used the towels to dry both themselves and their men and then, wrapping the towels around the two of them, the couples started back to the cabin with their arms around each other. When they got inside, each couple made their way to the beds they had used the previous night and soon the cabin was once more filled with the sounds of sex.
An hour later the two couples upstairs heard Rick and Liz move into the kitchen and took that as a sign that they were ready for company. A few minutes later they emerged from the bedrooms and made their way downstairs where they found Liz and Rick starting to get some lunch together. Everyone was once again dressed in shorts and shirts and everyone acted as though nothing unusual had happened.
While they were eating, Liz asked, "What do people want to do this afternoon?"
Charles immediately started, "I know what I want to do."
Janet interrupted him with, "Me, too, but we probably ought to let ourselves rest a little."
