That day when Erica returned to her husband having completed her visit with her sister, Vivian took stock of her and her own situation. She naturally wished the best for her sister, and fervently hoped that her marriage could be repaired. Matt English was certainly a great guy and seemed like the makings of a good husband for Erica. Vivian knew that Erica loved him and was desirous of being a good wife for him. Certainly she intended to willingly remain faithful to her marriage wows notwithstanding her past promiscuous and wild single life.
Actually Erica and Vivian had similar life ambitions which explained away their licentious behavior while they were young. Both of them believed they would settle down and lead serious no nonsense steadfast lives once they would become mature older adults. Erica's goals were to emulate her parents and marry a farmer. Vivian wanted to become a professional, in particular a lawyer.
In Erica's case presumably her serious life began with her marriage to Matthew English. She was pregnant, Matthew was going to inherit the family farm and she had had her fun. Unfortunately Erica suffered a miscarriage shortly after the wedding, and since then had not gotten pregnant again. And just like that Erica's fulfillment of her perceived and desired destiny had seemingly derailed.
As Erica had intimated that had she not been pregnant the problem of her present infertility would have been a mutual problem where remedies could have been explored. But now her past profligate conduct had come to bite her in the ass. It now appears that Matt was beginning to suspect that Erica's child had not been his and it also seems that he now harbors the mortifying apprehension that he may be impotent. Such a dilemma defies easy solutions.
Although the sex between Vivian and Erica had been remarkably spontaneous, still Erica's need for an outlet to counter her marital woes was an obvious factor that contributed to their incestuous lesbian activity on this occasion. Therefore Vivian chalked up this incident as a genuine consoling gesture on her part to alleviate the distress her sister was experiencing. However, there was no denying the uninhibited sexual joy and euphoria that she enjoyed while comforting Erica in her hour of need.
This led Vivian to some introspection of exactly what her sexual nature really was. When she first met John Jay Hooker she cavalierly admitted to being bi-sexual. She knew she made that admission since her affair with Erin Falconbridge was common knowledge amongst her acquaintances. So there was no point in maintaining that she was unequivocally straight even though she believed that was her main desire and proclivity.
But now Vivian wondered if she was being honest with herself. There was no denying that her affair with Erin was very romantic and that they had a great time together besides the sex. She had up to now considered that Erin's protection of her against the vicious bullying in high school was the catalyst for their affair. But that then does not explain that they were together for most of her freshman year at UW where she did not need protection from bullying. Then there was the question of the sex she had with her sister.
First of all Vivian had been ignorant of the possibility of lesbianism sex until Erica explained it all to her during the time when she was ill from mononucleosis. She then had a threesome sex with Matt and Erica and the sex was a blast. She had some sex with her sister prior to Erica marrying, but she viewed that as sexual experimenting; not to be taken seriously.
But the sex this time with Erica was a different kettle of fish. Yes she could pretend it was simply an act of kindness but she realized that there was more to it. She could honestly say to herself that she did not love Erica carnally as she had with Erin. Her love for Erica was a genuine sisterly love without any desire to embark on a lesbian incestuous relationship.
Vivian now realized that what was intriguing her about further sex with Erica had to be the possibility of participating in group sex. When Erica suggested she might visit her in Madison and would want to indulge in sex with Khalil and Nigel, Vivian had been naturally appalled. However her negative reaction had nothing to do with aversion to the activity itself, but was prompted by the implication that Erica's marriage was in trouble. Now that she was fully privy to Erica's problems she was in an emotional quandary.
As a loving sister, Vivian genuinely wanted the best outcome for Erica. If her sister could patch up her marital problems, that by definition would be the best outcome. However Erica had indicated that if her marriage becomes beyond repair she might be prepared to engage in some wild sex as a palliative to her misery. In particular she suggested a foursome with Nigel and Khalil, Vivian's main fuck buddies in her sophomore year.
Given Vivian's slattern proclivities, the notion of engaging in group sex with Erica appealed to her libido. Since she had already done a threesome with Erica and her then boyfriend and now husband, she knew that like her, Erica had no jealous bone in her body with respect to sharing one or more lovers. Thus her unconstrained lust would be satisfied free from any possible enviousness that might occur with a monopolizing competing female.
Vivian also knew that Nigel had come to terms with her sluttishness and the same had never been an issue with Khalil. So she felt that the guys would have no problem to agreeing to do a foursome. So the quandary for Vivian in her mind was whether to wish Erica success in reconciling with her husband and therefore her sister would remain faithful to her marriage vows; or whether to wish that her sister's marriage would crash and burn making group sex with her black lovers possible.
Neither she nor Erica gave any consideration to the notion that the night spent in Vivian's barn bedroom was in reality a violation of marital fidelity. Erica had told Matt she would spend the night with Vivian with the expectation they would stay up hours just chatting to catch up on each other's lives. To Erica's mind the sex she had with Vivian was merely a sisterly intimacy that was in no way a factor as to whether her marriage would survive or not.
Keeping all options open, as Vivian subsequently was about to leave for her junior year, she told her sister she wished her luck in repairing her marriage. She further advised that if things became difficult she would be welcome to visit. And Vivian assured Erica, with a wink, that if she did visit that they would certainly have a good time. Erica smiled and wished her sister a successful junior year at UW. The good wishes were accompanied by a wink.
When Vivian did arrive in Madison to start her third undergraduate year, she was fortunate to secure the same basement apartment she had in the previous two years. Her landlady was happy to reserve the suite for her since she was the ideal college tenant; i.e. no troubles, no damage and rent was consistently paid on time. The basement apartment proved to be just perfect for Vivian's purposes.
She vowed that this would be her final partying year. She believed that in her final year she should concentrate more on studying to make sure she would get straight "A" s to ensure acceptance to a superior law school. For this junior year she had scheduled classes that she knew she would ace without too much difficulty. Of course by partying, Vivian had in mind to engage in a hell of a lot of sex. And she was determined to engage in lots of innovative sex. Yes she had available the steady services of Nigel Koeninger and Khalil Ford, but she wanted to broaden her horizons. The most spectacular sexual activity she planned was inspired by one of her classes.
