OK, so I held a party for some friends, including my three best friends. And apparently quite a bit happened out in my perverted older brother's caravan over the course of that weekend. But that's - ugh - fine, because quite a bit happened back in the house as well. It was a bit of an awakening, I have to tell you! And I learned a lot about my best friends. And about myself. Anyway, you'll see.
It all kicked off with the trampoline. I mean, some stuff happened at the party, but nothing major, but then everyone went home, and the only people left were my crew. My gang. The best people in the world. Marnie, April and Catherine. And we were all pretty sloshed, and it was a warm night, and we were hanging out on the trampoline, shooting the shit and just enjoying each other's company.
Catherine and I were headed to uni after the holidays - me to Monash, her to Canberra. Marnie was going to Europe on a gap year, and April had an internship at Vogue in Sydney, so we were determined to make the most of this last weekend together.
I was incredibly annoyed that my dickhead brother was home. Mum and Dad were in America on holiday, but this reject was here to spoil my weekend. I mean, yeah, fine, he's actually not that bad, but I knew that he had a thing for Catherine and I knew Marnie had a thing for him. And he just annoyed April, but I could tell she thought he was cute anyway.
And he'd be in and out of that drug den of his, and being all helpful and friendly and... yeah, I shouldn't complain so much.
He stayed in the van until everyone who was going home had gone home and then stepped out, surrounded by a cloud of smoke and headed into the house, presumably for munchies.
"I'm going to fuck that guy," Marnie said, staring at him as he wandered off. The rest of us responded in varying levels of horror.
"Oh gross," said April.
"Marnie, you shocker!" said Catherine.
"Nope," I said, "Just nope. You'd want to talk about it, and I just don't need that sort of information."
"We'll see," Marnie said, and then hopped off the trampoline, dragging Catherine with her as he came out of the van and she went over to hassle him about weed.
I ignored them for awhile, but Marnie was poking her breasts out and my brother was flirting with Catherine and I could feel the snarl forming when Marnie hugged him and returned, holding a bag of weed.
My sulk evaporated when Marnie told us that she'd made out with a girl earlier in the evening. And that led to a contest as to whose breasts were the best, which led to me touching Marnie's gorgeous breasts for the first time. Any woman's breasts for the first time. And they were glorious, slightly larger than mine, with dark pink, pointed nipples. I pretended to be clinical about it, thoughtfully squeezing her breast and rubbing the nipple. But I was in awe at the warmth and smoothness of her and I could smell her excitement, and wanted nothing more than to just kiss her and roll around on the trampoline, exploring her gorgeous body.
And then April moved in beside me and took my other hand and slid it up onto her exposed breast, and my breath stopped as I was intoxicated by the sensation of the two women, two of my best friends, wriggling under my touch and obviously enjoying it.
April slid a hand from my thigh up to my neck and pulled my mouth down to her nipple. Catherine had moved onto the trampoline to start stroking Marnie. I tasted April's nipple and flicked it with my tongue as my hands roamed over her incredible, lithe body. She gasped as my fingers trailed down over her ass and I gave her a playful squeeze, feeling anything but playful. But this was all so new and couching desire in play seemed the safest way. Catherine was kissing Marnie and then nuzzling her neck and I suddenly thought just how exciting this would be for my brother if he happened to look out the window of his caravan right now, but when I looked back there was only darkness from the window and then April's hand was on my belly and sliding south and I just didn't care any more.
We broke it up before it went much further, giggling and pronouncing the winners, and only Marnie seemed to want to take it much further. She was lying back on the trampoline with one hand between her legs and her light cotton dress was the only thing that she was wearing and she stared up at us with half-lidded eyes and said.
"Now onto the pussy taste test."
I was so tempted. Why not take it further? But then I looked back at the caravan and the partly open curtain and blanched. April giggled and the others joined in and we decided that more competitions could wait. Marnie looked disappointed but joined us as we headed back into the house - not without giving herself a little bit more pleasure first.
We performed our evening rituals, changed into night-shirts and all four of us flopped down on the huge mattress in the living room that we had decided would be our bed for this final weekend. Snuggled together, we dozed off, one by one.
But lying between me and April, I could feel the regular motion of Marnie's hand between her legs and hear her panting as she finished what she started out on the trampoline.

When I woke up the next morning I was hot from lying too close to three girls on a hot summer night and annoyed at the realisation that we had no coffee in the house that wasn't instant. And then further annoyed because someone was playing the piano in the loungeroom. I sat up. Marnie and April were still fast asleep. Catherine was nowhere to be seen.
I rolled off the mattress and wandered through the kitchen and towards the loungeroom and piano playing. I paused at the door and peered in to watch Catherine. She was always so elegant at the piano. But instead of one elegant girl, I saw one half-naked brother and one friend, her shirt riding up her ass and her eyes glued on whatever was happening in my brother's pants.
I felt a flush of jealousy. I knew my brother had a thing for Catherine, but I didn't think that it was reciprocated. And I didn't want him taking up time with her on this, my last weekend with my best friend.
"What the fuck do you think you're doing?" I demanded, storming into the room. They both jumped, and my brother obviously was rearranging things down below. Catherine's face was flushed pink and not from the heat. My brother hastily offered to go get us coffee and left, keeping his crotch aimed away from me. Catherine headed to the kitchen, letting her t-shirt fall back into place as she stood.
"What was that?" I asked her, as she splashed her face and drank a glass of water. She tilted her head at me.
"We were just playing the piano. Nobody else was up. Your brother is sweet."
"Sweet and horny," I grumbled. "And he just can't take his eyes off you."
"Really?" Catherine asked, her eyes suddenly interested. I sighed.
"Just for this weekend, can it be just about the four of us?"
"Of course, Ella," Catherine said, and moved in for a hug. I kissed her quickly on the neck and then pulled back to smile at her.
"Let's get the others up and we can go out shopping."
"Once we're caffeinated."
"Once we're caffeinated," I agreed.
