Chapter 3 - The darkness of the night
Sexual relations with a whole group of people -- five in fact -- yet knowing only to a limited extent with whom he was actually 'relating' at any one time, was just a bit different from Ben's norm. But on holiday things are meant to be different and new -- exploring new places and doing different things -- if your preference is not merely to lie upon the beach and soak up the sun.
Ben had been fingered in the hot tub by probably five different people but had not known who, individually, was doing the fingering, had not even known the sex of the person. He had, though, known whom he was touching and had, indeed, touched all five. A particularly new experience as regards two of them -- Greg and Graham. Exploring 'new places' and doing 'different things,' indeed!
Exploring new places and doing different things was what Ben did the next day. He had already booked himself on a tour before he met Mary and co. and that involved a very busy day of being taken by coach to see all sorts of sights and places. It was only in the evening that he made his way along the water's edge to his new friends' house. He had promised to pop in for a 'nightcap.' In reality, he had been sort of loath to leave the hotel, feeling, as he was, very tired after his busy day and pleasantly full from his dinner, but the walking refreshed him, though it was lucky he had taken a torch. Without a moon, the stars did not give that much light to see by. Certainly not when light cloud slowly moved across the sky. It was obvious they had seen him coming along the lake's shore by the wavering light of his torch.
Calls of greeting but when Ben flashed the torch in the direction of voices he saw naked people by the lake. He dropped the beam.
"We were about to go for a dip. You going to join us?"
Ben had showered after his day trip but was not averse to a swim. He left his now switched off torch with his clothes -- hoping he could find them again in the darkness. It really was dark without the torch.
There was something rather exciting of leaving all his clothes behind and walking stark naked towards a group of voices. New friends, new friends he had been naked with in the hot tub before but not on the lake shore -- at least not with them naked as well. They were naked too, he had seen that - if only briefly. Not enough to determine if they were sexually aroused. But the thought of it, walking towards sexual intimacy - perhaps. Below he felt a stirring which only fuelled his excitement. Walking towards virtual strangers in the warm darkness with his sexual organ somewhat enlarged. Thoughts of warm pussies perhaps already wet. Three pussies and now three cocks. A perfect symmetry! Might there be more than touching -- more than wanking?
"Ben! And how has your day been?"
"Did your trip go well?"
Disembodied voices in the darkness. Was he meant to shake hands even embrace as a greeting? Potentially embarrassing as he could neither see hands nor what he might touch when embracing -- or indeed where his penis might poke.
He found himself talking the more to Greg and Graham, knowing by their voices they were over to his right and left but lost track of where the women were standing. Or rather where they were because he soon found at least one was not standing still. Remarkable to feel a touch to his skin and then more contact. A body -- it had to be female, Greg and Graham were not that close and, in any case, to his front -- right behind him, pressing closer to him, warm skin to his back and bottom, naked breasts being pressed against his back with the nipples hard. A hand slowly sliding around his hip and closing in upon his penis, feeling it, perhaps establishing it was hard and then stroking it. Gently easing the foreskin down and then up again. The other hand coming around and cupping his balls.
Ben kept talking but it was not that easy doing so whilst being so deliciously wanked by one of the girls. He wondered if the same was happening to the other men. Were they in effect three men in a circle having a chat in a most unusual circumstance? If they could see would they find they were all pointing with their pricks at each other; each held by a woman from behind, as they talked; each being masturbated by a feminine hand and each at risk of spurting at the others. A risk of warm droplets of cum falling upon another man's feet -- or worse.
He had no idea what was happening, other than to him. Greg and Graham were talking as normally as anything. And then the hand disappeared from his penis as he felt the woman came around from behind, her fingertips trailing across his skin. She reached down and held his hands, moving them out and away, before he could raise them to feel her; placed a soft, warm thigh in one of them and then took his penis and placed it between her legs, not merely placed but inserted it into her body. One moment Ben was being gently wanked by the woman, the next he was... inside her. He was standing and talking to Greg and Graham in the darkness whilst being fucked; a hot and wet sheath was being slid slowly down his cock. He did not know if it was Mary, Felicity or Liz. Did not know if he was, perhaps, fucking Greg or Graham's wife right there in front of them whilst he talked to them. So sudden and, in the particularity, so unexpected. But again, was that what was happening to Greg and Graham? Not knowing if it was their own wife upon their cocks or one of the other women. It was quite extraordinary -- not having any idea who you were fucking -- who your penis was within. Was this another of their strange games. Copulation without knowing your partner, like at a naked masked ball!
"This is all very nice -- having a chat -- but shall we have that dip in the lake. Rather exciting in the pitch darkness. Don't swim out too far and get disorientated. Don't really want to get the boat out and find you with a torch!" Greg's voice, clearly directed at Ben.
The woman disengaged herself, the hot and wet sheath slipped off his knob and was gone. Who had it been? She had left his penis all wet. He felt it, stroked it a few times, brought his fingers upwards and both tasted and took in the woman's scent. It had all been so sexual. Anonymous fucking in the warm darkness. A hand to his shoulder.
"You coming?" Graham's voice.
Ben was tempted to say, 'not quite, but not far off!" but instead said, "yeah, I fancy a swim."
He walked with Graham. Was the other man as hard as him? Was Graham's penis wet with the sexual juice of one of the other women? He almost wished Graham's hand would come and grasp his, like in the tub, he rather wanted the excuse to find out about Graham's cock. Was it hard... and wet? Had there been light what would they have looked like walking down to the lake?
Perhaps a little chilly getting into the water. but once in, the water did not feel at all like that. No wind, no lapping water on the shore; a wonderful silence as Ben swam contentedly through the silken water. A strange feeling to be swimming in darkness. A delightful peace and tranquillity. If not for the sounds of the others, faint sounds of their bodies moving through the water, Ben could so easily see how one might swim the wrong way in complete disorientation. A danger if alone. He put his feet down. No bottom. Out of his depth! Not panic, but just a feeling of unease. What if the sound of the others was actually from beyond him in the lake, what if they were swimming the wrong way? Would he be following them into danger?
Not a bit of it, swimming up and close to them his feet struck bottom. Perhaps they had been more wary of Greg's warning. He kept close to them, unwilling again to go swimming any distance in the silence and dark -- however seductively lovely it had been.
The water after the sun went down was warm enough, but after a time even with a certain amount of swimming and fooling about the temperature of their naked bodies seemed to drop. Upon their skin goose pimples rising. It was time to come up out of the water and dry and dress themselves or, perhaps instead, move to warmer water.
"Hot tub?" Suggested Mary to general agreement.
