Part 1.0 of this saga took place on Thursday night. The following Friday passed without incident. I got up and left for work at about 7:15 as usual. Sean and Sara were both still asleep in Sean's bed, and Sara was fully covered by the sheets and comforter so I did not get a look at her breast or any other part of her body other than the back of her head. But the visions of the previous evening were still fresh in my mind, and they kept me pleasantly occupied at the expense of productivity all day long.
Not unexpectedly, the apartment was empty when I got home. I went for a run, took a shower, ate something, watched a VHS movie (probably something with Schwarzenegger), and went to bed.
Saturday was rainy, and, in fact, there were some pretty severe thunderstorms. I spent the day reading Spin Magazine and looking at the globe that Sean had brought with him when we moved up. I was trying to get a better idea of where the places were that Rachel was going on her trip.
Sean and Sara showed up at about 5:00 in the afternoon and both threw their backpacks on the kitchen table as they said hello. We chatted for a while and the events of Thursday night did not even come up. It was as if it had either not happened at all or was no big deal, which was a relief to me. Thursday had been fun, but I didn't want it to ruin the comfortable relationships I had with the two of them.
Sean and Sara disappeared into the kitchen and reappeared a few minutes later with a couple turkey sandwiches. They were eating them as they walked out the front door again.
"We have to go help Sara's parents clean up a big tree branch that fell in the yard during the storms this afternoon," said Sean just before he closed the door. "Want to meet up at the bar later on?"
"Sure," I replied, "but do you want me to come help you with the branch?"
"Nah, that's alright," said Sean. "Sara's parents and the neighbors already got a head start on it. It shouldn't be that difficult. I'm only going cuz I'm the boyfriend. Nine o'clock?"
"Sure, see you there," I replied. We hadn't specified, but I assumed that we would be meeting at the bar instead of riding together.
The bar was about 15 blocks away, and after the rain passed through it was a pleasant evening so I decided to walk. On the way, I couldn't help but wonder if Thursday night would come up. I considered the idea from multiple angles before deciding, when I was about three blocks from the bar, that I hoped it didn't come up. It would always be a great memory to me, but I thought that it had played out and ended perfectly. Revisiting it may ruin that perfection.
Sean and Sarah were already at the bar when I arrived, sitting in the same positions at the same booth we had sat in Thursday. I wondered if that was an omen.
We chatted and drank pitchers of beer and everything seemed completely normal, which was a relief to me. But then the Divinyls song "I Touch Myself" came on the jukebox (remember, this was the early 90s). I don't even remember what we were talking about, but we all went silent when it came on, and just looked at each other trying not to laugh. Then, of course, we all laughed.
"Well, I haven't yet, but I'm sure I WILL touch myself when I think about you guys soon," said Sara, still laughing.
"I will definitely also do so," I added.
"Now we're just stating the obvious," said Sean.
"But actually," said Sara, clearly with a purpose, "this provides a good segue."
(Crap, I thought. She's going to bring up Thursday night and that will probably detract from its perfection.)
"Sean and I spent some time the past couple days talking about Thursday night..."
(Yep, she's gonna ruin it. If she says it was a mistake, I will have to act like I agree even though I don't.)
"...and we were thinking we'd like to try something similar..."
(Wait, what?!?! Maybe I'd better just pay attention.)
"... but instead of just touching ourselves, we could touch each other as well."
Okay, this totally did NOT go where I expected it to. But suddenly I was glad Sara had broached the subject of Thursday night. I still wasn't exactly sure what Sara, and Sean as well I suppose, was proposing. So I sought clarification.
"Well, we did touch each other Thursday," I said. "Sean touched your nipple while it was your turn, and I touched your mouth." I didn't mention the fact that Sara had licked my fingers in a very sexual manner when they were in her mouth. I interpreted that as Sara doing something sexual to me, and I didn't want to potentially hurt Sean's feelings by mentioning it.
"She means more than that," said Sean. I was sort of surprised to hear Sean instead of Sara responding to my comment.
"How much more?" I asked, looking back and forth between the two of them with a facial expression that I'm sure reflected no small amount of confusion on my part. Sara answered for them.
"A lot more. Like touching each other not only with our fingers, but also with our mouths. And genitals."
"So you mean like an actual threesome?" I asked, even though I knew that was what they were talking about. I just needed a little more conversation to fully wrap my head around the idea.
"Yes." said Sara with no hesitation.
