For once Beth and I didn't even have to create the opportunity we needed. After lunch the next day, Bill's phone rang, and when the call ended he looked at us glumly. "Something's come up at the office, I'm going to have to go back at least for a couple of days."
Mum gave him a warm hug. "Oh, I'm really sorry, darling. Don't worry about us, we'll be fine."
The car disappeared down the track, and Beth closed the door. "Sarah -"
A startled look, then understanding. "Yes, Beth?"
Beth's tone was soft, reassuring. "You and Tim talked, right?"
"Yes," hesitantly. Mum (dammit - 'Sarah') glanced at me, and I was sure she was remembering our interrupted kiss.
Beth offered a smile. "We could talk some more..."
Another hesitant nod. "I could use a drink first, though." Sarah crossed the room, opened a cupboard. "Looks like it's Bill's brandy," she offered.
"Mm, please."
We took our glasses to the sofa, and Sarah rubbed her arms. "Anyone else cold?"
"I'll light a fire," I offered. I busied myself with newspaper, kindling, and soon flames were licking up the chimney.
I returned to the sofa, and Sarah glanced at me, patting the space next to her. I sat, putting my arm across the back of the sofa behind her, and she leaned a little closer. "This is cosy."
She took a sip of her drink. "I don't really know where to start."
Beth touched her hand. "Then let me?"
Beth looked across at me, then back to Sarah. "I was afraid of what Dad would say, that's why Tim and I haven't been open about our relationship."
Sarah's face showed obvious conflict. "He just wants to protect you. But he can't wrap you in cotton wool forever. You'll be off to university soon, he has to know it's up to you then."
Her words reminded me of the plans Beth and I had made, but now wasn't the time. "I know who I am," were Beth's surprising next words. "Loving Tim - and loving you - " at this Sarah blinked, but didn't interrupt - "not everyone would understand, but to me it makes sense. Love is just where you give freely, and keep your promises."
To my astonishment I saw a tear roll down Sarah's cheek. "That sounds a lot like something John used to say before he -"
I moved my arm to her shoulders, squeezed reassuringly. "He was a good man - a good Dad."
Sarah took a deep breath. "And Beth - yesterday - I don't know why I just gave in to what I felt - it wasn't fair on you."
Beth's low chuckle was distinctly sensuous. "But damn, it was good."
She stroked Sarah's arm. "Are you warmer now?"
"Maybe even a bit too warm, the fire's really got going."
"Then -"
My eyebrows shot up as Beth lifted her t-shirt smoothly over her head, then looked expectantly at Sarah. Slowly Sarah did likewise, and finally I had my first view - well, since a very long time ago, I mused - of her breasts, as amazing as I'd imagined and Beth had described.
Beth reached across to nudge me. "Be a gent, Tim - you can't be more dressed than us."
I slipped off my t-shirt, and Sarah smiled as she reached out to rest her fingers on my chest. "Smooth, just like John."
I touched the soft skin above her breasts, watching her expression, and she glanced down. "Feels nice."
Beth brushed a strand of Sarah's hair from her face. "I'm glad we're all relaxing a little."
Sarah turned, touching the ends of Beth's fingers with her lips. "Me too."
I drew my fingers down so that they rested in the valley between Sarah's breasts, then looked to Beth for a cue. She gave a tiny nod - "Do as I do."
She bent to kiss Sarah's breast, and I followed suit, our lips drifting towards nipples, then "Oh! Mmm..." from Sarah as we both tongued then suckled gently. "Oh - " she breathed, "that doesn't feel quite the same as when I was breastfeeding."
We continued to pleasure her, a faint flush creeping into her cheeks. "This is heavenly," she sighed.
"More?" Beth queried, nipple still between her lips, and Sarah nodded wordlessly. Beth wet her fingers, touching Sarah's breast, pressing the nipple gently between finger and thumb, and drifted her lips downward with soft kisses. "Are you ticklish?" she queried, but before Sarah could reply, Beth had started to gently explore her navel with a wet tonguetip. Sarah squirmed a little at first, then relaxed. "Mmm, nice."
Beth teased her there for a little longer, then started to follow the trail of fine hairs downwards, kissing, tonguing. Sarah flexed her hips and moaned quietly. "Oh... let me lose these."
She quickly shed her slacks, and Beth's lips returned to drop soft kisses above the elastic of her panties. Beth breathed in deeply - "mm, I can tell how turned-on you are" - then pressed her lips to Sarah's mound through the cotton. Sarah parted her thighs a little, and Beth drew her tongue over damp fabric. "Ready for more?"
Sarah nodded wordlessly, and Beth glanced up at me. "Tim, do you want to see if that rug's as comfortable as it looks?" she hinted.
I shed the rest of my clothes and laid down near the fire. "Now," smiled Beth, slipping Sarah's panties down, off, then drawing her towards me. "I think Tim's mouth has something to offer you."
Sarah slid over me, her so-wet entrance irresistible, and I started to explore her with my tongue, my hands on her breasts. "Mmm..." she breathed, then "Oh! - god, Beth, yes."
Beth had moved behind her, stroked softly down her back, then between her thighs, sliding fingers inside. Beth wet another fingertip, and carefully brushed Sarah's other entrance, pressed into the centre a little. "Ohh..." moaned Sarah, "Tim's mouth, and his hands, and you touching me there..."
Beth shifted position a little, and I gasped as she pressed wetness against my erection. I saw Sarah smile, "Are you stealing my treat, Beth?"
Beth shook her head. "Couldn't resist a taste, though."
I moved my tongue a little more insistently, and Sarah flexed her hips in response. "Oh - yes - I'm so close -"
Suddenly her body tensed, shuddered, her nipples hardening even more under my hands, and she cried out as I felt wetness slip from her down onto my lips, my chin. "Ohhhh..."
Her climax went on for long seconds, another shudder, then, "Mmm..." she relaxed.
Beth drew her backwards, held her. "Mm, Sarah, that felt lovely."
Beth slid from me, raised an eyebrow at Sarah. "Now, that treat you mentioned."
Sarah glanced at me. "You look so comfortable there, Tim, but I'd really like you in me from behind...?"
"However you want..." I nodded.
She knelt, and I moved up behind her, pressing my hard tip against her entrance. A quiet moan from her as I entered, sliding in until my hips were touching her bottom. "Mmm..."
