PART SIX -- Two's Company, but Three's...
It's about eleven that night when we are awakened by a soft but insistent knock at the door. I throw on a robe and peer through the chained opening. "I didn't know where else to turn," she says, sounding like she's on the verge of tears.
It's Anna.
I quickly open the door wide and she slips inside, pulling her luggage behind her. "What's wrong," I ask, closing the door and hugging her to me. Normally, this would be a calculated action, but this is Anna. She wraps her arms around me and buries her face in my chest.
Kira slips out of bed and joins us.
"I had a big fight with René," Anna says, maybe sounding a little more settled now.
"What was it about?" Kira asks. She unselfconsciously hops up on the chair next to us. I release Anna and she hugs Kira. Then I wrap my arms around them both.
"René was mad about my getting naked with you guys. She's been getting more and more possessive ever since I met Peter on Monday. When I told her I didn't want to have sex with her tonight, it was clearly the last straw, and she went off on me, calling me every name in the book. I just had to get out. I went down to the front desk to see about getting my own room, but the jerk got all pissy about having to do any real work so late in the evening. I'm sure he would have eventually gotten me a room, but I just didn't want to deal with any more bad attitudes tonight."
"Who was it?" I ask.
"His tag said
Raul
, I think."
Kira gives me a knowing look. "That guy is
such
an asshole," she says.
"Yeah, he kinda was," Anna says, "so I came here. Do you mind if I sleep on your couch? Just for tonight? I can get another room in the morning when someone else is at the desk."
"The
couch
?" Kira asks, almost looking offended. "Don't be silly, Anna. You're sleeping with us."
"Yeah, there's plenty of room for three," I add.
The only thing more surreal than our immediate invitation is that Anna doesn't seem the least bit taken aback by it. "I'd like that," she says simply. I unwrap the girls from my embrace and grab Anna's larger suitcase, placing it with ours. Kira shows her to the bathroom so she can get ready for bed.
A few moments later, I hear the shower start up. I can't blame Anna for wanting to cleanse herself. Being pressured for sex by René would make me feel dirty too.
Kira returns to bed and spoons to my chest. I pull the sheet up to our waists. With all of the windows open and the tropical breezes slowly moving through the room, the temperature is perfect, but I feel Kira shiver. "Am I insane," she whispers, "inviting another woman into our bed? I saw the way she was, spreading sunscreen on you and playing with your cock."
"You're no more insane than I am. She likes girls and she
told me
she wanted to be with you."
We say no more as we wait for Anna. Eventually she walks into the open bathroom doorway, dressed in a terry robe, but then she stops. The indecision on her face is clear to see. She pauses for a long moment, then turns and retreats to the bathroom. Kira immediately gets up to go to her. I'm right behind her.
"Anna," Kira says, "are you okay?"
While I've learned a lot about social situations and human emotions by rote over the years, I know I'm way over my head at the moment. I let Kira do the talking.
The soft glow of moonlight through the glass roof is plenty enough to see the conflict on Anna's face. "I just don't want to hurt you guys."
"Do you
want
to be with us?" Kira asks.
"That's just it, before today I could never have imagined that I'd want to share a bed with two other people, especially a man and a nearly straight woman, but after getting to know you guys... yeah. I want to be with you.
Both
of you."
"We have something very special here, don't we?" I say.
Anna nods, but then looks me in the eye. "You need to know, Peter, that as much as I like you, it's Kira that I
want
. Not to steal away from you, though. You two are so wonderful together that it would make me cry if I did anything to hurt that. I just want to share her with you for a while."
I'm again without words, but Kira jumps in. "I totally understand, Anna. I want to be with you too, but not if it's going to damage what I have with Peter." She turns to look at me. "I guess this is really up to you. If you're not completely comfortable with this,
please
say so. I don't think either of us could stand to hurt you."
At first, it seems like a slam dunk. I mean, what man wouldn't want two gorgeous and willing women in his bed? But how will the memory of what we could do tonight color the relationship that Kira and I might have in the future? We've never had a real argument, but every couple eventually does. Would this come back to haunt us?
In the end, I have to go with my heart and what I know of how the three of us have gotten along so far. The way we all shared and got along on the beach, the way that Kira and I each got to know and like Anna individually, and our immediate invitation to her to join us in bed, all tell me that the chemistry between the three of us is near magical. It would be a shame to let that go to waste.
"Anna, I'm head over heels for Kira and she comes first for me, but you're very, very welcome to join us," I say. "I want you with us."
Anna nods, relieved. "Good," she says, shrugging out of her robe and hanging it on the hook. I reach out and take her hand, while Kira takes her other, and we lead her to our bed.
Kira and I resume our previous position, with her spooned to my chest. Then Anna slips into bed, lying on her side facing us. There's the briefest moment of awkwardness, but then Kira reaches out and begins to stroke Anna's full breast.
Somehow, in all of this, the idea has evidently not occurred to
any
of us that we might just
sleep
. There is way too much sexual desire in the air for that.
I watch in interest as Kira's gentle touch gets Anna's nipples to make an appearance. In turn, Anna reaches out to massage Kira's breast. "I wish mine were as firm as yours," Anna murmurs. "So pert and young-looking."
"I wish mine were bigger, like yours," Kira says. "The first time Peter saw me, he mistook me for a grade-schooler."
"In my defense," I say quickly, "it was below zero and she was wearing a heavy coat. I positively
love
her breasts." To emphasize this, I reach in and cup Kira's other breast, stroking the hard little nipple.
"What about
mine
," Anna says playfully.
"They're nice too." I know she's asking for more than my opinion, but I can't help but tease her a little. She reaches over and snags my hand, placing it on her own breast. Kira giggles.
I cup Anna's breast gently and begin to massage it. I'm taken aback by how firm it is. I've never felt a boob so big that felt this nice. "Oh, wow," I murmur. "You really have nice breasts, Anna."
She blushes. "Thanks."
"So which ones to you like better?" Kira asks playfully.
"Hey girls, Momma didn't raise no fool. Let's just say that each of you has tits perfectly suited to your respective bodies. You'd look pretty silly with each other's."
"Yeah, you'd be totally flat-chested," Kira says to Anna, giggling.
"And
