I often have fantasies about being 18 again and enjoying sex for the first time. This story involves my Mother and Father, (I chose not to use their names and just call them mom and dad.), and their good friends Tom and Theresa. My sister, Shirley, and Tom and Theresa's daughter, Sarah, are introduced as they will undoubtedly have major roles in future stories. My name is Jim, though mom always calls me James.
Annual August Holiday

Chapter 1 - Our Great Loss
It was late July in a year of many changes. I had just graduated high school and just turned 18. I would be voting for the first time in the November election so was beginning to take an interest in politics as well as becoming irritated with the multitude of ugly political commercials. I had been accepted into a local trade school this fall to become an electrician so was working this summer with a local electrical company as an intern. It involved running a lot or errands and doing a lot of the heavy lifting, but I was able to keep in shape and learn some of the trade along the way.
But the biggest change of year was the loss of my dad this past spring. Dad and I had always been quite close so when a sudden heart attack took his life my world was turned upside down. There would be no more days on the lake fishing with him, no more days together tinkering on the car or other garage projects, and especially no more times just talking with him about life and love. I really miss my dad.
As hard as it was on me it took a bigger toll on my mom and my older sister. My sister, Shirley, is twenty and just finished her second year at the university. Dad had always treated her special and would continually shower her with praise, hugs and presents. And he was quick to defend her against anyone or anything. It was not wise to ask her out on a date without the best of intentions.
Mother and dad were the picture of perfect love. I will never forget the pecks on her cheek, the love pats on her rear, and the way they would look into each other's eyes. There were times when they would have respectful disagreements but they seemed to always end by retiring to the bedroom and emerging the next morning with a special glows on their faces. It was obvious they had a wonderful love life and mom knew how to get her way. Dad's sudden death hit her pretty hard. She and my sister cried often for many days after.
I made a commitment to be strong, to be extremely sympathetic, and to try to fill dad's shoes as best as I could. Dad left a generous life insurance policy, so money was not a problem, but mom decided work would be good therapy, so found a job as a nurse. I took dad's lead and brought mom and sis flowers and little gifts often, gave those many hugs and spent as much time with them as I could. I considered it my place to make sure that the void, and do all I could to bring us closer together.
Mom and dad had several friends, but none as close as Tom and Theresa. They lived across town and yet would meet up often for a night out. Often they would come over for an evening of cards or a weekend Barbeque. Tom and dad loved to fish and often took me with them. It was an opportunity for me to learn the responsibilities of manhood from two of the finest. Theresa and mom went on shopping excursions, planned many parties together, and seemed to be in constant contact by phone or text. They had one daughter, Sarah, who was my age but attends a different school. She has become much more independent so I haven't seen her very often the last couple of years.
Tom and Theresa gave much comfort to our family at the loss of my dad. Tom continued to take me fishing, or maybe take me out for a burger from time to time. He wasn't dad, but he was a great help. Theresa spends a lot of time with mom and Shirley shopping, cooking and doing other girl things.
For as long as I can remember, every August our two families have taken a weekend vacation to the lake. We called it our 'August Holiday' and always followed the same routine. They would rent a three bedroom condo together, leave on Friday morning, stop halfway there for lunch at the same little café, arrive, unpack, go out for dinner somewhere, and settle in. Shirley and Sarah would occupy one bedroom, mom and dad one, and Tom and Theresa the third. I was left with the couch in the living room.
Saturday, we three guys would pack a lunch, and head out to rent a boat and spend the day puttering up and down the lake fishing. We practiced catch and release, so the ladies had to believe our fishing tales. When we returned we would share our days around the dinner table.
Now was the time for the ladies to model the things they had purchased. They would usually begin with a casual outfit such as dressed or jeans and shirts. Then mom, Theresa, and the girls emerged from the bedrooms wearing their swimwear. I squirmed in my seat trying to hid the effects this was having on my package.
Mom at 40 was a real looker. She was five foot ten with an hourglass figure. Her one piece suit was usually a very attractive print that covered all but just the right amount of cleavage while concealing her double D cups.
Theresa was a slimmer, very attractive five foot eight. She usually chose a modest bikini in a bright color. The view of her curves, midriff exposing her belly button, and legs made it difficult for me to breath. It was difficult trying not to stare at the material between her legs and the bra that covered her C cups.
It's been two years since Shirley, Sarah and I attended the August Holiday, but I still recall those skimpy bikinis. Shirley was 18, five foot nine with an hourglass shape much like our mom. Sarah was 16 like me, five foot four and her slender shape closely matched her mother, Theresa.
I began to look forward to spending some time in the swimming pool with the two of them tomorrow. We would play some of our silly games and I would surely get a chance to see more, and rub up against their bodies. Needless to say I would need some extra time in the shower to relieve myself and my dreams would be made up with wonderful story lines involving one, or the other, or both.
Sunday was football day. August was preseason time and there was much talk about how the teams would do this year. We usually slept in late, had a brunch around 11:00, and prepared for the afternoon. The girls usually spent the day at the pool, while the wives chatted in the kitchen sipping some wine, and brought us treats like popcorn or trays of finger foods as well as a few beers for the husbands and a soda for me as we sank ourselves into the game. When the game was over the guys would barbeque steaks on the grill and the wives prepared a fabulous supper for all. The evening was consisted of cards, conversation, maybe a dip in the hot tub or a walk to the lake. We were always saddened when Monday morning arrived as we packed and traveled back home, always stopping at the same café about half way.
The last two years these August trips had changed. Shirley had gone off to the university early for sorority rush and Sarah and I had each found summer jobs that were hard to leave, so mom, dad, Theresa and Tom had downsized to a two room condo and gone without us.
Though I missed the August holiday, I was beginning to spend more time with some of my high school friends as well as going on an occasional date. Though I thought about sex often, my dad made it clear that dating was not a time of conquest but a time of discovery. He would not take it kindly if I didn't treat my date with the upmost respect, care and consideration. I was to use a date to learn if the girl was a person I was willing to spend the rest of my life with, and that sex could ultimately lead to a lifetime shared with the wrong mate. Needless to say, I began looking for someone who was just like my mother and after only a few dates I'd usually find myself disappointed and break it off. My sexual experience consisted of an occasional kiss, a feel, and thoughts of what sex might be like someday. Oh how I miss my dad and his advice.
Chapter 2 - The Request
It was July and I was wondering if there would be an August holiday for mom this year. She had said nothing. Would she join Tom and Theresa, would they go without her, or would it even happen at all? Shirley as usual planned to go back to the University early, I had my job, and I hadn't heard anything about Sarah's plans, but assumed she was also preparing for her first year at the university.
One day when I arrived home after work, mom met me at the door. "James" she said. Though my friends call me Jim, she always calls me James. "I have a request."
"Of course mom, you know I'll do anything you want. Let me shower first though. It's been a grimy day." I quickly showered and returned finding mom waiting at the kitchen table.
"James", I could tell that she was a little hesitant. "Would you go with Tom, Theresa and I on our August holiday this year?" I began thinking about spending some time with mom walking to the lake, or playing some cards with my friends, and a day of fishing with Tom. I could sure use a few days to resting up before classes began.
"Mom, I think I can get a couple of days off. I'll check, but of course the answer is yes if I can. I'm so happy that you decided to go. I was concerned there might not be one this year. I will do all I can to make it happen."
She continued, "Before you give me a final answer there is something I need to tell you and I hope you'll understand. This is going to be a little difficult so please be patient with me."
