Hunter' Birthday Present
By Maude1067
This story is fantasy which I define as a situation that could not, realistically, happen. In this case, it is hard to believe four grandparents would behave this way and that their eighteen year old grandson would allow this to happen. But in the fantasy land of our imagination, we can wish this happened.

Hunter Swanson's eighteenth birthday on February 25th was a special occasion. The excessively handsome young man was very popular with his fellow students (mainly the entire senior class of 29 students) at St. Jerome High School, a small Catholic school in Brunswick, Maine. His parents put on a party in their mansion that included Hunter's closest friends and his family (brothers and sisters and various aunts, uncles, and cousins). A good time for all.
But after the party, Hunter reflected on who was not at the party. All four of his grandparents were still alive and leading vibrant lives. But they were not invited to his party. His parents, Eric and Liza Swanson had limited their contact with their parents for reasons Hunter and his siblings didn't know. Now, Hunter's relationship with his grandparents had been and still was a loving and interesting one. They took him (and his siblings) on trips to Boston (Red Sox and Bruin games, the Boston Symphony, and the Museum of Fine Arts).
His Grandpa George and Grandma Karen Swanson were very active people. They lived nearby on Bailey's Island in a mansion right on the Atlantic Ocean. Grandpa had a large boat (not a yacht but large enough for ten people) and Karen was a rather well known local artist. They didn't need the money but she painted landscapes and did portraits which sold very well. She did portraits of her grandchildren at various stages of their lives and all were hanging throughout the mansion. Hunter always had trouble sitting still for these sessions and while he remembered that, he also remembered how much fun he had with her and grandpa.
Hunter's other set of grandparents were Grandpa Jesse and Grandma Judy Eliot, his mother's parents. They lived on Orr Island, also on the ocean in a fine house. It wasn't as large as Grandpa George's mansion and wasn't on the ocean, but it had an indoor swimming pool so that was pretty cool, especially in the middle of Maine's winters. Grandpa Jesse did not have a boat but he did have that indoor pool and he did like to play sports such as pickleball and, of course, swimming. Grandma Judy also loved playing and swimming. The two also were fans of the theatre and often attended performances (bringing the grandchildren with them) at the Maine State Theatre in Brunswick.
The thing that was different about his grandparents is that both sets of grandparents did everything together. Hunter knew that those students who still had two sets of grandparents never saw them socializing. Hunter's four grandparents were the only ones who seemed to be best friends with each other.
Hunter loved and enjoyed being with his grandparents but did not understand why they never were invited over to their house. Clearly there was a separation between his parents and their parents. They did allow their children to visit their parents and go on their various excursions with them. However, Hunter noticed as he entered his teen years, his parents never allowed him to be with his grandparents by himself - he always had a brother or sister or a cousin with him. None of the children in his generation were allowed to be with his grandparents alone.
A couple of days after his birthday party, Hunter approached his parents and asked the question: what is it between you and your parents?
"Well, Hunter," his father Eric said, "we simply do not approve of their lifestyle."
"Really?" said Hunter. "Their lifestyle seems pretty normal to me."
"Indeed," his mother Lisa said. "That is because you and your brothers and sisters were not allowed to see their lifestyle in action."
"And that is all we are going to say in the matter," Eric said. "You are eighteen now, Hunter, and legally you are an adult. You are on your own. You are old enough to make your own decisions and if you want to visit with them on your own, you and your sister (Andrea who was nineteen) can do so. But if you do, you will not involve your younger brothers and sisters. Is that understood?"
"Perfectly," Hunter replied, "although I do not know what the big deal is."
"Why are you bringing this up now?" his mom asked. She was a bit concerned because her oldest son was rather naive. He also was a shy lad and perhaps his shyness had limited some of life's experiences. He certainly could not read 'between the lines very well.
"Well, since they were not invited to my birthday party, they have asked me over so they can give me their birthday party," Hunter replied. "Is it okay if I do this?"
"Your choice," Eric said. "You are an adult now. When is this?"
"Next weekend." Hunter said. "Grandpa George is picking me up from school on Friday and will return me to school on Monday morning."
"Well, remember," Eric said. "You are in control. If you get uncomfortable, just say no. And you can always call me to come and get you."
"There isn't going to be a problem," Hunter said. "I control my own life."
No, Hunter - you do not. Control is the one thing you will not have.
George was right on time on Friday and by 3:00, Hunter found himself sitting and viewing the awesome Atlanta Ocean having a hissy fit since a mild winter storm was coming in and the waves were kicking all over the place. All four of his grandparents were there with him and they discussed Hunter's plans the following year when he would be attending Bowdoin College in Brunswick.
Dinner was fun and early - the grandparents apparently thought a 5:00 supper was perfect timing.
"I haven't eaten supper this early forever," Hunter said. "I always had some kind of practice either in sports or drama."
"Well, we like to eat early so we have more time for our evening activities," Karen said.
"I understand that you are going to live in a dorm at college," Judy said. "Why do that if you can live at home and save the money?"
Hunter smiled. Both sets of grandparents were very rich and yet they still watch the pennies and nickels when it comes to money. Maybe that is why they are rich.
"It is a social thing. Dad thinks it won't hurt to learn to live with other people. You know I have been shy my entire life and he thinks dorm life will help me overcome that."
"I agree with him," Karen said. "My son is a very smart man."
"Perhaps we can help with the shyness problem while you are here," Jesse said.
Hunter wasn't sure what he meant by that but before he could ask, out came the birthday cake and the presents (which included a 70" TV and a complete stereo system - Hunter loved these expensive presents but began to hope the dorm room was a big one).
After dinner, Hunter went up to his guest room (it came with its own bathroom and jacuzzi) to brush his teeth. He decided to shower because he did get sweaty at school - Mrs. Thompson was an elderly teacher who always overheated her classroom - and then returned to the living room.
