We headed for home on Saturday to give us time to do laundry and replenish supplies to go back to camp after we picked up Lisa and Nicki on Sunday. The trip home was fairly uneventful with both of us sated from the week alone. We talked about school and what they had to offer for photography classes, which wasn't many as it was part of the Arts. I told her if she was still interested photography after taking a few courses, I would help her look into a private school that specialized in photography.
She seemed pleased with that but still wasn't happy about having to leave me. I was beginning to have similar regrets myself at the thought of being alone in the house and not having a job to go to during the day. I decided to change the subject.
"So, oh wise young beauty, how do you propose we handle this coming week while your nubile friends are in our midst?"
"I think we just be nice to them and act normal. It will be a chance for them to have some time alone and while they're alone, we can be alone. We just might have to be a little quieter," she smiled.
"Are you sure you're ready to see Lisa with another woman? You two seemed pretty intimate and more than just sexually curious."
"Daddy, we've been friends most of our lives and that little incident just brought us together in a way that neither of us expected. The sex was great and I felt closer to her than I ever thought possible, but I'm not in love with her. And now that you're returning the feelings I've had for you, I don't need anybody else."
"Yeah, if you say so. Just don't be surprised if you feel something different when you see the two of them together."
Teri got quiet after that and I could see her mind drift off as she contemplated my last sentence. You don't just turn off feelings for someone overnight. It was a problem for me when I first hooked up with Linda and she wanted to do the three-ways. I was always excited at first, but seeing her react that way with other men and women took some adjustments. That was when I started to turn off my feelings.
Even if Teri could turn off her sexual attraction to Lisa, which I doubted, it would be normal for her to be jealous when she sees Nicki filling the close friend slot that she had occupied for most of her life. As we passed the last town and got onto the interstate, she finally looked at me and smiled weakly, leaning her head on my shoulder.
I wrapped my right arm around her as I drove and gave her a quick peck on her forehead. I reached down and copped a quick feel, briefly tweaking her nipple as I smiled down on her. She laughed and slapped my thigh before pinching it.
"Look, the important thing will be for us to discuss our feelings as they occur. Just be honest with me and with yourself and we'll be able to work through anything."
"But daddy, you're attracted to Lisa too. Will you be able to control your emotions around her?"
"Well, I think she'll be somewhat distracted by Nicki and less likely to flirt with me which should make it easier, but I think I told you that I love you. Believe me when I say I will not let anything jeopardize that love."
"You say that now, but when we're skinny dipping up at the pond, you might feel different."
As I pulled into the driveway, my mind was suddenly distracted by the length of the grass in the front yard. "What happened? Did it rain every day we were gone?"
"I'll volunteer to mow, if you take care of the laundry and grocery shopping," Teri offered. She really hated laundry even if it was a necessity. "You know me dad, I'm the Sun Goddess."
"Okay, at least I can make sure my clothes don't come out pink. I'll run to the store while the washer is running." I gave her a deep kiss before we exited the truck and we went in separate directions.
I was sorting the laundry when I came upon her underwear. I couldn't help but bring it up to my nose and sniff her essence. The mix of pheromones and her fragrance of the day produced an overwhelming stirring in my crotch. I knew I loved her and I knew I needed her more than anyone since Missy. And I was still worried about what would happen if Missy did come to visit. It could produce more strain on my relationship with Teri especially if it quickly followed the week with Lisa and Nicki.
I got the first load of washing done and into the dryer. I through in the second load and then headed for the grocery store. By the time I got back, they were done and Teri was still mowing the lawn. I through the last batch in the dryer and folded the first before calling up and ordering Chinese food for dinner. When I got back with dinner, Teri was nowhere in sight and the rider was in the garage. I assumed she was in the shower.
I set dinner on the table knowing it would stay warm for quite a while and then folded the last of the clothes. When I got upstairs, Teri was walking naked out of the bathroom, her lithe little body sparkling with a few water droplets still clinging to her.
"Well, I guess we're not saving on water today, eh?"
"Nope, and you'll be lucky if there's any hot water left. It was pretty chilly when I was finishing up," she laughed.
"Okay, so maybe we eat dinner first and then I'll shower. Should give the water heater time to recuperate."
