I tried to go back to sleep, but it was a struggle. Finally, I dozed off around 2, but it was fitful and full of crazy dreams. I woke up at 6, when Mom opened the door to tell me she was leaving for work. After she left, I got up and took a quick shower. I started getting really nervous, as I combed my hair.
It was just a short drive to the hospital, and thankfully I didn't have too much time to think about it. Otherwise, I'd probably have turned back. I just hoped I wouldn't run into my mom. Once inside the hospital, I found the directory. Much to my relief, Richard's office was in a different wing of the building than where my mom worked. I rode the elevator up to the 10th floor.
When the door opened, there was a tall man standing there in scrubs.
"You must be Brad." He reached out his hand with a smile. "I'm Richard Bennett."
"Brad Williams," I replied, as I shook his hand. He was probably six inches taller than my own 5'10".
"Please, come this way." He led me to an office and pointed to a chair. He closed the door and locked it, which seemed very ominous to me. I stood there as he walked around behind his desk.
"Please, sit down." He could see my nervousness. "Brad, relax, please. I was a bit stern with you last night, and I'd like to apologize."
"No, sir. I understand." I sat down and could finally feel myself begin to relax a little.
"Brad, as you know now, my family is very unique. Society says the love and pleasure we share is wrong. I'm a respected member of the medical community and I can't afford for my private life to become public. Kami did a very reckless thing yesterday. When I called you last night, I was still upset with her and David. That's the reason I acted the way I did. You did nothing wrong, but I needed to ensure that you respected our privacy, even when my daughter and son did not."
"Yes sir. I won't tell anyone, I promise." I thought briefly, and then I told him what I had told Lloyd.
"That's fine. No names were mentioned and certainly no activities," he smiled.
"No, sir. I didn't learn all of it until last night," I explained.
"I know you have to be curious about all of this," he replied.
"Yes sir, I'm very curious. I mean, how did all of this start?"
"My wife and I were both orphans. We were put in the same foster home, but there had been some mistake and our paperwork indicated that we were biological brother and sister. We didn't find out until I turned 18, that the mistake had occurred. Our time growing up was hard. Often, we only had each other. The bond we shared was as strong as any brother and sister. When I left the group home and enrolled in college, I realized that I was in love with her. After Angela reached 18, she moved to my college town to live me. The first night, I told her how I felt. She said that she felt the same way. I told her that I was going to marry her, if she'd have me. Fortunately, she said yes."
As Richard continued to talk, I noticed a picture on the wall behind him of their family. Kami was a beautiful brunette with fair skin. She looked adorable with her pixie hair style. David was a handsome looking guy and looked a lot like his father. Angela was a beautiful, older woman with long, flowing brown hair. Her skin tone was darker than Kami. Maybe she liked to tan, I thought. I looked at Angela closer, there was something about her that was familiar. It was her eyes and cheek bones. I couldn't seem to place it though.
"Life was hard. We struggled with money as we were both in school, and it got worse when David and Kami were born. We managed to fight our way through it, though. I finished college and was accepted to medical school. Angela was accepted to law school. We were finally on the path to have the life we'd always dreamed of."
He smiled as he said the last sentence.
"Angela and I were always open with the kids. We knew how kids are, so we made sure they knew about the birds and the bees, of course. I could always tell that they were close growing up from being twins, but they rarely fought and argued like most siblings. My wife and I didn't know that just after they turned 18, they gave one another their virginity in our own bed. Last summer, Angela and I found out what was going on when we came home from a dinner party a little early. We found them making love on the living room sofa."
"Wow." I said.
"Yeah, it was a bit of surprise." He laughed. "Even more so, when my wife told them to continue and began undressing me. We were soon all four in our bed. We made love together most of the night."
"That's amazing. I still can't wrap my brain around it," I admitted.
"I can understand, but you are trying to at least. Most people would just demand the four of us be locked up."
"Yes, you're probably right there," I smiled.
"Is there anything else you're curious about?"
"Kami said that two of David's friends were involved as well."
"Ah, yes, Tyler and Kyle."
"How did that start?"
"As it turns out, the three boys had been experimenting since the summer before their senior year. David and Kami had turned 18 in July. The following weekend, Angela, Kami and I attended Kami's soccer tournament in Atlanta. David had a summer job and decided to stay home that weekend to work. Apparently, the boys got into the liquor cabinet and Tyler had brought some pornographic videos. Their inhibitions were gone, aided by the alcohol, no doubt, and a joint masturbation session broke out."
I smiled, thinking about the first time Lloyd had loaned me some porno tapes. I'd almost rubbed myself raw.
"Apparently, this continued most of the night. I wished I was still that young and energetic." He winked at me. "The boys continued to experiment the remainder of that summer and fall, progressing to oral sex. When David began making love to his sister, he confided in the other two boys, much to my dismay. They were eager to try it as well, if Kami was willing. Fortunately, they came to me first and I gave the boys the same talk I've given you. They've all been enjoying one another for over a year now."
"Wow. Do the guys still mess around, too," I asked.
"Yes, they certainly do. You know how it is. You're in the prime of your sexual energy, constantly searching for release."
"That's true," I laughed.
"Sometimes, I join them," he said casually. "Have you ever been with another man?"
"No, never. I've never even thought about it. My sex life is pretty boring, I'm afraid."
"Okay, that was my next question. How many women have you been with?"
"Just one, sort of. My prom date," I replied with a touch of shame.
"I see. That's nothing to be ashamed of. There's too many things in the world to be reckless. You wouldn't mind if I gave you a blood test, would you?"
"For what," I asked.
"I'm bringing you into my family, if you're interested. It's just a precaution," he said.
"Oh, okay. Will it be private?"
"Of course," he said confidently.
"My mom works here," I admitted.
