Chapter Five
As I climbed the stairs, I heard sounds coming from my older brother's room. It looked like I hadn't gotten up earlier than everyone else the way I'd thought. My guess was I'd had mom and Aunt Liz to myself not because I was the only one awake, but because Anthony was only interested in Bridget.
Good for him. I wouldn't trade a threesome with voluptuous women like mom and Aunt Liz for the chance to share slim little Bridget with my brother.
I stopped by the door to eavesdrop for a moment. Bedsprings were squeaking, voices were grunting, and was that an ass-slap? I thought it was.
"Fucking tight, ain't she?" I heard Anthony ask.
So they weren't alone. Interesting. I guess Bridget really had liked her man sandwich.
"Incredible," Ted replied.
I guess they wouldn't be quite as envious if I told them about my morning as I'd thought after all. But then, why shouldn't we all be enjoying this waking fantasy state?
For a moment, I considered knocking on the door and joining them. But I was pretty good and worn out from mom and Aunt Liz. Plus, while part of me found the idea of seeing if my cousin was as willing to try triple penetration as double perversely arousing, part of me also found my own willingness to entertain the notion repulsive. I was relatively sure there'd be plenty more depravity ahead of me that day. I slipped down the hall towards the shower, careful not to elicit any squeaks from the floorboards and thereby interrupt my brothers.
When I got out of the shower, I stumbled and nearly fell. I wasn't sure if it was just because I was so exhausted from the workout my mother and my aunt had given me or simply because whatever change had overcome the family had loosened my grip on reality both physically and psychologically. Once again, I found my memories eluding me, and I wasn't sure if I had dreamed the incestuous acts taking place since yesterday or if they had actually happened.
I was too tired to deal with the issue anyway. I crawled back into bed and waited for my mother to call up to us to make sure we were awake at eleven.

My brothers and I made it to the community center a little before one. The women had all gone over the maid-of-honor's house for the bridal shower. Mom had sent a stack of papers with us, covered with sketches of her plans for the decorations. They didn't look too terribly complicated. If we could manage to agree on how to interpret them, and agree to stick to them, we shouldn't have any trouble being done in time for dinner at seven. The trouble, of course, was that Anthony was with us, and if he thought there was a better way of doing things than what my mom had drawn out, it was liable to take a good deal of arguing before anything got done.
The first hour went by relatively smoothly. We got out all the tables, positioned them appropriately, set up the chairs and tablecloths. While we worked, none of us discussed the incestuous sex craze that had overtaken the family, nor its apparent supernatural origin that had transformed their appearances of the women of the family. I'd already heard Ted's thoughts on the matter and I wasn't sure how interested I was in Anthony's. Sooner or later, the topic would come up, but I was more than happy to delay that moment for now.
Anthony didn't even argue with my mother's planning too much. He did decide that the tables shouldn't be positioned quite the way she wanted, but the alternative design he proposed wasn't radically different and it did actually made sense, so Ted and I let him change the plans without arguing. He also felt the need to lecture the two of us on how fucked up it was that Cassie wasn't letting Jason have a bachelor party.
"You know she wouldn't have cared if they threw it a week or so ago, before she got home. It's not that she can't stand the idea of him looking at a stripper or anything. But they haven't seen each other in months, and won't see each other for a few more months after the honeymoon. And when they do, it'll be on a base in South Korea," Ted said. "Cut her some slack."
Anthony was having none of it. "Dude, I don't care. They didn't know what they were getting into when they planned this wedding? It's still a tradition, and she's taking it away from him. That sucks for him, and it sucks for everyone else who would have gone, including us."
Though I was more inclined to agree with Ted, I agreed with Anthony to humor him, hoping Ted would take the hint and do the same. After a few more minutes, that plan succeeded. I was glad he wasn't fighting too many of my mother's plans, but Anthony was getting on my nerves already and I couldn't wait for Aunt Allie to drop off Jake and Mark on her way to the bridal shower. She should have arrived already, and I was starting to wonder where they were.
About twenty minutes later, my cousins finally arrived. Aunt Allie came in behind them. As I'd suspected, she too was transformed. The normally very plane, petite, middle-aged woman with gray streaks in her sandy blonde hair had been replaced with a young, tight-bodied blonde with the ass of a physical trainer and respectable breasts. I'd guess they were towards the fuller end of a B cup.
