Chapter 4

Tuesday

I woke up suddenly and knew something was wrong. I didn’t know what it was but it was something I heard. I left my eyes shut and tried to figure it out. I didn’t hear anything. And then it dawned on me. I didn’t hear the surf. Nothing. The waves had been pretty loud the night before but now...

I strained to hear them and as I did, the rest of my senses woke up. At first, I could feel her weight on the bed and then I could smell her shampoo. My sister was sitting on my bed again.

“Good morning, Lisa.” I opened my eyes. “The surf is gone, isn’t it?” She nodded

“Want to tell me about your date?”

“What did LuAnn say,” I asked.

“Nothing. Not a word. And don’t think we didn’t try. She smiled a lot but she wouldn’t say a thing. Even when Tina and Fallon went to bed and the two of us were alone. Nothing. So, you have to tell me.”

I realized that my blanket was really low. Barely covering my boxers. I pulled it up some but she was sitting on the edge of it.

“I could but it wouldn’t seem right. We had a nice dinner and a long walk.”

“Did you kiss?”

“We kissed.”

“Did you do more than kiss,” she asked.

“We kissed. You already knew that. That’s all I’m going to say.”

“So, you got more practice.” She was silent for a few moments. Her eyes moved around the room and then back to me. “I don’t have anyone to practice with,” she said.

I pulled at the blanket but it was stuck. It just barely covered my boxers and if she talked like that anymore it might not be enough.

“I’m here. I mean, if you wanted to practice. You know how LuAnn didn’t say anything?” She nodded. “I can keep a secret better than she can.”

“It’s wrong. But I want to,” she said. “This is messed up. But I see my friends and they all get to kiss you and I don’t get to kiss anyone.”

“You can kiss me. I can kiss you and the difference is that they won’t know.”

“And that tiny little difference that you’re my brother.”

“Just an offer.”

“That’s what’s crazy. Even though you’re my brother I do want to kiss you. I want to kiss you however LuAnn kissed you last night.”

My eyes must have given something away. I couldn’t imagine anyone else kissing like LuAnn had. And that I had my hand on her breast while I did was almost too much to imagine. I sat up in bed and pulled at the cover again. Could I kiss Lisa like that.

“I don’t think I can do that, sis. When I kissed LuAnn, it was ... I don’t think it’s something I could ever recreate.”

She leaned forward and kissed me. It was a soft kiss. It was just slightly more than a brother, sister kiss. But it was more.

“Did she kiss you like that?”

“To start,” I said and she kissed me again and upped the ante, a lot.

She kissed me with her tongue and her lips, exploring the things she knew to do. She had the mechanics down but the passion wasn’t there. Not like it had been with LuAnn. I didn’t think I wanted that from my sister but I was enjoying it.

“Like that?”

“No. That was nice, Lisa. But we’re kissing like a brother and sister practicing kissing.”

“That’s what we are. I don’t understand.”

“You want to kiss me like LuAnn did last night.” She nodded. “Then I need to kiss you like I kissed LuAnn last night.” She nodded again. “I said that I wouldn’t talk about our date.”

“So, you won’t be. I have an idea. Kiss me like you want to kiss Fallon tonight. You haven’t done it yet so it won’t be talking about LuAnn.”

There was a certain logic in that. I put my arms around her and kissed her on the lips. Then, I kissed the side of her face and down to her neck. I kissed her high on her neck, just below her ear. I ran my hands over her back and then I slid them up under her sweatshirt. I heard her draw breath in and I could feel her heartbeat. I continued to let my hands roam across her back. She was warm and smooth and she didn’t have anything on underneath her sweat shirt. When my hands reached her sides, near her breasts, she sucked air in sharply but she didn’t stop me. She didn’t feel like a sister.

I leaned back to look her in the eye. “Like I want to kiss Fallon,” I asked and she nodded, nervously.

I kissed her on the mouth as my hands continued to roam. Our tongues dueled and I trapped hers with my lips and flicked my tongue across it quickly, then sucked it into my mouth. When I did, I let my hand slide around to her front and I cupped her right breast with my left. She kissed back, hungrily. That was all I needed. I caressed her breast and then let my thumb and forefinger capture her nipple. It felt rubbery hard. When I squeezed it, she moaned, and broke the kiss. I thought maybe I’d done something wrong.

She pulled her top off over her head and thrust her tits up at me.

“I want you to kiss them. I want to feel that,” she said and I did.

Her tits were almost the same size and shape as LuAnn’s. Her tan lines were closer to her nipples so there was a little less white. I traced her tan lines with my tongue. Then I traced just inside her tan lines. Her breathing was becoming ragged and it was making me hot. I cupped her tits and lifted the left to me. It was firm and tight and didn’t give much as I lifted but I knew she could feel that tension. I flicked her nipple once with my tongue to see what she would do.

“Yes. Michael, that feels so good.”

All I needed to hear. I sucked it into my mouth, first, sucking as much of her boob into my mouth as I could and then easing back to where I had just the areola in it. I held suction and flicked my tongue back and forth across it. She held my face to her breast, holding me to her. After a moment or so, she turned her body and directed me to her other tit. I repeated the process. One of her hands left my face but I kept it up.

Finally, she directed my face and my lips back up to her mouth. She was on fire. It slowly dawned on me that there was more going on. I could feel the motion of her other hand and I could smell her like I had the other day. I started to break the kiss to investigate but she held me close. I realized that her other hand must be in her pants and that she was trying to have an orgasm. It was so hot. I trapped her tongue again, flicking it and sucking on it as I squeezed her nipple, harder than I thought she would like.

She grunted and shook. I tried to figure out if I should do something different and decided to simply keep the tension I had. It worked. She kept shaking and trembling, grunting with a convulsion every half second or so. It happened so fast but I had total focus on her. Finally, she pushed me back, and I felt her arm move out from beneath her sweats.

“Oh, god. Oh, god, Michael. That felt so good.”

“You had an orgasm, didn’t you?”

“Yesss. I can’t believe it.”

“Let me taste,” I said and pulled her hand to me. She pulled back at first and then gave in. I sucked her fingers into my mouth.

“Oh god. Michael, I can’t believe you’re doing that.”

“I’m doing it. I want to taste you without having to lick you off my fingers.”

“Oh,” she said, her eyes wide. “I don’t think so. Oh, I bet that would feel really good. Are you ... you know?”

“I’m as hard as a rock,” I said without hesitation. We had gone past that brother, sister modesty thing.

“I want to see it,” she said.

“And I want to taste you. I want to eat you. I want to give you an orgasm.”

“You already did.”

“I’m pretty sure you gave you an orgasm. I want to do it.”

“Oh god. I don’t know. Let me see,” she said and pulled at the blanket.

I held it in place for a moment but she kept the pressure up and I relented.

She pulled the blanket back and saw my dick poking up through the front of my boxers. She just stared at it. “Holy crap, Michael. I didn’t know it would be that big.”

It sounded good but I knew I was pretty normal. She looked it over as it stood out, as hard as it had ever been. I leaned back on my elbows and it pointed up toward the ceiling. I was leaking a little.

“I have no idea how that would get inside a woman. It would never fit inside me,” she said but I knew she was wrong. “Can I touch it?”

That sounded really good. “You just had an orgasm. I’m behind.”

Her eyes got wide. She reached out and took it in her hand. I almost lost it right then. She circled it with her fingers and then squeezed it gingerly.

“It’s hot and it has veins popping out. The top is really big. How is it soft and hard at the same time?”

“Lisa, I’m so turned on that it won’t take much for me to cum.”

“Do you want to?”

“Are you kidding? Did you want to? If you stroke me up and down a couple of times, I think it won’t take much.”

“And then you’ll squirt.”

“Yes.” She rubbed me up and down a little. It felt good but she would need to do a little more. “If you do that a little harder and you can squeeze me a little tighter, then I’ll cum. I’ll squirt. You have to be careful, though, because it will squirt out and I don’t want any to get on you. There’s no way you could explain that.”

She nodded and began to stroke me in earnest. I nodded that she was doing it right. When her hand got to the top, she discovered the precum, and slid it down, coating my dick. I felt like my balls were too tight to work right. I ached and my brain was going crazy. I watched my sister’s face and saw her lick her lips and I lost it. I thrust up, into her hand as she continued to stroke me. We watched as I spurted six or seven times. The first time, she jerked away and almost let go but she kept at it. It felt so good to have her stroke me to orgasm. I shuddered a couple of times and was done.

“That was so cool. Do I keep going? Can you do it again?”

I held her hand in place. “Not for a while. That felt so good. Better than when I do it.”

“That was a lot of stuff. Do you always shoot that much?”

“I’ve been making out with four beautiful girls for two days. I’ve wanted to do that since my first kiss with Fallon.”

“And you want to do that with her tonight.”

“Yes. No. I don’t want to do anything she doesn’t want to. I need to clean up this mess.” I looked up at my sister who was watching my quickly shrinking dick.

“Look how little. All done. Michael, we can’t tell anyone.”

“No kidding. I liked that, though. It’s not like you were my sister.”

“No. It’s like we’re secret lovers or something.”

“You gave yourself an orgasm and then you gave me one. I want to give you one.” She thought about it for a moment. “Look, you did the work to give you one, right?” She nodded. “And then I sort of laid back and let you do the work to give me one. And it was amazing. But if I get to give you one, it will be better for you than when you do it yourself. It has to.”

“Because when I did it to you it was better?”

“Exactly.”

“Okay. Maybe. But I have to think about it. I don’t think we can both be naked at the same time.”

“Why not?”

“Because then I would want to fuck you.”

“Lisa, I already want to fuck you and you still have your sweatpants on.”

“I like it that you do. But we can’t. We just can’t. That’s way past practice.”

“Yeah. I guess. I bet it would be nice though.”

“Definitely. I can’t imagine. Do you want to fuck me more than you want to fuck Fallon?”

“That’s different. You know what?”

“What?”

“I’ve never heard you even say the word fuck before.”

“Well, you kissed my tits and made me cum like crazy and then I helped you squirt. I think it’s probably okay if I said fuck. Fuck, fuck, fuck. Who would you want to fuck the most?”

“I don’t know if I could even answer that.” I thought about it a minute, while Lisa put her top back on. She ran to the bathroom and got me a damp washcloth.

“Here’s a starter but you made a real mess. Did you decide who?”

“No. I like them all so much. Way more than I thought. I mean, I always just thought of you guys as the Musketeers. I never thought about kissing any of you.”

“But now that you have?”

“But now that I have, it’s even more difficult. There’s something to like about each of them. Fallon is excited that anyone would think of her as a big girl. I’m not sure it matters that it’s me.”

“Oh, it matters. She’s had a crush on you for a long time.”

“Right. And so, if I date everyone once and decide I want to go out with Lu or Tina, then how’s Fallon going to feel?”

“If that happens, we’ll gather round. We’ll tell her that she is a big girl and that she should have more confidence. You can tell her how great she is. So, LuAnn or Tina.”

“LuAnn is amazing and I really like her. I might even love her but I don’t even know how to know. But Tina is different. I feel like Tina is like three years older than me and I’m getting away with something just by going out with her.”

“Okay. Don’t let her fool you. She has older sisters and she’s learned from them. I think she puts on an act so they don’t leave her behind. She’s had a couple of dates but the guys she went out with were terrible.”

“Who did she go out with?”

“Brad Miller and Kurt McGuire or something like that. And a couple of guys I don’t know.”

“I know Brad. He seems like a nice guy.”

“Well, he isn’t. She said he was all hands. He took her out to dinner and then expected her to put out on the first date. Do you remember when he was out of school for a couple of days?”

“No. He’s a junior or senior so he’s not in any of my classes. He might have even graduated. I didn’t notice.”

“He was out of school because he was embarrassed. He was out for three days.”

“Because he was embarrassed? That seems silly.”

“He was embarrassed because his hands were all over Tina. She told him to stop but he wouldn’t.”

“I still don’t see how that would keep him out of school.”

“I said he wouldn’t stop. I didn’t say he didn’t stop. He stopped when Tina hit him. She broke his nose and gave him a black eye. He finally came back to school with a swollen face and sunglasses.”

“Wow. She did that. He’s a pretty big guy.”

“She did. I think people think just because how she looks that she’s loose. She. Is. Not. I’m not saying she won’t kiss you or more. She kissed you like crazy the other night. I’m just saying that she’s not some floozy.”

“Floozy? Now who’s watching the old movies.”

“You never answered the question. If you could have sex with just one of them, which would it be?”

“I don’t think that’s it. I’ve been thinking. Having sex would be nice with any of them. But I think it would be a lot better to make love with one of them. I would want them to want me too and they would want to, too. I think it would be best if it was like, we really wanted just that one other person.”

“So, you would think it was best if you were in love with whoever it was?”

“I think that makes sense. Yes. I definitely think that’s it.”

“So, you wouldn’t try to have sex with Fallon just because she’s right there and excited?”

“I’m not saying it wouldn’t be tempting and it might even be too tempting not to, if you know what I mean. But I think it would be important to think there was more than just sex. I can’t believe I just said that, just sex.”

“Did you have sex with LuAnn last night?”

“I said I wasn’t going to talk about our date.” That wasn’t going to be good enough. “No. We shared some pretty steamy kisses but we didn’t have sex.”

“Good. Don’t have sex with Fallon tonight, either.”

“No? What if we both really want to?”

“What if you do and then you go out with Tina and decide that she’s the love of your life and all that?”

“Oh. That would suck for Fallon. And for me. For all three of us.”

“All three?”

“Yeah. I mean, if I had sex with Fallon and then, say, Tina and I were just like made for each other. And we dated and got married and all that. Then Fallon would know that I got the best she could give and it wasn’t enough and I would know that I wasn’t able to control myself with Fallon for one night so I could date Tina first and Tina would find out. She would and we know it.”

“Good. Then you can date Fallon tonight.”

“Thank you,” I said, graciously.

“I need to go. We’ve been in here a long time and it’s like lunch time or something. You need to spray. It smells like my pussy in here,” she said, smiling.

“I’m the only one in here. I think I’ll just let it smell like your pussy for a while.”

She shoved me. “I’ll think about the other thing. I’m glad you and LuAnn had a good time. She really enjoyed herself. She can’t stop smiling so whatever you did, you should bottle it. Fallon has seen LuAnn smiling since last night and I think her poor heart is racing with excitement.”

“See, that is so cool. What guy wouldn’t want to go out with someone so excited to go out?”

“Have fun tonight but don’t forget what I said about Tina.”

“Right. Don’t get my nose broken. And, Lisa.” She stopped and turned back to look. “You are so hot,” I whispered since the door was open. “You were awesome.” She blew me a kiss and left.

I showered and cleaned up, including airing out my room. I thought I knew Fallon pretty well and had a very different date in mind for her. I’d thought about taking them each out on the same date but thought I would be too prone to comparing. Then I realized that was impossible anyway. I’d compare but maybe they wouldn’t. I figured they share some of their dates, even though they promised and that was okay. I expected it.

I had a late lunch and sat out on the deck with my mom. Dad was picking up some stuff at the office.

“How did it go last night,” she asked.

“Good, mom. If you told me a week ago that I would date one of the Musketeers I would have called you crazy.”

“And now your dad calls you crazy. He might be right. LuAnn last night and Fallon tonight. Sounds like a recipe for disaster.”

“I think it will be okay. I’m sixteen and they’re fifteen. It’s not like I’m asking one of them to get married or anything.”

“But...”

“What do you mean, but?”

“But I heard something in your voice.”

“Are you serious? What did you hear?”

“You really liked LuAnn and it surprised you, didn’t it?”

“How did you know?”

“I’m an attorney, Michael. I pick juries. We go to trial. I’ve taken classes in how to read people. I’m a professional. Plus, you’re my son and I have a lot of practice. If that’s not enough, I overheard the girls talking.”

“Wow. That’s like cheating.”

“I told you. I’m an attorney. It’s what we do,” she said and smiled.

“Well, if I ever need an attorney.”

“So ... Tell. How did it go and why did it surprise you? Why did she surprise you?”

“It went great. Her dad tried to intimidate me but it was kind of funny when her mom stopped him. ‘Knock it off, Chester,’ or something like that. He said he had a gun and a shovel.”

“He’s a hoot. But he has a tell when he’s joking around.”

“Really. What is it?”

“That, Michael, is for you to figure out. So, just dinner?”

“Yeah. Dinner at the Rueben E. Lee and then Bailey’s for ice cream and a long walk on the beach. She’s really nice, mom. I like her a lot. Way more than I thought I would. I want to go out with her again.”

“But you’ve already committed to Fallon and Tina?”

“Yeah. But I don’t think it’s going to be a waste of time or anything. I like them, too. And I might like one of them even more.”

“But...”

“You should really stop doing that. But I can’t imagine that I would. Lu was super nice and she really likes me.”

“And...”

“And if you told me you could see the future and that we’d end up married with three kids I wouldn’t be surprised.”

“Or...”

“Or disappointed. Isn’t that crazy. One date and my mind is messed up like that.”

“It’s crazy alright. You, sir, are smitten. It’s okay to be smitten. Just understand that you might be smitten many more times before you find your life partner. You might even be smitten again tonight.”

“That thought has crossed my mind. But here’s the thing, I don’t think I want to be smitten by someone else.”

“Fallon doesn’t know that and neither does Tina. They both might try to smite you anyway.”

“Smite me. That sounds dangerous.”

“Oh, honey, you have no idea. If you look throughout history, you’ll find all kinds of successful and influential men. What you won’t find so much is the women who directed them, influenced them and smote them. Lots of smitten men doing lots of crazy things for love.”

“Yeah. Thanks mom. You’ve been a real encouragement.”

“Sorry. Just trying to be real. You want my take?”

“Yeah. Definitely. You’re a professional and all,” I said and smiled.

“And I’m a girl so I have the inside track. This is cheating a little and Lisa wouldn’t like it much if I gave you a leg up but her turn will come. LuAnn is a wonderful girl. You two as a couple would seem perfect. You might be perfect. She would like that and no one would be surprised if it happened just like you said. Fallon, though, she’s different. When you find the right woman it’s very important that they love you totally and completely. Fallon is that kind of girl. I think that if you and Fallon got together, she would only have eyes for you. You might find her clinging closer to you than you’d find comfortable. On the other hand, she’s ready for a knight in shining armor to treat her like the woman she wants to be. She had a rough start with her family. She’s been rescued once but she probably wouldn’t mind being rescued again. If she sees you in that role, she might latch on tighter than you’d like. She’s a nice young lady who definitely needs a special man and it might be you. You could definitely be her knight in shining armor. Do not lead her on, though. I think she’s probably pretty fragile. My thought on Fallon is that after you date Tina, if you decide to date Fallon the most, you better be damn sure.”

“But if after I date Tina, I decide to date Tina or Lu, then Fallon wouldn’t be hurt so much?”

“I think that’s about right. She might have a hard time finding another knight in shining armor.”

“Got it. Sounds tricky but I’ve got it. What about Tina?”

“Tina’s an interesting case. You know she’s got four older sisters and two of them are personally very successful but their husbands are a different story. I’m not even sure if either of them is still married. Lots of strife, there. The other two are still in college. I think she’s had to be older than she is just to stay afloat in that family. She gives off the aura of an experienced older girl, a woman really. I think there’s a part of her that wants to be a girl for a few years first.”

“So, Fallon is a girl that wants to be treated like a woman and Tina’s a woman who wants to be treated like a girl?”

“Almost. You don’t need to treat Tina like a girl. You just need to give her the freedom to act like one if she wants to. And, by the way, if Tina sets her sights on you, look out.”

“That’s pretty complicated stuff to deal with in just one date.”

“It is, indeed, buddy. It is indeed. Now, you have to realize that my advice is worth exactly what you paid for it. Treat it that way.”

“I didn’t pay ... Ah. I get it. So, what’s the bottom line? What should I take away from this?”

“Great question. Take my observations and counsel with a grain of salt. Then, trust your gut. Things will pop up in conversation and you won’t be able to sidebar with me. Treat them right, and trust your gut.”

“Okay. Thanks mom.” I started to get up to leave but she put her hand on my arm.

“One more thing. I was sixteen once and so was your dad. We remember.” I nodded. “Do not, and I repeat, do not get one of these girls pregnant. If you do, I will get Chester’s gun and shovel.” I nodded. She was serious as a heart attack. “Do we have an understanding?”

“Yes, ma’am.”

“Good. Because if you do, you’re in for a world of hurt you can’t even imagine.”

“I hear you loud and clear, mom.”

“I believe you do. I also know, there will come a point, maybe not tonight or tomorrow night, but there will be a time when all those hormones will go flying around in your body and her body and they will all scream at you that it’s time to make babies. Do not make babies until you’re ready to be a daddy to one.” I nodded solemnly and she released my arm so that I could go ponder my future, however short as it might be.

I found the girls and coordinated a time to leave with Fallon. I told her what type of clothes to wear and she looked a little puzzled but happy. Tina gave me a what-do-you-have-in-mind look and I smiled back at her.

I left the house and started walking up the beach. I just wanted some time to clear my head and relax. There was absolutely no surf. It was a flat as I’d ever seen it. Great waves one day and nothing the next. That was the Newport Beach I knew. It was still a nice day, with a light overcast and that kept it cooler.

I had just settled in to my planned leisurely pace when I heard steps and then felt a hand on my shoulder.

“Michael.”

“What’s up, Tina?”

“You have my curiosity cranked up all the way.”

“Ah. Mother hen making sure the fox doesn’t get into the henhouse?”

“That was like the worst analogy ever.”

“Yeah. It sounded pretty lame coming out, but I bet you knew what I meant.”

“Yes. Care to share what you have in mind for your evening with Fallon?”

“Do you know what my date was with LuAnn?”

“Nope. Not a word. All she will say is that you had a good time.” I smiled. “And that’s not like her.”

“I asked each of you not to. She took it to heart.”

“You’re killing me. My sisters talk about everything. No secrets. The Musketeers talk about everything. No secrets. But Lu has a secret.” She took my hand and we walked together. It seemed like the most natural thing in the world. Which was weird because it wouldn’t have mattered which of the Musketeers did that. It would still seem natural.

“But you know why, right?”

“It’s still killing me,” she said. “But I won’t bug you anymore. But I think it’s fair to assume it’s not the same place as Lu.”

“Not a bad assumption at all.”

“You know what Shakespeare said? ‘The first thing we do, let’s kill all the lawyers’ and both your parents are lawyers and you sound a bit like one too.”

“Henry the sixth, part two. My dad has that quote on his office wall.”

“You’re kidding?”

“Nope. He’s had it there forever.”

“Your folks are actually pretty cool.”

“Most of the time.”

“I saw you out talking to your mom. She seemed all business.”

“Ha. I guess. I was getting advice about girls.”

“Oh, oh. What did she say?”

“That’s privileged information. Sorry.”

“Sealed lips, huh. Come on. Tell me one thing she said and I won’t bug you anymore.”

“That seems like a one-sided deal. What’s in it for me?”

“I’ve been told I’m a pretty good kisser. I’ll give you a pretty good kiss if you tell me one thing, she told you.”

“You’re on,” I said and turned to get my kiss.

“Uh, uh. Tell first. Kiss second.”

“Pretty tough negotiator. Let me think about it.” We walked in silence for a bit. It felt nice to be holding her hand. Such a simple thing. We were getting looks again. People must have been wondering what possible reason Tina would have for walking with me. I told her that.

“Don’t be silly.”

“No. Really. It’s what they’re thinking.” She stopped us.

“Don’t sell yourself short. You’re pretty good looking and you’re kind. Don’t let that go to your head. Are we still going out tomorrow night,” she asked. I nodded. “Good. I don’t plan on dating a loser ever again. Don’t sound like one. You’re not.”

“Thanks. I don’t think I’m a loser. I just feel like Newport surfer at Waimea on a big day.”

“I’m not sure what that means.”

“We had ten-foot waves here the other day and it was a big deal. Waimea is on the north shore of Hawaii and gets thirty-foot waves sometimes.”

“And you don’t want to wipe out on a thirty-foot wave.”

“That’s it, exactly.”

“Have you ever surfed a thirty-foot wave?”

I laughed. “No. Not even close.”

“Do you think you could?”

I started to answer but realized what she was really asking. I squeezed her hand and started us walking again.

“Got your one thing yet.”

“My mom told me that if I got any of you pregnant, she’d cut my dick off and feed it to the sharks.”

“She didn’t.”

“Not in those exact terms but the warning was just as clear. She told me not to make babies until I was ready to be a daddy, which is actually pretty good advice.”

“Do you always do what your mom says?”

“No. But I sort of like my parts right where they are and intact.”

“Probably best to err on the side of safety, then.”

“Probably. Settle up,” I said.

“What?”

“We had a deal. I kept my part. Your turn.”
