Chapter 17

Walking into his backyard, Ed inspected the privacy fence satisfied with the job he had done. The posts were straight, there were no gaps in the pickets, and it was strong. The tops of the pickets were flat rather than pointed. There was no chance of impaling a kid that tried to climb over it. He had finished installing it the day before.

The noise of Kelly and Beth coming through the gate caught his attention. Turning he saw that they were struggling to carry in four folding lounge chairs. Coming to their aid, he took two of the chairs, one from each woman. Following Kelly, she walked to a spot near the back door of his house and looked around. Setting her chair down, she said, “This looks like a good spot. We should be able to get lots of the morning sun here.”

As she set her chair down next to Kelly’s, Beth replied, “Perfect. Not too far to the kitchen from here either.”

Setting the other two chairs down, Ed wondered what the big deal was. If all they wanted to do was sit outside, they didn’t need a privacy fence for that. Besides, the view from John’s backyard was much better. The only view from his yard was the neighbor’s house behind him and with the new fence the view was now limited to the neighbor’s roof. He set the other two lawn chairs down and started unfolding them.

Turning around, Ed was shocked to see that both women were stripping. His cock immediately reacted to the sight by swelling. Stuttering, as he looked around to see if anyone could see them, he asked, “What are you doing?”

Beth answered, “We’re getting some sun.”

“Why did you think we wanted a privacy fence?” asked Kelly.

Watching them strip was a treat to the eye. Looking over at him, Kelly said, “If you’re planning on staying out here, you have to get out of those clothes.”

Uneasy, Ed started undressing. It felt very strange to be undressing in the middle of the day in his back yard. Watching the women as he undressed, he noticed that Beth and Kelly had nice tans that covered their whole body except for the outline of a bikini. He wondered where they had gotten tans, but then realized that both of them lived in apartment complexes with swimming pools. As his clothes came off, it was clear that he had never spent a minute sunbathing. His hands and face were tanned, but the rest of him was a bleached white. His erection was a slightly darker color, the head almost a deep purple color.

Kelly reached into her purse and pulled out a bottle of suntan lotion. Winking at Beth, she said, “I wonder where we can find a man to put this sun tan lotion on us?”

Licking her lips, Beth answered, “I don’t know. There’s this naked man here who looks like he wants to cover us with some kind of lotion.”

Moving to kneel before him, Kelly slowly reached up and rubbed his cock. The action caused him to moan. Beth knelt beside Kelly and started to lick his balls. The sensation blew his mind. Kelly slowly took his erect cock in her mouth. Working her tongue around the sensitive head, she quickly drove him close to orgasm. Looking down at them, Kelly was looking up at him with his cock in her mouth and Beth was peeking around Kelly with a ball in her mouth. As his scrotal sack tightened, the pressure of her mouth around his ball reached a point close to being painful. The ball slipped out of her mouth as one of her fingers ran up to tickle his asshole. Kelly increased the sucking action on his cock.

As his legs trembled, Ed looked up into the bright blue Arizona sky feeling like the Gods and Goddesses were smiling upon him. Beth massaged his asshole with her finger while she licked his balls. Kelly was crating major sensations as she licked his cock and sucked on it with increased pressure. He groaned and said, “I’m coming.”

Within seconds, sperm burst forth from his cock. Kelly backed off from his cock to capture as much of his come as possible. From next to her, Beth said, “You have to share it.”

When Ed finally finished his orgasm, Kelly turned to Beth and kissed her. Staring down at them, he could see Kelly transfer some of his come to Beth. The sight was incredibly sexy. When the kiss had been completed, Kelly stood and kissed him. As he opened his mouth, her tongue entered it pushing some of his come into it. He froze, not knowing what to do and then swallowed it rather than spit it out. Even as he swallowed, he thought that it wasn’t that bad of an experience.

In his ear, Beth whispered, “Oh God, she just fed you some of your come. That is the sexiest thing I’ve ever seen. Can I do it the next time I give you a blowjob?”

Breaking off the kiss, Kelly said, “You’ll have to share it with me, too.”

Unable to resist the persuasive nature of the women, Ed answered, “If it gives you pleasure, I can deny you nothing.”

Ed went to work putting sun block on the women. He took his time, making sure that every part of their bodies was covered with the thick cream. He made sure that their private parts were well covered. In fact, he required them to demonstrate that he had paid enough attention by having an orgasm.

When it was his turn to get covered, the women made sure that he was well covered everywhere. Much to his frustration, they left him with an erection, saying that they didn’t want to have him think they were easy. After covering him, they went to their chairs and laid back getting some sun. Only when his erection started to wilt did he sit down in his chair.

After thirty minutes of lying in the sun, Kelly looked over at Ed and said “You better put some more sun block on your cock. I’d hate to see that get burned.”

Beth laughed as she said, “It would be a pity if you couldn’t use it for a week. I’ve gotten used to getting it regularly.”

Ed groaned at the thought of a sunburned cock. He couldn’t imagine anything more painful. He reached over and put on more sun block. They had been teasing him ever since they had applied the sun block earlier. He hoped that he would find an opportunity to get back at them. He chuckled to himself at the idea of dying his cock bright red and imagined the look of disappointment on their faces when he showed it to them.

Ed looked at the two women and he knew he was the luckiest guy in the world. They were very different in build and looks, but both of them were gorgeous. He thought about it for a second and decided he was one of two luckiest guys in the world. John could have all of this too. He asked, “So how are we going to ask John to join our little family?”

Kelly answered, “You’re going to ask him.”

“No I’m not.”

Surprised at the flat refusal, Beth glared at him. “Why not? He’s your best friend.”

“Yes, he is. Moreover, I want to keep him as a friend. If I ask him and he says no, then that could really hurt our friendship.”

Kelly and Beth looked at each other with a smile. They understood they had stumbled into an area of male sexuality where they didn’t belong. Kelly asked, “So how would you go about it?”

He smiled as he asked, “So how did you go about it with me?”

In response, Kelly laughed and said, “If I remember correctly, I told you what I wanted and asked if you were interested in staying with me in light of my desires.”

Beth asked, “When did you tell him that?”

“She told me that the day I met you at the hospital,” replied Ed as he remembered that day. It had been a very pivotal day in his life. He added, “that was right after she told me that she was going to have you for a wife.”

Beth shot a look at Kelly. This was the first that she had heard of Kelly’s early interest in her. She asked, “Why did you say that?”

Kelly blushed at the memory. She answered, “When John suggested that you were a natural submissive, I looked at you for the first time as a woman rather than a doctor. I liked what I saw and knew at that moment that I wanted you.”

Beth looked down at the ground as though she was afraid to look at Kelly. She said, “Ever since my recovery from my breakdown, I’ve not been a submissive. Are you disappointed?”

She answered, “No. That wasn’t exactly what attracted me to you.”

Ed had watched the exchange. Every time the subject of John arose, the two women always talked around it until it wasn’t the subject anymore. Individually, both of them would admit that they really wanted John to join into the family. He asked, “So how are you going to broach the subject to John?”

Kelly sighed at being brought back to the original subject. She answered, “I don’t know.”

A voice coming from behind startled them. “You might try telling him directly.”

Beth had jumped out of her chair at the sound of the voice. She spun around shouting, “John, don’t sneak up on us like that!”

John smiled as he asked, “Feeling a little guilty, are we?”

Ed watched with glee as the women squirmed. He stood up and walked around to where John was standing. He winked at John and laughed at the looks on the women’s faces. He said, “I’m going to go get some tea. I might take a walk around town, since there’s no telling how long you’ll be here. I’ll be back after a while.”

After picking up his clothes, he went into the house. He dressed in the kitchen where he could watch the actions in the backyard. It was impossible to hear what was being said, but he could tell by the dynamics that there was a bit of tension. Once dressed, he fixed himself a glass of iced tea and drank it while watching as Kelly and Beth talked with John. What ever John was saying, it had very different effects on the two women. At one point, Beth looked very uncomfortable while Kelly looked slightly angry.

When John left, the discussion between the two women grew much more animated. It wasn’t clear what was being said, but it was clear that there was something that they disagreed on. Grabbing his near empty iced tea glass, Ed headed out the front door to follow John. He was just in time to see John go around to the back of his house. Ed followed him.

Ed came around the corner of the carrying his own glass of iced tea. He had only a single sip left in it. He swirled the glass taking pleasure in the sound of the ice cubes rattling in it. Ed calmly said, “Hello, John. I guess you shook up the women a bit.”

“Did they tell you that?” asked John. He was curious about the reaction of the women to his position concerning the group marriage. He imagined that they were probably arguing now about the difference of opinion between Beth and Kelly about Ed.

“Nah, I watched from the house. I got dressed, waited a bit, and then came over here.” Ed was hoping that John would let him know what they had discussed. He looked around for Rover and spotted the cat curled up in the shade taking a nap.

“Did you hear what we discussed?”

“No, but I could guess,” replied Ed as looked off at the horizon. Without waiting for an invitation he sat down in the chair next to John. This was going to be a long discussion and it concerned a topic that he wanted to avoid. He didn’t want to come out and say that he was okay with the idea of becoming lovers. The fact was, he wasn’t sure how he felt about the idea of having sex with a man. Part of him was attracted to the idea and part of him was repulsed. He turned to John and said, “You told them that you wanted to hear it from me. Am I right?”

“Yes, you are,” answered John. He added, “I know that you don’t want to say it outright until you get some sign from me about how I feel about it. Am I right?”

“Yes, you are.” Relief filled his voice as he didn’t have to put into words what he wanted to hear from John. He glanced over at Rover wondering what the cat thought, but it just slept in the shade.

John looked at his right foot. He decided to approach the subject in rather indirect fashion. In a flat tone of voice, he said, “I’ve been raped twice in my life. The first time by a female and the second by a male.”

“Oh! Shit!” Ed stared at John unable to imagine what it must have been like to be raped.

“The thing about both times, they weren’t about the sex. There was a violence and utter lack of regard about how I felt about it.” John paused, “Now, you know how much I enjoy sex with women.”

“Yes, I do.” Ed had seen John with Beth. There was no doubt that John enjoyed women.

“Well, getting raped by a female didn’t interfere with my ability to get pleasure out of sex with a woman.”

“I can see that. They are totally different things.” The topic of rape had always bothered Ed, in some fashion that was deeper than normal outrage, and he didn’t know why. Perhaps one day, he would have to sit down and explore his feelings on that subject. For now, he wanted to understand what John had to say about it.

John turned the subject to the matter at hand. He stated, “Likewise, I don’t think getting raped by a male will affect my ability to get pleasure out of sex with a man.”

Ed considered what John had said. He refilled his glass from the pitcher of iced tea as a way of masking his hesitation. He had to ask, “So do you get pleasure out of sex with a man?”

“I don’t know. I’ve never done it,” replied John. He looked over at Ed wondering what the cowboy was thinking.

Ed suddenly laughed at the situation. Slapping his thigh with a loud clap, he said, “So here we are, two scared virgins. Neither of us wants to admit it. Damn, aren’t we a pair?”

“Yes we are.”

“Well, if I was to lose my cherry I can’t think of a better man.” The words had come out almost as soon as he had thought them. It was too late to take back what he had said. He grasped the arms of the chair in an iron grip. His hands would have shaken if he hadn’t had them held so tight against the arms of the chair. He watched John out of the corner of his eyes, waiting for some sort of reaction.

“I agree. You’d be my pick.”

Ed relaxed a little. At least he hadn’t been called a faggot. The real problem was what if either one of them really hated it. What about the marriage that Kelly wanted if that happened? He took a deep breath and in a rush, said, “I don’t think either of us would want to be a virgin if we were to...”

As Ed stopped in embarrassment, John completed it. “Yes, we had better do it with each other before I agree to what Kelly wants.”
