She pulled away from me, and I could see the happiness on her face when she answered 'I'd love to!'
In the shower, she proved to be a playful, affectionate handful.
Clean and dried, I put on a pair of slacks and shirt, while Crissy put on a one-piece dress that made her look even cuter. When the others got back, they found us in the den: Crissy sitting at one end of the couch while I had been taking a nap with my head in her lap, with some classical music in the background. Claire, Evelyn, and Bonita seemed surprised to see us that way; Kelly, Jan, and Sheri just looked amused. Kelly came over to tell Crissy that her sister had gotten her something, too, and took Crissy's place so the youngster could go back with Jan and the others to check out what they'd gotten. Kelly gave me a kiss, then said 'I just look at her and see that you made her happy, Dan.'
'She liked to have killed me in the process, though', I replied.
Kelly gave me a soft laugh and said 'Yeah, she's pretty enthusiastic, once you get her started!'
I looked up at her and asked 'You had to get her started? I think she was already running at top speed when I got her!'
Kelly giggled, and said 'Well, she was still a little nervous when she was with me.'
I gave Kelly the fisheye and said 'Well, she isn't nervous NOW. I kinda wish you'd warned me first, though.'
Kelly smiled before telling me 'Now don't pretend that you didn't enjoy yourself. Anybody with eyes can see that SHE did!'
'Well, yeah, it was fun – but not as much fun as YOU, though.'
Even though she laughed, I knew Kelly was delighted to hear that before she eased herself out from under my head. She knelt down and kissed me again before telling me 'We – well, mostly them – got some nice things while we were out. I think you're going to like what you see when they get ready for bed tonight!'
I gave Kelly the fisheye again, and she laughed before standing up and heading back to join the others.
When the lot of them got through showing each other all the stuff they'd bought, it was back out to the den for them – and time for supper. I let them talk me into burgers on the grill if they'd do the chips, salads, and iced tea. To the amusement of Kelly and Jan, and the bafflement of the others, Sheri and Crissy insisted on sitting on either side of me and feeding me. I appreciated the attention, and desperately needed the food after what had happened that afternoon. After we'd all finished (I went through TWO burgers), Jan and Kelly told us that they'd be the ones to clean up, and left me and the girls sitting outside on the deck.
We had been chatting for a little while when Kelly and Jan came back out to join us. That seemed to be the signal for Evelyn to ask 'Sheri? Crissy? Why have you two been paying so much attention to Dan? Its like you're almost hanging off of him.'
The two of them had one of their silent conversations before Sheri answered 'I think both of us are doing it to show him how much we appreciate everything he's done for us.'
Clearly puzzled, Bonita asked 'What has he done for you that he hasn't done for us?'
'He made women out of us', Crissy answered.
The other three looked confused for a bit before Evelyn asked 'Made women out of you?' – then, a moment later 'You mean you… you had sex with him? That you're not virgins any more?', amazed.
Crissy and Sheri both smiled at her before Sheri answered 'No, we're not virgins, any more. But we didn't just have sex with him. We made love with him', followed by Crissy's 'Making love is way better than just having sex!' – accompanied by Sheri's broad smile and nod of affirmation.
Stunned, the other three just sat there looking at them – and occasionally, me.
Finally, Claire asked them 'Why? Why now, and why Dan?'
Sheri spoke first, saying 'When I went with him last night, I thought that I was just going to let him have my virginity. It's something I've been thinking about for a while, and I thought that after what the others told us about him, he would be the perfect one for my first time. I mean, you remember how they told us how patient and gentle and everything he was with them, right?' They nodded their heads, and she went on 'Well, they were right – he IS all those things. But before we got that far, we started talking – yeah, talking! I asked him some questions, and when he gave me the answers I started thinking about them differently, and asked him some more stuff. When he answered that, all of a sudden I just understood about how he and Kelly and all of them could be so nice to us, even after we told them how we just started out using them. When that happened, I suddenly realized what its like to love someone as much as he and Kelly and Jan do – not just each other, but us, too. And I knew that I loved him, too, the same way. Then we made love – and it was wonderful, way better than I thought it could be.'
Crissy spoke up then, telling them 'Dan was already awake when I got up this morning, and he let me sit in his lap. Sheri and I talked last night, and she told me that her and Dan had made love. She also talked to me about some of the things he said, and I was kind of understanding it, but not quite. So when I was on Dans lap this morning, I asked him to take my cherry, too.' She looked down at her lap for a moment, then raised her head again to tell them 'I thought that was something I HAD to do, mostly because Sheri did it. But Dan told me that he wouldn't make love with me because I wanted to do it for what he said were the wrong reasons. I didn't understand, at first, and started to get upset with him and wanted him to tell me why. He did, and that's when I realized how much he loved me. After that, I knew he was right to tell me he wouldn't take my virginity – but knowing how much he and Kelly and Jan loved me, I couldn't help but love him, and them, right back. So after all of you went to go shopping, I asked him to make love with me. He did, and it was just wonderful, like Sheri said. I know that I still have a lot to learn about everything they've told us, but now I know how it is that they can love and trust each other as much as they do. Sheri and I have both been with him, but we haven't said a word to each other about what we did; I know he made her happy, and he sure as Hell made me happy, so there's nothing for us to say to each other about it.'
Sheri spoke up again then, telling them 'What Crissy said. He made me happy, so whatever the two of them did, it made her happy, so it doesn't matter to me what it was. I'm just happy that she's happy.'
The other three were looking at Crissy and Sheri as though expecting them to suddenly sprout wings and start flying around the back yard; it was Claire that asked 'What is it, then? What did he tell you, or you suddenly understood, or whatever? What is it that you know now that you didn't know before?'
The twins 'talked' again with their eyes before Sheri answered 'What I realized is that Dan and the rest love us. It's really that simple – and that powerful. If you'll think about it, you'll realize that they love you, too – and you'll realize how much they love you.'
Crissy let them consider that for bit before adding 'Don't you wonder how Kelly can love him so much? Why she thinks she can trust him enough to let him make love with Jan and the others – and now me and Sheri, too? Try to understand how much he loves them that he doesn't mind them making love with each other, even when he isn't with them. Think about all the times that you've seen one of them do something for one of the others, without being asked, just because they know the other person needs it. Remember what Jan told us about getting the stuff so Dan and Kelly could clean up after they showed us what sex was about? How much do you think she must love them, and them love her, if they can just DO stuff like that for each other? Especially without any of them having to say anything?'
'What you saw us doing was us doing something for Dan, after all he's done for us – because now we understand what its like to love someone that much. Because we love him – and Kelly and Jan and the others – that much, too. And we know they love us, the same way.' Sheri informed them.
At that point, Jan spoke up, saying 'If Dan was only after their bodies, Kelly and I wouldn't have minded – because he keeps both of US so happy we can barely stand it. But we know Dan, and know that he wasn't just trying to have sex with them; he was showing them what making love is all about. And believe me, there is a world of difference! As Dan told me once, sex is about making your body feel good; when you make love, you get your heart and your mind involved, too. As nice as the physical part of it is, when you get your mind and your heart in on it, too – well, like I said, it's a world of difference.'
'Everything we've been trying to tell you and teach you since you started coming over here is that if you can get what's in your heart and what's in your mind working together, you'll find out just how happy you can be with other people', Kelly added.
A couple of minutes went by when all of us were surprised by Evelyn's sudden exclamation of 'Oh, fuck!'
Looking at Kelly, she said 'Everything you were teaching us in your class – it was to try and help us understand this, wasn't it?'
Kelly just smiled, and Evelyn looked at Jan and said 'And you… for anybody that cares enough to really think
