Stephanie's parents arrived a couple of minutes later. Stephanie introduced all of us to her minister, Rev. David Smith. He conducted the rehearsal mu...h as Rev. Hollinger had done last weekend. Caleb was Trevor's best man. I stood beside Caleb, joined by Shawn then Ryan. Stephanie's friend from school, Lauren Patton, was the maid of honor. Penny and Shawn's fiancée Jada stood beside Lauren. Josh and Damian were serving as ushers.Mr. Kolmar arranged to have the rehearsal dinner down the street. However I also thought of it as an opportunity to seduce Jack to sleep with me. I figured alchohol would help so I poured us some diet coke and whiskey. I handed him the glass and said, "How have you been?" He responded, "Ok, I decided to take a few years off from school before going to college." I went to a college in California and my parents lived in Georgia, so I was out of the loop with a lot of things. I told him, " that's cool. If your scared to go, don't be it's actually a lot of fun!". It rarely rained for long in the summer, but when it did, we would hang out together in the cabin. Tante Belle would make us coffee with her "cafetiere a piston", a device known as a French press. She would walk me through the process, as it was very important to her. "Premier" she said in French, then corrected herself. "First… you bring water to almost boil." Her eyes would lock onto mine. "Almost, presque, do not boil" her accent was intoxicating. She would stir the water into the. All that was happening together with theatmosphere created by the incense, music and candleswas getting all of us hotter and hotter and we probablyall were wondering where this would end up. Marie and I always prepared ourselves mentally forany sexual exploration and agreed to limits. We feltthe limits would be a guide and they were generalenough that they gave enough latitude to be enjoyableuntil we could feel comfortable with going further. At this point we were comfortable and I.
