As I extenguished the candle in my jack-o-lantern and began to bring in all my holiday props, I noticed two young women walking down the sidewalk towa...d my direction. I couldn't recognise them at first because of their costumes, but as the pair aproached my doorstep, I saw that it was Lydia and Kimi. They were the two best friends of my next door neighbor's daughter, had recently graduated high school with her and I knew them both well. Lydia was the goth/emo girl of the neighborhood and always. I pushed the thoughts away and went back to staring at a cloud slowly changing color as its angle to the sun changed.One by one each of the four women in the pool came and kissed me. I told each of them how I loved them and treasured my relationship with them. I made sure to do that often; I didn't want to pass to another world unexpectedly someday and have left things like that unsaid. We had an unusual relationship with each other, a single male loved and intimate with these women who also. I remember the passionate way she said, ‘But I love my secret life. I love my body, my mind, my freedom. I don’t belong to anyone and no one can stop me from being me.’ No one had a clue what was going on between us. Except for a few glances and a slight smile, we were two people at opposite ends of the table. She knew I would be leaving in the morning and I wondered whether we would have another midnight snack. After dinner she said she was going to take a walk on the beach and did anyone else. “Oh, fuck, I’m so horny right now!” Amy said.“Me too,” I admitted, “I’m just not sure about…”“Oh, Brent, you’ll be fine, it’ll be hot! Lots and lots of couples have threesomes for fun. You’ll enjoy it, I promise,” she said as she touched my arm and tucked the key away inside her dress. She smiled at me as I turned the car onto the hotel drive.“Oh yay! We’re here!” Amy squealed.I stopped the car at the entrance and popped the trunk. A doorman opened the door for Amy as another young man.
