Part 1 Chapter 6
Thursday

OK, the twins are with cousin Artie. John is in the spare room with Miranda. Mike and Susan are with Megan. Jackie and Don are over with Candace and Kim. That leaves Carol and Aimee in the house. I have a girl on each side and one astride me, very actively astride me. That's one too many girls. Open your eyes, Fred.

"Candace?"

" I just... umm, that's nice. I figured it out last night. Uhhm, uhhm, uhhm."

"What.... What did you figure out? Ohhh, please keep that up."

"Al. You planned his security 'glitch'. You kept him away for us to decide. So, this is your uhhm... thank you. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank yoouuu!"

"Its still night out, why is your alarm going off." Aimee was, at best, semi-coherent when first waking.

"Army habits. Aimee, this is Candace. She will be in my Harem. Candace, Aimee will be in Sarah's. Sarah, Rebecca and Artie are in the other room. Also, John, Megan, Mike, Susan and Miranda are here someplace. Both of you should feel free to stay here and introduce your-selves around. Everyone in the house is going and you can both sample to your heart's content if you like. I have to get ready for work."

"No. Not like that, you aren't. Let me clean you two up!" Aimee crawled over, leaned in and started licking.

"Boss, Janet is out here. She is sure jumping about something."

"Hmm, smiles, Maggie? Or spitting fire."

"Grin is more like it."

"OK, Send her in. then lock the outside door, strip and join us."

"You got it, Boss." Fred could hear the smile over the phone line.

"Janet, Maggie said you were pretty worked up. Good news from Gillian?"

"6.7!"

"Great. That means this work is not wasted. Here's her list back. Her last alternate won't do. She will probably freak if any one mentions sex outside of marriage. The AI thinks she was abused someplace, but has seriously repressed the memories and her desires. She would crack up if she were in a Harem. I noticed that Gillian put her last and said last resort. Good instincts. Well, it looks like Robert is going to be giving her the big Birthday Present tonight. So, just so you don't feel left out..." at this point Maggie walked in wearing just her smile. "...Maggie and I are going to help you celebrate."

"Sarah, Gillian got a 6.7 on her CAP test. You need another girl."

"I've got it covered! We have three single girls on our back up lists. I will grab a guy and/or girl or two and go hunting. Lay Janet back and congratulate her for me."

"Again?"

"You partied while I could have been seducing teenaged women? See if I share any more with you!"

"Carrie, can you leave early?"

"Sure, Sarah. I put my notice in and I'm just marking time cleaning up little details.
What's up?"

"We need to go seduce an eighteen to twenty-year-old girl. We'll take my car and pick up Mike and Susan. Well?"

"Hmmm. If I look upon her as just someone else who will distract the horny guys and girls from me, then that's bad. If I look at her as another horny girl to help keep me happy, then that's good. That's a toss up."

"How about you look at her as another person to help wash the dishes and change diapers?"

"Sold!"

"First stop is the grocery store. She works in the coffee shop. Her name is Coral. Nineteen years old with a cap of 4.5 with some intelligence, about average aggression and some sex drive. Likes kids, but is not necessarily a fantastic mother. She is about average in that regard. She is very lovely and has decent customer service skills, but I haven't really had a chance to talk to her lately."

"There she is. Let's go get some lattes and see how she handles us." The foursome approached a lovely light-brown complexioned girl, obviously African-American but with very European features. She looked a bit like Halle Berry.

"Hello, Sarah. I haven't seen you in a while. What can I get for you?" Coral's eyes were red as if she had been crying.

"Hello Coral. Oh, dear. What's wrong, honey? You look like the roof caved in."

"Sorry, I am such a crybaby today. They just let us know that they are converting my building to condos. I can't afford 350k for a one-bedroom apartment, so I have to do some apartment hunting. The Swarm will be here in a couple of years and they are going Condo."

"That does seem short-sighted. But you seem tougher than that. What else is wrong? "

"My boyfriend left me. I told him about the baby yesterday and last night he was gone when I got home."

"Baby? Did you tell him that you were pregnant? Or something else?"

"Pregnant. I took the home test. Then I went to the doctor. They don't say the rabbit died any more, did you know that?"

"Yes dear. I did. OK, so you lost a loser boyfriend. Don't you think so, Mike?"

"Yup! An idiot. And obviously blind."

"Thank you. Both of you, but I need to take your orders."

"No one else is here, Dear. Here, get me my usual and whatever for the others. Get yourself something as well and then you'll sit down and talk with us. No talk, No tip." The sounds of the espresso machine covered the quiet talk of the foursome. They were still alone in the shop when she returned with the drinks.

"Thanks. Jill is on break for another five minutes before the big evening rush. I get weepy when I'm alone to think."

"Coral, you seem to have a couple of problems. In order from least important to most, someplace to stay, lack of companionship, taking care of a pregnancy then a baby, and the Swarm invasion. Sound right?"

"Yeah, but I would have put the place to stay higher than the lack of companionship."

"Well, It's certainly more critical in the near term, but in the long term, I think I am right. As it happens though, we can help you with all of your problems."

"You have a room for rent? Need an Au Pair?"

"Kind of, for both questions, actually. Coral, if this store was suddenly blocked off from outside and some Marines were yelling about a pick-up, would you go with us?"

"What? A pick-up? Here?" Coral looked around quickly.

"No! Not here. Not now. I just need to know if you would want to come with us if we were picked up. Here is my card."

"Wow, I haven't ever seen one this high. The four of you are a group?"

"Actually, the four of us are part of three groups. Kids, show her. Mike here is my Son. Susan is his girlfriend. Carrie is one of the ladies in my Harem. I have two guys, married men with delightful wives who are also in my Harem. Some more women including one girl who is younger than you, uhhm, eighteen, I think. And we have seven kids coming with us. My husband has his own Harem. And we will be sharing. We can provide a place to stay, help with the baby, companionship and a way off the planet. Soon. Interested?"

"Oh, Yessss!" The word stretched out with the intensity of the answer.

"OK, You probably know the ground rules and we can go over the details later. But there are major sticking points we should cover. One is that there will be several guys and lots of girls. My husband, my two guys and his two guys for starters. Mike, Sharon's dad and their teenaged friend Rickey are some of the rest. You still ok with this? Not all of them all the time, but those are who you might be with and probably with them all at one time or another."

"Ok. I can deal with that, uhh, I like sex!"

"Excellent, we do too. My daughter has a boyfriend and his dad. My twin Sister and her husband have two guys each, I think. My husband's sister and her husband have one guy apiece. My niece and my nephew each have one. Their boyfriend and girlfriend each have one. I think that's it. I may have lost count."

"What are you guys doing, filling an entire colony with family?' Coral was giggling, some of which was at the absurdity of the long list, but some was nervousness.

"No, just one large cul-de-sac of the colony. Fourteen households in twenty four habitat pods I think."

"Twenty six, Mom. Our own alien trailer park." Mike spoke up in a lazy fashion.

"If you say so, dear. Are you still with us, Coral? On a day-to-day basis you will see my two guys and my husband. Occasionally you will see his two guys if you are over at his place. Maybe my son or my son-in-law will come over, but remember, they do all have their own ladies. And my household will have seven other women to catch their eye. "

"OK, I can live with that and I understand about the guys being in charge. So...."

"Whoa! In my house it's me in charge. However, I have given the other volunteers in our family group, male and female, visitation privileges. As to my two male Harem males, there are two things. First, I can say do this or do that and everybody has to do it. If I tell you to work for the next month with Artie to make a baby, or just put on a show with him for me to watch, then you need to do that. Second, if you are approached by a guy in our Harems and feel like doing it, then go for it. If you don't feel like it, say no, just like around here. However, no fooling around with Artie if I tell you to make babies only with Bill. With me so far?"

"Yeah, that sounds OK. Better. So Mike and your husband can spread me any time, but not Artie and Bill. Is your husband that guy I see you with in here on Sunday afternoons? Really fit? Looks like a soldier?"

"Looks like a soldier because he is a soldier. Still runs five miles on the weekends, three miles on weekdays. Well, not so much this week though, he's too pooped." The ladies all grinned. "OK, next problem. I have a really strong sex drive. And I happen to like girls. I like to watch, I like to do and I like to be done to. What does that do for your being able to handle this?"

"Uhh. I am not sure. Wait. You mean ALL of those girls?"

"Yes, I will probably do all of them at least once. But mainly mine and Fred's."

"Ohh!" There was a disappointed little noise from Sharon.

"Don't be silly, Sharon. Obviously you and the other volunteer ladies are welcome anytime."

"So you will be with your 'son's girlfriend? Wait, you had a sister and a daughter in there too?"

"You have a good memory! It looks like we will have to jump to the last sticking point before we finish this one. Yes, I will have and have had sex with all of them and for that matter with my daughter's boyfriend and with my brother-in-law, and even with my son Mike here. Incest is not going to be a problem on the colony. The medical systems can take care of all of the inbreeding problems and we will make perfect babies. Hmmm, it looks like your friend is back and watching you impatiently, but we're still the only customers. Do you want to keep talking to us, or chase us off, in disgust."

"Stay! Please."

"OK, just a minute." Sarah walked over to the counter and talked quietly, then came back and sat down. Jill was smiling. "Ok, she will leave us alone unless it gets really busy."

"What did you tell her?"

"I told here we were interviewing you for a position and tipped her one hundred dollars to leave us alone. That was a good idea about the Au Pair, after all. Anyway, that's the worst of it. What do you think?"

"Well, your family looks nice, so that's good, but you can get rebuilt up there anyway, I heard, so I doubt that I will see any of you ugly even if you are, or were. If any of that even made any sense. And you guys are being nice and I think you ARE nice, but I thought my boyfriend was nice. I... I can handle the relative thing. As long as you leave kids alone?"

"Yes, Dear. The colony and ship AIs both say sex under fourteen is bad. And the AI is pretty ruthless. Oral sex under fourteen is allowed, but the colony Governor is limiting that to thirteen at the youngest. He has not really laid down that law yet, but he will as soon as he is official. Oh, I should let you know, my husband is going to be the colony Military Governor. I will actually be running the place from day-to-day as the colony administrator, while he is both my boss and boss of the military."

"Oh, Wow! Well that explains how you are sure of being picked up. OK, that just leaves the girl-on-girl thing. Look, I have never done that. I know some girls that do and they are OK to be around and all. I have uhh, noticed some girls and women that get me going a bit, but then I generally look for a guy to feed the fire. I have seen some videos, so at least I know what is going to happen. I could try it and I should be able to do it, but I won't guarantee to like it."

"Dear, it's not nearly as much fun for me if you don't like it. Try it! Give it until we get to the colony to be sure. If you don't like it then we will leave you out of our reindeer games, mostly. We also have the option to find a Volunteer who you might fit better with. Just like swapping roommates, but quite a bit more serious. OK?"

"Deal."

"What time do you get off tonight, Coral? We'll help you move. All you really need is sexy underwear and maybe some shoes to go with them. You will stay with us tonight. And you had better tell your boss that today is your last day."

"Gillian, what are you doing here? Why weren't you at school today?" Sandy was happy, but surprised to see Gillian. She hadn't come to school today and two days ago she had told all of her friends that she had to cancel the Friday night birthday party due to a 'family problem'.

"Can I come in? I need to talk to you before your parents get home. I only have about thirty minutes before I have to leave and it's really serious." Gillian walked inside as Sandy closed the door behind her. Sandy was Gillian's best friend. She was about five foot two inches tall and weighed about one hundred forty pounds. The extra weight was about evenly split between general overweight fat and truly excessive breasts. She could hardly do anything except mild exercises in the PE classes. She couldn't throw, run, play basketball, tennis, volleyball, or any other sports activity. She did like to ride her bicycle for her exercise, as her breasts did not bounce around and throw her off balance while doing that. Many of the boys hounded her. Some with insults, some with assaults. Several of the girls also figured she was fair game for insults or general derision. Many of the others thought of her mainly as competition. "Sandy, we have to talk. Sit down." Gillian pulled out her brand new CAP card. "I took my CAP test today. I got a 6.7 and I've got a special chance to leave pretty soon with one extra person, but all of my choices have to be cleared in advance. You are on my approved list! Do you want to come with me?"

"Yeah, uhh, what do I have to do? I mean you will have some stud and he gets us pregnant, but what else?"

"Good question. Ok, first, you can't tell ANYONE. I didn't want your dad to go with us. I think you know why. He is just such a hater. And I did put your mom on my back-up list, but well, the AI says that she would freak if she had to have sex with anyone else. So I need a guy and a Mother figure. You will be having sex with the guy, so will the mother and I. However, I found out recently that I really like sex with other girls and sharing a guy with a girl and... Well, are you willing to have sex with me?" Gillian really wanted to hear a yes, She could get by with any of three guys and a couple of mother figures, but there was only one Sandy.

"Ohh, I never... I wouldn't want to do tha..." Gillian cut Sandy's answer short.

"OK, never mind. I can get some from the mother and some others." Gillian was obviously unhappy, but unwilling to leave her friend.

"You didn't let me finish! I would not want to do that with just anyone. But you're my best friend and you're cute enough that I could consider it even if you weren't. Uhh, can I ask a favor?" She looked down at her chest. She couldn't even see her lap from here.

"Breast reduction will be scheduled first chance we get. But they will still be pretty large. And I get to sample them first. Upstairs. Right now. Oh, did I tell you. I am going to ask your hotty cousin Mark and his Mom. And you are going to have to help me convince them, in their bed. Tomorrow. My Mom and Dad will be joining us. Now, upstairs, wench! I only have twenty minutes and I have to get warmed up for a hot date tonight.
