Kim giggled as she squeezed Tom. "I know, I want to hear all about the prom and your weekend in Florida," Kim said. "That's not what we need to talk about," Tom said. His body stiffened in Kim's arms. Kim relaxed her grip and looked up at Tom. They stared into each other's eyes for several moments. Kim continued to smile while Tom tried to compose his thoughts and feelings. In the plane, after dropping Frank off in Toledo, Tom thought long and hard about what happened while he was in Florida. He couldn't get Molly out of his mind or, more importantly, his heart. "We need to talk about us, Kim. I, um, well…" "You fell for Molly, didn't you?" Kim said. She kept smiling as she watched Tom's face go slack. "Tom, let's sit down." Tom and Kim sat on their bed. She took his hand, holding it with both of her hands. Kim twisted, pulling one leg under her so she could face Tom. "It's okay you know. I kind of thought this would happen if you went to the prom, and spent the weekend with Molly. If you haven't noticed, Molly likes you-she likes you a lot. I knew the night you came to our stateroom after you two talked. Do you remember that night?" Kim said. Tom swallowed and nodded his head. "After that night, Molly couldn't keep her eyes off you. I knew that she wanted to get closer to you. She talked to me about how nice she thought you were and I told her you were a sweetheart. That's why I suggested that you take her to the prom," Kim said. "What about us, Kim?" Tom said softly. "What about us? You're my cousin; we're family and always will be. I love you with all my heart. That will never change no matter what happens between you and Molly, or any other girl." "I do like Molly. She is sweet and fun. Honey, if something develops between Molly and me-I don't know." Tom sighed as he once again tried to compose his thoughts. "If Molly and I start dating, it will have to be me and her." Nodding, Kim said, "I know. Molly's relationship with Kathy and Eddie isn't good for her. I know I couldn't be in that kind of relationship. No matter how they try to treat her as an equal, Molly will always be an outsider. Eddie and Kathy meant well, but I don't think their relationship with Molly can last." "I couldn't do that to Molly or anyone else, Kim. If, and I do mean if, Molly and I get together, she will be first and foremost. She deserves what she wants," Tom said. "Oh, Sweetie, Molly wants you! She wants you bad," Kim said with a giggle. "Does that mean you and me…" Tom began to say. "Tom, you and I can still have sex together if that's what you're wondering. At least for now. I don't know what will happen in the future. When we move to Florida, you may not want to fuck me anymore. Regardless, it's sex, not a life long commitment. "Let's face it, we're different-our families I mean. Sex isn't what makes our relationships what they are. Sex is fun for me and I'd be lying if I said I didn't love it. Ever since the first time, I have craved sex. I don't know, maybe I'm weird or something," Kim said. Tom chuckled. "If craving sex makes a person weird, then I'm weird too! Kim, I'm just confused right now. I don't know what I want." "I think I know what I want. I want to have fun. I want to go out with other boys and not have you, or anyone else, get mad at me. We are going to meet new people after we move and I might find a boy, or boys, that I want to date. Tom, do you like Molly?" Kim said. "Yes, I told you I do," Tom replied. "Well, if you do, you should call her and let her know you got home okay," Kim said. "Oh shit, I forgot I told Molly I would call her," Tom said as he jumped up. He took the piece of paper with Molly's number out of his wallet and dialed the phone. "Hi, Molly, it's Tom. I wanted to let you know I'm home," Tom said. "That's good. How was your flight?" Molly said. "It was fine. We had good weather so it wasn't too bumpy," Tom said. "We cleaned the house and the boat." Molly paused, took a deep breath, and said, "Tom, I miss you." Tom glanced at Kim. She sat on the bed, watching and listening. "I miss you too, Molly," Tom said. Kim began grinning. Molly giggled. "Um, did Kim tell you she called me today?" Tom looked at Kim and furrowed his brow. "No, Kim didn't tell me that she called you. What did she want?" "Just girl talk. She is so cool," Molly said. "Is she there?" "Um, yeah, she's sitting next to me." "Can I talk to her for a minute please?" Molly said. "Sure, I guess so," Tom replied, feeling a bit miffed. He handed the phone to Kim. "Molly wants to talk to you." "Hey there," Kim said. "What's up?" Molly and Kim talked for a few minutes. Tom listened, but Kim only responded to Molly with a series of, "Yeah, okay, that's cool," and giggles. Then, Kim reached over and put her hand on Tom's crotch. She laughed and handed the phone back to Tom. "Hi, Sweetie, is Kim doing what I told her to do?" Molly said. "Um, what did you tell her to do?" Tom said. "I told her to make sure that you didn't get too horny. I don't want you to go looking for someone else," Molly said. Kim lowered Tom's zipper. He tried to push her away, but Kim didn't let it faze her. Once Tom's pants were open, Kim pulled out his penis. "What are you two up to?" Tom said to Molly. "Well, I'm lying on my bed and I'm naked. I'm playing with my pussy, imagining it's your fingers inside me. If I'm right, Kim is playing with your beautiful cock. I'm imagining that it's my mouth around it," Molly said. Kim took Tom's cock in her mouth. While she bobbed her head up and down, Molly told Tom what she was doing to herself. It took a moment, but Tom got into the playfulness. He began telling Molly what he would be doing to her if she were there. The strange phone- sex lasted for about fifteen minutes. Molly let out a groan when she came. A moment later, Tom came in Kim's mouth. "Damn, that was so hot!" Tom said. "It was hot for me too, Sweetie. Make sure you take care of Kim," Molly said. "It wouldn't be fair to her if you didn't." "Is this what I have to look forward to until we move down to Florida?" Tom said. "Yes," Kim and Molly said at the same time. "Tom, you know how I feel about you-I love you. I also know how close you and Kim are. When we're together, we can talk about the future, but for now this is what I want," Molly said. "What about Eddie and Kathy?" Tom said. Molly giggled and said, "Maybe I'll call you when I fool around with them. We can have a phone-sex foursome." Kim sat up next to Tom. She put her ear close to the phone so she could hear what Molly said, and Molly could hear her. "Molly, when I get to Florida, you will be my girlfriend-mine alone. We may fool around with the others, but we will be a couple, not a threesome," Tom said. "You're damn right, Tom," Kim said. She giggled and added, "I hope you two will invite me to join you once in awhile." "We will, won't we, Tom?" Molly said. "Hell yeah!" Tom said, causing Kim and Molly to laugh. "He's a horny boy, isn't he?" Kim said. "Would we want it any other way, Kim?" Molly replied. "No," Kim said with a giggle. "I'll talk to you later, Molly. You and Tom can talk without me now." Kim left the room after kissing Tom's cheek. "Molly, you know you don't have to do this, don't you? I can wait until I see you again," Tom said. "That's what Kim said, but I want to. That is if you do," Molly said. "I also told Kim I didn't mind if you two slept together-in fact, I insisted that you do. Tom, I love you. I know this is very sudden and it's going to take time for you to adjust. I can wait." "I love you too, Molly. I'm not sure what I'll do." "Whatever you decide, I'll support you. Isn't that what people in love do?" Molly said. "Yes, that's exactly what people in love do. Um, don't you find all of this a bit weird?" Tom said. "No, not really. You know, a few day ago I was in a relationship that could never get any better than it is. I love Eddie and Kathy, but I don't think I could go on sharing forever. It's as if you're my knight in shining armor and that you flew into my life to rescue me. "I know it sounds silly, but that's how I feel. Tom, I have talked to Kim about this, about us. She told me she was happy for us," Molly said. "I wish you were here. I want to hold you so bad," Tom said. "I'll be there in a few weeks. You can hold me as much as you want then," Molly said. "I should get going. Eddie and Kathy are going to pick me up. We're going out tonight." "Okay, have fun," Tom said. "I'll call you tomorrow, Sweetie. I love you," Molly said. "I love you. Hey, have I told you that you have a nice ass?" "Yeah, and it's all yours. I'll talk to you later, Sweetie," Molly said. "Bye, talk to you tomorrow," Tom replied. Tom waited until Molly hung up before hanging up his telephone. He sat on the bed, thinking about all that happened, and the strange conversation. Smiling, I got up to find Kim. * * * * Molly thought about Tom while she showered, sighing as she thought about the day they would be together again. Molly giggled when she thought about the phone call she'd had with Tom. The idea of having phone sex with him was Kim's idea. Having Kim be part of it was Molly's idea. Kim called Molly while Tom was flying home. The two girls talked for an hour about the things that transpired over the weekend. Molly told Kim that she was in love with Tom. Kim reassured Molly that it was okay. During the conversation, Kim told Molly that she was ready to move on. Kim confessed that she hoped that Tom and Molly would get together. That was the reason she suggested Tom go to the Prom. Molly asked why Kim thought she would want to be with Tom. Kim told her that she knew that Tom liked Molly, and felt that Molly liked him. Kim told Molly about how much Lisa hurt Tom when she broke up with him. Kim also told Molly that she didn't think she would hurt Tom and that it was important to her. Molly promised Kim that she would never hurt Tom. Finished in the shower, Molly dried off and began doing her hair. Eddie and Kathy would be there to pick her up soon and she wanted to be ready. She put on a pair of shorts and then went to her closet to pick out a top. "What time are you leaving?" Laura asked her daughter. Laura stood in the doorway of Molly's bedroom, watching her get ready. "In a few minutes, Mom," Molly replied as she took a top from a hanger. She turned around to look at her mom as she pulled the top over her head. "What are you kids planning to do tonight? Don't forget you have school in the morning," Laura said. "I want to talk to Eddie and Kathy. Um, you know, about Tom," Molly said. She adjusted her clothes while looking in the mirror. "I see. Just what are you going to tell them?" "I have to tell them that I'm Tom's girlfriend now, Mom." "So, I guess you're planning to break up with Kathy and Eddie then," Laura said. Molly looked at her mom and shrugged her shoulders. "You don't have to you know. I understand things are changing, but that doesn't mean you can't still be close with them." Molly sat on the edge of her bed. "What do you mean? Tom loves me and wants me for his girlfriend. I love Tom." Laura smiled at her daughter. She knew how easy it was for a sixteen-year-old girl to think that infatuation and lust was love. Laura could remember her youth, and the times she thought she was in love, only to find out it was something else. When the idea of Tom taking Molly to the prom arose, Laura and Anne talked about it for a long time. The two moms agreed to let nature take its course. "That doesn't mean you can't love Kathy and Eddie too. Your relationship may change, but they're still your friends. Don't forget how much they helped you when you broke up with Lenny," Laura said. "I know, Mom. I talked to Kim about it. We decided that we would all remain friends-good friends. When Tom, and the rest of them, moves down here, we'll see what happens. I just know that Tom and I will be together though." Molly said. Nodding, Laura said, "I'm sure you will, Honey. I have to ask you something. If you and Tom do become serious, will you be upset about my job?" Molly took a moment to think about her mom's question. It was one thing for her mom to work for her friends' parents, but she wondered if that would change when she and Tom was a couple. Molly knew that her mom loved what she did, even if it was domestic work. "No, Mom, it won't be a problem. I know you love your job," Molly said. Laura smiled, walked over to Molly, and sat next to her. She put her arm around her daughter's shoulders, pulling her closer. "Thank you, Molly." Molly giggled and said, "I love you, Mom." Laura gave Molly a hug. They got up and left, walking to the living room. A few moments later, Eddie knocked on the front door. Molly told her mom she would see her later and left the house. "Hi, Eddie," Molly said. "Hey, Baby, how are you doing?" Eddie replied. He put his hand in the small of Molly's back. "Great. Where are we going?" "I thought we'd head over to my house. Brad and Jenny are there," Eddie replied. Molly shrugged her shoulders. She'd hoped they could go somewhere private so she could talk with Eddie and Kathy. Eddie opened the door of the van, holding it so Molly could get in. "Hi, Sweetie," Kathy said from the front seat. Molly grinned and said, "Hi." She began to sit down, but Kathy stopped her. "What this, don't I get a kiss?" Kathy said. Molly giggled, moved between the seats of the van, and gave Kathy a chaste kiss. Kathy put her hand behind Molly's head, pulled her close, and kissed her hard. The two girls held the kiss for a moment. Eddie rubbed Molly's back. He turned her around and gave her a tender kiss too. "Just because you have a new boyfriend doesn't mean Kathy and I don't love you," Eddie said. Kneeling between the two seats, Molly looked back and forth between Eddie and Kathy. "I was so afraid you two would hate me," Molly said. "We told you that we wanted you to be happy, and we meant it, Sweetie. Eddie and I would never hate you. If you want to be exclusive with Tom, we'll understand," Kathy said. Molly grinned. She stretched up, kissing Kathy. "Um, I don't know about that. For now, Tom and I agreed to keep things the way they are-at least until he moves down here." Eddie put his arm around Molly. He gave her breast a squeeze and said, "Good, let's get going. I think we've belabored this enough, don't you?" Molly pushed her chest against Eddie's hand. She gave him a kiss and moved to the seat behind Kathy. "Yeah, I think we have. Thanks you, guys. You know I love both of you." Eddie drove to his house where Brad and Jenny waited for them. The five teens sat outside, talking about the past weekend as well as their upcoming trip to Michigan. Molly appreciated the fact that everyone interacted as friends and that no one talked about her budding relationship with Tom. Jenny suggested they order a pizza. Eddie and Jenny's parents were out with Brad and Kathy's parents so the kids were on their own. "Are we going to fish the club tournament?" Molly said. "I would like to fish in it. It will be the first club tournament Jack, Tom, Kim, and Sally will be able to fish. They get down here two weeks before the tournament," Jenny said. "After that, we have a money tournament out of Miami. I know we'll want to fish that one too." Brad chuckled and said, "I know our sponsors will want us to fish it." "I wonder how the pilot is coming. We haven't heard from Randy and Fran lately," Kathy said. "I know. Maybe Sally has talked to them, but I doubt it. If she did, I know Sally would call us," Eddie said. "I'll ask Sally the next time I call her," Jenny said. "Sally still wants to do our own production. I agree with her." Brad laughed as he put his arm around Jenny. He gave her breast a squeeze and said, "We should do porn. We'd make a fortune." "We can't until we're eighteen," Jenny replied in a deadpan voice. "I was kidding," Brad said. Giggling, Jenny said, "Yeah, I know you were." The pizza arrived and the teens ate on the patio. While they ate, they changed the subject to school. All of them felt they would be ready for their final exams. Eddie and Kathy took Molly home at ten o'clock. Eddie told Molly he would pick her up for school the next morning. After sharing quick kisses with Kathy and Eddie, Molly went into the house. Molly came into the living room and found her mom and Joel sitting on the couch. She sat across from them and smiled. "Making wedding plans?" Molly said. "Yes we are, Honey. I can't convince your mom to have a big wedding," Joel said. "We have decided to have the wedding at the end of July or the first of August. There is too much to do to have the wedding in June." Laura chuckled. "We have to plan it around your fishing schedule." Molly giggled. "Are you going to have it at Tom's house?" Laura smiled because of the way Molly referred to the house. "Yes, I think we'll have it at the house. Marge and Anne have all but insisted we do." "So, where are we going to live after you two get hitched?" Molly asked. "I want to rent this house and have you two move in with me, but your mom doesn't think my condo is big enough," Joel said. "Now I'm thinking of buying something larger. Your mom and I are going to start looking. Molly, would it bother you if we moved in together before we were married?" "No, why would it bother me? I don't understand why you two haven't moved in together yet. It seems silly for you two to have separate houses. Mom comes home in time to get ready for work as it is." Molly gave her mom and Joel a big grin and then she giggled. "I know what you guys are doing you know." Laura and Joel laughed. "Oh you do huh? And what is it that you think we're doing?" Laura said. "You know, the normal things old couples do. Playing board games, watching television, knitting…" Molly began laughing so hard she couldn't finish. Laura threw a pillow at her daughter. All of them laughed. Laura told Molly she was sassy and that she and Joel weren't that old. Molly got up. She gave her mom a hug and kiss. Turning to Joel, Molly gave him a hug and a kiss on the cheek. "I'm going to bed. I have school in the morning. Goodnight, Mom. Goodnight, Dad," Molly said. Joel sat in shock as Molly headed down the hallway to her room. Laura grinned and wrapped her arms around him. "Now I'll move in with you. I know that Molly accepts us as a couple. I guess I was worried about nothing," Laura said. Joel hugged Laura. Her words were music to his ears. Joel hated it when Laura insisted she return home after a night of lovemaking. He wanted to cuddle with her and wake up with Laura in his bed. "I'll move in here for now. We can sell my condo and look for another house," Joel said. "We could live here you know," Laura said. "Yes, I know, but I would rather start our lives together in a place of our own," Joel said. "Besides, we can find something closer to your job and my office." Laura leaned closer to Joel. She took his face between her hands and kissed him. Joel responded, kissing her back and pressing his tongue against her lips. Laura accepted Joel's tongue, sucking it gently. He moved one hand to her breast as they continued to kiss each other tenderly. "When will you move in?" Laura said after removing her mouth from Joel's mouth. "Anytime you want me to, Darling," Joel replied. "Tonight?" "If you want me to move in tonight, I will. I have to go get a few things from my condo," Joel said. "We can get everything else in a day or two. We'll have to rent a storage unit for my furniture." "Why don't we just leave your things in the condo? We can find a house and move when we return from Michigan," Laura said. She let out a soft moan as Joel massaged her breast. Laura put one hand between Joel's legs. She began to rub his penis through the material of his slacks. Kissing Joel again, Laura lowered the zipper of his pants. She reached inside so she could fondle his naked flesh. "Couldn't you leave early enough in the morning to change at home? We can get your clothing tomorrow after work," Laura said as she worked his penis out of his fly. "Yes, we could do that if you want to," Joel said. He began unbuttoning Laura's blouse. Joel and Laura went to her bedroom. They slowly removed each other's clothes, climbed into bed and made love. The next morning, Molly walked into the kitchen wearing her panties and bra. When she saw Joel sitting at the table with her mom, Molly blushed. "Good morning, Mom, Dad," Molly said. "You sure came over early this morning, Joel." Laura and Joel chuckled. "Joel didn't leave last night, Honey. He is moving in with us," Laura said. "Cool! Does that mean I have to wear clothes in the morning? I'm used to running around in my undies while I get ready for school," Molly said. "That's up to you, Molly," Laura said. Smiling, Molly fixed herself a glass of orange juice, toast, and a cup of coffee. She sat at the table with her mom and Joel. "Joel and I are going to look for a new house. We want to move closer to his office and my job," Laura said. Chewing her toast, Molly nodded. "Would you like to help find the house?" Joel said. "Sure, if you want me to," Molly replied between bites. "What would you like in our new house?" Laura asked. Molly giggled and said, "Tom." Joel and Laura chuckled. "That's not what I meant," Laura said. "I know. I'm just kidding around. What do I want in a house? Happiness. I want you to be happy, Mom. If I have a bedroom I'll be fine," Molly said. Molly listened to Joel, and her mom, explain their plans. She finished her breakfast, excusing herself so she could finish dressing for school. "I guess she isn't upset about the idea, is she?" Joel said to Laura. "No, apparently not. Molly is a good girl, Joel," Laura said. "I know she is. I can't tell you how it makes me feel when she calls me dad," Joel said. He stood up and went to Laura. "For the first time, I'm sure everything is going to work out. I love you, Laura. I want to be with you and make you my wife." Laura reached up and stroked Joel's cheek. "What time do you have to be in the office this morning?" "I don't have any appointments, but I do have work to do. I'm in the process of finalizing the purchase of the property for Don and Marc. We should close later this week," Joel said. "Why, is there something you need help with?" Chuckling, Laura said, "Yes, I have a bad case of horniness." "I know for a fact I have time to cure that for you, Sweetheart," Joel said with a chuckle. Molly came back into the kitchen. She told her mom and Joel goodbye and went outside to wait for her friends. When Eddie pulled up, Molly jumped into the van. Eddie pulled away and drove toward their school. Kathy and Jenny talked with Molly while Brad and Eddie talked in the front seat. * * * * The next three weeks seemed to fly by for the teens. In Michigan, Jack, Tom, Kim and Sally worked hard to make sure they would be able to go into the next grade in the fall. They went to Dianne's house on Saturdays to make up for lost days. The four teens got up early every morning so they could swim and workout. Jack stressed the fact that they needed to be stronger if they planned to fight large fish. At night, Kim and Tom shared a bed, but their sexual activity dropped. They had sex a few times when they were both in the mood. Even with the lack of sex, they cuddled as they had been doing. Sally contacted Randy and Fran. She learned that ESPN accepted the pilot, but as a special, not as a series. When she called Jenny to tell her, the girls agreed that it would be better that way. Now they could pursue the idea of producing their own show. Jack and Sally's relationship grew. He became more dominant, but never humiliated Sally or treated her poorly. Sally loved the fact that Jack was finally seeing things her way. At night, Sally made love to Jack anyway he told her to. He spanked her several times, but only after Sally taunted him by doing things she knew Jack wouldn't like. One evening, a week before their friends would be there, Don surprised the two families. He and Marc came home and told the others they had something to show them. Don and Marc led the group outside to show them the new vehicle they'd purchased. Sitting in the drive way was what looked like a small motor home. When Don opened the door and let the others in, they found it was in fact a limousine. "What possessed you to buy this thing?" Marge asked Don. "Well, we figured that we'd need a vehicle that we could all fit into. This thing seats twenty plus the driver and a front seat passenger. Marc and I found it at an auction. It's only a year old and has very low mileage," Don said. "We bought it for a song," Marc added. The two families looked around the inside of the unique vehicle. The leather couch-like seats looked comfortable. There were dark windows along both sides so the passengers could see out. The limo's plush carpeting and subtle lighting made it look very elegant. Marge sat on one of the seats. She stroked the fine leather and smiled at her husband. "What are you going to do with this thing after we move to Florida?" Marge said. "We plan to let the kids use it for their charter business. Unique Adventures bought it," Marc said. "You spent their money without asking them?" Anne said. "Well, yeah, I guess we did. Is that okay with you, kids?" Marc said. "Heck yeah! We'll be able to use this for our clients," Jack said. "Thanks, Dad. Thanks, Uncle Marc." Marge and Anne shook their heads as the teens took turns thanking Don and Marc. Jack sat in the driver's seat, looking at the dashboard. He leaned back in the high-back leather seat and smiled. "How are we going to get this to Florida?" Tom said. "We're thinking you kids can drive it down after your fishing trip. Don and I will have your trucks and the boat shipped down. We talked with the other parents and they agreed," Marc said. "We can drive straight through with this. The seats are big enough to sleep on," Kim said. Don opened a small door to show everyone the built in refrigerator. He lifted a cover to show them the bar. "You'll only have to stop for gas," Marc said. Don showed the families a few of the other features of the vehicle. He pushed a button on the wall that caused a privacy panel to close between the cab and the back. He also showed them the video camera that pointed rearward to aid in backing up. "Can we take if for a spin?" Jack asked. Don tossed his son the keys and said, "Go for it. Just take it easy until you get used to the size." Jack got behind the wheel. Tom took the passenger seat next to his cousin. The rest of the group sat down in back. Jack pulled out of the driveway and onto the road. He drove through the neighborhood until he felt comfortable. When he turned onto the main road, Jack relaxed. "This thing drives nice," Jack said. "Where should we go?" "Why don't you head to the rib joint? We can have dinner there," Marge said. "Anne and I have been cleaning all day to get ready for our friends." "Where is everyone going to sleep?" Kim said. "It's only a problem Wednesday night. Once you kids are gone, we'll have enough room for everyone. We were thinking that you kids could sack out in the family room for one night," Anne said. "No problem, Mom. I don't mind sleeping on the floor for the night. We plan to leave early on Thursday morning," Sally said. Jack drove to the restaurant. The group went in and waited until the servers put a few tables together for them. While they ate, Don and Marc brought everyone up to date on the new Florida property. "Joel closed on the property and arranged for a contractor to remove the old foundation. Once that is completed, we'll hire an architect to design the house. If you still want to, you kids can help," Don said. "You should talk to Mr. Waters. I'll bet he knows a few good architects," Tom said. "That's a great idea," Marge said. "We can talk to him when they get up here." "We are thinking that we should have a party on Wednesday evening. You kids could invite your friends so they can meet Jenny, Kathy, Molly, Eddie, and Brad. We'll invite their parents," Anne said. Jack, Tom, and their sisters traded glances. "Um, yeah, we could do that. I don't know if they'll come, though," Sally said. "Why wouldn't they?" Marge asked. "I don't know. They seem all involved in the golf course and things. They hardly talk to us anymore," Sally replied. "If they don't come, it's up to them. I still think you should invite them," Anne said. "I agree. You should also invite them to Florida and offer to take them out on the yacht," Marge said. "We'll invite them," Kim said. The two families finished their meals. On the way back to the house, Tom drove the new limousine. He told Jack it was easy to drive. Once they were back at the house, the parents went in while Kim, Tom, Jack, and Sally stayed in the new vehicle to have a closer look. In Florida, Eddie, Brad, Jenny, Kathy, and Molly studied for their final exams. Molly and Tom talked on the telephone every night. During a few of their calls, they engaged in phone sex. Kim didn't participate again even though Molly wanted her to. Eddie, Kathy, and Molly went out together a few times. They ended up having sex at Molly's house while her mom and Joel were away. The sex was fun, but Molly craved the feeling she had when she and Tom were together. Even though they made love a few times, Molly's love for Tom prevented her from letting go with Eddie and Kathy as she had in the past. The girls went shopping with their moms. They wanted to get new jeans and sweaters to wear while they were up north. Kim and Sally told them that while May was normally warm, it would be cooler on the water. While they shopped for their clothing, Jenny and Kathy bought jeans and sweatshirts for their brothers. Harry gathered everyone at his house the day before they would leave for Michigan. He wanted to make sure everyone had everything they would need for the trip. Jenny, Kathy, and Molly assured their parents they were ready to go. Eddie and Brad said they would be ready in time to leave for the airport. Because of the size of the group, they decided to fly on a commercial airline. "Okay, we have to be ready to leave at six in the morning. I want you kids to get some rest tonight," Ellen said. "We will, Mom," Jenny said. "How are we getting to the airport?" "We'll take the van and Mr. Water's car. We should meet here at five thirty to pack the car and van," Harry said. "I've never been on an airplane before. Is it scary?" Molly said. "No, it isn't scary, Hun. You'll be fine," Joel said. "Okay, if you say so," Molly replied. It was close to nine when everyone headed for their houses. Joel and Laura tried to assure Molly the flight would be okay as they drove home. Molly was anxious, but she wanted to see Tom so bad she would endure almost anything. "Have you found a new house yet?" Molly asked. "No, not yet. We've looked at a few, but nothing we liked," Laura said. "Joel and I will spend more time once we get back from our trip." Joel had moved his things into Laura and Molly's house the day after he and Laura made the decision to live together. Molly was happy about the arrangement because it made her mom happy. When she got home, Molly called Tom. They talked for a half hour, telling one another how much they were looking forward to seeing each other again. "I have to take care of a few things, Sweetie. I'll see you tomorrow." Molly giggled. "I can't wait." "Neither can I," Tom said. "I'll see you at the airport tomorrow morning. Molly, I love you." "I love you too! See you tomorrow," Molly said. Molly and Tom spent another ten minutes saying goodbye. Once they hung up, Molly finished packing her small suitcase. She went out to the living room to tell her mom and Joel goodnight. * * * * It was still dark when Laura, Joel, and Molly pulled into the driveway at Jenny's house. They removed their luggage from the trunk of the car and placed it near the van. Laura knocked on the door, waiting for an answer. Ellen opened the front door and let them in. After a quick round of greetings, Ellen invited Laura and Joel into the kitchen. She offered them coffee and juice. Molly excused herself and went to Jenny's bedroom. "Hi," Molly said as she walked through the open door of Jenny's room. Jenny turned around and smiled at Molly. "Hi, Molly. Are you ready to go?" Jenny said. Jenny had just finished her shower. She stood with a towel wrapped around her waist and another towel around her hair. "Yeah, I'm as ready as I'm going to be. I'm still nervous about flying," Molly said. She walked to Jenny's bed and sat down. "I know, I'm nervous too. It will be okay though," Jenny said. "Hey there," Eddie said from the doorway. "How are you this morning?" Molly looked at Eddie, giggling when she saw him in his boxers. "I'm good, how about you?" Molly replied. "Running late as usual. I have to get dressed," Eddie said and then he left. Molly watched Eddie as he walked away. From where she sat, Molly could see into Eddie's room. She kept glancing at Eddie as he put on his jeans and tee shirt. Kathy and Brad came into Jenny's room. They greeted Jenny and Molly and then Kathy went to Eddie's room. Brad gave Jenny a kiss. He sat next to Molly, watching Jenny finish dressing. In the kitchen, the adults sat at the table drinking coffee and talking about the trip. Laura told everyone it would be her first time in an airplane. Sarah chuckled and said, "Are you going to join the mile high club?" "I don't know. What's that?" Laura said. "You join by having sex in an airplane when it's over a mile high," Joel said. Laura blushed and chuckled. The rest of the group laughed. Turning to Joel, Laura said, "Are you a member?" Joel shook his head. "No, but I'd like to be a member." "I wouldn't hold your breath. I'm not going to screw you in an airplane full of people," Laura said. "It's easy. You just have to go into the bathroom. The bathrooms are tiny, but if you are inventive, you can pull it off," Ellen said. "Are you speaking from experience, Ellen?" Sarah said. Grinning, Ellen nodded. The parents heard their children coming. They stopped talking about their escapades and waited for the teens to enter the kitchen. Jenny offered everyone cereal and juice. At six, the group headed for the airport. When they arrived, they checked their luggage and made their way to the gate. Molly clutched one of Eddie's arms while Kathy hung onto the other arm. Brad and Jenny stood close and the five of them chattered about the flight. Harry led the teens to the window so they could look out and see the planes parked on the tarmac. "You kids don't have anything to worry about. Flying is the safest method of transportation," Harry said in an assuring tone. "I think we'll be okay once we're in the air, Dad," Eddie said. He chuckled and added, "I remember when driving our first boat was scary." An attendant announced that it was time to board the plane. Molly and Kathy increased their grip on Eddie's arms. He pulled away and put his arms around the two girls. On the airplane, the teens found their assigned seats. Molly sat between Eddie and Kathy. Jenny and Brad sat in the same row across the aisle. Molly watched as the other passengers placed their thing in the overhead compartments. She looked out the window at the wing of the plane. A few minutes later, the plane backed away from the terminal. Jenny gripped Brad's hand while Kathy held Molly's hand and Molly hugged Eddie's arm. An attendant went over the safety procedures, telling the passengers how to use the oxygen masks and that the seat cushions served as floatation devices. Molly, Kathy, and Jenny gasped as the plane rumbled down the runway and lifted off the pavement. All three of the girls held their breath as the Airbus A320 gained altitude. Once the plane reached its cruising altitude, and leveled off, the teens relaxed. They all glanced at each other, making sure they weren't the only one that felt uneasy during the take-off. The captain made his announcement, telling the passengers that the flight would take three hours. He welcomed everyone and wished them a comfortable trip. When the flight attendants began offering beverages and food, the teens asked for sodas. They began talking about the new experience. Molly and Eddie stared out the window, looking past Kathy. Eddie put his hand on Molly's side, gently rubbing her. She looked back at him and smiled. Two rows behind Molly, Sarah and Jack Waters sat in the window and center seat. Ellen sat next to Jack. She leaned across him to talk to Sarah. "So, are you two going to try to join the mile high club?" Ellen said and then she chuckled. Turning from the window, Sarah grinned at Ellen. "Not this trip, but I will someday." The two women winked at each other. Jack Waters shook his head and said, "You two are going to get me in trouble, aren't you?" Sarah put her hand between her husband's legs. She rubbed him for a moment and then pulled away. "No, Honey, we're not going to get anyone in trouble." Sarah leaned closer to Jack. "I can wait until tonight to suck your big cock. I'm going to make you forget your name. You know how much I love the feeling of your cock in my mouth and your come running down my throat." "Okay, that's enough of that. I'm going to drag you to the bathroom and have my way with you if you keep that up," Jack said. Ellen glanced around. She chuckled and then ran her hand over Jack's crotch. "Hmmm, is this what you're talking about being up?" Laughing, Jack Waters shook his head. He told his wife and Ellen to stop teasing him. Ellen grinned, leaned closer to Sarah, and said, "I could always get a blanket for you two. You could cover your head and blow Jack right here." Ellen and Sarah continued to tease Jack. He squirmed in his seat while the two women talked about the different things they wanted to do to him. Finally, Jack stood up and moved into the aisle. He reached for Sarah's hand and told her to get up. She giggled and shook her head. Jack laughed and walked back to the bathrooms. "You're so bad!" Sarah said to Ellen. "Me? What about you?" Ellen replied. "Oh I know I'm bad." Sarah chuckled. "In a good way if you know what I mean." Laura noticed that Sarah and Ellen were talking and that Jack had left. She got up and went over to the two women. Ellen moved into the center seat and Laura sat down. "What are you two up to?" Laura said. "We were teasing my husband. He left because he couldn't take it," Sarah said. "How are things since Joel moved in?" Ellen asked Laura. "I don't think things could be better. Joel is a real sweetie and I love waking up next to him," Laura said. "I'll bet you don't mind going to bed with him either," Sarah said. "Are you kidding, it's wonderful. We act more like teenagers than adults," Laura said. "How is Molly taking it?" Ellen said. "That's the best part of all! Molly hasn't said anything negative about Joel living in the house, except she wonders why we waited. She's been calling Joel dad and that makes him happy," Laura said. "How do you feel about Tom and Molly?" Sarah said. "I don't know what to think. Tom is about all I hear Molly talking about lately. After she talks to him on the phone, I can look forward to 'Tom said this and Tom said that,' for the next hour." Laura chuckled. "That's the way it was with Kathy and Eddie too." "Well, I never thought that relationship would last too long. As much as they tried, Kathy and Eddie could never make Molly, or anyone else, an equal," Ellen said. "I'm happy they are still close." Sarah nodded in agreement. "Kathy told me that she and Eddie wanted Molly to be happy. I think that if she and Tom do get together seriously, Molly will be very happy." "You don't think it will cause any trouble with your job, do you, Laura?" Ellen said. "No, I don't think so. Molly and I talked about it and she seems to accept it's what I want to do. I also talked to Anne and Marge. They both feel it's up to me, not the kids," Laura said. Jack came back. He noticed that Laura was sitting with Sarah and Ellen so he sat down next to Joel. They began talking about the trip, and about how things were going with Laura. Joel told Jack Waters that he was glad to be living with Laura and that he adored Molly. The plane landed in Detroit on time. The group waited for most of the passengers to get out of the way before they deplaned. When they came out of the jetway, they saw their friends waiting for them. The parents hugged and shook hands. The teens came together and did the same. Molly and Tom stood staring at each other. Kim put her hand on Tom's back and gave him a shove. "Go greet your girlfriend!" Kim said. Tom moved toward Molly. He wrapped her in a hug and then they kissed. Molly moaned into Tom's mouth as his tongue snaked into her mouth. After a moment, they separated. Looking into one another's eyes, Tom and Molly blushed. "I've missed you," Tom whispered in Molly's ear. "I love you," Molly whispered back. Molly kept her arm around Tom. She guided him over to Kim and pulled her into a three-way hug. When Kim kissed Molly's cheek, and told her that she was happy for her and Tom, Molly began to weep. "Stop that or you're going to make me cry," Kim said. Molly giggled and nodded. Tom, Molly, and Kim released their grips on each other and moved over to the rest of the teens. Don told everyone to follow him to the luggage pickup. The group from Florida picked their bags off the moving belt. Once they retrieved all their luggage, Don led the crowd outside so they could get into the new vehicle. "Here we are," Don said as they walked up to the new limousine. He opened the rear hatch so the group could stow their bags. "When did you get this thing?" Harry asked. "Marc and I picked it up a few days ago. We decided it would come in handy for the charter business," Don said. Don opened the door. One by one, the group climbed in. The adults sat forward with the men closest to the cab. The women sat behind them and began taking the moment they sat down. The teens moved toward the rear of the vehicle. Tom sat down and Molly plopped on his lap. "God, can't you two wait?" Kathy said with a giggle. "Could you if you were me?" Molly replied and then she giggled too. "Are you kidding? I would have knocked him down and raped him in the airport," Kathy said. Kim sat across from Tom and Molly. She watched them interacting and smiled. While she still had feelings for Tom, she was happy for him. His budding relationship with Molly would allow her to seek a new boyfriend, or boyfriends, without guilt. The hardest part of the transformation for Kim was the fear of hurting her cousin. Giggling to herself, Kim rationalized that she could still have sex with Tom until she found someone to take his place. Kim, Sally, Jenny, Kathy, and Molly began talking about the things they'd done since they saw each other last. The conversation started with school, but moved on as soon as everyone knew that they were going into the next grade in the fall. Eddie asked Jack and Tom about the boat. Brad wanted to know what they could expect when they went fishing for salmon. Jack and Tom told them a little, but said it would be easier to wait until they got home. "We're going to drive this thing back to Florida, if that's okay with you guys," Jack said. "Our dads are shipping the boat and our trucks." "That's cool. Don't forget we have a club meeting next Thursday. We also have a club tournament two weeks after that," Jenny said and then she giggled. "Oh, and we have a money tournament coming up too." "It sounds like we'll be busy. We have to take delivery of Tomiko when we get down to Florida. Jeri says she has a couple of charter brokers for us to interview," Kim said. "I think we should just let Jeri pick the broker. After all, she's the one that has to work with the broker," Sally said. "We can talk about it later," Jack said to Sally. She nodded. "What time are we planning to leave tomorrow?" Brad said. "Early if we can. I'd like to be on the road by six-thirty or seven," Jack said. "We're having, I mean our parents are having a party tonight. You guys will get to meet some of our friends," Sally said. "I hope they don't stay too late. I need my beauty sleep," Kim said with a giggle. "Which friends are coming? The ones you've told us about?" Kathy said. Kim nodded. "Yeah, the ones we've told you about." Molly turned to Tom. She moved her mouth to his ear and whispered, "Is your old girlfriend going to be there?" Tom nodded. "Probably." "If she comes near you, I'll scratch her eyes out," Molly said. "I think I would be more worried about her hitting on you than me," Tom said. "Don't forget, she broke up with me so she could be with her girlfriend." "Oh, well I'm still going to keep an eye on her," Molly said and then she kissed Tom's ear. Don pulled into the driveway at the house. He shut off the vehicle and said, "Here we are folks." Don opened the door so everyone could get out. As the group from Florida left the limo, they gazed at the house and yard. Ellen put her hand on Anne's arm and said, "Your house is beautiful." "Thanks, we like it. Marc and I used to have a house, but we decided that all of us could live here," Anne said. "From the looks of it, there's plenty of room," Sarah said. "Let's go in so we can show you around. We'll grab the luggage in a few minutes," Don said. Don led the group into the house. Kim, Jack, Sally, and Tom waited in the family room while their parents gave the group a tour of the house. Kim stood next to Tom, grinning at him. "What?" Tom said. "I think you and Molly are cute," Kim said. Tom chuckled and said, "I don't know about me, but I think Molly is cute too." "That's not what I meant. I was talking about how you two can't keep your hands to yourselves," Kim said. She stretched up and kissed Tom's cheek. "You're not mad at me, are you?" "No, I'm not mad at you, Kim. I was confused, but after we talked about it, I understand. I hope you can find someone to make you happy," Tom said. "Sweetie, you make me happy-very happy." The group came downstairs and into the family room. Don opened the doors to the pool area so everyone could see it. Everyone walked through the doors. The adults gathered in one group while the teens gathered in another. "This is great! You guys can swim year-round," Jenny said. "It's nice, but we're all anxious to move to Florida. We'll be able to swim and fish," Jack said. "Let's go see your boat," Eddie said to Jack. The teens went outside. Jack took a stepladder from the garage so they could get into the boat. Eddie and Brad walked around the boat before climbing aboard. Kim, Sally, Jenny, Kathy, and Molly stayed on the driveway while the boys checked out the boat. "This is nice," Brad said. "What do we have to do before we leave?" "We're ready to go. Tom and I have taken care of everything so we can leave early tomorrow morning," Jack said. "I'm looking forward to learning how these downriggers work. I've read about fishing with them, but I've never had the chance," Eddie said. "I think we can use them on the Lady Guinevere when we get to Florida. I've read a few articles on controlled depth fishing in saltwater," Tom said. Jack took out one of the rods. He showed it to Brad and Eddie. Tom pulled out a tackle box to show them the lures they would use. The girls climbed aboard when they realized it was going to take the boys longer than they thought it would. Kim and Sally showed the other three girls the cutty cabin and then the girls stood in the cockpit with the guys. Jenny looked at the rod that Brad held. The teens talked about how they would rig for salmon. "It's going to be tight with all of us on this boat, isn't it?" Kathy said. "She's rated for twelve passengers. We have enough PFDs on board for all of us. It may be crowded, but I think we can manage. Salmon fishing is different from deep-sea fishing. You don't have to clear all the lines when you have a fish on," Jack said. "I thought it would be colder than it is," Molly said. "The weather is nice." "It'll be cooler on the lake. The water temperature is in the fifties at this time of year," Tom said. He put his arm around Molly, pulling her to his side. "I'll keep you warm." Molly giggled and wiggled against Tom. Jack put the rod and tackle away. The teens climbed down from the boat and stood next to it. Brad and Eddie walked up to Jack's truck to look at it. Tom released Molly so he could join his friends. "This is Jack's truck. My Expedition is over there," Tom said as he pointed at his truck. "Nice trucks," Brad said. "Yeah, we like them," Tom said. "I like the boat. It will be great for fishing in the ICW and inshore. Lady Guinevere is great for offshore, but she's too big for some of the other fishing I'd like to try," Eddie said. Kim walked over to her brother. She waited for a pause in the conversation and then said, "Jack, let's see if we can take the bus and show everyone around. The party isn't for a few hours." "It's a limo, not a bus. I'll go ask Dad if we can go," Jack said. "It looks like a bus to me, even if it isn't," Kim said. Jack went into the house. When he asked his dad if they could go for a ride, Don gave Jack the keys to the new limo. "Don't be too late, Jack. You know we have guests coming over tonight," Don said. "No problem, Dad. We'll be back in a few hours. I want to take them to Metro and then by the golf course. I also want to show them around the area," Jack replied. Jack went back outside. He told everyone to get in the new vehicle so he could leave. Once everyone settled in, Jack started the limo and pulled away from the house. As the teens selected their seats, Molly insisted that Kim sit with her and Tom. Sally sat up in the cab with Jack, twisting around so she could talk to the group in back. Brad and Jenny sat on one of the seats with Eddie and Kathy close to them. "We're going to take you guys to Metro Beach first. It's a great place in the summer," Jack said. He turned out of the driveway and onto the street. Jack drove to the park. He paid the fee and drove in. Parking near the marina, Jack turned off the limo. "We're here," Jack said. The teens climbed out of the vehicle. Pairing up, they walked toward the docks. Kim started to lag behind, but Molly grabbed her hand. Holding Tom and Kim's hands, Molly swung her arms. Jack and Tom told their friends about the marina. Kim and Sally told them about the times they'd tied up there. "Let's walk out to the point," Sally said. "I want to show everyone the lake." The group walked out to the point. They found a picnic table and sat down. Jack mentioned that the lake's average depth was twelve feet. He also told them that about the shipping channel. After sitting for a few minutes, the teens headed back. "How's the fishing on the lake?" Brad said. "It can be good at times. We catch perch, walleye, and smallmouth bass. There's a lot of musky in the lake, but we've never fished for them," Tom said. "This place is a zoo during the summer. It is one of the popular places for the pleasure boaters to gather. On the weekends, it's hard to find a slip," Jack said. Back in the limo, Jack drove down Jefferson. He drove along Lake Shore Drive, showing the group from Florida the mansions. After the brief tour, Jack headed home. "That was fun," Kathy said. "I couldn't believe the size of some of those mansions on the lake." "Yeah, they're big. The Pointes is where a lot of the industrialists settled when Detroit was growing. At one time, most of the country's cars were built here," Tom said. Jack pulled into the driveway. After shutting off the engine, he sat staring out the windshield. Turning to Sally, Jack said, "You know, this is going to be one of the last times we pull into this driveway." "So what? We're moving on and that's a good thing. At least that's how I feel," Sally said. "Don't forget, our parents are keeping this house for now. We'll be back someday." The teens left the limo. They went into the house, finding their parents sitting in the pool area. They all said hello and then the kids from Florida began telling their parents about what they'd seen. "You kids should get ready for dinner. Our guests will be here soon," Marc told the group. The teens went upstairs to the bedrooms. Kim pulled Tom and Molly into the room she shared with her cousin. Giggling, Kim said, "I'm going to take a shower. I'll be back in about a half hour." She looked at Tom and winked. As soon as Kim walked into the bathroom and closed the door, Tom took Molly in his arms. They began kissing and then Tom pulled Molly's top over her head. Tom and Molly continued to kiss and touch as they removed one another's clothing. Naked, they embraced. "This feels so right," Molly cooed in Tom's ear. Tom moved his hands to Molly's butt. Pulling her to him, Tom said, "It feels better than right, Molly. I love you." Smiling, Molly said, "I love you too, Tom. I love to be in your arms." Molly kissed Tom. She pulled her hips away from his, reached down, and began stroking his rigid penis. Stepping back, Molly leaned over and kissed Tom's glans. She slipped his member into her mouth and began bobbing her head. Tom let out a moan as he put his hands on her head. Molly kept sucking him for a moment. She stood up, grinned, and said, "Follow me." Taking Tom's hand, Molly pulled him toward the bathroom. She giggled as she opened the door. Kim heard the door open and stuck her head out the shower door. Molly winked at Kim. She got into the shower, pulling Tom in with her. The three of them began laughing. "What are you doing?" Kim said to Molly. "We came to wash your back," Molly replied between giggles. "I thought you two wanted to be alone. That's why I told you I would be in here for a half hour," Kim said. She giggled when Molly took the soap and began rubbing it on her chest. "Tom and I will have time for that later. Besides, a half hour isn't long enough." Kim laughed. Tom shook his head and joined in the fun. The three of them took turns washing each other and playing. They rinsed, got out, and dried each other with fluffy towels. Kim, Tom, and Molly dressed. They continued to laugh and joke around. When they finished dressing, they went downstairs. Marge asked them to give her a hand setting the tables in the pool area. Jack, Sally, Jenny, and Eddie came downstairs. They pitched in, helping get things ready for the party. An hour later, the guests arrived. Anne met them at the door, letting them in.
