Dorsai - Eight is enough

A moment later, Jeremy felt a single spot of wetness on his chest; without Dawns saying even a single word, he knew that it was a tear, and that she was feeling both happy and sad at the same time. And he knew what she was feeling because he was experiencing the same things.

Several more moments passed before Dawn pulled herself together and announced "If we're going to feed those two, and ourselves, we'd better get going."

Taking what his sister had said at face value, Jeremy eased himself away from her again before getting out of bed and starting to get dressed with Dawn soon following him. Without saying anything, Jeremy took advantage of an opportunity to give her a kiss on the lips – as gentle and loving as he could make it. Dawn happily returned it in equal measure, giving him a smile when he pulled back from her. From there, it wasn't long before he and Dawn were holding hands as they made their way to the kitchen.

Breakfast proved to be an almost polar opposite from how the previous meal had gone. Both of the twins were about as chipper as they could be, with much the same appetites as they usually had. When Dawn quietly asked, Brittany let her know that the only consequence she felt from the previous evening was a mild soreness from being stretched the way she had – and that even that was relatively minor; otherwise, she had neither problems, nor regrets. Watching the youngster, and listening to her, Dawn soon decided that she was as fine as she'd claimed. As for Beth, she wasn't exhibiting any signs of nervousness or fear or anything other than eager anticipation. Dawn had known that Brit would pass along every detail of what had happened to her twin; it was pretty clear that she'd managed to express her pleasure at how things had gone well enough to calm (if not eliminate) any qualms Bethany might have.

As it had been the night before, the meal was light enough to keep Jeremy or Beth from feeling over-full. And after they'd finished, Brit quickly declared her willingness to return the favor her sister had done by cleaning things up by herself. The only notable difference from the last meal was that it was Bethany that said she wanted to talk to Dawn. The older girl easily agreed, and the two of them drifted into the living room while Jeremy made his way back to his bedroom where he got the "virgin deflowering kit", as Dawn had referred to it, out and positioned on his bed.

Once settled into his chair, Jeremy got himself used to the idea that he might be in for a wait again – only to hear a soft knock on his door just a few minutes later. When he opened the door, the only one on the other side was Bethany, wearing a happy smile and look of anticipation. Though she was wearing a blouse and skirt, Jeremy could see that she was braless, and decided that there was a distinct possibility that she was sans panties, too. He invited her in, and then closed the door behind her; when he turned around, she quickly plastered herself against his front before pulling his head down for a kiss. When he was finally able to pull his head back and look at her, Beth answered his unasked question by telling him "Brit told me last night how you were with her; that you were so gentle and patient and everything. And she told me how careful you were about letting her decide what to do, and when, and how. It made me feel a lot better about you fucking me the first time; I know that you aren't going to do anything to hurt me, or that I don't like. I even told Dawn that I was okay, and that she didn't have to be here unless she wanted to, and she just said that this was my time, and that I should have it as private as I wanted. So she isn't going to be with us, like she was with you and Brit. Is that okay?"

Jeremy softly kissed her on the lips before answering "Of course it is, Beth, if that's what you want. I'm really not going to do anything that I know will hurt you – but if something happens that hurts you anyway, I want you to tell me, so I can stop, okay? I don't want to do anything that would make you unhappy."

Hearing that only seemed to make beth more certain, and Jeremy wasn't particularly surprised when she asked "Can… can we get naked, and start now?"

Smiling, Jeremy answered "Of course we can."

Having said that, Jeremy simply stood there until Beth realized that it was literally up to her to make the first move – and symbolically putting her in charge of things.

Giving him a pleased smile, she took his hand in hers and led the way over to the bed. When they were standing next to it, she released Jeremy's hand so that she could start taking her clothes off. Though she wasn't trying to do anything like a strip-tease, Jeremy saw that she was watching him; figuring that she wanted to be doing something special, he opted to watch as she undressed, instead getting his own clothes off.

As he'd expected, she was both bra-and pantie-less; it took less than a minute for her to be standing naked in front of him. With her wearing nothing more than a look of anticipation and a pair of erect nipples, Jeremy calmly went about mirroring what she'd done: keeping his eyes on her as he shed himself of his shirt, pants, and undershorts. Once both of them were nude, she led the way onto his bed – giving him a truly delightful view of how her cute little ass clenched as she moved across it.

She guided him to lay on his side before stretching herself out in front of him. Taking his hand in hers, she looked up at him and calmly let him know "I know that with me and Brit being twins, there's a lot that's the same about us. But I know that there's some that's different, too. I don't expect what happens with me to be the same as it did with Brit, and I don't want it to. She told me last night how good and happy you made her feel, and I know you'll try to make me feel like that, too. She told me some of the things that you did with her, and I know you'll want to do them with me, too; I just want to ask you to try not to do them the same way with me that you did her. I know it's easy to forget sometimes, but me and Brit, we aren't two copies of the same person: she's her, and I'm me, no matter how much alike we are."

Hearing that, Jeremy realized how often he (and the rest of the family, he figured) tended to deal with the twins as though they were two copies of the same person – and silently vowed not to do it again, if he could possibly help it. With Beth laying naked in front of him, though, he knew that he needed to respond to what she'd said, first. Lifting her hand where it held his, he softly kissed it before telling her "I wasn't going to do that with you, anyway, Beth – not for this. You just made me realize that all of us do treat the two of you like the same person a lot of the time, and I'm promising you right now that I'm going to do my very best to stop doing that. And I want to apologize if my doing it before now has ever hurt you; I can only hope that you know that I never meant to do anything like that on purpose. While you're here with me, I'm going to make sure that I remember that I'm with the one person called Bethany, not half of Bethany-and-Brittany, okay?"

Looking into her face, Jeremy could see that he'd made her happy with what he'd said, and silently chewed himself out for not really seeing before that she and her twin were really two different people; no matter how much they were alike, they'd also demonstrated that they were each unique, too.

Lowering his head, Jeremy softly kissed her forehead – then both of her eyelids, her cheeks, the corners of her mouth, and finally, her lips. After he'd pulled his head back again, he saw that she was looking up at him with complete trust and confidence. When she let go of his hand, he placed it on her belly (surprising her a little that it didn't end up on her breast, he could see) before telling her "I love you, Beth. Not just because you're my sister, but because you're smart and fun and pretty and all the other things that a guy likes in a girl. Once we do this, nobody will ever know if you're ever with another guy, or who, or when. Mom and Dad are going to be letting you go out on car dates before long, and even though I'm never going to try and tell you who you can or can't or should or shouldn't go out with, I hope that you'll be real careful and picky who you choose. I hear some of the guys at school talking – the ones that go out with a lot of girls, I mean" – she nodded her understanding – "and word gets around fast if a girl isn't… careful about who she's with. I figure some of the girls get talked about when they don't deserve it, but it's still tough for them; I mean, how are they supposed to prove that they didn't jump in the back seat with some guy who says they did?" She nodded again before he continued "And I want you to know that if you go out with some guy that tries to do something you don't want him to, I'll be more than glad to let him know that wasn't right. I'm willing to protect you – as much as I can, and only as much as you want me to.", his last few words drawing a smile from her.
