THE TOUCH Chapter 42 Sisterly Love

As much as I had appreciated the wonderful week that Gwen and I had alone together whilst Emma was in France with Maggie and the twins it was great to have things back to normal on Monday morning even though we faced another disruptive week at home with both Gwen and I away for several days

I had walked up to Maggie's house around 2pm when Gwen had telephoned to say that she had prepared some lunch for us and being a nice warm day we had taken our sandwiches and a bottle of chilled Greek Santorini wine out onto Maggie's patio by the swimming pool and sat side by side on the bench seat our elbows touching enjoying the spring sunshine.

"So how did Miss Thunder-Thighs' party go last night? She asked me, "I hope that you took good care of Auntie Rebecca..."

"Yeah, good..." I mumbled through a mouthful of ham and cheese sandwich. "I think that she may have picked up a couple of more commissions from Caroline's friends, she really is very talented you know. Several people showed an interest in having gardening work done... although most of them live a bit outside of our normal catchment area..."

"Would that present a problem, darling?"

"No, I wouldn't think so... before she started the garden centre Maggie undertook landscaping design contracts all over the country and Uncle Robert even did some designs for properties in France and Ireland, even Australia... the designing is not an issue... it's the logistics of a team having to travel to do the physical work and follow up maintenance that needs to be factored in... that is the only issue that I have with doing the roof garden job for Caroline in London...being a new company we do not want to start sub-contracting work out at the moment, Maggie and I would much rather use our own people who we know and trust."

"So was she pleased with your designs?"

"Oh yes," I replied. "Actually, we spend most of the night going over the plans and redrawing some details to include a couple of new ideas she wanted added in...It got late and I slept in her guest room and came back this morning..."

Thankfully she decided not to tease me about staying over. Gwen would never ask if I had had sex with Caroline, and I had promised never to talk about time I spent with other women, although she must have known or at least suspected that I had a sexually active relationship with Janice Copman at least, and frequently teased me about that. For some reason I had been unable to fathom both Gwen and Emma seemed to accept that I might have some sort of relationship with Janice and were OK with it. It was part of what Gwen and I needed to do to make our relationship work... as long as we didn't talk about it that was OK. It was something that she had insisted on, but something that I still had my reservations about and it only worked one way. She insisted that because of our age difference I should see other 'younger' women. But I knew that I would be totally devastated if she had a relationship with another man. That had been brought home to me with a vengeance a couple of months ago when I made a jealous pillock of myself because Maggie went out on a date, I could not conceive how I would have felt had it been Gwen.

"Gwen, can I ask you something?" I wanted to steer the conversation away from the events of last night. "Do you remember a man called Sir Kenneth Callaghan... Lord Westlake...?"

"Oh yes," she replied. "A nice man, he was one of Daddy's friends, your grandfather... He worked for him when I was a girl...and visited us regularly..."

"I met him at Caroline Brookes's party last night..."

"Really!"

"Yes, he is the chairman of the banking company Caroline works at... He introduced himself to me and told me that he knew Granddad before he died and had lunch with Uncle Arthur sometimes. He seemed very well informed about the garden centre and Maggie and me..." I decided not to mention that he had requested the party be held in order to meet with me... THAT was just too curious.

Gwen chuckled. "That sounds just like Kenny... He was just plain Kenny Callaghan when I knew him... But he was always well ahead of the game which is why he soared to the top professionally and picked up his OBE, then a knighthood and eventually a peerage for services to British industry. He was Daddy's favourite protégé, and he was almost your uncle..."

"What!" I exclaimed in surprise, "But surely Maggie is too young..."

"No, not Maggie, idiot..." Gwen laughed. "Aunt Susan... She dated Kenny for a few months before meeting your Uncle Andrew...and I think Mother and Daddy were expecting them to get hitched. When she met, got engaged to and then married Andrew Christie in double quick time I think Kenny was quite devastated and went off to work in Hong Kong... I never really saw him after that. He kept in touch with your Grandfather and Uncle Arthur... and I believe that he made it up with Susan after he met and married his wife and Susan and Andrew were guests at his house sometimes."

I hadn't seen my other aunt since I was a tiny child and so didn't really know her at all, I could have passed her in the street and would not have recognised her, she lived in York, where her husband had been a consultant mason at York Minster until he died a few months back after a sudden heart attack. She had fallen out with Mum years ago, but they seemed to have resolved their differences after Uncle Andrew's funeral and I knew that they now spoke on the telephone every couple of weeks.

"I will ask her if she is still in touch with him," she added, "I shall be seeing her one evening this week, the house where she now lives is about halfway between York and Harrogate and we have arranged to meet for dinner at my hotel one evening."

"That's nice...I am glad that you two are getting along now."

"I think that you ought to make an effort to see her as well," Gwen put in, "We are not a big family and she is all alone now... besides... she may be thinking about moving back down south now that Andrew is gone, there is nothing to keep her in Yorkshire... most of the people she knows up there were really Andrew's friends. Susan never really did mix well, she doesn't make an effort to endear herself to other people."

"I always send her a card at Christmas and her birthday..." I pouted guiltily.

"No! I always send her cards and sign them from you and Emma..." Gwen corrected, for a moment she was my mother again scolding her errant son. "Better get used to the idea that she may be around, my darling... Maggie is thinking of inviting her to stay with her whilst she looks for a place to live...with the girls away there is plenty of room at the house..."

"Do you three get on well enough for that?" I asked. It had been difficult when Aunt Nikki Bardin had been staying with Maggie a few weeks ago... all families have issues but why women can't play nicely sometimes escapes me.

"Susan is ten years older than Maggie and I, so she had already left home and was married by the time that we were teenagers...and as much as I try, I can't really remember her being around when I was a kid..." Gwen explained. "She can be a bit of a snob at times... Susan and Andrew fully approved of Robert de Vere...he was a bit of a celebrity, had status and money and so she always kept in touch with Maggie and the girls." She gave a deep sigh, "Unfortunately, with or without good reason, she hated the sight of your father and I really did not know her well enough to be terribly concerned when we fell out over it... But I guess that time changes attitudes if not people..."

I really didn't want to get into a conversation about my father especially with Gwen, we had each other now and for me it was as if he had never existed most of the time. Nobody could see us in the enclosed pool area and so I pulled her to me and our lips met in a moist clinging kiss. "So-o-o-o how about we get out of our clothes and into the swimming pool...?" I suggested changing the subject and running my hand up the back of her tee shirt and gently tugging at her bra strap.

"Oh, no you don't... Jamie Riley..." She laughed, springing up from the seat. "Maggie could be home any time now and I don't think that it would be a good idea for your aunt and sister to catch us shagging in her pool...do you?"

"We could just swim..."

"It wouldn't end there, and you know it," Gwen chuckled, "My son and lover is a pervert who wallows in finding new and unique places to shag his poor mother... Especially if there is water involved."

Images immediately sprung into my mind of Maggie and I skinny dipping in the same pool a couple of weeks ago and the thought of Gwen and Maggie naked and wet started to cause unwanted movement in my trousers. She was right of course... we could not risk our happiness, everybody's happiness, by taking silly risks no matter how tempting.

"If you are determined to get wet..." she teased.

"Yes?" I responded eagerly, erotic visions of showers or baths springing into my head, that huge sunken bath at the Mountbatten Hotel that we had shared during our trip to the ballet was still one of the highlights of my life.

"You can come into the kitchen and wash and prepare some vegetables for supper tonight..." she chuckled. "...and then wash up the dishes."

Maggie and Emma got home around 6pm and we all sat around her big kitchen table and enjoyed the tasty lamb stew with red and green peppers on a bed of root vegetables that Gwen had prepared and updated each other on the highlights of our respective weeks in France and at home. After supper Maggie and I left Gwen and Emma clearing up and went outside, unloaded the Range Rover and I put Emma's bags into Gwen's car and then took Maggie's cases up to her room.

"It's really great to have you home, Maggie..." I told her when we were alone. "Things are not the same when you are not around..." . I seriously missed Maggie when she was away and I was not seeing her at work every day, work was fine as always; I just seriously missed Maggie.

She laughed. "Good...it is nice to be missed... if truth be known I am glad to be home... I love spending time with the girls but being around Nikki can still be a bit of a strain even though she tried really hard to be pleasant this trip..."

She gave me a little hug. "We can spend some time tomorrow catching up... and you can explain to me why it is that I am so badly missed but as soon as I get home you decide to bugger off for a few days...?"

I obviously couldn't tell her about my liaison with Gill, "It was just..." I started lamely.

"She laughed and put her arm through mine and guided me back down the stairs, "It's OK Jamie, I am just teasing you... you deserve some time off and I can understand you wanting to try out your new caravanette... you can tell me all about it tomorrow..."

Gwen and Emma had just finished the washing up when we returned to the kitchen. "Right you lot..." Maggie announced, "It is time for you all to piss off home to your own beds... I have been driving since seven o'clock this morning, I'm tired and I want to go to bed now..."

"My car...?" Emma asked me.

I held up her car keys, "Why don't you follow Mum and me home ... Or if you are too tired I will drive your car and you can ride with Mum...?"

"I'll drive," she said eagerly, "But I want you to ride with me Jay..."

We all exchanged hugs with Maggie and she secretly squeezed my hand before I went down to the garage and exchanged Maggie's Range Rover for Emma's little soft top Beetle and then locked up. When we got to the bottom of the back lane Emma pulled up at the rear gate of the garden centre and I waved Gwen on and made a quick inspection of the yard and offices to ensure that everything was locked up and secure for the night before getting back in the car with my sister.

As soon as I was seated Emma leaned over and gave me a small kiss on the lips. "You haven't told me that you missed me, yet..." She pouted.

"Christ Ems, you telephoned me from France nearly every day..."

"SAY IT..." she hissed and dug her strong finger tips into my thigh.

"SHIT! OK...OK... I missed you..."

"That's better," She giggled, "You can't just fuck me and then ignore me you know..."

"I don't think that you would let me ignore you, Emma..." I chuckled. I truth I didn't want to. I lowered my face, pressing my lips hard against hers. Her lips slipped apart our mouths open in a deep, breath-taking lust driven kiss, our tongues dancing and twisting; thrusting and probing in a fury of passion that went on for long minutes until we broke apart panting and gasping for breath. This was my little sister but I found her sexy and desirable and I was still not sure which of us had seduced the other the day before she went to France, but we had shared a fantastic shag and we both knew that it was not going to stop there.

I eased her away "We had better go Emma... Mum will be wondering what has happened to us..."

She started the car and for several minutes we drove in silence. "Jay?" She started in a small quiet voice. "You aren't going away to avoid me are you...things are good between us aren't they?" I guessed that she was still feeling a little bit unsure of things between us since we had finally made love together a week ago.

"Yes, or course things are good... We will find a way to spend some time alone really soon..." I said as we pulled into our drive.

"We better had..." she hissed. "All this time waiting for you to get around to shagging me has left me seriously randy... You owe me at least three years' worth of fucking..."

"I'll give you an IOU..." I chortled.

"I'm done with waiting... you owe me and I want payment NOW!" She growled with an evil grin. I remembered Janice telling me that my sister was turning into a dangerous sex starved beast... I thought it was a joke but now I was beginning to wonder...

I had cleared out the garage whilst Emma was away so that there was now plenty of room for her Beetle and Gwen's Polo to park side by side, whilst I would leave Vera in the drive for the time being. Gwen had agreed to my erecting a carport to protect the caravanette and I needed to get in touch with Boris Keppel our builder to get the work done. As we walked back to the house Gwen came to the back door and called out that she had made hot chocolate for all of us.

"OK..." Emma shouted back, "I just want Jamie to show me his new van...!"

Emma didn't say anything at all whilst she walked around the outside of Vera, not until we climbed inside. "Wow, Jay...it is really fantastic... It's great!" She enthused. "Show me the bed."

I showed her how the bed folded out from the cushioned seats, "See, plenty of room and it's really comfortable too..." I guess that that may have been the wrong thing to say.

"Jay?" she said softly, "We will fuck again won't we... If we keep it a secret between us... " she giggled, "then we can do it again... can't we? We MUST... " she added, "I think I've become a sex addict... it's all I have been able to think about whilst I was away in France..."

"Of course we will... but we need to be careful" I meant it too; I knew that we would fuck again, not just because Emma wanted to but because I did as well. It had taken a long time but I had finally admitted to myself that I wanted to have sex with my sister; it might be all wrong but I really did want to fuck with my sister a lot more. She looped her arms around my neck and gave an anything but sisterly hug, nuzzling her face into my throat. Having her in my arms pressed close to me was starting to make me aroused already... I didn't know if she could feel the beginnings of my erection pressing against her leg but it was she who broke away.

"OK I can wait... but not for long... Lets' go and get our chocolate now..."

We all sat together in the drawing room drinking our chocolate and nibbling at digestive biscuits until finally it was Emma who admitted that she was tired after a full days travelling and needed to go to bed. Gwen and I waited until we heard her go into the bathroom and turn on the shower and then risked a quick embrace and kiss before she also decided to turn in for the night leaving me to lock up and lay out the breakfast things for the morning. I went upstairs, there was no light showing beneath Gwen's bedroom door, or Emma's and so I guessed that both were in bed and asleep and so went to my own room and sat for ten minutes in my old leather club chair smoking before changing into my silk sleeping shorts and tee-shirt and getting into bed.

I was just dropping off to sleep when I was awoken by a low metallic click followed by the soft rustle of bare feet on the carpeted floor. Half asleep I started to sit up and reach for my bedside lamp when a finger pressed across my lips demanding silence and I felt the warm breath of lips by my ear.

"Sh-h-h-h-h-sh! Stay still or you may wake Mum!" Emma whispered in my ear and then I felt her warm lips brush across my cheek and find my own in a gentle fluttering kiss. At the same time my duvet was moved aside and she insinuated her slim body next to mine on the bed.

"Christ Emma...what are you doing...?" I hissed as quietly as I could. "If Mum wakes up...!"

"She is asleep and I locked your door..." Emma murmured. It was unlikely that Gwen would hear anything, our bedrooms were at opposite ends of the house, but what Emma was doing was dangerous. This was just the sort of thing that we needed to avoid... however exciting the risk might seem at the time. Tomorrow I would need to speak to her about making some rules for everybody's protection.

"Emma, for God's sake get out of my bed and go back to your own room!" I whispered urgently.

"Not until you have fucked me...Jay!" She wriggled her body until she was laying prone atop of mine. "I have decided that I can't wait... I've been thinking about it all the time I was in France, and I want it NOW...before you fuck off and leave me again..."

"Ems we can't...really we can't..." I insisted but at the same time my body was betraying my principals and I knew that she could feel the erection that she had provoked pressing into her soft little belly, trapped between us.

"Oh we can... We must..." she purred softly and I felt her draw the hem of her tee-shirt up and suddenly the moist warmth of her pussy was pressing against my prick through the thin silk of my shorts. "Just one thrust... That's all I want... Just put it in once... And then I will go back to bed..."

Just one thrust...that seemed reasonable. At that moment my brains were located in the throbbing glans of my cock... one thrust seemed more than reasonable... I just needed to get my shorts eased down a little further...

Emma's whole body was starting to shudder gently with anticipation. "Please Jay... Put it in... just a little way... Pl-e-e-e-a-s-e!"
