LXIIX


We'd left the city near the end of the dry season, if you could call it that. The rains were lighter during this part of the year, coming only once a day for a short time. More of a misting, than a real rain, but still rain. None of us could remember a day when it hadn't rained.

Lana, Tina, and I woke up during the afternoon rain, or misting as we called it. It served to bring attention to the fact that by the time the men, who would surely come, could possibly get here, the rains would have increased to the point of being uncomfortable, not to mention, bring the rivers out of their innocent looking banks. The misting also served to bring Cindy and Debbie back from the river, where they had been playing in the water.

They brought the canteens with them, and were leaving for more firewood, when I opened my eyes, only to close them again, as the warm rain increased it's tempo momentarily. I took it as a warning not to languish to long in this meadow. The meadow, without trees, here in the middle of the forest, was here because of the floods that would come with the heavy rains, just weeks away.

I roused my two companions, and told them about my thoughts.

"We must leave here and go find some sheltered, high ground, now. Later we won't have time to choose our place." Lana and Tina listened to what I said, while they took in the shape of our small meadow, and it's meaning.

"I can see what you mean just by looking at the land around us," said Lana, "But I don't know where we should go."

Tina just nodded as she turned in a circle, looking at the lay of the land, and the course of the rivers as the came together. Tina finally replied, first to Lana, "That's why we needed a man who has lived here in the wilderness." Then to me, "Tell us where, and we will go there."

"We have a little time to make the decision, but we must start looking now." I said, "The best, is a sharp ridge laying north to south, with a east face and fairly level ground coming all the way up to the foot of the face."

Tina asked, "Why those specifications? Any high ground should do."

"The prevailing weather comes from the west." I explained, "And the wind is constant for much of the time. Any high ground will do for survival, but the ground I described will offer the most shelter from the constant, blowing, heavy rains to come."

Neither Tina, nor Lana, had any more questions about the reason for my particular wants.

Soon Debbie and Cindy returned with the wood, and we told them about our decision to move camp. Both of them looked around nervously, as if they expected to see walls of water at any moment.

"We probably have about a month, maybe more, maybe less, but we should move from here, this week."

Debbie, "Have you told the others?"

"Not yet, let them alone for now." I replied, "They'll come up for air and food by tomorrow night!" We all looked over at the opening leading to the depression, where the two pairs of lovers were trysting, smiling knowingly amongst ourselves.

"I think perhaps you will be busy tonight!" It was Cindy addressing me, "With the four of us all needing your touch. There's is nothing like the knowledge of what is happening yonder, to make my juices flow." Cindy dipped her hand into her Honey Pot, and stirred freely.

I noted the look that was exchanged between Lana and Tina, and decided to go for a long walk. I left them saying, "I think you four have things to discuss over the final preparations for dinner, and I need to go look at the lay of the land. I'll be back before darkness falls, and my belly tells me dinner is welcome! I hope you can have it ready." then left without waiting for them to reply.

I skirted around the depression on my way to the top of a low hill to our east. There I could climb a tree, and hopefully see what I wanted to see. I knew what I wanted to know, within the hour, but I planned to delay my return as long as possible to allow the women in camp time to make their arrangements. I had no desire to be caught in the cat fight which seemed to be brewing!

"I hope I like their arrangement," I thought to myself. "None of them will like my solution if I'm forced to come up with one!" I thought wryly to myself, then selected a likely looking tree to climb.

After I'd left the four women in the meadow, the discussion was quick to heat up. Lana and Tina lost no time in telling Debbie and Cindy about our discussion while they were at the river. The two who were left out, so to speak, took it as well as could be expected I suppose, complaining loudly at the development.

I was minutely inspecting the lay of the land, while the women worked out their problems. It wasn't until I returned to the meadow that I found out what the solution was, or how it was come to, which was my design. When I did return, I was mildly shocked at the way the solution was arrived at, and who was involved in the decisions that were made, while I scouted for a likely place to set up a more permanent camp.

*** *** *** *** ***

The argument by the fire pit, had become so loud, that the lovers in the depression had come out to find out what all the noise was about. The four of them had approached the fire unnoticed, by the four disagreeing women, and had sat on the ground listening in as the heated discussion developed.

Apparently, Sean and Gil had kept their own counsel.

Toni and Lavern came to the conclusion that the situation would be eased if they were to share their men with Debbie and Cindy.

Tina told me later that Sean and Gil were shocked into stone, when Lavern and Toni waded into the fray. Each of them took the leg leash of two of their friends, dragging Cindy, Lana, Tina, and Debbie to the ground without warning. The two men watched as their lovers explained their solution and, offered them as mates for Cindy and Debbie, without even consulting the men!

The women were quick to see the fairness of the arrangement, after all, the math was simple. But it was the two men who balked at the idea! "We're just getting our sexual legs!" the two males lamented, "And aren't ready for multiple partners!"

It was Lana who capped the argument, and silenced both Sean and Gil. "When we were hanging in that tree," she pointed in the direction of the depression, and tree, "you two sampled each of us freely while Geof looked on." Lana paused to let her words sink in, then slowly went on, "We six hung there helpless while you drove each of us out of our minds! And rather badly, I might add, then used your cocks on us!"

"It didn't matter to you whether we wanted you or not, and we all suffered your ineptitude. At that time you were still treating us as if we were things, not people! I, for one, was never going to bring the subject up, but I think perhaps you should consider the group, instead of yourselves."

Lana stopped, out of words.

Gil and Sean listened to the arguments of the women, and could at least reason the math, if not emotionally embrace the reasoning. The two men retreated to a distance to discuss what they should do, finally calling Lavern and Toni to them. Tina and Lana both said they watched, as the men talked to their women, then turned and walked back to the depression, leaving Lavern and Toni to tell the others what had been said.

Lavern and Toni went back to the fire, where Lavern started to explain "Gill and Sean aren't happy about this, but they can see there's a problem." Toni continued, "They have gone to the tree to wait for us, and will accept whatever we decide." Lavern took over, "They aren't sure this solution will work, but will go along, and are deferring to Geof, for the final decision if there are further problems!"

There was silence in the meadow while their words sunk in. Toni resumed, "You should know, that Lavern and I don't really want to share our men emotionally either, but we made the offer to keep the peace, not because we like group sex!"

Debbie interjected, "Toni! You didn't mind a bit when it was you getting the bone in front of us in Lana's room, now did you?" Then to Lavern, "And you would have accepted Geof right there on the spot, in front of the group in the living room, if he'd have wanted to have you right there and then, when you won the draw for the right to be first as his prisoner, wouldn't you?"

Both Lavern, and Toni, looked down at the ground. What Debbie had said was true. Cindy then asked, "So who goes with who? Do we choose? Or is that up to you?"

Tina stepped forward, with two straws, and held them in her hand, "I propose drawing straws to decide. The short one goes with Lavern and Gil, and the long one goes with Toni and Sean."

Lavern and Toni looked at each other, then nodded their agreement, "Just wait a bit before you come up. Let us tell Sean and Gil how it was decided, and bring your straws!" The two of them turned without another word, and walked to the waiting men, and told them how the decision was made.

Debbie drew long, and Cindy drew short, then slowly followed their friends up the rise to the depression, leaving Lana and Tina to cook dinner, and worry over my late return.
