“I just wouldn’t have guessed it is all,” Lily said, trying to organize her thoughts and figure out a way to get the conversation back on a fun track and not one where she was a complete ass. She decided she was going to have to give some more context here. “I mean, maybe I had a little crush on you in high school.” Hanna seemed momentarily stunned and then frustrated. “Why? Because I didn’t let you fuck me in high school, even though you hooked up with every other ‘curious’ girl? Just because you like girls and I like girls doesn’t mean we were going to hookup, Lily.” The sting in Hanna’s voice was unmistakable and shocked the room into a brief silence.

“Damn, I feel a bit out of place here,” Maya said cautiously, but with a smirk on her face.

Hanna again was speaking straightfacts,and to avoid digging herself into a deeper hole, Lily asked the question she really wanted to know. “Did you want me to fuck you?” Lily asked with a frankness she mastered long ago, but found herself nervous for Hanna’s answer.

“Maybe,” Hanna said quietly, and Lily felt the room tilt slightly under the weight of the revelation.

Lily’s former crush was now a fully revived crush.

“I mean to be fair, I picked up on that three ciders ago, there is def something between you two,” Maya said, shrugging her shoulders.

There was another beat of silence before Hanna said, “I thought…I mean, you clearly have been flirting with Maya.”

“It’s true, you have been,” Maya nodded in agreement, “but for what it’s worth, Hanna girl, you are beautiful.”

What the fuck was happening here? Did Maya have more game than her?

“What is happening here?” Lily said out loud.

“Oh, come on, you were laying it on so thick before,” Maya said.

“I didn’t think, well, I thought maybe—” Lily started.

“That I’d get uncomfortable and you’d get to have Maya in your cabin of ‘love’?” Hanna said, her voice still laced with annoyance, and Lily thought, jealousy?

“I was planning on just seeing where this all went. I don’t know,” Lily muttered and shrugged, trying to not let on that her mind was still trying to process and catch up.

There was another beat of silence before Maya spoke again. “Where do we want it to go?”

“What do you mean?” Hanna said, her voice losing its edge and coming out breathy.

“I mean, let’s just put the cards on the table here. We’ve been pussyfooting around for like two hours in this obvious sex pad,” Maya said.

Lily felt herself nod slightly before saying, “And we have been presented here with an opportunity where we are all into each other.”

“We are?” Hanna asked incredulously.

“We are,” Maya said back.

Lily’s heart hammered in her chest. She had been sure Hanna would eventually leave and she would be able to kiss sweet Maya. But both?

Holy shit.

Maya set her cider aside and then leaned forward onto her knees so she could get closer to Lily and Hanna.

“I’d like to make out with both of you. Is that ok?”

“God, yes,” Lily breathed out before she could really think about it.

“Make out? That’s it?” Hanna said, her face flushing.

“Good point, anyone have any hard boundaries?” Lily said, her mouth beginning to water. Her body responding to what her mind was still trying to process.

“None,” Maya said, “Honestly this break is already going way better than I thought.”

“I want to try everything and anything,” Hanna blurted. When Maya smiled at her she added, “It’s why I broke up with Jeff.”

“Ah,” Lily heard herself say.
