A moment to think

With just the three of you, it was easier for you to let out a sigh as if now was your moment to relax.

“Looked like you were having fun over there” Emma teased, moving from where she was on the opposite sofa to join you and Sarah on the floor.

“I can’t complain” you joked back, feeling the need to lie down just like Lucy had been doing.

That left you looking up at the ceiling from the floor and let Emma take the opportunity to straddle you. Sarah followed suit and it took a moment to lie down on her front facing you.

With just the three of you, there was a moment where you considered telling Sarah the truth about the KDK but while you were still in the living room, it felt like anyone could overhear or walk back into the room when you wanted some privacy for Sarah to take in the information.

Emma gave you a look that made you think she was also considering the same, making small gestures over to Sarah as if trying to get your opinion.

“If you two wanna talk you can just tell me to leave if you want” Sarah interjected, sounding like she was trying to make a joke but there was a hint of something in her voice that told you she was upset at being excluded.

You both looked a little sheepish after that but you decided to just tell her your thoughts.

“We mentioned having a conversation with you later, right? We were just trying to figure out if now was a good time. I guess we weren’t being that sneaky.” you replied, finding it hard to check on Sarah’s reaction while you lay down.

While Emma stayed straddling your crotch, you lifted your upper body and settled on your elbows to talk face to face. Before Sarah made the decision to forget your last KDK conversation, she had said she wanted to talk after the party as the idea of adding to the stress beforehand felt like it would be too much.

You didn’t want to disrespect her wishes even if she didn’t remember them but there was also a chance that a better opportunity wouldn’t present itself after the party. Given how chaotic things had felt so far, now might be the time to make do.

The only other factor was that before you used the KDK effect to let Sarah forget the conversation where you told her everything, she had left herself a message on your phone. With her walking away so you couldn’t know what was said, that threw in yet another element of chaos that you couldn’t control into the mix.

“How are you feeling about tonight so far?” you asked, the question taking Sarah by surprise.

“I… It’s been fun. I was pretty nervous earlier, especially with my outfit choice, but now I think I’m starting to see that everyone has been feeling the same. I mean seeing Mom get flustered earlier when she had no underwear on helped a lot with that. Just knowing someone is even more nervous than me seemed to be enough to make me calm down I guess?” Sarah explained, nodding her head as she was able to put her thoughts into words.

You gave Emma another look but you didn’t get a yes or no answer from her on what to do, just a small shrug as she was still unsure too.

“So would you be happy having that conversation now that you aren’t as nervous? It might change your thoughts on a few things… a lot of things, but you won't have to do anything special or act any differently once you know. It… it will be a lot to process and…yeah” you asked, stopping yourself from explaining further while you were still in the living room.

“We’d explain the rest upstairs in your room for a bit more privacy” you added, deciding to be more cautious.

Sarah seemed to understand the warnings you were giving her and took some time to think about it, sitting up properly so she could focus.

“...I think I’d like to know now” Sarah revealed, once again nodding her head to herself as if saying the words solidified her decision.

“If you’re sure, we should probably start making a move” you responded, urging Emma to get up off of you by patting her ass.

With a smirk, you could tell she was reconsidering getting up after you started to grope her but Sarah was already getting to her feet, forcing her to get up alongside her.

You all headed for the door and just as you were about to head up the stairs, Mom, Grace and Rebecca came into view from the kitchen, having returned with 3 glasses of wine between them.

“And where are you three heading off to in a hurry?” Grace teased, that same smirk you had just seen on Emma now coming from Grace.

You still needed to head to the bathroom but that didn’t explain why Sarah and Emma could be accompanying you, making you think on your feet for a valid reason.

“Sarah didn’t wanna remove another piece of clothing yet so she’s taking a punishment. And while I had the chance I wanted to do it somewhere private. The same offer is open to everyone by the way.” you explained, looking round Grace to make eye contact with both Mom and Rebecca.

“And Emma?” Grace questioned, trying to poke holes in your lie.

“Emma won the bet and she wanted to help” you reasoned, ending it with a shrug to try and show you were being casual.

“...Just don’t take too long then” Grace finally replied after staring at you. As if she was trying to look into your soul for answers.

After that, it felt like all three of you were scrambling up the stairs to get away from them as soon as possible, making your way to landing without any issues.

You briefly split with Emma and Sarah, seeing that the bathroom door was locked, likely with Lucy inside. Instead you headed to Mom’s room to use her bathroom instead, deciding to clean up sooner rather than later.

Shutting the door behind you and locking it with a click, gave you a chance to let out a large breath, as if you had been holding in your stress until now.

You had no complaints at all about the night and were excited to let it continue, but you were still introverted at heart and just having a minute to mentally let yourself breathe was a godsend.

Freshening up took only a couple minutes but you gave yourself a little bit of leeway to…take a breather. Part of you realised you had been acting on instinct for most of the night as as soon as you let yourself think, you realised you were about to actually tell another person about the existence of the KDK again.

After having been worried about making sure Sarah was okay with it, you hadn’t actually considered how you felt about it personally.
