Gary can watch Bernie and her mom.

When Gary stepped back into the carpeted hallway of the mall's multiplex theater, he saw Bernie waiting for him with a smile on her face.

She leaned close and spoke quietly. "You know what we just talked about?" Bernie said. "Watching me with another woman? I have an idea. It may sound a little crazy but, you know, my mom and I masturbate each other and she would be totally fine with you being there with us. If...if you would be okay with it," she finished shyly.

Gary's heart thumped. "Wow."

It made, well, a lot of sense. Bernie and her mom were close that way, and Gary was almost inside that circle already. He and Joyce had masturbated together twice now. Joyce had offered her home in case he needed a place to have sex with his friend Peter. And Gary was sure Joyce wanted to see him give sexual pleasure to Bernie. So Bernie wondered if he was okay with seeing her touch her mom? It was sex, as long as nobody gets hurt, it's what makes the world go round. And he and Bernie had promised to be open from now on.

Gary said, "That's something that's important to you. Something that's good for you. How could I feel bad seeing it?" Gary knew he would have no trouble enjoying the sight of Joyce's pleasure and holding a firm erection in front of her lush golden nakedness. "It would be very special. I'd like that. As long as you think it's okay with you -- I don't want to mess things up for you between you and your mom."

Bernie hugged him tight. "It would be so good to have you there with us," she said.

Gary hugged her back. "If your mom wanted to watch us together, what would you think?"

Bernie looked Gary straight in the eyes. "Do you think she wants that?"

"Yes, I think so. How would you feel?"

Bernie took a deep breath.
