Let’s not make this a regular thing

Even though this has been an amazing experience, was it something I wanted to be frequent? While I was less concerned about it straining our relationship than before, it was still possible making that choice would upend a lot of our schedule. I couldn’t lie to myself and say the trade-off wasn’t appealing, it was just that part of me questioned if that was truly a good idea.

I did enjoy spending time with Rina, but I still wanted to spend the majority of my time with Nia. She just quit the swimming team for that reason, after all. Although we had both agreed to this plan, it wasn’t as if we set out to make this a regular thing. We had initially set out to do this so we could spice things up, and I felt like we’d achieved that. Frankly, more so than I’d expected; I could masturbate to the memories of this week alone for the next year and be happy with that.

It wasn’t as if I didn’t want more, though. There was a greedy voice in the back of my head screaming of all the possibilities we’ve yet to explore, and I couldn’t disagree with it. But I wanted to explore this at a more even, slower pace than we’ve been doing up to now.

Emery: I don’t want to stop doing this, but I think I want to make it occasional.

Nia: Mmmkay sweetie, that’s fine by me. How occasional are you thinking?

Emery: Once every month or two? We got into this to kill some stress after all, so I don’t see why we can’t have it be a special event. Like when we go to the massage parlor.

Rina: Oh? I’ve been upgraded from sexfriend to sexual masseuse? You gonna start paying me for the hard work?

Nia: You’re pretty good with deep tissue~, so maybe you have a point. But I’m getting a refund if you hurt me again!

We all got a good laugh out of that.

Rina: Joking aside though, that sounds good to me. Being honest with myself, I should probably be focusing on straightening my life out. Switching my major, moving, working two jobs…I’m kinda fucking swamped if I think about it, hehe. I doubt you guys are swimming in free time yourself.

Nia: Actually it was the swimming in my free time that was keeping me busy hahaha!

Emery: Hah, good one hun.

Nia: It comes naturally.

Nia shrugged in false modesty and smiled with confidence. Rina smirked as she watched us, rolling her eyes at the cheesy display.

Rina: Now that we’ve decided what we’re doing for the foreseeable future, should we decide on any specific preferences?

Nia: If we’re just gonna do it every month or so, why don’t we just stick to what we’re doing? It’s not like we’re gonna get bored after all. We can play it by ear if a certain mood strikes us.

Emery: A fair point my love. If anything really sounds exciting to us, then we can run it by the group chat. Otherwise, we can use these meet ups as an excuse to unwind and let out some pent up sexual energy.

Rina: Oh man, you wanna talk about pent up. I’m gonna be dying for these sessions by the time they come around haha.

Nia: Don’t worry, we’ll make sure they’re worth the wait~.

Rina: Oh I don’t doubt it. You guys were freaky enough to run this deal by me in the first place, remember?

Emery: How could I forget? I don’t think I’ve ever been so embarrassed!

Nia: I was so anxious!

Rina: Furreal man, me too.

Rina: …Hey, can I make one small request though?

Nia: Shoot.

Emery: What’s up?

Rina: …We can still hang normally, right? Even when it has nothing to do with this?

That was unexpected. She had asked rather solemnly, was she concerned we wouldn’t hang out with her if we didn’t have a reason?

Nia: Girl what? Do you even have to ask? Course we will!

Emery: We wanted to do this with you because you’re our friend. You’re not our friend because you’re doing this with us.

Rina: I know, it’s just…You know, people catch up, say they wanna hang out, but then everyone is too busy. Plans end up falling through, texts become less frequent. Nobody means anything by it, we just get busy, but… Before you know it, you only see them at the store, maybe in class, briefly small talking about a bunch of shallow crap and what-ifs that you both know won’t happen…

This drew a heavy sigh from Nia.

Nia: Oof, Rina, too real. I feel called out, hehe. I’ve done that with too many girls from the swim team, and I worry it’ll just get harder to stay in contact as we get older…

Emery: Yeah, adult life is hard sometimes…

Oh man, that was a little depressing to think about. I didn’t want to fall out of contact with Rina until she’s basically a stranger, all because we weren’t having sex regularly.

Nia: But you know what? We don’t have to let things go down like that if we don’t want them to.

Emery: Yeah, there’s no way we’re letting that happen. Right, Rina?

She paused and looked at us contemplatively, then beamed brightly.

Rina: Too true! No take backs though, so you guys better not regret that hehehe. I’m gonna blow your phones the fuck up with work rants.

Nia: You promise? Em hates talking shit about his coworkers, so I’d love to spill some tea with you!

Emery: Yep. Nia does the same thing, so you’ll be in good company. I don’t like to do it myself, but I love reading them, so don’t be afraid to share.

Rina: Hell yeah. I’m looking forward to it.

We continued on like that for the remainder of the time I had before class; chit-chatting about all the different activities — sexual or otherwise — that we were looking forward to doing together. I was happy with how things turned out. Down the line we could make our swinging a more regular thing if we wanted, but even if we didn’t, I was happy we got closer to Rina. Having another close friend we could count on was just as fulfilling in its own way. Hopefully we could be together for many years to come.

Normal End
