Tim and Abbie get up and get going. There is much to do today.  Abbie cleans herself up from her cat outfit as Tim heads downstairs to start dinner.  As he goes, Tim tells Abbie to put the cat suit away carefully as he would look forward to a return engagement.  He soon has the house smelling deliciously with the fragrances of the meal ahead today.

Back upstairs, Tim and Abbie take a long, luscious bath. First, Tim enjoys washing the last remnant of Abbie’s whiskers away. Then, after a bit of side enjoyment of cleaning each other’s special parts leading to bringing that to fruition for each other, they are dressed, both relaxed for the day, and ready to receive visitors. 

Abbie is wearing a pretty plaid red and green dress, more red than green, with a low neck of a black velvet collar.  Tim has on a lighter green shirt with a plaid tie matching Abbie’s dress.  She saw to that.

All three couples had opened their private gifts to each other before gathering, but they all have other presents, along with those for their friends they will open later in the day.

A little after noon Les and Phoebe come over.  The weather has turned some, and it is getting rather cold out as they come in.  Actually, snow is starting to fall.  Abbie is so excited to have a white Christmas.  Tim just laughs, saying it is all from her movie last night.  Abbie affectionately punches him but says, yes, let it snow.

Not much later, they hear a knock at the kitchen door again.  This is strange, as only Les and Phoebe, coming across the drive, come that way.  Abbie opens the door, and Grace and Sam walk in.  Grace is just a bubble of nerves and can’t stand still. Grabbing Abbie, she jumps around.

“Get your coat, quick, you have to see,” Grace can barely get out.  Tim and Sam just smile at each other as Tim does know what is going on.  Abbie, confused, gets her coat from the door rack.  Grace pulls her out the door and down their garden path in the back to the alley.

They cross the alley and into the yard behind Les’s and to its backdoor.  Grace opens it and pulls Abbie inside.  “What are we doing here, Grace?  The owners might not like it,” Abbie says.

“Oh, they are not going to mind at all because they are Sam and me!!” Grace spills out with glee, hugging Abbie and dancing around again.  It takes Abbie a second to comprehend what Grace is saying, and then she joins in Grace’s happy dance.

They whirl around the living room together, hugging each other for several minutes as it sinks into each of them that they will be neighbors, close neighbors, both in location, but in fellowship.  The friendship between Abbie and Grace is something neither of them has ever had before. And with someone so like themselves is a bit strange, but that makes it perfect.

Dancing to some tune in both their heads, excited about the wonder of having their best friend living so close.  It is all ideal.  Who could ask for more?  They pull back from each other and look into the other’s eyes.

They kiss, and yes, it is a bit more than just a kiss.  They pull back quickly, realizing this is what happened before.  But they still stare deeply at each other they lean and kiss again.  Their bodies are pressed together tightly, feeling each other’s breasts against their own.  Their hot pussies are pushing against each other, wanting each other so much, but know they don’t dare.

Grace can feel Abbie’s small cock hard against her dripping cunt.  It just adds to this erotic desire they have for each other.  They continue to kiss, exploring each other’s mouths, their tongue’s taking an intricate tour of each other.  Pressing closer and closer together. They so want to fall on the couch and really explore and delight each other. But know that would be a huge mistake.  This is Sam and Grace’s brand new house and should not be compromised before Grace and Sam experience first in every room.

Both know they need to pull apart and stop this, but just a minute more.  And then a minute more.  Finally, Abbie and Grace do pull away.  Both blush from the rush running through them and the embarrassment of what they just did.  They love Tim and Sam. Why are they doing this?  Abbie and Grace realize their friendship has stepped over the line, and there is going to be this other emotion between them at times. 

They can try to ignore it, but it just will erupt when the happiness between them overtakes them.  And that is what it is, really.  When Abbie and Grace feel a sense of utter bliss with each other, there seems no other way to express it between them.

The two times have been no more than heavy petting sessions, the first time seeing each other in their underwear.  Grace viewed the outline of Abbie’s ‘large clit’ through the fabric.  But what about in the future?  Would they feel the need to explore more and more, to the point of sucking and pleasuring each other?

This strange desire between the two of them that comes over them from time to time needs to have perimeters that they feel comfortable with.  It is so crucial that they again tell Tim and Sam and allow them to set rules if there is any chance they indulge themselves again.

Both love their mates truly and fully and do not want to do anything to hurt those relationships.  It will be up to the two men to tell them whether they can accept this side interest Abbie and Grace seem to have with each other.  And just how far would they want to go to show each other not just the passion they seem to have for each other, but the love and affection.

It is something they can’t really talk about today, but they need to, seriously, soon. Both between the two of them and with Tim and Sam. It will be up to them to decide if Grace and Abbie should be disciplined and if it is alright for the women to give in to their desires in the future.

Right now, they need to fix their make-up and hair and go on as if nothing happened.

Grace takes the role of the proud homeowner and continues to show Abbie around the house, saving the special room for last.  They ooh and awe over each room and comment on Sam’s good taste and knowledge of Grace’s preferences for things.

Then, Grace shows Abbie the special room and tells her about the wonderful morning there and her first spanking.  “Abbie, I can’t explain how magnificent it was.  It was even more than what you told me about letting all the toxins and guilt leave you.  And the mixture of arousal.  Yes, the sting and pain, but the lust just as much.  I still feel the warmth from it and don’t want it to fade yet.” Grace confesses.

Abbie smiles and assures her, “That is how it is the first time, and often after too.  It is a strange feeling, not everyone can understand.  Those who do, want it as part of their lifestyle, and those who don’t understand think it is odd and some perverse. 

“But as long as Sam agrees with you, who cares.  I am glad you finally have experienced what you have been longing for. And found someone willing and understanding about it.”

Grace nods and replies, “Actually, as you see in the room, Sam wants to be accountable too, so soon the tables will be turned, and I will have to spank him.  I hope I am up to it.  He did such an amazing job today. I don’t want to shortchange him.”

Abbie laughs and assures her that she is sure Grace will be up to the challenge when it comes.  The two laughing, the kiss between them forgotten.  They put their coats back on and scurry through the snow back to Abbie’s house, where they are welcomed with all the smells of a Christmas dinner about to be served. 

They take off their coats and come into the room.  Grace is wearing Abbie’s last year’s Christmas dress.  Almost identical to this year.  A black velvet collar, but green is predominant over the red in the plaid.  The two look like twins, or as Abbie likes to say, her and her mini-me.  They giggle together, coming in and greeting everyone with excitement over Sam and Grace’s new house.

Over a prime rib dinner cooked to perfection, Yorkshire pudding, salad, sides, and gravy, the conversation is about Sam and Grace’s new house and them as neighbors.  More so on how King’s Lane development is changing with redevelopment and how good it will be. 

Sam is becoming a big part of it with all the requests he is getting to remodel/redesign/flip houses in the complex.  Sam talks some about the strain on his company's current ability to do the jobs they are getting with the quality Sam demands. Also, the possibilities of expanding, which he is seriously considering, but there are so many considerations.

Hearing Sam talk about this now, Grace realizes she has had her head in her books too much.  Sam has a lot on his plate and mind, which she hasn’t been paying attention to.  And perhaps why he said she needed discipline.  Grace needs to watch for red flags for when maybe Sam does need time in their special room himself soon, or just love and comfort.

Then the conversation turned to lighter topics as they cleared away things from dinner and bring out drinks, snacks, and desserts for later in the day when others arrived. Finally, everything is cleaned up and ready for the next round. They sit down to enjoy drinks and watch some holiday movies and the tree's lights.  A little later, the doorbell rings, with guests begin arriving around four in the afternoon.
