He Snared His Best Friend’s Girl

… Who was also his wife’s sister! Once upon a time, there was a beautiful fifteen-year-old school girl called Nicole. It would have been strange if she hadn’t been picked up…

Nicole had Hair of Gold

Once upon a time, there was a beautiful fifteen-year-old school girl called Nicole. She had hair as blonde as Marilyn and her figure was shaping up too. It would have been strange if she hadn’t been picked up walking home from class one day. The young man who opened his car door was Seamus. He’d spotted her every afternoon leaving work — for two weeks — before he finally decided to do something about the pounding of blood his cock felt each time he caught a glimpse of her swaying hips…

HOLD ON Readers… NB from author: The best stories are usually all about ‘showing the reader’ via the characters actions, rather than just telling them the story with words. However, I think that on occasions a tale simply needs to be told. Like this true fictionalised account about the early lives of a family/friend group, shaped by youth, some difficult events and some downright scandalous behaviour.… What makes it even more outrageous is I knew these people in a past life. Socialised with them many moons ago. So settle down and enjoy the ride. I have only used a little bit of artistic licence as, of course, I was not a fly on the wall!

Perhaps even use the listen facility to appreciate the twists and turns of Seamus and Nicole’s life from the late 1990s — Set in South East England’s suburbs.

… Seamus was twenty, had a wicked smile and a voice that oozed sex. You know the type. They could read the telephone directory out loud, and still you’d find a wet patch in your knickers as you took yourself off to the toilets to masturbate about the alluring tone of said voice.

Nicole turned him down. She had been brought up well enough to not jump into a stranger's car, even if the vehicle belonged to a cute guy. But Seamus saw the look in her eyes when he smiled that special smile and knew it was simply a matter of time.

Three weeks later, his hand was down her panties while they watched Al Pacino on the big screen in the back row of the cinema.

Luckily, Nicole’s parents liked him and let him sleep over in their daughter’s bedroom once she turned sixteen. They thought it better to have Nicole safe under the family roof than shagging down some dark alleyway.

Soon after, she left school and landed a great job as a doctor's receptionist and moved into a shared house with Seamus and a couple of his work colleagues.

It was love.

The three guys were entrepreneurs, if you like. They had started their own carpentry firm. All had trained in this line but had different skills. Seamus was the brains. Benny the brawn and Karl the money.

They worked hard but, of course being young, they partied long!

Nicole had a sister, Sandra, only two years older. They were as different as chalk and cheese. Let's just say Nicole had been blessed with beauty and a quick wit. Sandra, who worked at the local supermarket, was her mousy sidekick. Even their parents favoured their youngest child.

However, Benny wasn’t fussy. It was hard going, living in a house with Seamus and his bird. Benny’s dick could not help but lust after the gorgeous Nicole. But she was his best friend's girl. He needed to find his own. Sandra was a dead cert, and at the end of the day — for Benny always the clown at a party — sex was sex.

Sandra was easy pickings, and soon Benny and her were going steady. However, she was shrewd and knew she may not find someone as well positioned in life with work and family connections, so moving fast she was pregnant before most people realised they were actually an item.

Benny felt kind of proud he had the ability to create a new life. He bought a small two-bedroom house on the edge of town, and the two of them moved in a month before Benny-junior was born.

Nicole and Seamus were asked to be god parents and were smitten with the newborn. The business was going well, so Seamus bought a larger property around the corner from Sandra and Benny, before getting down on one knee and proposing to the vibrant Nicole.

Even though by now she was only nineteen she could not remember a time when she hadn't loved Seamus, so threw herself in his arms screaming,

Yes yes yes…

The wedding was a grand affair. The girl's parents were thrilled about the marriage and being recent grandparents. They secretly felt Nicole was doing things in the correct order and looked forward to an announcement that she too would be a mother.

But Nicole wanted to kick back and enjoy a little more while she was still young. She and Seamus took in some lavish holidays and, as they were both working, furnished their house from top to bottom with designer items. Life was good. They were the perfect couple, in the perfect house, living the life they wanted.

Meanwhile, Sandra was feeling the strain. She hoped for a better home and to be married. Why hadn’t Benny asked her? There was only one thing for it. Another child. Then surely he’d want her to be his wife, and with a growing family they would need a larger property.

Without telling him Sandra stopped taking her contraceptive pill. Within three months she was pregnant and finally Benny agreed they should be married.

Sandra was in the third trimester when she walked down the aisle. Behind her, all eyes were on the ravishing Nicole, the maid of honour. Seamus was the best man and watched on proudly as his wife turned heads at her own sister’s wedding. His heart swelled. He felt a very lucky man.

After the arrival of their second nephew, finally Nicole decided it was time. She was ready to give up the expensive holidays and latest gadgets and get down to the business of starting a family. Excited and looking forward to her future with Seamus and their yet to be born child. Everyone agreed they would make excellent parents. You only had to watch them caring for Sandra and Benny’s children to see this was true.

Let’s Make Whoopee

Not only that, Seamus and Nicole were still besotted about each other even though it was nearly ten years since they had first met outside her school. It was not a difficult task getting down to making babies.

Nicole rode him in the morning before they both started their work day. Then, when he came home, a little sweaty from the days grime, he would take her wherever she happened to be. On the kitchen table, bending over the sofa, kneeling on the stairs. She loved to breathe in his personal aroma as he thrust into her, filling her with his seed.

After, they would jump into their large bath together, with a glass of wine and chat about their day.

Six months went by and where ever she went Nicole was greeted with,

Sometimes it takes a while for your ovaries to return to normal from taking the pill for so long…

and…

If I was you, I’d give conception every chance. Lay on the floor with your legs up against the wall after sex.

Their lives changed. No more long relaxing baths. Sex now almost began to feel like part of their “to-do” list, and something to be crossed off at the end of the day. But they felt it would be worth it, just to hold their own tiny life in their arms.

The family had a get-together and Sandra announced she was four months pregnant. Having been blessed with two boys, they were keeping their fingers crossed for a girl. The joyful, soon-to-be-yet-again-grandparents made a celebration-tea and there were hugs and congratulations, from every one except for Nicole. Envy cruised through her veins, she could hardly look at her sister.

Later in bed, her and Seamus didn’t make love. Instead, Nicole turned her back on him and wept. In the morning she made an appointment for them both to attend the doctors.

On the way to the surgery, the couple were quiet but hopeful.

Following on from their joint consultation, they were given various dates for individual Doctor/patient chats and examinations. Nicole felt as if she was back in control and visited her sister with a wee present for the baby bump.

Seamus sat in the hospital cubicle, a porn magazine in one hand and a sample container in the other. After some serious hand shandy action, while wondering if all this was really worth it, he finally shot his load into the cup while thinking of his gorgeous Nicole. He just wanted her to be happy.

Then there was some toing and froing — tests and more samples taken — before the final evaluation was given.

Nicole had a slight abnormality to her womb. It was heart shaped. This meant it would take her a little longer to conceive, but with proper care there would not be a problem with her carrying a child. Seamus hugged her, thinking thank goodness we can move on…

That was until the next day, when during his lunch break he popped into the surgery and received his own results.

His sperm had not been awarded a distinction.

Nor a merit.

Not even a pass.

Seamus was firing blanks!

Will the Real Man Please Stand Up

The news hit him badly. He called Benny and later the pair of them went on a bender — for the whole weekend! Before returning to an irate Nicole with his results and throwing the tiny slip of paper, with huge ramifications, at her.

The couple sat in silence. Seamus, head in hands. Nicole with a stoic look on her face.

Later, Seamus explained the doctors felt it was probably mumps as a child that had caused him to be… infertile. He tried out the word and felt as if he had failed as a man and a husband. Tears streamed down his face. Nicole put her arms around him, but it was a half-hearted effort. All the trouble they had gone to over the last year to be awarded with the — do not pass go — card.

Life was shit. It was her who was supposed to have it all. She was the princess.

The following day Sandra — the baby machine — gave birth to a bonny baby girl. Just what her and Benny had prayed for.

Nicole and Seamus declined to be god parents and were conspicuously absent from the baby’s christening.

Jealousy can scar the hearts of all those it slices into.

Trying to move forward when the future you’d planned has been burned to ruins is not an easy task. But a Caribbean holiday can do wonders for morale and seemed a good choice as money was not something the childless couple needed to worry about.

They returned with a slight spring in their steps remembering the long days in the sun, and heady nights reminiscing about why they had got married so young.

Love still bound them — at least for now.

It doesn’t take long after a break to get back to the grind stone, and as winter loomed with long dark nights and wet days Nicole began to slip into a depression. Not knowing how to cope with his wife’s ever-changing moods, Seamus started spending more time at work and then in the pub before going home. Mostly he found his dinner in the bin.

One night, Benny had to bring Seamus back from the bar as he was too inebriated to walk the half mile journey.

As he practically carried her drunken husband up the stairs, Nicole caught herself looking at her brother-in-law differently. Seeing how strong he was. Knowing he had fathered her sister’s three children.

He was a real man, she thought.

When he came downstairs, she poured them both a nip of whiskey, and they sat together on the sofa. He sympathised with her about the fact they couldn’t have babies…

“It’s not as great as some people think,” he explained in an attempt to make her feel better. But Nicole began to sob thinking to herself it wasn’t her who couldn’t have children, Seamus was the problem.

Benny pulled her close and she snuggled into his neck, a slight smell of his cologne reached her nostrils. To Benny, she was more than a sister-in-law. Right from the start, he had lusted after her. He could not deny he had dreamed of this moment. But she was his best friend’s girl, who had never shown the slightest interest in him sexually.

Why would she? She had Seamus, with the sexy voice and cheeky grin. Not to mention, he was smart and funny too. But now, sitting here, Benny felt like the better man. With this on his mind he put his finger under Nicole’s chin, raising her head… and kissed her — hard, passionately, making her aware that even if Seamus was not man enough — he certainly was.

Then, pushing her back on the sofa he pulled her skirt up and knickers down, and as he fed from between her thighs he made sure she understood that he knew she was all woman…

Nicole’s actions were primal. She laid back, opening her legs wide, grinding her mound down to meet his mouth. And when he began to unbuckle and his length unfolded, she lifted her hips wanting… needing… him to fill her with his life-giving juice.

They rutted like anaimals, while Seamus slept off the booze upstairs.

For those brief moments, Benny happily forgot Nicole was his best friend’s girl and his wife’s sibling. While Nicole was only too pleased to take all she could from her sister’s husband.

Tomorrow is promised to no one…

Over the next few weeks, the lusty duo could not get enough of each other. All the while, Seamus drunk himself deeper into a pit and Sandra was knee-deep in nappies, still housed in the two up two down her and Benny had moved into when they first got together.

Three things happened that were inevitable.

• The clock kept ticking.
• Nicole found herself pregnant with her sister’s husband’s baby.
• Seamus walked in on the pair of them fucking in his, and Nicole’s, marital bed.

Seamus’s world came crashing down. Everything he had cherished seemed to have turned against him…

His wife, his best friend, his dignity.

Grabbing a bag, he took off. Nobody knew where. But after a week he came back to face the music.

Sandra had kicked Benny out of the family home and for a short while Seamus moved in with her, lending a helping hand. The pair consoled themselves with whisky and knowing they were the ones who had been wronged.

Soon, Seamus felt strong enough to go back to his own house. Finding Benny had taken root there, he promptly landed a swift blow to the other man’s left cheek. At least his ex-best-mate had the decency to grab his things and quietly leave without retaliation.

Meanwhile, Nicole pleaded with her husband to let her stay.

Seamus was just a man, not a monster, and so he agreed under the proviso that Nicole find herself somewhere else to live before her baby was born. He also assured her she would receive a share of the property’s profit to put down as a deposit on a new home.

Not just a man, a gentleman.

The days past and Seamus supported Sandra and the kids in so many ways except for sharing her bed. There was no need for revenge.

That would never heal the deep-set wound his heart was still suffering from.

Families have a way of coping and moving forward.

Life is strange.

Benny and Nicole moved in together and eventually Sandra forgave them and so Benny was allowed to be a father to all four of his children. Kids are resilient and as time passed saw the situation as an alternative extended family.

But what of Seamus. Well, as far as I know, he decided to never trust a woman with his heart again. Instead, he threw his mind, body and soul into a new business, moved to the countryside and breathed fresh, clean air, untainted by lies and cheats.

If you’re going through hell… keep going. (W Churchill).
