Chapter Three: Traveling
That evening, Carlita told me to sleep with Kim. I was looking forward to it, Kim is really nice and very sexy. It was like something out of an old man's fantasy, fucking a good-looking hot teen. I was dreading it, Kim wasn't Maria and she still looked like she was thirteen. As I got up to follow Kim, Maria held me back for a moment, "Remember, mi amor, Kim is one of the family now. You have to do the best you can for her. Anything less than your best wouldn't be right." That rocked me. Why did this wonderful woman pick a dumbass like me to marry? Every time I was about to mess something up, she put me right.
I used the same cheesy line with Kim as I had with Maria, "Your place or mine?" She picked hers. Didn't make no difference really, all of our concubine bedrooms were the same. At first we just sat on the bed, held hands and talked. Like Maria said, Kim deserved my best, and I could do better than jumping on her straight off. I was tempted though. She'd taken off her top once the kids were in bed, and I could see that her nipples were already standing out hard.
"Have you done this before?" I asked.
"I'm not a virgin," she explained. "In school Tony had picked me as one of his concubines, so we fucked. All the sponsor boys expected you to put out, so I did. It wasn't too bad. Hurt a little the first time, though it was often over too quickly."
"Makes sense. Teenage boys are 'wham-bam' a lot of the time."
She nodded agreement, "Yeah, Tony was. He was getting better, and he lasted longer if I blew him first. Do you want me to do that?" she asked with a smile.
I laughed. "I ain't a teenager no more. You need to save the blow-job to get me ready for seconds. Us older guys last longer the first time, but we need more help to get restarted." Changing the subject, I asked her, "What happened to Tony?" After I'd spoken I kicked myself; me and my big mouth. That might be a bad question to ask Kim. Quickly I added, "If it's not too painful."
"Not painful, just unlucky," she said with a shrug. "He went on a trip with his family to see the fall colors in New England. The Confederacy hit the hotel they were staying in and extracted him, so he never came back. All I got was a text from him to say sorry –- he'd taken some girl from the hotel instead of me. That left me stuck with no sponsor. That was a real bummer. The good sponsors had filled all their slots by then, so only the retards had any spaces left."
"What about new sponsors?" I asked, tying to move things away from her loss. "The ones who'd just turned fourteen?"
"I tried, but there was a lot of competition for the good ones. I was up against thirteen-year-olds offering their cherry on their fourteenth birthday. Some of the boys didn't want an older concubine, and those that did usually wanted an experienced mother, which I'm not. I don't know what I'd have done if Carlita hadn't had to replace her parents. Up to then she'd been looking for a boy, so I wasn't on her list."
I made it obvious that I was looking at her, "Yup, Carlita's right, you're certainly not a boy," I told her and moved in to kiss her. While we were fencing with each other's tongues I started feeling her small tits. Her nipples were diamond-hard; her tits may have been small, but her nipples were full-sized and standing up really stiff. My dick soon joined them as her hand made its slow way south.
I laid her back on the bed and quickly stripped off my T-shirt and shorts. I started kissing her again, working my way downwards from her mouth, along her neck and down to her small breasts. I used my tongue and teeth on her nips, gently biting them while flicking the very tips with my tongue. She seemed to like it from the noises she was making. One of my hands was playing with her free nipple while the other was gently moving around the outside of her pussy under her skirt. I could feel her beginning to juice up, but I kept things smooth and gentle down there at first. At least she had enough hair down there that I didn't have to worry about her looking thirteen. Below the waist she was a grown woman.
My mouth released her tit and headed down to her belly button, complete with piercing. I know a lot of teens have them, but I don't like them much. Maybe I'm too traditional. I didn't spend a lot of time there anyway, I had work to do lower down. Once I got there, she heaved her hips up to help me get rid of her skirt and I settled myself between her thighs. I smiled up at her and took a single lick with my tongue from her asshole to her clit.
She twitched, "Oh God! Yes. That feels good... More. Please."
I wasn't going to refuse a request like that. I dived in and got back to work. She quickly got even wetter and I could feel her hands on the back of my head, directing me to her sensitive spots. Her thighs closed around my head while I kept at things as best I could.
"Oh shiiit!" she screamed as she came. She must have been loud because I could hear her even with her thighs clamped over my ears.
Her legs relaxed and released me to move back up towards her small tetas. As I passed her belly button I gave it a quick kiss. I managed to remember that she was sixteen, not thirteen, and didn't blow a zoober. I didn't think she'd have wanted that.
As I moved up, her hand was moving down. I felt her fingers close around my pito as I started kissing her again.
She gave me a few strokes and gasped, "Do me, Carlos."
So I did. Her hand slid me slowly into her and I began to move. It was like there was two of me. One part of me was loving it. Here was this hot, eager, sexy teen, with her tight body and tighter pussy, thrusting her hips back up at me and urging me on as I fucked her. It was heaven. The other part of me was screaming. She's not Maria! I shouldn't be here! I shouldn't be doing this! But I was. She felt different, sounded different, moved different. It was hell.
The distraction meant I lasted longer than usual. I know she came twice, and maybe a third time, before I came myself. Afterward I slumped on her, quickly rolling off to lie beside her. I knew Maria didn't mind me lying on top of her; I wasn't sure about Kim. Another difference. I didn't know what to say, so I just said, "Thank you, Kim."
She put her arms around me, "Thank you, husband."
What! "Husband?" I asked her, puzzled.
Kim smiled at me, probably taking pity on me for being a dumb male. "We're all family, right?"
"Yeah, we're Carlita's family."
"OK, so we're all family together. I'm not your daughter. I'm not your sister. I'm certainly not your mother. So all that's left is that I'm one of your wives. I'm Mama Kim and you're Papa Carlos. Mama and Papa. Simple." She smiled at me, having made her point.
That floored me. My women do that to me a lot, so I'm used to it. When I thought about it, she was right. I wasn't in charge, but I was the man of the family. Husband it was. It did make it a little easier if I looked at things that way.
"So, my husband, are you ready for another round, or do you need me to get you ready first?"
"I could do with some help...."
She smiled at me and moved down to get me ready for round two. After licking me from base to tip she smiled up at me, "Mmmm, I taste nice."
The next morning Maria came out of Carlita's room as I emerged from Kim's.
Oh.... We looked at each other for about a week, maybe two, not saying anything. Then both of us went into the kitchen as if things were normal.
Maria knew what I'd been doing with Kim –- she'd been there when Carlita had told me. Now I knew what she'd been doing last night. In the kitchen I did my best to act the same as always over breakfast and so did Maria. I could tell she was acting and I knew that she could tell I was doing the same. Kim didn't notice as she didn't know us well enough yet. Lupe noticed, and both Carlita and Rosamaria picked up something too. Alvaro was far too interested in shoveling food into his face to see anything except the bowl in front of him.
After breakfast I suggested to Maria that we have another shower together. We didn't actually talk much; mostly, "Turn around," or, "Pass the shampoo." Ordinary stuff. I could feel she was tense as I washed her back, and I know I was the same when she did mine. We took it slowly and let ourselves relax. It was only as we were drying that I brought up the elephant in the room. "We can do this, can't we, mi querida?"
"Si," was all she said, but it was enough. I'd been with another woman and so had she. We'd both survived and we still had each other. Our family had grown and things had changed. We were going to adjust and, most important, we were going to stay together. We'd already had a lot of changes, and there were more coming –- some good, some not so good. We'd be able to deal with them together.
After we emerged from the bathroom, the kids went off to school and Carlita started setting up our new looks. Us concubines got more of a say in what happened to us than she did. Carlita was a Marine, so she didn't get much choice about what she would look like –- two meters tall with a lot of muscles. She let the four of us have more choices. She called us into her room one at a time, so we didn't get to see what the others were going to look like. She wanted to surprise us with how the others looked. I just asked her to roll me back to about twenty-five and have the obvious things fixed: eyes, teeth, balding and stuff. I didn't have the hair on my face removed, just the growth stopped. That left me the option to grow a beard or a mustache later if I wanted to and saved the hassle of shaving every day.
"What about your dick?" Carlita asked.
"Don't make it any smaller, please. As long as it fits where it's meant to go that'll be all right. Faster recovery, like a teenager, would be nice as well." She grinned and nodded at that one. That would definitely help when I was servicing her, Maria and Kim. Three of them might be too much of a load.
Suddenly a full-size hologram of me appeared in front of us. As I looked, it changed to show my new body. I was still recognizably me, but looking a lot better. Not quite a six-pack, but a lot less around my middle than now. I'd always liked Maria's cooking and it showed. We played with a few details and soon agreed on a new look. Carlita even added a centimeter to my pito; "For Maria," she said, grinning. For herself and Kim as well I suspected.
"Yeah, I can live with that," I said, grinning back at her. "I think Maria will like the new me as well." I was going to look like my younger identical twin brother, if that makes sense. Well, identical except for that extra centimeter. That was another change here; no more inches and yards, all centimeters and meters now. Something else to get used to.
"Any suggestions on what to do for Maria?" Carlita asked.
I thought for a second. "Don't change her face too much," I asked her. "The kids still need to recognize her after."
Carlita nodded, "They told us that in sponsor classes as well. Don't change mothers or fathers too much. It upsets the kids."
I carried on with my suggestions, "It would be good to have her looking a year or two younger than me, with everything put back the way it was before Lupe was born. Not too young though. I've seen the photos from her quinceañera, and that's too young for me." She was pretty then, but she'd only just stopped being a girl. I preferred the woman I married a few years later.
I was going to like having the Maria I married back again, and the Confederacy could keep her looking that way. Thinking about the way Maria had looked reminded me that Lupe hadn't had a quinceañera; she'd had a cuatroceañera instead. By then things had moved to age fourteen because of the Swarm. Rosamaria would have hers at fourteen as well, though it would probably just be her first CAP test with the meal, party and dancing after. No Mass before. Would they even have priests in our new colony?
"What about Kim and Lupe?" Carlita asked, interrupting my thoughts.
"Lupe can have what she wants," I told her quickly; I didn't need to think about that one. "I'd really like Kim to look more her real age. She's sixteen but she looks like she's thirteen. I feel a bit like a cradle-snatcher with her. Bigger breasts and a more womanly shape would help. Provided Kim is OK with that, of course." I knew that I wouldn't like one of the others pushing her ideas on me, so I didn't want to do that to Kim.
"Don't worry, Carlos. I'm sure Kim wants bigger boobs as well. She's always complaining hers are too small."
Maria went in to talk to Carlita once I'd finished. I didn't get to talk to her after because I was in one of the sleep-learners getting the background on Waller, our destination. They kept us concubines busy learning new stuff.
That afternoon Maria, Lupe and Kim had their turns in the tubes and got their new bodies. They gave me a personal fashion show after. Did naked count as a fashion? Don't ask me, I'm just a man. Maria had regained the hourglass figure she'd had when we married. Three kids had robbed her of that as her waist had thickened, but now she had it back again. Rolling her back to her early twenties made her look more like Lupe's older sister than her mother. The most noticeable difference was that Maria had kept some pussy-hair, neatly trimmed, while Lupe didn't have any. I did enjoy the show; three lovely pairs of tetas to look at. Kim's were larger, like Carlita had said they would be. Very nice too. She hadn't gone overboard with them, so they were bigger than before but smaller than either Maria or Lupe. They suited her well at their new size. She had a bit more of a waist too, though her belly piercing was still there. At least she looked her age now.
Lupe had gotten thinner. I thought she'd lost a bit too much; she still had her waist and hips but not quite enough shape for me. Call me old-fashioned. I didn't bother to keep up with what teens want. It changed too quickly anyway. This week it was obviously thin. Next week it would be something different.
I didn't get to try any of them that night. Carlita wanted me with her for our first time. I got a look from Maria, one of her 'do your best' looks. This time I didn't need her to tell me. Carlita was our sponsor, so we all owed her big-time. Of course I was gonna do my best to make her happy.
"Strip and sit on the bed," Carlita told me with a smile. She grabbed a bundle of clothes from the replicator and disappeared into her bathroom. From the little I could see of it before she shut the door it was huge, just like her bedroom was huge. I undressed and sat down like she told me.
She re-emerged looking like a schoolgirl: hair in a scrunchie, white blouse tied over her tetas, a short black and white plaid skirt with white knee socks. She grinned and did a slow turn for me. Half way around she giggled and flipped up her skirt for a quick ass shot. No panties for Carlita tonight. Very nice.
"I bet you thought about doing stuff with Lupe's girlfriends when we visited your apartment. Didn't you?" she asked me, grinning.
She had me there. Of course I did, who wouldn't. The way those girls dressed.... "Yeah, I thought about it. I only thought about it though."
"I know. You were much better behaved than some other girls' fathers. A few of them got a reputation for pawing any of us who visited." She smiled at me, "You were one of the safe ones."
Safe! So much for my macho lady-killer image. Mind you, back then I was still married. None of those girls, sexy though they were, was worth risking Maria for.
She knelt down in front of me, her hands on my knees holding them apart. She moved in, close to my hard-on. "You thought about this as well, didn't you, Carlos?" I could feel her breath on my pito.
"Unh huh."
I barely got the words out before she popped the tip into her mouth and began to suck. My head exploded as her tongue touched the end. Like before, when I was with Kim, there were these heaven and hell things going on. With Carlita they were both still there, but the heaven part was much much stronger.
I could feel her moving around as she sucked me. Looking down I saw she was taking off her blouse. Once she'd thrown the blouse on the floor she pulled back off my dick, much too soon for me.
She put a finger on my chest and pushed gently, "Lie back on the bed, Carlos."
When I was down, she climbed on top of me, pulled up her skirt and sat on my pito, letting it slide up inside her tight coochie. No bra, no panties. Her blouse was gone and she'd hiked her skirt up to her waist. She took after her mother so her tetas were bigger than either Lupe's or Maria's new ones. Very pretty, but I hardly noticed. The same thing was happening as when she'd been sucking me. This was much more intense than it had been with Kim or Maria. That meant I was able to come when she did. Her pussy muscles tightened, giving me a hard squeeze, and I lost it. I hadn't expected to shoot off that quickly, not until after I'd been through the med-tube for my upgrade.
Carlita lay beside me and softly stroked my limp dick. "Looks like I'll have to wait a bit..." she said, smiling.
"Maybe you should have waited until after I'd gone to medical for my enhancements. I'll get a quicker turnaround then, won't I?"
"I wanted our first time to be the original me and the original you," she explained. "After we've been to medical, you'll be a hunk and I'll be a Hulk," she giggled at her joke. "We'll have years to do things with our new bodies. We've only got this one time in our old ones."
"Yeah, it's gonna be weird with you at Marine size." I'd seen a few around the place, as well as back on Earth.
"I'm just going to have to get used to it. I've talked to some of the other Marines, the women especially. It's a bit strange at first, but they told me I'll adjust. It helps that all the others in your unit are the same size, women included, so you aren't alone. It keeps you from thinking you're a freak or anything."
Carlita wanted me on top for our second time, and then insisted on doggy-style for our third. Three times in one night! It had been a long time since I'd been able to do that. And I hadn't even been to medical yet. Carlos the stud! Carlos the tired stud too, I slept like a baby.
The next morning I woke up as Carlita got out of bed. She bent down and picked up her blouse and skirt off the floor. I hadn't noticed when she'd lost her skirt, somewhere between our first and second times I think. Seeing her picking them up reminded me of a question I'd wanted to ask her. "Carlita, back on Earth why did you dress like all the other girls? They were looking to attract a sponsor, so they showed a lot of skin. You didn't need to do that, but you were showing as much skin as they were."
"Remember I'm a teenager," she explained, "and we mostly like being one of the crowd. That also helped me to blend in with the others. I didn't want to look like an obvious potential sponsor who didn't need to try. There was always the chance that some Earth First idiot would try to take a pot shot. If I looked like all the other girls then I'd be less of a target."
"Didn't that get you hit on by some of the sponsor boys?" I asked.
"Some, but I didn't mind too much. In school the boys hit on the girls anyway, sponsor or not. A few of the grown-ups were a problem, they could be very persistent and not take 'no' for an answer. Us girls decided what we really wanted were clothes that were normal most of the time, but changed to see-through when a high scoring CAP card was nearby."
I laughed. "I'd probably have borrowed Miguel's card and hung around by the school gates."
Carlita laughed too, "You're just a dirty old man, Carlos."
Yeah, she had me there. "Guilty," I admitted.
Over breakfast I could tell that Maria wasn't completely happy, but she wasn't as bad as she'd been yesterday. This wasn't easy for either of us, but we were getting there. We showered together anyway; we enjoyed it so why not?
That morning me and Carlita went for our enhancements. Like on the first day I was out cold before the tube finished closing. It seemed like no time at all when the lid opened. The nurse showed me to a full-length mirror. Hey! I was looking good: Carlos the hunk. My sight was better too -- things looked sharper -- they'd obviously fixed that as well as the rest.
I'd expected Carlita to take longer and come out looking like the Hulk, but she was already out of her tube before me and looked the same as before.
"I've got my load of nanites and I'll grow into my new size gradually over the next two weeks," she explained. "I'll be up to my full size by the time we reach Waller."
When we got back, Alvaro was in school while Rosamaria was in a sleep-learner so the girls had me strip and do a show for them. Only fair, since they'd given me a show yesterday. As I did a three-sixty, Kim got in first with, "Mmmm, hot buns," which got a big laugh from everyone. After that Maria just had to drag me off to her bedroom to check out the extra centimeter Carlita had given me. Everything worked just fine!
We barely finished before Kim had lunch ready. After lunch Kim had her turn and then Carlita. She was last so she had me longest. I was glad of my extra-fast reload enhancement. I really needed it that first day and even then, when I was with Carlita, I'd eventually had to say, no mas. I needed a good night's sleep after all that. Luckily Maria had gotten enough at midday so we just slept; I really needed the rest.
The next morning I got a shock looking in the bathroom mirror; the new me was looking back. That woke me up quickly! The picture of my own face I had in my head was wrong. I had a good look to try to fix my new face in my mind. I didn't want to start every day with a shock like that. Too many of those and I might die of a heart attack.
This was our third day here, so we were scheduled to leave the moonbase and board the Cube Ship Mount Olympus. After breakfast we packed up the stuff we wanted to keep. Maria checked the kids' rooms to make sure they didn't leave anything important behind. There would have been tears for days if any favorite toys had gone missing. I hadn't unpacked my stuff, which made it easy for me. No school or training for anybody, so we all had an early lunch together to make sure we were ready on time. Carlita needed the extra time as the AI had her eating bigger portions to feed her growing new body. She finished them too, so she must have been hungry.
When the time came the AI had us lining up behind Carlita, like on the first day, and we followed her through a lot of corridors and transporters. There were other families ahead of us and behind us, so we obviously weren't the only ones boarding today. The AI didn't bother me with directions so the sat-nav was likely talking to Carlita. This was one time when I would have needed it; all the corridors looked the same. One of the transporters must have taken us from the moon to the ship, but the inside of the ship looked just like the inside of the moonbase so it was impossible to tell exactly where we made the jump. We followed Carlita down another corridor just like all the others and into our new apartment.
Inside it was the same as the one we'd left. That made it simpler to settle in 'cause everyone knew where to go and where everything was. Kim checked that her Vietnamese ingredients were in the replicator -- they were. Gotta give credit to the AIs, they're very efficient even if they don't have the human touch.
We were all just sitting around when the AI announced that the captain would be speaking. A man's voice, a real one not an AI, came on, "Welcome all of you aboard the Cube Ship Mount Olympus. I am Captain Hooper and we will be in transit to Waller for the next sixteen days. The rules on board ship are the same as they were in Tycho Base. You should all be used to the way things run by now. I will talk to you again shortly before we arrive at our destination. Thank you and have a pleasant voyage."
Well, that was short and simple. Obviously life on the ship would be the same as in the moon. I was getting used to the new way things were so at least I wouldn't have to deal with any new changes; the old changes were enough work. Sixteen more days of this. Yeah, I could handle that.
"Mama," Rosamaria said to Maria, "can I change the color of my room please. Sixteen days is over two weeks."
"I told you," Maria replied, "I'm not just 'Mama', I'm Mama Maria now. You've got more than one Mama so you need to say which Mama you mean. And that sort of thing is up to Mama Carlita now."
"Sorry, Mama Maria," Rosamaria looked repentant. "Mama Carlita, can I change the color?"
Carlita smiled, "What color do you want?"
"Pink please." Pink! Always pink. Never anything else but always pink. Beats me why girls liked it so much. Judging by the face Alvaro was making, he thought the same as me. Pink!
"AI, do that please."
"Yes Carlita." This AI sounded different to the one in the moon.
Rosamaria rushed off to her room and we all heard her excited squeal, "It's lovely. Thank you AI."
"You can all change the color of your rooms if you want to," Carlita told us. I wasn't going to bother, but I could see Maria was thinking about it. I probably wouldn't get to make the choice, just like back in Reno it was Maria who picked the colors.
We were all chatting when Carlita suddenly jumped up and walked quickly to the door. Just before she got there it slid open and Miguel came in. They hugged each other in the doorway. The rest of Miguel's family had to wait outside until they'd finished.
Everyone was looking as Pilar, Dee and Tomas followed Miguel into our apartment. Alvaro was looking for Tomas, but I saw him stop. Miguel had changed Dee so her tetas were even bigger than before. You could almost see Alvaro's brain working as it switched from, 'girls are silly,' to, 'maybe some girls ain't so silly,' when he saw her. My son was growing up. The look on his face vanished as soon as Tomas appeared behind Dee and he went to his friend. Girls were forgotten, for the moment, as soon he had another boy to talk to.
Pilar and Dee were in shifts -- still the rule if you were outside your apartment. Kim and Lupe dragged Dee off to change, and Maria took Pilar to her room for the same reason. I was sure they would be comparing their new bodies as well. Miguel had dialed his wife back to her mid-twenties. She looked about the same age as I did now, just a bit older than the new-look Maria. With Tomas and Alvaro talking together and Miguel catching up with his daughter, that just left me for Rosamaria to talk to.
"It's not fair, Papa," she complained. "Alvaro has Tomas but I don't have any of my friends from before."
"Didn't you make some new friends at the school in the moon?"
"Not really. Some of the other girls were nice, but we didn't stay there long enough to make real friends." She made one of her miserable faces, the 'you're my Papa so you fix it' face.
"Maybe some of them are on board the ship with us, mi hijita? That would give you time to get to know them better. And there will be lots of girls in school when we get to our new home."
"But that's so long to wait, Papa. I'll be really bored with only Alvaro and Tomas to play with. And they don't want to play with me anyway. They just want to play silly boys' games."
I had to sympathize with her. It wouldn't be that long before we arrived, but at her age sixteen days without a friend would seem a very long time. She wouldn't be the only girl who'd had to leave her friends behind, so she'd probably be able to meet a new friend on board. Everything else was like the moon so there were bound to be things set up for children to do on board. I decided to have to talk with the AI when I got a minute.
Maria and Pilar returned, saving me. Rosamaria went over to sit by Maria to see if she'd have more luck with her mother.
Once the girls emerged from their fashion show we spent the time mixing and talking with each other. It turned out that Miguel was in the next-door apartment. I suppose he or Carlita had talked to an AI to set that up. They paid a lot more attention to sponsors than to anything us concubines said.
Back on Earth I would have spent most time talking to Miguel while the women chatted among themselves. Here it was different; he was a sponsor and I wasn't, so he talked more with Carlita, the other sponsor. That meant I was with the women more than I would have been before, all us concubines together. At least they gave me some sympathy for having to wear a gray shift when I was out. Not a problem Miguel knew anything about of course.
I wasn't that interested in a lot of their conversation –- and I was sure they had things they wanted to talk about without a man listening in. Even though I was a concubine like them, I was still a man. I wandered over to join Tomas and Alvaro for a bit. They didn't mention Dee, but I could see Alvaro's eyes drifting over towards where the women were sitting a few times. Tomas was staring as well, but he seemed more interested in Kim than Dee. I suppose he'd had time to get used to Dee's new look while he hadn't seen Kim since she'd come out of the tube with her new tetas.
Things were winding down when Miguel and Carlita called Lupe and Dee over. I couldn't hear what they were saying, but Lupe was smiling. Dee didn't look so happy though. We soon found out why; Lupe was going back to Miguel's apartment for tonight and he was leaving Dee here as a temporary replacement. I knew Lupe wasn't a virgin and she'd only been with the other girls since we'd left Earth. This was her first chance to be with a man since then. We'd all agreed on Miguel for Lupe so it wasn't really a surprise, just a bit sooner than I'd expected. Lupe was very happy, and Maria was OK with it as well so I wasn't gonna complain. It was up to Carlita and her father anyway, but it did make it better that Lupe had a big smile on her face as she hung on Miguel's arm.
After Lupe, Miguel and the others had left, we sat down to eat with Dee. Neither Maria nor Kim had gotten time to cook, so it was all straight from the replicator. Tacos. Not bad, though Maria could do them better. The replicator ones had too much salt for me. I'd been trying to cut down the salt on doctor's advice, so I'd gotten used to having less.
Dee sat quietly. She talked when we spoke to her, but didn't start anything herself. She seemed more relaxed with Kim than with the rest of us, but it was obvious that she didn't like being traded for Lupe like a piece of meat. I felt sorry for her. She'd left her real family behind on Earth, and now her new family had traded her away, even if only for a few hours. Not a good place for her to be.
Dee stayed quiet for the rest of the evening. Normally when the kids went to bed Kim and Lupe lost their tops, but tonight Kim didn't. Either Lupe was the ringleader or else Dee was stopping her. Maybe Kim didn't want to embarrass Dee or she felt she'd look undersized? I didn't mind, I thought Miguel had grown Dee too far –- those things on her chest just didn't look real. Anyway, I knew I'd have plenty of chances to see Kim topless in the future.
Carlita interrupted my thoughts, "Maria, Kim, you're with me tonight. Dee, since you're replacing Lupe, you're with Carlos."
Dee's face froze. She wasn't happy, and was trying not to show it. I got a look from Maria as well; her 'do the right thing' look. I couldn't point-blank refuse what Carlita had ordered, but if Dee was replacing Lupe then I had some choices.
I led Dee to my room. "Do you want to use the bathroom first?" I asked. She did. While she was in there I talked to the AI, "Dee isn't family so am I allowed to have sex with her?"
"Carlita has indicated that she is replacing Lupe so she is temporarily considered as if she were a family member. The possibility of intercourse was implied in Carlita's order for her to be with you tonight." The AIs always talked like that. Maybe they had a list of big words they had to use every day, otherwise someone would pull the plug on them.
"OK, she's family and she's replacing Lupe," I argued. "Then I can treat Dee like I would treat Lupe?"
"That would be acceptable," the AI replied.
That was fine with me as well.
Dee came out of the bathroom naked. She still didn't look happy, so I gave her a friendly smile and hugged her. Those things Miguel had given her were definitely too big -- I had to stretch over them reach her. I could feel her pink nipples pressing on my chest, very nice but I couldn't hang around to enjoy the sensation. I gave her a fatherly kiss on the cheek and went into the bathroom myself.
When I came out she was lying under the sheet, tense and unhappy, with her blonde hair spread out on the pillow. She didn't look like she wanted what she thought I was going to do. I took off my T-shirt, leaving my shorts on, climbed into bed beside her and gave her another kiss on her cheek, just like I would have given Lupe. "Buenas noches Dee. AI, dim the lights please."
"You're not going to...?" Dee asked. She sounded surprised.
"Do you want me to?"
"Not really, but I thought you would. Carlita said..."
"She said you were replacing my daughter," I reminded her. "So I'm treating you the way I would treat Lupe. Tonight you count as family, so we're allowed to say 'no' to each other. I hope you don't mind?"
"No, no, that's all right," she said quickly. She smiled, returned a daughterly kiss on my cheek and rolled over, turning her back to me. I turned to face the other way and went to sleep feeling virtuous. Padre Francisco would have approved. I approved too. Dee obviously didn't want to fuck tonight, so if I made her to do it, then what sort of man would that make me? Better to be Saint Carlos for one night.
Dee snored. OK, it was rude of me to mention it, but she did. She wasn't very loud, but it was enough to wake me up. I'd gone to sleep earlier than usual and I wasn't as tired 'cause I hadn't got as much 'exercise' as I would have gotten with one of the others. As I lay there I got to thinking about Rosamaria and her missing her friends. I picked up my collar off its shelf and slid quietly out of bed. In the bathroom I talked to the AI.
"Did any girls on this ship share classes with Rosamaria on the moon?"
"Yes," the AI replied. We were both talking quietly so as not to wake Dee.
"Did she get along well with any of them?"
"She appeared to be most friendly with Shelley-Ann Harris."
"Can you set things up to put Rosamaria and Shelley-Ann on the same timetable so they can meet in school more often?"
"That would be possible to arrange, though you are not empowered to issue such an order. That would require instructions from both Carlita and Marine Recruit Winston Harris."
That didn't surprise me. I'd already learned how little real power us concubines had. Like Dee, sleeping next door, we all had to do what we were told. We didn't get to tell anyone else what to do, not even the AIs.
"I'll mention it to Carlita in the morning."
"That is allowable."
Back in bed I managed to drift off again. I woke spooned against a smooth female body, with my morning hard-on in a plush ass-crack and my hand on a big hooter. Dee. Definitely Dee. I gently removed my hand and slowly pulled back my hips. No point in spoiling things now. I'd lasted the night and I could last the morning. I wouldn't be doing without for long, not with Carlita, Maria and Kim around.
