Emma and Gail both came over to use the pool on Saturday, and after they'd been in the back yard for a little while, I went out to check on them. Both told me how happy their mom was to have been able to take the test, and that her boss had promised her a promotion by the end of the month.

As we were chatting, I make a point of letting both of them see me looking them over; after a bit, I casually commented "After I stayed with you the other night, and the way you came in to kiss me good night, I thought you'd be letting me look at you more."

Gail asked what I meant, and I told her "After you let me see you like that once, it isn't like you've got to hide yourselves, or anything. And I told you that I thought you were both lovely, so you don't have to worry that I won't like how you look, either. I guess you're not as grown up as I thought you were, after that."

Both of them looked at me for a few seconds before Emma asked "You… you really liked how we looked? You didn't think our boobs are too small, or anything?"

"Of course I liked how you looked — didn't I tell you that? And no, I don't think your boobs are too small. As a matter of fact, I think they're very nice — both of you."

Gail hesitantly told me "We weren't sure you really meant it when you said we were lovely; we thought maybe you were just saying that to make us feel good, or so we'd go away."

When she was done, Emma asked "It's really okay with you if we show you our boobs again?"

I answered them by saying "I think you know that I have never lied to you" — both nodded, because I hadn't — "so why would I say something like that if I didn't mean it? It's certainly okay with me if you want to show me your boobs, if that's what you want to do. I think both of you are very pretty, and your breasts are nice to look at. Even if you wanted to just go around topless over here, it would be okay with me. But it's up to you whether you think you're mature enough to do that or not, of course." With the tall privacy fence around the back yard, nobody was going to be able to see the relatively secluded corner where the pool was.
