"The Twins" - Part 1 of 4
by
I met Karen and Leanne at one of my photo exhibits during my first year
of college. I was showing some candid shots of people in odd
circumstances. Their beauty took me aback, and like everyone else, I
thought they were identical twins. The only people that knew different
were the administration clerks or people trained in identification.
I made no effort at all to acknowledge their beauty though they were
breath taking. Certainly not playboy models, or women one might see on
vogue but quite beautiful in a down to earth way. I was certain that
they were tired of being told; how beautiful, or how cute, or how much
they look-a-like, and didn't care to here any of that from me. I later
learned much to my astonishment that there were two years, two states,
and two sets of parents between them.
With their clothes on they looked exactly alike to the untrained eye,
even when clad only in shorts, they maintained their mirror-image
appearance. It wasn't until you could look inside their panties that
the differences became evident. I know what you are thinking one had a
penis well you are wrong.
To describe one is to describe the other, Karen was the older and the
alpha mate; they both had outgrown pigtails yet they both wore their
shoulder length blond hair in pigtails. Their eyebrows faint, thin and
un-plucked, still accented their deep blue eyes. Their thick red lips
matched their plump cheek's natural reddish hue.
Even in the dead-of-winter they wore short sleeve cut-off t-shirts
showing off their creamy skinned bellies with their wide and deep belly
buttons, not a hair or stubble to be seen. Their skirts were always
just above the knees, but a few times I caught one or the other bending
over exposing their smooth shaved legs. Their clothes were always the
same. I used to muse to myself that they would argue with each other
about whether or not they would wear a bra over their pert thirty-two
c. breasts and often wondered who wanted to do what and why. Did one of
them want to cover up their thumb-tip sized nipples, which grew larger
when they bristled?
They were both very athletic, yet they still had what I affectionately
call baby fat giving a soft roundish flavor to their appearance. They
spent a lot of time in the gym and their bodies made that quite clear
as their muscles had good form to them. They could out run in both
speed and distance most of the jocks, and they were instrumental for
the volleyball team's record breaking four year winning streak at the
state championships, and one victory at the nationals. The team went
three years in a row without a single loss, breaking the old record by
one and a half seasons.
I often fantasized slipping my opened hand between their thighs, well,
because they were so open and shapely, they were enticing with almost
enough room. They sported my favorite kind of bottom, I call it the
wide smiler. They had a twenty-eight waist over muscular thirty-six
buttocks that sagged upward, if you will indulge me, with a wide valley
between their cheeks. God I tried to steal a few pictures of them
walking together with their sweet bottoms swaying, but they
always-seemed ready for me. Like I had a neon sign brightly flashing,
"look out your butt's on candid lens." Stealing pictures of people being
remarkable whether in looks or action is my favorite hobby, more
accurately an addiction that has caused more than a little trouble.
However it was academia they excelled in; Leanne's major was English
lit. and Karen's was Computer Sci. They both have had several essays
on topics concerning their majors appear in many literature and
computer publications. They are also paid tutors, not by the school,
but by the students whom they help.
I always thought it was a little odd that I rarely ever saw them
together at school or at school functions other than the volleyball
games, the discussion group they attended, study hall, and going or
coming from gym class. I shared a networking class with Karen and a
journalism class with Leanne. I did mind my Ps and Qs in class. I never
once saw them being physically familiar.
My photo exposé on couples pushed us towards friendship, the kind of
friends you can tell anything to and just know it would go nowhere
else. I can tell this story now only because they told me to.
My part of the story began the last year of college right after my
exposé. After a series of near misses and bumping intos, I thought it
best at least to offer up the social civilities. Which soon gave way to
brief conversations about me my majors, or how my classes were going,
or just the plain, "how are you doing today?" They did not ask me that
question, the way so many people do when they mean, "Hi". They stopped
and waited for an answer. One week I saw them meandering through the
gallery looking at the photos of couples on display, over and over they
milled and as closing time neared all the photos had been looked at
numerous times and all the visitors we met were gone.
Karen walked up and asked, "Did you shoot all of the photos on display?"
I said, "Yes. The whole show is devoted to my work on couples being
couples. I will be on display here for ten more days." I struggled to
maintain some semblance of composure, though I am sure a drop of drool escaped
my lip as I talked.
"I see you've pretty much covered all the possible combinations of
couples, and you've not shown any favoritism." Karen pleasantly
observed.
"Favoritism is not journalism, and all couples have many things in
common. That is especially true of the ones trying to maintain a
long-term relationship. It doesn't matter if they are same sex, or same
race; co-ed or co-racial." I explained assuredly.
"Long term relationships?" she sounded pensive and added,
"Relationships seem to be dropping like flies today! What do you or
would you attribute that to?"
"In a nutshell; communication or the failure to do so, the inability to
accept the differences and embrace them or the lack of motivation to do
so." I answered with conviction and asked, "Do you have a favorite? I've
seen you here with your friend slowly milling around the show the
last couple of days."
"Yes, the one over there by the window, the one of the two women. The
one standing looks sad. Who are they and what are they doing?" Karen
asked empathy ringing in her voice.
"Oh I don't know who they are, and for me to tell you what they are
doing would steal the value of the image from you", I assured asking,
"What does it mean to you?"
"I think the older woman is sad because, she wants to tell the younger
one that she loves her and can't." She related with a small tear
gracing her left eye.
"I never saw that till now. You could be right, or she could be sad
looking because she has told the one of her love. See how her hand is
touching the hair, ear, and face at the same time. In addition, look,
her other hand is on her shoulder. It looks like one has just spoken
and the other heard. Here I've gone and broken a rule please forgive
me."
"Oh yes I see it. Maybe we are both right, I mean it is funny how
things, pictures, can change with the mood. Well any way your work is
exquisite. Aren't you afraid that they will sue you or something?"
"No not really, they aren't doing anything embarrassing and I really
didn't violate their right to privacy, there is a shrub in the
foreground and a setting sun in the background. Anyway, I would gladly
give them this framed copy, I can make another."
"Are you allowed to take more pictures while you are on display." She
giggled a little when she said you are.
"I can take pictures any time any where and of anything or any willing
body I want to!" I answered decisively.
"Would you be willing to take pictures of Leanne and I?" Karen asked in
a near impish tone, but with a perfect poker face.

I almost lost my poise and felt my male immaturity slipping, but
dropped my books and clipboard instead. As I stooped, I regained my
composure and I collected my thoughts, as I scooped the mess into a
pile and then calmly said, "I would be happy to. I do not have my
camera now, but I will be on campus tomorrow finishing a role and would
be delighted to take a few pictures of the two of you. Where do you
want to meet?"
"I don't think you understand." Karen stopped mid sentence and called
out, "Come here Leanne. We don't want a couple of pictures to send
home." Karen said, as Leanne joined her she added, "We want you to do
an exposé of our life, and prepare it for web publishing for the whole
world to see."
My professionalism overshadowed my boyish ideations and muted any
insecurity that I was being plagued with at the time and smartly
asserted, "I do not take my exposés lightly. There are a lot of
questions that need to be answered."
"We thought you might say something like that. What kinds of questions
do you need answered?" Karen shot right back at me.
"For openers the theme. What do you want to say and how do you want to
say it? Who do you want to say it to?" I sincerely snapped back.
"I see we won't be able to resolve this right here and now." Leanne
remarked with a hint of coyness in her voice.
I saw my opportunity and moved; "I think we can address these questions
best over dinner if you will forgive my abruptness. I know a perfect
place! My treat."
"No! Our treat." Karen insisted. "Where did you have in mind?" She
inquired with a hint of a smile.
"I have a pet spot; it is Mediterranean style cuisine if that is to
your liking, and if you can get past the name, "The Boot", the food is
great, and there are separate dining rooms available for privacy. It is
a little spendy but as I said it is very good, and exactly what we
need. My offer to treat is still good. I warmly reminded."
"We can pay you for work and quite honestly we want to pay." Karen
insisted.
"We have looked at all the work that you have displayed here on campus
and in town. Quite frankly we feel that you are the one to tell our
story!" Leanne chimed in and asked, "When can you start?"
"We have talked briefly on and off over the last year." Karen kicked
in.
"I think it best to start at dinner time. It is early enough today we
might get a reservation for tomorrow, Wednesday say eight. I have found
that when interviewing prospective clients if they prepare a list of
some of their wants and bring it with them, it facilitates the
discussions. Do you want me to make the reservation, or are you going
to?"
"We will. So till tomorrow then." Leanne said warmly smiling. She put
her arm under Karen's and they walked out.
I watched them walk out, what a sight and me without my camera. Not
once did they look back. I know that my mouth was gaping, in fact drool
did slip past my chin. I was stunned and awed if that is possible. I
had been invited to a photo shoot that I would never be able to top.
Over dinner, they told me that the first and foremost theme was love.
That I was going to do a series of shoots starting with a day in the
life on the out side. The three of us would spend the day gadding about
shopping, café hopping, and what ever came to mind. I was going to do a
series on them in school, following them from the dorm to class to
study hall and back.
Then they turned solemn. They, the two of them, looked at me and said
that I was to announce to the world that they were going to be married.
I was to expose every aspect of their life. I was to do another series
on them making love, a reenactment of Karen's proposal and Leanne's
acceptance and then the wedding ceremony.
I told them I was dazed and overwhelmed by the immensity of the task
and assured them I was more than willing and able. I told them that
they were talking about shooting two or three thousand pictures maybe
more. That quite likely the whole shoot for the day or night might be dropped. I
was assured that they had considered that likelihood.
I posed to them that the type of intimate pictures that they wanted me
to take would not happen easily, that it was best to rehearse them. I
begged them to forgive my frankness then asked how many times they made
love in front of the camera or more important having the camera man
telling them to hold that pose. The two of them blushed and said never.
I am sure that you want it to look real; that the two of you are at
ease with one another, have a spontaneously active relationship and if
you will forgive the inconsistency rehearsal is the best way.
I asked them how they expected to look like they loved each other when
their embraces might be tainted by my presence. They agreed to the
rehearsals; I said that it is best to work up to the more intimate
aspects slowly, and suggested that we finish the first two shoots, "A
Day in their Life", and "Their School Day", and review them over
dinner. We could talk about the next steps over dessert. It was at the
first rehearsal I learned of their difference, and how it was that they
discovered their love for each other.
The first two days worth of shoots went especially well. I used my
digital Nikons; changing between the thirty-five and seventy millimeter
lenses, for the more revealing close ups and some of the passing shots.
In two days, we shot close to two thousand pictures. As the first day
stretched on, they began to relax in front of the camera and stop
worrying about their pose. During the breaks I had an opportunity to
talk with each of them one on one and get some insight on their life. I
hesitate to say what caused them to adopt a gay life style, as I think
for as many stars in the sky that is how many answers there are to many questions
regarding motives.

____________________________
For instance both Leanne and Karen come from closed minded right winger
families; that were homophobic, and whose Dads were never home, either on
a long distance truck route or always away on some sporting junket.
Leanne's Mom was both supportive and understanding, promising to
keep from "Dad" her secret, the decision to be an avowed lesbian,
after being saved from rape at fourteen.
The boys thought it sporting fun dragging her into their locker room,
and got carried away while pulling her pants down. Fate was on her
side; the athletic director came and interrupted them, he actually had
to defend himself until the group scattered. Leanne had confessed her
attraction towards girls long before the episode at school. I am
ashamed to admit a certain tingle of arousal as she related her
temptations to, as she said, "touch the privates", of her friends that
attended her slumber parties but did not because she knew that trouble
would follow.
Karen on the other hand shared a similar family life but was always
trying to seduce any boy that would sit still long enough. She went
from one disappointment to another with each new fling. One day she was
attacked at school but managed to fend off her attacker, and swore off
relationships, even the one-night-stands. Therefore, until she met
Leanne, Karen was celibate, and completely self-reliant. Karen
confessed to being a lot like her dad, a very domineering person. She
actually started to cry briefly as she said that she had trouble
controlling it and at being eternally grateful that Leanne was and
wanted to be submissive. She told me that she had never wanted to have
sex with another woman, until she met Leanne. She was both ashamed and
intrigued by her feelings and very confused at first.
Leanne asked me to dinner at "The Boot" again, and asked if it were
possible to scan the two days of shoots while we ate, suggesting
that we take an early dinner. I assured that I could show them on a
DVD-player and that I would bring a portable player and monitor. I was
still trying to digest all these little bits of vitally important
information, just to have a vague idea of the dynamics of these two
people. After all that is all they really are, just two people.
Dinner was early, seven PM. I got there just after six to setup. The
girls were already there so we just started. The waiter popped the wine
and set it out to breathe. As I set up the video show, all of us
ordered before dinner drinks. I handed out note pads and remotes to
the girls, so they could stop or go back whenever they wanted, and
started the slide show program. I set it to run in sequence with a ten
second delay and show title mode. We made it through our drinks and the
salad and bread, to the main course, then to the dessert and on to the
sweet port. Slowly we coursed through our dinner. We laughed at many of
the shots and they grimaced at all of them jokingly. Ohing, ahing, and
saying that one is nice or that one was silly and how funny that one
was.
I was truly touched by how much they both acted like women, at times
impossible to tell them apart. We did not see the full show when Leanne
hit pause, and looked at me saying in a warm voice, "We are not afraid
of you or embarrassed by you. Are you afraid of us, or just shy?"
"No, not at all. I feel privileged that you have let me into so much of
your life. I just don't want to make you uncomfortable." I assured
sincerely, "I've come to know the two of you a little and like you
both!"
"We can't decide on what to keep and what to delete." Karen remarked
whimsically then asked, "May we keep this disc, and if it isn't too
much trouble could you put a couple of photo arrays together? We will
look at them in a few days."
"I burned that CD-RW for the two of you, so you can change the order
and delete the ones that you do not want, or just vote by pressing the
asterisk key for however many stars you want it to have. I have the
shots on my hard drive and backed up on another disc, so don't worry
about losing anything." I said confidently and assured, "I can go
through them and put together a couple of photo arrays for your
perusal."
Then Leanne sat next to me and put her hand right on my thigh, looked at
me smiling and said warmly, "I think it is time for our first rehearsal."
Then she giggled softly. I think she surprised herself.
My heart pounded in my throat as I struggled to speak; here I am trying
to put them at ease when I'm the one that is a little tense. I cleared
my throat then took a drink of my port and affirmed, "If you want we
could do a shoot, I have all my equipment in the car." It was the wine
keeping me from having a heart attack. In the back of my mind I knew we
were getting close to the "intimate" shoot, that is why I was packed
and ready; spontaneity is so important in the art world.
I was being put in charge of two of the best-kept secrets on campus and
soon I would be the one telling the story. It was then I knew Karen
was the oldest and the alpha mate, but Leanne put the drive into their
sex. Karen walked behind me and started massaging my shoulders while
Leanne just let her hand rest on my thigh and put her other hand on
mine.
I couldn't help but muse for a moment, here we have two people in a same
sex relationship, Karen the masculine influence, the decision maker, the
driver, the business person, she actually ordered for Leanne after
asking her what she wanted. Then we have Leanne the feminine influence,
submissive in every way, she was keeping the human warmth alive, quite
clearly, she kept their sex thriving, and when it was time for sex, she
knew how to make Karen think it was her idea.
We sat there for a few minutes when Karen whispered, "don't worry we
won't be too hard on you."
____________________________

Leanne asked Karen to settle up, I sensed a little urgency in her voice.
Karen rang for the waiter, and in a few minutes, we were on our way. We
arrived in separate cars and left in separate cars. I was about to
learn what went on behind "their" closed doors.
I remember thinking how the levity in Karen's assurance that they weren't
going to be "too hard" on me made me laugh a bit and relaxed me. I
remember the drive how I thought that at any second now a rock is going
to fall from the sky and crush me. My heart even started beating faster
from the fear, rather than the expectation of a night never to be
forgotten; I even found myself looking up into the sky. I followed
them, as I had no idea where we were going.
The speed limit was fifty but we were going between thirty-five and
forty. The slower speed helped me to relax and even start rehearsing in
my mind a possible train of events. The drive was no more than twenty
minutes, yet we were out of town. We pulled into the driveway of a
small house. I grabbed my two briefcases and pulled my light trees and
panels out of the trunk. I remember thinking how glad I was that I had
planned to record the dinner, as part of the exposé but didn't, so I was
ready.
They offered to help carry, so Karen toted the light trees and panels.
Leanne got the laptop and box of tripods and I had the two cases with
my four camcorders and two Nikons. I had to go back to the car for the box
of interfacing cables. It only took an hour to set up and network the
camcorders to the laptop. When we were ready, I remember starting to
shake and stutter a little. Then I just stopped and closed my eyes and
concentrated for a few seconds. I was able to become, "the cameraman",
it was the only way that this was going to come out good.
"Karen? Who initiated the physical relationship?" I asked frankly.
"Leanne was the first to touch me and kiss me." She recounted calmly,
and smiling pleasantly.
"How long have the two of you been in love Leanne?" I pressed.
"For me when I first saw Karen, my whole body turned warm. I knew then
that I was glad I was sharing the room and wanted much more." Leanne
warmly explained.
"For me too; but my upbringing caused me some trouble so I spent a
little time in denial. I think I may have even been rude a few times."
Karen joined in.
"You were but I knew where you were coming from, so it didn't bother
me." Leanne interjected and pried, "And you what about you, why haven't
we seen you with a girl friend or two? Are you gay?"
"I guess that is a reasonable question. I am not gay or bi, and I am
not closed-minded either. I have enjoyed sex with quite a few women. As
for not having a girlfriend now well my proclivity towards stealing
pictures of people in embarrassing situations, or perfectly candid
moments has cost me the last two relationships. I'm surprised that
someone hasn't said something to you. How long have the two of you been
sharing your love?" I asked trying to look at them both.
The two of them looked at each other then looked at me and said in
unison, "More than three years for the two of us. We will graduate this
June, our meeting for the first time anniversary is in September and
November eleventh or twelfth is the anniversary of the two of us having
sex for the first time and affirming our love for one another."
"Yes we slept in each others arms the whole night." Karen purred with a
blissfully reminiscent smile on her face.
Just then, Leanne giggled mischievously and whispered loud enough for
me to hear, "Can I tell him please?"
"Noowa!" Karen said insistently her face glowing a deep red.
Back and forth they went a few times, sending my curiosity over the top
till Karen relented, "Okay it isn't that bad I guess, any way we kind
of laugh about now anyway."
So Leanne struggled with her giggling to gain some composure and
between the slowing giggles began. "That night after we went to the
bathroom, settled in, and went to sleep, towards dawn the sky was
starting to get light, Karen turned over onto her other side and I
snuggled to her back. I reached around to hold her to me, and my hand
went right to her clitoris. It was a subconscious act, but when I
touched it again I wanted to hold it.
"I knew she was sleeping and thought that I would go right back to
sleep myself. Any way I contentedly started to massage it as I waited
to fall asleep. After only a few minutes I guess, it sprang to life,
and Karen started moaning as she slept. I am very mischievous by nature
so I found Karen's sleeping arousal intriguing and so I kept going,
careful not to wake her. Her legs started to kick in a twitchy way and
she clawed the air with her hands, she started to sweat and call out in
a garbled way then gasped. Karen's body went limp, except her clitoris,
it had become very hard. She let out a long sigh, and that is when it
happened, a torrential gusher of urine." They both burst into
uncontrollable laughter, with tears streaming from her eyes Leanne
continued between roaring laughs "My god! I thought; what pressure
and again she gushed and it flooded."
Then Karen burst in laughing with, "I guess I taught you a lesson."
The two of them sighing and laughing, obviously their stomachs hurt from
laughter. Then Leanne snickered, "I have never to this date seen or
heard anyone pee that hard. It flooded past my knees", sighing she
added, "Yea Karen just kept sleeping like nothing happened."

The three of us mused several minutes on that hilarious story sipping
wine and giggling to our selves. Then I started in with the questions
again asking, "And to the both of you. Do your parents know yet?"
"My mom has always known, but Dad still hasn't a clue. He would
explode!" Leanne answered then mockingly added, "No daughter of mine is
queer and then look at mom growling, this must be your fault."
"My parents know that Leanne is my friend, they just don't know what
kind of friend." Karen explained and added, "They are old fashioned and
not very open minded. I doubt that they would adjust to it very well to
be polite."
"Leanne. What did you do first?" I pried.
"I gave her a massage."
"Was Karen sitting or standing?" I pressed farther. I knew that soon
they would start reliving that time. Therefore, the more interest I
showed to details the better for stirring memories.
"She was sitting in front of the PC. She had been typing some sort of
program that was being difficult." Leanne said in a rueful tone as she
remembered how sore Karen's neck was.
"I remember I was just finishing", Karen paused, smiled and ran her
fingers through Leanne's hair, looked at her warmly then started again.
I closed my eyes and could see it as Leanne started recounting their
first time making love, and learning that they loved each other.
"It was late, and Karen was working on a computer project, the fifth in
a long series of programs for her "Artificial Intelligence" class. With
a sigh, she ran the initializing program right before midnight, and
worried that there was still a bug somewhere because the screen prompt
didn't come back on."
""Oh well", Karen sighed, "I aced the first four..." She groaned as she
straightened up in her chair, stretching, trying to work out the pain
that had built up in her neck over the past three hours sitting at the
computer."
"Boy, am I glad I had nagged mother into buying me a laptop computer. At
least the distractions from other students are minimized. She could
relax here she thought, pitying the poor suckers who had to sit in a
lab all night; listening to the air-conditioning ducts rattling, other
students talking, or the college PCs crashing in the middle of their
projects. As she sat there, pleased with herself."
