After a long and powerful lovemaking session, my girlfriend and I relaxed together in a hot bath, the strawberry-scented bubbles combining with the few flickering candles to further enhance the romantic atmosphere as Holly leaned back against my chest. I lovingly balanced her breasts in my hands, enjoying the feel of her hands caressing my thighs.
"I got a letter from one of my former college roommates today," she finally said quietly.
"Which one?" I asked, remembering that she had had a different roommate each year.
"From Kelly, from my senior year. She's moving to the area in about a month and wondered if she could stay with us for a weekend while she looks for a place to live."
"Certainly," I agreed. "We have more than enough room to host someone for a few days. Plus I can probably take a day or two off so we can help her find a new place or help her move if need be."
"That would be great." She sighed, placing her hands upon mine so that I squeezed her breasts gently. "It's been nearly four years since I last saw her. I miss her."
"I know," I said, sliding my arms around her. "I'll be sure to give you both plenty of space, okay?"
Holly laughed softly. "That's thoughtful, but that won't be necessary. I'm with you now, remember?"
"I know, and I'm definitely thankful for that every day," I replied, adding a gentle squeeze, "but I remember you saying how you two would occasionally be intimate, and I'm sure that will probably resurface while Kelly's here."
Holly sighed. "You're so damn understanding."

I returned home from work a bit late on a Thursday night, having stayed behind to "cover" for taking Friday off to drive my girlfriend and her former roommate as they looked for an apartment for Kelly. When I arrived, I was not particularly surprised to see the two young women on the sofa, Kelly's head in Holly's lap as they chatted quietly in the candlelit living room.
"Hey, hon," Holly said softly upon seeing me, her hand continuing to stroke her friend's hair. "Here's Kelly."
It was a beautiful scene. Like most warm-blooded males above the age of puberty, I quite enjoy watching two young females in an intimate situation – not necessarily naked and fingering each other silly, but even seeing two women simply holding hands gives me a special thrill. This situation was no different: Although they each wore a relatively unsexy outfit of t-shirt and shorts, they still presented a perfect picture of female-with-female sensuality to my eyes.
"Hello, Kelly." I moved toward the sofa, then knelt and kissed the back of her hand, which caused her to laugh softly. "Only one other person has ever done that," she admitted, "and my head is currently in her lap!"
We all laughed quietly at that before I withdrew from the living room, needing a shower after such a long day at the office.
When I stepped back into the bedroom, Holly was sitting on the edge of the bed, waiting for me with a smile. "You don't have to keep your distance this weekend," she informed me. "Yes, I'm hoping that something happens with Kelly again, but I don't want you to feel as if you're being neglected."
"I don't feel neglected at all," I replied honestly. "In fact, I somewhat hope that something does happen between you and Kelly this weekend. I know that's what you want, and, if you and Kelly will permit it, I'll admit that I certainly wouldn't mind watching."
"We'll see..."

Friday morning, Holly and Kelly were on the phones early, getting information on rent prices, building designs, neighborhood amenities, and the like. As they called, I cleaned the pool and did some weeding. When I finally came back inside, they were nearly ready, so I changed clothes and cleaned up a bit, and then we were on our way.
We visited five places that day: two large studio-style apartments and three one-bedroom apartments. Then we went out to dinner together at Holly's favorite steakhouse, and the discussion still focused primarily on the pros and cons of each location we had visited, with Kelly referring to her copious notes.
"There is one thing I believe you're both overlooking," I finally said during dessert.
"What's that?" Kelly asked.
"A one-bedroom apartment would be much cozier for any intimate encounters you two may have."
Holly blushed, her mouth agape at my openness. But Kelly smiled, her eyes twinkling at me. "You're more understanding than Holly intimated."
"Intriguing choice of words," I noted aloud, causing my girlfriend's blush to deepen, and Kelly simply laughed.

That night, I sat at the edge of the pool, my legs dangling in the water, watching the two beautiful blondes as they swam laps. I have always considered women (and girls) in bikinis as being very sure of themselves in virtually all aspects of life, and the fact that Kelly wore a bikini while Holly wore a swimsuit somehow seemed fitting given Holly's very careful, cautious approach to any intimacy with her former college roommate.
Kelly finally reached me and stood in the pool, wiping the wet hair away from her face as she looked up at me. "Why aren't you in here with us?"
"Because I'm enjoying the views," I admitted with a smile as Holly surfaced before me. "Besides, I've never really been good at swimming, and I certainly don't have any endurance."
Kelly shrugged and went underwater again, kicking off from the wall to swim another lap.
"I still can't believe you said that tonight!" Holly said. "Who's ever heard of choosing an apartment because it might be 'much cozier for any intimate encounters!?!'"
