As the evening came to an end the guests headed to their sleeping quarters. Steven and Tom quickly took one look around before heading to their bedroom. Feeling the effects from being apart for several days, Steven wanted to ravish Tom's body. What is that saying – "absence makes the heart grow fonder". Tom was wanting to continue where the video call ended from the other night when he was in the city, desiring to celebrate the new year a little differently than what Steven had in mind.
Having inspected the sleeping quarters and bathroom, Tom looked for a place to stow his `wardrobe' for the night. Waiting for the perfect time when he wouldn't be discovered or questioned. When Steven was busy setting up the fireworks earlier, Tom made a side trek to his truck, sneaking his duffle bag without being noticed, it fit perfectly under the bathroom counter where it would go unnoticed.
Steven was the first to strip naked, his cock pointing to the ceiling. Pulling the covers down, Steven got comfortable as he lay stretched across the rustic bed. Tom wanting to surprise Steven went into the bathroom to quietly change. Stripping out of his clothes, he stepped into the fireman's pants commando; pulling the suspenders over his shoulders; Tom had to look at himself in the mirror, his furry pecs accentuated by the red suspenders; and pulling the coat from the closet. Tom put his arms in the sleeve before pulling up to his shoulders, not buttoning the jacket, he was ready for Steven.
Popping his head out of the bathroom door he saw Steven on the bed with an obvious "point" of excitement. Sighing as he looked at the beautiful site, he commanded Steven to close his eyes. Giggling, Steven assured Tom his eyes were closed. Stepping into the master bedroom Tom approached the bed, crawling on top of Steven.
Tom held his hand over Steven's eyes when Steven tried to figure out what was going on. Feeling the course material of the pants and jacket against him, Steven wanted to see what was happening to him. Struggling just a little Tom pinned him down before removing his hand from Steven's face. When Steven looked up, Tom wore a big devious smile. Reaching up Steven pulled the lapel of the jacket to bring Tom closer to him. Their lips met while Steven dueled with his tongue to enter inside Tom's parted lips. Tasting his man for the first time in days. Feeling Tom against him, Steven wrapped his legs around the fireman to pull Tom into him against his body.
Placing his hands behind Tom's head Steven pulled Tom closer to him, trying to melt into him, giving himself entirely to the fireman cladded man. As Tom's coat opened, the warmth of his body enveloped Steven. Small sparks ignited as Tom's chest came in contact with his lovers, adding fuel to Steven's desires. The urgency to respond to the challenge of the duel, tasting Steven fully on his lips, Tom's passion sprung to life. Feeling the warm naked body of his partner, Tom held onto to Steven's head as he explored his jaw and neck. Listening to the lustful panting which was making Tom desire this naked man under him: nibbling on Steven's ear, generating a squeal in response; as Steven thrust upward against him, eyes pleading for an unending continuation.
Gasping as he felt the warm tongue excite his body Steven arched under Tom, who was straddling his nakedness. Clinging to the heat that Tom's body exuded Steven's passion reached a fever pitch. Tom kissed him passionately in response to any moan Steven made.
Rolling Tom onto his back, Steven opened the front of Tom's jacket. Exposing a view of that furry chest he was going to ravish. Steven ran his fingers through the chestnut hairy pecs as he ground his ass against the front of Tom's pants while sitting up on Tom's lap insuring Tom understood how hungry he was.
Working the nipples gently at first, Steven excited Tom even more. Feeling the lump in Tom's pants being pushed against his grinding ass caused Steven to sigh even louder. Hearing the whimper, Tom placed a hand on Steven's mouth to quiet him as he set a finger to his lips. Steven was on fire, Tom was the only person who could put that fire out, and no "shhhshh" was going to ebb the desire. Feeling Tom touch his nipples, Steven closed his eyes. Tilting his head backward while pushing his chest forward, Tom's touch excited his body. Pulses of pleasure raged through him to cause his throbbing cock to leak. Steven's hands roamed all over Tom's chest, lightly pulling the hair that was between his fingers. Leaning forward he moved closer to taste Tom's lush lips.
Moving his lips to Tom's chin, he licked along the jaw, tracing his tongue down the side of Tom's neck before sucking lightly at the base. Tickling with his tongue, following the contour along the neckline, he worked between the cleft of his chest. Touching Tom's right nipple with his fingertips as he darted his tongue over Tom's left nipple.
Nursing the nipple, Steven pumped against Tom's pants before alternating to the other nipple. Raising Tom's hands over his head Steven tasted the saltiness of the pit. Making passionate love as he lapped around the exposed hairy pit, he teased the nipples as he moved to the other side. With Tom's hand still over his head, Steven buried his face in the other pit to inhale the scent as his tongue darted over the exposed flesh.
Tom softly moaned as his head turned from side to side as he felt Steven's talented Tongue bath his pits. Giggling, Steven `shhsshed' Tom who felt himself straining in his pants as Steven rubbed against him while attending to the armpit. Steven returned to the nipple, lightly teasing the erect nub with the tip of his tongue. Continuing south, Steven ran his tongue down the pleasure trail that led from Tom's chest to his navel. Reaching for the buttons on his pants, Steven released the suspenders as he opened Tom's pants. Pulling down the zipper, Steven urgently opened the flaps of the fire pants. Steven sighed when spotting the base of the cock that was tucked inside the fireman's pants, snaking down his right leg. Placing the tip of the tongue at the base of Tom's cock he ran it up to the navel, leaving a wet trail of where his tongue had tasted Tom's skin. He crawled back up Tom's body to target the pits again, before kissing Tom passionately.
Tom felt Steven's wet mouth against his furry lips. Parting his mouth, the exploration of inside awaited Steven. With Steven laying there on top, Tom put his arms around his husband to gliding his fingertips down the small of Steven's exposed back. Touching Steven's naked body excited him, he could feel the wetness accumulate on the legs as his hand explored the backside. Feeling the crevice of Steven's ass the finger traced between the cheeks to search for its goal - the warm moist hole. Feeling it against his fingertip, Tom created a circular motion to tease the hole slowly as he watched Steven raise his head back. Pressing into Steven, Tom felt the hole relax, allowing him to insert more of his finger slowly. Steven lowered his head to attach his lips to Tom's flesh as he pawed at Tom's shoulders and chest. Tom's movements encouraged knowing this is what Steven wanted.
As they continued to celebrate New Year's, the fireworks of passion continued between the two. Tom placed his fingertip to his lips, moistening before targeting what lay between Steven's cheeks. Adding a little pressure, Tom inserted the finger a little further. Feeling Steven's moist warmth engulf his exploring fingertip; hearing Steven's breathing; Tom pushed in deeper, as the low moan escape Steven's lips.
Removing his finger from Steven's ass, Tom adjusted himself to free his throbbing cock from the pant leg. With his rigid cock pointing to discover the feeling, Tom wiped the slickness from the tip before returning to probe Steven once again. Their tongue battling recommenced as they explored each other's mouths with a passion that was renewed.
Feeling the finger on his hole Steven pushed back, wanting Tom to work more into him. As he loosened, he backed his ass against Tom's freed cock. Feeling the slimy cockhead against his taint and Tom continued fingering of his ass Steven's senses heightened. Steven's need and desire caused his cock to leak as he teased Tom's cock with the crevice of his ass. Steven sat up to look Tom in the eyes. Touching the beard Steven ran his fingers through the longish whiskers. There was a smoldering desire to see his cock between those parted lips. While still kneeling over Tom's reclined body, shimmying on his knees Steven grasped the back of Tom's head to direct his cock between the red lips. Sighing at the feeling of the warmth of Tom's mouth the lips engulfed his aching cockhead. Wanting to explore more of Tom's wonderfully talented mouth, Steven pumped gently between those bearded lips causing his balls to rest on that bearded chin which sent shivers up his spine.
Tom felt Steven's ass as he held on feeling the pumping action of the swollen cock into his hungry mouth. Feeling the sponginess on his lips, he licked around the crown before allowing Steven to fuck his face. Steven's dripping cock tasted great, sending excitement down to Tom Junior, who throbbed as Steven kept Tom's mouth busy. Feeling the harden steel slide in and out of his mouth, Tom reached for his oozing cock, stroking slowly as the glistening cock pumped in between his lips. Looking up Tom gazed at Steven's smile as he pumped in a little further with each thrust. Tom relaxed his throat, allowing Steven to invade while enjoying the show from below.
Feeling hands on the back of his head, Tom consumed as much of Steven as possible. The drool was running out the side of his mouth as the shaft continued to invade. Tom found himself reflexively taking breaths between the pumps as the shimmering cock slipped back from his lips. Feeling the cockhead in his mouth Tom relaxed to allow for it to slide further down his throat. Speeding up his naturally lubed hand over his throbbing cock.
Taking his cock out of Tom's mouth, Steven slapped it against Tom's cheeks. Lowering himself down to kiss Tom's mouth, Steven slid his ass back until he felt contact with the burning pole. He reached behind to push Tom's hand away as his hand ran down the slimy shaft, knowing he would be ready to ride that pole to oblivion.
Steven tasted himself on Tom's lips. The excitement coursed through his body; his sense turned to overdrive; delving his tongue to the back of Tom's throat; he teased Tom's oozing cock with his ass. Steven looked down at Tom; thinking how hot the fireman was; the fireman's coat opened; and his cock swinging from the confines of his pants. He was going to get a ride on "Mr. May".
Tom wanted Steven on his back. With his muscular strength he turned the tables, placing Steven on the bed as he got on top. Looking down, he covered both of their bodies with the coat, as the heat turned up.
Tom was over Steven the coat fell over their heads as he whispered how he wanted to fuck Steven in a sling.
Steven was confused and didn't know what Tom was talking about. Tom continued how he wanted to hang the sling in the basement and fuck Steven's ass. Steven had no clue what he was talking about. He wanted Tom to shut up and not ruin the mood. Steven tuned Tom off, not listening to a word of what Tom was whispering, catching bits and pieces. Soon Tom was inching up Steven's body, placing his cock to Steven's lips. This is more of what Steven wanted, opening his mouth to prepare the massive shaft for drilling his hungry ass. Steven quaked at the thought that the cock in his mouth was going up his ass. His fire inside burned brighter.
Removing his cock from Steven's mouth, Tom slapped his face before replacing his cock with his balls. Lowering his nuts into Steven's warm mouth, as he slowly stroked over Steven's face. "That's awesome babe, gently suck on my balls. That feels so good babe."
Tom stopped when he heard a knock on the other side of the wall. Removing his smooth balls from the confines of Steven's warm mouth he offered his cock for Steven to suck. Feeling the warm mouth engulf the cock Tom held onto the headboard as Steven bobbed back-and-forth on his impressive snake. Turning around in a 69 position, Tom offered his cock to Steven's salivating mouth, as he pulled Steven into a position to finger his ass. Spitting on the hole Tom worked his finger into the first knuckle hearing Steven choke occasionally on his cock. Tom would pull back, so he didn't go deep into Steven's mouth, as he worked his finger further into the burning hole.
Feeling Steven's ass suck on his finger, Tom pulled out to place two fingers in his mouth before inserting. Tom felt Steven stop for a second. Tom continued the pressure as he felt Steven open around both digits. Tom poked the ass as Steven continued sucking. Tom felt the drool run down his shaft, giving it enough lube to replace his fingers with his slippery cock. Seeing the tip of Steven's cock glisten, Tom placed his mouth over the shiny cockhead. He swirled the mixture of precum and spit, while poking the two fingers with ease into Steven's warm ass.
Knowing Steven was almost ready Tom removed his fingers, pulling Steven up. Tom's lips met Steven's entrance. Tom applied suction to lube Steven's hole generously. Tom felt the incredible suction of Steven's mouth on his throbbing cock. With a face full of spit as he held the cheeks apart working his tongue around the hole, Tom thought it was ready to give Steven what he wanted.
Turning back around, he lifted Steven's ass to meet his cock, while holding Steven's legs, Tom pushed his bulbous head against the loosened hole. Feeling Steven starting to accept his throbbing cock, Tom kept pushing as the tight moist warmth surrounded his flagpole. Pulling Steven back down the bed, Tom kept the pressure up, feeling Steven opening around him. Steven's head turned from side to side as Tom continued to impale him slowly. Tom kept sliding in slowly, taking it to the hilt, before the spelunking would begin.
Steven felt the heat between them, as the fireman's coat enveloped them both. Grasping at the sheets Steven pulled, his fingers wrapped the soft fabric as he felt the fullness inside. He welcomed the fullness. He needed Tom to scratch that itch inside of him. With Tom holding onto his legs Steven felt the first pump; as Tom started to pull out of his ass; before halting a second to reverse course. Moaning loudly as he felt the cock slide back in deep, Tom quickly placed a hand over Steven's mouth, as another few knocks could be heard on the adjacent wall.
Tom slow fucked Steven, feeling him loosen up around his cock. Steven's hungry ass naturally lubed the much-desired shaft after the first penetration. Steven's head turned from side to side each time Tom pushed back in. His pubes resting against Steven's hole; holding a second before withdrawing; only to repeat it again. Tom thought the ass felt incredible around his cock, this was the way to spend the new year. Tom long fucked Steven, with Steven shaking each time he hit the spot.
Steven held on to the bed when Tom started to speed up. With his eyes rolling in his head, Steven knew this would be one awesome ride. Reaching up, he held Tom's nipples between his forefinger and thumbs. Caressing the nubs as he felt the cock sliding in-and-out of him.
Tom whispered harder, as he pumped deeply into Steven's delectable ass. Steven obliged by tightening his finger on the nubs and gently squeezed. Feeling the pressure, Tom pumped faster; thrusting deeper; as he fucked Steven's ass. Wanting to get in deeper Tom suddenly pulled out, leaving Steven disappointed. Tom rolled Steven over, "Put your ass in the air." Steven backed up his ass to align with Tom's cock as Tom plunged back into him, groaning. Tom bucked into Steven's ass, the squishing noise could be heard as Steven's ass lubed Tom's probing cock. Tom let out a few loud moans when the knock was heard again. This time the knocking caused Steven to giggle knowing they were being listened to. Burying his face in the pillow, Steven wanted to silence any noise from his mouth, as Tom's body slapped against his.
Tom was sweating from the heat, his body was dripping while he was in that coat. Holding onto Steven's hips, Tom continued his assault from behind. His cock feeling magnificent with each plunge to the hilt. Wanting to catch his breath, Tom slumped onto Steven's arched back. Holding Steven as his breathing slowed down. Pulling his arms from the coat, Tom threw it on the floor, the air feeling good on his overheated body. Holding on Steven's hips once again, he thrust deeply into the upturned ass trying to hold back any noises.
Reaching under Steven, Tom jerked on this slimy cock as he fucked even harder. Hearing Steven's breathing through the pillow he knew Steven was getting close. With his body shuddering, missing a few thrusts, Tom felt the feeling welling up inside of him. He was pouring sweat from his body, the drips following his ass crack, flowing towards his hole. With his breathing labor, Tom was trying to hold back the prolonged breeding of his overheated partner. When the droplet ran over his asshole, Tom couldn't hold back any longer, biting his tongue to keep from howling into the night, his nostrils flared as they breathed heavily. Giving Steven's ass a blast of nut after nut deep inside that awesome manhole.
When Steven felt the cock expand inside him, knowing he was getting blasted full of Tom, Steven's cock convulsed. Spraying the sheets below him with his batter, as Tom was filling his ass to the brim. Once the blast died down, Tom collapsed on top of Steven with his cock lodged way up inside.
In the morning, the two were awaken by the smell of cooking pork. Listening to the pots clanging downstairs, they both realized they weren't home. Tom was taking a little longer to get his bearings. Still wearing the fire pants, Tom looked over to Steven who was looking at him with a BIG smile. Leaning over Tom kissed Steven whispering, "Happy New Year. I love you." Steven shimmied up against his husband, his fingers twirling the hair on Tom's chest as he smiled, "Happy New Year. I love you too."
Hearing the cabin come to life, they knew they both had to get up. Steven got dressed, as Tom changed into something more presentable. Following the source of the aroma of the food, they headed downstairs to be greeted by Eva, who was making the traditional New Year's day dinner as she called it (otherwise known as lunch).
As the couples started appearing, Eva was happy to greet each one with "Happy New Year" as she poured them a cup of coffee.
Vince and Ken both came in from outside saying "It's chilly, but the lake isn't frozen over." They all gathered around the kitchen sipping their coffee with Vince looking at his phone commenting about the videos of the polar bears. Melinda wanting to see the cute, cuddly animals, was surprised to see grown people in their bathing suits jumping into ice water.
Handing the phone back, Melinda said, "Are you planning to do that?" Knowing that was Vince's intention. He was using the video to coax the other guys to bare it all and jump into the lake.
Vince smiled, "You know it, baby."
"Let me get dressed so I can film it." Melinda laughed.
"Oh, we can't post this one," Vince hinted.
"Tonya can you come here and help grandma?" asked Eva, knowing the shenanigans the boys were up to. "Boys will be boys, no matter the age, let them get it out of their system."
As they gathered around, Vince reached for the hem of his shirt, pulling it over his head. His washboard abs were prominently on displayed as he pulled his massive arms out of the sleeves before pulling the tee-shirt over his head. Standing there in sweatpants and shoes waiting for others to follow. His impressive body got all the guys attention as they looked at his muscular torso. Memories of their comic books flashed as the real-life superhero stood in front of them shirtless. Liking to compete, Ken followed suit by removing his shirt to show off a well-defined chest. Looking at his brother Tom, "Are you going to participate shorty?"
Tom flashed his sarcastic smile, reaching for his hem before pulling the sweatshirt over his head. The three shirtless men placed their arms around each other allowing Melinda to capture the three amigos before they totally stripped down to au naturel.
With the guys' attention Vince asked, "Who's joining us for a New Year's Day swim?" He continued to explain their plan, "Using the right dock to enter the water, either by jumping in or using the ladder; once the person has cleared the area, the next one can enter the water; swim to the left side of the dock; climb out of the water; when everyone is out of the water, we head back inside to this warm fireplace. Come on who is going to join in."
"Tonya honey, you're going to stay right here with grandma." Eva insisted.
Next Fred and Wayne said, "We're in," removing their shirts, standing shirtless with the three as Melinda continued documenting the event. Realizing they were taking this seriously the remaining men removed their shirts. The testosterone was filling the room, Vince motivated the group by clapping his hands along with the high-fives and "Oh, Yeah," revving up for their quick New Year's Day dip.
Once everyone was shirtless, they all posed with their arms around each other. Melinda giggling at the show of masculinity. April stood behind Melinda snapping pictures, as Melinda continued with the video. With the adrenaline rush, Vince clapped his hands, saying "Are you ready?" With a resounding `Yes," Vince continued his motivations with, "Let's get the party rolling." Vince was the first stepping out of his shoes; he placed his thumbs into the waistband to lower his sweatpants; past his knees he leaned down to remove them completely. Standing in just boxers he quickly pulled them down to step out of them as he motivated the guys. Totally naked and not showing any signs of embarrassment he called out to the group, "Let's shuck the clothes and get totally naked." All the mouths dropped as they saw a well-hung bodybuilder standing naked egging the rest to join him.
Being a natural competitor, Ken was the next to join his brother-in-law. Stepping out of his boots, he pulled down his sweatpants to the ground; stepped out of them; and kicked them to the side. Ken stood there proudly, knowing he was the envy of all the guys, as he stood next to Vince. Vince may have had the body, but Ken had the goods and was proud of what he had between his legs. With an awkward silence, the guys looked down at the snake between his legs. Ken ribbing Tom, "Come on shorty. Drop the pants. Let's show them why we call you shorty."
Tom was the next in kicking off his sneakers; he dropped his bottoms; putting his hand behind his back, he stood next to his brother. Though Tom was large, his brother was `OMG'. Smiling as he put his arm around his brother, the two stood naked arm-in-arm. Vince not wanting to be left out, stood behind the two brothers. With April clicking away, Melinda was giggling as she filmed her husband and two brothers.
Vince egged on more of the guys to remove their footwear and completely undressed as Melinda captured their moods. The guys were intrigued as they fantasized with what they could do with Ken's endowment. Their mouths hung open as they started to salivate. Steven the last to undress was giggling understanding why Ken called Tom shortly. Steven knew he got the runt of the litter when he saw the lethal weapon hanging between Ken's legs. Though Vince had a nice size, his girth looked scary. Feeling a light touch on his shoulder, April, Ken's wife whispered inappropriately to Steven about getting the better end of the stick. She looked at Tom then back at Steven smiling sympathetically as she made an inference in the difference in size. With Steven's undivided attention she looked at her husband, smiling back at Steven. April could not help but chide Steven by licking her lips and whispered lowly, "I win." As she brushed against Steven's back to stand next to her husband, smiling proudly.
"Hey Mom, would you do the honors," as Vince called out to her.
With Eva looking up, "Will you boys ever grow up?" She glanced over the group of naked men.
Eva called out, giggling trying not to look up, "On the Mark, Get set, Go!"
As Vince opened the door the cold air came rushing in as he dashed across the patio down the stairs heading toward the dock. The other men followed suit, heading in the same direction as Vince; all wearing only a smile in the brisk January air. The men felt the cold dock under their feet, as things started to shrink. The cool breeze bit into their naked bodies, all braving the temperatures to get the New Year's Day swim over with. As they held their hands over their arms, they stood close to each other trying to shield themselves from the elements. Melinda waddled behind holding her phone up, "Wait for me, you got to wait for me," as she ran up the other dock. The ten men stood naked, shivering as she finally made her way to the end of the other pier.
Vince waved to the four fishermen on the nearby dock. The four chuckling as they watched the grown men getting ready to jump into the water. They reeled in their lines, setting the poles down on the dock as they turned to watch. One of the fishermen called out, "That water is cold."
Coming up from behind was April. "Wait for me. Wait for me,! Ladies first," as the guys watched her tits bounce in the air as she ran past them, jumping into the water.
The Fishermen commented, "That's what we like to see."
When she surfaced, she screamed and laughed; waving to everyone including the fisherman flashing everyone her tits, before swimming over to the other dock. As she climbed out one of the guys chided, "Look! It's so cold, hers retracted up inside." Everyone burst into laughter as she ran back to the house yelling, "See you inside, where its warm." As they stood there freezing, they watched April's ass jiggle as she made her way back to the house.
They formed a line as Melinda filmed, Vince was the first to cannonball into the water. A splash was heard with a few seconds of silence. When he came to the surface he gasped. Looking up he saw the naked men peering down. Doing a backstroke, he slowly swam to the other deck. When Vince swam away from the diving area, Ken was the next to jump in feet first. A cry could be heard before he was completely submerged in the cold water. The guys looked down to wait for him to surface. Breaking the surface Ken gasped. Heading toward the other dock, he quickly dunked Vince before Vince could quickly escaping to the safety under the dock.
Tom was next to jump in doing a cannonball. He created a big splash, wetting all the guys on the dock. He surfaced gasping only to hear the complaints. Just as soon as he got out of the way the next one jumped into the water. Tom swam up to his brother in-law. They struggled to dunk each other. From under the dock, Vince came up from behind and both ended up being submerged. Vince called out before climbing up the steps, "It's too cold to stay in there."
Watching from the kitchen window, "Aren't they foolish," Eva said as she turned to Tonya. "Now don't look."
As Tom was swimming to the shore, he was walking out of the frigid water when he heard, "Mind if we join you?" The men turned to look to see where that was coming from as the four college-aged fishermen ran naked up the deck giggling. They whooped about how cold it was before cannonballing into the water. Beating Steven to his opportunity to jump in.
Ken and Vince were already up the ladder. Tom walked out of the water. Wayne, Horace, Mark, Fred, Julio, Mason, and the four college-age guys followed up the ladder. As Steven climbed up the ladder, he grabbed the hand extended to him, only to be greeted by Sean and Ephraim. Looking around to see where everyone was, the others were making a mad dash back to the house. Sean hugged his cold, wet naked brother, wishing him a happy new year. Ephraim stood behind Sean shaking his head as he smiled eyeing up Steven's nakedness before giving his brother-in-law a hug, before ushering him back into the warm house.
As the men stood around the fireplace, Steven introduced his brother Sean and his husband Ephraim to Tom's family. Sean not to be outdone apologized for being late as he stripped naked. Kissing Ephraim, he trotted to the patio door; hesitating for a second, he opened the door as the chill blew against his naked body; and ran out the door with his arms wrapped around his chest. The guys in the room watched from inside as he jumped into the frigid water. All chuckling as they had experienced the jolt to the body when they jumped into the frigid water. Keeping an eye to make sure Sean surfaced, they joked about the shrinkage. Whooping about the cold water, Sean swam to the other side; climbed out of the frigid water; running back to the warm cabin; and joined them ringing wet and naked in front of the fireplace with his teeth chattering from the cold.
April was passing around the coffee as she stood in a robe, wearing only a smile as they all bonded over the moment. As the men warmed up, they dispersed into the house waiting for Eva to cook "dinner". They questioned the use of the term "dinner".
As Eva continued to cook, the sauerkraut permeated the air. Slapping the hands that came into nibble on something, Eva reminded them it was bad luck. They had to eat the pork and sauerkraut first. Tom warned them that she is serious about that, "But if you buttered her up, she might let you have a ham sandwich."
Vince and Ken called over to the neighbors that joined them in the polar swim to say, "We have beer and a hot tub." Without hesitation the four accepted their invitation, joining the two older men in the hot tub as they drank their beer and talked about sports. The guys inside ogled them through the window when they were caught, Vince would smile and wave.
Ephraim eyeing the naked college boys headed out to the deck; stripped naked; sitting on the side of the tub removed his leg before he slipped in between two of the college guys. Being handicapped had some perks and he was using this perk to get between them. Though he knew everyone in the tub was straight, he was going to enjoy the `show'.
Wayne and Fred helped Eva with the table. Horace sat chatting with Tonya. Melinda and April joked about their husbands, not knowing that Ephraim `the predator' was sitting with them.
When the men got out of the tub the boys headed next door, Vince and Ken quickly went to their rooms to get dressed.
When the front door opened, Lois and Herb wished everyone, "Happy New Year." Eva's eyes watered as she ran up to hug Steven's parents. "It's so good to see you, just in time."
Lois hugged her while apologizing for them being late, but their flight got delayed. Eva said she made enough for everyone. Lois hugged everyone telling them how good it was to see them again. Herb joined Vince and Ken in having a beer, as they talked about sports hoping to catch a game on TV this afternoon.
Eva called everyone for dinner. They all sat around the table and commented on how good the food smelled. They were all ravenous. Lois held up her glass to offer a toast to everyone, "Happy New Year and it's good to see this place filled with family and friends. Here's to Tom and Steven, for having us here. I sure missed this place and here's to new memories this ole cabin may bring."
