Passions Retreat... revived **OPEN**

Demi giggled, still standing in front of the mirror in only her underclothes as she finished her makeup. She turned and looked at her best friend, almost catching her breath. The woman smiled, collected herself, and complimented her friend. So they'd be wearing the same thing, Demi laughed. She'd looked close enough at her friend to notice... no pantylines.

"Well, if we're going to match we may as well match, I guess, right?" She shrugged and rid herself of her own panties before slipping the dress over her body. A couple of squirts of perfume and she was ready, she guessed. She slipped on her shoes and looked to her friend.
"So. You think they're going to call us? Or should we just go? What do you think everyone else will be wearing?" She poured them both a small glass of the champagne from before as she asked millions of questions. She was a bit nervous, knowing the staff would all be looking to her as the new owner... yet she knew very little of what to expect.
 
Liam had left shortly after they had dismissed him. He himself would have to get ready for the initiation they had planned. He sometimes wondered the point of it, but it was something the old man had insisted on. So he made his way back to his small home, and quickly showered, shaved, and dressed in clean clothes. Then he went to the location they always held the initiation party in. He arrived while they were still setting up, and took a seat in a nearby chair.
 
Joseph MacKennen

Mac had continued to help with the cooking, until he finally had to go clean up for the evenings festivities. He knew that with the housekeeper in charge of setting up the main event, and Ed's desire to be fashionably late, it fell to him to greet the ladies and lead them to the party. He showered, shaved, and put on his dark blue suit. He even put on a tie. He was soon standing at the door to the sweet. The boots he had put on, made him even taller, and hoped the ladies wouldn't be intimidated by his presence. Slowly Mack Knocked, and awaited a response. His blue eyes swept the hallway, and as he waited he wondered, just what exactly was Ed doing at this very moment while he waited to meet and greet Demi and Beth to Passions, the retreat of retreats.

Ed smiled at Mara's apparent nervousness.

He could see that he needed to explain further. It was the only fair thing to do, both for Mara and for Passions itself.

"Well, 'clothing-optional' for staff is more complicated than for guests. For example, the law mandates hair restraints when you're handling food. And, although I don't think the law requires an apron when you're frying bacon...Ouch!"

"But it is true, within the boundaries imposed by safety, legality and courtesy, the staff as well as the guests here at Passions are allowed to wear, or not wear, whatever they wish."

"If you haven't seen any nudity yet, I guarantee you will before too long, and you need to work out how you feel about that in your own mind."

Suddenly, Ed had a thought that almost made him blanch.

"Come to think of it...Were you planning on coming to the party to welcome Demi and Beth tonight?"

Mara took a few moments to regester what he had explained about the clothing optional and new there was alot more that needed explained, but as it was optional she wasnt too worried about it. Tho she did wondred how much time she had to learn more before the party tonight.

Well i am sort of going to be there i will be working... serving drinks ect.. Why do you ask? Mara wasnt sure she wanted to know but better to know what to expect than to walk in on something.

Oh, shit.

Ed suddenly felt like he was sending his daughter out on her first date...but first, he had about thirty seconds in which to explain the facts of life to her.

"Ok, Mara, let's back up."

"Mr. Faye's original concept for Passions Retreat was pretty simple: He meant it to be a place where people could be themselves. A place, in other words, where people could own and pursue their passions; the things that most of us spend a lifetime burying, because society tells us to, for one reason or another."

"Some people, for example, come here just to write, or just to paint."

"But it's no secret that many - most - of our guests come here because it's a safe place to explore their sensual sides."

"The basic rules here are simple: Rule number one is safety first. Rule number two is that we follow all applicable laws, and no one under 18 is allowed at the resort. Rule number three is that nothing happens to anyone that they don't want to happen to them."

"Rule number four is that, within the boundaries set by rules one through three, anything goes."

"Now, about tonight. If everything works out the way that we're hoping, Demi will be living here and running the place now, with Beth as her partner. But she and Beth are even newer to Passions, and the concept of Passions, than you are. So, the party tonight is both to welcome them...and to help them decide if this is really the place where they want to be."

"Call it a baptism by immersion."

"So, again, I need you to understand and to decide for yourself if you're ok with everything that I've explained to you. Please take a few moments to think about it and ask any questions that you may have while we've got a few minutes."

"If working the party tonight is a problem for you, just say so and don't worry about your job. Rule number three applies just as much for staff as for guests."
 
At first Mara thought he might be joking as he begain expalining but the look on his face told her otherwise, and as she continued to listen she reolized that this was defanatly not an ordanary job but the rules were good and made it safe for everyone... Well to be honest i am not sure how i feel about it all, but i think as long as like you said nothing happens you dont want that i'll be fine with working the party ect and see what happens from there. I appreceat your explaining things to me.. she said and smiled softly.

Seeing the time on the clock Mara new she would have to get back to the kitchen to help the cook Liz prepare for the evening, and smiled she had to keep her hair up so it didnt get in the food she surved but she could at least undo a few of the top buttons so that she didnt feel like she was choaking.. Looking back at Ed after she undid the top three buttons she stood and said Thanks again and if i have any questions i'll come back see you. For now tho Liz is going to need me in the kitchen.

Mara left Ed's office with her tray and made her way down to the kitchen things were almost ready for the party and Mara was glad that at least she had some idea of what to expect and new that if she wanted that she could full fill a fantasy or two of her own, but first things first she still had to work..
 
Beth

Beth was looking Demi up and down for a bit, and had come to the conclusion that her friend wore the dress much better than her. No surprise there; Demi always did have that quiet grace that Beth never really could master; she was just too jumpy, too excitable.

"Well... I guess we should head on down there on our own. I mean, it might be that since no one really knows you yet that they don't really know what to make of you. Being the new boss and all." She saluted again. "And where you go, your trusty henchwoman shall follow! As long as it's nowhere TOO icky or gross, of course. So lead on to the party!" She giggled, then grabbed Demi by the wrist and pulled her up to her feet and dragged her toward the door, falling into step behind her as she started moving.
 
Still at the door, Mac knocked yet agin, hoping the ladies were alright inside. They were probably getting ready. he let his hands fall back to his sides as he waited to see if someone would answer the door.
 
As the girls rushed at the door, there was an insistent knock, as if the person had been waiting a bit. Demi hadn't heard a knock before now! Had she been THAT enthralled with her friend's attire? Certainly the resort hadn't gotten to her that far, that quickly....

She collected herself, stifled a giggle, and opened the door. Gasping, she took in the looks of the man at the door. "Wow." Was all she could muster, as she only stared at him. Reaching behind her without looking, she fumbled around until she felt what she was pretty sure was Beth's arm.

"She's Beth. I'm Demi. Hi." She smiled sweetly, trying to collect herself. Normally she wasnt quite this google-eyed with handsome men, but the thoughts resounding in her mind since their revelations had her thinking tihngs about this one.... She cleared her throat and apologized, then reached her hand out for a handshake.
"I guess I'm your boss." She laughed more easily this time, and reached behind them to shut the door as she and her best friend walked with the most handsome man she'd seen in a long, long time down the hallway to the party. She only cast an "OMG can you SEE HIM????" look at her friend before she was good old Demi, business woman extraordinaire once again, complete with the walk.
 
Joseph MacKennen

He smiled at the beautiful women before him, "A pleasure to meet you Demi, beth." he said shaking Demi's hand, his large hand engulfing hers completely. He then shook hands with beth. "I am Joseph MacKennen, commonly referred to as Mac around here." he smiled, "Yes, you would be my boss." he said. "I am to escort you to the party. Ed will not be making an appearance until later." he shrugged, "I'm not really the next in line or anything, But I suppose I would be the next in standing around here that is male. But that's not the point. Officially I am head of maintenence and technical support, or some such garbage." he said with a small laugh. "I'm just the local handyman. You need a wrench or a snake around here, I'm the guy you call." he then coughed, realizing his accidental inuendo. "Well that is, if something breaks, I can fix it." he said, "Unless that it is your heart broke, and then I could certainly try, but I couldn't make any promises." he flashed another smile, wondering if that would draw a laugh from his new employers. He really didn't know what to expect from them. "Well yes, well we're going to the main ball room, if you didn't already know. I am not sure if you've had a full tour, although I'm sure Ed handled everything. Did you ladies have any questions?" he asked, trying to play the good hoast for now.
 
Mara

Mara entered the kitchens and smiled at Liz setting down her samll serving tray in order to pick up one of the other trays loaded with food and helped to carrie everything out to the ball room and set things up.
 
Beth

Beth shook Joseph's hand, enjoying the firmness of his grip; she couldn't help but wonder what his hands would feel like gripping other parts of her, but dismissed the thought for now. His comment about mending broken hearts did indeed arouse a giggle from her, but it was something else he said that amused her a bit more.

"Ball room, huh?" Beth grinned. "I suppose that in a place like this, we'll need a pretty well-equipped ball room."

She elbowed Demi.

"Boss Lady here'll probably want to see that place ASAP, yeah? She's probably in need of a good balling..." She ducked aside to avoid the inevitable jab back from her friend.
 
Demi had caught the slip about the snake... and her mouth dropped open for a moment. The next thing she heard was Beth's smart-ass remark about needing a balling, and she reached out to punch her friend in the arm. Beth had seen it coming, though, and moved out of the way just in time. Demi stuck her tongue out at her instead.

Still trying to compose herself and stay the righteous, bossy business woman she normally was, she replied to Mac's question. "No, no questions really. And Ed did a fine job of giving us a tour. He mentioned the party, but we don't really know what to expect. And I'm a bit lost on what to say to everyone." She did her face in a funny expression and imitated... herself. "Hi. I'm your new boss. My dad died and left me this fucking farm. I need a fuck. Who's first??"
She looked at Beth, finally getting that punch in, and burst into laughter.
 
Joseph MacKennen

Mac couldn't help but laugh, and stopped theatrically bowing to her, "Oh my lady do let me be first." he said sweeping her off her feet," he laughed and set her back down. "Plenty of time for that later. You'll have to meet everyone first. And just be yourself. No one is going to try to jump your bones the second you walk in." he said, "Even if you're beautiful enough to give a man visions of doing such. Just remember the policy, no one does what he or she is not comfortable with." he continued walking standing between the ladies now. "Granted if you are willing, the staff will probably stand in line to be with either of you." he said with a chuckle. "But honestly just be yourself, who ever that is, don't act like you might end up in bed with any of them, just act like this is any normal business at least at first. We are just normal people here, not fuck machines. We have the same feelings and personalities as anyone else, we are just a bit freer, so to speak with our inhibitions maybe?" he said looking between the ladies.
 
Beth

Beth had a thoughtful look on her face, glancing between Demi and Joseph as they goofed around. When their conversation dropped, she spoke.

"Well... you know, Demi... you being the boss and all, you've got a lot of stuff on your plate and it's probably a waste of your time to take care of all the paperwork a place like this builds up. You can just leave all that to me; I'll make sure all the busy work here gets taken care of early so you won't need to interrupt your busy work day. Okay, this analogy is kind of losing steam... trust me, it sounded funnier before I started. Maybe I shoulda just said something like, 'You want me to throw anyone a test-fuck for ya, all you gotta do is point!'"

She winked at Demi, then turned to Joseph.

"So I suppose that a place like this either has an HR department the size of an army, or none at all, yeah? And what about vacations; do we get to go to a convent or a nunnery to get away from the sex once it gets old? Am I babbling again?" She glanced at Demi. "I'm babbling, aren't I. Shutting up!"

She closed her mouth and with big eyes watched and waited to see where Joseph would lead them next.
 
"Sex get old?" he asked with a deadpan, before cracking a smile and laughing. "I suppose we could arrange to send you to a convent, but only if you ask on bended knees." he laughed, "Wait, bad analagy here, lets skip that part, unless you want to, oh hell, now I'm babbling." he glanced at Beth, "You've infected me," he then glanced at Demi, "Be careful, you might catch it too." He then tried to straighten his face, "Oh do forgive me, I should try to be more formal with you, as my boss and everything." he said, only partially seriously. It was kind of ludicrice to think of him treating her formally, when he might end up at the end of the night between her thighs, or more likely, those of Beth, since he figured Ed would try to clame Demi for himself. Although, at the same time it seemed all to normal for him to treat her a bit formally, it was the way he was, and he did say they were normal people, they should try to act like they had a normal business relationship, save for the fact they had less inhibitions around one another. Basically the staff and guests were a walking contradiction. They wanted to act like nothing was abnormal or peranormal about Passions, but the truth was, they couldn't hide it totally, and honestly they didn't want to, not truly. Pretty much everyone that worked here, loved it, and did what ever was requested of them. Mac knew the reason everyone felt so easy about indulging themselves, because they knew no one would judge them, and they only had to do what he or she wanted.
 
BAH.
