<em>~ All together in the Great Hall ~</em><br/><br/>Having Mila take her hand was so comforting and Nicci held it between them, their own little secret, and smiled back a Mari, who seemed to be so at ease, up close she was just as beautiful and vivacious as she had seemed walking in so hurriedly through the door and from her expression just as attracted to the three men as she was.  She grinned, oooh this was going to be interesting.<br/><br/>As she has been swinging for so long, Nicci was very comfortable with the idea of group sex and had known for such a long time now that she would need to be in either an open or a poly relationship if she was ever to have the chance of settling down.  And she felt her body react to the promise of what would probably happen over the next few days. She didn't want to leap into it though, this was no one off party, it was more important to bond with the girls and make sure they were all supportive with each other if this was going to have a chance of succeeding she thought.<br/><br/>She wondered too about the actual processes they would go through and how it might be best to start getting to know each other intimately.  It was easy to get blindsided by an instant attraction and forget the needs of everyone else.  She could see the psychologists point about the making sure you didn't fracture off and concentrate on one person too much, that could lead to difficulties.  But how were they going to overcome that?  She wondered if they needed some very open and frank discussions before they even started on the sexual side of their journey together.<br/><br/>Although.... she thought, God it was going to be hard to be sensible and not jump into the sack with any of them...... god......all of them, she had another mental image of.... oh lord, she really must concentrate, especially as Vince was so charmingly asking one of them to dance.<br/><br/>Normally she would have taken him straight up on the offer, flirting outrageously probably too, but she didn't want to put herself forward over the other girls.  She glanced at Mila, whose hand still held hers- she probably wouldn't want to put herself forward at all, and then across at Mari, who looked up for anything.<br/><br/>Thinking swiftly she decided that to really help the group dynamics the most she would need to be creative so picking up Mila's hand she presented it to Vince, and even through she could feel the tension rise in Mila's body she knew that this was the right thing to do, “I think this lovely lady would love to dance with you,” she said to Vince, smiling into his eyes, hoping he would read her unspoken message that she was trying to help Mila, and giving the lovely woman's fingers a reassuring squeeze she turned and smiled at her too, kissing her cheek briefly whispering in Mila's ear very quietly, “Have fun.”<br/><br/>She looked across at Mari, who had probably not been in the room long enough to gauge Mila's shyness and may not have realised what Nicci had set out to do or why.  Then as she sipped her drink again, listening to Bo and Marcus her attention was drawn to them, Bo following Vince's lead  and it looked as though thankfully they would all be dancing and no-one would be left out.  She sensed immediately Marcus' reluctance and smiled, having got into bed naked with men she had never met before, in front of a whole film crew, she was very used to that sort of tension in a man, and dancing was very much like that, putting yourself up on show and the intimacy of movements you may not be sure of.<br/><br/>She looked down and then across at Mari again, wondering who Bo would choose, from his reaction a moment ago she thought it would probably be Mari, the woman seemed to have a sultry fire in her and she imagined she would be a fabulous dancer. She smiled reassuringly at Marcus, if they ended up dancing together she was sure that she could help him enjoy it, she knew she would love to dance with any of the three gorgeous men.
