“Can you get free from the girls tonight? Meet me on the beach once it gets dark?”
“Yeah, I’ll find a way to sneak away.”
“Let’s meet down on the beach next to the resort. Then we can decide where to go from there.”
“Okay,” I say. The thrill that’s running through my body is making me feel like I need to jump up and down. Everything about this situation is out of character for me but I’ve never been more excited in my life. “I should get back before the girls start to wonder what happened to me.”
“Yeah, I’ll see you later.” He walks me to the stairs and then we part ways. He heads in the other direction back to his room and I practically run up the stairs back to mine.
It takes me three tries before I get my key card to work but finally I get the green light and open the door.
“You got lost again, didn’t you?” Shari asks when I stroll into the room.
Mattie’s just coming out of the bathroom, drying her hair with a towel. “You look flushed, are you okay?”
“Yes, I’m good. I took a wrong turn, that’s all. But I’ve returned with ice!” I set it down on the desk and scoop ice into four glasses. We were on our way to starting our night when I left to get ice so we might as well get the drinks flowing now. Besides, I feel like celebrating. “So what are the plans for tonight?”
I want time to speed up so it’s night and I can meet Luke on the beach. I’m aching between my thighs and I know that feeling won’t go away until I can get on with my late night rendezvous.
“When I was at the pool today, I overheard some people talking about a popular bar. It isn’t too far away, we could take a taxi,” Heidi says.
“There’s also the bar right here in the hotel. And the beach parties are fun. It’s a lot easier if we don’t have to worry about how we’re getting home at the end of the night.” Hopefully they’ll buy my suggestion. It is easier staying on the property but really I don’t know how I’d slip away by myself and get back to the resort if we decided to go downtown.
“It is nice being able to walk where we want to go,” Mattie says. “Cheaper too. They really jack up the prices of taxis late at night when they know all the tourists need to get back to the resorts.”
“Well I don’t care where we go, as long as there’s booze and men.” Shari says.
“You are easy to please, aren’t you?” Heidi says.
We all laugh as I pass out drinks to everyone. Once we all have our glasses, Shari holds hers up and says, “Cheers to a fun vacation with friends!” We clink glasses but before I take a drink, I add, “And here’s to the best night yet.”
“Cheers,” we all say and raise our glasses for a drink.
Chapter 6
“You came,” he says, walking to meet me on the edge of the beach.
“Of course I came,” I say.
As soon as I’m standing in front of him he leans down and gives me a soft kiss on the lips. It’s short but holds promise for what’s to come. I’m glad it’s dark because I can feel my cheeks flush while my heartbeat quickens in my chest.
“You were able to get away okay?” he asks.
“Yes. I told the girls I had a headache and was going back to sleep it off. You?”
“I just told the guys that I’d see them later. Guys are different than girls, they don’t really care why I’m leaving as long as they’re having a good time.”
I laugh. “I never thought about that. I need to stick with my story or the girls will find out what I’ve been up to. I’m not a good liar and they’re always suspicious for good gossip.”
“That’s a good thing. That you’re not a good liar,” he says to clarify when I give him a curious look. He takes my hand and we start to walk down to the water. It’s dark on the beach at this time of night, but the moon creates a soft light that reflects off of the water.
“I thought there’d be more people out but it’s pretty deserted.”
“Yeah, it’s nice and private. Most people are at the bars or beach parties by now. I thought we could walk down and take a dip in the water. It’ll be like bath water tonight.”
“Um, okay but I don’t have my swimming suit on. Just my dress,” I say, taking the hem of my skirt and giving it a fluff.
“It’s just you and me.” He takes the strap of my dress and fondles it between his thumb and forefinger. Subconsciously I lean toward him, wanting to feel more of him than just the whisper of his touch on my shoulder. “Besides, I know how much you enjoy nude sunbathing,” he says with the trace of a smile on his lips.
“That was my first time, actually.”
“I’m hoping to be there for a lot of your firsts this vacation.”
His honesty has left me speechless but incredibly aroused. There’s a steady throb in my pussy that makes me want to slip my fingers in my panties and relieve some of the pressure. Better yet, I want Luke’s hands there. Or his mouth or cock. I don’t feel picky right now.
“We better get started then, we have a lot to cover.” The look on his face makes me giggle. The mix of shock and desire staring back at me is a look I want to remember for a long time. I take a quick look around to see if anyone has come down on the beach since we’ve been talking.
When I don’t see anyone, I reach up and pull the straps of my dress off of my shoulders. It doesn’t fall elegantly to the sand because it’s cinched around my breasts and I have to pull the top down and over my curvy hips. When I do finally get it off, I’m standing under the light of the moon in nothing but my panties.
I wasn’t thinking, just acting when I undressed but now that I’m standing here under Luke’s intense gaze, I’m losing my nerve. My nerves make me want to cover myself and show a little more modesty because even though I’m excited about making out with Luke, I don’t have a lot of experience and I don’t want to move too fast.
“My turn,” he says pulling his shirt over his head. Now it’s my turn to gawk. My eyes move over the bulges of his strong chest and shoulders. I can’t wait to feel his strength as he holds me in his arms and presses his hard muscles against my body. “Shorts on or off?” he asks, resting his hands on his waist.
Now that I’m in the moment, I’m overwhelmed with my shyness. All of the times I imagined how this would go, I thought I’d be bold and eager to experience what it seems like everyone else on the planet has experienced. But my inexperience has a grip on me, making me doubt myself.
“Shorts on for now…if that’s okay.” My timidness makes me want to pull my dress back on and cover myself, maybe even change my mind and run back to the room.
But Luke being Luke knows how to put me at ease. I should have known that he’d be the perfect gentleman.
“Whatever you feel comfortable with. I’m happy just being with you. Even if that means we stay completely clothed and sit right here in the sand and talk.” He leans down to grab his shirt that he discarded in the sand so I quickly step forward and take his hand.
“Lets go for a swim,” I say, pulling him toward the water.
He pulls on my hand, stopping me. He unbuttons his shorts and pulls them down, saying, “I’ll keep my boxers on. I don’t want to have to walk around in wet shorts all night.”
“That makes complete sense.” I continue walking into the water without him. It’s dark and no one else is around, but I still feel exposed and want to submerge myself as quickly as possible. Luke was right, the water is warm like bathwater tonight. I wade in slowly but walk pretty far out. The water is just under my chest when I stop.
I hear splashing but when I turn around I don’t see Luke. A moment later he pops up from under the water right in front of me. I laugh and he wraps his arms around me, pulling me in close and pressing his lips to mine before I have a chance to get cold feet again.
The unexpectedness of the kiss takes all of the stress out of it for me, forcing my mind to go blank, only focused on the feeling of his lips on mine. The water makes our lips wet, creating a smooth fricti
on between us. The fullness of his lips envelops mine, but instead of satisfying my need, he’s making me hungry for more.
I wrap my arms around his neck, pulling myself as close as possible, the ache inside of me making me bold. His tongue parts my lips and licks into my mouth making me quiver with need.
We kiss like this until my lips are swollen and tender. When we pull away we’re both breathing heavily, our eyes locked on each other. He’s looking at me in a such a way that makes me desperate for more. More of anything, being held in his arms, having him kiss me so I don’t remember my name, or even just being here together, practically naked in the ocean at night.
“Wow, that was…” He’s searching for the right words to describe the passion that has been unleashed between us. Maybe it has been just under the surface for both of us, never given the opportunity to explore what could happen if we ever acted on it. “Hot,” he finally finishes.
“More,” I say, pulling him to me again. My nipples have formed hard peaks that rub against his chest, causing tingling sensations to travel down my body, pooling in my pussy.
“Luke?” I say when we come up for air and his lips travel down to my neck, just under my ear.
“Yes?” He pulls back, looking into my eyes.
“Touch me, please,” I say.
He’s pleasantly surprised by my request, I can tell by the grin on his face.
“With pleasure,” he says, instantly becoming serious again. He looks down at my breasts bobbing just above the surface of the water. He gently cups them, slowly kneading with his hands while using his thumbs to brush over and play with my nipples.
The sensations make me close my eyes, tip my head back and moan.
“No one’s ever touched you like this before?” he asks.
“Not like this. Not this good.” My voice is heavy with desire. Even though I’m under the water I know my pussy is slick and wet with arousal.
His hand moves down my stomach, his fingers slipping into my panties. His sizable finger slides into my slit, opening me for him. Using two fingers, he parts my folds while rubbing a third finger just at my entrance. Instead of pushing inside of me, he circles his finger around, exploring.
I slide my hands to his arms, holding on tightly while he explores me. Suddenly one of his fingers brushes over my clit, causing a sharp intake of breath.
“Does that feel good too?” he asks.
I open my eyes to find that he’s watching me intently. He licks his lips and I can’t help myself, I crash my lips onto his again. I’m practically frantic with an animalistic need.
“Tell me how good it feels,” he says, rubbing his fingers all over my pussy.
Just before I answer him, I feel his finger push inside my body and I whimper. I can’t form words I’m so focused on the feeling of his finger stroking me on the inside.
“Tell me,” he says again.
“I feel like I’m going to explode.” I manage to say while squeezing his arms tightly and looking into his eyes.
“Will it hurt you if I put another finger in?”
“I don’t think so.” Without realizing, my body tenses around his finger while I wait for the sensation of two fingers inside of me. He leans down and kisses me softly, slowly licking me.
“Just relax,” he says into my mouth. And then I feel another finger stretch me and push inside. I’m squeezing his arms tightly, adjusting to the feeling of having so much inside of me.
“Does that hurt?” he asks.
“No, it feels so good.” Apparently I’ve lost all ability to use any word besides “good.” I’m still gripping his biceps and now I use them as leverage as I start to rock my body into his hand. He has two fingers stroking me from the inside while his palm cups my pussy as I move my body along with his rhythm.
My breathing is ragged and my pussy is so hot I’m becoming engulfed in the sensations racking my body.
“Let it come, I’ve got you,” Luke whispers into my ear, then takes my lobe and gently sucks it. I start to come and it thunders through my body like a roller coaster hitting the big drop. It’s such a powerful sensation that I’m pushing myself into Luke’s hand, hard, while my knuckles turn white I’m holding onto his arms so hard.
We’re still in the water and I’ve basically pulled myself into his lap while he was making me come undone. After a few moments, I pull back, Luke’s lips finding mine, ready for another kiss. For the first time it’s registering that he’s very erect and I’m assuming now painfully hard.
“What can I do for you?” I ask while reaching my hands down and gingerly slipping them into his boxers. I grip his hard cock, as smooth as velvet, and slowly start to pump.
“That’s perfect. Just like that.” He takes my head in his hands and leans his forehead down to mine while I do exactly what I was doing when he told me it was perfect. His hands move down to my breasts and he holds them in his hands while I continue to work his cock. He starts to move his hips into my hand and it only takes a few more pumps and he gets even harder, cursing and thrusting while he comes.
“I hope ‘fuck’ is a good thing,” I say after a moment.
He laughs. “Yes, it’s a very good thing.”
We stand together in the water, just holding each other for a little while longer. “A late night swim was a really good idea,” I say, looking up into his relaxed face. “Though in hindsight, we probably should have been more conscious of sharks. If I wasn’t with such a handsome guy, I never would have gone skinny-dipping at night. Not after watching Jaws when I was younger.”
“You’re safe with me, even from sharks.”
“I know,” I say, smiling. We make our way back toward the beach. We’re almost to the sand when we look down the beach and see a large group of people making their way unknowingly to our private little party.
“Oh shit.” I’m already searching the beach, frantically trying to find my dress in the sand before I expose myself to a hoard of vacationers.
“Here it is,” Luke says, tossing my dress to me. He steps into his shorts while I pull my dress over my head. Once we’re dressed, we link fingers and take off laughing down the beach. It doesn’t take long for us to get back to the resort and I’m out of breath when we stumble our way into the lobby.
“I suppose we should part ways,” I say.
“Let me at least walk you to your room. Then we’ll go our separate ways.”
“Okay…but we can’t hold hands. Just in case.”
“Okay,” he says, holding his hands up in surrender.
We get to the spot in the resort where I go up the stairs to get to my room and he keeps going on the main floor. Looking at him but keeping my distance, I say, “Maybe I’ll see you tomorrow?”
“Absolutely.” With a quick look around he leans in and gives me a kiss. “Now head upstairs so I can make sure you make it to your room okay.”
I practically skip up the stairs with a huge smile on my face. It has been an extraordinary day. I get to my room, pull out my key and am about to slip it in the lock when the door opens and I’m standing face to face with Mattie and my brother.
Chapter 7
I stand in the doorway with a stunned look on my face, curiosity taking a close second to the panic I’m feeling right now.
“Jason? What are you doing here?” I ask.
My heart is practically pounding out of my chest while I wait to see why he’s here. Hopefully not checking up on me.
“Hey, Mel.” His tone is casual and relaxed, allowing me to take a deep breath knowing he’s not onto me. “I was walking Mattie home. She was worried about you, but I didn’t want her walking alone.”
“Yeah, I thought you’d be back by now,” Mattie says.
“Oh yeah, well…I decided to walk along the beach and enjoy the quiet. The fresh air really helped my headache so I decided to sit down there for a while.”
“You’re feeling better?” Jason asks. “You didn’t drink too much, did you?”
�
��No, I told you I would behave myself.”
“Good. And now that you two ladies are back safe and sound I’ll head out.”
I panic again for a moment, thinking about how I usually give Jason a hug when we say goodbye. Even though I’ve been in the water, it’s possible that I smell like Luke. Not that Jason would know what Luke smells like, but he would recognize that I smell like a guy.
“Have a good rest of your night,” I say, leaning in and giving him a quick kiss on the cheek.
“You too.” He turns and waves, already bounding down the stairs.
Once he’s out of sight, I quickly walk into the room and close the door behind me.
“All right, spill.” Mattie turns to me as soon as the door clicks shut.
“What do you mean, spill?” I grab a hair-tie out of my purse that I left on the desk and pull my hair up.
“I mean, what’s going on with you tonight? Who did you sneak out to see?”
“It wasn’t like that. I was tired of the party scene and wanted some quiet. That’s all.” I flop down on the bed and grab the remote control. Pressing the “on” button, I start channel-surfing, hoping I can distract her enough to keep her from realizing that there are things I’m trying to hide.
“You’re a terrible liar, you know. If it was just a headache, I would have gone with you. Like Jason said, you shouldn’t be walking around by yourself at night.” She comes over and sits on the other bed, leaning against the headboard. “Now spill. Who were you with tonight?”
I look at her sheepishly, knowing I can’t continue to deny what I’ve been up to. She’s right, I am a terrible liar. “I was with Luke,” I say.
She just stares at me with a stunned look on her face.
“Really?” she asks, a huge smile spreading across her face while she sits on the edge of the bed at complete attention for the rest of the story. “You guys hooked up?”
“We kissed and messed around a bit but not anything too serious. But you can’t tell anyone else. Not the girls and you can’t mention it when we’re around Jason.”
