“What??!!”

“Tank top. Shorts. Out.” She winked at her flustered girlfriend and motioned with her hand for the clothing she wanted Jade to remove.

Carla was chuckling as she observed the couple enter the water and start to walk away from the beach just as the guys who were walking down the path arrived. Jade was clad in tight-fitting boyshorts while Rian was in a string bikini. What a hot, sexy couple.

“Oh my …”

“What the …”

“Who are these …”

In a flash, the guys had somehow managed to lay their blankets several feet away from Carla and the other topless Italian women, three of whom were facing up. The girls in their group may have wandered away, Carla thought. The guys were trying to play it cool and not ogle. They were clearly not used to seeing women sunbathing topless in the beach. Looked like that wasn’t a thing here, as Jade was trying to say.

Jade guided Rian to a far enough spot where the water was still shallow. The water level was now mid-thigh level, and they were enough of a distance away from everybody else, about two hundred feet from the beach, so that she was sure anyone who wanted to get an eyeful of Rian would need binoculars to do so. She subtly shifted Rian’s position so that Jade stood between Rian and the beach, effectively shielding Rian off from the people in the beach. Even if they had binoculars.

The subtle manuevering didn’t escape Rian’s notice, though. She smirked as she drew Jade closer, pulling her with hands that rested lightly on the tall woman’s hips. She started to run her hands lightly over Jade’s back, imparting fluttery touches over those sculpted, powerful arms.

Jade tried to swallow and struggled to make conversation, but the constant rubbing of their thighs, Rian’s sensuous caresses all over her back, arms, shoulders, and face, and the heat of the sun bearing down on them – everything combined was getting to be too much. Rian was always the one setting things up for us. She’s so good at seducing me. While I don’t mind, I wonder if she’ll get tired of this pattern at some point?

“Babe… there’s something I have to tell you.”
