“I thought we’d stay the whole time. We’re basically on a very nice vacation where food is catered. There’s a pool and a hot tub, and–”
“And we have to follow Nia’s rules. I get why. She’s trying to make sure we’re compatible in more ways than one. This music thing is really smart. The hiking thing was good, too. Having us not talk about sex or love the first couple of days worked as well. But today, I was staring at you while she was giving us instructions, and as much as I’d like to learn your favorite songs, I also want to be able to be with you.”
“Youare. I’m straddling you right now.”
“I meant alone. I want to be alone with you. I don’t want to have to have breakfast or do these activities with a bunch of other people when we could be doing that on our own or doing something else thatwewant to do, like maybe walk along the lake or find a weekend for the cabin we talked about.”
“Sitting by your fire might be a little too hot right now, but in the winter it’ll be nice.”
“But there’s wine at my house and that tub you want to try out with me. There’s also a bedroom and a bed in it that we could share. I know there are a ton of free sex toys here, but I have some of my own. I know you do, too. We could buy more together. We don’tneedto be here.”
“What if I kind of like the idea of being here until it’s over?” Kristina asked.
Jennifer nodded and said, “Then, we stay.”
“But you don’t want to?”
“I want to be with you, so if you’re here, I’m here. I just don’t like the rules. I’m an adult; I want to be able to touch you whenever we want and not feel like I have to obey Nia.”
“I see. Well, I have an idea.”
“You do?”
“At least, for now. I think it’s something that could get us both what we want.”
“What doyouwant? Why do you want to stay?”
“Because I think this is good. Everything Nia has suggested or told us to do has led us here, and I’m good here. It’s not that much longer, and I want to stick it out. Yes, I want to be alone with you, see your place, walk along the lake with you, and everything else, but I also like it here; being withyouhere, I mean.”
“Okay, then. What’s your idea?”
“You could put on a song,” Kristina suggested.
“That’s the activity we’resupposedto do,” she replied, laughing a little.
“We’re supposed to talk about what the song means.”
“Yes,” she said, still wondering where Kristina was going with this.
“What if we play a sexy song?” Kristina reached for the hem of her skirt, which Jennifer had helped her pick out that morning, thinking about how she’d be able to find chances to touch her even if Nia didn’t want them to do that during the day. “And you could tell me how that sexy song makes you feel.”
Kristina lifted her skirt a bit, revealing her white cotton panties.
“Oh, shit,” Jennifer let out and turned her head to see that Nia was still focused on her laptop. “Really? She said no fooling around or having sex.”
“She told us to use music to communicate, right? That’s the point of the activity. Well, I’d like you to communicate by touching me while we listen to a song about sex. Is that something you’d also like to do?”
“Yes.” Jennifer nodded and placed her hands high on Kristina’s thighs, letting her thumb graze her through the underwear she wished Kristina wasn’t wearing. “But before we do that, let’s move.”
“Move where?”
“The yard.”
“Yard?”
“The grass. We can pull the chair over there, where she can’t see us.”
“What if Iwanther to see us?”
