“Lovey, you’ve found yourself a fine man,” El teased. I agreed, and so did Parker as he handed me the drink, he’d made me and laughed.
“She did pretty well, didn’t she?” Parker asked as he winked at me. Everyone laughed at that, and I gave him a friendly slap on the ass.
“El, to answer your question, yes, I found a fine man,” I said.
“Anyone up for a swim? The sun is strong,” Kayla said.
“I’ll go in with you,” Javier agreed, both of them preparing to jump off the side of the boat as I took pictures, and then they jumped.
Following them into the ocean, El and Anthony held hands as they jumped in. “Come in; it’s warm,” El said.
I looked over at Parker with one eyebrow raised. “Want to?” I questioned. He smiled and grabbed my hand. Hesitant to jump, it was so high up, I backed away a step.
In one swift movement, Parker picked me up like a feather and jumped off the side of the boat. I screamed as we hit the water. He did not let me go, even when coming back to the surface. I was happy I’d worn a thong, otherwise hitting thewater would have created one for me. Splashing and scolding Parker for his actions, I laughed as I wrapped my arms and legs around him. “I’ll get you back for that!” I said.
He smiled. “Promise?”
I threw my head back and laughed. “You’re impossible, you know.”
He agreed and kissed me. “I know, but you love me anyway.”
Taken aback by his comment, I dove into the water, hoping not to show that I had to think about that comment for a few minutes. When I resurfaced, he caught me in his arms; we kissed passionately while the others swam around, splashing and playing.
After a bit, we all climbed back on board the boat. I was feeling the effects of the alcohol, so I grabbed a banana to eat.
I spritzed coconut oil on my bronzed skin and rubbed it in. My skin felt tight from the sun and the saltwater and Parker helped me with my back; the touch of his soft hands caused my body to react in all the right ways.
We returned to my place to clean up and have the seafood feast. Javier was the most helpful when tying up the boat and securing it and the guys said they’d manage the unloading, so Kayla and I went to the house.
I showed Kayla the spare bath, gave her a towel, and told her to take her time and to let me know if she needed anything. I followed suit in the master bath. The shower hit my stinging skin; I turned the water a bit cooler, shampooed, washed, andturned the water off. Feeling much better, I wrapped the towel around me and put on moisturizer.
While re-braiding my hair, Parker came in and started kissing my neck, “My turn?”
“You guys get everything unloaded?”
He nodded his head. “Yes. I also showed El, Anthony, and Javier to the bathrooms at my house, so they could shower and meet back up here.”
How thoughtful, I thought. I turned and gave him a quick kiss. “Hit the shower; I’ll dress and meet you on the lanai. Kayla should be done with her shower soon.”
I walked out of the bath and into the walk-in closet, wearing the sundress that I’d bought in Miami. It was low-cut, showing off ample cleavage, with cold shoulders and sleeves. It hugged every curve on my body.
Barefoot, of course, I walked into the kitchen, seeing Kayla enter at the same time. She wore a flowing maxi dress and looked adorable. We hugged, and I told her how much I enjoyed their company.
“Parker should be out of the shower soon; the other boys are next door showering; want a drink?” I asked, and Kayla gladly accepted.
After entering the lanai area, I lit all the torches to keep bugs away and give us light when darkness arrived. We sat and talked with soft music playing in the background, waiting for the others to arrive.
“I had so much fun today; we’ll have to do that again soon.”
“Looks like you got a lot of sun today,” I told Kayla.
“Yeah, usually by the next day it tans, though.” She smiled and took a sip of her drink, then continued. “So, has Parks told you about when he was ten and his sister and he got in trouble for jumping off the seawall?”
I laughed and told her no; he’d not mentioned that.
“It was so funny. They’d gotten into so much trouble. Their punishment was to clean up all the debris at their end of the canal.”
I was laughing when Parker walked in with the others.
