Chapter 13: Hot and Bothered
"Hey guys, do you want to join me in the hot springs?" I asked them. "Uh, sure I guess…" Sig slowly nodded. "I'll come too, these springs sound intriguing." Klug said. "It might be steamy in there… I'm not sure…" Schezo trailed off. The rest of us thought of that wording from Schezo as wrong, I saw it in their faces too.. "I'll join if it means that the spring can heal me of this irritating ant bite, or at least alleviate it." Risukuma assumed. "Bein' heated up like a suh-weet dessert, I like the sound of that…" Lemres said. "Okay then, get towels ready for this." I told them. We gathered back together at the changing station outside of our area. The girls were likely on the other side. "Oh Tee, I didn't expect you to be here!" I said in surprise. "Yeah, I brought him along with me Dave, he was also looking forward to it." Ex said. "So for those of you who don't know, these two are Captain Ex and Assistant Captain Tee of the SS Tetra. "Oh 'eeeey, I remember you, Tee. How's it goin' for ya?" Lemres asked. "Say, I remember you too, we had that one exciting battle back then." Tee recalled. "Hahaha, I was pretty good at the time, was I?" Lemres continued. "Anyway, it looks like you've made some great friends, Dave…" Ex points to us. "Yep, and I wouldn't have it any other way. So, who's ready to dive into the spring?" I finally asked. All the guys nodded as a sign to me. I undressed myself in privacy and wrapped the towel around my waist. I get out to see that I was the first one done. It didn't take too long for myself to be the only one there. "So I suppose they're taking a little bit to finish…" Klug assumed. "Yeah, it looks to be that way… Hey are you guys okay in there?" I called out to them. "We're doin' fine, just gettin' sidetracked by a discussion." Lemres answered. Me and Klug didn't know what the discussion entailed, so we merely ignored it. Eventually, we all entered the spring, having a warm reception towards it. "Oh my goodness, I haven't felt this great in years!" Ex complimented the spring. "This is surprisingly comfortable…" Schezo thought. "I don't feel the ant bite anymore, this is unprecedented." Risukuma said. "Just as I thought, I feel like a hot treat. Ah… I'm in sugar paradise…" Lemres calmly trailed. "I'm not sure how to feel about this, Ex... it's unfamiliar to me." Tee addressed. "Ah, maybe you just feel uneasy, relax and it should come through." He suggested. "Yeah, trust him Tee, as an introvert, I still feel extremely calm here. Being with friends accentuates this for me, that includes you Tee." I explained. "Really, Dave? Very well, I should put that into my mind…" He said.
About thirty minutes later, Lemres signaled me and Schezo to come out from the spring. "*sigh* What is it, Comet Warlock?" Schezo asked. "Well, I'm glad you asked, Dark Mage. We are going to do what you like best, peepin' on naked girls." he said. "What?! I do not do that! Anyway, how though... won't we be easily caught?" he replied. "I agree, I know where this is going to go and I want no part in it. I do not want to be labeled as a pervert." I said. "Oh don't worry, I've got that planned out and covered. Ta-da, special candies!" We see three pieces of candy floating by him. "Tch. What makes them so special?" Schezo scoffed. "These are candies that make the one who eats them, invisible for a set amount of time." He elaborated. "Huh, so invisibility candies… where did you get this stuff anyhow?" I asked. "Oh, I made 'em myself, all thanks to my passion for sweets." He said. "I'll reluctantly try one, Comet Warlock…" Schezo cautiously reaches out for the first of the three pieces and eats it. "Meh, the flavor wasn't bad… wait, what's happening to my body?" He questioned. "Looks like it's working..." I said as I took the second piece. I ate it to find a fascinating taste within. "Hmm… this tastes like something sweet, but yet sour..." I worded my thoughts. Before long, I noticed that I can see Schezo now. "Hey, I can see you now, man." I said. "Huh, is this a side effect of the candy?" He asked. "Yeah it is, anyone who has eaten candy from the same batch can see each other." Lemres said. "That's awfully convenient, I like it… so uh… how much time do we have being invisible?" I questioned. Lemres takes the last piece and consumes it. "Hmm, from my batch... about forty-five minutes or so. Alright then, now let's take a place to watch from on their side of the springs." He stated. "I don't know… I'm still not sure about this…" I spoke, worried. "Well if we are invisible, Dave... then we shouldn't have anything to worry about. Those girls will never know that we were there and we'll make a clean getaway too." Schezo spoke rationally. "'Right you are, Dark Mage. Even when our invisibility runs out, it won't go away immediately… we'll just slowly turn back to bein' visible." He assured me. "Well okay, but if things get dicey and go to shit, I'm bailing out of this as soon as possible." I told him.
We hurdled over the barrier that separates the men and women, and rested ourselves on boulders nearby. Since we were now on the side that didn't allow us to be in, we needed to be quiet. We three decided that it would be best if we just whispered and be no louder than that. Meanwhile we saw the girls being a little rough with each other and giggled. Accord was in there too which surprised me, to which I saw those breasts of her. Considering that she was a few to several years older than me though, I thought to shift my focus on Ringo and Feli. "Aw… Feli's even more cute 'n cuddly when naked, but I can see you'll get jelly of me Dave, so I'll put it to rest." Lemres raved. "I won't lie, Arle's looking kind of desirable right now. She has a has a decent breast size and the way they just curve…" Schezo praises. "What about you, Dave? Who're you lookin' at?" Lemres asked me. "Ringo, she has quite the balance of both cuteness and sexiness." I told him. I made my eyes move over the entire spring, eventually landing to where Draco was. She was playfully caressing another girl's rack, it was Kassandra's. "I won't lie, miss... you have some great tits right there! *giggle*" She said enthusiastically. "Ah! What do you think that you are doing, you immature lass?!" She reacted. "Relax, I'm just comparing these here with mine…" Draco smiled. "Ugh stop, I feel like I'm being violated!" Kassandra pleaded. In a hushed voice, Schezo speaks. "Oh my fucking God, those bosoms are... heaven!" "Agreed, I just realized how sexy Draco really is." I said. Draco continued to mess with Kassandra and we sat there, nearly drooling from this hot interaction. "Isn't this a textbook example of how a porno starts off?" Lemres questioned. "I've seen my fair share of pornography, Comet Warlock. It's not exactly a textbook example, but it's certainly common." Schezo stated. "It's like that in my world too, at least in fictional form… don't ask how." I added.
I turned my head over to where Ess was, she looked to be uneasy. "Hey Ess, what's up?" Amitie asked her. "I dunno, I just have this really strange feeling… like we are being watched." She answered. "Aw come on, there's not a single outsider to be seen. How can you possibly think that?" Ringo wondered. "It's a gut feeling… a radar in my head is going crazy, seeming to sense that there are perverts around here!" She yelled. Me, Lemres, and Schezo heard that, making us feel like we'll get caught if we stayed like this. We reassured ourselves that the invisibility candies kept that problem in check for at least another twenty-five minutes. As long as they could not see us, we were fine. "Ugh, I'm getting paranoid, I'll search around for any possible hiding spots." Ess said. "Good luck with that then." Arle joked about. "Oh shit, stay silent for the meantime guys, she could come over here at any point." I alerted them. Just like that, for the next fifteen minutes, Ess searched for unwanted perverts. Thankfully, she did not discover us, only ended up frustrated and went back into the spring. We used the remainder of our invisibility well. Once we noticed that we started to materialize back into visible sight, we booked it. Lemres and Schezo successfully made it over the barrier and waited for me. I leapt, but messed up royally in the process. The force of my landing caused me to lose my half-assed grip. I fell, causing a loud thud to kick in. The girls noticed the noise quickly. "Wh-what was that?!" Raffina exclaimed. "It might be a pervert or two!" Ess yelled. "Oh dear, perverts here? I hope that they didn't see my bosom…" Accord said. "Shit! Help me guys!" I requested. "No way, I'm not getting pointed at as a pervert by the girls again." Schezo said. "Sorry Dave, you're on your own here." Lemres said to me. "Oooh, you guys suck…" I did not like how they betrayed me, but I also understood why. "The sound came from over here." Ringo stated. I feared the worst when I would be caught. Just as my invisibility ran its course, I quietly hid in a bush close by. They searched, inch by inch, making me pray in hope more and more with every passing second.
A few moments later, I felt a hand grab me by the shoulder tightly. "!" It was all over, they found me. More like one of them, Accord. "I believe that we found ourselves one of them…" She said to the girls. They all turned around to face me, most either looking angry or scared. I felt a level of uncontrollable rage emanating from Ess. She stomped to me and held me by my neck. "So, my instinct wasn't wrong…! You have a lot of explaining to do! What the fuck Dave?!" "Ack-! *choke* L-look, it's not what you think! I wasn't initially on board with doing this! You see, two others convinced me to join in it. Remember that pervert that I was telling you about Ess? He was one of the two, but he didn't formulate the method of watching you girls… that would be Lemres. Besides, even when I was "watching"... I only looked at Ringo and Feli for the most part. I wasn't watching you at all Ess, I wasn't interested in you because I already have two love interests." "Yeah right, why should I believe you? You could be lying to me for all we know Dave!" Ess argued. "No… I don't think he is lying. Dave is my student and a very honest one at that." Accord defended me. At that moment, Ess had let me go. "! Ms. Accord…" I looked up. "Of course, he was still peeping at the end of the day. I cannot let that slip by, so I'll give him a light punishment." She said. "P-punishment?!" I exclaimed. "Popoi, give Dave some much needed torment for his insolence." She directed her cat. "Very well… I'll make it quick and painless, meow." I saw Popoi becoming bigger, as well as scary to lay eyes on. This was what true fear seemed to be, this cat was a monster. With a rested paw on my head, Popoi started to grip me real hard. "Nrgh-!" I tried to get myself out of it with enhanced strength, but something seemed to hamper it into nothing. "Why... can't… I… break free…?!" I questioned. "Popoi suppresses magical power of specific casters, and you just so happened to be one. Although, you are powerful in a way, this suppression is extremely pressing… so much so, even you cannot use your spells at all." Accord explained to me. "Sorry kitten, nothing purr-sonal…" I begin to feel pain unlike anything I felt before or since. "AAAAAHRGHHH!" I screamed. Shortly after whatever the hell that was, I blanked out.
I woke up back by the men side changing station, laying on my back. I still had my towel wrapped around my waist, which I was relieved. "Urgh… damn that hurt… What time is it?" I asked myself. I searched for a clock. "8:00 P.M., shit. I hope my things are still here…" I soon see my clothes and phone were in the same place I had left them. "Phew, thank God." I dressed back and came back to my room to knock. I didn't have the key on me at the time. I usually had let Ringo hold on to it since I wasn't too responsible. She opened the door and saw me. "Oh good, you're still okay…" She said. "Wait, you're not mad at me Ringo?" I asked her. She shakes her head to my question. "No, I couldn't blame you for being involved in something stupid like that. You may be the Dave I know you as... but I understand that you are a guy. Young men have certain, inevitable vices. They get excited when seeing cute and beautiful girls. It's a natural thing, even though it was wrong. So… did… you see my body…?" she asked. "I won't be outraged by it, I just want to know what you think of it…" I wasn't sure what to say to her. "I did… I thought that you had… a lovely figure." I worded my thoughts. "Could you be… more specific?" She asked. "Um well, your body had the perfect proportions. Your legs, hips, and breasts, they all had great shape and size. *awkward laugh*" I exaggerated slightly. "I was waiting for you to say that…" She said, smiling. "Huh…? What do you mean… Ah!" She tugged me inside our room, locked the door and pushed me on to a bed. I laid there on my back, Ringo sat next to me with a certain look in her eyes. "So, how about we get to know our bodies a little more?" She seductively asked me.
I was put off by this, to put it into words. "Uh….. Ringo, what's this about?" I asked her, feeling awkward. "To be frank, I was and still am a bit jealous that Feli got the jump on you before I could Dave… but I'm not going to let that stop me." "Ringo, I've already climaxed from having sex with Feli. Unlike a girl, a guy like me has to find times to feel pleasure. We can't always be in a state of being fucked. Testicles are proof of that, something that females don't have. You see, continuous ejaculation puts a strain on these, so I have to make them rest up." I lectured. "Aw, you're no fun…" She said with puffed cheeks. "Look, we can still kiss if that's what you want…" I said. "Mmm… that could be... as juicy and delicious as an apple." She replied. We had gone through a ten minute kissing session. Through it all, it proved one thing, we still had love. "Maybe I should get in the shower now…" Ringo grabs my hand. "We should go in together, we both have seen ourselves naked today, so why not?" She requested. "Sure, might as well, things will go by quicker too." I approved. We entered in the bath, both naked, cleaning each other. "So… this is certainly an experience. I never thought that I would have one with a girl." I said as her face remained blushed. "I wanna ask you something Dave, how does it feel to have a dick?" "... How should I put this...? It's weird I'll admit, putting up with the fact that it sometimes decides to randomly erect. It makes it difficult to fall asleep, as well as causing other inconveniences." I explained. "At least guys don't have periods, those are so damn annoying…" Ringo passed along. "That's true…" I concluded. We ended our shower and prepared for bed. "This was a long day, but on the whole, I'm glad that it became that way." I told Ringo. "Me too." She replied. I turned the lights off and we slept in peace.
Author's Notes: Thus another long day day for Dave ends. Little does he know though, a chaotic event would take place in the early morning. What is this event exactly? Only time could tell the very truth of what was about to unfold. Next chapter, Chapter 14: What Happened?
