When they arrived below deck, Bella excused herself to use the restroom and Carlisle headed to the kitchen to prepare lunch. Opening the refrigerator, he gathered everything Bella would need to make herself a sandwich and a side salad and set it out on the kitchen counter. Debating if he should make one for her, he decided against it, knowing that she may appreciate some say in the matter. Content to wait until Bella returned, he moved to take a seat on the couch, enjoying the view of the ocean.

Standing in the bathroom, Bella stared at herself in the mirror. When they had left for their trip, she had been extremely anxious about what awaited her. Now, although she still feared the pain and vulnerability that she would soon experience, she also found that she was looking forward to what was to come. Thinking about the sensations that Carlisle had created in her with just his fingers over her clothes, she shivered to think about how good it would feel when there were no barriers between them. Shaking her head to clear her thoughts, she quickly used the restroom and washed her hands and headed back towards the kitchen.

Finding an array of sandwich and salad fixings laid out on the counter, she smiled, "Thanks, Carlisle, for preparing lunch." "You're welcome, Bella. I thought about making you a sandwich and salad, but with my luck, I would have chosen the wrong toppings." He smiled. "No, this is great, thanks." Bella said sincerely as she made herself a oven roasted chicken sandwich and a side salad with french dressing.

"Ah, see, it's good that I waited for you. I would have guessed Italian dressing and roast beef." He teased. Bella smiled at him and shook her head dramatically as she headed towards the table to eat her lunch. Rising from his seat on the couch and moving to join her, Carlisle took a seat across from her at the table. "So, Bella, I thought that perhaps after lunch, it might be fun to go for a quick swim. Would that be alright with you?" Carlisle asked her.

Looking up from her salad, Bella shrugged "I've always worried that something will try to eat me." Chuckling, Carlisle reached his hand across the table, grasping hers. "Well, Bella, while I can attest that your blood is very appealing, I can assure you that you have nothing to fear. I am much faster and stronger than any other creature in this ocean. No harm will come to you." he reassured her. Bella nodded and smiled before speaking. "Alright then, as long as you promise to protect me from the creatures of the deep". "You have my word." Carlisle smiled, chuckling at her response.

After she had finished eating, Carlisle took her plate and washed it, setting it out to dry. Moving towards Bella who was now standing enjoying the view through one of the large picture windows, he wrapped his arms around her from behind and pulled her close to him. "Ready to get wet?" he whispered huskily into her ear. Bella felt her knees go weak as the growing need in her lower abdomen reminded her just how ready she was. Carlisle smiled at her reaction, holding her in his strong arms. He was quite pleased at the success his verbal foreplay was having as he sensed a fresh wave of desire move through her. He knew that the more aroused Bella was before things really progressed, the better it would be for both of them.

Once Bella was steady on her feet again, Carlisle grabbed some towels and they headed for the main deck. She watched, as if in slow motion, Carlisle pulled his t-shirt up and over his head. It was as if she was staring at a Greek God. His lean and muscular physique and toned abdominal muscles nearly made her whimper with need. She found herself beginning to fantazise about what it would feel like to run her fingers over his firm muscular chest, trailing them lower across his abdomen before making her way towards the V that ended beneath the waistline of his board shorts. She wondered what he would look like beneath them...what it would feel like to touch him in the most intimate of ways.

Bella blushed, suddenly embarrassed by her lustful thoughts. Blinking a few times in an attempt to clear her mind, she glanced up from his lower body and sheepishly met Carlisle's gaze. "Bella, I think you're still a bit overdressed." Carlisle smiled knowingly, walking towards her. Having been caught up in her ogling, she had forgotten to remove her shorts. "Let me give you a hand with those." he murmured, kneeling in front of her and reaching for the button on her shorts with his fingertips. Breath catching in her throat, Bella's muscles went rigid. "Shh, relax, sweetheart. I'm just going to remove your shorts. You will still have your bikini bottoms on."

Bella nodded and took a steadying breath, reminding herself that this was Carlisle and he would take care of her. Satisfied as he heard Bella's heart rate slow and her muscles relax, Carlisle unbuttoned her shorts and, dragging his fingertips lightly along her skin as he went, peeled them down her legs. Bracing herself on Carlisle's shoulder, Bella stepped out, removing them completely. Carlisle took a moment to appreciate the beauty before him.

Standing in front of him in just a bikini, Bella was striking. Still crouched in front of her, he placed his hands gently on her hips and moved in to place a tender kiss on her clothed sex. Inhaling the intoxicating scent of her arousal, Carlisle felt his dick grow hard with need. "Carlisle..." Bella whispered, trembling. "Trust me." Carlisle murmured against her skin. Moving his hands to her thighs, Carlisle teasingly caressed the sensitive skin there. Sensing how unsteady Bella was becoming on her feet, Carlisle grabbed a beach towel and laid it out on the sun pad next to them.

Placing an arm behind Bella's knees and one on her mid-back, he scooped her up bridal style and laid her down on the towel. His body hovering over hers, Carlisle murmured "Now, Bella, remind me again what you said before lunch. Something about needing... more?" Bella nodded, breathing ragged, "yes...please." she whimpered. "I think that can be arranged" he purred in her ear before his hands moved to cup her breasts, massaging them gently as he once again began to toy with her nipples.

"I promised you a dip in the ocean. Are you sure you don't wish to go swimming first?" Carlisle murmured teasingly as he continue to pinch and flick her aching peaks. "No... please... swimming later..."Bella stuttered, gasping at the feel of his hands on her. Smiling at her reaction, Carlisle spoke again "alright then, if you're certain that you don't mind waiting."

Arching into Carlisle's hands Bella's body was begging for more. Knowing it was time to start moving things along, Carlisle spoke softly to her. "Bella, sweetheart, please open your eyes" Carlisle asked her. She did as he requested, and as her eyes met his, he could see the mixture of emotions there as she gazed back at him. "I would like to remove your bikini top. I know this makes you anxious, but I promise that you have nothing to fear" Carlisle stated. Biting her lip and trembling from her nerves, Bella replied with a shaky voice "Okay, Carlisle." He gave Bella a reassuring smile before reaching behind her back to untie her bikini.

Once he had finished doing so, he gently pulled it away from her body, setting it off to the side. Reflexively, Bella's hands moved to cover her breasts. Placing his hands over hers, Carlisle whispered "Bella, your beauty is overwhelming. Please don't cover yourself." Blushing, Bella nodded and laid her hands at her sides. "That's it." Carlisle murmured as he moved over her body and placed a tender kiss on her lips.

Deepening the kiss, their tongues danced as Carlisle softly placed his cool hands over Bella's bare chest. Gently, he began to massage her breasts, examining them as he went. He knew that the more he could complete his examination in a non-clinical way, the less anxious Bella would be. When he was satisfied that all was normal, he teasingly brushed the pads of his thumbs over her nipples. Breaking the kiss, Bella gasped at the sensation. It was so much more intense without the barrier of her bikini top.

Feeling his dick twitch at her response, Carlisle leaned down and purred in her ear, "such a responsive good girl. I'm going to have so much fun with that." Bella moaned at his words. Carlisle was always so polite and gentlemanly. There was something about hearing him talking dirty to her like that that she knew was going to be her undoing.

Taking both of her nipples between his fingers again, he rolled and pinched them until they were erect and begging for attention. Then, before she could react, he flicked his cool tongue across the sensitive nub of her left breast. Bella whimpered at the feel of his cool tongue against her warm skin. She felt like a coil was being wound tightly in her lower belly. "Carlisle...please" she begged, dizzy with need. Carlisle continued, circling her rosy buds languidly with his cool tongue.

"I'm going to give you more, sweet girl." Carlisle said huskily before sliding his hand into her bikini bottoms to cup her heat. Eyes shooting open, Bella jolted, attempting to push away from his hand. Carlisle placed his other hand on her abdomen, holding her in place. "Shh, easy Bella, relax and trust me." Carlisle moved his fingertips to her clit, increasing the pressure of his touch, he began to rub slow circles over it. Keeping the pressure and circular motion with his thumb, he began to stroke her folds.

"Oh my God.. Carlisle.. so intense.. I can't.. what is happening to me?" Bella stammered. "Let yourself feel, sweetheart." He coaxed. The unfamiliar sensation continued to build in Bella's core. Just when she felt her inner walls begin to quiver, Carlisle relented his onslaught of her swollen nub, softly stroking her, only to begin circling her clit again once her muscles had calmed. Four times Carlisle edged her closer to orgasm, only to back off right before it overtook her.

"Carlisle!" Bella cried out, "Please!" she pleaded with him for release. Carlisle began to circle and rub her clit faster, not relenting as he drove her higher. Bella moaned when she realized that he wasn't stopping this time. Soon her inner walls began to tighten rhythmically, her whole body tensing as shockwaves moved through her. Continuing his steady movements on her throbbing clit, Carlisle helped her ride out her very first orgasm.

Breathing ragged and eyes closed, Bella's awareness of her surroundings slowly returned. She felt Carlisle's cool fingers caressing her abdomen where his hand previously held her in place. When she opened her eyes, she smiled shyly at Carlisle, suddenly feeling embarrassed by their actions and the fact that the top half of her body was exposed. Sensing her anxiety, Carlisle moved to grab Bella's bikini top, handing it to her so she could re-dress. Thankful for his actions, Bella quickly sat up and put her top back on before speaking.

"Thank you, Carlisle... that was...wow" Bella said timidly, glancing up at him. She had pulled her knees up and wrapped her arms around them in an effort to cover more of her exposed skin. Carlisle gave her a kind smile "how are you feeling, Bella?" he asked her. "I'm good... I think. I had no idea it was physically possible for something to feel that good." Carlisle chuckled "We're just getting started sweetheart. You will have experienced a whole new world of pleasure before our trip is through." Bella blushed and bit her bottom lip.

"Now, how about that swim?" Carlisle inquired with a note of humor in his voice. "Umm, sure, that sounds good. Let me just um... I think I need a few human minutes." "Ah yes, it's normal to feel the need to use the restroom after an orgasm, Bella. There is no need to feel embarrassed about that. Feel free to take all of the time you need. I'm going to prepare a few things below deck."

Swallowing hard, Bella nodded, wondering what it was that he was planning to prepare. "Thanks, Carlisle. I will just meet you back here when I'm done then?" She asked him. Nodding, Carlisle smiled "Yes, that sounds great, sweetheart."

As Bella headed towards the bathroom, Carlisle walked quickly to the state room to prepare everything for later in the day. Grabbing the suitcase from the closet, he opened it and collected the lubricant, gloves, and speculum that he would need to complete Bella's pelvic examination. He also grabbed some clit sensitizing gel, and a couple of other non-penetrative toys. He knew that he needed to be careful not to break her hymen before they engaged in intercourse. He slipped them inside the drawer on the nightstand next to the bed before putting the suitcase back in the closet. Once he had done so, he headed back to the main deck to meet Bella for their swim, fantasizing about how fun it was going to be to educate Bella on the wonders of physical intimacy over the next few days.

After Bella finished in the restroom, she met Carlisle back on the main deck. "Welcome back, sweetheart." he smiled at her. "There is a sandbar about a mile west of here. It is shallow enough for both of us to stand and will make a great swimming spot. While it's a bit too far for you to swim, I can easily swim there with you on my back. Are you comfortable with that?" Bella nodded and smiled shyly at him. "Sure, Carlisle. That sounds great." "Wonderful. I will warn you the water can be a bit chilly, but once the initial shock wears off, you should be fine. Since it's unseasonably warm this summer, it's not cold enough to be dangerous. Whenever you're ready, you can climb on my back and we will head that way."

Kneeling down in front of her, Carlisle waited for Bella to climb on his back. Climbing on and wrapping her legs around his torso and her arms around his neck, Bella spoke "Alright, I'm ready." "Hold your breath and hold on tight, sweetheart." Carlisle said before running and jumping off of the side of the boat. Bella did as he asked and when they hit the cold water, the initial temperature shock sent shivers throughout her body, causing her to break out in goosebumps. When they rose back up to the surface, Bella took a deep breath as her body adjusted to the temperature of the water. Moving as quickly as he could while maintaining Bella's safety, Carlisle effortlessly swam towards the nearby sandbar.
