Season 3: Episode 3

Emerging from the changing room, Andrew smiled to himself, finishing tying his hair back in a ponytail.

'This is it, the fun starts here and what better way than to enjoy some swimming at the local pool.'

He had changed for the pool, now wearing a pair of light blue swimming jammers. They were tight naturally but still comfortable and offered good enough coverage. He wasn't the only one either as Mikey also emerged too, clad in black swimming jammers.

"C'mon Andy, let's go...our friends are waiting." He said cheerfully.

Andrew laughed lightly. "Not just our friends."

"True." Mikey agreed, his eyes lighting up.

The reason for that was simple, for there, approaching them, was Sophia, looking very beautiful in her pink strapless bikini, Mikey clearly couldn't take his eyes off her. Leaving the happy couple he went looking for Marissa. He spotted Eliza sitting talking with Laurel, the Mexican girl was clearly very confident in her body, wearing a black string bikini, in contrast to Laurel's dark blue one-piece swimsuit.

"No way?" Laurel was saying in shock. "Your dad didn't want you to know?"

Eliza shook her head. "No, he didn't count on me eavesdropping of course but still...it is scary."

Andrew bit his lip, feeling very sympathetic. Eliza had shared the danger she and her family were in with them.

It was partly why they insisted on doing their vacation plans in groups, to try and offer at least some incentive for whoever posed a threat to Eliza to stay back, to not draw attention to themselves by trying to attack her in a crowd.

'I just hope I...whoa, whoa, whoa…' Andrew began to think, only for his thoughts to trail off and his eyes to widen.

For he finally found Marissa as she grinned, approaching him, her golden blonde hair spilling around her almost bare shoulders as she looked amazing, even with her thick build, wearing a white sexy string bikini.

"Hey Andy, what do you think?" She asked playfully, even turning to let him see the back.

Andrew's eyes nearly bugged out of his head when he saw the thong bottoms, her buttocks being put rather cheekily on show.

"I-I-" He stammered before clearing his throat, blushing. "I love it, you look amazing, stunning."

She giggled at that and moved closer, kissing him, allowing their almost bare bodies to touch, reminding Andrew all too well of their first sexual experience together. He returned the kiss and the very happy couple went to join the others. Eliza and Laurel happily joined them in the water, along with Mikey and Sophia. Three of the remaining boys however were still seated poolside.

Those boys were of course Brian, in a red Speedo, Jamie in black swim trunks and Alden, who wore red trunks.

"I think this was a good idea." Jamie said as he watched the others.

Brian nodded. "Yeah, everybody's enjoying themselves, we'll be joining them soon and luckily, I think it's been great for Eliza."

Alden agreed. "That's right, it's hard for her, her family, but at least here, with us, she can have fun. I just wish it was as easy for the rest of the family...at the very least that Louis could've joined us."

Jamie nodded gravely, understanding what he meant. Suddenly both Brian and Alden cried out in shock as they were pushed into the pool. Jamie quickly moved back, getting to his feet and looking around, but then he saw the culprits, as did the boys as they surfaced and they all burst out laughed.

"Gotcha." Enid said with a wink at her boyfriend.

Both Brian and Beth were eyeing each other appreciatively, Beth loving the sight of Brian's red Speedo while he was enthralled by her light blue bikini. Enid meanwhile wore a one-piece swimsuit which was the same red colour as Alden's trunks.

"Look out boys." Beth remarked.

Enid laughed. "Yeah, incoming."

With that both girls jumped into the pool, joining their boyfriends.

Jamie laughed as he stood up, before looking around, noting that Carl was yet to join them, then he saw him and stopped. Just like with Andrew and Marissa, Jamie was standing starting in amazement at the sight of Carl in his unexpected swimsuit, namely a dark blue Speedo that seemed just that little bit too tight, at least in Jamie's eyes as he drank in the sight of Carl's practically exposed milky white skin, his lithe figure and the warm smile in his eyes as he brushed his long hair back with a hand and reached Jamie, taking his hand.

"Hey, ready to join the others."

"Huh." Was Jamie's eloquent reply before he quickly composed himself. "Oh yeah, sure...you look incredible.

Carl chuckled and they softly kissed before he said quietly. "What can I say, I wanted to give you a treat."

"Oh I'll say you did." Jamie remarked as his eyes slid up and down Carl's Speedo clad body again.

There was a moment, only to be ruined by Sophia splashing the pair with water.

"C'mon lover boys, get in, we're all supposed to be having fun in the water here." She said.

Jamie laughed. "She has a point.

Carl winked. "Then let's go."

With that they both jumped in to join the friends and soon the air was filled with the sounds of splashing water, excited teens and general pool activities as the happy couples frolicked in the water.

Andrew let out a relaxed sigh as he showed in the private stall in the changing room. He was one of the last to leave as the others had all had to go at varying times earlier. It seemed they had got lucky and had the pool all to themselves, as other people were doing other things with their vacation and the pool was booked solid for practically the rest of summer, so they had got in early, much to their relief. Right now, as far as Andrew knew, only Laurel and Eliza were waiting outside for Eliza's parents to pick her up. That left him removing his hair from the ponytail to wash it in the shower.

"Hey."

His eyes widened as he recalled Marissa was also still present, and was now in his shower stall, smiling naughtily at him.

"Marissa, what…?" He gasped, before grinning. "I know that look, you're not thinking of…"

Marissa just batted her eyelashes. "What if I am, I think you are too?"

She glanced down at the bulge in his jammers from where he was clearly aroused and how could he not be with her in her sexy bikini, with the promise of more. Without any hesitation their lips met as their hands began to explore each other's bodies, with Andrew wasting no time in finding the tie of Marissa's bikini top and deftly undoing it.

End of chapter, hope you enjoyed it, read and review please.
