Chapter 13

Tina and I had come up with a cover story that we had met at the local gym, and she had offered me her room to rent when I was faced with living in the barracks and having to share the room with another guy. A little extra cash for her and some independence for me. That was as much as I told them, their wicked minds though cooked up all sorts of stories on how she had seduced me. I was given the nickname Cubby before our six weeks at home were up. Everyone from the junior officers to my chief, and the entire rest of the enlisted crew called me that.

I had to laugh. Man, there are a whole lot of worse things to be nicknamed than Cubby. Tina especially loved it.

After five weeks at home, Tina and I organized a backyard barbeque and invited Trent, Ollie, and Javier. It was just luck to find a Saturday when none of us had overnight duty. It was a little drizzly that day, as is to be expected in Florida on any given day, so I cooked outside, and we ate inside. Tina though, had planned her outfit for the sun and didn’t bother changing it. She wore a green halter top, with a plunge front bra and a pair of shorts that hugged her round ass very well. Her amazing cleavage was on full display and Trent and Ollie were constantly checking it out. Only Javier kept his gentlemanly cool.
