Chapter 212

There was muffled shouting coming from Cattie and Heather’s room as I dipped down to grab my book from ours. Part of me wanted to stay and try to listen in - it wasn’t so long ago that Cassidy and I had listened to the dull moans of the two of them that first day on the boat. Back before ... almost everything.

There was another part of me that wanted to knock on the door. Or, hell, kick it in. But I couldn’t do that.

For Cassidy, I would. But Cattie needed to make her own progress through this thing. She needed to make her own decisions. If I made those decisions for her, I don’t know if I could live with myself if things turned out wrong, and I wasn’t sure that Cattie wouldn’t resent me down the line.

Maybe she would anyways, but at least that was a risk I felt like I could take.

So I grabbed my book, closing the door to our cabin softly so I didn’t let on that I was nearby, and I dipped out the back through the living area and hopped the porch decks to the Singles Boat. I’d been expecting to find Leia and Ami in the living area but they weren’t there, so I went to the kitchen and grabbed a trio of water bottles for us before heading back to the cabins.

“Hey, Tiger,” Leia said from the bed as I knocked on Ami and Becca’s door and it opened, unlatched. She was still in her bikini top and cotton short bottoms.

“Hi, Robbie,” Ami said, smiling from where she was propped up at the head of the bed. “We decided with so much going on, maybe more privacy would be nicer.”

“You read my mind, ladies,” I said, shutting the door behind me. When I went to hand Leia her water bottle she pursed her lips similar to the way Cassidy would, and I gave her a little peck. When I knee-walked up the bed to Ami she did the same thing with a cute little smile, so I gave her one too.

“What are you reading, sunshine?” I asked Leia.

“Finishing this manga, then I have some stuff I want to read on my tablet.”

“Eugh,” Ami and I both made a disgusted noise at the same time.

“What?” she laughed. “Manga isn’t that bad.”

“Not the manga,” I said.

“The tablet,” Ami agreed.

‘Oh, whatever,” Leia laughed.

I sprawled on the bed with them and readied myself to crack my book open, but Ami cleared her throat. “So, there’s one rule I should tell you about reading time, Leia,” Ami said.

“What’s that?” Leia asked, raising an eyebrow and smiling.

“It’s, um ... clothing optional,” Ami said, biting the corner of her plush little lip nervously as she reached up and started to pull off the shoulder of her one-piece suit.

“Clothing optional, huh?” Leia asked. “Does that include Robbie?”

“It’s not a sexual thing,” Ami clarified. “Just a comfort one.”

That made me chuckle and I pulled off my tank top so I was shirtless. “Happy?” I asked.

“Mhmm,” Leia nodded with a grin, then reached back and undid the knot for her bikini top, pulling it off and revealing her smaller breasts to us. Ami peeled her suit down to her waist, revealing her larger ‘big anime titties’ and sighed softly as she rubbed them for a moment and then leaned back. “Better?” Leia asked.

“Yes,” Ami sighed. “The only problem with having them is carrying them around everywhere.”
