Chapter 10

I wake this time as she gets out of bed and slips into the bathroom. 5:30am. I really should go swim. When she comes out, she sits on the edge of the bed.

"Morning." She leans in slightly and I kiss her.

"Mornin'. You up kinda early."

"I was about to say the same of you. This is my regular time. I like to read the paper before I go to work."

"I usually swim uh couple miles 'fore school."

"A couple miles? How many laps is that?"

"One. I ain't in uh pool; it's open water."

"You're kidding." she looked genuinely shocked.

"Nope. Get up 'bout five, jump off the dock when the first boat leave, an' swim up an' down the property line. Take 'bout fifteen minutes if I'm slow."

"So then, shouldn't you be swimming around the boat now?"

"They won't let me. Too much liability if-n I drown or get ete. Best I can do is uh couple dozen laps ina pool."

"And you want to go swim, don't you."

I smile, "Kinda."

She kisses my cheek. "I'm going to the Lido deck for the breakfast buffet. You can join me later." She gets up and starts pulling out clothes for the day. "I think we're at sea all day today. So I have no plans."

"Well," I say as I dress and gather my things, "Ima meet you on deck and we'll figure something out." As I put on my watch, I notice the timer. "1 hour, 18 minutes. That good?"

She grins. "How many miles is that?"

"'Bout uh dozen." I put my arms around her waist and kiss her neck, "But sure-n-hell this more fun."

"Neck later. Swim now."

I grin all the way to the naked pool. I swim for the pleasure of it - I don't even bother to time my speed. After, I go back to my room. Beth and Alex were knocked out on opposite sides of the bed when I go into the shower and when I come out. They look like kids. Little kids. I climb in between them and they both turn in toward me.

I don't think I have ever been happier. I doze off.

I wake to Alex sucking my nipples. I run my fingers through his hair. He stops and puts his head on my shoulder.

"You said I could be in the middle, Sir." He whispers and slides his hand around my dick.

I did say that. I look at Beth who's still asleep. "Wake her or start without her?"

"Sir, trust me. Reach down there."

"What?" How many violations were in that sentence?

"Trust me."

I feel a bit queasy but reach between Beth's legs. She's wet - very wet.

"She wake up hornier 'en me. Seriously. She gonna love this."

"Supplies?" I ask.

He gets up and I am again stunned by just how well built he is. And he's only 16; he's likely to get bigger. He grabs a couple condoms and gets back into bed. I let him slid over me to get in the center.

Happily, he sucks me hard - which take like two minutes - then slips the sheath on me. Then he rolls over and I slid in hard. He gasps, shudders and groans. "Hang on." He hisses. I watch and kiss his neck as he puts on his own condom and pulls Beth to himself. She mews softly and pulls his hands to her breasts. She gasps loudly when he slides into her. She mutters something I can't make out and Alex nuzzles her neck. I could feel him moving inside her and match my pace to his. He moans deeply. I'm suddenly glad I spent the night with Barb because I realize that I'm not in a hurry to come. I reach but I can't get my hand down to Beth's slit. I move Alex's hand down and cup her breasts myself. She murmurs something and Alex replies my name.

"Iwannabeinamiddle." She sighs.

"You always ina middle." Alex whines back. I grin - I can't believe that they could screw and argue at the same time.

We screw slowly, leisurely; none of us were in a rush to wake up. Occasionally one of us groans or sighs and the others respond but otherwise we quietly fuck. It's sweet and sensual and I don't want it to end anytime soon - literally, I want to stay here all day and screw. I think I did doze off because I have this sense of making love to Barb and Alex and Kai and Beth at the same time and yet simultaneously making love to each of them separately. It's a weird and wonderful sensation broken by Alex's arm reaching around my head.

"Harder, dude." He whispers, "Fuck me."

I let go of Beth, get both my hands on his hips and try to shove in hard only to find that I'd soften a bit as I drifted to sleep. "You want it hard?" I whisper.

"Oh yeah." He sighs.

"Make Beth beg." I bit his ear and he hisses. About a minute later, I can hear Beth mewing softly as Alex's fingers begin working her over. Soon, she's crying out, Alex was pumping her steadily and I'm banging him hard. Our quiet all-day screw rapidly becomes a race to see who could finish loudest, fastest.

It's Alex on both counts but I'm not far behind him. Beth stretches lazily, "Hmmm. Mornin' Peter. How's Barb?"

I feel another grin spread across my face. "What makes you think I seen Barb?"

"'Cause you been gone since like noon yesterday which means either you got lost or you got laid."

"'Sides, Peter," Alex snickers, "you reek uh pussy."

"Jealous?"

He shrugs, "You the Dom."

"You say that one more time, I'm never spanking you again." I try to sound serious but Alex rolls his eyes.

Slowly, we manage to get up, shower, and dress. There was actually food left on the Lido deck buffet. I grab a plate of it and find Barb at a table with an umbrella. I put my plate down then move her book out of the way and kiss her softly, "Mornin'." I give her book back and sit. Beth and Alex follow shortly and sit with us as if invited.

"Hey, Barb," Beth says after studying the list of daily activities, "are you into fashion stuff? There's a fall fashion's show today at noon and I just as soon not go with either uh these two."

Barb looked at Beth for a moment as if trying to decide how much of her vacation to spend babysitting. "Alex an' I could go find the rock wall if you wanna go." I smile at Barb, "I could almost live without you for an hour or two."

"Or," Alex reaches around and bats Beth in the head, "Beth could go ta the stupid fashion thing alone an' I could go watch the soccer matches. They gotta sports lounge downstairs."

Beth elbows Alex back, "I'm trying ta be nice, idiot." She hisses not nearly as quietly as she wanted.

"You cutin' in on his action." Alex undertones back.

"So, Barb," I cut over both of them, "would you rather go to the fashion show with Beth or have a lunchtime roll with me?"

"Or, I could make my own plans and let you kids run off on your own." She flips another page.

"True. We could do what you want. That's fine."

"I want to spend the day catching up on my reading. Quietly."

"Ok." I shrug.

"Alone."

"Barb," I suddenly realize her issue. "Ok. You spend the day alone, we scatter to the four winds. We'll see you at dinner. Or not. It's all good."

"Really." She doesn't believe me.

"Really. I'd rather spend the day with you," Beth and Alex both snicker. "Quiet. But if you want a day to yourself, I'll go away for a while." I turn her chin to me, "Hey, if you want the rest of the cruise to yourself, that's cool too. I can vanish and take these two with me."

Her eyes dart down and look at my hand but I don't move it. "I think you think you are older than you are."

"I think you think I'm a child. I'm not. I am young, but not a child." I stand up and collect both my and Barb's breakfast dishes. "We're in cabin A151. Leave me a message if you want to see me later. Alex. Now."

Alex gets up and grabs his remaining breakfast. Beth follows with something of a glare at me. I don't look back as I drop the dishes in the appropriate bin and head back to our cabin. Alex and Beth follow silently. I hate admitting it but I love it when they do that. I turn suddenly and face them. "Have I told you how much I love it when you fall in line?"

Alex actually blushes but Beth glowers. "I don't fall in line, you pushy, overbearing jackass." She marches off. I shrug; I'll make it up to her later.

"You," I look at Alex, "on the other hand do fall in line. An' you been real good on this trip."

"Good enough?" He's almost shaking with anticipation.

"More than good enough." I kiss him lightly. "I'm gonna go get uh couple sodas. You go see what you can find in our room."

"Yes, sir." He doesn't run but he moves like he's got a purpose.

I find Beth at the lounge I go into to get the sodas. "Don't come back for a while; I'm gonna get some of the pushy overbearing asshole-ness out mah system, Ok?"

She looked away and shrugs, "Ok."

"I'm sorry. I don't mean ta be uh jerk. I yank his chain an' just keep catchin' you in the way."

"I know."

"Forgive me?"
