“I made a reservation for all of us at 7:00 p.m. in the main restaurant,” Lennon announces. “They’re serving all the Christmas fixings.”

With all the fun we are having I keep forgetting about the holiday.

We head toward the water cave, all of us soaking wet. The place offers us towels and the girls strip down to their bikinis. Briar is back in that black string bikini of hers. My eyes roam over every inch of her body.

Levi jumps in the water first. “Guys, it’s warm. Fuck, I was so worried my cock would snap off,” he announces to everyone.

We all laugh, but it is a relief the water is warm. We are given snorkels and we all head into the water and check out the little fish swimming beneath us.

Taylor lets out a loud scream and we all freak out, but then we realize it was Hawk who grabbed hold of her foot under water. There are different tunnels to venture through and I motion for Briar to follow me away from the group. I notice Hawk did the same thing with Taylor on the last turnoff, and I wouldn’t mind some alone time with her.

“I hope we don’t get lost,” she says as we make our way through the dark cave. The water is crystal clear and warm, and her blue eyes match the color.

“You’re safe with me,” I assure her.

“I’m in trouble with you,” she states. Her words ring true for me too.

“Nothing wrong with a little trouble, Buttercup.” I loop my arm around her waist and pull her into me. My gaze narrows on her plump lips. “Have you ever had sex in a water cave?”

“No,” she giggles. “Have you?”

“Nope. There’s a first time for everything,” I reply.

Our lips smash together. In the water it’s easy for her to wrap her legs around my waist and hold on.

“What if someone comes this way?” she asks, breaking the kiss.

“Then we give them quite a show,” I say, locking lips with her again. From there everything happens in a blur of lust. Her hands running over my shoulders and chest. Her need to press her center against my cock. I lower my shorts enough to take my cock out. I’m not taking them off in fear of losing them. I move her bikini to the side and guide myself inside her. That initial feeling of sliding inside her feels like heaven. Everything gets intense from here. Our need to come, the hungry way we kiss. I place my hands on her ass and help her ride my cock fast and hard. I grunt and she moans. We get so loud we hear an echo and that scares her and her eyes shoot open.

“It’s fine,” I say sucking on her lower lip. That seems to appease her and we go back to grabbing at each other, using our bodies to grind harder against one another. The fire blazes between us as we both fall over the edge until we are breathless. Our ragged breaths sound loud in the silence of the cave. In the distance we hear our friends talking. I look into her eyes, confused about her and what’s happening between us. I’ve had plenty of sex in my life but it was about getting off. This with Briar is different. Being inside her feels right. It’s a feeling I’ve never had before.

“You good?” I ask her. Going bareback has been like a dream come true.

“Yes, but we keep on having unprotected sex. You aren’t with anyone else, are you?” she asks. I see the vulnerability written all over her face. She doesn’t trust easily. I’m guessing because of how her parents have treated her.

“I wouldn’t do that to you. I’m not a cheater or a liar,” I assure her. “Besides, I’m kind of addicted to your pussy right now.”

She laughs and smacks my shoulder. She moves off me.

“We should get back to the group if we can figure a way out of here.”

We head back to the group. Everyone is laughing and just having a good time. When we get to the end of the cave, we all get out of the water and dry off. We cab back to the hotel and take showers in our rooms before dinner.

I’ve got a towel around my waist when I leave the bathroom. Levi is waiting to get into the bathroom to shower.

“So you and Briar are hot and heavy,” he says, and he waits for my reaction.

“Nah, it’s chill, bro.” I smack his shoulder.

“Dude, we all heard you guys in the cave,” he informs.

“Shit.” I don’t have something better. “She’s a cool girl.” I shrug.

“She isn’t the type of girl to get around. She’s guarded and careful.” I get that he’s being a good friend to her. He’s been working with her for years.

“We spoke about what’s happening between us, and we agreed that it’s a vacation fling,” I explain to him.

Still, he looks worried. “Okay, bro. I’ve never seen you this invested in a girl before.”
