for whatever passing fancy I might have. It's pretty great, I'm not gonna lie.”
I shake my head. “You won't hear any argument from me. Come on, let's go out to meet the girls.”
I slip on my sandals and head out to the natural hot spring, shivering at the cold air. We're outside here, surrounded by several natural steaming pools and steely gray skies above.
I look around and don't see Pippa or Kalindi, so I take a spring at random, dipping my toe in. I'm satisfied with how hot it is, so I walk to the bench and slip off my shoes, noting that there are fresh towels hanging on a towel warmer above the bench.
I turn around and check what Finn is doing but he is off looking into the distance, doing whatever it is that Finn does. So I climb into the hot spring, making a funny face at the incredibly hot water as I slide in.
I breathe out for a minute, circulating a little. The water is a little higher than my bellybutton, with some stone benches on one side of the little pool that I'm in. Finn joins me soon after, making the same face that I did when he gets in.
“Woo, this is really hot.”
“That it is, little brother. I'm starting to like it though. Especially if you duck down and sit so that the water covers your shoulders? That's pretty much where it’s at, as far as I'm concerned.”
I swim over to the other side of the pool and sit on the stone bench, breathing a sigh of relaxation. That's a moment at which I hear Pippa talking, laughing a little as she coaxes Kalindi outside.
“Come on. Seriously, there's no one out here…” Pippa steps out, gesturing to a hidden person. My eyes dip down from Pippa's curtain of glorious hair to her barely there bikini. I can see practically everything, her boobs, her hips, her ass…
When she turns to face me, I can see her nipples standing out from the tiny black triangles of fabric over her to it. I bite my lip appreciatively. She sees me and sees the look on my face. She makes eye contact with me and reddens, laughing.
She turns back toward Kalindi. “Okay, you may want to bring a towel out or something. Granted, it's only our men that can see us but…”
Finn settles then on the other end of the bench, about ten feet away from me. Pippa finally manages to coax Kalindi out of the changing room. Kalindi is small and dark-haired, a young British girl of Middle Eastern descent. Her arms and legs are shapely, I'll give her that. But if there is more to see, I have no idea. Because she shuffles out to the pool, clambering in and removing her towel inch by inch as she does.
Not my Pippa though. She kicks her shoes off and smoothly descends into the water, her smile bright. “Oh, this is nice. How have I never been here before?"
She wades over to where I'm sitting, taking a seat beside me. Kalindi looks a little lost and out of place, her gaze starting from the empty seat between Pippa and then to the empty pools around us.
“Are you sure that we are not each supposed to get our own pool?"
“You are welcome to get another pool if you want. But that will require getting out of this pool, which I assume will be freezing cold. So make your choice carefully.” Pippa winks at her.
Kalindi eventually settles into the last seat on the bench, glancing at Finn like he is about the most attractive thing in the world. I roll my eyes. Finn is a daredevil like I am, but he also loves to travel and seems very worldly. He attracts a certain kind of girl, and apparently Kalindi is one of those. Not that I particularly care, because I have a hard time paying attention to anyone that isn't Pippa.
“This is so nice,” Pippa sighs. I can't wait to get my hands on her. So I beckon her over.
“Wait until you have been massaged while you are in the water.” Turning her around with gentle hands, I start rubbing her neck and her shoulders. Pippa makes the most contented sort of sounds. That in itself really fills up some missing part of me that is been empty for too long. I'm not getting any gratification from this exchange other than the amazing feeling of a very wet Pippa under
