A Few Stolen Days CH. 01: The Hot Tub
The afternoon's drive had been glorious with a warm sun, blue skies and just the right temperature so that the loose knit shirts and short that Travis and Brandi changed into felt comfortable.
The day had passed driving through the countryside, often choosing the smaller side roads through out of the way small towns. They had stopped and shopped, buying nothing but holding hands as they looked through dusty collections of things once prized but now in assorted boxes and tables.
They knew there could be no mementos of this day to be explained to spouses on return to their other life, but they knew too that their mementos of today would be as tangible and anything chosen to sit on a shelf and collect dust.
They drove curled up with each other in the front seat like teenagers who couldn't get enough of just touching. Holding hands or with hands resting on each others thighs. Not particularly sexual in their contact, but never far from the exquisite sensuality of the moment.
Travis loved to walk with his arm around Brandi's shoulder or tucked under her arm holding her close. She never seemed hesitant to keep the close contact even in those moment when without being obvious to others who might be watching he would stand behind her and mold himself to the firmness of her bottom... Reaching around with both arms in a sheltering but casual embrace. He enjoyed enveloping her. His arms both surrounding her and sheltering her. Feeling her settle back into him knowing that the contact was continuous from his groin to his chin which rested in the softness of her hair. And when he knew he could without arousing her attention, he loved to let his nose be buried in her hair catching the scent of her and the feel of her.
As they rode, she would cuddle up under his right arm, half turning toward him. He knew she was watching him even when he couldn't see her eyes and he loved the warmth of her soft breasts moving against him in regular breaths.
The had stopped periodically during the day to nibble rather than feast. In one little wide spot in the road they shared a greasy foot long Coney at the drive in. It appeared to be the best cuisine in the small community. Supper was a quiet little restaurant before the even rush... Or perhaps just after the early supper crowd. In may of these places one wouldn't have been surprised to see the streets rolled up at dark.
They could have driven hard to reach the cabin the first day, but somehow the day was perfect as it was and they choose to stop at a nice motel on the outskirts of a larger town. It was dark as they stopped and even though there was little traffic at the motor lodge, it seems to be an inviting place. As they checked into the rather plain room, the manager mentioned the amenities including a hot tub.
Travis asked the manager what time it closed and the older gentleman smiled, "I turn the lights off at 9 pm, but there's not lock on the gate. It's usually pretty quiet and you and the Mrs. are free to use it as you please."
When he pulled the car to the room, Brandi asked why he was grinning and Travis simply said, "I think we will enjoy this place."
It was almost 9 before they got their luggage in the room and settled just a bit. Travis said, "Why don't we stroll the grounds before it gets too dark."
Brandi looked at him funny and knew he had something on his mind, but regardless, where he went she wanted to be with him.
They walked the path around the rooms and found a privacy fence with the hot tub sign. She grinned at Travis, "Oh? Is this what you wanted me to see?"
They entered the gated area and discovered a very nicely landscaped circle with a pool of clear steaming water. The hot tub was not over six feet wide and the whole enclosure hardly more than twice that.
As they stood there holding hands the manager opened the gate and said, "I see you have found it."
He asked if they wanted him to leave the lights on... Then he paused and said, "Here let me show you... Here are the lights and here is the timer for the hot tub." And with a wink he added, "The timer works without the lights having to be on."
We told him that if we were interested, we could find our way and thanked him. He walked off grinning and Brandi looked at Travis and said, "I think he was suggesting something don't you?"
Travis didn't answer her... He just leaned over and kissed her and they made their way back to the room.
They shuffled their traveling bags, not having even bothered to carry in their suitcases. Brandi was rummaging through her bag as Travis reached up and put his hands on her shoulders and gently massaged the tightness of her muscles that run up to her neck. She stopped as if in a trance and allowed her head to sag forward letting his fingers do magic on her neck. She finally leaned her head back and leaned into him and turning her head she kissed him lightly on the lips.
"Think we need to check out the hot tub?" she said quietly.
"Wanna skinny dip?" Travis replied with a tease. What he got was Brandi sticking her tongue out at him in a mocking rebuttal.
She pulled a while one piece swim suit from her bag and without saying a word went into the bathroom, closing the door.
Travis wanted to follow her... To watch her strip her clothes off and savor her nakedness, but she had defined her boundaries and he was man enough to respect her. He brought out his swim suit and started stripping too.
He kept his knit shirt on as he shed his shorts and undershorts. He noticed that on the back of the bathroom door there was a full sized mirror and he stopped for a moment to see his own reflection. His shirt covered most of his manhood and cast what wasn't covered in shadow but there was no question that he was a man and he was proud. He was not hard, but he was full and he hung down. He slipped his suit on and as he pulled it up, the bathroom door opened. He was just a bit embarrassed to have Brandi know that he had been looking at himself.
As she walked into the room, he caught his breath. The suit was very flattering, and very revealing. He knew the outline of her nipples and he had no trouble in identifying them through the suit. The dusky darkness of her areolas were set off with the whiteness of the suit and her nipples were like pencil erasers... Pointy and stiff. His eyes followed the suit down and the high thigh cut of the sides drew his attention to the vee that disappeared between her legs. He wondered if she hadn't been shaved if he would have been able to identify the outline of her pubic hair. There between her legs was the gentlest of hint of the cleft that hid her womanhood.
He realized that he was staring at her... And she did too. She motioned with her eyes toward his own crotch, "You like what you see?"
She laughed but he was horse with his own excitement and realize that he was getting close to "half staff". He picked up a towel and held it as if to hide himself. Brandi walked to him and with her eyes never leaving his she said, "I am so flattered!" and kissed him.
If she had lingered any longer, he would have had her then and there. His ears were buzzing with the touch and smell and proximity and he would have stripped her bathing suit from her shoulders. But she reached for her towel and as she reached the door she turned as she flung her towel over her shoulder, "Coming?"
He laughed at the irony.... Yes, he was very close to coming, but he followed her out the door and down the path.
