All players are 18 or over.
"Look at this," Jason held out the ad in the back of their favorite Christian magazine. "This looks like the perfect place to celebrate God's works and commune with nature. It's reserved for those just about to embark on their lives after high school. Everyone is going to be our age and Christian."
Celeste looked at it. The photos were beautiful. Deep woods, beaches, hiking trails, and picnic areas. "Where is this? Oh, never mind I see it, Lake Ontario, upstate. Where are the pictures of the cabins?" she asked.
"Jason chuckled, "No cabins...I mean, there are the restrooms but we'd be tent camping."
"You're kidding, right? Sleeping on the ground? Who does that anymore?" the cute blonde asked. "And who would I be in the tent with?" She dreaded the concept of a half-dozen girls sharing a tent or cabin.
"Me. I mean we could get separate tents but we've known each other our whole lives and we've staved off all temptations." He wasn't just commenting as he'd had impure thoughts about his friend, seemingly more and more each week. He and Celeste had grown up next door to each other their birthdays just two days apart. He thought back to last month when he was with his friends. He'd just turned 18 and she was still 17 and his friends were riding him that he'd be going to jail if he 'tapped that,' whatever that meant.
He and Celeste had a pure relationship base on love, respect, and faith in Jesus. Sure, he had thoughts, after all, he is human and Celeste epitomized female beauty. He looked at her, the unwelcome thoughts entering his head. 5' 2" blonde, barely over 100 pounds. Long legs, narrow hips, and waist, then there was her best feature, or rather features. Her gravity-defying breasts. Even Father Murray commented on them once to him. 'Celeste Coffman could feed an entire nursery if she needed to with those God-given assets,' he'd said. His words seemed innocent enough, but Jason shuddered as he recalled the look on the older man's face. On the other hand, more than once he'd stopped himself from looking in her underwear drawer to find out her bra size. One of his friends swore she was a 34DD.
"We're going off to University in a couple of months surrounded by temptations we can barely imagine. You think we'll be so weak we can't just sleep next to each other?"
The cute blonde nodded, "So how long would we have to...sorry, how long is this for?"
"Six weeks, and look at this. Daily Bible classes and readings. Then there are hikes, scuba lessons, and well this one isn't great for me but sailboats you can take out. The entire place has over 3,000 acres!" His face was beaming, "and get this. Mom and dad said they'd pay for it, for both of us, as graduation presents."
Celeste looked at her boyfriend. She'd never seen him more excited so she slowly nodded, "Ok. You got me with the sailing. Do they also have power boats, you know for water skiing?" she asked.
Jason nodded, "They do. Damn, you do love your water sports. You can do all the water sports you want," he said innocently. This did not interest him as the one time she took him sailing, he leaned over the side throwing up the entire time...and she told him that was the calmest she'd ever seen.
Celeste wanted to laugh hearing water sports but kept a straight face. She was the innocent looking one, but her older sister had filled her in on the things she could be doing on her knees rather than praying. The day after she turned 18, Cherie had 'popped her cherry' with one of her toys, telling her that wasn't what made her a virgin. Getting rid of it now would make losing her real virginity that more enjoyable. Then she showed her videos of couples doing just about everything, some nice, others not so nice. She shuddered remembering the girls peeing on guys and guys peeing on girls. Who would do that? she wondered.
Her mind drifted to the other things her sister told her, promised her. She told her about boys licking between her legs and showed her videos of that. She wanted her face to look like those girls' faces. Girls sucking on hard penises as if they were enjoying a sugary treat. But it was the idea of the orgasm that captivated her. Cherie said she couldn't tell her about it it as there weren't any words capable of truly describing it and doing it justice.
"How will I know when I have one if you can't tell me what to expect?" she'd asked.
Claire laughed..laughed hard, "Oh, honey. Trust me, you'll know...you'll know!" she smiled.
For the first time, Celeste looked critically at Jason. He was the kindest, most decent human being she'd met. He was very religious never missing church, except during the quarantine. He still attended services remotely. He decided to save himself for marriage and assumed Celeste was on the same page. She knew she loved him but she wasn't sure how...she thought he was more like a brother than a boyfriend. Hearing water sports her mind again went to places he wouldn't understand or accept. Without realizing it she was looking at his lap and the outline of his penis.
She roused herself and smiled at the boy, "well sure. It sounds fun." The boating sounded fun and the hiking but she felt something like dread thinking about Bible reading. She believed in God but there was something creepy, something cultish about those who live and breathe it.

"Wow! It's even more beautiful than in the brochure," Jason said as they climbed out of the car.
