Some years earlier...
Alyss and her roommate Valerie sat in lounge chairs not far from the pool, they and the others living in the student apartment complex enjoying a weekend away from school. Both wore bikinis. Alyss a pink one, tied onto her young body by strings dangling off the top and bottom parts; Valerie a jet black, skimpier outfit than her friend. Both had the boys, and some of the girls there, checking them out as they passed by.
Alyss didn't notice that, knowing she and her friend would be checked out like all the other girls there. Instead, she watched Darius get out of the pool.
He raised himself out. Through her sunglasses, she watched him flex his arms and chest as he rose up, the water upon his skin glistening in the sun. His young, moderate athletic build gave him a fit look. Alyss thought it complemented the dark, wavy hair atop his youthful face and the little bit adorning his chest.
God,
Alyss thought, unconsciously sticking the tip of her finger in her mouth, watching him walk towards a chair near the water.
That's so hot.
She crossed her legs, that ever so subtle feeling she would get below her clean shaven mound coming back.
Seeing him in class, around campus, studying, talking about computers and graphic designing or when hanging with friends was one thing. This was another. The water dripping off him. His soaked shorts hugging his hips and crotch.
"You need to stop eye fucking him and go for it," Valerie said, noticing how Alyss stared at Darius, no doubt mentally undressed him as he stopped and dried off.
Alyss was doing just that as she continued to smile, but didn't take her eyes off him.
"I'm waiting for him to make the first move," Alyss said, the tip of her finger still in her mouth.
Valerie turned and let out a huff. "You might be waiting a while. And some other girl might beat you to him."
"Like you maybe?" Alyss asked, watching Darius run his hand through his wet hair.
"Not my type. At least for dating," Valerie said also watching him. "I might fuck him butβ"
"Val!" Alyss spouted turning towards her.
Valerie gave her a mischievous smile. "Don't worry. I'll save him for you. Because friend," she paused, pointing at Darius, "you really need to get laid."
Both let out a small girlish giggle, then looked back over at Darius. He saw them and smiled, giving both ladies a small wave.
Valerie turned and looked at Alyss. She noticed that all her friend did was give him a glance with a subdued smile, then look down at her feet, attempting to appear uninterested. Turning back towards Darius, she gave him a small wave, then motioned him toward her.
Alyss looked up to notice him slowly walking their way. A sudden shutter of anticipation shot through her. She looked at Valerie and the roguish smile on her face.
"Don't say I never help a friend out," Valerie said. "And why let that bikini you have on go to waste."
"What?" Alyss spouted, then turned back to see Darius almost upon them. She took in his smile and dark stubble surrounding his lips and cheeks. Then she looked down at his slender abs, below which rested his still wet shorts. Alyss took particular notice of the bulge thereon.
With teenage shyness, she looked away, reaching down for a textbook next to the chair. Having planned on doing some studying, the book had gone untouched. Darius' almost naked body distracted her all afternoon.
"How you girls doing?" Darius asked as he stopped between the two chairs.
Valerie looked at him. "Catching some rays. Aren't we Alyss?"
Both Valerie and Darius looked at her.
Having heard everything they said, Alyss looked up from her now open book and gave Darius a smile. "Yeah. Just catching some sun. And you?"
"Same thing. Wana get away from school for a bit, ya know."
Alyss soaked up his young voice, but said nothing. She just stared at him.
Valerie noticed the look on her face and her silence.
"Plus, this gives Alyss a chance to try out her new bikini," Valerie said.
Darius gave her a look, then glanced back at Alyss. "Wow. It looks hot on you Alyss."
His compliment added to her already aroused body. She felt her nipples harden as they pressed against her top.
"Thanks. Darius," she said, then returned to pretending to read.
Darius turned back to Val. She nodded her head towards Alyss, then slowly and silently mouthed the words 'go for it' enunciating each word so Darius got the point.
He did.
"Hey Alyss," he began, looking back at her, "you got those notes from Mr. Hall's class from last week? I can't find mine and we got that quiz on Monday."
Alyss looked up at him with eagerness. "Ah yeah! I mean... sure." She took off her sunglasses and sat the book on her lap. "We can hit the library tonight if you want. I like almost forgot about that quiz too!"
Darius grimaced. "Well, if you can, can I get 'em now. I'd like to get a head start. I mean..."
"Sure. Sure!" Alyss stood up. Once on her feet, she felt her bottom bunching up on her butt. She ran her fingers along the back of her bikini and each cheek to straighten it out.
Darius did not fail to notice her actions.
"Thanks, Alyss. Led the way."
Darius gave Valerie a look as he stepped towards Alyss. Valerie put on a slight smirk.
Alyss began walking away with Darius right next to her. As they moved towards the main building, she turned and gave her friend one last look.
Valerie held her hand to her face, making a V with two fingers. She pressed them against her lips and wiggling her tongue between them.

Alyss entered first. The whole way up, she and Darius went on about what a douche Professor Hall was.
"I got them on my laptop," she said as Darius closed the door to her small bedroom. He watched her go to her dresser, atop which sat her computer. Behind it a large mirror gave Alyss a place to groom herself.
"I should do the same, you know," Darius added. "Maybe that's why I'm glad I know you. Without you, I'd be lost sometimes."
Alyss let out a chuckle as she began powering up her laptop. She then looked into the mirror. There she noted how Darius' eyes appeared planted on her behind. His compliment and the fact he was checking her out caused her heart to beat a bit faster. Once again, she reached down and straightened out her bikini. This time she deliberately moved her fingers a bit slower along the hem of the panty-like bottom, all the while watching Darius smile and never once taking his eyes off her.
He's checking me out! He's checking me out!
she thought, attempting to hide her giddiness.
He was, glancing at her backside, eyeing her index fingers move along her perfect ass. The pink bikini bottom hugged her hips and butt to near perfection.
Done giving Darius a playful display, she needed her hands to tap away on the laptop.
"You know," Darius said, stepping up behind her, "I'm surprised you don't have a boyfriend."
His question caught her off guard. She drew in a breath, seeing Darius approach her in the mirror. Noting the mild shock on her face, she put on a smile.
"Why... why would you say that?"
Darius looked at her reflection and smiled. "Well, you're smart. Like I said, I'd be lost without your notes. And you are great looking. I mean..." He got right behind Alyss. "This is the first time I've seen you this way, and have 'ta say..."
Alyss hung onto his every word. Their eyes meet the others in the mirror. Her body responded by tensing up, awaiting his next verbal compliment, his dark eyes mesmerizing her.
"Say... say what?" she finally asked. Her desire to hear his opinion of her body became too great.
