I was on a 12 day cruise with my husband. After working on the road most of the year for my job it was nice to finally just relax and then my brain off. And holidays away from the family meant no stress - bonus.
It was a Caribbean cruise leaving out of Fort Lauderdale on a beautiful, newer ship. The first day we spent wandering the boat, eating food and drinking lots and lots of wine (included in our package, wonderful idea for anyone wondering).
Our first destination the following morning was the Bahamas. We opted not to do an excursion, instead planning on just lounging on the beach.
We generally don't like crowds so we got off the ship, went to the gorgeous golden sands beach and proceeded to walk until the crowds thinned out and it was just me and my husband.
I also was wearing my first every cheeky bikini in public, with a cute leopard print, so for modesty reasons I wanted to start away from people. It was a big deal for me.
Setting up towels, we splashed in the water, my husband took some photos of me and then he went back to the towel to lay down. Moments later he was asleep. I stayed in the water and just let the waves rock me.
A group of Indian men came into the water about fifteen feet away from me.
Then I suddenly got horny. It struck like lightning. I wanted to do something risky.
I went out a little deeper in the water so it was up to my neck (I'm 5'0 so it wasn't that far). Another group of guys walked by and set up next to my sleeping husband on the beach.
My heart was pounding.
Reaching behind my back I quickly undid my bikini top. Then I grabbed my bikini bottom string and pulled. It came away from my body.
I stood in the ocean, completely naked, with a group of unknowing men just fifteen feet away from me. The excitement coursed through my body. Then it hit me. Literally.
A massive wave crashed into me from behind. Completely unprepared, I was knocked off my feet and fully submerged. Everything spun as my head breached the surface.
I took a breath of air and immediately knew what the problem was. My bikini was no longer in my hand.
I was naked in the ocean. Desperately I looked all around me. It was just waves and water.
"Is this your first cruise?" A voice asked.
I spun around. The first group of guys had floated over to me, the heavy set guy speaking to me just five feet away. The water was up to my neck already but I tried to go a little deeper.
"We've been before." I replied, still looking for my suit.
He extended his hand. "My name is Benny. It's my second time." I timidly reached out and shook it. He floated closer, as did his friends, who all introduced themselves. I timidly waved at the rest.
