The sauna is thick with heat, sweat and the hazy glow of post-massage wine. Kylie let out a long sigh, stretching out along the wooden bench, letting her towel slip. Her skin glowed.
"You ever want to smother your husband in his sleep?"
Caroline, sprawled beside her, eyelids heavy. "Which part of him? Because mine's usually on top of me."
Kylie groaned. "Lucky you. I can't remember the last time mine even initiated. Not that I'm missing out; he's got exactly three moves, and one of them is rolling off after thirty seconds."
Caroline cackled. "Mine's a bloody machine. I swear, if he had the choice between me and a cold beer after a 10K run, I'd be bent over the kitchen counter before he even opened the fridge."
Kylie rolled onto her side, eyeing Caroline. "So you're drowning in orgasms and complaining?"
Caroline shot her a look. "Oh, please. Sometimes, I just need the bloke to hurry up so I can get a bloody nap."
Kylie snorted. "Sounds like you and I should just swap. You need a break, I need... well, anything."
Kylie felt Caroline watching her, felt something shift in the air.
Then Caroline huffed a laugh, shaking her head. "No. No way."
"It's not like we'd be touching each other," Kylie said, half a joke, half serious. "Just, you know..."
"So, what? A little mutual encouragement?"
Kylie's breath caught as she watched the lazy drag of Caroline's fingertips along her own thigh, teasing, absentminded. Her own thighs pressed together, a reaction, nothing more.
Caroline's lips quirked. "A women shouldn't have to wait for a bloke to get it right."
Kylie exhaled as she let her hand slip lower, fingers ghosting over slick, overheated skin. The first touch sent a shudder through her.
Caroline shifted, spreading her legs slightly.
Kylie's breath hitched as she caught sight of her, full, soft, a neat triangle of auburn curls between her thighs. Not quite wild, but untouched enough to look lush, inviting.
Caroline tilted her head, eyes flicking downward, taking Kylie in.
"Jesus, Kyles," she murmured, low, almost reverent.
Kylie swallowed. She knew what Caroline was looking at, her bare, perfectly smooth skin, every inch exposed, sleek.
Caroline's gaze lingered at her clit, small, delicate, barely peeking from its hood.
"Didn't pick you for a tidy one," she teased, voice husky.
Kylie smirked, dragging a slow finger over herself. "Didn't pick you for a bloody bushranger."
Caroline laughed, throaty and breathless, before slipping a hand between her own thighs. She wasn't rushed about it, fingers parting herself, teasing over her own folds, her clit more pronounced, larger than Kylie's, swollen in the heat.
Kylie watched, entranced, her own fingers moving in time with Caroline's.
Their hands worked differently. Caroline's circles were slow, indulgent, rolling her hips into every motion. Kylie was more precise, two fingers stroking herself in tight, controlled movements.
