"She's here."
Willa Pryce jumped at her cellphone text from newfound friend Ashleigh Thomas. She carried baby Grace downstairs with her in order to activate the front gate from a control panel near the front door. Afterwards she opened the cherry door and stepped into view of the drive. A tiny red Jetta pulled into sight and parked within a designated guest parking cul-de-sac.
The brilliant blond bombshell, sheltered within her shy demeanor leaped from her car and darted toward Willa. Gleefully they met with a sideways hug due to baby Grace. Grace wanted to tug Ashleigh's hair.
Pinching the baby's tiny hand to shake it lightly Ash grins, "She is sooo adorable."
"So are you, Bestie."
Ash grins at Willa then they share a second hug. Grace went after Willa's red locks this time. With laughter they use Willa's hair to tease the baby into laughing with them. A baby moustache was hilarious.
"It's so good to see you." Willa gleams, "So much has happened since we met. Nick and Claire's son "Jessie", got expelled from school for two weeks. Wait! You knew that from our texts. Vandalized the Jeep of his Commanding Officer. Military school. Anyway, I'm not certain how to let you in. I need to talk to Nick but he's writing in his study."
"I thought he invited me. After Dinner at My Dad's Restaurant he extended the offer. So did you in inviting me to his son's pool party. Should I like come back in a few weeks?"
"Noooo! I need some me time. I meant concerning that rule Nick gave you about no clothing inside the house. With Jessie here I'm not sure what to have you do. Let me try calling Nick and hope he doesn't get mad at me."
A swift contact dial to Nick's cell led to an eventual answer, "This had better be important."
"Please don't be mad. Ashleigh is here. With Jessie being home I wasn't certain what to do about that standing no attire rule for her. Should she keep her clothes on because of Jessie?"
Silence for thirty seconds of grumbling Nick finally growls, "Give her your skimpiest bikini for the day. With Jessie's friends coming over for that unwarranted pool party she will fit right in. By the way, I don't like the name Ashleigh. As you know I did a background check on her which is my prerogative when anyone new enters my home. Safety first. Especially around Grace. She surpassed my expectations over dinner. It remains to see how well she and Grace take to each other. I've decided that from now on her name is "Eve". Short for her middle name "Evelyn". The name Ashleigh no longer exists. Is this understood?"
Willa nods, "Yes, Sir. Nick says that your name from now on is "Eve". You have to wear my skimpiest bikini while in the house."
Ash/ Eve nods her approval, "Got it."
"Anything else we should know Nick? Like how to behave around Jessie and friends?"
"Once Charlotte arrives she can keep Grace in her playroom. The two of you can join the pool party. Tease but do not go too far. Am I clear?"
"Not completely. How deeply should we tease? You did say his friends were 18, right?" "Both 18 already, yes. Regardless, NO SEX! Play naïve. There is no reason to engage."
"What if Jesse get's over eager like before?" Willa worries.
" Learn resistance in this case."
"So I can punch him in the nose if he gets out of hand?" She jests.
"No! Why would you joke about that? That's punishable."
Willa drops her jaw, readjusting Grace in her arm, "Sorry. Punishment how?"
"If he gets out of hand IS your punishment. Use that term for inspiration as you see fit."
"Yes, Sir. I won't bother you anymore today. If you need me you can come find me."
"Charlotte is at the gate. I just let her in. Tell her I'll come to the play room shortly. I'll make certain she doesn't interfere with you. One final thing. Prepare a bottle for Grace so that Charlotte does not need to go to the kitchen. She must not witness the pool antics."
"Will do. Write something juicy for us to act out."
"That I intend. I think Jesse might have finally woke up. Before he comes down get Eve dressed. Have her meet you poolside. She can take the path around the house."
"On it. Bye Nick."
Pointing to her left at a path of circular stones Willa tells Eve to meet her by the pool. Afterwards Willa greets Charlotte the elderly day sitter at the front door. Simple chatting later the woman follows Willa upstairs to the large play room Grace adored.
"I'll go make a bottle and bring up a snack for later. That Disney animated movie, "Frozen", is in the DVD player. It's so cute. Nick said he would take a small break and come chat with you." She passes Grace into Charlotte's awaiting arms, "Be right back."
Trying to hurry she dashes into her bedroom and snatches up her purple G-string bikini for Eve. She then rushes downstairs to pass it off to the devastating Blond by the pool as she glared out at the ocean.
"Oh my God. The view is beautiful." Eve bounces in step.
"That's money for you. Here! I have a few things to do. Get changed and I'll be back in ten minutes or so."
"Take your time. I'll sunbathe."
"Lotion in that cooler by the chase." Willa scurries away.
Through French doors Willa quickly heads to the kitchen gathering the bottle along with a platter of treats for Charlotte and Grace. She knew Charlotte was partial to vanilla wafers.
On her way upstairs Jessie started his journey down. Spotting each other Willa shy's slightly stepping aside for him.
"Need help with that tray?" Jesse tried to be charming.
"Sure! Carry it to Grace's play room. Your Dad and Charlotte are there. I have a friend over out by the pool."
"Friend? Guy or girl?" Jesse hesitates.
Chuckling Willa sticks her tongue out at him, "Big Guy. Football player. I have a right to date."
Rolling his eyes Jesse claims the tray and heads toward his dad. He knew even this tiny deed would help redeem himself. Still it nagged at him that Willa might truly have a date.
"Here's ummm breakfast? Lunch?" He nudges by his Father in the play room doorway.
"That was nice of you to help Willa. Wait in the hall while I speak to Charlotte."
Doing so the door seals shut.
Moments later it opens and Nick emerges.
"I asked Charlotte to not cramp your style and stay in the play room for the next five hours. Now your friends can't tease you about your Grandmother visiting."
"Funny. Thanks Dad. Look, I know I don't deserve today but I promise you I will make it up once I go back to school. No more drama and I'll graduate with good grades. I swear."
"You had better. You know your Mother wants you to get into Harvard. Your grades aren't that far off the chart in accomplishing that goal."
"I know. I know." Jesse sulks.
"As far as your party goes. Behave. Just because there are two pretty girls around does not mean you need to act like fools. Willa and her friend deserve respect."
Taken back by the revelation of two girls Jesse winces, "Dad! We're boys. I can't promise that. No offense, Sir."
Nick palms the back of his son's neck and glares at him.
"You are your Father's son. I make a living off of doing the things I expect you not to do. Just don't humiliate me in my own home."
Jesse grins sheepishly, "I'll do my best."
Nodding together Nick heads back to his office. Jesse darted downstairs and to the French doors facing the pool. He immediately spotted Willa and her friend standing up talking.
"Holy shit. Blond with a perfect body." Instant wood later he snatches his cell from his cargo pants and texts both of his friends to hurry up. Once he sent it he hushed the doors open and stepped out into the harsh California sun.
"Big bad football player, huh?" He spouts.
The girls face him in their dark sunglasses giggling.
"Eve? This is Nick's son Jesse."
Jesse coyly steps in to shake Eve's hand. Eve in turn blushes lightly.
They both ushered "Hi." at the same time.
Willa shakes her head and points at Jesse, "MY FRIEND!"
Eve puckers, "He likes your friend."
Willa eyes Jesse's crotch, "Oh, come on. You just met."
Jesse turns red and repositions his lost boyhood.
"Who says it's her that got me this way?"
Willa frowns, "Am I wearing a bikini? No."
She knew she had to dress accordingly due to Charlotte's arrival.
"So, go change. Join your friend here and catch a tan."
"My tan is darker than yours. Heck, her tan is darker than yours."
Eve hisses, "In this sun that won't last long. I mean my pale tan."
"Need any lotion applied?" Jesse smirks.
"Maybe. If your Dad doesn't mind."
Eve lowers her glasses to wink at Willa with her brilliant blue eyes. Willa turns just as quickly to face Jesse with a look of, "She didn't!" and busts out laughing.
"Maybe we'll let your friends oil us both up. You're being punished if I recall.." Willa sticks her tongue out at him.
This infuriates Jesse into bursting out, "You didn't mind when I fucked you a few days ago." His voice then mimicking hers, "Ohhhhhhhh Jesse. Oh my God Jesse. DON'T STOP JESSE."
Willa stops laughing and smiles lightly. Unfortunately Jesse was right. For all of his virgin actions he was talented.
"Okay, point taken. Let's not talk about that right now. I thought we made peace over that night."
He glares at her bitterly, "Yeah, we can talk about that later."
Dropping his gaze he turns quietly and shuffles back into the house.
Willa suddenly felt awful, turning toward Eve.
"I think I hurt his feelings. Oh my God, Ash--er--Eve. Now I feel terrible. I might have just ruined his day with his friends."
Eve pouted then eased next to Willa offering a soft hug.
"That or we can make his day memorable."
Parting their hug Willa looks at Eve, "Nick did say tease them all we wanted, just no sex. Of course I did get punished. Nick told me that if Jesse gets out of hand to use that term as inspiration."
Eve fidgets her lips, "Okay. Oiling uses hands. Jerking off uses hands."
Willa raises her eye brow, "Do we or do they?"
"I say we do half and half. Let them finish?" Eve shrugs.
"Let's play this by ear. Let me go change into my bikini. Come on inside and grab us some bottled water. I'll be down in a little while." Willa takes Eve by the hand and guides her into the home.
In awe of the interior Eve sighs, "My house is so not like this. It's big but this is like a mini coliseum."
"Make yourself at home. Be right back." Willa departs.
