Chapter 5
I.
Pudge saw the hot tub as we walked through the front gate. "Who wants to hit the hot tub?" she said as more of an announcement than a question.
I wanted a bed, but that wasn't going to happen right now. Even if it did, I wasn't crawling into one alone. I had promised Nadia that I was going to see her sexually satisfied, and I had meant it. I'd blown four loads since we got her but hadn't even entered her once. I meant to keep that promise for its own sake, but there was now another angle to consider.
If I went off to bed and collapsed, it would probably have been for twelve to 16 hours. After what happened in the car, it was clear to me in that time, Pudge and Nadia would be fucking each other's brains out. Pudge wasn't here to take Nadia from me, and I was sure from our earlier conversation Nadia wasn't planning on being taken. But Nadia was as worked up as I'd ever seen her, and Pudge's break up, combined with the massive load of intoxicants she'd consumed left her with the moral standing of a stray alley cat in heat. There was also no doubt in my mind that, physically, Pudge could out-fuck me by a mile. A night like that could be enough to change Nadia's mind about staying with me. If I could stay a part of it, then I could avoid that risk. I might get lapped in this race, but I had to finish.
"You can put your suit on in the guest bungalow. There's towels and robes there too." Nadia said to Pudge. Nadia gestured toward the guest quarters. Pudge shrugged and walked that way into the darkness. "Swimsuits?" I thought. It was an odd time to start being bashful, but Nadia was generally a conventional person. Maybe it was just habit.
It turned out it was Nadia's play to get me alone. As we walked into the main house, Nadia grabbed my wrist and turned me to her. "You can go to bed if you want," she said to me as we got to the master suite. I started to talk, but Nadia cut me off, "Look, the dance floor, the car - that wasn't about me and Jules. It was about all three of us. She's heartbroken and, I think just needs an outlet or escape." I should have laughed at myself, but I was too tired. "Look at you. You're a wreck. You can't physically keep up with us, but it's not your fault. It's just the way things are now," she saw me becoming crestfallen, "I know you are trying your hardest; that's what matters to me." Nadia pulled off her dress and underwear, pulled out her blue tankini. The top fit snuggly across her ample tits, and the bottoms rode low over her hips. She kissed me and left for the hot tub.
Damn, I thought. I am not giving up. I reached into my shaving kit, pulled out a fistful of amphetamines, Viagra, ibuprofen, and a couple of the pills purported in improve male sexual function in a bunch of ways from growing the penis to producing loads of spooge. I took them all. I grabbed a new swimsuit, threw it on and was with a surprised and skeptical Nadia at the hot tub when Pudge arrived from the guest bungalow.
II.
Wow, I had underestimated Pudge's physique back at the club. The muscles in her arms and back were obvious then -- it was no surprise when I couldn't budge her hand gag in the car. Now I could see she'd retained the densely muscular legs and power-packed glutes of the champion vaulter she had been. Her abs put even Nadia's six pack to shame with defined obliques flanking her chiseled core. Her modest boobs, handfuls at most, were supported on bed of well-formed pectoral muscles. She traded Nadia's curves for lats that formed a tapered V that rose for her waist to broad, but delightfully rounded shoulders. Her neck was feminine but flanked by traps that hinted at her strength regardless of what she was wearing. Her delts, biceps, and triceps were apparent when relaxed and dramatically impressive when flexed. It wasn't the striated and dehydrated look of a female bodybuilder or fitness competitor, but the functional muscle of an athlete. Looking her up and down, I thought back to what happened at the club. I realized why my body felt like it had been slammed into a brick wall - it had been.
She moved with the grace and muscular ripple of a jungle cat. Her skin was slightly paler than Nadia's but smooth and unblemished and shone in the moonlight. It contrasted with deep red string bikini she'd donned in the guest house. At some point she'd traded the dirty blonde ponytail that had been her staple do since middle school for a bleached blond short, spiked look that I thought would fit well in any number of punk-rock bands. Pudge turned to drape towel over a chair. I hadn't seen the tattoo on her shoulder blade before. It was a red rose whose stem formed a stylized "J". A petal was shown falling away from the bud. "J" for Jack.
She turned back and tossed a small vial to Nadia who looked at it, opened it and drank the contents. Pudge pulled another vial from her bad, opened it, and downed the contents herself. She produced a third, opened it, and drank about two thirds of it. She then held up the vial as if to carefully confirm its level. She sipped just a hair more and put the lid back on giving it and extra tightening twist. She tossed it to me, adding with a laugh, "Here 'ya go, sissy, one training wheels dose of high quality liquid MDMA". Nadia made a disapproving face at her as I caught the vial. I wasn't sure if Nadia was signaling that I shouldn't have more X or if she didn't care for Pudge's teasing. I think it was the latter.
I started to open the vial but couldn't budge the lid. I tried again, but it wouldn't loosen. Pudge erupted in laughter. The extra twist she'd applied -- this was what she wanted from that. Nadia giggled a little. I played along pretending like I was making a big deal of trying and failing to open the vial and we all laughed. Truth was I was actually still trying, but Pudge and twisted that sucker on but good. I would have needed a wrench to get it off. The role reversal from childhood was obvious. I imagine there were a lot of little sisters getting even with big brothers -- or their jerk friends - these days.
Nadia swam across the hot tub -- which was huge, by the way, and probably could fit my whole extended family -- to me. She took the vial from my hand, pecked me on the lips, and easily opened it. She handed it back to me, leaned in and whispered, "no more after this, I need you in top form when we get out of here". She swam back to her seat, adding, for Pudge's benefit and both of their amusement, "Do you need a sippy cup, or would a nipple be better?" I tossed the dose back while they were laughing their pretty heads off.
III.
Pudge eased herself into the hot tub gracefully stretching out her form and lowering herself in with her well-defined arms. The movement showed off her sculpted body and prompted me to say, remarkably casually, "You look great, Pudge". The discordance between complement on her lithely muscular body and my continued use of her long-outdate nick name hung in the air over the bubbling water and earned me a dirty look and a head shake from my wife.
