When Amanda first met Jeff she was eighteen to his twenty-four. Her parents liked Jeff but they were also leery of the age difference between the two. Consequently they often put limits on Amanda's activities with Jeff and explained to her that so long as she was still living at home then their rules applied.
Amanda started college that fall while Jeff was getting himself started as a clerk for a judge. Their futures were bright, for sure.
Between her studies and the demands of his job they didn't see each other too often. Yet their desire for one another grew.
Over the next year their dates were quite proper and chaste. Jeff was respectful of his girlfriend and Amanda was respectful of her parents. Still, they had all the normal urges and desires of young adults.
It was the Saturday of a three day summer weekend and the two young people had planned on getting together early to go meet some friends for a swim party.
Fatefully, Amanda's parents had gone away for the weekend to see Amanda's older sister, their son-in-law, and their grandchildren. It had gone without mention that they were trusting Amanda to be alone in the house. After all, she was just shy of turning nineteen.
Jeff was supposed to pick up Amanda at noon before heading to the swim party. But being rather excited to see Amanda he decided to get going not long after the sun rose.
When he arrived at Amanda's place he parked around back as usual and then knocked on the back door.
"Jeff!" said a very happy Amanda as she opened the door.
Her arms went around his neck while she held herself close to him and kissed him.
"I was just getting ready! You're so early!" she remarked.
"Oh, yeah, just excited about the day I guess." said Jeff as he took in a completely new perspective on his Amanda. She was wearing a long t-shirt over just a pair of panties. For the first time he saw her without a bra on and her soft breasts clearly had many pleasant curves to them.
Amanda excused herself and left Jeff in the kitchen alone with his thoughts. When she returned she was all set to go and the two of them departed for the swim party.
Even though they arrived early there were already a few of their friends at the lake setting up barbeques and chairs and the usual accoutrement for a beach party.
The festivities went according to plan and the young people shimmied out of their street clothes to reveal nicely toned bodies wrapped in bikinis and swimsuits.
Jeff and Amanda enjoyed seeing so much of each other. Their hands had a tendency to seek out bare skin and a kind of tension started to form between them.
The crowd of young people frolicked in the murky water and it was obvious to Jeff and Amanda that some of their friends were extremely comfortable with their dating partners.
At one point Amanda's friend Lisa pulled her away from Jeff for a little girl talk.
"Are you and him...you know?" asked Lisa.
"You know what?" replied Amanda.
"You know, are you doing it with him?"
"Ohmigod, no! Of course not! What kind of a question is that?" said a shocked Amanda.
Lisa smiled. "He wants you. I can tell."
Amanda changed the subject but Lisa's words stayed on her mind.
At the end of the day the crowd started to thin and Amanda and Jeff eventually took their leave and headed back home.
Along the way both of them started to feel a bit of an itch. Amanda texted Lisa and asked Lisa if she was okay and Lisa said she was itchy too. It must have been something in that murky lake water.
"My place is closer." said Jeff, as he exited the highway and headed for his apartment. "We'll wash up and then I'll take you home from there."
