The house was slow to wake the next morning and Jim didn't start to stir until the morning sun was high in the sky. He could hear some movement downstairs and in the bedroom upstairs. He rolled over and cuddled up against Lisa. They both lay together as they each slowly woke up. The bathroom door opened and Jim saw Dana emerge wrapped in only a towel. "Get up you two," she teased, "you're going to waste away the day."
Lisa slipped out of bed and took Dana's place in the shower. Jim stayed in bed and watched Dana as she finished drying off and got dressed. She put on a little make up, did her hair, and then came over to Jim. She kissed him on the mouth and said, "Morning lover."
"You were amazing last night," Jim honestly said to her. "You made several of my wildest fantasies come true."
"I can't wait for tonight," Dana teasingly said as she stood up off the bed before adding that she was starving. She headed downstairs just as Lisa stepped out of the bathroom completely naked and told Jim the shower was all his. He had to resist the urge to wrap himself around Lisa's wet body as he slipped past her and into the bathroom. He lingered in the shower as the water helped to wake him up. He got out of the shower and threw on some clothes before heading downstairs.
Nearly everyone was sitting around eating breakfast or relaxing after having eaten. He noticed that Rhonda, Doug, and Lynn were missing as was Julie. He briefly wondered if they were locked away in one of the bedrooms fucking until he heard the stairs creek and saw Julie coming down them. He grabbed some breakfast and joined Dana as Jill continued talking, "...so Rhonda, Lynn, and Doug are already on the hill. Jim and I are thinking we might just hang out here today and skip skiing. Anyone else have any ideas?"
Mark said that he and Nic wanted to do some cross-country skiing. Julie quickly agreed that relaxing around the house sounded perfect and asked Jill if they minded a third wheel.
"The more the merrier," Jill said happily. "How about you two?" she asked turning to Jim and Dana.
Jim thought that hanging out at the house sounded best but Dana excitedly said she couldn't wait for another shot at the slopes. Lisa agreed with Dana so Bob tossed Dana his car keys and said they had probably get going before it gets much later. Jim hurriedly finished his breakfast as the three of them gathered up their ski gear and loaded into Jill and Bob's SUV. They waved goodbye to the others and headed off to the hill.
Jim was pretty exhausted from the previous two nights and he wanted to make sure he had something left for whatever Jill and Bob had planned, so he only made a few runs and spent most of his time drinking coffee in the lodge. Lisa and Dana soon found the other three and they skied together for the rest of the day. They drove together back down the mountain to the house. As they entered the house and started shedding their ski clothes they found Jill, Bob, and Julie in the hot tub out back.
Jill told them that she and Bob had initially been thinking of hitting one of the rowdy local bars that night, but that they were now thinking that an "in" evening sounded better. They talked and agreed that nearly everyone thought an "in" evening at the house was a great idea. Julie hopped out of the hot tub and hurried back inside, but not before Jim noticed that the cold air hardened her nipples until they strained against her thin swim suit. Jim, Dana, and Doug decided to join Jill and Bob in the hot tub while the others started showering and changing.
Nic and Mark returned a short while later and greeted everyone before disappearing into the shower together. "That girl is insatiable," Jill said softly after they disappeared. They all began to hop out of the hot tub as showers opened up. As Jim showered in the bathroom that Nic and Mark finally had vacated he was excited to think that they had probably just fucked in there. He thought briefly about Nic's body all wet and soapy and quickly finished his shower to join the rest of the group.
He went into the living room just as Bob was ordering pizzas on the phone. Jim grabbed a beer and joined the conversation. Finally everyone was in the living room after everybody had a chance to shower and change. Bob took a look in the refrigerator and said that he had better get some alcohol or else they would be sad later. He grabbed his car keys and left to get the pizza and drinks.
They continued talking comfortably for a while until Jill announced that she and Bob had come up with that evening's activity. She said that she was very happy that everyone had seemed really comfortable together so far and that some new experiences had already happened. However, she and Bob thought it might be fun to really mix things up a bit and create some new groupings for the evening. She said it would be quite a while before Bob returned so she suggested a game that would make the new pairings and pass the time. She gave everyone a small pile of chips and placed an extra one in front of her for Bob. Each person had a different color of chip. She explained that this game was simple and much like "war". Everyone was dealt a single card. The holder of the high card got a chip from the person or persons with the lowest card. When you were out of the chips you started with you were out of the game. The game would continue until only 1 person had their own chips left.
