CHAPTER FOUR: Raindrops
July bloomed forward into gorgeous greens and bright blues. Tiny yellow and purple wildflowers spread across every meadow and valley throughout the islands. And, honestly, it felt like those same wildflowers were spilling through my body every moment I spent with Olive. It was easier with girls who were a little older; half the time, they wanted to be left alone, even when I wasn't allowed to let them be. That meant at least a handful of minutes every day when I could be with Olive. Not night after night like we both wanted, but enough stolen kisses to get by.
Luckily, we had a rainy Wednesday, which meant half the day would be spent inside the gym with the activity leaders who usually ran obstacle courses and swimming lessons. The persistent rain tapped gently against the windows, creating a cozy ambiance that contrasted with the typical outdoor adventures. The gray clouds outside diffused the natural light, casting a soft, diffused glow over the gymnasium, giving it a tranquil atmosphere.
For me, it meant more than just a break from the rain. It meant I had not just a few minutes but a few hours to sneak away with Olive. The prospect of uninterrupted time with her sent a thrill through me, a secret escape from the responsibilities that tethered us to the camp's routines. The thought of being alone with her, even if just for a little while, was a welcome respite from the watchful eyes of both campers and fellow counselors.
With my campers safely tucked away in the gymnasium, a cacophony of laughter and playful shouts filling the air, I seized the opportunity. I left them under the supervision of plenty of grownups and ran back to Olive's cabin with my hoodie tugged up over my head. The rain had intensified, the drops falling in a rhythmic pattern that matched the rapid beat of my heart.
I didn't bother with knocking since she was expecting me, but the sight of her half-dressed still sent a thrill down my spine. The outline of her nipples showed through her thin white tee and her tiny black thong framed her perfect full ass. I walked up to her quietly as she slightly turned to greet me. From behind, I wrapped my arms around her and kissed her neck next to her shaggy hair, which was growing out now that the summer was halfway over.
My hands trailed down to her hips and then to her bare ass. I squeezed her ass and she arched her back into me with a soft moan. She sighed contentedly and said, "Good morning."
"Enjoying your day off?"
"Way more now that you're here." She turned around and kissed me softly, slowly, romantically. Our bodies folded into each other's. With our eyes closed, we kissed and held each other for a minute. She said, "I love rainy days because there's no outdoor maintenance. I hate the days after because there's way more outdoor maintenance from the rain."
My breath hot on her ear, I replied, "Then we'd better make the most of today."
I kissed her again and started to move us both toward the bed. But Olive pulled away and interrupted us. "I thought I could take you somewhere special."
My eyebrows raised. "Into Bar Harbor again? You hate driving in the rain."
Olive shook her head and replied, "No, I don't want to waste too much time. Just out on the lake. One of the bigger boats."
I searched her face for an answer. "It's raining."
"You mentioned that already." She chuckled and kissed me again, our tongues reacquainting themselves after time apart. When she pulled back, she asked, already knowing the answer, "You've never had sex in the rain?"
I shrugged; I would've been baffled by the question from anyone but Olive. "Why would I?"
