08. Wet and caught.
"Wake up, it's another beautiful rainy day!"
Damn, how can that woman be so awake so early all the time, Ashley thought upon hearing Jennifer's voice. Every morning now Jennifer had been the first to wake up, and also the one to wake up the long-sleepers including Ashley.
Ashley turned around, and put her arm around the body next to her, and shook it a bit. "Time to wake up, Phoebe," she said. But that body felt much smaller than she expected, so she opened her eyes, and was suddenly very awake. "Ruby, you sleeping here? Sorry didn't notice you coming back." She quickly pulled back her arm.
"It's OK, we came back late, couldn't see anything, so just lay down the first available space that I found. I'm not so big so I fit almost anywhere. You guys were all sleeping already. Well, let's get up, it's time for breakfast. I'm so hungry! That was quite a night, those guys are really insatiable."
After breakfast Ashley teamed up with Phoebe again and together they went for her rock hideout. Just like yesterday Phoebe went in first, and Ashley followed, squeezing herself against Phoebe's body to fit in the gap and to remain out of sight. It started to feel more natural, not as awkward as on the previous day.
Ashley really started to feel comfortable with Phoebe. It was as if she found a soul mate, in a rather unexpected manner of course, but still she felt like they connected rather well. And the intimacy she felt with the other woman was interesting to say the least, if nothing else they kept each other warm in the cold and rainy conditions.
After standing there for a while she felt Phoebe's hand move on her ass, squeezing her lightly.
"Hey, what you doing," she asked, grinning, knowing of course very well what that hand was doing.
"Nothing," the innocent reply came.
They grinned, and Ashley let her hand slide round Phoebe's waist.
"Now keep quiet," she said, "the game is about to start and I don't want to get caught, or do you?"
She was barely done talking or the horn sounded, and the cheers of the men entering the area was heard.
The girls continued their whispered chatting, joking about the events of the past days, talking about life after the event, sharing their feelings about what happened to them and discussing how to deal with it all.
While they were talking their bodies were rubbing against each other. A little twist and turn, a bit sideways, not much movement was possible to begin with in the narrow gap. Mostly natural movements, but Ashley had the feeling that some of Phoebe's movements were more than that, and were actually meant to tease her sexually. They both moved much more than the previous day, when Ashley was reluctant to move, not knowing really how to handle the intimate situation.
Ashley was really becoming comfortable with the closeness of their naked bodies, and the feelings it gave her. She actually found she was getting a bit aroused with all the movements going on. Phoebe had one hand on her ass, the other arm rubbing against her breast, her hard nipple must be obvious. It was a very new experience to her. Add to that the whole situation of being virtually locked up with the other girl, both stark naked, with the constant fear of being discovered and used as sex slave - it gave the whole thing a strangely erotic atmosphere.
Ashley had never felt anything for another woman but Phoebe seemed different. She did not know what was going on in her mind, maybe it was just the stress of the whole game they were involved in. Oh well, just go with the flow and see where it ends up, she figured.
The weather was still dark. Not as dark as the previous day but still heavy clouds, and now and then rain would fall down. Everything around them was moist. The ground, the walls, everything. Their shoes were still soaked from the previous day, giving them wet feet. Luckily the rain also meant it was not very hot, as otherwise it could have been unbearable to stand like they did.
The morning passed, and the hunt was on. Having a smaller group of hunters meant there was a smaller chance than before for anyone to look into their hideout. It also meant the men would separate and mostly go about the hunt alone, in order to cover more ground.
Two, three times they heard someone walking along the trail passing by their hideout, and both Ashley and Phoebe stiffened up, holding their breath. Ashley pushed herself closer to Phoebe just to be further out of sight. But nothing happened and they could relax.
The end of the game session approached, and they started to chat again, thinking they were scot free. Yet at that moment they heard footsteps approaching, and held still. The footsteps stopped for a while, then continued, getting closer. Ashley pushed herself hard against Phoebe, afraid of being seen. Then they heard the footsteps walking towards their hideout, and the bush being pushed away. A male voice said, "Peekaboo!"
Ashley felt her heart bouncing in her throat. She couldn't breathe.
"Oh, no-one here. I though I heard something," murmured the voice. "Probably just some animal."
The girls slowly relaxed as they heard the footsteps disappear in the distance.
"I thought you were going to suffocate me," Phoebe whispered to Ashley.
"Yes sorry about that, it was not intentional, I was just afraid he would see me," Ashley replied.
"Don't worry, I don't mind you doing that. In a way it feels nice, protected and so. And knowing that I'm not the only one who doesn't want to get caught is nice as well. You know I'm really glad with how you supported me yesterday. That was really sweet, made me feel much better," whispered Phoebe, and she put her free arm around Ashley's head, pulled Ashley's head towards her own, and planted a big kiss on Ashley's mouth.
Ashley was a bit shocked at first, she had never kissed a girl before, but soon kissed back and started to feel all warm inside.
After a while Phoebe broke their kiss, and whispered, "Thanks again."
Ashley felt really confused now. But she could not deny that she did enjoy the kiss, the warmth of Phoebe's soft body against hers, the closeness, but she was very confused having such feelings for another woman. She knew she really had to be careful not to go crazy these days, as she was barely getting to terms with being a prostitute, and in the meantime having feelings for another woman, what she had never had before, much less imagined she would ever have. She actually wanted to kiss Phoebe again, there and then, but her overall confusion stopped her from doing so.
They stood there silently for another ten minutes or so until they heard the horn signalling the end of the session, and they returned to the cabin. The rain had finally settled down, and the sky was becoming a bit brighter.
Back at the cabin the other girls were arriving as well. Ashley and Phoebe took the honours of starting to make lunch. When they sat down they realised there were thirteen of them: just two missing. That was a first for the week, it had never happened that the men could not even find three of them in two hours time.
"Oh those guys will be so frustrated, not being able to find more of us! I really feel for Christie and Eva. They'll have a hard time," Judith said.
"Sure... they'll be very hard... oh sorry you weren't talking about the men?" Ruby replied, and the rest laughed.
They had lunch together, and after that some went for a nap, while the rest went to the yard for a game of volleyball. After sitting still all morning while hiding some activity is quite important to keep those muscles going.
By the time it was time to get out and hide themselves, Eva and Christie returned.
"Welcome back ladies," Alice exclaimed when she saw them approaching. "How was it?"
"Rough," said Christie.
"Busy," said Eva.
"Man those guys were so unhappy about not being able to find more of us! We barely got to have lunch. We had to eat with a dick in our pussies, so frustrated they were. The horny bastards, they just couldn't wait."
"Yeah, and after that they all wanted both of us - twice. Taking breaks to last longer. Ugh, having sex for well over an hour straight with at least two men at the same time is very demanding."
"Anyway we'd better go hiding, and hide better than this morning, because I really don't want to be caught again!"
After that final remark from Christie they all hugged each other good luck and set off again for another round of adult hide and seek.
Again Ashley and Phoebe went to hide together. They felt safe there, and Ashley rather enjoyed having Phoebe's company. Shortly before the horn sounded they entered the tiny space. Ashley put her right hand on Phoebe's hip. Her left hand was stuck between her body and the rock face, while she was standing against Phoebe's right side.
"Those men must be frustrated and search extra hard this time," Phoebe said softly. "Will they come in and find us this time?"
"I hope not. I've been caught once so far and hope to keep it at that. But you never know of course, just hope they have a look in the entrance and don't realise we're around the corner, like the guy this morning did."
"Indeed. Three times so far for me. Happy to have been spared for now - thanks to you I must say."
Ashley smiled, and moved her hand up and down along Phoebe's waist and hip, feeling the smooth skin and the curves of Phoebe's body.
Feeling comfortable, she gathered all her courage and asked, "You told me you once did it with another girl, right? I'm curious, what did you do and how was it?"
