Chapter 01: Beth
---------------------
Beth suggests a summer pool payment plan.
---------------------
The kids were swimming out in the pool and I was watching them from the deck while I tried to get some work done. Thanks to modern technology and wireless networks, my office was outside as often as not. I found myself enjoying the backyard, as long as the weather held out.
We had a relatively full house. Our neighbor Beth was there with her two boys. My daughter of course was running around like a banshee, and the kids from next door were over as well. My wife works Tuesday through Friday, long 10 hour days, so once summer break kicked in, I started working from home a lot more, so I could watch over our little one. If I had to be out, we could always depend on our friends and neighbors to assist whenever possible. We were a pretty close knit group, and helped each other out whenever we could.
Beth was looking as hot as ever and I couldn't help but get a little lost in reminiscing about the one and only time we had hooked up, nearly 2 years earlier. We never talked about it since, but with a few drinks inside of us, the flirting could be pretty outrageous, especially away from prying eyes. It had been one incredible night of almost non-stop sex, and I fantasized about it often. Today she was wearing a small bikini, and working on her tan. Fuel for the fire.
The kids didn't really need too much watching; they were all decent swimmers, and the eldest girl from next door who was our usual babysitter was capable of supervising the crowd of 7 to 11 year olds.
I realized I was staring at Beth, and I was getting excited. I had pitched a tent in my bathing suit, and was afraid of getting caught, so I closed the lid of my laptop, excused myself and went inside to get a drink and cool off. I grabbed a soft drink from the fridge and headed back to my room where I could watch through the window. The bedroom windows were west facing and we had installed dark solar screens to keep out the worst of the hot Texas sun.
A voice from the door broke my reverie.
"Everything Ok?"
I turned to find Beth standing in the doorway, a look of concern on her face. God, she was hot.
"Everything's fine," I answered, and watched her gaze lower to my bathing suit which was standing straight out in front of me. "I got a little distracted out there by a particular beauty in a bikini and decided to come in rather than treat the kids to an eyeful."
"I'm sorry."
"No it's not your fault, you weren't doing anything wrong."
"Well I hope it's my fault, and not anyone else out there," she teased, "although I gotta admit, little Jill is looking all grown up."
