I'm Carly. I'm in Surfers having a holiday with several of my friends. You know. A bit of fun before we return to our various schools (universities in our cases) and just general mucking around. I mean, why not? We're all eighteen so practically everything we do is legal.
One of the things we were going to do was go on a boat ride, spending the day out on the water. At least, we were supposed to. Monie and I met this guy, Brett, who claimed he had use of his father's boat. After a bit of friendly persuasion he agreed to take us out for the day. We were heading to the beach to meet him now, providing he didn't stooge us. I didn't think he would as he seemed a nice enough guy.
He was there with his boat and we strolled along the little jetty to meet him.
"Brett, Ann. Ann, Brett. We hope you don't mind, Brett, but we sort of invited Ann to come along for the ride. She was feeling a little bored."
"No objection on my part," he assured me. "Did you let her know the conditions?"
"Of course we did," I replied while Monie and Ann went into giggle mode. "Ann said she had no problems whatsoever with the rules."
We all climbed aboard and there was plenty of room. The boat was easily big enough for a party of eight and the four of us had no problems. We then got bit by the first of his rules. We all had to put on life-jackets.
"Why the life-jackets," Monie groused. "I can swim like a fish."
"I only have your word for that," pointed out Brett. "Ah, how well do you swim if you trip, stun yourself, and fall in?"
"Why aren't you wearing one," Monie demanded. I felt like telling her to shut up. His boat, his rules, and I didn't want him telling us to get off. He just smirked and pointed over to the steering wheel, which just happened to have a life-jacket draped over it. Monie flushed and shut-up.
For the next half hour we just zipped around, slowly getting further from shore. After that half hour Brett had us each try our hands at steering the boat while he sat next to us, observed, and made suggestions as to the correct way to steer.
We did that for a while and then Brett made another suggestion.
"Okay, Monie. You seem to be the best driver so we'll let you take control for a while. You see those two small islands ahead and to port?"
Monie nodded. After all, there were only two islands around.
"Okay, keep well clear of them. You don't know the channels around them. You have ample room to starboard without going near anything. A clarification to help resolve the confused look on your face. Port is the left side of the boat facing the bow. Starboard is the right side of the boat facing the bow. Left and right are always subjective to the person speaking and can be confusing. Port and starboard are absolute and allow accurate directions in an easily understood manner."
(That was actually quite useful to know. I'd know that port and starboard were left and right but I'd never know why and how they were actually applied.)
"Meanwhile," he continued, "I'm going to sit over here and get closer acquainted with Ann."
Monie and I smirked as we knew what he meant by closer acquainted. Ann looked somewhat startled.
"Me? Why me? I mean, you know Carly and Monie better than you know me. I sort of figured that you'd, ah, talk to them first."
Talk? Now there was a dainty euphemism.
"Mm? Didn't they tell you?"
"Tell me what?"
"I, ah, talked to both of them yesterday. You might say their initial dues are paid up."
"No," said Ann, giving us a nasty look, "they didn't mention that. They just giggled a lot when explaining your rules."
Brett just laughed and went and sat down next to her. I was flapping my ears as hard as I could trying to hear what he was saying and I was willing to be that Monie was, too. Didn't help. All I could hear was the soft, lulling, murmur of his voice. Whatever he was saying it was certainly getting through to Ann. I could tell that by just watching her.
Well, I suppose I could also tell by the way Brett started stroking her leg, his hand moving higher and higher without resistance. It finally slipped under her bikini and the look on her face was priceless. I think until that moment she hadn't been certain that he was going to follow through.
I'd like to point out that Monie and I weren't deliberately watching. It was more of a case that we were sitting at the back of the boat while Monie steered and Ann and Brett were in the front, seated facing us. We couldn't help but see what was happening.
