"Andy," Casey started. "I can't thank you enough for all your help since I twisted my ankle yesterday." Casey had her arm wrapped around my shoulder, using me as a crutch to get to the beach chairs by the water.
"It's the least I could do," I told her. "Besides, it's been nice spending more time with you lately."
"I know!" Casey said with excitement. "I missed you so much when we were away at college. This week's been great but I'm almost glad I hurt my ankle yesterday, we've got to spend some real quality time together since then. I mean, you even helped me into bed last night. That was so sweet of you." Casey paused for a minute and we stopped walking.
"You ok, Casey?" I asked. "Need a break?"
Casey grimaced towards her ankle a moment, then looked up to me. Her light blue eyes gazed into mine for a few silent seconds, and she smiled again. "No," she replied. "No, I'm alright. I just need to adjust a second." Casey hopped closer to me, her arm tightening around my shoulder, pressing her tight body into mine. "The sun is really hot today," Casey added. "Let's not stand here too long, the sand is burning my foot." I pulled her even closer to me, my arm around her waist. I could feel her pelvic bone under the curve of her hip, my fingers pressing into the knot of the side lace of her yellow bikini bottoms. How easy, I thought to myself, it would be to untie her bikini and finally see Casey's amazing ass. I quickly shook my head, trying not to think about that kind of thing about my step sister.
"Ok, this is better," she said, "let's move."
"Hurry up, you slow pokes!" Jess called out, lounging from her beach chair. "We don't have all day, you know!"
It was hard for me not to picture Jess naked at this point, either. The bikini she was wearing was absurdly thin. It was almost as if she was taunting me with it for having spied on her changing the other day.
"Ugh," I heard Casey under her breath. She looked to me again. "Another game Jess is going to get overly competitive with."
"What game are we playing again?" I asked her.
"I actually don't know. I assume some kind of board game, since I'm injured and all," she said. "It doesn't matter, I just hope we're all still friends with Jess after the fact." Casey and I laughed, and continued walking.
"Actually, we do have all day!" Casey shouted back, smiling.
Eventually we made it to the chairs and sat down. Taylor, Caitlyn and Jess were sitting already, bathing in the sun and admiring the view of the crystal clear lake as reflections of clouds and pine trees shimmered in the distance.
"Took you guys long enough to finish lunch and get your butts back out here," Caitlyn commented.
"Hey, don't judge, I'm injured over here," Casey retorted. "Besides, you and Andy took FOREVER to eat lunch yesterday."
My heart skipped a beat. I looked at Caitlyn, and she smirked back at me. Then I glanced to Jess, who just rolled her eyes. She chuckled a little bit, which was enough to tell me she couldn't be too upset with what happened between us, and a wave of relief washed over me. I easily could have seen Jess blurting out something about what actually took me and Caitlyn so long to have lunch yesterday, but she said nothing.
"Alright," I said breaking the tension. "What game did you guys bring?"
"What?" Taylor said. "I told you before we came out here to bring a game out. I thought you had one!"
"Oh!" I said stupidly. "I thought you were saying you were bringing it out. Sorry! I'll run inside and -"
"Forget it!" Jess said. "No way, we've been waiting for too long. If you go back in the house who knows how long it'll take you to get back out."
"Yeah, Andy," Caitlyn teased, "we don't want you disappearing again like yesterday at lunch time."
"Well, what do you want to play then?" I asked.
The girls all pondered a moment, thinking of games they could play without cards or a board.
"Charades?" Taylor asked. "I think that might actually be really fun!"
"Sure," I agreed, and everyone else nodded.
"Ok, since you were the last two out here," Jess said to me and Casey "it'll be me Taylor and Caitlyn vs. Casey and Andy."
We agreed, and set out chairs apart to split up the teams.
The game started out easy. We set the rules so that the one team picked the words the other team had to act out and guess, and the first few rounds had to be one word only. Acting out "Elephant," and "Camera," and "Scissors," were simple, but entertaining. Of course, Jess's team was the first to make things more difficult, especially due to the fact Casey and I were down a player. "Flossing at midnight," proved to be insanely hard for me to guess, but watching Casey try to mime "Midnight," was really funny.
"Time!" Taylor called out.
"Come on, Andy!" Casey said jokingly angry, drawing an invisible line with her fingers, then pointing to the center. "Middle," she said. "Mid. Mid-Night? Get it?"
"That was WAY too hard," I said. "Flossing was fine, but midnight? Come on!"
Jess, Taylor and Caitlyn were all hysterical with laughter. Watching Casey get frustrated while miming flossing at midnight was, with all honesty, really, really funny.
Casey hopped back to her seat next to me. "Alright," she whispered. "No more Mr." she paused, "and Ms. Nice guys."
"Want to give them something really hard?" I asked.
"Let's come up with something really embarrassing for them to act out. Who's up for their team?" she asked.
"Jess, I think," I said.
"Perfect. I think I have an idea." Casey smiled at me with her eyebrows raised. "Jess," she said, "we got it, come over."
Jess scurried over and bent down, and Casey whispered to her. "Enormous Bouncing Booty."
"What!?!" Jess exclaimed. "There's no way I'm doing that!" she laughed.
"That's the phrase," I said devilishly.
"You could always forfeit your point, of course," Casey said, knowing that for Jess, that was the worst possible scenario, even though their team was already ahead by 4 points.
"Fine," Jess said with a smirk. "I'll make you regret this."
Jess got back up and walked over in front of Caitlyn and Taylor.
"Ready," I called out, keeping the timer on my phone. "One minute, Go!"
Jess immediately turned around and bent over arching her back, giving everyone a great look at her ass, with only a thin strip of fabric covering her vagina. She turned to look at her teammates, and pointed to her ass.
"Bubble butt!" Caitlyn called out, immediately sprawled out with laughter. Jess sighed, and motioned to keep going with her hands.
"Ass," Taylor said.
