The Mentor

Chapter 23

I got all suited up and went downstairs to meet Kyle at the pool area. I was wearing my simple red bikini and the hotel robe. I brought my bag with my towels and such and was walking down the hallway when I ran into Tatu Baby coming out of her room. She saw me and stopped me.

"Where are you going wearing just a robe?" She asked, excitedly.

"Kyle invited me to the hot tub with him." I replied.

"What color is your swimsuit?" She pestered.

"Red..." I mumbled.

She motioned for me to show her and so I obliged. My bikini line tattoo was poking out of the top of my bottoms. To be fair, it DID go up to my bellybutton.

"Nice, red is a good color. Good luck..." She said, winking.

She sashayed down the hall in the opposite direction. I picked up my stuff and closed my robe and went on my way.

When I got to the pool area, it was empty. The pool was large and blue. The entire room had large clear windows all around so anyone from the outside could see in. It was dark outside and the lights were low. I looked over to the corner and there was a small, hexagon shaped, hot tub. The hot tub had purple tile instead of blue. It was then that I noticed that Kyle was already there waiting for me. He had his arms stretched out leaning on the wall and a can of hard seltzer next to him.

"Hey you..." He said softly

I smiled awkwardly.

I just stood there for a moment, taking him in. He had way more tattoos on his legs than I originally remembered.

"Well you're not going to get in here in a robe are you?" He chuckled.

I snapped out of my trance and took my robe off and eventually crawled in across from him.

"I guess today's elimination was hard..." I started to say.

"I'm just happy it wasn't us." Kyle chuckled.

"I didn't expect Halo to go home at all. I thought he would at least make it to the end."

"I didn't either. Who do you think is going to go next?" I asked, nervously.

He sighed.

"I hate to say it but...Tatu Baby. She hasn't shown very consistent work. She's good at what she's good at but she tattoos off her emotions. You can see it in her work."

"Kyle-" I started to say

"Hey, I know you guys are close but she does have a tendency to do that. All last season the judges kept getting on her about little things and she never improved in those areas. It's another one trick pony scenario."

"Like Jesse?"

"Not quite in the same way as Jesse. Baby has more skills than that."

We sat in silence for a moment before he offered me some of his drink. I declined. If I'd learned anything from this experience it's that Jamie Natske and alcohol do not mix.

Kyle looked me up and down slowly.

"I like that swimsuit..." He mumbled.

"Thank you..." I blushed.

"It's sexy..."

I laughed nervously.

He looked me up and down again and bit his lip.

He slowly moved over to me and took the strap of my top in his hand.

"Red is a good color for you." He growled.

"Thank you..." I whispered.

I looked down and into the water. I was too nervous and excited to look at him.

"You're blushing..." He remarked.

"I am not!" I snapped.

"I think you are..." Kyle mumbled.

He moved closer to me. I chuckled nervously.

He grabbed onto the string on the side of my bottoms and pulled me into his lap so I was full on straddling him.

"Kyle...not here." I whispered.

"Why not?" He asked.

"Because there's giant windows all around this place. Someone could walk in at any moment, they'll see."

"Okay, then let them see. Free show. No one is out there anyway." He whispered, looking behind him and out the windows.

He grabbed my hips and pressed them further up on his body. I tangled my fingers in his hair and gazed into his eyes.

He chuckled to himself softly before leaning in to kiss me. I returned the kiss.

He wrapped his arms around my torso and pulled me even closer. Before I could even process what was happening, we were full on making out in the hot tub.

Eventually, he grabbed my hips and pushed them up even farther before caressing my whole body. I could feel him getting hard underneath me.

Sex in a hot tub? That did not sound particularly pleasurable. Getting chlorine in my body sounded like it would burn. I was too lost in the moment to think about any of that though.

I rested a hand on his stomach and he reached down and pulled my bottoms to the side. I moved my hand further down and undid the knot on his shorts. I looked into his eyes waiting for some kind of okay when suddenly, I heard the latch on the door push upwards.

I had no time to think of anything reasonable to do so I pulled myself away from Kyle and twirled my whole body around quickly, eventually flopping into the water like a Mullet Fish.

When I came back up, of course my hair was soaked. I adjusted my swimsuit to its original position and looked behind me. Thankfully, it was no one we knew. It was a younger couple, presumably on vacation. I looked back at Kyle.

He said nothing at first, just gazed at me in...amazement? Fear? I wasn't sure.

He eventually broke out into laughter and took a sip of his drink.

"Well I don't know what I was expecting but it was not that." He laughed.

I rolled my eyes and got out of the hot tub, wrapping my towel tightly around my body before drying off and putting my robe back on.

"Aww come on now, where are you going?" He asked.

I could feel the young couple staring at us.

"Oh don't laugh Kyle, this is a good night for me." I said sarcastically.

I picked up my bag and walked out of the pool area. I could hear Kyle hastily drying off before running after me. He caught me in the hallway.

"Come on now, why end the fun?" He joked.

"I'm not having someone watch." I snarked.

"Well we could go upstairs and relax a little. How about it?" He asked, taking my hand.

I nodded.

We took the elevator back up to our floor and Kyle took a minute to fiddle with his room key. He dropped it on the floor before eventually getting the door open.

"I make you that nervous, huh?" I joked.

He turned around, towering over me, looking down at me with those lusting dark eyes.

"Get in here." He demanded.

He grabbed the belt of my robe and pulled me in after him, letting the door slam behind us.
