By The Pool Side

Her First Touch

I know people don't normally freak out when they see their friends sun bathing do they? And especially if that friend happens to be the same sex as them. I don't know how Mitchie and I ended up alone near a pool but we did. Okay well I do know, Justin and his friend left for some crushed ice for some snow cones, I, being the lazy one decided to stay by the pool and relax. Mitchie chimed in that I shouldn't be alone and this is where we ended up. Justin's friend David likes me, and Justin like's Mitchie, but it'll never happen with him and her, I won't allow it. She slowly slides her hands up and down her legs rubbing on some tanning lotion. I can't pull my eyes away from her dark blue bikini that holds together with metal hoops and thin strings. Her hair is blowing in the light wind, falling over her shoulders. I look as plain as can be, I'm hiding my brown bikini bottoms under some shorts, my top is exposed but not by much since I'm wearing a white top over it, maybe its just the straps showing.

"Alex can you help me rub this on my back?" I hear Mitchie's voice ring through the air. The heavily shaded pool area only leaves the patio with enough sun for tanning, and where Mitchie was sitting had the most of it. I gulped before nodding, my mouth became dry and I stumbled out of my lawn chair and over to her. "Be careful, that stuff is sticky," she said smiling at me before handing me the black bottle with a yellow smiling face on it. I still didn't speak as she turned around and began pulling her hair towards the front end of her body, leaving her shoulder and back exposed, due to the fact that her small straps came together at her neck and mid back. I struggle to turn the bottle over, its already opened but it seems that the thought of knowing I'm about to place my hand on the girl was making me a bit nervous and clumsy. I stretched my left hand out and poured a big amount of lotion on my hand and placed the bottle on the burning concrete. I rubbed my hands together slowly before leaning into her.

My hands hovered over her body a few seconds before I laid them onto her skin. She was Hot, in both physical from the sun and literal by her body and everything else. I could feel her inhaling and exhaling as my hands slid across her and somehow we both came in tuned together because as she inhaled I moved my hands, and when she exhaled I stopped. The side of my face began to burn from the sun beaming down on me, and my cheeks were already on fire from smiling..wait I was smiling. I pulled back when I was done and could feel my fingers stinging as if something was crawling in them. Mitchie faced me with her eyes squinted.

"Thanks," she said leaning into me before wrapping her arms around my neck, her touch burned but it felt so good. This time I completely stopped breathing. She still held onto me, so I decided to place my already burning hands onto her back. I hugged her tight, now not only did my hands sting and burn but from there up to my elbows had action. I pulled back and she smiled before I sat on the cement next to her. I didn't see how she could sit on this stuff, it was hot, I mean steaming hot.

"So when do you think the boys will be back?" she asked me. I really didn't care, just me and her was all I needed.

"I don't know, the store is like a thirty minute drive, David living in the mountains and all," I said as Mitchie nodded before sliding her feet into the pool. Her toes stretched out to touch the water before her ankles followed. Her arms were behind her as she leaned back onto her palms, closing her eyes and turning to face the sun. Her lips were a small shade of red, as if she was biting on them and they happened to change colors. I watched as she breathed and smiled before reaching over to touch her face. She slowly turned to me and opened her eyes as my fingers rubbed against her cheeks and up to her ear before I pushed strands of hair back. I lowered my hand thinking I must of scared her but she just smiled. I took a breath of relief as she raised herself closer to the pool and made the water reach her knees. Her back was all I could see now, I wonder if she'd let me touch her back just for the fun of it. I slid on the hot cement, ignoring the pain that went through my legs and was now completely behind Mitchie. I think she knew I moved because she sat completely straight, stiff almost, not moving. A bird screeched behind me and I turned and when I faced Mitchie again she had fell into the pool. She pushed herself out of the water laughing. I saw her eyes and the glistening water that reflected in them before smiling back. She placed her hand out to me but I just stared at it.
