just want to have some fun. Now are you in or not?" I watched her undo her bra and let those soft white tits come out before I answered.
"OK, I'm in."
Ruby gave a squeal of delight before pulling off her panties and rushing in to the water. I pulled my own clothes off in record time and ran behind her, diving in only seconds after she did. The two of us rose to the water's surface and had fun splashing each other before we swam out a little bit further.
The moonlight shone on Ruby's alabaster skin in a way that illuminated it perfectly. I desperately wanted to touch her and could feel myself getting erect, but I did my best to resist her. Suddenly she stopped giggling and was looking right into my eyes, a serious expression on her face. I thought that she might kiss me but the moment passed and suddenly she was splashing me again.
We got the childishness out of our systems by splashing each other, racing each other and splashing each other some more. After a while we had tired ourselves out so we just swam around lazily, enjoying the slight movement of each gentle wave.
"Jeff wants me back," Ruby said, suddenly. I tried to keep my cool.
"Your ex?"
"Yeah, Amy dumped him. He's been begging me actually. It's funny, a few months ago I thought that was what I wanted. I wanted him to suffer, and then I wanted to take him back. It's funny how that stuff changes so fast," she said softly.
"What do you want?" I asked. She moved closer to me in the water.
"I don't know. How about you?"
I wasn't sure what she wanted me to say so I told the truth. "I don't know either."

The motorcycle ride back wasn't nearly as interesting or eventful, though my heart was pounding. I had asked Nate if we could go back to his place instead of him dropping me at mine. I couldn't face my crappy apartment or the texts from Jeff or, god forbid, Jeff himself. Of course I didn't want to sleep with Nate. I just wanted to spend some time with a friend. That was a perfectly normal thing to want.
We pulled up at a beautiful house on the edge of the city. It was incredible, the kind of place you see photographs of in magazines when they interview celebrities at their homes. It had a modern, yet rustic feel that made it totally unique. Nate parked the bike in his incredible garage, which was home to two other bikes and a red Ferrari.
"Like the car?" he asked, as we got off the bike, "First thing I bought when I hit lucky." I rolled my eyes.
"Boys and their toys, huh?"
He laughed and guided me inside the living room. When he flicked on the lights it was like entering a different world. Everything was so pristine and new. The small few pieces of furniture that I owned were all thrift store finds that Jeff had promised to restore. From the black leather sofa, monstrous television and huge crystal chandelier in Nate's living room, I could tell that he had spared no expense on his living space.
"This place is beautiful," I breathed. Nate flopped down on the couch and I took that as an invitation to do the same.
"It's OK. You get used to it after a while. But I'm glad you like it," he said, "Look, we're still kind of wet from the sea. Why don't we get cleaned up? I'll use the shower upstairs and you can shower downstairs. No funny business, OK?"
I nodded.
"No funny business, deal."
Nate was a perfect gentleman, bringing me towels and explaining how to use the shower while I tried not to make a big deal at how incredible his bathroom was. I had never seen so much white and turquoise marble in one room.
"So, you good to go?" he asked and I nodded eagerly.
"Yup, thanks."
He left me alone then and I couldn't help but feel slightly disappointment. Wasn't he supposed to be attracted to me? I thought he might make a bigger deal out of the showering alone thing. The biggest question of all was why on earth was I so unhappy.
I turned on the shower and stepped in,
