As usual, Scarlet has a plan.

"Hey guys, I have an idea to get Rorke out of here." Scarlet appeared from the horde of women encircling me. She took a quick moment to glance at me all red and naked in front of Sage and smiled with satisfaction. "Someone here is gonna create a distraction. That person will move through the crowd via an opening created by Zayne and Jack. Once these vultures are off chasing new prey, Sage will bring Rorke to the lost and found on the beach to get him something to cover up with."

There were a couple questions I had about this plan. "Um, Scar? Who exactly is going to be this distraction and how can you be sure that all these girls are going to follow them?"

"Allow me to demonstrate," Scarlet's impish smile returned. "Bridget. Santiago. Help poor Avery to his feet. Lift him up by his arms." During my embarrassing photo op, I had completely forgotten about Avery getting beamed with my speedo. Bridget was cupping Avery's face in her hands as if checking for more sand. They seemed to be sharing some kind of look when we turned to them. Avery blushed and turned away from Bridget. The sexy foreign girl appeared to be unfazed; she just smiled and grabbed on to his arm while Santiago lifted the other.

Scarlet took swift advantage of the situation by striding up to Avery, untying the drawstrings of his board shorts, and yanking them down to his feet. Both Bridget and Santiago were so startled by Avery's abrupt nakedness they released his arms mid-pull, causing him to stumble forward. Slap! Scarlet smacked his bare buttocks so hard it left a mark as red as his face was right now. Slap! Another strike on the rear propelled Avery into the mob of women who eagerly turned their attention on him.

"Oh shit, that's our cue." Zayne grabbed Jack by the hand and pulled Jack away from my back to assist Avery who was now being openly molested by the crowd. I almost fell backward once my ass was once again out in the open. Sage grabbed my hands and looked me up and down with interest.

"Looks like there's an opening in the crowd in the lost and found's direction. Shall we make a run for it?" Sage locked her fingers with my own.
