Chloe gets crafty

Chloe had gotten so used to staying out of the social scene, she’d convinced herself it was her choice. What had been a coping mechanism for not knowing how to dress fashionably, how to gossip, or what “girl code” was had worked so well, she’d never missed it. Sure, it would have been nice to go to a few parties, but all the rest of it seemed like work, knowing what colours and patterns were “in”, what lipstick was “cute”, etc. Now after a day of being in with the cool girls, she wasn’t so sure. Confiding in Heather and Ashley, then receiving their confidences back was just different from how she was with Zack and Gavin. The boys were great and all and she would trust them with her life, but she recognized in the girls the kind of friendship she saw in the soccer locker rooms. Around men, even her best friends, there was always an underlying tension. She wasn’t sure if it was a sexual thing or just a disconnect due to gender, but she now realized that when it was only women, she relaxed more easily, as if she was subconsciously holding her breath the rest of the time.

Right now though, she felt like she’d been subbed off during a game or worse, was a sub waiting to get in, unable to play the game yet. It was her own choice, but she felt like she and Heather were in the same boat, then Heather changed the rules. That wasn’t necessarily true, but it felt that way. She needed to do something to get in the game.

As she pondered this, the rest of the group swam back over.

“Wow Heather, you weren’t kidding, the waterfall is like a soundproof room! I could see Zack and Ashley talking, but I couldn’t hear anything!” Gavin said.

“It’s one of my favourite places to come when I visit the cabin. Sometimes I hike over here and read my book where Chloe is, even though the lake is right near the cabin. It’s totally serene” Heather replied.

“Well, it’s gorgeous, but I’m ready to hike back home. I’m making BLTs when we get back, everyone want one?” Ashley asked, then started pointing around the group.

“BLT, BLT, BLT, Chloe, BLT?” Ashley paused on Chloe as everyone else nodded quickly, so Ashley pointed her other finger and did a little dance back and forth that broke Chloe’s reverie as she laughed along with Ashley and nodded. Chloe noticed that Zack was slower to laugh than the rest and wasn’t part of the conversation on the way back to her. She’d have to check on that later.

The group divided along gender lines so they could stand in front to block the rest’s view while they changed back into hiking clothes. Zack snuck a peek at Gavin, just to make sure he wasn’t seeing things the night before; if anything, it was even bigger than he remembered. _That’s soft and after water shrinkage! _he thought.

“Damn Ash, look at that coochie, all shaved!” Heather yelled, the boys’ heads whipping over to her instinctively before they quickly averted their eyes.

“Heatherrrrrr! You’re the worst!” her best friend whined back at her.

“Oh hush, I kept the view blocked,” Heather teased her, before yelling, “hey boys, what’re you looking at?”

“I mean, you definitely yelled out something provocative with only us here in the middle of nowhere. I think you knew what you were doing?” Zack said back, a hint of bitterness in his voice.

“I resemble that remark, Mr. Bishop!” she shot back.

“Uh, I think you mean resent!” Gavin yelled back

“Heather, he’s right, ‘resent’ is usually the line in these situations,” Chloe whispered to her

“I said what I said! Now let’s get a move on, scrubs!”

As they started to head out, Chloe tapped Gavin on the shoulder as he walked past.

“Hey Gav, I think I’ve got a rock in my shoe. Would you stay there so I can use your shoulder for balance?”

Chloe took as long as she could taking off her shoe, then shaking it about, putting the shoe back on, then claiming she could still feel it, taking the shoe off again, and fishing it about. When she was certain the rest of the group had rounded the bend and was fully out of eye- and earshot behind some trees near the waterfall, she finally put her shoe back on again.

“Thanks Gavin,” she said.

“No prob—MFFFMMFFFF!!” was all Gavin could get out before he could feel the collars of his shirt being grabbed as Chloe planted her lips against his. After the initial shock, he held her by the hips and leaned into this wonderful new experience, stabilizing her as she leaned into him and then returning the lean as he kissed her back. A rush of adrenaline coursed through his veins as he experienced a thrilling sensation on his lips.

For her part, Chloe’s heart was pounding so loud, she hoped it wasn’t the only thing he could hear. She’d come up with this plan, but executing it was something entirely different. Hell, she’d been shaking the whole time she’d been faking the stupid ‘rock in the shoe’ thing. Now though, she was kissing a boy! It was so different from when her soccer team had practiced on each other at a teammate’s 11th birthday party sleepover. She felt secure in his surprisingly strong hands and now that he was kissing her back, she decided it was time to incorporate something she’d seen her pornos.

Chloe moved both her hands to Gavin’s face and stuck her tongue out, hoping he would match it back. It took a second for Gavin to get the hint, probably since both their eyes were closed, but he eventually reached out with his tongue as well, the two dancing in mid-air, twisting around each other.

Finally, Gavin released his hold on Chloe and stepped back, gasping for air.

“Chloe, that was amazing, but uh, why?”

“I mean, I wanted to thank you for giving me your shoulder for balance, of course!” she smiled at him.

“Chloe, I’ve spent hours prepping you for a test in a class I wasn’t even taking, and then you snarled at me when I tried to take the last of your mom’s home baked chocolate chip cookies. C’mon.”

“Fiiiiiiine, you’re right. Look, I’m really enjoying being a girly girl these past 24 hours. I’m not saying I didn’t like hanging in the basement with you guys, playing video games, but it would have been nice to have the option, y’know? I know you and Zack are probably a little shocked by how I was last night, but fuck it felt good! Heather and Ashley were treating me like I’m just as hot as them, but then you guys stared too! And Kurt might be an asshole, but he doesn’t lie to make people feel better. He liked the way I looked; it’s part of why I didn’t mind giving him the lap dance. I’m not going to be the same girl in college as I did in high school and if that’s going to be the case, I need my friends to start seeing me as a woman.”

“Well, it definitely worked. I’m ready to see you not just as a woman, but as a stone-cold babe! Last night was hot and so was what we just did. But you kissed me because you’re a woman? Chloe, I thought you knew; kissing me is something women don’t do. Literally, you’re the first.”

“That’s going to change. The way they looked at me, we were all looking at you the same way last night.”

“What do you mean? I didn’t even get to finish my dare. I figured everyone came to their senses and didn’t want to see me naked. Kurt called me big guy, that’s like what every guy who has ever dated my mom called me, or like champ or tiger or sport or some other cutesy shit.”

“It’s pretty obvious by now that you’re not going to believe me when I say this, but I need you to know it is true. I am not fucking with you, I swear on the kiss we just had.”

“Jeez Chloe, just tell me!”

“Gavin, you have an enormous cock.”

Gavin frowned for a second, then started laughing, incredulous at what his friend (a woman!) had just said.

“What?! Chloe, come on. You’ve just never seen any other ones before, you don’t know what you’re saying.”

“Gavin, I have watched so much porn. You’re as big as any I’ve seen.”

“Yeah, I watch porn too Chloe. Don’t they just get guys with small dicks so that the guy feels better about their own?”

“No! Gavin, they get guys with huge penises! It’s like a male power fantasy thing!”

“I dunno, I think that’d be intimidating and guys would lose their boner.”

“Oh my god you’re crazy! Gavin, you know my sex toy story? You’re the size of my biggest dildo.”

“Yeah, but women don’t want a dildo that’s too big. It’d hurt!”

“Hi, woman here. It’s a good hurt.”

“Naaahhh, you’re messing with me.”

“Gavin, I’m not the only one who was shocked. We all were in awe.”

“I mean, Ashley is still a virgin too, I wouldn’t put too much stock in her gauge.”

“Gavin, everyone was in awe. You know Heather has seen enough penis for all of us and you’re the biggest she’s seen. Even the guys were shocked, and you know they’ve been in locker rooms, plus they’ve got their own.”

“How do you know I’m the biggest she’s seen?”

“We talked about it. Why do you think we basically ran back to the cabin?”

“You guys talk about cocks? You talked about my cock?”

“You’re going to have a very fun week if you don’t screw this up, Gav.”

“Ashley said that too! What, is she going to kiss me for reaching something off the top shelf?”

“I thought she was still into Zack, but she definitely liked what she saw.”

“Zack! He’s always been the guy. He’s the only one of us who dated, the one who could have been popular. If you needed us to see you as a woman, why didn’t you kiss him?”

“I liked what I saw too,” Chloe said, shrugging as her lips curled into a cheeky smile before turning and jogging in the direction the rest of the group had gone.

*************

From a ledge just above where the two friends had just crossed a line into something more, Kurt stood up from a crouch, watching Chloe’s round ass bounce away as Gavin struggled to get his bearings from this new information.
