With Chloe and Ash on the beach

A little tired after all the swimming, Chloe was the first one to finally head up and out of the water. She really could need some work on her tan after all, just like Heather had told her, and she liked how her borrowed swimsuit opened up in the back for getting some sun on her skin. Perhaps a few days from now she could ask to borrow that string bikini instead, or go buy herself one of her own, if only her pale complexion would allow it at all...

"You really need to be careful, you know...!" Another of the girls suddenly disturbed her in her thoughts, just as she was about to lie down on her towel, and causing her to look back in surprise since she hadn't noticed someone else had followed her up to the beach.

"You'll get a serious sunburn, if you're not going to use any lotion!" Ashley continued, and smiled at the startled redhead while bending down to search the stuff she'd been bringing with her. "You can use some of mine, if you forgot to bring some!"

"Well, yeah..." Chloe admitted, and felt a bit stupid for being corrected by that - and by a girl that in most respects was even younger than herself. (By actual age, if only by a month or so, and perhaps by size of bosom more than by more youthful looks...) She was quick to swallow her pride though, and thanked the cute blonde with a friendly smile, before suddenly remembering a few things from yesterday that could well put a serious dent in between them.

"Did Brandon tell her already...?" She found herself wondering, and could feel a pang of guilt in her chest for what she'd been up to with the other girl's boyfriend. Suddenly her cheeks were blushing in embarrassment, and she was unable to look her in the eyes while accepting the sunscreen from Ash's outstretched hand.

"Hey, don't worry about it!" The girl told her, while seeming as cheerful as always, though it took Chloe a second to realize she may not be talking about the same thing she was thinking of herself. But then again, when she did look up into those gleaming blue eyes, she wasn't quite so certain at all...

"So, you're getting tired of swimming already...?" Ashley continued chatting with her, while glancing back at the ones that were still in the water, before turning back again to give her a quick wink and a mischievous smile - which somehow made it all the more obvious that they were indeed on the same level of thoughts, though she remained as calm and casual like they'd simply been discussing the weather. "Or are you all worn out for some other reason...?"

"Ashley..." Chloe shook her head at the other girl, as she felt that she couldn't quite keep up with this kind of charades. She already hated herself for not being more honest about the whole thing from the start, but really didn't want to drag out on it even more than that. "This... thing, about Brandon..."

"Oh, it's not just about Brandon!" The slender blonde told her - still with that smile on her face, which was starting to annoy her just a little bit -, but then cut herself off as she seemed to notice how Chloe was just sitting there, with the tube of lotion unopened in her hands. "Hey, I could help you with that, if you'd like...?"

"Uh, t-thanks...?" The redhead replied uncertainly, and was a little surprised by her own obedience as she followed the other girl's directions to lie down on her front. Even more surprising though, was the feeling of comfort following the sudden weight of Ashley sitting down on her back - straddling her slender waist, and settling her firm ass down on top of her own.

"Like I said, it's not just about you and Brandon, you know..." The blonde continued, and caused Chloe to shiver slightly for more reasons than just feeling of the coolant liquid being dabbed directly onto her naked skin. Then she slowly started spreading and massaging that sunscreen onto her back, while forwards a bit as to be able to speak to her without being too loud. "I've been with Zack too, you know...?"

"Huh...?" The busty redhead just stared back at the other girl across her shoulder for a moment, while trying to process what was just being said, before realizing that this was the strangest kind of **** - mixed with an apology - that she'd ever heard of in her entire life. But so was the whole situation they'd managed to put themselves in, and she found herself joining in as the blonde on top of her let out a brief little laughter.

"So... you mean that we're somehow even then...?" Asked Chloe eventually, as Ashley seemed to busy herself with working more of the lotion into her back instead of continuing their conversation. "Are you really okay with that...?"

"Well, I'm not too sure myself really..." The blonde confessed, after a moment's pondering, but didn't sound like she'd want to start any arguments about it at least. "There's been quite a lot happening between all of those last few days..."

"You don't need to say that twice!" Chloe was quick to agree - causing them both to smile at one another again -, before turning her attention to what Ash was actually doing with her hands and fingers. "Ummm... I'm not sure the lotion will do any good right there, right now at least..."

"Oh, this...? I'm just making sure it's well spread out!" The blonde just chuckled back at her, and continued working her gentle fingers under the flexible material of the swimsuit, until they were gracing the sensitive outsides of Chloe's full chest.

"Well, perhaps I should have warned you at least..." She grinned mischievously then. "It's not just the guys that I've been messing around with lately..."

"Nuh-huh...?" Chloe could hear herself smiling back in return, while allowing her body to relax under that probing touch - just like she'd done with Heather the other day, which had lead to a whole lot more than just groping... "Well, I'm not entirely new to something... different myself..."

"Oh, really...?" The other girl grinned at her curiously, and put even more of her weight into massaging her back and sides. "Would you care to tell me about it...?"
