Hit me with your best shot, fire away!

“Hmm, hmm hmm…” Dani hummed to herself as she fixed up a protein smoothie in the banquet hall. She couldn’t believe she was actually looking forward to her date today!

Dani had planned a day of exercise to whip him into shape. Nick had started getting a little flabby in the years since she last saw him, and a bit of a workout would help him shape right up. To suit that purpose, she’d managed to squeeze herself into an old pair of running shorts, and a sports bra she’d bought the other day. Even if she wasn’t trying to seduce him, she hoped that a little bit of skin exposure would win her some points in the popularity polls, since the audience seemed to like her new, feminine appearance.

If she ranked higher in the polls, she got more BP. With more BP, she could purchase more clothes she actually wanted to wear. It was simple enough math that even she could figure it out.

“Is that a milkshake?” Kim asked as Dani sat down at the table. She and Mary were the only ones there at the moment, since Carly had decided to sleep in.

Dani flashed a grin. “You know it! Sylvia left me a big box of protein powder, and I’ve been mixing up some shakes for my morning workouts.” She slapped her exposed stomach. “Gotta get as much of the old me back as possible.”

“Um…”

Dani looked up from her omelet, surprised to hear Mary’s voice. The redhead was staring at her, clearly nervous about something.

“Yeah? What is it?”

“Are… are you… you seem to be looking forward to your date with Nick?” She mumbled out.

“I mean, sure I am. But it’s not a date,” Dani corrected her. “We’re just gonna be two buds hanging out, getting some exercise.”

Mary didn’t look convinced.

“But should you really be showing him that much skin?” Mary asked. “He’s a boy, after all… if he sees you dressed like that, then he might-!”

It was too scandalous to say!

“…Pounce!” She managed to find an appropriate word that she could say without embarrassing herself too much. It didn’t have the intended effect, though.

Dani burst out laughing.

“Sorry, sorry, but what? Nick’s going to pounce on me? Oh, that I’d pay to see!” She cackled.

“He could!” Mary wailed. “He a boy! With… urges. Unclean thoughts. He might… I don’t know!”

“Okay, Mary, thank you for being concerned about me,” Dani smiled. “But trust me. If Nick tried something? I’d break his arm. Just because he could push you down, that doesn’t mean he can get the better of me.”

“M-Me…?” Mary squeaked, turning pale.

Kim frowned. “Dani, please don’t joke about stuff like that. Mary’s date is tomorrow, and she’s worried about it.”

Dani blinked. “Worried? Why?”

Mary shivered, staring down at her lap. “B-Because Nick… if he tried something wicked, then… I would have no chance of stopping him… I’m not strong like you, I can barely do the chores around the farm like my brothers, I-"

She was starting to hyperventilate.

“Hey, hey, it’s okay,” Dani said, scooting over so she was sitting next to Mary. “Believe me, you have nothing to worry about. Nick’s a great guy! He wouldn’t do anything to hurt you, I promise.”

Mary gazed up at Dani with wet eyes. “A-Are you sure?” She whimpered. “Because Holly said…”

“Holly said what?” Dani scowled. “That Nick attacked her?”

“N-NO!” Mary sputtered, shaking her head frantically. “She said… well, um… Nick, he… he was trying to… to get with her, and she… she told him no, and then, well…”

“He tried to pressure her into doing something?” Dani prodded.

Mary shook her head again, taking a deep breath to clear things up.

“When Nick and I were in school, we were very close. But Holly was my friend as well. And I thought… well, I thought Nick, maybe…”

She fidgeted with her fingers and blushed, smiling in spite of herself. Then her face turned sad. “I thought he was a nice boy… maybe even the one. We got along so well... But then Holly told me that I should be careful around him. She said that he asked her out, and when she said no, he stopped helping her study for her test and stopped talking to her completely. She felt that he was only trying to help her in order to date her. And then he was trying to get close to me, next! Doing something like that, jumping from one girl to another so easily… it’s terrible! Everyone else in the writing club agreed, and we all kicked him out for being a jerk.”

Dani frowned. “I don’t know, that sounds a little weird to me,” she said. “So he cut off contact with her because she turned him down, and then started putting the moves on you, instead? That doesn’t sound like the Nick I remember.”

“Well, what was he like when you knew him?” Kim asked. She knew the least about Nick as a person out of anyone on this island, so she was curious what the other girls thought about him. Mary had seemed too fragile to try and work for information before, but now she was like an open book.

“I don’t know, he was just… passive, I guess,” Dani shrugged. “I mean, he wasn’t subtle at all, I could tell he was developing a crush on me pretty hard. But I’d just dropped out of art school, see, and I was finally starting to be honest with myself that I liked girls, and well… your best friend having a crush on you? That’s the sort of awkwardness that I try to avoid. So I just kinda ghosted him. Stopped taking his calls and texts, just pretended he didn’t exist. But he never tried to pressure me or anything. Even now, I don’t know if he ever would have confessed to me.”

Mary frowned. Dani’s story didn’t help convince her of anything.

Dani sighed. “Look, Mary, I’m not saying Nick’s the perfect guy, because he’s not. But I know him. Or at least I did. And from what I’ve seen of him since we came here, I don’t think he’d hurt you, or pressure you, or anything like that. Look, maybe the whole mess with Holly was just a misunderstanding. All I’m saying is keep an open mind.”

“I-I guess…” She mumbled, nodding obediently. It was easier to agree with Dani than try to have an argument with her. But now that Dani had put that thought in her head, she was trying to remember all the time she had spent with Nick, and their growing mutual crush. It seemed so real and so pure. He hadn’t done anything objectionable with her directly, he’d always been a perfect gentleman with her. Holly had been the one to tell her about all the bad things he’d done.

Maybe I should judge him with my own eyes first, she decided. _After all… it’s not like I can get out of my date tomorrow._

“You know,” she said thoughtfully, “at the time, I was actually surprised that they’d broken things off the way they did.”

“Holly and Nick?” Dani raised her eyebrow. “Why?”

“Well… before they stopped talking to each other, Holly positively adored him,” Mary explained. “They were so close that most of us thought they were already dating. Which is why we were all so confused when she turned him down. I guess her shift in attitude was so drastic, and the way she talked about him, we all assumed he must have done something…”

Dani frowned. That sounded completely different from the Holly she’d come to know over the last few days. The girl was a total sweetheart, but when the subject of Nick came up she turned completely hostile.

“Ahem.”

Dani glanced up to see Sylvia standing next to them, pointing at a watch.

“I do believe you’re scheduled to be somewhere?” The blonde cheerfully reminded her. “As nice as it is to see you girls all getting along, the master shan’t be kept waiting!”

Dani grinned. “Yeah, about that! Actually, I was wondering if you could do something for me…”

---

When the elevator doors opened, Nick expected to see Dani waiting for him. He doubted she’d be dressed up in anything fancy, since, well, lesbian. Of all his “dates” this would probably be the furthest one from an actual date, depending on how homicidal Holly would feel.

So when he saw Sylvia standing there instead, he wasn’t sure what to think.

“Where’s Dani?” He asked, looking around for the tomboy.

Sylvia cleared her throat. “Dani has asked me to pass along a message,” she answered cordially. “Please meet her out on the beach. Your date will begin then.”

Nick blinked, not sure why Dani would want him to meet her all the way out there. But he shrugged, and took the elevator down to the lobby. A few minutes later he was walking out the door of the hotel, when he saw Dani standing in the middle of the path down to the beach, wearing shorts and a sports bra and a pair of running shoes. Her long blue hair had been tied back into a ponytail that flowed down her back, and her creamy skin shone from sunscreen.

“Hey Nick! Ready for our ‘date’?” She asked, making quotation marks with her fingers.

“Uh… yeah… Dani, what’s up? What’s the plan for today?” He asked.

“Well,” Dani grinned, walking over to Nick and jabbing him lightly in the stomach, “I noticed you’re getting a little flabby around the midsection here, bud! So I thought that you could use a good workout!”

Nick felt like he was going to be sick.

“Um, that’s really not-"

“Dude, I’m just looking out for you!” She urged him. “Think about it. You’re stuck on this island either way, yeah?”

“I-I mean, I guess, but what does that-“

“That means it’s the perfect time to work on your body!” Dani exclaimed. “Just think about it. There’s a full service gym up there, yeah? In the hotel, I mean. They can make you a ton of healthy food, you can see a doctor, all sorts of great stuff to help you get back in shape.”

She shrugged. “I know that you might not want to work out on a vacation, but hey, it’s a good way to work out some stress. And I’d say that, before long, you’ll end up being very ‘stressed’,” she laughed, slapping him on the back.

The motion caused her chest to bounce in her bra, which Nick noticed. He turned red. She… was raising a very good point. With Carly strutting around in sexy cosplay, Dani’s new figure, and Dakota’s body, which seemed somehow perfectly attuned to his tastes, he was facing temptation on all sides. And this was just the first round of transformations! He couldn’t imagine what might happen to the girls next.

Maybe Dani had a point that he needed some method of “release” that didn’t involve sex. If he let himself get too worked up, he might end up doing something he’d regret.

“Sure, I guess we can work out for today,” he relented, and Dani punched the air in triumph.

“Alright! That’s the kind of can-do attitude I want to hear, Nick!” She grinned. “So I thought that today, we could go for a quick jog! Just a half-hour, nothing too strenuous. Sylvia said there’re some great trails for running down by the beach.”

“Works for me,” Nick nodded. While certainly not an athlete of Dani’s caliber, he’d done a bit of jogging. Nothing intense, just cardio every other day to keep in shape. That had been years ago, though, back before his life had collapsed on him.

“First things first, though, we need to do some stretches,” Dani said. “After all, you’re out of shape, we can’t have you pulling a muscle! So just watch and do what I do!”

Nick nodded, relieved he’d dressed light. Thinking he didn’t need to look good for Dani, of all people, he’d just worn a t-shirt and shorts. A good call to make, in hindsight.

Dani got started with her stretches, and immediately Nick found it hard to concentrate. The bra she was wearing might have been designed to contain her amazing chest, but it was clear that she was still not used to carrying the extra padding. When she did her calf raises, her breasts bounced. When she did her toe touches, they hung down in front of her like the udders on a cow. And her side to side lunges!? Dani’s boobs were shaking so hard as she went left to right that Nick thought they might up and leap out of their cage!

In short, by the time they’d finished with their routine, Nick’s muscles felt very loose and flexible- save for one, that was as tense and throbbing as it could get.

“Uh…” When Dani straightened up, she stared down at the tent in Nick’s shorts, and her face turned red. She glanced down at her boobs and realized what sort of show she’d been giving him, and turned away in shame.

“J-Just ignore it!” She ordered, putting the thought of hard Nick dick out of her mind. “We’ll run! Yes, we’ll run it off!”

And so Nick’s date with Dani began with him jogging for the first time in years, with an erection pushing against his leg.

---

Thankfully, by the time they finished up their run, Nick didn’t even have the energy to stay excited. He was completely drained, just trying to stay standing at this point. Dani, on the other hand, barely looked winded.

“Not bad, Nick!” She grinned. “You couldn’t keep up with me, of course, but at least you kept jogging the whole time! As long as you keep that heartrate up, you’re getting in a good workout!”

I better be… I didn’t kill myself in this heat for nothing, you know… Nick’s lungs felt like they were about to burst. He wanted to lie down immediately and get some rest, but the road was paved with stone that probably measured at about a thousand degrees. He forced himself to keep walking, even though his legs were like jelly, until he made it to the lobby.

“Air conditioning… oh, sweet air conditioning…” He crooned, collapsing into one of the armchairs. Dani plopped down in front of him and grinned.

“Feeling good? You got a decent enough jog in,” she said. She turned to one of the faerie attendants. “Hey, can we get some water?”

The faerie passed her some bottled water and she took one for herself, giving Nick the other. It was the sweetest thing he had ever tasted, filling him up with more energy than he could have imagined.

“So that was our cardio for today,” Dani informed him. “But the morning’s still young! You had a big breakfast, right?”

Nick thought about the awkward meal he’d shared with Dawn this morning.

“I guess so…”

“Great! Then next is muscle training!”

Dani hopped up, ready to get to it, but then when she caught a glance at Nick’s condition, she reconsidered.

“…On second thought, maybe we can take a quick break,” she admitted sheepishly. “In the meantime, wanna chat?”

“Sure,” he shrugged, leaning back in his chair as he bathed in the cool, refreshing air. “About what?”

“The big stinking apology I owe you, for starters.”

“Huh?” Nick cracked his eyes open and leaned forward, not sure he’d heard that right.

“For ghosting you,” Dani explained. “That was really shitty of me. We were friends, and I just… well, look, this isn’t an excuse, but I was going through a real tough time. And I thought… if you confessed to me, then I would end up losing you for good. I’d turn you down, things would get awkward, and, well, we wouldn’t be friends anymore.”

She sighed. “It was just supposed to be temporary, until I got my head on straight. But then you moved to go to college, and ‘a couple months’ turned into a year, and well… by the time I was at a place where we could have the conversation…”

Dani shrugged. She couldn’t really offer any other explanation. "I'm sorry. It's not how you should treat a friend."

“No, I get it,” Nick nodded. “And yeah, maybe I was a little too clingy. You know, I just had this conversation with Dawn, yesterday?”

“Oh, lord,” Dani rolled her eyes. “Remember how you would always come crying to me, feeling awful about how things went with her? Talking about how shitty it was that she thought you were a stalker, and you were just trying to be nice to her?”

“God, I’m trying to forget that so badly…” Nick groaned, burying his face in his hands.

“Never,” she cackled. “I’ll remind you of that until the day you die!”

“I hate you…”

“I know, I’m so hateable,” she grinned. “But hey, if it makes you feel better, I never thought you were a creepy stalker or anything like that, dude. You were my friend. A friend of the wrong gender for me to find you attractive, but a friend.”

“Still, I was definitely too clingy,” Nick asserted. “I basically shifted my feelings for Dawn onto you, since you were the closest girl in my life. I feel like I have a bad habit of doing that…”

From Dawn to Dani. Then from Dani to Carly, who reminded him so much of Dani because they both had such eager, fun-loving personalities.

Dani frowned. “I, uh… I heard something about that this morning, actually,” she mumbled.

“Huh? What do you mean?” Nick asked, confused.

“About Mary and Holly,” Dani cautiously answered, and Nick’s face took a sour turn.

“…Oh. That.”

“Apparently, that sweet girl thinks you’re a jerk because Holly was going around telling people that you tossed her aside because she wouldn’t go out with you, and decided to put the moves on one of your underclasswomen instead.”

“That’s not how it happened,” Nick asserted.

“I know that’s not how it happened, because I know the kind of guy you are,” Dani said, taking a sip from her water bottle. “So do you want to talk about what did happen?”

Nick sighed and hung his head. “…At this point, I don’t even know, to be honest.”

Dani considered that. She drained the bottle and tossed it into the trash can, standing up.

“Well, Mary’s feeling really anxious about her date with you tomorrow,” Dani said, offering Nick her hand. “If I were you, I’d at least try to explain yourself to her, alright?”

Nick nodded obediently. “Yeah, I will.”

Now that the strength had finally returned to his legs, he followed Dani to the gym. He could already feel his muscles starting to ache from the “training” she had planned.

---

“Dani, I can lift more than 5 pounds,” Nick protested, waving the dumbbell at her.

“…Your funeral, dude,” she shrugged. She’d gone right for the bench press, eager to see how much she could lift. With her new body she felt way stronger than before, and wanted to test herself.

“Are you sure that’s a good idea?” Nick asked worriedly. “That’s gotta be like 450 pounds!”

“480,” she corrected him, sliding under the bar. “Come on, spot me.”

Nick stared at her like she was crazy and she burst out laughing.

“I’m kidding. Trust me, this is fine.” She took a deep breath and clenched the bar, pushing it up and off and bringing it down to her chest.

Nick was shocked at how effortlessly she was pumping the weight. That was almost 500 pounds! And she was hardly working up a sweat!

“I told you… ha… this is nothing,” Dani said as she finished her set, sitting up. “World record’s over 600.”

Nick shook his head in disbelief.

“Still, I need to get used to this new body,” Dani said. “Before I topped out at around 300, which is really awesome, but damn! And I barely even had to work for it!”

“I can just imagine you going to the gym right now,” Nick laughed. “With that body of yours, no one would think you could lift nearly that weight!”

“I know right?” Dani snickered. Then she sighed. “Well… even if I’m still this strong… I’ll probably end up getting hit on by a lot more guys if I look like this, huh?”

Nick winced. He realized how much of an ass he’d just been. Dani’s new body was still a sensitive subject.

“Hey, I didn’t mean to-"

“No, it’s fine,” she shook her head, forcing herself to smile. “Dudes would hit on me all the time, regardless. And honestly? Besides the fact that the stores seem dead set on forcing me into skirts, I’m actually kind of liking this new body.”

“…Really?” Nick was surprised to hear that, given her reaction.

“Like, don’t give me wrong, if I could get my old muscles back, I’d do it in a heartbeat,” Dani assured him. “That’s why I’m working out so hard, after all, to tone myself up. But honestly? Looking a little girlier… there’s nothing wrong with it. It’s just not quite me.”

“Well if you’re lucky, the audience could vote for your tomboy choice next time,” Nick offered hopefully.

Dani laughed, but it came out in a mocking way, like she didn’t take the possibility seriously. “Yeah, maybe… on the other hand, at least this way I look hot when I check myself out in the mirror!”

“Oh, really?” Nick raised his eyebrow, not sure if he was supposed to say anything.

“You can agree with me, dude, I know this body is a smokeshow,” Dani grinned. “But yeah, the other day when I was out shopping with the girls, I found this killer blue dress that goes just perfect with my hair! Who knows, maybe if I’m low enough in terms of VP, I could show it to you one day,” she said, wiggling her eyebrows.

Nick winced. “Please don’t do that…”

“Do what?”

“Don’t play into Sylvia’s game,” he begged. “You get that’s what she wants from you, right? All the girls? She wants you to try harder to appeal to me, to earn those Victory Points so you can get ahead. But I don’t want you to change who you are. Appealing to me? Trying to look sexy for my approval? Why?! You shouldn’t feel like you have to do anything you don’t want to, okay?”

Dani stared at him, a little stunned. “Well, I gotta say, this is my first time getting shut down by a guy,” she laughed. “Look at the big man here, giving a speech in response to a harmless joke! As if I’d ever do shit to make YOU horny!”

She socked him in the arm and Nick felt his face heat up with shame.

“I-I just…”

“I know. And I appreciate it. But the day is young, and we have working out to do! So let’s get-"

Her voice trailed off as the doors to the gym opened, and two people entered.

Nick winced when he saw the first one. Holly was wearing sweats and a t-shirt, and she made a sour face when she met his gaze. Then he looked past her and saw who she’d come in with, and his heart stopped for a moment.

“…Oh yeah, is this the first time you’ve seen Dakota since her makeover?” Dani wondered.

It was. And it had caught Nick completely off guard. She’d looked appealing before, but now she was hot. Her curly black hair was cut short to just the length he preferred, and her golden eyes were accentuated by a slight touch of eyeshadow causing them to stand out even across the room. Like Dani she was wearing a sports bra and shorts, but where Dani hadn’t given a damn about her appearance, it was clear that Dakota had picked on out that was intended to look as sexy as possible. And it was working.

Their eyes met momentarily and she turned away from him, smiling slightly, and joined Holly on the treadmill.

“Yo.”

Dani snapped her fingers in front of Nick, startling him.

“H-Huh?”

“You’re supposed to be on a date here with me, remember?” She grinned. “Anyway, do you remember the routine I taught you?”

“Of course.”

“Great. Just do two sets of that. In the meantime, I’m going to go get some cardio in. Believe it or not, just a half-hour of light jogging isn’t enough to get me going,” she grinned, heading for the treadmills as well.

While Nick was getting to work adjusting the weights to the proper level for his lack of skill, Dani got on the treadmill next to Holly and set the speed to a level where she could work out and still talk comfortably.

“How’s your date going?” Holly asked, glancing up at her.

“Going fine,” Dani replied. “Looking forward to yours?”

“Of course not,” Holly grunted, rolling her eyes.

“So what’s up with you and Nick?” Dani asked. “For real, I mean. Mary told me some stuff, but it just seems kinda… I don’t know. Like maybe it’s one big misunderstanding? Because Nick’s a nice guy, he wouldn’t try to help you study just to get in your pants.”

“…I know.”

“You know?! Then why’d you tell Mary that?”

“I didn’t,” Holly hissed. “I just told her that’s how it felt. Because that was how it felt. You imagine what it’s like for a guy to confess to you, and then the second you say no he wants nothing to do with you again. It sucks.”

“Okay, yeah… I get that…” Dani admitted. “But did you guys ever have, like, a conversation? Because maybe Nick was just hurting, and he didn’t want to-“

“He wasn’t the only one hurting,” Holly growled, turning off the machine and storming away, even though she’d only been on for a couple of minutes.

Dani sighed and shook her head. There was a lot going on that she had no idea about. Not that it’s any of my business, I guess…

Prying was rude, but at the same time… she couldn’t help being curious.

---

After working out, Dani took Nick to the juice bar for some lunch. His whole body was sore, which was why he practically cried tears of joy when she let him know what their afternoon activity was.

Harem Hotel: Resort Spa and Masseuse

“Aftercare is just as important as stretching beforehand,” Dani informed him. “After all that hard work, it’s time to get pampered!”

Nick had never been more grateful for the fact that Dani wasn’t just a gym bunny, she was a lazy gym bunny.

Two faeries greeted them at the door, one in a green dress and one in a blue dress.

“How may we assist you today?” The blue one asked.

“Hey there,” Dani greeted. “He and I just finished a heavy workout! We were hoping we could get a couple massages, and then some rest in the sauna?”

“Understood!” Green chirped. “A couples' massage, and then a rest in the sauna.”

"Couples' massage?" Dani paled. “Wait, no-"

It was too late. The faeries had already departed.

“Um…” Nick glanced at Dani, whose complexion had gone from pale to red. She glanced away from him and cursed under her breath.

A few minutes later, the faeries had led Nick to a separate changing room and stripped him of all his clothes, leaving only a towel to cover his modesty. Thankfully the fae were the size of his hand, because that made things a lot less embarrassing for him. He was led from the changing room to a room that was pure white, with two massage tables set up. And across the room, entering through the other door, was Dani, also clad in a towel.

“It’s not a big deal,” she asserted immediately, flashing him a smile. “Trust me, I’m not bothered at all.”

She gestured to the towel. “I’m still covered, after all.”

The faeries asked Nick and Dani to lie down on the massage tables, and they did. Nick kept his face firmly inside the face cushion, not wanting to risk accidentally spying on Dani’s unmentionables. But the thought that she was just as naked as he was, and right beside him, was causing his penis to start reacting like it had this morning.

Then he felt two small hands on press something wet and warm into his back.

“Haah!” He gasped, nearly shooting off the table. “Wh-What’s that?!”

“Massage oil,” the faerie chirped. “We offer very thorough work here, master! Our special oil will provide comfort and pleasure during the massage, and will help ensure you have an enjoyable time with us.”

“…Okay…” Nick mumbled, readjusting his posture so she could continue. As he felt the faerie’s tiny hands run all over his body, pressing down on spots of tension, he felt… good. It was like all his accumulated stress was leeching out of him. He felt better than he had in months, no, maybe even years, and-

…And his penis was currently digging itself into the panel beneath him.

What the hell? This is just a massage. Why am I as hard as a rock?!

“Haanh!” Dani let out a throaty moan and his penis jerked, aching desperately to feel something warmer than the table mat. It itched so badly, just pleading with him to grab it, and he thought that he was going crazy. He was getting a massage next to Dani, a lesbian! Why the hell did he want to jack off so badly?!

“It’s okay,” the faerie purred into his ear, rubbing her hands along his shoulder. “Just relax. All that tension… feel it draining from your body.”

“Mhmm…” He mumbled, feeling a little drowsy. He began to relax, everything but his penis, anyway, which was throbbing harder than he’d ever felt it before. It was starting to hurt.

“That’s right… all that tension… all that yearning and aching, feel it slipping away… down, down, down… to where it can do the most good…”

Another gasp from Dani drowned out her voice, snapping him back to his senses.

Suddenly, Nick began to wonder if this massage oil was really massage oil at all.

“I-I think that’s good enough!” He cried, shaking the faerie off of him and sitting up. He pressed his hands down hard against his dick, trying to keep it from tenting his towel.

“Nick? What… ahn! What’s the matter?” Dani winced, glancing up at him. Her face was flushed and her eyes were glassy, and he could hear the desire in every pant that escaped her lips. Then her eyes landed on his crotch and she gasped, realizing that he was feeling the same burning pleasure that was coursing through her right now.

Dani was hot. Hotter than she’d ever remembered being. Even hotter than she’d felt having to sleep beside Carly for the last few days. And all that heat had gathered between her legs, urging her to touch herself, to fill herself with something, anything to get some release.

Their eyes met and they both scrambled up. If this massage kept going any longer, it would certainly result in a “happy ending”.

Nick wasn’t even close to being ready to cum in front of one of his female friends, especially not if that girl was a lesbian. And for obvious reasons Dani wasn’t exactly eager to show him what she looked like having an orgasm either.

“We’re done!” She blurted out, turning to the faerie who’d been massaging her.

“Are you sure?” The faerie asked innocently. “Because we’re only halfway-“

“Yes!” She sputtered. “Just… just please, take us to the sauna already!”

“As you wish!” The faerie who’d been massaging Nick replied, flashing a toothy smile. Nick and Dani grabbed more towels, wiping as much of the oil off of them as they could without exposing themselves to the other.

Then pair of faeries led them out of the massage parlor and down the hall to a steam room that looked large, but once inside it became clear there was barely enough room for two people to sit comfortably. There was a very real chance that Nick and Dani could end up touching one another if they weren’t careful.

“Please enjoy your time!” The faeries said as they closed the door behind them. “And don’t worry about making a mess.”

Nick was heating up, and it wasn’t due to the steam. What they’d just said… they were implying that it was okay to have sex in here?! That was _definitely _crossing the line! He risked a glance at Dani and saw that she was just as embarrassed as he was. But she was putting on a brave face, pretending like it wasn’t that big of a deal.

“Come on, I’m sure they just mean, like… sweat or whatever,” Dani laughed. “Come on. It’s not like I care about being naked in a sauna with you! We’re friends. Trust me, there’s not a damn thing I’m thinking about when it comes to you.”

That was a relief for Nick- because he was absolutely thinking about her. Even though he’d wiped away all that oil, his penis just refused to go down, and he was having some serious trouble at this point.

There was a simple reason for that: it had been several days since Nick had last come. The last time he’d jacked off was before coming to this island, which meant it had been over three days at this point. And it didn’t help that the girl next to him in the absurdly cramped steam room was absolutely gorgeous. Dani had always been attractive, but now she was womanly; and his dick could tell, straining violently against a towel that, now that he was aware of it, was far too short to do an adequate job of covering him.

“Hah… hah… this is… pretty exhilarating, huh?” Dani panted, wiping her forehead. A useless gesture considering how drenched she already was. Her soaked towel clung to her like a second skin “I can’t remember the last time I was in a sauna this hot…”

Nick had never been in a sauna before at all, but he knew Dani was right; this was certainly hot! The steam caressed his body, wrapping around him, causing his skin to tingle as it filled the room. And the thicker it became, the hotter he felt. Like he was in the massage room again, getting tended to, only now it was his entire body that was being caressed instead of just his tense muscles.

Damn it, why won’t you go down? He cursed, staring at the bulge in his towel. He’d given up trying to hide it at this point, accepting with shame the fact that Dani could see everything.

Speaking of Dani, she wasn’t doing very good herself. While Nick had the decency not to look at her, he could still hear her breathing growing ragged and more frantic. She was practically panting like a dog, and her thick thighs squeaked as she rocked back and forth on the damp wood.

“Ahn… ungh…”

Is she… moaning? No way, it can't be. But Nick couldn’t ignore the obvious sounds coming from that side of the sauna, or the flashes of movement that he caught out of the corner of his eye.

“…Eeeyin!” She squeaked, and his head shot up, unable to resist the temptation any longer. He was just checking, that’s all. Just making sure she was okay. But what he saw was anything but okay.

Dani’s towel was halfway down, barely clinging to her body. Her face was flushed, but it was clear that her heat wasn’t just from the sauna. She had a hungry, desperate look in her eyes. One hand was squeezing her towel as tightly as she could, trying to keep some semblance of modesty in front of Nick, while the other was firmly pressed down in her lap. Nick realized belatedly how close it must have been to her delta, and realized that Dani was practically masturbating right in front of him.

At roughly the same time he had that realization, he also realized that a hand was wrapped tightly around his dick- his own hand. His penis throbbed desperately in his grasp, begging him to stroke it, pleading for release after so long.

Dani and Nick’s wide eyes met, and their hands clasped against their genitals while their faces turned red with shame. Neither one of them said a word as they stared at each other, and for a single hot moment the world around them no longer existed.

Then they both came to a realization at the same time.

“THE STEAM!”

Whatever was in the steam, it must have been the same substance that was in the massage oil! And they’d practically been bathing in it! Every second they were exposed to the dense fog, their minds were getting hazier and their bodies were getting hotter, and there was no telling what would happen if they stayed in the sauna for another second.

Desperate to get out before they could compromise their friendship, Nick and Dani sprung up at the same time and made for the door.

In their hurry, they completely forgot how slick the wood they were standing on was.

Dani fell first. Still not used to her own strength, she leapt off the bench with a little too much force, tumbling too far forward to catch herself. As she did, her towel, already nearly off, got caught on a crack in the wood and slid off her body, causing her to lose her balance even more. She fell forward, warms windmilling, just as Nick was getting up, and her hand caught against his towel as she attempted to stay upright. Nick held onto it as tightly as he could, but his strength couldn’t compare to Dani’s, and she brought him down with her.

The result of this was Nick sprawled out on the floor, with Dani lying in his lap. Both their towels had been thrown away, leaving their bodies completely exposed. And Dani’s face was pressed right against a very hot and insistent part of Nick’s body.

“Aungh… oooh…” Nick groaned. He’d expected to feel relief from his penis finally being exposed, but it only seemed to make him even harder. His rational thought momentarily lapsing, he thrust blindly at the air, smacking Dani right in the face as she was trying to pick herself up.

“Uuu… wha?!” Dani gasped, not sure what she was looking at for a second. It wasn’t the first penis she’d seen, but this one looked so much angrier than any of her miserable experiences in high school. It was throbbing hard against her face, and she could feel every veiny inch press against her skin. God, it was so hot, it felt like it was burning her cheek! A whimper escaped her lips and she felt the heat in her loins telling her that just once would be fine, it didn’t mean anything…

“Oh, GOD! Unf! Ah!”

Nick’s groans and grunts brought her back to her senses and she recoiled away just in time to see that swollen shaft of meat throb in front of her eyes.

SPLUUUUUUUURRRRRT!

Then she just saw white.

Touched Master’s Penis! +2 VP

First! x2 Multiplier

Facial! +3 VP

First! x2 Multiplier

Nick slumped back against the bench, desperately catching his breath as his body calmed down from the biggest orgasm he’d ever had. The effects of the steam had run their course and he was slowly returning to sanity. Only then did he look down and see the result of his little fall.

Dani stood curled up at his feet, her naked body glistening with sweat and her face absolutely plastered. With a shaky hand she swiped away the thick chunks of seed clinging to her skin, still in a daze. Then she looked at her hand and screamed.

“Eeeyugh!” She scrambled to her feet and fumbled for her towel, breaking out of the sauna as she frantically wiped away the traces of his ejaculate. Nick stumbled out himself a few seconds later, the empty feeling of post-nut clarity quickly filling with shame and guilt.

Showed Naked Body to Master! +5 VP

After a catastrophe like that, Nick expected to be lynched. As he struggled to get his clothes back on, he expected that any second now, Dani would come bursting into the changing room with the other girls, and they’d collectively beat him to death.

But nothing like that happened. He finished getting changed without incident and poked his head out the door, looking around cautiously to see if his “date” was still around.

To his surprise, Dani was waiting for him. She waved at him.

“Dani…”

“Just… just don’t,” she muttered. “It was a mistake. An accident. Let’s just pretend it didn’t happen, okay?”

Nick swallowed and nodded. “Y-Yeah. Alright.”

And with that her smile returned.

“Sounds good! I’m famished. Back to your place for food?”

How could she be okay with what just happened? How could she not be freaking out right now? He couldn’t believe it.

She’s doing it for me, he realized. So I won’t feel uncomfortable or upset.

Dani was an amazing friend. The fact that she’d be willing to overlook something like that astounded him. He resolved not to waste her good will.

A few minutes later and they reached the Master’s Suite. Dani grinned when she saw it, leaping onto the couch.

“Dude! This is so cool! You get this whole place to yourself?!”

“W-Well, not to myself,” Nick said, sitting down in a chair a healthy enough distance away from her. “You know, I have to… well…”

“…Oh, right,” Dani blushed. She’d nearly forgotten about the fact that Nick had to invite a different girl up to his room every night. “So, um… what now? Because I could really use a good steak right now. But after that…”

Their eyes met for a second and they quickly glanced away from one another, embarrassed. After what had happened in the sauna, neither one of them wanted to think about what would happen after dinner.

“L-Let’s just eat for now,” Nick said, heading for the golden table. It had been bare moments before, but after Dani said the word “steak”, two had magically appeared, one for each of them.

The meal was delicious, as every meal on the island had been. But they were only delaying the inevitable. They had to think of something to do to kill some time.

That’s when Dani spotted the large golden TV mounted on the wall.

“Dude, how big is that thing?” She gasped, dropping her fork and rushing back to the couch. “Forget 72 inches, that’s, like… an easy 300!”

She wasn’t wrong. The TV took up practically the entire wall. And it had gotten surprisingly little use since Nick had been here, considering how packed his schedule had been.

Then a devious smile crossed Dani’s face.

“So, what kind of movies can you get for this thing?” She asked.

“Sylvia said I could request anything,” he shrugged.

She wiggled her eyebrows. “Anime time!”

---

“So wait, they’re identical? All five of them?”

“Yeah, that’s the gimmick.”

“Do you have any idea what the odds of that happening are?”

“I’m guessing higher than the odds of you watching this and not picking it apart?”

“…So they all like the same guy.”

“Uh-huh.”

“Why can’t anyone tell them apart? They all have different hairstyles and hair colors!”

“It’s just a visual thing for the audience!” Dani groaned. “Come on, this is a classic, just pay attention.”

“Sorry, I can’t help myself sometimes,” he apologized. Whenever he watched something, he had the urge to analyze it.

“It’s fine. More importantly, you should be paying attention for your sake,” Dani urged him. “Stuff like this could be a useful tool for you in the future!”

“Huh? What do you mean?” Nick asked, not sure what he could take away from an anime about five sisters crushing on their tutor.

“Well, mister ‘harem master’, shows like this are a pretty good guide to how to get multiple girls to fall for you,” Dani smirked. “And there’s a lot more where that came from! Just leave it to me, by the time we’re done here, those girls will be drooling over you!”

Nick groaned. That was about the last thing he wanted. But if Dani wanted to unwind by watching one of her favorite anime, he wasn’t going to argue.

“So who’s your favorite girl?” Dani asked. “I’ve already seen this one so I know who the actual best girl is, but who do you like so far?”

“Um… the short-haired one. The oldest.”

Dani looked at him like he was absolute trash.

---

While Dani chewed Nick out about why he had chosen the (objectively, mind you!) worst girl of the bunch as his favorite, Sylvia watched the comments roar in a debate of their own.

“Leave it to our anime fan to start a shipping war for girls who aren’t even in this harem,” Sylvia snickered. “But my, my, what a shock. I certainly didn’t expect the first girl to get down and dirty with the master on her own accord to be our little lesbian, of all people!”

It had just been an accident. A simple mistake. But that little trip and fall had rocketed Dani into a cushy first place with 15 VP.

As Sylvia turned her attention to Mary squirming around in bed, presumably having a particularly graphic dream, she smiled in delight.

"I can’t wait to see what the other girls do in response to Dani’s little head start…" she giggled to herself, fanning the flames of another shipping war of her own.
