Hello everyone! So sorry this is late, but this is a special chapter! It does NOT align with the storyline! You don't have to read this chapter to keep with the storyline, but it is a celebration of reaching 20 chapters. I will be uploading an actual chapter that does align with the storyline later today or sometime this week.
This chapter also contains one of Nikki's kinks, seeing others tied up.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sydney was rushing around her house, she was gathering up her stuff before she left for her date with Nikki. She quickly grabbed her things and began to rush out the door, but before she left, she checked herself in the mirror. As she exited the door she checked her watch which read 10:52. she quickly straightened her hair out to be less frizzy, and rushed out the door heading to a nearby cafe. Once Sydney arrived, she rushed over to where Nicki was seated. Sydney smiled awkwardly and spoke to Nikki "so sorry that I'm late, I lost track of time.." Nikki cracked a smile and laughed "You're fine Syd, I know how you are with time." Sydney laughed too, and sat down across from Nikki. They sat and talked for a while, eventually standing up and leaving after about an hour, and began to walk to a local park.
Soon they arrived at the park, walked over to the swings to sit and talk on them while swinging. They began to hear a faint group of people laughing and talking, before they hear a loud yell of, "SYDNEY!! NIKKI!!" Before Sydney was tackled off her swing by a female figure. The figure then laughed as Nikki pulled her off, revealing herself to be Aika as Nikki sighed. "Hello Aika!" Sydney chirped out as Nikki waved. Aika laughed again while smiling "Hey guys!" The stood and talked for a moment as the rest of Aika's group approached, turning out to be Ash and Casey. After a few moments of talking, Oliver and Luciano walked up too, quickly immersing themselves in conversation
"I've got an idea of what we can do tomorrow!" Aika cheered out, as attention quickly was focused on her by the rest of the group. "We can go to the beach today! It'll be fun!" The group mostly shrugged and nodded, agreeing to go to the beach together. "Alright! Maybe tomorrow around this time? 11 to 11:30?" They agreed on that time before separating to go pack. Sydney and Nikki walked together before they parting to their own houses. The both began to pack the essentials, sunscreen, water, towel, goggles, and something fun. Before long, they were picking out swimsuits to wear, Sydney choosing a dark green bikini with gold accents, along with a simple heart necklace that Nikki gave her, and Nikki picking out a pink and black two piece with two coral and light pink bead bracelets to go with it.
They met back up the next day, and began to plan who was going to be in what car. They debated over a while, and came to an agreement. The groups ended up being finally picked after about a solid 20 minutes.
CAR ONE
Nikki
Sydney
Casey
Oliver
CAR TWO
Aika
Luciano
Ash
They soon settled into the two cars, and began to drive toward a local beach. Sydney and Nikki sat together in the back, while Casey and Oliver sat in the front seats. Sydney ended up falling asleep leaning on Nikki, and Nikki petted her head as she slept on her shoulder. After a few hours of driving, the group arrived at the beach, and Nikki woke up Sydney. The group got out of the cars and stretched, grabbing their stuff from the trunk. They quickly set up before heading to the changing rooms and getting into their suits. The first people to come out were Ash, Casey, Oliver, and Luciano. Ash's swimsuit was black trunks with grey highlights, Casey's was a solid light blue, Oliver's was a simple pastel yellow with pink palm trees, and Luciano's was a red pair of trunks with black stripes on the bottom.
The girls soon came out too, Aika in a black two peice suit with connecting bits around her neck, sides, around her uppers hips, and connecting the top to the bottom with a strap. Nikki came out in her pink and black two peice, and Sydney came out in her green and gold two piece. The group quickly separated to do their own things, Aika rushed off to go tan, and the boys went off to play volleyball together. Nikki decided to sit in the sand and create stuff there, Sydney decided to wander through a nearby small forest grove. About three hours pass, and Sydney is still in the forest grove, absolutely no clue as to the panic everyone in her group is going through. The first one to notice that she was gone was Nikki, who was looking for her to show her the sandcastle she had built. How Aika found out was Nikki asking her if shes seen Sydney
The boys found out when they both came over screaming about Sydney being gone. They quickly spread out to different areas of the beach, asking others if they've seen her, until Nikki got a lead of her being near the small tree grove. She soon found Sydney sitting in a small patch of flowers in a clearing. "Sydney! Oh my god I thought you were dead! Or kidnapped!" Nikki began to cry as she hugged Sydney tightly to her chest. "I'm alright, really Nikki, don't worry." Sydney began to pet Nikki's head to soothe her, and took in a deep breath, "As an apology, I will let you tie me up when we get home, okay?" Nikki sat in slight shock for a second, but then nodded, and slowly stopped crying. After a moment, they both stood and walked out of the grove, finding their friends almost immediately with them fussing over the both of them. After a bit of babying them, the group packed up their things and got into their seats again. Nikki was nervously bouncing around the whole time, designing in her mind what she was going to do once she got home, and running her fingers through Sydney's hair.
After about 5 hours of driving, they finally got back and separated to go home. Nikki quickly dragged Sydney back to her house, chatting and laughing with her the whole way as they cracked jokes. They soon reached Nikki's front door, and she unlocked it, they both entered and stood in the front hall for a moment, "Are you sure you want to do this?" Nikki asked her quietly ((consent is important kids)), Sydney nodded in response "Yes, I'm sure I want to do this." Nikki smiled softly, gently grabbing her hands and pulling her into a room with rope hanging on the walls. She picked up some of the rope, and had Sydney strip down to her swimsuit, and then began to tie rope around Sydney's body. After about an hour of knots and occasional "ow's" from the ropes being a bit too tight, the rope was done, and Sydney had her arms tied to her sides and hips, along with ropes wrapping around her middle with the knots in the front, bottom near her lower area, around her collar bone, and wrapped like straps around her shoulders. Nikki stepped back in awe of how amazing Sydney looked to her.
Sydney took a few careful steps forward, walking toward Nikki as she gained confidence in her steps. She was then standing in front of Nikki, as she leaned forward and pressed her lips to Nikki's. Nikki quickly wrapped her arms around Sydney, pulling her closer as she kissed back. Nikki's hands ran along the ropes, feeling the knots and pulling around at them. Nikki pulled away from the kiss, gently panting as she looked at Sydney. She brought her hand up to Sydney's face, gently cupping her cheek as she looked into Sydney's eyes. They stood like that for a while, until Sydney began to fidget, and Nikki untied her. They walked into Nikki's bathroom and she picked up a towel, gently soaking it in warm water. She then wiped down Sydney's body with the warm towel, gently talking to her as both yawned tiredly. Soon enough, Nikki finished wiping down Sydney, and left the bathroom to let her change into some clothes.
When Sydney came out, she was in an oversized tee-shirt of Nikki's and leggings, and she climbed into Nikki's bed with her, immediately curling up next to her under the covers and snuggling with her. They were awake for a little while, just looking at each other while snuggled close. The morning came by rather quickly, and Nikki awoke to the scent of pancakes and bacon. She stumbled out of bed, walking to her kitchen to see Sydney making breakfast for the two of them. She walked over, wrapping her arms around her waist, and gently setting her head on Sydney's shoulder. Sydney giggled slightly, setting down her spatula and plate to turn around and peck Nikki's forehead before plating more pancakes. Nikki smiled, taking two plates and some silverware to set up the table for them. She just set them up when Sydney came in with two plates, one with pancakes and the other with bacon.
Sydney set the plates down, and they filled them, eating their portions while talking easily. They finished quickly and washed their plates, walking over to the couch and putting on a movie while cuddling. Sydney moved a little closer to Nikki, leaning her head on her collarbone while wrapped in a blanket, as Nikki's arms wrapped around her waist. They sat like that for a long while, as rain began to drizzle outside and slowly brought them back from their lovely moment. "I best be going.." Sydney said softly while looking up at Nikki, Nikki nodded slowly, and they both stretched, standing up as Sydney grabbed her things to leave. "I love you" Sydney said to Nikki as she gave Nikki a quick peck on the lips, running through the rain to get to her small home. Nikki smiled faintly as she traced her lips with her finger, she shut her door, going back to the movie while wrapping herself back up in the blankets. She smiled again as Sydney's faint rose perfume floated into the air, and she fell asleep, a smile on her face.
Sydney entered her house, smiling to herself as she grabbed a towel from her linen closet to dry off. She headed to her room to change, quickly getting into a sweatshirt and flannel pants to relax in. She flopped on her back, staring up at the ceiling before turning on a movie and watching it. She heard her phone go off, and checked it, having been Nikki texting her a while ago to make sure she had gotten home safe. She texted back a simple 'Yes, I got home safely! Don't worry!' she then set her phone back down, curling up under her blankets and falling asleep.
