After JJ said that, Cory took my hand and helped me stand. Then he led us to the blanket he had laid out. He sat behind me and pulled my body into his arms to hold me. I was a bit wary about laying my back up against his naked torso because I was only wearing a bikini. But feeling our bare flesh touching pulsated that heatwave throughout my body. Additionally, it relaxed me and I drifted back into his arms unable to control my reactions. Across from us on our left to right were JJ, Jay, Aaron, and Nick getting comfortable on their blanket. Jay laid down on his blanket up against his backpack. Once everyone was comfortable, they stared at me with this unusual expression. Which was seemingly awkward for me.
"Alright, you are going to explain what happened?" asked JJ, breaking the quietness.
I could already feel my cheeks beaming a bashfully pinkish-red color.
"Well, I was looking around and decided to explore the bottom but when I used my foot to give me a boost up to the surface was when I got stuck," I explained rather sheepishly.
And it didn't help whenever the guys, including Cory, chuckled lightly.
"Sally, does trouble find you, or do you find trouble?" teased Nick.
"I am starting to question that too," I giggled.
Nick laughed saying, "Cory, I'm going to put your bride in a bubble if she keeps getting herself into trouble like this."
Cory chuckled, "yeah me too." He leaned forward to kiss the back of my head. "You need to be careful when underwater exploring, Sally. Coral rock can be dangerous. It's hard to break and it is very sharp. It will snag you if you touch it wrong. Next time, you wanna go underwater exploring, just tell me. I'll go down with you."
"That sounds like a better idea," I agreed, giggling blushingly.
Jay told me with a delightful smile. "Don't worry about it, Sally. Most of us have been snagged by that coral rock a few times."
Having an idea come to mind, Cory asked. "I'll tell you what since you like exploring so much. Whenever you're done resting. How about I show you something?"
"Are you sure it's safe?" I asked tilting my head up to see him.
Cory gives me a faint mesmerizing smile that makes my heart flutter up my chest.
"Trust me, I'll keep you safe," replied Cory so softly.
From around the framing of my face, he curled a lock of my hair between his two fingers. Again, I found myself melting when gazing into those breathtaking eyes. Anymore I keep getting allured in by his majestic enchantment. That is until I hear his friends chuckle snapping me out of it.
"We can go now," I hinted. Along with the fact I wanted to keep my head clear and get away from his chuckling pals.
Cory says, captivating me with his smile. "Alright, we can if you're ready."
"I'm ready," I whispered, trying to keep my head from drifting back into that Illinoisan he keeps pulling me in.
Still, smiling he starts to move his body to stand. So I leaned up and we both sorta stood up at the same time. Not only did he nod to his friends but I swear to have caught him seeking a mischievous wink at them. As they each returned a suspicious smirk to Cory. He took my hand and we walked off.
Meanwhile, Jay, JJ, Aaron, and Nick crossed their eyes at one another. They saw a change in how Sally was behaving with Cory. As they watched the engaged pair leave. Until they no longer could see them.
Cory and I walked on the rocks and crossed into many other watering pools. Tons of people were chilling all around each different section we went. More than a handful of married couples were in a private spot making out or likely doing more. Since I heard pleasurable groaning in some hidden spots. Luckily, I didn't see anything and only heard their moans coming from behind rocks. But then we walked on this rock-way pathway. That is when I heard loud grunting sounds coming up ahead. My eyes gaped awkwardly to see Mason and Lucy were naked in this one small watering hole. It looked more like a hot spring. Their swimming suits were on top of the rock. While the two of them were having hardcore sex. Lucy was wrapped around his front torso as Mason bounced her body up and down on him. Lucy expressed pain and pleasure as she kissed him hard. With one hand, she cupped his face and practically climbed up his front groaning to the brink of screaming. Their breath was deep and heavy. Sweat was beading down their faces. Oh, this was so weird for me to witness.
Meanwhile, Cory leads us on by seemingly unaffected. Like it was not a big deal to him. Luckily, I didn't see too much of their nudity from them being in the water. And I even turned my face away as we roamed past them. I felt so much better we left that area.
Not that it got any better to run into other married couples making out or straight-out making love in other watering holes too.
Then Cory leads us to another deep watering hole. Thankfully, the couples here were only making out.
Unfortunately, we had to get in and swim across it. Once on the other side, we got back on the rock that was mostly flat pathways. Again, he took my hand and we kept hiking quietly together. We went around this rocky bend and found Daniel here making out with his wife up against this flat rock. She had the most beautiful strawberry blonde hair that I had ever seen. She was so pretty, I thought, as we strolled past them. And again, Cory paid no attention to them kissing romantically smooth and soft. I'd say Daniel certainly did love his wife like how the other men seemingly did too.
Cory walked us far enough that we didn't see them anymore. But then he stopped facing this open narrow passageway in the rock that was a cave. Only it wasn't fully enclosed, I saw when peering in. Had some sunlight entering through the holes from above it. Honestly, the cave looked illuminating and mysterious.
Without saying anything Cory started pulling us in but I yanked my hand stopping him. He faced me, cocking his head with his brow raised.
"What are we doing, Cory?" I asked him suspiciously.
I wasn't sure if I wanted to go inside a cave with him.
"What's wrong, don't you trust me?" asked Cory faintly, smirking.
"I don't know, should I trust you?" I replied with unsureness. Honestly, I wasn't sure if I should go inside a dim-lit cave with him.
