Chapter 16 - Arrival

Once everything was in the car, Rika got in. William noticed that Rika had finished and called Lilith's phone. Are you guys ready?" "We're both in the car, aren't we?" Rika replied in a sarcastic tone. "Good start, your car. The springs are an hour and thirty minutes away, or two hours at most." With those words, both cars rushed to the hot springs. Lillith was subjected to Rika's teasing, hinting, and innuendos throughout the drive. Usually, Lillith would have a retort or come back with her own teasing, but today, she remained silent, lost in her thoughts. As they arrived at the hot springs, Lillith was preoccupied with all Rika had said, unaware whether they were jokes or promises.

Rika's teasing had pushed Lillith near the edge, leaving her just enough room to try to control herself.

 

Lillith and Rika began to unload the bags from the car. Rika then glanced at Lillith, who'd been quiet for a while. Noticing Lillith's internal struggle paired with the dazed look in her eyes and blushed face, Rika started to speak. "Hey, Lil, do you?" Just before she could finish, William's car pulled up beside them. "Damn it, I forgot I had to get gas." Without any hesitation, Rika laughed at him. "Fucking idiot. How are you going to race someone and have to get gas?" Lillith turned her attention towards William's car and couldn't help but chuckle at his forgetfulness. Lillith spoke in a weak voice, almost a whisper. "Idiot!" William huffed upon hearing their remarks, and he started unloading his stuff. Concerned about Lillith, Rika gently placed a hand on her shoulder and asked, "Are you alright, Lil? You seem a bit off."

 

Lillith sighed and forced a smile. "Y-yeah, I'm fine. J-just a little tired, I guess." Rika nodded understandingly, but her eyes still held a hint of worry. "Well, if you need anything, just let me know." "I'm fine, don't worry," Lillith said with a genuine smile. Rika gave a slight nod and stepped back, giving Lillith some space. As Lillith continued unloading her bags, mainly full of snacks, she couldn't manage to clear her head. She hoped it would clear soon and she could focus on settling into her new surroundings. 

 

Just as Lillith finished with her bags, Wiliam stood before her, and Rika lowered his head and spoke. "So you guys won, so you decide what we do first." Rika looked at Lillith to ask what she wanted to do. Lillith noticed Rika's look and immediately responded. "Cave." Rika, hearing this, began to grin, thinking this was the perfect opportunity to tease her and push her to her last straw before making her wait for the evening. "I want to spend some time alone with my Lily, so you're going to take our bags and get our rooms set up and everything while me and her explore some of the cave. This is also punishment for interrupting us earlier." After hearing Rika, William sighed. "Give me your bags.

 

I'll take care of setting up the rooms for you both. But remember, don't take too long in the cave; we have dinner reservations later." As William collected their bags, Lillith couldn't help but feel excitement and apprehension about what awaited them in the cave. Oh, and remember, teasing Lillith too much might not end well for you either." William's words carried a hint of warning as he took the bags from Rika and headed towards the reassert. 

 

Rika chuckled and playfully nudged Lillith. "Don't worry, I promise to behave... for now," she said with a mischievous glint. Lillith rolled her eyes but couldn't help but blush. "I-" Before Lillith could finish her sentence, Rika grabbed her hand and started pulling her toward the cave. Rika's touch sent waves of pleasure into Lillith's "starved" body, pushing her closer to her breaking point. Rika's smile and build didn't soothe Lillith's lust at all.

(5 minutes later)

A woman stopped them once Lillith and Rika made it to the cave. "Sorry, girls, but before you can go in, you must sign an agreement form stating that all injuries, excluding death, are your fault and not our responsibility." Rika's smile faded slightly. "Is that..." "Yeah," the girl was cut off before she could answer. "So are you saying that it's dangerous inside? Are we likely to get injured?" Rika's question flustered the girl. "No, it's not entirely dangerous because we've had people try to sue us because they trip on a rock and get a bruise." 

 

Rika smiled. "Oh, is that so?" The girl was highly flustered, not knowing what to do, Lillith noticed this and looked at Rika, seeing her trying to hold in a laugh. "The structuring might be a little old, but it's checked every few years. The next check is tomorrow if you want to wait." Lillith, tired of watching this interaction, decided to intervene. "Rika, leave the poor girl alone. She looks no older than 18. She doesn't need to be nagged during her summer job." Rika sighed and rolled her eyes. "Fine."

"Thank you," Lillith said, then turned to the girl. "Can we get those papers that we have to sign?" They nodded, then quickly ran toward a booth near the entrance to the cave. With the girl momentarily gone, Rika turned to look at Lillith. "Why'd you stop me? It was fun." Lillith didn't respond and only looked at Rika. Rika returned Lillith's stare and then spoke. "What did you get jealous?"

 

"W-What? Why would I be-" Rika cut her off by grabbing her chin and lifting it toward herself. "There's no reason to be jealous or to hide it." "I'M NOT JEALOUS," Lillith screamed. "Sure, you're not, but just know I only have eyes for you." Rika leaned in and kissed Lillith for a few seconds. "Better? "Lillith, still gasping for air, managed to let out quietly, "I-I'm not-" Lillith was cut off by another kiss that was even longer, causing her to become weak in the knees and pushing her past her breaking point. "Ri-" Just as Lillith went to speak, the girl turned. "Here's the paper."
