A strong thunderstorm blew through as the sun was coming up Saturday morning. The rumbles of thunder and sounds of rain lashing against the windows woke Andi and Christie. Andi was the first up and went down and started the coffee pot. Christie came down a few minutes later. While they waited for the coffee to finish, Christie asked, "Sleep well?"
"Eventually," Andi responded, "Had a lot on my mind."
"Me too, Hun," Christie said and placed a hand softly on Andi's shoulder.
When the coffee finished, Andi poured each of them a cup and they opened the door to the back deck and watched the storm roll through and enjoyed the smell of the rain as they sipped their coffee. The forecast predicted a beautiful day after about two hours of storms.
Andi got up and made breakfast while Christie sipped her coffee and enjoyed the view outside and of Andi's backside as she fried bacon and eggs. They sat down and ate, then relaxed while the last bands of storms went by and a brilliant sun came out, sparkling off the wet surfaces and puddles that were left behind.
"This is the first time I can remember since I was little that the weekend is just mine," Andi said with a smile. "Growing up there was always something, a practice, a game, a recital, a competition, whatever. Then when I got a job, I had to work weekends. Then college and weekends are study time and sorority events. This summer, when I leave work on Friday, it's just me time."
Christie giggled and said, "Well, sort of. Adulting means housework, grocery shopping, laundry and all those fun things you don't have time for during the week."
"Damn, forgot about that," Andi said and giggled, "Oh well, so much for me time."
"We'll tag team that stuff and have plenty of me time," Christie said and patted her on the shoulder. Let's get the bathrooms, kitchen and vacuuming done this morning, then we can strip the beds and do laundry tomorrow morning. Sound good?"
"Karen's coming over at noon, so I'll get to work," Andi said as she finished her coffee and headed for the kitchen. "I'll take care of the kitchen."
"Thanks, sweetie," Christie said, "Cleaning supplies and the vacuum are on the shelf in the laundry room. Bathroom supplies are under the sink in your bathroom."
Christie headed upstairs and Andi got to work in the kitchen. When she finished, she vacuumed the first floor. It was a quick job since they both cleaned up after themselves as they went. She carried the vacuum upstairs with her when she went up. They both finished and were back downstairs by ten.
"Well, that was quick," Christie said, "I'm starting to like this having a roommate thing. How about we go knock out the groceries?"
"OK, let me make a list and get dressed," Andi said and started looking through cabinets and fridge, making notes on her phone as she went before running upstairs and changing, putting on some makeup and putting her hair up in a ponytail.
An hour later they were back with a load of groceries including steaks and potatoes for their guests today and several good beers for Andi to try. They put the groceries away, got everything ready for grilling, then went back upstairs to get ready for an afternoon at the pool.
Christie chose a more modest bikini since Andi had a friend visiting and to avoid comments from Maddi. Andi wore the yellow version of her bikini, they were the same style, just different colors. Christie went down to the pool to stake out a space as weekends could get a bit crowded while Andi waited for Karen.
Just before noon, Karen pulled into the driveway. Andi went out to meet her and nearly stopped short when she saw her. Karen was a beautiful girl, Andi had noticed that the first time she saw her, but she always dressed very conservatively so Andi hadn't seen her figure. Now, Karen was wearing a red one-piece bathing suit that stood out against her ebony skin, and a pair of cutoff denim shorts. Karen had an athletic body, with well-toned and muscular arms and legs and a large chest and large, muscular butt. Her long braids were pulled up together like a ponytail and hung down to the middle of her back. She was stunning.
Andi gave her a quick hug and told her that her aunt was already down at the pool. They walked down and found quite a crowd there already. Christie saw them and waved, she had staked out four loungers and an umbrella in a spot in the back corner of the grassy area.
The two girls walked up, and Andi introduced Karen to Christie, "Karen, this is my Aunt Christie, Christie, my friend Karen."
Karen extended her hand and said, "It's wonderful to meet you, Aunt Christie."
Christie giggled and looked at Andi and said, "Again with the Aunt Christie, makes me feel so old." She turned back to Karen, "It's so good to meet you as well, Karen and please, it's just Christie."
Karen smiled and said, "OK, Just Christie."
Christie rolled her eyes and Andi laughed.
Karen slid off her shorts and Andi pulled off her coverup, and they settled in on the loungers. After a while, the girls got up to take a swim. As they were leaving Christie said, "Oh, by the way, this place can be a bit of a meat market on weekends. Do what you want, you're grown women, but don't bring em back to my place."
"So, fuck anyone, just not at your place," Andi said, "Got it."
"Seriously, that's what you got out of that?" Christie said and shook her head.
Andi winked and she and Karen walked toward the pool. Christie watched and noticed the eyes of the usual suspects on the girls and as soon as they got to the pool they began to converge. 'Good lord,' she thought, 'they are nothing if not predictable.' For the most part they were harmless from what she had heard and seen, there was one guy who had a reputation that concerned her, but he didn't seem to be around today.
She watched as the girls smiled politely, they were offered beer, which they accepted, and they stood in the pool and talked with a group of about five men who were all in their late twenties.
As she was watching, Maddi walked up and tossed her bag on the fourth lounger and set a cooler down on the ground. She was wearing a modest purple bikini under a white men's dress shirt that she peeled off and tossed in her bag before setting it on the ground and sitting down in lounger. "Hey babe, where's that sexy roommate of yours?" Maddi said, figuring it would irk Christie a bit.
"My innocent, and off limits to you, niece is in the pool with her friend, being wooed by the local pack of jackals," she said with a smile.
"Her friend hot?" Maddi said with a grin.
Talk about nothing if not predictable. "Stunning to be honest," Christie said, "And so out of your league. And didn't you get enough last night?"
"I got enough for last night," Maddi said, "But today is a new day."
"Why the fuck do I put up with you?" Christie said with exasperation.
"Because your life would be so boring without me," she answered, then leaned in and whispered, "and because I lick pussy like no one else you know."
"Eh, debatable," Christie said with a snort.
"Fucking hurtful," Maddi said, feigning outrage.
"Did you bring beer?" Christie asked.
"Of course," Maddi responded,
"Give me one, please," Christie answered and held out her hand.
Maddi fished a beer out of cooler, slipped it into a koozie and handed it to Christie.
