DANNY
I didn't wake up until almost 11, and wondered why the girls had let me sleep in. I seemed to remember Rachel saying she wouldn't be hanging with us today. Had she really told me that... this morning? I shook my head to clear it. Did that really happen, or was it a dream?
I was naked. My underwear was on the floor next to the bed. It was caked with half-dried cum. Holy shit, Rachel really had been in here this morning, half naked, giving me a hand job.
I seemed to remember her dry-humping me as well. No, that part must have been a dream.
Whatever. Eleven o'clock, and certainly Sandy should have woken me by now.
I got dressed and walked out of the guest room. On the hallway floor by the door, there was a pair of girl's shorts. But Rachel had been wearing her shorts, hadn't she? Weird.
I checked the kitchen and the front porch. Nobody was there. So I went to Sandy's bedroom, and knocked on the door. There wasn't any response, so I slowly opened the door. Sandy was lying on her bed, over the blanket, wearing just a sleeveless top and panties. "Oops," I said. "Sorry. I'll go."
"No," she said, "it's alright."
"Are you feeling okay?"
"Yeah, I guess. Just girl stuff."
"Oh," I said, feeling myself turn red. "You mean your... oh."
She laughed. "No, not that. I finished that a couple of days ago, just before you got here."
Way
more than I needed to know! "I mean I was just feeling... I don't know, bummed out about a bunch of things."
"Anything I can do to help?"
"No, no I'll be fine. Listen, it's supposed to be crazy hot out today. Do you want to hike out to the lake again?"
"Without Rachel?" I asked.
"Oh. Okay," Sandy said. "If you don't want to..."
That was a stupid thing for me to say: Sandy didn't have to know I kind of had Rachel on my mind after what we'd done this morning. "No," I said. "Sure. Do you want to eat first?"
"I can wait if you can," Sandy said. "I'll make some sandwiches if you'll grab some Cokes out of the garage fridge." She rolled out of bed and hopped to her feet. "Seems kind of weird to put my shorts back on when I'll be taking them off again as soon as we get there, huh? But I guess I can't go walking to the woods in my underwear, huh?"
I had half a mind to dare her to do just that, but I didn't think she'd appreciate the humor. I also wondered where her shorts were: they didn't seem to be on the floor near her bed anywhere. It's not as if she could have been wearing those shorts that were outside my door. Well, whatever. I headed to the garage to get the Cokes.

Before Danny came into my room, I'd been lying on my bed for about an hour and a half, trying to sort things out in my head. On one hand it was probably a good thing I'd slipped out of his bed earlier rather than letting him, well, fuck me. On the other hand, it was a tremendous let-down, going from being insanely horny and on the verge of having a hard cock push into me, to lying on my own bed alone, feeling depressed, all over the span of about five minutes.
I was surprised at how much much it bothered me hearing Danny call out Rachel's name. I mean, I shouldn't have been surprised -- they were flirting blatantly enough at the lake yesterday and I'm just a cousin, after all -- but still... I did want them both to be happy, of course, but I also didn't love the idea of them being a couple for the next two weeks and me being the odd man out.
And yeah, I was bothered by the possibility that I'd still be a virgin when we went off to college next month and Rachel wouldn't be.
Does that make me a bad person?
Well, at least Danny wouldn't be taking anybody's cherry today, I thought, and I picked out a pair of shorts from my dresser. I looked over at the door to make sure it was closed, then stripped off my tank top. Bra or bikini today? I wondered.
DANNY
Sandy seemed okay the whole way through Brenner's Woods to the lake, and while we were eating lunch; but seemed a little tense when we were cleaning up.
"Ready to cool off?" she said, looking over at the lake.
"Sure."
We both kicked off our shoes, pulled off our socks, and stripped off our shorts. And I was pulling off my shirt, she said, "Danny, I have to ask you something."
