Jess returns to wakefulness in fits and starts. She lies staring at the ceiling for long moments before understanding that she's awake. It's another few minutes before she recalls she's lying in a hotel bed in Mexico and that Jon is with her. Except, when she feels for him, he isn't. The realization fills her with a sense of aloneness that's so intense it frightens her. She rolls over and hugs his pillow to her face. She can smell him on the pillow. She remembers falling asleep with his cock inside her. She touches herself; she's no wetter than usual. She rolls out of bed, pees, rinses her mouth with the complimentary bottle of hotel mouthwash, pulls on her bikini, and heads outside. She scans the beach but sees no one; it's still early. She looks out over the water. Someone is swimming but she can't tell if it's Jon. She hurries to the water, wades in and dives beneath a wave. The water, still chilled from the night, sings over her body. She surfaces, grinning, her melancholy washed away, and blows a kiss to the sun and the sky and the birds, the world in general. She swims toward the other swimmer. It's Jon. They manage to embrace and tread water at the same time.
"I missed you. Why didn't you wake me up?"
"You looked so beautiful sleeping, too beautiful to wake."
"Mmm, you're sweet. You felt so good last night, just being inside me, not doing anything except filling my open places."
"Weird, I feel that way, even though I don't have a hole for you to fill."
Jess reaches behind him and grabs his butt. "Oh, yeah?" She laughs at the look on his face. "Are you blushing baby brother? Why? Because the idea embarrasses you or are you embarrassed because you really want me to do that?" He's quiet. She tilts her head. "Jon, I was jerking your chain but is that something you want to try sometime? It's okay, either way. Please, I wish you'd trust me."
"I do, Jess. I trust you completely. I'm not sure that's all."
She kisses him. "Okay. I'll try to quit second-guessing everything and trust you to tell me, in plain words, not in hints, what you want. Deal?"
He nods.
"I wish I could hold my breath long enough to suck your dick underwater."
Jon chuckles. "That'd be pretty salty don't you think?"
"Your painting of Caitlin and Travis is fucking unreal. It's sexy and powerful and emotional. Looking at it, I want to be them. I want to cry. I want to jerk my panties down and rub myself. It's overwhelming."
Jon's smile is more amazing to her than his painting. "I'm glad you like it. I like it a lot, too."
"You should let Travis pay you when we get back."
He nods. "I know. I know it sounds fucked up but I've never imagined selling my stuff, not that I thought I wouldn't want to, but that anyone would want to buy it."
"I think you could've sold even your old stuff, maybe not enough to live off of but I'm sure you could have sold pieces at small stores, art fairs, that sort of thing. But the stuff you've been doing now is way beyond that. I don't mean to sound like a bitch but I was shocked; I feel like a total cunt, but I never knew you had that kind of talent."
"Don't call yourself that!"
"Huh?" Jess is baffled by his anger. "What? Oh, you mean cunt?"
"Yes. I don't like it when you call yourself a bitch but don't call yourself a cunt. I love you. I can't love a cunt, or a bitch, it's as much an insult to me as it is to yourself."
"Oh, Jon you're such a sweet person, but trust me, I can be both of those things. I can't imagine ever being a bitch to you again but that doesn't mean I can't be those things to others."
"I don't care what you say, and it bothers me a lot that you think that about yourself. I don't see either of those things in you, not even a little bit."
"Uh-huh? Wait until you see me catch someone fucking with you, you might revise your opinion."
"Never, my love."
"That's a song isn't it?"
Jon shrugs. "I leave tomorrow."
"Sssh, I don't want to think about that." She looks around. No one is on the beach or in the water. "Make love to me, in the waves, like you did before."
The water is too deep. They move closer to the shore and he does as she asks. He swears that when they cum they're the tiniest step away from just totally blissing out and merging with the waves, where they'd float, entangled with each other and the water, floating together until the sun grows large enough to boil away the ocean. Even that wouldn't be the end, their atoms would dance together across the universe. He sees his next painting. He'll need more room, more space, more canvas, to have any hope of capturing the infinities he sees in his mind.
Jess is lying back in the water, letting the water lull her worries. Jon's cock grows soft and slipsfrom her.
Which is how Caitlin finds them.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I thought, I didn't know, I'll..." she stammers as she gets close enough to see Jon's cock floating between Jess' legs.
Jess loosens her legs from Jon's waist and stands, adjusting her suit. "We weren't, well we were but we aren't, we're done." She laughs. "For now."
"Still, I'm sorry. I'll see you guys later."
"Have breakfast with us?" Jon asks. Caitlin is surprised.
