âYou sneaky little shit,â I yell at Vince as he treads water beneath me. I pull off the last few inches of my jeans and tell him to watch out. I take a few running steps off the ledge, pull my legs to my chest and jump in a few feet away from him. Under the water I quickly open my eyes and see that despite the cold water Vince still has a significant chubby. Good to know.
I push myself out of the water and the cold shock slowly becomes a refreshing chill. The sunlight filters through the leaves and it feels like our own private country oasis. I swim back over to the rock where Vince is moored and treading water. I make sure my strokes are long and high so he can see as much of my muscle as possible. Iâm not beefy like he is but I know Iâm in pretty good shape and I might as well show it off.
I grab the rock above me and weâre face to face. Naked. Iâve gotten a lot off my chest today and it makes me feel light and open to anything. I kick my legs back and forth underneath me and the frigid cold of the deeper water swirls around my lower body while the humidity engulfs my head and all of the body parts above the water. The contrast almost makes me dizzy. I tread water just looking at Vince. He seems more naked today than he has since he showed up and not just because he isnât wearing any clothes. The macho bravado that kept him at a distance seems to have weakened a bit.

Vince dips under the water and when he bobs up he pushes his hair back from his face and the water drips off his thick stubble. He bites his lip and I can tell he is fighting a gentle smile. He loses and the corners of his mouth push across his face. I smile back but I donât make any attempt to hide it. I let it shine across my face. I want him to know how happy I am to be here with him, for us to be together like this.
âThank you, for letting me open up about myself.â
âNo problem,â he says a bit more coldly than I would like. But I canât let this moment pass without letting him know how much it means to me.
I want to show him.
I plunge under the water and let the cold deliver a jolt to my entire body. When I rise out of the water my mouth searches for his and I kiss him on the lips. At first he is tentative. Iâm sure itâs a surprise but also not really a surprise. I flash to my hand almost touching his in the
