White caps were forming and blowing right in our face. We were in trouble and I took a moment to assess the situation and then yelled, “Follow me to the south side of the lake to get out of the wind. My house is closer.” They both nodded. The rain had started and soaked us further. White caps were breaking into our kayaks slowing us further.
Headway improved when once we got out of the wind. We skirted the south side of the shoreline all the way to my house. Instead of tying up to the dock, I just rolled out of my kayak and stood up in the shallow water and shoved my boat up onto the beach. Eva and Beverly looked like drowned rats as they came in behind me. I held Beverly’s kayak so she could get out, while Eva paddled furiously to just maintain position as she waited for me. Beverly headed for the beach as I helped Eva. Everything in their boats was soaked so there wasn’t anything to save. I pulled their kayaks up on the beach next to mine.
Lightening and loud claps of thunder moved through to the north of us. Thankfully, the worst of it never came any closer than a mile or two. Inside, we all congregated in the kitchen dripping water on the tile floor. We were gasping for oxygen from physical exhaustion. Beverly hugged Eva and between gasps said, “Oh my God. I was sure we were gonna die.” She looked at me and continued, “Thank you Jack. You saved our lives.”
Eva giggled and said, “In more ways than one.”
Beverly laughed but then gave a scolding look to her younger sister. “Seriously Eva, we were in real trouble there.”
Eva got serious for a moment, “I know Bev. I was just trying to lighten the mood.” Beverly smiled and hugged Eva and then they moved over and brought me into their arms. I hugged them back. Eva asked, “Bathroom?” I pointed down the hall and she broke out of our group hug and went that way. I moved across the kitchen and turned on the Keurig Coffee Maker.
I said, “A cup of coffee to warm you up?” She asked if I had tea and I nodded and pulled out a few pods of Earl Gray black tea. I had three cups poured when Eva came out of the bathroom. She was naked except for a towel wrapped around her head. Beverly gave her a disapproving glare. I couldn’t stop looking at her well maintained muscular body and those amazing long legs. She had great boobs too.
Eva said, “What?” Then she turned to me and asked if I had a robe or something dry to put on. I went to the bedroom and pulled my robe off the back of the door. She snuggled into it and pulled the collar around her face and took a big sniff. “Mmmmm. It smells like you.” I thought about what I could bring to Beverly. I hadn’t kept any of Anna clothes and they wouldn’t have fit Beverly anyway. I dug through my bureau and found an old pair of shorts from college that I could no longer get into. Not that I was overweight or even trying to diet. I was a beanpole in college and had filled out since. I brought the athletic shorts and a baggy tee shirt, from the back of my drawer, to the kitchen for Beverly. She smiled as she accepted them and headed for the bathroom.
