Hidden in plain sight

Jason looked down at the vision in red and felt unable to tear his eyes away from her. He had to admit she looked absolutely beautiful in what she was wearing. Hearing her sweet coaxing words made it very difficult for him to stay mad. He was feeling like he was being wrapped more and more around her little finger. He had no logical arguments to bring in, but he wasn't willing to yield. He couldn't have her have all the power in this relationship! Jason freed one of his hands and stroked the side of her face with his thumb. "Really? You promise?" Jenny nodded with her big brown eyes rivaling that of a puppy begging for food. "Let me take a good look then." Jenny took a step behind raising her arm in the air, as she followed the movement of his hand. She even did a little spin to allow him to see her from all sides and angles.

Jason nodded as if approving her choice, hiding his real thoughts. "Maybe you are right. On second look, it might not be as bad. If a chance is what you want, I guess I shouldn't give you such a hard time." With gentle eyes he looked down on her face and freed his second hand as well to pull her into a hug as he let out a defeated sigh. Jason wanted to make her feel like she had won before he would strike back. He needed her to have her guard down for his plan to work. Jenny returned his hug and wrapped her arms around his back. In the distance all eyes were secretly directed at them and watching their every move. When they saw this image they thought that Jenny must have won and had calmed Jason for them, so they sighed a small breath of relief.

However all were startled when all of a sudden they heard a shriek coming from that direction. The shriek had belonged to Jenny who had been startled by Jason's sudden movement. Jason had lifted her up in one fell swoop, taking advantage of her unstable footing as she was hugging him while on her tiptoes. While holding her in a princess carry Jason was heading towards the pool in a rapid speed. "If you wanted a swim, all you needed to do was ask" Having no time to comprehend nor react, Jenny's body was forced to take what was coming one step at a time. All looked as he took one step, another and splash! Everyone was trying to grasp what had happened as they wiped the splashed up water from their faces and bodies. Jason had jumped into the pool with Jenny still in his arms. While under water Jason grabbed hold of Jenny, who was trying to swim back up for air. He pulled her to himself and placed his lips on hers as he gave her some of his air while sneaking in a kiss. This was his way of exacting a punishment and getting a reward at the same time.

Jason tangled Jenny into a kiss until they were both out of air and used his long legs to push them both back up. Jenny was completely out of breath as her chest heaved up and down against Jason's body. Her hands were resting on his chest as he was holding her tightly by her waist. With a mocking voice he whispered by her ear "How was that for a swim?" Jason retracted his head to show off the teasing smile he had on his face, which earned him an angry glare from Jenny who didn't expect him to be so cunning. His tricks didn't stop there as he had apparently found a way to have Jenny remain in that bathing suit without having anyone actually see it. If she was in the water, the image was blurred by the small waves being formed by the movements of herself and others, as well as the water filter. When she wanted to get out, he would make sure to step out right behind her to block the vision of her back with his. He did the same to the front by standing in front of her as she dried herself with a towel, leaving everything that could be seen for his personal viewing.

He had convinced her to follow the other couples in sharing a sunbed together and to use his body to lean against. This way he could hide her more easily. If she wanted to lay down and tan, he would use the parasol and his overshirt to hide what he could hide, by using the sun as an excuse. He knew her neck burned more easily and she didn't handle direct sunlight to her head well when it was for long periods at a time, so he used this information to his advantage. When she wanted to tan her back, he would let her lay down on his chest. If she wanted to play something, he would be her opponent. Using the power he had over the others, he managed to keep them where they were when she was not covered. This way she was perfectly hidden in plain sight. He had even succeeded in applying the sunscreen on her back and shoulders as no one else dared to get close enough to rob him of this task.

Though Jenny was aware of what he was doing, she couldn't really say anything about it. He had done everything she had asked. He hadn't gotten angry at Sophia and Julia for helping her pick this bathing suit. He hadn't made her change or insisted on shopping for a new bathing suit. She had been able to swim, tan, read. Whatever she wanted, she could do. All he had done was be calculative and meticulous, appearing beside her, in front of her or behind her, using his body as a shield for the protection of his queen from the eyes of other men. So all she could do was sigh as she had to admit defeat to the ways of this petty and silly man, laughing at how far he was willing to go. With her white flag in hand, she let herself fall in his embrace as she enjoyed the comfort of his chest while basking in the sun.
