It's the next morning, Ashley wakes up in a sleepy Devin's arms.
"So cute."
"Moof—"
Ashley chuckles and moves slowly under his arms. She goes to shower quick.

"Devin wake up!"
"What? I'm up."
"Get up silly, let's do something."
"Like what?"
"I don't know, what about—"
"What if we do something on our bucket lists? We were talking about that last night."
"Sounds great! But you can't go shirtless."
"Don't you like what you see?"
"I've seen better."
"Maybe you've seen better, but you've never felt better."
"Whatever, hurry up! I wanna get some grub before we go have too much fun!"

Ashley and Devin went and got pizza. Devin drove them both to a private beach.
"Where are we?"
"My brother's friend owns the property."
"Oh?"
"He lets us visit whenever, he and my brother are away at college right now. His family's outta town for a month visiting him."
"Okay, so why here?"
"Well, I thought we could go swimming! Why not have some fun?"
Devin strips down to his boxers and jumps in. Ashley stays on the dock hugging her arms around her stomach.
"What's the matter? Is someone shy?"
"Hey! Don't tease I've just—"
"You don't have to, but I'm not asking you to go naked. Just remember that."
"It's just that—I don't exactly wear regular underwear."
"Are you wearing underwear?"
"Yeah"
"Then just jump in! I'll turn around, once you're in the water I won't be able to see anything."
"No peeking."
"No promises."
"What was that?"
"Nothing!"
"That's what I thought."
