Poolside Desire - Word Challenge: #Wet

She stood on the edge of the pool, bathed in sunlight, a blinding beauty; diamonds dusted her skin, clung stubbornly to her bikini, and dripped from her midnight hair. I had never had a desire to kiss another woman until that moment; previous experimentation seemed so distant, so empty. I wanted nothing more than to run my hands over her tanned skin, sweep up those glittering gems, and fashion a crown for my princess, my friend. I wanted to lick the droplets shining on her breasts, follow them into the shadows between. My body ached to rub against hers, to split the shimmering water between the two of us. All too soon her towel eclipsed the sun, dispersing the spell and dragging my attention back to reality: she was my friend, never would there be more. She called my name, asked if I were coming along; never have I been more grateful for a sunburn to hide my blush - I was soaking wet, and not just from the swim.
