A Shepherd Afield Pt. 02

"Yeah, that sounds fine." Ben said and flagged down the Assistant Manager to let him know. He looked relieved and thanked them both.

Loaded nachos were ordered for the tables and beer to start. Cheers went up from Leo's group. They were still excited to be hanging out with the celebrities and conversation was very animated. The rappers were enjoying the attention. The buzz of conversation was peppered with laughter and some poor attempts to rap from the surfers followed by more laughter.

It took almost three hours to get all the way to dessert and once lunch was over there was a definite reluctance to see it end. Eventually, after a bunch of hugs, the young surfers went back to the bay and the rest made their way back to the resort.

"Ben, we only have one more day in this paradise!" Trish pouted.

"It's been fun but I'm ready to go home," he replied.

"It's getting cold there!" she whined and Ben grinned. Then something occurred to him. Rain would be coming to live with them and he'd completely forgotten to make the arrangements. He looked over at the woman.

"I'm so sorry Rain, I should have begun the preparations for your arrival. You live in California now right? Do you even have winter clothes?" he asked.

She looked up at him and timidly shook her head. "I've been wanting to ask how we were going to do this but I didn't want to push."

"Please feel free to push! I assume you will need to go home first to pack and deal with your lease for your current living arrangements," he said.

"I'm just renting a room from a friend at the moment. No lease to break. I only have another suitcase of clothes and a few boxes of books and files. I don't have much," she explained.

"When we get back to the room I'll book your flight and make arrangements for delivering your boxes. We'll pick you up at the airport." Ben said. "As for clothes, I believe I can enlist the aid of the McKellan twins to take you shopping."

Trish grinned at Rain's wide eyed look. "You're gonna like the twins! They are a lot of fun! Aren't they Ben?"

He blushed and looked the other way and Rain shared a smile with Trish.

As they walked back across the grounds of the resort they spotted Rochelle and Thomas on lounge chairs by the pool in deep conversation.

"Rochelle! You missed a lot of fun! Surfing is a blast!" Trish gushed.

Her friend looked up with a wide smile. "You've been surfing all this time?"

"Well, we weren't just surfing," she said with a wicked smile and Ben threw her a look.

"Yes, we had lunch at a nice beach side restaurant. It was a lot of fun." Ben finished.

Rochelle grinned at her friend and Thomas took in Ben's embarrassment and made an intuitive leap. "Oh!" he gasped and Rochelle patted his hand.

"I'm going to go clean up and start making arrangements for Rain to join us at home." Ben said to make his escape.

"See you at dinner? There's a barbeque dinner at the beach restaurant tonight. 8pm?" Thomas asked.

"Sounds great!" Ben said and waved as he walked away with Trish and Rain.

They made their way to the room and Trish and Rain followed Ben into the shower. Ben insisted they behave as he really wanted to get started on Rain's travel arrangements. The ladies did their best but they looked a little flushed as they all stepped out to dry off.

"Hang in there. If we get carried away now we won't get the bookings done. Work now. Play later," he said and received two pouts.

Ben slipped on his boxers and with mischievous grins Trish and Rain remained naked. They sat on either side of Ben on the couch as he powered up his laptop. Ben noticed their natural state but did his best to put it out of his mind. He pulled up the travel site and Rain let him know how soon she thought she'd be ready to catch a flight to join them. He plugged in the dates and they selected a flight and picked her seat. Ben paid for the flight with an extra baggage fee and had the e-ticket sent to Rain's email. She'd just need to show the barcode at the airport and she was set.

"Now we should arrange the courier to ship your boxes," Ben said as his concentration began to fragment with Trish's large soft tit gently pressing against his right arm and Rain's smaller one touching his left arm.

"How- how many boxes did you say?" Ben asked, licking his lips.

"Maybe three?" Rain replied.

"Books and p-papers?" Ben stumbled as he felt Trish's stiff nipple brush his arm.

"Yes."

"So... fairly heavy then." Ben reviewed the options on the courier's website and selected an option which should cover the shipment, entered the delivery address and made the payment, once more directing the receipt to Rain's email. Chills were running up and down his spine as Trish stroked his arm with her nipple. He could hear her gentle moaning and his cock was rising quickly. He looked over at Rain and saw her watching his mouth. "You're set. Just get the boxes to the depot, show them the shipping receipt and they will do the rest. I- I should- I should probably transfer the money I promised you to your account."

"Later." Rain said and crawled up onto the couch and pushed him back against the cushions to kiss him. When their lips met her tongue slid deeply and aggressively into his mouth and he moaned.

Trish reached through the opening in his boxers and pulled his stiff cock out. "That's what I was looking for!" she chuckled with glee. She ran the flat of her tongue up the side and felt it surge and twitch in her hand. Fuck, that was so hot! She continued to stroke him with her tongue, feeling it become harder and his legs began to tremble. She kissed the tip making his whole body jolt then she sucked as much into her mouth as she could.

Ben moaned into Rain's mouth and she pulled back to see what caused this. She saw Trish bobbing her head up and down over his cock and Ben gasped with each stroke. Rain kissed her way down Ben's chest and was in the perfect position to take over for Trish when she came up for air.

Trish couldn't get over how hard Ben's cock was! She pulled back slowly as her jaw felt like it was becoming unhinged. She saw Rain moving in for a turn with the beast and wondered if she would have an easier time with it. She leaned back and Rain smiled at her as she eyed Ben's cock. Trish watched her work the tip to get Ben worked up then she surged forward to take it into her throat. Rain came to a sudden stop and choked. She pulled back with a look of astonishment.

"I- I can't get it into my throat!" Rain gasped as Trish grinned at her.

"I know! He's so fucking hard!" Trish gushed.

The two women looked at Ben hungrily and he started to feel nervous. "You remember what happened last time we got a little too enthusiastic? You two were out of commission for the night! I don't want to hurt you two again!"

"Then get on the bed and don't move a muscle. We will do all the moving!" Rain suggested.

"FUCK YES! I like how you think!" Trish cheered and gave Rain a high five.

They pulled Ben to his feet and guided him to the bed. They made him lie back on the mattress with his feet hanging off the end just a little.

"He's a little too excited for me to ride him in that state so you go first." Rain said, gesturing for Trish to make herself comfortable on his cock. The redhead smiled and moved up Ben's legs to drag her wet pussy up and down his cock as it was trapped between them.

Rain scrambled up the bed on her knees and straddled Ben's chest using her legs to keep his arms pinned to the bed. "No using your arms and hands Ben. Only your mouth and your cock!" she said with a grin and he smiled at her. She lifted her pussy up to his mouth and sighed when he began to caress her with his lips and tongue. "Oh god Ben... that feels so goooood!"

Trish was almost reaching her limit just rubbing across Ben's rigid flesh. She reached down between her legs and positioned the head of his cock against her wet opening. She dropped her body down slowly and shuddered as the heat from him almost scalded her insides. He was sliding in so deep and he was so fucking hard and hot! She stopped her descent and lifted herself. She was unable to stop herself from whimpering at the feeling of him leaving her body. She wanted him inside, deep! She let her legs relax and drove Ben's cock right to her deepest spots. This was what she wanted! Forever!

"FFFUUUUCCCCKKKK!!! YES!" Trish cried out as she threw back her head in bliss. There was still a little residual ache from the last time Ben had taken her hard but now she was sailing through waves of euphoria. Her mind was on the edge of leaving her body.

No man had ever fulfilled her like Ben. Her marriage had been exciting and the sex had been great and frequent but John... always held something back. She couldn't say that she was aware of it at the time but when she compared John to Ben it finally came to light. There'd always been an emotional reserve. She realized that she'd picked up the same habit. It had prevented her from allowing herself to love Ben.

John never lost control of his passion or driven her beyond her ability to absorb the pleasure. On the few occasions when he'd been a little too rough and hurt her he never apologized. Instead he'd laughed it off and teased her for not being able to handle his manliness. Now that she was with Ben she saw John's insecurities had kept him from being a truly giving lover. Ben didn't feel his masculinity was threatened by something as simple as an apology when his enthusiasm caused her a little pain.

She wasn't in pain now though. Holy FUCK was this GOOD!

She knew she should start moving but just having him fill her so completely, the heat of him penetrating deep into her body, was too good to interrupt. Tingles raced outwards from her pussy and she licked her lips and bit them to ease the pins and needles sensations tickling them.

Rain's giggles brought Trish to the present. "Uhmmm, what?" Trish blinked her eyes open and looked at Rain curiously. "Why are you laughing?" She bit her lips again as Ben's cock pulsed within her.

"You're humming!" Rain giggled.

"Was I?" she blinked again.

Rain nodded with a grin then her brows drew together, her mouth dropped open and her eyes tightly closed as Ben's clever tongue found its mark.

"Fuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuck!OhBen!OhBen!OhBen!Yes!Yes!Yes!" Rain rattled off like a machine gun as spikes of raw pleasure followed Ben's rapidly stroking, flicking, and probing tongue.

Ben's hips began to rock and gently bounce Trish up and down. He was no longer able to wait for her to move. The jolts threatened to take Trish's muscle control from her entirely and she began to tip forward. Ben quickly freed his hands and reached up to catch her. Instead he got two handfuls of tit.

"God yes!" Trish moaned as he roughly squeezed her large tits in his strong hands. She loved that!

He bounced Trish against his lap and the sound of wet flesh slapping together filled the room to accompany the moans of the three on the bed.

"BEN! I- I- can't hold- I can't- I'm- I'm gonna- I'm gonna cum! OH GOD BEN I'M CUMMING!!!!!!" Rain screamed as she pulled his face against her gushing pussy and rocked her ass faster and faster.

He was hammering up into Trish now, lost to the sensation of her pussy muscles rippling uncontrollably as her entire body tore through an intense release. She squeezed his hands against her tits and tightened his fingers around her nipples, pinching them almost painfully tight as she wailed. She felt his body tightening up.

"CUM BEN! CUM IN ME! FILL ME UP! FFFFFUUUUUCCKKKK!!!" Trish cried out as her own orgasm washed over her senses.

Ben growled as his orgasm struck and Rain felt the deep vibrations right through her overly sensitive flesh pressed against his face. She threw her head back and gasped silently to the ceiling.

Trish pressed herself against Ben's hands and tightly clamped her eyes as fireworks went off in her body. She loved the feeling of his heat shooting deep into her body.

Rain pulled back from Ben's face as she was becoming too sensitive. She gasped and trembled as the final surges of her orgasm pulsed through her body. She was caught between Ben's arms which were busy folding Trish upright by her boobs.

"Oh FUCK Ben that was good!" Trish finally managed when she got her breath back.

"Can you move so I can lie down?" Rain gasped. "I'm trapped here between Ben's arms."

"Not the worst place to be." Trish quipped but slowly leaned back so Ben could release her tits from his hands and let Rain move. They arranged themselves on the bed and stared up at the ceiling as their heart rates returned to normal.

"Is everyone OK?" Ben asked carefully.

The ladies chuckled. "Yes Ben," they replied in unison and the three grinned at each other.

Ben got up and walked into the bathroom to quickly rinse off. As he exited Trish and Rain stepped in to take their turn. He returned to his laptop and got it going once more. He connected to his bank account and waited for Rain to return. When she did he arranged the bank transfer for the fifteen thousand. He let her log into her bank and make a payment to her school loan then he shut down the laptop.

Trish sank down on the couch next to him on his other side and leaned against his arm. "I'm being totally spoiled on this vacation. I've never had this much fun before. I don't want to go home."

"Aww Trish. Vacations are fun and we should enjoy them but they don't last forever. That doesn't mean life at home is completely the opposite. We have fun there too!" Ben argued gently.

She nodded then grinned mischievously. "You said you'd try out my new hot tub with me."

"And I will," he returned as he saw her sexy expression. "You're insatiable!"

Trish grinned at him and he gave her a quick kiss on the lips.

"Now if you don't mind I'm going to take a nap out on the balcony before dinner," Ben said and pushed himself to his feet. Trish and Rain looked at each other and both broke into broad yawns which dissolved into giggles. They got up to drop onto the bed to catch some sleep as well.

They made it to dinner just a little late as they'd forgotten to set an alarm.

The gang was in good spirits and the barbeque was delicious. They discussed plans for the following day and Rochelle reminded them of their final spa treatments.

Once dinner was over they went to the bar where the DJ was spinning hits from the disco era and everyone had a blast trying to outdo each other with classic disco moves on the dance floor. The DJ finally took pity on them and switched to more current music late into the evening.

The goal for the following day was the pool then the spa finishing off with dinner at the Silver Moon restaurant for a final dinner together.

With hugs, handshakes and fist bumps everyone called it a night sometime after midnight.

Once they got back to the room Ben managed to convince Trish that sleep was more desirable than sex so the three friends crawled into bed and quickly slipped into slumber.

Chapter 16

The back of Ben's neck was on fire. At least it felt that way. Their day at the pool the day before had been very relaxing but he'd obviously missed applying lotion to that area. He'd first discovered that during his massage at the spa in the afternoon. By dinner hour he felt the heat pouring off his neck like a bonfire and his shirt collar only aggravated it. Trish had applied aloe gel to the area but he was still hurting this morning as they waited to board their flight.

She'd bought him a brightly colored tank top with tropical flowers all over it which didn't touch his tender neck but of course even the oversize top was too small for him. It stretched over his chest badly. He thought it looked ridiculous but it didn't hurt his sunburn so it stayed.

Rain was sitting in the seat next to him in the lounge resting her head against his arm. Her army duffle was under her feet as it was small enough to be carry on. Her flight was leaving thirty minutes before theirs so she was getting in some cuddle time before she had to board... which would be any moment according to the page. She was flying back to LA with the rest of the gang but would see Ben again in a few days.

Ben stood and gave Rain a hug. Trish gave her a hug too and she headed off to the gate. Ben saw Rochelle giving Thomas a kiss by the gate and smiled at her genuine happiness. She told him at dinner the night before that she would be travelling to California in a week to begin the search for the optimum place to build a new restaurant. Ben's impression was that the move would be permanent for her. He really hoped it worked out for her this time.

Ben had given hugs to La'Shia, Brooklyn, Tilisha and a few of the other ladies and shook the hands of Killah and the rest of his group when they'd arrived at the airport so he just waved to them as they walked to the gate. He sat back down and Trish sat next to him and bumped his arm with her shoulder. He smiled at her. He was feeling a lot more comfortable with himself on his trip home than he'd been on his arrival. He had Rain to thank for that.

Rochelle sat down next to him and leaned against his arm. "Ben, I can't thank you enough for bringing me down here with you. I know you said you had no expectations but what happened was completely unexpected for all of us."

"I'm so glad you and Thomas are happy together. You are happy, right?" Ben asked in concern and Rochelle snorted in surprise. She stared at Ben and saw he was teasing her. "Very cute," she growled playfully.

"Truthfully, I really am happy for you Rochelle. Didn't I say you deserved someone better?" Ben insisted.

She nodded and smiled at him.

It wasn't long before their flight was called and they made their way onto the plane. They had the bulkhead seats again for more leg room and were getting settled in when Ben saw a young female flight attendant come by to check on them. Sandy blond hair pulled back in a tight bun, big blue eyes under fair brows, button nose and an oversized smile that was all white teeth. Her face froze a little when she spotted Ben between Rochelle and Trish. He read her name tag as he was fuzzy on it from the last time he saw her.

"Hello again Tracy. Could I bother you for a pillow and blanket, please?"

Her smile came back at full force. "You certainly can Mr. Shepherd!"

"Ben, please."

He didn't think her smile could get any brighter but he was wrong. She hurried away and brought him the pillow and blanket right away.

"Thank you very much!"

"Your vacation was good I see! You seem very relaxed!" Tracy ventured, pitching her voice for just them.

Ben glanced at Rochelle who was absolutely glowing and at Trish who was wearing an identical expression of happiness. He smiled at the flight attendant. "Yes, it was a very good vacation but I'm looking forward to going home."

"It won't be long now! I'll be back shortly." Tracy said as she moved along to do her rounds.

A man walked by with a child in his arms. Right behind him was a woman who was playing peekaboo with the child. She glanced over and froze when she spotted Ben.

"Oh my god! It's you! You're him! In the magazine! Harry! It's him!"

Ben sighed. When Trish made to move to block the woman Ben reached across to make her sit back.

"Magazine?" Ben asked and glanced at the man. He was looking at Ben with undisguised animosity. He moved further back to distance himself from Ben. His wife watched him go with her mouth opening and closing in surprise.

Ben looked to her in and she suddenly remembered she was carrying her tablet. She flipped it around and launched the app to show him the digital magazine's cover. It was one of those trashy gossip rags and right there on the front cover was a shot of Ben relaxing back against the front of the catamaran, wind blowing in his hair, chest scars exposed for the world to see.
