chapter 4

She stretched out in the chair next to the pool, soaking up the warm rays of the tropical sun. It had been so nice of Shanna's parents to invite her on this summer trip. Next year was her senior year at the University and she really needed the chance to relax. Not to mention that she would have to be crazy to pass up a mostly great trip to a 5 star resort like this one.

Growing up poor meant that Rose had missed out on a lot of things that other kids in her school considered a normal part of life. In fact, it had taken a scholarship just to get her into a higher education. So this was a rare luxury and she was determined to enjoy it.

Suddenly the darkness behind her closed eyelids got a shade darker as a shadow fell across her chair. She didn't even have to open her eyes. "Hey Shanna, you're in my sun." "Yeah well, someone has to drag you away from the pool. Why can't we go scout out the beach? All the surfers are there."

Rose opened her eyes then and looked up at the super skinny brunette. "Do you ever think about anything other than the opposite sex?" Shanna was willowy slender, slim hipped and small breasted. Compared to Rosie she was a stick.

"Do you ever?" Her friend retorted. "You know I do and you know very well I'm not going to find one on a surfboard anywhere. Or need I remind you? But maybe we can find you a chubby one." Reaching up she took the hand that was offered to her and climbed to her feet, careful not to actually put any weight on the diminutive girl. Rose wasn't huge by any means but she wasn't exactly skinny either. She was what Shanna called "blessed with more curves than a country road". Lot of good they did her though...they only seemed to attract boys that Rose had no patience for since they only wanted one thing. For some reason, being the one to "conquer" the college virgin was a title that a bunch of shallow minded jocks seemed to covet.

Not that Rose even seemed to notice. The trim, muscle bound, boneheads that always seemed to find her held no interest of hers. Maybe they just thought she was playing hard to get or maybe she was a lesbian that didn't want to come out of the closet. Truth was, Rosie liked her men big. Not muscle big, although solid built arms were pretty nice. For some inexplicable reason she liked them big of belly and thigh. The bigger the better.

A few boys that she had ever been interested in at school were large but none of them took her seriously. They just seemed to think she was playing some cruel joke on them so they reacted accordingly. But she had just shrugged it off and focused on school. She figured when she made it into college all the muscle bound idiots would disappear and she would have a larger pool of extra large, educated men to explore. Shows how much she knew...

"Rosieeee....." Said her friend, drawing out the name in a whine. "The beach now? Please? Before all these old people start to rub off on me and I end up with gray hair and wanting to play bingo?" Rose rolled her eyes but smiled at her partner in crime. "Ok, but don't you dare try to set me up with someone just because you think he's got a little chub. Last time you did that I couldn't get away from the guy for a week. I'm going to grab my bag so I can hunt for some interesting shells while you stalk your next sex slave."

Grabbing her towel and her room key she turned and headed off to the room with Shanna gleefully trailing after her.
