   Chapter 3: Diving In

   I ended up working three loads out of my balls over the course of the
rest of the day and still found myself painfully rigid when I lay down to
sleep.  I knew I'd have to do it again if I wanted to have any chance of
getting to sleep and I definitely wanted to do that ASAP since I didn't
want to risk missing Karen tomorrow.

   After my fourth rather powerful orgasm of the day I drifted off to
sleep, images of my preteen princess swimming through my head.  I awoke the
following morning around nine o'clock to the feeling of stiffness in my
penis.  Not again, I thought as I quickly and methodically extracted yet
another load from my overworked balls.  With that out of the way I got out
of bed and went through my morning routine then I went downstairs and fixed
a quick breakfast.

   Noting that it was still before ten I had a seat at my computer to try
to get one more thing out of the way with the INTECH job.  I figured I'd be
all done with their work in another couple of days and I was really looking
forward to the ability to relax a bit.  It was also helpful to have
something with which to keep my mind occupied because every moment I didn't
thoughts of Karen surfaced, which invariably lead to my penis stirring.

   Glancing again at the clock I saw that it was already 11:40.  I didn't
want to be late so I saved my work, gathered my things and went down to the
garage.  I fired up my Corvette and backed it out.  I drove unhurriedly
over to the store and arrived right around ten of noon.  I went inside and
wandered the aisles.  Karen was not around yet, so I grabbed a drink and a
free newspaper from by the door.  I had a seat at the table provided for
customers and started to read the paper.  A few moments later I heard the
sound of a bottle being placed on the table and looked up over my paper.

   There stood Karen, a big smile curling her lips and her right hand
wrapped around a glass bottle of Coke.  Today she wore a cute little blue
and white tartan skirt and a light blue cami top.  The colors didn't quite
match, but they were close enough that they looked good together.  She also
had on little black dress shoes and a pair of white knee socks.  The small
bands of skin visible between her socks and the hem of her skirt enticed
me. Her honey colored hair was up in a pony tail yet again, this one not as
high on the back of her head as last time.  The scrunchie matched the
pattern of her skirt exactly.  I didn't know what the occasion was for her
dressing up like so, but I was thankful for it.

   I put down my paper and grabbed her bottle of soda, which she thanked me
for, then I headed to the register with it.  By the time I finished paying
Karen had already left the store.  When I got outside she was sitting in
the passenger seat of my car all ready to go.

   I lowered myself into the driver's seat and before I had my keys out
Karen had wrapped her slim arms around my neck and was giving me a hug. 
"Well, good afternoon to you, too," I chuckled as I returned the embrace,
feeling the warmth of her skin on my hands and on my chest through her
cami. A few moments later Karen broke off the hug and returned to her own
seat.

   "So, what's the plan for today?" Karen asked.

   "Diving practice," I answered succinctly.  "Do you have your bathing
suit?"

   "Yep," Karen answered.  "It's right here," she waved the little plastic
bag she carried.

   "Good," I said as I pulled the car out of the lot and started off to the
Y.  "Do you know how to dive at all?"

   "No, not really," came Karen's response.  I just can't get the hang of
going in head first.

   "There's nothing to it," I told her.  "I once taught a friend how to
when we were about your age, so I just know you'll pick it up.

   "I sure hope so," Karen replied.

   In just a few moments we were again back in the parking lot of the Y and
the two of us exited the car.  I grabbed a pair of towels from the trunk
and the two of us headed to the front door.  Karen laced the fingers of her
left hand between the fingers of my right as we walked.  Surely this was
something that could be mistaken for a scene of tenderness between a father
and his daughter, so I squeezed my hand lightly, letting her know I enjoyed
her contact.  We disengaged our hands and I opened the front door for her
then the two of us headed for the front desk.

   I checked in and gave Karen one of the two locks the receptionist gave
me.  The two of us walked to the locker room area and briefly parted ways.
I had worn my bathing suit as shorts so inside the locker room I only had
to remove my shoes and shirt, then I placed them along with my towel into a
free locker.  I locked up and went back out to await Karen's return.

   A few minutes later Karen emerged from the women's locker room wearing
just her bathing suit, this one purple except for a few thin stripes of
black at her chest.  She had removed her scrunchie, causing her long shiny
blonde hair to cascade halfway down her back.  I was still impressed by how
lovely her mane was and briefly wondered what she did to care for it.

   Karen once again placed her hand in mine and we headed for the aquatics
room.  I dropped our two keys with the attendant and we walked over to the
adult pool.  "How about we warm up with a few laps?" I asked and after she
nodded the two of us jumped into the pool.  It being right around lunch
time there weren't very many people in the pool, so Karen and I took up the
same two lanes we had the day before and started doing lengths.  After a
few unsure strokes Karen remembered her lessons perfectly and started
swimming much more proficiently.

   After a few laps Karen and I stopped at the shallow end of the pool and
I asked her if she was ready to learn how to dive.  "Sure am!" came her
excited response so the two of us exited the pool via the stairs.  I walked
towards the deep end of the pool, Karen following close behind and at a
spot marked eight feet deep I stopped.

   "Now the best way to start is to essentially fall into the pool.  Watch
me," I stood at the edge of the pool, bent at the waist, stretched my arms
down in front of myself and fell forward, my hands breaking the surface
followed by the rest of me.  I swam a little ways from the edge and called
to Karen, "Just like that, Honey."

   Karen approached the edge of the pool and bent herself nearly in half.
She then pointed her arms out and tried to fall into the water.  Her
instincts took over though and she hopped forward before dropping in,
causing her to enter the water at a strange angle.

   When she surfaced she looked displeased and I consoled her by telling
her this was very common (it was) and that we'd just try again.  She smiled
at that and the two of us swam to the nearby ladder.  Karen exited first,
once again giving me an exquisite view of her tight gymnast's ass.  Back at
the side of the pool again I had Karen take up the same position and I
knelt at her side.

   "Now just allow yourself to fall forward," I said as I rested one hand
on her lower back and held the other in front of her legs.  Karen again
began to rock forward, but with my arm in front of her leg she couldn't hop
forward and instead she plunged arms first into the water.  "Good job!" I
praised her after she surfaced.  She smiled and let out a slight laugh.  I
motioned her back to the ladder and in no time she was back in front of me.

   "OK, this time I want you to try it without my hand in the way.  Your
fear should be gone now, so I think you'll manage just fine."

   Karen again took her place at the edge of the water and pointed her
hands out in front of herself before plunging into the water.  Again I gave
her praise when she surfaced and she swam happily back to the ladder.

   "OK, pick up the pace now," I instructed her.  "The faster you go the
more natural the motion becomes.  Observe," I stood up and approached the
edge of the pool and rather than stopping and pointing my arms I simply
walked off the side of the pool into a dive.  "See, that's how it's done,"
I called from the water.

   Karen again came to the edge and she tried going quicker, but didn't
really get much more speed.  The two of us swam back to the ladder and
exited the pool, then I took up my position near the edge of the pool.

   "OK, Karen, try it again.  And as soon as you surface come right back
and do it again.  I'll tell you when to stop."

   For the next ten minutes Karen made circuits, dropping into the water
and rushing back out to do it again.  I stopped her when she approached the
edge once again.  "Very good," I congratulated her.  "Now what I want you
to do this time is try to jump out a bit as you dive.  You'll be entering
at a shallower angle, but I think you can do it.  Like this," I took a
couple of steps towards the edge of the pool and jumped, hitting the water
at an angle significantly less than 45 degrees.

   Karen then mimicked me, taking a couple of steps and jumping out with
her hands and arms extended.  Her dive wasn't as graceful as mine, but she
also had never tried it before, so I hardly thought I should fault her for
it.  Karen surfaced next to me and I again praised her effort.

   "Give that a few more tries and we'll go over to the diving board, OK,"
I told her, but said it more like a question.  She nodded and again used
the ladder to exit the pool.  I continued treading water as Karen did a few
more walking dives.  I continued giving her pointers after each dive. 
"That's good enough," I told her after I felt her form was acceptable.  We
swam for the ladder and exited.  This time Karen led the two of us as we
went over to the diving board.

   "This is a little higher up, so go ahead and try the falling in method
first," I suggested and Karen stepped right up onto the board to do as
instructed.  She stood at the edge of the board, her toes hanging off the
end, then she pointed her arms and dropped into the water.  "Excellent," I
said as she surfaced.  She swam over to the edge and lifted herself out of
the water.

   "Alright, I want you to try this next," I spoke as I stepped up onto the
board.  "Just bounce a bit on the board, then when you feel comfortable try
diving off," I started bouncing on the board and after about seven bounces
I angled myself into the water.  I turned around and looked towards Karen
as she did as I instructed.  She just kept bouncing for quite a while
before she worked up the nerve and bounced awkwardly out towards the water.
Her body was a jumble as she splashed down.  She came over to me as a
slight look of shame played across her face.

   "It's OK," I told her.  "This is one of the most difficult parts to get.
We'll try it a different way." The two of us swam back towards the edge of
the pool and pulled ourselves out.  Then at the board I told Karen to just
sort of run off the board into a dive.  She started at the rear of the
board and sped towards the opposite end, putting her hands out in front of
herself as she jumped.  It was a decent effort, but I knew she could
improve.  I suggested ways she could make her form better and after a few
more tries she was entering the water much more gracefully.

   As she returned from the water again I gave her some new instructions.
"OK, now what I want you to do is as you run towards the end of the board
hop up and land hard on the end of it.  Use your momentum to propel
yourself into the water." I showed her what I meant and after I surfaced
and swam back Karen did the same.  Her technique was quite good actually
and it was after only a few more practice dives that I had her try to
bounce on the end of the board into a dive.  This time she nailed it and I
cheered for her as she surfaced.

   I stood on the rear end of the board and as she came back around to
stand next to me I waved her to stop.  "Now this is what even more practice
will get you," I said as I took a few steps towards the end of the board,
jumped up and spun in mid air.  My feet landed on the end of the board as
my back faced the water and I threw myself into a back flip.  Karen cheered
as I surfaced and then dove into the water to join me.  Rather than
continuing to drill her on diving I swam around her a few times and
playfully splashed water at her face.

   Karen put on an expression of mock outrage and splashed me right back.
Back and forth we splashed as we swam around the pool.  When we reached an
area that was shallow enough I scooped Karen up into my arms and tossed her
towards the deep end.  She laughed as she flew through the air and after
she went under she swam back to me under the surface to poke at my belly
with her outstretched fingers.

   We continued to horse around till the two of us were huffing and
puffing. Then as we stood in the shallow end to catch our breaths Karen
told me she was hungry.  I told her that after such a good job learning how
to dive that she deserved a reward and I'd take her out to eat where ever
she wanted.  She asked me if Taco Bell was OK.  "If that's what you want,"
I said.  With that decided we left the pool, I grabbed our keys from the
counter person and led the way to the locker room.

   As usual I was changed before Karen and I waited outside the women's
locker room.  In due time Karen appeared, one again dressed in her tartan
skirt and light blue cami.  She was still barefoot though.  She held her
black shoes in one hand, the knee socks stuffed one in each shoe.  Her
other hand held the plastic bag with her bathing suit in it and her towel
was draped over that arm.  Her long hair was again up in a pony tail but
since her hair was still wet it hung heavily down her back.  The back of
her top was damp in spots from her hair's contact.

   I took the towel from over her arm and the two of us walked out of the
building.  I put the two towels into the trunk and once again we found
ourselves sitting in my car.  "This has been really fun, Shane, thanks,"
Karen said to me.

   "I've enjoyed it too, princess," I replied with a genuine smile.  "It's
nice to teach such a receptive student." Karen beamed as I said that and
reached over to give me another hug.  I met her embrace and we simply held
each other for a few moments.  "So, how 'bout that Bell?" I asked as I
finally broke our hug.

   "Oh boy!" was all Karen said as she gave a couple of claps.

   The Taco Bell was only a few blocks away so before we knew it we were in
the parking lot.  Karen pulled her knee socks out of her shoes and put the
shoes on over her bare feet.  I got out of the car as she finished donning
her shoes and I opened her door for her.  Karen thanked me and the two of
us entered the restaurant.

   Karen ordered a three taco supreme meal and I got myself a grilled
stuffed burrito meal.  The two of us took a booth as we waited for our food
and started chatting about the day.  Karen expressed her excitement at how
much better her water skills had improved over the past two days and I
commended her for both her effort and results.  She smiled and blushed
slightly as I piled on my adulation.

   We were interrupted by an employee calling our number so I stood to get
our food.  Karen walked over with me even though it was all on one tray.  I
guess she just didn't want to spend a moment apart from me, not that I
minded.  We sat and began to eat, conversing between bites.

   When we were about finished with our food I asked Karen what she'd like
to do next.  She got up on her knees, bent over the table towards me and
whispered into my ear.  "I wanna kiss you...  a lot." It was my turn to
blush a little and Karen looked deep into my eyes as she took her seat
again.

   "I uhhh...  I dunno if that's such a good idea-"

   "I know a place," Karen cut me off.  "You know the bike bath that runs
behind my house?"

   "Yeah."

   "There's a path off it that goes into the woods between the apartments,"
Karen continued.  "There's an abandoned tree fort up there.  No one uses it
anymore.  If you drop me off in the park again we can meet up there.  No
one will bug us."

   "You sure?" I asked, hardly believing I was even considering sneaking
into the woods with a ten year old girl to do god knows what.  Karen nodded
as I piled our wrappers onto the tray.  I got up and emptied the tray, then
I placed it on the stack that was on top of the trash can and the two of us
left.

   The drive to the park was mostly a blur as thoughts of what may come
raced through my mind.  Karen described the path as best she good, then
gave me her cell phone number just in case.  I let her off in the park,
after checking to make sure no one was watching and I drove back to my
house to retrieve my bike.

   My mind may have been unsure as to whether I should even do this, but if
the speed at which I pedaled was any indication my body had definitely made
its decision.  I soon found myself on the portion of the path that ran
behind Karen's apartment complex, so I started looking right as she
instructed.  Soon enough I saw a trail that ran off beyond the tree line so
I stopped and dismounted my bike.  I walked into the woods, pushing my bike
as I went and after a couple of hundred yards I saw the tree house Karen
spoke of.

   I don't know what I was expecting, but this was not it.  It was quite
large for a children's fort, spanning the space between the three trees
which supported it.  It had to be the size of an average living room and as
I walked up to it Karen waved at me from a small window.  I waved back,
then leaned my bicycle against the nearest support tree.  There were boards
nailed to one of the other trees to climb up, so I used them and was up in
short order.

   Before I had time to sort myself Karen was upon me, wrapping her slim
fingers around my neck as she pulled my head down towards hers.  I followed
her cue and the two of us shared our second kiss, our lips pressing gently
but firmly together.  I wrapped my arms around her, gripped her ass gently
and lifted her up towards me.  When our faces were even Karen wrapped her
youthfully narrow legs around my waist and I lightened my grip on her rear,
allowing her weight to settle onto my waist.

   Between kisses I was able to survey the tree fort better.  The
triangular room formed by the three support trees was spacious and against
the longest wall there was a table.  The other two walls had a small couch
and an easy chair against them.  I briefly wondered how they got up here.
Perhaps the parents who built it brought them up before enclosing the room,
which I was surprised had a ceiling that was plenty high for an adult such
as myself.  It was perhaps seven feet high.

   Bringing my mind back to the object of my affection, Karen and I
continued our lip wrestling as I walked towards the easy chair.  I turned
my back to the chair and lowered myself, all the while continuing to share
kisses with the child in my arms.  Karen pulled her legs out from around my
waist as I settled into the chair and folded them under herself as she took
a seat on my lower thighs, towards my knees.  She then simply lay against
me, resting her head against my upper chest just below my chin.

   For a while I simply held the girl, feeling the warmth of her young body
against mine.  I rubbed her back with my hands and she settled further
against me.  I wanted to break the silence, but wasn't sure how.  "Ohh
Karen," I murmured into her ear and I continued holding her against me.

   Prompted by my words she pulled herself away till her eyes found mine.
"Yeah?" she asked, thinking I had more to say.

   "I dunno," I said.  "I guess I'm just glad I met you.  My life was
pretty lonely till last week."

   She scooted up farther on my lap, gave me a light kiss then pulled away
slightly again.  "Me too," she said.  "Summer vacation has been better
since meeting you, that's for sure."

   Her body was getting perilously close to my penis, which had started to
waken since our make out session began.  I rested my hands on her lower
back as I continued to look into her bright blue eyes.  My hands slowly
lowered as I brought them around to rest on her hips, holding her, with
very little pressure, where she was.

   "What?" she asked suddenly as I continued looking into her blue orbs.

   "Sorry," I said with a light sigh.  "You have very beautiful eyes is
all."

   "Umm...  ohhhh," Karen replied, obviously not used to such compliments.
In order to lighten the mood I brought my face towards hers and rubbed my
nose against her own little button nose.  She giggled and joined in,
rubbing her nose against mine.  I started laying kisses all around her
face, kissing her cheeks, her chin, her forehead and even her eyelids.  She
let out pleased little sighs as I did so and pulled herself even closer to
my body.  Under her skirt her naked thigh landed on my stiffening member
and I froze briefly.  I was keenly aware of the fact that the only thing
between my dick and her soft creamy skin was my bathing suit.  Karen picked
up on my hesitance and looked at me quizzically.

   "Um....  nothing," I muttered, somewhat embarrassed and brought my hands
around to the top of her thighs as I tried pushing her leg off of my penis
without her noticing my intention.  Success!  I managed to slide her body
slightly to the side as she ran her hands over my chest playfully.  Safe in
my secret I started sliding my hands up her torso, feeling her soft body
yield to my touch.  I brought my hands down to her waist and slid my hand
under her cami, running my fingers along her silky skin as I did so.

   Karen made slight moaning sounds as I continued exploring her
midsection, even going so far as dipping my pinkie into her tiny navel. 
Karen giggled as I tickled her tummy button and once again started shifting
in my lap.  What have I done?  I asked myself as her soft tush landed
firmly on my hard cock.  Again I tried to covertly shift her body off of my
manhood, this time without success.

   "I feel it," she cooed evenly into my ear.

   "What's that, honey?" I asked hoping I didn't just hear what I thought I
heard.  I don't know why I was so concerned.  Was there really much
difference between a ten year old girl feeling and not feeling your cock
when you've already been making out with her for quite a while?  Either way
the rest of society would condemn my actions.

   "Your cock," she said matter-of-factly, rousing me from my inner
thoughts.  "I can feel it." She punctuated her words by grinding her soft
ass down onto my stiff member.

   "Ohh god," I groaned, then tried again to push her off my rigid cock. 
"I can't, Karen.  That's...  that's just...  wrong." She finally allowed me
to push her off of my penis.

   "I won't tell," Karen swore.

   "I'm sure you won't princess, but..." I let out a sigh and gathered my
thoughts.  "But that's a line I can't cross."

   I saw a look of sadness enter Karen's eyes and I instantly regretted
saying that.  I wrapped my arms around her shoulders and pulled her against
my chest again.

   "I like you Karen," I spoke softly into her ear.  "I like you a lot.  I
can't remember being as happy as I've been these past few days.  But we
just can't go there right now."

   Karen pulled away from my chest and again looked me square in the eyes,
her blue diamonds studying me.  "Right now..." She trailed off.  Then she
perked up.  "Maybe not right now, but later..." her voice rose as she
finished her thought.  She leaned in and kissed me again.  As she did so I
opened my mouth slightly and tapped her lips with my tongue.  She got the
idea quickly and opened her mouth.  I slipped my tongue between her lips
and Karen's own tongue started dancing with mine in her mouth.  I pulled my
tongue back into my mouth and Karen's followed mine inside.  I gently
sucked on her invader and I felt her body shake as she giggled into my
mouth.

   We broke our kiss and looked at each other.  "That was fun," Karen said
happily.  "I liked it."

   "Me too," I assured the girl.

   A thought seemed to cross Karen's mind and she reached into a small
pocket in her skirt I hadn't noticed.  She pulled her phone from it and
looked at it.

   "Darn it!" Karen said as she looked at the phone.  "I gotta go home. 
It'll be dinner soon and I don't want my mom wondering where I've been."

   "Certainly not," I agreed.  I lifted the young waif to her feet and
stood myself.

   "I'm glad you came," Karen said as she looked up at me.

   " Me too," I replied as I pulled her in for a hug.  I ran my hands down
her back till they again rested on her ass and I gave it a few playful
squeezes.  Karen pulled down on my neck and as I lowered my head she gave
me another kiss, slipping the tongue herself this time.  I let out a
pleased sound as she did as I massaged the cheeks of her ass till she broke
the kiss, then I let go and backed away slightly.

   "You really like my butt, don't you?" Karen asked with her signature
girlish giggle.

   "It's perfect," I admitted.

   "Glad you think so," Karen chimed as she spun around quickly, her skirt
flying out almost high enough to see the curve of her rear.  The tease! 
"Will I see you tomorrow, Shane?" she asked.

   "I'd love that, sweetheart," I told her.  "Would you like another
lesson?"

   "Hmm...  nah, I could use a break from learning.  I'm on vacation after
all," she laughed at that.  "Want to go for a bike ride?"

   "OK, when do you want to meet?"

   "Noon again?" she asked.  "We can meet at Briarwood and the bike path.

   "Sounds like a plan, honey," I smiled at her.

   "OK!" Karen agreed excitedly.  "I really do have to go now though," she
pushed up onto her tip toes and I met her for a final kiss, just a simple
peck.  "Bye!" Karen said and exited the tree house.  I went to the window
and looked out, watching my young friend walk the path till she was out of
view.

   I leaned against the side of the tree fort and sighed.  What have I
gotten myself into?  I wondered to myself.  Well, whatever it turns into
all I know for sure is that I was perfectly honest in telling Karen I was
happier now than I could remember.  "I'm really falling for this girl," I
said to myself as I left the tree house, grabbed my bicycle and headed
home.
