My dad set me up with a summer job as a camp counselor in Japan to save up for my college tuition. When I arrive at the camp, I find out that all the other counselors are beautiful young women: the statuesque Mika, funny Chie, wholesome Kayo, cute Mai, shy Kimiko and intense Michiyo. A couple of days into our first camp session, I innocently lead the boys into the large bath, only to find out it's co-ed! I was pretty shocked, but luckily, bathing nude with the six other counselors seemed to help break the ice as it were. At the end of last time, Mai had just invited me to come to a party in the lounge with her and the other counselors. That night, after we'd got our kids all back to their rooms on the second floor, and made sure no one was fighting or anything, I went back up to the third floor lounge. Kayo and Mika were there, but they'd both changed into different clothes. Mika had on a wine-colored tracksuit. Maybe I was wrong about her being a model. Perhaps she's more like an athlete, a volleyball player or something. Kayo had her hair tied back in a ponytail, and was wearing jeans and a t-shirt. Maybe it was my imagination, but as I looked at Kayo more closely, I began to wonder if she had a bra on. You could vaguely make out the outline of her nipples through her t-shirt. Still she gave me this big homey smile, and seemed completely at ease, so I guessed I must be wrong. Mika seemed lost in thought, and stared out the window till the others came. Chie and Michiyo came in next, Chie swatting Kayo on the shoulder, and making some joke I didn't quite catch. Chie had on these culottes that went down to her knees and a matching t-shirt with black sleeves that went halfway down her arm. She looked like a clown I thought, but her face was so sweet. Michiyo as usual was looking nervously off into space never quite in my direction. She had on jeans as well, but her outfit was the most daring of all of them. Her top had no back, just a crisscrossing network of strings. When she turned away, I noticed that the zipper for her jeans was at the back, and the belt hung fairly low around her hips. Hip huggers? Is that what they're called? The waist was so low in fact you could see the top of the crack of her bum. She had a round little ass, at least as sweet as Mika's. I found myself staring at the zipper wondering what it would be like to unzip it. I could almost picture her naked bum, and her squealing as I bent her over to have some fun. She turned around to face me, so I quickly looked away. I'd better be more careful. I don't want to get myself in hot water here. Eventually, Kimiko and Mai showed up too. They hadn't had time to change, but Mika told them we'd wait. Not wanting to keep us, Kimiko came back soon in the same skirt and blouse, and Mai eventually came running back down the hall in her yukata. When Mai tilted her body in a certain way, you could see her cleavage between the folds of her yukata, and I began to wonder if she wasn't wearing a bra either. Some of them got some tea from the dispenser, and Kimiko volunteered to go down to the vending machine in the dining hall and buy us all some drinks. There was no beer to be had, but anyway, I wanted to be as clear-headed as possible, so I could make the most of the situation. They talked for a while about what we should do, and then asked me to teach them an American game. At first, I couldn't think of any that would be easy to explain. Spin the bottle maybe, or even better strip poker. Then it hit me. Truth, dare, double dare, promise or repeat! It's a game we used to play when I was a kid. You take turns choosing one of the five options, and then the others in the group ask you a question, or get you to do something daring or whatever. It sounds innocuous enough, but leaves room to take things in an interesting direction. I did my best to explain the rules. I had a little trouble explaining 'dare' especially since when I tried to think up examples, the only ones I could come up with were along the lines of 'I dare you to show us your tits.' My horniness wasn't being helped by the fact that Michiyo kept getting up, and showing off her tight little ass. Mai as the last to arrive had to go first, and she chose 'truth.' I suggested the rather obvious 'do you have a boyfriend?,' and she fired back no, though she started to blush a bit. Why are these girls always blushing? I mean I can understand in the bath they were pretty embarrassed (heck so was I), but what kind of girl blushes when asked if she has a boyfriend? Is there some kind of rule against girls having boyfriends? Shy Kimiko was up next, and she chose 'dare' perhaps not fully realizing what this meant. Everyone waited for me to make a suggestion. I didn't want to suggest anything too outrageous, though I would very much have liked her to change into a short-sleeved shirt, or just take her top off completely for that matter. She'd looked pretty attractive blushing away in the bath before supper. In the end, I dared her to get up on the coffee table, and reach up, and touch the ceiling. Everyone agreed, and she nervously stepped up. Her balance was a bit unsteady, but she had very nice legs, though her skirt was a bit long for my liking. Michiyo chose double dare, and I really wanted to dare her to undo the zipper at the back of those tight hip huggers. With the vague idea of unzipping it myself, I suggested we turn out the lights, and she try to cross the room to the door while the rest of us tried to stop her. She was wise to my game however, and ended up going down the other side of the room from where I was. It was kind of funny though with them all falling all over each other and giggling like crazy. When the lights came back on, Michiyo was breathing heavily, and her hair was a bit tousled giving her a nice wild look. Chie rather predictably chose 'promise,' and someone (again probably Mika) suggested she promise to watch our kids for a few minutes the next day to give us a break. I didn't really think this was in the spirit of the game, but Chie was a good sport, and agreed anyway. Next, it was my turn, and not wanting to break with tradition (we'd been going through the options in order so far), I chose 'repeat.' They made me say some Japanese tongue twister. I had absolutely no idea what it meant, but they all seemed to get a kick out of watching me try to say it. Kayo was up next, and chose 'truth' again. Mai, seemingly unhappy because she'd been forced to reveal she had no boyfriend, burst out with the same question for Kayo. Kayo at first said it was a secret, but eventually owned up to not having one 'at the moment.' Maybe these girls weren't all virgins after all. Mika was last, and chose 'dare.' The others seemed afraid of Mika, but anyway, I dared her to arm-wrestle with me. Chie started joking about taking bets on the winner, and the others all gathered round. Mika's hand was so soft and warm I had to give up on my volleyball player idea. I really liked the determined look she had in her eyes as we wrestled, but she eventually started cheating using two arms against my one, but I still managed to get her down in the end. I didn't let go of her hand right away, but gently ran my fingers along hers. This turned out not to have been such a great idea, because she pulled it away suddenly, and then suggested we all call it a night. Kimiko agreed, but in the end, just the two of them left. I got the feeling that the others all wanted to stay up to see what would happen next. Someone got out some cards, and they taught me some Japanese card games. Before long, we were all getting pretty sleepy, but no one wanted to be the first to leave. Kayo finally gave up, and left, followed by Michiyo. I was sorry to see Michiyo go, but she was kind enough to stand there in the doorway for a moment giving me one last look at her beautiful bare back. The last two, Chie and Mai went off to their rooms to get changed for bed, but they both came back soon in their yukatas. We played a bit more, but Chie kept closing her eyes, and almost falling over, so Mai and I carried her back to her room. When we laid her down on her bed, her yukata fell open revealing her white cotton panties. I stole a brief glance, but Mai was right there, so I covered Chie up with her futon, and we left, and turned out the light. Mai seemed quite happy to be alone with me at last. She'd been the one who'd invited me to the party in the first place, so I was by now pretty sure she liked me. Once we got back to the lounge, she asked in English, "Do you have a girlfriend?" I was so happy to find that she spoke a bit of English. I answered truthfully no, and we got to talking about the different people we'd gone out with over the last few years. She'd been going out with the same guy for almost three years, but they broke up just recently as they were about to graduate. She wouldn't tell me why. I told her about the different girls I'd gone out with back in the States. None of my relationships had lasted very long. She seemed quite interested to hear about me, but soon she started drifting off to sleep. I tried to wake her, but in the end, I just lifted her up, and carried her back to her room. After setting her down on her bed, I looked down at her there sleeping so peacefully. At first I'd thought she looked like a cartoon character, but after talking with her, I began to think she seemed more mature than some of the other girls. I was pretty sleepy too, but I just couldn't stop looking at her. Her little chest rose, and fell as she breathed, and she had the most precious look on her face. I pushed her over into the center of the bed, and sat down on the edge. God, she's gorgeous, more feminine than any of my old girlfriends. I straightened her yukata, but began to think naughty thoughts. Just one little peek won't hurt. I gently tugged at her belt, her yukata fell open, and wouldn't you know it - the playful little devil wasn't wearing any underwear underneath. For a moment, I looked at her gorgeous round breasts and fluffy black bush, but started to feel guilty about taking advantage of her trust, and quickly pulled her yukata back shut. There'll be time enough for those things later. The next morning, the building was bustling with noisy kids again. One of mine had fallen, and cut himself, so I had to fetch him some band-aids. Seeing the first aid kit in the office reminded me; hell, I didn't bring any condoms. There weren't any for sale in the tuck shop in the camp, and we were miles from town. How am I ever going to get any? At breakfast, Mai was pretty busy looking after her own kids, so I didn't get a chance to talk to her. I could still remember the smoothness of her skin and how alluring her naked body had looked when I took a peek the night before. Chie came up to me, and said 'Ohayo (=good morning)' cheerfully. Mika seemed still angry at me for touching her hand. What a life! I brooded all day on how I was going to get my condoms. I'd have to wait for Saturday when this group of kids would leave, and we'd finally get some time to ourselves. Anyway, there was no need to rush. At bath time again, the six of them were all standing in a circle chatting, towels wrapped around them. I didn't feel comfortable going over, but this time it was Mai who came to get me. She stood beside me beaming as if the two of us were already an item. I felt decidedly uncomfortable, especially with Mika staring daggers at me. That night, there was no one in the lounge, but when Mai went off for her bath, she knocked on my door, and invited me to come along. I was a bit taken aback by her forwardness, and worried what the others might think, but fortunately, when we got there, there was no one else there. We sat down on the edge of the pool with our feet dangling in the water while she told me about her life in her hometown. She was from Tohoku, a rural area in the northeast of Japan, but didn't like it she said. She wanted to go to Tokyo or maybe overseas to study. This revelation jolted me a bit, because it sounded like she wanted to get serious all of a sudden. I felt a bit like I was getting trapped in the web she was weaving. I didn't say anything, and I guess she knew she'd gone a bit far because she stopped talking. We just sat there for a while, and then I headed back to my room without saying anything. I don't know why I acted that way. One of my old girlfriends used to accuse me of being 'afraid of commitment.' I don't think that's true exactly, but I do enjoy my freedom as much as any guy. The next few days, Mai and I just kind of cooled out a bit. It felt like everyone had noticed, but they didn't say anything to me at least. Chie saw that I looked a bit down, and came over at supper to try to cheer me up. She's a nice girl really, so I managed to give her a smile, though I wasn't really in the mood for talking. Thursday in the afternoon, we were scheduled to take the kids in swimming. The river flows rather quickly, so the camp staff asked us to use the swimming pool across from the main building instead. Two groups went in at a time, and Kayo and I got paired up. The kids were all pretty charged up. We all got changed, and when I went out on the deck, Kayo was already in the pool. My kids and I all looked on, stunned, as Kayo swam length after length with strong powerful strokes. Seemingly embarrassed by all the attention, she climbed up the ladder at the far end of the pool. She had on this navy blue one-piece swimsuit which glistened when wet. She had the most amazing ass, soft and curvaceous. Once she was up on the deck, she pulled down on the suit to try to cover her bum, but it would just ride up again as soon as she started walking. She had let down her ponytail, and her long rich hair hung around her face like a lion's mane. She smiled at me when she realized I was watching her. She went, and climbed up onto the lifeguard's chair, and stayed there till we were done. When it was time to go, she slipped back into the pool to do a few more lengths. At supper, I didn't see Kayo around, although I very much wanted to. After everyone finished eating, we went down the hill to a campfire across the field. They didn't have any marshmallows or hot dogs or anything, but one of the older staff members had brought a guitar, and so they sang some camp songs to Japanese words. Mai and the other counselors didn't seem keen on talking to me in front of the staff and kids, so I just kind of sat off at the edge, and watched. Eventually, Kayo showed up. Her hair was still wet, and she still had on her swimsuit under this white terry cloth hoodie. She sat down on a log on the other side of the fire from me. She warmed herself by the fire, and listened to the people talking around her, but the way she was sitting... She had her knees up and her slender ankles spread apart in a way that gave me an excellent view of her pussy, just barely covered by the material of her soaking wet swimsuit. She kept giggling, and squirming around in a way that drove the swimsuit deeper up into the crack of her bum. I got the feeling that she was getting turned on too, by showing off in this way. I originally thought that Kayo was the most wholesome one in the group, but I was having to change my ideas on this one too. Now I understood what she meant about not having a boyfriend "at the moment." Eventually, it started getting late, so we put out the fire, and headed up the hill. I deliberately waited, so that I would be just behind Kayo on the steep stairs. Her swimsuit had worked its way so far up at the back, all you could see were her sweet ass cheeks peeking out from under the jacket. I wish I had had a camera; it really was an exquisite sight to behold. She was so wrapped up in her conversation with Mika just ahead that she never bothered to straighten her suit out. I followed her all the way up the stone steps and then up to the second floor. When she went into her room, I thought she might turn this way to say goodnight, but she didn't. She's a shy one. That night I dreamed of her. Friday night was the last night for these kids, so some of us decided to take a group of them for a sleep-out in the woods. Michiyo, Mai and Kimiko stayed up in the main building with their kids, but the rest of us all got our sleeping bags, and made our way down across the field and through this path in the woods to where there were clearings for us to lay them down. Mika, Chie and their kids got set up on the space near this very small shrine. Kayo and I had to hike out a bit further, but we finally found a little field where we could all lie down. I'd brought my pajamas with me, but suddenly realized there was nowhere to change. The kids got into their sleeping bags, and changed there, but Kayo just kept her clothes on waiting for the kids to go to sleep. There were all excited to be together and sad that they would have to leave the next day, so they kept talking and talking. I took off my shoes, and got into my sleeping bag, and before I knew it, I'd fallen asleep. I woke up again around one o'clock. Some of the kids were still up, and Kayo was still in her clothes sitting up watching them. I got up, and told her I was going to check on Mika and Chie's group. As I got close to them, I could tell they were all asleep, so I headed right back. Back at our camp, the last few kids had drifted off, and Kayo had disappeared. Her backpack wasn't there either, so I figured she must have gone off somewhere to get changed. I began to imagine her naked all alone in the woods, and thought to myself 'hmm, she's going to need some protection,' so I set out to find her. She hadn't gone far, it turned out. I guess she expected me to be chatting with Mika and Chie, so she was just a little ways out, off the main path in the woods. I didn't want to alarm her, so I crouched down, and watched from behind a bush. The moon was out, but she was standing mostly in shadow. I narrowed my eyes trying to get used to the darkness. It looked like she'd already got her pajama top on, and was trying to undo the belt on her jeans. Being careful not to make any noise, I circled around behind her. She looked so tense, jumping at every little noise. I carefully inched in closer, till I was almost directly behind her. I could hear the river rapids off to the left. She kept nervously peering off into the woods back towards where the kids were. She finally got her nerve up, unbuckled her belt and pulled her jeans down. I began to feel guilty about peeping on her like this. Of course, I'd pulled Mai's yukata open the other night, but I figure she'd half intended me to. Kayo's little show yesterday may have been intentional, but this was not. Or was it? She pried off her shoes, and then pulled the jeans right off. I wondered if she was going to put her pj bottoms on over her underwear, but she leaned forward, and pulled her panties straight down revealing her lovely round rump. As she pulled her panties off completely, I let out a gasp. She straightened up, and tensed. Realizing I'd been found, I quickly stood up, and called out her name. "Kayo, doko ni iru no (Kayo, where are you?)" pretending I had been looking for her. She grabbed up her pj bottoms, and turned this way holding them in front of her to cover her bare pussy and legs. She looked so out of place standing there in just her shoes and pj top I didn't mind so much being found out. The look of embarrassment on her face was priceless. "A, koko ni ita n da. Modotte kitara inai kara sa (Oh, here you are. When I came back, you were gone so...)." "Chikayoranai de. (Don't come any closer)" "Doushita no? (What's wrong?)" "Kigaette iru kara (I'm changing)." I looked down at her bare legs pretending to notice for the first time. She looked so sexy quivering there in the cool night air. "A, gomen gomen. Ki ga tsukanakatta. (Oh sorry, I didn't realize)." We stood there in silence as she stared at the ground blushing. Why wasn't she saying anything? Finally she spoke, "Sugu owaru kara atchi muite (I'll be done in a minute, so could you turn the other way?)." I nodded, and did as she asked. In my mind's eye, I could picture her sliding her shoes off, and putting her bare legs into the pajama bottoms. I could even sort of hear her pj bottoms brushing against her skin as she lifted them up. "Gomen ne, Ken-chan. Sonna ni hayaku modotte kuru to omowanakatta (Sorry about that, Ken. I didn't think you'd be back so soon)." I smiled wanly, now feeling acutely guilty for having spied on her. She was such a sweet girl, more innocent and trusting than I had assumed. Perhaps she hadn't been teasing me at all the day before. I began to feel a slight pang of regret. Once she was dressed, we walked back to where our kids were, and she slipped into her sleeping bag. I wished her a good night, and went off to change myself. As I took my clothes off, I could sort of imagine what it must have felt like for her. This whole camping business had possibilities I hadn't even thought of. Out in the wild, the two of us under the stars, quite romantic really. For the second night in a row, Kayo filled my dreams.
