This is more like a personal fantasy assigned with words, and might be a little too long and slow for some people's taste. It is a work of fiction. All characters are 18 years of age or above. Feedbacks are welcomed. Enjoy. ***** Deep in one of the remotest parts of the Brazilian Amazon rainforests, a boy looks up longingly at an airplane. A backpack slung on his shoulders, he's surrounded by thick vegetation on all sides, mostly wild species of various trees and plants he knows nothing about. The high humidity causing his clothes to stick to his body with perspiration. "Hey, c'mon! We need to reach the camp before it gets dark", a girl's voice called out from somewhere behind him. 'Goodbye, civilization..' he thinks, looks down, turns around and resumes the long walk following behind his friend. - 12 hours earlier I woke up with a start, surprised at how I had fallen asleep in the first place. It was a total of 34 hours of travel from IGI airport, New Delhi to Eduardo Gomes airport, Manaus via a connecting flight at Frankfurt and I had spent majority of it sleeping, and yet here I was, tired and dozing off in the waiting area outside terminal #1, which was apparently empty at this hour of early morning, except for me and a Chinese family who were sitting on the far left side of the hall. The young Chinese girl turned towards me and upon noticing me looking, smiled and gave a wave. Blushing, I looked down and that's when I felt someone tap on my right shoulder. Instinctively I turned and saw... no one. Perplexed I said, "Man I'm so fucking tired, and for what!?" Shaking my head I turned to look at the cute Chinese girl again. "For me!" suddenly a head appeared in my line of sight from behind me and really close to my face. I jumped back from my seat and stood, tripping over my luggage and barely managing to stay balanced. I saw the Chinese family looking towards me with curious faces, the cute girl was trying and failing to stifle back her laughter. Embarrassed, I looked towards the new person who herself was doubled up laughing. It was my best friend Palak, on whose request I was right now standing at an airport halfway around the world away from the comforts of home. "What the hell was that for!!?" I asked. Controlling her laughter she took a deep breath, climbed over the front row of seats, walked towards me, threw her arms around my neck and hugged me tight. "Oh I've missed you too, buddy. You looked like you could use some waking up" Slowly I put my arms around her and hugged her back. I'm 5' 6" and she was practically the same height as me, I sniffed in her hair which was open and smelled nicely of some conditioner I was glad I didn't recognize. As I held her I also realized her form had broadened considerably since I last saw her a year ago. She broke contact and held me by shoulders at arm's length. She looked me up and down and said "Dude, will you ever stop being skinny?" I shook my head and said "55 KGs is not that skinny and I'm not even the slightest health-conscious, you know that. Speaking of which, will you ever stop growing? How much weight have you put on this past year?" She put her hands on her waist and said pridefully "Way ahead of you buddy, I'm almost 70 KGs now" She was wearing royal-blue colored sneakers and denim shorts with an egg-yolk colored tank top, both of which seemed a size too tight and left nothing to the imagination. My eyes roamed over her figure from bottom to top, her bare legs increased in width constantly up to her wide thighs with a sudden but curvy exponential increase at her much wider hips, followed surprisingly by a relatively straight belly. As my eyes travelled further up to her broad rack, her chest heaved with a sigh and she crossed her arms with a sly smile and said "30GG, in case you're wondering" I looked up at her face with glazed eyes and said "um, what?" "40-28-38, those are my measurements, or were a few months ago, I've grown a bit since. Add it to your perverted database", she said slightly shaking her head. Her straight dark hair fell up to her breasts, her top didn't reveal any amount of cleavage though. On top of all that, she wore geek glasses which I was sure were just for show. I crossed my hands and said "You bet I will. But I'm confused as to which category should I file this information in. An aspiring glamour model or the web-journalist I used to know?" She rolled her eyes and said "very funny" "But seriously, you look completely different than I remember! What brought on this transition?" I asked. She raised her palms defensively and said "Can't help it man, I just try to keep fit while my weight keeps increasing, especially my busts" "Yeah, I can see that" I said, nodding and widening my eyes for effect. "Now, I just traveled to other side of the planet simply because you asked me to, care to tell me why am I here?" I asked. She suddenly got into a hurried mode, took my trolley bag and started rolling it towards exit and continued, "I'll tell you everything on the way, I promise. But right now we need to hurry!" I got my backpack and ran to walk at her side. "Lucy Vixen", I said after a while, looking at my phone. Palak turned to look at my phone and said "who's that?" I continued reading a profile from Boobpedia, "Lucy Collet or Lucy Vixen as she's more popularly known, is a glamour model herself. I follow her on Instagram and Twitter and your cup size reminded me of one of her posts about her bra-size measuring to be 32GGs, so I looked her up. You two have the exact same measurements, your weights are in a similar range, same skin tone. She's a redhead though, and doesn't wears fake glasses. Here, look at her pictures, she mostly does lingerie and topless shoots" I told her giving her my phone. "Huh" she said while scrolling and tapping, "Interesting...". We had come to halt right before escalators. After a while she said "She's hot, dude! One might argue that below the neck we are strikingly similar but I don't know for sure" she looked at me and handed me back my phone "I always get the top view, I'll let you be the judge" she smiled and winked at me. I raised my eyebrows as I took in her tease while she went on to descend through the escalators. I followed behind her. I observed her frame from behind. In spite of her weight revelation, she was not too chubby but enough to be called desirably luscious. I caught myself staring at the curves of her buttocks and her long exposed legs and my mouth went dry. 'Man, when did she became a babe!?' I wondered. I had never seen her focusing at all on her looks. And not just physically, she seemed a lot more confident now. Much seemed to have changed about her since the last year. I noticed a couple of guys ogling at her while ascending from the opposite escalator. I gave them a stern hard-eyed stare, but they didn't even noticed me. I walked beside her as we entered the parking lot. She guided me towards a blue colored rented mini-car. She opened the back door and hauled the trolley inside, bending in the process and giving me now a more apparent view of her magnificent butts. I wondered if she did that on purpose. I shook my head. Not possible. We had drawn that line years ago for the sake of our friendship. Maybe she has gotten more easy-going these days. She turned and got over to the driver's side and climbed inside. I threw my backpack with the rest of my luggage in the back and got inside beside her. "I told you to pack lightly duffer, what did you brought two bags for!?" She asked. "This IS me packing light..." I said with a shrug. She rolled her eyes as she started the ignition and we exited the airport. It was still a little dark outside, with dawn just starting to break. As we raced downhill on a rather empty road with thick forest cover on the right side and open grassland on the left, I looked over at her. Since the windows were down, the cool breeze was swooping in her face, her hair freely flowing back. I looked down at the curve of her bodacious rack and how they heaved up and down with each breath. I saw how goosebumps appeared on her bare arms and thighs with cold gusts of wind. I looked up at her slender lips and how she pursed them randomly. I looked at her, and how she appeared so different, so desirable. I quickly looked away, at the trees flying by. I knew my line of thinking was asking for trouble. I'd simply complicate the matters. You see, I usually kept to myself, didn't hang out much because I wasn't really good at socializing or expressing myself. I was the "good friend" you'd remember when you'd need some help. Yet I hated refusing or being rude to people when they'd ask. And I had a past with her. Out of all my friendships, I valued this one the most. I cared for her. I liked her. Deep in my thoughts, it was then I noticed a road-sign thanking for visiting the city and announcing the beginning of a "protected area". I read the last words out loud, and added, "Whoa, why are we going away from the city and into the forest!?" "Coz I'm not staying in the city" she mumbled. I stared at her for a second before saying, "...so then where? Aren't you on a vacation at Manaus?" She looked at me briefly, bit her lower lip and began "I'm not exactly on a vacation, I'm working. It just...feels like a vacation", after a pause she added with an apologetic face, "I'm living deep in the forest with an ancient tribe, and so will you". What!? I was at a loss for words, I simply stared at her. She noticed and said pointedly "look, it'll actually be good for you, I promise. Look at you, you need a little holiday yourself. Some time away from that digital life" "Sweetie, that's not even the point. I'm here because you said you needed me. But I don't see how am I going to help you live in a tribe. Why are you living in an "ancient" tribe in the first place!?" I said making quote gesture with hands. She took a deep breath and added "Actually you're not going to help me live there per se. I've already been living there for the past two months. You are just going to act as my um how to put this-research partner" she quickly looked outside her window. I squinted and said "wait a minute, didn't you already had a research partner? That web developer, what's his name again...Narendra?" She said with an exasperated expression "ew! His name is Nilesh. And actually I've been looking for the right moment to tell you this—" she looked at me and continued, "We're together, me and him. We started going out almost ten months ago. He was on the trip with me too but now he's not!" Suddenly her mood seemed to sadden. I put my hand on her bare shoulder to which she reacted with an instinctive twitch. She's a web-journalist and they work for a popular blog. I asked her, "Hey what's the matter? You can tell me, you know" She exhaled and said "what's there to tell, he bailed on me at the right fucking moment. We've been travelling around the world, studying and collecting stories of various tribes but just as we reached the last and the most important one, he bailed. We had a fight, he packed and took the first flight home. At first I thought I could do it alone but now I'm desperately in the need of a male partner. One whom I can trust" she looked at me through an affectionate smile. I smiled back and squeezed her shoulder and said "Alright, I'm here now. Besides, a vacation with a hottie, that's like my dream come true!" She hit me on the thigh as I started laughing and she continued driving. I sat back and thought what I had just learned. 'She has a boyfriend' -- After three long hours of driving since we had left the airport, we finally reached a small motel where-to my utter surprise-the road also ended. We were in the middle of the forest cover. The sun had fully risen now and the climate was starting to get even more humid than before. I asked gesturing around "Hey is this it? Looks less like a tribal place and more like a trekking point." "What. No! Not even close, dude. We're only like halfway there. "You'll get freshened up, take a shower and rest for a few hours to get rid of jet lag after which you'll join me for a meal and then we'll begin walking deeper into the forest, for another 3 to 4 hours" she said pointing at the forest on the opposite side of the motel. I nodded, "Yes ma'am!" Then she said "You hear that?" I listened carefully, except for some chirping birds and wind swooping through tree-tops, it was peacefully calm. "What? I don't hear anything!" I said. "Exactly" she winked and walked towards the door. I smiled and took my luggage and followed her inside. She had already rented a room for herself for last couple of months, apparently the whole motel was empty except for the Indian couple who were the owners. I realized that the Native American Indians had absolutely no similarity to us Asian Indians. I got to choose any of the three available rooms, and I chose the one beside Palak's. We reached our rooms, she said "see you later then! Rest properly" smiled and went inside her room. I stared at her room's closed door before going inside mine. I took the shower in a daze, all the time thinking about Palak, and how today she had appeared so different than I remembered her. Cold water ran down my face as my brain digested the facts I had learned so far: three days ago Palak had called me in the middle of the night and told me she was in Manaus, Brazil and urgently needed me to come meet her and promised to give details later, I had taken a flight the very next day and arrived here to find out that my friend is now a bombshell who is living with some tribe people doing god knows what, and on the top of that she was seeing someone, which was the only thing that bugged me, not even the part that I still didn't knew what I was supposed to do in a tribe with her. We had been friends since high school but as we entered college our friendship deepened, our conversations became detailed. Eventually we started sharing intimate thoughts and over a gradual period of time we realized we liked each other. But immature as we were, we couldn't bring our relation out of texts to talks, we never got physically intimate either and things got weird at some point, mistakes were made and we ended our brief fling. We decided to stay friends because that's what at least we were good at, put the past behind us and moved on. For me, the feelings stayed, I just didn't knew how to stop liking her. And here we were, seven years later, staying on each other's side through good and bad. But the latest revelation made me unsure if I really should continue to be her baggage. I came out of the shower and shook my head to clear it of swirling negative thoughts, I was already here and might as well just go with it. Moreover my body was rejecting to move anymore. I simply threw the towel on the floor and sprawled naked on the bed and fell asleep before even my head hit the pillow. I slept hard and long, until a distant voice woke me. I opened my eyes to see Palak hovering over my face, hands on her hips, she said, "You've slept for 5 hours. Its meal time. Cmon, gettup!" She drummed my chest with her palms and added, "And do take care of that before the meal. Seriously, what were you dreaming dude!" At first I simply stared at her, confused, but then she giggled and looked towards my lower body. "Shit!" I recovered and quickly put the pillow over my raging hard-on. She giggled again, turned to exit the room, then turned her head back and added with a wink "apparently I'm not the only one of us with a good package!" And then she was gone. Quickly I ran into the bathroom and again took a long cold shower. I felt like had been dreaming about her but couldn't bring myself to jack off to her thoughts. It just seemed wrong, always had. The temptation was too great though. I mean, it's not every day your lifelong crush admires your dick size. So I took a cold long shower until the throbbing erection shrunk to a semi, then I dressed and went to find Palak waiting at a table. A mischievous smile plastered over her face. I sat down and gave her a look, hoping she'd understand I didn't want to talk about it, she did. We ordered healthy food: salad, boiled eggs and some kind of mixed-fruit smoothie, I got a cheeseburger too as she told me it would be a while when I'll be able to eat junk food again. I asked her "So, tell me about your work. And my role too if possible." She talked in between bites and I tried to keep my eyes trained on her face. Tried. And failed. My eyes would eventually wander to her chest. Though her cleavage was covered, the form of her prominent breasts was quite obvious in that tight tank top. I began to wonder whether she was actively enjoying the attention she was getting from my eyes. She began "Well, I'm working on a new project titled 'Uncontacted Tribes: The Last Free People on Earth and How Can We Protect Them' And for that I've travelled around the world for the past year, collecting data and studying about various tribes, their daily lives, their beliefs, their languages, their internal governing systems, their rituals, you get the gist. The Native Indian tribes of the Brazilian Amazon are the last stage of my endeavor and not just any tribe, these are the Kawahiva. One of the most isolated tribes in the amazon basin. They've never been documented before, they have a strict policy of not sharing anything about themselves to outsiders. But our friends here-" she gestured toward the motel owners "-were actually a part of that tribe before they decided to live a separate life on their own. They run this motel for the tourists who come to trek through the jungle, though no one really goes that deep into the forest as we would. They taught me about the tribe and their language after which they introduced me to the leader with their own approval of trust. They still have contact with the tribe, provide them with supplies, medicinal treatment if needed, and blankets for the harsh winter. The tribe is living under the threat of illegal wood-traffickers and loggers even though this is a declared protected part of the forest. Hopefully my research journal will also catch the attention of government into saving the forest and hence the tribe and its unique traditions" She smiled at the couple and continued "So I was simply to become a part of the tribe and learn as much as I could. I started living there and have gathered almost everything about them. There's just a couple of things left for which I need your help" I raised my eyebrows at her as I munched the salad and said with a full mouth "So where do I come in?" She blushed a little for some reason and said, talking to her salad "It's better you find that out after we reach there" then she looked up and added "It's better that way, trust me" "mmm-hmmm, okay let's do it then!" I said and gave her a reassuring smile. Her face lit up, genuine happiness and excitement reflecting on her face, she said "I just can't thank you enough dude, for all you're doing" "Oh come on now, you know I'd help you through anything!" I said smiling "and moreover, I do honestly need a break from the daily monotonous routine. God, its suffocating sometimes." "Exactly!" she smiled and continued finishing her salad. As I finished my own, I observed her face, she was again deep in thought. Perhaps thinking about putting her research together. And as I looked I realized, this is the perfect woman right here! Beautiful and attractive, smart and hard-working, hot as it can get and most importantly a good person throughout. Helping Palak -- About 20 minutes later we were bushwalking through one of the thickest rainforest covers of the Amazon basin, me with my backpack and she with a small duffel bag slung across her chest, which made the largeness of her breasts even more obvious, seeing which I had visibly rolled my eyes and she had just grinned. I let her lead the way. She was still in the same outfit, I was in my fresh clean clothes. I chose a rather casual approach, a round-neck tee and shorts, since the sun was beating down hard and humidity was unbearable. The shade provided by the trees spared us of the sun but added to the humidity and within an hour we were drenched top to bottom in sweat, our clothes sticking to our bodies and in her case the tank top became a part of her skin and got 80% less opaque. She was wearing a lacy red colored bra underneath. Holy shit! I now tried looking everywhere but at her. We walked for hours, I would for some time walk behind her and enjoy the view of her assets and sometimes walk at her side, stealing glances at her perfect globes. I'd find my eyes lingering at her thighs when she would sit cross-legged across me during our 15-minute breaks. After walking for what seemed like eternity we finally came upon a clearing. My legs were screaming from pain. We also spotted a quick-pitch tent in the clearing. "That's weird" I declared. "Oh, it's mine. For keeping my stuff. Foreign materials are not allowed inside the tribe. We're not so far now" she said. "Oh, great! Then you take our stuff, I gotta go empty my bladder" I said. "Can I watch?" she said jokingly. I rolled my eyes. She's been saying that every time I went to pee. She knew I had a shy bladder. As I went back after a couple of minutes, Palak was simply standing there mindlessly kicking pebbles. She had put away our stuff inside the tent, and wasn't wearing her glasses anymore. Biting her lower lip, she seemed deep in thought as if trying to decide something. I've always had difficulty guessing what's on her mind at any given moment. She noticed me coming and looked up, "Hey, I thought you ran back to the motel", she said with a grin. "I would have, if my legs were ready. I doubt I'll make it even 2 kilometers back", I said. "Good, coz you need to make only 1 kilometer forward for reaching the tribe!" she said. Then again silence fell, a nervous tension seemed to be building between us. She then added, "I actually need to tell you some important points about the Kawahiva people before I introduce you to them" I nodded with interest and she continued, "These people have lived in total isolation from any civilization for more than two millenniums. They are a tight-knit group, a small population and are extremely protective of each other and their culture. "If ever they see you as a foreigner who's just come to exploit them, they will kick us both out of the village. So respect them genuinely. "More importantly, they don't worship a particular deity. They only worship Mother Nature and hence they give similar importance to the women of the earth and even though the leaders of the tribe consists of old men and women who mostly keep to themselves, we will only get to interact with a woman who is the caretaker mother of the people and the voice of the leaders. She's like a PR equivalent of the group, and she's my friend. So, disrespect her and I'll personally see to it they drown you in the river" I raised my eyebrow at her as she continued. "The leaders are really authoritative, you cannot even look them in the eye unless allowed to do so. And since you don't know the language I'd advise you to avoid contact with any women, unless you wanna be chased by angry naked men" "Naked? Why would they chase me naked!?" I asked quizzically. She quickly looked down and said "ummm, they're also a nudist group. I forgot to mention", she concluded. The silence that followed stretched for a full minute after which I said, "Excuse me!?" "Yeah" "You mean like, totally.." "Yup" "Even women?" "Yup" "You can see their.." "Yup" "Oh.." And after a moment I added "Well, it would be awkward at first. The only naked people I've seen have been in pictures, movies and porn." I added with a shrug. She grinned and shook her head, saying "You nerd. You're still a virgin aren't you?" I raised my hands in surrender, "Guilty as charged, my lady!" She crossed her arms and said in a serious tone "May I ask, why?" I looked away, exhaled and said with a shrug "just waiting for the right partner" The silence fell again. After a while I said "Let's get going, shall we?" She said "um, since we're going to be a part of the tribe, we too need to be...um...naked." I simply said, "Oh... No you can't be serious!" She said with apologetic yet pleading eyes "I am. Please don't be mad at me!" I was lost for words. I couldn't figure out if I was mad or excited upon hearing this! "Is it really necessary for us to, you know, stay naked?" I asked. She walked up to me and took my hands in hers, looked me in the eye and said "It's a part of their many beliefs. They won't let us stay there like this, we have to become a part of the people! They think of human body as a treasure and that there's no point in hiding it, and it's also fair since the naked attire is quite climate friendly" she pressed her lips together and added, squeezing my hands in hers, "Look, I know things have been weird for us on this front but I promise it won't affect our friendship by the slightest amount. It's just for a week, two at most. I'm almost at the end of my study. I really need this. It could be my big breakthrough!" She had a real longing look, tears started to well up in her dark colored eyes and that was it for me. I took her in an embrace, kissed on her shoulder, rubbed her back with one hand and said, "Hey, its okay. I guess, I'd have to try not to think of it in a sexual way. Um, just a normal Kawahiva routine, right? And you've already made me proud you know. You've become an almost rich writer and web-journalist, you're exploring the world. You're living the dream!" She sniffled once on my shoulder and broke away for a second, her arms were still around my neck, mine around her waist, our bodies pressed together, but then she smiled and kissed me on the cheek, said through a croaked voice "Almost rich. That is really sweet of you". We held each other for a moment, looking into each other's eyes. And even though we were sharing an emotional moment, I was increasingly becoming aware of our bodies pressed together, the mixed smell of our sweat was somehow arousing, her breasts were squashed onto my chest, and then I felt a stir in my boxers. My heart suddenly started beating faster and my pulse quickened, I was starting to get nervous and mindlessly started making circles on the small of her back. She simply maintained the unnerving eye contact. During the embrace, her top had ridden slightly upwards and now revealed an amount of skin. I continued to stroke her back and slowly made my way down, and finally touched her bare waist. A slight shiver passed through her body and we still stared into each other's eyes. Neither of us took initiative to break the contact, I was dying to know what she was thinking. I broke the silence, "And uh... Will Nilesh be okay with um, you know, us being together naked?" She suddenly broke the hug and took a step back. Fuck! I had to mention him, ugh! Her expression told me she was really mad at him. She said, "This is actually the reason he bailed on me you know. He wasn't comfortable with the nudist idea and that I'd be naked in front of other men. But you know what, I can do whatever the fuck I want, he can't dictate me. The priority is completing my research here and I thought me and him could also have fun along the way, but whatever." I threw up my hands defensively and even though I kind of instinctively hated the guy I had to defend him "Look, he cares for you and he's gotten to be possessive of you. And I know you hate that kind of thinking, being constrained by someone, but that's the way we guys are hardwired believe it or not! We get jealous easily." She pointed to nowhere in particular and said "I wasn't like giving myself away to anybody else, was I? I was with him" Was, I noted. "No, you're right." I said. She looked up at the sky and said, "Look, it's going to be dark in a couple of hours, let's get this day over with, please?" I shrugged. "Okay", I said. "Okay so.. I guess I'll go first, since I've already seen all of you", she said with a wink. And before I could form a reply, she grabbed the hem of her tank top and in one fluid motion took it off, revealing the red lacy bra. An ample amount of cleavage was spilling out of it. She had scattered freckles on her chest and a mole near her left breast. "Um, is that expensive?" I asked. She smiled sheepishly and said "yeah... this and a matching pair of panties was a gift from me to myself on my birthday." "Oh" I said, "please, by all means, take 'em off!" I finished, grinning. "Alrighty!" she reached back and removed the hooks, maintaining eye contact with me. She gave me one sly smile before finally taking the straps off her arms and letting the bra and my jaw fall to the ground. Now without any support, her breasts hung freely. They were gaped apart and faced away from each other, including her big nipples and areolas. And the most prominent thing about them was that they hung with their own mass like big water balloons, unlike the rock solid boobs I was used to seeing on models, porn-stars and movie stars. There was no chance she had fake boobs. I looked up at her face with big round eyes, she was suppressing a grin and blushing visibly, finally she said with a big smile "Say something!" "Wow, I.. don't know what to say,.. just that uh.. Those are gorgeous!" I said with a lump in my throat and asked, "Are those enhanced by any chance?" "You kidding me? You know I'm against artificial enhancements and all that. All natural and squishy double G's!" she said pridefully cupping her breasts and then her grin widened and I saw she was looking at my crotch, "aha! Someone likes them too much" she said grinning and pointing towards my shorts. I quickly looked down to find that my penis was proudly pitching an obvious tent on my shorts. I groaned, adjusted my erection upwards underneath the band of my boxers and said "Look who's talking. Your nipples are speaking two volumes!" She blushed and said, scratching her head behind an ear, "Well, this is kind of a turn on for me too, okay?" She then unbuttoned her shorts such that they slightly slid down, revealing the band and crotch of her lacy red panties. But that was it, she simply left the shorts unbuttoned, her panties barely revealed and folded her arms in front of her chest, hiding away her nipples, a look of mischief all over her face, she winked at me once and stood there like that. I nodded, suppressing a grin, put my arms on my waist and said, "You're up to no good today are you? That naughty lingerie, all the teasing. Didn't we just a moment ago agreed on nothing sexual? This is going in an opposite direction" She rolled her eyes and said, "Alright Mr. Boring, have it your way!" She then put her thumbs inside her panties and removed it along with her shorts all at once, kicked them towards where her bra laid on the ground and stood with her hands on her hips, concealing nothing. Meanwhile I also went on to remove my clothing, my tee shirt, my shoes, my shorts and finally my boxers. She watched the procession with patience and afterwards we just stood there, staring at each other's crotch. The first thing I noticed was her pubic hair, or the lack of it. There was only a wide patch of tiny hairs on and above her labia. She had trimmed very recently and for some reason hadn't shaved it completely. The labia itself was on a swollen mound and parted ever so slightly to reveal the inner lips. I drank in the sight before me, her long legs, her inviting pussy, her broad hips, her navel, her luscious breasts, her nipples managing to poke out from her dark straight hair falling from both sides, her gaping mouth and her dark brown eyes—fixated somewhere down towards me. She muttered, "Good lord!" Her voice jerked me back into reality. She looked up at me as she continued, "Nothing sexual!? You're totally hard and practically leaking—what's that, precum?" "Hey! It's not like I get to see a naked woman every day, and that too a particularly and incredibly hot one! It will subside after a while, I hope" I said in my defense. "So, shall we get going? It'll be dark soon", I added. Her expression suddenly got business-like and she said "oh man I completely forgot about that! Hurry, let's put rest of our stuff inside the tent" She grabbed her clothes and sneakers from the ground and jogged towards the tent hurriedly, her bare butts juggling more than ever. Taking a deep breath I did the same, ran to her and gave her my stuff to throw inside the tent. She wrinkled her nose as I handed her my clothes, underpants and shoes, and as I did, my upper arm slightly grazed her nipple. She opened her mouth in shock and took a sharp intake of breath while an electric jolt went up my body, my cock twitched and goosebumps rose on my arm. We stared at each other for a moment and then she turned to zip the tent while I turned to begin walking on the foot trail. We walked the rest of the way side by side in silence and the movements of walking brought me to a more relaxed state. But still I caught myself stealing glances towards her body. Even she seemed to be sneaking peeks at me now and then, but whenever I'd catch her doing that, she'd instantly look away. Boy, this was going to be one long and hard trip. Figuratively and literally. -- After about 20 long minutes of awkward silences and lots of nervous eye contacts and smiles, we reached what seemed like the entrance to the village of Kawahivas. Two stone carved statues of male warriors about 10 feet tall were on either side of the path, the statues featured long braided hair, were holding spears and without a surprise, were naked. And beside the statues, on the ground stood their life size versions of actual natives, blocking the way with their sharpened stone tipped wooden spears. I cocked my head towards Palak and whispered, "I admit, this is a little bit dramatic." She gave me a look, rolled her eyes and said, "Why are you whispering? They don't understand English." As we got near they bowed-to Palak. I looked at her and raised an eyebrow. She simply gave a shrug. Palak and the natives exchanged some words in the native language which sounded a bit like Portuguese yet the syllables were unintelligible to me. And then she turned to me and said "Let's go." They let us pass but just as we did, the guy on the left patted my shoulder from behind and as I turned he grinned widely. I gave back an awkward smile and waved at him. "Hey, are they expecting me?" I asked Palak. "Yes of course, I told them that my partner would be arriving. Actually there'll be a gathering too to... welcome you to the group" she said. "Hmm, that's nice of them!" I replied. We walked along the path with various flowered plants on both sides. It smelled pleasant and fresh flowers and of wet soil. After about 20 meters, the path through the flower garden made way to a huge clearing. It was roughly oval in shape and lined with huge trees of the forest, providing privacy and shade. Numerous huts made of mud walls and roofs made from bamboo sticks popped here and there without any regular pattern. On the left side of them, a little far from us, yet the nearest to us was a bigger hut, its walls and roof both made of bamboo sticks. It seemed like a hall or something facing the other huts. A similar hut was on the other far side of the oval. I also spotted another medium sized hut in the middle. Some people were working about or sitting idle and conversing before we got near and upon noticing us the murmur began to increase and people started calling other people and more came out their respective huts. Palak got closer to me and said "Remember, don't make too much eye contact with the women and especially with the leaders. I'll do all of the talking, will translate whatever's necessary." She paused, took a breath and added, "And please just go with anything that happens in next few days?" she said with pleading eyes. I smiled, took her hand in mine and said, "Of course" She smiled back and continued walking, still holding my hand. The natives had by now gathered in a semi-circle in front of the left hall. A tall lady with thick braided hair which fell up to her buttocks was standing in front of everyone else. I figured she was the woman Palak had talked about. Once we reached them, Palak gave a bow in the general direction of the people, it seemed like an official move hence I too followed suit. She said some form of two worded greeting in the native language to which the woman gave a pleasant smile. Her eyes were big, her body much like Palak's was healthy yet not chubby. Though she had small breasts and sported rather perky nipples. A thick bush of dark hair covered her genitals which was also the case with every single person surrounding us. She came forward, took Palak's hands in hers and the two of them exchanged a few sentences. Then the woman turned towards me. I nervously dropped my gaze. But she extended a finger and raised my chin. I met her dark eyes, her kind smile was welcoming and so was her voice. Palak translated her words, "She is welcoming you to the group. She hopes you find a new home here, with-your partner" But then she left the couple of last sentences untranslated. When I looked over at her she shook her head and muttered "Later". The woman looked me up and down, gave a one last smile and went back to Palak. She then said something which made Palak laugh along with most of the girls, except that Palak's cheeks were blushing pink at whatever that comment was. The woman then turned to the group and started speaking, her gestures implied she was introducing us and especially me to the people. It seemed she was announcing something and when she stopped the group bowed to her and dispersed. Some guys came over and patted me joyfully on the back. They all were talking in the native language, grinning at me. I simply smiled back politely and was glad nobody was trying to hug me. I looked at Palak, in the midst of a group of little girls. They were exchanging dialogues with her cheerfully, I didn't understood anything but it was apparent she knew them very well and was friends with all of them. Then The Woman joined them, embraced Palak in spite of the nudity, talking like the two of them were the best of buddies. There was a lot of giggling and glances towards me too. I just stood there awkwardly while the guys talked around me. One guy simply pointed at me and then at Palak and then interlocked his fingers together tightly, grinning at me. I gave him a what-the-fuck-are-you-talking-about look but he just grinned and thumped my shoulder. Fortunately I saw Palak taking leave from her besties and coming towards me for the rescue. Suddenly a sigh of relief escaped me and I couldn't help but smile at her. She came near us and extended a hand towards me, which I took into mine way too hurriedly. She politely said something to the guys, after which they bowed to her and some patted me on the back, again. Helping Palak She then guided me away from the crowd and into the village. Little children were playing on the ground, pulling grass, eating dirt, throwing dirt and grass at each other, chasing each other in and out of the houses. We reached the other end of the village hand in hand, this area was deserted, and the voices of the people had now dropped down to a distant murmur, instead I felt the sound of breeze rustling through the treetops and smelled the scent of wet soil like it was raining nearby. I noticed that there was a path on this side which led into the forest. We stopped and turned to look at each other. She took my other hand too, interlacing her fingers through mine. It had gotten past sunset and was getting darker. She looked so beautiful in the twilight, smiling and seemed genuinely happy. She said, "So, what do you think?" I looked around a bit and then said to her, "It's quite nice actually. Peaceful, calm. I feel relaxed already. So close to Nature. People seem really cheerful to see me for some reason. Apart from the struggle to keep my eyes trained on their faces, I think I can live here!" She laughed and said "Atta boy!" We just stood there looking at each other smiling. The freckles on her chest caught my eyes again, and I looked back at her face and asked nervously, "Sooo... What's next, Dinner? Kind of starving here" Her smile wavered a little, she said, "Um, yeah there will be a feast actually, to celebrate an event!" "That sounds great! What kind of event?" I asked. She left my hands and tucked a streak of hair behind her ear, clearly on the edge of being nervous. She began, "That's a long story, actually. I told you I've been studying Kawahivas for two months right? And I have studied and documented so much—" "Wait wait, this is what I don't get. How exactly are you documenting all this? Here we are with nothing on us, naked as our birth day, how do you record all that you learn?" I asked. She rolled her eyes and said "Well duh, I remember them. It's not like I'm writing a novel, the point is to discover their ways. So where was I?" "You have documented so much" "Right. Even though I've learnt all I could in the past 2 months, there's an event I haven't been able to study yet: their wedding ceremony" she told me. "Oh, so there haven't been any weddings for the past 2 months?" I asked. "There have been a few. But the thing is that it takes place in secrecy inside that hut" she pointed at the hut located in the middle of the village "No one attends these weddings except for the couple getting married, the priest and Ara" "What's an Ara?" I asked, puzzled. "It's a name, you dummy. In the Tupi family of languages of the indigenous, Araci means 'Mother of days' and that's what we call the woman you met earlier. Her friends simply call her Ara" she said. I nodded, "Oh, and what did Ara said to you after she was done with me? It was clearly something about me and it cracked everyone up" I asked. "Uh she said that what you lack in your skinny body you make up in your cock and that-" she suddenly paused. "And what?" "urmm, and that I won't be needing a cucumber anymore.." she said blushing deeply. "For what?" I asked, perplexed. "umm" she began, "I don't know how else to put this but uh-I use a cucumber for um-you know, for masturbating and It's-It's not exactly a secret among the girls", she finished with a nervous smile. Suddenly an image of Palak lying on the ground on her back, shoving a thick cucumber in and out of her pussy came into my mind. I quickly sat down on the grass as blood rushed to my penis. I sat with my knees up to my chin to hide my arousal. She too sat down cross-legged in front of me, her eyes trained on mine. We stared at each other, me wide eyed, and her with an innocent smile. I finally blurted out "Good god, that is quite a wild image" she blushed and looked down while I added, "Second of all, why would Ara even imply such a thing?" She looked up apologetically and said in a low voice "Because I told her so. That we're a couple", she finished, biting her lower lip. I furrowed my brows at her statement, something clicked in my brain and within a matter of seconds it all came crashing down on me. Wide eyed I said, "No..." She sighed and said "Yes" I looked at her sternly and began, "So that's your intelligent plan? Getting married yourself to find out the ritual? And you chose me for that honor. I mean, me? Of all people!" "Because there's no one I trust more!" she said. "And what about the fact that we'll be getting fucking married!" I was on the brink of raising my voice at her, but I tried composing myself and added in a voice as steady as possible, "Even if we overlook the fact—which we shouldn't by the way—that you are involved in a serious relationship with Nilesh, it's still us pretending to be lovers and getting married. There's complicated written all over it and you know what I'm talking about, don't you?" She took a breath and exhaled tiredly, she said, "Yes, I know. But I also know that as close friends we're entitled to do some crazy shit together. And if we just suck it up and decide it to be not complicated and have fun instead, then that's how it will be." I started to speak but she added, "Being said that, I'm not going to force you for anything either and we'll be perfectly fine if you too decided to walk away", she said crossing her arms in front of her chest, a look of hurt on her face. All the anger that was developing inside me dissolved away and I realized I had already made my decision two days ago when she had called me and said she needed me. I'd help her through anything, I thought. I got up, walked on my knees and sat beside her. Took her hand in mine, our shoulders touching. I said "I'm not going anywhere" She squeezed my hand tightly and turned to look at me. Her eyes were misty, her lips thin and seemed firm. She too glanced down at mine and I realized how close our faces had gotten. We were practically leaning on each other, her knee over mine, her breast pressing on my arm and her face mere inches away from mine. I lost track of time as I stared into those beautiful eyes, we kept inching forward until I started feeling her breath on my mouth. My own respiration picked up, could literally feel the heartbeats going frantic, I was too paralyzed to make the move first. Some eternities later she leaned completely forward and kissed me right beside the lips. She flicked my nose with hers gently a couple of times, our lips were so close that if I simply pouted I would touch them. She whispered on my lips, "Thank you" and put her forehead on mine while I closed my eyes and tried to remember what she was thanking me for. -- Afterwards we laid back on the grass, holding hands looking at the stars. We just stayed like that on the ground and talked for hours. Palak told me more about the natives. The halls on either side were separate living quarters for men and women. Individual huts were only allowed for married people. I also learned that every adult has a responsibility in the tribe. Some males go for hunting in the morning, while other remain for sentry duty i.e. guarding the village. There's also farming, handling a cattle ranch and fishing among other work you can do here. The females mostly do household works, gardening, taking care of the young ones, teaching the children about the Kawahiva traditions. The marriages usually take place 7 days after the official announcement. Ara had already announced ours this evening upon our arrival. Later we walked together around the village for a bit and then joined the feast. It was a feast for the commencement of our 7-day wedding ceremony and for that everyone had simply gathered around a campfire and dinner was served in mud bowls made through pottery and hardened by kiln-heating. I admitted to Palak that these guys were way more civilized than I had expected. For dinner we got cooked chicken dipped in some kind of spicy soup with salad to which I had exclaimed, "sweet, they've already discovered chicken curry!" I also noticed the lack of any kind of metallic utensil, tool or weapon, which as explained by Palak was due to the fact that they don't really have any access to metallic ores otherwise they would've discovered metal forming too. After the meal we went on a stroll around the village. Palak introducing me to various people, all were genuinely happy to see us together. And then we went inside the hut. The same hut where we would be getting married in 7 days' time. We shall be allowed to sleep together in the same hut for the following nights and when we were married we could build a separate hut for ourselves if we chose to stay. At first I didn't see anything but darkness, then my eyes adjusted to the light of two torches burning very dimly on opposite corners. The hut was not very big, almost a cube of 30 feet in length and width and height. And it was empty except for the two small torches. The ground was a little grassy, cold and soft, there was a handmade carpet laid in the middle. We sat on the carpet, talking. Palak's eyes were already sleepy as she said, "Now don't you get any naughty ideas at night." I rolled my eyes and said, "Sleeping with a hot naked girl, I'm not making any promises!" She yawned and laid down on her back, I followed and laid beside her, carefully avoiding to touch her. I was looking up at the ceiling when I heard her say, "Yeah, keep dreaming" But then I felt her hand on my chest and quickly after that her lips on my cheek, she kissed me lightly, whispered, "Good night", and then turned facing away from me. I looked at her perfect round butts and suddenly had an urge to reach out and grab them. Instead I just stared at them and said, "Good night, sleep well", and after a while, the exhaustion of the day took over and I fell asleep too. -- I was standing beside a river, it was daytime. I couldn't remember how I got there, I wasn't even able to move. I was aware of a pleasant warm feeling on the front of my naked body and also on my palm, which was weird coz I was standing in the shade of a tree. My penis was rock hard, pointing upwards. The sun was reflecting directly on my face through the water, I shielded my eyes with my hand. But the reflection got brighter and brighter until it became blinding and I literally couldn't see anything. The reality seemed to be slipping away like I was standing in one place and rest of the matter was dissolving around me, yet I still couldn't see anything in the blinding light. I started feeling like I was falling and grasped at something tightly. I lost sense of direction, of up and down and then suddenly I felt gravity hit me, but weirdly not on my feet but from the side. I realized my eyes were closed yet it felt brighter outside my eyelids. I noticed I was lying down on the ground on my left side and then I remembered where I was. I quickly opened my eyes and felt morning light flooding through door and found myself in heaven. I was still on the floor of the hut I had been sleeping in, but now I was spooning the naked form of Palak. My left arm had extended out and her head was resting on it. It seemed like both of us were pressing onto each other. My rock hard dick was pointing upwards and perfectly aligned in her ass crack. My right hand had went over her and grabbed tightly onto her luscious boob, it was actually much more than a handful. I savored the feeling of her body which felt soft and warm and the heavenly feeling of my erect penis clamped between her ass cheeks. I could feel her erect nipple pressed by my palm. And before I could think my hand instinctively squeezed her breast. I swallowed hard and my cock twitched on her butt crack, sending a shiver up my body. I quickly left her boob and put my hand on her tummy, thinking. If I tried to move away, her head's position would be disturbed and she might wake up. And in addition, she was kind of leaning back and pressing onto me, I couldn't just move away. I'd have to make her change the position first. I spoke slowly and quietly through the mess of her hair, "Hey. Palak. Wake up, we have a um, situation. No no no don't move don't move! Ohhh fffuck.." I gasped, because in the process of waking up she had slid down a little to remove her head from my arm but as her body slid down, her ass rubbed against my dick pulling down it's foreskin in the process. At first Palak began to say pleasantly, "Hmmm hey good mor-" Then she froze completely in place as revelation hit her, I had also put my hand on her hip to stop her from moving anymore. She quickly rolled away from me and sat up in a kneeling position facing me, she reached back with one hand, felt her butt and got a horrified look on her face and said, "what the... did we had anal sex?" I too sat up, reached out and grabbed her by the shoulders and said, "Hey calm down okay? I think we would definitely remember if we had sex, it's not like we were drunk or something. At some point we just started spooning, and um, judging by the precum on my penis and now on your hand, we might've...humped." She made a face and said, "Ew! You mean you humped me! That position could've been in no way pleasurable for me. God I'm so fucking horny right now", she said, burying her face in her hands. I looked at my erect penis and said awkwardly, "Hey if it's not apparent, I'm kind of horny too" She looked up and at my penis and rolled her eyes. Quickly as that she stood up grabbing my hand, started pulling me up saying, "c'mon get up!" I did and followed her outside, "What, where are we going?" "We need to sort some things out, my buddy", she said looking back and then started walking faster. I noticed people looking at us with weird expressions, especially giving attention to my boner. Palak said, "Don't worry, I've seen hundreds of morning woods walking around during my stay here. It's quite a normal routine for you guys and an eye treat for the girls". I blushed and said "that's comforting". A couple of girls I've seen earlier talking with Palak were giggling as we passed them, Palak just screamed something at them as she increased her pace even more and they burst out laughing. "Hey what did you say to them!?" I asked. "That I'm going to fuck your brains out!" She said laughing. We had just reached the edge of the village. A path went into the forest, the same one I had noticed last night. I had stopped dead in my tracks behind her upon hearing her comment and she too stopped and motioned for me to follow her. It was all happening so fast that I couldn't think, all rational thinking had gone somewhere and my brain and my penis were telling me to follow her. She said loudly, "Let's see. You have 60 seconds to reach the river, following this path. And if you do, I might have a treat for you!" She giggled and winked at me. I swallowed hard and broke into a sprint, passing her. The trot from the hut had brought down my erection to a semi and now it was going down even further. I didn't care, I just ran into that opening in the forest, following the slippery path covered with grass, mud and fallen branches and leaves. I had been counting too and after about 40 seconds I burst out on the other side of the forest onto a grassy plain, a shallow, calm and clean river was flowing about 100 meters from where I stood, a mild breeze was flowing which felt cold on my sweaty body. I bent down with my hands on my knees, catching my breath. Palak suddenly appeared from behind and beside me and burst out laughing as she said, "I should've asked you to jump into the river too! God that was hilarious. Did you seriously thought I was going to fuck you?" She then collapsed on the ground and continued with her fit of laughter, perfectly defining the expression ROFL. I simply stared at her and said "What! It was all a prank to exploit my horniness? You made me spoon you on purpose!" She tried to control her laughter as she said "No no that was really an accident and actually felt good, I was so horny. But then I couldn't resist and simply improvised", she continued laughing. "Oh really. You think it's funny?" I kneeled close to her where she laid on the ground. She suddenly stopped laughing, swallowed and said "what are you doing?" "This" I said as all of a sudden I attacked her, tickling the sides of her as she at once screamed and started laughing, pushing me with her hands and kicking her legs randomly. "No no, Stop! Pleeease stop!" she pleaded with me as I pinned her to the ground with my weight and continued tickling. Suddenly I felt something brush lightly on my tummy and too late I realized she had managed to get her hands past mine. The onslaught was such that we were both screaming and laughing at the same time as one managed to tickle the other, our legs were entwined pinning each other as we laid on our sides. I grabbed her hands on my body and held them there and said laughing "okay okay you win. You win." She too said laughingly "See? I always do" I left her hands and used mine to brush the tangled hairs from her face and then traced a path down her body up to her hips with my fingers and rested my hand there. We laid there our legs intertwined, hands resting on each other's bodies. "You're so beautiful", I told her. She put her hand on the side of my head, smiled and looked into my eyes lovingly. The look was one composed of affection. I wanted to kiss her, embrace her. But I resisted. "Wanna go for a swim?" she asked me. "I would love to" I told her. We got up and walked towards the river hand in hand. We played a little in the water, splashing each other, chasing each other, took a long swim up and down the river which was as clean and silent as rivers could get. I could even see the white sand and aquatic vegetation beneath the calm water. I came out before her and sat on the grass basking in the morning sun and watching her swim. I watched her wet, dripping body as she later came out of the water and walked towards me. Her wet hair sticking to her head, her big breasts dripping water, her nipples were erect again, my eyes stayed on her mound, two wet doors to heaven. She reached where I was and sat down beside me. I knew she was watching my erection. She knew that I knew. Neither of us cared. We sat in silence, drying ourselves in the sun. I wondered what she was thinking, wondered how she felt about us. She had always been in more control of her emotions than me. And I was conflicted with mine. I couldn't tell her though, for I always had been too scared that if I did, I could lose her even as a friend. "You alright?" she asked. I noticed she was looking intently at my face as I was lost in thought, her beautiful eyes squinting, her brows furrowed and her body practically glowing in the morning sun. I smiled and told her, "Yeah I'm okay. Just thinking about stuff" She took my hand and said "I know you're worried. That this situation and the sexual tension would affect our friendship. And I can assure you that.. If anything, we are getting even closer than before and I'm really glad we are." I shook my head, smiling I said, "How do you always figure out what's going on my mind?" She grinned and said, "Not always. But I know you mister!" Then suddenly she got closer, leaned in and kissed me full on the lips. It was nothing passionate or romantic, just a simple lip on lip contact and before I could even begin to respond to it, she broke away. She smiled at me and got up, said "We should get back now" "Yeah good idea. Just give me a minute, you go on." I smiled and told her.
