The conversation secretly emboldened Beth. Did her dad really have those thoughts about her? She knew, almost in the abstract sense, that her father was a man, after all, with needs and desires. Could he possibly desire HER?
The girls would never lie, especially in The Circle, and they all agreed that her dad did find her desirable. Still, she was reluctant. She could not convince herself that her dad could possibly feel the same way as she did, so she pushed these feelings down deep, where they festered, until she could take no more, and had to bring herself off to get some relief.
She discovered a favorite place to do this was in the bath. Her dad spoiled her by letting her buy whatever fragrances and bath oils she wanted, teasing her that her bubble baths were certainly getting more expensive these days.
Beth lay in the warm water, caressing her nubile breasts, pinching her erect nipples, wondering what it would feel like to have someone suck on them. She soaped up her tummy, then her thighs, and finally her crotch, wishing other hands were touching her this way.
