Her breast was more than he could palm, and spilled over his grip softly as he groped at her. His kiss was fast and confident, pressed softly against the lush crescents of her lips and her tongue darted out quickly to taste him, but only just before he pulled away. It was going to be fun playing with this one...

She ran her fingertips up and down his impressive musculature, admiring him for a moment longer before she spoke, "Aw, you're so nice..." She gushed, "Well, I'll just have to enter, then, if you think I should." She stood on her toes, ready to kiss him again-- that is, until the perpetual thorn in her side decided to make herself known once more to spoil everything that was fun and decent on this planet.

"Susan!" Philippa hissed, finding her sister at last, "We're in a beachfront store!"

"So?" Susan shot back defiantly, seeing the plastic keeping newer items clean behind them at the end of their aisle. She reached out to ruffle one of the garments, "The clothes have protection." she brought herself to kiss the Duke again.

"Susan!" Philippa snapped again, and Susan let out a long sigh, her kiss becoming a peck upon her new beau's lips instead of the long snog she had hoped for.

"Fine, don't get excited." she said sharply to Philippa, before her expression softened and she looked back at the Duke, "I'll see you at the beach." she flashed a smile and winked before trotting to her sister's side.

"Are you finished?" Philippa asked, clearly ready to leave. Susan crossed her arms in defiance.

"Witch."

"Slut."

Susan was about to hit Philippa with a whammy when she heard Lauren's panicked shouts from the changing rooms, and with an exchanged glance the sisters made to dash across the store.

***

"Oh! They're from the lost and found!" Caroline said, gasping at Lauren's explanation, clapping her hands together as she bounced, impressed both by Josephine's aim and the new game her new friend wanted to play, "Joey! I think she wants you to pull them! Like a puppy leash! How cute."

"Sure, real cute," Josephine said, fishing the top she'd wrangled from the cashier from her waistband and offering it to Lauren, spinning the water pistol on one of her fingers, "But I don't think I'm up for randy games in this tourist trap of a store. Pack those pupperinos away, and let's find Pips before she takes my head off, yeah?"

"Oh, she can't do that JoJo." Caroline giggled, "Philippa's not the Queen of anything."

"Let her know that," Josephine said, "And where's Elizabeth, anyway?"

***

"H-Hello...?" Elizabeth called softly from the entrance of the store, bags in her hands, "I-I'm ready..."

But there was nobody around.

He pulled Susan the final inch or so until their lips met, getting a taste of her for a couple of seconds before standing up straighter to break it off. He fancied himself a playboy; he wanted to see her work for it, too.


"Eh? Eh? Ah, hey! Stop!" Lauren tilted her head as Caroline leveled her water pistol, confused by the gesture and her request. A sudden spurt of water caused the girl to leap back, shocked by the sudden chilly splash on her shoulder. She tumbled backwards in surprise, clutching her shoulder as if she'd actually been injured -- but mostly just surprised the thing was actually filled up. "The heck, where'd you even get that?! And these AREN'T TARGETS!"

She flicked the water off her shoulder before putting each of her hands on her hips, scrunching her mouth to one side in annoyance. "They're for fun -- I mean, my fun -- that is, to be pulled on, err, I mean, actually like -- eh...? Hey, what? Hang on, you too? Wait, hold on..." Her head tilted the opposite direction as Josephine stepped up next to Caroline and grabbed the pistol, already getting a bit more flustered as she realized elaborating on why she got them was perhaps a little inappropriate for Caroline to hear. She covered herself and stepped backwards again, but she found the wall in short order. Her words weren't really stopping Josephine, though.

"You aren't even listenin' to me! Hey! Don't spray me! Not on my face! Please!" As she saw the devilish grin spreading on Josephine and the pistol being leveled, Lauren lifted her hands up in a surrendering motion. The last thing she needed was her makeup needing redoing before the shoot. "Help! Help! Susan! SUSAN! Heeeelp! Your twins're goin' crazy...! Ah! Hey, not there, it's cold! Ah, no! Cold, it's cold, stooooop!"

Lauren's squeals echoed out into the store proper as Josephine got, perhaps, the exact reaction out of her that she expected.

"Wow, that's so impressive~" She cooed, leaning a little closer into him now, her lips teasing to meet his, "Do you really think I could be Queen of the Beach? More than your girlfriend? But she's so pretty..."

She knew the answer before it left his mouth. She wanted to hear him say it. To know she was better than everyone else. To hear it. She frowned a little when his eyes lingered to Elizabeth, but her sunny disposition returned when he met her eyes again. It was fine, when it was with her sisters. They were all the same. A perfect set. But Susan was the best at this.

***

"Josephine." Philippa said as she made her way to the counter, the cashier hurriedly packing her sister's new swimsuit with a frown, desperate to find her companion and get these people out of her store, "Where are the others? We've spent enough time here."

"Dunno." Josephine said, patting the counter with a series of intimidating thumps, making the shopkeep flinch, "I was just finishing. You want me to find them?"

"Maybe just Caroline," Philippa said, her eyes finding Elizabeth as she frowned, realizing Susan was not with her, "I'll get the others."

***

Caroline grinned wildly as she held up a water pistol with a fish's pursed lips at the end, with a wink, "I want you to play with me!" she says, "Hold super still, I want to get a bullseye!" She pulled hard on the trigger, squirting once-- where had she even found the water?!-- her aim was to the flash of pink beyond that ring of silver, but her aim was not true. The cool blast hit Lauren's shoulder.

"Aw!" Caroline griped.

"That ain't how it's done." A voice came from behind Caroline, as Josephine found her way to the changing room, "Hand it over, Carrie, and I'll show you how to really make the target work...!"

Caroline smiled at this, gladly handing the pistol to her sister with a fawning "Thanks, JoJo!" as Josephine took aim at Lauren, a wild grin on her face.

"Don't squeal too loud, princess." She purred confidently, as she took the shot.

His own eyes stole a glance up and down Elizabeth as they passed her by, before turning back to Susan. "Yeah, 'course doll. My ma's the CEO of Savannah Shipping, so it's kind of my show, y'know? You and all your sisters are most def on the invite list," he emphasized with a big smile that showed off his almost supernaturally white teeth, emphasized all the more against his tanned skin. He turned a corner at the end of the current aisle, now placing them in a distant corner of the store. Here he stopped and turned to face Susan, placing a strong hand on her side. "Hey, I dunno if you're into it but we got this contest, and y'know I really think you might totally have what it takes to be Queen of the Beach this year, babe," he glanced down for a moment as his hand got a bit more daring. Stepping a bit closer, his dreamy emerald eyes gazing into Susan's, he waited for her response.


"I have so hit puberty!" Lauren yelled back childishly to Philippa's chest, followed by a righting of her eyes as the other girl called her out directly. She turned her head sharply to the side with a humph, but it didn't last. Her jealous curiosity was too much to keep her looking away for too long -- just how was she going to fit all that in? Her eyes slid back to their corners, flushing more and more at the process. The finishing bounce as she pulled the straps caused the petite girl to cover her chest with ignominy. Philippa had her so outclassed in this department there wasn't much she could say back; her jealousy was so overwhelming the whole town could feel it radiating from the young newtype.

An agitated groan of a whimper was all she could force out, clutching her arm over her chest tighter as Philippa motioned at it. As she left the room Lauren hesitated, still gnawing on her lip and racking her brain for a comeback. Though she couldn't think of one, something else came to mind. "H-hey, you're s'posed to pick me out a swimsuit, too...!" she called out, throwing open the curtain with one hand and waving her other frantically, watching the sassiest twin walk away like she owned the world. She stared for a good second, hoping she looked even better when she'd been storming away from the cashier a moment ago...

"Ah?! Oh! Caroline, I didn't see ya there..." Lauren hopped with surprise as she popped up from the side, dangling around a more appropriate sized top for her. Lauren reached out for it but stopped just short of it, eyeing Caroline's cheery face and wanting to think of something suitable as a prize. She was a bit too frazzled to think right, but as she looked at Caroline she wanted nothing more than to avoid disappointing her. "Umm... Well, uh-- I-I... Yeah? Yeah, it's -- well -- what kinda prize do you want...?"

She hoped it wasn't anything as esoteric as a watergun or inflatable tube. Caroline might've found them around here somewhere, but she imagined that no one else would be able to.

Susan asked, biting at the crescent of her bottom lip as ideas formed in her head, blue eyes studying the surfer for a moment before she spoke again, "Yeah, that sounds like fun, if everyone's going to be there..."

Her gaze found Elizabeth as she passed like a shadow between racks, holding another ravishing swimsuit in one of her hands. Susan smiled, turning her attention back to the Duke as she hooked an arm in his, allowing the strong trunk of his forearm to rest softly against her chest, "And all of my sisters are invited too?" the question was innocent, but she thought briefly of Caroline and swallowed a little thickly. Philippa would keep an eye on her, surely...

"Of course not, I've actually hit puberty," Philippa shot in response to Lauren's dazed comment, before holding herself with irate modesty under the other girl's scrutiny, "And stop looking!"

Philippa worked the black swimsuit over her figure, until it stretched tight over her hips and chest, adjusting the tight fabric with a fast snap as she hooked her fingers under the edges at her thighs. Her impressive bosom bounced as she looked cooly over toward Lauren then, tossing her hair over her shoulder with more than a little attitude.

"I'm assuming Susan is finding you a top more suited to whatever you have going on up here," She gestured noncommittally at the girl's torso, "Hopefully she didn't get too distracted."

Philippa pulled the curtain back, making her way back into the store. Her walk was showy in her haughtiness, with a lot of hip to it. It was then that Caroline's face popped into view from the side of the entryway, her hand stretched out to shake a dangling bikini top toward Lauren with a big smile.

"Found it!" she chimed, wiggling the garment at her new friend, "Do I win a prize?"

"Name's Brody by the way, but everyone just calls me 'The Duke,' or ya know, just 'Duke,' whatever, 'cus I really tear it up, ya know? Gonna catch some waves later, you should come, maybe bring your little fiery topless friend along and we can all have some fun, it'll be like a totally chill time." A bit emboldened by everything that was unfolding, he really laid it on thick. The further he and Susan moved from the cashier, the bolder he got. "Little fun in the sun, y'know? Some of my boys'll be there too, so like, everyone can come. Then after we're gonna have this rockin' party at night down the beach a ways, everyone's gonna be there..."

Meanwhile, Lauren had run face first into quite the pillowy problem. She practically jumped into her in her frantic scurry to get back in the privacy of the room, and now her face was buried in Philippa's impressive... stature. Not quite understanding what happened for a moment, she glanced up. "N-not small..." she muttered in something of a daze, before scurrying backwards. Lauren's flush matched Philippa's, and though she tried to look her in the eyes her submissive nature prevented her from doing that. Well, that, and as her head tilted down she couldn't help but stare.

"I-I-I... Um...!" The girl stammered, holding up her hands defensively before trying to explain, "I had to come back in, cause I can't be topless in the store, and the cashier got all bitchy with me, so I ran back in here, I'm sorry...!" She worked her way along the wall to put as much distance as there could be between her and Philippa, right up until she was in a corner and couldn't possibly inch away anymore.

"Well, that information is handy, isn't it?" She said, trotting contentedly to the shopkeeper's easily distracted boyfriend, taking possession of his arm for herself, "Now that we know, will you help me pick something out in the appropriate size?" She flashed him a charming grin as she began to tug him gently away from his inadequate lady friend, who watched the two with mouth agape with indignation.

"Hey! HEY! Why you--"

"U-Um, but I wanted to buy..." Elizabeth breathed, and the bitchy girl rounded on her at once.

"You're not carrying anything to buy!" she snapped, making the timid quintuplet flinch, "If you're going to--"

She was cut off by a pair of swim trunks and a bikini top slapping her hard in the face as Josephine returned to the register at last.

"M'buying this!" She snarled, "Carried 'em over and everything."

"B-But these are mismatched!" the cashier complained venomously, her eyes darting helplessly between the garments and her man as he was lead away by Susan, "You can't just--"

"HAH?" Josephine griped loudly, and the girl swallowed hard, "I can't, huh? Lizzie, go find somethin' nice while I finish my purchase."

"N-No fighting...!" Elizabeth protested softly even as she glided back toward the aisles.

Meanwhile, Philippa was stepping into her swimsuit when her own impressive chest was met with a painful knock as another person barreled into the changing room with her.

"Ow!" She cried, "This one's occupied, for Pete's..." she trailed off, recognizing Lauren by her hair alone immediately, "You! Why are you back!? You don't even have anything new to try on!" she covered her own chest, cheeks flushed, why was she just walking in on people now!?

Fortunately for her (or fortunately for Lauren, perhaps), she'd gotten a bit distracted for the time being. Feeling the material of the newest bikini, she nodded several times in succession. "Mmmhm, definitely, definitely! I can't wait to put it on, just need to... Huh?" As she was so busy gushing over the newest choice, she didn't even notice the attention she'd garnered. Nor why, for that matter.

She turned her head to face the shopkeeper, confused and surprised to even hear her. Surely she'd been far too wrapped up in her boytoy to pay them any attention. "Eh, me?" Lauren motioned to herself with a finger, as the woman motioned downwards. About that time she noticed the direct stare and smile from her catch, causing her to glance downwards. Her face filled from bottom to top with red, but then the girl just went ahead and ran her bitchy mouth.

With a scoff, Lauren stepped back and put her hands on her hips, glancing over at Josephine's particular tastes before back to the girl. "Oh, I'm sorry, I just came out here to try and get the right size since you aren't helping, but it looks like at least someone thinks they look good!" A gesture with her left hand singled out the guy, who was still staring her down and giving a thumbs up behind the girl's back. She spun around and his hand and gaze quickly shifted in the nick of time. Lauren's hands swept up behind her back, untying the ill-fitting top until it fell free. A seductive little shimmy accompanied it, effortless for the former dancer, stealing back the guy's attention. The brat of a shopkeeper spun back around just to be hit when Lauren flung the top at her. "Now that you're not busy, I could really use this in my size. 32B, by the way," emphasis was given with directed pushes and bounces of her hands, and despite the shopkeeper's insistence the store had suddenly turned into a stripclub. Lauren turned about, whipping her hair as she did and looking over her shoulder. "And don't worry about the bottom, it fits just fine," she finished in a sultry tone as her fingers pulled the thong up, giving plenty of emphasis to her backside as she strutted away to the changing rooms.

The second she turned the corner her front dropped and she clutched her chest. "Not small, not small, not small not smallnotsmallnotsmallnotsmallnotsmall..." She repeated aloud to herself over and over, hurriedly opening the door to the changing room she'd left and shutting it behind her.

Back with Susan and Elizabeth, the shopkeeper was giving the beach boy an evil stare. "Hey, nipple rings are hot. You should get some, babe, would totally look great on you," he said in a poor attempt to defuse the situation.

Mature!

Erotic!

Philippa met Lauren's eyes, blue on blue in a deadpan as the girl went off, and with deadpan harpoon punctuated a final listing, "Small."

She didn't much catch the world of difference Lauren was referring to, but she quickly followed Susan out of the changing room, leaving Philippa to wonder whether or not she was aware she was prancing around the store all but naked at this point. Well, she supposed if she got in trouble at least it would be Susan's problem. Then she would get to relish the 'I told you so' later. She looked at the strappy black one-piece she'd selected for herself, then toward the mirror. Well, as long as she was in here...

"Right?" Susan said, turning to Lauren as she held up the bikini she had pilfered from her sister, "If you wear more like this, your shoot is sure to be a success! It's a good thing I found it, huh!"

Elizabeth's shoulders sagged with defeat, but she put on a shy smile, only to have it falter the moment she heard a disgruntled "HEY YOU!" from behind them. Susan turned, coming to the gaze of an irate shopkeeper, her target's attention long since having been stolen by the silver rings which shimmered from Lauren's pink nipples.

"This isn't that kind of store, Miss." She sneered, gesturing to the other girl's chest with a flippant flick of her wrist, "Not that you have much to advertise anyway." She gave a triumphant smirk as her eyes caught the men's swim trunks Josephine was looking over, then returned her attention to Lauren, "Though with how you look, those may be more your speed."

"..Well?!" She burst out, just as Caroline broke the ice at the same time. Sweet Caroline, melting away all the awkwardness with at least some show of enthusiasm. Lauren brightened immediately and placed an arm under her breasts, preparing to make a show of things and tell Caroline all about their merits and how much fun they were, or something of the sort. Her follow-up, though, sort of ruined the little bit of triumph she was about to revel in. From smiling to frowning, then back to smiling and now frowning again...

"C-cows?! What? No! They ain't for -- They're cool! Mature! Erotic!" Her arm squeezed, lifting and pushing for the slightest bit of jiggling emphasis. She quickly turned her head towards Philippa as she so casually sized her, then to the equally nonchalant Susan who agreed. Pained, wide eyes accompanied her incredulous response, "A? A?! These are-- They ain't-- How could you think they're A cups!?" More deliberate bouncing ensued using both hands, now, as the girl appeared nearly on the verge of tears. "B! They're Bs! Healthy, perfectly respectable, perky Bs...! There's a world of difference!"

Susan's vocal musings frustrated her more, having so quickly just dropped the subject like that after (unintentionally, perhaps) wounding her so. "It's not juvenile at all, it's s'posed to be sexy! A beach shoot, sexy bikinis and lots of skin and maybe I'll even go -- hey! Where're you going?!" As Susan took off Lauren hesitated for just a few moments, puffing out her cheeks with indignation. Casting a glance at Philippa, she thoughtlessly scrambled after Susan.

Lauren collided with Elizabeth as she stopped, forcing her way into Susan's view by nestling up next to the sister she had only barely been acquainted with. That didn't stop her from hooking an arm around Elizabeth's arm, her other pointing at Susan. "Hey! P-p-petite?! They're not petite!" Said the petite girl with her petite chest still bared, "modest! And c'mon, you didn't even say anything about 'em!? What, they don't look good?! They're -- Oh, wow, that's really sexy, where the heck were you hidin' that one? I mean, I liked the other one, but this one's amazing! I guess I do need multiple, but y'know, still, couldn't you'a shown me this one first?" Mid rant at Susan, Lauren's eyes caught the two tone bikini and her eyes lit up. It was exactly the mix of provocative yet classy she wanted. Not even realizing she'd just taken it from Elizabeth, she turned to the girl she had gotten uncomfortably close to. "Your twin has the best eye, that's gonna look just perfect on me, don't you think?"

"Oh! I've never seen those not on someone's ears before!" Caroline cried, breaking the long silence with incredible energy, "B-But I thought only cows got them anywhere else..."

She thought hard for a moment, and Philippa's expression shifted to one of boredom.

"Maybe an A?" she asked her sister, who gave a thoughtful hum in response.

"I'm not sure if their shoot is looking for anything too juvenile, Caroline's choices may not be the best after all..." Susan said ponderously, before her eyes caught Elizabeth carrying a gorgeous lavender and white two piece to the register and she let out a little gasp.

"Oh Lizzy that's perfect! I knew I could count on you!" Susan said as she dashed to her sister, snatching the swimsuit out of her hands, "Does it come in anything a little more..." She fished for the right word, "Petite?"

"O-Oh, but I was going to--" Elizabeth began before Susan stole the purchase from her arms, "A-Ah... okay..." She sighed in defeat, "Um... I found everything over there..." She pointed to the section she was previously at with a timid finger.

Lauren groaned painfully and uncovered her face, staring up at Philippa with narrow eyes. It might've been a scary look, if her face didn't look sun burnt from how flushed she was. "I don't need things from the kiddie section! J-just because my boobs're small, doesn't mean... Some people like smaller chests, y'know! Kit says they're perfect! So did some of my..." Of course, that was leaving out the part where she never, ever believed Kit when she said that. Not with the sort of taste she had in other women. Standing up and grabbing the ill-fitting top, she continued, "Do these look like a child's?" She pulled it open shamelessly and exposed her modesty to the gathered trio. A pair of dangling silver rings seemed to be the actual emphasis of her question, as if they changed anything about the size she could wear.

Being a bit too preoccupied with her insecurities, she didn't even notice Caroline's water gun. Her eyes were shut, in fact, head tilted up like she was revealing the most glorious and amazing showcase of all time. And, of course, her back was arched as most as possible, giving herself just that extra bit of curve and emphasis. A fantasy might have even been playing out in her head about how impressed they all were with her ability to go to a shop and get a piercing, as though it were the most incredible feat one could accomplish. Cheers, too, there were definitely cheers. She could hear them so clearly...

She was getting pretty full of herself with Lauren's praise. She did have a good eye for clothes and measurements. This girl was going to look fantastic for her shoot. That is, until the girl's voice broke her from her thoughts. Smaller...?

Oh.

Susan saw the issue.

Her eyes scanned the fabric as it swung baggily over the other girl's chest for a moment before she smiled, and shook her head comfortingly to Lauren, "That's alright, no need to worry," Then, she called over her shoulder, "Carrie! What section did you find that one in?"

Her voice carried loud throughout the store, easily overheard. Maybe outside. Maybe to Jupiter. Caroline answered.

"Coming~"

Philippa responded too.

"The kiddie section is out near the front of the store." it was flat, embarrassingly matter-of-fact. And when she poked her head in to check on the girls, her snort said a lot more than her tone did. Caroline joined them quickly.

"I'm here!" Caroline said, carrying a water-rifle in the shape of a pink porpoise, "I can show you where I got it, you want the same kind?"

"I totally get that, though," the slender redhead called out from behind the door, continuing a different line of thought. "Y'all must get compared all the time, and sometimes you just wish you could be your own person, right? Or be someone else, Or just look different. Standout in ways you can't, and stuff, right...? An' I bet there's all kinds'a pressure to live up to the best aspects of each other, too, huh?" There was a brief silence from inside the room after her little monologue, but an attentive Susan could hear a sharp inhale of breath and a disappointed groan. Inside, Lauren was pouting at her reflection in the mirror. The swimsuit looked great, for sure, but there was a small problem.

The door opened slowly, and Lauren was looking down at her feet with a flushed face. "You had a pretty good eye for my measurements, but, um..." The problem was immediately apparent to anyone with a fashionable eye. The bottom fit fine, showing off her thighs and butt wonderfully, but the top hung just a bit loose. Loose enough that some unique jewelry could be seen if Susan's eyes were adventurous enough. "I was... wearing pads, so..." The words came out slow and painfully, accompanied with a total refusal to look at her new friend. This was actual torture to have to admit. She wanted to just disappear as she finished saying, "I need a smaller one..."

The timing couldn't have been worse for Caroline to run up with an actual child's swimsuit, or at least what certainly looked like one. It was as cute as could be with little cartoon seals on it; the exact kind of design she'd have loved as a little girl herself. Anytime other than right now Lauren'd have found it just the right sort of cute, but she was undergoing her regularly scheduled self esteem crisis. Lauren froze staring at it, face turning a brighter and brighter red. On the one hand, she knew Caroline didn't mean anything by it. On the other hand, she was literally being offered a child's swimsuit. That wasn't enough, though, as the cruel boot of reality was also shoving her into an early grave with the realization it would fit her without any problems.

"I... I think I need to sit down," Lauren said as the air started to get a little too hot and her head began to spin. She tried to take a step backwards but her brain forgot how knees and ankles worked, tripping her up with literally none of the grace of a model. Instead she stumbled against the doorframe before falling face first out of the changing room.

"Now, we'll just get rid of this thing," She said as she ushered Lauren toward the doors with her choice-- the only right choice-- remaining. She laughed softly at the girl's observation. She could tell critical thinking wasn't really this girl's strong suit. But then, she liked that. It reminded her of Caroline, "I suppose we are pretty different-- we have to be, I think. Our own people, to be taken seriously."

Her gaze grew distant for a moment before she shooed Lauren toward the door, a grin blooming on her face, "Well, go on! Let's see what a good choice I made!"

"I FOUND ONE!" A bubbly chirp rang out from the aisles behind them as Caroline bounded toward them with a one piece patterned with colorful seals and sporting a little skirt, "Isn't it cute? Go on, try it!"

"Carrie, she can't wear that to a fashion shoot," Susan said gently, her eyes unwilling to leave the oppressively cute design, "It's, um..."

"What's wrong with it?" Caroline asked, beginning to pout. Susan waved her arms to ward off the possibility of oncoming tears.

"What if the photographer likes it so much he asks her to wear more from the same designer? Could you find more?" Susan lied desperately with a smile. Caroline thought for a moment, and then smiled.

"I guess not, I don't know who made it," She admitted, "Thanks, Susan! You know so much about clothes!"

"I do, don't I!" Susan praised herself. Somewhere beyond Caroline, Philippa's scoff sounded from behind the racks.
