i skinny dipped this august in a pool in my boyfriend’s neighborhood. it was the middle of the night, we’d just downed some gin and juice, and i was feeling liberated. there was an outdoor pool in his community, so we snuck into the pool area. i dipped my feet in the water. it felt soo good that i decided to take off my clothes and start swimming around. it was magical to swim under the moonlight, with nothing between the water and my skin.
