She was also feeling giddy, excited over their successful heist. Now she wanted to go for a swim, eager to shed her bikini from the excitement of the moment.<\/p>\n<p>She got up and walked down the steps into the shallow end. Then she set out across the pool. It wasn&#8217;t long before her two bikini pieces were floating around in the water.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;That&#8217;s a good idea,&#8217; Allison thought as she watched her friend take her suit off. She stood up and removed her bikini as well. Then she changed her mind as she sat back down to enjoy a little more champagne.<\/p>\n<p>She grabbed the bottle and drank right out of it, thinking about their recent heist. She was becoming a little tipsy from their successful venture. But there was no harm in that, right?<\/p>\n<p>As she took another drink she began to consider how they\u2019d acquired the cash in the briefcase. The more she thought about it, the more agitated she became. Something didn\u2019t feel right.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Why should I share with her?&#8221; she slurred tipsily. &#8220;I&#8217;m the one who did all the work.&#8221; And with that a rather dangerous idea sprang to mind.<\/p>\n<p>Removing her sunglasses, she walked to the shallow end and stepped unsteadily into the pool. That was a nice haul they\u2019d taken in. But splitting it only one way would be so much more profitable.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/?attachment_id=17956\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-17956\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17956\" src=\"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/File0001.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/File0001.jpg 640w, https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/File0001-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a>She walked over to Tammi and drunkenly asked, \u201cSo what are you going to do with your share?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was going to open a hair salon.

Allison struggled as she cried out, her red hair flowing all around. The more Tammi thought about it, the more she liked the idea of keeping the loot all to herself.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/?attachment_id=17962\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-17962\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17962\" src=\"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/File0014.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/File0014.jpg 640w, https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/File0014-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a>Allison struggled to get out of the grip of her co-worker. She finally broke away. Then she swam all the way to the edge of the pool where a weight belt beckoned to her.<\/p>\n<p>For a moment Tammi felt regret. She called out, \u201cLet\u2019s not fight, ok? There\u2019s plenty for everybody.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In reply Allison declared, \u201cI want it all!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As her coworker approached she jumped onto Tammi\u2019s back and pushed her back under the surface. She struggled with her and the weight belt, wanting to attach it if possible. Arms and legs waved everywhere as the two drunken women struggled with each other.<\/p>\n<p>Allison finally managed to wrap the belt around Tammi, making sure to secure it. Then she stretched her coworker out along the pool floor with a firm grasp around her waist. The belt would help, but she needed to make sure her partner in crime never got back up.<\/p>\n<p>Tammi bubbled as she reached for Allison&#8217;s hands, desperate to pry them loose. The alcohol was affecting her ability to hold her breath as well as her ability to think clearly. She struggled to push herself up off the pool floor.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/?attachment_id=17964\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-17964\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17964\" src=\"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/File0019.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/File0019.jpg 640w, https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/File0019-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a>Allison sensed her coworker was about to break free again.

Then she placed a foot down on Tammi&#8217;s back, holding her down with relative ease.<\/p>\n<p>Tammi grunted and bubbled as her chest heaved. She couldn&#8217;t rise up and she couldn&#8217;t get the foot off her back! She wriggled and squirmed, but she just couldn\u2019t get back to the surface.<\/p>\n<p>Allison laughed with wicked glee.

Tammi inhaled reflexively, sending her into painful spasms. She coughed, choked and gurgled as her lungs began to flood while her breasts bounced and wobbled.<\/p>\n<p>Allison watched with intense satisfaction. She could see the air coming up in huge bursts.

She couldn\u2019t break out of her grasp and she couldn\u2019t reach the surface. She was going to drown because the bitch wanted all the loot for herself.<\/p>\n<p>She tried to scream but nothing would come out. She tried to struggle but she felt as though she was submerged in molasses. Tammi\u2019s grip was tight, her expression one of cruel vindictiveness.<\/p>\n<p>Allison cried out as she sat upright in the patio chair. She panted heavily for breath over the dreadful nightmare. She was groggy from sleep and drink.<\/p>\n<p>She looked down into the pool. Tammi was still there. The weight belt was still wrapped around her waist.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI deserve it all!\u201d she told the corpse. \u201cI did all the work. Why should I share it with you?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She reached down and found the nearly empty bottle of champagne. She took a long drink, almost finishing the bottle. The sun was warm and she was so tired.<\/p>\n<p>She thought about going for a quick dip in the pool. But Tammi was still in the water. She hadn\u2019t bothered to call anyone to get her out.<\/p>\n<p>She looked down at the briefcase full of money. It was still there. It wouldn\u2019t do to call anyone while the proceeds of their theft lay visible for the cops to observe. She would wait to call later.<\/p>\n<p>She relaxed in the chair, thinking of what they\u2019d done to steal from their boss. A smile crossed her face. No one would ever suspect it was them.<\/p>\n<p>The sun was warm; she was still feeling tired. She thought about going inside and hiding their purloined cash. But she was getting sleepy again. Perhaps she would feel better after another little nap.<\/p>\n<p>Once more Allison drifted off to sleep. And once more she dreamed of being drowned in the water. This time it was her boss who was holding her under, angry over her theft.<\/p>\n<p>She struggled in his grasp. But once more the water felt like molasses. She could hardly move.<\/p>\n<p>She tried to tell him it had all been Tammi\u2019s idea. She tried to beg him not to drown her. Now he was tying her feet together in order to make her drowning more effective\u2026\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>Allison cried out again as she woke up. A figure blocked the sun coming down on her. She looked up to see Mickey standing over her. Lefty was kneeling while tying rope around her ankles.<\/p>\n<p>With a fright she turned to look for the briefcase of cash. It was no longer there. \u201cI moved it,\u201d Mickey explained matter-of-factly as though guessing her next question.<\/p>\n<p>Lefty was still tying her ankles together. On the cement next to her chair lay a circular, iron weight. Allison cried out in alarm.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA present from Phil,\u201d Mickey explained again. \u201cHe doesn\u2019t like bitches like you and Tammi stealing from him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She inhaled sharply as her mind scrambled to recover the situation. Then she pointed at the water. \u201cIt was all Tammi\u2019s idea! She\u2019s the one who suggested we steal it! She was going to drown me, but I got her first!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUnlikely,\u201d Mickey replied in that damnably calm voice. \u201cShe barely knows how to type, file and make coffee. Phil knows it was all your idea.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was all Tammi, Mickey! I was going to bring it all back; I swear! You know me better than that!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes, I do,\u201d he replied evenly.<\/p>\n<p>At that point Lefty began attaching the rope from Allison\u2019s ankles to the iron weight. She gasped again as she sat up. Then she tried to beat on him with her fists\u2026 \u201cLefty, stop it!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mickey calmly grabbed her arms. He forcibly pulled them behind her back. Then he turned her around to get a better view of her backside as he began securing her wrists together with more rope.<\/p>\n<p>Allison began hyperventilating. She was completely sober now. Phil\u2019s two henchmen were scaring the shit out of her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMickey, I was going to pay it back; I swear!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m sure you were, Allison.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe whole thing was Tammi\u2019s idea! Mickey, you\u2019ve got to believe me!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSure, Allison; sure.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMickey; stop!!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn a minute, Allison.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In her panic she hadn\u2019t realized she was still naked until now. Allison saw only one way out of the jam she was in. In growing desperation she gasped, \u201cLet me go and I\u2019ll do anything you want!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m sure you mean that, Allison.\u201d He was still so damned calm.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou know I mean it, Mickey! I\u2019ve seen you giving me the eye! I know you want me! I want you too! Let me go and I\u2019ll prove it to you! I\u2019ll prove it to you both!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn a minute, Allison.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She let out a yelp as he tightened the rope around her wrists. She was wide-eyed and panicked to see Lefty finish up with her ankles and the weight. In desperation she told him, \u201cYou know you want to; don\u2019t you, Lefty? Tell Mickey to let me go! You can take the money back and I\u2019ll suck and fuck you both! We only bought the champagne; the rest is still there! I\u2019ll pay the difference; I promise \u2013 OUCH!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou get the legs; I\u2019ll get the other end.\u201d Lefty nodded. Together they picked Allison up off her chair.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo\u2026 no\u2026 don\u2019t do this! Mickey, I\u2019ll do anything!

Allison got a good view of Tammi\u2019s naked corpse in the water, the weight belt still in place. She began hyperventilating at the horrifying thought she was about to join her.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMickey, don\u2019t do this! Lefty, I didn\u2019t mean it! You guys are making a big mistake!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cReady?\u201d Lefty nodded in reply. Without any fanfare they calmly hefted her into the pool.<\/p>\n<p>Alison let out a cry before she hit the water with a splash. The iron weight sank straight to the bottom, pulling her down with it. It bottomed out, leaving her head less than a foot from the surface.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/?attachment_id=17968\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-17968\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17968\" src=\"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Payday-2-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Payday-2-1.jpg 640w, https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Payday-2-1-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a>Allison could see Tammi lying in the shallow end.

But they\u2019d been secured much too tightly. She jerked her arms behind her back as she grunted and bubbled.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/?attachment_id=17969\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-17969\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17969\" src=\"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Payday-2-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Payday-2-2.jpg 640w, https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Payday-2-2-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a>She looked up at the surface. Mickey and Lefty were clearly standing there watching her. She could see them right there by the side of the pool.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe they were only trying to scare her. Maybe they were going to set her free. If that was the case, why hadn\u2019t either one of them gotten undressed to dive in after her??<\/p>\n<p>Her lungs burned in her chest. She tried kicking, but her ankles remained secured to the iron weight. She could feel the panic rising within her as her stomach began to ripple, her chest heaving.<\/p>\n<p>She shook her head, her crimson tresses flowing around her face. She cried out toward the surface, losing a burst of bubbles. Panic made her jerk around against her tether.<\/p>\n<p>Her chest heaved ominously. Allison gulped a mouthful of water. An explosion of bubbles burst out of her mouth.<\/p>\n<p>Instantly she started hitching and convulsing. She began swallowing water while inhaling it as well. She hitched as she went into seizures, her convulsions bending her over at the waist.<\/p>\n<p>She could see Tammi watching her. She tried to scream, but nothing came out other than a few bubbles. Then the pain lessened as darkness closed in all around her.<\/p>\n<p>Up at the surface the guys watched the last of the bubbles come up. The surface of the pool became still. It looked like Allison was gently swaying back and forth as her red hair settled all around her head.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGet the cash,\u201d Mickey told Lefty matter-of-factly.<\/p>\n<p>His accomplice nodded as the two men walked around the pool. Lefty picked up the briefcase that had been sealed up, the cash safely secured inside. Then they calmly walked out of the backyard, leaving Tammi and Allison to share the fruits of their ill-advised payday.<\/p>\n<p>2020 (written Jun 2 \u201920 by riwa)<\/p>\n<p>(Pictures found and used for illustration purposes.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two friends get in a catfight in a pool over some money they stole from their employer. <a href=\"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/?p=17954\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,86],"tags":[61,28,35],"class_list":["post-17954","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-drowningstories","category-picturestories-aquafantasies","tag-drowning","tag-nudity","tag-pictures"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17954","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=17954"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17954\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":17970,"href":"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17954\/revisions\/17970"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=17954"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=17954"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=17954"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
