Edwin heard a familiar voice, he had been over to his best friend's house enough times to recognize the sound of his father's voice. Sure enough, when he looked over to the front counter there was Mr. and Mrs. Wilson standing and being checked in. A quick scan and he found Mark sitting in one of the lounge areas poking away on his cell phone.
Edwin pulled out his own cell and texted his best friend. 'Didn't know you were going to spend time at the transformation resort.'
Mark blinked as the message came through. 'It was a surprise trip, thought you were on vacation, too?'
'Same place, I see you.'
Mark looked up and started scanning the lobby. His eyes did linger on Edwin for a second but then kept moving on. 'Where?'
'Blue shirt, sunglasses.' Edwin grinned and waved as Mark's eyes snapped back to him, going wide.
'Holy shit dude!'
'Age wing.'
'Parents want to stay in the animal wing, make it a family friendly thing.' Mark motioned at his parents and shrugged.
'Tell them I'm here, my room is big enough for two, maybe they'll let you stay with me. Tell the front desk to call my cell and I'll okay it.'
Mark got up and walked over to his parents, there was a bit of conversation between them, some more with the front desk. Mark was really pouring it on, though his parents seemed skeptical, eventually there was a nod and the clerk picked up the phone. Edwin's phone rang.
"Mr. Dias, this is the front desk. We have a Mark Wilson here saying he knows you and you offered to let him share your room?"
"That's right, go ahead and add him to my suite and give him a key."
"We'll do so, thank you."
As soon as he hung up with the desk he sent a quick message to Mark that he'd meet him back in the room and took off in that direction. He was only back in his room for five minutes where there was a knock on the door. Edwin was heading over to open it when it swung open, Mark coming in with his luggage rolling behind him. "Well, that took convincing. I had to get my parents to think it'd be more romantic with me out of their hair, though I think they're going to want a dinner or two with both of us there and.. holy shit dude, you're even more stacked up close. Talk about a glow up.."
Edwin laughed as he motioned to the second bed so Mark could claim it. "I know, it was just a change in my age.. I guess I got lucky."
"Lucky my ass.. If I was gay.." Mark snorted and dropped down on the bed. "Freedom! You don't know how good it is to see you, well, kinda you. I was thinking this week was going to suck. Age wing sounds so much better than spending an evening as a horse running on the beach. Can we get into the bars aged up?"
"Dunno, haven't tried yet, just got here yesterday." Edwin said as he took a seat, watching his friend. "Don't see why not."
"Fuck, we're trying tonight, dude. And is there really a nude beach?" Edwin nodded and Mark beamed. "Oh man.. this is going to be so much better than doing stupid kid stuff. So how does this work?"
Edwin pointed at the tablet. "Just pick the change you want on that and hold on."
Mark was out of his seat in a flash, grabbing the control tablet. "How old are you now anyway?"
"Thirty." Edwin admitted with a shrug. "Dawn picked."
"Dawn's here?" Mark said looking up. "Don't tell me she's some bombshell, too?"
"Nah, she's in the animal wing." Edwin shook his head. "Though she has a key, so she might just pop in."
Mark snorted and went back to the tablet. "Let's see.. thirty doesn't seem like a bad choice.. but maybe.."
