The Babysitter and the Sisterly Trio/ChapterX/Pool Mens

After discussing it amongst themselves, the girls decide they want us to go into the men's changing room with me.

"Can we go into the men's changing room with you?" Riley asks. "Daddy lets us do that when we come here."

"Uh, sure." I reply, ruffling her hair. "As long as you're all comfortable with that." They nod, and I lead the girls to the door, holding it open for them.

There are a lot of guys in there in various states of undress. Evy seems reluctant to enter a room with so many strange men. She looks up at me, and I smile at her in an attempt to soothe her. She smiles back at my shakily, then dashes in after her sisters.

Worriedly, I enter the men's changing room after them. I mean... nobody's gonna complain that they're in here, right? Evy's only 5 years old after all - she definitely needs someone to help her! Riley also said that her dad takes them in with her, so it should be fine... Right?

The men's changing room is quite large, and packed with guys. It's full of rows of benches and personal lockers you can rent. There's also A LOT of dudes just changing out in the open.

I scan the room for an empty spot. It takes a little bit, but eventually I spot one. Tapping the girls on their shoulders, I point to the spot (it's so loud in here I'm not sure they'd hear me even if I yelled), and we all start heading over together.

We meander over towards that empty spot on the bench. Several guys glance our way as we pass, but given that most don't pay us any attention I figure it must be pretty common to bring little girls in with you. Though I swear I notice a few of them flush and quickly turn away a little bit too fast, heh...

Reaching the bench, I instruct the girls to take a seat. A guy sitting a few feet away turns to look at us started when he sees three little girls sit down near him. Noticing how young Evy is when I pick her up and set her down on the bench, he quickly turns back to what he was doing.

"I'll find us a locker to put our stuff in." I tell them. "Go ahead and start taking off your outer clothes. The pool awaits!~"

They giggle and I stand up to look for a free locker. Thankfully there's no shortage of these and I find one very close to where we were seated.

Groping in my pocket, I find some change and slip the coins required into the machine. The lock clicks open and I take the key and use the attached pin to fix it to my swim trunks before opening the locker.

There's plenty of room inside the locker for all our things. I strip my shirt off, then take off my shoes and socks. Once I've got my stuff put in the locker, I turn back, about to and ask the girls to hand me their clothes when I notice the guy from before talking to them.

The guy looks to be about my age, though he's a little taller than me and has a much more muscular build than I do.

"Hello there! My name's Pete!" he says to the girls, his back facing me. "What are your names?"

Since I'm actually kinda curious how they'd respond to a strange man approaching them like this, I pretend to busy with the locker as I watch them out of the corner of my eye. I mean, obviously nothing bad can happen with me standing here in such a crowded place...

"Hi!~" Tera greets Pete cheerfully. "My name's Tera".

"And I'm Riley!" Riley adds. "Oh, and this is our littlest sister, Evy. She's a little shy, though."

"Nice to meet you all!" Pete says. "Is this your first time at the YMCA?"

"Oh, no." Riley says. "Daddy takes us here all the time!~"

"That was your dad??" Pete looks startled.

I shake my head. If I was their father I'd have to have been like 12 when I had them, heh.

Tera giggles. "No, of course not! He's our babysitter, silly!~"

"Ah..." Pete says. "That makes a lot more sense, haha!"

"I'm here with my sister, Naomi, and my very little sister, Emma!" Pete explains to them. He points to a little girl with her head buried in a locker a few feet away. "Though Naomi is close to my age so she's getting ready in the women's changing room, of course."

I surreptitiously take a look at the little girl he pointed out. She looks to be somewhere between Tera and Riley in age, with curly brown hair and a splattering freckles on her sun-tanned skin.

"Well, have fun at in the pool!" Pete says, waving goodbye before scooting back down to his part of the bench.

I wait a moment, then head back over. I pretending like I didn't notice any of that and ask the girls to hand me their clothes. They give me their shoes, socks, shirts, and other articles of clothing. I neatly store them in the locker before closing it.

"Alright!" I shout loudly so they can hear my over all the noise. "Who's ready for the pool!?"

We all head for the door to the pool area together, stepping inside...

Inside the pool...
