“I usually am, dear. That’s why you should listen to me when I tell you to spend more time with Max. I firmly believe he’s the cure to what ails you.”
Max
“Is this boring for you?” Eve asked.
“Nope.” She glanced up at me, her brow raised. “It’s not.”
Even though that’s the truth, the trail I originally planned on taking her to today was a little more challenging. Unfortunately, it’s closed. Even though she seems to be in decent shape, Eve doesn’t have proper hiking boots so I decided to take her somewhere easier. So here we are walking the Soapstone Lake Trail.
Since we got a later start than planned, I suggested having our picnic on the way in. When the trail opened onto the meadow, we stopped and set out the blanket I’d brought and settled onto it, our brown-bag lunches spread out between us. Eve picked up her sandwich and took a bite then looked around as she chewed.
“It’s so peaceful here.”
“I agree. The other trail I’d planned to take you on had more impressive views, but there’s just something about this spot.”
“Do you come here often?”
“Generally speaking, I don’t hike as much as I used to.”
“Why not?”
“My friends and I used to hike all the time, but they’re all married now so…” I trailed off and ended the sentence with a shrug. “What about you? Do you hike often?”
“There’s a scenic vista near Scranton called Top of the World and my friends and I hike up there once or twice a year.”
“What do you do to keep in such great shape?”
Her eyes widened then the corner of her mouth kicked up in a small smile.
“I uh, I do pole dance fitness.”
“Pole dance fitness?” She nodded. “Not what I was expecting. How did you start doing that?”
“A friend of mine started taking classes after attending a bachelorette party at the studio. She kept bugging me to go with her, but I insisted I was too busy. Around the time I got divorced, I agreed to take a class. I swear, it was the hardest thing I’d ever done.” She smiled. “And I couldn’t wait to go back.”
Her whole face lit up and I couldn’t resist leaning in for a kiss. I don’t know why I thought I could stop at a simple peck. Like the other night on the beach, things went from a spark to an explosion as soon as our lips touched.
I nibbled on her luscious bottom lip and she one-upped me by licking at my top lip, fanning the flames. Our mouths opened, our tongues teasing and tasting, giving and taking. I pulled her tight against my chest, savoring every dip and curve of her amazing body.
Eve threaded her fingers through my hair, pulling me closer. She twirled her tongue around mine, drawing it further into her mouth, then lightly sucked. I groaned as my cock jumped, testing the strength of my zipper.
I twisted, lowering Eve to the blanket, our mouths never losing contact. My erection brushed against her hip and I cupped her ass, holding her in place as I pulsed against her. She groaned against my mouth and wrapped her leg around mine, pulling me even closer.
Eve’s hands roamed down my back and squeezed my ass before reversing direction and slipping under my shirt. Goosebumps trailed in the wake of her fingertips as I continued feasting on her mouth.
I don’t know how long it went on or what would have happened right there in the meadow if the distinct sound of footsteps didn’t break through our sensual fog. I ended the kiss and cocked my head to the side as I listened, my eyes not leaving hers.
The steps moved closer and voices became clear. I squeezed Eve’s waist before kneeling and holding out my hand to help her up. She scooted toward the other side of the blanket, her gaze still on mine. When I licked my lips, it dropped to my mouth. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath in through my nose, then let it out slowly. When I opened them again, Eve was watching the people walking a few feet away.
“Ready to start moving again?”
Thankfully she nodded. I don’t trust myself to keep my hands off her if we don’t. We collected our trash then stood and folded the blanket. I stashed both in my backpack then looped the straps over my shoulders.
More people are on the trail than when we walked in, a few of them with dogs. Eve stopped to say hello to all of them…the dogs, that is.
“Do you have a dog?” I asked when we started walking again.
“No.” She shook her head. “I had one growing up, but my ex-husband was allergic.”
