Cora looked down at the stuff in their cart, wrinkling up her nose. "I didn't know jerky came in this many flavors." Behind her, Ken laughed as he scanned across the chip selection.

"We're going camping, blondie. Gotta have the basics." He scowled. "Fuck it, I'm just going to get all of them." He grabbed three bags each of chips, pretzels, and tortilla chips.

Tossing them in the cart, he smiled at Cora. "You're still paying, right?" He rolled up one of the arms of his plaid overshirt, and buttoned it in place. Below that, his t-shirt, slacks, and boots were like a uniform for him. Casual and comfortable, just like Ken.

Cora rolled her eyes, and turned towards Madison. She was further down the aisle, looking at a long list. "How did we get stuck on grocery detail? And why did they give us Ken?"

"Hey!" He said, mock wounded. He held a hand to his heart.

Madison looked over her shoulder. She was dressed comfortably, too, in Rune's old Serenity hoodie and baggy cargo shorts. "Don't ask me sweetie. I'm just glad the old lady's letting me go on this trip." She muttered to herself under her breath.

Ken and Cora laughed. "What was that, Madi?" he called down to her.

She sighed, audibly. "If you must know, I had to do cartwheels and handstands to lie my way into this trip." She turned back to them, the list at her side as she walked back in their direction. Her flip flops clopped audibly against the tile floor.

"Sorry." Cora said in response, wincing in sympathy. She knew how much Madi's relationship with her adoptive Mom hurt her, sometimes. "Is it... is she still having trouble with you and Syd?"

The flat look Madison got on her face, the slump of her shoulders, told the tale. Cora reached out and hugged her. Cora was wearing an old pair of sneakers and a flowing floral sundress. To ward away the air conditioned cold of the store, she'd borrowed Amanda's thin brown leather jacket before coming over.

Ken, coughed, rubbing the back of his head. "Uh, Madi. You know why they stuck me with you gals." He said, trying to be funny for her. He knew there was nothing he could do to help her with her mom's homophobia. So... "Just think about what everybody's doing. Vince and Alex and Rune are packing up the tents and supplies. Since Alex is running the pack job and I apparently 'make him crazy' when I try to help, I'm not there."

Madi buried her face into Cora's shoulder. "And uh. Syd and Amanda are packing up the Star Trek stuff. You know those girls and their stellar bodies." He made the joke a little half-heartedly, but it made both women chuckle and turn to face him. Madi was smiling a small smile, but he could see her eyes were a little puffy.

"It's not Star Trek stuff, doofus. It's just telescopes and charts." Cora patted Madi on the back and walked back to the cart to get moving. "What about Heather and Vanessa?"

Madison piped up. "I think Heather had to get her car tuned up before the drive. Vanessa had a family thing, so she won't be meeting us until liftoff." She started off down the aisle again, bringing up the list as something to focus on.

Cora leaned on the cart and looked over at Ken. "You bringing anyone?" His revolving door love life was something no one in the group could keep a handle on.

He turned and grinned at her. "You bet. You'll really like them." He turned away from her to look at the shelf, saying "They're pretty special."

Cora blinked. That was the most earnest thing she'd ever heard Ken say about a date. "Great!" She wanted to sound positive for him. "What's her name?"

Down the aisle, Madison called out. "Hey guys, I found the tomato paste. Bring the cart down, will ya?"

Instead of answering her question, Ken stepped ahead dragging the cart along by the front. Smiling, Cora followed after him.

Rune stretched, cracking his back and getting the kinks out of his legs. "This has to be everything. We're only going to be there for four days. We are not colonizing another planet."

Vince finished wiping the sweat from his brow with a handkerchief, and made a show of putting his glasses back on. He opened his mouth and raised a hand.

"No." Rune shook his head. "Just, no Vince. Save it for the road."

Vince shrugged, and turned back to the now-small pile of cardboard boxes in the parking spot next to their ride. They were in the musty, cave-like parking garage beneath Rune's building, and they were thankfully almost done.

Rune stepped back to examine the scene. Alex was using some next-level Tetris skills to rearrange the back of the minivan they'd borrowed from Cora's family. The small wagon hitched to the back was already full and tarped down.

Scattered across the rest of the garage was his crew, in various stages of preparedness and dress.

Heather was sitting on the hood of her car talking to Madison, Cora, and Vanessa. Heather was kicking her legs, and all four of the girls seemed to be very relaxed.

Ken was pulling back the roof on his car, a ten year old jet-black Camaro, folding it down so they could enjoy the nice weather on the drive. He had devolved into a shirtless vacation bum the minute he'd gotten back from the store with the girls. He was talking animatedly on the phone, a big smile plastered on his face.

Sydney and Amanda were fussing and fidgeting with a number of boxes in Heather's trunk. They'd brought along a number of blankets, and they were doing their level best to make sure nothing moved at all on the drive. They were also very obviously talking about Rune. He'd been doing his best to ignore their glances in his direction. He'd even tried to see if some nanotech hearing could pick up their words, but there was too much noise in the garage to make anything out.

Finally satisfied, Alex and Vince slid the last few boxes into the van and slammed it shut with a satisfying clunk. Alex nodded in Rune's direction. They were set.

"Hey dorks!" he said, projecting his voice into the space. Every head turned, and he had 9 sets of eyes on him. "I think we're ready to go."

He turned to Ken. "She good?" His friend had already gotten off the phone, and popped open the driver's side door.

"Should be outside in less than five minutes." He said, and slid into the seat.

"All right folks, let's get this stuff outside. We can work on seating arrangements then." He made a cattleman's circle in the air with his finger. Heather hopped down off her hood and slid behind the wheel of her beloved Mustang.

Vince and Vanessa already knew they'd been tapped to run herd on the minivan, so they headed up to the van's cockpit. Vanessa was taking the wheel.

With a throaty roar the Camaro started, a sound that was only drowned out by the animal fury of Heather's baby. Any sound of the minivan's engine turning over was totally swallowed by the sound of the muscle cars.

Everybody not driving filed out, Rune making sure the garage door stayed open long enough for everyone to pull out. Up the drive and in his lot, they got the cars lined up. The drivers piled out, and everyone gathered together.

"Vince and Vanessa are together, obviously." He slugged Vince kindly in the shoulder. "We're going to do them a solid this weekend in thanks." Vince looked at him curiously, something he studiously ignored.

"Heather has Madi, Alex, and Syd." He went on. "Ken, you have Cora and... seriously dude, what's her name?"

"Where are you and Manda?" He answered him, grinning. At that, Amanda came over to Rune and slid an arm around his hip. He'd been doing his best not to stare at her all day, she looked so good. She'd traded in thin leather for thick, a hardcore black leather riding jacket with protection around the neck, shoulders, and elbows. Beneath that she wore a white spaghetti strap top with an iconic red anime spaceship soaring across her chest. Her jeans today were joined by kneepads and big stompy boots.

"We're going to outride for you guys. We'll get ahead of you all, and send back any traffic problems and such." He tried to keep the grin off his face as he said it.

Across the circle from him, Syd stuck out her tongue. Grinning, she peered over her glasses. "Oh shut up. You just wanted an excuse to ride your motorcycle with your girl." She was wearing a white men's shirt that wrapped around the waist and a scandalously short tartan schoolgirl's dress. Thigh-high black socks and sneakers completed her outfit.

Rune shrugged expansively. His own outfit was a mirror of Amanda's, though he'd opted for a simple black t-shirt with a small red Horde symbol at the breast. "It's good to be the guy-that-you-guys-make-organize-stuff. Sometimes."

Just as he was about to open his mouth to ask Ken when his date would be arriving, a sleek silver toyota pulled into the lot. It was a quiet, efficient little two door coupe. Ken lifted his hand in greeting and started towards the car. All heads turned to catch a glimpse as the driver's door opened, and out stepped... a very tall, good looking guy maybe two or three years older than them.

Ken grappled the newcomer in a bear hug, and the look on the guy's face as he hugged Ken back could only be described as sublime. Taking each other's hand, the two of them ambled back across the lot towards the group.

Rune, whose eyebrow had barely twitched at the arrival, turned his head a bit to take in the rest of the group. Surprise registered across every face, but everyone was smiling. Sydney in particular had an enormous grin that he physically felt from across the lot.

Ken stopped, looked at the ground, and then up at his friends. "Everybody. This is Jared. Jare, this is..." Ken took a moment to point out each of them and call them by name.

Jared shyly raised his hand in greeting. "Uh, hi everybody. Nice to meet you. Sorry if I don't remember names right away."

There was a long moment of silence. The look of hopeful enthusiasm on Ken's face faded slowly, and Jared looked down at his friend confused.

Then, keening, Sydney rushed across the lot and jumped into Ken's arms. "Oh my god! Sweetie! I am so happy for you!" Her enthusiasm snapped the moment, and everyone rushed the couple to give hugs and welcome Jared to the trip. Confusion continued to play across the tall man's face, but he started grinning in earnest when he realized everyone was happy to see him there.

Rune walked up to Ken, who was hugging Sydney tightly. Syd was crying, he realized, fat tears running down her cheeks. They were talking quietly, and Rune maneuvered so that he was in Ken's line of sight. He too, appeared to be shedding a few tears. Looking up at his friend, he gave Rune a small grin. Rune returned it a thousandfold, giving him a big thumbs up.

After taking a moment to shake Jared's hand and welcome him to the trip, he slid up behind Madison and leaned over her shoulder. "Do you mind if Syd rides with Jared and Ken?" he asked quietly.

She turned and looked at him, her eyes dancing. He realized she'd been looking on fondly as Sydney and Ken talked. "Definitely. I'll ride with her too, if she'll let me."

Rune leaned back, and kissed the top of her head. "Little black-haired angel. I'll tell Cora she's swapping seats."

Cora hugged him when he asked her if she'd be willing to move, and he laughed at how well the trip was starting out.

"Ahem!" He said loudly. "Okay, you sorry sots. The back country's not getting any more beautiful. Let's go."

Hugs and backslaps all around, as the group split up into their cars. Amanda was already leaning on his bike, watching him as he walked towards her. She stood and wrapped her arms around him. "You are so good to us, you know that?" she asked.

"I try." He kissed her on her beautiful mouth, loving the sound of creaking leather as they moved against each other. Reluctantly, he leaned back away from her. "C'mon, if we don't get in front of Ken he'll try to race me all the way there."

She laughed, a pure and beautiful sound. They both unslung helmets from the back of the bike, and slapped them into place. He slid onto the bike and turned over the engine, revving to hear the sound of its powerful engine. Behind him, he felt Amanda mount the bike. She clipped her boots into the passenger hooks and put her arms around his waist. "I'm good!" She said, the mic in her helmet making it sound like she was sitting on his shoulder.

He keyed on his own comms, and said "Mic check. Everyone good?"

"The love boat is ready to roll." Came Ken's droll voice. Behind his words, Rune heard laughing and happy voices.

"Let's get going! My baby needs to stretch her legs." Came Heather's response. Cora's laugh came clearly across the radio.

"I swear to whatever pantheon you believe in, if you guys ditch us on the road I will summon a vengeful spirit to haunt your asses." VInce's threat rolled from the mic.

Vanessa cut in, obviously grabbing the mic from him. "We're good, guys. Don't worry, we know the drill."

"All right! Let'sa go!" Rune was already moving as he said it, gunning the bike's engine and sliding out of his spot. In seconds he'd maneuvered around his friends' cars and was on the pavement. The bike let him slice through Friday afternoon traffic like butter, and in minutes he was on the highway.

"Eve?" He said inside his head. "You ready?"

Her voice sounded from all around him, gathering him up in an audio hug. "No one's going to catch you, my dear boy. Feel free to use full thrust." The last rolled off her tongue with flirtatious gusto.

"What about the shields and such?" He and Eve had been working on a number of projects recently to expand and advance his bag of tricks. The results of brainstorming the two of them had done during their Christmas break six months ago.

"If you get hit, or go down, you guys will be fine. Impact shields and fast-cohesion suspension gel locked and ready." She assured him.

Into his mic, he said "Hang on. I'm in the mood to travel today."

He ducked his head down, goosed the throttle, and the bike sang with power. They shot across the lanes into the far one. And then they were gone.

In weekend traffic, it would take his friends the better part of three hours to make the trek up the coast from San Jose to the Sonoma Valley. With Eve scattering radar and notifying him of any police presence, Rune made the trip in less than two.

He did his level best to help his friends as he went, calling out mile markers where they slid between stopped cars and flew through traffic jams. But after a certain point there was only so much they could do, and eventually they were so far out ahead of the others that the mics stopped working.

Amanda was obviously in a great mood, but like Rune she seemed very content just to enjoy the drive and the speed of the bike. At one point, after they'd done some obscenely fast driving through what felt like a parking lot, he realized he could hear her breath going quickly in his ear.

"Am I going too fast for you?" he asked, concerned. They'd talked about this beforehand, and she'd seemed game with the two of them really hauling ass today.

"Uhh. No. No, you're fine." She said, her voice low and distracted in his ear.

"You... this is turning you on?" He chuckled.

"Oh yeah. My hot boyfriend is taking me away for a long weekend, driving his bike like a speeder on Endor and revving his engine between my thighs." She sighed. "Why would I not be turned on again?"

Rune goosed the throttle a bit and she gasped. "Okay then. I guess it's a good thing we're going to have some time to ourselves when we get up there, huh?"

Amanda moaned softly into his ear. And Rune went faster.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

The last ten miles of the trip were far and away the hardest, and longest. And ironically, Rune thought to himself, it was this part that the cars were going to have a better time of it. From highway roads to rural country roads, he was fine, and fast. But leaving the country roads for backway dirt paths and eventually rock-covered inclines was some rough riding. At a few points the two of them ended up dismounting and walking the bike over the worst parts.

He and Amanda talked it out as they went, thinking ahead to the arrival of their friends. In particular, they were worrying about the trouble Vanessa and Vince would have with the minivan and its trailer. Vanessa had volunteered to do the drive because she had experience working with her family's fleet of vans, but neither of them were sure she'd done offroad driving with them.

Finally, though, they rolled over the threshold of a dirt rut to a clean, well maintained (if narrow) dirt road that went straight through the woods. Other roads split off from it regularly, but Rune kept following it until he came to the third right, and turned. Another twenty minute drive brought them deep, deep into the woods, and finally they reached their destination: a woodland paradise.

It had taken Rune some serious legwork, and not a little bit of computer wizardry on Eve's part, to get this spot. This whole park was a "campground" for the fantastically wealthy of silicon valley, and the wait list for places like this were about as long as the price tag.

But it was worth it. The road and a small dirt square on the south side of the lot served as a parking lot. Spreading out from the lot and the road was an enormous expanse of open grass. On the north and west sides of the lot, thick canopies of trees went for miles in every direction. On the east side... Amanda and Rune dismounted from the bike, just staring. Their campsite was perched at the top of a large hill that ran straight down to a winding river.

Across the river, and in every direction they could see, was unspoiled wilderness. Rune knew that there were 'luxury' campsites like this every few miles in this forest, but wherever they were, they weren't visible from their incredible view.

And, of course, a place like this came with a bunch of perks. A small pre-built 'base camp' was tucked in the northwest corner of the lot. Rune knew there were showers, a building with appliances, and a storeroom full of adventuring gear. Dead center on the eastern side of the lot there was a large area swept clear of grass. There was both a fire pit there, and off to the side an enormous charcoal pile intended for bonfires.

The most noticeable feature, though, was the small river. Obviously manmade, it swept from the western woods due east. Tracing an elaborate S-curve across the lot, it poured into a large circular pool that hugged the top of the hill north of the tent grounds.

For long moments, neither of them spoke. Finally, Amanda reached up to pull her helmet off. Her cheeks were red, but the long and hard work getting up to the site meant she was red from exertion more than from arousal. She dropped the helmet on the back of the bike and ran a hand through her hair and down her braid.

"Who did you have to kill to get this place, dude?" There was muted awe in her voice. "I mean, listen!"

He pulled off his helmet in response to her statement, and listened. All he could hear were the sounds of nature: rushing water, wind in the trees, the occasional animal's call.

"It's a little different from the city, yeah." He said.

"No, I mean. Where are the trucks full of kids? And the drunk weekend warriors and the stoned out moms?" She was grinning broadly.

"You thought I was dragging you guys off to a weekend of mosquitos and listening to Ecuadorian pop from the next campsite, didn't you?" He teased her.

"The thought had crossed my mind." She put her hands on her hips. "Holy shit dude. You are so getting laid."

Rune smiled, and gathered her up in a hug. "Well, in fairness, you did just use my vibrator for three hours."

Amanda punched him in the shoulder. "True but jerky. Oof." She shrugged out of her jacket, throwing it on the back of the bike. "Speaking of three hours. Is there a bathroom over there?" she asked.

"Yup, uh. Hold on." He opened up one of the bike's saddlebags and unpacked a few things, searching. "Aha. Here." He pulled out a small keychain with a trio of keys on it. "That should open up all the doors over there. There's a bunch of instruction stuff, too."

"I'll manage." She smiled, and leaned over to kiss his cheek.

She started across the field, and Rune marveled at how much walking there was going to be to get around their space. This was going to be a great week.

Speaking of which... "Eve?"

With a quiet hum, she appeared beside him. She was wearing a white deep-v-cut t-shirt and pink shorts that matched her hair. "You want to set up the field now?"

"Seems like a good time. Center of the field, right?" She nodded, and they tracked their way out to the middle of the giant lot. Watching to make sure Amanda was out of sight, Rune pulled a thick metal canister out of his pocket. He'd retrieved it from his saddlebag when he went looking for the keys.

He twisted it in the middle, making a satisfying 'click' sound, and a number of indicator lights came on across its surface. From the bottom, a sharp spike appeared with a pronounced 'shick'. Raising his arm high in the air, he drove the canister hard against the ground while putting his full weight into the move.

The spike sliced through the earth, and with a sizzle an energy field sprung up around the long metal tube. Pushing down on the top of the cannister, Rune pushed the thing down until it was about two inches below the line of the grass. Then he punched the large indented button on its top with his gloved hand.

There was a flicker, and the hole and canister disappeared. Grass and dirt now sat atop them, as if nothing had ever happened. At the same time, the energy field that had appeared around the case came twisting and pouring up out of the earth. Humming like a swarm of bees and moving quickly it wrapped around Rune, passing through him and sweeping out of the clearing. Dome-like, it grew up into the sky and quickly became lost in the background of the beautiful blue sky. After a moment, he felt more than heard a buzz that meant it had reached its final size. He knew at this point the field would be all but invisible to the naked eye.

Satisfied, he tapped the "dirt" with his boot. No difference, as far as anyone would be able to tell, from all the other grass and dirt in the area.

"That... worked." He tried not to sound too surprised. "You're a miracle, Eve."

"Don't sell yourself short. It was your idea and design. I just put the parts together." The mods to the bike and the field canister were the first objects to roll out of the nanotech printer they had up and working at the apartment. They were some of the least ambitious ideas they had for its use.

"Okay. Let's run down functions." Rune ambled towards the tent area, looking around at what they'd have to work with.

"Everything seems to be working. Every insect under the dome has already been zapped, and it'll keep anything outside from getting in. The animals under the dome are going to give the camp itself some respect. Ambient temperatures under the field will be several degrees cooler and quite a bit less humid than the rest of the valley this weekend. We're going to simulate it with 'wind' so if you guys go down on the river it won't seem weird when you leave the field."

"Sound and people proofing?" He asked, looking down the hill from the campsite. At the base of the hill, on the river proper, there was a long dock. A rack of kayaks and a small building he knew had river gear sat at its base.

"No one's going to hear out, and you won't hear in. Though if their records for how far away sites are from each other are correct, I don't think that'd be different without the dome." She stretched, her breasts thrust out in front of her. "Oh man it's nice here. And yeah, people proof. Anyone walking the paths that lead through here are going to think it's a good idea to go somewhere else."

He slumped to the ground, sprawled out. Resting and taking in the sights. "You know, now that we're here I wish I'd thought to add water treatment to the effect." He turned to look up at her. "You never know what... what?" She was grinning down at him.

"Mostly I like you being shorter than me. Nice change of pace. And, I did." She rolled her shoulders and dropped to the ground in a full lotus all in one graceful, inhuman move. "Parasites are being killed as they hit the dome's edge, and all the water inside the dome is now pure enough to drink. We can't stop the fish, obviously, but now that we can see the actual layout I'm working on a mod to the field that should direct them around and away from the dock. I'll have it implemented before the others show up, no futzing with the canister required."

He stood. "You are one hot calculator, you know that?" He smiled. "Thank you, Eve."

He turned, leaving her contemplating the river, when he saw movement out of the corner of his eye. Amanda was making her way back from the bathrooms. She was looking all around her, still taking in the sights with a big smile on her face.

"What do you think of our accommodations?" he asked.

"The bathroom has a bidet." She said, an incredulous look on her face. "We're roughing it with a bidet."

"Hah, you should see some of the add-ons these things have." He turned and looked around the edge of the clearing till he found what he was looking for. "See that over there?" He pointed, highlighting a large thick oak beam driven into the ground. There was a large iron ring fixed to its top. "That is the balloon pylon. For when you need to tie off your hot air balloon."

"Hah!" She laughed, turning to face him. The look on his face stopped her. "You are not even slightly joking, are you?" He shook his head.

"We're through the looking glass, Alice." At that moment, Rune realized he was still tense from the ride, and raised his arms in a big stretch. He unslung his jacket and offered Amanda his arm. "May I interest you in a relaxing activity before our compatriots arrive, Ms. Cook?"

He led her over towards the river pool as she chuckled at him. "Alice, huh? Have you been peeking in my closet?"

"Huh?" He asked, cogently.

"I've been helping the girls with Comic-Con costumes. I've been coordinating with... ulp." She cut herself off, a grin playing about her mouth.

"What have you been...?" Rune felt his heart rate go up. "Do I want to know?"

"You really, really do. But you're not today. Oh my god!" They'd stopped at the edge of the 'natural pool', and Amanda could see what it really was. "This is a hot tub. Our campsite has a hot tub."

The tub was perfectly fitted into the stream feature that ran through the lot. Up close, they could see the effort and artistry that had gone into this thing. The actual tub itself, which was huge, had a foam cover over the top, securely strapped in place. Rune could see a padlock down on the edge, securing the top in place. The stream actually went around the tub, running alongside an 'infinity edge' that gave the illusion the tub was a natural pool. Beyond the tub, the stream continued over the edge of the hill and down to the river below.

"You still have the keys?" He asked. She handed them over, mute, trading him for his jacket. He reached down and undid his laces, and stepped out of his boots and socks. He rolled up his jeans, and stepped into the stream. Cold, but not too bad. Leaning down, he undid first one, then a second padlock on the tub lid. He tossed the keys back to Amanda, and then lifted the tub lid. Beneath was the tub itself, empty. It was made out of natural stone, with several benches strategically arranged around the edge.

There was just enough water inside the tub to cover the jets, but it was clear it had lost some to evaporation since last it was used.

"There should be instructions back at the base camp on how to..." Amanda interrupted him.

"Look, there. Underside of the lid." She pointed.

Indeed, a laminated piece of paper was fixed to the underside of the tub lid. Following the instructions, he and Amanda watched magic happen. A lever diverted some of the stream's flow into the tub, filling it all the way to the brim. A few twists and the flick of a switch engaged the tub's 'start up sequence'. In less than twenty minutes, it promised, the water would be filtered and comfortably hot.

Rune put his arm around Amanda's shoulder after he'd clambered up out of the water. "So... what do you want to do while we wait for the others?"

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Twenty-three minutes later, Rune was sitting naked in the hot bubbling water, his penis in Amanda's hand. She stepped up out of the water onto his bench, and tossed her bikini bottoms up onto the rock that held his. She knelt on the bench, pressing her bare breasts along his chest as she settled into his lap. Hissing, she slid herself down onto his throbbing cock.

It had been almost two months since they began dating, and it was like this every single time. Any time their bare skin touched, there were sparks. Kissing was still a minor miracle. And whenever he was inside her, they totally and utterly lost control.

She shuddered, looking into his eyes, and began to pump up and down on his shaft. He leaned his head down, administering tender kisses and sweet licks to her nipples. She arched her back, moaning deep in her throat. His discovery of how... vocal Amanda was had been one of the most intriguing elements of their first encounter, and subsequent dates had not dimmed her enthusiasm during their lovemaking.

She fucked him faster, and faster, her moans slowly turning to words. "Yes... yes... uhh. Yes, so sweet... yes." She urged herself on.

For Rune, just being inside her was a moment of transcendence. But, given the week ahead of him, he felt even less in control than normal. For all he knew, they weren't going to get a chance to do this again until they got out of the woods.

Which is why, with a grunt, he lifted her up straight off his cock. She gasped as the water hit her cunt, and she stood. "What... what's?" Roughly, he spun her around. He grabbed her hips and pulled them back, exposing her cunt. Aiming, he pulled her back down onto him. This time when he slid inside, he did so with all the leverage he could.

"Ah! Fuck! Rune, yes. Yes. Fuck, I love you inside me." He wasn't done. He slid his ass forward on the bench, giving him more leverage. Then he reached down and grabbed her knees, pulling them up and and apart. Gasping, she settled her feet on the bench. Her legs were spread wide, and their connection was exposed to the comparatively cool air.

Bracing himself on the bench, he began to thrust into her. Mercilessly, punishingly, he pounded her cunt with his cock. She arched back into him and groaned loudly, a sound of pure lust. "Yes! Oh god. Yes! Fuck me. Fuck me." He obliged her, his cock a blur as he pounded into her. She reached down and pulled apart her lips with one hand, and roughly worked her clit with the other. She leaned all the way back, all her weight balanced on his shoulder and chest. He turned his head so he was looking into her eyes, which were glazed with pleasure. Her cheeks were bright red from the heat and arousal, and her mouth hung open as he worked inside her.

Chuckling to himself, he nudged her forehead with his chin. She turned towards him, and when she realised how close his face was to hers she closed the gap. She assaulted his mouth, her tongue doing rough violence to his inside their lips. In response he slowed his pace but increased his force, slamming his dick deep inside her on a constant, unflagging rhythm. She screamed inside his mouth, and he realized she was coming for the second time since they'd begun.

She pulled her head back, looking into his face. She licked her lips, and her eyes were just coming down from where they'd rolled up into her head. "Oh Rune, you are... god your cock feels so good fucking my pussy." He felt a buzzing somewhere in his head. He knew where this was going.

"Fuck me, fuck me sweetheart. Yeah, yeah. Yeah! Harder" Her commands were loud, and his hips complied. "Yeah, just like that. Now, now... yes. Fuck my cunt you good boy. Yes. Slide your dick inside, yes. Hard like that. Yes. Yes. Yes. Oh!" Her eyes blazed with lust.

"Oh you good boy You are going to love my surprise." She grinned a cheshire cat smile. He slowed for a moment, confused, and she bucked down against him. "No! Faster!" He complied, and he felt it as if from far away. His orgasm was coming for him. She must have seen it on his face, because she leaned closer to his ear.

Whispering fiercely, she said "Yes. Faster. Faster like that. Yes, you fuck my cunt Rune. You fuck it with that hot dick. Cum for me good boy. Cum inside me. I know how much you like it when you cum inside me. Do it. Cum for me. Cum. Cum!" Her voice was obscene in his ear, a low pitched growl demand that cut through his inhibitions like a knife.

In response, he slammed his back against the rock wall, lifting his arms up to grab her shoulders. He pushed her up off his chest so that she was at a right angle to him, then he truly fucked her, bucking his hips up to meet her cunt as he used her for his pleasure. The water slapped back and forth in the tub as he worked.

She screamed in pleasure, words forgotten, as she came against him once. And then again, as he screamed out his own need and came inside her. Pulsing, he pinned her down on top of his dick. She shuddered and said his name, over and over again, as he ground his penis inside her.

Finally, achingly, his climax receded. Very carefully, he moved her arms back to a more normal pose. She rolled her shoulders experimentally, and carefully moved her arms back and forth.

His voice sounded muddy in his mouth as he said "You okay?"

In answer, she slid her legs off of the bench onto the floor of the tub. She paused, slightly unsteady, but pushed her hips back against him to keep him inside her. Then she turned, achingly slowly. When she was done she was sitting in his lap again, her knees on the bench to either side of his thighs. His cock deep inside her and her eyes on his. He hadn't popped free of her once. Rune was still trying to make the stars in his eyes fade.

She leaned in and pressed her forehead against his. "You are... incredible." she whispered.

"I'm hardly by myself here," he chuckled. "It takes two to have molar-rattling sex."

Amanda grinned. "I don't get too loud, do I?" She looked attractively unapologetic.

"Not at all, dear. But it might make it a little hard to sneak in a quicky this week." He couldn't help himself, he thrust his hips on the word hard. Her eyelids fluttered prettily.

"I have some thoughts about that. We'll see." She looked to the side, sly.

"Hey uh, what was that about a surprise?" She looked at him blankly. "In the middle there, you said something about how much I was going to like your surprise?"

Her face, which had been returning to its normal pale tan color, began to get red again. She didn't answer.

"Is this what you were talking to Sydney about?" He slid a hand up to her wet breast, running circles around her nipple. She closed her eyes, cooing quietly. "I saw you two conspiring."

"Um, yes? You'll find out before the trip is over." She bit her lower lip, trying and failing to keep in a groan. She shifted her hips, grinding against him. "Any signs of life down there? Because I could totally..."

She went on, but Eve's voice sounded in his head. "They just got back into mic range. You said you wanted me to let you know."

He leaned up into her and kissed her, hard. "I just heard something, hottie. I think they're back in mic range." Sighing, she slid off of his dick and onto the bench next to him.

Rune sat up on the bench, reaching out to dry a hand on the towel he had nearby. Then he grabbed his headset mic, which he'd taken out of his helmet. Putting it up to his head, he toggled it on. "Hey guys, can you hear me?"

There was a long pause as they sat there waiting, but a response came back. "Rune? Is that you? Good to hear your voice." Alex had the mic in Heather's car.

"Are you guys out front?" Next to him, Amanda leaned against him, nestling her head against his shoulder.

"Yeah. We've been taking turns with one of us out front and the other riding close cover on the minivan. It's kept our drivers from going nuts."

In the background on the mic, he heard Heather pipe in "Barely! Rune, tell me there are drinks. All the drinks!"

He laughed. "We have a fully stocked fridge. Don't worry."

Ken broke in. "If we have a fridge stocked there, what's all that stuff we're hauling in the van? That was heavy, you know." His mock wounded voice was in full force.

"Dude, there are eleven of us. If we're counting by drinkers, there are more like fourteen." He smiled at his intangible friends.

Vince broke in. "Ken I get. Who else... Sydney duh." He corrected himself.

"And proud of it, baby!" She piped in from behind Ken.

"Who else?" Vince continued.

"You really don't remember much from New Years, do you?" Rune asked him.

"Uhh." Vince sounded like he was trying to decide what to say in front of Vanessa. "I remember Madison shoving me into your bathroom with Sydney? And... I didn't have that much to drink, did I?"

Alex cut in. "No, you didn't. Which is sad for you. Does the word 'bodyshot' ring a bell?"

Vince gasped. "Oh fuck. That wasn't a wonderful dream?"

Over the mic he heard Heather making a slightly embarrassed "ahem" noise. Without asking him, Eve brought up one of the many beautiful pictures she'd taken for him that evening. Heather was straddling Madison, who in turn was sitting in a high backed dining room chair. Both of them had their tops off, and Heather was licking a body shot off of Madi's breasts. Heather's vibrant purple bra made a beautiful contrast to Madison's blue. Her flushed face was thrown back, an enormous grin on her face. In the background of the picture he saw Alex watching with a similarly flushed face, and in a chair to the side he spied Sydney sitting in Amanda's lap.

Amanda's head shifted on his shoulder, and she bit him. Hard. Looking down, he realized she'd been masturbating as he'd been on the mic with the car. She had three fingers inside herself, and he realized she must have been biting her lip to keep from crying out.

She looked up into his eyes, her face one of pure need. He felt his face flush as he said, "Hey guys, let me know when you leave the county road. I'll talk you in the rest of the way." He dropped the mic back on the rocks and turned his full attention to the gorgeous redhead at his side.
