Chapter 5

I woke in the morning remembering the most wonderful dream.  I had my
lover in my arms and she was purring.

Purring?  I opened my eyes and realized that we were once again back to
belly and I had my arm around Sarah my hand on her breast.  Her nipple
was erect and she was, in fact, purring.

"Good morning Sarah."  I said lovingly.

"Mmmmm, good morning Brad.  You don't mind if I borrow your hand for a
while do you?"

"I guess I'm not bothering you then?" I asked teasingly.

"Oh YES!  You really are bothering me! and I love it!" Sarah said
purringly.

Sarah shifted to push into me more and felt my raging hard-on poke her
in the butt. She shifted some more and finally reached her hand around
and asked "Hmmm, what's this?  Good grief!  If I knew it was this big
I'm not sure I would have been brave enough to try what we did last
night.  Is it bigger now?" she asked in all seriousness.

"Well, it does seem to get big in the morning when its well rested." I
said jokingly.

"Hmmmm, do you think we dare try it?" Sarah said hungrily.  God this
women is insatiable! I thought happily.

"First, a kiss." I said as I rolled her over and kissed her gently on
the lips.  Sarah responded immediately and opened her lips and let me
know she wanted a passionate kiss.  As I drove my tongue into her mouth
she spread her legs wide causing me to lift up over her leg and lying
between hers.  I wasn't sure if she was ready but as soon as we touched,
my cock, as if seeking its home, slid smoothly and tightly into her.

"Oh God Sarah you feel marvelous.  Please don't tell me this is a
dream."

"Mmmmm, Brad, give me all of that wonderful cock of yours and I will
show you how real this is!"

We made a slow, sweet, exquisite, kind of love.  The kind you can do in
the morning when you're well rested but not ready for any exertion. 
Just a steady, loving, sharing of bodies.  As we reached orgasm we
succumbed to the animal intensity but even this was reserved as we could
see each other's eyes fully now and we savored the depths of our souls.

We fell back alseep after our love making.  When I awoke Sarah was
already up and I heard sounds the camp.  I got up and threw on
yesterday's clothes to see what's going on.  Sarah had the fire going
and looked up as I came out of the tent.

"I was about to call you sleepy head!  Breakfast is almost ready."

"Oh?  What's for breakfast my dear?"

"Trout and bacon silly!  Isn't that what you told me you wanted?"

"You caught some more trout?"

"Sure!  You are right!  This is a great place!"  Sarah held up what was
left of two nice looking brown trout.  They were all cleaned and ready
for cooking.

"Wow!  I was only joking Sarah.  I hope you didn't think I expected you
to do this."

"No, Brad.  I knew you were teasing but I wanted to do something special
for you.  Here, let me pour some coffee for you.  Sit here and relax
while I cook the breakfast."

God!  I know I've gone to heaven!

"Sarah, you are out of this world!  I could very easily get used to
this."  I sat on the log next to Sarah as she handed me my coffee.

Sarah looked at me with an incredibly contented look on her face and she
said "So could I Brad, so could I."

I sat and watched her cook while I enjoyed the coffee and the great
morning.  It was such a pleasure to watch her.  Her motions were so
graceful and she was so beautiful I really felt like I had died and gone
to heaven.

We ate breakfast and it was delicous!  Between the fresh air, fresh
trout, bacon, the divine exhaustion from the night's love making, I felt
absolutely at peace with the world.

Sarah didn't say much during breakfast but mostly smiled and leaned
against me.  When we finished I held her for a while until she finally
spoke.

"Brad, I want to ask you a question but please understand that any
answer is ok with me.  I won't be upset but I just need to know."

Oh God!  Just when I was at peace!

"Ok Sarah, but I don't want to upset you.  I am really happy here with
you."

"I am happy here with you too Brad.  Last night I said there would be no
obligations. I meant that then and still do.  But last night was so much
more than I ever expected, well..., I guess I feel I have to know one
thing."

"Ok Sarah.  What do you want to know?" I asked fearing the worst.

"Um, do you have a girlfriend?" she asked timidly.

"I sure do!" I said with enthusiasm.

Sarah looked stunned and I could see a look of disappointment on her
face.  "I'm sorry Brad, I guess I should have expected that a guy as
nice as you would.  I guess I was hoping - I don't know...  I'm sort of
surprised about one thing though."

"What's that Sarah?"

"Well, you seem like such a wonderful guy, I guess I'm surprised you
were unfaithful to your girlfriend even though I sort of pushed myself
on you." I could see Sarah was really struggling with this.

"But Sarah, I wasn't unfaithful."

"But, you and I made love!  How can you say you weren't unfaithful?"
Sarah pulled away from me and looked straight into my eyes.  I looked
back at her and smiled my most loving smile.  I could almost see Sarah's
brain working as she went from appalled, to quizzical, to slowly, as
realization settled in, a look of hopeful excitement.

"BRAD! 'Who' is your girlfriend?"

"You are silly!" I exclaimed opening my arms. Sarah jumped on top of me
and I fell off the back of log and Sarah smothered me with kisses all
the time shouting "Brad!  You're terrible!  You tore my heart out with
that!  I love you so much!  Don't ever do that to me again!  God I could
kiss you forever!"

We rolled around in the grass for a bit and Sarah finally paused and
said "Are you serious Brad?  Do you really want me for your girlfriend?"

"Sarah, yes, I want you for my girlfriend, my lover, my friend, my
confidant, my partner, and so much more." I said sincerely.  "When I got
to know you and you said you would join me for this camping trip you
already set yourself apart from every girl I've every known but we had
such a great time yesterday - even with our little 'adventure'.  In
fact, when I realized how serious our situation was all I could think of
was that I didn't want to lose you."

"Oh, Brad. You really are from a different time." and Sarah began her
kisses anew.

We hugged each other for a while until I finally said "Say, we had
better clean up these breakfast dishes before the food dries on.  We'll
have a devil of a time cleaning them then."

I put a large pot of water on the fire to heat it for washing the
dishes.  Sarah laughed when I did that and I asked what was funny.

"Well, I was just thinking how nice a bath would be.  I'm feeling pretty
grungy.  Too bad we can't heat up more water for a bath.  I think the
river might be a tad too cold." she said shivering.

"Well, I do have a sun shower.  We can preheat the water and then you
can take a shower after the sun finishes heating the water.  Would that
be ok?  I could use some cleaning too now that you mention it."

"I don't know what a sun shower is.  How does it work?"

"A sun shower is a strong plastic bag that will hold a few gallons of
water.  One side is clear to let the sun shine through and the inside of
the opposite side is black to absorb the sunlight and heat the water. 
You won't have a steaming shower but the water can get quite warm. 
Also, since it's only a couple gallons you have to be careful to only
use a little water at a time.  Fortunately, there is an attached hose
with a valve and a fine nozzle so it is relatively easy to conserve
enough water so two or three people can get completely clean with this. 
We heat the water by putting the filled bag in the sun and then we hang
the bag from a tree or something with the nozzle hanging down.  You use
a little water to get wet, shut off the valve, soap up, and then rinse. 
I have some camp soap that's biodegradeable and fast rinsing."

"Sounds pretty luxurious!  Let's do it."  Sally said enthusiastically.

I got the sun shower and filled it about half way with cold river water
and put it in the sun. "I'll fill the rest with the next batch of water
heated on the fire.  Meanwhile why don't you take a nice relaxing rest
in the hammock while I do the dishes."

"Wow!  Sound's good to me.  I didn't know there was a hammock - where is
it?"

"Well, I haven't set it up yet.  I didn't want you goofing off while you
were supposed to be catching and making breakfast!"

"Oh you!" Sarah came up to me and hugged me.

"Seriously, I didn't get a chance to put it up yesterday with our
'adventure' and the long 'nap' we took.  I'll set it up and then do the
dishes."

I set up the hammock and, after doing the dishes, I put on another pot
of water on the fire.  The air was warming up quickly but it probably
wouldn't be until afternoon where it would be comfortable enough to take
an outdoor shower - even then it would be rushed. At least the hot water
would speed the sun's heating effect.

I went over to where Sarah was slowly swinging on the hammock.  God I
loved the looks of her.  I leaned over to kiss her each time she swung
to my side while I gently pushed her.  When I saw the steam rising from
the pot I had Sarah help me pour the heated water in the bag. 

We decided a hike up a nearby 'mountain' would be a nice break.  It's
actually a pretty good climb as it rises about 1000 feet above the lake
level.  I had Sarah lead the way for some of the trail because I really
enjoyed watching her from behind (or should I say I enjoyed watching her
behind from behind?)

Since it was such a great day we could see quite a ways once we reached
the top.  We sat together and just watched the world around us as we
hugged and kissed.  It was great to be alive!
