Please be gentle, this is my first published story. I hope you enjoy it.

I went to Silver Creek Falls just as the fall semester and school started. Going this time of year did mean cooler temperatures but it also meant very few ppl and even fewer children. I had the next five days off work and after this trek through the park I planned to be sore for AT least four of them. However this year had been hotter than most and today was no exception. The temperature had risen to 86 degrees. Glad now for the decision to leave my sweater in my car. I strode through the falls taking the longest trails I knew many of which were not on the posted maps. Armed with a draw string knapsack with energy bars, an apple, nuts, a park map, whistle and compass... and a few ropes of Twizzlers. A few sweets could not be too bad for me.
While I did have a nice slim figure as a kid, once I hit 20 I really had to work at it... work is not fun so I had added a few curves but was still very active. Today I felt sexy though I had to wear walking shoes and my loose fitting pants did nothing for me but my top mmm I had some great tits I had on a low cut tight tank top. With a 36D I had a good hand full and refused to wear a sports bra so they were held nice and high almost but not quite spilling over my shirt. With my long blonde hair high in a ponytail bobbing behind me I felt like any guy would take a second look once he passed me.
About four hours in and cursing at the weather guy for forecasting AT LEAST five degrees cooler I sat down on a rock on a trail I thought I knew but it turns out... I was wrong *sighs* and lost. Looking at my map I should have seen one of the falls at least in the last 30 min on this rabbit trail. But this bunny was not seeing any water anywhere as I mistakenly left my water bottle with my sweater, also a curse worthy point.
Studying my map and compass I did not notice You round the corner. You had been trading woods longer than I had and did not THINK You knew this path, You blazed this path. And here was a bunny studying a map and nibbling an apple. Having not stopped in an hour or two You could spare the time so You stopped to talk.
"Hello miss?"
"OH!! Hehe You startled me" my eyes wide and breathing suddenly quickened I did seem to You a scared little bunny mmm with a soft rump and squeezable breasts. You did not really chase women but they did seem to fall into Your lap and who would turn away a lady looking to sit in a lap? Even at 61 You had been an outdoorsman Your whole life and ate smart. You could hold Your own when it came to survival and loved the quiet of the new trails over the hassle of ppl on the park trails. It was not often that You saw anyone on these paths much less *chuckling* scared bunnies all alone in the woods.
"Ha, sorry miss not at all my intent. This trail is not on the maps miss. Do You need some assistance? You're a few hours from the nearest forestry service trail." You watched my heart sink as my brain sorted my predicament.
No water, hot, getting late, all alone... until this stranger who seems nice enough... I think if I plan to not dehydrate and be found by a rescue team in four days I better take Your help. Tears well in my eyes no matter the fight I put up not to in front of someone I do not know as I find myself at the very bottom of another task I failed at. Only the latest in a lifetime of tried and failed adventures. Glancing at my map one last time before turning back to You just as the flood gates burst.
"Yes p-please, I'm sorry I am so lost. I just wanted to...(this guy does not care, he is going to think I am nuts... fuck it, if he thinks I am nuts than tadaaa one more person to add to the list)...prove to myself I could do something right and failed... again..."
Your heart was tugged by this little one so lost and not just in the woods, so alone and not just on a trail, so in need of direction and not just today. Broken in some way and hurting... no bunny lost, alone and broken should stay that way.
"Aawe little one You'll be just fine. I am here now. You are not lost anymore *smiles warmly* you have a map *tap Your head and I echo Your smile weakly* and you are not alone anymore *squeezes me securely in a side hug* you are with Me!"
"Hehe" i giggle having been set completely at ease by Your good natured and kind behavior. My fear and stress melt away under Your arm of protection and when You lean down to playfully kiss the top of my head I do not pull away but giggle again and look up at You with a smile but You can see it is still softened by the pain of another failed attempt at doing something right.
Can not have a bunny in pain. You think to Yourself and set to work fixing it. "You did not fail little bunny, you merely took a rabbit trail that was longer than expected. This is still your adventure. *Your smile broadens as You hold my shoulders away from You and give me a reason to beam my smile at You for the first time* You just stumbled across a friendly hiker headed the same direction you were."
"THERE it is! I thought a cute bunny like you must have a precious smile to share. What-do-ya know? I was right!!"
A giggle adds to my smile as You look down both directions of the trail.
"Now miss, which way was it you were going?"
Pointing from the direction You came I *sigh* "That way, but I do not think I am even on this map anymore much less a trail on the map."
"No, you'd be right in thinking that. You left the map edge about a mile back. There is however very pretty country up the way You were going and fresh water...
We spoke for a few more min about what supplies we had together and the time available to me and while I was just happy there was a plan to be alive at the end of five days, You grin at having caught a bunny all alone...but You kept the grin and Your thoughts on the matter to Yourself. Only cataloging the smell and feel of my hair as You kissed it before and the way I allowed You to lead me trusting You almost completely and so quickly. It took work for You to keep Your member under control.
Deciding on a longer hike than I had planned I follow Your lead. Every split I held to Your advisement and am pleased to see parts of the forest I never knew. Gasping with excited whispers that leave You chuckling each time I see something as simple as a squirrel not to mention the deer we passed. You thought sure I'd have some sort of heart attack and held me tight whispering Your own satisfaction at seeing the deer in a calm way. Gently stroking my shoulder You had me calm down so I did not scare it off... or die of excitement.
A few hours later near two pm we came to a fork in the path. One took us back to the park the other would mean camping under the stars. Your buried grin rose a little to the surface when I skipped excitedly at the idea of an impromptu camping trip!! While a tiny part of me thought "maybe not a great idea with a stranger" & "What are you going to eat/wear?" I had been ignoring that part of me for years so why listen to it now!?
As You walked and chuckled I skipped, hopped, and asked questions about all the fun things i was seeing and about You and talked about myself. You were happy to answer and easily kept up with me as my stride was VERY inefficient.
"Where does Silver Cree AAA! HEHE!!" Wrapping Your arm around my waist You drag me down a trail i had missed past just a few bushes it opens to a perfectly hidden pond with all sorts of fun! I did not remove Your hand so now it rests comfortably on my hip as You watch my reaction.
