You've heard it before I guess but once again this story could have ended up in several categories. The original idea was aimed at E&V but as it evolved First time seemed more accurate. When it was finished I saw it more as Romance.
This is a work of fiction, though the Family rally really took place for - at least - a few years.
Much nudity but limited sex I would say. With a livid imagination I hope you will think it is sexy anyway.
This is written for the Nude Day competition 2017.

Where I grew up in Sweden there was a thing called 'Family rally' on Sundays in the summers. It was kind of like a quiz walk but by car and with practical tests as well as questions to answer. To involve all family members some tests had to be performed by the kids. I might add that high speed driving was
not
part of the rally...
These were usually arranged by small local sports clubs to earn some money, and the participating families paid a small amount, got to see interesting places, had the chance to win a price and -- perhaps most importantly -- do something together.
This was back in the late sixties and early seventies when TV was evenings only, one channel, black-and-white: I would say we were easier to entertain back then...
I don't know if it was a local thing only or occurred in other places, other countries, but that doesn't matter really. For four or five years as a kid I enjoyed this very much and felt like an important part of the family.
Why we stopped doing this I can't say either. Maybe they stopped arranging them or we got other things to do. Some years later, when I had turned eighteen and had a car of my own I got the chance to participate in another rally though, and it turned out to be a bit different. Back then that particular date -- July 14
th
-- didn't hold any significance but had I known then what I know now this had probably never happened.

It began when I eyed through the local paper one morning. Local papers back then weren't all that exciting but like I said, we didn't expect much either. News about this farm or that, an auction held or other everyday occurrences, the main news from around the world and then there was the ads.
I almost missed it because it was small but there was an ad about a 'Young couples rally' being held that Saturday by an organisation called OFSL. I hadn't heard of either the organization or the rally before, and so I had a closer look with the old 'Family rally' in mind. What the ad said was this:
"OFSL will hold a Young Couples Rally Saturday July 14
th
. Take the chance to get to know each other better! Starting fee 400 of which 375 will be returned after finishing the 12 hour rally. Prices to win. Own vehicle needed. Ages: 18 -- 25."
Then there was the starting location and the time with a two hour window.
400? Gee, that was a lot of money! It was Swedish 'kronor' of course -- not American dollars or British pounds -- but it was in the seventies so it was a considerable amount, like a fourth of my monthly salary. Then again, 375 would be returned after finishing. I wondered about that.
I had a girlfriend since six months back and dated her quite frequently. You may think 'seventies, hippies, free love, use drugs and fuck like rabbits all the time with anyone and anywhere'. Do you?
Not in a Swedish small town like ours I can assure you, and not while living with our parents. Perhaps we were unusually well behaved also, I don't know, but we went dancing, going to the cinema, things like that. We held hands, smiled at each other, kissed lightly once in a while, and I do mean lightly without tongues being involved. That was it.
I thought about the ad until that afternoon. It cost a lot to begin with, but not after the refund. It sounded like something for Annie -- my girlfriend -- and me, an opportunity to be together away from home. And it promised that we would get to know each other better. I decided to ask her to go with me to at least see what it was about. She said yes.
The start was between seven and nine in the morning some thirty miles from town at a small mountain. We were there early, ten minutes to seven, to ask for more information. A table had been set up behind a barrack by the shore of a small lake, and a man and a woman rummaged through the trunk of a car. The four of us were the only ones in sight.
"Excuse me." I said "Are you with the 'Young Couples Rally'?"
"Oh yes." the man said looking up "You want to go?"
"We're thinking about it at least, that's why we're here. The cost is a bit hefty though. Is it hard to finish and get the return? If it is I think we'll find something else to do."
"No no no! Piece of cake! Piece of cake I assure you! Everyone can finish all tasks easily."
"Why the system with refunding then, if everyone will get it?"
"The purpose is to motivate participants to go through with the whole day. We're afraid the young couples may go off on their own before they get to know each other and that would be a pity, for them and us. We will sign an agreement, all four of us, before you start. You drive from one task to the next and after the last one you return here. We estimate that it will take twelve hours with a margin of say two hours either way."
"And if we don't know the answer to a question? Do we get hints or can we find out some way?"
"There are no questions, only tasks to perform." the woman clarified "You will be told what to do by OFSL members and as long as you perform them you can't fail."
I looked at Annie.
"What do you say? Shall we do it? Sounds okay to me if we both agree to finish at all cost."
"Sure, why not? We're here after all so let's get started."
"Good! Good!" the man almost laughed "Just a moment and I'll have the agreement to be signed. One moment only."
When he found the paper he lay it on the table with a pen.
