Walking at Leisure.
Chapter 1 The First Walk
It had been a long 18 months. We both needed a break. To satisfy that need we booked a week in a wood lodge on the outskirts of Thornton Dale. There were another dozen lodges on the site. We chose this particular place because it was quiet, amongst stunning North Yorkshire Moors' scenery, and part of Dalby Forest. We were going to walk, rest, dine and drink to our hearts' content.
On the first day after arrival we relaxed and did absolutely nothing beyond feeding ourselves. So on the second day we planned a walk along forest trails. To quote the song it was a beautiful sky and a wonderful day when we emerged from our lodge. Packing the car we were waived at by a pair of pretty young things outside of their lodge a couple of a hundred yards away. Politely we waived back and hurriedly finished our preparations and drove to a spot identified on the OS map as a likely place to dump the car and start our walk.
After 3 miles it was getting seriously hot. Dalby Forest is densely packed with trees and they seem to make the air on a sunny day, close. To compound it the forest is spread over a series of hills so there many trudges up and down. It was a warm summer Sunday in the month of July. Alice (my beautiful wife) and I were enjoying some quality time in the countryside. The picnic was eaten and we were chatting away whilst enjoying the solitude.
As was common I raised the subject of how sexy Alice looked and praised her lustiness last night during our love making. The conversation became more fruity as we went along. We kissed. I then dared her. We hadn't seen anyone for over an hour, it was hot, it was sunny. I dared her to remove her light blouse and bra. She refused. I persisted. She refused again, calling me a pervert. I dared a third time and this time whilst laughing she agreed.
To me the air was electric. We stood and whilst staring at me she slowly undid the buttons down the blouse front. Being short sleeved, that was all. Just as slowly she eased her arms out and handed the garment to me. I thanked her. Her hands disappeared around her back and after a small movement her bra came loose. Her hands returned to the front and covered both cups. We stood and stared at each other for it seemed ages before she lowered her hands taking the bra with them. Her beautiful breasts emerged. I held my hand out to start walking again and to my surprise Alice put the bra in it. I lowered my rucksack and secured both the blouse and the bra inside.
Alice's face and chest were flushed red and her nipples were engorged and hard. I thanked her, took her by the hand and we set off again. The walk took in extensive periods of shade interspersed with more open aspects that exposed us both to the warmth of the sun. After just one of these I helped Alice liberally apply sun screen to protect her nakedness. And she looked lovely. I admired how with each step both breasts would respond with a small tremor. She was all woman and I love her.
Our plan was to take in a roughly circular walk which meant we had perhaps another 3 and a half miles to reach the car. Still the ground undulated and on one particular rise Alice fell some 10 yards behind me. As I puffed and panted my way to the top I called encouragement back to her. At the top I placed my rucksack on the floor and rested against a tree waiting for Alice to arrive. And then it happened. With hardly a sound the two pretty young things (about 20 years old) from this morning came alongside of me from the other direction and said Hello.
I mumbled my greeting and looked quickly towards Alice, who chose that moment to also draw level. The two young women stared. I stared and Alice looked trapped. Thinking quickly she brought her arms up and covered her naked breasts. That flush reappeared. One of the women spoke, "Hi, my name's Madeleine and this is my friend Kathy. And you look great."
It was Alice's turn to mumble "Thanks."
"Where's your top?" Madeleine asked.
More out of nervousness than anything I said "In my rucksack."
"Cool" said Kathy and Madeleine agreed.
They were then both full of questions. Did we do this often? Why were the clothes in the rucksack? Surely we realised we would be discovered? But also they praised Alice for her boldness. Alice asked for her clothes back and being a gentleman I started to open the rucksack. Madeleine surprised us both when she touched my arm and said "Don't."
Stupidly, I just stared at her. Alice, however, asked with a certain edge to her voice
"Why not?"
"Because you are brave and I bet excited and because we want to join this game" Madeleine replied.
"I don't want to play anymore" Alice said.
Madeleine took the step to reach Alice and held both of Alice's shoulders, looking directly at her.
"Of course you do, you are brave, sexy and fantastic looking and this is a real sexy adventure."
Alice was still flushed and I watched spellbound as Madeleine gently moved her hands and slowly moved Alice's hands from her naked breasts. Again, at least to me, the atmosphere was electric.
"Come on, be brave and let's continue with the walk" Madeleine seemed to breathe in the quietist of whispers. She was still looking directly at Alice and now without me seeing she had taken Alice's hands in her own.
"We've parked our car a couple of yards from yours and we are just as happy to walk back the way we've come, aren't we Kathy?"
"You bet we are" replied Kathy with ill-disguised enthusiasm.
It was at this point I shook myself out of my statue-like state and suggested Alice could have her clothes back if she wanted. I realised this came out all wrong and made it sound really weak and unhelpful. Madeleine batted that away with ease,
"You don't want them now, do you?" And maintained her closeness, her hand holding and her eyes looking intensely into Alice's face.
"Come on let's continue with the walk. We've told you our names so what are yours?"
"Mine's Alice and that's my husband Les"
And whilst she was saying this Madeleine had half turned and started back the way she had come but this time holding Alice's right hand.
With her free hand she silently urged Kathy and me forward. As easy as you like Kathy fell in beside me, even helping me to get the straps straight of my rucksack. She talked easily and whilst I started my response she took a pace behind me and refastened the opening of the rucksack. Madeleine and Alice were perhaps 5 yards or so behind us. I turned to see if all was well and noted that Madeleine had released Alice's hand as they walked in step side by side.
I wanted to find out who Kathy and Madeleine were. Kathy was easy to talk to and told me that they were students from the university at Hull. They were doing research during the vac and so had borrowed Madeleine's father's lodge for the duration. They were botanists. They were in the second year of their studies. Alice and Madeleine had fallen back over 50 yards so Kathy and I stopped to wait.
"Don't you think this is fun?" Kathy asked. "I mean here we are walking in Alicepest nature with a husband and wife and the wife is naked from the waist up. Not only that, but Madeleine has persuaded her to remain so. You've got to admit this is fun."
