I&#8217;d got over my nervousness enough to sit in contact with him &#8211;  yeah, pretty close to his package, at that &#8211; but it wasn&#8217;t gone  entirely; besides, the last few days had left me pretty well sated. So  things stayed casual; a bit more conversation, a few hours of gaming  with some idle chatter mixed in, a light dinner. After the last, I was  starting to feel a bit ragged from a high-strung day; despite how much  sleep I&#8217;d got in the past few days, more of it was the main thing on my  agenda.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">The thought of going back  upstairs to that big bed made me quail, though. I didn&#8217;t know why. It  seemed like it&#8217;d be a big step, though &#8211; like I&#8217;d be moving in &#8211; if I  were to occupy that bed. And I wasn&#8217;t ready for that.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">When  I asked Sam if I could borrow their spare room for the night, he didn&#8217;t  seem surprised or dismayed. A little wistful, yeah &#8211; just enough to let  me know he&#8217;d have welcomed my company &#8211; but he helped me get settled  without a word of complaint. Gave me a kiss goodnight, too &#8211; strong  enough to make my heart pound, not so much that it felt like he was  going to slide in with me. Or in<em>to<\/em> me. At any rate, one last nuzzle to my ears, one more squeeze to my shoulder, and he left me to it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Another  time, that kiss would&#8217;ve probably left me with a raging hard-on and the  question of what to do with it. This time, though &#8211; well, even I had to  admit that I&#8217;d got an enviable amount of sex in the past few days.  Either that or general exhaustion was enough to keep things from getting  beyond a slight stirring.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><!--more-->It didn&#8217;t keep my  dreams from having an intense erotic tone. Which was a bit odd, because  the subject matter wasn&#8217;t particularly sexy. Maybe a little suggestive,  sure, but&#8230; riding a motorbike down a long road, with snow swirling  all around, while naked, wasn&#8217;t the sort of thing that&#8217;d <em>normally<\/em> leave me feeling so keyed up. I knew the wind should be cold. Especially on my cock. Somehow, though, it felt <em>good.<\/em> Like a caress. The rumble of the engine seemed to slide right up into  me, teasing a few spots that as of some days ago, I hadn&#8217;t even been  consciously aware of.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;Hey, big guy,&#8221; the wind whispered to me, in a voice full of promise.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">No, wait. That was a <em>real<\/em> voice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;Whu?&#8221; With that insightful remark, I opened my eyes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Sarah laughed, cupping a hand against my cheek. &#8220;Sorry. I didn&#8217;t know you&#8217;d actually wake up from that. You seemed <em>really<\/em> into it, there.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Um,  yeah. I was definitely pitching a tent in the sheets, and they were  kind of tangled around me. &#8220;It&#8217;d make more sense if it was something  other than going for a bike ride. Alone,&#8221; I sort-of-complained.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Another laugh. She sat on the bed beside me, chastely clad in slacks and a grey sweater. &#8220;Hey, it&#8217;s <em>that<\/em> sort of hard, and you don&#8217;t want to be alone&#8230; it&#8217;s probably going to  be twenty minutes or so until Sam&#8217;s got breakfast ready.&#8221; She winked  down at me, reaching over to ruffle between my ears.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Wasn&#8217;t  it supposed to be the man I was scared of when contemplating anything  with the woman? Oddly enough, that playful suggestion didn&#8217;t make me <em>nearly<\/em> as anxious coming from her as it might have done from him, and it sure as hell wouldn&#8217;t have been homophobia in play there&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">She  snapped her fingers in front of my face, breaking me out of my reverie.  &#8220;Sorry,&#8221; I laughed. &#8220;My thoughts can go down weird paths sometimes.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;So  I noticed,&#8221; she purred, sliding her hand over the sheets. &#8220;Not that I&#8217;m  complaining.&#8221; Her fingers closed, curling the sheets around my shaft.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">I  shivered, groaned, presumably made some kind of sex face, and so on.  &#8220;Are we going to need to stop for a rubber?&#8221; I managed to ask.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;After  breakfast,&#8221; the skunk replied, grinning and starting to draw the sheets  back. &#8220;Just lie back and enjoy for the moment, tiger.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">I tried. I felt a little silly just lying back and soaking up the attention, but I also felt damn <em>good.<\/em> She had strong hands, hands that were quite familiar with male anatomy,  and she was attentive enough to quickly learn where and how I, in  particular, liked to be touched. Nor was she shy about bending down to  stroke my glans with her tongue, or reaching under my balls and hooking a  few fingers into me. I just clung for dear life to the sheets with one  hand, clutched at the back of her head with another, and surrendered to a  quick climax. It wasn&#8217;t stellar, wasn&#8217;t awe-inspiring, wasn&#8217;t intense  as some of those I&#8217;d had over the past couple of days. But it was <em>nice,<\/em> and all the more so for being relaxed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">And it didn&#8217;t even make a mess, rumpled sheets aside.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">She  lifted her head and licked her lips, grinning down at me. &#8220;Nice,&#8221; she  said, giving my thigh a pat. &#8220;I&#8217;m almost surprised you had that much in  you, considering.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;Believe me,&#8221; I sighed, &#8220;so am I.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">She  lifted her head and sniffed. &#8220;Smells like breakfast will be ready in  not too long. If you want to wash up, it&#8217;ll probably be done by the time  you are.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;Sounds good all around,&#8221; I said with a laugh. She bent down to nuzzle at my cheek, gave it a quick kiss, and slipped out.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">It  was a bit strange, I reflected as I slid into my borrowed robe.  Yesterday I&#8217;d been freaking out all over the place. I&#8217;d have thought  that another sexual overture would leave me nervous as hell. Instead,  though, I just felt&#8230; good. Not the  dance-down-the-street-with-bluebirds sort of good, but nice; pleasantly  relaxed, not worried about anything. That gentle buzz kept me going all  the way through a shower and down into the kitchen; and even as it  faded, it didn&#8217;t swing the other way. I was just too mellow to start  fretting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Sam&#8217;s query if I was feeling  better today had a bit of a teasing note to it, but that was fine; I  just gave him a chipper affirmative and piled away the food. Not that I  had enough on my plate to be very gluttonous; it was breakfast, and  while not as light as a continental breakfast, wasn&#8217;t exactly meant to  be a grand feast either.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Then it was after breakfast.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;Anything planned for the day, Tim?&#8221; Sarah asked over a cup of coffee.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">I&#8217;d  opted for tea, myself, and was still letting it steep for a bit. &#8220;I  don&#8217;t know,&#8221; I admitted. &#8220;I guess I should let my housemates know I  haven&#8217;t been kidnapped or anything. Other than that, though, I guess I  should give Sam&#8217;s contacts a few days to work before I really start  panicking.&#8221; I looked over at her, thinking about what she&#8217;d said about  &#8220;after breakfast&#8221;. &#8220;Distract myself in the meantime, I guess.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">She laughed. &#8220;I suppose you <em>are<\/em> feeling better today, huh?&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;I  guess.&#8221; I shrugged. &#8220;I mean&#8230; if I stop and think about it, I kinda  worry. I don&#8217;t know where this is all going to go, really. But in the  meantime&#8230;&#8221; I trailed off. Words didn&#8217;t really want to come. &#8220;I don&#8217;t  know,&#8221; I sighed, fishing out the teabag.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;Hey, now.&#8221; Sam leaned over to rub behind my ears. &#8220;What happened to the not worrying, mmm?&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;Guess I&#8217;m just too good at fretting.&#8221; I took a deep breath, and a sip of tea. I <em>really<\/em> needed to get myself under control, one way or another. &#8220;This isn&#8217;t how  I&#8217;m used to sex working. It&#8217;s always been this big deal, even the  slightest bit of fondling carrying something of a promise. This is all <em>new<\/em> to me.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">His hand slipped down a little to crowd onto my shoulder and give it a squeeze.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;You&#8217;ve  been taking it like a trooper, God knows,&#8221; Sarah said over the rim of  her cup, breaking a few seconds of silence. &#8220;I guess it&#8217;s easy for us to  forget that you&#8217;re <em>not<\/em> used to it.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;And  for the most part, it&#8217;s been fine,&#8221; I said. &#8220;Though, God, thinking  back, if I&#8217;d known from the start about&#8230; this, well&#8230;&#8221; My brain  seized on one image and hiccuped to a stop.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;Hmmm?&#8221; she prompted gently.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">I  coughed, wet my throat with another swallow of tea, and forced out, &#8220;If  nothing else, I&#8217;d have probably blown Sam in the truck last week.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">That hand tensed on my shoulder, the bigger skunk&#8217;s breath catching. Sarah laughed. &#8220;Oh, God, the look on <em>your<\/em> face, dear&#8230;&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;I wouldn&#8217;t have lasted two minutes,&#8221; Sam husked.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;No wonder you were so randy that night. I thought you were going to paint the ceiling with that one.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">And <em>that<\/em> put images in my head. Rather explicit images of the bigger skunk,  leaning back in his seat &#8211; one of those comfy seats in the living room &#8211;  and arching up from it, erupting in a fierce white torrent that  streaked his dark fur&#8230; I shuddered, biting my lip against a whimper.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Sam took his turn to laugh, a soft, rumbling chuckle, and brushed his fingers over my cheek. &#8220;Mmm, I think <em>that<\/em> fixed him. So to speak.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Sarah  took her cup to the dishwasher, and then sidled over to my chair,  muzzle brushing my ear on the other side from Sam&#8217;s hand. &#8220;I&#8217;m going  upstairs to lie down,&#8221; she whispered into it. &#8220;Whenever you&#8217;re done  here, if you want to come up and join me, that would be&#8230; delightful.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Then, with a brush of her tail against my side, she was gone, and I was left panting in my seat.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">I looked up at Sam, looking back at me with a schooled expression that didn&#8217;t <em>quite<\/em> hide good humour. &#8220;Is this what your daily life is <em>always<\/em> like?&#8221; I asked.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;She&#8217;s not <em>usually<\/em> this amorous,&#8221; he replied, patting my shoulder. &#8220;So if I were you, I&#8217;d drink up.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">That&#8230;  was probably some of the best advice I&#8217;d got in a while. I did the tea a  disservice by gulping it down as fast as I did, but damn it, I had <em>priorities<\/em> to think about.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">I  managed to keep myself from outright scampering up the stairs, forced  myself to take each step one at a time. Sarah was lying on the bed when I  got there, facing away from the door, reading &#8211; no, a pencil scratched  on paper; not <em>just<\/em> reading, then. Anyway, she didn&#8217;t immediately  look up at my approach. She&#8217;d discarded the sweater and slacks, leaving  just a bra and panties underneath, both black; easy to miss at first  glance, her fur being long enough that they didn&#8217;t leave an obvious gap  in her stripes.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">There was a peg on the  inside of the door &#8211; several, actually, one of them unoccupied; I hung  my robe on that one. &#8220;Hey,&#8221; I said as I slid onto the bed. &#8220;Interesting  stuff?&#8221; I grabbed one of the rubbers and tore the pack open; so long as I  was in her company, there wasn&#8217;t any way I was going soft in the  foreseeable future until I came, so I could afford to get it out of the  way early. And that way, I wouldn&#8217;t already be so keyed up that just  putting it on might make me blow.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;Not  that interesting,&#8221; she laughed, closing the paperback and setting it on  the nightstand, leaving the pencil as a bookmark. &#8220;I was hoping I  wouldn&#8217;t have time to finish that puzzle.&#8221; She reached back, cupping a  hand over my ass as I finished with the rubber and slid in behind her.  &#8220;Mmm, I like the way you think there, tiger.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">I  wasn&#8217;t sure if she was referring to me behind her or to my hard-on  against the small of her back. Probably both, in hindsight. &#8220;That&#8217;s me,  eager to please,&#8221; I said with a laugh of my own, bending down to press  my snout against the base of her neck. Lavender, a hint of jasmine, and  above all, <em>herself. <\/em>Delightful. I planted a kiss there, draping my arm over her side and whispering, &#8220;You smell nice.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;So do you,&#8221; she murmured, stroking my fingers. &#8220;And not <em>just<\/em> because you smell horny.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;I&#8217;d be even more puzzled if I thought you were <em>complaining<\/em> about that,&#8221; was my reply, my hand shifting upward, fingertips skirting  a breast. &#8220;Considering how hard you&#8217;ve been working to make it happen.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">She  took my wrist, tugging it upward a little, turning her head to brush  her lips against my fingers. &#8220;Not complaining about it at all,&#8221; she said  against them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">We stopped talking at that  point. I let my hands wander &#8211; she made it so easy to tell when I was  doing the right thing; not that she was vocally approving of everything I  did, no. But I could tell when I&#8217;d done something she didn&#8217;t like, and  she <em>was<\/em> suitably clear &#8211; mostly in body language but sometimes  with a particularly nice noise &#8211; when I had an especially good notion.  It was just as easy to tell when she wanted me to get her bra out of the  way &#8211; my fingers happened to pass by the right area, and she shifted to  make it easier to do. She dealt with the panties herself, tossing them  aside and turning to face me with a broad grin.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Still  without a word spoken, we got a little more adventurous with those  wandering hands &#8211; her as well as me, now, though, maybe knowing I was  already high-strung, she didn&#8217;t do much in the way of outright sexual  touching. <em>I<\/em> did, and she responded quite well to it &#8211; a nuzzle or  lick or caress to her breast, fingers down between her thighs, the  works, and she pushed right into it &#8211; but what she was doing was tracing  my spine or my muscles or bones, following my stripes, that sort of  thing. <em>Very<\/em> nice, but it thankfully wasn&#8217;t getting me any more excited than I already was.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">After  a particularly whimpery bout of squirming and squeezing around my  fingers, she rather abruptly pushed me flat on my back, straddling me,  her breath hot on my jaw. &#8220;Patience is well and good, tiger,&#8221; she  breathed, lips brushing mine. &#8220;But there&#8217;s such a thing as taking it too  far.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;Rubber or no, I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;ll  last a minute,&#8221; I protested by way of explanation. &#8220;I wanted to make  sure I wasn&#8217;t too far ahead.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;And <em>how many<\/em> do you want to work out of me before we&#8217;re even?&#8221; she hissed, gripping  the base of my cock. &#8220;If we&#8217;ve got a minute, better make it a good one.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">As it turned out, my estimate was a bit pessimistic. I don&#8217;t think I lasted <em>long<\/em> after she slid me in, but it was probably a minute or so just of  squirming around together before I managed to come out close enough to  &#8220;on top&#8221; that I could get my fingers and toes all onto the sheets for  purchase. I was about to shift one hand down below to help things along  when I felt one of hers slide between us; with that concern taken care  of, I just held on and hammered away. While she fingered herself with  one hand, the other kept roaming over me, urging me on.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">It was the surge of tension around me that did it. Not that I came at <em>quite<\/em> the same time she did, but by the time she sank back, gasping, from  that climax, I already felt mine rising. She hadn&#8217;t given me any reason  to think I should hold back; thus, I didn&#8217;t &#8211; I drove right in, panting  against the side of her neck, trembling from the tip of my tail up to my  flat-back ears as I filled the other.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Thank  God for an athletic lifestyle. Post-orgasmic lassitude was tugging at  me by the time I pulled out, but given those few moments to steady  myself, I wasn&#8217;t feeling at all physically exhausted or unsteady as I  tugged the condom free.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;My God.&#8221; Sarah laughed, stretching and giving a stroke to my chin. &#8220;You had <em>that<\/em> much to put into it? After the mouthful you gave me half an hour ago?  If you ever get tired of programming, Tim, I think you could have a  career in adult entertainment waiting for you.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">I wrinkled my nose. &#8220;Pass,&#8221; I said, trying to keep a chuckle at bay and mostly succeeding. &#8220;I&#8217;m <em>way<\/em> too fond of shoving in as I come to fit in the porn industry.&#8221; I wadded  up the rubber and tossed it in the trash, then stretched out on the bed  again to enjoy the afterglow; just because I <em>could<\/em> move around without my muscles seizing up didn&#8217;t mean I <em>wanted<\/em> to.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">A while of lazier cuddling followed, then we got dressed &#8211; well, I shrugged into her robe again, but <em>she<\/em> got dressed &#8211; and we made our way downstairs. I don&#8217;t know what I was  expecting from Sam, but at least it wasn&#8217;t hostility; him coming up  behind and hugging both of us together, teasing that he couldn&#8217;t  remember the last time <em>he&#8217;d<\/em> been able to make Sarah be that vocal, wasn&#8217;t as much of a shock to my system as it might have been.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;I&#8217;m  surprised you didn&#8217;t come up and join in,&#8221; Sarah laughed, shifting,  reaching behind herself. &#8220;Seems you&#8217;re in the right mood.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">He let out a heavy sigh. &#8220;I figured I&#8217;d wait my turn,&#8221; he rumbled.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;With her?&#8221; I inquired. &#8220;Or me?&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">He held up one hand and wiggled it from side to side. &#8220;A little from column A, a little from column B.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Despite  the tone of that reunion, the next few hours were actually pretty  normal. I called my housemates and let them know I was okay, just out  for a few days; Max in turn let me know that a pair of skunks had been  looking for me. I assured him that I&#8217;d taken care of it, left  instructions to refer anyone calling for me to my cell, and hung up.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;Would  you two happen to know anything about a pair of skunks at my place  looking for me?&#8221; I asked, all innocence, as I rejoined them in the  living room.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">They exchanged glances; Sam&#8217;s eyebrows went up. &#8220;Uh-oh,&#8221; he rumbled. &#8220;Sounds like we may have some competition.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Sarah laughed, cuffing his shoulder. &#8220;Dork. Called off the search parties, have you, Tim? Got time to chill out, then?&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">That  was the lead-in to a round of gaming. Simple, relaxed gaming. Not that  it was without its adventurous aspects &#8211; namely, they were sitting  together on the couch, and I opted for a seat on Sam&#8217;s denim-clad thigh.  Sure, I got a bit of teasing for it, but it felt too damned <em>nice<\/em> when that arm curled around me for it to matter.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">A couple hours later, we paused for a light lunch. A few hours after <em>that,<\/em> it was time to take a break. After a bit of puttering around the  kitchen while Sam and myself shared some Scotch, Sarah announced that  she was going to grab something to cook dinner with &#8211; I hadn&#8217;t been  paying close enough attention to be sure, but I think she said they were  out of milk or something like that; she pulled on a jacket and left on  foot. Sam slipped into the downstairs bathroom. Feeling a need along  those lines myself, I hustled up the stairs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">It  was while I was taking care of business there that I pondered &#8211; should I  or shouldn&#8217;t I? Not really the nicest time or place to think about that  kind of stuff, sure, but it was a moment of privacy without actually <em>hiding<\/em> from their company.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">And it wasn&#8217;t very difficult to come to the conclusion that yeah, I should.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">I  was scrupulously thorough cleaning up after myself. That done, I  wandered into the bedroom. I knew about where they&#8217;d got the rubbers  from; I did have a bit of a twinge about looking in the drawer without  being invited, but I didn&#8217;t <em>think<\/em> they&#8217;d mind. And, sure enough, a  squeeze bottle came to hand, about two-thirds full. I slipped it into a  pocket, along with a few rubbers &#8211; just in case &#8211; and made my way back  down the stairs, anxious yet at the same time excited.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Sam  had put some music on &#8211; something quiet and classical to fill the  silence. He was lounging on the couch, eyes closed but upright,  listening to it when I walked in. I took a deep breath for courage,  leaning over the back of the couch. &#8220;Hey,&#8221; I whispered over his ears;  they flicked and quivered a little, but aside from tilting his head  slightly upward, he stayed where he was. &#8220;You got a few?&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;Got until supper, sure. Was just wondering what to do with that time,&#8221; he murmured in reply. &#8220;Got suggestions?&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;Kinda,  yeah.&#8221; I fished the bottle out of my pocket, swallowed hard, and let  the robe slide off my shoulders. As I draped it over the back of the  couch, Sam sat up a bit straighter, ears perking.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;I like the way <em>you<\/em> think,&#8221; he said, smiling over at me as I came around to the front of the couch. &#8220;Getting some of your confidence back, huh?&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">I  laughed. A bit nervously, sure, but laughing helped ease my nerves  somewhat. &#8220;I don&#8217;t know if &#8216;back&#8217; is quite the right word,&#8221; I said. &#8220;Or  that I&#8217;m getting all that confident yet. But getting there, anyway.  Making progress.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">His eyes were so intent on  my face, I don&#8217;t think he even saw what was in my hand; if he did,  maybe he didn&#8217;t connect it to what I had in mind. Not even as I kneeled  between his legs, setting the bottle on the next cushion over and  leaning over him. I closed my eyes and nuzzled into the lush fur of his  bare chest, dense enough to drown in if I wasn&#8217;t careful; I let my  breath sigh out as his fingers stroked over my cheek and chin, nuzzling  at his wrist and pushing my snout against his palm; I slid my hands down  to his belt, working the buckle open.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">For  such a big guy, he moved so easily &#8211; arching up a little so I could  reach around and free his tail, staying that way while I tugged his  jeans down; there was already a ridge rising in his slate-grey boxers,  and he let out a heavy, throaty groan as I slid my fingers along it,  feeling it rise further still against them. I got those out of the way  too, and he sank back onto the couch with a sigh, stroking and rubbing  behind my ears as I curled my hands around his swelling pole.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Damn,  there was a lot of it. Sure, I&#8217;d been this close to it before, but I  hadn&#8217;t actually put my hands on it at the time. Doing so now just made  it feel that much more imposing, especially as it rose to its full  length and girth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">For a moment, I wondered if this was a good idea. Not emotionally, just&#8230; <em>physically<\/em>. It was kind of an intimidating prospect.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">But I at least wanted to try.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">He  stirred over me, making an inquisitive noise, when I flipped the top of  the lube bottle open, and he shivered hard when I applied the first  glob of it to his glans; not in any way that suggested cold or  discomfort, or at least the hoarse moan he let out certainly didn&#8217;t. As I  was smearing a generous coating of the stuff over his length, he  recovered enough to cup a hand under my chin, tilting my head upward.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;Tim, are&#8230; are you sure about that? I mean, God, it&#8217;s not that I don&#8217;t want to, but&#8230; but I&#8217;m not sure it&#8217;ll even <em>work.<\/em>&#8220;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;I&#8217;m sure that if I don&#8217;t at least try, I&#8217;ll always be wondering,&#8221; I replied. &#8220;This way, I&#8217;ll at least <em>know.<\/em> Even if we don&#8217;t finish with it.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">His  thumb stroked along my jaw, and he let out a deep, quavery sigh. I knew  that sort of sigh; it was the same kind of sigh I might give breath to  if a beautiful woman drew my hard cock out of the confinement of my  pants, the same kind of sigh I might use when a tongue first touched my  glans. It was a sigh that <em>wanted<\/em>. His words were a bit more  hesitant, though. &#8220;Tim, some guys, plnety of guys, don&#8217;t even get  anything out of being on the receiving end &#8211; &#8220;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;I&#8217;m  not one of them,&#8221; I cut in. I didn&#8217;t really want to go into detail &#8211;  that would feel kind of sleazy, and not fair to Ric &#8211; but I hoped he at  least got the message that I was speaking from experience. Besides, some  guys got that from their girlfriends, so it didn&#8217;t <em>need<\/em> to have been with a guy. &#8220;There&#8217;s a lot I don&#8217;t know, sure, but I do know <em>that<\/em> much.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">He  groaned, sliding his hand down along my neck and giving my shoulder a  squeeze. &#8220;Well&#8230; don&#8217;t be a hero, okay? If it&#8217;s too much, say so before  it gets really bad.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">I didn&#8217;t have anything  to prove, except maybe to myself, and I wasn&#8217;t feeling the same brand  of anxious need I had the day before; I could feel confident in smiling  and nodding, agreeing with that condition. &#8220;If it doesn&#8217;t work out, the  lube doesn&#8217;t need to go to waste, mmm? Can just slap mine up against  it&#8230;&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;A man after my own heart,&#8221; Sam  laughed. &#8220;All right, you win. God knows I&#8217;ve been fantasizing about  trying it. Get on up here, you.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">I clambered  up. For a few moments, we didn&#8217;t go any further than that &#8211; our mouths  met as I straddled him, and that distracted us for a bit, lips working  against each other, tongues darting forth, dancing past one another. My  fingers sank deep into his pelt, sliding over the expanse of his chest,  while his own massive hands slid up and down my sides, combing upward  through the fur, then smoothing it flat.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">As  his hands reached my waist and kept going, our lips parted. I felt a  little anxious shiver go through me, even as one of his hands cupped  under my ass, the other dropping away from me; but I didn&#8217;t pull away. I  let his touch guide me, slightly outward and a little bit down, and  then &#8211;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Yeah, I tensed as his glans wedged in under my tail. How could I not? Whatever image I&#8217;d tried to project to him, this was <em>really<\/em> new to me, and doing it with a man his size was daunting. But I closed  my eyes and took deep breaths and brought my body under control,  relaxing; all the while he just held me still, his own breath warm and  steady over my cheek. I took one last breath, swallowed, and jerked my  chin up and down in a quick nod, letting my weight sink onto his hand,  onto his cock.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">I could feel it stretching  me, and it wasn&#8217;t the most comfortable sensation in the world. But it  was exciting, and the hitch in his breathing was downright intoxicating.  I didn&#8217;t pull away, didn&#8217;t stop; I let him ease me down, let his glans  spread me wide and slip into me. I <em>almost<\/em> called for a pause before it slipped in&#8230; almost.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">But then it <em>was<\/em> in, and he was shivering under me, head pressed back against the back  of the couch, eyes squeezed shut, a moan slipping from his jaws, full of  need to match mine. I held myself there for a few seconds, breathing  hard, trying to get used to the feel of it under my tail; after a few  breaths, when the sense of stretching had ebbed and all I felt was <em>good,<\/em> I let myself down.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">And so he slid into me, one hefty inch at a time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">God.  I&#8217;d never known what I was missing, going without that sort of play. A  taste of it had been exciting, enough to let me know I wanted it; this,  though&#8230; this was <em>intense.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Sure, I  was whimpering and moaning with each breath. Sure, I paused a few times  on the way down, but that was as much to rearrange my legs as it was to  give my body time to adjust the intruder. Other than that, I kept going,  sliding farther and farther onto him. I shivered rather a lot when the  dense fur of his stomach brushed my own needy rod, and for a moment, his  felt bigger than ever; he shuddered under me in turn, the hand that no  longer needed to steady his cock moving up to squeeze my shoulder. But  the moment of tension passed, and I kept sinking down, and then I felt  the heat of his thighs under mine as we settled together.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;Mmmm, God, Tim,&#8221; he breathed over my ears, his hand sliding partway down my back. &#8220;<em>Sarah<\/em> didn&#8217;t get me all the way in, our first time.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;Almost didn&#8217;t think I would, either,&#8221; I admitted. I was shivering, but for the moment, keeping still; that <em>was<\/em> an awfully big hunk of flesh lodged under my tail, and much as part of  me enjoyed having that there, another part was making me quite aware  that I was pushing my limits as it was.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;You&#8217;re  something else, you know?&#8221; He mouthed at my ear gently, and let a sigh  waft over it. &#8220;Sarah better hurry back. She&#8217;ll flip if she misses this,  but&#8230; mmmm, soon as you&#8217;re ready to start moving, doubt <em>I&#8217;ll<\/em> last very long.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;Goes double here,&#8221; I forced out. Even the little bit of movement we <em>were<\/em> doing just by breathing was&#8230; something else. &#8220;Has anyone ever told you your fur feels <em>really<\/em> nice?&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;A  few times. Usually like you&#8217;re doing already,&#8221; he said with a grin,  cupping his hand against my cheek, &#8220;if not quite in the same context.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">And <em>that<\/em> put my imagination to work. &#8220;God. How can you be so&#8230; so <em>calm<\/em> about all this?&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">He planted a kiss behind my ear. &#8220;It&#8217;s not because I don&#8217;t enjoy it, believe me,&#8221; he husked. &#8220;If I <em>wasn&#8217;t<\/em> trying to keep steady, I&#8217;d have blown my wad before you got halfway down.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">I shuddered. Hard. There really aren&#8217;t many stronger ways to say &#8220;you&#8217;re turning me on&#8221; than that. Well, aside from, you know, <em>actually<\/em> coming. Which I was going to do if he kept up talking like that. I  buried my face against his shoulder, but I doubt it muffled the whimpers  I was making with each movement, each breath.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Somewhere in there, we <em>did<\/em> start moving a little more deliberately. Not by much &#8211; I guess he&#8217;s had  plenty of experience with people being stretched to their limits around  him. He leaned back a touch, pulling me up, oh, a yard or so &#8211; well, an  inch, really, but it <em>felt<\/em> a hell of a lot longer when his cock  was actually sliding and stirring around inside me &#8211; and then easing me  back down. All the while his silky fur kept rubbing against the  underside of my cock.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">The sound of the door  opening was a sort of welcome distraction from the feel of his cock. Her  greeting got as far as &#8220;Hey, boys, I &#8211; &#8221; before her ears caught up with  the goings-on in the living room. The door swung shut. There was a  thunk from the direction of the kitchen, a few hurried strides, and then  &#8211; nothing. I could almost <em>hear<\/em> her jaw drop.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Sam  nuzzled at my ears, then lifted his head with a sigh. &#8220;Hey, hon,&#8221; he  rumbled. &#8220;See what I found? I just couldn&#8217;t resist letting him up on the  couch.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;Oh. My. God. Is he actually &#8211; ?&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;Better believe it,&#8221; the big skunk groaned, leaning back.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">I  took as deep a breath as I could muster, twisting around; I couldn&#8217;t  help but grin at her amazed, wide-eyed stare. &#8220;H-hey,&#8221; I managed, and  shuddered. Not that it could fail to do so, with that much meat jammed  in there, but Sam&#8217;s cock was rubbing <em>really<\/em> nicely against my  prostate. &#8220;N-nice timing &#8211; &#8221; My efforts to continue in that vein were  interrupted when Sam&#8217;s hand slid between us and curled around my cock.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Sarah  hustled over and perched on the couch beside us. I was dimly aware of  her shrugging out of her coat, somewhat less so of her hand on my  shoulders, stroking along my spine. Stuffed to the brim, with a strong  hand sliding along my cock, rubbing my glans against the bigger man&#8217;s  stomach &#8211; I gave up on all efforts at meaningful communication at that  point; I just clutched at his fur, mewling with every breath.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">With  so many different kinds of encouragement, I don&#8217;t think I lasted ten  seconds before hitting so hard an orgasm that the world dimmed.  Thrashing in Sam&#8217;s lap meant that his cock stirred that much harder  inside me and sent my climax that much higher. I thought my balls were  going to shrivel up from the torrent I felt rushing out of me. Through  it all, the pair of them just held me, Sam tightly, Sarah&#8217;s hands  wandering more, stroking over my throat as my head rested on her  shoulder &#8211; and I was just lucid enough to notice when the bigger skunk  tensed, groaning long and deep, the liquid heat of his spunk filling in  what scant space was left in me and straining for more.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">All  three of us were panting for the next minute or so &#8211; Sarah less so than  Sam or I, but obviously not unaffected. Certainly she was the first to  act, her hand slipping past my tail, under me &#8211; by the sudden shiver he  made, stroking Sam&#8217;s balls. &#8220;Well. That&#8217;s <em>this <\/em>couch well and truly broken in,&#8221; she laughed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;I&#8217;m afraid I&#8217;ve made rather a mess,&#8221; Sam croaked over my ears.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Still  clutching at his chest, still panting, but at least without each breath  carrying a whimper, I managed to say, &#8220;&#8216;s not like there was much room  in <em>me<\/em> for all that.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;Like you&#8217;re one to talk. Look at the mess <em>you<\/em> made,&#8221; Sarah teased.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;Huh?&#8221; I opened my eyes, followed her gaze, and boggled.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">God. I&#8217;d known that was intense, but I&#8217;d had no idea I&#8217;d actually streaked all the way up to Sam&#8217;s cheek.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Groaning  deeply again, Sam cupped his hands under my ass, urging me upward.  Despite the tight fit, it was with some reluctance that I got my feet  against the cushions and pushed upward. Easier out than in, though &#8211;  especially since his cock was starting to go soft. It was still an  impressive mass against his thigh, though. He tensed and shivered, then  curled an arm around me and let out another heavy moan, as I glided my  fingers along its still-plump length. Pleasantly, the only traces left  on his flesh, aside from the lube, were his, a bit of an off-white glaze  on the black skin and, indeed, over his balls and onto the couch.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;I think you needed that,&#8221; I couldn&#8217;t help but say.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;So did you,&#8221; laughed Sarah, sitting on my other side, sandwiching me between them. &#8220;And that despite being drained <em>twice<\/em> earlier today alone. You sure you haven&#8217;t been moonlighting as a porn star?&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;Yeah,  I&#8217;m sure,&#8221; I laughed, lifting a weary hand to touch her cheek, sighing  as she nuzzled along my wrist. &#8220;You&#8217;re sexier than porn actors, for one  thing.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">She laughed against my palm. &#8220;You  little charmer.&#8221; Then she drew back, though. &#8220;How about you guys get  cleaned up, and I&#8217;ll get dinner started early? You must have worked up  quite an appetite, there!&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">&#8220;Sounds  delightful,&#8221; Sam breathed, giving my shoulders one last squeeze, then  easing away. &#8220;Come on, stud.
