THE HIKING WEEKEND
10) Going Native
"OK Cowboy?"
"What do you think?" There were times when Jeremy wasn't as submissive as he probably should have been but Andrew could tell by the expression on his face, as he flexed his abdominals to the best of his ability in his bonds, that he was a bit more than OK.
"In that case, coffee." With some difficulty Andrew lifted his bound partner and carried him like an item of luggage over to where they were sitting the previous night. Jeremy gave his dominant partner plenty of excuses to gag him. "No, breakfast first; you'll just have to wait." Conversations normalised to the mundane as Andrew waited for the coffee to boil while rocking his lover idly with his foot. By now neither person was giving any thought as to being discovered so didn't even consider the incongruity of two naked men, one of whom was bound, just indulging in desultory conversation.
"Ah, it's ready. Shame we didn't bring a table." Jeremy smelt a rat as Andrew poured only himself a coffee and brought the mug back and set it down on the log beside him as he sat down. "It's so awkward having to turn sideways to pick up my mug." All that nonsense was obviously leading up to something and Andrew stood and rolled his victim onto his side. "Alright, Tex, let's see how good those abs of yours really are. Allez oop!"
Jeremy found himself face up, with his back uncomfortably arched. He was trim rather than muscular but Andrew insisted that he hold the arched position as best he could. He then gave instructions not to spill his coffee as he set his mug on his boy's midriff. Jeremy tried to keep hold of his ankles but he knew he couldn't hold out for long. He was used to these humiliations and, being still naked, signalled his lack or resentment in a prominent fashion. When he dared to turn his head to look at his partner he could see that he was equally happy with what he saw.
Eventually, Jeremy could support the beverage no longer and collapsed in laughter. "Oh, Cowboy, you just spilled my drink."
"I suppose I did. That was a bit naughty really, wasn't it? What are you going to do to me?"
"Ooooh, you'll see. Clean up and breakfast first. Turn over. You're mucky again." Yes, he was but so was Andrew. Jeremy was soon free from his ropes and both lovers ran into the creek. Although both men were in their twenties, it didn't stop them from splashing and wrestling one another like kiddies. However, one doesn't often see young boys converting their wrestling holds into prolonged bouts of tongue-wrestling as often as these two did.
-----00000-----
Eventually both bathers decided that they were clean enough and both retired to the log beside the still reasonable fire, a necessary precaution as the diurnal biting insects replaced those of the night. Both men were soon dry enough, if one doesn't count sweat, to consider clothing themselves, not that that consideration would have mattered in Jeremy's case but, as Andrew pulled a fairly brief pair of white boxers into place, it dawned on the taller man that he couldn't see his black swimming costume anywhere.
"Oh, that thing. Yeah, it was gross. Have a look in the fire; there might be something of it left." Jeremy stood open-mouthed. He really should have known by now.
"What the hell am I going to wear." It was Andrew's turn to lick his lips lasciviously. "Oh no! No! In bed's or at home's alright but I am not going naked all day."
"Naughty, naughty! I'll have to do something about my argumentative possession later for that."
"No, seriously, man, what have you got for me to wear?"
"Nothing. Honest. Take a look." Once more Jeremy stood open mouthed and in a stunned silence. After a seemingly interminable pause, Andrew suggested, "Well, you could always go Native." Now Jeremy was less outraged than intrigued. "Here, catch!"
Jeremy continued to look puzzled but still stood dumb-struck. He'd just missed catching something in red and black. As he stooped to retrieve it, he looked at his lover and his puzzlement turned to incredulous laughter. "Whaaat?"
"Yep, there's two swatches of material there and they've been tied round an entire roll of duct tape. Make yourself a breech cloth." Andrew's smirk spread as Jeremy's shoulders fell and his mouth closed into a twisted smirk of his own. Andrew pulled on his tight denims as Jeremy resigned himself to his fate and measured himself up for his costume.
He could obviously use one piece of fabric fore and another aft but there would certainly be no cross-over between the two. If he taped the rectangular samples to his hips so that they were longer than they were wide, they would hang low enough to keep him respectable as long as Jeremy didn't move. However, the material, although more substantial then a bandanna, was still flimsy enough to be subject to the whims of any breeze which, if, as he supposed, he was to be bound, Jeremy would be completely unable to countermand. "Oh, come on, man, these aren't going to keep my dick covered while we're walking."
"That's a new roll; there's enough tape on that, even for your monster." offered Andrew brightly.
"Hang on, you're suggesting that I put duct tape over my dick?"
"Why not?"
"Christ Man, that's weird enough but it's MY pubes that are going to be coming out in handfuls afterwards." Even now, Jeremy was half laughing through his incredulity.
"You OK, Cowboy?" Jeremy took the message. All he had to do was back out. But did he want to now?
There was a deep sigh. "OK." Andrew pulled on his shirt and sat back to enjoy the entertainment.
11) Texan Tailoring
Jeremy was used to his lover's more "creative" side when it came to devising activities for their mutual entertainment and this wasn't the first time he'd had similar reservations about them but all the while he answered, "You OK, Cowboy?" in the affirmative, he knew it was as much his 'fault' as his smirking partner's.
Having resigned himself to the humiliation, Jeremy set about trying to preserve his privacy as best he could with the duct tape. He had been so taken aback by the initial suggestion that he really didn't stop to think that there were less potentially painful solutions to his predicament. He hitched up his bits and fumbled to attach a strip of tape lower down. The initial strip of black tape did little to contain Jeremy's equipment, especially as the activity left him coming back to life again somewhat, but two more strips attached on either side and one wrapped around his hips to hold the tops in place left the olive skinned boy looking as though he was wearing a thong. Andrew approved.
Taping one of the red swatches to the front of his body so that it hung down ending well above his knees was relatively easy, relative to the next manoeuvre, that is. "Why don't you leave it like that?"
"Look, Man, bare-assed humiliation is one thing but that's one thing I'd prefer to reserve for when it's just you and me. We might just encounter some other wilderness freaks, especially if you intend to lead me along some of the better tracks. How about giving us a hand?"
"You've got a nice ass, why should I help? Spoils the view."
Jeremy still loved that man. He simply sighed and set about his task. He laid a long strip of tape, sticky side up on the log where Andrew was sitting and pressed the wider of the two scraps of fabric onto it. That was easy enough but now the problems started. With much cursing and three false starts where Jeremy had to replace the tape where it had tangled or adhered to itself, he finally managed to manoeuvre the breechcloth behind him.
He turned his back on his lover and asked him to help him to 'get it straight'. With much "Left a bit, no right. Up a bit, right hand down, etc", which Andrew enjoyed more than a little, Jeremy was left to pull the ends of the tape round his waist so that it pressed against his hips. He almost caressed it into place as his tormentor took a few souvenir photographs. Jeremy wasn't sure whether he'd post them for his on-line admirers to enjoy but he was coming round to the idea.
"That's a good boy but I can't have my native porter looking scruffy, can I?" Andrew took to his feet and picked up the reel of tape. "Hands on your head, Boy." As Jeremy obeyed, Andrew stopped for just a teasing lick and a brief kiss to each of his porter's nipples before setting about his self-appointed task. As he looked down into his lover's eyes, Jeremy wondered whether he would be allowed to apply more tape to his intimate parts before they set off.
By the time Andrew had announced himself satisfied, a neat belt formed from several rounds of duct tape had been added to Jeremy's costume. After he had inspected his sub, he announced, "You know, you were right, that cloth alone wouldn't really hide your dick. If you'd pleated it, it wouldn't have been so tight." Now that it was too late to offer sartorial hints, Andrew continued, "Oh, by the way, I'd have put some tape inside the support but with the sticky sides together. Then your pubes would have been safe. The firm application of Andrew's hand was doing nothing for the security of his partner's improvised underwear.
12) Showing the Necessary Restraint
Jeremy waited with his hands on his head and wondered why he hadn't been ordered to his knees. Andrew explained that, as his slave, he had work to do and it would be easier if he was chained rather than bound with ropes or tape and that he had no intention of making his own job any more difficult.
Jeremy was never sure about chains, he enjoyed the inevitability of inescapability as the metal came into place and he heard the padlocks click but, with the possibility of not being quite so closely confined as was necessary with ropes, he missed the more extreme restrictions. However, he could imagine the pleasure his companion would get from seeing him dressed as he was and chained like an archetypical slave. It quite excited him as well.
One drawback with being put into chains as far as Jeremy was concerned was the fact that the process lacked the prolonged personal contact between himself and his captor that was so often necessary when he was being tied with ropes or bound with tape. Indeed, par for the course was that Andrew would tell his slave what to use and how to apply it and make him get on with chaining himself securely. Andrew got especial pleasure when Jeremy found difficulty doing so to his satisfaction - especially when "correction" proved necessary. It was surprising how often Jeremy needed correction.
Andrew proceeded to point out to his slave what a considerate lover he was to have carried all that heavy stuff for him instead of loading it into the rucksack that Jeremy had been forced to carry. As a submissive, Jeremy didn't look all that convinced as a long chain was produced from Andrew's considerably smaller bag. It was obviously too long for purpose but Jeremy was used to that. A pair of ankle shackles followed along with a rather longer set of handcuffs than Jeremy was expecting. "Sorry, Slave, I know you prefer those heavy antique bar-cuffs but you surely wouldn't have expected me to carry something weighing over 30 pounds and, If I'd made you carry them along with the rest of the gear, you'd probably never had made it this far. Tell me how much you love me."
With an invitation like that, Jeremy was very unlikely to miss an opportunity and immediately said something that was guaranteed to get him gagged. Everyone has their own fetishes: Andrew's was watching his dark-eyed lover struggling against his bonds and Jeremy's was to spend as much time gagged as possible, but I expect you've guessed that already. "I'm sorry, Slave but I can't let that pass." Jeremy was hoping to taste one of his lover's sweaty hiking socks or, if he was really lucky, the underwear that he had worn for the outward hike once more. He was, however somewhat disappointed when he caught sight of what came out of Andrew's bag next. That muzzle was OK, it worked as a gag as long as Andrew fitted one of the larger wedges to it but, for Jeremy, it lacked the sensual pleasure of the softer, more personal mouth stuffing for which he was hoping.
The two lovers locked eyes, one questioning and trying unsuccessfully not to look too disappointed (it would have been bad form for the slave to object) and the other trying to betray nothing in his expression. Jeremy hung his head and opened his mouth; he knew Andrew thought that he looked fantastic in the tan-coloured leather device. "OK Cowboy, because you asked so nicely, I'll compromise. You know I can't have my handsome slave removing his gag while he works so the muzzle stays but I'll see what I can do." Jeremy caught a glimpse of the inside of their relatively new toy as the blond guy dug into the larger pack. The Filipino American's renowned smile would have matched Jack Nicholson's finest.
"You know that I wouldn't want to disappoint my obedient slave so look what I've got for him. I wore them on Friday before you came home. You know how hot it was on Friday? Well, I even went jogging at lunchtime to make sure that they'd be ready for you." By now the duct tape thong had given up on its task more or less completely. Andrew had fitted the muzzle with a thin insert which would leave plenty of unfilled space in the Texan's mouth. He was carefully folding his used, and still ripe, red boxer briefs from yesterday morning ready to, as he put it, improve the efficacy of the gag without spoiling its appearance. They would certainly do that. They might also help to regulate Jeremy's current heavy breathing.
Over the past few weeks, Andrew had become quite handy at adapting what he initially described to Jeremy as 'a little Friday night present for a noisy cowboy' to their purposes and, by the time he had fitted the last small padlock to the device, Jeremy had retreated to his own private place gain. The taste of his lover's sweat (and other residual body fluids) permeated his mouth and displaced all the wilderness smells from his nose. Andrew left him for a couple of minutes, with his hands back in place on his head, during which each deeply drawn intake of breath preceded an equally deep, but effectively muffled exhaling groan. It would give him time to prepare something else he thought he would need.
By the time Andrew returned to his companion, Jeremy was in an almost trance like state with his eyes closed. Andrew knew that he would be and had taken steps to modify the situation. Jeremy's eyes opened suddenly as what was obviously a yelp strangled itself on its way past the fabric and leather encasing his lower face. "All good slave owners need one of these." Andrew had spent the last few minutes while Jeremy was enjoying his underwear feast fashioning a switch from one of the surrounding shrubs. A sharp but not too vicious application of the flexible rod to his flimsily covered backside brought Jeremy immediately from his reverie. "That's better; I'll bet you went cross eyed again just now."
Jeremy exhaled deeply once more and replaced his hands on his head from which he'd jerked them clear in alarm. Andrew didn't need to ask the usual question.
"Alright Boy, that's enough rest time. Go and get that stuff and bring it over here." Andrew had indicated the chains that he'd decanted onto the ground and then returned to the log to make himself comfortable. Jeremy obeyed, took them over to his beloved dom. and awaited his instructions.
