"Yeah, that's why I like it out here, no-one seems to really know about this spot, I only stumbled across it by accident once" Kyy continued as the car rumbled and bounced down the stony track, rocking the pair from side to side as they went over bumps and stones. Eventually the track, if it could be even called that by this point as it had become more grassy and less well worn, opened out into a dead-end clearing. There were signs that other vehicles had been there, but not recently given how the grass had sprung back up in the tyre ruts. "Just here will do....not like we can go any further!" the cat chuckled as his dolphin acquaintance swung the car around and parked up, facing back up the way they'd come, but out of the way in case of any other vehicles coming down to park or turn.
Zoop killed the engine as Kyy opened his door, and the sound of aircon and stereo was replaced with birdsong and the brush of the leaves in the trees surrounding the clearing moving in the wind. The cheetah stretched as he got out of the car, flexing his bare paws in the grass and sighing happily as he took in a deep breath. "Get a load of that, proper air, no city shit!". Zoop got out, his feet covered in socks and hiking boots, Kyy having warned him that the path could be a bit rocky in places. The ceteacean took a good lungful of the fresh air and smiled, nodding at the feline ".....daaaaamn, I've missed this..." he said, walking to the rear of the car and opening the trunk, both males grabbing a rucksack each. "Sure you don't need those?...." Zoop asked, indicating a pair of flipflops that Kyy left in the trunk where they'd been beneath his pack. "Naaaah, they were just in case we had to stop at a store with those stupid no shoes, no service thing..." the cat replied.
"Those things still exist?" the dolphin asked as he locked the car, Kyy leading the way towards an easily missable path leading out into the trees. "Yeah, run across a couple of them out in the sticks before, heck only knows why.... thankfully they don't tend to do the whole "no shirt" thing as well though." Kyy smirked, Zoop raising a brow as he followed the cheetah through the thinning trees and out onto a trail running through a meadow. The cat purred as he walked, his paws brushing through the grass, the ground dusty underfoot, but not too stony, his pads tough enough for most loose stones anyway. "I smell a story there..." Zoop probed, chuckling "....I know you and your propensity for losing clothes too easily far too well"
Kyy laughed out loud "Aww, Coach, can't a lad have some secrets at least?" he retorted lightheartedly, flicking his tail at the dolphin "I mean, you can probably figure that one out yourself." Zoop just laughed, he could well imagine the cheetah browsing a country store minus his shirt....if not more, the older male's eyes drawn to the cat's swishing tail and swaying hips as he imagined them without the shorts that the cheetah was wearing. "Yeah, I probably can...." he said, with just a minor adjustment needed to how his own shorts were riding up, the swimsuit underneath feeling just a touch smaller....
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
They'd probably been walking for a half hour or so, the meadow giving way to hills with a small river running between them, when Kyy stopped, slipping his rucksack off to get a bottle of water out. The sun was out with little cloud cover, and the day was warm but dry, very little humidity. He took a drink, Zoop doing likewise, grateful for the brief stop. He wasn't completely used to the boots yet, but had smartly broken them in for several days beforehand. The cheetah seemed much more comfortable with the hike, even in bare paws, if anything he seemed to have more of a spring in his step than usual. Doing his rucksack back up, Zoop looked up to see the cheetah pulling his shirt off over his head, tucking it into an outer pocket of his bag. The younger male was lithe and lean, as per most of his species, but didn't make a show of himself, the disrobing more for comfort in the heat. "Well, I didn't expect it to take you this long!......" Zoop said with a soft clicking laugh, Kyy looking round at his swim coach as he spoke "....I'd figured the shirt would stay on for maybe five minutes or so.."
"Hah, yeah....it usually comes off sooner, but I didn't want to go getting you too excited too close to the road...." the cheetah smirked, Zoop about to ask what he meant when the cat unbuckled his shorts, letting them drop around his ankles, stepping out of one leg and using the paw of the other to hook them up into his hand. He rolled them up and tucked them into another pocket of his bag, which returned to his shoulders. Zoop couldn't help but stare slack-jawed, he knew that the cat hiked shirtless and barepawed, but... "Y...you didn't tell me that you weren't going to wear a swimsuit!" he spluttered, the dolphin knowing that they were heading for a swimming spot, but the cheetah had mischevously told him to wear speedos, the same cheetah that now stood buck naked save for a rucksack and a grin.
"Well, if I'd done that, it'd have ruined the surprise!" Kyy laughed, not at all embarrassed. He'd been naked around his coach many a time before, so it wasn't like Zoop hadn't seen everything the cheetah had before. "Well..... Two can play at that game!" the dolphin said in mock annoyance, tugging his own shirt off followed by his shorts and then the speedos underneath, stuffing them haphazardly into his bag, standing as naked as the cat was save for the socks and hiking boots. Kyy glanced down and grinned "I'll let you keep those, the trail *is* a bit rough on the feet if you've not got toughened pads..." He lifted a leg and wriggled his toes, showing off his dusty pawpads, not a scratch on them even after walking bare so long.
The two laughed and carried on walking, the sun warm on their bare bodies as they talked of days past, Kyy's years on the school swim team, and then college and now university where he was now, taking a chance in his summer break to catch up with his old swim coach, Zoop glad to have had the time to meet up with the lad, one of his favourite pupils for many reasons. A line of trees came into sight as they crested a hill, and the cheetah led the way down towards them, glistening ripples of sunlight flashing through the branches giving away they body of water beyond them, the pair leaving the treeline and stepping down onto a sandy shore, a small lake laid out before them, the water crystal clear. Zoop whistled appreciatively at the sight "Wow....this is totally worth the walk!", Kyy nodding as he slipped his pack from his shoulders. "Oh, Coach? There's only one downside to those hiking boots of yours.....". Zoop set his own pack down, looking up at the cat as he grabbed another drink of water "Oh? What's that?". The cheetah grinned wide "....last one into the water's a rotten egg!". Poking his tongue out playfully, he turned and jogged to the water's edge, not slowing as his paws hit the cool water, wading in and then diving. Zoop only managed a "WHY YOU...." before he started struggling to get the boots off, half running to the shoreline in hiking socks as he hopped, pulling them off one at a time and throwing them back over his shoulder, but by then the cat was coming up from his dive, laughing. Zoop's wide, flippered feet hit the water with a smack, and he was soon diving head-first into the cool liquid, easily making up the distance between him and the cat, his aquatic form making him a much stronger swimmer.
"Oh n...!" was all the cat managed before Zoop was upon him, dunking the cheetah with a chuckle, the cat swift in the water but unable to outpace the dolphin. He came up spluttering, shaking the water from his eyes as Zoop laughed, the feline treading water and splashing towards the cetacean. Several minutes of horseplay later, they ended up winded from their efforts, floating in the water next to each other, giggling at how silly it would seem to an outside observer of the two males playing in the water like children. "God... I remember that time we almost got caught skinnydipping at the school pool like this...." Kyy mused, Zoop nodding and clicking softly. "Yes, it was a good thing we'd left speedos by the side of the pool, you always did seem remarkably good at getting in and out of those under the water...." the dolphin answered with a wry grin. Kyy blushed, memories of many times spent naked in the pool with his coach making him need to float legs down for a while treading water, thankful for the cool water. "We should head back to shore and grab lunch..." Zoop suggested "...I'm starting to get peckish for something."
Kyy nodded and the pair swam back to shore, wading once their feet could touch the sandy bottom. The water was just about ankle-deep when Zoop trod on a loose, round rock, the stone rolling beneath his foot and throwing him off balance. With a yelp, he reached out to steady himself, but the only thing within grabbing distance was the cheetah, who was mid-step himself. The surprised pair went over in an undignified manner, which was fortunate as there was no-one around to see them. Zoop ended up on his back, laughing at himself, with Kyy sprawled ontop of him, the pair chortling at the situation. "Oh...oh dear...." Zoop laughed ".....well, it's not like we haven't been in this position before...." he said, grinning up at the cheetah, who could only blush again, this time no cold water to stop the reaction caused by the memories of past times where he'd been laid ontop of the larger male. "Mmmhmmm....It's been a while though, hasn't it?" the cat said, leaning down to nuzzle at Zoop's chest, hoping that the older man didn't notice the swelling of his sheath. Zoop's widening smile told him that his hopes were unfounded, the dolphin unable to miss the growing pressure against his belly.
"It has.... but I wonder if we remember what to do about it...." Zoop said quietly as Kyy chirped in surprised, something warm and slick pushing up between his cheeks, the dolphin clicking happily as Kyy nuzzled beneath his old Coach's chin, purring contently and shifting position into one they knew well.
"Let's find out....."
