It was a cold Montana morning. I was out with my cousin, Frank. We were out in the middle of nowhere, but there was something different about this nowhere... this was elk country.
I had gotten some leave from the Navy (I'm an Intelligence Specialist 3rd Class, stationed in San Diego, CA), and came elk hunting with him. I had just gotten a new rifle, too. A Benelli R1 semi-automatic in .300 Winchester Magnum caliber, equipped with a 4.5-14x40 Zeiss Scope. Sighted in at 300 yards, and ready to go.
We had started early that day. At 4:30 to be exact. Frank and I walked to our blinds, and turned on our walkie-talkies. I had just gotten comfortable, and ready for a day of looking for a big ass bull, when my cell phone started vibrating.
"God damn it," I thought to myself, "I didn't even think I got service out here in the weeds."
I looked to see who it was, and my girlfriend's name was on the display. My mood instantly did a 180.
"Hey, honey," I said into the receiver.
"Hi, Jonny, how's the hunting going?"
"Great, babe. Why're you calling me so early? I figured you'd still be asleep," and after the night we had last night, it'd be well deserved sleep.
"Well I felt you get up this morning, and I knew I wouldn't be able to go back to sleep..."
"Well, it's what, 6? Go over to my Gran's house, I know they're awake, plus it's a weekend, they don't have to work. I'm sure they'd be thrilled to spend the day with you," I thought maybe that was a bit optimistic, my Gran could be a sour puss, "Plus they'll like you, so go for it."
"Okay, baby, what's the address?" I told her. "Okay, call me when you're coming back in for the night, okay?"
"You got it, honey. Have a good day. Love you."
"Love you, too, Jonny. I'll talk to you later."
"Bye, babe."
"Bye"
My girlfriend Lindsay had come with me on this little excursion, and I'm glad she did. I came in the night before from hunting and I was cold and sore as a son-of-a-bitch. I filled the bathtub in our hotel room with hot water, and got in, and I felt twenty times better as soon as I did. I sat in the tub for about twenty minutes, and the water was starting to cool off, so I washed and as soon as I got out, Lindsay knocked on the door.
"Jon, your phone just rang, it's Frank," she said through the door.
"Tell him I'll call him back in ten minutes," I replied.
"Okay." I heard her talking into my phone, and then shut it.
I came out of the bathroom in just a pair of boxers, and found Lindsay laying on our bed in nothing but a pair of white lace panties and a matching strapless bra. Let me tell ya, that's a sight that I could never get tired of.
I called my cousin back after I put on a wife beater. He wanted to know when I wanted to head out the next morning. I told him as early as possible. Since we hadn't seen anything but cow elk that day, and I wanted a bull more than anything, I was rip-roarin-ready to get back out there and put my rifle to use. I didn't pay $1,300 for the thing just to have it sit around and collect dust. We confirmed a time, and hung up. It was gonna be another early day.
Before we go any further, I should probably describe myself and Lindsay for you readers. I'm 5'11" tall, and I weigh 175lbs, with short brown hair, and grey eyes. I have two tattoos, on of my family crest on my left shoulder, and a Navy one on my right shoulder. Lindsay is 5'6" and weighs about 125lbs, with dyed light red hair (naturally blond), ice blue eyes, 34C, a 24 inch waist, and 34 inch hips. She also has three tattoos. One on her lower back, one on her ankle, and one between her shoulder blades. We both have fairly light skin, and we're both smokers. She's originally from Greenville, South Carolina, and I'm from Kansas City, Missouri. I met her at a car show (we were both checking out the same Chevy truck), and the rest is history. We'd been together for a little shy of a year. She's my Southern Belle that I'd been looking for since I found out that they existed.
Anyway, after I got off the phone with my cousin, I laid down on the bed next to her. It was fairly early, and neither of us had eaten dinner. I was way too wiped out to go get anything, so we called for pizza.
It took about 20 minutes for the delivery guy to arrive, I paid and gave him a pretty good tip, or so I hoped. I've never worked in food service. We ate and watched some comedian making a dumbass of himself on stage, which besides being really stupid and mindless, was pretty damned hilarious. After we ate, I got two beers out of the cooler, and handed her one. We both like different stuff. Miller Lite for me, and Bud Light for her. We sat there on the bed and drank our brewskys and watched the moron on the screen.
After awhile, after I had finished my beer, I looked over to my left at Lindsay in her lacy lingerie, and I started thinking.
I reached over and put my right hand on her left cheek and pulled he towards me. I kissed her real gently at first. Just a real soft kiss. Then I went back in and kissed her a little bit harder, and as I progressed, I started to rub on her smoothly shaved thigh. She must have shaved while I was out in the weeds today, I thought to myself. She had been a little bit prickly the night before.
