"Well John, we certainly have got a hell of nice day for a walk."
I agreed with my good friend Thomas, as I locked the car doors and we started off along the forest path, with my rucksack over my shoulders.
"What's that for?" He asked, pointing to the rucksack enquiringly.
"Just something I've brought to sit on."
He shrugged his shoulders mystified, and we walked on along the grassy woodland path. The ground was patterned with strong sunlight that came down through the trees in great shafts of hot dazzling light. Everywhere was the sound of humming insects, darting in and out of the light and shade, and bird song echoed from all directions.
"That was a very good pub we went to today." Thomas said, smiling, as he thought about the excellent meal we had just consumed. "We must use it again for our weekly meetings."
"Our two man dinning club, meets?" I enquired.
"Got to be the best dinning club in the country." Thomas grinned. " I do enjoy having a good chat over a good meal, and then a walk afterwards. Puts the world to right."
We walked on slowly, and then Thomas asked me, "That girl in the pub who served us..."
"Dot?" I replied.
"Yes, her. Are you and she? ... I mean you seemed very friendly, and she did have a sort of knowing glint in her eye. I thought she was perhaps harboring some sort of dirty secret between the two of you."
"She's a highly respectable married woman, I'll have you know!" I laughed, not sounding very convincing.
"That's never stopped any one from having a nibble on the side before."
"Well, we do have an understanding I suppose." I added thoughtfully.
"What kind of an understanding is that?"
"I fuck her, when ever she's in the mood!"
We both laughed, with Thomas dying to know more from me about the pretty little woman with the red hair and rosy cheeks. Married, but not it appeared, too respectable, when it came to someone giving her a good fucking whenever she was in the mood.
I told him, as we walked on, all about Dot. Not to mention her odd moods, that seemed to revolve more around the phases of the moon, as to when she wanted sex. Then I left the subject of Dot for a moment, and asked Thomas a more pressing question.
"You know how we once thought that the end to a perfect day out for us, would be to have a willing woman to shag?"
"Yes, I do indeed."
"Well, I've taken the liberty of inviting one to meet us today!"
"No?" Thomas gasped, in disbelief. "Really?"
"Yes, I'm afraid so. Look, I don't want to pressure you into anything, but I thought it might be fun?"
"My god, you can say that again. Who is it? Do I know her?"
"I think you might by sight. She's called Watkins, Sheila Watkins." I explained. " Lives only five miles from here. Unfortunately, she's fallen on hard times, and so to help her out a bit with the living expenses, I slip her a few quid each time I slip my leg over her and give a good seeing to."
"A whore!" Thomas blurted out in amazement. "A slut and a strumpet! A horny hooker!"
"Well no, not a real whore. I think I can safely say that I'm the only one actually paying her for her pleasures. It is kind of exciting; handing her over the money and then letting her be my very own paid up prostitute. I like the way she prostitutes herself for me. It turns me on."
Thomas chuckled, quite bemused, as I went on.
"She's an artist, and a very good one at that. Paints animal portraits mostly, and is well known. However, it's not a regular income, hence the need to help her out so to speak."
"And dose she know that there'll be two of us today?" Thomas wanted to know.
"Oh yes, I told her how we go out or lunch once a week, and have often talked about having a nice woman to meet up with. One that would let us strip her bare in the bushes, and take turns at fucking her."
"I see Edouard Manet's ' Le Dejeuner sur l'herbe' flash through my mind." Thomas said with gusto, waving his arms through the air, and twirling around like an excited schoolboy. " Naked girls in a forest, heavenly harlots, waiting to for their just desserts."
