“Clearly they didn’t know what they were missing,” I joked.
“No kidding, if I knew his lodge was this nice I might have had to take him up on his offer,” she said.
“Turns out you didn’t need to,” I said.
Anna laughed, shrugged off her backpack, stepped down into the living room area, and plopped down onto the couch. Then she let out a moan of comfort and spread out like a starfish.
“Comfortable?” I asked as I stripped off my own backpack and tossed the bag of guns next to it.
“Sooo comfortable,” she said. “We just did a twelve hour hike, and my legs are screaming at me.”
“Don’t get too comfortable,” I said with a chuckle. “We need to do a quick check of the house before we settle in for the night.”
“Oh crap,” Anna said as she jumped upright. “I didn’t even think about that.” she pulled out her own pistol. “Should we stick together or split up?”
“Stick with me,” I said. “This isn’t an episode of Scooby Doo, so no reason to take chances.”
“Got it.” She grinned as she returned to me.
Together we made our way through the lodge and checked every room. We started in the kitchen which was full of state-of-the-art appliances and a large gas stove. The countertops were covered in white marble, and four stools sat in front of a breakfast bar that looked into the living room.
“This kitchen is larger than most of the rooms in the house I grew up in,” Anna whispered as we did our sweep.
I nodded and stopped at the deep, two compartment, sink. I tried the handle and water started to pour from the spigot.
“Is that running water?” Anna asked before she went slack jawed.
“Yeah, and it’s getting warm too,” I muttered. “This place must have its own well or water tank somewhere.”
A door at the end of the kitchen opened up into a large, two-car garage. We were surprised to find it dimly lit by a flickering lamp set in one corner.
“Wait, how can that thing be on?” Anna asked. “Am I really seeing that, or is this place fucking with me?”
“The solar panels must still be working,” I said as I scanned the room.
“Wait, are you saying this place actually has power?” Anna gasped.
“Kind of,” I replied with a nod. “The battery that the panels feed into must be at least somewhat shielded, but until we test it, we won’t know what in the house, if anything, didn’t get fried in the blast.”
“This place is amazing,” Anna muttered.
“Well let’s finish making sure no one else is here then we can start playing with appliances,” I said quietly before chuckling. There was a thin layer of dust on everything that made me feel like we were alone, but it wasn’t worth the risk to assume.
The garage held no vehicles but was instead mostly full of ski equipment. Tucked against one wall, in a large metal electrical box, was an array of batteries and the converter used by the solar panels. Everything inside the box seemed to be working.
There was not much else inside the large space so we made our way back into the house, through the kitchen, and down the hallway on the opposite side of the house.
The hallway had three doors, one at the very end, and one on each of the two walls. We went into the right door first and found ourselves in a spacious guest bedroom. A queen sized bed sat made with fine clean bedding, and a quick look in the closet revealed a host of cold weather clothes. There was a lamp sitting on a nightstand right next to the bed and I tried to flip it on once we cleared the room. For a moment there was nothing but then the fluorescent bulb buzzed to life.
“Well I’ll be damned,” I muttered.
“I can’t wait to tell the others about this place,” Anna said before she walked up to the large TV hanging on the wall and tried to click it on. Nothing happened. “Why didn’t the TV work?”
“Well, the TV has a lot more electronics in it than a simple lamp, so the EMP probably fried it,” I explained. “I would guess that not much here is going to work except for the lights.”
“That’s still something,” Anna said.
“Yeah, but come on, let’s finish this quick so we can relax some,” I said as I turned back to the door, stepped into the hall, and moved across to the door on the opposite side. I waited for Anna to move up behind me before I threw the door open and rushed inside.
This room was clearly the master bedroom. A lavish king sized bed sat covered in soft silky blankets, and there was a door open to an attached bathroom. The bed sat facing two large windows that looked out over the snow covered side of the mountain, and it had a fireplace of its own set into one wall. I cleared the main room and checked the closet which was also full of men's clothing, and some more cold weather and skiing gear.
“No one in here,” Anna called out as she checked the bathroom on the other side of the room. “Though there is a huge fucking jacuzzi tub in here. It’s already filled and you could easily fit four or five people.” She looked at me and grinned. “Do you think we can use it while we are here?”
“I don’t see why not,” I said with a shrug. “Stay put, I am gonna check the last door.” She nodded, and I slipped back into the hall. At this point I was almost positive this place was empty, but there was no reason not to finish my sweep, so I approached the last door and pushed it open with my pistol read. A second smaller bathroom sat behind it, and I let out a sigh of relief.
“All clear,” I shouted out as I holstered my pistol.
“Awesome,” my redheaded friend responded from the other room. She stepped into the hallway and stowed her weapon too. “Does that mean we can sit down now?”
“Oh yeah,” I said with a grin before I headed back to the living room, flopped onto the couch, and felt myself sink into the soft leather.
Anna plopped onto the couch next to me and let out a contented sigh.
“This is wonderful,” I said.
“Yeah, I could get used to this,” Anna said as she sank into the plush leather.
“If you want to find a way to get this couch back to campus be my guest,” I said with a grin
“That’s not what I meant,” she said before letting out a laugh. “I bet we will find some really good shit in here.”
“You’re right, but we can worry about that in the morning,” I said. “Tonight let’s eat some food, get some rest, and just enjoy this place.”
“I’m on board with that plan,” Anna said. “Plus, did you see that bed in the master bedroom? It looks more comfortable than anything I have ever slept on. I bet it will feel amazing after we spend an hour in that hot tub.”
“Yeah hot water might be the greatest part of this trip,” I agreed. “It means I can properly clean myself after having to spend time in that disgusting pit of a cabin earlier.”
“Oh yeah, I still feel gross from being in that basement,” Anna said as she leaned in close to look at my cheek. “I bet we can find some simple first aid stuff to clean up those splinters too.”
“That would be appreciated,” I said as I picked at one of slivers stuck in my forearm.
“You know what, you stay put, and I’ll go figure out how to get the water in the tub warm,” Anna said as she pushed herself up off the couch.
“Don’t take too long or I might fall asleep out here,” I joked.
Anna grinned, pulled the pony tail out of her hair, and started to shake out her long red braid. A long mess of red hair blossomed from the braid as each knot came loose.
I raised an eyebrow and leaned forward a little as I watched it all unfurl and fall over her shoulder and flow down her back until it stopped right over her tight ass.
“Wow,” I said.
“Hmmm?” she asked as she turned to look at me.
“Your hair,” I said as I pointed to it.
“Uhhh. Yeah?”
“It’s really pretty,” I said. “I’ve never seen it down.”
“Oh,” she said, and her cheeks turned a bit red.
“Uhhh, I guess I’ll come get you when the jacuzzi is ready. Okay?”
“Sure,” I replied.
I settled back into the couch and watched as Anna spun, bounced away from me, and stopped at the lightswitch by the door. I squinted as she flipped it on and flooded the room with bright light from the four fluorescent lights that sat above my head.
“Awesome,” Anna muttered before she disappeared. “Don’t go anywhere.”
It was strange how unfamiliar the artificial lighting felt to me after all this time. It felt almost strange to be able to see the room around me so well despite the darkness of the world outside the windows only feet away. Despite the harsh white light I started to find myself drifting off to sleep to the sound of silence. I tried to fight the feeling but felt my eyelids grow heavier as the comfort of the place overtook me.
“Wow, you weren’t kidding about falling asleep were you?” Anna whispered in my ear.
I snorted and jolted upright at the sound of her voice, and she shook her head and laughed. “Come on, I have the hot tub ready for us.”
“Sorry, it’s been a long day,” I said as I got to my feet.
“Don’t worry about it, just come enjoy an actual hot bath,” she replied as she beckoned me forward.
I followed her into the master bathroom where a medium sized jacuzzi bubbled and foamed in a welcome manner. The whole room was already filled with steam, and lit by the orange glow of half a dozen candles.
“The lights in here don’t seem to work,” Anna explained as she pointed to the candles. “But I found these in a drawer and figured they would work fine.”
“Well it looks nice,” I said with a small smile. “I smell something though, is that the candles?”
“No,” Anna said as she shook her head. “I found a bath bomb and threw it in.”
“Smells good,” I commented.
Anna grinned and nodded in agreement.
Then we just stood there for a moment looking at each other.
“So, uhhh, I, uhhh don’t have a bathing suit,” she said as she glanced away from me.
“Me either,” I laughed. “I guess I didn’t think about that. We could just take our clothes off?”
“Yeah, I guess,” She bit her bottom lip.
“The water is a bit opaque,” I continued. “So, we won’t really see each--”
“That will work,” she cleared her throat. “I uhhh, just wanna soak. You know?”
“I can turn my head if you want?” I asked.
“Uhh, It probably doesn’t matter,” she whispered. “I guess I don’t care.”
“But, you sound like you do care,” I said as I pulled off my shirt. Several small splitters were embedded in my chest as well but they were more itchy than painful.
“I just…” she hesitated and sighed as she began to unbuckle her belt. “I haven't been naked in front of a guy in a long time.”
“You can keep your panties on if you want,” I said with a shrug as I dropped my jeans.
“No, that would just be weird,” Anna muttered, and then she shimmied out of her jeans. She did leave her underwear on though. They were white and rose high on her perfect hips.
“Look, I just want you to be comfortable,” I said as I pulled my own pants off. “I can go and let you--”
“It’s fine. This was my idea.” She let out another sigh as she pulled off her shirt. She had on a black sports bra that she peeled off right after to reveal perky round breasts.
My gaze drifted to her breasts as I slipped off my underwear.
“Shit,” Anna muttered as her eyes drifted to my crotch. She went a little red, and I watched as her nipples got hard.
Then we both stared at each other for a few moments. Her green eyes seemed to devour my naked body, and my eyes drank in her pale, but slightly freckled skin and her lean athletic body.
“I’m gonna get in.” I chuckled and slipped into the tub. The warm bubbles danced and popped around me and a pleasant aroma rose from the steam.
“Is it as nice as it looks?” Anna asked as she lingered at the edge of the tub in her cotton underwear.
“Are you asking about my dick?” I smirked at her.
“Ohhh, god,” she gasped, and then her face turned fire-engine red. “No, I meant the water. The water!”
“Yeah,” I laughed as I gestured at the bubbles. “It’s great. I think you should join me.”
“You’re right,” she said. “I am being stupid, sorry.” She pulled off her panties and tossed them in a pile with her other clothes.
Anna’s body had looked amazing with the underwear on, but she somehow looked a hundred times more sexy completely nude. She had a small tuft of dark red hair set between her legs that obscured what waited beneath, but the lines and curves of her muscles connecting her legs and abs to her hips were now fully exposed for me to appreciate. She really did have a rocking body, and I felt myself grow hard in the water.
“Oh, it’s great!” Anna slipped into the tub across from me and let out a long and happy moan.
“Right?” I said with a laugh.
“I didn’t know how much I needed this,” she said as she closed her eyes and let herself sink in until the water reached her neck.
I felt her feet brush up against me as she relaxed and let her body float, and then she opened one eye as I grabbed her by the ankle and gently pulled her closer.
“What are you doing?” she gasped as her naked thigh bumped into mine.
“You said you would help me with all these splinters didn’t you?” I asked.
She smiled, nodded, and leaned out of tub to grab a small black pouch from the side of the tub. Then she unzipped it and pulled out a set of tweezers before tossing the pouch onto the floor. “Where do you want me to start?”
“Go with the face and work your way down,” I said.
“Work my way down, huh?” she whispered as her eyes flickered to mine.
“Yeah,” I whispered in return.
The redhead nodded and ran a hand gently over my face a moment before she brought up the tweezers and pulled out the first small bit of wood.
“Thank you,” I said with a wince.
“Of course,” she said as she yanked out another.
For a while we sat in silence as Anna gently felt around my body and tended to my wounds. Her arms rested on my chest while she worked, and she was kind of half-sitting on my right thigh. All I really need to do was grab her by the waist and move her over a few inches to the left, and my rock hard cock would slide inside of her.
And from the way her cheeks were flushed, I guessed that she was thinking the same thing.
“You know, I was nervous when you first came along,” Anna whispered after she pulled out the last splinter from my torso.
“I think everyone was,” I said.
“Yeah, but I was nervous for a different reason,” she replied.
“Why is that?” I asked
“You seemed kind and genuine from the start, and I was afraid I would grow to like you more than I should,” she admitted.
“Why would that be a problem?” I asked
“Last summer I went through a huge break up,” she explained. “The guy was a fucking asshole and left my heart in pieces, so I swore off guys. Hell, until you came along I was actually starting to think I wasn’t even into guys anymore.”
“So, you were afraid we would grow close, and I would disappoint you just like the last guy?” I asked
“Pretty much,” she sighed. “I’m starting to think that might not be the case though.” She tossed the tweezers behind her and placed a hand on my chest.
“Well I am glad you feel comfortable with me,” I said as I reached up to wrap my right hand around her muscular waist.
“Oh my god,” Anna said as she rolled her eyes. “Alright, I'm done being subtle and flirty, Tav. Shut up and kiss me.”
“I’m going to do a lot more than just kiss you,” I growled and then I leaned in and aggressively kissed her ful
l lips.
Anna tasted like cinnamon and oranges, and grabbed the back of my head, kissed me back hard, and forced her tongue past my lips. Then she moaned into my mouth as I returned the favor with my own tongue.
Anna rubbed her stiff nipples against my chest and rubbed up against my cock until she finally gave in and just grabbed it. The redhead was practically panting as she pulled her lips away from mine and stroked my shaft.
“You seem to be ready for more,” I said.
“Yes, please,” she pleaded.
I grinned and ran a hand between her thighs. She moaned and quivered as I slid them closer to her crotch.
Then I wrapped my fingers around each side of her hips, lifted her up over my cock, and slowly lowered her down onto me. She reached a hand down into the water to help guide me in, and we both let out a gasp of sweet agony when my cock filled her pussy and pushed her walls out.
“Oh. My. God.” Her words came out in a groan of ecstasy, and she leaned her head against my chest as she sighed.
“You are so tight,” I whispered in her ear.
“Cause you are so big,” she replied. “Shit. It feels really good.”
“We haven’t even started yet,” I purred, and then I began to push and pull on her hips so that I slid in and out of her tunnel in the spa.
At first, I was doing most of the guiding with my hands, but then the athletic redhead began to take things at her own pace, and I just ended up holding her hips while she used her legs to grind and rub me inside of her. After five minutes, I felt her body begin to tense, and she bit my shoulder as a violent orgasm began to take her. The beautiful redhead’s pussy tightened and spasmed around my shaft while she climaxed, and I pulled her long hair back so that I could kiss her sweet lips. This drove her over the edge even more, and she screamed into my mouth as her body shook and spasmed for a second time.
“Holy shit,” she gasped once her body relaxed.
“Yeah,” I replied as I kissed her neck.
“You are so good,” she whispered. “I’ve never come like that before.”
“You did all the work,” I laughed.
“I guess I did,” she laughed, “and I’m getting all hot in this water. Can we take this to that massive bed?”
