Chapter Forty-One
They brought the dinner packets to their tent to eat. Later they went to Xavion and Juliette's tent to spend a little time before sleeping.
"Angela let's go," said Damian, pulling her along towards their own tent.
"Goodnight guys, seen you tomorrow morning. Don't forget to set the alarm," Angela reminded them.
"Yes, Goodnight," said Xavion and Juliette. Damian brought her to their tent excitedly.
Damian had bought a double sleeping bag for themselves. "I'll go to the restroom and freshen up," she said.
"I'm coming with you," said Damian. They freshened up and changed into their sleep clothes and came back to their tent.
Going inside Angela lay down. Damian came in and zipped them up, giving them total privacy. He quickly got rid of his own clothes and lay down beside her. "Who needs clothes when I'm going to discard them anyway," he whispered as his hands pulled her top away exposing her creamy breasts to his hungry eyes.
"Oh Damian, please," she gasped when she felt his touch on her breasts.
"Do you want me as much as I want you?" He whispered asked and she nodded.
"Say it," he ordered.
"Yes, " she said and his warm mouth latched onto her breasts and sucked and his hand teased the other one hungrily.
He discarded her flannel shorts along with her panties at one go. Angela's breath hitched when he touched her wetness between the legs. His mouth traveled downwards to lick and suck there. He thrust his tongue in and out of her, the muscles on his back rippling as he continued the torture. Angela clasped onto his head and shoulders as she finally found her release. Damian positioned himself above her and thrust her, embedding himself into her completely.
A moan escaped her at the pleasure as he kept on pumping in and out of her. It had been so long that Damian knew he wouldn't be satiated after once. They made love innumerable times till they fell asleep.
The next morning, Angela woke up early. She went to the restroom to freshen up and take a shower while it was empty. Returning back to their tent, she saw Damian too up. He got their coffee and they sipped inhaling the fresh air and watching the cool mesmerizing natural breeze blowing softly from across the waters onto their faces.
"Xavion and Juliette aren't up yet," said Damian, and Angela nodded. She had passed their tent on her way back from the restroom and seen that they were still sleeping. Damian went to shower afterward. Angela got breakfast packets for all four of them. Depositing theirs at their tent, she went to wake up Xavion and Juliette and hand them their food.
Damian returned from the restroom and they ate breakfast and got ready to start the activities of the day.
They left ten minutes behind the scheduled time and reached Longhorn Cavern in ten minutes. Located atop Backbone Ridge, a small chain of beautiful limestone hills, Longhorn Cavern State Park offered many outdoor activities to fill one's day.
They admired the park's architectural wonders, buildings that dated back to even the 1930s. They took a leisurely hike along the Backbone Ridge trail system, they enjoyed a picnic snack under an old grove of Hill Country trees.
They went up to the historic CCC Observation Tower and enjoyed a 360-degree view of the Texas Hill Country, including the nearby Falkenstein Castle.
Then they returned to the camp for lunch. Xavion and Damian exchanged the pictures that they had clicked and shared them with the girls.
After lunch, they drove to the Bear Springs Winery for a three-hour tour. It was a wonderful experience for them. Later they were taken to the Horseshoe Bay Lighthouse and a cruise along the Colorado river which took them back to their campsite. The Craig lake was connected to a distributary of the Colorado river it seemed. This was an additional activity that was suddenly available so the organizers took advantage of it. The extra charges would be adjusted later on.
They were too tired for any games. Damian and Xavion however played dodgeball and basketball with the other guys. Angela and Juliette attended the friendship bracelet weaving activity. They made a friendship bracelet for each other and fixed it on one another's wrists.
They had dinner and went to sit at the bonfire where many sat, drinking and laughing. The boys joined them. They chatted for some time and soon were called by the organizers to make the payments for the extra activities. When they left, someone passed the girls the drinks. Juliette drank for the first time along with Angela.
"That's it for you, Angel," said Damian, picking her up and walking to their tent.
Xavion too simply picked Juliette up and walked to their tent.
Angela didn't drink as much as Juliette did. She had only half a glass and wasn't at all drunk. Damian strode to their tent and deposited her inside. He too came in and zipped up the tent. He lay over her and claimed her lips in a rough and possessive kiss. His hands molded her to his body. His hot tongue glided into her mouth and devoured her sweetness.
He pulled down his denim jeans as well as his underwear. He pulled down her jeans and panties too, parting her legs. Positioning himself above her, he thrust inside her. "I've waited the whole day to make love to you," he breathed.
"Please, faster, " she said and Damian obliged. They both found their release together and lay down beside one another to catch their breaths.
"I don't want this trip to end," said Damian, and Angela agreed.
"Even me," she sighed.
Damian wore his clothes and so did Angela. "I'll take a shower before bed," she said.
"Me too," Damian said. They were about to leave to go to the washroom when a classmate of theirs came hurrying down towards their tent.
"Damian, the police are arresting Xavion. Come fast," he said. Damian was shocked at the news. He and Angela ran with the boy to where the incident was taking place. He took them to a deserted boathouse in the far end of the lake. It was a little far from the camping site. He informed them that a classmate of theirs, Wesley Drake had abducted Juliette against her will and tried to rape her at the deserted boathouse. Zavion had stopped the heinous act and beaten Wesley up badly. The police who were colleagues of Wesley's dad came and arrested Xavion.
When they reached the site, they didn't find anyone there. They went back to their campsite and saw a sobbing Juliette packing up. She broke down in front of her friends telling them exactly what happened.
Her dad, Jayson, and Jaden came in ten minutes as Travis Springs was very near. They went to the boathouse and took pictures. They recorded Juliette's FIR report. Jayson spoke to the organizers and assembled all Wesley's friends. They spilled the truth after Juliette's dad and older brother both of whom were lawyers threatened them.
With their verdicts, they went to the police station and threatened the sheriff and Wesley's dad. They released Xavion. They packed up all their camping gear and left with Juliette's family to her house in Travis Springs. Angela supported Juliette in comforting her out of her traumatic experience. They spent the night at her house and the next morning, Damian and Angela left Travis Springs to return home.
"I don't want to go back," said Angela with a sigh.
"Even I don't. Let's go to Grass Roots Farm. Your dad wouldn't be expecting us till evening today," he suggested and Angela smiled happily.
"Yes, let's go, " agreed Angela.
They drove to the farm excited to be able to spend the whole day with each other.
They reached the farm and Angela could see the volunteers and trainees working at the farm. They went for a walk, hand in hand checking the work in progress. "I wish I could live here forever, " said Angela.
"I wish too. I want our children to run around and grow up in the lap of nature," said Damian.
"Me too," said Angela. They interacted with the workers and Damian discussed their plans with his right-hand man, Jim Rogers. They caught a trout and cooked it together, enjoyed their meal together. It was a carefree life and they craved it to last longer. In the evening when all the workers had left, they made love like it was the last time they would be together.
At last, it was seven in the evening and at the end of their outing together. As Damian drove them home, Angela stared out of the windows dejectedly. God only knew when they could be together again.
"I don't want to go back," said a dejected Damian.
"Neither do I. Let's announce our engagement to dad tomorrow at dinnertime?" Asked Angela and Damian agreed.
"Yes, I'll come over," he said. They reached home in an hour. Damian switched off his ignition and climbed down from his GMC Sierra. Even Angela got down.
"Kiss me before you go Angel. God only knows when we'll get the opportunity again," said Damian, and Angela obliged. Her hands went around his neck as she kissed him deeply. He pulled her into his arms too lost in the kiss to notice the door of Angela's house opening and her dad coming out.
"Angela get inside the house, this minute," he yelled at his daughter.
