Chapter 9

The truth of the matter is that the little gift that I was given by Robert was a goodbye gift. I had totally forgotten that his Birthday was on the horizon and it was not until about two days before that I remembered. I had always been good at drawing so in my spare time I drew a few pictures for him as a present. Mr Rice was very kind in letting me take time off to get the job done.

I took Ruth's Ambition into a field and spent time making about six drawings of her from different angles. These I then rolled into a tube and gave to Robert on his birthday. The next day he left to join the air force. I never saw him again.

I often used that piece of wood as a stimulant when I was sad or lonely. It is amazing what the simplest of things can do for you and your life style. I still have the gift though I have not used it as it was intended for some years now. I keep it in a small jewel box by my bed and I often take it out just to hold it and remember.

It was about three days before Robert's birthday that he called Elaine and I to help him with the dogs. This was strange as he was usually able to take care of them on his own. The five dogs all lived in a pen round the back of one of the many sheds that dotted the land that we owned. It was a sheltered area of about a half acre run and kennels.

Seven of them though we only had five dogs. The two empty ones were kept just in case. Of course with the bitch having pups out of the corral, there were only four dogs to care fore at present. The pups and mum were still in the mares stables, and doing fine.

Elaine had been down to feed the dogs on many occasions but had had little else to do with them. I had never had anything to do with them except to pet them sometimes. Now it was our turn to learn all there was to know and in a matter of hours. When we arrived at the corral all the dogs crowded round to great us, and in the usual dog manner thrust their noses into the front or back of out jodhpurs. Robert received this from each dog in turn and it was quickly over for him, but Elaine and I had a prolonged examination as we were both new to the corral and had to be checked out thoroughly. It was quite embarrassing at first but it soon turned out to be a good joke and we all laughed about it.

Robert called us over to where we had to clean the food bowls and put down fresh water. As we went over we were still subjected to the nose thrusts as we walked, which was a little difficult to contend with, but as soon as the food came out we were left and the food became the centre of attention.

Robert showed us how to measure the food for each animal and in what order to feed them so as to keep within the pecking order of the pack.

I had had no idea that it could be so particular in its execution, but Robert assured us that it was the best way. He then showed us the washing facilities and explained the reason for washing the animals. It is pretty much the same reason that we wash, we get smelly if we don't.

The whole process is a bit like keeping thorough-bred horses. Washing and grooming, feeding and exercising.

Elaine and I decided to do the job together to begin with and then when we both were sure that we could control the animals and not forget any part of the chores we would take turns, day on, day off. This worked out very well for about a week but then Elaine started to ask if she could take my turn. Occasionally at first but it soon developed that she was doing the dogs every day and I was left with all the horses. I also noticed that she was taking longer as the days went by. More of this later.

In the mean time Robert's birthday got closer. I finished my drawings and we all started to speculate as to when Robert would receive his call up papers. As his birthday fell on a Tuesday I said that he would get the call up on a Thursday or Friday demanding his attendance on the Saturday. The others all said different things and in the end we were all wrong. He never got them as the day after his birthday he left and went to join the Air Force before he could be called up for one of the other services.

Apparently Robert had handed his notice in to Mr Rice a couple of weeks before and had been told to find someone to take his place. The problem was that, because of the war, there was no one to hand. So it ended up with Mr Rice doing the heavy work and we girls doing all the other less demanding tasks. We all just had to buckle down and do more work in the same amount of time. Every farm and country firm was in the same boat.

Working wives and mothers did not start to turn up for these jobs until about harvest time when the real work became necessary.

The day before his birthday Robert came round and told us that he would be leaving and that was why we had to learn the dog business. That explained everything, but he did not say that he would be leaving the day after next. That came from Mr Rice.

In the afternoon Mr Rice came round and told us to do as much of the next days work as possible today because there was to be a party for Robert as it was his birthday and he would be leaving the next day after that. But we were not to say anything to Robert as it was to be a surprise. We were stunned and shocked and set about a plan to have one last romp in the hay with our trusty human steed. It was Elaine's plan but I was not going to go against it if it was likely to be the last time I had him in a very long time. It seems as though Robert had been hatching this plan to leave and join up for several months so as not to end up in a force he did not want. The party was due to start at about two p.m. and would end about tea time. As it happened it went on to after six but that worked to our advantage.

Elaine and I worked furiously all the rest of that day until it was almost dark. Mr Rice came to tell us to stop work as it was getting late. As it was we had nearly finished every thing that we could. Of course we would still have the feeding, mucking out and exercising to do but that would not take too long.

Robert came in to get the feed ready for the next day and as we were both there to help, we jumped on him and demanded satisfaction. And got it.

We almost tore his clothes of his back trying to get our lover to serve us with his favours. When we were all naked Elaine took his legs and I took his head and we both rode at least around the block and back.

Robert seemed to be loving the attention that we were giving him and confessed afterwards that the one thing he would dearly miss from the stables was us girls sitting on his face and dick...

Once we had both had an orgasm we swapped ends and rode some more.

There was not a lot of finesse or cunning in our plot, that was supposed to come the next day, this was just a bonus to be taken advantage of.

We rode and swapped, rode and swapped, according to our orgasms and we only stopped because Robert himself eventually shot his load. Elaine was the recipient, but only by a few seconds. We had just swapped again and it was as she slid down onto his rod that he squirted into her. I felt a little cheated because I had missed it by mere seconds, but that was the way of the world.

We cleaned ourselves up and finished the chores, just making things tidy really, and then went home to bed. It was nearly midnight when I arrived home.

The following day passed very quickly and it was soon time for the party. It took a while for things to get going but Mr Rice took the bull by the horns and started the dancing. After that it did not seem that anything would stop the party. Everybody presented their presents to Robert who was overwhelmed by the generosity of all who attended. I felt a little sad after I had given my efforts to him because he did not seem to give them the attention that I thought they deserved. I know better now and I should not have worried any way. I was later told in a letter after Robert was killed that he had had the six pictures framed and hung in one of the rooms in the base where he was stationed. This lifted my heart no end after he died, to think that he had thought so much of my work. It made me so glad that he had felt proud enough of them to share them with the rest of his group. I do not know what happened to them after the end of the war. They were probably destroyed or some other person took a fancy to them and took them home. I like to think that they still hang on someone's walls but I rather think that they would have been thrown with the junk, at the end when all the offices were cleared out.

That night after the party when Elaine and I sprang our trap for Robert he told me that he thought that my present was the best of the lot. I believed him at the time but as the weeks went by I learned that he had probably said those things to make me feel better at his leaving. It is true that I cried at the parting and I ached for him for many weeks after he left. But of course I overcame the sorrow in the end.

The night when we said good by to Robert was not that good as far as sex was concerned. Both Elaine and I spent more time being consoled in his arms than we did trying to reach new heights of sexual ecstasy. But we spent a good three hours in his company mostly, naked and close, while we explored each others bodies. It was a tender loving evening rather than a hard passionate night.

The next day dawned sad. It seemed that all the folks that had known Robert regretted his leaving and they all had a good word for the lad that we all would miss. Even the dogs seemed to be less enthusiastic about things. They still greeted us with the nose up our crotches and they still wolfed down all the food we gave them but they other wise seemed to mill about more and with less purpose that they had shown previously.

Elaine and I settled quickly down to the new order of things now that we were a hand shorter than before. As I said previously Elaine started to take on the dogs completely by her self and I had more of the horses to do. That is not to say that I had everything to do for the horses, Elaine still helped with them but only after the dogs were done. It was maybe three to four weeks after Robert had left that I eventually went down to the kennels to see why Elaine was taking so long.

Long before I reached the place I could hear the noise of the dogs. It sounded like the hunt with the dogs yapping and howling. When I got to the gate I looked for Elaine but could not see her. I did not call for her, thinking that she was off somewhere on another errand. I was about to turn and leave when I spied her crawling out of one of the kennels.

She stood up as soon as she was out and I noticed that she was not wearing her jodhpurs. She bent over to put them on, still unaware of my presence. She had been naked in there with one of the dogs, who came out a short while later while Elaine was still trying to slide into her cloths. This could only mean one thing. She had found a new partner to replace Robert. I left quickly to avoid a confrontation because I was sick that she could go to another lover so quickly. It was also because I had not found a new lover and though I still had Rum to take care of my needs. I had not yet figured out a way to overcome the problems that I had had before Robert came to my aid.

I had a good think about Elaine and about my problem and eventually decided that though I could not sort out my difficulties I could stop Elaine getting into bigger difficulties than she had at the moment.

That afternoon I went up to her as we were working together and spoke quite openly.

"You should check who is out side before you come out of the Kennel to put your clothes back on. You were lucky that it was me who saw you and not someone else. I shall say nothing and if you do not mind I may even join you as I can not get my new lover to do what I want." The colour that rushed to her cheeks was as deep as beetroot and I new that she felt very guilty about being caught. "Do not worry, Robert himself had a few strange ways about him as far as animals were concerned, you should ask Ruth's horse, though I do not think she will want to talk about it. Elaine flustered and half panicked spluttered at me. I felt myself blush as I said this. It implied that I did not have strange ways with animals which was certainly not true

"How, how do you expect me to get any information out of a dumb horse."

I broke into laughter and this seemed to break the panic that she was experiencing. "How do you know about that anyway? Who told you?"

"He had a certain way with animals, he showed me what he liked to do with Ruth's Ambition," I replied "I do not think she minded. He was too drunk to finish when he showed me and fell off the stool that he was standing on. After that I would help him keep his balance on some occasions. I assume you did the same sometimes."

Elaine stood looking at the ground.

"Well all this time and I thought that I was the only one who knew.

Every time I saw you two together I thought that he was having sex with you especially after I caught you at it. But I will bet that he was having it with a horse more than with you. Well that is a change for the better. You will not tell about what you saw this morning, will you?"

"No." I replied. "I am very glad that you are happy to use those dogs.

It means that they will be happy and I can have any eligible male that I find in the premises." I giggled at her and she started to chase me. I ran just for the fun of it. It made me feel so much better and I think that it did the same for Elaine. She changed her timing for having sex with the dogs to the evening which was much better for us both. I did join her eventually but not before I had solved my own problems. I really thought about asking Elaine to help me but it never came to it as I found a good way round the shortage of hands.

I had spent several evenings trying to lie on my front on a bale of straw, and reach back for Rum's penis in order to insert it in the right whole. It had either taken so long that Rum had gone limp by the time I reached him, or I just could not reach to direct him in the first place.

I tried several times lying on my back but I either found that Rum got in the way or that I was too uncomfortable to stay in the position for more than a few minutes.

I resorted to sketching pictures on scraps of paper to try and find a set up that would provide me with a god position and yet give me easy access to Rum. I eventually found a way by stacking three bales in a sort of "T" shaped pyramid so that my legs were supported and I could lie on my back and still reach that most important of sexual commodities.

The first time I tried it, it did not work too well as I had placed the top bale too far from Rum's hind quarters but with a little adjusting I got it right on about the fourth try. I had found that one other thing was required to make it all go smoothly and that was to teach Rum to side step on a word command. It did not take long and I spent several days practising him when I took him for exercise. Rum took to this new unaided sex like a duck to water.

The first time that I actually felt that we had got it right I had gone to see him quite late. He had been quite agitated of late, probably due to the many attempts at having sex that had ended up in failure.

Horses, as can any animal, do not like to think they are going to get something nice only to find it is not true. They start to think that you are teasing them and then they get cross. Each time that I had failed to get Rum into me I had had to spend time soothing him and very often I had found that the only way to quiet him was to suck it out of him. This was fine in that it calmed him down but it meant that every time I went back for another try, he would get even more excited and start to prance about. This required time to soothe him before I could start, and then I had to do the same again afterwards. I was so glad once I got it worked out. So was Rum. Anyway I digress.

As I said, it was quite late and most of the days activities were over.

I had been told to go home and so I had sneaked into the stables to try and refine my new technique. Mr Rice had lowered the bales for the next day and when he had gone, I arranged them in an order that would serve for the night, and for the following days work, if I should not get a chance to be with Rum that night.

I slid the three bales into position next to Rum and then I covered them with my smelly blanket. It was getting rather high now and I knew that I would have to wash it soon. Rum watched my every move. He was calm this evening as though he knew it would all work out and tonight was the night. Once this was done I turned out my tiny light. All lights had to be small and hooded so as to prevent anyone seeing them in the dark.

This was to hide all land marks from 'Jerry' who had started flying over to bomb London.

I stripped off and hung my cloths over the side of the stall. Then I went to Rum and stroked him and soothed him. He knew what was coming and soon had a formidable erection. When I got to that part of his body I was careful to stoke him without digging my fingers into him. It could have been so easy to jab him in the dark. Everything had to be done by touch and feel as the light from outside was hardly worth mentioning. I reached back behind his penis and cupped his balls. They were quite big and seemed to be tight for some reason. As I stroked them they loosened up and descended into my hand. I then had a notion to do some thing I had never done before. I leaned toward him and bypassing his penis I kissed his sack. His balls were warm and heavy and I had the impression that they were like apples hanging on a tree in the warm sunshine. I continued to kiss and then lick the bag that held them teasing the skin with my tongue lips and teeth. Rum seemed to twitch at each contact.

His penis continued to grow. It hung down past my head and by my shoulder. As it stiffened it started to press against my breast reaching down to my stomach. After ten minutes or more of sucking on those lovely velvety apples I realised that the pressure on my breast was a call for attention else where. I could always come back to that wonderful sack of fruit.

I did not just let go of the balls that had entertained me so far, I continued to fondle them with one hand for a short while as I searched for the thick rod that was next to me. I did not have to look far of course but I did want to get hold of it in the right way, so that I could put it to my lips one handed. I managed to find a position where I could direct the end of the shaft to my mouth but I was so far away from Rum's balls by then that I had to give up on the scrotum fondling.
