Working The Holes
Not all stories take me ages to write. Treatment took me three years. This one took three days. I just had the energy and the drive and the mindset to put it together properly in short order. Also glad to add in a species I don’t see often. I’m trying to get a bit more mammalian representation in here, since my story submissions are currently extremely heavily tilted towards reptiles (not a bad thing, but I like to be a bit more diverse), as are a huge number of the story ideas I have floating around.

The knock at the door came right on time. Adam opened the door in an instant, greeting the mole warmly. “Thanks so much for coming. It was Dover, right?"
“Yep, and you were Adam, if I remember right...happy to be here, I always enjoy the chance to show off my expertise, especially if I’m getting paid for it.” Dover grinned at the human as he stepped in; he was a few inches shorter than the human but a lot broader. “Vern didn’t give me a lot of details, but he did say you were digging out a tunnel of some sort, and that’s about all I need to know to be interested.”
“It’s a bit more complicated than that, but the digging’s where I need the help, and Vern said you were the expert in that.” Vern was their mutual friend, and the main reason Adam and Dover knew each other at all. They were mostly acquaintances, having seen each other at group functions and chatted casually, but they didn’t know each other too well to that point. Still, Adam found Dover to be nice enough, and there wasn’t resistance to taking up Vern on the suggestion for help from him. “You want anything to drink or anything?”
“Maybe bring some stuff down while we're working, it's good to keep hydrated. Digging's a tough task, repetitive motion and weight all tied together...even for my style, it's gonna be a workout."
Adam nodded in understanding. “Makes sense. I'd like to kind of show you what the situation is before we start getting down to brass tacks."
“Good plan. I'd like to see what your work area's like, just in case something's not in good shape. Down in the basement, I'm assuming?"
“You got it. Come on down…" Adam led Dover down the steps to the basement of his home. It wasn't a very well-worked area, obviously only partly finished; one of the concrete walls on the far end was broken down, and some dirt dug out from the area. The rest of the basement was quite spartan apart from the near corner which held a washing machine and dryer; there were a few shelves of miscellaneous stuff but mostly bare floors and walls.
“You weren't kidding when you said this place needed work," Dover remarked as he looked around. “The previous owners didn't really want a basement, did they?"
“It was more that they didn't have the time to work on it. They felt it would be good to have a basement for certain purposes, but stuff came up, and that eventually forced them to sell. I liked the idea of a place I could develop how I wanted, so it wasn't really a knock on the place...but it's gonna take a lot of work to get it how I want it."
“It looks like there's a lot of space to work with...so why do you want to do digging?"
“Well, I wanted a couple of separate rooms, and the layout of this place isn't really good for achieving that. Like, over there…" Adam pointed to the far right, where there was a large empty space. “I'm going to put in a hot tub, and I want to add in a sauna next to it. The sauna needs some isolation, so there's gonna be a separate room for it."
“Ah, fair enough. And what you're digging out now?"
“I want to put in a dark room for my photography. Even though digital photos are becoming more common, I still like the traditional film as well, and it's getting really tough to find anyone who'll take care of that. So I'm planning on putting one in for film development. And that's where the tunnel comes in - I want a two-door isolation so that I don't accidentally get a bunch of light in and ruin the photos. So there'll be a tunnel with a door at each end, and the dark room at the other side."
Dover nodded thoughtfully. “I see...so it's not gonna be a long tunnel, just about fifteen feet or so long, four or so wide?"
“About that. The dark room's gonna need to be dug out as well, though, and that's gonna need to be a bit larger."
“No doubt. And you want someone to help out with the digging because you're realizing how much work that's gonna be?" There was a cheeky note to the question, though good-natured.
Adam chuckled in response. “That and I realized that doing everything myself was gonna take forever. I'm probably gonna get help with the construction as well, though I don't want to monopolize your time."
“Well, I'll be happy to help out, but you'll probably want at least one other person with more experience than I have. I'm good enough at hauling around and putting together, but I'm not all that versed in how to make it look good and make a sound design. But for the digging, I can definitely handle it, so long as you can handle me around!"
“Ah, I'm sure that won't be a problem! So, shall we get started?"
“You bet! Just let me get comfortable…" Dover pulled his shirt off over his head, tossing it on the ground to the side. His chest and back bore thick muscles, a sign of his life of labor and work that had him in solid physical shape as well as the genes that directed him to a shorter and stouter stature. “Hope it's not imposing on you at all, it's gonna be hot work and I'll do better if I can breathe a bit easier."
“No problem at all, I'll be doing the same." And Adam wasn't about to complain about the view; Dover looked really good, he wished he had a body like that. He wasn't in bad shape himself, not very bulky but his figure was fit, but he admired guys who could have that muscular look. It just would have taken a bit too much time for him to get there, more than he had the ability to afford. “I'll get some snacks and drinks for us before I start, though, so that we don't have to be running up and down the stairs all the time."
“No sweat, I'll go ahead and get started." Dover grinned and cracked his knuckles, eager to dig in, joke intended even in his mind. Most of his digging was very casual, there wasn't a lot of times where he could put it to good use, and he relished every such opportunity. Truthfully, he'd probably have done it for nothing, but he wasn't going to turn down a little extra cash in his pocket if Adam was offering. He plunged his thick paws into the soil, savoring the texture as he started to break it apart and pull it out. This was gonna be fun.
Progress was a lot faster than Adam had expected, even with the help of a digging expert. An hour of work passed, with Dover using his expert claws to clear out the passage while Adam did his best to assist with some tools of his own. It was tiring labor for sure; Adam had already figured that out when he was digging himself, and it didn't get easier just because he had a partner, one who was also sweating profusely as time went on. By the time they called far a break, though, they had a good several feet of the tunnel cleared.
“Man...I didn't think we'd get so far so quickly. You're really good!" Adam slugged down the majority of a bottle of water. “At this rate, the tunnel'll be shaped in no time."
Dover grinned. “What can I say? I work fast."
“You can say that again. I'm impressed, though...you don't seem worried about anything. I couldn't even get myself motivated at first because I was terrified the whole thing was going to cave in on me...how do you keep from worrying about that?"
“Taking action against it. One of those things that I learned early on that I had to attend to if I didn't want to find myself buried alive." Dover pointed towards the sides and ceiling of the passage where he'd been digging. “It's a good point, any time you dig you weaken the integrity of the soil nearby...it gets looser and more prone to critical failure. So when I'm digging, I make a point of reinforcing the area I want to keep stable. So you see I've been tamping down the dirt on the walls when I think I'm at the outer limit of where I want to go. Same thing for the ceiling, at least as far as I can reach. Makes it so that the walls are less likely to break down, providing a safer space...if something does fail, it's likely to fail into an open space Not perfect but pretty effective."
Adam nodded as he examined the walls where the dirt had been packed in. “Huh...that makes a lot of sense, I never thought of that."
“Yeah, and there's another advantage, it means less dirt to dig out and move around. Once you compact it you get extra space that you can fill in with some of the stuff you dig out. Means less hauling after the fact."
“I thought there was an awfully small pile out there. Man, I'm glad I brought you in, your knowing these things is making the whole project a lot easier than it would've been. I'm gonna owe you a good bit after this."
“hah, don't worry too much about it, I ain't gonna gouge you. I like this kinda stuff, it's fun and relaxing to me. Well, except for these shorts riding up like a bitch." The mole let out a chuckle as he tried to adjust the garment. “A bit tough to work with them, you know?"
“So much for getting comfortable, eh?"
“Heh, you said it. I usually go without when I'm digging, just one less thing to worry about. But I figure that's probably improper when I'm a guest in someone else's house."
Adam thought on that for a moment. “Well, you can lose 'em if you want. I won't stop you."
“Heh, that's nice of you to say, but I think I'd get a bit self-conscious like that."
“Well, if it helps any, I'll join you with it. I wouldn't have a problem getting these things off myself, they're riding up a bit on me as well."
Dover looked at him in a bit of surprise, then snickered with a hint of embarrassment. “You sure? I wouldn't wanna make you uncomfortable or anything, being in the buff around you…"
Adam shrugged nonchalantly. “I played baseball in high school. We had a communal shower and a lot of guys who didn't give a shit about covering up. I've seen enough sheath and balls to get used to it. Of course, if you're not comfortable with it, you can forget I said anything."
“Heh, well, if you're good with it, I won't argue it any. It'll be a lot nicer to not have them in the way. Though, you won't see all that much, I guess." With that, Dover hooked his thumbs under the band and dropped his shorts down his legs, kicking them off onto the basement floor. Adam couldn't help but notice that he seemed to have a nice healthy sheath that hinted at a nice-sized prize within...but he didn't let his gaze linger, not wanting to appear rude. Instead he doffed his own shorts, letting his own jewels breathe easier; it the cooler underground air, it felt pretty nice, especially with the prospect of more hot and sweaty work.
Already Dover looked a lot more at ease. “Ah...that's so much better. Thanks a ton, Adam."
“No problem...should we get back to work, then?"
“Yeah, I think I'm good. Let's get digging!"
The work resumed, another long hour of toil that put their muscles through the wringer. It was definitely a little more comfortable with nothing on, nothing to get soaked with sweat and start getting itchy or riding up on them, and even Adam felt more in his element that way. It was clear why Dover preferred it this way; he was glad the mole spoke up, he likely wouldn't have noticed on his own, and since Dover was the one helping him out, he was more than happy to accommodate him.
Of course, there was one little added distraction...he couldn't help but glance at Dover every now and then, getting an eyeful of his backside as the mole worked his magic. He tried not to linger, chastising himself whenever he caught his eye wandering; he knew he shouldn't be eyeing up Dover like that, it wasn't exactly polite behavior. But it proved tougher than he thought; he hadn't had any action for a while and the mole's physique was pushing his buttons, whether he knew it or not.
Why don't you go for it? You know he's gay, Vern introduced him to you that way. Maybe he's not single, but you might as well ask.
He tried to shake that thought out of his head. Didn't want Dover getting the wrong idea about why he was invited here...he might think he was being brought in for a show rather than a real job. Fighting with his mind was a bit frustrating, and he tried to use the work to put the ideas out of his head, but that left him open to not realizing where he was looking.
Finally, Dover stepped back with a hefty sigh. “Phew...I think we might be as far in as we want to be."
“Huh?" Adam stopped working and looked around. To his surprise, it seemed like Dover was right; they had a passage about fifteen feet in length dug out. He hadn't even realized how close they were. “Hey, yeah...wow, that went a lot fast than I expected."
“Didn't seem like you noticed...thought you might have something else on your mind." Dover laughed a bit as Adam went red...though he noticed that the mole wasn't hiding anything now, leaning back to give him as much of a view as he wanted. “Don't worry, I'm not angry...been a while since I've had someone give me THAT look, kinda flattering really."
“Apologies anyway...wasn't my intent, I swear I'm not a lech. Not that you're not a sight for sore eyes, though."
“No problem. Though I wonder, did your baseball buddies ever take issue with you trying to sneak a peek at them?"
Now it was Adam's turn to laugh. “Not really, because I wouldn't have called it 'sneaking' so much as 'blatantly ogling.' Teen me wasn't nearly as subtle as he could've been. Not that it mattered, they weren't any different."
“Hah, we're talking that kinda team spirit, are we?"
“Yep. Fifteen guys on the team not including me. At least three of them were gay, two of them were either bi or experimenting, and most of the others were horny enough to take a handy at least. Lost my virginity to one of them, and I had more than a few encounters with all the ones that were outright gay. Never been that active at any other point in my life, but don't tell my parents that, they think my first experience was as a college sophomore."
“Nice. I haven't gotten any in a while, had a bad break-up and only just recently got back into the scene. Not that I had a ton of action before that, even, but it was something."
“Yeah, it's been a while for me too...the whole buying a new house thing and all the work I've been putting in hasn't left me a lot of time to go fishing. I'm surprised, though, I would've thought you'd have guys all over you the way you look."
“Eh, turns out my look isn't as popular as you might think. At least in the places I've looked, they either want tall and muscled, or short and femmy. Half-and-half just doesn't seem to fit the bill, it seems...most of my one-night stands were people who were clearly settling for something they weren't into. So was my relationship...that break-up, that was my first really long-term thing, like more than a couple months, and he hid a lot of shit from me that I just kinda glossed over because I wanted to think it was all working out. Won't make THAT mistake again."
“Sorry to hear that, but it sounds like it's a good thing he's out of the picture. And for what it's worth, I think you're hot as hell."
Dover cracked a devious grin at Adam. “Is that a come-on?"
“Depends...do you want it to be?"
“Ya know, I think I do." Dover stepped up towards Adam, pressing him against the dirt wall, getting his body up nice and close to the human, his short somewhat coarse fur a little scratchy against his skin. “Been too long since I've been this close to a guy and we were both naked...hope I'm not out of practice." He reached down and started rubbing Adam's dick with his hand, rubbing in some stray dirt as he stroked it.
“Ooh...I think you're doing just fine. That feels so good…" Adam moaned quietly, shivering with pleasure; that big, rough paw felt a lot better than his own hand. He reached out to rub at Dover's sheath, seeking the prize within, and it took only moments for it to appear - a nice, healthy size, longer and thicker than his own, tapering to a thinner point at the end. It was slightly wet under his fingers, and he did his best not to rub that off as he stroked the length of the shaft. “Ah, you're a pretty big one down there…"
“You think so? I figured you might have experience with some bigger ones from your high school days…"
“Maybe a little, but it's been a while since then, so I think I'm gonna feel it a lot more."
“I'll make that a good thing." Dover suddenly grabbed him and pulled him gently to the ground, pouncing on top of him and holding him down in the dirt with his heavier body. He gave Adam a smirk before lowering his head, letting his tongue out to lick across the human's nipples. Each time that organ raked over one of those nubs Adam let out a shiver and a cry, arching his back in pleasure. His fingers clawed at the dirt, dragging through and loosening the soil where their feet had compressed it.
“Ah...Dover, please...stop teasing…"
Dover lifted his head and chuckled. “What, you're not big on foreplay?"
“I'm bigger on foreplay when it's been less than five months since I took a cock. I just...I need you, NOW."
“Heh, fair enough, but you have to promise I can show you what else I can do later."
“God, yes. Anything!"
“Then you've got yourself a deal." Dover pulled himself up and lined up his cock at Adam's hole; there was a good bit of dirt on it now from being pressed against the soil that he didn't notice. Slowly he pushed in, letting the thinner tip lead the way and expand that passage gradually. Both of them moaned out now as they finally felt the first bit of satiation of the urges they'd been feeling for months. “Ohhhh fuck...your ass is so tight, Adam…" Dover muttered out as he pressed in all the way, claws raking the ground as he took in the incredible pleasure of being inside another male, even better after the drought.
“You feel so huge, Dover...damn, I've been needing this…" It wasn't long before the feelings became familiar again for Adam, the pleasure of his rear being stretched out quickly reasserting itself after initial twinges of discomfort. He hadn't expected it to go that easy, but the slick fluid on Dover's cock eased his entry quite a bit. It probably would have been wise to wait a bit longer to adjust, but now that Dover was in him he was feeling more impatient than ever. “Go ahead...I'm ready."
With a nod, Dover worked himself into action. The claws on his fingers and toes dug deep into the ground as he began to thrust into Adam, taking it fairly slow to start but pushing in with a distinct power that made sure the human felt it. Adam was more free to move now as Dover had raised himself up a bit, and he made the most of it by raising his back a bit and pushing into Dover's thrusts, raising the intensity just a little bit and giving him the best angle to find the sweet spot. Seen he had the mole plugging it with every entry, making his cock jerk and spit pre quite frequently.
Slowly, the action built up...Dover plunging in faster and harder, Adam spreading his legs wider to let him in more easily. A chorus of moans and panting were coming in tune from both of them, their bodies getting a fresh layer of sweat from the heat of their rutting. Now Dover was lowering himself again, letting his weight down on Adam a bit and rubbing their dirty bodies together, his fur raking lightly against him and providing an extra layer of stimulation. Soon Adam's hands found a new purchase, moving from the dirt to Dover's back, clinging to him hard and bringing them as close to each other as they could get. It felt fantastic, such a strong muscled body so close to him...he could have stayed this close for ages.
But he wasn't going to hold out for ages; he could already feel his orgasm bubbling up, coming on fast thanks to his pent-up state. And soon enough Dover was in the same position, his thrusts becoming a bit less steady and harder, banging against his hot spot over and over. “Ngh...Adam...gonna…"
“D-do it!" It was all Adam could get out as he felt himself go off, adding to the mess on their bodies as he shot hard and fast, getting them wet with his seed on their stomachs. Seconds later, Dover let out a grunt of relief and release as he started spurting into Adam's ass. The human let out a moaning sigh as he felt himself get filled, the warm liquid seeping into him and spreading around his ass, the feeling familiar and very welcome. Dover had quite a bit to fill him with, too, shot after shot flooding into him until he felt like every reachable inch of him was coated in mole cum.
As they felt the high recede, Dover pressed himself against Adam, rolling them onto their sides and wrapping his arms around him, the two of them panting into each other. “God, that felt so good...I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did."
“Mm, maybe even more...can't believe I waited that long to get some action again, I missed that more than I ever thought. Now I'm not gonna want to work any more, though…"
“Heh, well, there's not much more to dig out, anyway, and it's probably better to get this passage fully set up before you start digging out the dark room. But as long as you don't feel like working, maybe we can find something else to do, the two of us together."
“Yeah...I think so. Course, we'll need a shower before that happens."
“Mind if I join you? I seem to remember you have a lot of experience showering with other guys…"
Adam snickered. “You're just hoping for a shot at a second round before we're done."
“Heh, can't fault me for trying, right?"
“Well, if my dick allows, I'm not big on anal standing up, but I can show you how well I can use my mouth if you're willing to return the favor."
Dover grinned, pulling himself out of Adam's rear and lifting him up to his feet. “Don't even have to ask."
