Yard 'work'
The weekend progresses, the group helps with a few chores, and Mike 'helps' Rio.
"So, Sky," Kaylie said, interrupting her brother's litany as the younger terrier paused for breath, "Were you actually going to eat any of those?" "Huh?" The seven year old cocked his head at his sister before looking at his plate. The rest of the group was sitting in front of a bunch of empty wrappers whilst Skyler, in addition to the half eaten taco previously forgotten in his hand, still had two unopened ones on his plate. "Oh, yeah. Tacos." Skyler grinnned, the one in his hand rapidly disappearing into his maw in two bites, and chewed contentedly as he started unwrapping another one. "That should hold him, for a few minutes, anyway." Kaylie laughed, "While he's got his mouth full, does anybody did anybody else want to say anything?" "Yeah," Dakota said, grabbing for his cup, "I didn't want to interrupt, but can I have more tea?" "Certainly, Dakota," Rio's dad replied, retrieving the tea pot from the kitchen and glancing at Toby as he refilled the bunny's cup, "Hey, will dried rosemary work for this tea or does it have to be fresh?" "Da dried leaves work, but da effect isn't as good and da fresh sprigs make it taste better. I can always bring you more, if you want. As I said, my mom grows da stuff, so it's all over da back yard." "Speaking of his mother," Rio's mom cut in, "You did call her, at least, before using any of this?" "Yeah, he called her before I took my bath." Dakota nodded, sipping his tea, "Best bath I have ever had, actually." "Happy ta help. I'm actually gonna go buy more eucalyptus and arnica soon, I'll get you some too." "I don't have any money," the rabbit started, shaking his head, but Toby cut him off. "Money isn't da only ting i da world, Dakota, don' worry 'bout it. You'll find a way ta pay me back." The bunny took a deep breath and squared his shoulders, before meeting the parrot's gaze. "It's.... Kody." "Kody?" "Yeah. Yesterday you told me that you're name is Tobias but your friends call you Toby. Remember what I said?" "Ya. You said dat you didn't have any friends." "Right, but I don't think that's true anymore, so... Ivorion shortens to Rio, Tobias shortens to Toby, Skyler shortens to Sky... Dakota shortens to Kody." "See? Told ya you'd have friends," Toby said, holding out his hand, "Nice ta meet ya, Kody." "Kody it is," Rio's dad nodded, grinning as his son's friends shook hands, "So now that we have that straightened out and Skyler here is finished inhaling his tacos, what's the plan for this evening? I know that Mike is sticking around, but what about the rest of you? It's getting late in the day, and I don't mind having a full house but I need to know who's going to be here for dinner." "I checked when I headed home ta grab da stuff for Kody," Toby answered, stressing the nickname, and getting a small smile out of the bunny, "I can stay again if dat's okay." "No problem, anyone else?" His question was met with a flurry of motion as the assembled group pulled out their phones. Several minutes later, the replies flooded in nearly simultaneously, forcing the elder tiger to hold up his paws for silence. "I will never understand why you cubs think that the most efficient way of communicating is to talk over each other." "Well, think about it Mr. Kendrick," Skyler replied, "If we all talk at once, then we don't have to wait for each other and it doesn't take as long." "True," Rio's mom put in, "But then we have to take more time to have you all say it again one at a time. Wouldn't it be easier to just do it that way to begin with?" "Naw, mom, you guys just have to learn to listen better," Rio said, grinning at the look his mom gave him. "So you're telling me that you understood all of that?" "Yup. Counter clockwise," starting with Zac who was sitting directly in front of him, Rio pointed at each cub in turn and rattled off the answers. "Zac's mom said that he already had permission to stay at Shayne's house so staying here works just as well. Shayne's dad was confused about the question, as Zac was supposed to be staying there, but if Zac's parents were okay with the change, he doesn't have a problem. Kaylie has stuff to do tomorrow, so she is going to pass, which brings us to Skyler, who got permission as long as he gets his jobs done. Oh, and Mom? You're probably going to be getting a phone call here in a minute." "How in the name of-" the elder tiger started, but was cut off mid question as his wife's phone rang. Rio's parents looked down at it in shock for a second or two before the tigress answered it. "Hello? Oh, yes, hi Allannah, how are you this afternoon? That's good.... yes, I was present for his half of the conversation..... The entire horde is in my kitchen as we speak, as a matter of fact, yes... Oh, it's really no trouble at all, they usually manage to keep each other out of trouble, though they do wreak havoc on my pantry... Oh, no, you don't have to do that, It's fine.... Well, if you insist, I'll send them over to take you up on that, thank you... To you as well.... Alright then, have a good weekend, goodbye." "See, mom?" Rio asked, chuckling at his mom's bemused look, "You just need to listen better. Pay attention to what each person is saying when they're still on the phone, and match it to what they say after they hang up. Simple. As to the phone call, before you ask, that one was easy. Whenever anybody stays over at Shayne's house, his mom grabs snack food for the night. My guess is, she had already bought without knowing about the change of plans, and figured we may as well get some use out of it. I knew she was going to call because Shayne got ahold of his dad when he called for permission, and his dad wouldn't have thought to offer it to you." "Well then." The tigress replied, "Okay, but how did you know she was going to call me and not your dad?" "That's easy, she doesn't like dad." "Because she doesn't like me." Father and son, after speaking almost in unison, caught each other's gaze and laughed, exchanging high fives. "You noticed to, huh Rio?" "Yeah, she's nice enough to you, but she would much rather deal with mom." "Wait, wait, wait," the tigress interrupted, "Why does Alannah not like you, and why am I the only person that seems not to know about it?" "As Rio said dear," the elder tiger said, feigning innocence, "You should probably learn to listen better." "Oh, no you don't. Don't try pulling that on me, buster-" "And that's our cue!" Shayne called, hopping to his feet, "Right, so we need to grab Zac's stuff from his place, the snackage from my place, and take care of Skyler's jobs. How many do you have this weekend?" "Three," the terrier replied, strapping on his helmet, "but one is only edging, so it won't take long." "Cool," Rio nodded, "Hey mom, can we borrow the lawn mower?" "Huh?" Startled out of the deep glare she was giving her husband, it took a second for the tigress to comprehend the question, "Oh, yeah, that's fine. What for?" "Me and Sky mow lawns and rake leaves and stuff to help pay for gear and competition entrance," Kaylie replied, "It's his turn this weekend." "If only my own son had that kind of responsibility..." "I keep trying to tell you mom, they're weird!" Turning back to the group, he continued, "So, Zac and Shayne, you guys hit your two houses and grab whatever we need. Us three will knock out the grass stuff while Skyler gets anything he needs from his house. Call if anything comes up, and we'll meet back here when we're done." "Actually, I tink I'm gonna stay here wit Kody." Toby said, leaning back against the counter. "You are?" The bunny asked, surprised, "You don't have to stay behind just cause of me." "No, I don't, but I noticed dat you are still movin a bit stiff and I taught dat I could teach you a few stretches and tings to get you movin better." "Oh, well, thanks." "Okay," Shayne clapped, "Now that that's settled, everybody have their mission?" he looked at his friends and, after getting a nod from each, clapped again. "Break!" There was a mad dash for the door as the cubs bolted towards their objective, Shayne and Zac sprinting down the road while Rio pulled the mower out of the shed. Skyler led his remaining two friends to the first house and after explaining the situation to the homeowner, left Shayne to mow the front and back lawns. After a quick detour to grab his own lawnmower and weed whacker, the terrier led Rio to the second house on the list. "Alright Rio," Skyler said as they approached the large house on the corner, "these guys are out of town right now, so we don't need to talk to them at all. Just mow the front and back, and head home. Oh, and the guy lets me use the pool in the back to cool off after mowing, so if you want to do that, go ahead." "He has a pool? Cool. Didn't bring my swim trunks though." "Oh, don't worry about it." The younger cub replied, pulling Rio up to the front porch and waving at a camera near the ceiling before rapidly typing on the control panel near the front door, "I never remember to bring mine either, so I just swim naked." "Really? Aren't you worried about the cameras?" "Naw, our parents meet with everybody before we can start mowing their lawn. When the dude said me and Kaylie could use the pool our dad asked if the pool was in camera range and the guy said no." As he was talking, a small white card popped out of a panel near the front door. Taking it, he handed it to Rio, "Even showed us the live feeds on his phone." "Hmm. Okay then," the tiger said, examining the card, "what's this?" "The code to open the gate to the back yard. That's why I waved at the camera. Dude's security system is cool! Every time anybody goes near a window or a door when he's not home he gets a message on his phone. He saw it was me and I told him I had a lot of houses today so you were helping me. He told the box thing to print out the current code so you could mow the back lawn." "Wow. That is kind of cool. Alright, guess I'll get to it. You'd better go finish the third one, see you back at my place." With a nod, the terrier grabbed his board and got a running start before jumping onto it and zooming off to fulfill his part of the plan. Pocketing the card, Rio headed back to the mower and cranked it to life. Forty five minutes later, having finished the front and side yards, Rio pushed the mower towards the back. Surveying the fence, he spotted the door, but couldn't find anywhere to enter the code or even the handle. After a few minutes, a soft whirring above his head caught his attention and he found himself snout to lens with another camera. "Umm... hi?" He waved uncertainly, and a panel slid open on the side of the house to reveal a keyboard and a small screen. After typing in the code and hitting enter, the entire section of the fence slid open. "Wow, now that's a gate." He pushed the mower through and stopped dead in his tracks. The back yard was near twice the size of the front, and though there was a moderately sized pool, there was also a bunch of trees he was going to have to mow around. "Why that weasley little..." he muttered under his breath, distracted from a potential rant by his phone going off. "Hey mate," Mike's voice rang through the speaker setting, "Just finished my house, you about done?" "Not even close," Rio groused, "I just finished the front, but the back yard is huge!" "What's the address?" the bear asked, laughing as Rio supplied the information, "That's the nicer side of town, no wonder the yard is huge. I'll bring your mower up and help you out, be there in fifteen." Shutting his phone, the tiger cub wondered over and sat under a tree to await his backup, watching the sun slowly sink towards the roof of the house. "Hey!" Mike called, shaking him from his revery, "How do you open the gate?" "Oh, hold on." Rio replied, hauling himself up and trotting over to the fence. He jumped and waved his arms over his head, causing the camera to swing to face him. An identical panel slid open, but before Rio could input the code a message popped up on the screen. A friend of yours? I do hope that young Master Rhys isn't leasing out my pool in my absence. He's my friend, yeah, Rio typed back, but Skyler's not just letting us use the pool. His mom won't let him come hang out until his lawn mowing jobs are done, and we're helping him finish them faster. Your yard is really big, so I called for backup. Is that okay? "What's taking so long?" Mike called from the front yard. "Hold on a minute, I'm arguing with the security guard." Rio replied, drawing a chuckle from his friend. Very well, I accept the conditions and salute your gallantry in aiding your comrade. As you are providing the same service as Master Rhys, you are entitled the same privileges, feel free to use the pool upon completion. The screen went blank, so Rio typed in the code and the gate slid open. "That was cool," Mike noted, letting out a low whistle upon seeing the yard, "You weren't kidding. Have you started yet?" "Nope," replied the tiger, "Didn't want to deprive you of any of the fun." "Aw, shucks, thanks. Now let's get this taken care of." Starting at opposite sides of the yard and spiraling in towards the pool, they managed to finish the lawn, and put all of the many lawn gnomes back approximately where they came from, in just over forty minutes. "Who in their right mind needs that many lawn gnomes?" Rio panted, sweat rolling down his muzzle as he leaned against a tree trunk. "I have a better question," Mike replied, equally out of breath, "Do you think the dude'd mind if we borrowed his pool?" "Nope, we actually have permission, matter of fact." Stashing the mower by the side of the house, Rio headed back towards the pool, sitting on one of the deck chairs and pulling off his sandals. "Few laps to cool off, then we should head home." "Works for me, you think any of the cameras around here can see us?" Mike asked, looking over at the house. "Skyler's dad seems sure they can't, so I'm gonna trust that." The tiger replied, pulling his shirt over his head and unbuttoning his jeans. After a deep breath to curtail his innate surge of nerves at being naked outside, Rio's jeans and boxers joined his shirt and socks on the deck chair. He looked up and laughed as he noticed that his friend's gaze was firmly on his cubhood. "Well? Don't just leave me hanging. Ha, hanging... Come on then!" He took a few steps back and got a running start before leaping halfway across the pool and landing with a massive splash. He swam underwater, silvery bubbles streaming from his nostrils, until he reached the opposite side and surfed in time to catch Mike in mid jump, sailing over the water. The bear dove with far more grace then his friend, barely causing a splash as he entered the water. Using his momentum, Mike cut through the water, not needing to kick his legs to reach the other side. He surfaced right next to Rio and draped his arms across the side, allowing his natural buoyancy to make him float to the surface. The nine year old's cubhood, completely undettered by the slight chill in the water, was at full mast and bouncing lightly on the surface of the water. "Well hello there," Rio laughed, reaching over to pet the slick warm length of his friend's tool, "Someone seems happy to see me." "Yeah, I can't take him anywhere," Mike replied, bucking his hips to make himself bounce higher out of the water, "He's got a mind of his own." "Nothing wrong with that, is there?" The tiger grinned and turned to mimic his friend's position, his own nethers rising to the surface. Unlike the bear cub though, the chill of the pool was having an effect on the tiger. "What's the matter, kitty cat?" Mike grinned, "Bit too cold for you? Well, that's a problem that I am happy to solve." The bear let go of the wall, sinking beneath the water. Maneuvering himself underwater, Mike pushed off the bottom just enough so that only his head was above water and Rio's legs were floating next to his ears. He opened his mouth wide and slowly exhaled, surrounding Rio's cubhood in moist, warm, air. The sudden change in temperature had the desired effect, and after a few more breaths, a pink tip began to peek from the tiger's sheath. As soon as it appeared Mike leaned forward and engulfed his friend's emerging dicklett, teasing the tip with his tongue and wrapping his paw around his own dick and pumping himself as he felt his friend's tool expand in his mouth. Rio groaned and laid his head back on the side of the pool as he started pumping his hips, the chill of the water making Mike's mouth feel that much hotter. Mike chuckled around the cock in his mouth as he felt Rio's hips start bumping against his muzzle, and began moving moving his head in opposing rhythm while swirling his tongue along the length of the tiger's dicklett. "Hah... hah... th... that is the strangest... feeling..." Rio panted, as his dick alternated between the heat of his friend's mouth and the comparatively arctic chill of the pool water. Feeling his own climax approaching, Mike tapped Rio's stomach a few times. When he had Rio's attention, he brushed the fingers of his free hand against the tiger's tailhole. "Yes.." Rio breathed, laying his head back again, "Oh, yes please." Not needing any further invitation, Mike pulled off of Rio's member and sank beneath the water. Tensing his legs on the bottom of the pool, he kicked with all of his strength and jumped upwards. Rio let out a startled yelp as he was lifted clean out of the water, but before he could say anything was speared hilt deep on Mike's cock as he hit the water again and was pushed back against the edge of the pool. "Unh... unh, hnhghh.." The nine year old grunted, overwhelmed by his best friend's dicklett pounding hard into his extra tight tailhole. He reached for his own cock, but Mike batted his hand away, shaking his head. "Not, yet, trust, me..." The bear grunted between thrusts, humping into his friend for all he was worth. Rio groaned and dug his claws into the fur on his friend's back, bouncing up and down in the cooling water as he rode the bear's cock and did his best to hold his own orgasm back. Within a few minutes, Mike gave one extra hard thrust and groaned into Rio's shoulder as he pumped his seed deep into the nine year old's tight tail hole. "I'll never get tired of that," Rio panted, "But what am I waiting for?" "I'll show you," the bear replied, but I don't want to leak into the pool. Help me out here, let's get to the grass." He kicked off the bottom as Rio pulled up on the wall and together they emerged from the water and rolled onto the deck. The tiger wrapped his legs around the bear's waist and rode him reverse piggy back until he was set into the grass and Mike pulled out, watching a steady stream of his cum leak into the fresh cut grass. "Okay, so my turn now, Rio said, "What are we waiting for?" "Exactly as you said, oh boyfriend of mine," Mike replied, dropping on to his hands and knees and offering his hole to his friend, "Your turn." "Oh, dude, no way!" Rio yelled, jumping to his feet, "Really? I've never done this before, do I just..." "Chill out mate," Mike laughed, "I've done it to you often enough, you've got the gist, and your instincts'll take over anyway. Now come on," he said with a wiggle of his hips, "We don't want the others missing us." Kneeling behind his friend, Rio lined himself up and pushed. His initial hesitance was immediately overcome by the amazing feeling of warmth and tightness as he penetrated the fourth grade bear's tailhole, and he bucked hard, hilting in one stroke. "Gnnhhmmff..." Mike groaned, as Rio pushed him down into the grass, "Wow... it's been a while, I forgot just how much I loved being on this side of things." "This isn't your first time?" Rio asked, slowly pulling out till only the tip of his cock was still in his friend. "Not by a long shot, but I'll tell you later, for now just fuck me!!" Rio did just that, hilting into the bear again and again, making the nine year old ursine howl into the grass as his little prostate was repeatedly pounded. In contrast to Mike's smooth and practiced thrusts, Rio's were wild and erratic, but what the tiger lacked in technique he made up for in enthusiasm, the force of his thrusts scooting his lover inch by inch across the lawn. Though it felt like an eternity, it took mere moments for the new feelings of being the dominant partner to get to the Tiger and soon enough he was shuddering on top of his best friend as he shot his seed into the fourth grader's rectum. "Wow...." he breathed, pulling out and rolling over into the grass. "Wow yourself," Mike grunted getting to his feet and offering a paw to his friend, "You might be better at that then I am. Now let's get dressed, we need to get back home." Accepting the assistance, Rio got to his feet a bit unsteadily and the two cubs held hands as they walked around the pool to their clothes. Reaching the chairs, Mike checked his phone. "Two missed calls and a text from Skyler, wondering what's taking so long," he reported. "Well, you can tell him it's his fault. He didn't tell me the yard was this huge."
"Also, we were swimming and lost track of time." Mike chuckled, relaying the message. A few minutes later, the two cubs were dressed and pushing the mowers down the road back to Rio's house, the sun setting behind them, making their shadows lengthen across the
