The Jack and the Filly

Saturday

~BEEPBEEPBEEPBEEPBEEPBEEPBEEP~

Claire's head snapped up in shocked surprise. Daniel who was snuggled up next to her with his head resting comfortably on her chest, barely stirred. The mare glanced over at the annoying clock, which read 8:25...and was still emitting the harsh alarm tone. Claire grumbled and shook Daniel.

"Danny?"

The only response that emanated from the snoozing donkey was a light snore, but he did not seem to be in deep sleep since he tightened the grasp of his arm draped across the large females mid section.

Claire probably could have easily shoved Daniel off of her, but she tried one more time, "Danny! Wake up you dozy donkey! C'mon! Reach over and smack the alarm."

Daniel finally stirred from his position and yawned before grunting, "Nnn-kay."

Reluctantly rolling away from his comfy position, he reached over to silence the alarm clock. The room became still and Dan yawned again before he rolled back over to his previous location.

Claire hugged him firmly and planted a kiss on his nose, "Thank you sweet stuff. I take it you forgot to turn that off? I would not imagine that you actually need to get up at 8am on a Saturday?"

"Yeah, I'm sorry about that. I guess it slipped my mind when we got here."

The mare just giggled softly and resumed her hug and began running her fingers through the donkey's mane. It was only a few minutes later when Dan was once again in a light snooze, a hint of a smile on his muzzle. Claire sighed and tried to sort out her feelings, but kept running her fingers through Dan's mane with those wonderful white stripes accentuating the grayish black of the rest of his coat. Many more minutes passed, but since she had been startled awake she could not settle back down again.

She attempted to extricate her body from under Dan, but it was proving to be more difficult than she would have thought. When she started to slide his head off her chest and onto his pillow, he mumbled a protest.

"Wher'you goin'?"

She spoke to him softly, "I'm going to get up and take a shower. I need to wash off before I can wear my clothes again." She stroked her fingers down his broad nose and patted his cheek. 'He is soo cute!' she said to herself as his response looked like a child who had been told they could not have any ice cream.

"Yeah I guess you're right. I suppose I should hop in there after you," Daniel said.

"Why not just join me?" Claire asked simply.

Dan chuckled and replied, "No can do babe, the shower is barely big enough for one person. We'd need lube to get the both of us in there, but then we certainly wouldn't be able to shower."

"Doh," Claire frowned. "Well, I still need to shower. You go ahead and snooze, I'll wake you when I get done."

Daniel smiled and sat up so he could kiss Claire, "Okay, I'll be here."

She smiled and ruffled his mane, "I know you will, stud."

It took a minute for Claire to find a towel, but when she did she selected the one out of the stack that was larger than the rest. Being such a large girl she needed an oversized towel just to be able to dry off sufficiently. She had washed her hair (both mane and tail) the morning before so she did not worry about washing them again. She was mainly concerned about the areas that had gotten a lot of attention last night, which was evident by the matted and unkempt fur she saw as she glanced in the bathroom mirror.

She looked herself over after taking off the jersey. She had to stoop slightly to look herself in the face, since the bathroom mirror only came up to about her chin. 'I can't believe things happened so fast last night,' she thought, 'normally I'd get to know a guy first.' Replaying the previous night in her mind, snippets of their conversations floated through her head. She remembered Daniel saying that he had not had much experience with girls, and she guessed that is what had subconsciously prompted her to be so forward.

She looked over the mare standing in the reflection. Her rust colored fur stood in contrast to her white creamy mid section. Her prominent FF sized chest jutting out and her pink nipples just barely poking through the downy fur of her breasts. Claire cupped the outside curve of her breasts and smiled as she remembered Daniel's awed compliment on the size of her tits.

After a moment of fondling herself, she looked down further to examine her nether region and make sure everything was a-okay. Especially since Daniel had been the biggest guy she'd ever taken. She had boasted about how she would be able to take him without any problem, but secretly Claire was not entirely sure at the time she would be able to. Although everything turned out fine and was quite pleasant, she still wanted to make sure the plumbing was not damaged.

Deciding not to risk sitting on the small sink (which was at just the right height for her to do so), she turned and lowered the toilet lid instead and sat her butt down. It was much lower, but she figured it would be a more stable seat. She pulled one of her knees up and spread her legs a bit to get a closer look at herself.

She could not help but grin when looking upon all the matted fur surrounding her mound, remembering the sheer amount of fluid that had been produced last night. She took her free hand and smoothed away some of the stray fur sticking to her labia and then she ran her fingers over her outer lips. It felt wonderful and she did not feel any outward signs of soreness. She spread the top cleft of her vagina with a finger on either side and looked at her plump protruding clitoris. Everything looked (and felt) fine, and she even winked a couple of times causing her clit to jut out significantly.

Satisfied with the outer inspection, she gently pressed her index finger into her snatch and explored momentarily, searching for any sore spots. She even risked a quick prod at the firm spot Dan had found when he slipped his hand into her last night. This was most likely her G-spot she thought, but since she had not explored that herself she did not know for sure. She did know that whatever the donkey had done to tickle that area sure did feel good, and she made a mental note to ask him to try it again.

Her thoughts strayed to the intimate moments she had shared with the donkey, and without realizing was stroking a couple of fingers into her moistening pussy. She moaned out of reflex, but quickly snapped out of her masturbation with a flush of embarrassment as she wondered what Dan would think if he heard her getting off in the bathroom. 'He'd probably want to watch,' she thought with a wicked grin. She briefly contemplated going and giving him another show, but dismissed it thinking that she would never get clean if she kept getting distracted.

Opening the shower, she gaped at how small it really was. She was unsure if she would completely fit in the small stall. The showerhead barely came up to her neck. She sighed dejectedly and turned on the hot water. Thankfully, the dorms had plenty of hot water ready and it only took a few seconds before Claire had the temperature set the way she liked it (hot).

She also said another small thanks that the shower head was designed for people with a lot of fur, producing thick powerful jets that could soak through thick coats and get to the underlying hide. Claire leaned against the shower wall and let the shower soak into her back and let the water cascade in a torrent off her long tail.

"Hmmmmm," she said with pleasure as the water caressed her like a lover. She loved the feeling of letting the fingers of water run all down her body, almost like the water were running fingertips across her flesh and muscles. She moved her tail back and forth causing the water to change its flow direction down her buttocks and under her tail...and between her legs.

Claire scrunched her eyes closed as the water ran its fingers across her full labia, before finding a path down her thighs and legs. She was trying hard not to get aroused, but was failing as her brain imagined it was Daniel running his tongue along her thighs. When the imagined Daniel was running this tongue across her rubbery pussy, Claire gave in to her urge.

She slid her hands down her stomach and cupped her crotch with first one hand, then the other. She flicked her finger across her clit, which was winking randomly out of her self-control. After a moment and several moans later, she turned around and now enjoyed the feeling of the showerhead caressing its warm fingers on her breasts. Her heat was building quickly, and she knew exactly where to rub for the most effect.

As the water cascaded and splashed across her chest, her nipples stood erect poking out of the cover of her soft fur and her right hand strayed to pinch and pull each of them in turn. Her left hand was busy stroking her clit between finger and thumb and she humped in sync with each stroke. She could feel the wave building inside her.

"Oohhhh...." she gasped out trying to be quiet, but she could not tell how load it was since the shower was so enclosed making every moan sound like it was amplified by ten. Her right hand abandoned her nipples and went straight to her crotch where she quickly buried three fingers in her quivering mound and began fingering with abandon.

She thrust her fingers in up to her knuckles as her snatch tightened around her fingers and she came. She just managed to stifle a squealing moan, and she flicked her sensitive clit a few more times before a final shudder racked her body. She stood breathing heavily as the water continued to trace its fingers across her chest and stomach.

After a moment or two, she shook her head and continued her shower. Taking her time to scrub the fur on her chest, crotch and inner thighs she sighed and wondered what the rest of the day would be like. It had been a while since she had dealt with urges this frequent and wondered if it was because of her attraction to Daniel. While she was rinsing off she came to the decision that she needed to tell him her feelings, whether the opportunity presented itself or not.

Claire emerged from the bathroom mostly dry, but still toweling her mane and neck. She saw that she might need a separate towel for her tail. Glancing over at the bed, she could clearly see the lump that was Daniel still snuggled under the covers. She shook her head before attempting to finish drying her mane.

She had finished drying as best she could, and wrapped the damp towel around her tail as she retrieved her articles of clothing from around the dorm room. When she leaned over the side of the bed to grab her skirt, the lump under the covers poked his head out and smiled with a yawn.

"Oh man, sorry about that. Guess I hit the snooze a few times. Are you all done?"

"Yeah," she replied.

As Claire stood up, Daniel noticed the towel she had wrapped around her tail, "Uh, did you use that towel to dry with?" he said pointing. She glanced at her rump and nodded, "Yeah, why?"

Dan laughed nervously, "Oh, uh...no reason."

Claire looked again and said, "What? Did I grab a dirty towel by mistake?"

Dan shifted his gaze, "Well, not exactly. I mean, it is clean but that is the only towel I have that is 'extra large' for when I...you know...uh, when I'm 'alone'?" Claire stood for a moment blinking before the meaning was understood.

"Oh!" she said with realization, and then "Oh," again with a big grin, "I see."

The donkey shrugged his shoulders and gave her a meek smile, "It is all I've got to keep from making a mess. Most of the time I just wait till I'm in the shower," he said matter-of-factly. Claire nodded and smiled back.

"Speaking of a shower, how about getting that cute butt of yours in there?" she said. Daniel nodded and made a move to walk past her into the bathroom, but not before she gave a playful swat to his behind.

"Try not to take too long in there, I'm getting hungry," Claire said to him and he clearly got the idea that she was talking about more than just food.

"Yes, dear," the donkey called over his shoulder as he closed the door.

Dan had to restrain himself during his shower because he could have easily fantasized about the shapely mare in the next room. But he did his best to focus and set aside those thoughts for a more opportune time, and finished up in just a few minutes.

He walked out of the bathroom with his towel around his waist and went to rummage through his dresser for a clean pair of briefs. Claire had finished dressing in her clothes from the night before and eyed him muttering an "Ooh baby!" as he dropped his towel momentarily to get adjusted into his briefs. Then he pulled out a pair of cargo shorts and jumped into them before asking her, "So you want to grab some breakfast? Larry's Diner is a couple miles down the road and they have pretty good pancakes."

"Ooo, pancakes! Haven't had that for breakfast in ages," Claire replied with enthusiasm. She picked up her handbag and fished out her phone. "Just let me check my messages and then we can go. I'm starving!"

Daniel laughed and nodded, and put on a loose t-shirt as Claire listened to her phone. After a moment, she snapped the phone shut and dropped it in her bag and said, "Okay, ready!"

"Cool. I guess you get to take a ride in the donkey mobile," Dan said locking the bolt on the dormitory room. "What kind of car is the 'donkey mobile'?" Claire asked. "Oh, just my crappy Camry, it's all I got. I hope my car is not too small for you, I don't have any friends as tall as you are," Dan said with a slightly worried look on his face.

Claire smiled and put her arm under his, "I'm sure it will be fine Danny, besides you said it is just down the road so even if I have to scrunch I can bear it for some pancakes!"

Daniel laughed and said, "Okay, let's get moving. I'm hungry now too!"

After the pair arrived at Dan's car, there were only slight adjustments needed for Claire to get her tall frame into the passenger seat. She just needed to recline the back a few clicks and she was comfortable even though her ears were hitting the headliner; she did not mind though.

A short bit later, Dan pulled into the parking lot and the two got a table after going inside. The waitress, a cute 20 something Collie, showed them to a booth and plunked down a couple of menus and said, "I'll be right back. I'm Becky, if you need anything just wave."

Dan said thank you and pointed out the pancake special to Claire who was overwhelmed at the breakfast selection. She was practically drooling when Becky returned with some water for them.

"Are you two ready?"

"Oh yes!" Claire said quickly, "I want these, and can I get the strawberry topping with some whipped cream?"

"Of course," Becky said with a smile. "What about you?" she said to Daniel.

"Um, I think I'd like the omelet with mushrooms and cheddar."

"Coming right up," she said and trotted off to put in the order and attend to the other tables in their area.

"At least it is not too busy for a Saturday," Dan was saying while glancing around. "I've been here on some weekends where the wait is 45 minutes."

Claire laughed, "Guess this place is popular?"

Dan nodded and took a sip of water, "Well, it can be. This diner is fairly close to campus, so it is a common occurrence for people to show up here after an all night party for some hangover food."

"I wonder how late that party went," Claire pondered. "Sally did not leave me a message, which means she is probably still passed out." The mare frowned.

"I'm sure she will call you if it is important. Besides, if you had stuck with her I probably wouldn't be eating breakfast with a beautiful girl now," Dan said and gave Claire a warm and sincere smile. She reached across the table and grasped his hand.

"Aw, that's sweet. But you're right, if I had gotten stuck at the party I would have never found out what a stud you are," she said with a toothy grin.

Dan was blushing at her blunt statement and coughed nervously, but she just giggled at his slight embarrassment. Claire patted his hand, "Relax Danny, I'm just teasing you." Just then, Becky brought over their side items and said, "I'll be back in a sec with the main plates."

The mischievous mare picked up a dollop of whipped cream on her finger and purposefully reached out and touched Daniel square on the tip of his nose. Then she seductively sucked the remains off the end of her finger glaring at the surprised donkey. The look she gave Dan caused him to shift in his seat, and he smiled and said, "Are you always like this?"

Claire shook her head in a 'no' and rose out of her seat enough to lean across the table and lick the blot of cream off Dan's nose. She leaned back in her seat just in time for the waitress to bring each of their plates.

"Here ya go, enjoy!"

The two said thank you and focused on consuming the tasty meal before them. After a few mouthfuls and several sounds of enjoyment from Claire, they engaged in small talk once again. They each compared notes about where they were in their plans for college and how long they expected it to take to reach their goal.

"I think I can get done in another two semesters, and then I'll start on my Masters. I'll probably have to intern at the same time to become a CPA, but eventually I'd like to have my own office," Daniel was commenting.

"That sounds like a good plan. I think one of the guys my dad knew was our accountant for a while, back when I still lived on the farm. He seemed to do pretty well for himself even if it was just doing taxes for the farmers," Claire replied.

"Sure, but I bet accounting is pretty boring compared to biology," Dan countered. "What made you want to go into that?"

Claire pushed another bite of pancakes onto her fork saying, "Oh, I dunno. Guess it is just something that I found interesting. Who would have known you could get a degree in studying plants and animals? Maybe I just have a natural knack for it, I was always the best farm hand when I worked for my parents during the summer. The animals never complained and I could always get a good crop of tomatoes." She shrugged and took another bite of her pancakes, which were rapidly disappearing.

They talked back and forth about their respective fields until they had both finished their meal and sat back satisfied. Dan was sipping his water and glancing out the window across the isle. When he squinted slightly and broke into a huge grin, Claire asked, "What's up?"

"Here comes Mike, and I'm guessing that girl he went home with," Dan said and lightly chuckled, "I did not expect to see him around until much later today."

Sure enough, the tiger roommate strolled in wearing dark sunglasses with the lioness on his arm. Mike scanned the dining area after the waitress had put their names down and noticed Daniel waving from the booth across the way.

Dan nodded towards Mike and said to Claire, "It looks like he wants to join us. Would that be okay with you? I can tell him we were getting ready to leave..."

Claire smiled and said, "Sure that would be fine. Maybe I can be properly introduced this time," and she laughed with Daniel remembering the interruption they had received last night when Mike stopped by to get some "stuff."

Daniel giggled and replied, "Cool." He stood up and motioned to Mike, "Mikey! Over here."

Mike waved and motioned to the waitress that he was going to join his friend and she waved them back. Daniel inclined his head over at Claire and gave her a 'sit over here' look. She nodded with a smile and slid into the booth next Daniel just before the other pair came over.

"Hey guys, how's it going? Uh, this is Jane," Mike said introducing the lioness he had met from the party.

"Nice to meet you," Jane said shaking hands with Dan and Claire.

"Oh, uh, this is Claire," Daniel said after Claire poked him in the ribs.

"Ahh, okay," Mike said shaking her hand and giving Daniel that big fang filled grin. Dan looked away distractedly, slightly blushing as he realized Mike knew exactly what they were doing last night.

"So, Claire," Mike was saying as he and Jane entered the booth, "I don't think I've seen you on campus. You just transfer?"

Claire cleared her throat replying, "No, I'm actually just visiting from out of town. My cousin Sally invited me out for the weekend, and I actually did not know the party was right next to campus."

"Cool, cool," Mike said.

"You wouldn't be related to Sally McAllister would you?" Jane asked.

"Uh, yeah that is my cousin. Do you know her? I'm sorry, but I don't recall her mentioning you," Claire replied.

Jane laughed lightly, "No she does not know me, but I know the guy she is seeing." She turned to Mike and said, "Remember that panther we ran into last night? He was with that chestnut mare? She was Sally."

"Oohh," Mike replied with a fuzzy expression evident that he did not remember whom Jane was referring to. Jane rolled her eyes at the tiger's reaction, but continued to Claire, "Yeah, I know Jason, the frat guy Sally is seeing. He is a total jock," she laughed.

During some small talk about life in general, the extra pair got their food ordered and brought out. Mike was cutting up his medium rare steak when he asked, "So what are you guys up to today? We were kind of thinking about hitting the canyon for a drive. Interested?"

Daniel looked to Claire for a response, and she shrugged back at him. "Sure, I guess. I do not have any solid plans, if you guys do not mind?" Mike grinned his toothy smile, "Sweet!" He gave Dan a quick wink and twitched his eyebrows. Dan meanwhile, had taken hold of Claire's hand under the table and squeezed when she agreed to come along.

Claire leaned over to whisper in Dan's ear, "Danny, can we go stop by my cousin's place real quick? I want to change my clothes." Daniel nodded and said to Mike, "Is it cool if we just meet you over at the dorm before we all head out?"

"Oh sure! Take your time. I'll give you a ring when we are ready if I don't see you before. We are going to stop off at the store and grab some sodas and a snack."

Daniel nodded, "Sounds good. Seeya in a bit then."

He and Claire departed the booth after leaving some cash to cover their tab. Daniel could almost make out Mike's comment as they were walking away, "Holy cow! Did you see how tall she was?"

Claire guided Daniel to her cousin's apartment, which was a few miles in the other direction of campus. He found a parking spot and followed Claire into the complex. She was pointing out that her cousin had been living here for a couple of years, "I think Sally plans to stay here till she is done with school."

"Uh, huh," Dan said automatically his mind more focused on the filly's rump as she walked ahead of him. He found her shapely figure hypnotizing as her tail swished back and forth with every step, and he could practically see her firm hindquarters ripple with strong muscles under her skirt. He was so enthralled that he nearly ran into her when she stopped in front of Unit #5.

"Here we are," she said and unlocked the door. Dan managed to tear his gaze away from her figure as she entered and motioned him inside. He looked around briefly as Claire commented, "It ain't much, but at least Sally has a fold out for me to sleep on. Better than the floor I guess." She disappeared into the back room saying, "Let me go grab my bag, back in a sec!" but not before giving him a quick peck on the nose.

Dan was idly swishing his tail and looking over the typical college student's dwelling when Claire brought her small suitcase back and plopped it open on the fold out couch she used as her bed.

"I don't have a lot of stuff to choose from. Do you think we will be going anywhere after the drive?" she asked Daniel as she picked through her selections.

"I'm not sure. I'm betting that Mike will want to take Jane to this popular steak house that is a frequent stop for people that like to go driving out that way though. He has mentioned taking dates there on several occasions," he replied and spied some of the stuff Claire was shuffling through. His crotch stirred briefly as he saw her pick up a frilly black lace pair of panties before she stuffed it back into the suitcase.

He grinned as he thought back to the previous night when he discovered that the mare was not wearing underwear, and wondered what made her be so bold. Claire had since moved on to picking up a different skirt and was holding it against her waist as she mentally checked to see what else would go with it. Daniel leaned over and retrieved the black lace underwear.

Claire giggled and said, "I don't think those will fit you silly."

Dan grinned and held them up to her backside to get a better mental image of what she would look like with them on, and he muttered a soft "Oooh." Claire noticed what he was doing, and thrust her butt out at him. "I take it you like those?"

Dan nodded and grinned, "Me likey!"

Claire laughed and resumed her search for a top that would go nicely with the skirt she held. She had judged that it would be another nice day and decided to go with a casual, light yellow shirt. Turning to the donkey still admiring her backside, she snagged the underwear out of his hand and said, "Let me put those on before you hurt yourself. Be back in a sec."

Dan replied, "Alrighty," and sat down on the couch next to Claire's clothes. The filly swished her tail as she turned and ducked into the bedroom to switch outfits. Dan was overcome with curiosity and took a second to dig through her bag, looking at the several articles of clothing she had brought with her. His hand bumped into something solid at the bottom of the bag and his fingers closed around the object. When he lifted up the firm but squishy dildo, he quickly looked to see if Claire was still busy.

Seeing that the door was still mostly closed, he briefly extracted the dildo from the clothing. Dan was surprised at the size of the fake stallion dick he was holding, but could clearly see that it was not nearly the size of his own equipment. He estimated that the dildo was at least 18 inches long and he could just manage to get his fingers all the way around the shaft. He let out a soft chuckle as he quickly put the companion back at the bottom of the bag. Just as he covered it back up, Claire emerged from the bedroom and strutted up to him in her fresh skirt and top.

Dan was wearing a grin as wide as her shirt top was stretched, and wondered how she had managed to squeeze her breasts into the form fitting clothing. He could easily see her budding nipples straining against the cloth and realized that she did not wear a bra. His gaze lingered a moment longer before he looked at her hips sporting a dark brown pleated skirt that was a little shorter than the one she had on last night.

The mare sauntered in front of him and turned around saying, "What do you think?" Dan was wearing a dreamy smile as he eyed her up and down and she laughed in response. Claire straddled the donkey sitting on the couch and practically pushed his muzzle into her breasts.

"Hi, donkey," she said in a cutesy schoolgirl voice.

Daniel grinned up at her and clutched her hips, "Hi, horsey," he smiled.

She smiled down at him and shook her chest causing her boobs to bounce in front of his nose. He was slowly sliding a hand up her thigh under the skirt and "mrrred" when his fingers found the lacy underwear, "Ooh, sexy!" Claire nodded and bent down to give him a wet kiss. The two continued to smooch for several minutes before Claire let Daniel up off the couch, not that he minded being pinned under the frisky mare.

Daniel ran his hand over the curve of her hindquarters as Claire went to work packing up her bag. "I saw that you have underwear in there, like the ones you are wearing today. I'm just curious why you weren't wearing any last night?"

"Oh, yeah," she said a little embarrassed. "Yesterday, Sally made it a point of telling me that she was not going to wear any for going to the party (she is a little bit of an exhibitionist anyways), and I guess she sort of challenged me to do the same."

"Ahh," was all Dan could say.

"Believe me, I'm not usually the type to do that sort of thing and I had no idea that I'd end up spending the night with you," she continued and gave Dan a grin. "But this time I'm definitely wearing them cause I could tell it was turning you on," and this time she winked and swished her tail at the donkey.

Claire finished packing away her clothes and briefly straightened up the couch before the two departed and were heading back to Daniel's dorm. By this time, it was already approaching noon and Dan said, "You want to grab a bite before we get over there?"

She smiled and ran her hand over Dan's mane, "Whatever you want, stud."

Dan nodded and took a detour to a Jack in the Box that was a few blocks from campus. They both ordered a meal and sat to once again pick up some of their conversation threads. They talked about nothing in particular, but each was feeling a stronger bond forming between them. Dan thought to himself that he felt very comfortable with Claire, and was really glad that he had met her.

He got the impression that Claire had similar feelings by the way she would hold his hand and smile, just content to share time with him. This was not exactly new territory for him, since he had gone on a couple of dates in the 2 years he had been attending this college, but something felt different this time. He was momentarily lost in thought when Claire squeezed his hand.

"I want a milkshake, but I don't think I can drink the whole thing. Want to share?"

Dan smiled at her and said, "Yeah that would be nice."

She smiled back and hopped up saying, "Okay! I'll go grab one."

When she returned a moment later with the large vanilla shake topped in whipped cream, she was already sucking away at the straw. Dan laughed at her and poked her in the belly, "You really do like whipped cream don't you?"

She gulped and grinned back, resuming her seat. "Yeah but it's not the only type of cream I like." Dan giggled and took the shake after she took another gulp. Sampling the shake he made a sound of enjoyment, and the two took turns consuming the dessert until there was nothing but the cherry left.

Claire upended the cup into her mouth and sucked on the cherry. Then, quite impulsively she grabbed Daniel and pressed her muzzle to his giving him a passionate kiss, during which she forced the cherry she had been sucking on into his mouth. The donkey was taken by surprise but only for a second and enjoyed the unique kiss. The mare broke the kiss with an audible "smack" and sat back in her chair watching him chew on the cherry that had been in her mouth a moment before.

"Whoa," Daniel said, "You are one frisky filly."

She simply shrugged and grinned back at him.

A short time later the pair left the restaurant and pulled up to the campus. They chatted a little bit on the walk back to the dorm room. Daniel was a little distracted as he was finishing his last comment to Claire about parking on campus, and did not notice the tie hanging from his doorknob. This was supposed to be the "signal" to the other roommate that the room was "occupied". Daniel clicked open the lock and opened the door.

As the door swung open, the donkey and horse were presented with a fantastic scene of the lion and the tiger getting busy on Mike's bed! The two were so wrapped up in their activities that they almost did not notice the open door and the equines watching them with surprised expressions. Mike had his head thrown back growling and was hammering his hips into Jane who had her tail stuck up in the air and yowling in passion. Just as Daniel regained his composure and made a motion to grab the door and close it, Mike make a loud growling-snarl as he bucked his hips into the lioness and clutched her hips as tight as he could. Jane yowled and mewed as her thick tail flicked forcefully back and forth. Only about 10 seconds had passed, but there was no doubt that the equines had seen the felines in full view, and the felines knew they been seen.

Claire let out a surprised but humorous, "Whoops!" and as Dan had nearly managed to close the door again, he made the briefest eye contact with Mike who flashed him that predator's grin and shrugged. Dan shook his head and chuckled at his roommate's antics. "Heh, that is Mike for you."

A few minutes later the tiger and his grin poked out of the door and everyone laughed. When the mare and donkey entered the room, Jane was sitting on the bed, clothed this time, and was blushing a deep crimson through her fur. But she seemed in good spirits about the incident and Dan turned back to Mike.

"Dude, I'm so sorry about that. I totally did not see the sign on the door."

Mike clapped Daniel on the shoulder and said, "Meh, don't worry about it. Guess that is payback from last night, eh?" The tiger turned back to the two girls in the room, each sitting on their respective counterpart's bed and said, "Uh, excuse us for a sec ladies," before ushering Daniel out into the hallway. The girls smiled and looked at each other waiting for the boys to leave so they could engage in girl-talk. Soft giggling could be heard as Mike closed the door.

"What's up?" Daniel asked, already having an idea of what Mike wanted to discuss.

"You think your girl would want to go on a double date tonight?" the tiger asked with a note of hopefulness in his voice. Dan laughed lightly and said, "Dude...you saw what she was wearing, right?"

Mike chuckled and replied, "Of course I saw! Man, she is a hottie! I'm glad you finally hooked up with someone." Mike almost had a note of pride in his voice, but he continued, "I want to take Janie out to the Rusty Horseshoe, but I'm not a hundred percent she will want to go. So if I ask you in front of the girls, can you play along?"

Daniel nodded, "Yeah, I think Claire would like to go as well. Let's go ask them."

As the guys opened the door again, Claire was now sitting next to Jane on Mike's bed and the girls' laughs died to a secretive whisper as they finished their conversation. Mike crawled over the bed and sat up behind Jane, "You ready to go for a drive?"

Jane nodded with a smile and said, "Yeah, it will be good to get some fresh air." Claire was nodding as well, which made Dan smile with joy.

"How about dinner afterwards? It can be my treat?" the tiger flashed his big grin and attempted to give Jane his best cute pussycat eyes. The lioness giggled and rubbed her cheek against Mike in a soft purr.

"Can we invite Claire and Daniel too?"

"Of course!" Mike purred back.

Dan grinned at Claire and made a 'look at those two' gesture. She grinned back and pulled the short donkey over her way and stood up. She took his face in her hands and leaned down to kiss him. After a moment, the donkey and mare were kissing heavily and did not notice the feline pair watching and giggling softly when Mike squinted his eyes at Jane and made an 'aw cute' expression at her.

Mike coughed politely and said, "We should get going."

Daniel was lost in a haze of bliss and took a few seconds before his senses returned. "Uh, right. Ready when you are." He took Claire's hand and led her out into the hallway. The mare shared a knowing glance with the lioness as she passed the felines wearing a broad grin. Mike batted at Jane's tail as she stood up and said, "Let's rock!" before jumping up to join the rest in the hall.

It was already 2pm by the time the foursome had piled into Mike's car, an old white Mercedes convertible he had received as a gift from his dad when he moved to college. It only took Mike a moment to put the top down, since driving around with girls was a favorite past time of his. Dan and Claire hopped in the back seat, while Jane took the passenger seat up front with Mike. "Alright kids, next stop the canyon!" he yelled out as he sped out of the parking lot, the wind whipping through their fur. Caught up in the moment the passengers yelled out in excitement, "Whoohooo!"

It took Mike about 30 minutes to reach the canyon off ramp and they were glad the traffic was light. Exiting the freeway, he took a left and before long the car was winding its way through the canyon turns at a leisurely but brisk pace. Claire had a huge grin plastered on her face and was loving the feeling of the wind making her mane stream away from her like a flag blowing in the breeze. Even though because of her height her nose almost poked out above the level of the windshield, she was thoroughly enjoying herself. Dan laughed along side her and snuggled up with her, enjoying her amusement.

Mike and Jane were chatting away animatedly in the front seat as more time passed by and they cruised through curve after curve. A short bit later, the curves became a bit milder as they descended further. Mike glanced in the rear view mirror and grinned behind his sunglasses as he got a quick peek of Daniel smooching Claire in a deep passionate kiss. The pair had their eyes closed and were focused solely on each other, only parting lips to shift and adjust their orientation before resuming.

Mike grinned over at Jane and jerked his head towards the back seat. Jane looked questioningly and glanced over her shoulder to see what the other two were doing. She turned back to the tiger with a seductive, 'I want that' kind of look on her muzzle. The lioness reached over and ran her hand up the inside of the tiger's thigh, and he grinned back and blew her a kiss. Mike pressed his foot on the accelerator a touch and the car sped down the road towards their destination.

About half an hour later, Mike was pulling the car into one of the small park-like turnouts along the route, which had a good look out across the valley. Dan and Claire had momentarily stopped making out in the back seat and the mare was glad for the opportunity to get out and stretch her legs. The car was parked under a shady tree and the passengers all got out and flexed and chatted about how nice the day was turning out.

Mike popped open the trunk and grabbed a soda. "Anyone want a drink?"

Jane snagged one and popped the top, taking a long swig, "Ahh!"

Daniel handed a soda to Claire, before taking one himself. She smiled a thank you and took a drink as well. Dan took her hand and walked with her over to the edge of the look out. "Good view," he said and took a drink. Claire bent down and laid her head on Daniel's, and the two smiled while taking in the scenery.

Click!

Jane giggled a few paces away and held up her digital camera to show Mike the picture she had just taken of the pair standing at the railing. "Those two are so cute together. This picture should be named 'The Jack and the Filly'."

Mike purred in her ear and replied, "Yeah. I'm really glad Dan is enjoying himself. I haven't seen him with a girl in a long time, I was starting to get a little worried." The tiger stroked Jane's tail and commented, "They look like such a mismatched pair since she towers over him, but I guess they enjoy each others company." Jane purred back at Mike and said, "I enjoy your company."

The felines purred with each other for a few minutes, before Jane grabbed Mike's hand and led him over to the railing as well. Claire and Daniel were now holding each other's waist.

"Claire, would you mind taking a picture of me and Mikey?" she called over to the other pair.

Claire momentarily left Dan's side and walked over to take the camera Jane held out. "It's auto focus, so just point and click."

"'Kay," she said and took a couple of paces back.

Jane was clutching Mike's arm and wore a huge grin at the camera. Mike smiled his toothy grin still wearing his sunglasses. Click! Claire paused briefly to look at the picture on the view screen before handing the camera back to the lioness.

"Thanks!" Jane said as Claire rejoined Dan. Dan took a sip of his soda and smiled at the pretty mare. "You girls seem to be getting along pretty good."

Claire laughed and replied, "Yeah, well we have a few things in common."

Dan joined in the laugh and prompted, "Oh yeah? Like what?"

She smiled and fluttered her eyelashes at him before replying, "Well, we both ended up getting to spend the day with sexy studs like you guys." She trailed a finger over Dan's collarbone and down his chest, bringing her finger up under his chin.

Dan grinned and joked with her, "Oh, so she thinks I'm a stud?" and puffed out his chest and flexed his arm. Claire jabbed an elbow into his stomach playfully causing his breath to whoosh out of him. "Oh, sorry. You meant that you think Mike is a stud?" Dan said continuing the joke.

Claire smirked at the donkey and hooked a finger in the waistband of his shorts and pulled him close. "You are the only stud I'm interested in," she said being more than half serious. She locked eyes with him, and Daniel could see something there that he had not seen from any of the other girls he had known. She turned to walk away and pulled his hand along with her. "Come on, let's go for a walk."

Dan started to mention that they should tell the other pair, but noticed that the felines had already taken a spot on a bench under the tree and were making out. He turned back to catch up with the mare and followed by her side.

Neither one really had any idea where they were headed; they just felt a need to find a secluded spot. After rounding a bend on the dusty path, Claire pulled Daniel through a break in the hedge and found a small patch of grassy ground. Deeming the location sufficient, she pulled him down to sit next to her. The donkey happily joined her and briefly took in their surroundings before finding the mare nuzzling his neck.

Daniel sighed happily and stroked her flowing mane as she cuddled up next to him. Before long they were kissing again, each running their hands over the others shoulders or face. Claire pressed her kiss into Daniel practically forcing him to lie down on the grass. He did not mind at all.

After a few minutes, the mare broke off their kissing session and laid her head across Daniel's chest. She draped her free arm around his waist and sighed. They lay in this position for several moments, Claire listening to his strong heartbeat and Daniel stroking her ear softly.

Several more minutes passed by in silence when Claire spoke in a soft hushed voice, "Danny?"

He stroked her ear again and replied in an equally soft voice, "Yeah?"

She seemed to having a hard time finding words to say and hesitated, "I..."

Daniel stroked her ear some more before saying, "What is it sweetie?"

"I think..." she hesitated some more. "I think that I..." she tried to say again and let out a shuddering sigh. Daniel reached down and squeezed her shoulder to him and was about to ask what was wrong when he felt a distinct dampness on his chest. 'Was she crying?' He thought. He ran his other hand across her cheek and confirmed that there were a few tears on her face. Daniel squeezed her again with both arms, "What is the matter Claire?" he asked with sincerity.

She sat up slowly forcing her way out of his embrace and turned her face from him. He could see her shoulders shake and though he did not know what was troubling her, still felt a knot in his gut. He placed a hand on her back as he sat up, "Please tell me what is wrong?"

She sniffed and quickly ran her hands over her eyes before turning back to him. "I'm sorry Danny, I don't know what got into me. I'm usually not like this," she said sniffing again and clearing her throat. She looked at him with her red eyes and gave a half-hearted chuckle. She chided herself softly, "Way to go Claire, cry in front of the new guy." Dan smiled genuinely and smoothed a hand over her ears and mane.

"Is there anything I can do?" he asked.

She giggled a little more lightly now and said, "Probably, but there is something I have to tell you."

Daniel held his smile and said, "Okay."

She sniffed one last time and grasped both his hands as she turned to face him fully. "Daniel, you are such a caring person I've never met anyone like you. You remember I was going to tell you something last night?" she said nervously.

He just nodded and waited patiently.

"Danny, I think I'm in love with you," she said breaking into a somewhat embarrassed grin and squeezed his hands.

Daniel smiled back and replied, "Are you sure?"

Claire nodded slowly. Daniel reached up a hand and stroked her cheek affectionately saying, "My sweet mare. I have some pretty strong feelings of affection for you too, but I'm not going to call it 'love' just yet. Do you understand what I'm trying to say? I do care about you, that is for sure but there is more to my past. I do not want to say the words until I know it for sure. I hope that makes some kind of sense?" She nodded and seemed to understand his sincerity, even if it was not exactly what she wanted to hear.

He shifted closer to her and embraced her in his arms. "You are such a passionate person, Claire. I'm really glad that I met you." She returned the hug and cradled her neck around his.

"I hope you don't think I'm just a crazy chick that likes to jump in the sack," she said with a hint of humor in her voice, but Dan could tell that she was slightly wounded he had not repeated the words back to her. He stroked her back comfortingly and replied, "No, of course not. I think it is pretty obvious we are attracted to each other. I want to try and explain if you give me a chance?" She just nodded and squeezed the donkey. After a brief moment, he continued.

"Several years ago when I was still at junior college, I met this jenny in my history class and we became study buddies. After a while I started seeing her outside of study time and we ended up dating. That was probably the first time I had ever had a 'relationship' that lasted more than just a couple of weeks." Daniel continued to stroke Claire's back as she listened.

"After a few dates, I ended up back at her place and we fooled around a bit. Never did make it to home base, but I was happy and she seemed to be happy as well. I thought I was falling in love with her, and I even told her so." Daniel sighed before going on. "The end of the semester came shortly after, and about a week later I called her up to see about another date (hopefully ending in some more fooling around). She told me that she was busy, and I let it slide thinking that we'd just hook up the next weekend."

"Well, I went with a friend to one of those parties where friends who are friends of friends invite people and you only end up knowing the person you came with," he laughed dryly. "While I was wandering around the house, I saw Leslie making out with a Mustang guy I had seen from campus. I was crushed, but when I confronted her about it a few days later she just told me flat out, 'Sorry, kid but I never said I loved you. I just needed your help with the history final'."

"I have always taken that lesson to think about what I say to others. I usually do not share my private feelings with many people, and saying the words carries a lot of trust and emotion. I just want to make sure I believe myself before I say those words to you. I believe that saying it without meaning it just an insult. I hope you can understand that?"

Claire smiled to herself and closed her eyes as a tear of happiness this time rolled down her cheek. Sitting up she gave him an affectionate kiss. "You are such a sweet guy, Daniel. Thank you for explaining your feelings to me." She once again gave him that warm smile that was like the shining sun breaking through storm clouds.

"I admit that I've said 'I love you' when I did not truly mean it. But this time," she said pressing her cheek against his, "I know I mean it." He nodded and replied, "I know Claire, I know, and it means a lot to me."

The two sat hugging each other for a long time just breathing in each other's scent, content to be held by the other. The sun had gotten a bit lower and the light was turning gold as the shadows lengthened around them. Dan broke their embrace reluctantly.

"Maybe we should be getting back to Mike and Jane?"

Claire nodded and stood, helping Daniel up as well before the two strode back down the path to the lookout hand in hand.
