Army of one (open to one woman)

BEing a guy and she said all of that, I wanted to make so many innuendo jokes, but decided against it. It was starting to become second nature and I didn't want to be that guy that was all sex, as much as I enjoyed it with Amanda, it couldn't be the sole focus of this new relationship. Let out a sigh and looking at the blue sky, "Yeah, I could see that, but that's two different zones. We'll have to do one or the other first. Seeing as we're near Colorado, going to do some skiing might be easier at the moment than going all the way to California or Florida, and I don't want to go to Florida. That's where all the crazy people are right now!"

Reaching the center doors for the barracks I opened the door for her and we walked in. The place was quiet. Surprisingly. And we headed up stairs and our heads were on a swivel the whole time.
 
I kept quiet as we walked into the barracks. I didn't want to alert anyone to a female presence and put Ryan at risk of another door to door search. That guy was too much.

I thought about the prospect of taking a weekend in Colorado. That could be fun. It would also be some good time spent away from the all consuming Army life we were in. Sometimes it was good to get away just to recharge. If I could manage that with out my family moaning about when the next time I was going to visit.

Well, no Sgt McNosy, so we were doing good!
 
Swiping my card we hustled inside and closed the door. My roommate was gone. Good. And we didn't have any sign of the sergeant. Going into my private room and shutting the door I teased her and kissed her again and squeezed her ass. Now the urge came back to push her up against the wall, shove my tongue down her throat, and thrust my hand into her pants and finger that tight pussy, but I couldn't do it. We had to stay focused and I didn't want to give us away that quickly.

Turning on the computer and pulling out the chair, I sat down. "Let's just see what kind of hotels they have available..." I was picturing something like a cabin on top of a snow covered mountain where we would suffice on hot cocoa for awhile, isolated, and we could be out there for at least a week or two. Typing down what I wanted I pulled up several such places all in a vast array of prices and amenities. "Wow" I gasped looking at them. Most of them were expensive and all of them were seasonal places.
 
I leaned over his shoulder as he brought up all the places centralized to the mountain areas. Yep. It was completely out of season for what I was looking for. Guaranteed by November, the snow would be back. But November was a long time from now. The only place that would have real snow would be the arctic. I laughed under my breath.

"Well, skiing might not be in the cards, but getting out of dodge and to a cabin might still be an option. Maybe some fishing?" I asked.

I reached over him and typed in "Cabin Rentals" then pressed enter. A new series of listings came up.

"How far do you want to get away to?" I asked him.
 
"I don't want to hear banjos, but someplace where it's just us for awhile. I wouldn't mind neighbors, you know, in case something happens, but I want some alone time," looking at her out of the corner of my eye. Using the mouse I scroll through the listing. They were all over the place; some in Colorado, Nebraska, northern Arizona. I wanted some place that was green and a mild climate. and the cabins in Colorado were quite large and expensive to say the least. "Wow. This one here, for two bedrooms, for just one night is $250!"

That was too much for just a humble private like myself. "I'll keep looking." Going a little further there was a listing to one small cabin beside a creek that promised good salmon. "Ooooh!" clicking it. It was tiny. Maybe 800 square feet, but it had a stove, fireplace, fridge, and an ice box and was near a small town. "Hmmm" looking at Amanda, "What do you think?"
 
I wasn't particularly impressed by the $250 a night "luxury" cabins people raved about. I could do more with my money.

"It's small... probably have a couple of mosquitoes out there for neighbors. Looks like a perfect place just to get away, don't you think?" I asked. "Maybe we need to check it out."

I could already hear the silence and the crickets and frogs suddenly invading that silence with their song.
 
"Okay" clicking the link. I was taken to a small website where family that owned a series of these cabins around their rather large expanse of property. They had photos showing the cabins inside and out. Appeared to be well maintained with annual inspections as wells as good reviews. On a scale of one to five on yelp this place had a 4.3. Not bad at all. Most of the complaints were about the weather during the winter, how the fireplace wasn't enough. If it snowed heavily then they would be stuck. There was no internet but there was a single land line. Hmmm. Seemed to be perfect place for us. Now I was eager to go through with it.
 
I watched over his shoulder as he surfed through the website. It was promising. I had some leave built up and there was nothing exciting going on. I wondered if they'd let me go for a few days?

"Think they'd let you take a little leave?" I asked him. The worst case scenario, we'd take a long 4 day weekend and have a few days to ourselves.
 
Scratching my head and pondering, "I'm not sure. I can't remember how much leave time I have saved up, but I can try, but if that doesn't work then we can try for the Labor Day weekend or another long weekend," taking the mouse and clicking on the calender it pulled up the current month and the next month as I started to look at what was on the docket. Aside from the five day work week there was nothing for me, but I didn't tell that to my sergeant, otherwise he would put me on a work detail or worse yet; CQ duty. "Let's see what we can work with because I want to go," leaning back with the head and staring up at Amanda with a beaming smile, "It's nice to get away, don't you think?" though my vision of her face was partially obstructed by her breasts. I didn't mind.
 
"Yes! Let's do it. I just have to clear it with my section. We can't have everyone gone all at the same time. My squad leader isn't unreasonable, so I should be good," I answered, leaning over and kissing his forehead.

"What do you think you want to do when we get out there?"
 
Smiling devilshly there were somethings that I wanted to do to her where her wailing wouldn't get us into trouble with Sergeant McNosy, but I didn't want it to be all sex. I cared about Amanda too much to have it all soiled with sex. "We can go hiking out there," bucking my eyebrows, "and fishing. But i'll have to get a license. That shouldn't be too hard. I bet there are stores out there that sell them. I haven't been fishing in a long time. We'll have to get rods and tackle for that. And we can go into the small town and see what they have out there. I mean, there are a ton of things that we can do, and we'll alone, most of time," smiling back up at her.
 
I looked at him, impressed.

"I like where you're mind is going, but we'll need a couple more things than just the fishing rods and tackle. We'll probably need food and lots of bug repellent!" I laughed.

"Still! I love the hiking idea too, so a couple camelbaks and we're golden" I added.

Wow. Peace and quiet, just him and me? Was it even possible?
 
"Sounds great" I smiled, "I'll have to go talk to my sergeant and probably sign paperwork, but I bet if I can sweet talk him then I could get out of here. But, how can we get there? It's going to be a few hours travel and I don't have a vehicle. We could rent one, you know, like a truck to get us into the mountains. Be better than a two wheel sedan." Taking a small pad of paper beside the computer screen I began to jot down a long list of things that we would need. My camelback was in the closet, it was a one liter version, but it was better than using canteens. "For the hiking, maybe we should take some MREs".
 
MRE's? I gave him the "Yuck!" face. Still, a meal was always better on the trail than it was on the range. I couldn't argue with that.

"Maybe. As for the car, we have a rental place not too far up the street. Since you want something more durable, I can arrange for a truck or at least an SUV with all wheel drive that we can get around in. I'm calling shotgun!" I said.

Clothes. We'd need clothes, so we'd have to bring a couple of bags with us. "Something you didn't put on that list... clothes?" I laughed again.

Yes, I think this was going to be a lot of fun.
 
"Right" I chuckled writing down clothes and putting a line underneath it. "So, we have the cabin, a car rental, clothes, MREs and other food, water, camelbacks, maybe some hiking books, rods and tackle..." tapping the pencil to my chin I wondered if I was missing anything. Looking at the cabin, they said that they keep a ready supply of fresh wood for each cabin. The more I thought about it, the more I was getting excited, a chance to get away from it and be with Amanda. All the fun we were going to have. It was going to cost a lot, sure, and we would have to be covert about it so that no one else in the unit hears about it, including McNosy, because it was against the Regs, but damn I was getting eager the more I thought about it.
 
"Leave form."

"I think that's about it. We can get most everything together. I have a prius we can drive around to get everything we need. I just don't drive if I don't have to. These people around here don't pay attention to the road. They're too busy wrapped up in everything else. I almost got hit twice the last time I went out, and the last time it was because ole dude was going from across the street at the barracks to the other side of the street to formation!"

I sat back down on his bed as Ryan continued to look through the website. A weekend away! I couldn't believe it. But for today, we were still here and there was no sign of trouble. I relaxed.
 
"This is going to be great" I said turning at the waist and looking back at her, "A whole week of just you and me," before I smiled again, "At least out there no one can hear you scream," winking before going back to the computer screen and trying to calculate the prices. The rental place on base had cut rate deals but they were always swamped and it was usually the officers that got the best vehicles, but I pulled up what they had to offer and they did have a Ford truck available. Yes! The cost for the cabin, for a week, would also be pricey. For a week it came out to $607.60 including taxes! Gritting my teeth a bit I look at my bank account. I could afford it, but what came next would be finding the right date. "I can't book anything until we can get a confirmed date. But, once we do then we can do that."
 
I looked at the bottom line. That was pricey for one person to shoulder and we hadn't even gotten everything else yet.

"I'll chip in half so it doesn't bite so hard. Besides, it's not just you going out there."

I ran my fingertips through his short hair lightly. "We'd better get the leave approved before we go much further. We don't want to get caught in a no refund deal and have the leave fall through.

I didn't see leave get turned down too often, but there were times where it could be.
 
"Yeah, you're right," earmarking each of the pages and clicking off the internet. Now everything was saved and can be pulled up when we're ready. With Amanda chipping in half of it then that was less that I had to worry about, but even then it was going to be high as the cabin alone was over six-hundred not counting the rental and the licenses we would have to get and the gas. Boy, it was going to be worth it to get to the cabin, at least, I hope it would be.

"Still, a whole week together. Think about it; all alone, just you and me, we have the hiking and the fishing and i'll be they'll have other activities there as well, but what else can we do when it's just you and me?" rising up from the chair and going over to her and sitting beside Amanda, a smile still on my lips. It was clearly obvious what I meant. Even a blind man could see it.
 
"Oh I am sure between the two of us we can find a number of things to do that don't include the television."

I knew where he was going with it, and it would be nice not having to worry about everyone else around us. I hoped he wouldn't discover the invention of the gag. I laughed inwardly.
 
I wanted to kiss her, to finish what we had started, but something was telling me not to because it would be the snowball effect and it would go from a kiss to fondling and then fucking and then to screaming and trying to hide the evidence from Sergeant McNosy, and I didn't want to face him, but at this distance, mere inches where I could see the pours on her skin and the gentle rise and fall of her chest with each breath, it was a real conflict in my head and heart. Pursing my lips and moistening my mouth I tried to put my mind on other things.
 
Now I couldn't wait for tomorrow to get here. My first stop would be to submit my leave request. That is, after I had my round at PT as norm. Tomorrow we were out in the middle of the quad doing muscle failure. Nothing I would enjoy, but I could push myself. Not sure who was running the session, apparently is wasn't someone I knew, or at least not someone in my platoon.

"We should sit back and watch a movie. I have a rough session in the morning, or so I am told. What about you? Typical run Monday?" I asked.
 
"I don't know yet. I was just told that it would be different from the norm. Maybe sprints or something. I just hope that we don't have to do monkey fuckers" those are a painful endurance test where one grabs the insides of the ankles and squats as many times as they can. It's painful on the legs. Running was nothing neither were the push ups or situps...but we were getting ahead of ourselves. "Go ahead and pick a movie. I'm going to visit the fridge. Want something to drink?" going that way.
 
I pulled out "The Expendibles" and set it down. Ryan had a great library of movies and he'd been keeping up with some of the latest. I picked it in part because I enjoyed watching Sylvester Stallone, but the other part was because I knew he'd enjoy it too.

I glanced over my shoulder, "water works," I answered waiting for him to come back. I thought the movie would be a great end to the day.
 
Using a Brita filter I poured her a glass of cool water into a glass and grabbed a soda for myself and came back offering her a glass and smiled at the movie. It was a throwback to the 80s and 90s. Cheesy, yes, but it packed in everything that you wanted in a pure action flick. Popping it into the dvd player and picking up the remote I rejoined Amanda on the bed nuzzling up shoulder to shoulder with her as the warning labels began to play and I pressed fast forward. Then I realized that the lights were too bright for this kind of situation. A movie, with a companion, should be in a dim or nil light room so that the screen is bright and it enabled you to be close and I hurriedly ran and turned off the lights and pulled close the curtain. There, now it was perfect and I nuzzled back up with Amanda. Perfect.
