Trailblazing

Colette first met Ashley when Colette transferred into the Corporate Recovery Unit of the bank where Ashley had worked for years. They hit it off immediately, discovering that they shared a number of the same interests in movies, men, and just about everything else under the sun. Both were athletic, avidly hiking and swimming. Each joined the division's co-ed softball team which ended up winning the rec-league championship behind Colette's strong pitching. Within two months of Colette's transfer into the department, the two of them were almost inseparable.

One of the things they discovered was that each loved hiking and camping. They were surprised, but not terribly so, to learn that each had a long-standing desire to walk the Appalachian Trail. So after some planning, they decided to take their two-week vacations together and begin the hike from the Georgia mountains northward. They knew they wouldn't get far, but at least it was a start.

They flew into the Atlanta airport which is a sprawling series of runways along the city's southern side. From there they rented a car to carry them up to the foothills of the Appalachians. They stayed the first night in a resort lodge at the top of Amicolola Falls at the head of the trail. On the second day, they were off.

As they walked side by side through the piney forests, Colette noticed Ashley sneaking glances at her body. While they were close friends, Colette never considered her friend as a potential sexual partner. It wasn't that Colette was adverse to sleeping with another woman; in fact Colette had enjoyed a number of same-sex affairs over the years. It was just that the subject had never come up and she just hadn't thought about it.

That night they set up camp in an area specifically built for hikers which offered places to take semi-warm showers. After their first day of walking the trail, both women wanted to shower and to sit down and relax next to a fire. Colette set up the tent while Ashley cooked. It grew dark and both women lounged next to the fire, talking and relaxing and looking up at the Georgia summer sky.

Eventually they determined it was time to get to bed. They entered their tent and lay down, side by side, on top of their sleeping bags. It was dark, but Colette could see the dark silhouette of Ashley's body against the light fabric of the tent. She turned over on her side, away from Ashley, and closed her eyes. Ashley leaned forward, taking Colette's fine hair in her hand. She stroked it softly before pulling it away from the ear. She moved closer until her mouth was only inches away from Colette's exposed ear. Ashley breathed softly and a shiver went up and down Colette's spine.

Ashley saw Colette squirm and moved her lips to nibble gently on the edge of Colette's ear. With the tip of her tongue she traced its contours and then plunged inside. Colette gasped instantly as the hot tongue slipped deep inside her ear. It withdrew and Colette sighed as she pressed her thighs together. Ashley playfully bit at Colette's ear as she pulled all of Colette's hair up and away from her body. Then the tongue and mouth dove down into the nape of Colette's neck.

Colette groaned and then turned over to face her friend. Ashley's firm hand found its way into Colette's sweat pants and began to caress the dark triangle of hair. She was soaking wet and Ashley was quickly in her. They kissed for the first time, furiously and passionately. Ashley began tugging insistently at Colette's pants. Colette raised her hips of the sleeping bag, pulled off her sweats and underwear, and put them aside.

Ashley kissed down Colette's firm body. Colette's legs began trembling the moment Ashley's tongue found her pussy and began licking Colette's flowing juices. Up and down the folds of Colette's flesh Ashley licked until she penetrated Colette with the length of her tongue. Colette gasped as the strong wet muscle pushed inside her and then withdrew. Again it came into her and Colette shivered with pleasure only to be left wanting as it disappeared again. Colette reached down to hold Ashley's head against her, pulling her face strongly against her body. Ashley snaked her tongue out again, deep into Colette who came suddenly and powerfully.

As Colette's orgasm faded, Ashley kissed her way back up Colette's body. Their lips met briefly before Ashley settled her head against the base of Colette's neck. They fell asleep.
