"Really? I'm honored, beautiful. Maybe I'll get your name under mine then. What do you think?"

"I'd love to see my name on your hot Martian body."

Throttle stopped and looked at me, then he grabbed me. He brought me closer to him and gave me a very passionate kiss. It seemed like forever, but in reality, it was only like 10 mins.

I was very shocked that he just spontaneously grabbed me and passionately kissed me. That shock turned into a smile. He smiled back and took my hand and we finished our hike to the place for the ziplining.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

When we got there, the instructor looked at us kinda strange. "Is he really a giant mouse?"

"Yes, he is. He's from Mars. Can we get on with the instructions and get to having fun on the zipline?"

"Sure, no problem. Come on up."

We climbed up and the instructor showed us the correct way to put the harness on and how to hook the connector on the line. I let Throttle go first, and he told me that I should go first.

I shrugged and put the harness on and the helmet. I hooked myself on the line and took a big jump and went ziplining through the Redwood Forest. Throttle went next. He had a hard time with the helmet but he managed to get it on.

He was about a half a mile behind me. I looked at him as he was quickly catching up with me. He was having so much fun. I was glad, too. Probably hadn't had this much fun in a long time.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

When we got to the other side of the forest, the other instructor helped us get out of the harness after we unhooked ourselves from the line.

"That was awesome. What a view from here. Thank you, Throttle. That was fun." Then I hugged him.

"I'm glad you enjoyed that. I did too. I hadn't had that much fun in a very long time. We don't even have ziplining on Mars." Then he looked at the instructor. "How do we get back to the other side? Zipline back?"

"No. We have someone to take you back to your vehicle. Thank you for choosing Redwood Zipline. Hope you come visit us again soon."

"I hope so too. By chance, are you open during the winter?"

"I'm afraid not, ma'am. Just during the summer."

"Oh, ok. Just thought I'd ask."

"No harm in asking. Have a good day, you two. Thank you for coming."

We climbed down from the platform and got into a side by side (like a John Deere gator). We were taken back through the forest and back to the parking lot where Throttle's bike was.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

We were let off right by the bike by the driver of the side by side. We thanked him for the ride back and he waved. We watched him leave then Throttle unlocked the saddle bags and got the helmets out. He handed me my helmet, then put his on. I did the same.

"So, you had fun ziplining, huh?" He got on the bike shortly after.

I got on right after he did. I wrapped my arms around his midsection and he wrapped his tail around my waist. I leaned in and told him I had a blast. He reached over his head and hit the button to close the face shield on my helmet, then did the same on his.

He started the bike and we headed for the next place. I asked where we were going and he wouldn't tell me. All he said was that it was a surprise.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Several hours later, we arrived at the set location. I had fallen asleep on the way. He didn't mind, either. He parked and turned to face me and pushed the button to open the face shield on the helmet. He gave me a kiss on my nose. I woke up and looked at him. He smiled at me.

"Time to wake up, my sleeping beauty. We're here." Then he unwrapped his tail from around my waist. He got off the bike and then helped me get off since I had just woken up from a nice nap.

I got my cell phone out and looked at the time. I also noticed that I had a missed call from Charley.

"Hey, Charley called. Should I call her back to see what she wanted?"

Yeah, go ahead. I'll get everything taken care of for our next event. I'll be right back, beautiful." Then he kissed my nose again.

After I took my helmet off, I proceeded to call Charley to see what she wanted.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Last Chance Garage. The phone rang and Modo answered it. "Last Chance Garage. How may I help you?"

"Very professional, Modo. Is Charley around?"

"Let me go check. Its good to hear from you, Michelle." Modo put the phone down on the work bench and went looking for Charley.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

10 mins. later, Charley picked up the phone. "Hey girl. How's the trip so far? Throttle treating you good?"

"He's treating me like a queen, Charley. He told me that you set him up with a bank account and a credit card."

"Yep. I'm glad he's treating you good. Like Modo, he's a very sweet guy. That whole macho mouse thing is just for show. Where you two at right now?"

"I'm not sure. He wouldn't tell me, just that it's a surprise. We did the zipline and he also had fun. He said there's nothing like that on Mars."

"Not surprising. There's not much left of the planet. They're trying to protect what's left of the plant life and the animal life."

"I wish them all the luck up there. How's everything there? Enjoying the quiet?"

"Yeah, but that's when the big schemes are hatched. Limburger is up to something."

"He could also be on vacation. God knows even bad guys need one."

"True. I could use one, myself. I caught Modo looking at vacation spots the other day."

"Is he thinking a trip for two?"

"I think so, but I'm not going to ask him. I'll let him ask me."

"Good idea. Hey, Throttle is on his way back. I'll call you when we are on our way back."

"Ok Mike. Have fun, but be careful."

"We will, Charley. Later." Then I hung up the phone when Throttle walked up.

"The event is scheduled for tomorrow afternoon. I was told there's a motel just up the road we can stay at for tonight."

"Sounds good to me. I need a shower and a good night's rest. How about you, studly?"

"Also sounds good to me. I'm finding that showers relieve me of stress from the day. They also feel good."

"Know what else feels good? Back massages. Ever have one?"

"Nope."

I looked at him in shock. "Never?"

"Never."

"I find that hard to believe. Your ex never gave you one?"

"Nope. You?"

"I screwed my shoulder up bad one day, and Charley massaged it for me. She's pretty good, too."

"What about you?"

"What about me?"

"Do you give good massages? I have a feeling that after today, I'm gonna need one."

"I've been known to be good with my hands."

"Let's head to the motel, check in, get a room and take a shower. Then you can massage my back and my shoulders while we take that shower."

"Sounds good to me, my tan furred Adonis."
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

When we arrived at the motel, I noticed that it was a Best Western. I get a discount due to being retired military. Something I hadn't told Throttle yet….until now.

"If you're paying, then we're getting a military discount. Got it?"

"Military? Active or retired?"

"Retired. 20 yrs."

"Really? What branch?"

"Marines."

"Nice. Looks like I still have a lot to learn about you and we have our whole lives to learn about each other."

We walked up to the door and went inside. The person behind the counter looked at Throttle.

"Don't ask, ok. We just need a room for tonight."

"We only have one room left and it has a single bed in it."

I looked at Throttle. "Do you mind sharing a single bed with me?"

"Not at all, babe."

I looked at the guy and told him we would take it and I showed him my military ID for the discount.

After Throttle paid for the room and we got the keys, we headed for our room to take a shower.

I unlocked the door and walked in. Throttle walked in right behind me, then he shut the door. I laid the keys on the dresser as we walked in, then took my shoes off and sat on the edge of the bed. I was exhausted from just the ride. Throttle noticed how tired I looked.

He came over and sat down next to me and started massaging my shoulders. "Wow! That feels good, babe. You're good with your hands."

"Thank you."

"Mind massaging my back if I lay down? That ride from Chi-town to Cali killed my back."

"Sure. Just take it easy laying down."

I carefully laid across the bed and Throttle took his boots off and straddled me, then started massaging my back. He knew just about every pressure point on my back. He hit every one of them and I was feeling so much better.

"Sure you weren't a masseur before the war? You hit all my pressure points and made the pain go away. I feel like a new woman."

Throttle chuckled a bit then started nuzzling my neck. "Mmmmm. You had this planned for after the zip line, didn't you?"

He whispered into my ear, "maybe. Want me to stop?"

"God no. Its been a long time since I was this intimate with someone I love."

He unstraddled me then flipped me over and started undoing my pants. After they went on the floor, he started on my shirt. That too, went on the floor. He didn't waste any time getting the rest of my clothing off.

Throttle was going to take his time with me tonight. He wanted to explore every inch of my body. I was going to enjoy every inch of him, too.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Over the course of the night, we had gone 4 rounds. I don't ever remember coming that hard or gone that long. We were both worn out that we didn't bother to get under the blankets. We just curled up next to each other until the sun shone through the drapes.

He was very restrained for being a guy. There was no sex the whole night. Nothing but exploring each other's bodies. In my mind, I was begging for him to take me, but I was happy with him just exploring my body. He made me cum 4 different times without any penetration. I don't know how he did that, but after the 4th time, I was exhausted.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

During the remainder of the night, I was shivering. Throttle noticed and held me closer to his body so I could get warm. I snuggled closer to him for warmth, but couldn't get warm. I hated to wake him, but I needed to get under the blankets, but I had to wake him.

"Throttle, baby. Wake up, please."

He opened his eyes and looked at me. He had gorgeous eyes, even for a Martian Mouse. "What is it, babe? You cold again?"

"Yeah. Mind if we get under the blankets?"

He smiled at me. "Not at all. I was getting a bit chilled, too."

Then we got under the blankets and curled up next to each other again.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Next morning, we woke up a little before the sun shone into our room. I looked over my shoulder and smiled at the gorgeous mouse holding me. He smiled back at me. I flipped over to look at him face to face.

"Morning handsome."

"Morning beautiful. Did you enjoy yourself last night? Cause I know I did."

"Honestly, I can't remember ever coming 4 different times without penetration. How'd you do that?"

"I'm not revealing my secret. I am glad you got the needed release. I'll be honest with you, Mike. I wanted to take you while getting you off, but thought better of it. I don't want anything to go wrong with our blossoming relationship. In time, I will take you, but only when I'm ready and when we are ready to start a family. Ok?"

I kissed his nose. "I'm fine with that, Throttle. I would love to start a family with you, but like you said, when you're ready to. All the guys I've dated never wanted kids. I want kids and I'm glad to be able to share that dream with the man, er, mouse I love so very much." Then I kissed him passionately.
