While Elliot was still grooming Hazel, he started to feel a rush of guilt wash over him as his thoughts drifted to what the two of them just did, wondering if maybe they rushed into things too quickly in the heat of the moment and what the reppercusions were for their friendship as a whole could be?
Would things be the same after this was all said and done with?
Would they be able to look eachother in the eyes the same way ever again?
Swallowing his nervousness, Elliot stopped his grooming to address his former coach and bestfriend." Hey uh, Hazel? can I ask you something...about us? "
" What do you mean, Elliot? " Hazel responded between bites of a Love Guru DVD, her lover choosing to ignore where it came from and stick to the more pressing matter at hoof. Her big blue and yellow eyes melting the poor minature horse's heart as they stared into his.
" You think that we kinda rushed things a bit? " Elliot asked her as he batted at the snow with his hoof. " Do you think that we should take things slow for now on? "
Sitting on her haunches and tapping her hoof to her caprine chin to think the question over, Hazel shifted her eyes between herself and Elliot a few times until she got up, turned herself away from him and stretched herself, the horse getting a good view of her matted vulva before finshing off her little teasing exerscise with a tail wag and a coy smirk on her lips before turning back to the confussled equine to give him her answer.
" Hmmm, I've did some thinking Elliot, and I know that's sometimes difficult for little ol' me. " She chuckled with Elliot nodding in agreement with an eyeroll and a chuckle. " But I think you're right, we did rush this relationship abit too fast, Hell, we don't what to do with something like this! "
" I know, that's what I'm struggling with here. " Elliot replied before an idea popped into his head, causing his tail to raise upwards in excitement. " I got it! why don't we watch Coach and Reporter Lady and go from there? could be a great learning lesson for us! " He suggested.
" I dunno, Shorty. seems a tad bit of Scniedermann levels of creepy...and yes I do realize the irony with what I said in the second chapter of this story, but still! "
" I have no idea who that is, but it's all we got, Hazel! " Elliot pleaded. " Please work with me on this! "
" Oh alright sure, let's give it a shot then. " Hazel agreed to the plan. " What's worse than training for some compition for Santa's sleigh team? "
" Or being in a dehydrater in Duluth...*shudders * " Elliot recalled as shivers ran up his spine.
" Yeesh, don't remind me. * burrr! * " Hazel recoiled in disgust. " I still get nightmares of that crazy lady! "
" And I'm pretty sure she still has nightmares about goats since then. " Elliot said slyly.
" Noone can ever withstand..the Full Goat! " Hazel cackled evily as her pupils turned horizontal and bore a slasher smile on her lips as she danced with delight as her boyfriend laughed with her as the sky suddenly turned red and satantic pentagrams started to appear in the clouds while a Rob Zombie track played in the background...only for it all to dissipate when a voice called out to the both of them.
" WILL YOU TWO SHUT THE FUCK UP?! DJ WAS TRYING TO SLEEP! " a tired and agitated DJ told them as a sitcom crowd suddenly cheered in delight out of nowhere. " What the hell is going on here? " He then asked fearfully, thinking that the farm might be haunted by the ghost of late night TV.
" It's a big lipped alligator moment, DJ. Don't worry about it. " Hazel assured him.
" DJ knows for a fact that there's no swamps in North Dakota and I know that you two are more than just friends! " DJ pointed a hoof at the two.
" Oh gee... what gave that away? " Elliot and Hazel snarked in unison.
" DJ remembers how worried you were about Hazel! " DJ recalled with a smug grin as he started humming the "kissing in a tree "song.
" It's called having empathy and compassion for others, DJ. And just because a boy and a girl are together, don't mean that they have to be in a relationship with each other all the time! " Hazel pointed out. " Relationships can be just platonic. "
DJ blinked and tilted his head in confusion. " DJ tuned out at that last part... what was the point of that? "
" Ugh, nevermind DJ, now go back your stable and leave me and Hazel alone! " Elliot grunted in frustration.
" Hey hey, now Miniman. DJ didn't mean to get your nuts in a twist, I'm going, but just know, I'll be watching you! " DJ warned as he gestured to his eyes and towards Elliot and Hazel as he made his way back to the reindeer stables.
" You think he means it? " Hazel asked.
" Knowing DJ, he probably does. " Elliot speculated. " But what he doesn't know, won't hurt him. "
" Famous last words, Elliot! " Hazel reminded him as she popped her neck. " Nothing ever ends well when those words are uttered. "
" I know babe...I know. " Elliot chuckled. " Now come on, let's get the goat's ready for the Goat Run. "
" Right beside you, big guy! " Hazel cooed as she joined her boyfriend. " So...are we going to multitask and spy on Coach and Reporter Lady? "
" That's the plan, Sugarplum. " Elliot teased as the goat glared at him.
" Hey, only Reporter Lady gets to call me, Sugarplum! " Hazel reprimanded. " And she still owes me those dog treats in her purse! "
" What ever you say, Sugarplum! " Elliot responded with a lick to the goat's cheek. " Whatever you say..."
Hazel's face turned a brighter shade of orange at this act of affection as she returned the favor by jumping in front of Elliot and kisses him passionately on the lips, her left leg popping up and her tail wagging in excitement.
Letting out a excited whinny, Elliot returned the kiss as he wrapped his arms around her and pulls her close, their tongues dancing inside their mouths.
Feeling something else rising, Hazel pulled away and broke the kiss, a long strain of saliva leaving both of their mouths. " I know that was hot, Honey. But you got a little too excited there. " She laughed.
" I'm sorry, Hazel. " Elliot apologized as he glared at his dangling horsecock. " I'll try to keep myself in check from now on. "
" See that you do, Hot Stuff " Hazel told him as she gestured with her hoof to whisper in his ear. " If it helps your hardon any, I got excited myself! " She giggled.
Elliot chuckled in response as he opened the door to the goat stables to let Hazel in first, watching those nice goat hips sway as he followed her inside to start the rest of the day.
