Harry and Gia wake shortly before six that Saturday morning to Brian waking them. Brian is saying, "Hey lovebirds, time to go."

Harry and Gia get up. Harry grabs his backpack and starts to head out the bedroom door.

Brian says, "Harry, get dressed first."

Gia says, "Let's have some fun."

She knocks Harry back onto the bed and grabs his briefs.

Brian says, "Okay, that's a different way than I anticipated." He exits the bedroom.

Gia dresses Harry in the briefs, shorts, one of her T-shirts and his shoes. Harry returns the favor and dresses Gia.

Harry grins and says, "Brian's right. That was different."

Harry grabs his backpack and they head downstairs to the car.

* * * Appeals * * *

Brian and Harry get out of the SUV first at the trail-head. Brian says, "Harry, I thought we might do something a bit different."

Harry asks, "Like what?"

Brian says, "Rest assured, nudity is still an option. I was thinking about a bit of rock climbing first."

Harry looks at Brian funny.

Brian says, "Harry, just give it a try. We can head straight to the rock face along the other trail."

Gia says, "Sure, I'd love to see Harry give this a try."

Celeste says, "Fast stripper."

The now naked Harry says, "Well, I'll end up this way anyways."

Brian says, "Whatever. My pack can't handle the gear along with the other supplies. So Harry, can you carry the gear?"

Gia says, "I can handle Harry."

Celeste says, "I'm sure you have."

Harry says, "Alright, I'll carry it."

Harry sets down his backpack. Brian hands Harry a bunch of gear and ropes. Harry stores them into his backpack. Once this is finished, Brian secures the SUV and the group heads up a different trail than before.

Gia says, "Harry, there are many different trails here."

After a couple of sharp bends in this trail, they stop. Brian, Celeste, and Gia strip.

Brian explains, "Harry, only some of these trails are infrequently used. That parking lot has a number of trail-heads. Even though nudity is legal, it's a bit risky to always streak in that parking lot. Especially on a sunny weekend like this one."

Harry asks, "How far?"

Brian says, "About three miles to the rocks and then it's mile from there to our favorite knoll."

They continue hiking.

Harry asks, "You say infrequently used, why?"

Celeste says, "There are plenty of better spots elsewhere. That and..."

Brian says, "She gets unfavorable things published about this preserve."

Harry asks, "What unfavorable things?"

Celeste says, "Exaggerations of the truth. See, people like having preserves for local wildlife. So, we just make hints about it being a bit more dangerous and not worthwhile compared to nearby places. Given that I'm interning at the paper, it's easy to get things in."

Harry asks, "Does that scare everyone?"

Brian says, "No, just the ones that are not hard core about hiking or adventure."

Gia says, "Which does not include Harry."

Celeste says, "Good."

Brian says, "Based upon that burglary he thwarted or Derek, I assume as much."

Harry asks, "Any word about Nelson Grant?"

Celeste says, "Take this, his dashing for the exit gives him another year. Anyways, he's in the process of appealing."

Brian says, "Unlikely to win, but I don't blame him for trying. He's got some assistance though from some firm called Grunnings. Dad has yet to figure out the connection."

Harry exclaims, "What? They're getting that involved?"

Brian asks, "Who?"

Harry explains, "Uncle Vernon is the director Grunnings. Dudley Dursley is their son. Dudley probably had a tantrum and Vernon gave in."

Brian says, "That explains it. I'll tell Dad when I see him Monday."

Celeste says, "Let's see, Nelson is appealing and challenging everything including us, the gun, the officer, and that dance. Also, he fired his public defender on the grounds of incompetence, so that will be in the appeal."

Harry rolls his eyes.

Brian says, "He's even trying to challenge the extra year despite the mounds of evidence to the contrary. From what I understand, that hurts his defense."

Celeste says, "He should have gone for the plea bargain."

Harry asks, "Plea bargain?"

Brian says, "Yes. If he took it, he would be in for six months, not six years."

Harry says, "Not too bright. Just a moment."

They pause as Harry gets out sunscreen.

Brian says "Good idea." and he does the same.

They continue moving while they apply the sunscreen.

Harry asks, "So, how much rock climbing do you do?"

Brian says, "Quite a bit, at least once or twice a month."

Celeste says, "Normally, he wears a bit more."

Brian says, "Harry, you might want to as well."

Harry asks, "Why?"

Brian replies, "Well, it depends if you like minor scrapes on your butt."

Gia says, "Which tough guys don't worry about."

Brian snorts as he gets out several water bottles. He hands one to Harry and says, "Drink."

Harry says, "I'm not thirsty."

Brian says, "Drink anyways. It's very easy to get dehydrated while rock climbing and I do not want have to drag you out because of it."

Harry warns, "I'll get waterlogged with this."

Brian says, "I don't care. You do not want dehydration, it's horrible."

* * * Rock Climbing * * *

A bit later, they turn off the trail, follow the a number of turns of the creek and they arrive at the rock face at the end of a forested valley. The rock face ranges from two to three hundred feet in height. The concave rock wall is maybe six hundred feet wide where it meets hills to both sides. Near the middle of the U-bend of the wall, a waterfall is running over the edge and down into a pool of water. The creek flows out of this pool.

Harry looks up and remarks, "That's a bit high."

Brian says, "There are easy and hard routes on it. Can you get out the gear?"

Harry gets out the climbing gear and sets it onto the ground. Brian hands Harry a safety harness and rock shoes.

Harry protests, "But my tan!"

Brian says, "We are climbing safely, your other choice is falling off the rock wall."

Brian hands safety harnesses to Celeste and Gia. They put them on.

Gia says, "Harry, several hours won't wreck your tans."

Brian says, "Besides, you're more exposed than is typical and the harness usually shifts around."

Harry grins and says, "I guess I probably am."

Brian says, "Normally, people wear shorts and things get tight around the nut-sack."

Celeste stands next to the rock wall with a bunch of things dangling from her harness.

Brian says, "Okay, when Celeste climbs, she will set chocks. I will belay the rope."

Gia asks, "Chocks? Belay?"

Brian explains, "Harry, this is the first time Gia's done the rock climbing with us. The chock is used to anchor the rope to the rock. Belaying is what I will do, monitor the rope and minimize her falls."

Brian demonstrates belaying as Celeste climbs the rock. She sets the chocks up along the line. At the top she secures several ropes onto an anchor bolt in the rock.

Brian says, "Okay, she's anchored the rope. See Harry, you only need the chocks on the first ascent. Once she has the other ropes anchored, we can ascend along any route that is covered by the rope."

Harry asks, "Why is there an anchor point up there?"

Brian says, "Well, Richard and I bolted that up there some time ago. When you climb a rock wall enough times, it's easier to stick one in. Normally, we have a pull rope there already. It's not here for some reason."

Celeste starts climbing back down and removes the chocks. Gia wades into the pool of water.

Brian says, "Celeste is climbing back down. Her other option would be to rappel. I'll demonstrate that after I climb."

Harry says, "Rappel?"

Brian says, "Take advantage of the gravity. It's a more rapid method of descent and you use the rope as your only support. There are several techniques, but our choice of apparel kind eliminates one method."

Harry asks, "How come?"

Brian says, "There are two common methods to rappel. One is to have your belayer gradually let out the safety rope. If you use a second rope, then you let yourself down a bit at a time. However, the rope would drag across your naked buttocks and I doubt you like rope burns."

Harry says, "No."

Brian says, "Of course, there's nothing to stop you from trying and then switching methods. One more thing, don't step on or pee on the ropes."

Celeste reaches the ground. Gia emerges from the water and grins at Harry. Harry's member hardens.

Brian says, "I don't care if you lovebirds want to play like that. Just don't spray the ropes either."

Harry says, "You're a bit finicky about the ropes."

Celeste says, "Because our lives depend on them being in good condition. We don't take chances with them."

Brian says, "As it is, I need to replace these every couple of years."

Harry looks at the rope and says, "It looks fine."

Brian replies, "I just replaced them last month, that's why. Like Celeste said, I don't take chances with these. A nasty injury or a death isn't worth the potential savings of using old and frayed rope."

Harry asks, "Can't you just tell if a rope is bad?"

Brian says, "Some things are obvious like it being totally cut or losing the sheath around the rope. However, if the core gets damaged or breaks down, it failing when I need it is the only way I can be certain if its bad or not. And falling is not my method of choice in this matter. Dad pitches in to help replace them because he recognizes this as well."

Celeste hooks herself into the anchor for belaying. Brian puts on the climbing helmet.

Gia says, "Brian, wait a moment. Could you cover why we have all this gear?"

Brian says, "Oh, guess I got ahead of my self there. Harry, sit for a moment."

They sit down. Brian grabs some of the gear.

Brian says, "Harry, there are different methods to rock climbing. One is freestyle and that would entail none of this gear."

Harry asks, "Why not do that way then?"

Brian says, "Somebody who freestyles is either really, really good, or really, really stupid. Very rarely will you meet stupid ones, cause they don't make it. Serious injuries and deaths occur fairly frequently for those who freestyle."

Celeste says, "Freestyle is a very, very dangerous idea, especially for the novice or amateurs like us."

Gia says, "Which means Harry would be first in line."

Harry snickers. Brian says, "And dead. Like I said earlier, we do not want to have to deal with that."

Celeste says, "Falls are a very real possibility. The ropes and safety harness are used to catch you when you fall. Celeste and I have fallen numerous times before."

Brian says, "Also, you need ropes to rappel, otherwise you have to climb back down."

Harry says, "Hence, all the anchors and pulleys."

Brian says, "Yes. The harness is much more comfortable than a rope tied around you. The rope attaches to the harness which is why you want it as tight as possible. Since you're otherwise naked, you don't need to worry about your shorts scrunching your nuts."

Harry cinches up his harness and Celeste snickers.

Brian says, "Watch as Celeste belays me during my climb. The belayer uses the rope to catch the climber during a fall. The helmet keeps rocks from hitting me in the head. These shoes give you a better footing on the rocks."

Harry says, "Alright, that's understandable."

Brian gets up and says, "The loop at the end of the rope is attached to the carabiner like this." Brian demonstrates.

Celeste says, "Brian, here." She hands Brian a piece of hardware. It has a smaller and larger metal ring connected by short band of metal.

Harry says, "That looks like an eight."

Brian says, "This is a super eight actually and it's useful for rappelling. See, when you tuck in the rappel rope into this, you can let yourself down easily."

Brian demonstrates the device and letting the rope out for rappelling.

Brian says, "Of course, the other technique is to let your belayer take the brunt of the work and just let you down as if you're falling. One final note, the gloves are good for avoiding rope burn on your hands."

Brian attaches a pair of gloves to his harness. Celeste puts on a pair of gloves. Brian walks over to the rocks and starts climbing.

Celeste says, "Harry, Watch."

Harry watches the both of them. Halfway up the rocks, Brian shouts, "Harry, pay attention!"

Brian lets go and jumps backward in a short fall. Celeste pulls down on the rope and stops it.

Celeste comments, "Of course falling can put pressure onto the bladder, causing Brian to take a piss."

Brian regains his holds and resumes climbing.

At the top Brian shouts, "I'm rappelling now!"

Brian leans back and lets the rope take his weight.

Harry mutters, "Fascinating, it's like he's walking down the side of the rock."

Celeste says, "Backward though he might face downward instead. I tried that once and scared the wits out of myself."

Harry asks, "The other method?"

Celeste says, "Brian knows better than to make me do that. It's a chore and less fun."

Harry asks, "Do you two always rock climb naked?"

Celeste snorts and says, "No, in fact this is the first time naked. However, he was chomping at the bit this week about the possibility. At least I know Gia has a boyfriend with no hangups over his body."

Harry says, "Funny, I used to be so paranoid about it until I met Gia. Now, I don't mind my friends getting the full picture."

Gia hugs Harry and she asks, "What about others seeing you?"

Harry replies, "Still a bit paranoid there. It felt awkward in the boys shower at your school when Halderman came in, and when we were caught on the last trip. So don't expect to see me naked on television or something."

Celeste asks, "So, you consider me and Brian as friends?"

Harry says, "Yes."

Brian says, "Thanks and likewise for us." Brian detaches the ropes from his harness.

Celeste says, "Alright, we can have you two go simultaneously."

Brian hooks up the other safety rope for belaying. Harry looks a bit bewildered.

Brian says, "I assume you want to climb."

Harry says, "I've never climbed before so I want to do it at least once to see how I like it."

Brian catches on and says, "Oh, you want tips?"

Harry says, "Yeah, kinda."

Brian says, "Okay, remember always keep three holds. Move one foot or one hand at a time. Keep your hands about shoulder level and don't let your hands carry your weight. One of your foothold should do that. If you need advice as you climb, holler down."

Celeste suggests, "Grab those gloves."

Brian hands Harry the gloves and says, "Put these on when you want to rappel." Brian then wraps the figure eight and attaches it to Harry's harness along with the safety rope.

Harry puts on the helmet and walks to the rock wall. Gia is now alongside him on his right. They take steps onto the first ledge. Harry grabs a rock and then steps onto a slightly higher ledge.

Brian shouts, "Harry, work to your left, there's a nice route that way."

Celeste slaps Brian and says, "Stop drooling over Gia and watch Harry."

Harry whips, "Brian, you had better squash those fantasies."

Brian says, "Be nice, I've got your life in my hands."

Harry says, "Only if I fall, which I won't."

Celeste says, "Harry, don't worry. If Brian does anything, his balls won't be of any use to him."

Brian says, "Hey!"

Gia says, "Mellow out down there!"

Harry climbs a bit up and starts getting into a tight area.

Brian says, "That's the chimney on that route. It's easy to get up with plenty of holds, but it does get a bit tight. Don't scrape yourself!"

Celeste says, "Gia, to your right a bit more. Harry, jiggle a bit."

Gia whips, "Celeste!"

Brian snaps at Celeste, "You were the one worrying about me!"

Celeste says, "My next words were going to be, 'Watch him Gia'. Honest!"

Harry says, "Brian, jiggle for Celeste, will you? She needs some action."

Brian twists to face Celeste and wiggles a bit. He asks, "Feeling better?"

Celeste says, "A bit, but I want it from a different angle."

Harry reaches the top.

Brian shouts, "Harry, step away from the ledge and wait a moment!"

Gia reaches the top and follows a bit as Harry moves a bit away from the edge of the rock wall.

Celeste says, "Brian, can you pick that up?"

She's pointing to the carabiner she just tossed to his other side. She giggles as she watches Brian's rear and jiggly parts. Brian bends over, shakes his ass, and picks up the carabiner.

Brian asks, "Does that help?"

Gia shouts back down, "For Celeste, Yes. Now, we are going to rappel!"

Harry asks, "Gia, does that rock your boat? Seeing my balls from that angle?"

Gia says, "Yes, occasionally. It's funny to watch them dangle."

Harry says, "Normal part of life."

Gia says, "For guys, yes. For girls, no."

Brian shouts, "Hey lovebirds! We're waiting!"

Celeste says, "Be patient as they will eventually descend from the love nest."

Gia giggles.

Harry says, "Okay, I'll try this first."

Harry puts on the gloves, tightens the rappel rope, and steps to the edge of the ledge. Slowly, he pulls tightly and starts leaning back as he walks backward. Harry descends halfway when Gia follows. Harry pauses as Gia catches up.

Harry mutters, "Wait."

Gia stops alongside Harry. Harry moves over to her and they kiss.

Brian says, "Geez, that takes balls."

Celeste says, "Harry already has those."

Harry and Gia continue to rappel down the face until they reach the bottom.

Brian says, "Alright Harry, want to try to belay while I climb?"

Harry shrugs his shoulders and says, "Sure."

Celeste says, "I'll watch and assist if you need it."

Gia says, "Which means she'll want you to bend over Harry."

Harry says, "Not while you're preoccupied with them first Gia."

Brian hooks Harry into the belay anchor and says, "Harry, concentrate on the safety of the climber, not the girls."

Brian grabs the helmet and walks over to the rocks. Harry draws in the rope as Brian climbs. Around a hundred feet, Brian slips on his pee from his previous climb. Harry breaks the fall with the rope.

Brian shouts, "That was good, the fall was better than normal."

Celeste says, "In other words, you stopped it quicker than most people."

Gia says, "Harry does have good reflexes."

Brian continues climbing and reaches the top. Brian yells, "Harry, the second method, let me down with the rope."

Brian leans backward while Celeste guides Harry.

Celeste says, "Alright, just ease him down faster if he behaves, and real slow if he makes a rude comment."

Gia snickers. Harry lets Brian down gradually. About a minute later, Brian is at the base of the rock wall.

Harry says, "Celeste, go if you want."

Celeste says, "Yes."

Brian says, "Gia, you can belay. I'll assist."

Brian hooks Gia into the setup and stands next to her. Celeste starts climbing. Brian nudges into Gia and his length hardens.

Harry warns, "Brian, back off."

Brian says, "Oh, sorry. Gia, pay attention to the beautiful and attractive Celeste. Watch as she waddles around her clitoris."

Celeste says, "Brian, I heard that! And get control over your dick for a change!"

Harry bumps into Brian's other side and Harry says, "Keep that under control around them."

Brian whips, "Yeah, like you don't find Celeste or Hermione interesting."

Gia snaps, "Can we keep this conversation civil? You both need to keep better control over your dicks. Harry, take a dip in that pool back there."

Harry removes his safety harness and rock shoes. He walks over to the pool. He wades in the cool and crisp water until the water is up to his neck. He turns and watches Celeste reach the top of the rock wall. Brian keeps his distance around Gia as he coaches her. Celeste leans backward and rappels down. After a couple of minutes, she reaches the bottom. Harry wades out and returns to Gia.

Celeste says, "Gia, good idea. Brian, take a dip in that pool!"

Gia giggles and says, "I didn't realize cold water does that to your nut-sack."

Harry replies, "Gia, they always shrivel a bit when I'm a bit cold. It happens to every guy including Brian over there. Swimming is anything but hot water does it fast."

Brian returns and says, "Never ask a guy to show them off after swimming for a while in a cool pool!"

Celeste bends over to look anyways and giggles. She says, "Still, it's interesting that you have to worry about that."

Harry says, "Gia, let's go for another climb."

Gia says, "Sure."

Harry puts on his harness, shoes, and ropes.

Brian says, "Your super eight is attached to the wrong side."

Harry asks, "To go down facing forward?"

Brian says, "Okay, quick adjustment."

Brian adjusts it a bit and demonstrates to Harry the technique.

Celeste says, "I hope you like danger."

Gia says, "Harry likes it, he got a detention for going out a window a hundred feet up."

Brian asks, "Without any safety gear?"

Harry says, "Yep, no safety gear and it's a shear drop off from that particular window. Of course, I went back in, still interesting."

Celeste says, "That qualifies as an adrenaline addiction."

Harry and Gia climb the rock wall again. This time, Gia rappels backward as before. Harry lets her go first. Harry rappels forward just after Gia. They exchange smiles. They chat as they descend.

Harry asks, "Want to dance now?"

Gia chuckles and says, "What, there's no music!"

Harry says, "We can create our own."

Gia smiles and Harry's member hardens.

Gia says, "Are you ready?"

Harry replies, "Not for true sex, not yet. Though if I were, this would be a nice place."

Gia snickers, "You mean as we rappel?"

Harry says, "I dunno, I mean the place should be special or unique. I mean, a broom closet at school or a bedroom? Come on!"

Brian shouts, "Romeo and Juliet, mind moving? You've stopped for several minutes up there."

Celeste says, "Gia, that's a bit of a dangerous place to be without protection!"

Harry and Gia start moving again.

Brian says, "Geez! Some people's minds are always in the gutter!"

Celeste says, "Like two naked boys in sight of me?"

Harry and Gia reach the bottom and come over.

Harry says, "Like all of us. We've got hormones in our systems."

Gia says, "That's all that I am? Hormones?"

Harry says, "Brian, Celeste, climb. We're chatting."

Brian moves to climb as Celeste belays.

* * * Hormones * * *

Harry brings Gia along and they wade into the pool until they're up to their necks.

Harry says, "You're much more to me than just hormones! Hormones do play a part, but I love you."

Gia says, "How do I know?"

Harry says, "Like a Love Potion, you never know with absolute certainty. In the end, you must trust me. Remember what that booklet said? Your sex ed class? Am I just hormones to you?"

"You are more than hormones. You're sensitive, caring, kind, and a good friend!"

"See? My hormones did wake me up to pay attention like yours probably did. Maybe some part of them play a role in our timing, and they do play a role in our sexuality. Understand?"

"It's just your remark earlier."

"Gia, it's fun to blame them, that's all."

"Ducking responsibility?"

"No, I'm still responsible for my behavior. So, want another climb? Should I give you a hand job on the next rappel?"

Gia snorts and says, "Hardly."

Harry says, "There you go, sexual ideas. I like them."

Harry and Gia return to Brian. Celeste finishes her rappel.

Brian says, "I suppose another climb?"

Harry says, "Yes. After that, we can head to the knoll."

Celeste says, "Yeah, we're getting a bit tired of climbing."

Gia asks, "Are you fit to belay us?"

Brian replies, "Yes."

Harry and Gia put on their harnesses and other gear. They climb up to the top. This time they both rappel forward and reach the base in several minutes.

Harry says, "That was fun!"

Gia says, "And a bit spooky this time. I see what you were talking about Celeste."

Celeste says, "So, will you go forward next time?"

Gia replies, "With Harry, yes."

Brian snorts as he gathers the gear. Brian says, "Harry, your pack if you will."

Harry grabs his backpack and opens it. Brian hands Harry the gear and Harry stores it.

Gia suggests, "Another dip? It's quite refreshing."

The four of them park their stuff next to the pool and they wade into it.

Celeste says, "You're quire right. It gets the sweat off."

Brian says, "Good thing that sunscreen is waterproof."

Harry says, "We still need to reapply it, right?"

Brian replies, "Not until sometime after we reach our favorite knoll."

They dunk themselves completely and then wade back out. They put on their sandals. Harry and Brian grab their backpacks. They start walking out of the valley and return to the trail. They turn and head up the trail.

Brian says, "Harry, there are several trails up to the meadow above. You used the other one before and that is the shortest one. Several others, like this one, offer different scenery at a different pace. Some are ten miles or more."

Harry asks, "Have you been on all of them?"

Brian replies, "No, not all, but most of them, yes. I do have a map with me."

* * * Wieners * * *

Sometime after noon, they arrived at their favorite knoll. Harry and Brian are a several minutes ahead of the girls.

Brian asks, "Harry, do you know what they're whispering about?"

Harry replies, "No."

Brian gets out the towel and stretches it onto the grass. Harry and Brian lay onto the towel. The girls come into view and Celeste is whispering into Gia's ear.

"What?" asks Harry.

"Just something, trust us." says Gia.

Gia pulls Harry off the towel and onto the grass. Celeste pulls Brian next to Harry.

"Kneel." says Celeste. Brian and Harry kneel to face their girlfriends.

"Know how to masturbate?" asks Gia.

"No" confess Brian and Harry.

"Ogle us first." says Celeste.

Harry and Brian stare. Their members harden.

Gia says, "Funny how we can do that."

Celeste says, "When we say 'go', stroke yourselves in full view of us. Whoever squirts first is the winner."

"Prize?" asks Brian.

Gia thinks and says, "We'll store a hot dog for the winner." She points to her folds.

"Okay." says Harry.

"Go" says Celeste.

Harry and Brian begin.

"Come on Harry!" says Gia.

"Come on Brian." says Celeste.

"Harry, stare and think dirty." says Gia, spreading her legs wide.

Harry's breaths increase. Brian stares at Celeste's boobs. Harry succeeds and his wetness hits the grass. Brian does the same a minute later.

"See Celeste, boyfriends can be fun." says Gia.

"They tricked us." protests Brian, wetness dribbling.

"No, I thought it was fun. I like Gia playing." says Harry.

Celeste says, "In regards to your comments earlier, we needed to see your passions and you two just demonstrated them. Harry's are a bit stronger so he gets the wiener." says Celeste.

Gia removes a hot dog from the cooler and inserts it like a tampon. "Assuming you want this?" asks Gia of Harry.

"Yes, I've never tried one like that." says Harry.

"The hot dog will absorb flavor by the time we cook dinner." says Gia.

"Just so long as it doesn't get stuck." says Harry, kissing Gia.

They stretch onto the big towel, apply another layer of sunscreen, and sunbathe.

* * * Control * * *

Brian and Celeste get up after a bit of whispering.

Brian says, "Harry, Celeste and I are going to the small lake down the hill for a swim. We'll be back in an hour or two."

Harry is about to reply when Gia cuts him off. She says, "That's fine Brian. Harry and I will stay here."

Brian and Celeste walk off.

Harry asks, "Why'd you do that? I wanted to go with you to that lake with them!"

Gia replies, "Harry, Celeste agreed to give us a bit of space."

Gia smiles and grabs Harry's nut-sack. His length hardens.

Harry says, "I don't understand."

She says, "You know those hormones we discussed? Yours tell you to react like this every time I do this."

He says, "So? I don't mind."

"Harry, I've noticed that you don't have control over your dick. You've commented about Brian's lack of control."

"What guy does?"

"You will if you let me help."

"It's possible?"

"Yes. I finally realized what it was today."

"Which is?"

Gia says, "You've got an Eiffel Tower. Now, concentrate on the ugly face of Snape."

Harry's member goes limp. He says, "Wow!"

Gia says, "Get it? Concentrate on me giving you a blow job."

Harry's member hardens. He says, "Aw, so it's my thoughts that do it!"

Gia replies, "Appears so. Concentrate on, say, Quidditch?"

Harry's member goes limp. He says, "Want to play with this?"

Gia remarks, "Maybe we could harness it to do something? Dick power!"

Harry chuckles and says, "Good one!" His member goes hard.

Gia says, "It might be some common characteristic to your thoughts. Let's change them around and see."

Harry tries a number of different thoughts as Gia suggests them. Gia watches the cycles in Harry's member.

Finally, Harry says, "I get it. It's when I'm self-conscious about sex, me."

Gia says, "Alright, practice this, see if you can do it quickly. When I raise my hand, stiffen. When I lower my hand, relax it."

Gia shifts to make sure Harry gets a full view of her femininity. They practice for a half hour.

Gia finally says, "Harry, you've got it."

Harry says, "Great, that means I've got control."

Gia says, "Not completely, but pretty much, yes. You'll be able to override your dick's will when you want to."

* * * BBQ * * *

About seven thirty, Harry and Brian stroll to the picnic area. Brian is carrying Harry's backpack.

"Are you certain you packed everything? This feels awfully light." says Brian.

"Just packed tightly, that's all." says Harry.

Brian sets the pack down and opens it. He says, "Harry, there is not much here. Where is the charcoal?"

Harry says, "You're not looking at it right. Here." Harry grabs his pack and moving the contents out of Brian's view. Harry pulls out the bag of charcoal and says, "See? The fake bottom had you."

"You would make a good magician Harry." says Brian.

Harry hands Brian the charcoal, lighter fluid, and matches.

"Have you lit a grill before?" asks Harry.

"Plenty of times. You?" says Brian. Brian pours out the charcoal.

"No, my Aunt and Uncle wouldn't ever let me." says Harry.

Brian soaks the charcoal with the lighter fluid and suggests "Tell you what, light it."

Harry gives the match a try, it fizzles and he mutters, "Rotten luck."

"I'll fetch the cooler and the girls." says Brian.

Gia watches as Harry tries another match. Gia grabs the box and says, "These are soaked. They're no good."

Quickly, Harry glances around. He grabs his wand and mutters "Incendio!" Flames leap onto the charcoal. Harry stashes the wand just before Brian returns with the cooler.

Brian sets down the cooler and says, "Nice flames Harry and that red is unusual. You say you never lit one before, my ass." Celeste gives Brian a quick swat on his buttocks. Brian exclaims, "Hey!"

Celeste grins and says, "You said 'my ass'." Brian returns the favor.

They set out the fixings while the grill warms up. Brian gets the hot dogs out of the cooler and sets them on the grill.

"Suppose you'll be wanting yours Harry." says Gia. She carefully removes the hot dog and places it onto the grill.

"Gia, if you want any of my juices." says Harry.

"There is one thing I do want when you're ready." says Gia. She grabs Harry's soft member and smiles.

Harry says, "Let's make sure we're not ticketed for lewd behavior."

Brian replies, "Harry this is a preserve not subject to that local ordinance. While others might object, its legal as some constables found out last year."

"They come up here?"

"Only if somebody complains. Our timing sucked and we should've known better. We were up here during that summer solstice festival and it was rather crowded."

Finally, Gia places the hot dogs into the buns. She hands one to Harry.

Harry bites into his, savors it, and says, "Nice flavor Gia."

They continue grilling more hot dogs and eating the other things. They brought things like potato chips, soda, and juice. Things settle down on the grill. They cleanup and head back to their towel.

At the towel, Harry and Gia sit down facing each other.

Brian says, "Um, Celeste would prefer to sleep in the car. It's already nine thirty. Will you two be fine up here?"

"Certainly." says the wide eyed Harry.

"We'll be back sometime in the morning." says Celeste.

"Have a nice night." says Gia.

Brian and Celeste head off.

* * * Wine * * *

"You're looking at me funny." says Gia.

Harry says innocently, "Oh, am I? I'm Just watching the beauty around me."

"So, what are you thinking?"

"Some wine would complement this."

"Did you bring some?"

Harry rummages in his backpack. He brings out two crystal glasses, a bottle of white wine, and a pocket knife. He hands a glass to Gia and uses the corkscrew of the knife to open the bottle. Harry pours wine over his penis and it dribbles into Gia's cup.

Gia says, "Adding flavor?"

"Compliments of your father." says Harry.

"He gave you wine?" asks Gia.

"Yes, I guess he thought we would enjoy it. I've got several cases in there." says Harry.

Gia says, "Hmm, too bad Brian didn't know. That's one of the reasons he likes to return to the car at night."

"The other?"

"They don't like sleeping outside in the wilderness. It frightens them. Celeste more so."

"This wine would only go so far then."

Gia says, "Pretty much. Another bottle?"

"Lets keep it to just the one; otherwise we'd get drunk. If you want juice, soda, or water, that's fine."

Harry gets out the huge sleeping bag and large pillow.

"Already?" asks Gia.

Harry says, "No, just thought I'd get them out. When we get cold, we'll slip in. Jeez, this looks big."

"Yes, it's the big couple model, very roomy and warm."

Gia shivers a bit.

"You're cold. Let's slip in anyways and stay awake for a while." says Harry.

Gia and Harry slip into the sleeping bag. Harry places the pack inside.

Gia asks, "You're bringing that in?"

"I can't afford to lose it. Besides, we still have plenty of room."

Harry shoves the pack toward the foot of the extra long sleeping bag.

"See? Big." says Gia.

Harry and Gia lay there staring up into the darkening sky. Gia wraps her arm about Harry. Harry's left fingers drift, and start playing around Gia's naval.

Harry remarks, "Those shades are interesting."

"Pretty."

They gaze for a while.

Harry says, "So, what was your favorite Christmas gift? Mine has to be the Firebolt."

"Hmm... You Harry."

"Actually, you're probably mine, if I think of you as a gift."

"What was the worst thing you did in primary school? In kindergarten, I ticked off Hermione and somehow I peed uncontrollably. The stain in the carpet is probably still there."

"Turned the teacher's hair blue."

"Have you tried your hair in a different style? Dye it?"

"No, but Aunt Petunia tried and never succeeded. Once she cut it all off, but it grew back by the next morning."

"Sounds like we could have fun. Wanna try a blue Mohawk? Or bright orange spikes?"

"Might try it if you want to see the results. Let's see, we could spike yours to ward off sex thieves."

Gia snorts at that and says, "So what animal do you dislike the most? I hate rats."

"A beetle."

"All beetles?"

"Just one in particular, although there is a rat named Scabbers that should avoid me too."

"You've named them?"

"No, others did that. Some wizards can transform into animals. They're called Animagus. McGonagall for instance can be a cat. You've met Snuffles. Anyways that beetle and rat are people who've crossed me."

"So, besides Animagus, which animal?"

"Hmm... For all creatures, Demeantors would be it. For animals.... dunno, they don't seem that scary. Favorite school subject?

"Drama. You?"

"Hagrid's class. Though it would be Quidditch if that were a class. Favorite color?"

"Green of your eyes. Favorite smell?" Gia is stroking Harry's right armpit.

"You." says Harry yawning. His eyelids droop and close.

Gia pulls the sleeping bag over them and she falls asleep.
