A/N: Today we'll be looking at the majestic Gryphon or Griffin. I've seen it spelt both ways but I think the latter spelling is the right one for this. It also got me thinking, why are there no Hippogriffs. I mean they're just like Griffins except they have hooves instead of paws. In fact, that's probably how you can design it. I suppose you might have to change the personality a bit so that they aren't the same as Griffins.
Also I don't know if I'll get this before then, but I've been writing this story for over a year now. I feel like I've grown a lot as a writer in that time. I still could always improve, but I'm pretty happy with how I've been doing.
Chapter 77
I'm Peter McClellan, I work for a distribution company. It's not very exciting, I just sit at a computer all day and type routes for the delivery trucks and make occasionally phone calls. The office I work at isn't very crowded, there's only four of us myself included.
The other three are Marco, he does the same job as me. Marco was a bit of a smart ass who I got the sense that he would rather be anywhere other than here. I suspect that he stays because it's an easy job that doesn't require a lot of work.
Willis, who is are secretary and accountant. Typically nerdy type guy, doesn't seem very social. Marco busts his chops about being a virgin at 27. I try to keep each of them from going at each other's throat, but I'm not getting paid to babysit two grown men.
And finally George Townley our boss. He's a bit of a hard ass at times, but who's boss isn't? Though I'd say he's reasonable fair. However I don't know a lot about him, outside of his personality and the fact he's been working for the company about twenty-five years or so. I do know he's married and has three daughters, but he rarely talks about them. I don't think he keeps pictures of them in his office.
"My girls are all at home, why would I need them here at work?" he once told me.
It was a usual day at the office, except that George seemed a little distracted today. He wasn't very talkative, more so than usual and that was after he had his usual cup of coffee.
"You think the boss is doing okay?" Willis asked me.
"Don't know, you think it's health problems?" I asked.
"Doubtful, George has always been as healthy as an ox and often times just as stubborn." Willis said.
"What're you ladies talking about?" Marco asked.
"George. You noticed how different he's become?" I asked him.
"Nope, he seems like his usual self." he answered.
Just then, the door to George's office opened and he came out. We returned to work and acted as if we were busy.
"Boys, can I have your attention?" George announced.
We gathered around him.
"What's up boss?" I asked.
"You boys have been working really hard for me and I wanted to reward you for your efforts." he said.
"You're gonna give us a raise?" Marco asked.
"You wish. No, I want take you boys on a little camping trip this weekend." George said.
"Is this mandatory?" Willis asked.
"No, but I'd like for you to come. I got a site picked out and everything." George said.
"We'll think about sir." I said.
"Alright, return to work." George said returning to his office.
"Are you out of your fucking mind!?! 'We'll think about it?', what the fuck Pete!" Marco snapped.
"What? George is offering to take on vacation." I said.
"Yeah in the middle of the woods. We don't know anything about him, what if he is some kind of psycho killer?" he asked.
"Come on Marco, George isn't like that." I said.
"It does seem weird that he's doing this right out of the blue." Willis commented.
"And the woods is the perfect place to hide our bodies!" Marco added.
"Come on guys, I say we go. George got us these jobs, the least we could do is go on this trip with him." I said.
"I suppose you're right..." Willis mumbled.
"Fine! But if George comes at us with an axe, I'm leaving both of you and I ain't looking back." Marco said.
The weekend came and loaded up whatever I needed. A tent, a few changes of clothes, and cooler of food. George said he'd be happy to provide for us, but I insisted that I bring a few other things along.
I drove to the camp site where Willis and Marco were already waiting. The only one I didn't notice was George. I pulled up and got out of my car.
"Hey, where's George?" I asked.
"I texted him, said he'll be here. Although, the way he phrased it was weird." Willis said.
"How so?" I asked.
"He used 'he'll' instead of 'I'll'. Almost like he's not alone." he said.
"I'm telling you he's a killer. We should leave before he shows up." Marco said.
"Are you still going on about this? If he is a killer then why would he bring someone with him?" Willis asked.
"He could have a partner to help dispose of our bodies." Marco said.
"Fuck off with your killer theory Marco, George is a nice guy who wants to do something nice for us." I said.
"You and Captain Virgin can stay here and die. Me, I'm going back to civilization." Marco said going to his car.
Just as he got in, an RV pulled in the site. Once it stopped, George came out of it.
"Boys, you made it! What's Marco doing?" he asked noticing that Marco was inside his car.
"Heyyyy boss, I was just getting my uh...flashlight! Just wanted to make sure that I can take a shit at night!" Marco said pulling a small flashlight from his glove box.
"So chief, what's with the RV?" I asked.
"Oh that, well here's the thing...you see..." he began.
"Dad! Where are the batteries!" a voice from inside the RV called out.
A woman hanged out of the doorway of the RV. She looked young, probably in her early to mid 20s. She had long chestnut brown hair tied into a side ponytail, and she was wearing a white tank top and cut off jean shorts. But the one thing that drew my attention the most was the eagle wings and talons and the fact her legs were lion's paws.
She looked at the three of us, more specifically Marco and she bit down on talon in an almost seductive manner.
"They're in the right hand drawer furthest from the sink. Why?" George asked turning back to her.
"Um...on second thought, I don't think I'll need them." she said.
"Okay, can you do me a favor sweetie? Can you tell your mother and sisters not to use sink or bathroom until I can hook the water up?" he asked.
"Okay, are uh...these your work friends?" she asked.
"Oh, I haven't introduced you. Boys, this is Ashley. She's my youngest. Ash, this is Peter, Willis, and Marco." George said pointing at each of us.
"Hi!" Ashley said seductively, waving at Marco.
"If you need the bathroom there's one about a couple minutes down the road." George said to her and went around to the other side of the RV.
"Fine, I hate public bathrooms, but I gotta piss like a racehorse. I sure could use some company." Ashley said coming out of the RV and clinging to Marco's arm.
"I...I would be very interested in that." Marco stammered.
"Alright, just give me a minute." she said returning into the RV.
'You still think he's trying to kill us?' I whispered to Marco.
"Maybe he's trying to lull me into a false sense of security." he suggested.
"Okay, ready to go Marcus?" Ashley asked coming out of the RV.
"My name is Marco, but you can call me whatever you want." he said going off with Ashley.
"Weird." Willis commented.
"Not really, she wasn't very subtle about liking Marco." I said.
"No, I find it weird how George never told us that he was married to a Griffin." he said.
"His one daughter is a Griffin. That doesn't mean he's married to one. She could be an Echidna." I said.
Another woman emerged from the RV. She was also a Griffin, but looked older than Ashley. She had long black hair and wore a pair of glasses along with a dull blue turtleneck sweater and a pair of gray pants.
"Excuse me gentlemen, do you know where my father is?" she asked.
"Around the other side. I think he's hooking up the water and septic system." I said.
"Okay, thank you." she said.
"I'm Peter, I work for your father." I said extending my hand out.
"Hello Peter, I'm Cassidy." she said shaking my hand.
"And you?" she asked turning to Willis.
"W-Willis." he stammered blushing profusely.
"Hello Willis, I hope it's not inconvenient that we're on this trip with you." Cassidy said.
"Oh no, it's...it's fine." he stammered.
"Very well, I hope to see you again later." she said returning into the RV.
"Dude you okay?" I asked.
"Huh, what? Yeah, I'm fine." Willis said.
"Really? Because you look like you're blushing a little." I said.
"N-no, it's just...a little nippy out today that's all." he stammered.
"Mm-hm. Sure it is." I said.
"I'm going to pitch my tent." he said walking over to his car.
I went around the side of the RV and found George hooking up some tubes to the side of his RV.
"Hey boss, need any help?" I asked.
"Why, trying to get a raise out of it?" he asked jokingly.
"Not unless you're giving one." I answered coyly.
"Nice try smart ass, but I'm almost finished." he said.
"So, Griffins; what's that like?" I asked.
"Hee, the molting can be a problem." he said jokingly.
"I can't imagine." I said smirking a bit.
"I swear, I've seen stories on the web about guys talking about how much their Harpy girlfriend or wife molts. Meanwhile, I'm sitting there being all: Try leaving with four Griffins, it's like your swimming in the stuff." he said.
"I suspect that money isn't a problem when it comes to donating the feathers." I said.
"Oh absolutely, Griffin feathers have high quality to them. A bit more corse than Harpy feathers, but very warm." he said.
"So, how come you never mentioned them?" I asked.
"I'm not a very public guy. I try to keep my work and home life separate. Plus, the 'how we met story' isn't exactly a normal one." he said.
"Can I hear it?" I asked.
George looked at me with a smirk.
"Maybe later, now, can you do me a favor? I need to tighten the hoses out here. can you go inside and get my toolbox for me?" he asked.
"You sure your wife or daughters won't mind?" I asked.
"Wife's taking a nap in the back. And I told them that we were going to spend the weekend together." he said.
"I think Marco and Ashley might be spending alot time together." I said.
"God lord, really?" he asked.
"Oh yeah, she was flirting with him and she was not subtle about it." I said.
"*sigh* Go fucking figure." he said shaking his head.
I went back around and inside the RV. Pretty spacious, kinda looked like a tour bus that some rock band would be traveling in. Cassidy was sitting at a table reading a book. I don't think she noticed I walked in. A woman came out from the back of the RV.
She wasn't George's wife since she looked much younger than that. So she must've been his third daughter. She had long dark brown hair tied into a ponytail, and wore a denim jacket over a white tank top, and a pair of jeans with knees ripped.
"Can I help you?" she asked scanning me with a cold gaze.
"Uh, hi. I'm Peter, I work with your father. he asked me to get his toolbox for him." I said trying not to seem intimidated by her steely gaze.
She said nothing and crouched down and opened up a cabinet. She took out a black toolbox and shoved it at me.
"Here." she said no amount of emotion in her voice.
"Thank you? I'm sorry, did I do something to offend? Because you sound annoyed with me." I asked.
"No." she answered, but still seemed annoyed.
"Okay...I'll just get this to your dad." I said, hesitantly exiting the RV.
I returned to George toolbox in hand still feeling a little rattled by my encounter with his third daughter.
"Hey I got the toolbox you wanted." I said giving it to him.
"Good, hope you didn't have trouble finding it." he said digging into it and taking a wrench out.
"Naw, your daughter help me." I said.
"Cassidy?" he asked.
"No, the other one. I didn't get her name." I said.
"Oh Hailey, she's a sweetheart isn't she?" he asked.
"Sweetheart is not the word I would use. It seemed like the moment she laid eyes on me it's like she hated my guts." I said.
"That's weird, Hailey can be stubborn and maybe temperamental at times. But I've never known her to actively hate someone." he said.
"Well that's the impression I got." I said.
"Maybe I should go talk..." he said setting down his wrench.
"No, no. That'll only make things worse. Maybe she's in a bad mood because she has go on this trip." I said.
"Not possible, my girls love going camping...well Ash not as much. But Hailey was really excited about this." he said.
"Well whatever I did must've soured her mood." I said.
"If you don't want me to talk to her fine, but if she gives you any problems just let me know. You boys are like the sons I never had." he said placing a hand on my shoulder.
"Even Marco?" I asked amusingly.
"Maybe not as much, but yeah." he answered.
I left George to his work and returned to the front of the RV. Willis finished setting up his tent. Hailey was setting up an awning on the side of the RV. I ignored her and got my tent out of my car.
As I did, Marco and Ashley returned from whatever they were up to.
"And right now I'm off from college right now and I'll be finishing it next year." Ashley said as they returned.
"Uh-huh, and you mentioned a tattoo you got?" Marco asked.
"Oh you mean this?" she asked lifting her shirt up reveling a few curved black lines with a heart on either side of it on her lower back.
"Awesome." Macro said.
"Yeah, got that last year during spring break. Parents got super pissed about it. I have another one." she said.
"Can I see that one too?" he asked.
"That one's in a super private place. But if you're a good boy, maybe I'll show that and more." she said wrapping her arms around Marco's neck.
"Oh ho ho. I'm going to be on my best behavior." he said grinning like an idiot.
"I hope not too much good behavior." she said and returned to the RV swaying her hips a lot more than any woman normally does.
"Okay, I'm still not convinced that George isn't going to kill. But if he does, I least want to pump a load into his fine ass daughter." he said to me.
"I think he will kill you if you do." I said.
"You just jealous that I got dibs on the daughter who's down to fuck." he said.
"Dibs? Seriously? She's been eyeing you up like you were a two dollar buffet." I said.
"Still, anyway, I going to set my tent up. Preferably near the RV so Ash can get easy access to me." he said walking over to his car.
I returned to setting up my own tent. As I was doing so, Hailey came up to me. Still bearing her usual cold look to me.
"Need any help?" she asked.
"Well, since you're offering. I could use someone to help get the stakes in." I said.
Hailey turned around and went behind the RV. She came back a moment later carrying a hammer. She went behind me and started hammering stakes into the ground.
"So...your dad tells me that you like camping." I said.
Hailey stopped hammering for a moment and sighed.
"Yeah, I do." she said.
"That's...cool. Do you go camping a lot?" I asked.
"Not as much when we were younger. Cassidy and dad are busy with work and Ash is still in college." she said returning to her hammering.
"What about you?" I asked.
"I'm...in between jobs at the moment." she said hesitantly.
"Oh, okay. Uh, thanks for helping me by the way." I said.
"Yeah...whatever." she said hammering her last stake in and went back to the RV.
I finished setting up my tent, by the time I was done the sun was just beginning to set. George had the fire pit going and there was a string of lights on the RV's awning turned on.
I was getting my pack of clothes and sleeping bag out of my car when another Griffin emerged from the RV.
She must've been George's wife since she was only one I hadn't seen and her once brown hair was starting to turn gray. Yet still looked like a bombshell. George (who was sitting in a chair) waved me over.
"Boys, I'd like you to meet my wife Clara. Clara, these are my boys." he said.
"It's nice to meet all of you." she said.
"Likewise ma'am." Willis said.
"Anything you want me to make for tonight?" Clara asked turning to George.
"Actually ma'am, I have a cooler with some steaks in it." I said.
Just as I said that Ashley popped her head of the RV.
"Did someone say steaks! I fucking love steak." she said.
"Yeah, I did! In fact, I brought the steak." Marco said.
"Oh my god, I think love you." Ashley said.
"I even brought a cooler with beer in it." Marco said.
"Oh my god, I love love more." Ashley said.
"What the fuck?" I asked offended.
"Just let him let him have this." Willis said.
"But I bought them." I said.
I tossed my pack of clothes and sleeping bag in my tent and begrudgingly got my cooler out of my car.
"Here you go ma'am. Marco's precious meat." I said handing Clara the cooler.
"Very sorry for what you're friend did." she said politely.
"It's fine, Marco's always been kinda a dick." I said.
"I'm gonna fry these babies up. It's the least I could do." she said taking the cooler.
"Thank you ma'am." I said.
"Peter please, call me Clara." she said.
"Okay...Clara. Are you and girls going to eat with us?" I asked.
"No, we'll just eat inside, you boys deserve your time together. Besides, you do not want to see Ashley eat through a steak. I swear it's just like when she was a baby, always getting food near her mouth never in it." she said heading back inside.
I went over to the fire pit where the rest of the guys were.
"Hope you brought enough steak there Peter." George said as I sat down.
"Well there's eight of them I figured that would be enough for the four of us, but I guess all eight of them are getting used up tonight." I said.
"Sorry, I should've mentioned I was bringing the girls with me." he said.
"It's fine." I said.
"Speaking of which, how did you get a Griffin for a wife?" Willis asked.
"It's...a long story." George said.
"We've got time, not like we have anything better to do." Marco said.
"Okay, well it started some thirty years ago. I was young, full of piss and vinegar as my dad would say. Me and two other guys met this guy Hastings. Hastings had a job that needed three guys to pull off. We were going to this mountain top ruin where there was unspeakable treasure. He would provide the gear and all we had to do was show up." George said.
"Did you get this treasure?" Marco asked.
"In a sense. We reached the ruins, all four of us had rifles since there was talk of Griffins at this place. But Samuel, one of guys got picked off first, followed by Franklin. After that it was me and Hastings. We stood back to back and prayed that we could take down one of the Griffins. But Hastings got snatched and I was left alone. I backed myself into a wall and a Griffin dropped in front of me. As she got closer, I aimed my rifle and pulled the trigger...and nothing. At first I thought it was jammed, but there were no bullets in the gun in the first place." George said.
"Then what happened?" I asked.
"The Griffin smacked the gun out of my hands and flew off with me." George continued.
"So wait, this Hastings guy gave you a empty gun? That's fucked up." Marco commented.
"Well the twist is the four Griffins were Hastings' wife and daughters, he tricked us into coming with him so he could marry off his daughters." George said.
"So there wasn't any treasure?" I asked.
"Oh no there was, not a lot, but enough so me and the other two guys could live out comfortably with our wives." George said.
"You agreed to marry them? Even after the deception?" Willis asked.
"Well, the marriage was the only way to get the money. Plus we were young and needed money. But I wouldn't say that it was only about the money. I actually enjoy my life with my wife." George said.
"Steaks are done boys." Clara said carrying out four plates.
"Thanks babe, hey, I love you." George said taking a plate.
"Love you too." Clara said kissing him.
We finished our dinner and went off to bed. Although, I couldn't help but think about the story George told. But maybe I'm just over thinking things.
The next morning, I woke up, and found Willis talking with Cassidy.
"Morning." I said approaching them.
"Oh good morning." Willis said.
"I'm thinking of taking a walk, you want to come with me?" I asked.
"I uh...I think I'll stay at camp." Willis said.
"Oh, okay. Where's Marco maybe he'd like to go?" I asked.
"I think he already left with Ashley." Willis said.
"Alright, I'll just go by myself." I said.
"Perhaps I can get Hailey to join?" Cassidy asked.
"Join in what?" Hailey asked stepping out of the RV.
"Peter here was going on a walk. I was going to ask you if you wanted go with him." Cassidy said.
"You know, she doesn't have go if she doesn't want to and I'm okay with going by myself." I said.
"Alright, I'll go." Hailey said.
I left the site with Hailey in complete silence for the past few minutes. I didn't know what to say to her. Hailey's been given her usual icy glare, luckily it wasn't being aimed at me.
"So, uh, how you've been enjoying the trip so far?" I asked.
"It's alright." she said.
"Good, good...hey listen. If there's something bothering you, you can tell me if you want." I said.
"What? Nothing's wrong, why would you think that?" she asked.
"Because you've looked like you've wanted to kill me ever since we met." I said.
"What are you talking about?" she asked.
"Your expression, it's a little upsetting." I said.
"You've got a problem with my face?" she asked.
"No, no, absolutely not. But it wouldn't hurt if you smiled a bit." I said.
"Like this?" she asked forcing a smile on her face. Now she looked like she wants to skin me and wear my flesh like a suit.
"Um...something like that." I said.
"Sorry, I just had one of those faces. It's probably why I never had a boyfriend." she said staring at the ground.
"I should be sorry. Here I thought you hated me, but turns out you're just like this." I said.
"Is that bad?" she asked.
"No, I guess it does take some getting used to, but it's not bad." I answered.
"Thanks...you know, this is the longest conversation I've held with a guy." she said.
"Ever?" I asked.
"Well, a conversation with a guy who wasn't my dad." she said.
I noticed her cheeks turned a slight red color. It made her look cute honestly.
"So, what do you do?" she asked.
"I work with your father." I said.
"Oh...I forgot..." she murmured and cheeks darkened a deeper red.
"It's fine, what do you do?" I asked.
"I told you...I'm between jobs right now." she said.
"Oh...right. Well, what do you want to do?" I asked.
Hailey stopped dead in her tracks. Her face twist in a look of confusion.
"I...I don't know. Nobody's ever asked me that before." she said.
"Not even your parents?" I asked.
"No, I don't think they expect much from me. Middle child ya know?" she said.
"Well is there anything you're passionate about?" I asked.
"I like to paint..." she said softly.
"About what?" I asked.
"Landscapes. I guess mostly because of how often dad would take us camping." she said.
"Do you want to pursue it as a career?" I asked.
"I don't know, maybe. I just don't know if I'm good enough to do that." she said.
"Could you show them to me?" I asked.
"Well, I don't really have any of them. But I did took a few pictures of them." she said pulling her phone out of her pocket.
She began showing a few pictures of her paintings. I'm not much of an art critic or anything like that, but they looked pretty good.
"The lighting is not really good, and the quality of the paints I used weren't the best, and..." Hailey rambled.
"These are good." I said.
"What?" she questioned.
"Your paintings. I'm no artist myself so I don't know much about art. But they look pretty good." I said.
"Wow, my family always said they were good, but I just thought they were being nice. But uh...thanks." she said blushing and smiling at me, and it didn't seem like it was a forced smile either.
As we continued our walk I heard a noise further up the path.
"Aw yeah! You're so fucking tight!" a voice shouted.
I recognized the voice, it was Marco.
"You hear that?" Hailey asked.
"Yeah, it came from over there." I said.
We went off the path a bit coming to the edge of a river. Right next to the river was Marco and Ashley. They were both pants less Marco thrusting vigorously into Ashley who was on all fours.
"Yes! Oh yes! I fucking knew you were the best choice!" Ashley moaned.
"You fucking know it babe." Marco said slapping her butt.
"Oh shit, slap my ass again!" Ashley begged.
'Ugh, I believe they're doing it out in the open.' Hailey whispered to me.
'I know right? We should leave, hopefully a park ranger will chastise them for having sex in the park.' I whispered back.
We returned to the path and returned to our camp site. Willis and Cassidy were no longer at the table they were sitting at. Maybe they also went on a walk, don't know why they just come with us but whatever.
"Hey, thanks for the walk. Really put some things in perspective for me." Hailey said.
"You're welcome. I'm glad that you're not mad at me." I said.
"Again, I was never mad at you. But I appreciate the help nevertheless." she said and returned to the RV.
I went back to my tent, and just as was passing Willis' tent I heard a noise from inside.
"Oh wow...they're quite big..." a voice said, sounded like Willis.
"Would you like to touch them?" another voice asked, this one sounded like Cassidy.
"S-sure, like this?" he asked.
"Mmm, yes! Just like that." she moaned.
"I've never done this before, wow, they're very soft!" Willis said in astonishment.
"It's okay, you're doing fine. Just...oh...don't stop!" she moaned.
Weird, but at least Willis has the decency to not have sex in the open. Plus, maybe Marco will lay off Willis for not being a virgin. But knowing Marco he'll probably tease Willis about something else.
Later that evening, I was laying awake wondering why Willis and Marco were having sex with George's daughters. Well, maybe less so with Marco, but Willis? I feel like there was something off about this trip. Suddenly, I heard moment outside my tent.
"Peter, it's me Hailey. Can I come in?" she asked.
"Uh, sure. Come in." I said.
Hailey opened the flap to my tent and crawled inside. I couldn't see her too well, but I think she was wearing a tank top and pajama bottoms.
"Hey, uh...thanks for the walk early today. It was really nice." she said.
"You're welcome, but you didn't come to me in the middle of night to tell me that." I said.
"Well yeah, uh...I want to tell you something. I uh...I actually don't hate you." she said.
"I know, we discussed that earlier." I said.
"No, I mean...*sigh* fuck it!" she said.
Suddenly Hailey knocked me to the ground and forcefully kissed me. Once she parted her lips from mine she turned to flap of my tent.
"I'm actually in love with you. I know we just met yesterday, but I actually fell in love with you when my dad hired you. He showed me and my sisters a picture of the three and I felt heart beating wildly. I doubt you feel the same, but I just wanted to let you know that." she said.
Just as she was about to leave, I grabbed her wrist and pinned her to the ground.
"What the hell are you doing!?! Get off me!" she demanded.
"Not yet, first I need to pay you back for that kiss you gave me." I said.
"Oh? How?" she asked the anger in her voice being replaced by curiosity.
I didn't answer, at least not verbally. I kissed her, with less force than she did. As I kissed her I heard a slight moan come from her.
"There, how was that?" I asked.
"Pretty good. But I know something better we could do." she said.
"And what's that?" I asked.
Suddenly she flipped me over onto my back.
"I'd liked to be on top for this." she said.
We kissed passionately, and feverishly began stripping off our clothes. Once the last few pieces of fabric was removed I grabbed her buttocks and brought her crotch closer to mine. This caused us to start dry humping each other like horny teenagers.
"Oh shit! Put that big ol' cock inside me!" Hailey moaned as she raked her talons through my hair.
I could feel my penis throb violently. I reached down and slid my pulsating member right into her quivering lower lips. Hailey gasped with every inch that went into her.
Once inside, I thrusted slowly at first. Letting Hailey get a feel for my size. Her moans were soft and I don't think that she wanted to raise her volume, not unless she wanted to wake up our site.
I kept thrusting gradually picking up speed. Hailey's hips moved in sync with mine. Hailey moved to my neck and began to suck and bite on the exposed flesh. I shuttered as a mix of intense pain and pleasure coursed through my body.
My fingers dug into her buttocks, as my other hand moved to one of her breasts. I fondled the mound allowing Hailey to moan into my neck. I was so close to cumming, and judging by how wet Hailey had gotten, so was she.
"Hailey, I'm so close." I said.
"Yeah, me too. Don't stop." she said.
Soon I exploded inside of her, pumping a large amount of cum into her. Hailey gripped a claw full of my hair and bit on her lip to stifle her moans. Once we rode out our respective orgasms we stared at each other laying in a hot sweaty mess on the floor of my tent. Eventually we were consumed by waves of fatigue and drifted off to sleep.
The next morning I woke up, Hailey was still asleep so I guess we did have sex last night. I got dressed and let Hailey continue to sleep. Upon leaving my tent, I found that George was also awake.
"Mornin' Peter." he said as I was leaving my tent.
"Morning George. I didn't expect you to be up this early." I said.
"Figured I'd go for a little walk, loosen up my joints." he said.
"You mind if I join you?" I asked.
"Not at all." he said.
I walked with George, we were around the park for a bit. It was still early so most of the other campers were still sleeping.
"So, how've been enjoying the trip?" George asked me.
"It's fine, thanks for inviting us." I said.
"Of course, like I said before you boys are like the sons I never had." he said.
"George, what's really going on? I mean you brought us out here and don't get me wrong, I've enjoyed every minute of it. But I feel like there was some ulterior motive behind this whole thing." I said.
George stopped and released a long sigh.
"I was going to tell you three when the time came, but...I'm uh...I'm retiring at the end of the year." he said.
"What!?! Why? Is everything okay?" I asked.
"Yes! Absolutely! It's just...I'm getting old and I've been working at the distribution center for a long time and I miss spending time with my family." he said.
"Okay but, what did you take us camping?" I asked.
"The camping trip was more of an excuse to get you three to meet my daughters. They're all getting older and ready to leave the nest, so I figured I could introduce them to some fine young men, men I could trust. And given how the six of you spent yesterday together I say that it was a success." he said.
"How could you have known that it would turn out well?" I asked.
"I hired the three of you remember? I know that types of things you are into. I knew Willis was the intellectual type who was into reading. During his interview I asked what types of books he was into and he answered the works of Ronald S. Berryman. Which is also Cassie's favorite author. Marco I knew from the second he opened his mouth that he'd get along with Ashley. Of course, the things that often came out of his mouth made me wish for someone else." he explained.
"I guess that makes sense, but what about me?" I asked.
"You? I knew that you were the right guy for Hailey. I know that she's in a bit of a funk lately, and if there was anyone that can get her out of it, it would be someone of strong mind and equally strong character." he said.
"And you think I'm that guy?" I questioned.
"Yeah, I was also thinking of promoting you my position. If you want it." he said.
"I'm honored sir, but...are you sure?" I asked.
"Absolutely. I fairly confident that you boys will do right by my girls." he said.
"And if hypothetically if I or either Willis or Marco refuses, then what?" I asked.
"I know this is sudden and I didn't think you'd say yes, but I just want what's best for my girls. I love them, and I only want what's best for them. I guess I didn't think this through huh?" he asked.
"A little, but I think I understand where you're coming from and I can't say if I love Hailey yet, but I don't think that will take long." I said.
"See, I knew you were the right guy for Hailey." he said putting his arm around me.
"So do I call you dad?" I asked jokingly.
"Don't push it. Bad enough that you're getting my office." he said.
"That was your decision." I argued playfully.
"I know, and I'm starting to regret it." he said.
Later, George announced to Willis and Marco his intentions for the trip and that was retiring. They were both surprisingly okay with everything and thanked him for all he's done for them.
George retired as he planned and I was left in charge. Willis was the first of us to get married and even had a daughter before us. I expected Marco to hound Willis for a kid, but he was surprisingly supportive of him. Even went to Willis when he had his kid with Ashley.
As for myself I did get married to Hailey and she was painting as she wanted. Nothing to go into museums or art galleries yet, but she still enjoyed it.
Now that I was in charge I had to find someone to fill in my old spot. I managed to get this guy Cooper to come in for an interview.
"So Cooper, why do you want to work for a distribution company?" I asked.
"Seems like an easy job." he said.
"I can assure you that it's not." I said.
"Look sir, I don't expect much of me but I'm a hard worker and I'm ready for anything. I just need something to get some easy cash. My girlfriend is pregnant and I want to get her a nice house and a wedding so we can be a family." he said.
"Do you love her?" I asked.
"Absolutely, that's why I'm getting this job. For her." he said.
"Well...I can't say that the money will be easy. But you'll be able to get that house and wedding if you work hard." I said.
"Thank you sir! You won't regret this!" he said shaking my hand.
Cooper's eyes turned to a painting on the wall.
"Excuse me sir, but where did you get that?" he asked pointing to the painting.
"My wife painted it. Gave it to me to hang in the office, why?" I asked.
"It's just that...it's a stunning piece. Very vibrant. She must be real proud of it." he said.
I turned around to the picture and smiled.
"Yeah, I'm pretty sure she is." I said.
