Chapter 15: The Snohomish River

On Tuesday Ben and John were able to sleep in again to finally recover from their trip, but in the evening they had tickets for the Mariners’ game. Ben didn’t want to drive all the way downtown, so they took the Link rail from the Northgate Park and Ride. After watching the Mariners beat the A’s, Ben wanted to talk to John about their plans for the next day.

Ben looked over at John in his Cub’s shirt sitting next to him on the train. “So tomorrow I had a hike planned up in Snohomish, but it’s not exactly a walk in the park, you didn’t happen to bring your hiking boots with you?”

John shook his head. “Nope, just these basketball shoes. I don’t think I’ve used those boots since Utah.”

“That’s ok, I’ll figure something out.” Ben pondered for a second. “My dad has smaller feet than me, but I think Evan is your size.”

“How do you know Evan’s shoe size?” John laughed and rolled his eyes. “Oh, did I even need to ask that question, you’ve probably been in his shoe closet too!”

Ben’s face went a tiny bit red as he took out his phone and started to message Evan.

Ben: Hey, are you still awake?

Evan: Yeah, just packing for Cali, what’s up B?

Ben: 😡 I thought I said to never call me B!

Evan: Sorry, force of habit, I just saw Easton this afternoon too.

Ben: 🙄 anyway, I’m taking John up to Lord Hill in the morning, can he borrow your hiking boots? We can stop by on the way home from the M’s game.

Evan: That’s fine, just don’t take too long to get here, you know what time I wake up.

Ben: Yeah, we’ll be there soon, just at Capitol Hill on the train, then driving home from Northgate.

Evan: WTF? Train? Are you still 16??

Ben put this phone down and smiled wide at John. “He said yes, I think.”

As Ben pulled into Evan’s sloped driveway John was impressed; whatever Evan’s parents did to afford this massive home with a 3-car garage, they must both be earning well into the six figures.

Ben pulled out his phone and texted Evan. Here.

After a couple of minutes, the larger of the two garage doors opened, revealing a Tesla Model Y and a BMW Coupe, with Evan standing at the wall stretching and covering his mouth yawning. Inside the brightly lit garage, John could see Evan was wearing a white ‘Meadowdale 2022’ t-shirt, red plaid pajama pants, and slippers.

The boys got out of their Subaru and met Evan inside, John almost tripping on the charging cord of the Tesla.

“Careful!” Evan groaned. “You’re lucky it’s you Ben, it’s almost 10:30 and this is one of the few times you’ve asked my permission for something out of my closet. Evan disappeared into the adjoining mudroom and came back with a pair of brown Merrel mid-cut hiking boots from his scouting career handing them to John. “Size 11?” Evan shrugged.

John nodded. “Yep, figure I should quickly try them on?” He kicked off his white Nike basketball shoes to show off his navy blue Nike Elite socks before putting on the boots and walking around the garage in them, taking care not to trip over the charging cord this time.

“Looks like they’ll do, thanks Evan, I’ll bring them back after you get back from San Diego.” Ben stretched and yawned as well.

“No rush.” Evan watched John take the boots off and put back on his shoes.

“I guess I won’t see you anymore Evan? Thank you for showing me around, hope I can come back to Seattle soon.” John shook Evan’s hand and went in for a hug.

“Hey!” Evan exclaimed as he backed away. “You don’t get to go back to Wisconsin that easy, Johnny! I’m back from Cali next Tuesday, my parents wanted to invite both of you and Ben’s parents over for dinner that night if you have nothing planned. It’s the day before you fly back right?”

John looked at Ben. “Yeah, we’re free that night,” Ben replied.  “I’ll let my parents know of the invite. We’ll let you get to bed now, good luck to you and your crew, and have fun in San Diego, it’s like your 3rd time there for rowing, right?”

“Yeah, thankfully we’re not staying at the Ramada this time. Anyway, good night boys have a nice hike.” Evan waved them goodbye and closed the garage door behind them as they made their way back to their car and the short drive home.

On Wednesday morning, standing at the open bedroom door of Ben’s room, Sophia looked at her son and what she hoped was her future son-in-law asleep together in their new bed. “Benji,” she walked over to the bed and shook him lightly on the shoulder. “I’m off to work, it’s 7:30, don’t forget to bring something for you both to eat for your hike. Love you boys.” Sophia quickly left the room leaving the two to get ready for the day alone.

Ben rolled out of bed in the black and yellow UA shorts and a plain white t-shirt, then pulled back the covers from John to wake him up. John rolled over and stretched his arms out still in bed, he was wearing his navy blue UA shorts and a blue t-shirt with a Culver’s logo on the chest.

The covers now off, John’s very visible morning wood was tenting in the shorts against the nylon fabric. With a naughty look on his face, John pulled his cock out from the bottom of the shorts for Ben to get a nice look at. Ben crawled back into the bed and held the exposed hard dick in his hand before kissing John on the lips. “Not right now.” Ben said looking into John’s eyes. “Save it for later, I have something planned for today, I’ll tell you on the trail when we get there.” He blushed and tucked John back into the shorts before getting back out of bed to slip off his shorts and change into a pair of blue Patagonia boxer briefs.

“What’s better than your warm lips around my morning wood?” John whined, he was still horny and the wake-up kiss certainly didn’t help with making his hard-on disappear.

“You’ll see, anyway, I picked out a trail with less traffic for a reason.” Ben smiled as he took off his t-shirt and put on an REI light gray moisture-wicking long-sleeve shirt.

Still in bed, John pulled off the navy blue shorts and threw them at Ben still frustrated, before marching off toward the bathroom. “When I say you make me want to blow way too soon that doesn’t mean you can leave me hanging like that!” John yelled.

Ben picked up the two pairs of shorts and his worn shirt from the floor and followed John to the bathroom to throw them in the laundry. “I promise it’ll be worth it hun, please just trust me ok?” Ben threw the clothes into the hamper and the lid slammed shut as he waited for John to finish.

Still erect, John flushed the toilet and walked back toward Ben with his exposed dick poking out from under his t-shirt. “Fine,” John said in a now calm voice. “No kisses till you tell me what’s going on though.”

“It’s a bit of a surprise.” Ben grinned. “I can deal with no kissies till I’m ready to tell you.”

Ben led John back into the bedroom, took out his Boy Scout Switchback Microfiber pants from the closet, and sat on his bed to put them on while John figured out what to wear for the day. John put on the grey-striped boxer briefs that Ben seemed to have made his own, a green UA Heatgear t-shirt, and gray UA sweatpants. Looking in his dresser, Ben pulled out a pair of gray and blue REI COOLMAX socks and handed John a matching green and gray pair to wear. Both of them slipped the socks on and went downstairs to eat the breakfast that was waiting for them on the table.

Almost ready to go, Ben started packing a small backpack with some snacks, water, a first aid kit, a light jacket, and a small packable thin picnic blanket.

John looked at the meager food for the day as he sipped his coffee. “Is that all that’s for lunch, some trail mix?

Ben zipped up the pack. “Well, we can stop by the Subway around the corner and bring that with us. Maybe I’ll get you my dad’s daypack and you can carry lunch and your water. You should grab one of my light jackets too.”

“I’ll admit wearing your stuff too is kinky,” John laughed. “I’m wearing your socks right now and today I’ll be in Evan’s sweaty hiking boots!”

“Now you’re making me hard!” Ben adjusted his cock in the boxer briefs, but they didn’t have time to waste now. He went to the garage and returned with his dad’s day pack, and directed John to the downstairs closet to pick out a lightweight jacket to stuff into the bag.

Ready for the day the couple drove off in the Subaru. They stopped at Subway to order their favorite six-inch subs and made the 30-minute drive across the Snohomish River to the park.

Pulling into the gravel parking lot there were only 3 other cars this morning. The weather was nice but it being a Wednesday they weren’t expecting to run into too many other people on the trails. After getting out and putting on their packs Ben completed his outfit with a light brown Tilley hat while John donned a white Callaway ball cap.

Only a few minutes from the front gate John couldn’t hold back anymore. “So Benji, just tell me, what did you have planned today?”

Ben smirked. “Well, I’ve always had this fantasy about giving head outside in the woods, ever since I was a Tenderfoot. I tried to convince Evan to let me do it on a couple camps but he was even more scared of getting caught than me. I guess being out in the open rather than inside a tent was a bridge too far for him. This first part of our hike isn’t that secluded, but on the way back the forest is a lot thicker and we can head into the woods where no one will see us.”

John’s boner was too obvious now in the grey sweatpants and the loose UA boxers didn’t do anything to hide it. “That’s wild!” John commented. “But why stop at just a blow job?”

“You’re really gonna make me bottom after hiking 5 miles?” Ben laughed. “We’ll see when we get there I guess. Now can I get a kiss?”

Both of them stopped and John pushed back the brim of Ben’s hat and held him close for a kiss, John’s tongue quickly slipped inside Ben’s mouth but Ben glanced behind from where they came from to make sure no one was coming up along the trail. Seeing the coast was clear momentarily, Ben grabbed at John’s hard-on through his sweatpants.

“Mhmmmm fuck Ben, I could do it right here but we’re gonna get caught.” John wiped some saliva from his mouth and Ben let go just in time for a pair of mountain bikers to come up around the corner to pass them.

Ben was as hard as a rock too, but luckily his loose scout pants hid it well, while John had to hide behind Ben as Ben gave the pair of bikers a “Hullo!” as they passed.

“Phew!” Ben took a sip out of his water bottle while John pulled up his sweatpants. “That was close, see what did I say about this part of the park being a bit busier? Just concentrate on the scenery for now and I don’t mean my butt.” Ben stepped forward to lead the way.

“Did you and Evan come up here too?” John asked trying to change the subject and give his cock a chance to go down.

“Yeah, my dad took me and Nick or sometimes Evan and Liam up here almost once a week. I am using the trails app though because it’s been a while. Lots of good memories here, now we're making new ones with you.” Ben took John’s hand as the trail wound its way down to the river.

When they reached the muddy bank of the Snohomish River, John picked up a rock and tried to skip it across with not much luck. “So is this where you and Evan did rowing before UDub?” John asked.

“Actually yes, but at the mouth of this river into the sound.” We wouldn’t row this far upstream, from here to the mouth is a lot further distance than when you were watching Evan row last week out in the ship canal.” Ben took another sip of his water bottle as John sat on a log to take a break.

“Benji?” John asked again. “Other than me, Evan, and Josh have you fooled around with anyone else?”

Ben sat down on the log beside John. “Uhm in high school I went out with this guy for a couple of weeks named Jason, he was a senior and I was a junior. He was out and I wasn’t back then, we both screamed bottom energy so it didn’t work out. We never really got beyond making out in his car and looking at and touching each other's dicks.”

“Oh wow, look at you bagging the seniors! Not one girl at all though?” John grinned.

“Unnhh,” Ben’s face lit up with embarrassment. “Last summer when I did staff at Camp Parsons this Archery Instructor was hitting on me. I didn’t send her signals back that I liked her but didn’t exactly come out to her either. She finally caught me out behind the showers one night after lights out and cornered me against a wall, I was pretty surprised and freaked out but what am I gonna do? Hit a girl? She was like 19 I think so older than me too. I finally said I had a girlfriend and that was that, she left me alone for the rest of the summer. Now how about you?

“Aside from Cam and Allison? John chuckled. “Well when I was 14 and caddying that summer there was another boy named Ollie, back then I was a skinny twig and he was too, and some days when there was nothing to do we’d hide in the maintenance shed to fool around with each other. One time after I unzipped my pants he immediately bent over to start sucking me off. Damn, those were nice blow jobs, not as good as you, but for 14-year-olds it was pretty intense. So..” John counted off four fingers on his hand. “Guess we’re even!”

“Five,” Ben corrected him. “Micah.”

“Oh, you’re right!” John exclaimed as he got back up. “Did you ever ask him how he survived his parents getting back home?”

Ben got up and started to walk back onto the trail. “No, I forgot too, and now I feel bad about it. He’s probably back at school anyhow and it’s about lunchtime there. Let’s take a picture to send him.”

John put his arm around Ben and they took a selfie to send to Micah back in Idaho with the river in the background. Hey Micah it’s Ben, John is still with me here in Seattle for a week. I hope everything is ok with your parents was the message Ben sent with the picture and he put his phone in his pocket as they made their way up the river embankment and back to the trail.

It wasn’t a minute before Ben heard the “ding” sound from his phone. He looked at his Apple Watch: Micah 👨‍❤️‍💋‍👨 I’m still in one piece and back at BYU. Ben got rid of the activity notifications on his watch as Micah continued: Let’s just say I’m not allowed to go to any other concert for the summer. It was worth it though. Thanks for thinking about me!

“He’s alive but grounded I guess,” Ben told John as Ben took out his phone again to double-check they were on the right trail up to the viewpoint.

“Speaking of Micah, I never asked, how did you get your thing for Mormon boys?” John looked over at Ben.

“Oh, uh…” Ben took the lead as they got to a fork in the trail. “When I was 13 and riding my bike around the neighborhood with Evan we’d sometimes come across these missionaries on their bikes too. One of them I thought was pretty hot, looked like he played football in high school, was pretty muscular, and damn he was gorgeous in that white dress shirt he always had to wear. Short blonde hair with brown eyes, he would always smile at me when we encountered them.”

“One day in the summer I was alone and came across them in the park having lunch. He waved at me to sit down with them, I had seen them around enough that I felt comfortable doing that, and he introduced himself as Elder Affleck, but his name was Eli and he was from Wyoming. I didn’t feel like he was trying to convert me or anything, we just talked about Jesus and stuff. He was super nice, articulate, and smart, nothing like the stereotypical football jock I saw in movies or on TV. I couldn’t help but stare at his body through that thin white shirt that was starting to get sweaty.” Ben wiped the brow of his forehead as he was also starting to work up a sweat from the hike.

“After 10 or so minutes his handler or whatever said they had to go, they got on their bikes and rode off. That night I went on MaxPreps or something and found him. I jacked off to him in his full football uniform plenty of times that summer, so seeing him again on his bike in his missionary outfit wasn’t the same.” Ben shrugged.

“Did you also look me up on MaxPreps?” John laughed.

Ben chuckled. “I might have, you have a couple of videos on there too, I couldn’t help but notice your Elite socks and stuff.

“Ohh my boyfriend is a bit of a stalker huh?” John snickered and slapped Ben hard across the back. “What about Josh and Micah? They weren’t exactly the star high school quarterback.”

“You got me there,” Ben shrugged. “To be honest I was never really that attracted to Josh, it was always you. I was just tired of getting nowhere and was frustrated I didn’t get a chance with you that night. He saw right through my infatuation for you and I came out to him. Then he gave me this look and I didn’t push him off me when he grabbed my dick.”

“Aww, Ben you didn’t have to explain what happened with Josh to me again.” John took his hand as they dodged under a fallen tree. ”It's not like we were together when that happened, and well I guess Micah was partially my doing too. For nice innocent Mormon boys, they sure turned out to have slept around!”

“Yeah, that mystique certainly is gone for me now.” Ben laughed.

When the pair reached the main trail in a wide clearing they found a bench where they could have their lunch break. John pulled out their sub sandwiches and handed Ben his sweet onion Teriyaki chicken.

After taking his first bite Ben remarked. “Mhmmm, this brings us back to our first date huh? Subway onion breath, you in your sweatpants and sweaty hiking boots.”

John took a sip of water and questioned Ben’s recollection. “Was that really a date though? My pants were off and we were together in bed in the first 10 minutes we were alone, then you were in nothing but your underwear 2 minutes after that!”

Ben almost choked laughing on his next bite and he looked around to make sure no one was near them on the busier trail. “Oh my God, we were so horny that night, I can’t believe we got up that after we had that long of a day!”

John finished his sub and took out some trail mix out of Ben’s open bag. “Hey, if that day we met wasn’t that long I wouldn’t have gotten to know you, and who knows where we might be. John moved his leg closer to Ben as Ben finished the last of his sandwich.

As the wind started to pick up it blew away John’s subway wrapper off the bench and Ben went chasing after it. “Leave no trace,” he muttered as he put their garbage back in his bag and took a handful of trail mix for the road. John got back up and they started the march up to the viewpoint.

“So this is what we call the payoff.” Ben stood aside as John rounded the end of the viewpoint trail to see what Ben was talking about. Between a dip in the trees, they could see east to the Cascade range.

John took Ben’s hand and gave him another kiss. “This is quite the payoff, thanks for taking me up here, it’s nothing like home or even Colorado. I hope on day I can wake up to this view every day next to you. But there’s one payoff I had in mind too.” John’s hand slipped out of Ben’s hand and onto Ben’s butt in his microfiber scout pants.

“Not here,” Ben warned, he took out his phone and showed John their way back. “See, if we head off the main trail here, there’s not much out this way and no one is going to run into us.”

“If you say so.” John tried to hold back his excitement and they took in another minute of the view before heading back down to the clearing and the way back.

The point where Ben wanted to head off didn’t look like much of a trail and was barely marked with not much more than a sign on a short post saying no bikes. John followed Ben into the brush and Ben went deeper into the woods. Ben looked at his phone again to confirm they were at the right place, took off his pack, and started unpacking the thin picnic blanket he had brought.

“Before we start I gotta take a whizz, it was that coffee this morning.” John put down his bag and started to work his way through the brush.

“Ok just don’t pee on the blanket or me, and try to wash up after,” Ben told John as he took off his boots.

“Good idea.” John came back for his water bottle and disappeared behind a tree to take a piss. He had to admit the idea of having his cock out with just the serene beauty and sounds of nature around him with no walls was invigorating. Letting loose a steady stream of urine from his still-hard cock onto some branches he took care not to get anything on Evan’s boots. When he was finished, he took the water bottle he was holding under his arm and splashed some water on his hands and over the tip of his penis to clean it off for Ben. John didn’t bother to slip his dick back inside his sweatpants before turning back and walking toward Ben on the blanket.

Ben reached for John’s cock as he got close but Ben gave him a disgusted look when he felt it was wet.

“Don’t worry, it’s just water,” John grinned. “Are you ready?”

Staying silent, Ben got on his knees and slipped John’s clean wet cock between his lips. John pulled him in, flicked off Ben’s hat onto the ground, and wrapped his hands around his head.

“Uhhh..Benji, this is sweet, I can see why you fantasized about this for so long, you’re in your element more than ever.” John moaned as Ben swished around his tongue and looked up at John with half-lidded eyes realizing one of his ultimate fantasies was finally being fulfilled. He had never seen his boyfriend work so feverishly at his cock and he could feel Ben edging him close to the point of no return.

John felt like Ben was again going to make him cum too soon and he pushed Ben back on the forehead a tiny bit in a signal to take it easy before it was too late. Ben closed his eyes, slowed down, and once again took in all that he could of John into his mouth. After a couple more minutes of Ben in his moment slurping up John’s dick, John messed up Ben’s hair and asked if he was ready for more.

Ben nodded, then let out John’s cock, and got up to take off his scout pants followed by his boxer briefs. The thin blanket didn’t do much but keep them from getting dirt all over their clothes and bodies and Ben could feel the branches and twigs beneath them with his knees as he bent over to ready himself for John.

Gripping at a still erect cock, John laid back on the blanket to take off his boots and pants as well. Ben looked behind him just as John was crawling back toward him to stick out his tongue to eat Ben’s sweaty ass. Ben moaned loudly as John ran his tongue along his wet crack. Putting one arm in front of him to cushion his head from the hard ground, Ben grasped at his uncut cock to jerk himself off while John pleasured his behind. John ever so slightly stuck his tongue into Ben’s anus and Ben relaxed himself just as he would when taking John's cock up inside him. John's slippery wet tongue wasn’t as stiff inside him as John’s cock, but John rarely did this for him so being outside too must have set off a spark in John as well.

Sensing Ben was ready and willing to do what he promised even after their long hike, John slowly retreated his tongue and got on his knees. He guided his erect dick into Ben’s wet hole starting with the tip. Ben groaned and tried to stretch his hole even more as John grasped at Ben’s sides through his REI shirt to slip himself even deeper inside.

Ben was breathing with intensity now as he masturbated furiously with his left hand and John slammed into him from behind. He relaxed his hole again and John moaned aloud. “I love you Benjiiii, this was totally worth it, I’m sorry for getting mad at youuuu.”

Starting to grit his teeth Ben could feel all of John inside him now. Admittedly his whole body was starting to feel sore from the hike even before he was put in this position and now his ass felt like it was on fire. John’s breathing too was starting to sound labored as they both seemed to have been wound up like never before out in nature, just a couple hundred feet from the main Pipeline Trail of the park. Aside from getting aroused by wearing each other’s clothes and the thrill of potentially getting caught, the adrenaline rush of having sex in the woods where hopefully only Mother Nature was watching them seemed to be getting them both to climax very soon.

Ben let out a loud groan, feeling the overwhelming sensation of John's dick thrusting in and out of him, his left hand still working furiously on his engorged uncut cock. The forest seemed alive around them, the trees and bushes rustling with the passion of their lovemaking. As they reached the brink of climax, they could hear the distant sound of hikers on the Pipeline Trail, their laughter and chatter echoing through the dense woods.

Ben squeezed his eyes shut, trying to concentrate on the raw intensity of their pleasure. John's thrusts grew more erratic, his breaths shaky and ragged as he neared the edge. Ben knew that once John reached his climax, he would fill him up with a torrent of cum,  saved up from all of yesterday, and John edging himself in and outside of his favorite UA nylon shorts this morning.

Feeling John's dick twitch inside him, the sensation sent a jolt of pleasure through Ben’s body and John pulled at Ben’s shirt hard. John felt lightheaded as an intense orgasm overcame his body and he bent forward as he fired his load into Ben's boyhole. The twitching and throbbing inside Ben was enough to send him over the edge as well and he spasmed and ejaculated all over the blanket beneath them. John pulled out and left Ben with a warm wet feeling up his ass as they collapsed onto the blanket together amongst their discarded clothes.  

John looked down at Ben’s bum beside him as his cum leaked out between his cheeks and threatened to make the blanket an even more messy cleanup.

“That was intense Benji, but we have a big mess and no towel!” John said still catching his breath, turning to face Ben. "I've never felt anything quite amazing before."

Ben only managed a faint, blissful smile in response until he too caught his breath.“I have a roll of camping tp and wet wipes in my pack.” Ben tried blindly reaching around him, but his pack was behind John.

“I got it,” John rolled over and opened Ben’s pack. “You are the true Boy Scout, always prepared!”
