Hello all... :)

This thread is almost at 100 pages of pure drabble goodness ... wonderful, isn't it?  Let's keep it going.
Anyway, I come bearing rather suggestive prompts..  ;)

* wet and sticky
* a run-out horse
* rolling his own


Have fun!

~M

I got a silly, naughty lil drabble.. It's friday, pls humour me.. :P


Roll yours, I'll roll mine...


It was a calm summer evening when Jack dismounted his mare and walked listlessly towards the campfire.  Ennis was sitting on the ground in front of the tent, busy with something.  Jack lit up when he saw Ennis sitting there.  His eyes lingered on Ennis’ bare chest and followed the little trail of fine hairs that eventually disappeared into the front of his unzipped jeans.  Jack smiled and approached Ennis.

“Whut’re ya doin’?” Jack asked, suddenly stopping.

“Whut does it look like, Jack?”

“You’re rolling your own?” he asked in surprise.  “I thought…” he paused and watched Ennis, “I thought ya liked the way I did it..”

“I do Jack, but it always ends up short.  I like ‘em longer..”

“Ya never said anything before..” Jack replied, looking hurt.

“I ain’t big on complainin’ Jack. Ya know that.  Bitchin’ an’ whinin’ are your department,” he said, smiling crookedly.  Jack continued to watch him quietly.

“Come on, Jack…ya know how pissy ya git when I tell ya whut to do!  I like the way I do it better..” he looked up at Jack pleadingly.

“Fuck, whatever.  From now on, I’ll roll my own joints, you roll yours!” he shook his head and walked into the tent.

“See!  I knew you’d git pissy about it!”  Ennis laughed.  “Jack fuckin’ Twist,” he mumbled, before licking the paper edge on his last smoke.

        Jack was jumping off the mare, with his heart racing.. He quivvered like a run-out horse His entire
body lurching toward Ennis and the longing coursing his veins.  He was tired of rolling his own on the long nights in the tent.  It smelled something awful, and the night breeze could no longer  assuage the odor, that smell like "cat piss or worse."  Jack smiled at Ennis and the corners of his mouth turned up in the way that he had of just letting it grow slowly and then turn into a full out blazing star. defiant and heart warming laugh.  Ennis was one least capable of resisting that beauty of his.  Jack knew the effect he had on Ennis went straight to his groin.  He smirked shyly as he watched Ennis squirm in his tight jeans.  Jack loved watching him as he got riled..As hard as he tried Ennis could not resist the magnetic surge he felt, everytime Jack looked that way at him...But they both knew he would give in. As he always did.
         "You wanta eat, or ya wanta fuck."  'Or do you wanta fuck, and eat.  At the same time?"  Jack playfully asked.  Ennis made his customary "hunh" and grabbed Jack to him and said, "you have a bad mouth
Jack Fu..ing Twist."  "You like my bad mouth friend?"  "Yeah I do, I do"
          Later they lay in the quiet tent, and Jack asked again, "You still like my bad mouth?"   "Yeah more'n
ever now.  I like the things you say with it.  And I like even more what you can do with it boy."

Coconuts


"What the hell is this?"

"What?"

"This wet sticky stuff all over the bedroll, dumbass."

"Now who's the dumbass – what the hell you think it is!" 

"Naw – it's not . .. . .this smells like . .  . I don't know . . . some kind of fruit or sumpin."

"Oh ….....  no, that's not fruit – coconut, it smells like coconut."

"Coconut ain't a fruit?"

"Grows on those big palm trees in Hawaii or sumpin."

"Yeah grows on trees –like FRUIT"!

"Oh.  Yeah.  Never really thought about it before – but it smells good, don't it?" 

"I dunno – you ever gonna tell me what the hell it is or you gonna go on all night about coconuts and fruit and shit?" 

"It's sunscreen lotion."

"Sunscreen? .. . . . for what?"

"For your pale white ass, dumbass.  Don't you remember what happened last time?  Shit, I couldn't sit still for a week!"

"Oh. Yeah."

"Okay, then, drop 'em, cowboy – I'll do you and you do me.  Deal?"

"Sun's been down for three hours, dumbass."

"Don't matter – now I've got a hankering for coconut."
