[center][b][u]Adam's Big Surprise[/u][/b][/center]

Adam didn't know why his blind date had been arranged for such a remote location. If he hadn't trusted his friend Sarah so implicitly, it might have seemed somewhat creepy and suspicious, and quite frankly he couldn't imagine how much more creepy it must have seemed for his date to be asked to go out and meet this guy she'd never met in the middle of a National Park trail. Nevertheless, he was here, and he was determined to do his very best to show his date that however strange the setup and however little they knew about each other, he had nothing but the best intentions for their first date. He was dressed in a smart shirt and his smartest pair of jeans, khakis really not seeming suitable for a place such as this, his phone was on silent with every intention of Adam turning it off entirely when his blind date got here, and seated beside him on the bench where he had been asked to wait, some ten minutes away from the spot where his and presumably Jessica's car would soon be parked too, was a basket full of picnic items for them to share together if they wanted something to eat together after the... well, Adam assumed they'd probably go on a walk or something, given the lack of other options around here.

He waited, and didn't check his phone even when it felt like ten minutes had passed, meaning that the time they were meant to have met was upon them. He glanced around at the beautiful forest, turning his head occasionally to listen to a chirping bird or to see a critter of some sort scamper out of the bushes, see him and turn tail. He stretched his legs out, rolling his shoulders in their sockets and limbering up as though in expectation of the hike that was potentially looming on the horizon, and then...

The picnic basket beside Adam rattled slightly, as though some of the cutlery held within had been jostled a little by some motion. It rattled again, and Adam frowned as he looked around, seeing a puddle close by rippling slightly as though some source of vibration had set it into motion. This part of the country didn't have earthquakes, at least not in the ten years or so he'd spent living here, and the motion was far too infrequent to be some sort of heavy goods vehicle or even something more worrying like a mudslide further up the slope on which this whole section of forested land was set. Try as he might the human male couldn't think of any cause for the rattling, rumbling vibration until it grew close enough for him to turn his head back towards the path down which he had walked, and at that point as he [i]saw[/i] its source, all he could do was stare, and stare, and stare in sheer awe.

"Hi, are you Adam?"

The forty foot tall grey squirrel padding her way down the path towards him waved and smiled, cocking her head to one side as she did so. The human nodded back as he continued to helplessly stare at her while she regarded him with a warm smile, only stopping her forward progress when she was close enough to drop gently down to her knees, and settle into a comfortable seated position on the side of the trail by his bench.

"You... u-uh, you must be Jessica. Sarah's told me... well, actually she kinda didn't tell me anything about you, other than that I'd think you were great."

The squirrel smiled and nodded.

"Yup, that sounds like Sarah. Hey, you should meet Jess. She's forty foot tall and great, have fun!"

She saw the human blanch at the audible mention of her size, and her eyes widened.

"She [i]did[/i] tell you I was a macro, right?"

Adam made a small gurgling sound somewhere between a frog's croak and a wheeze of utter despair, and the squirrel threw her arms up in the air in frustration.

"Oh my [b]god[/b] I told her not to do that again. The last really [i]nice guy[/i] she set me up with took one look at me and said he wasn't comfortable not being the tallest person in their relationship. A real winner, that one. Ugh. I'm sorry. I never would have agreed to this if I knew she hadn't told you."

Blinking, Adam frowned slightly.

"O-oh. So, you... you w-wanna call this off?"

The squirrel looked down at him, and her eyes widened slightly.

"Oh. No. No no, I didn't mean, I just meant that I didn't want to put [i]you[/i] in an uncomfortable situation. I didn't mean to hide who I was or anything. Like, if you're cool with me being, well, me, I'm totally happy to see if there's anything here. What about you?"

Rubbing a hand across the back of his neck, Adam smiled bashfully as he looked up, and up, and up at the huge woman sitting before him.

"I... I'm cool. It was just a surprise, is all. I've, uh... I've never met a macro before. Oh, Jesus, was that a really offensive thing to say, or just really dumb? Sorry either way."

To Adam's relief, Jessica giggled and shook her head.

"No, it's fine. Really. But, I'm surprised. There are more and more of us going around in cities these days. You haven't ever seen one of us in person?"

Nodding the human continued to smile and blush up at the huge squirrel.

"Well, seen other macros, yeah. But I've never like, interacted with one. Gah, and again I make it sound like you're not just a normal person, like you're something [i]different[/i] or..."

His voice trailed off and he buried his head in his hands. Jessica however just giggled.

"There are a lot of different kinds of awkward in the world. Some are creepy, others are just frustration, some are cute."

Adam winced as he looked up. Jessica's smile reassured him. She winked.

"Don't worry. You're just being cute. But... yeah, let's get it out in the open. I'm Jess. I'm forty one point six feet tall. I prefer the term macro, though I'm not gonna complain if you just say I'm giant or [i]really effing tall[/i]. I've been this way all my life, born to macro parents rather than developing this way, and... yeah, other than that and having to do certain things differently, or live in different places because of my size? I'm pretty much a normal person. So, from now on, you can say you [i]have[/i] met a macro, and we can leave the cute awkwardness behind. Maybe just... get to know each other as people, right?"

The squirrel extended a single finger from her right hand, and Adam nodded as he reached out his entire own right hand to grasp and shake that single digit.

"Right. I... I'm Adam, and really? Seriously? I'm very happy to meet you, Jessica."

They shook hand to finger, and Jessica gently corrected him with a warm smile.

"Jess, please. And, I'm happy to meet you too, Adam."

He chuckled.

"Jess. Right. So... would you like to take a walk? Maybe chat a bit and get to know each other. Or, would you prefer to sit? I..."

The human glanced over at his basket, his basket of average sized person food suddenly looking pitifully insufficient despite him having believed that he'd packed far too much for one meal.

"...uh, I was gonna say I brought lunch."

Jessica grinned.

"Aww, that's sweet. Thank you for the thought. To answer your question though I'd love it if we could take a walk. Would... uh, and please tell me if this makes you uncomfortable, would you like to sit on my shoulder?"

Only after Jessica said that did Adam realise how difficult it would have been for him and Jessica to walk together side by side, or even one after the other. He'd have to jog, perhaps even run just to keep up with her, or the macro squirrel would have been forced to take one step for every eight or ten of his. He smiled nervously up at her.

"If that's really okay? Or we can just sit and chat. I just... I'd just like to learn a little more about you, y'know? That's the important thing."

Jessica beamed back at him, and nodded warmly.

"That [i]is[/i] what's important, you're right. But, I would like to take a walk. So yeah, it's really okay."

Gently she lowered a hand down to the human male once more, placing it at the same level as the bench, palm up though with her fingers slightly curved and cupped. A few moments and some careful adjusting later, and with his picnic basket on his lap Adam was being lifted off the ground. Higher, higher as Jessica pulled herself to her feet, until at last he was settling onto the squirrel's shoulder just by her neck.

"Feel free to grab on to some fur. Don't worry, it doesn't hurt."

Jessica addressed him, taking a single step as though demonstrating to Adam what it felt like to be sitting upon her as she moved. He nodded, and soon they were on the move. Sweeping off the trail and through the forest at a rate that seemed incredible to the human, and as they did so beginning to chat.

To begin with the topics were fairly mundane, how Adam had found the drive up here and how the walk had been for Jessica. What they thought of the weather so far as summer transitioned to autumn, and what they were each hoping for when winter finally came. Only after that did their conversation drift into more meaningful topics, the kind of discussions that suggested each of them was at least interested in seeing where this date might lead. They began to converse about their lives, their likes, and what they thought their mutual friend Sarah had seen in each of them which would make them so suited for a blind date. They smiled, and joked, and laughed together.

At one point, Jessica's clothes came up. There were of course fashion houses which catered to macros, but the beautiful light green sundress the squirrel was wearing had apparently been hand-stitched by Jessica herself. As he complimented its beauty, Adam made the squirrel blush. It was then he noticed, [i]really[/i] noticed for the first time, just how beautiful she was, too.

Around half an hour later, they found themselves standing on the very peak of the mountain upon which this particular parkland trail wound its way. They peered out over the valley below, and Adam marvelled as Jessica pointed out to him her house, a vast wooden structure located at the far end of the valley, standing guard over a dam and reservoir for which she served as security and a sizeable proportion of its superstructure's maintenance crew.

"You're incredible..."

He murmured, eyes widening as he realised just what he'd said aloud to the squirrel. She giggled, and with one delicate finger stroked the side of his face.

They spent the whole day together, much of it right there on the mountaintop. Sitting, chatting, laughing, blushing. There really was a lot of blushing as they came to realise just how well they got on, and just how much they liked each other. At no point did either one of them blush any harder though than the very end of their first date, when Adam realised that they were now sitting and watching the sun go down together.

"O-oh... uh, shit. I have to drive back to the city. I should probably... i-if you're okay to help me get back to the trail, that is."

He saw the sorrow in Jessica's eyes as she too realised how late it was. He sighed, wishing he didn't have to go but not daring to suggest that he stay.

"Unless..."

Jessica murmured, her voice constricted as though she barely dared to make the suggestion herself.

"Unless?"

Adam murmured back.

"Unless... y-you... and please don't feel like I'm making any kind of assumption here. Unless you'd like to... y'know. Stay?"

She gestured across the valley, towards her house. Her eyes turned towards the man sitting on her shoulder, a spot where he had remained very comfortably for most of their day together. She blushed beneath her lush grey fur. Adam blushed back as he felt her skin warm beneath him.

"I... I think..."

Adam took a deep breath.

"I think I'd like that."

He ran a hand through her fur, against her warm skin. A finger brushed against his cheek, and paused as he touched it, held it there with one of his own hands. The two of them looked at each other, and kept on looking for quite some time as they blushed, and smiled, and held one another there on the mountaintop.

Finally Adam turned his head a little, and kissed the tip of Jessica's outstretched finger. She sighed a deep, echoing sigh of contentment, and a moment later Adam cried out in laughter and delight as the squirrel's head turned towards him more completely, and her soft, huge muzzle kissed the entirety of his body as gently, as intimately as it could in return. His face was burning scarlet as hers withdrew. They both were. But they were both beaming like nothing else, too, and their shared smiles only grew wider as Jessica began to descend from the mountaintop once more, and Adam was gladly carried along for the ride.

"Y-yeah, Jess. I... I think I'd really, really like that quite a lot."
