Derek was questioning why his boyfriend had texted him to meet him in the woods. He considered the idea of actually getting an answer but ultimately just agreed to come considering its their four month anniversary. He wanted to do something special rather have a picnic in the forest, but wasn't against the idea either. Derek called this a win anyways considered he got to dressed formal.

Derek is a handsome young man with brown hair, having dyed it from his natural blonde color, and amber eyes. His boyfriend is Hunter, a charming man with semi length brown hair and green eyes. Both had starting dating since an incident four months ago. Overtime, Derek and Hunter started grow on one another.

While Derek did respect the privacy of his boyfriend, he was quite curious what what Hunter had in store. If it was a picnic, Hunter better have packed something worth eating and the hiking in his attire would work. After freshen himself up and getting dressed, he gave his parents a quick goodbye and left to meet his boyfriend at the distinguished location.

After driving to the location, Derek exited his vehicle revealing his outfit for the date. The brunette went with a black dress shirt and vest with a tuxedo jacket to cover them up. He had on a red violet bow tie and a handkerchief in the jacket's pocket. Like most of his clothes, his slacks were black followed by a pair of black over the calf dress socks and dress shoes.

Derek avoided mud from the dirt path, not intend on trashing his shoes. He walked with a sense of elegance. Might be due to his formal appearance. Derek still wondered why his boyfriend suggested meeting in the woods. His mind was completely filled with different ideas. Hopefully none of they were true... or as dirty.

Luckily for him, his demeanor changed when he came across the sight.

It was a picnic table with Hunter sitting on it with a smile that pushed Derek's uncomfortable thoughts away. Hunter was currently dressed in white tuxedo shirt with a black bow tie at the collar while covered with the a signature black tuxedo jacket. He had black slacks, black over the calf dress socks, and a pair of shiny black dress shoes. And to Derek's knowledge, a gleeful smile that his significant other loved to see.

"Happy anniversary," were the first words out of his mouth.

Derek replied with the same, before following up with a kiss that Hunter responded with the same action, slowly melting into each other mouth, while Derek had a slight tent in his slacks since he had a formal obsession. His boyfriend seemed to have pick up on that obsession.

After parting from their kiss, Hunter revealed his little surprise: lunch in the forest. While Derek wouldn't be one to dine in woods, he was with his boyfriend. So throwing caution to the wind, he sat down with him.

Lunch was simple. Hunter had brought some sparkling cinder with a few sandwiches in a picnic basket. It wasn't as formal but Derek didn't mind. Hunter even began to play some classical ballroom music aloud, which began to slowly entice Derek.

Knowing his boyfriend was a sucker for ballroom music, Hunter began to slowly start with a sophisticated formal dance, before extending a hand.

"Care to dance?"

Derek, obliviously flustered, responses, "Of course."

Taking Hunter's hand, Derek is pulled out of his seat and the two begin a slow dance with Hunter leading. They ballroom danced with each other, in absolute love with each other. Derek felt so happy, nothing could ruin this moment...

But he spoke too soon.

Hunter had accidentally led them a mud pit, evident in the squishing sound Derek began to hear. He looked down and saw he was now stepping his black dress shoes in the muddy ground, much to his horror.

Derek was not one to get messy. Hunter though...

Hunter just gained a smile at his boyfriend's horror expression. He really did sweat the small stuff. Hunter continued to led, ignoring his boyfriend's protesting while they danced in the mud. The mud continued to muck their dress shoes up, much to Derek's chagrin. But the formal loving man did his best to endure it.

And the anniversary was led to a more muddy experience, when Derek slipped onto his backside.

Hunter stifled his laughter while trying to get boyfriend up, only to get pulled it up in, getting his tuxedo dirty. Not that he minded, the bulge present in his slacks. Derek did his best to stand, which made his hands and slacks more muddy. He managed to rise but Hunter pulled him into himself, getting the frontside of his black tuxedo. The mud dampen his attire, cloaking it brown much to the wearer's annoyance. The red violet bow tie wearing man turned his head to his boyfriend, laughing at his misfortune. Derek just huffed and turned away...

Before tackling Hunter to give him his own mud "spa," while absentmindedly smile at his muddy boyfriend. Of course, this lead to him getting blindsided and a clump of mud was thrown into his face. Derek, now being carefree with his muddy attire, removed the mud and grabbed his own piece of mud to throw, landing onto Hunter's black bow tie and neck. They continued to play in the mud in a loving manner, with mud wrestling, stomping to splatter the mud, flinging mud, etcetera. After about forty five minutes, Derek was lying back first considering Hunter had the stronger upper body strength allowing him to pin his boyfriend down. But Hunter bore a seductive smile on his lips and his bulge being quite noticeable while Derek just gave him a seductive look, seeing his muddy appearance looked like eye candy to him.

Derek wasn't one for being messy, but the muddy experience he just got made him sorta carve more. The mud had coated his face and infiltrated his brown wavy hair. The black tuxedo shirt, jacket, and vest were trashed completely, mud having been smeared along it. The red violet bow tie was crooked and muddy itself similar to his neck. His black slacks -hiding a bulge himself- were brown stained, his black dress socks became dark brown, and his black dress shoes were murky as they were when they started to dance in the mud.

In Derek's eyes, Hunter's muddy appearance made him want more. His semi length brown hair was mopey from the mud and his handsome face consisted of brown splotches. His tuxedo was in the same manner as his lover's, the white tuxedo shirt now stained given the white fabric. The black tuxedo jacket reeked with the substance and his black bow tie was covered in the goo. Hunter's slacks were more brown than black now, seeing he had his fair share on getting his backside, and had a small budge present as well. His black dress socks were muddy themselves, like his black dress shoes but those were more muddy than the socks.

Hunter then got his boyfriend and stood up before offering his hand to help up Derek. Seeing he was exhausted, Derek grabbed as hoisted himself up. The two kept their hands intertwined before Hunter removed some of the mud on his and Derek's face. Derek blushed at this, before giving a long kiss with Hunter not resisting. They parted and went back to the picnic table where the music was STILL playing the classic ballroom music. Derek loved his boyfriend whether he was clean or muddy. And he would definitely want to do this more often.

But perhaps a hands up would be nice if Hunter ever did this again.
