Okay, so I may as well tell you the worst up front. I’m pretty sure I’m gay. I never admitted it to myself in high school, because all the guys who fooled around with other guys never treated it as anything but fun and games, even if it got harder to explain when guys were dating girls. And actually, nowadays, I consider that the best, not the worst.

Even so, on a date night, when there was no school the next day, a few designated cocksuckers like me would leave our bedroom windows open a crack, and all night we’d be finishing off what the guys’ dates wouldn’t.

It was a service, a valuable service. No one rocked the boat. Not even Rev. Henderson’s son, Lucky, who could deliver his dad’s sermons with a real fire in his voice. Some fire. Every time he gave a sermon, he was horny as hell afterward, and none of the girls wanted to date the pastor’s son, so his cock was in my mouth half an hour after his sermonizing. I sucked him from the time that he had a thin little pencil with a dusting of hair, to the days when he began to grow and seemed to be sprouting an inch a week (in height), to last Wednesday, when he stopped by my window at 1 AM and made cat noises. It made me giggle. He was built like a linebacker, but if he wanted my mouth around his hardon, he had to do cat imitations. He was lucky.

I made Jon Filbert, the tennis champ for our school, ranked 15th nationally, imitate Wimbledon noises. If I heard a guy make a stab at the sound of a tennis ball on clay, I knew whose hardon would be spurting into my mouth within half an hour or so. An elephant trumpet meant I’d be fucking Big Sammy, otherwise known as Elephant Man, because his cock was so huge it was like an elephant’s trunk. He considered it a curse, because although everyone wanted to play with it, no one would or could take it, and he had to learn to bottom to have any sex at all.

If I heard a dog barking, it was Art, the younger of the Naper twins. He didn’t know it, as far as I knew, but if I heard the sound of an asthmatic dog barking, it was Aram, his older brother by 4 minutes. Identical cocks, both hung, both built. I always wanted to see them together, but they never did that in high school. Later, though, they... but that’s another story.

Now, I wasn’t the only cocksucker in my high school. There were at least 10 guys in every grade who would help a buddy out. And of those, most of them were straight, or wound up living as a straight man. Myself, I don’t believe there is such a thing as someone who’s completely gay or completely straight. I’ve slept with a couple of women: one, sophomore year in high school, was a beautiful girl, and she set out to seduce me the way I set out to seduce a hot athlete. She wanted me. She wanted my body. She probably wanted more, but she settled for my body.

When I went to lie down at a party, because the room was spinning, she quietly joined me, taking off her clothes. I didn’t know how to say no, though I wanted to at first, because I was never sure that I could fake my way through fucking a girl. The funny thing is, it came quite naturally to me, and her skill and experience were a huge turn-on. She was rumored to be sleeping with almost any elite athlete in our high school; though I’m sure she didn’t have as many as I had. She was also supposed to be blowing the hot young artist who subbed for our art class every few months. And the young, fit guys on the police rotation to our school. Supposedly that was how she got an easy parking spot. High school seems to thrive on rumors. I thought she was hot, classy, and I was very flattered that she wanted to be my first. When I came inside her, I felt as if I had just climbed Mt. Everest. At least, I was breathing that hard. It felt like a real accomplishment, an experience to be savored.

But not to be repeated, at least not often. I knew which way the wind blew... I might enjoy slipping my cock into a girl now and again, for variety, but my emotions were all tied up with the guys I was sleeping with.

Forget the blowjobs. They were high school popcorn. You can’t determine a guy’s sexuality by whether or not he blows other guys when he’s still in school. In our home town, several big plants had shut down over the last decade before I graduated high school, and there were a lot of unemployed folks. People did what they had to survive, and no one looked down his or her nose at a Claire, a mother who turned an occasional trick because her baby needed shoes and her husband was in Afghanistan. Or Patrick, the guy who’d mow your lawn, always dressed in his sexiest clothes to mow for women his age up to 10 years older, and who quietly let it be known that if a woman wanted a safe, no-attachment bit on the side, he’d accommodate.

When Jake Simmons stepped too close to an IED and came back with his left leg paralyzed, he asked the lawn mowing guy if he’d help him out, let Jake do the foreplay, let Jake hold Robbi, fondle her, and do everything but the in and out down there. It was Jake’s gift to his Robbi, who knew that it was important for Jake to feel he was satisfying her, and despite her innate shyness, she let the lawn guy stick his hardon into her vagina at least once a week. There were rumors, but no one paid them much attention. Nobody’s business, no how. When someone came up with an electrical device that permitted Jake to shoot sperm, and Robbi got pregnant, we all rooted for them.

In that context, a few shared blowjobs were a trifle. Guys have done that kind of thing since cave man times, and I’ll be there were Neanderthals who shared a good time while off hunting. As for Homo Erectus... let’s not go there.

See, most of the guys who helped other guys out in high school knew they were straight, and so it didn’t threaten them. Me, I was different. I had fantasized about TV actors or about hot cartoon characters even before I knew what sex was. I used to imagine them with no clothes on. I used to think about their asses. I had no idea a cock could be a source of pleasure until one night, when I was thinking like this, with my little brother asleep in the next bed, I found my hands in my pants... and I rubbed my middle against the mattress until suddenly I felt a strange itch. It was so overwhelming a feeling that I couldn’t stop rubbing, and then suddenly I felt a liquid spurting out of my hard cock. I was a real innocent kid. I had no idea what it was. I got up, cleaned up, and got back into bed to try it again. I remember that there were weeks when I walked funny because my cock was red and sore from having been jacked 11 times the night before and twice that morning before school.

With cock coming more and more into my imagination, I still didn’t know what you DID with them. I mean I knew what men did with women, but where could a man fooling around with another man put his... And then at a sleepover, I saw an article in Penthouse in which someone mentioned blowjobs. When that issue came out, the guys I used to hang out with all talked about what it meant, until my buddy Charles’s older brother, Tim, who was graduating high school and going off to an Ivy League school, overheard us and decided to set us straight. We sat in a circle with our flashlights pointed to the center, and he explained or confessed most of his own sexual experiences. All I knew was that I wanted to suck him. I never did. When I see him now, graying and bald, I still see the incredibly hot 19-year-old. I always will. I put him on my must-fuck list back then, when I hadn’t fucked anyone, and I have never seen a reason to take him off the list. He knows nothing about it. But the hot guy he was lives on in my longing.

The summer before my junior year, Coach Thomas threw a bash for his daughter Charlotte’s Sweet 16 +2. The mothers all supervised the girls, which left 18 guys frustrated, all but one of them 18 years old (the last holdout turned 18 three days later), with 18 hardons poking up out of their sleeping bags that night. It was hot, and when one guy heard a second say he was so horny he could fuck a hole in the diving board, we all decided to go skinny dipping. Eighteen guys in the prime of life, all hard. Heaven. We decided to play cards... 18 is a lot to hold cards, even using 2 decks. So then Nathan Kristen suggested that we all write down our deepest sexual fantasy, and we did. Nate was a bit of a trickster... he took a Flare pen and wrote one of the fantasies on a card. He then told us to turn in our hands, that he would teach us a new game. When he read the rules, we heard other guys’ fantasies for the first time. We didn’t know who it was that wanted to feel a girl’s vagina clamp on his cock while he slipped a European cucumber into his ass. We didn’t know who had admitted that he wanted to suck off his older football hero brother. We didn’t know which of us wanted to have sex at a glory hole. We didn’t know who had learned from the local lawn guy that he could pick up a few extra bucks by letting women or guys do whatever they wanted with his body. We used that deck of cards for two years, and we even used it when it was a co-ed crowd. First, we wrote in roles for the women, and then we discovered that two guys getting it on were a turn-on for our classmates. But that first night, we started the game at 1:30 AM, and we only stopped when we realized that someone in the neighborhood would probably be communicative.

After that, we had another fantasy game: living pornography. Dares. We’d draw cards to determine who was doing the entertaining that evening, and then we’d let the first person draw cards to determine the 2nd. Sometimes we saw sex similar to what the couple did in real life. Because that’s where this was headed... The chosen one and his partner(s) as designate by the cards, had to do whatever was assigned them in the drawing. We never had more than one member as the principal “guest of honor,” and his “date” would be whoever’s card he drew, next round. If the card said A bites B’s nipple, they had to do it. It didn’t matter what sex you were; this was a game we all agreed to play.

Of course, a few of us used the game as a chance to settle some scores. There was the time Dickie Pockets, whose father owned the local dry-cleaners, insulted two juniors, one an intellectual, the other pure rah-rah, our whole crowd disciplined him. Dickie mocked them for not putting up much of a fight before getting up on the diving board (our impromptu stage) and rimming each other. We didn’t touch him. Maybe I thought of peeing on him, or leaving him tied to the door of school and covered with cum, but we had a better discipline. We stopped inviting him. Nobody told him where the party was. More than once, he showed up at the wrong house with a half-case of beer, horny as fuck. The parents, who were clueless (I’ve since learned that they had more than an inkling of what was happening), might have gone out for a late dinner. In Nate’s case, when he realized that he had fucked up, that the two guys in question were simply acting out a role set for them in the dice, it was too late. He went a full three, horny months with his left hand. He only came back in when he agreed to be the passive party in a fuck-by-the-dice evening. I can still remember his wailing cries as Andre (we used to call him Andre the Giant) thrust his whole 11.5” into Dickie’s butt with only a bit of spit as lube.

By the 10th fuck with the same cock, Dickie’s disruption was atoned for but it was an amazing coincidence how often after that he wound up having to bottom for one or another of his team-mates. I’m sure. Coincidence! Sure. Oh my God, I’m going to...

Shit, I was going to start my story, and I only got this far in the intro when I shot. I don’t much like Dickie, but fucking him with the whole crowd watching was a peak experience. When I see him in commercials these days, touting his stock portfolio program, I still get hard thinking about what a great ass he had for a loser.

Ok, ok. I promise to be more careful about not shooting until I move the story forward. At least you got a glimpse of where I came from. (No, no pun.) And why I was off to college with enough empirical evidence to know that I was gay but straight-friendly. And enough self-confidence not to get caught up in someone else’s moral scheme. As you’ll see in the chapters coming up, I never call anyone a slut for liking to fuck or get fucked. I think history shows that everybody likes to fuck, and in my opinion anyone who doesn’t like to fuck doesn’t know what he’s missing. Or she’s missing. As long as nobody gets hurt and we play safe, it’s nobody’s business. That’s what I thought and what I still think. That’s what was running through my mind when I met my roommate from Freshmen year, Paul. I’ll tell you about his adventures and my adventures with him, next time.
 
Thanks, Benderboy! Great handle. I think Scottish lads start out miles ahead of everyone else in terms of sheer sexiness. Maybe I need to work that into a story.
 
2MOA1T1T, a virgin in Winnipeg. The guys I have met in Winnipeg haven't been virgins. At least, not after we met. I can't speak about before. Thanks for your encouragement. I'm trying to write so things in the story, most of which is true, occur at a natural pace.
 
Re: Tenting Tonight. Chapter 2

Chapter 2

I promised to tell you about Paul, my Freshmen year roommate. I got his name in the mail about two weeks before school started. He was from Medford, Oregon.

I first saw Paul at Freshmen orientation. I had arrived in Massachusetts the night before, driving up with my folks from my home near Philadelphia. We’d unpacked, and they said good-bye to me and set out on the drive home just after lunch. I was very worried about what my roommate would be like. I even thought of asking for a single room, but I knew that my folks couldn’t afford that, not with two kids in college. So I made do.

Only, when he turned up an hour after I began unpacking, Paul was not making do material. He was “do me now” material. Very tall, lightly muscled, and cute, Paul was an eyeful. I wondered if his height (he was about 6-10) was a clue to his cock size. But I couldn’t concentrate on my inner speculation about his privates when I was helping him bring his luggage in from his folks’ car. It did begin what has become a lifelong attraction to very tall men.

Paul seemed kind of shy, and for a guy that all, he didn’t seem to be a basketball jock. His handshake was firm, no dead fish at the end of those arms. He had dirty blond hair, cut fairly short, and his lanky form filled his clothes exceedingly well. Of course, I was quietly monitoring all conversation with him for any indication of his sexuality, but he was discreet and quiet, excellent qualities in a roommate.

Paul’s dad, who was about 45 or 50, was also tall, easy on the eyes, and wore a clerical collar, which put my antennae up. I wondered if Paul would be religious, or homophobic, or friendly at all.

After his folks left, as we chatted, I commented on their Oregon license plates. I asked Paul if they’d driven all the way east from Oregon, and he said that his folks wanted to spend some family time as they got used to his leaving the nest.

“You seem very close with your family. I’m close with mine too,” I told him.

“Yeah, my folks are cool.”

“So, your dad’s a minister?”

“Yeah, Unitarian. It’s the first time in a while he’s worn that collar. He usually doesn’t, but after we got some rude service in Montana, he stopped at a clerical store and picked up the collar. After that, people were more polite to us.” Paul grinned. “You pass through some really conservative towns on I-90. It’s a little weird, but he figures that if he is spending a lifetime helping people, it can’t hurt if people are at least polite to us. So if they mistake us for holy rollers and are nice to us by mistake, that’s their problem.”

“I guess,” I said. “What does your mom do?”

“She’s a social worker. She works at a stage agency that helps kids from rough backgrounds get settled. You know, runaways, abuse victims, kids with a history.”

“What kind of history?” I asked Paul, as he made his bed.

“You know, kids who were thrown out of their homes for growing up too soon for their parents, for being too sexual too early, for being for being gay, for drug use, or for psychological issues.”

I asked what he considered “too sexual too early,” and Paul shot back at me, “Before 5 PM for the afternoon, before 5 AM for morning fun.” I laughed.

“One of my mom’s clients, Henry, was 14 when he got his girlfriend pregnant. My mom said he was a good kid whose father and mother had not been parents to him. In fact, he stayed with us from the time he was 15 until he was 18, last year. He’s in the air force now. My folks have always taken in stray cats. Henry would have gone to a youth prison for indecent exposure if my mom hadn’t brought him home. The charge was dismissed when it turned out he had gone behind a tree to pass water.” (Paul’s English could take an antique turn now and again, but his brilliant green eyes flashed a bewitching grin whatever he said).
“I miss Henry. In some ways, he was the brother I never had, and he could be a real trip. My folks were not shy about sex, but they were my folks. Rooming with Henry was a whole liberal education on its own.”

“How so?”

“Henry slept on a couch his first night, when my mom brought him straight from detention, but the next day my folks got another twin bed and moved it into my room. I was a bit freaked, but he cracked me up. The first night, he said, ‘Listen, dude, I know this is your room, and it must be weird for you. If you want to jerk off or something, just let me know and I’ll give you space.’

Paul said that he had blushed 5 shades of red when Henry said that, but Henry had told him there was no point in pussy-footing around. “We’re guys, we get hardons, we jack off, and either you deal with it without being embarrassed, or you walk around perpetually horny. I sleep nude, cool?”

“I guess,” Paul told him, and he said that within weeks, he and Henry were tight. “Henry was pegged for dumb because he got his girl pregnant, but he was very bright. I never understood why people assumed a horny kid would automatically be dumb.”

“Beats me,” I said.

“You too, eh?”

I spent days parsing that comment and made a mental note to ask him more about Henry.

After Paul had unpacked and gotten settled, I suggested that we grab dinner together and get to know each other. He agreed, and we set off for our dining hall. I avoided asking Paul if he played basketball, because I saw his reaction when a guy carrying a basketball did a double-take as we exited the dorm.

“Hey, man, interested in shooting hoops later?” the guy asked him. “We’ve got a dorm team for intramurals. Check out the schedule on the bulletin board. Our dorm is the Cunning Linguists.”

“Just getting settled,” Paul answered him with a grin, "but your team sounds like a mouthful!”

Our team a mouthful? Things were looking up.

At the dinner line, we each took a tray, and I found myself concentrating on his long, graceful fingers. You can probably guess my thinking... if one appendage is long and graceful; can the others be far behind? Paul ate with class, using his utensils almost aristocratically. He asked me if we were permitted to bring wine to dinner, and I said I didn’t think so.

“A pity,” he said.

“You into wine, women, and song?” I asked?

He smiled and said, “Let’s start with wine, OK?”

Things were looking further up.

We walked around campus, and I tried to get a read on his reactions when his eyes lit on different girls and guys. Damn, Paul could be a poker player. I couldn’t tell his reactions. I was hoping I’d know more by the time we got ready for bed that evening. But I didn’t. Paul was friendly, engaging, charming, and I had visions of walking around with a hardon for a year.

When we got back to the dorm, we watched TV in our room for a while, and then spent time looking at the course list, because the next day we’d be sectioning for classes. I asked Paul whether he had a major in mind. He said that he wanted to study biology, and more specifically botany, and he hoped to do an internship with the park service in the mountains of Washington, Oregon, or California. He said that his dad came from a large family, 10 brothers and sisters, and that his dad’s twin brother had been killed when Mt. Saint Helens exploded in 1980. His dad had taken him out to the mountains hiking and exploring, as a way of mourning and remembering his twin and Paul said he gradually fell in love with the terrain and the Cascades generally. I asked him whether his slim build came from all the hiking or from other exercise.

“I hike a lot,” he said. “Gives me a chance to center my mind. I also meditate.”

“Meditate? Do I need to stay out of the room sometimes?”

“Not really,” Paul replied. “I’ll find a routine that won’t bother you.”

Later on, when we got ready for bed, Paul went to brush his teeth and shower, and he came back to the room with just a towel around his waist. “Uh, I meant to tell you... I usually sleep nude, but I wasn’t sure about tonight, our being new roommates and all. I don’t want to freak you.”

“No worries,” I told Paul. I tried not to be obvious as I practiced peripheral lust. Paul hung up his towel. He was wearing a black Nike jockstrap, nothing else. Just the dimples on the cheeks of his ass were enough to keep me up all night. How was I ever going to sleep?

When he turned around, I glanced nervously at the front of his jock, which showed real promise. Out of nowhere, a phrase I had seen in an article about gay Australia popped into my mind. “Budgie smuggler.” I couldn’t get “budgie smuggler” out of my mind, and I started to chuckle.

“What’s so funny?” Paul said, as he settled under his top sheet?

“Nothing, just remembering a magazine article that was funny.”

“OK. Night, dude.”

“Night,” I said, and as Paul dozed off, I lay there, silently, gingerly manipulating my hardon, trying to get off without a sound. I wasn’t as good at that as I became later. I didn’t want to sigh or moan until I was able to size Paul up and get to know him. With my hand in my boxers, I tried to fall asleep. All I could do was think about Paul’s cute, muscular ass, with the dimples framed by the straps of his jock. I tried thinking of other things. I made lists of favorite songs, favorite movies... and wound up thinking about the 10 young movie actors on my current “stars I must suck off” and “stars I’d bottom for” lists. I could have thought about anything, it didn’t help. If I thought of chrysanthemums, I saw the blossoms sprinkled over the lithe body in the bed opposite mine. I visualized a bagel and immediately wondered if the hole was big enough that I could hook it on Paul’s hardon. I glanced at him, from time to time, but all I could see was the outline of his body. He seemed to be fast asleep, breathing regularly.

I wondered if I dared get out of bed. What if he wakes up and I’m standing there, hard? I got up and went out to the hallway, quietly. I used the bathroom and went back to bed. I got up again. Each time I came in, I spent a few moments peering at the form lying with his back toward me. I strained my eyes trying to see the outline of his jock under the sheet that was stretched over his ass. That’s the last thing I remember.

My cock was hard and sticking out of my fly when I woke up with a start, my heart pounding. My hand was covered with cum. I looked at the bed opposite in terror. It was neatly made, and Paul was gone. I got up quickly and cleaned myself up. How long had Paul been gone? Had he been there when I shot? Did he clear out because I embarrassed him?

I couldn't wait to see him.
 
Tenting Tonight, Chapter 3

And that’s pretty much where thing stayed. I did see Paul naked, of course. He was not an exhibitionist, but he was not shy about getting undressed in front of his roommate. I didn’t have a clue as to whether he knew the effect he had on me. I was too blinded by lust to pick up on any signals he might or might not be sending me. His naked body was what I saw before we turned off the lights, and what I saw while the lights were off and my eyes were closed.

The thing is, lust aside, Paul was a hell of a nice guy. He got along with everyone, he was a good student, and he had lots of friends. With me, he was fun to have around, always keeping up a running commentary about life in general, about classes, about friends... but never giving away too much, I thought. I wanted him to tell me all his deep, dark secrets so that I could tell him my big secret. Sometimes I wondered if he HAD any deep dark secrets. Maybe his life was an open book, and mine was in retreat from the active sex life I had in high school.

See, guys at my college didn’t fuck each other in those days the way they do now. It wasn’t trendy to be bisexual. It was trendy to be horny and in permanent lust over women. If you were a bad boy, you might hop from bed to bed, but only women's beds. Only a decade or two earlier, it was a different world from the world of college students in the 21st century. It was also just before the age of condoms and the big reason why gay men started buying them. In fact, condoms were still in the closet, literally. They were only sold in drug stores and in vending machines at odd places, and in drug stores, you had to ask the pharmacist for help with a personal matter. If he didn’t want to, he didn’t have to sell them to you. Some states still had laws about not selling condoms to men under 21. It’s hard to remember that there was a time when people fucked without being nervous about illnesses. The worst thing that could happen wasn’t life-threatening, thought it was inconvenient and sometimes stung.

On the other hand, guys were less suspicious about other guys’ intentions. People walked around naked without thinking much of it, at least in the dorms. Or before exams, in the library. And there was always a day when people knew there would be a nude volleyball game to break the tension of finals. No one organized it, or at least no one took credit or blame. It just sprang up. For me, it was a glimpse toward what I longed for. Not liberation. Liberation was beyond my hope at that stage. No, my ultimate hope was to get a dorm room overlooking the volleyball net, and to concentrate on inventing a ray that would permit me to see other guys naked. Fantasies, fantasies. You would never know that I’d had at least 75 cocks in my mouth by then. That’s why I say I was in retreat.

Maybe that’s why Paul had so strong an effect on me. He was nonchalant. And if he was cool and nonchalant, I was grievously chalant. Hopelessly chalant. See? I was tying myself up inventing vocabulary to allay the heart-pounding excitement Paul caused when he walked around the room in his jockstrap, or changed clothes, or slept nude above the covers on a hot night. But as soon as I heard him enter the breathing pattern of deep sleep, I would get up and walk round the room, naked. I would hold my had above his body, inches away from his skin, and imagine that I could do with him what I had done with buddies in high school. I would maneuver to get as close as possible to his skin, and I would take a deep breath and get high on his masculine scent.

Hopeless, I know. I was desperate. Haven’t any of you ever been there? Have you? When I was in the room and I knew he had class, I would look at his clothes, and if he happened to leave his jock where I could get at it safely, I’d put it on and jerk myself. I was very careful not to get anything on it, but lying naked on his bed, smelling faint traces of his body, was heaven to me. Now, when I think of it, I’m embarrassed at what I was like. Remembering that excitement also gets my heart pounding even now. And reliving the sense of danger, of possible exposure, still gets me harder than steel.

But that year, my Freshmen year, it took a heavy toll on me. I went to classes during the day, and I was up for hours during the night, too full of desire to sleep, too full of fear to act on my impulses openly. It got to the point where I was falling asleep in classes, and my grades showed it. I was coming to a crisis over Paul, and he apparently knew nothing about it. He never commented on the circles under my eyes. He must have known that I was up until 4 or 5 most nights, but he never questioned it. I got to the point where I was resentful of him. Damn him, why didn't he see that I could bring him untold pleasure? What the fuck was his problem?

Until.

Until the night in late October when I came back to the room, hoping to take a nap before my nightly vigil, and I found Paul stretched out on his bed, lying in the dark, his arm covering his eyes.

"What's wrong?" I asked him.

"Nothing I can talk about."

"Are you OK? Do you feel OK?"

"I have to think."

"Can I help? I want to be there for you?"

"I know that," Paul said. "I got a call from… you don't want to hear."

"I do," I said. "You're not just my roommate; you're my friend, probably my best friend on campus."

"My high school girlfriend… Darice..." Paul began, not knowing how those words cut into my heart. "She called me. We agreed to be together through the summer, until we went away to school. And then to go easy. But she called me tonight, and she's…"

He was finding it difficult to speak. I wanted to hold him, kiss him, put his head on my shoulder, and rub his back. Instead, I sat on his bed next to him and listened.

"She got… See, we were careful; we didn't have sex too frequently. She wanted it more than I did…"

I felt better, momentarily. I was hanging on his every word. "She wanted sex more than you did?"

"Darice wanted me more than I did. I mean, more than I wanted her. She was hot, but there was something missing in the chemistry between us. But in August, we were both feeling the tension of our coming break-up, even though we agreed on it, and things changed. We went swimming, and when we came back to my house, no one was home, and we were going to shower separately, but we showered together, and we wound up fooling around in the shower." Paul paused. The silence was ominous.

"So you fooled around? Why is this coming up now?"

"Because she called me to tell me that she's missed her second period. She doesn't have to tell me that if my girlfriend is known to be pregnant and doesn’t have the baby, or keep the baby, my dad could lose his job. A lot of the mainline churches think that Unitarians are faggoty communists anyway. Shit. What do I do?"

I didn't have a clue what to tell him. I was so confused by the crashing of my hopes for more than a friendship with him that I couldn't think what to say.

Paul continued. "I'm thinking I'll have to fly home to Oregon to deal with it. If I wait until Thanksgiving, it might be too late. But what am I going to do? She doesn't believe in abortion, and I'm not sure I do. I never thought I'd have to worry about it. I always thought that we'd be cool with each other, and we might live together, Darice, and me, and her brother Tommy, I call him Tom-Tom. Oh, God, I never told anybody that before. See, Darice and I had a cool relationship, partly because we never worried about sex, practically at all."

"I thought…"

"No, no, Darice and I were fun, we were a lot of smiles, we were the golden couple in our high school, and no one knew about Tommy."

"What about Tommy?"

"Promise you won't run out of here until I have a chance to explain."

"Dude, just tell me. No worries."

"I didn't worry about sex with Darice because Tommy was… We kind of didn't do too much because Tommy, he… he did a lot."

"I don't understand."

"Tommy's a year younger than Darice. They were only born 11 months apart. We always kidded them about that, and they were sensitive about it. But they were almost like twins, and they had a special bond, more than most older sisters and younger brothers."

"But what does Tommy have to do with your problem?"

"The night we were together at my house, we fell asleep, and Tommy came over and saw us."

"So, he must have known that you were going together."

"Kind of. He's very protective of Darice. He's also a bit of a local legend, as a stud. I called him Tom-Tom because one summer, at camp, he beat off so much. We used to kid him about it."

"But what does that have to do with Darice?"

"He came over looking for me, and we were together. He didn't wake us up. He got undressed and got into bed with us. You can't tell anyone. But I have to tell someone, you, because I need help sorting out my feelings and figuring out what to do."

This was more than I expected.

"I'm here for you."

"You're my best friend."

"So why did Tommy get into bed with you?"

"Be… cause… he and I… we used to… One time, at camp, when I was already a counselor and he was a junior counselor, just 18, I walked in on him, beating off, and he jumped up kind of wrestled me to the ground. He's a wrestler, Tommy. There he was, laughing, naked, his hardon sticking up, and suddenly he was grabbing my ankles, pulling me down to the ground, and he… he… started tickling me, I'm very ticklish, you don't know how ticklish, and suddenly his hand was on my pants, and I got hard, and he said, 'You want to see beating off, I'll show you beating off…' and he held me in a lock while he put his hands in my pants and jerked me off."

"Paul, it's nothing high school kids don't get into, nothing to worry about, I had buddies in high school too…"

"No, you don't understand. I loved it. I wanted him to do it again. It was better than… with Darice."

"OK, so he turned you on."

"No, you don't understand. I think things had been building up to this. I was too stupid to understand what we were all feeling. The times Darice and I were together, it was always because Tommy had turned me on. I don't think Darice really turned me on that much, physically. I love spending time with her, being a couple, but I think sex only happened because of Tommy."

"Are you saying you're bisexual?"

"No. I don't know. Bisexual?"

"Well, if Darice and you were together, and you enjoyed it, and Tommy also floated your boat, I'd say it's the best of both worlds. Didn't Woody Allen say that bisexuals have 50% greater chance of getting a date?"

"You're not freaked?"

"Trust me, I'm not freaked."

"There's more. That night that Tommy got into bed with us, Darice was sleeping, I woke up because Tommy was rubbing his harden on my face."

Why couldn't Paul tell how turned on I was? I was harder than titanium, listening to him. But I wanted to support him.

"He tea bagged you?"

"I guess. I felt something warm and very smooth sort of kissing my lips. I was half asleep, but I thought I was kissing Darice, or maybe her shoulder or her arm. I opened my lips to kiss deeper, and I realized it wasn't Darice."

"He took advantage of your being asleep."

"I know. But a few minutes later, when I realized it wasn't Darice, and what was going on, I played along. There, I've said it."

"Jeez, Paul, lighten up, you're not the first guy to fool around with another guy. Go easy on yourself."

"I have to tell you, because I feel like I'm lying if I don't, and I need help in sorting out my feelings. I knew it was Tommy, and it had to be his cock, and I keep kissing. I was wearing a T-shirt, and he pulled it off me. When I got up to let him get it over my head, I saw that his hand was on Darice too."

"He felt her up?"

"More. He had a finger in her. I couldn't believe it."

"She didn't wake up?"

"She started to wake up, and she put her hand on his wrist, and then I heard her say, 'Give it a rest, Tommy.' And that opens up too big a can of worms for me to deal with."

"Did you three talk about it later?"

"What was I going to say, 'Tommy, old buddy, do you think you could get your cock out of my mouth and your finger out of your sister, my girlfriend, and by the way, the liquid I saw you taste when you juiced up your finger a few minutes ago was my cum."

I couldn't help myself. I chuckled a little. "It does sound like Hollywood's not ready for this script, dude."

For the first time, Paul seemed a little easier. "I'm sorry to lay all this on you, dude. I know it's a lot. Let me finish telling you what happened, there's only a little more, before I get cold feet. I stayed in bed, but I turned my face aside, and Tommy calmed down. His hand was still on me, but I didn't respond, so after a while, he stopped. We lay there, quietly, not talking, both nervous, and then Darice woke up. She stared at Tommy, and then at me, and finally she said, 'Tom, what are you doing here?'

Tommy was kind of ashen-faced, and he said, "I've joined the marines." I thought he was joking.

"The marines?" Darice said. "You? What about finishing school. I know you're 18, but…"

"Fuck school. I'm not made for school. I need action. I want to go out in the world like the two of you are doing. I'm only a year younger, almost."

Paul continued telling me what happened next: "I looked at the two of them, the two people I was probably the closest to outside of my family. I thought about what to say. 'Maybe getting naked and getting into bed with your sister and her boyfriend isn't the best way to go out in to the world.'"

But Tommy, now was now in full flight, raging: "You're as much my friend as you are her boyfriend. Why shouldn't I want to feel good with you? Why shouldn't I want to share feeling with you, make you feel good? Why shouldn't we share the bed? You've both seen me naked before…" Tommy was getting worked up into a rage. "I just wanted to share myself with both of you, not to be left out of your happiness."

"Tommy," Darice began.

"You shut up, sis, you know you love what I do for you."

"Shut up, Tommy."

"I told them both that I didn't want to hear more," Paul said, "and then I got dressed and told them to leave. They did, and I closed the door, took off my clothes, and got into the shower. I stayed in the shower until the water ran cold. I felt like my life was draining away from me, that I had to get away from connections that were going to drag me down."

"You're stronger than that, Paul. And I'm here for you."

"I've been keeping myself from thinking about Darice and Tommy. I saw them only once after that, before we left for Massachusetts. I didn't call, I didn't visit. They backed off too. And then I was so happy here at school, with you as my roommate. And then… then… shit." He was finding it hard to finish his sentence.

"Then nothing. I'll help you. So Darice called to tell you that she's pregnant?"

"No. She called to tell me that Tommy took off for boot camp and never made it. He was killed in a car accident last night, about 6 AM our time, 3 AM Pacific. He had been in boot camp for 10 days, and he called Darice, all upset about guys giving him a hard time, and then he hung up. Two hours later, he was dead. Darice was asked to identify his body, and when they uncovered him, he had two new tattoos. Above his pubes, in small letters, "For Darice." Above his ass, "For Paul."

"Oh, shit."

"So he's dead, she's pregnant, and I'm wondering if there was more to their relationship. I'm wondering if I'm the father. Or if…"

"Tommy?"

Paul nodded, grimly, and then sobbed, once huge sob. I put my arm around his shoulder, and he hugged himself to me. I was torn apart in conflicting emotions, but I put aside my excitement at his touch and just comforted him.

"Let's get some sleep." I said. "We can talk, and tomorrow, I'll help you figure out what to do."

Tenting Tonight, chapter 4

I did it again. I always tell myself I’ve outgrown it, but even now, out to everyone, I still keep some cards close to my chest out of habit I grew into when I was a kid. I hold back. I keep some details private. Like my name, for instance. There’s another reason. I always hated my name. Peter. Pete. Petey. Peachie, as my aunts used to call me when I was little. I was the only one who knew that my first association with “peter” from about age 10 on was “cock.” And I couldn’t very well tell my folks that I resented them naming me after my favorite body part. They would have looked at me like an alien from outer space.

I’m a cock man, not a “dick” man, not a lover of “Johnsons,” or “john thomas,” or “will.” I like the sound of the word “cock,” whereas “dick” always sounds rude to me. Don’t get me wrong, I still like them, lick them, make love to them, but would you call your kid, “Cock?”

Okay, so my name’s Peter, but friends call me “Pete.” Even gay friends. I know that in gay circles, full names are de rigeur. When Morty comes out, he becomes “Mortimer;” when Jeffie comes out, he becomes “Geoffrey, with a ‘g!’ Sammy must now be “Samuel,” and Zach, if he wants to win the hearts and cocks of other men, must go by “Zachariah.” Just one thing: I don’t like “Peter,” I like “Pete,” and fuck them if they can’t take a joke. I’m Pete, and nobody’s asked me to turn in my cocksuckers’ union card yet.

Back to the story at hand (at least several hands, if the email I get is correct). After Paul finally fell asleep, I tried to gather my thoughts. Not on judging him; I was only interested in helping him.

Okay, not only helping him. I also wanted to suck his cock, fuck him, get fucked by him, get sucked by him, rim him, make him crawl up the wall until his eyeballs rolled around like Jim Carrey’s because of the pleasure my tongue could give him... not much to ask, eh? Tickling him, if that’s what he liked. Loving him.

But helping him also.

I finally fell asleep in the early morning hours. I closed my eyes for 2 minutes, and two hours had passed, it was light, and Paul was nowhere to be seen. On the doorknob of our room, where I couldn’t miss it, there was a note.

“Thanks. I don’t know what else to say. I have some shit to think through. I decided I might as well go to class, and you look like you need some serious sleep. If you’re up, call my cell phone at lunchtime, and let’s grab lunch together.”

I dialed Paul’s cell phone. One ring. Two. Three. His voice, cheerful, optimistic:
“Hey, dude, this is my new iPhone. The sound is so clear, it’s like you’re talking into my ear. Bleh! Get your tongue out of my ear... unless you mean it.”

“Paul, your note said something about lunch. I’m up. Call me at the room.”

I found Paul sitting with a tray of food untouched. He looked nervous.

“Dude,” I told him, “first of all, I’m here for you, come thick or thin.”

“I haven’t come yet today, but I’ll let you know which.”

“Sounds like you’re in a better mood.”

“Not really, but you’re listening to my troubles and not hating me makes me feel a lot better, a lot more able to cope.”

“Good. You’re my roommate and my friend. If you have troubles, I want to help you. I know you’d do the same for me.”

“Yeah, but there are troubles and troubles. Admitting that you might be a father, and that your girlfriend, or ex, or whatever, might have also slept with her brother, who decided he wanted to be with you and also with his sister... it sounds like a Mel Brooks parody of a porn movie. But you were great. If you hadn’t been there last night, I don’t know...”

“But I was, and I will be.”

“I wish I knew how to thank you. If there’s every anything I can do...”

I put on my best Godfather voice. “But someday, I may require a service of you.”

Paul laughed. His smile lit up my heart.

We agreed to go to afternoon classes and then to meet up at the room before dinner. When I got to the room, Paul was in the shower. I fantasized about joining him, decided I didn’t have enough time to jerk off without him catching me, took a quick sniff of his jockstrap and let it fall back to the floor, stripped down, and not wanting to meet him in the shower room, I waited and pretended to read. Three minutes later, Paul strode in, whistling what sounded like a Beethoven funeral march. I stood up to go to the shower, and my towel fell open. I quickly gathered myself. As I stood under the shower, I thought over what had just happened. Something was different. Paul had glanced away, as usual, but a little less quickly. Was this just my fantasy, or could he be interested? He did say that he had been attracted to Tommy...

But I quickly decided that I would only drive myself crazy speculating, and that given his emotional stress, I didn’t want to take advantage of Paul. If I hadn’t cared about him, I might have gone for it; I’m no saint. But I did care, and I thought that if I did anything now, it would drive a wedge between us later. And the only wedge I wanted to drive was... well, if you’ve read this far, you know what’s running through my mind when I think of Paul.

No, this was my big Katharine Hepburn moment. Yeah, like every other gay guy, I had about 10 movie scenes I was always ready to jump into. Here, I was Kate the Great in The Philadelphia Story, turning down a noble offer of love that is really only gratitude. Hepburn, Jimmy Stewart, and Cary Grant were only playing on the movie screen between my ears, though I did drape my towel very smartly as I left the shower.

I walked back to the room, imagining that I was sashaying my hips attractively, but really just walking. I wasn’t liberated enough to actually play out my inner movie life on the world’s screen. But in the 40 feet between the bathroom and my dorm room, I imagined Paul reacting to my swinging hips by slamming the door shut, pulling my towel off, and jumping me.

So of course there was a huge bulge in front of my towel when I got to the door.

Paul was sitting on his bed, dressed only in a clean jockstrap. (The one I sniffed was still on the floor where I dropped it. I love a guy who has a drawer full of jockstraps!) He seemed to be startled by my opening the door.

“What’s up?” I offered.

“Is that a gun behind your towel, or are you glad to see me?”

I wasn’t expecting that. What comeback to give him?

“Leave the gun. Take the cannoli.” I replied. And then, feeling good, feeling both self conscious and not self conscious, I dropped the towel, my hardon swung out, and I turned around and grabbed my tightest boxer briefs. As much as we had been naked in front of each other (Paul more than I, actually), I hadn’t simply walked around with my hardon in full view. This was a probe, testing the waters. And I acted purely on impulse.

“You’re giving me an idea,” Paul said. “Not that your cannoli isn’t impressive, but what do you say we go out to Lindoro’s, that Italian restaurant on Mass Ave.” Having been in Boston for all of 12 hours longer than Paul, if that much, I knew to say, “Mass Av,” pronouncing “Av” to rhyme with “have,” rather than to pronounce “Ave” as “Avenue.” Paul still said, “Avenue.”

“Why does that word stick in your mouth? Just say ‘Ave’ like people do here.”

Everybody from out of state who starts college in Massachusetts has to get used to the local accents, unless you’re from Maine, New Hampshire, or Vermont, or you’re an upper crust New Yorker like the Roosevelts, and even their grandchildren and great-grandchildren don’t all talk that way. When I first got to Boston, I told my folks after a few weeks that every bum on the street sounded like President Kennedy.

“So now you’re interested in sticking things in my mouth?” Paul said. I was taken aback. Some occasional bits of flirting humor were normal in our banter, but keeping it up (no pun... well maybe one) was not our normal relationship. But I was wary about reading my own fantasies into Paul’s behavior. On the other hand, if this flirting was going to lead somewhere, I wanted to be there!

In fact, when I thought about it, which I did every minute, or so it felt, I found that Paul was behaving differently from what I expected. He was suddenly more physical with me, which I loved. Every time he put his arm around me, I stored up the sense-memory to jerk off with later. I wasn’t yet ready to believe that Paul knew what he was doing.

Of course he did.

So we hopped on the T, Green Line, and in no time we were outside Lindoro’s. There was a line. We stood in line with a bunch of other students, techno-geeks, frat boys, sorority women with sorority sweaters, rah-rahs, and a few gay men. I kept my eye on them, because I always wanted to see how they acted, how other reacted, and whether they ran into trouble. I guess if I look back that I was scouting the way forward for myself.

One of the gay guys, a slender, red-haired boy with a dancer’s build, was standing quietly against the restaurant’s brick wall and watching one of the frat boys. Not so obviously as to be noticed by everyone, but it was clear, if you followed his line of sight. He seemed to be trying very discreetly to get the other guy’s attention, but to no avail. Finally, the red-head stepped over to the other guy and tapped his shoulder. The frat boy turned, and I saw his face go through a clear series of responses in two or three seconds. He seemed to recognize the redhead, then to greet him, then to scowl visibly, as if for public consumption. The redhead kept his voice low, but I heard the words, “not enough on me” and “borrow.” The other frat boys had gotten quiet and were watching. Seeing that, the frat boy said in a loud voice, “Keep your fucking hands off of me, faggot!” But not everyone noticed what I saw, that his hand, with a $20 bill in it, darted forward and deposited the 20 in the redhead’s shirt pocket, even as he turned and strode off toward his frat buddies.

The redhead stood, almost stunned, for a moment. A burst of laughter emerged from the frat boy herd, which was merging with the sorority herd. The redhead backed up into a shadow and leaned against the brick wall. I turned toward Paul. He was staring at the redhead.

“Paul?”

“That kid’s crying,” Paul said.

“Which kid?” I asked, fascinated by Paul’s attention to the redhead.

“The red-haired guy. Did you see what passed between those two?”

“Sort of. Let’s go, the line is moving forward.”

“Is he by himself?”

“I don’t know. Why?”

“Because he shouldn’t be alone if he’s that upset. Let’s go over there and see if he’s OK.”

Without waiting for my answer, he headed for the redhead. The guy saw Paul, tall and muscular, headed for him, and he braced himself, as if he were about to be assaulted.

“Dude,” Paul said, “I’m Paul. I’m sorry to butt in, but we couldn’t help but overhear a bit of your conversation. That kid was rude to you. Are you OK?”

The redhead just stared up at Paul, without saying a word. His tongue was mopping up a few salty teardrops that had trickled down his face. I joined the conversation. “I’m Pete. Look, we just wanted to be sure that you were OK and safe, is all. We’re not trying to... uh...”

“Are you by yourself?” Paul asked, looking at the redhead. The boy nodded deeply, his eyes big with emotion, but what emotion precisely, he still kept to himself.

“Look, you seem kind of shaken. Do you want to have dinner with us? You can just sit with us, you don’t need to talk or to feel any obligation. If you want to, you’re welcome.”

The boy nodded again to Paul, and then turned his eyes on me. I nodded to, and put out my hand. “What’s your name?”

“Liam,” the redhead said. His voice was surprisingly deep for guy with his slight build. He couldn’t have weighed much more than 100 lbs., maybe 120 sopping wet. His eyes were a greenish hazel, over angular cheekbones. He still looked dazed, but then he smiled, impishly, his cheeks forming dimples that dazzled me, and he said, “Let’s go in.”

We entered the restaurant, which was a little less crowded by then. Paul went to have a word with the head waiter, who was seating people, and whatever he said did the trick. We were ushered to a table in a quiet alcove. It was cool. The doorway was a semi-circle, floor to floor, and the top of the doorway was only 5 feet from the floor, so you had to stoop to get in, but it had lots of privacy, including a 1920s style beaded curtain that you could lower to give you even more privacy.

The head waiter himself came to our table. He was a handsome guy, very debonair in his penguin suit. He seemed to have eyes for Paul, which didn’t earn him any popularity with me.

“Is this private enough for monsieur?” he said.

“Oui, merci,” Paul answered him. “Mais, l’anglais, s’il vous plait, pour mes amis.”

“D’accord. Would you gentlemen like to see the wine list?”

You’re probably thinking that we were too young. But after the voting age was lowered to 18, Massachusetts also lowered the drinking age to 18, but then raised it to 20 at the end of the 1970s. Don’t ask me. I was never much of a drinker, anyway. Neither, as it turned out, was Paul. But he was, against all odds, knowledgeable about wines.

“Are you guys going to have Italian dishes?” Paul asked.
We each nodded agreement. Paul ordered a bottle of Chianti classico, and a slightly amused glint of the eye seemed to pass between the waiter and Paul.

“Monsieur has excellent taste,” the waiter purred, and Paul then asked him if he had a grandjo, a Portuguese white wine. Liam and I watched, surprised, as the waiter said he would check.”

“What?” Paul said.

“You sure know a lot about wine,” Liam said. It was the first sentence he’d uttered since we walked in the door.

“Yeah, where’d you learn all that?” I asked Paul.

“My grandfather imported wines for years,” Paul said. “And my great-great-grandfather was an internationally known expert on viticulture. His father, my great-great-great-granddad, for whom I’m named, shipped California rootstocks to France more than 100 year ago, when French vineyards were almost wiped out by a blight. The California vines were resistant, and most of today’s French wines grow as a result of French vines being grafted on to American roots. That Paul traveled to France and was awarded the Legion of Honor by Napoleon III.”

“What about your great-grandfather?” Liam asked Paul.

“He died, at 20, in the first wave of Americans to hit the trenches in World War I. He had been married for 2 months, had been in France for 2 weeks, and my great-grandmother was pregnant with my grandfather, their only child.”

“Sad,” Liam said. I suddenly realized that Paul was deliberately drawing Liam out, getting to think outside himself, very skilfully. I looked at my roommate not only with love and lust, but with admiration.

“Very sad,” I agreed.

The wine arrived, the red and the white. Paul approved the corks, to the amusement of the waiter, who didn’t expect a handsome young college student to act in so sophisticated a manner. I noticed that the Chianti bottle had a seal affixed to its neck. I looked closely. It was a black rooster.

“What’s this mean?” I asked Paul.

But it was Liam who volunteered an answer. “It’s the symbol of the ‘black cock’ that indicates the best Chianti. When you see the black cock on the bottle, you know you’re tasting quality.”

I choked.

Paul, on the other hand, said, “I think you’re referring to the ‘gallo nero,’ the ‘black cockerel.’ Yes, it’s a sign of fine Chianti.”

Paul had appeared during that sentence, and he was now grinning. “Monsieur is quite correct. ‘Il gallo nero,’ the black cock-erel, was the trademark of the old Chianti league. It is a fine wine that bears it, but there are others besides the black cock. Is monsieur ready to order?” the waiter asked?

“Not yet, Paul,” my Paul said.

“A few minutes, then. Enjoy.”

“How the hell did you know that his name was Paul?” I asked Paul.

“Okay, okay. I figured we wanted a quiet spot, and since I read about this place a few days ago in the Phoenix, and they said to ask the head waiter, Paul, about a ‘chambre séparée,’ I took my chances. I walked up to that guy and said, ‘Paul, do you have a chambre séparée for three young men who have a need to forget themselves this evening?’ He looked at me, winked, and said, ‘I would be delighted if I might forget myself with you and your friends as well.’ I told him that at the least, we would be delighted for him to marshal our dinner to our table, and asked him what he recommended. He looked at me as if sizing me up and said, “Coq au vin.’ I looked him right in the eye, hoping not to crack up, and said, ‘One thing at a time. Let’s start with the wine.’ And the next thing I knew, he put us in this alcove.”

“We’d better figure out what to order,” I wondering at every word I was hearing, which poked its way into my fantasies about Paul.

“What do you recommend, besides the black cock?” Liam asked Paul, not even bothering to be sly.

“’The black cockerel,’ please,” Paul answered, grinning as well. It’s a wine label, that’s all.”

Sure, I thought. Paul continued:

“I took the liberty of ordering red wine for you because you were interested in Italian dishes. For me, I wanted to get a filet of sole, so I ordered the white wine. But then I thought about it, and I ordered chicken for dinner, and the white wine goes fine with that also.”

Paul the waiter came back, and we ordered. I noted with some jealousy that he had eyes only for Paul. Paul seemed to enjoy flirting with him. My God, I was learning new sides of Paul every 24 hours!

Over dinner, Liam began to open up a bit. We held back asking what had happened outside, but he knew we were curious. He seemed to assume we were a couple. Finally, Paul asked him directly.

“So Liam, if you don’t mind my asking, what was it that happened outside?” Liam nodded, his mouth full of red wine and pasta.

“When I got here, I didn’t see the friends I was supposed to meet. I got out of lab late, and I arrived almost an hour after we were supposed to meet. They’re probably long gone by now. I looked around as we were walking in, and I didn’t see them. They’re a couple of friends from the drama department at my school. I’m designing the set and lights for our next main stage show as a project for my studies, and we’ve been working together. I realized also that I didn’t have enough cash on me to have dinner, and I was about to leave when I spotted my brother.”

“Your brother?” I sputtered. “That asshole who called you names was your brother?”

“He’s not so bad,” Liam answered. “He calls me names once in a while to keep up appearances when his fraternity brothers are around. then he apologizes and makes it up to me. He slipped me some money while they were concentrating on his being nasty.”

“I saw,” I told Liam.

But Paul was not to be deterred. “You put up with that shit?”

“If I have to,” Liam said. “So, are you guys together?”

“Together,” Paul said, rolling the word on his tongue, but not answering. I filed that away for later.

“Boyfriends, lovers, whatever,” Liam said. “You know that I’m gay. I assume you knew that when you walked over to me. You seemed so friendly, so concerned, like a safe harbor, and I needed it just then. I’m kind of lonely since starting school a couple of months ago.”

“We’re Freshmen too,” I told Liam.

Just then, Liam’s brother appeared at the entrance of our alcove. He poked his head in. “You OK?” he asked Liam.

“No thanks to you,” Paul answered him.

“Who are you?” Liam’s brother asked. “Are you guys friends of my brother’s? Gay guys?”

“They’re friends,” Liam put in. “And thanks for the 20, but next time you call me a faggot in front of your frat buddies, I’ll tell them a story or two about Thanksgiv...”

“Shut up, Liam,” his brother said, quickly. “Look, are you OK? Do you need a ride or something? Do you have enough cash? I didn’t mean anything...”

“No, you didn’t mean to hurt me, but you never do,” Liam told him. “But you always manage.”

“This is between you and me, not your little friends,” the brother said.

Paul stood up in our alcove. “Good night,” he said. Liam’s brother, no taller than Liam, looked him up and down and backed off.

“Night,” he said, disappearing rapidly.

The three of us looked at each other, and Paul picked up his glass. “A toast.”

“To?”

“New friends.”

“And coq au vin,” I added.

Paul grinned, then kind of grimaced. Liam smiled at us both.

It was understood, somehow, at least by me, that Liam was coming back to the dorm with us. I was surprised, then, when he told us that he hoped he would see us again soon, as we counted out the money and paid the bill. Paul left a generous tip and a note for Paul the waiter. I was dying to ask him what he said in the note.

We hopped on the T and as we got close to Liam’s stop, he handed us each a note. I opened mine. When had he had time to write it? All it said was, “Liam,” and a phone number.

“Call me,” Liam said. I’m serious. You guys were good friends to me this evening when I needed a friend, and I won’t forget.

Then he surprised me by giving each of us a European style cheek kiss, and saying, “Au revoir,” audibly. An elderly lady, blue hair in a net, looked down her nose at us, harrumphing loudly.

I decided to create a diversion. “And your great-great-grandfather received his title directly from Napoleon III?”

Paul looked at me, startled for a moment, and then played along. “Only a secondary title. Our original estates were granted to my family by Louis XIII, though Louis XIV took a parcel of land back when he was building Versailles. A century later, we suffered in the Revolution, but the Marquis de Lafayette saved my great-great-great-great grandmother from the guillotine. When Napoleon permitted Lafayette to return to France, she came too, in disguise, and she was able to report to my great-great-great-grandfather, in exile in England, that our chateau was still standing. Napoleon never permitted our family to return, but he never confiscated our chateau either. It was returned to us later, and it is still in my family’s hands. Not even Hitler dared to confiscate it. An affront to my family would be an affront to the honor of France as great as that of the conquest of France. Hitler had France, he did not need our chateau. Luckily, because we saved many a brave resistance officer, and many Jewish families of our area.”

The blue-hair was gaping at Paul, who had begun speaking with a progressively stronger French accent during this whole conversation. I was laughing up my sleeve, and when we hopped off the T near our dorm, I exploded with laughter, joined by Paul. We held each other up as we marched arm in arm to the dorm, stopping for assault by gales of laughter that shook us.

Once in the room, we headed right for the bathroom. Each of us had to “drain the lizard,” another expression of Paul’s, having nothing to do with reptiles.

Back in the room, Paul quickly stripped down to his jockstrap once again. “I’m going to shower up,” he said, and he doffed the jock as he wrapped himself up in his towel.

“I’m too tired,” I said, and I started getting undressed.
“I’m going to watch a little TV and go to sleep,” I told Paul, as he left the room.

But first, as soon as the door shut, I was on the floor, grabbing that jockstrap and sniffing it deeply, inhaling Paul’s masculine scent, rubbing it on my face, tasting it, and then rubbing it gently on my hard cock.

Suddenly, I knew what I was going to do.

I put the jockstrap back on the floor, and I pulled my remaining clothes off. I lay back on my bed, completely nude, and I turned on the TV. There was a black-and-white rerun of an old Alfred Hitchcock show on, and I love those old shows. No one was ever like Hitchcock. And the name fit in with my scheme.

As the half-hour show started to unfold, a very handsome, very fair gentleman began to discuss his hopeless love for his distant cousin, the daughter of a duke. I watched him, admired how his tight clothing seemed to be poured on him (despite Hitchcock’s famous dictum that costumes should not make you wonder how people wearing them ever went to the bathroom). I tugged a bit at my cock, and it responded by growing into a hardon. I was nervous, eager, excited, turned on.

Soon, I was rewarded with a pole standing straight out of my crotch. I licked my hand and lubricated the head, and I made a circular motion, rubbing the head against the palm of my hand.

The door opened, and Paul stepped into the darkened room. He held the door open for only a second, and he did not turn the light on, but finished drying himself. He did not say a word to me, nothing at all about my lying there, stroking myself in front of him, something we had never done. I waited, a million years passing each second as my heart pounded. I was going for broke.

Paul sat down on my bed, still naked. He did not look at me. I did not look at him. I could see, peripherally, that his eye was glancing nervously at my hard cock and my hand going up and down, ever so slowly.

I saw a stirring in his lap. His cock, which had been dangling, relaxed, began to bob up and down. He was getting hard! I steeled myself against looking directly, but I could see him out of the corner of my eye.

Hitchcock’s half-hour moved to its enigmatic end. We both laughed as the show ended with the director’s trademark, deadpan commentary. A new episode started. Paul moved his hips slightly to be closer to me. His hand rested at my side, and he leaned in, slightly, so that I looked past his handsome profile toward the TV. He faced the TV, but he now had a better view of my hardon, and my hand, moving.

The first commercial break came, and the TV screen brightened. My heart was pounding mercilessly, but I was determined that I had gone out as far on a limb as I dared. If anything was going to happen, Paul had to initiate it.

The next segment of the show began, and room was darker because of the black-and-white image. Paul seemed transfixed by the image, but without warning, he bent his elbow and rested his head on my chest, lying down alongside me, but with one foot on the floor. His ear was on my chest. He had to know how hard my heart was beating.

We chatted, as if nothing were going on. Another commercial. He could see my cock lit up in front of the brighter screen. He shifted his hips ever so slightly, and I felt something against my lower ribs. I knew what it was.

The screen darkened again for the final segment. The plot reached its conclusion, and as the theme song, Funeral March for a Marionette, began to play, Paul lowered his face and kissed the head of my cock. I reached out and stroked his neck.

“Coq au vin? and then that wine with the seal of the black cockerel?” I asked, in a deep voice.

Paul chuckled and then quickly took my hardon down his throat in a single gulp.
 
Absolutely Awesome, comeagain! :=D:

I am enjoying your pace and style. Very conversational, and, yet, confidential, as if you are writing specifically just for the reader who happens to be reading! And, this doesn't read as a spoken story, as through we're sitting across a table, or on a couch with our feet up, but rather as a letter written for a close friend. Something quite personal to be warmly shared, and cherished. ..|

I sense we are of the same era, and you are catching the tone, and texture, of those times, in very profound ways. You've triggered some memories that I had, somehow, misplaced, and I'm quite heartened at your writing giving them a resurgence. (group)

Of course we need MORE!! :badgrin: (!) (!w!)

THANK YOU! And, yeah ... no matter what ...

Keep smilin'!! :kiss:(*8*)
Chaz :luv:
 
Fantastic! This is a very sexy, intriguing story that is so well written that the action virtually leaps off the screen.
 
I love your style and the story is very compelling. I'm hooked!

Thanks to Chaz for telling me about this.
 
Tenting Tonight, Chapter 5

Reader, I haven’t forgotten about Liam the Red. He comes into this story again, and yes, he comes in this story. Be patient. I won’t forget him. Not the lad that made redheads a fetish for me ever since, whom I think of every time I feel attracted to a red haired man (as in, every time I see one).

Each of these characters is based directly on someone significant in my life, though the names have been changed somewhat to guard the privacy of the innocent. No one is guilty for liking other guys, so they’re all innocent. But then again, as Mae West said, “I used to be Snow White, but I drifted.”

Me too.

If you have questions or comments about the guys in the narrative or observations about life, love, and lust, by all means drop me a note. I’ll reply. I may not respond to offers of sex, but you never know. At least, I don’t. (Actually, I do, and that’s not a gun in my pocket.)

-—

I gasped with pleasure as I felt Paul’s lips form a tight “O” around my cock and move up and down my shaft. This skill had to reflect experience, and I couldn’t wait to get to the bottom of it, or of Paul, for that matter. Paul’s tongue flicked back and forth across my cock as he plunged down and then up. I was close to coming, all at once, and I wanted Paul to come in my mouth before I came in his. I began to turn to the side, and Paul pivoted with me. I held his head to my chest, feeling his hair against my chest. As best I could, I leaned down and thrust my tongue into Paul’s ear. He squirmed and tightened his mouth action on the head of my cock.

You get strange images in your head as you’re about to have a great orgasm. I kept trying to stick my tongue in Paul’s ear, right through, and out the other ear. I kept jabbing with the tip of my tongue, and I knew he was enjoying it from the moans he was emitting. I think the last noise that loud was when Krakatoa exploded.

Now remember, as far as I knew until just before this, the lust had all been on my side. I had begun to suspect that Paul had feelings for me, but I was a bit too insecure to believe that someone as charming and handsome as he would want me. When I was rational, I thought, “Why wouldn’t he want me?” but rationality and a hard cock are not always compatible.

I let my fingers feel their way to Paul’s nipples, and I played with them gently. I felt a tremor beneath my hands, and then I felt Paul’s mouth moving irregularly, breaking the excellent pattern he had established in my nether regions. He was kind of sputtering, squirming, almost sneezing, snorting, and he seemed on the verge of a fit. I knew what it was, of course, and that told me how I was going to take my pleasure by giving him a great orgasm once he had had his fun with me. (Taking advantage of your roommate by giving him a great orgasm is a dirty, rotten trick that I wouldn’t advise doing more than 6 times nightly.)

Having charted my course, I relaxed my hands and let Paul take the lead. He bobbed, he swirled his tongue, he welled up with spit and let it run down my hardon, he hummed... he was good at this! And then I felt his hand exploring my bottom. He put his middle finger in his mouth and then poked around my rear with it. Finding my ass-lips, he began playing with me down there, moving his long middle finger around in a circle. I found this amazing... none of the guys I had serviced in high school had ever been this caring, this affectionate. I felt the tip of Paul’s tongue probing the slit on my cock, digging as if for gold. I relaxed my back and kind of slumped down. It was a blissful mistake!

Quick as lightning, Paul reached between my legs. I thought this was another sexual move, but it was pure wrestling. He flipped me onto my back, pulled my legs over his shoulders, and went back down on me, all in less than 30 seconds. I had to get my breath back, but his talented mouth was keeping me on the edge, now, teasing, never quite pushing me over, but keeping me right there. I moaned now, almost as loudly as he had, and when I began to move my hips in a slight circular motion, an instinctual fucking motion, he had me. He pulled my all the way down his throat until his lips were buried in my pubes, his tongue reached down to my balls and with a little bit of skin captured, he sucked my balls halfway into his mouth alongside my own cock. And then came the finger.

No warning. A full-finger jab, right up my butt into my intestines, through the first ring of muscles, up to the second, amazingly deep, and then he went right for my prostate. I felt the first bit as a twinge of pain, and then when he hit the button, I exploded buckets. His mouth was so full of cum that it must have been pouring out his lips, but he kept rooting right to the very base of my cock.

You know how after you cum, your cockhead gets very sensitive, to the point that you can’t stand anything to touch it, and the only thing worse than someone touching you then is no one touching you? Paul was driving me crazy. His tongue and his hand kept moving, just enough that I was climbing the walls, speaking languages yet to be invented, and generally writhing in ecstasy.

Ten minutes, he kept it up. Ten minutes I loved him. I wanted him to be mine for the rest of my life. I wanted to have his baby. I wanted to make him cum hard. I wanted to taste him. I wanted to probe his innermost parts with my tongue. I wanted it all.

So when he thought he had me, just as the birds began singing, at dawn, I stretched my fingers out on the bed, took aim, and place my hands on his abdomen. And tickled. Paul reacted as if I had knocked the stuffing out of him. He began to giggle, then to laugh, then to cry, then to shriek in silent agony / ecstasy, with noises for which there is no human counterpart that I can describe to you. He chanted, “Please, please, please, please, please, please, please,” a chain of “pleases” that stood for all kinds of words. One please really was a plea. One was a threat. One was a promise. One was submission. One was determination. He was not only naked in front of me. His soul was naked in front of me.

An excellent position in which to begin sucking your roommate’s cock. I let up on the tickling and took him into my mouth. My fingers were still stretched out on his abdomen, but I relaxed them and concentrated on what my mouth was doing. I really didn’t know how much experience Paul had, but he clearly knew what to do with a cock in his mouth. But no matter if he had gotten his cocksucking merit badge, I had more experience than he in that department. I was certain of that.

I felt his cock with my tongue. He was cut, which I thought was a pity, but I knew that already. I’d seen his cock plenty, buy there’s nothing like a seeing eye tongue when it comes to getting to know a guy’s equipment. I delved lovingly into every tiny crevice, every wrinkle of his skin, every follicle.

Hair. These days, it seems to be out of vogue, except on top of guys’ heads. A straight guy I know tells the guys in the locker room that he has to keep his body smooth as a baby’s bottom or else his girl / woman / bitch (depending upon his mood, the pig) won’t suck him. I suppose it’s fashion. To me, a guy with no pubes looks like a little kid, and I’m turned on by men, not by little kids. I like twinks, sure, but I like them with hair. I want to tongue their public hair, I want to feel it against my cheeks. I want to feel my lips against it. Does it freak me to get a hair in my mouth?

No.

Yes, oh twenty-first century boys, hair! Pubic hair. The mark among boys that you’re going into puberty, and among men, a marker too. Don’t get me wrong. If a guy wants to shave his back, that’s his business. But give me a man with a scattering of hair, a treasure trail, a pubic bush.

What’s that, twenty-first century boys? I should just shut up and let you live? Go ahead. I’m not stopping you. I’m stating my preferences. And if you don’t like the boys who have pubic hair, send them all to me. All of them. Together, one at a time, in groups of three, or four, or five, or six. Six is about the limit of how many I’ve done in one sitting, except for special occasions.

But I digress. And with Paul’s cock in my mouth, I don’t want to digress.
I left off the tickling, because I had plans for how to use it to my advantage.

Instead, I began to use all the experience I had at my command to push Paul over the edge. I used my lips to press in on him. I used my tongue without stopping, rubbing, licking, probing. I formed my mouth tighter, I took him as deep as I could, until my deep throat muscles could form a caressing ring. I put a finger into his ass, withdrew, inserted two fingers, withdrew, inserted three fingers, stretching him. My fingers weren’t as long as his, but they were thicker, and unless he was more experienced than I believed, three fingers, then four as I continued, had to be giving him food for thought. Four fingers. I withdrew, then plunged my thumb into him. My mouth continued what I was doing up front; I rooted around with my them, then withdrew and re-angled just enough that Paul must be wondering if I intended to try to fist him. He groaned with pleasure as I pressed my fingers inward, but before his ass muscles could accommodate 5 fingers, I felt the throbbing feeling that meant he was close.

Paul’s hips began to hammer in faster. His cock was like steel, like glass, hard and unyielding. I tasted the slightly salty-sweet taste of Paul’s pre-cum, and on his next thrust inward, I suddenly clamped my throat muscles as tightly as I could around his cock when it was past my tonsils. I held on for dear life, willing him to be unable to pull himself out of my throat. He squealed all kinds of tones deep in his own throat, and then he groaned with relief as jets of his cum began to squirt into my throat. I milked Paul with my mouth. I didn’t torture him as he had me, but only because I had another level of tantalizing frustration planned in my head.

We put our spermy lips together and kissed, our tongues probing each other. We played gently with each other’s nipples as we kissed. We held each other, each feeling the other’s heartbeat against him, each glorying in the feel of hard muscles against him, each sometimes letting a hand stray downward to cup the other’s ass gently. We reached the loving time when you savor your pleasure and your partner’s pleasure in having done what we had just done, in having shared pleasure. We kept nibbling, nuzzling, sharing tongues, sharing tastes, sharing lips. We dozed like that, falling asleep together, our arms around each other. One or another of us would wake up and start again, and we’d keep making love without taking it anywhere. We didn’t need to be anywhere. We were together, and that was enough.

If this was how sex was going to be with Paul, bring it on.

We showered in one stall, taking pleasure in each other’s nakedness, the chance of discovery providing a frisson of nervous fear. We weren’t ready to proclaim ourselves partners, or lovers, or mutual cocksuckers. We hadn’t talked it over yet. There was a lot to talk about.

But by unspoken agreement, until we went back to our regular class schedules and were living in the world outside our room, we stayed within the reality of our mutual secret, while it still was just our secret. We didn’t go to classes that day. We also didn’t analyze what had happened. Questions formed in my head, and I filed them. Only an asshole starts questioning why his orgasm feels so good before it’s over, and that’s what this night and day were for the two of us, a long, loving orgasm. There was something naughty and nice about walking to our dining area together that evening, able just by a swallowing or a tasting gesture to indicate, “Yes, I can still taste you inside my mouth,” and also finding ways of saying, “I want you, I need you in my mouth again.”

“Let’s go for a ride,” Paul said as we got to the dinner line. “I don’t want to sit here surrounded by all these people. I want to find someplace where we can talk quietly. Let’s go back to Lindoro’s, OK?”

“OK.”

"I’ll call Paul, our waiter.”

“Will he be there now?”

“Who knows? Won’t hurt to try. Let’s go back to the room.”

“Okay.” I began singing, softly, the refrain to an old song:
“But just remember who’s taking you home,
And in whose arm’s you’re gonna be.
Oh, baby, save the last dance for me!”

Paul’s eyes rolled up to the ceiling as he grinned at me. We got back to the room and he immediately dialed the number on the slip of paper Paul the waiter had given him.

“Paul?” he said into the phone. I could only hear his half of the conversation. It’s Paul, from last night at Lindoro’s. Il gallo nero?”

I could hear the other Paul’s voice coming faintly from , but not make out his words.

“Yes, that’s right. My buddy and I would like to come for dinner again tonight. Yes, a private chambre. Will you be there? Maybe you could show us what you recommend on your menu. Besides your coq au vin.”

I saw Paul’s eyebrows go up.

“Really? That sounds very impressive. But tonight’s just for the two of us, n'est-ce pas? No, my red-haired buddy won’t be joining us tonight. Just Pete and me. Pete. My boyf... my roommate.”

“See you soon.”

“What did he say?”

“Other than offering me truffles, paté, and fine wine for a shot at your hot ass, only that he’ll have a private room for us.”

“How good was the wine?”

"Why,” Paul asked.

“I know how you like your wine, and I want to know what my chances are.”

Paul cracked up. We headed for Lindoro’s, a bit of a trek.

Paul the waiter was indeed waiting for us. And on us, again. He beamed with delight as we greeted him. “If you permit me, messieurs, it is wonderful to see two young men like you, so in love.”

“Merci,” my Paul said.

“With your permission, I will order for you from my special menu. No, do not worry about the expense. No expense. There are certain privileges that come with a knowledge of what and whom my employer fancies.”

“Is that blackmail?”

“Certainly not!” Paul replied. He led us to a different private room one floor up from where we had been the night before. When he opened the door, we were happy to see that he had lit a fire in the fireplace. This room was lit by soft candlelight.

As Paul began to light a few more candles, he spoke to us: “When I began here, 8 years ago, the owner fancied me. I was liberal with my favors with him, and he rewards me even now for the intimacy we shared. And occasionally still share. I do not shock you?”

“No.”

“Because otherwise how else would the son of a Cape Verde fisherman get off prancing around here with a fancy-ass French accent that’s straight out of Inspector Clousseau?” Paul the waiter asked, without a trace of the rarefied French accent he had been affecting. “You can think what you like, but if the price of ruling the roast here is...”

“Don’t you mean ‘roost?’” I asked.

The waiter smiled at me. “Look it up, college boy. You’ll find that “roost’ is a corruption of ‘roast’ in that expression, I was a student before I was a waiter, and my major was English lit, with a strong minor in linguistics.”

“Gotcha,” I said. “Sorry.”

Our waiter grinned. “Don’t be. I learned to use language as a tool of offense and defense. I had to, a gay boy in an immigrant community. I learned that as long as my studies worked to the benefit of my community, they didn’t really care what I did with my tongue. Or other features. And if they did care, they didn’t say anything, because I took care of people who needed help, who needed translation, who needed me.”

“Cool,” I said, intrigued. This guy is worth knowing, I thought. We can learn a lot from him. And with him. I wonder if the two of us will ever go to bed with him.

“We’re looking forward to dinner,” my Paul said. “We’re starving. We haven’t eaten anything all day. At least, not food.”

Paul the waiter smiled knowingly. He began singing, softly, a melody from Carmen as he arranged the table gently and then left the room. “L'amour est enfant de Bohême, Il n'a jamais, jamais connu de loi...”

We looked at each other and cracked up. So Paul the French waiter was a Portuguese kid.

“What do you think?” I asked Paul.

"I think Paul is a good guy to know.”

“Why, you want to...”

“No, not exactly. Maybe one of these days. But we have a lot to talk about.”

“OK, let’s talk. So tell me what’s the deal? Are you gay? Bi? I know last night wasn’t your first time.”

“What about you? You know your way around a hardon.”

“I’d like to put a lot of things around your hardon, one of which I’m sitting on.”

“You must think I’m pretty easy if you think I’d fuck that chair.”

I chuckled. “Leave the chair. Take the cannoli.”

Paul laughed too. “Only if you’ll take a bite of mine.”

“Been there, done that.”

“And you did a fine job. I think I’ll keep you.”

“Just for my mouth?”

“Yeah. I’ll get a dentist to remove the rest of you and just keep your mouth around for hot sex.”

We were kissing, gently, when Paul the waiter returned with a small tureen of delicately flavored lentil soup.

“Gentlemen, I see nothing.”

“You see what we want you to see,” my Paul told him. “We have plans for you, but not for tonight.”

“I will dream.”

Paul the waiter fell back into his flirtatious song about l’amour. I noticed that his nose appeared to have been broken at some point in the past, but the slightly asymmetrical nose that resulted was very sexy. His eyelashes were full and made his eyes sexy. I wondered if he was uncut. Must be.

“A penny for your thoughts,” my Paul said, bringing me back to reality.

“Later,” I said.

The waiter placed a number of covered dishes onto the carved sideboard and withdrew.

As the door closed, my Paul said, “OK. I’ve been watching you in the weeks since we moved in together. I get the impression that you are attracted to me. Am I right?”

“Not on your life,” I replied. “You think I want my cock in your mouth every night?”

“I hope not.” Paul said, keeping up the sexy banter. “Because I hope you want to find more places around me where your cock is welcome.”

He couldn’t lack experience, not with a comment like that.

“So what do you want to know?” I said.

“I think we should be honest with each other. I know you well enough now that I’m not afraid to share my secrets with you. You know about Tommy and Darice and what they each meant to me. Do you have a Tommy and a Darice?”

“More than one Tommy. Some minor-league Darices. Nothing like what you’ve gone through.”

“There’s more to my story.”

“I kind of figured.”

“And there’s more to yours?”

“Where to begin?” I told Paul about my high school sex life, trying hard not to sound like a slut. When I finished, he looked at me quizzically. “What?” I asked.

“I had you pegged all wrong,” Paul said, quietly.

“You can peg me tonight if you play your cards right. Or we can peg each other. Or if you’re real nice, I’ll peg you.”

“I’ll have a little of each. I am amazed. You seemed so straight, so together, when we met...”

“And the Oscar goes to..”

“Straight acting?”

“Paul, here are my cards on the table. I have been with a lot of guys, fooling around. Nothing serious, not like what I felt last night. Yes, it’s true. I’ve watched you and lusted after you. You make me hard. You make me want you. I’m falling in love with you. Is that OK?

“I’d say it’s more than OK. The feeling is mutual. I told you, even though I loved making it with Darice, I knew something was missing for me as soon as Tommy touched me. And it wasn’t as innocent or as casual as I told you. Tommy had his hands all over me, even though he was younger, from the first time I slept over at their house, when I brought Darice back late one night, and their mom thought I looked too tired to drive home but wouldn’t let me sleep in Darice’s room. She put me in Tommy’s bedroom. He walked around in his underwear, and I noticed him. He was hard. It was hard, I mean, not to notice.”

“But you’re still dealing with Tommy’s death. I don’t want you just on the rebound. I want you because you want to be with me.”

“Tommy was a trip by himself. He was funny, he was irreverent, he was impossible a lot of the time. He took advantage of people. He wanted to have... or had... sex with his own sister AND his sister’s boyfriend. I enjoyed him. I got a kick out of him. I enjoyed his antics. I enjoyed the sexual encounters, especially because they were different. I had never looked at other guys in the locker room or anything like that. I never thought about other guys. But when he turned me on to sex with him, even though the relationship had baggage that doomed it from the beginning, being in bed with him felt like calm after a storm. Which is funny, because poor old Tommy was never one you’d call calm.”

We had eyes only for each other as we ate the delicacies Paul the waiter had brought us. We had to find a way to thank him. Soon, over Linzer Torte and coffee, we returned to our conversation.

“Maybe you should call Darice. I wonder if they know more about what happened.”

“You wouldn’t mind if I called her?”

“No, I don’t mind. I can’t have you by asking you to put blinders on. Darice was important to you, from what you’ve said. You need closure and a relationship with her.” I saw that Paul’s eyes were moist. “You need to find out about that baby.”

“So tell me more about what you’re feeling, Pete. How did we start out, in your eyes? When did you start feeling something?”

“Let’s see... you walked in the door. My eyes dropped out of their sockets. And then we spent time together, and you were you, a nice guy, a good friend. And in case no one has told you, despite what thousands think, you’re somewhat easy on the eyes.”

“Thousands?”

“OK, maybe millions.”

Paul laughed.

“Do you consider yourself gay, Pete?”

“Me? Yeah, I do. I have nothing against women. And I don’t want to put any part of me against a woman. In high school, I fooled around with a lot of guys, but it was just sex, and most of the guys were straight, most likely. A few of them probably will never look at another guy. For them, it was a phase. For me, it’s the way I am. And if we work out, I will consider myself the luckiest man in the world.”

“So you want us to be official?”

“Don’t you?”

“In the room, yes. The idea of being out to the whole world will take some getting used to. I want to explore that with you little by little, until I’m more comfortable. How does that sit with you?”

“It’s more than I expected yesterday when I got up. I thought I’d be regretting not being able to sleep with you for the rest of my life. But I would never have violated your trust by trying something with you and alienating you. Which reminds me, what did you think was going through my mind last night when you came back from the shower and I was lying there?”

“I was thinking that you were handsome and sexy and charming. I was thinking that your hardon might be directed at me. I was wondering if you like topping or bottoming and hoping you like both because I want to do it all with you. What was I thinking? I was thinking, ‘Oh my God, you’re naked. And I like you naked.’”

“Do you really?”

“What do you think we were doing last night?”

“I don’t know about you; I was selling Amway lubricants.”

“I’ll take a couple of cases.”

“Sir, that lubricant is so slippery you that if you start moving your hips, you won’t’ be able to stop for six months.”

“And you see this as a problem?”

“No, not at all.”

Paul the waiter came back, clearing the table and moving the furniture. Then he amazed us.

“We are open until 2 AM. I have arrange that this room is yours. You know that this restaurant was once the residence of the Austro-Hungarian consul to Boston, before World War I. The rooms like this one, private alcoves, are modeled after ones the owner saw when he was a waiter at an old Copley Square restaurant that closed recently, the Café Budapest. If you will move your chairs toward the door, I will just open... this.”

To our astonishment, Paul pulled a hidden handle in the low sofa we were sitting on, and the sound of an electric motor started, as the legs of the sofa swung forward, the seat moved away from the back, and the entire sofa became a bed.

“It is convenient, no?”

“Very.”

“I have stocked the bar with a few things for you. The button on the wall pages me and only me. Think of me in the next hours, and I will enjoy you vicariously.”

He bowed and began to leave the room, now a perfect courtier, perhaps imagining himself at the court of Franz Josef, or of Maria Theresa. Paul winked at me as we watched him approach the door, and before he had closed it, when he could still hear us, Paul said, “So Pete, tell me what you think of red pubic hair.”

We saw the heavy curtains pause momentarily as Paul the waiter drew them down for our privacy. A moment after that, we heard the outer door of our alcove close.

“Red hair?” I asked Paul.

He grinned. “I think our waiter has a thing for Lingam.”

“His name is Liam.”

“I know. But I think Paul has a thing for lingam. And all three of us have a thing for Liam, don’t you think?”

“I think we should think about seducing Liam.”

“Me too. All in favor?”

“Paul’s gone, remember?”

“I’ll cast his vote for him. He asked me about our red-haired friend, remember?”

“Vaguely. I had my mind on you.”

“Good thing you did.”

We looked at the bar. Viennese chocolate, a bottle of Drambuie, a box of condoms (Magnums), a small bottle of Astroglide, and a note. “Call me for hot towels. Paul.”

We giggled. Paul pulled me down onto the sofa and we kissed deeply. I lay back, and he pulled my arms around him, turning so that we were both facing the fire, with Paul sitting in front of me. I rested my chin on his shoulder and nibbled on his ear as we looked into the fire.

“Pete?”

“Hmmm?”

“Do you feel like...”

“Always.”

Paul began to slip his shirt off. He stood up and in three seconds he was naked, his cock standing out in front of him.

I joined him, anxious to pull my clothes off too.

Naked, we leaned back in the same positions. We snuggled, my hardon gradually creeping up his back.

Paul moved toward me and sat on my lap. My cock was now poking him in strategic latitudes.

“Go ahead, Pete.”

“What?”

“Go ahead.”

“Say it.”

“Put it in me.”

“Pass the hot pepper.”

“Stop kidding around. I want you inside me.”

I took the Astroglide and lubed Paul’s ass, lovingly.
I lubed my cock and then stretched a condom over it. The lube within the condom would feel good for me; the lube outside the condom would feel good for Paul.

He moved against me, his ass in constant motion. I aimed and pressed into him. Paul sighed deeply. I stopped moving and asked, “Are you OK?”

“Never better,” he said, holding his breath. “Come on.”

I slid into him steadily, slowly, until I felt his ass-lips undulating against the base of my cock.

“I’m in all the way.”

Paul began to sing, softly: “Heaven, I’m in heaven...” I knew the song, and as I caressed his ass, we sang the last part together, “When we’re out together dancing cheek to cheek.”

We moved in time to the music we were singing, dancing in the sheets that Paul the waiter had put on the double bed that had appeared so magically. We ground our bodies together. I didn’t want to start thrusting my cock into Paul; I wanted him to ride me at his own pace.

When he was wide open, and I felt his ass and his back relaxed against me, I placed my arms around Paul, resting my left hand on his right nipple and my right hand on his left nipple. I nuzzled his ear. Paul seemed to be dozing against me, so peacefully.

“You OK, Paul?”

“This IS Heaven, Pete. I’ve never been more comfortable, never felt so completely safe.”

“Sometimes safety is an illusion.”

“What do you mean?” Paul said, dreamily, as his ass moved gently around my hard cock.

“Just that I swore revenge on you when you kept playing with my cock after I came last night.”

“Did you, Pete? Really?”

“Really,” I said, moving my hips a little more firmly.

“Mmmm... that’s good.” Paul said.

Within five minutes, we were making love gently, moving toward a climax. We were so close to cumming that it seemed we were sliding down a slippery hillside together.

“Yes, revenge,” I said, holding back the spasms that I was starting to feel.

“How?” Paul asked, and he breathed so heavily that I knew he was on the edge.

“Like this,” I said.

And my hands moved down to Paul’s abdomen. For a split second before I did anything, he knew what was about to happen.

As we slipped into the throes of orgasm, I began to tickle Paul. He began to giggle nervously, frantically, tearing at my hands, but I had the advantage of angle. He began to laugh, hard, full, belly laughs, without pausing, gasping for breath. But he was also gasping for breath because he was beginning to cum.

Paul’s insides danced around my hardon. His giggling made his inner muscles do every fast dance, every slow dance, and every combination you could imagine around my cock. I had made sure that my hardon was pressing into his prostate before I made my move, so every jab of my cock was pushing him further into uncontrollable orgasm, just as he was losing control from my tickling him.

“Please, please, please, please, please, please, please,” Paul chanted. “Please.” Thwat... a huge dollop of Paul’s sperm shot forward and hit the fireplace screen. The screen was hot from the fire, and his sperm sizzled there.

“Please,” Paul begged. Thwat. Another huge shot of sperm shot up in the air and came down on Paul’s face.

“Please,” Paul sang, his thighs and his arms moving out and around, and another big surge of cum oozed forward out of Paul’s cock.

“Bastard,” Paul said, and more cum oozed out. “God damned sonofabitch fucker mother-fucker fucking fucker fuck fuck fuck,” as my cock hit his prostate again.

I held my arms around Paul. I almost forgot that I was cumming in his ass, in that condom Paul the waiter had left. I thought for a split second about gift wrapping it for him.

“Ssshhh,” I soothed Paul, kissing the back of his neck and caressing his face. “Ssshhh.”

Paul relaxed again, leaning back against me.

“Thank you,” a tiny voice said from within my tall Paul.

“Ssshhh,” I breathed into Paul’s hear. Rest. Rest your head on me. Love me.”

“I do, you bastard.”

So, with my cock still within his ass, with his ass muscles continuing to twitch with aftershocks, we began to fall asleep.

“Paul?”

“Yes?”

“I like the idea of red pubic hair.”

“Good.”

Tenting Tonight, chapter 6

We remained plugged together as we dozed, savoring the pleasure we had in each other. We were completely relaxed, completely abandoned.

I knew, of course, that Paul would take revenge. I don’t mean bad revenge. Our competitiveness was part of our relationship, as was the constant banter, kidding each other. I love that kind of relationship. I value it much more than what I’ve seen of couples who become lovey-dovey in each other’s presence, proclaiming their undying love for everyone to hear, while one or both of them has a regular date to suck guys off at the gym, half a dozen a night; or some part of their anatomy, depending upon fantasy, is providing cum target practice for their church organist, or for a team of landscapers, or for the Seven Dwarves. These things do happen!

But I wondered what he would do to take sweet revenge. Because I knew he would. This gave a titillating edge to our time together. But right now, with Paul leaning back against me, with his nude body touching mine, with my minimally erect cock still within him, with his ass kneading me ever so slightly, this was a moment I never wanted to end. We’d been partners for... what? two days of explosive lust, preceded by a matter of weeks as roommates, and I could easily see settling down with Paul.

There was one aspect of Paul’s body that I really enjoyed. He was tall and lithe, with a natural six pack that he didn’t have to work to maintain. Me, I found that my high school lean and mean body needed attention and work if cafeteria food and a sedentary lifestyle (if you studied, and I did, and so did Paul) could begin to take their toll. Paul was much taller than I, and I was loving the odd meeting of our bodies. Right now, for instance, I was seated beneath Paul, still buried within him, but his body was draped over me, and I could rest my chin on his shoulder, or I could reach around and play with his nipples, or sniff his armpits. I don’t know if he had pheromones that turned me on or if it was just he that turned me on, but the slightest hint of Paul’s natural scent in the air was like a cup of coffee... I was hard and ready for action!

I also anticipated all the positions we’d find to fuck in. Thinking about Paul on his belly, giving me free reign over his ass, made me crazy. Thinking about rimming him, because what excited me most of all was my ability to give this man pleasure - I loved that he was turned on by me! Thinking about ways to play with his hardon, with my mouth, with my hands, with my ass - that would come, pun intended - with my nipples. Yes, I thought about Paul’s hardon rubbing my nipples. But then, I thought about what his hard cock would feel like against my face, against my nose, rubbing on my forehead, the warm, soft flesh against my closed eyes. Each individual image excited me.

I heard a soft knock at the door, very quiet, and the door opened an inch or two. The curtain still hung between us. Paul the waiter’s voice quietly told me that it was almost 2, when the restaurant would close, and there were things he needed to do.

“May I come in?”

An innocent question. The following thoughts ran through my mind in the split second before I replied: We’re naked, lying stretched out, though sitting up, on the bed he had provided. We had both picked up on his attraction to Liam, and to us. He was older, but that didn’t matter to us. He was handsome, but there was something more about him. Some guys are attractive only because they’re handsome, or well built, but they lose your interest the moment they speak. Pretty airheads were never my type. OK, OK. They’re good for a few things, in a pinch, like if they’re voracious bottoms, or they love hoovering you. Or the lack of IQ is inversely proportionate to cock length - mind you, if that were really true, I’ve met some guys whose cocks should be in lunar orbit while they’re sitting at the desk next to mine! But were we really going to make it with Paul the waiter? Certainly he was a good guy to know, but I didn’t think we were buying him if we decided to sleep with him. On the other hand, he was clearly interested, and neither of us had anything to pretend; he already knew we were gay and had sex together.

“Sirs? May I come in?”

“Come in, Paul,” I said.

Paul entered, and his eyebrows raised as he saw our position. The regular table candles had all burned out, and the fire was much lower, but he had taken the effort to place a few long-burning candles around the room, as well as a few discreetly placed, low-wattage bulbs, so that we were now bathed in a soft, dim light. Paul spoke to me as naturally as if it were entirely ordinary to be speaking to two young men who were joined, as we were.

“I trust you enjoyed your evening?”

“You cannot imagine.”

“I can. This bed was installed for the owner and me, and I have used it myself.”

“You are an interesting man and we look forward to your friendship.”

“The pleasure is mine. And yours, from the looks of things.”

“What do you think of my Paul, here? Look at his body. Isn’t he beautiful? His cock is dangling now, but when he is erect, it curves upward. Look at these nipples the size of half-dollars!”

“You do not mind sharing him with me in this way, with my eyes?”

“We both like that you find us attractive, and when the time is right, we hope to show you how much.”

Paul was beginning to stir. He ground his hips a bit, clamped his ass, and when I looked down, I could just manage to see that his cock was beginning to bob upward as he came closer to awakening. Paul the waiter could see every detail. We smiled at each other as my Paul became fully hard.

“May I clear the table?” the waiter said.

“Of course,” I replied. I felt my Paul turn his head so that his face was against mine.

“Wha?”

“Paul is here.”

“I know I’m here,” he said sleepily. “And you’re still inside me. Feels wonderful. Don’t pull it out. Come back to sleep.”

“Paul the waiter is here.”

“Paul the... Oh shit!”

“Easy, Paul. He has to clear the table. I invited him in. He’s been admiring your naked body and your hardon.”

My Paul stretched his muscles and focused on the waiter.

“You like my hardon?”

“Very much, sir.”

“Do you want to...”

“Not tonight, sir. I see that tonight is a special time for you and Peter. I do not wish to intrude. But I am not embarrassed to say that if it becomes appropriate in the future, I would be honored to share pleasure with either or both of you. Or your red-haired friend of last night.”

“We can’t speak for Liam, but we look forward to getting to know you and your body. But we’ll bring Liam back here, once we’ve reached him. Last night was the only time we’ve met him.”

“That surprises me. You seemed so right as a threesome that I wondered if you were all three lovers.”

“We’re roommates. The last 24 hours have been a wonderful change to our relationship as well. We had never slept together until then.”

“In that case, I am even happier if this salon brought you joy.”

My Paul stood up. He was a head taller than the waiter, and his hardon jutted out impressively. I was sorry not to feel him around my own hardon, which felt cold, suddenly. My Paul put his arms around Paul the waiter and kissed his cheek.

“You are a good man and a friend. We will call you and find a time to get together. One day, soon, we will hope to share pleasure with you too.”

I could see that Paul the waiter was slightly nonplussed by our open nakedness. He swallowed nervously, but his eyes moved feverishly from body to body.

“Paul, why so nervous” I asked the waiter.

“In my work, I have trained myself to be deferential. The owner and I imagined a special atmosphere for Lindoro’s, and a large part of the responsibility for maintaining it is mine. I am not just the head waiter, when called upon. I am the maitre d’hôtel. I run the operation; my friend the owner provides the operating capital and runs the business aspects.

“We wanted to recreate the intimacy that he knew at the Café Budapest. The owners, a Hungarian couple who barely survived the Nazi terror, befriended him. He did some legal work for them, and they invited him to dine at their café. It was her business; her husband was a physician, I think. In fact, they were both physicians in Europe, after the way, but when they came here, she started the Cafe. When they entertained, it was as a couple, with a grand air of elegance, as if they were courtiers at the court in Vienna or Budapest. Their story ended tragically, you know.”

“No, we don’t.”

“They grew old, the café was not quite what it had been. New money had no respect for old traditions. They lost money, eventually. They had to close the café. Within a matter of months, they were found dead in their apartment. Perhaps suicide. Perhaps murder-suicide. I did not know them, but I’m sure from my friend’s reaction that they did not deserve such a fate.”

This was the most we had heard Paul the waiter speak, and he seemed even more intriguing. Neither of us was self-conscious about being nude in front of him. He was not leering at us; he was enjoying us, and we were enjoying being enjoyed. We had both lost our erections during his tale, but it would taken no more than a caress or a lick to regain them.

“Do you need us to clear out?” Paul asked the waiter.

“It is late now. You would have to take a taxi home. The T stops running at 1. I have a room upstairs where I sleep sometimes. Come with me, one of you. Everyone else has gone home, you do not need to bother to dress, unless you are cold. I’ll show you where you can shower. There is a steam room as well, and a sauna. My friend has spared no expense.”

“Does he live here?”

“When he is in Boston, yes. He considers this his home. But he other homes in other cities, and others like me, friends who are former lovers, whom he has picked up from the gutter and made into gentlemen.”

“The gutter? I thought you said you were a student, an English major.”

“I was. But I met him first because he was my client.”

“Your client?”

“My family was in New Bedford, where there are many Portuguese families, including Cape Verde families. I knew that I had to get out of there. I was discovering myself. I ran away to Boston. I had no high school diploma, no prospects. I had a pleasant face...”

“A handsome face.”

“I know my own worth. I had a pleasant face, a fit body, and I was interested in other boys, in men. I fell in with others like me. We would go to Sporter’s one night, to the Napoleon another, or even to Jacques. Queer bars come and go. We would meet men and exchange love for money.”

“You? You were a hustler?”

“Precisely. It was not what I intended to do with my life, but it got me out of New Bedford permanently. My family and I have nothing to say to one another, except for my mother and my grandfather, her father. He surprised me more than anyone in the world. He was 83 when he came to visit me in Boston. He did not speak English well, and he rarely traveled more than a mile or two, but he took the bus to get to Boston, and he found me. I was embarrassed for him to see me and know what I was doing, but he slapped me across the face and told me I should not be embarrassed!”

“He slapped you?”

“Not as you think. He shocked me by slapping me to quiet me. And then he told me that I should stand up and look the world in the eye:

“‘We are poor people. Poor people and rich people don’t mix. When they do, there are difficulties and opportunities. You wanted a different life. So did I, 60 years ago. I made the same journey you have made. I left the boat in New Bedford behind and came to Boston. I had only my fishing skills and my body. I used my body to earn money so I could afford to marry your grandmother. Your mother was already on the way. You look at me now and see an old man. I was not always old. I was as handsome as you are, and you are the sunshine in my life and have been since the day you were born. I imagined that I could find women who would want me, and there were a few. But there were more men, and I didn’t hesitate. How could I? Your grandmother was waiting, and your mother was growing within her. Besides, in this city, there are thousands of college and university students. A continually renewed flow of young people, young bodies, young minds. The homosexual world worships the young and also preys on them. I was determined it would do neither to me, but I had no guilt for offering myself for sex with men. On long fishing voyages, such as we took in those days, before the Atlantic became a desert, do you think we did not get hard? Do you think that men did not form relationships? Perhaps we did not fuck, for the most part, but we found ways of pleasuring each other. We never referred to this. It was understood that no one ever discussed it. But we were young and full of energy, and our bodies demanded sex.’

“Grandpa, you’re shocking me.”

"’Then be shocked. I enjoyed my months in Boston. So should you. Do you sell your body? I think you must.’”

“I can’t believe you!”

“’Believe. Paolo, you must seize life by the balls. If you feel that life is fucking you over, fuck back. We used to say you should bite Life’s foreskin!’”

“Grandpa, what an image!”

“’I had to come here to tell you. Never be ashamed. I also think, Paolo, that you desire men. So be it. Do you think you bring less sunshine to my life because you like to make love with men? Never think that! Never!’”

“My grandpa kissed me and told me to take him back to the bus station. My grandmother would worry about him. Shortly after that, I met Albert, the owner. He was my client. There was, briefly, a male brothel that catered to the very wealthy.

“The richest did not come to the house, which was on the Fenway. They sent for you to come to them. The house was for less wealthy clients. It was also to mask the fact that a number of our staff were Ivy League students. When the stock market goes down and their tuition or dormitory bill comes due, athletes and young men from all over the country would make a few dollars. One of our staff is now a United States senator, a Republican. When I see him on TV, I think to myself, I should have bitten down when I had your cock in my mouth in front of a small audience in our tiny theater. We called it ‘The Cock’s Perch.’

“Albert was a chemical engineer. His Ph.D. is from MIT. He made a fortune during the space race. His company developed all kinds of materials that made the lunar landing possible. He has a wonderful head for business, and he invested in diverse fields, around the world. I think Fortune Magazine says he is the 34th wealthiest man in the US, at present. He tells me that he is as comfortable as one can be with less than 8 billion dollars in net worth.

“Eight BILLION?” Paul and I blurted out simultaneously.

“More or less,” Paul the waiter replied.

“After the moon landing, which was the same year as Stonewall, Albert began to realize that he was lonely. He had had a few relationships with other students in the 1950s, but sex between men was a hidden world, back then. Very taboo. You could be arrested. Many were.

“Albert wanted to find a man to love, but his wealth and position made that difficult. How would he know if someone loved him for himself rather than his money? Albert is not graced with great social skills. He was what you might call a geek, in his day. He had business associates, but few friends, if any.”

“Is Albert from Boston?”

“Ah, that’s a tale. Albert is from Denmark. His father was Danish; his mother’s family were Jews, refugees from Hitler. His mother and his father were already sweethearts when the Germans occupied Denmark in 1940. The Germans they moved to alienate the Jewish population in Denmark from the rest of the population, but the king of Denmark protested, and this delayed the action against the Jewish population. Albert’s father moved quickly and staged an elaborate ruse that saved Albert’s mother and her family.

“From what Albert says, before the Germans prohibited Jews from riding on trains, his father bought train tickets for the family to go to Norway. This was not a route one would expect refugees to take; Norway was also occupied. They boarded the train, and then a night ferry to Norway, but they never arrived in Norway. Their cabin on the ferry was found open. Their suitcases were all full, and a lunch hamper had been opened, but there was an open bottle of cyanide capsules on the lower berth. Their winter coats were still hanging on the door. When the police inspected the coats, a suicide note was found tacked to the door, beneath the coats.

“Albert says that his father had friends, other Danes, who worked on for the ferry line. They had prepared a packing crate into which the whole family was placed. It did not look large enough to arouse suspicion. There was no connection between the addressee, an antiques merchant who regularly sold and shipped furniture all over the Baltic, and Albert’s father, or between the addressee and any Jews.

“They might easily have been discovered, but they weren’t. The authorities in Norway reported that another Jewish family had committed suicide. That was nothing unusual in those days. The Germans accepted the report that came from their own occupation regime in Norway. Back in Copenhagen, the crate was placed on a truck with other crates. The truck stopped in a service alley behind Albert’s house. The antiques merchant lived in a large mansion that opened onto that alley as well. In two minutes, the crate was opened, the family lay down on a pallet and was covered with a tarpaulin. A French antique table was placed in the crate, which was sealed carefully to appear untouched since it had left Norway. The family waited, silently, under their tarp, and when Albert’s father came down with a trash barrel, he gave a signal and they entered his home. They lived in the basement there until the German occupation ended. Albert was born there.

“Albert has an unusual distinction, if you can call it that. He was brought up Jewish, but his mother did not want him to be circumcised. In Nazi times, cut men could be arrested as Jews. So Albert wasn’t circumcised.

“Albert’s family came to America after the war ended. They lived near Philadelphia, where Albert’s father had distant relatives. Albert’s father died in the 1950s. Albert says his father had developed a heart condition during the war, and that he never regained his full strength later. Albert’s mother and grandparents lived quietly, comfortably, and Albert earned a scholarship to MIT.

“Albert says he went out with Jewish girls, but he found it difficult to create relationships. He tried, but something always stood in his way. It was not assumed that boyfriends and girlfriends in those days would have sex quite so quickly and openly as today, but Albert says that he always feared that if a relationship turned serious, he would have to explain why he was uncut, but he did not want to be circumcised.

“At MIT, as a speaker of Danish, Albert was placed with a Danish exchange student his sophomore year, and they eventually had an affair. Albert said he never expected it, and probably his roommate didn’t either, but they had been drinking and wound up showering together, and they played around. And continued to. The roommate went back to Denmark after the year was up, but Albert says he knew by then that he was attracted to young, uncut men. He says that because of the circumstances in which he grew up, he find something safe about being with an uncut man. He doesn’t want to over think it, because with his family history, too much sadness could result.”

“Is that what attracted Albert to you, Paul?”

Paul the waiter (it was hard to call him that now) smiled. “Perhaps, perhaps not. Albert did not know that I was uncut when we met. Our relationship did not begin as a sexual one. I said he was a client, but that is not the whole story. But it is late now. Perhaps we can discuss Albert’s story the next time I see you. I will see you soon, I hope?”

“Count on it.”

“Will one of you come so I can show you the facilities on this floor? Then I will go to bed and dream of what you are doing in this room.”

I looked at my Paul. “You could join us,” I said, looking into my Paul’s eyes. He nodded without breaking eye contact with me.

“Soon,” Paul the waiter said, “but not tonight. Tonight is for you. He walked over to the bar and poured glasses of a golden-colored wine. “This is a dessert wine.”

“Tokay. Five puttonyos, or seven?” my Paul asked.

“Five.” Paul the waiter smiled. “You are good.” He held his glass up. “To new loves.”

We held ours up. “To new friends,” I said.

“To new and future lovers,” my Paul said.

Without a stitch of clothing on, his handsome body on full display, Paul accompanied the other Paul on a tour.

In five minutes, he was back. I was getting dressed.

“Take that off. We have to shower here.”

“Why the urgency?”

“This place is amazing. I’ve never seen a bathroom like this. The steamroom is great. The sauna too. There’s also a small plunging tub for cold water in between the sauna and the steam room. And we’re the only ones here.

“Paul is here.”

“Yes, but he’s upstairs. He says ‘Good night.’”

I slipped my underwear back off. “First one there gets to top,” I said. Then I walked slowly, very slowly behind Paul, seeing only his tight, muscular ass. I was looking forward to Paul’s cock.
