Chapter 513 – Erin Calls Josh With A Problem and Josh Explains Dave to Forest
As Jake, Blake and I were waking up Tuesday morning, I was still angry that someone burned down one of Kyle’s abandoned apartment buildings. That weighed on my mind, as well as the realization that I had to meet with Dave tonight and, well, have sex with the boy. As I was stuck somewhere between reality and dreamworld, I wondered what he’d be like. Would he be passionate? Would he be uncomfortable, and anxious? Would he be funny and just make us both comfortable, like say maybe Dustin? I wasn’t sure what to expect, other than I thought it might be a little awkward. I know I certainly felt like it would be. I decided just to be as warm as I could, and see what happened. What if Dave was turned off by our attempt at passion? Would that scare him away from trying it with Caleb, Chase and/or Dustin? Surely he had a much closer relationship to them than he did to me. For some reason, he felt like I was a connection to the love of his life, having pleased his lover. Maybe he wanted sex with me to see if I was any competition for him with Forest. That couldn’t be it, because Dave knew how close Jake and I were. All the guys knew. Maybe I was the connection between him and Forest. I decided not to overthink it, and just see what happened. Even strange sex was still decent. After all, sex was sex and Dave had a hot body for sure. It couldn’t be that bad, I had to think.
I felt a tickling sensation on my balls. Blake was trying to see if I was awake, apparently gently running his fingers over my balls, then finding their way up my morning wood to see if I had any precum leaking from my dick head. “Morning to you too,” I said, sleepily, as I rolled over to put my arms around him. He smiled, then I gave him a quick kiss on the lips. “Tickle Jake’s balls too, Blake. He needs waking up also,” I teased. Blake gently fondled Jake’s balls.
“Shit, you guys did enough damage to me last night. You want more?” he asked, somewhat concerned. Blake and I chuckled.
“It’s so wonderful sleeping with you guys,” Blake said. I just feel so loved and happy when that happens.” I gave him another quick kiss on the lips. I told him he was loved, and we loved it when he was with us in our bed. I got a big hug for that one. He felt good in my arms, like he really belonged with Jake and me. Now, if Tim could just get his shit together, maybe then Blake could have his life back the way it was. Something told me it would never be the same with Tim again. I didn’t know why, but I had a gut feeling Tim, as a close friend and lover to Blake, was history now, not to be repeated. For that I felt sorry, as I loved Tim as much as I loved Blake at one time. Now, I just didn’t know Tim anymore. I decided we needed to get up, as my mind was going in too many directions at the moment, and I just wanted to concentrate on today and getting through that first. We needed to hear from Kyle to find out what he found out about the fire.
I got my ass out of bed, pulling Blake up to his feet with me. Our morning wood did battle with one another as we hugged. It was kind of fun pushing boners against one another without the intention of breeding, just having some fun. We pulled Jake up also, although he protested, he thought he had a few more minutes of uninterrupted rest. I gave his morning wood a big kiss, making him shake his head. “You guys were so bad last night. But, I have to admit, it was kind of fun. Such language though. Not sure where that came from. Kind of kinky and kind of dirty, but fun,” he managed to say, as we headed for the pisser to drain our dicks. Zach and Brady were just getting out of the shower as we entered the bathroom.
“You guys get a little crazy last night?” Zach asked, with a big smile. We smiled back at him. “Thought we were going to have to rescue Jake, from the way it sounded in there. Must have been fun,” Zach continued. I assured him Jake was not hurt in anyway, but he may have been abused somewhat sexually. Zach and Brady laughed, telling us we were crazy, and Blake seemed to be getting that way also, as a result of hanging around us. I reminded Zach that we jumped off the diving board at our high school one time with my dick up his ass, and how it damn near ripped our balls off of us. “Okay, yes that was crazy too. Not going to ever do that again. Damn, and we were sober at the time. What the hell did we think we were doing?” he asked. Brady gave him strange looks.
“Was that your idea or Josh’s?” Brady asked. Zach shrugged his shoulders.
“I guess it was kind of both of ours. We were so excited with one another having just met and having had a few rounds of some passionate sex, we just got a little crazy, I guess,” Zach replied.
“Funny how that happens around here with certain guys,” Brady replied, looking at me. He had a point. I tried to look innocent, but that didn’t play too far.
Rod had all kinds of questions about the fire when we arrived in Marketing lab. Mary Ann was half crazy, as she had seen Kyle on the special report last night, with Blake and me in the background. She immediately hugged me tightly, saying thank God, I was okay. Then she hugged Blake also, telling us, she was so concerned. I got another hug even.
“Damn, I should have gone with you guys last night. I just knew I should,” Rod stated, probably due to the fact Blake and I both got hugs from Mary Ann and he didn’t. Mary Ann was almost beside herself concerned with what happened.
“Did you find out anything as to who did this horrible thing?” she asked, as if it were a life-or-death situation
“Nothing yet. We think we know who did it, and why, but proving it is a different matter, best left up to the authorities,” I told them. Rod agreed, but said it would be nice if we could just grab the assholes, and beat them senseless. I told them that was my thoughts exactly, as nothing ever seemed to happen to assholes like them. Rod asked me who they were. I told him we were pretty sure they were the same two guys that traumatized Cam when he was in junior high school. Rod said they definitely needed to go down for sure. “Some guys grow up and mature, then lead meaningful productive lives. These two were bullies in junior high, then grew up to be bullies in business, and very disrespectful to women also, I might add,” getting Mary Ann’s attention.
“Well then, they definitely need to be taken down,” Mary Ann stated. “Step on their balls until they pop,” she strongly suggested, making us guys kind of cringe at the thought, even though we weren’t sure that would be enough for Simon and Spence.
Kyle did call me after class and before lunch. He said Rogers was infuriated at the thought Weinstein and Seward would stoop that low. According to Kyle, Hal was so pissed off, he called them and gave them hell, telling them that anyone who would do something like that was the lowest form of life ever. Kyle said Weinstein denied they had anything to do with it, but then apologized for some lacky of theirs, putting up the sign announcing the new University building earlier than it should have been. Kyle said Rogers told Weinstein that was just an excuse for their underhandedness, and told them they’d have to answer for the trespassing charges, and he hoped they paid a hell of a price for that blunder. Kyle said Weinstein tried to smooth things over with Hal, but then Hal let him have it again, telling Weinstein his and Seward’s kids better be reigned in, or they were liable to take down their whole corporation. Weinstein told Hal, he was blowing things way out of proportion. Kyle did say Hal told them he hired Kyle, and they were going to do great things together. He said Weinstein wished him luck with that, rather facetiously, pissing off Hal even more. Kyle said Hal got so worked up giving Weinstein hell, Kyle thought he was going to have a heart attack or a stroke.
“He cares about you, Kyle. Rogers is a class act for sure. He doesn’t want to see what happened to Cam happen to you. To him it’s Cam all over again with what they’re doing to you, and he’s ready to fight this time to keep it from ever happening again. Who could blame him? Just reassure him the authorities are on this, and this time, they just might find something,” I suggested.
“I will, Josh. He took me down to get my new truck after the phone call. He said he just had to do something positive after that, as he was so worked up. I told him I was fine, and things were going to work out, just have patience. I wasn’t sure if he thought I was up to something or not. He did say, if I needed any help, in any way shape or form to bring those assholes down, he was ready to charge. He’ support me however he had to, even if it meant storming their building with guns a blazing,” Kyle chided, only he said Hal was almost serious about that, as according to Hal, it was time for those bastards to pay for their shit. I couldn’t believe, as mild mannered and soft spoken as Hal was, he’d say he was ready to take them on ‘with guns a blazing’. Kyle said he got a kick out that himself.
“So, how are you this morning? You doing okay? No anxiety about anything?” I asked, still concerned.
“Oh, I’m fine. I’m still pissed, and will be until the plan is in action and brings the bastards down. But, you and I, and a few of our best friends, know what’s coming. That’s comforting to me to know justice is coming eventually. It was kind of fun to hear Hal give them hell this morning, as Seward and Weinstein want to stay on everyone’s good side, even though they know they are dirty and did something wrong. My guess is their deviant children did the deed, unbeknown to them, and now they have to do damage control, as the finger is pointed directly at them. I wouldn’t want to be Simon and Spence this morning after their dads get through with them. They’ll certainly get some bad press over this, even though they deny they had anything to do with it, as Conner linked the sign to them in his interview with Live 5 News, the interview Clay conducted. Conner stopped short of accusing them of any wrong doing, other than trespassing to erect a sign on the property, that I just happened to saw down, and then mysteriously, one of my buildings burns down. Only an idiot wouldn’t see the connection there,” Kyle replied. I had to agree, saying this was playing out rather well, and the deck was stacking up against them. I told him to think of this as a week to mount up the bad press for them, then this weekend would be the crown jewel for the demise of Weinstein and Seward, and their two idiot sons.
“Gees, I hope you’re right, Josh. Something has to bring them down. I’m so sick and tired of them doing whatever they feel like doing and getting away with all of it. They think they can do no wrong. It’s frustrating as hell. It just is,” Kyle said, still on a roll.
“Well, come by after I get done from swim practice. We’ll have a beer, then you can go with us to basketball practice if you want after we eat. You need something to take your mind off all the crap that’s going on,” I suggested.
“Not a bad idea. I’ll drop by the police station later, and see if Conner has any clues as to what happened,” Kyle stated. I told him that might be a good idea, keeping the pressure on law enforcement to support Kyle while he still owned the land. Kyle agreed. I told him to hang in there, and we’d talk later. He said he would.
Jordan, Buzz, Nate, Ken and Cam assembled at our regular table for lunch. Jake, Blake and I joined them. “Anyone want to comment on last night?” I asked the group. Nate smiled.
“They’re just digging a deeper hole, is all I have to say,” Nate commented. I smiled. “After this week, there are going to be lawsuits out the ass against Weinstein, Seward and even First National bank, who willfully participated in a fraud scheme with the University. It’s like they can’t help themselves. That sign erected on Kyle’s property was just to send a message this was a done deal. Little do they know, it’s not a deal at all. I can’t believe the arrogance of these guys. Where are their attorneys in all of this? Their counsel should never agree to the agreements that have already been signed, as if this whole land sale was in full force. They have no right to enter into any agreements for the sale they don’t own to other entities. I’m sure to them, it’s just a formality, but you don’t do things on the come, until you have legal tittle to do so. The sheer arrogance involving the bank, Weinstein and Seward, just blows my mind. Apparently, they think they can do anything they want to do. I’ll bet the University wanted a sign on the land to gen up excitement about their new building before they have their press conference on Saturday. That might have been the reason they were trying so hard to get Kyle to leave the property, harassing him and threatening him enough to get him to leave, so they could make it look like they owned the land already and the deal with the University was in full motion. It worked, to a certain extent, however, Kyle still owns the property, to them, a minor detail, that will be corrected on Friday night at midnight. Guys, this is going to be so sweet. I’m all excited,” Nate said, almost giddy.
“Invescor, at our request, has secured my old law firm for all services, not just the handling of the agreement with Invescor. In the event, Kyle needs them to go after the bank, Weinstein and Seward, they’ll have to represent him and Invescor. I know Baxter will enjoy taking a big bite out of them, as he was never a fan of Weinstein and Seward. He always said they were going to need a lot of legal help someday if they kept on doing business the shading way they were. Baxter had no respect for them whatsoever. He’ll get a kick out of going after their asses,” Jordan chimed in.
“I checked with the planning office again this week, and the permit is still good to take down the buildings starting on Saturday of this week. I was in there this morning and a couple of the guys were saying, after last night, they had one less building to take down, since the fire destroyed most of the one that burned. Oh, and they were almost sure Spence and Simon had something to do with it, knowing them the way they did. They didn’t seem to think it was a big deal since they owned the land already, in their minds. I told them I was pretty sure Kyle still owned the property, at the moment anyway. That seemed to puzzle them, although they said that wasn’t their department. I kind of have a feeling they’re up for some heat, since they didn’t check ownership before issuing a permit, unless the bank issued something that made them think the bank had control. If that’s the case, the bank is in deep shit, even more than they already are,” Buzz commented.
“Is there anything else we need to do to keep the plan in action?” I asked.
“Josh, everything is set. The note will be paid off on time, fully funded with wire transfers into the bank by 5:00 Friday afternoon, more like 4:30 for good measure. Then we just let nature take its course. We’re fully prepared to change banks. All the interfaces are in place and have been tested. All we need to do is flip the switch, which we’ll decide the right timing to make the biggest splash in the community,” Jordan assured us.
“Cam, you have any comments on any of this?” I asked our newest member of our clandestine team.
“Just take the bastards down, and down hard. I’m willing to do whatever I can do to help the cause,” Cam pledged. I patted him on the back.
“You of all people, have suffered the worst under these assholes. It’s time they answered for their crimes,” I replied. Cam nodded his head, ‘yes’.
Blake reminded me we had class and had to go. I told the guys we’d see what transpired the rest of the day. I had to believe, they might leave Kyle alone for a few days, after creating a huge explosive news event in town last night. I didn’t think they wanted any more publicity, in light of the fact they were going to be in the spotlight on Saturday, but not for the right reasons. Jordan said you would think so, but we weren’t really dealing with rational people here. He had a point.
Duncan wanted to know how Kyle was, after the disaster last night. I told him he was okay, and it was lucky no one got hurt, it was just an abandoned building, luckily no fireman were injured trying to put out the fire. Duncan agreed.
“I don’t understand why this had to happen,” Duncan stated, peaking my interest. “There was no need to burn down a building, because Kyle tore down a stupid sign that didn’t need to be there until the numbskulls owned the land. They’re getting it soon enough. And the harassing notes, I don’t understand what that was all about,” Duncan stated, somewhat pissed off at the whole situation.
“Seems to me Weinstein and Seward, although I don’t know them that well, were trying to get Kyle to vacate his property early, so they could go ahead and get a faster start on their development project, the University’s new science building,” I commented.
“Possibly, but why the rush? I mean the bank takes over the land on Saturday when they have a press conference to announce the building plans. What’s a few more days?” Duncan asked rhetorically. I shrugged my shoulders.
“Are they trying to exert their control? Isn’t kind of bad press to burn down a building on land you don’t own. That’s trespassing and arson. Erecting the sign was an obvious act of trespassing. Why risk that kind of activity and get bad press?” I asked. Duncan shook his head.
“This whole thing smells, Josh. Makes you wonder what all is involved. I mean Kyle has a new job with a class guy, so he’ll be fine. Just let things fall into place and everyone is good. No need to rush things, and break laws doing it. That’s just bad business. Doesn’t matter if the authorities can’t prove that Weinstein and Seward are involved, in the minds of the public, they almost have to be,” Duncan stated. “I’m sure it wasn’t Weinstein and Seward that did that. It had to be the idiot sons of theirs. They didn’t do their families any favors by doing something like that. There’s probably hell to pay for those two this morning, but the damage to their reputations has already been done, and it can’t be easily undone. I’m sure the press is all over their asses for a statement today, so it’ll be interesting to see how they spin this. You know they’ll make it sound like someone else had to do this, as they’re too reputable to stoop to something like this for sure,” Duncan added.
“Not sure, Duncan, but I don’t ever intend to do any kind of business with them, or help them in any way, if they’re the kind of unscrupulous businessmen they appear to be. None of this had to happen, had they not been so greedy. I hope whoever is behind this, gets exposed, and has to answer for it,” I replied.
“The crazy thing is, Josh, after Saturday, when they take over Kyle’s property, it’ll all be forgotten, as it’s over with then,” Duncan commented.
“I sincerely hope you’re wrong, and Kyle gets some kind of justice for all the hell they’ve put him through. It’s just not fair,” I replied.
“Not fair, but that’s the way it is. The big guys win out, and the little guys lose. Such a shame, but it’s true,” Duncan remarked. I shook my head. I wanted to say something in the worst way, but didn’t want to tip my hand as to what was possibly going to happen on Saturday.
We spent the rest of the class on zoning and how it worked, how to petition for changes, how to protect certain areas of population, land, commercial vs. residential, then historical, a myriad of different zoning situations and types of regulations. It was all very interesting, but hard to keep my mind on because of all the things that were flying through it. We told Duncan we’d see him Thursday. He told us, if we saw Kyle, to tell him how sorry he was for what happened. We told him we’d pass that along to Kyle, not that Kyle cared, as he wasn’t sure about Duncan.
Blake and I walked back to the bar in the cold after class. It was sleeting now, the ice burning your face, like little needles puncturing the skin. I hated winter and the harsh cold of the Midwest. I couldn’t wait to get to Key West for a week of R&R, and a chance to think about happier, more productive things.
Once back at the bar, Thad told me that Erin called, and wanted me to give him a call. I thought it strange that Erin didn’t call me on my cell phone, as he certainly had the number. Thad said he wasn’t sure if I was in class or not, so just to have me call him when I got a minute. As I sat down in the office, I picked up my phone to call him. “Hey sweet cheeks, seems like we just talked. What came up, or did your dick got hard when you talked to me, and you’re missing it in that sweet ass of yours,” I chided.
“Oh, I miss that for sure, Josh. Those were some of the happiest days of my life, when I was assigned to you, and had to sleep with you. My dick still gets hard thinking about those wonderful nights together. But, I must say, Jason has made me extremely happy. I just love him to death,” Erin assured me. I asked him if Jason felt the same way. “I’d say our relationship is pretty much on par with yours and Jake’s if you want a comparison,” Erin replied. I told him that was fantastic. It made my heart warm to hear that. “Hey, I’ve kind of got a little bit of a problem, I need to discuss with you. It involves my family, specifically my brother,” he started off saying.
“What, the dude with the earphones that chases pussy like crazy? He get some girl pregnant or something?” I joked.
“Uh, not exactly. In fact, that would be helpful had he done so. Then I wouldn’t have to deal with him,” Erin replied. I asked him what the problem was. “Well, you know what my father thinks about homosexuals. He keeps pressing me for pictures of some of the girls I’m dating and bedding. Says he needs to get some excitement through me. Gees, he must have been just like Butch, my brother, when he was in college. Not sure what happened in my gene pool. Must have been something on my mother’s side, because it sure wasn’t on my father’s,” Erin exclaimed.
“So, what’s Butch’s problem that haunts you these days?” I asked, rather humorously. He took a deep breath.
“Butch is going off to college next year and, obviously, Dad wants him to go to Uni and become part of our team there. Dad told me recently, which sent a shock wave through my brain, that he thinks what we’re doing is fantastic, and that Butch would make a great addition to the overall team. He asked me to discuss it with you to see if we couldn’t make that happen. You and I both know how pussy crazy Butch is. He’ll shit himself when he finds out we’re all gay, Josh. Not only that, but my parents also. I’m sorry, but I just couldn’t bring myself to tell them yet. Oh, and to top it all off, Butch wants to come down to Fr. Lauderdale and spend Spring Break with Jason and me. Jason and I only have a one-bedroom apartment and a king sized bed we sleep in. Going to be a little weird trying to explain that one to Butch, who’ll be sure to tell the parents. And, we manage the two most popular gay bars in Ft. Lauderdale. I am so fucked, Josh. I just don’t know what to do,” Erin explained.
“Uh, yeh, I’d say you pretty much are, Erin. This isn’t going to be easy. All I can tell you, is the best way to deal with this is head-on. You just need to tell them the truth, and let the chips fall where they may. You are financially independent now, so they can’t hardly do anything to you, as far as cut you off or anything like that. I have to believe, if they love you at all, they’ll learn to accept you for who you are and Jason, as your partner, Erin. I know it’s going to be hard, but what else can you do. There is no hiding who we are anymore. We’re all out up here, and that’s bound to get back to your parents sooner or later. You dad is going to bug you to pieces until you get Butch involved with us, but probably won’t if he knew the truth. I’m sure Butch doesn’t want any part of our lifestyle either. He could bunk with Ethan, but we’d drive him crazy eventually. He couldn’t be bringing babes back to the house to screw for sure. Erin, I don’t know any way to make this any easier, but you really need to level with your parents,” I explained. I heard a deep sigh. “Not only that, but you need to come back up here some weekend, and bring Jason with you, to tell them face to face. That’s not a conversation you want to have over the phone,” I assured him.
“Damn, I was afraid you were going to say that. What if I write them a nice letter, ending it with, it was nice knowing you?” he asked. I chuckled.
“It won’t be that bad. My parents accepted me, Jake and Zach all at the same time, saying they could see how much we loved one another, and as long as we loved one another, that was all that mattered,” I told him.
“Yeh, well your parents are saints and totally understanding. I told you what a women’s man my dad was in college, and how he wondered why I wasn’t the same way. He’s going to freak, I just know it. My brother will flat out disown me, not that I really care, as he and I never were really that close anyway, for obvious reasons. From before he got hair on his dick, he was chasing the female gender wanting to breed them, but not knowing how. As soon as his cock could shoot cum, he was hooked on, and chasing pussy like crazy. That boy is way oversexed, but with the wrong gender, if you ask me. Too bad he wasn’t gay also, then we might have better negotiating power with the parents. The way it is, it’s me against the three of them. I don’t like those odds,” Erin explained.
“How do you think your mother will react?” I asked. Erin paused.
“Ah, I probably have a better shot with her than my father and brother, obviously. We were pretty close growing up. I think she might get over it, once the initial shock wears off. It’s kind of hard to tell, since she’ll have Butch and Dad to combat. I just don’t know, and I wish I didn’t have to find out. This is just driving me crazy, Josh, in case you can’t tell,” Erin explained.
“I know, bud, but you’re going to have to tell them sooner or later. It’s not going to get any easier. If they really love you, they will understand. Better than having Butch show up, and you having to explain it to him. You said he was always annoying to you, so maybe this way he’ll leave you alone finally,” I replied. Erin half-laughed, saying it’d all be worth it if Butch left him alone finally. “Erin, you know we love you, and will always stand by and support you. If you and Jason want to go home some weekend to explain things to your parents, the company will pick up the tab. You guys are doing a great job down there. The profits have been remarkable. You need to do what you need to do, so just figure out when and how and make that happen. We’ll be there to support you,” I offered.
“Josh, you’re the greatest. I love you so much, and miss you terribly, even though I couldn’t be happier with Jason and our life down here. I hope we get to see you at Spring Break sometime, but probably not in the way I’d love to see you, because of all the other guys that will be with you. Sometime you and Jake need to shoot down to spend a weekend with us so we can get reacquainted physically. It’s been way too long. Jason would love that also,” Erin told me. I told him Jake and I’d love that also, but things were getting crazier the more the company grew. Still, I never wanted to lose the passionate love I had for both he and Jason. Erin said that was good to know, as they didn’t either. He said he’d let me know as to what he was going to do about informing his parents of his lifestyle. He warned me I might get a call from his father, if and when he told his parents, as his dad was probably going to want answers from me. I told him that would be fine, as I’d handle it. Erin thanked me over and over, telling me he loved me many times. I did miss him and Jason. Those two had a special place in my heart. I hated the thought of Erin having to explain to his folks he was gay, and managing a couple of gay bars in Ft. Lauderdale. I had a feeling his father, wouldn’t be all that understanding of the situation. Still, Erin was financially independent, and growing net worth by the day, soon to exceed that of his father’s decades of work. Not that it mattered, but surely, his father could see that he was happy and his future secured, which is what most parents want for their children, once they leave the nest.
I filled Thad in on Erin’s predicament. Thad didn’t envy Erin at all, realizing that was a hard conversation to have with parents, one he hadn’t had yet either, and was not looking forward to. I gave him hell for not having that conversation yet. He said he hadn’t had time, but didn’t anticipate any major problems there, as his parents were pretty openminded.
Zach came and got me with my go bag to head to swim practice. He wanted to know if we knew anything more about the fire at Kyle’s. I told him I’d talked to Kyle, and there was nothing new, other than we were sure it was Simon and Spence, but proving it might be difficult, as the two seemed to be extremely careful never to leave any clues. Zach put his arm around my shoulders, and asked me how I was holding up. I looked over at him and smiled.
“I’m fine, Zach. But, thanks for asking. You make me love you more and more each day, and I didn’t think I could love you any more than I already do,” I told him, smiling. He leaned in and kissed me.
“I love to hear that, as you know how much I love you too. Gotta make sure I take care of you, and you stay happy,” he told me. I patted him on his ass.
“You hear anything more from your dad? He ever reach out, and try to talk to you at all?” I asked, somewhat regretting I did, as that was a sore subject with Zach. He sighed.
“No, nothing yet. I guess he’s too into his new wife to think about me these days. I just pray he’ll wake up one day and realize he alienated the only living blood relative he has, his own son, after he and I were alone together for years. He’ll regret this someday. I just hope he realizes it before it’s too late, if you know what I mean. The next move has to come from him, as you and I reached out before, and basically got thrown out of his life at the time, right at Christmas too. What a thrill. Still breaks my heart to think about that,” Zach admitted.
“Zach, you know you have a ton of friends all around you that love you to death. We’re your family now, plus you have my mom and dad as family now also. Don’t forget that,” I assured him. Zach smiled.
“I love your mom and dad so much, Josh. They were real parents to me, them and Gramps. He was so much fun, and so wise also. I loved the time I got to spend with him. I hated to have to make that call to you telling you he’d passed. That broke my heart to have to do that,” Zach admitted. I hugged him sideways.
“I was glad it was you that called me, Zach. I wouldn’t have wanted it any other way. You were the right one to make that call. I couldn’t have handled it with mom or dad. For some reason, I don’t think I could have. The news was terrible enough, and tore me apart, but knowing how much I loved you, it just felt better talking to you,” I confessed. Zach stopped and hugged me tightly.
“We’ve been through a lot together, you and I. I wouldn’t change anything for the world,” he told me. I told him I believed that also, and couldn’t love him more.
Andy, Ethan, Aiden, Zach, Allen, OBB and I all stripped naked to get our trunks on, just as Les joined us, going down the line shaking our dicks comically with his hand. “Afternoon gents. Some nice appendages hanging out there. Would love to see them hard and in my ass. What we need is a swim orgy in the workout area. Josh, you think you could arrange that?” Les chided. I shook my head at him.
“I think what you really want is a Bukkake session, having all of us fuck you, then jizz on your face. That’s what I think you really have in mind,” I replied. He smiled, big time.
“Damn, you read my mind. I could handle that just fine. Let’s make it happen,” he encouraged.
“How about we make swim practice happen, and you deal with your own sexual needs later,” I suggested, getting an ‘amen’ from Ethan of all people. Les seemed disappointed, but said we couldn’t blame him for trying. That was true. Andy thanked me for sparing them, making me laugh.
On the way to our practice pools, Andy told me that Trevor was really shaken up about the fire, and concerned this might be getting out of hand, wondering if we needed security at the property. I told Andy, the destruction wasn’t all that bad, in lieu of the fact, Kyle would be tearing down the buildings anyway. What got us, was that we needed to bring these guys down somehow, and there just didn’t seem to be any evidence to bring them down. Andy said that sucked. I told him Kyle was trying to find out if they found anything investigating the fire, but we hadn’t heard anything so far. Andy said to let him know if we needed him and Trevor to do anything. I thanked him for his help, but told him we mostly had to lay low this week and appear to know nothing about what was going on. Andy said he’d do his best to calm Trevor down, but Trevor was very concerned.
Les got a little feisty in the showers after practice. Andy told him to behave, as not everyone was gay in the showers, and we didn’t want to get in trouble for lewd and lascivious behavior. I don’t think Les knew what that was, but he did keep his hands to himself after that, mostly anyway. Andy said he could tell Les was horny, and he’d probably be bugging him and Trevor for sex again tonight. He said the guy just couldn’t seem to get enough dick in his ass for some reason. We both shook our heads at that. “Do we want to invite him and Brandon to the PF for Spring Break?” Andy asked me. I was somewhat shocked he asked that question.
“Really? You think that’s wise?” I asked, somewhat concerned.
“Well, they’d certainly get enough dick down there which might tame them down some if it was overkill, taking the load off of Trevor and me for a change,” Andy suggested. I had to shake my head, thinking about that one.
“Damn, Andy. I’m almost hesitant to say yes, as I know they’ll go crazy and sit on every dick in the place, even wear Sven out, maybe even Frank, the manager. Whew, are you sure?” I asked again. Andy smiled.
“Think about it, before you say no. I mean they would liven up the place,” Andy admitted. I had to smile, knowing Les and Brandon would certainly do that.
“I thought we depended on Trevor to liven up the place. Does he need competition?” I teased. Andy smiled.
“Normally, I’d say no, but in this case, he might like the help,” Andy replied. I had to chuckle, as I ran my soapy hand all over his dick and balls, then teased his asshole with a finger, making him sigh. “I’ll give you several years to stop that, Josh. Damn, that felt great. I think Trevor and I need some alone time with you and Jake on Spring Break,” he suggested. I smiled,
“I don’t know, Andy. Seems our dance card is filling up fast. Going to have to check for available times and dates,” I chided. Andy shook his head, sticking a finger up my asshole and making me jump. “Well, alright then, we’ll try to fit you in,” I replied, feeling the intense anal stimulation. He smiled at me, then blew me a kiss.
Les was still dicking with Aiden some. I summoned him over for a talk, delighting him to no end. “Les, Andy wanted to know if you and Brandon wanted to hang out with us at our ‘clothes optional’ resort in Key West for Spring Break,” I told him. I think he got a boner right then and there.
“No shit? Who do we have to suck or fuck to make that happen?” he asked, making me laugh.
“Tell you what, if you’ll pay for your transportation, you guys can stay with us for a week of naked hedonistic fun in the sun in Key West on Spring Break,” I offered. Les jumped into my arms in the showers, hugging me profusely, running his hands all over my naked body.
“OMG, Josh. Wait until I tell Brandon. Consider it a done deal. Hell, I don’t care if I have to rob a bank for the airfare, who could ever miss an opportunity like this to be naked with all your guys for a whole week. Fuck me running, or rather fuck me any way you like, just fuck me,” he said all excited.
“Well, you have to play nice and might have to use that big rod of yours to make a few guys happy also. You think you can handle that?” I asked. He was all smiles, and hugged me again. “Easy there. Don’t want anyone to think you and I are having sex in the showers now, do we?” I chided.
“I’d have sex with you outside in the quadrangle, and give an hour’s notice to draw a crowd, if it’d get me to Key West with you guys,” he replied, making us all laugh. I told him to see Allen for air reservations. Les was so excited, he couldn’t hardly control himself. I told him he could thank Andy for inviting him, as it was Andy’s idea. Andy shook his head at me, not wanting to admit he may have created a monster. Les leaped into Andy, giving him sensuous hugs, getting Andy all excited. I just smiled.
Kyle was at the CNB when we returned from swim practice. I asked him if they found anything. “Conner wants me to meet with them tonight and review some things they found. They weren’t sure what was mine, and in the building, or what was foreign and possibly left there by the arsonists. The fire marshal did determine it was arson. He said there were different hot spots where the fires started in the upstairs hallway. Apparently, they dumped accelerant up and down the hallway, then torched it. Conner said the fire marshal said it burned quick and hot, very hot, consuming the whole place in flames in a matter of minutes. They sure did a number on it. Most of the evidence would have been destroyed, but for the fact, it was extremely evident there was accelerant used, and a lot of it. The fire marshal said, if we were looking for fingerprints, we could forget that. They’re trying to identify the accelerant and possibly get a lead on where it originated. He said they could have used as little as a couple of five-gallon gas containers to disperse it. That way they could have slipped in during the dark, probably breaking an outside window in one of the ground floor apartments, opened the door to the interior hallway, climbed the stairs, poured out the product, and then high tailed it out of the place, leaving behind some kind of fuse to ignite the accelerant. The bastards knew what they were doing and how to do it. The fire marshal said we didn’t have any professional arsonists in our midst he was aware of, but it could have been anyone that knew what they were doing. He said, for that matter, they could have looked it up on YouTube and learned how, as much crap is on that website these days, including bomb building. Go figure,” Kyle told us.
“So they don’t have much hope of identifying someone for this, is what you’re saying?” I asked. Kyle shook his head, sadly.
“Don’t think so, but Conner wanted me to look at a few things to see if they were things that would have been there already, or left behind by someone that shouldn’t have been there,” Kyle replied.
“Damn, we need to find a lead somehow, Kyle. They can’t be that smart that they didn’t make a mistake somewhere,” I said, thinking out loud. Kyle agreed.
“So far, they’ve managed to slip through the cracks, Josh. Oh, and I get the feeling, no one is really that intent on solving this case, except for Conner, who seems to be on our side. Everyone is of the opinion, that once I lose control of my property, and the bank takes it over, all this vandalism and harassment goes away. It’s like, why bother, it was all just to get me to get the hell out of there earlier than I had to. At the end of this week, it’s a moot point anyway. Damnit, Josh, they just don’t get it. If it wasn’t for Conner and Neal, no one would spend a minute trying to solve this, thinking in a few more days it was history anyway. Thank goodness, Conner and Neal are your friends, or I doubt they’d care much either,” Kyle informed me.
“All I can say, there are a lot of people that are going to be shocked at the end of this week. My only hope is that they wake up and take action against the injustice you’ve received. We can only hope that people will have the opportunity to witness it in action, if things fall together the way we think they could,” I replied. Kyle hugged me, asking me what would he have, if not for me.
“I would be homeless and jobless, Josh, had it not been for you. You believed in me, and believed I was worth helping. I thank God continually for bringing us together as friends, as I’ve never had better friends in my life, or needed them more, than I do right now in all of you guys. I am so lucky to have you guys on my side. I would have been a basket case by now, had it not been for you,” Kyle said, as he hugged me tightly.
“Kyle, you are a resourceful individual. Good people always land on their feet. You would have also, possibly with Rogers the way you did. Don’t sell yourself short, because you don’t give up, and you wouldn’t have in this case. You’re good. Believe in yourself also. I believe in you, and I know most of us here that know and care about you, believe in you. That’s most of the battle in life right there. You’re are going to do great things in life. I feel it,” I told him, as I continued to hug him.
“I am with you involved,” he replied. I hugged him a little tighter.
“Okay, we’re going to do great things in life, with you holding up your part,” I added, making him smile. I kissed him on the forehead.
“Careful, I was getting a boner, hugging you like that,” Kyle chided.
“Damn, boy. I like the thought of that. We need to break in the other bed in your apartment sometime. Wouldn’t want an opportunity to go to waste,” I joked. He laughed, saying the opportunity was there anytime I could make myself available, as he’d always be available. I patted his ass.
Jake and Blake, joined Kyle and me for dinner. Dylan popped in also, checking to make sure we were going to basketball practice tonight, anxious to see the twins, and whatever kind of sexual attention he could get out of them. I told him we’d go. I was sure Dustin would go also. Blake said he was up for it. Ethan said he’d go also, if Dustin wouldn’t try to molest him. Dustin assured Ethan, he had his eye on Dave tonight, that sexy body of his running up and down the court, looking at his thick pit hair every time Dave lifted his arms to make a shot at the basket, watching the sweat drip off him, the impression of his penis in his nylon shorts, a glimpse of his nipples through the armholes of his jersey.
“Good grief, it’s like you’re stalking the poor guy,” Ethan exclaimed. Dustin smiled.
“Ethan, have you seen the cock on that guy? I mean, what I wouldn’t give to have that cock deep in my ass. That is one premiere dick. That would fill me up and make me feel so fucking hot, tickling my tonsils even. Damn, it almost makes me precum thinking about it,” Dustin replied, laying it on.
“Good grief, Dustin. It’s a guy’s penis, deep in your ass. It’s got to hurt like hell. Seriously?” Ethan questioned. Dustin smiled.
“Oh, Ethan, I’d be willing to have his children, he’s so hot. I mean that guy almost sets me on fire, just watching him. Seeing him naked, makes me want to cum in my briefs. Josh, you have to admit, Dave is one hot dude, and so loveable. I just want him to fuck me forever,” Dustin went on, making me chuckle, along with Blake and Jake. Ethan was not laughing.
“Well, you might as well forget about having sex with him, Dustin, as apparently, he doesn’t play on your team. I think he’s more on my team,” Ethan replied.
“And what team is your team, Ethan? Sometimes I feel like you want to play on both teams, which is fine by me. I’d love to have you even for a short time on our team. Lord knows I’d give almost anything to spend some intimate time with you, as you trip my trigger also. But, you’re off limits, so I look for the next best thing, as guys our age were built to cum, and my balls keep churning out that magnificent cream I have to get rid of. The hotter the guys, the stronger the orgasms, and the more pleasure I have from breeding. I can’t help it I love a nice cock in my ass. It’s the reason I get up every morning, hoping for the chance to get bred each day,” Dustin explained. Ethan shook his head.
“I’m still on the hetero team, so you need to keep looking elsewhere,” Ethan assured Dustin. Dustin shook his head, telling him he was wasting the most virulent years of his life, when he should be having sex and getting his balls drained. “Seems as if Chase and Caleb haven’t got to first base with Dave yet, so I’m thinking he’s looking for a girlfriend,” Ethan added. I smiled, thinking about the fact, in a couple of hours, I was going to be having hot sex with the boy, a situation Dustin would have killed to have. I was feeling a little guilty, but then it was Dave’s wish, not mine.
We grabbed our coats after dinner. I hugged Kyle goodbye. He said he wished he was going with us. I told him I’d call later, and see what he found out. He said, he looked forward to that, and hoped they’d find something. Dustin, Ethan, Blake, Dylan and I piled in my Jeep, and took off for the arena.
We met Dave, Chase and Caleb in the locker room getting dressed, Dave’s long hanging cock in full view at the moment for Dustin to savor. I wasn’t so sure Ethan didn’t enjoy a close look at it also. I was thinking how the hell was I going to get that up my ass later tonight. Still, I acted professional, as I greeted our guys. Dave winked at me, knowing he was going to have me later, I was sure. I did pat him on the back, telling him I wanted to see great things form him tonight. He teased me, telling me I would definitely see some great things from him. I wasn’t sure if he was talking about practice or the proposed sex between the two of us later. I headed out on the practice court to see Tuck and Forest.
I got hugs from Tuck and Forest. “You going to go with us for our Friday night away game, Josh? I’ll let you sleep with Forest again,” he joked.
“Damn, since you put it that way, I almost need to. Wouldn’t want to miss an opportunity like that, unless it was with you,” I replied, making him shake his head and laugh.
“Watch him, Forest. You just never know how horny he might get, and you feeling something in places you don’t want to feel something,” Tuck chided. Forest laughed.
“Oh, he’s loveable, but not dangerous,” Forest replied. Tuck gave him a look, like he wasn’t’ so sure. I winked at Tuck, who shook his head.
“Forest is right. You are loveable, so I guess we have to keep you around for good luck. Should be another easy game, so we’ll let you off the hook again, but when these games start to get tough, we’re going to need you, even if we have to kidnap you to take you with us,” Tuck chided. I shook my head at him.
“There better be some nice benefits involved if you have to kidnap me to get me to go,” I threatened, making Tuck laugh. He told me just hanging with them was the greatest benefits anyone that knew them could ever have. I jokingly told him I had other benefits in mind. He wasn’t so sure.
I sat on the bench with Dylan and Blake. Ethan and Dustin were behind us, Dustin pointing out all the bulges in shorts he saw on team members, especially Dave, who he reminded Ethan of how hot Dave looked in the locker room, naked. Ethan told Dustin he was impossible, and he must have a brain shaped like a dick. Dustin said he loved it, nonetheless.
Tuck was working Caleb, Chase and Dave on a couple of plays, while Forest was monitoring the shooting practice of the rest of the guys. He sought me out to talk to me, a talk I was trying to avoid.
“Josh, did you possibly get a chance to have a talk with Dave this week about what you and I discussed?” he asked me, keeping an eye on what his guys were doing, occasionally shouting things at them. I took a deep breath.
“Yes, I did, actually. It was an interesting discussion, him a little uneasy about you discussing his relationship with you to me,” I replied.
“Oh, shit, I was wondering about that. But, I figured he’d think you’d understand and be able to share things with you, of all people,” Forest replied, as he shouted to one of the players to keep his hands up when he shot. “So, is he willing to go on with his life, and experience other guys he might be attracted to?” Forest asked, still keeping his eyes on his guys, and weaving back and forth, as if he was coaching them.
“Actually, after quite a discussion, he is willing to do what you wanted him to do,” I replied.
“Great, Josh. That’s fantastic. You’re the greatest. So, is he thinking about Caleb and Chase or is there someone else he’s attracted to?” Forest asked, still trying to focus on his shooters and their form.
“Uh, it got a little tricky there, Forest. He has conditions before he’ll move on,” I explained. Forest looked at me seriously for the first time in our conversation.
“What do you mean conditions? If he’s thinking he wants one more goodbye roll in the sack with me, Josh, I can’t do it. I just can’t risk anything like that, no matter how much I love him,” Forest explained. I shook my head.
“That wasn’t his condition, so don’t get all riled up,” I suggested. Forest gave me a curious look, asking me what condition did he have. I took a deep breath.
“He has a certain person in mind he wants to have sex with first, before he has sex with any other guys,” I started to explain. Forest asked me who that could possibly be, and did either one of us know him. “Uh, yes, we both know him,” I replied, getting another look, him begging me to tell him. “He wants to have sex with me first, Forest,” I said, taking him aback. That seemed to stop him dead in his tracks.
“Why would that be, Josh? Why you, of all people? You and Dave aren’t really that close, or are you?” he asked. I shook my head.
“No, we’re not, which is why I was so shocked when he said it had to be me. I thought he’d go for Chase and Caleb, since he hangs with those guys, even Dustin, who he’s gotten to know fairly well,” I explained, getting another stare from Forest. “Forest, he knows that you and I had sex together a couple of times. He sensed it was possible, and flat out asked me. I couldn’t lie to him. I explained to him it happened while he was still at UT, and I never knew he even existed. The second time was when I was trying to cheer you up, not having an inkling the two of you had a relationship. I assured him I was totally ignorant of any of that when you and I messed around,” I explained to Forest’s undivided attention now.
“Then why you?” Forest asked again.
“He says he wants to feel what you felt when the two of us made love. I know it’s crazy, but that’s what he said. He said he could only imagine the passion between the two of us, because he knows what it was like between you two. He says if he’s to move on, he wants to know what the two of us felt sharing intimacy together. It sounds crazy, but that’s what he wants. He’s not willing to move on until he knows what we were like together,” I explained. Forest was turning all this over in his mind, struggling to comprehend what Dave was after.
“Are you going to do it?” Forest asked. I nodded yes.
“I almost have to do it to please both of you. It was your idea, and you wanted me to make it happen. Well, I had the discussion, and he’s willing, but now I have to satisfy his need to know what you and I were like,” I explained. “Unless you want to call this off, which is fine with me,” I offered. He looked stunned, trying to think this through.
“No, if you’re willing to help him, Josh, you need to do it. It’s fair, I guess. He needs some sort of closure, I guess. Having sex with you, he feels is like having sex with me. It really is you know. When we had sex together, I felt the passion I feel with Dave. It’s weird, and remarkable all at the same time. I never thought about anything like this, but I guess it’s only fair that he share with you, what we shared,” Forest said, finally sorting it out in his mind.
“That’s how he explained it, Forest. He said I was the go between you and him. He could experience the passion with you through me, since we shared passion together also. I told him I’d stop, and wouldn’t bother you again if he felt weird about it. He kind of suggested I continue to try to make you happy, since he couldn’t anymore,” I explained. I thought Forest was going to cry. I patted him on the back. “Are you sure you’re okay with this? I sure as hell don’t have to do this. I don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings, just want to help both of you, and I’m willing to do whatever it takes to support both of you, although I’d rather be on the sidelines in this case,” I explained. Forest smiled at me, finally, then patted me on the back.
“Josh, I love you for what you’ve done. I really do. You are the most remarkable friend I’ve ever had in my life. Dave should feel what we felt, to know that passion is there for him, and not just between the two of us. He can love again, and more than one guy. He needs to embrace that. His experience was way too limited, with just me. Hell, I’m sure as hell not the best lover in this world by any means,” Forest confessed. I chuckled.
“Couldn’t prove it by me, Forest. I really felt something between us when we made love. I know that I can trust you and care about you. You’re kind, honest, have a great personality, and you have one hot ass and dick on you. That’s enough to make me happy,” I replied, getting a smile out of him.
“That goes both ways you know, Josh. I just want to hug you so bad right now. You’ve gone way beyond what most friends would do for one another. I could just hug you to pieces, and make love to you over and over,” Forest replied.
“I’ll get back to you on that. It needs to happen and often,” I chided, patting him on the back. Forest blew me a kiss, no one else could see. I went back and sat back down beside Blake.
“You guys have a come to Jesus meeting out there or what?” Dylan asked. I chuckled, telling him something like that.
