Chapter 611 – The Performance and Take Down
I wasn’t sure what to expect tonight with all of us there, but I was damn sure that Parker had to leave us, for the wellbeing of our employees and the reputation of our business. I felt bad that things had escalated out of control to this point. We had to turn this around. The CNB1 was our flagship business, where all this began. We were all so proud of what we had accomplished with little investment and a lot of hard work and sweat that went into the business. True, it had been on autopilot for some time, but Tony and Ollie should have been paying much closer attention to what was going on, or they were in on it also, becoming complacent and giving into Parker’s crazy lifestyle and needs. Things had to change. If nothing else came from the investigation into possible drug sales from the bar or Parker’s using, he was certainly negligent in the way he handled our employees. That, in itself, was grounds for his termination. One way or another, he had to be gone tonight for sure, the way I looked at it. That comforted me, knowing we would take him out and restore some sort of sanity to the management of the business.
Before Clem, Mal, Trevor, Andy, Jake and I headed into the office behind the bar to get dressed for our bartending activities I ducked into the dressing room to grab some extra Navy-blue boxer briefs. Two cuties, naked as all get out and nicely hung, asked me what the fuck I was doing there, telling me to get the fuck out. Derek got in his face, telling the guy he’d better watch himself as I owned the place, and he should be more respectful. The guy apologized immediately. I thought he was going to drop to his knees and suck my cock, he apologized profusely. I shook his hand, and welcomed him to the staff here. Derek and Jarod introduced me to all the other dancers I didn’t know that were new. Dudley came right over and hugged me completely naked, without his guitar in front of him.
“Josh, we’ve missed you so much. Thanks for coming to see us. We need you here desperately,” he told me. I told him I heard and was glad to be here. Lars came naked and hugged me also, telling me how glad he was that I was back.
“Great to see all of you. I hope we get a chance to talk a little later, as I’d love to catch up with all of you. I just needed some underwear for us to wear to tend bar tonight. Didn’t mean to disturb you guys in getting dressed. I look forward to watching you all perform tonight, our great regulars and the new guys also,” I told them.
I didn’t think I was going to get out of there unmolested, they were so happy to see me. It was great seeing them, remembering all the great times we had when we used to come over here. I felt bad we had neglected the place and these great people for so long.
My crew followed me to the office where we shut and locked the door. We proceeded to get naked, Mal not sure what we were doing. “Mal, if you want to help tend bar with us tonight, this is what we wear. If you’re uncomfortable wearing these briefs you have time to leave now, if you want. No one is forcing you to do this, trust me. I wouldn’t think any less of you if you didn’t want to wear briefs and help out tonight. That’s a little over and above for a straight guy,” I told him. Clem smiled.
“I’m here stuck to your ass until the evening is over, the bar is closed and the fallout is handled,” Mal replied, as he stripped down to his baggy boxers.
“Glad to see I have at least one straight guy in my party,” Clem chuckled. Mal and Clem stripped completely down in front of the rest of us gay boys. “Well, what do you think, guys? Is this bod hot enough for you to want to fuck?” Clem chided, as we looked over at his more than hot naked body, well endowed with a nice big meaty cock and big balls. I threw him a pair of boxer briefs, telling him to quickly put those on before one, or all of us, had an orgasm. “I take that as a ‘yes’ then,” he joked. I told him to turn around and spread his ass cheeks. He did it quickly, showing off a beautiful virgin asshole with just the right amount of hair adorning it. “Wait, don’t anyone think of fucking my virgin asshole. That would not be cool,” he said, rather concerned. We all laughed.
“We can dream, can’t we?” Trevor, who had been mostly quiet the entire night, replied. “I could jerk off to that picture and shoot a hell of a load,” Trevor added.
“Thanks for the vote of confidence, Trevor. Just what I needed to hear,” Clem replied.
I forgot, but Mal was standing there naked with his beautiful large uncut cock and large balls, not to mention that beautify sculped lightly haired chest, waiting for me to throw him a pair of briefs to wear. “Oh, fuck, sorry, Mal. Here, put these on,” I said, throwing him a pair of briefs to wear. He took his time putting them on.
“Gees, Mal, you could at least show us your virgin asshole,” Trevor chided, thinking Mal would just shoot him the finger, but Mal turned around, bent over and spread his cheeks exposing another beautiful straight boy virgin asshole. He had more hair on his ass and in his crack than Clem did, enough to make my cock want to stand up and take notice. Jake and I grinned at one another.
“It’s just an ass, guys. Nothing that pretty and certainly not enought to get excited about,” Mal told us, not the least bit modest at all, as if he could care less about being naked around anyone. “I know my dick is different, but it’s what I was born with. You guys got your foreskin hacked off. I think mine looks better, not that I’m impressed with penises anyway,” Mal joked, making us chuckle.
“Speak for yourself, Mal, but your dick is gorgeous,” Trevor replied.
“Why thank you, Trevor,” Mal replied, seemingly grateful for Trevor’s compliment.
“You have a hairy ass, Trevor. Can’t say as I’ve ever seen one that hairy before, not that I look at guys’ asses that much, but we had a lot of hairy asses in the Amish community when I was growing up. Cant’ say I ever saw one that hairy before. There’s certainly a lot to discover about one another when your friends stand around naked with each other,” Mal chided, as he covered up his large junk. I could definitely see why Will loved working out and showering with Mal, getting to hug him naked in the showers also. Damn, it’s a wonder Will didn’t cream all over Mal’s cock and balls hugging him naked like that. I knew I wouldn’t be able to help myself.
“Well, Andy threatens to take a razor to my ass at times, but I like it just the way it is,” Trevor replied to Mal’s comment.
“That’s because you don’t have to fuck it. Talk to someone that has to drive their dick through that mess of hair to get to your hole,” Andy chided. I thought Clem was going to lose it.
“Okay, gees, you guys are merciless. I can’t comprehend all this stuff. TMI. I know I need to learn some stuff, but really? How do you guys keep it all together with all this stuff. OMG. Give me tits and pussy and the world will right itself,” Clem commented, somewhat overwhelmed and shocked by our talk. I patted him on the back.
“You sure you still want to do this?” I asked him, trying to give him an out. He smiled.
“I love a challenge, but this may be more than I bargained for. At least it will be one hell of an experience, I hope I don’t ever have to explain to any of my straight buddies,” Clem replied. All I could say was that he was being a good sport. Clem found a good hiding spot for his service Glock and a couple of clips right beside the door, behind some boxes on a shelf, where he could easily open the door to the office and grab his gun, should the need arise.
“Well, guys. Are we ready to take on the crowd?” I asked, as we adjusted our junk in our boxer briefs. “Okay, let’s go. Watch out for the customers groping and pinching, Clem and Mal. That happens a lot, just so you know and aren’t surprised. Just smile and ask them if it felt good,” I told them. Clem rolled his eyes.
Parker and his bartenders cleared out behind the bar when we emerged from the office. They looked like they weren’t all that sure about leaving us to take care of the bar, but they did anyway. We got a lot of whistles and cheers as we took our places behind the bar. A few dollars flew, welcoming the ‘fresh meat’ to the CNB. I heard several guys tell Parker it was about time he got some fresh meat in here to serve booze, and this group was hot as hell finally. Parker told them only the best for them. I had Mal my left side at the end of the bar and Clem on my right side, then Jake, Andy, and Trevor. I got a lot of guys that remembered Jake, Andy and me from before and welcoming us back, saying it had been too long. There were a lot of guys wanting a date with Mal and Clem. Clem played along well, telling the guys not to embarrass him in front of his boyfriend, referring to Jake, giving Jake a little side hug, even patting Jake on his ass to assure the guys he was intimate with Jake. I could tell Jake wanted to laugh his ass off, but they both played the part well. One of our patrons came by the end of the bar that was open and pulled Mal’s waistband out, putting a $20 bill inside, surprising the hell out of Mal. Mal blew him a kiss. I told Mal, ‘way to go’, telling him he was a natural. He told me not to tell Amy that. I laughed, telling him he was in the closet outside of here. He just laughed.
We started to get busy. Parker told me more guys showed up that used to come on a regular basis because they heard that Jake, Andy and I were here. We did start to see a lot of familiar faces, guys welcoming us back, telling his how much they missed us. Clem was impressed at the following we had. He mentioned his own family wasn’t that excited to see him when he came back to visit. The guys around the bar, were urging us on to do what we used to do to entertain them. Jake grabbed me and kissed me, running his hands down inside the back of my briefs and squeezing my bare buns as he ground his junk into mine. The guys went crazy showering us with dollar bills. I swear Clem and Mal were shocked at the way the crowd reacted. Booze sales soared after that. Later they told me to kiss pretty boy, referring to Clem. To my surprise, Clem grabbed me and kissed me passionately, grinding his junk into mine also. I ran a hand over Clem’s back and down into his briefs, squeezing a bare bun of his. He let me go with a big smile on his face. He nibbled on my ear some as he hugged me, telling me this wasn’t that bad, surprising the hell out of me. I gave him a big grin, letting him know he did great. Jake was making out with Andy, getting showered with dollar bills. Then Trevor made it a three-some getting more dollars thrown at them. We had the whole place going crazy. Clem passed behind me to get a bottle of booze from the shelf, rubbing his junk in the crack of my ass, again making the crowd crazy. Not to be outdone, Mal did the same to me. Damn, if his junk didn’t feel great at the threshold of my ass. I wanted to sit on the hot cock of his in the worst way. The thought was getting me hard, and it was rather noticeable.
“Josh is the first one to get a boner,” the crowd yelled, cheering us on. I kind of stepped up to the bar some, trying to conceal it. “Oh, Andy has one also,” they continued. Jake smiled, having given Andy a boner that was desperately straining to get out of his briefs. Andy smiled with embarrassment.
The first show was about to start. Dudley was about to take the stage and sing a song with his junk tucked neatly inside his guitar. He still looked the same. He had a hot body and was totally naked, with his junk tucked inside his guitar. He was a crowd favorite. Clem and Mal were blown away by his act, saying they couldn’t believe he had his junk inside the guitar. He turned around at the end and bowed backwards, essentially mooning the crowd. He got tremendous cheers and dollars flew. Jarod and Derek were next. I had to admit, they improved tremendously from what they originally started out. Their show was very sensuous and passionate. I was having a hard time keeping my cock flaccid with the passion I saw between the two of them. Their dance was rather strenuous with some lifts included. Towards the end, they were sweaty, with sweat streaming down their tight bodies, making them glisten in the lights. Damn, they were hot. The two licked the sweat off each other’s nipples and even ran their tongues through each other’s hairy armpits. The crowd was going wild.
As much as all eyes were glued on them, I tried to keep an eye on Parker. I noticed Mal and Clem were doing the same thing. Parker was just hanging back towards the door, occasionally coming up to get a drink order. So far, I didn’t see anything abnormal going on with him. I did finally see Tony and Ollie hanging back in the crowd, both having drinks in their hands. I was sure Parker set them up. Later Parker migrated over and started talking to them. They seemed to be engaged in some serious conversation. I could only imagine what they might be saying to one another. I leaned in and asked Mal if he’d met Tony and Ollie. He said he’d never met them before. I told him that was good, as they wouldn’t know who he was then. Mal just smiled, joking he really was in the closet.
I was impressed by some of the new dancers, even the one that told me to get the hell out of the dressing room, wondering what the fuck I was doing in there. He and his partner did a hell of a hot routine together. I sensed they must have had some kind of relationship between them. Derek and Jared were doing a great job with the entertainment. I had to give them kudos for that. I had to believe they could do a decent job of managing the rest of the bar along with Francis for support. I was starting to feel good about the forthcoming management change. Tony and Ollie finally made their way over to the bar to say hello.
“Hey, Josh. Didn’t know you were coming tonight. You should have told us you were coming over here,” Tony told me, then came behind the bar to give Andy, his step brother, a bro hug. “Hey, bro, you should have called,” Tony told Andy. I could tell he was half-looped, either drunk or on something. Ollie came and gave me a bro hug, then Jake and Andy also. Both he and Tony ignored Clem and Mal, not knowing who they were.
“Hey, we just missed the place, reminiscing about all the great times we had staying over and helping out on weekends, so we got a wild hair and flew over to help out tonight. I hadn’t seen Jarod, Derek and Francis for some time, so it was great catching up with them,” I told Tony and Ollie, who were now standing behind the bar with the rest of us.
Tony leaned in to speak to me so I could hear him over all the cheering and shouting going on. “Parker wants to kick Derek and Jarod to the curb, Josh. They’ve gotten a little full of themselves lately and making unreasonable demands, always wanting new things and us to spend money on costumes and wardrobes,” Tony told me.
“Is what they’re asking for justified?” I asked.
“Who the hell knows, but Parker says they’re just being irritants, and he can’t stand their whining anymore. He thinks it’s time for them to go,” Tony told me.
“I thought you and Ollie were watching over the place and helping to make those kinds of decisions,” I replied, showing a sense of disappointment in the statement he just made to me about not knowing if what Derek and Jared were talking about was justified. I caught Tony at a loss.
“Hell, we have too many other things to do than to get involved with the help,” Tony replied.
“Like what? I thought you guys would be ‘us’ over here, and be part of the team, which is what all of us do in this company,” I replied. I started to realize he wasn’t liking the things I was questioning him about.
“Hey, we have enough shit to put up with. Parker deals with the fucking help,” Tony replied, getting a little irritated at me questioning their management and leadership performance.
“Tony, we just need to make sure everyone is treated fairly. It doesn’t sound like that might be happening in this case,” I replied. “Besides, I’m not so sure Parker has been up to snuff lately. The receipts are down and seem to continue to decline, yet the place is full and hopping like crazy. Things look a little suspicious to me. Have you guys been reading the registers and watching to see that everything goes through the registers?” I asked.
“Parker takes care of all that shit, Josh. WTF man, you accusing us of stealing or something. Because if that’s the case, you can have this fucking place and Ollie and I’ll waste our time somewhere we’re appreciated,” Tony replied in no uncertain terms.
“Why the paranoia, Tony? I just made a statement of fact that our business is down according to the accounting, but I don’t see that, as busy as we are tonight,” I told him. He shook his head in disgust. “As the CEO and you, the managers, we owe it to our shareholders to know what we’re doing wrong so we can turn it around and bring the profit back up. I’m going to need an analysis on what’s happening and what went wrong. This has gone on long enough,” I explained, still trying to get something tangible out of our conversation that would lead to a possible reason for the downturn in business receipts, and a solution to turn the business back around to the profitability we once had.
“Fuck it, Josh. Just have your high paid fucking accountants figure it out then let us know once you think you have the answers,” Tony said and started to walk off. I grabbed his arm and stopped him.
“Hey, I’m not blaming you, just asking for your management expertise on what you think is the reason for the downturn in business. We need to fix this, Tony. Ken can’t fix this. You are our management boots on the ground. No one should know better than you what’s going on,” I told him.
“Well for starters, it’s those fucking assholes, Derek and Jarod, our two trouble makers. Why do you like those guys? You fucking them or something?” Tony asked. I shook my head, as if to say, ‘really, that’s the best answer you can come up with?’ Tony was miffed. Tony turned around and looked at Andy. “Andy, you guys get too up your asses over there in Uni, you look down on us second class partners now. You don’t show any interest at all in the place for months, then you show up and tell us how we need to run the place?” Tony practically yelled at Andy. Andy was almost in a state of shock, not knowing how to respond to his step-brother. I did it for him.
“No, we thought we had two of the best suited guys in the world on top of things over here, that didn’t need our attention, because they were so skilled at running the place and making money. But, something has happened to that brilliance, and we’re trying to figure out how to get it back,” I told Tony. Now he was really mad, and stormed off. I let him go this time.
Clem heard the whole conversation. He leaned over so I could hear him. “That went well. Seems as if you struck a nerve,” he said, with a snide smile. I told Clem, I kind of expected that from Tony and Ollie.
Tony and Ollie were deep in conversation with Parker now. I figured they were trying to come up with some kind of excuse to get me off their backs. Parker was ranting and raving, but no one could hear him from all the cheers and hollering going on involving the dancers on stage. Andy started to apologize to me, when Mal pulled me from that conversation, telling Clem and me that Parker, Tony and Ollie stepped out the front door. Clem stepped into the office to retrieve his cell phone to check with the officers outside. He brought his phone back with him, telling me it was time we started staying in constant contact with our outside team.
The first show ended, and we got slammed at the bar. We had requests from everyone for drinks and bar entertainment. Mal and I bumped into each other accidentally, of all things, in our quest to grab bottles and mix drinks. The crowd said we needed to kiss and make up. Mal grabbed me and kissed me passionately, our lips all over each other’s, even some tongue. I popped another boner, it was just too wonderful. Well that got them all started again. Money flew all around us. Mal even reached down and stroked my boner on the outside of my briefs. He had his hand and fingers all over my hard cock, making me even harder. As we were making out like crazy, I reached down and felt his cock, noticing he was fully erect also, shocking the hell out of me, one that he was actually hard, and two, damn he was large at full mast. I began to stroke that big boy, almost getting lost in the action, the two of us stroking one another’s boners. He finally let me go, saying, ‘okay, that was good’, realizing things might be getting a little out of control and escalating quickly. He was smiling and laughing. I pointed down to my boner. He laughed, pointing down to his much larger boner that was straining against the fabric of his briefs. You could see the outline of our engorged penis heads perfectly, straining against the fabric, and there was a little moisture on both our briefs to further embarrass us. We about doubled over laughing at what we’d done. If the truth were known, I loved every second of that experience, and wouldn’t have traded it for the world. Clem patted me on the back, saying that was a fantastic performance, giving both Mal and me a thumbs-up.
I was still recovering from that little bit of excitement, when Clem checked his phone he had on a shelf under the bar, saying two known drug dealers showed up and were talking to Parker, Tony and Ollie outside. One of the dealers flashed Parker a package he had in his pocket, then concealed it quickly. Clem said to be especially watchful now as something might soon go down. They stood outside and talked for several minutes. Meanwhile, we were still frantically filling drink orders and drawing beer. Clem kept an eye on his phone for texts.
We were filling drink orders like crazy when a strange guy came up to the bar? “You guys seen Parker?” he asked. I told him I hadn’t seen in for a while. He shook his head, somewhat irritated. “That fucker has something for me, and I need it,” he replied, somewhat desperate. I asked him what he needed, as maybe I could get it for him. “Fat chance a pretty boy like you could get me what I need,” he replied, then walked off. Clem leaned over to tell me something in my ear.
“He’s looking for drugs, Josh. Parker must be his supplier. I’d know that look anywhere. He needs something and soon, as whatever he’s on is wearing off. Keep an eye on him as he’s not going to be careful when he finally finds Parker, as desperate as he is,” Clem told me. I really didn’t want to get involved in this part. I just wanted to rid ourselves of the cancer that seemed to be growing here without us around.
A few minutes later, another guy showed up and asked Mal where Parker was. Mal told him he had no idea. The guy told him he was always around after the first show and he had something of his he needed to get. Mal told him he had no idea where he was or what the guy needed. The guy told him to never mind, but he needed to find Parker and soon. Mal looked at me and shrugged his shoulders. Clem took note there were other guys asking for Parker. Clem got a quick text that Parker was on his way in. The text said that one of the drug dealers took some packages out of a hoody pouch and handed them to Parker. Parker then handed a couple of packages to Tony and Ollie, then headed inside. We watched as Parker came through the front door. The second show had started and all eyes were on the dancers at this point. All except for several guys that took turns bumping up against Parker and shaking hands with him.
“It’s going down now, guys, Clem said, nearly jumping over the bar and heading to Parker. He grabbed Parker and put his arm behind his back restraining him. Several of the packages fell out of Parker’s hands to the floor. Parker was cussing like a sailor, pissed as hell. “Leave me alone you cock sucker. Who the hell do you think you are? This is my place and you don’t belong here,” Parker screamed at him. A couple of the guys dove for the packages on the ground, but Malachi jumped on top of them holding them to the floor. Seconds later, several uniformed cops came through the door and Parker, and the two guys on the floor, were hauled out into the street. The two guys that had already seen Parker tried to bolt for the door, but Clem grabbed them and subdued them. Another plain clothes cop that was inside, unbeknown to us, jumped in for Mal, saying he had this, but thanked him for grabbing the guys. The cop looked up at Clem.
“Looking pretty hot there, Clem. I was thinking about asking you out on a date,” the cop told him. Clem shook his head at him.
“You asshole, you tell anyone about this, and you’re going to get hurt big time,” Clem told him. The cop just smiled. Clem came back over to us.
All this happened without much commotion as the show went on with most everyone watching the dancers. Only a few guys that were right there where the action took place, saw what was going on and just thought someone was drunk and out of control, and the bouncer was subduing them and throwing them out. The whole thing went off without a hitch. Clem walked back into the office, telling me to follow him along with Malachi. Jake, Trevor and Andy manned the bar covering for us, which wasn’t that bad during the show, thankfully. Clem shut the door behind us.
“Hey, Mal, I can’t thank you enough for the assist. That was great work,” Clem told him.
“Hell, it wasn’t much more than grabbing a steer and taking it to the ground. I used to rodeo some,” Mal told him, as if it wasn’t anything. Clem shook his head chuckling, then began looking for his clothes.
“Okay, I need to get dressed, Josh, then head down to the station to help with processing these punks, Clem said as Mal and I followed him into the office for him to change. Andy, Trevor and Jake held down the bar. “Oh, the guys grabbed your Tony and Ollie also. They weren’t caught dealing but they’ll be charged with possession. They’ll probably get probation and not allowed back in any bars during their probation. If I were you, I’d think about replacing them if they played a role in running this place,” Clem stated. I rolled my eyes.
“Didn’t do much in the way of running the place it seems other than getting into trouble. What about Parker?” I asked. Clem shook his head.
“That fucker is toast, Josh. He’s doing time, so I wouldn’t count on him closing tonight for you or showing up for a few years, not that you’d want him to anyway. He’s going to be someone’s bitch boy in prison for a stint. I just hope he likes living in a confined cell,” Clem chided.
“Well, I have to say this afternoon and evening has been extremely interesting to say the least. Gees, Clem, we were just really starting to get to know one another pretty good there as intimate as we got,” I teased. He looked at me and smiled, shaking his head.
“I have to admit, you’re the first dude I ever kissed or messed around with, Josh. Not that you weren’t a great looking guy and all, and it was very interesting, but I’m a pussy and titties man for sure. Although you did make me pause for a couple of moments and wonder, I have to say. But. I hope I never have to do that again,” Clem replied. We all chuckled. I told him I was disappointed, thinking I was starting to fall in love. “You need help, buddy if you think I could ever turn you on,” he chided. “What the hell about me turns you on?” he asked. I smiled.
“Well, that kiss seemed genuine for sure. It was pretty passionate,” I said, as he took off his bule undies I gave him and stood there naked looking for his baggy white boxer shorts. “And, looking at you naked is enough to give me a boner, Clem. You are one hot looking dude,” I told him. “Like I said, if you ever want to come over to our side, even for a night, let me know,” I teased. He stood there and chuckled, looking gorgeous as hell as he flopped his balls around in his hands, telling me how sweaty they were, which was adding fuel to the fire burning in my groin.
“Hey, you’ll be the first one I look up if that ever happens, and I get batshit crazy and want cock. Oooff,” he said shaking his head. I told him he was a damn good kisser for sure. He laughed again. “You told me to make it authentic. I kissed you like I do my girlfriend, trying to make it look authentic. I guess it worked,” he joked. Clem was finally dressed, got his service Glock and got himself situated to head out. “Great working with you guys. You guys are okay in my book. It was fun, I will say that. Just don’t tell anyone what I had to do. Don’t need that getting around,” he told us.
“I’ll keep it a secret on one condition,” I told him, him giving me a strange look. “You have to kiss me goodbye, as I’ll probably never get the chance to kiss you again, and I want to remember this special moment,” I told him. He looked at me like I was crazy, then held out his arms. He hugged me at first, then kissed me, much like he kissed me before, only for a few short moments, then broke it off.
“There, does that do it for you?” he asked. I pointed to my undies where he could see I had a boner. “Oh, for fuck’s sake, Josh. I’ll never live the fact down that I gave you a boner. I am definitely going to have to fuck my girl tonight for sure, just to know I still have my mancard. Oh, you guys are so much fun. I will say that,” he said then gave me another quick hug. ‘Oh, I may stop by later, or maybe I’ll just call you, Josh. That way I can avoid having to hug and kiss you again. I’ll want to fill you in on what went down during booking and what the actual charges are. You’re perfectly legal to terminate all three guys that worked for you that were involved in this thing. No problems there, as I know you need to make arrangements to operate this place tomorrow. Do what you have to do,” he told me, then patted Mal on the back and headed toward the office door. “Oh, one other thing,” he said, as he picked up the undies he wore tonight, and tossed them at me. “These are for you to have as a souvenir from me. Use them wisely and think about me,” he chided, laughing at his funny. I caught them and put them to my nose, smelling his sweaty man musk smell. “Oh, gross. Oaky, I’m out of here. You guys are definitely crazy,” he said, then bolted for the door. Mal and I chuckled.
Mal and I stood there looking at one another. He came over and hugged me. “You okay, Josh?” he asked. I told him I was fine, but it had been an exciting evening to say the least. Mal chuckled as he held me.
“Thanks for everything you did for us, Mal. I can’t tell you how much we all appreciate you. Thank Amy for letting you hang with us tonight and help out. You really didn’t have to do that. It wasn’t your problem,” I told him.
“Your problems are all of our problems, Josh. We’re all in this together, isn’t that what you tell us?” he replied, as he continued to hug me. I felt so safe in his arms, although he was a head taller than I was. He was so big and strong and damn was he hung. “What next, chief?” he asked. “You have some restructuring to do?” he asked. As I was melting in his arms, I completely lost track of what I had to do now, although I played it over in my mind a million times. “Hey, I want you to know, I have your back with whatever you decide to do. If you need me to step in here to help out, I’ll be more than happy to do so. I’m at your service,” he pledged.
“Oh, I know what I’d like for you to do for me, but that’s not going to happen,” I teased. He chuckled, jokingly saying, ‘never say never’. I didn’t need to hear that. “Mal, would you mind going with me to the dressing room to meet with Jared and Derek to tell them you’ll be stopping in to check on them and give them advice at times. I’ll add something to your compensation package if you’ll kind of oversea the operation here. I don’t need you to live here running the place, as the ranch is far more important, but the boys can do a decent job up to a point, until they get a little more experience. You and Eric can talk, and he can help out with any questions you might have. It might be better if the two of you communicate, since you’re both straight and all,” I explained. Mal chuckled.
“Does that really matter?” he asked. “And, by the way, you compensate me enough. I don’t need anything additional for overseeing this operation. Making me a shareholder is the most wonderful thing you can do for me. I know it’s in place even though we haven’t had the initiation yet, but knowing I’m one is the most wonderful thing you could ever do for me, Josh. I know we’re all going to do great things together, make a lot of money and have a lot of fun in the process,” Mal told me, still hugging me. I told him he better let me go, before I totally fell in love with him. He kissed me on the top of my head, saying he loved me already, although I knew him to mean as a friend he totally cared about.
“Wait, you can’t kiss me like you did earlier, then kiss me on the top of the head,” I told him, then pulled his head to mine and kissed him more passionately skipping the tongue but doing the upper and lower lips, very sensuously. Then my dick got hard, and I had to stop. I could tell he felt that. He chuckled.
“I’m going to have to tell Amy that you kiss better than she does. Damn, you’re a good kisser, Josh. You really are,” he said, as I backed away from him. He knew why I backed away. “So I got you a little excited. Maybe you did that to me too,” he said, making me look down and noticing he had the makings of a boner also. “Guess you just have to love who you feel like you need to love,” he said, trying to joke about it as if it would lessen the embarrassment for both of us.
“I don’t understand you sometimes, Malachi, but I know I love you for sure now. I know Wil loves you also,” I told him, making him chuckle.
“You two are the greatest friends I’ve ever had in my life and probably ever have,” he said. “I don’t get hung up on this sexual shit and who should only do what to who. I just live my life and love whoever I need to love, however I need to love them. It doesn’t bother me to kiss you, hug you, or even rub and feel each other’s boners, Josh. If it feels good, and it’s a moment of intimate sharing between one another, then I’m all for it. For the record, I enjoyed kissing you that way and the intimacy we shared. It was very nice and very special, something more than I’ve ever shared with the exception of Amy. And let’s face it, the two forms of intimacy are totally different,” he said sincerely.
“Oh, Mal, you are something else, and a wonderful friend if there ever was one. Will was so right about you being perfect for us to have for the duration. You’re going to do some great things in this company for sure,” I told him. “But, I am going to make sure you’re appropriately compensated for the extra responsibility you’re taking on,” I assured him. He jokingly told me another kiss like we just shared would be more than adequate compensation. Mal leaned in to kiss me, but I stopped him, telling him I couldn’t take another boner right now, as there was much more we had to do. He chuckled, saying he’d take a raincheck, which I more than agreed to. I patted his brief clad ass as we headed out to the dressing room.
On the way to the dressing room, I was amazed at how comfortable Mal was with male nudity and intimacy, never having been around any of that and having a girlfriend he loved and loved having sex with. Was he possibly bi-sexual? My mind wanted to make me think so, but then my mind wanted me to think every straight guy out there was basically bi-sexual and just needed to be led to bed. That wasn’t the truth, but usually what gay men’s dreams were all about for the most part. It was so easy for a gay man to fall in love with a straight guy, but even though they loved you back with their hearts, they had no comprehension as to what male intimacy was all about. When you tried to show them, they’d generally freak out. I had a feeling the same would be true with Malichi, although I wanted to believe otherwise. I would never do anything to hurt the tremendous appreciation and care I felt for him and he seemed to feel for me and Will. That wouldn’t be fair to him and definitely not to Amy. I decided to stop thinking about anything so crazy as that.
I gave Jake a kiss, telling him to hang in there as Mal and I were going to talk to Derek and Jarod. Jake smiled, saying how crazy it got for a few minutes. He told me he could handle he bar with Trevor and Andy and to go take care of business.
Mal and I made our way to the dressing room, still dressed in our briefs, attracting some groping and fondling along the way. Mal and I got whistles and cheers from some of the guys when we arrived in the dressing room because we were just in our briefs. There were guys still onstage, as the others watched backstage. Mal couldn’t get over how he was admired by the guys. I told him he needed to get used to the fact gay guys were ga ga over him as he was so hot. He told me we were all crazy as he was just another dude with a dick like any other dude. I told him that was not true at all. He was special, and to be revered and admired, and as hot as he was, he’d be lusted after by gay guys. He shook his head, again saying we were all crazy. I grabbed Jared and Derek. They were still in their thongs, which was heating me up a little, as they were definitely hot also, much more so today than they ever used to be, I thought.
“Hey, when you guys get done here, we need to meet upstairs in the apartment and go over your new assignments,” I told them. They looked at me like I had two heads.
“What now, Josh? You’re not going to let that creep Parker fire us, are you? You sending us to work at the ranch now?” Jared asked, very concerned, as was Derek, noting that Mal was with me to talk to them. I shook my head.
“No, to the contrary, you’re being promoted to managing this place. I just fired Parker. Let’s just say he won’t be around for a long time, and he will never work here again. They both simultaneously hugged me. Each of them grabbed my head and kissed me on the lips, hardly able to contain themselves. “I need to know if you guys think you can handle this place,” I told them. They both said they could or die trying. I told them I needed them alive and prosperous. They said they would definitely do what it took to get the job done, but they might need some guidance getting started. “Mal is going to be available and stop by from time to time to help you out with areas you might need some help with,” I told them. They looked at Mal like they wanted to eat him alive.
“Oh, Mal, you’re just what the doctor ordered. We’d love to see you whenever you can be here. In fact, we’d like to see all of you and without your clothes,” they teased. I think Mal blushed.
“Hey, let’s keep this professional. I need you two to grow up and be professional. I know you guys can do this, but keep it serious when it comes to business. Francis is going to help also. We’ll put Francis in charge of the building facilities, ordering booze and beer and supervising the kitchen staff. You guys handle the bartenders, wait staff and entertainment. Between the three of you, I think we can cover it all. Any questions, you have Mal here to ask questions about management. You guys ever think of taking any courses at the community college here?” I asked, telling them that might help them some.
“Josh, we’re both in business school, and have been this whole year. We’re not some high school drop outs. Working with Parker, we knew we needed to better ourselves, as we weren’t moving up in this organization with him in charge. Give us a little bit of credit,” Derek replied. I hugged him.
“I’m so proud of you two. See, that’s what happens when we don’t keep in touch the way we really should. I should have known Parker was not good for you guys a long time ago. That’s my bad,” I told them. They both hugged me.
“You can’t know everything with as much as you have on your plate, Josh. I can’t believe you are able to do all the things you do now, much less have to be involved in the day-to-day management of this place. It’s not possible. But the good thing is you know where our heart’s at, and the rest we can work out somehow,” Jared told me. I gave them another hug.
The show finally ended with all the guys that performed tonight doing a curtain call in their thongs. I noticed some nicely packed thongs on some of the new guys, which impressed the hell out of me. When they all got back to the dressing room and were taking off their thongs and letting their balls and dicks breathe again, it got a little exciting seeing all that new dicks and balls. Jared told me that he and Derek helped audition the new guys anyway, and very professionally, but then Parker would throw his two-cents in. Derek said he was sure the new guys had to fuck Parker to get their jobs. I told them that was illegal, and was never to happen again. They both said they hated that it had happened, and would never allow it on their watch.
I told the guys to gather round as I had something to tell them. First of all, I introduced myself and Mal to all the new guys, after Dudley gave me a hug, telling me he loved me and missed me, making all the guys chuckle, as they all loved Dudley. If Dudley loved me, they thought I had to be okay.
“We’re making some management changes as of tonight, just so you know who’s in charge. Jake, Andy and me, along with a couple of other guys that aren’t here with us tonight, started this bar over a year ago. It was a tired little neighborhood bar that members of the gay community called their own, but it was never really sanctioned as a gay bar. We changed all that, and built it into a thriving enterprise. Jared and Derek were one of our first dancers we hired and have been with us all this time. I trust them and care about them as close friends. Believe it or not, they were pretty straight when they first started out,” I said, getting a lot of laughs.
“Hey, Josh here taught us how to physically love one another so we could be more realistic on stage. We finally felt the strong connection with each other, and fell in love. The rest is history. We owe Josh for helping us out, as we were so awkward on stage at first, we had to bring our girlfriends in to cheer for us, as no one in the place thought any of it was real. It wasn’t real, but it was terribly awkward. I’m ashamed to talk about it. Not anymore,” Jared swore, getting an applause, as the two of them had one of the sexiest skits in the show. Jarod kissed Derek. We all applauded.
“So Derek and Jared are taking over the management of the bar as of tonight. Francis is part of that also, although his duties will mostly involve physical facilities and inventory, plus tending bar, and anything else that’s needed. He goes back to day one with us also. Parker is no longer with us. Tony and Ollie are no longer with us either,” I told them, getting some strange looks from some of the guys. “It’s a long story, one that breaks my heart to think any of you were mistreated in any way. That’s not our style and nothing here should ever make you feel uncomfortable. In addition, Malachi here will be overseeing things, but not involved in the day-to-day business, but available for help when needed. He manages our ranching operations here in the City, but he’s a great businessman and a great friend to all of us. We love him, and love having him with us. Any questions?” I asked. One particularly new hot guy stuck up his hand.
“So will you come and fuck us from time to time or have us fuck you?” he asked. I almost choked.
“No, guys. That’s not what we’re all about. No one has to have sex with anyone here to keep their job or for new guys to have a job here. I don’t care who you have sex with, as long as it’s consensual between the two, or hell, even the three or four of you, whatever. Sex is a meaningful act that should be shared between those that care about one another. You don’t have to have sex to keep your job here. That’s a violation of our policy for sure,” I replied.
“Well, if you care about us, would you have sex with us? I mean we never had a boss as hot as you are,” the guy replied. I chuckled.
“Wow, I’m very flattered, but the answer is probably still no, as I’d have to love you first, and most of you I don’t know. Dudley and Lars and of course, Jared, Dereck and Francis have been around since the beginning almost. I hope to get to know you personally over time, but I don’t get a chance to get over here that often. I’m not looking for sex with you guys, even though most of you could certainly make my cock hard. I’m more interested in all of us caring about one another and working together for the good of all of us so we can all prosper. We’re not always going to be young, hot and full of cum. We need to work on our futures also. I want all of you to prosper and have a great future. That’s my quest, and I think it’s a good one,” I told them. I got some applause on that one.
Several of the guys I didn’t know came up and introduced themselves after I finished. They introduced themselves to Mal also. One of them asked how large his cock was. Ma said he had no idea. The guy told him it looked pretty large. Mal said it was just a dick, just like any other dick. The guy told Mal he was mistaken as it certainly filled up his briefs more than anyone else’s. Mal pulled down his briefs and let his cock and balls hang out. All of the guys close to him were impressed as hell. “There, now you can see I have a dick just like any other dick. No mystery here. I hope you’re all satisfied,” Mal stated, eager to end the curiosity.
“Oh, I could be totally satisfied with that big dick up my ass for sure,” one of them said then moved in to touch it. “Fuck, you’re intact too. Those are the best kind to have up your ass,” he said, as he started to reach out to touch it, but Mal quickly pulled up his briefs, disappointing the guy to no end. “Sweetheart, you could make a lot of guys happy with a cock like that. What will it take to get you to fuck me with that?” he asked, pursuing Mal. Mal looked at me, as if to say ‘help’.
“He’s straight, guys. He has a beautiful girlfriend, so that dick has never seen a boy ass and probably never will. Don’t be bugging him for sex now. He’s your new big boss,” I jumped in and said.
“Straight???” the guys asked, totally disappointed. “Nothing that beautiful should be straight?” they commented. Mal just smiled.
I told Jared and Derek to put on some briefs and meet us upstairs in the apartment, and we’d finish our talk. Mal and I headed out to find Andy, Trevor and Jake. Francis was at the bar talking to our three guys. Will had introduced Mal to Francis before he left to move to Uni, telling Francis Mal might be stopping by to check on things. Most of the bar had cleared out by this time. I told Francis to tell the rest of the guys we were closing in ten minutes and give them a free drink card for their next visit since they didn’t get to stay longer. Francis did as I asked. The guys finally got up and left, excited to have free drink cards.
“So, tell us what all happened. I mean we all witnessed the take down of Parker and two of his drug customers, we presumed, but what, if anything, happened to Tony and Ollie?” Andy asked, extremely interested, since Tony was his step-brother.
“Clem is supposed to call or stop by with what happened at booking when they took them all to the station. He told me Parker is definitely going to do some time. They arrested Tony and Ollie for possession, Andy. Clem said they probably wouldn’t do any time, but get probation. They wouldn’t be allowed to be associated with any bars, however,” I told Andy, hoping he wasn’t too upset with the outcome.
“Well, they asked for it, so I guess they get what they get,” Andy replied, although I could tell he was disappointed Tony and Ollie were using drugs. “Wow, are Mom and Dad going to be pissed about this. That is, if they ever find out. I’m sure it will make the papers and someone will let them know,” Andy added. Just then, Clem came back through the door.
“Hey, I’m not getting naked in front of you guys again, so don’t get your hopes up. I just came to thank you again for your help,” he said, half out of breath, “and I could sure use a beer or two,” he said, as he sat down on a bar stool. Jake drew him a beer and sat it in front of him.
“Tough night, huh?” Jake asked him. Clem smiled.
“In a way, but interesting in another. I had my first gay experience, was half-molested by you guys, my partners in this bust, but we got the perps, and all is good,” he said, downing half his beer in one swig. “Sorry. Kind of thirsty after everything you guys put me through,” he chided, making us laugh. I told him it couldn’t be that bad. He laughed. “I will say, you’re a good kisser, Josh. Damn, you even made my dick hard,” he said. “Never in a million years did I think a dude could ever get my dick hard. Fuck, you sure as hell did. That’s going to bother me for some time, I just know it. I may have to have therapy over this one,” Clem chided. We all laughed.
“Well, if you’d like some physical therapy, I’m sure we could do more than just get your dick hard. We could probably give you the most intense orgasm you’ve ever had in your life, Clem,” I offered. He wasn’t sure how to react to that.
“One step at a time. It’s going to take a while to get over the kissing and fondling of another dude. That was just wrong, but yet, I have to admit, it was kind of hot. Give me another beer to wash Josh’s tongue out of my mouth,” Clem chided, making us laugh. I asked him what was to come of the arrests that were made tonight. Clem finally sat his beer down to tell us what happened. “They’ll be arraigned tomorrow morning. Tony and Ollie will be released on bail, a small amount because their only role in this was purchasing illegal substances, however they allowed Parker to sell drugs at the business they were responsible for. In this case they got ecstasy. Now, if they got a commission from Parker for letting them sell drugs on the property, then that’s aiding and abetting. That might get them some jail time. Parker will be charged with selling narcotics and is looking at some stiff jail time. He’ll also have a large bail amount, so I don’t expect him to be going anywhere soon. The two dealers that dropped off the drugs are being given a deal if they provide information on who they work with and buy from. We’ll see if that happens. If they don’t, they’ll be in jail for a long time, as they had Heroin on them, along with Fentanyl. They were like a regular pharmacy. Don’t know how long this has been going on, but it ended tonight. Parker was cussing you guys for showing up today, blaming you guys for him getting caught. I told him it was his own damn fault and no one else’s,” Clem stated. We all agreed.
“Well, it’s been a real thrill working with you guys in more ways than one, I have to say. I think I definitely need to head over to my girlfriend’s house and retrieve my mancard. Gotta dip my dick in some pussy just to thwart the memory of my hand all over a dude’s dick and ass, not to mention a dude’s tongue in my mouth. I will say, you really can kiss well, Josh. Oh well, that’s over and a distant memory at this point,” Clem stated, as he got up to leave.
“Never say never, Clem. You just might wake up one day and remember you liked it,” I chided. He shook his head, then shivered.
“Not a chance, Josh. Although, I think we could be good friends. That relationship I could handle,” he said, then held out his hands to give me a hug.
“Well, at least you can hug now instead of just shake hands,” I told him, making him shake his head again.
“Got to get to my girlfriends and quick before I lose all my manhood,” he chided. I patted him on this back and sent him on his way.
“Francis, go see if all the dancers have gone by now. Then lock up and meet us upstairs in the apartment, and we’ll talk about your new exciting future,” I told him. He smiled, big time, then headed back to the dressing room to check on the dancers. “Mal, if you want to go see Amy and get a little time left with her tonight, I think we can take it from here. You did a fantastic job tonight, one that I’ll never forget. I think our relationship reached a whole new level tonight, one that I have to say I enjoyed. Go over to Amy’s and forget about all this crap you had to do tonight,” I told him.
“You’re having a meeting with the crew upstairs. That involves me, so I’m staying with you until you’re through,” he replied. I looked at him like he was crazy. “I promised Will and you, I’d stay until the end, and that’s what I’ll do.”
“You going to sleep with Jake and me too?” I asked teasingly.
“If that’s what you need done, then so be it,” he said, but with a smile. I shook my head at him smiling.
“It’s such a shame you’re straight as you are a dream for any gay man, I’m telling you,” I told him. He chuckled. Trevor said he sure as hell second that thought.
“Gay, straight, we’re all guys that care about one another in this company, which is what I love and respect about it. We all work together for the common good of all. You can’t beat that, Josh. I’m all in for you, Jake, Will and everyone in this company. You have my word on that for sure,” he said.
“Well, okay then. Come join us upstairs. At least that gives us more time to stare at that hot, almost naked, body of yours and drool,” I teased, making him laugh. I wasn’t kidding about that at all, but he thought it was funny.
Now it seems I was correct in my assumptions about him. And yes, Tony and Ollie, also. We will see, hopefully in the next chapter. It was good to reconnect with Jarod, Derek and Francis. I think they are going to really be excited about their new responsibilities at the CNB. They certainly deserve all the Josh can do for them.
He gets left at home too much, if you ask me. Sometimes it seems to me Jake is an afterthought. If he is supposed to be Josh's other half he should be just that - the other half, in the story a lot more. Probably didn't really make any sense there. Sorry!
and as tom said, he's still straight because he never met Josh before
