Chapter 868 - D
There was a knock on the door. Zach let in Bryce and Kirk who had come to hang out with us for breakfast. We all got hugs as they stripped to their briefs to join us for breakfast. “I swear almost everyone at the house is still sleeping. Gay Night seems to be pretty hard on the guys,” Bryce commented. I told them I couldn’t imagine, making them laugh. I suggested they had to get their rest so they could play hard this afternoon at the swim party. Bryce said that must be what it was.
“Doesn’t it bother you guys all being naked in front of each other for hours like that?” Kirk asked. We chuckled.
“I guess we’re used to it in sports and around each other so much we don’t seem to notice, other than it’s a fantastic feeling of freedom, unconfined by clothes and just natural. We’re not looking to have sex with anyone, just hanging out,” Jake commented. “You nervous about it?” Jake asked. Kirk looked a little nervous.
“Maybe as I don’t know very many of the guys, only just the ones I’ve met with Bryce and you, Josh. I just wonder if I measure up to the rest of the guys,” he replied. We all chuckled.
“Kirk, you measure up well, buddy. You’re an athlete, number one, which gives you an advantage over say Tink and Edgar. We have a few of the geekish types among us, but that’s okay as we need a combination of everyone in our organization. We all aren’t beautiful chiseled statuesque Greek gods like Bryce here. He’s not only a talented basketball star, but he’s also a hot young male specimen to be lusted after,” I teased as Bryce rolled his eyes, denying any truth to that whatsoever.
“Kirk, I told you it’s like showering with the team after practice and games. We’re all used to being around each other naked in the showers and in the locker rooms. It’s no big deal,” Bryce stated. “You’ll be fine and the nervousness will wear off in mere moments once you get used to it. Just remember, everyone there his naked until dinner time then we all have to wear athletic shorts for dinner. Josh says that’s to keep from getting any pubes in the food, which I have to agree with him is a very good policy,” Bryce explained, as we all chuckled.
“I’d say that’s a good policy also. I guess I’ll be okay, but if I happen to pop a boner, promise me you won’t make fun of me,” Kirk asked. Bryce told him he’d announce it to the whole group so they could all gather round him and tease him. That frightened Kirk. I told Kirk Bryce would do nothing of the sort and reminded him of the badge of honor.
“Did you ever pop a boner in the showers after a game or basketball practice in high school?” Colt asked him. Kirk looked embarrassed. “This ought to be good. Spill, we want to hear about it. Come on, you’re among friends,” Colt added. Bryce looked at him curiously.
“I did, but I was able to grab a towel and hide it fast enough to keep anyone else from seeing me,” Kirk said. Bryce asked him when that was because he was always near him in the showers and had a locker beside him. Again, Kirk looked embarrassed. “Well, it was our freshman year on the junior varsity team and we were all just getting pubes and larger cocks. Bryce was always more mature than the rest of us on the team. He had a damn big cock with full grown balls and most of the rest of us had a maturing smatter of pubes with smaller cocks and balls. Oh fuck, Bryce, you bent over to get the soap, and I could see your big balls between your legs hanging there and your nice ass, then you turned around and your dick looked larger like you had a semi starting or something. Don’t know if it was my imagination or what, but I had to leave immediately as I was so turned on. I went home and jerked off twice just to calm down I was so horned up,” Kirk admitted. Bryce shook his head in amazement.
“No shit. Why didn’t you tell me about that happening as we were best pals in 9th grade?” We used to talk about everything back then, even about our first times we were able to shoot a load?” Bryce asked. I thought Kirk was going to cry.
“Hell, I didn’t know anything about anything back then, Bryce. I didn’t know guys could be attracted to guys at that age. It was just all new and different. I didn’t know anything about being gay, and still don’t know much. I just thought it might be an awkward phase I was going through with our hormones raging. I was just hoping I could get through it without embarrassing myself too much. I had no idea I would fall in love with you and fixate on having sex with you. I still struggled with it even when I wrote that awful stuff in my diary, hoping by writing about it, it would be therapeutic to get it out of my mind. Then when I started dating girls, I wasn’t sure I liked that at all until my horrible stepfather sensed I might be having some problems with my gender preference and told me to start fucking girls, any girl that would let me fuck her, hoping that would break whatever obsession I had for you. Well, we all know that didn’t work, that homosexuality is real and not just a phase in the rights of passage, but honest to goodness real and for those of us that embrace it like all our friends here, can be very wonderful with wonderful caring friends to support guys like me. Honestly, I couldn’t have found a better place to finally be me and not be punished for it like I was at home,” Kirk explained. We all gave him a hug afterwards, even Bryce.
“I’m sorry you had to go through all that hell by yourself, Kirk. If you’d have talked to me about it some, we might have been able to figure it out somehow and spare you the humility and guilt you went through,” Bryce told him.
“Easy to say now, but you could have disowned me as a friend also had I told you. I had no idea who would accept me for who I was becoming or who would hate me for it. Like I said, I just didn’t know. I was exiled to my own private world I couldn’t expose to anyone for fear of losing family and friends,” Kirk replied.
“I might have found it challenging to help you with that, but I wouldn’t have scorned or disowned you as a friend. I couldn’t do that, Kirk. What I was upset about was you abandoning me as a friend, only allowing me into your life at school and basketball events. That hurt, and hurt bad. I know all the reasons for it now, and I hate what you had to go through, but I’m still not over it. I’ve seen what true friends are like living in the midst of these great guys here, and those are the friends I want for life, not someone that turns the friendship on and off when they please or think they need to,” Bryce replied.
“Bryce, I can’t say I’m sorry enough because alienating you was the last thing I ever intended to do. I hate that it happened. I really do. I guess in a way, I was protecting you at the time also. You didn’t need to be known as the faggot’s only friend as no one, that I knew of, knew what gay-friendly was all about, or if they did would believe that of you,” Kirk commented. “Any of you guys have similar experiences, and if so, how did you get through those years to this point?” Kirk asked. “Colt, what’s your story since you’re new this year if you don’t mind telling us?” Kirk asked. Colt looked a little uneasy as he seemed to be put on the spot, but he was willing to share.
“Well, I always had this feeling that I was different. I didn’t have the drive to date girls like most of my friends did. I was always much happier hanging with my guy friends. I got razzed because I didn’t have a steady girlfriend like most of my swim team buddies. They’d kid me in the showers and all about having a nice cock and why didn’t I want to use it. I’d tease them telling them things like, if you like my cock like you say you do, why are you dating girls. That would get a rise out of them. I did take a girl to the prom my junior and senior year just because I thought I should, but I was awkward around them and the girls I took were looking for sex those nights and husbands after they graduated. I knew I wanted a career of sorts. I also knew that I was beginning to fixate on some of my buddies on the team in the showers and such. We’d even, at times, get involved in a little grab ass of sorts that started to get me excited and some of them also, which surprised me, but at least I wasn’t the only one. I was the only one, however, that took it seriously as it was just grab-ass for the rest of the guys. Then I’d have to hear about their sexual exploits with their girlfriends. That didn’t sound like anything I wanted any part of, which kind of surprised me. I used to ask myself why it was so important and what seemed to be an obsession with some of my buddies, and it wasn’t appealing at all to me. I wondered what was wrong with me. Then when I went to my local junior college, things got a little better as we were more focused on academics and our swim team there. All our teammates were serious about swimming, not just fucking girls. High school was over and behind us. We were supposedly serious adults now. I was fortunate to meet Josh when we came here for a swim meet, and immediately saw how nice everyone was here. He made no bones about being gay and embraced it, yet treated us all as important individuals regardless of our sexual motivation. I wanted to be part of this team in the worst way. That meeting changed my life, and now here I am with some of the most special people on the face of the earth. What little I did know about Gay sex, I’ve got a quick doctorate in it, I’d have to say if the rest of these guys agree. And for that, I couldn’t be more ecstatic and happy. I guarantee, you will be too in time, Kirk,” Colt explained. We all gave Colt a hug. I even kissed him on the cheek which made him happy. “Brady, what happened to you?” Colt asked him, curious himself about Brady. Brady chuckled, and shook his head.
