Chapter 35 – The Road Ahead.

I didn't see Austin and Steve again until Thanksgiving weekend.  After getting my
permission first, the boys convinced their parents to bring them to my house on
Friday evening and let them stay until Sunday afternoon.  I thought their parents
might object to this proposal, seeing it was a holiday weekend, but they seemed
eager to go along with the idea.  I discovered later that it was so they could do
their Christmas shopping without the boys and I couldn't blame them that they
wanted to use this opportunity to do this task in peace.

We started off by watching some college football and basketball games, but then
the boys wanted to repeat some of the activities they had enjoyed over
Columbus Day weekend.  To begin with, they asked Jared to join them for
another three-way, but he said he would rather just spend time with me today.
He then asked me if we could just make love to each other, but indicated that he
also wanted to penetrate me this time.  He'd never seemed interested in doing
this before, even though I had offered to let him try it on several other occasions.
When I agreed to his request, he told Steve and Austin that he'd join them the
following day, which seemed fine with them.

Once this had been agreed to, Steve and Austin went into the guest room, while
Jared and I entered the master bedroom.  Once we were alone, Jared repeated
his previous intentions.

"You don't mind that I want to do it to you this time, do you?" he wondered, while
studying my face.

"No, Jared," I replied.  "I've told you before that I was willing to do this for you and
all you had to do was to let me know you were interested, so I'm fine with the
idea."

Now that this was settled, we got undressed and began making out for a while
first, before Jared got ready to enter me for the very first time, although he had
done it with Steve and Austin prior to this.  After he put on a condom and added
some lube to it, Jared guided his penis into my rectum and we began making
love.  To my surprised, Jared took off like a sprinter, rather than a marathon
runner, so I knew this was going to be a quick race.  I didn't say anything about
this, because I figured I could do that later, so I let my little rabbit go at the pace
he wished.  As expected, it didn't take very long before Jared began panting, and
then grunting, as he unloaded his baby-makers into the tip of the latex love-
glove.

As soon as that happened, he collapsed on top of me, so I let him lie there and
didn't try to get him to roll off.  He wasn't that heavy and it wasn't uncomfortable,
especially after he recovered and began kissing me again.

"Thank you," he gushed.  "I enjoyed doing it more with you than I did with either
Steve or Austin.  You're the best and I love you so much."

"I love you too, sport, and I'm glad you enjoyed yourself," I replied.

"You do it to me now," Jared urged.  "You can do it anyway you want, because
I've already shot my load, so I doubt I'll be able to do that again for a while."

Since he didn't mind, we both stayed on the bed and merely swapped places, so
I could enter him while he was lying on his back.  I took a slower and much more
deliberate approach than he had and hoped he might catch on to the idea that
making love was not a race, but a slow, sensual dance.  For that reason, I took
my time, as I filled him with my love and attempted to bring him as much
pleasure as possible.

Once I had my orgasm, Jared let me know that he had truly enjoyed what we'd
done, even though he hadn't climaxed again.  We then got up and took a quick
shower, before Steve and Austin came running in to join us.  They were
extremely eager to tell us that they'd also had a great time and thought they were
getting better at doing it as well.  They were also filled with anticipation about
doing it with an actual girl, so hopefully their girlfriends will eventually give in to
them about this.

On Saturday, we spent a large portion of the day watching college football games
again, but we also took some time out to enjoy another session of unbridled sex.
This time, Steve and Austin wanted to do it on the bed next to us, while Jared
and I made love to each other again.  I was slightly reluctant about doing it this
way at first, but then the three of them convinced me that it wasn't much different
than what we'd already done with each other, so I agreed to their request.  I kept
an eye on how the other pair was doing, while Jared and I were busy taking turns
with each other, and noticed that all three boys seemed to be in a big hurry when
they were on top.  Therefore, I decided to address this issue with them, once we
had all finished.

"Guys, I know your satisfaction comes from the high you get from your sexual
release, but doing it in such a hurry will leave your partner feeling that it's just
another 'wham, bam, thank you ma'am or man' performance.  I think it's very
important that you understand they will appreciate the love making more if it lasts
longer and you are more passionate with them.

"Look, I don't expect you two to kiss each other," I added, while looking at the
other pair, "but there are other parts of the body that you can pay attention to,
both before and during the time you are doing the deed.  I want you to realize
this, because it's especially important when you are making love to a girl, since
they are capable of having multiple orgasms, compared to our solo ejaculation.
You can help make that happen for them, as long as you take your time and pay
attention to these other areas as well, and aren't merely thinking about your own
enjoyment."

By the expressions on their faces, I wasn't convinced they totally understood
what I was saying, although I did see some glimmers of comprehension.

"Will you show us what you're talking about, the next time you make love to
Jared again?" Steve asked.  "I think Austin and I will understand it better if we
can see you do it, rather than just have you tell us about it."

After checking with Jared next, I agreed that we would do this for them tomorrow.
Steve and Austin seemed thrilled that we were willing to go along with their
request, because they said they wanted their girlfriends to really enjoy it too, so
they'd be willing to do it more than just the one time.  Even though they had their
own reason, I was glad they were also thinking about their potential partners.

After going downstairs and watching some more football, we played a few video
games against each other next, but that was about all we did throughout the
remainder of the day.  When it was time to go to bed later, the boys wanted to
know if we could all sleep together in my bed again, like we'd done before.  Since
we were merely planning to sleep, I gave in to them once again.

Sunday morning, I slipped out of bed, got dressed and then drove down to pick
up Darren, but he went straight to bed after we got back.  This was because he
was exhausted after working both Black Friday and Saturday at the store, so I felt
he would probably fall asleep quickly.  I would still make sure that we kept the
noise down and didn't bother him, once the boys got up, because I could tell he
really needed his rest.

A little while later, Jared, Steve and Austin came trudging down the stairs looking
like grumpy old bears after a long hibernation, and they were just as hungry as
those bears as well.  After fixing them a rather large breakfast, I let them chill out
for a while, as they slowly began to overcome their early morning stupor.

As soon as they had shaken the fog from their brains, the boys wanted to go up
to my room again, so they could watch me make love to Jared.  They were eager
for me to show them what else they could, and possibly should, be doing when
making love.

Once we got upstairs, we all stripped down and I had them take a shower next,
while explaining that I wanted them to wash all areas of their bodies thoroughly.
When we finished, we all went back to my room again, still totally naked, and I
began to explain what I was about to do.  Even though we were already naked, I
informed them that they should begin kissing and making out with their partner
while slowly undressing each other, because it was an extremely erotic thing to
do.  Once they understood that, I began showing them what I meant, while
pretending Jared and I were still clothed.

First, I kissed Jared passionately, with our tongues dueling, before I started to
simulate removing his shirt and then having him do the same thing to me.  Then,
I began working on each of his ears and then made my way around his neck, as I
simulated I was undoing his pants and letting them fall to the ground.  After he
pretended doing the same things to me, I slowly began to work my way down his
chest, while momentarily stopping to pay attention to his nipples next, gently
nipping on those tiny nubs, and then I proceeded on to his bellybutton.  After I
had used my tongue to explore that area thoroughly, I moved down and began
working on his genitals,

Since the boys knew how to do this, I flipped Jared over and began to rim him
next, when I suddenly heard the other pair gasp.  Having a good idea what they
were thinking, I lifted my head and turned to speak to them.

"I can imagine what's going through you're minds right now, but that's why I had
everyone wash thoroughly first," I pointed out.  "Besides, if you have oral sex with
your girlfriend then you'll be sticking your tongue into her vagina, which is
actually quite similar.  Whether you are willing to do something like this or not will
be mostly a mental obstacle and controlled by what is going on in your brain.
Therefore, you'll just have to make up your mind about whether you think you'll
be able to do it or not, before you get to this point."

Once I'd finished explaining this, I went back to work on Jared.  I rimmed him
thoroughly and allowed Steve and Austin to get an up close look at what I was
doing.  Once I completed getting him ready in this manner, I encouraged Jared to
get in his favorite position, since I was trying to teach the boys that doing the
things their partner liked best would maximize their satisfaction level.  I then
began to make love to Jared in a very slow and tender way, while at the same
time kissing him and working on various parts of his body with my hands.  After a
lengthy and sensual coupling, we were both rewarded with very powerful and
satisfying orgasms.

Once Jared and I had recovered and cleaned up, Steve and Austin asked if we'd
watch them, while they practiced on each other.  After they explained that it was
just so we could make sure they were doing it correctly, Jared and I agreed and I
gave them a few more pointers as they were doing it.

To my surprise, Steve and Austin actually started out kissing each other, even
using their tongues, as they mimicked what I had done with Jared earlier.  When
they started to work on each other's ears and neck. I made them stop so I could
give them some advice, since they were doing it like a dog licking its master,
rather than a lover being affectionate.  Once they had improved their technique,
they moved down to their partner's breasts, and I suggested they could use their
teeth to lightly clamp down on the tiny nub.  I even urged them to use their
tongue to stimulate that area as well, but I also explained how they could add
some suction to increase their partner's feelings of enjoyment.

After they moved down and worked on each other's genitals for a brief time, I
was shocked when they voluntarily flipped their partner over and began to rim
him.  When I asked about this, they explained that they thought it was good
practice for having oral sex with a girl, so I didn't disagree.

This time when they finally entered each other, I explained how they should start
out using longer strokes and proceed at a slow, steady rhythm and then
gradually increase it as they went along.  I explained that machine-gunning into
their partner, as they had done previously, may have been pleasurable for them,
but it most likely would leave their partner feeling unfulfilled.  I think by heeding
my advice it helped them enjoy the experience even more, so I hoped it would
also pay off when they did it with a female.

After they'd finished, I had them clean up again before we went downstairs.
While we sat in the living room and waited for their parents to pick them up, we
spent a little more time discussing everything we had done.  I believe that
hearing each other's comments and observations helped to reinforce everything I
had tried to teach them earlier, because they were able to hear how the others
felt about the differences as well.

"That was fun and I learned a lot," Steve announced, when we'd finished our
discussion.  "I think we not only enjoyed doing it with each other, but it's been
good practice for Austin and me, for when we get to do it to a girl.  Even though
we had fun doing it with each other, we still really want to fuck a girl and get to
play with her titties.  I think that now we can make sure the girls enjoy doing it
with us too, so they might want to do it more than once."

Austin readily agreed with Steve's observation and I was glad they had found a
logical way to justify having done this.  I felt that since they looked at these
encounters in this fashion, then it should keep them from having any
psychological issues about their actions later, such as when they'd rimmed each
other.

Now that the Thanksgiving weekend had ended, things remained fairly quiet for
me until Christmas.  I spent some of my time planning on how I was going to
celebrate the holiday this year and what gifts I was going to buy, but I also felt
badly for Darren.  He had wanted to take time off from work, so he could go
home and spend some time with his parents, but since it's a busy time of year in
retail, he couldn't get the time off without losing his job.  Since he didn't want that
to happen, he told his parents that he'd come home to spend a week with them in
mid-January and they could have their Christmas celebration then.  Since they
understood his dilemma, his parents eagerly agreed to his plan and looked
forward to seeing him then.

Besides having Darren here for the holiday, I knew Jared would also be spending
plenty of time with me during his vacation.  In fact, he showed up at my door
shortly after he got off the bus on the final day of classes, as his Christmas break
got underway.  I did, however, make him agree to one request and that was that
he'd spend Christmas Eve at home.  I knew this would be important to Sherry,
because she wanted him to be there to open his presents with Josh and her on
Christmas morning.  Somewhat reluctantly, he agreed, but only after I assured
him they'd all be coming down to spend the rest of Christmas Day and having
Christmas dinner with me.

Darren, however, wouldn't be joining us for this meal, because once his plans to
visit his parents fell through, Brittney talked him into spending Christmas Day
with her family instead.  Since he would be leaving early Christmas morning to do
this, I opted to give him his presents on Christmas Eve.  The first gift was a
Christmas card, but inside I explained this gift was to give him an opportunity of
working on two more picture books with me, along with the benefits that included.
The idea for doing this had been pitched to me by my publisher, since our first
two picture books had sold so well, but it would also give Darren a chance to
earn some extra money, which he could then use toward his college expenses.
After reading my message, Darren looked up at me and smiled, before eagerly
accepting the offer.

The second gift was a round-trip ticket, which I had purchased so he could fly
home to visit his parents.  He had asked me if I would make the reservation for
him, since he didn't have a credit card so he could complete the transaction
online, and then he was going to give me the money later.  Instead, I decided to
use this as another gift for him and informed him that now he could save his
money for something else

As a final present, I'd bought him a lovely gold chain to wear, since I had heard
him make comments about how good they looked on other guys, such as in a
movie or on TV.  I knew he'd appreciate this and it was something he probably
wouldn't purchase for himself, at least not yet, since he was being very frugal
right now.  He might be willing to splurge on one later, once he had finished
college and secured a job, but since that was such a long way off, I decided to do
this for him now.

Needless to say, Darren was thrilled with the gifts and thanked me several times
for them.  In return, he gave me a couple of very special gifts of his own, the first
of which was a special honor.  He asked me to be the best man at his wedding,
but then quickly added that he didn't know when that would be or if it would be
with Brittney, but he wanted me to agree, nonetheless.  I thought it was
remarkable that he was willing to make this commitment to me, even though he
wasn't ready to make the marriage commitment, but I assured him I'd be honored
to do it, whenever he was ready.

After I accepted his offer, Darren then handed me a package.  Once I unwrapped
it, I discovered a series of drawings he had done just for me.  There were
portraits of Jared, Josh, Austin, Steve and Dean, along with a self-portrait.  Each
one was exquisitely drawn and extremely lifelike, so I was unable to take my
eyes off of them.

"I thought you might like to make a separate wall with portraits of your adopted
sons," he stated, while smiling broadly.  "I know that's how each of us thinks of
you, so I wanted you to be able to remember each of us as we are now."

I thought this was a marvelous gift and I assured him I'd treasure them always.
Since his other artwork hung on the wall on the right side of my office, I would
hang these on the opposite wall, so I'd have something wonderful to look at, no
matter which way I turned.

After thanking him for such wonderful presents, Darren and I spent the remainder
of the evening playing video games, but we also watched the 1951 Alastair Sim
version of 'A Christmas Carol' before we went to bed.  Even though there have
been many versions made of this beloved story, I believe this is one of the best
and I look forward to watching it every Christmas Eve.  I slept very soundly
afterward, while looking forward to the big day ahead.

When I invited Sherry and the boys to come down to the house on Christmas
Day, after they had opened their presents at home, Sherry insisted that she
wanted to help me prepare Christmas dinner, which we would all enjoy together.
We would exchange gifts first, which made me excited, because I had bought
each of them something I thought they'd enjoy.  I had made the long trip to the
city to do my shopping, since I preferred not to run into anyone locally, but I still
hoped the locals would eventually forget about my conviction.  For now, however,
I opted to do it this way, and it was during this shopping excursion that I'd also
purchased the chain I'd given to Darren.

When Sherry and the boys arrived, we exchanged greetings, kisses and hugs,
and then I led them into the living room, where I had decorated my artificial tree.
The presents I had purchased for them were all stacked beneath it, so I went
over, grabbed a package and handed it to Sherry.  Once she opened it, she
discovered that I'd selected an elegant necklace and matching pair of earrings for
her.  She immediately thanked me and stated that she thought they were lovely,
although she feared that I had spent far too much on her.  After I insisted that
had not been the case, she then assured me that she would enjoy wearing them
when she dressed up, but conceded that these items were far too fancy to wear
to work.

I was pleased that she seemed thrilled with her gift, so now I grabbed the next
package, which was a large box, and handed it to Josh.  I think this surprised
him, because it looked as if he thought I was mistakenly handing it to the wrong
person.  I assumed that when he first saw this good-sized package sitting under
the tree, he instantly concluded it was something I had purchased for Jared.
Therefore, when I handed it to him instead, he looked at me quizzically for a few
seconds and then glanced nervously over at Jared next, as if he was expecting
me to realize my mistake.

Noting his reluctance to take the package, I assured him that it was indeed
meant for him, so he finally accepted the gift and eagerly ripped off the wrapping
paper.  As the writing on the box came into view, he discovered I'd bought him
his own PS3, which I figured he would enjoy having it at home, so he could
challenge his brother or even Dean, when he came over.  I also handed him a
smaller package, which contained a couple of additional games, which Jared had
suggested.  I was fairly sneaky when I got Jared to do this, because I'd merely
asked him which games I should buy that Josh might like to play on my PS3.
Jared certainly hadn't suspected I was going to get Josh his own system.

Having seen Josh rip the paper off of his present and toss it on the floor, Boo-
Boo immediately grabbed some of it in his mouth and then shook his head back
and forth.  The wrapping paper was flopping around as he did this, until Boo-
Boo's saliva and teeth caused it to tear and fall harmlessly to the floor again.

"What's Boo-Boo doing that for?" Josh wondered, watching the dog's actions.

"I think his mimicking what you did to the paper," I responded.  "I'm not sure if he
thought you were fighting the paper or if it had hurt you, but Boo-Boo seems to
be helping you fend off the threat."

The boys got a good laugh out of my explanation and I felt Boo-Boo would
probably repeat the process as each of the other gifts were unwrapped.

Now that Josh was taken care of, it was finally time for me to hand Jared his
gifts.  When he opened the first one, he found a gold chain, identical to the one
I'd given Darren, although neither of them knew about the other's chain yet, since
Darren was with Brittney's family today.  I had decided to do this because I
thought it would be cute for the 'brothers' to have an identical item they could
each wear.

The second package was even smaller and when he opened it, he found a gold
ring.  As soon as he saw it, he looked up at me quizzically, since he wasn't quite
sure what to make of it.  I had a feeling that he was wondering if this was a
wedding ring, or even an engagement ring, so I felt I'd better explain it to him.

"It's a promise ring, which I had specifically made for you," I advised him.  "In the
center is an Irish Claddaugh, which shows two hands clasping a heart, with a
crown above it.  The hands signify friendship, the heart love and the crown
loyalty.  On one side of the Claddaugh is a ruby, which is your birthstone, and on
the other side is a diamond, which is my birthstone.  On either side of those
jewels you'll find a Celtic knot, which signifies that we are now bound together
forever.  The Celtic knot is very special, because it has no end and is, therefore,
infinite, just like our love."

Jared stood gawking at me, so I wasn't certain if he was able to fully comprehend
the meaning of my gift.  Sherry, however, was beaming, while Josh was still busy
examining his PS3 and reading everything about it.  Seeing Jared's confusion, I
decided to explain my intentions further.

"Jared, the ring signifies my promise that I will be with you forever, if that's what
you want," I explained.  "I had it made so you can either wear it on your finger, or
if you are afraid that might draw too much attention, you can slip it onto the chain
I just gave you and wear it beneath your shirt instead.  No matter which of those
methods you choose, the ring is my way of pledging my love and devotion to
you."

Now that he fully comprehended the meaning of my gift, he raced across the
short expanse separating us and threw his arms around my neck.  Then, he
began kissing me passionately, even though his mother and brother were still in
the room with us.  When I glanced about, Sherry was smiling broadly and I
thought she might even burst from joy, but Josh had a slightly different reaction
to what his brother was doing.

"Ewwww.  Get a room or something," he teased, which earned him a playful cuff
from his mother.

"Hey," he chirped in response, while giving his mother an evil glare.

"Behave yourself," she admonished.  "After all, it's Bob's house, so you can just
go home if you don't like what they're doing."

"What about dinner?" Josh pressed.

"I guess you'll just miss out on the food then, seeing the rest of us are eating
here," his mother continued, as Josh flashed her a look of horror.

"Don't worry, Josh," I chimed in.  "We're not going to keep this up, so you can
stay and eat with us."

"We are too going to keep this up," Jared challenged, so I quickly gave him
another kiss to shut him up.

"In time, my love," I whispered in his ear, when our lips parted.  "There is a long
day ahead and we have many other things to do as well."

Jared accepted my assurance, so we sat and chatted with his mother and
brother for a while longer, after Jared proudly showed his new ring to his mother.

"It's so beautiful, Bob," she gushed.  "Not just the ring, but the meaning behind it.
I'm so glad that you moved in here and that you and Jared found each other."

I thanked Sherry for her support, and then Jared gave his mother a huge hug and
kiss as well, to show his approval for what she'd just said.  Josh, however, did his
best to ignore the rest of us.

Now that they had opened my gifts, I thought we were done, but I was wrong.  I
was suddenly informed that they had a couple of presents for me as well.  First,
Sherry took something out of her purse and handed it to me.  It was a gift
certificate from the pool company I'd used, which indicated it was good for a pre-
season pool maintenance inspection and cleaning.  Since I knew this was quite
an expensive proposition, I began to object that they had spent too much for it,
but it appeared they were prepared for this.

"No we didn't and we're happy to do this for you," Sherry stated.  "We all use the
pool and enjoy it as well, so it benefits all of us, not just you.  Besides, it's the
least we could do, considering all of the wonderful hours we spend in the pool
with you."

Since it was obviously something she and the boys wanted to do, I thanked them
for their thoughtful gift.  As soon as I did that, Jared ran and grabbed something
out of his coat.  When he came back, he handed me another package.

"You've already done far too much," I protested.

"No we haven't, but this present is just from me," he explained, with his chest
puffed out.

I was somewhat stunned that he had done this, but I also sensed it was
extremely important to him, so I removed the wrapping paper to see what was
inside.  I was pleasantly surprised to discover it was a photograph of Jared and
me, which he had placed in a very handsome frame.  As I looked at it more
closely, I realized I had never seen this particular snapshot of us before, although
I recognized where and when it had been taken.

Unbeknownst to me, Sherry must have taken this shot sometime after I showed
up at Jared's last birthday party.  Even though I don't remember anyone having a
camera at the time, I had to admit that it was a great photo of the two of us.
Jared and I were both sporting humungous grins and appeared to be glowing,
since it was the first time we had been together after I was released from jail.
Jared had an arm wrapped around my shoulder, which almost appeared as if it
was both a protective measure, so no one would harm me, but it also looked as if
he was staking out his claim.  I don't believe either of us could have looked any
happier.

"It's perfect and I love it," I announced.  "I shall cherish it always and I will put it in
a prominent place in my office, where I can admire it daily."

Jared seemed thrilled with my response, so he hugged and kissed me once
more, which elicited another groan from his brother.

"Hang on, because we've got a few more things to hand out," I announced, which
brought questioning looks from the others.  "We haven't given Boo-Boo his
presents yet."

They all smiled, now that they understood what I was referring to and watched as
I grabbed a bag and reached inside.

"Josh, you can give Boo-Boo this first," I stated, while handing him a canvas dog
Boo-Boo could play with.  Boo-Boo took it immediately and began shaking it in
his teeth.

"He's going to rip it," Josh yelled, concerned.

"That's why I got this," I added, as I handed the next gift to Jared to give to Boo-
Boo.

It was a very thick rope, which was knotted at both ends and could be used to tug
on, since Boo-Boo liked to play tug of war with things.  This way we could use the
rope and not the canvas dog, which means it might last longer.  While Jared was
playing with Boo-Boo, I went out to the kitchen to get his final gift, which I carried
back to the living room with me.  When I noticed Jared was getting tired playing
with Boo-Boo, I held out the last gift, which was a bone I'd had my private
shopper purchase for me at the grocery store.  Boo-Boo immediately grabbed it
and began chewing on it.

"Well, I think he's taken care of for now," I noted, as we watched Boo-Boo gnaw
on the bone.

Now that the gifts had been unwrapped, we decided to watch the parade on
television next.  When that ended, Sherry and I went out to the kitchen, so we
could get dinner started, and then we all watched a movie together, while it was
cooking.  After the movie ended, we shared a very lovely family meal and
enjoyed a wonderful afternoon together.  I would have to say that this was the
best Christmas I've been a part of since my parents had passed away, so I
looked forward to sharing future holidays with Sherry and the boys as well.

That night, after Sherry and Josh had returned home, Jared and I made love to
each other again.  In fact, it turned out to be the most passionate session we'd
ever shared.  I'm not sure if it had been inspired by the holiday season or
possibly the gifts we'd exchanged earlier, but tonight was much more than just
about loving and pleasing each other.  It was a lifetime commitment of caring and
sharing, which meant our orgasms were merely icing on the cake.

I had let Jared go first, since I didn't want to take the chance that he would
ejaculate while I was making love to him and then not be able to enjoy being on
top.  Surprisingly, he seemed eager to make love to me tonight and actually
admitted he was willing to do it more often as well, although he's still a natural
bottom and prefers doing it that way best.  Once he'd achieved his release, we
took a quick breather and then I returned the favor.  Much to my surprise, Jared
had a second ejaculation when I made love to him, even though it was a much
smaller load than he normally would have released.

Jared spent the next few days with me as well, although I also made sure he
spent some time with his mother when she wasn't working.  He would have both
breakfast and dinner with her, as well as spend time with her on her days off, but
other than that he was with me the rest of the time.

For the most part, Josh was staying at Dean's house whenever his mother was
at work, but Darren also invited him down to join us a couple of times, so he
stayed here instead.  We felt it was important that he wasn't left home alone, so
we worked together to prevent that from happening, because we didn't want Josh
to feel left out or ignored.  It was just that he couldn't stay with us unless Darren
was going to be here as well, because I still had to deal with the various
restrictions from having been labeled as a 'sex offender,' so I needed Darren or
Sherry to be here whenever Josh was with us, to avoid any additional problems.

Josh, however, wasn't the only one that spent time with us.  Five days after
Christmas, Austin and Steve came to stay with us for a few days.  Once again,
they had talked their parents into letting them do this, since their mothers and
fathers still had to work, so the boys felt this would prevent their parents from
worrying about what they were up to while they were at their jobs.  They had also
arranged it so they were going to be here with Jared and me for New Year's Eve.
Their folks were happy to allow them to do this, because it gave them the
opportunity to go out and have a good time too, without having to worry about the
boys throwing a party at their house and then possibly coming home to find it
trashed.

Since they were all going to be here, I thought it would be nice to plan a little
soiree for the boys, but we'd also invited Sherry, Josh and Dean to join us, along
with any of the other parents that didn't have other plans.  Even though they all
thanked us for the offer, it seemed that each of them were looking forward to
spending a quiet evening out with just their spouse, which they seldom got a
chance to do.

When Austin and Steve showed up to begin their stay, they immediately wanted
to go upstairs and have some fun, but I thought the three of them should just go
upstairs to fool around without me.  The problem was, they had another idea and
were insistent that I join them.  Thinking something was up, I asked why they
thought they needed me to go with them and that's when they explained that
since they hadn't done anything since Thanksgiving, they felt they needed me to
loosen them up with the dildos first.  Since I didn't really think this was necessary
and they were quite capable of loosening each other up, I tried to talk them out of
this.  They, however, were adamant and kept trying to convince me, so after
covering the same ground several times, I finally relented and agreed to do this
with them.

Jared, of course, didn't need to be stretched, so Austin wanted to go first.
Carefully, I used the smallest dildo on him first and then gradually worked my
way up to include the next two larger sizes, before moving on and doing the
same thing with Steve.  When I'd finished getting them ready, I felt Steve and
Austin would then take turns with each other, but they had something else in
mind.

"Uncle Bob, can I do it to you this time, while Jared does it to Steve?" Austin
asked.  "Then you can do it with Jared afterward, while Steve does it to me."

I had to stop and think about this for a few seconds, to make certain that I fully
comprehended what they wanted.  It was clear they weren't asking me to make
love to either of them and it appeared that they merely wanted me to allow them
to have a chance to doing something with Jared and me.  I didn't see any harm in
doing it this way, as long as Jared was agreeable, so I turned to him and asked
what he thought next.

"Yeah, why not?" he responded.  "I think it might be fun to try it like that."

Since Jared was fine with the idea, I gave my consent to their plan.  Steve and
Austin seemed thrilled that we had agreed to do this and immediately began
kissing Jared and me, to show their appreciation.  This caught me by surprise,
since the kisses they gave me was more passionate than a father-child kiss, but
they obviously didn't care, since they were the ones that had initiated it.  Once
they broke their lip-locks on us, I prepared for Austin to enter me, while Jared got
ready to penetrate Steve.

I had to admit that Austin was a little better at doing this than I'd expected, so I
guess the time he'd spent practicing with Steve had paid off.  He was taking it
nice and easy and going slowly, and when I complimented him for having taken
to heart the advice I had given them over Thanksgiving, he told me that he'd also
been taking it slower when he jacked off too, so he could learn how to delay his
ejaculation.  He said he wanted to make his experience last as long as possible
when he did it with his girlfriend, if he could convince her to do it with him, but he
also wanted to make sure that she enjoyed it too, so it wasn't just a one-time
thing.  For that reason, he held on quite a bit longer than I'd anticipated and did
an admirable job.  Once he and Jared had both finished, we took a short
breather, before I made love to Jared and Steve did the same thing with Austin.

The following evening, the boys wanted to switch things around again, so this
time Steve made love to me first, while Jared did the same thing with Austin.
Although he might not have lasted as quite as long as Austin had, he still
performed very well and I was impressed with his effort.  Once both he and Jared
had ejaculated, I made love to Jared again, while Austin took his turn with Steve.
Since we had now done something with each other, it helped us to form an even
deeper bond than we had shared before.  I also think Steve and Austin's obvious
improvement indicated that their first time with a female should go very well, no
matter when it actually happened.

The boys used the remaining time to help me plan the various things we'd do on
New Year's Eve next.  This meant we had to do some shopping at Walmart, in
order to pick up the items we were going to need, so we decided to do this one
evening after we dropped Darren off at work.  Since I still wanted to mask my
identity, while I was out with the boys, I wore my hat and pulled it low on my
forehead.  I didn't wear the sunglasses, since it would look foolish if I wore them
at night and I thought that might draw even more unwanted attention.  We then
made our way around the store and picked out snacks and drinks, but we also
grabbed some other items that we could use to help pass the time and still have
some fun doing it.  I also threw in some party favors, which included noisemakers
and hats, because I thought they would make the evening a little more festive.

When the big night came, Sherry brought Josh and Dean down just after 6:00,
because I'd also fixed a big dinner, so we could spend even more time together.
Darren had also invited Brittney to join us, but they weren't going to stay, once
we'd finished eating.  They had made plans with some of their friends and were
going out with them later, but I thought it was nice that they were willing to still
take the time to have dinner with us first.

For this meal, I had prepared a large ham, topped with a brown sugar glaze and
covered with pineapple rings, with a cherry placed in the center of each one.  I'd
also prepared a huge bowl of mashed potatoes and another with candied yams,
plus I'd made a green bean casserole and fixed a Greek salad for each of us.  I
also had pumpkin and pecan pies for dessert, along with plenty of French vanilla
ice cream and two cans of whipped cream to top them off.

We had a lovely time, filled with great conversation and a whole lot of teasing, as
Brittney was initiated into the playful antics of this group of young men.  When we
finally pushed ourselves away from the table, we said goodbye to Darren and
Brittney and then the boys brought out one of the activities they had selected to
pass the time until midnight.  First, they selected 'The Game of Life,' which they'd
asked me to purchase, and we played it until we finally declared a winner.
Before that happened though, the boys had a blast cracking numerous jokes and
teasing each other about some of the life options they had either chosen or
ended up with, such as getting stuck with a lousy career or having a wife and
whole bunch of children.  This was all done in fun, however, so everyone
accepted it the same vein as it was being offered.

After we finished that game, I brought out the game 'Days of Wonder: Ticket to
Ride,' which I had selected.  It was designed for two to five players, which was
exactly the number of boys there were, so Sherry and I agreed to sit out and
watch the boys play.  I had to read the directions to them though, since none of
them had ever played this before, but they all caught on rather quickly to the
objective of the game.  It also required a modicum of knowledge about U.S.
geography, which I thought they might acquire as they played, so it might also
help them with their schoolwork in the future.  That's another part of the reason I
had chosen it for them to play.

The game also required a bit of strategy, which the boys seemed to pick up quite
quickly as well, so it soon became extremely cutthroat.  Sherry and I were
amazed by some of the things that came up in the questions and I think we also
learned quite a bit from watching.  The boys seemed to have a great time doing
this and even stated that they wouldn't mind playing it again in the future.  Since
Sherry and I had nearly as much fun watching them, I guess this turned out to be
a pretty good choice after all.

Since quite a bit of time had passed since we'd eaten, I brought out the snacks
next and made sure that everyone also had a drink.  Once that had been taken
care of, we sat down to play Uno, at my suggestion.  Talk about competitive and
cutthroat!  The boys were having a blast dumping on each other, as well as doing
the same thing to Sherry and me, but there was a lot of name-calling and threats
being passed around as well, although it was all harmless and done good-
naturedly.  I believe everyone had a great deal of fun playing this too, and when
our second Uno game ended, it was time for us to great ready for the final event
of the evening.   To prepare for this, Sherry offered to help me pass out the party
favors, as we anticipated the big, final countdown.

To begin with, I gave everyone a plastic hat to wear, which included pirate hats,
leprechaun derbies, cowboy stetsons and something more feminine for Sherry.
Even though the boys mildly complained that this was lame, they still put them on
and I think they actually enjoyed wearing them.

While I was doing this, Sherry began passing out the assortment of noisemakers
and gave the boys one each of the first three devices.  I had selected these
things because they were simple to operate and would allow the boys an
opportunity to make plenty of noise when the time came, plus they were all fairly
inexpensive.  These devices included a simple clicker, which you squeeze
between your finger and thumb to make a clicking sound, a plastic Racket-N-
Raise noisemaker, in various shapes and colors, which you spin around on a
handle to make the sound, plus a party blowout, where a tube unrolls when you
blow on the horn-mouthpiece at one end.

Before Sherry finished passing those out, I began giving each boy several party-
poppers, which would release a collection of streamers when you set them off.
Even though I knew this was going to leave a mess for me to clean up afterward,
I figured 'what the hell!'  It's New Year's Eve and I want the boys to really enjoy
themselves.

We continued to snack while we watched the festivities on TV, until it got closer
to the witching hour.  Then the boys started to whoop it up as midnight
approached and this prompted Boo-Boo to get excited and he began jumping on
the boys, since he thought this was some sort of a game.  We all counted down
with the announcer, as we watched the ball begin to drop in Times Square, and
you could feel the excitement building.

As soon as we reached zero and it was officially the New Year, the boys began
to make a tremendous ruckus with the noisemakers and the room was filled with
the sounds of small pops, as streamers filled the air, before ending up on the
floor around us.  Boo-Boo began barking when the boys started with the
noisemakers and he was jumping and trying to catch the streamers in the air,
before they hit the ground.  The boys were getting a kick out of watching him do
this, but then we all started wishing each other a Happy New Year, giddily
acknowledging the arrival of the New Year.

As our impromptu celebration came to an end and the boys began to quiet down,
I announced that I wanted to make a toast.  I had purchased a small bottle of
champagne for Sherry and I to share and a bottle of sparkling cider for the boys,
so I opened the two bottles and poured each of us the appropriate beverage in a
champagne glass.   Once everyone had their drink, I offered a toast for a year of
prosperity, fun and happiness.

After we consumed our beverages, with most of us taking refills, we finally
decided it was time to call an end to this long and joyous evening.  Sherry, Josh
and Dean bid us all goodnight and then began walking up the road to Sherry's
house, since she didn't feel either of us should risk driving.  Even though we
hadn't had that much to drink and it was such a short distance, the potential
problems that would arise if someone else plowed into our vehicle, we caused a
minor fender-bender or a police car suddenly appeared and stopped us was far
too great to risk.  Therefore, we stood and watched their progress, until we saw
Sherry unlock her front door and they all disappeared inside.

After I locked up the house and turned off the remaining lights, I went upstairs to
join the boys, since they had raced up the steps as soon as we'd come back
inside.  Once I entered my bedroom, the three boys raced over and wrapped
their arms around me, just before they began thanking me for a wonderful
evening.  They then told me that tonight was the most fun they'd ever had on
New Year's Eve, even though they had each celebrated at home with their
parents during previous years.  They explained that when they had done that
they only watched the celebrations on TV together or basically did their own thing
until midnight, when they all came together to participate in the final countdown
to the New Year.  They said this was much better and more fun, because they
had enjoyed playing the various games too, as well as having all the different
noisemakers and participating in the toast at the end, even though they weren't
allowed to drink any alcohol.

After Austin and Steve gave me a hug and a kiss, Jared wrapped me up in a very
passionate, tongue dueling lip-lock, before they announced that they all wanted
to sleep together again.  This time, however, Austin and Steve switched sides, so
I cuddled with Austin, while Steve was behind me and Jared was behind him, but
we were all too exhausted to even think about doing anything sexual.

I slept very soundly that evening, probably because of all the activity I'd been
involved in, the small amount of alcohol I'd consumed and the late hour we went
to bed, so I woke up refreshed and rearing to go again the following morning.  I
got up first, of course, even though it was nearly 10:00 by the time I rolled out of
bed, which was late for me.  I'm used to getting up much earlier than this, so I felt
I needed to hurry up and get moving.  After going through my normal post wake-
up routine, I went down to the kitchen to make a pot of coffee next.  I then
cleaned up the mess we'd created the previous evening, before I began to get
things ready so I could fix the boys something to eat when they came down.

I quickly got out a bag of potatoes and started to boil them, while I cracked open
two-dozen jumbo eggs, as I prepared to make scrambled eggs for everyone.  I
wouldn't pour the mixture into the frying pan until they came downstairs, but
before that happened the potatoes finished boiling, so I drained the water and left
the potatoes to cool.

While I was waiting for that to occur, I took two pounds of bacon and a large
package of sausage links out of the freezer, and then I chopped up an onion,
before I began cutting up the potatoes.  Once I'd finished those tasks, I was
ready to make home fries for us as well.  I also took out a loaf of bread, which I
would turn into a stack of toast, and once I had all of this set, I merely waited for
the boys to join me.  It was after 11:00 before they came stumbling down the
stairs, still clad in their underwear, and staggered into the kitchen.

"What's for breakfast?" Jared asked, which made the other pair perk up slightly.

"How do scrambled eggs, toast, bacon, sausage and home fries sound?" I
replied.

"It sounds super!" Steve answered.

"It sure does.  I'm starved," Austin added.

"Starved?  After all you packed away last night?" I teased, which earned me a
scowl.

"Hey, I'm a growing boy!" he snapped back.

"You'd better keep active then or you'll be growing in the wrong direction," I
tossed back, which garnered me a disbelieving sneer.

With a sudden sense of urgency, I placed four slices of bread in the toaster and
tossed some bacon and sausages into one of the large frying pans.  Then I put
the ingredients for the home fries in another skillet, before I poured the eggs into
a third frying pan.  While I was keeping an eye on that, I buttered the toast as it
popped up and put more bread in its place.  I was also flipping the bacon strips,
turning the sausages and stirring both the home fries and eggs, so I began to
wish that I'd had another pair of hands.  As each item finished cooking, I placed it
in a bowl or on a platter next and then I started carrying the various items into the
dining room.

The boys were already sitting at the table and had a plate in front of them, so I
placed the food in the center of the table and told them to help themselves.  As
they were doing that, I poured each of them a glass of orange juice and a glass
of milk, before I poured myself another cup of coffee, to go along with my glass of
juice.  I then sat down and filled my plate, before the boys got ready to take
seconds.  I'm glad I was able to do this, because there wasn't much left by the
time the human locust had finished grazing.

Once everyone was full, we went into the living room to watch the various
parades, before the football games came on.  I was somewhat surprised that the
boys didn't bother to go upstairs and get dressed first, since it was a little chilly in
the house, but they all cuddled together on the sofa, under the blankets I kept
there for situations such as this.  Although they didn't know it, I also stopped to
turn up the heat, because I wouldn't mind seeing them lounging around in just
their skivvies.

When the parades began to wind down and prior to the first football game
starting, the boys wanted to go upstairs and have sex next, because they thought
this would be a great way to start out the New Year.  After hearing what they
wanted to do, I gave in and went upstairs with them.  We started out with Austin
doing it to me again and Jared drilling Steve, and then Steve had sex with Austin,
while I made love to Jared.  It was all very satisfying and Steve and Austin were
thrilled that they got to do this again before they had to go home.

Once we finished, the boys decided to get dressed before we started watching
the football game, because they knew Sherry would eventually be coming down
and they were worried that Darren might bring Brittney back with him as well.
We weren't exactly sure when any of these people were going to arrive or when
Steve or Austin's parents would be showing up to take them home, except that it
would happen before dinner.  For that reason, they felt it would be best if they
were ready before this happened.

To our surprise, Steve's mother showed up around 2:00 to take the boys home.
It turned out that she had drawn the short straw and was assigned this duty, and
Sherry, Josh and Dean hadn't even come down to join us yet.  This made we
wonder if that pair had slept in even later, otherwise I would have thought they'd
have been here by now.  Anyway, I invited Steve's mother in, while the boys
went to collect their things, and when they rejoined us, she asked them if they'd
had a good time.  They each gave her a resounding 'YES!' in response, which for
some reason made her chuckle.

Once she backed out of my driveway, she drove up to Sherry's house to pick up
Dean next, since she was dropping him off at his place as well.  She and the
boys all went inside for a few minutes, so she could chat briefly with Sherry, who
gave her a quick synopsis of what we'd done the previous evening.   She also
filled Sherry in about her evening and then she took her precious, yet somewhat
subdued, cargo home.  I think we were all satisfied with how things had gone and
were eagerly looking forward to a much better year ahead.

Josh and Sherry came down for a while, but Jared stayed with me for the rest of
the day.  He didn't have to return to school until the day after tomorrow, so
Sherry said he could do this, but we mostly just cuddled as we watched the
various games.  Later that night, when we went to bed, he wanted us to make
love again and told me that he felt we were now like a married couple, since I
had given him the promise ring.  For that reason, he felt that every time we made
love helped to punctuate the deep and abiding love we felt for one another and I
readily agreed with his assessment, since I couldn't find any flaws in his
argument.

I actually began to feel sad when I had to drop him off at his house the following
day, because I really had enjoyed having him around.  The house suddenly
seemed empty again without him beside me, and even though it had only been a
few days since I'd last slept alone, the bed seemed awfully big and terribly lonely
without him here to share it with me.  I knew I'd have to get used to this, at least
for a little while longer, but I looked forward to the day when we wouldn't have to
go our separate ways any longer.  I knew this situation was just temporary and
would end when he graduated from high school, as long as he decided to attend
college locally.  If he did, then he could just move in with me, but there would still
be plenty of opportunities for us to be together in the interim, so that would have
to suffice for now.

There was another bright spot in this situation, which was that Darren would still
be here with me until the fall, so I wouldn't be totally alone until then.  Even
though he wasn't sharing my bed, his being around helped to keep me from
feeling lonely and gave me someone to do things with when Jared wasn't here.

Even though I still had Darren around, there was still a certain amount of
loneliness in the house, an empty place in my bed and a void in my soul, which
would temporarily be healed each time Jared came down to spend time with me.
Only his presence could alleviate those ills, so I looked forward to his return the
following weekend, as well as to our long and bright future together, which still
lay ahead.
