James: Chapter 5


After almost half an hour of soaking in the warm water, James decided it
was time to get out. He stood and let rivulets of water flow from his head
onto his shoulders, splitting to run down his back, bum cheeks and legs;
down his arms and off his finger tips and down over his chest, his flat
little tummy, then down his legs, rejoining the rest of the water still
waiting in the bath. He stood and watched two lines of water skirt each
side of his navel and meet, then run down his groin and drip from the end
of his penis. He ran a hand through his hair, pushing it back off of his
forehead, and turned to look for the towels Tom had left out for him. He
also saw the tee-shirt Tom had left on the chair by the door and wondered
when his new friend had brought that in. He hadn't heard Tom come in. He
climbed out of the bath and pulled the plug chain. Then he reached for one
of the big fluffy white towels and wrapped it around his shoulders. Even
wrapped around his shoulders, the towel still reached down below his
knees. It was huge and thick and so soft. As he gently rubbed, it seemed to
just mop the remaining water right off of his skin. All that was left now
was his hair. He pulled the towel over his hair and began to rub. His
mother used to do that. After a bath he would dry himself, put on his pj's,
and then sit between his mother's legs. She would gently rub his hair dry
while they watched TV. Although things were heaps better than just a few
hours ago, nothing, absolutely nothing was going to fill the hole that his
mother's death had left. Oh, mum!

He walked over to the tee-shirt. It was white and as he picked it up off
the chair and held it, he realised just how big a difference there was
between a 12 year old boy and a full-grown man. He slipped it over his
still damp hair, put his arms through, and let it fall full length over his
body. It just about reached his knees and was so large. He flapped his arms
and it was like angle wings. He looked round and saw his own clothes still
on the floor and wondered what he should do with them? He rolled them into
a bundle and carried them with him as he worked his way back down the
stairs and along the hall to the lounge. Where was Tom?  James wandered
round the Lounge until he heard noises coming from a door off the
multimedia area. He walked up the steps beside the fireplace and over to
the door.  Tom was putting slices of pizza onto two plates on a central
island. He was standing in what looked like an almost complete kitchen, but
with no doors on any of the cupboards. All the appliances were installed
and working, but the builder still had to grout the tiles and hang the
doors, which were still in their boxes leaning against the open cupboards
all down one side. Already on the plates were steaming baked potatoes
dribbling with melting butter and cheese. It wasn't that long since he'd
had two burgers and two orders of fries, but James was definitely hungry
again. Tom had a bandage around one hand, where he had removed the grit and
treated his cuts with TCP.

"Where shall I put these?" James held up the bundle of damp clothes for Tom
to see.

Tom hadn't heard James enter and jumped at the boy's voice. He dropped a
slice of pizza upside-down on one of the plates. "Shit."

"Sorry."

"NO, no, no. It's not your fault. I was just focusing on not dropping it
and didn't hear you come in." He flipped the slice over with a knife, but
half the topping stuck to the potato. "Err, put you clothes over by that
door. I'll deal with them when we've eaten." He picked up both plates,
placed them on trays, took them through to the media lounge and put them
down on a coffee table. "I'm a bit of a slob I'm afraid; I normally watch
telly while I eat dinner. I'll stick a DVD on. What kind do you like?"

James reappeared from the kitchen. "Oh, anything really."

"Well how about Harry Potter? I've just bought 'the Prisoner of Azkaban'."

"Really?"

"Yeah. I've ready all the books so far too."

"I've not read the last one yet."

"Right, well then. Harry potter it is. Sorry about the shirt, but I don't
really have anything smaller." He paused, could he say what was going
through his mind? That James looked really cute in his oversized tee-shirt
and nothing else. As the boy stood there the tee-shirt touched his tummy
and was tented ever so slightly a little lower. Tom caught himself looking
and quickly turned to concentrate on loading the DVD, hoping James had not
seen him staring.

They sat side by side on the long sofa directly opposite a 42" plasma
screen. James thought it was even better than being in a cinema because you
were sitting on a very comfortable sofa instead of naff chairs someone had
spilt their ice-cream on! Tom handed him his plate on the small round
wooden tray. James couldn't wait.

"Slow down! The potato will still be quite hot. I'll go and get us a couple
of cokes while the DVD gets going. I can't stand having to wait for all the
copyright warnings at the beginning. I bought the bloody thing so why
should I have to put up with them?" With that he strode back through to the
kitchen to fetch the cokes.

By the time he returned, the DVD had reached the main menu and he pressed
play on the remote control. James had already demolished about half of his
pizza, and was well into the potato. "Good job it's not a race or you'd
have finished before I'd even started!"

James laughed, but he still had a mouthful and started to choke, going red
in the face. Tom patted the boy's back and handed him his glass of
coke. James took a sip and swallowed a couple of times. "Sorry."

"You don't have to apologise every few minutes, James. I'm actually glad
for the company. It's nice to be able to share a meal and watch a DVD with
someone."

"Don't you have a wife or a girlfriend?"

"No, not at the moment. The mess this place is in just now, I couldn't cope
with the constant nagging you get when things aren't quite how a girl wants
them. I've learned to deal with one difficulty at a time and believe me;
you'll find out one day just how hard it is to keep a girl happy."

"Why?"

"Why what?"

"Why is it hard to keep a girl happy?"

It was Tom's turn to choke on his food. He wasn't quite expecting to have
to explain his innuendo, especially to a 12 year old he hardly knew, even
if the boy was sitting on his sofa almost naked. TOM! Stop thinking like
that. But Tom couldn't help himself. He want to turn and stare at every
part of James, slowly, taking him all in.  "Well, I'll explain later. Let's
just watch the movie for now."

"Ok."

And they did. When they had finished eating they put the trays onto the
coffee table and sat back.  It wasn't long, though, until James had moved
so that his head was resting against Tom's arm. Tom just prayed that James
wouldn't feel his pulse racing at the thought of flesh to flesh contact
with him. Slowly, James' head slipped lower and lower till it was resting
on Tom's lap and Tom was now worrying that James would feel his hard-on
through his trousers. As the boy had slid down to where his body was lying
full stretch along the sofa with his head in Tom's lap, the tee-shirt had
hitched up so that James' legs and part of his buttocks were now on
show. Tom couldn't stop himself, every few minutes glancing away from the
film to look at the perfectly smooth thighs and bum. Finally, James rolled
back towards the back of the sofa and the tee-shirt twisted up even further
revealing the boys penis. James seemed unaware that he was on show. His
penis was soft and fell at an angle over his balls.

Tom stared unashamedly now. To hell with it if the boy saw. It was almost 2
inches long and completely hairless, about the thickness of Tom's middle
finger. He couldn't believe what he was thinking. He wanted to touch
it. Ok; as a preadolescent he had experimented like everybody else; that
was just a phase that boys go through.  But, as a man wanting to touch a
boy, he knew that by society's standards that made him the worst kind of
monster imaginable. He wanted to run, but was frozen in place. What curse
had brought this boy to him? But then, what if society was wrong? He didn't
want to hurt this boy, he wanted to... to what? Have sex with him? Come on
Tom: get real. Wake up!

Just then Harry pointed his wand at Snape, throwing him across the room,
and James jumped further into Tom's lap, breaking his chain of
thought. Pettigrew was revealed and they took him out into the night where
Professor Lupin turned into a werewolf and James grabbed at Tom's arm,
holding it tight for security. His grip tightened as the Dementors swooped
down and tried to take Black's soul. Finally, when Sirius Black told Harry
that it was so unfair that he had spent so much time with Harry's parents,
but Harry so little, both Tom and James felt the emptiness that the loss of
their parents had left in their lives.  But here, now, they had each
other. Tom thought he heard a quiet sob come from James and laid a gentle
hand on the boy's shoulder. He squeezed it and then let his hand slide
through the boys golden hair. As the credits started, James rolled onto his
back and stared up at Tom.

"What will happen to me?"

Tom didn't have an answer that James would want to hear. "I honestly don't
know, but they'll be looking for you. I think for tonight, we just need to
rest and start thinking about those hard questions tomorrow. I'll get you
another duvet and you can sleep out here if that's ok.  Or, you can sleep
on a sofa in the lounge if you want more privacy."

James looked over at Tom's bed in the corner. "No, here will be fine."

Tom was grateful. He could see the boy from his bed. But he determined that
was as far as it was going to go. There was no law against thinking, or
looking: just DON'T TOUCH. He went and got the duvet, switched off the TV
and DVD, and turned to watch as James curled up in the duvet, using two of
the large square cushions as pillows. The he went over to his bed,
self-consciously peeled off his own clothes, except his briefs and slipped
under his own duvet. He stole a glance back over at James. James was
watching him. What was the boy thinking? Did 12 year olds have sexual
thoughts about men? Tom couldn't remember lusting after men when he was 12
so perhaps it was just wishful thinking. Soon James' heavy eyes gave in to
sleep. Tom heard the child's breathing slow and deepen. Eventually he fell
into a restless sleep.
