22 Mikey and the Health Club

By Matt Kendrick

I took another shower after my "jack along with Rhett session" from the
video he left for me. I was just getting dressed again when I got a text
that made me smile.

`which pic?'

The text was from Rhett.

`loved #30!' followed by he he.

Picture #30 was the one where he was on all fours facing away from the cam
but pushing back towards the camera so his rose opened up a little. Taking
a guy from behind in that position is my "wild animal fuck." If I want slow
and sensual, it is usually with the guy on his back and me on top so we can
kiss and so I can look in his eyes and watch his face. For some reason,
Rhett ignited the animal in me. Maybe it was his forwardness.

`noted' was his text back.

I went to my office to try and get some more work done this week. I had a
bunch of correspondences to answer, a few phone calls to make and some
meetings to schedule in San Francisco and Palo Alto followed by NYC. I had
been at it for about two hours and a half when Niki and Mislav came into my
office dressed respectably.

"Where are you two off to dressed so nicely?"

"We are meeting Coach Sturgess at school and he is going to introduce us to
a counselor and the athletic director so we can get started on transferring
in," Mislav explained, "And he is going to give us some Serra Island Water
Polo shirts too and some for our families to take home."

"Hang on a sec," I told them.  I got out my checkbook and wrote out a check
for $5,000 to the Islander Aquatic Foundation.

"Tell Coach I'd like two of the green Islander Water Polo t-shirts and one
of the white, collared polo shirts. I wear a large. Tell him if he needs
more money to call me."

The boys nodded and headed off to the high school. Even though I'd driven
them to the high school for practice, it really wasn't very far, less than
a mile actually, so an easy walk. The three schools for the island were all
in the middle of the island and all together so no one had more than a mile
walk to school from any direction, unless they lived on the Navy base. The
one exception was the kids who lived in Serra Cays, down the isthmus
towards Empire Beach.

Since I'd gotten a lot of work done and I had the house to myself for a bit
I decided it was time to check out Ryan's Mail.ru account and see if any of
his cam sessions with Rory, Julien and Daine were stored there.

I navigated to Ryan's cloud drive and looked for updated folders. It didn't
take long to find the ones I wanted. Ryan's software had captured both
sides of the video chats so I could see what he and his friends were doing
and saying and I could see and hear who they were talking to and they were
separate videos, but labeled the same except for `out' (which was him and
his friends) and `in' (which was the guy they were chatting with).

The first video was Ryan and Daine Taggert alone. Ryan and Daine weren't
shrinking violets and they hadn't come to Omegle on accident. There knew
what they were looking for, which was a little action. They played the
innocents pretty well, but were both naked in less than four minutes and
the older guy, an in shape guy in his mid 40's I'd say, had them showing
their goods before he'd show his. I think he was thinking this was too
easy, but if he'd been at it for a while he knew it could be pretty easy
sometimes.

Daine is tall and slender. I know he plays basketball at SI Middle School
and I'd guess him to be around 5'9" or so and not more than 135 pounds. He
has a small patch of brown pubic hair around a cock that looks to match
Ryan's 5 ½", but maybe a bit thinner. When the guy on the other end
asked what they were looking for Ryan shrugged and said they didn't know,
what did he want to see. The guy could hardly believe his good luck. He
asked them to jack off for him and he said he'd jack for them. I think he
was surprised even more when he asked them to jack each other and they did
so without any reluctance.

He decided to push his luck a little more and asked if they'd ever sucked a
cock before. Ryan played the innocent, said no, and asked the guy how to do
it. He talked Ryan through how to suck Daine's dick and then talked Daine
through the same while the guy jacked. Ryan switched back to sucking
Daine's cock and you could see Daine was getting close. Daine was gasping
as he shot a load down Ryan's throat.

"We gotta go, I hear my mom coming upstairs," Ryan said just before he shut
off the cam.

I knew Ryan lived in a one story house so I guess he was just tired of the
guy. I got my answer in the next video. This wasn't an Omegle video, Ryan
just switched his cam on to record. Daine was bitching at Ryan as the video
started.

"Dude, what did you do that for? I wanted you to fuck me!"  "Oh I am still
going to fuck you, but I was tired of that Barney," Ryan grinned.

"Yeah, but I wanted him to watch me get fucked! Then I could hear his voice
and pretend it was him," Daine whined.

"Dude, what's with you and old guys?" Ryan asked.

"It's not that I don't enjoy it when you and Rory fuck me, it is hot, but I
want to know what it is like with a man, a real man, who knows what he is
doing."

"You will dude, just chillax."

"You keep saying that, but when?" A frustrated Daine whined some more.

"Soon," Ryan sighed, "maybe before summer. Now do you want ME to fuck you
or not."

Daine looked suddenly shy, "you know I do."

Ryan positioned Daine on the edge of the bed so the camera had the best
angle. Daine was on his back holding his legs at the knees while Ryan lubed
and opened him up. The brown haired boy sighed and rolled his matching
brown eyes back in his head as Ryan probed him. When Ryan thought he was
ready he lined up his dick with Daine's waiting hole and slowly slid it
in. Daine moaned as Ryan entered him.

From this angle all you could see was Ryan's beautiful butt contract and
relax as he drilled into Daine and Ryan's balls as they flattened against
Daine's butt. But Ryan was aware of where the camera was so after a couple
of minutes he put Daine on all fours facing the cam as he nailed him from
behind. Daine's 5 ½" cut dick bounced up and down as Ryan slammed into
him. A few minutes there and Ryan put Daine on his back with his head off
the edge of the bed. It gave the camera a perfect look at Daine's cock and
at Ryan's cock as it entered Daine.

"Better start jackin'" Ryan grunted.

Daine obeyed and Ryan came up off his knees and started shoving his dick
even harder and faster down into Daine. Daine couldn't get enough of it.

"Oh fuck Ry guy, that's it, fuck me."

There was no noise for the next 45 seconds except the thwap sound as Ryan
slammed into Daine and Daine's low moans.

Ryan started to gurgle and then burst out with, `fucking hell, oh gawd' and
I knew he was making a deposit in the Bank of Daine. Daine for his part
started to shoot as well. The first spurt was so powerful it flew over his
head to the floor and the next three landed on his chest that was heaving
up and down.

When Ryan was spent he pulled out of Daine and shoulder rolled off the
bed. He walked over to the cam with a self satisfied grin on his face
turned off the cam.

There were twenty eight more vids in this folder for a total of thirty
one. I copied all of them onto my cloud drive because I knew I couldn't see
even a third of them today. I chose the Extra Large Icon view to see if I
could tell which ones I wanted to see right away. I eliminated the ten that
were the "older guy" half of the Omegle or Chatroulette videos, which left
eighteen I hadn't seen. A quick preview of each showed me that there were
five with all four guys in them (Ryan, Rory, Daine and Julien), three of
them with Rory, Ryan and Julien, four with Rory, Daine and Ryan, three with
Ryan and Julien and three more of Ryan and Daine. There didn't appear to be
any of Ryan and Rory alone.

It was Rory I was most curious about right now. I'd seen Daine hard in the
videos and Julien hard for real; that just left Rory. Since I'd already
seen Daine in action and guessed he was one of the natural bottoms that
Rory was talking about, I chose a video with Ryan, Rory and Julien in it.

This one was different from the first one I watched. There was no pretense
of innocence this time, Ryan, Rory and Julien acted exactly like what they
were, three horny boys pretty willing to do just about anything. They had
their shirts off pretty quickly and were down to their boxers in short
order too. Rory was wearing Joe Boxer boxers with penguins on them, Julien
had on boxer briefs and you could see he was hard already, while Ryan had
on Polo boxers with the bear in a suit on them.

They all turned away from the cam and dropped their shorts. They all had
great asses, which I knew already. Julien was in the middle and he turned
and looked down at Rory's dick and then Ryan's. Rory grinned and reached
over to grab Julien's dick and Julien grabbed Ryan's. After a few seconds
they turned around. They momentarily stopped jacking each other while they
turned so I froze the video so I could get a good look at Rory's hard
dick. He was definitely bigger than Ryan and Julien, probably around 6" at
least and much thicker. When I let the video roll again Julien couldn't get
his fingers all the way round it.

The guy that was watching asked if they'd sucked dick ever and Rory got
that cocky looks he gets and immediately went down on Julien, swallowing
him whole. After a couple of minutes of serious cock sucking, Julien
returned the favor on Rory. Then the boys got on Ryan's bed. Ryan lay back
on his elbows, his dick at full attention. Rory got in between Ryan's legs
and started to suck him like a pro. Behind Rory Julien was playing with
Rory's hole. I thought he was just playing with it, but no, he scooted up
on his knees and slipped his slender dick deep inside Rory.

After a couple of minutes of that, Rory rolled to his back and let Julien
fuck him like that. Ryan straddled Rory so Rory could suck his dick while
Ryan sucked Rory. They seemed to have forgotten all about the guy on
Chaturbate watching them. Julien blew his load in Rory early, maybe Julien
was the "inexperienced" one in Rory's `Goldilocks' analogy. Anyway, Julien
backed off and Ryan and Rory really went at it on their 69ing. In the
throes of passion Ryan rolled and pulled Rory over him. Rory was bobbing up
and down so fast his blonde mane flew all over the place. Just about the
time Ryan came, so did I imaging that the blonde mane was bobbing up and
down on me.

I resolved to watch all the videos at some point, but I'd seen what I
really wanted to see, which was Rory's hard cock and did he really
bottom. With both those questions firmly answered, I went back to work and
ordered some food from Mandarin Dynasty. I wasn't sure what the Croatian
boys had planned for lunch so I ordered five different entrees, with two
kinds of noodles and steamed rice. About thirty minutes later I heard the
front door open so I assumed it was Niki and Mislav returning and it
was. They came and found me in my office just as the door bell rang. A
quick check of my front door cam showed it was Nathan.  "Nathan, the door
is open, head to the kitchen and I'll meet you there," I said through the
speaker.

We all left my office and headed down to the kitchen. Nathan was unloading
the food. Niki, next to me, said `wow' under his breath. Yes, Nathan was
awfully good looking. He grinned as we approached.

"These must be your guests from Croatia."

When I looked surprised Nathan continued, "oh c'mon Tim. You know how small
Serra Island is."

And it was. There were probably a lot of people who knew I had foreign
house guests.

Niki cleared his throat.

"Oh yeah, Nathan Roberts, this is Nikola and Mislav; boys, this is my
friend Nathan. I don't think you got to meet him last time he delivered
food here, you boys were busy in the pool still."

Both boys shook his hand and exchanged a few words of greeting.

"If we had known you had such a cute delivery man Tim, we would have gotten
out of the pool sooner," Mislav offered.

Nathan blushed at the compliment.

"Are you working tonight Nathan?"

"No, I'm just helping my aunt at lunch today. My cousin delivers tonight."

"I am having a few guys over tonight for an Italian dinner, we'd love to
have you join us."

"Yes, we'd love to," reaffirmed a grinning Niki, looking like a hungry
Malay tiger.

Nathan blushed again, but accepted the invitation. Niki and Mislav went to
get out of their dressier clothes. They came back dressed in nothing. I
just smiled. I was going to miss them when they went home Sunday.

I went back to work after lunch and the boys amused themselves with videos
games using the TVs on the lanai. Christian and Mikey came over right after
school and they all disappeared into the back of the house. The other
guests for the Italian dinner started to show up around 5PM. Blake and
Tanner, the volleyball players from Cabrillo Cove were the first to show
up. Then the Henderson brothers and the Zahl brothers showed up quickly
followed by the cross county boys Josh, Ethan and Hunter.  The wrestlers,
Matt, Drew, Zac and Cade all came together just as Primavera delivered the
food. I had ordered twenty trays of main courses, salads and appetizers and
I figured I had enough for the thirty or so boys I expected to show up or
straggle in during the night.

When Nathan showed up Niki grabbed him and escorted him over to where he
and Mislav were seated. Nathan was in between the two Croatians looking
like the turkey on Thanksgiving day. When everyone had eaten their fill I
invited everyone downstairs to the movie room to watch "The Hobbit: The
Desolation of Smaug". The movie room had a capacity of twenty people maybe
and we had at least thirty, but I didn't think anyone was going to complain
about coziness and no one did. Some of the couples that had formed from the
group snuggled up and even those who weren't couples got a little snuggling
in. I don't think there was too much hanky panky that occurred, but I'm not
so naive as to believe that there was more than one climax that occurred in
the theater that night, and not on the big screen.

After the movie we dismissed to great room and the boys dug out the
desserts that Primavera left with milk and other drinks. I was bushed so I
excused myself and headed off to bed. I slept like a log that night and was
grateful I didn't have any visitors. In the morning I was up early and got
a good swim in before fixing myself some coffee and reading my Wall Street
Journal. I let the Croatians sleep until around 9AM when I went back to
their room to rouse them since we were having guests for a barbeque
starting around 11:30AM.

I know I shouldn't have been surprised, and I wasn't really, but there in
the queen bed were three bodies. Mislav and Nikola were bookending
Nathan. I gently shook the three of them awake. Nathan looked embarrassed,
especially when Niki threw off the covers and revealed that they were all
naked, but I don't know why since it wasn't like I hadn't seen him naked
before.

"You guys can shower in my bathroom, there is more room there. I am going
to start breakfast."

I was slicing some fruit when an embarrassed looking Nathan showed up in
the kitchen in a bathrobe.

"I hope you don't mind Tim."

"Mind what?" I asked him, "spending the night with two guys who wanted to
spend it with you? I'm thrilled you got to have some fun and I am sure they
did too."

"I know," he sighed, "it just feels like getting caught by your mom jacking
off."

I laughed at the analogy, "unlike your mom I would love to catch you
jacking off and really, don't think twice about this."

Nikola and Mislav showed up in the kitchen in robes too and the four of us
just enjoyed a pleasant breakfast after that. I cleaned up the kitchen
while they went to get dressed. Niki and Mislav appeared in their new
Islander Water Polo t-shirts and shorts and Nathan had on the same clothes
he had last night so he excused himself to head home. The boys helped me
get food ready for today's cookout.

The cookout wasn't going to be a big deal, burgers and hot dogs, green
salad, macaroni and potato salads and assorted desserts with ice cream, but
it did take a little organizing. I'd invited the entire 16 and under water
polo team that the boys had been practicing with and their families and
Christian and Mikey would be here too.

People started showing up around 11AM and I fired up the outside grills
around 11:45. There were kids in the pool and Clay and Miles had
volunteered to watch the pool; there were some kids playing video games, a
couple were shooting baskets and the adults were all socializing. I noticed
that Rhett McClure was paling around with Christian and Mikey and he hadn't
said much more than `hi' to me. Maybe he was already over me, kids that age
can really run hot and cold.

The food was ready, but there wasn't a big rush, people just drifted over
when they saw the small line drop and got their food and found a quiet spot
to eat. I was with the parents group when Mikey, Rhett and Christian came
over and announced they were going to the beach for awhile.

"No swimming for an hour," Rhett's mom called after him.

I excused myself to replenish the salads, which had run low. I had just
finished putting them out when I got a strange text from Mikey.

"Meet me in the Blue Room NOW!"

The "blue room" was what the guys called my fifth bedroom. It was all the
way at the end of the hall and kind of tucked in behind my library. The
text was strange because not ten minutes ago he was heading to the beach.

I headed down the hall and made the left turn into the little alcove where
the door to the blue room was. I opened the door and went in. The lights
were down low, but not so low that I couldn't see and what I saw was a
naked Rhett McClure on the bed nearest me, with his back to me in a Picture
#30 pose. That meant he was on all fours and leaning back towards me. I
instinctively closed the door and quickly locked it.

"I can guess who set this up," I sighed.

This had Mikey's fingerprints all over it. There is a back door in this
part of the house and accessible only using a code, which both Mikey and
Christian knew. Rhett's giggle all but confirmed my suspicions.

"Rhett, your parents are just down the hall," I reasoned.

"I know," he giggled again, "that makes it all that much hotter.

While my mind is screaming this is a terrible idea, my dick is agreeing
with the idea that that makes it hotter.

"They'll miss me at the party," was my next rationalization.

"Not for 15 or 20 minutes," the demon on the bed said as he shook his tail.

My dick kept agreeing with the demon, because it kept getting harder.

"C'mon, I'm even ready. I loosened up with one of your toys already."

I did see one of my toys from the drawer in my bedroom and a bottle of lube
on the nightstand. My rational mind was losing the battle to the little
head. Rhett came off the bed to where I was and lifted my shirt off me. I
also didn't object when he pulled on the drawstring of my board shorts and
ripped open the Velcro fly, releasing my cock that was almost entirely
erect. He pushed the shorts off my hips, they fell to the floor and I
stepped out of them.

Rhett seemed slightly mesmerized by my hard cock. He took it in one hand
and rubbed my chest with his other hand.

"I knew you'd be pretty big," he said barely above a whisper. "I've never
seen... touched... a dick this big for real. Christian is almost as long,
but not nearly as thick."

So my adoptive little brother, and I assume his partner in crime, Mikey,
have been entertaining Rhett. I wonder if he knew Clay had too? Or maybe
all four of them? I'd been so busy the last month I'd hadn't looked at
Mikey's cloud drive recently.

"Before you fuck me, I want to suck you a little," Rhett said as he dropped
to his knees and took me in his mouth.

"Whatever you want but remember it is eating into your 15 minutes."

"20," he countered, pulling his mouth off my dick just long enough to say
it.

He swallowed me expertly and knew what buttons to push. He was getting me
worked up pretty good to the point I was anxious to fuck him now, but I
want to sample other parts too first. I pulled back out of his mouth and
Rhett started to protest until I told him to get on the bed. He eagerly
complied and got back in the #30 position.

"Not quite yet," I told the eager teen, "I want a little taste too."

I rolled him onto his back took his dick into my mouth just like he had for
me, all the way to the root. My nose nestled in his dirty blonde pubic
hairs and Rhett moaned in pleasure. I sucked him slowly for a minute or
two, just demonstrating a variety of techniques for him, but not enough to
get him close. Then I lifted his legs, exposing his pucker so I could
explore it too. It smelled of chlorine and peppermint from the pool and
lube he'd used with the rubber toy. I licked and probed him deeply which
got a louder moan out of him. As much as I would have like to have spent 20
minutes here, I really did want to fuck him in the worst way now.

"Okay Rhett, it is time for #30."

Rhett didn't need to be told twice and scrambled into the position facing
the headboard.

"No, face the sliding glass doors."

When he looked puzzled as to why, I explained.

"Unless mice giggle, I don't think we are alone. They at least deserve a
good show."

The closet door swung open and Mikey and Christian stepped out, dressed as
they had been when they "left for the beach."

"I told you you were too loud," Christian admonished Mikey.

Mikey just shrugged, "get busy you two."

I didn't really need a lot of encouragement, I was way keyed up. But even
though this was my wild fuck position, it was my first time with Rhett and
he admitted he hadn't seen a dick as big as mine for real. I didn't even
know if this was his first time or not, but I was assuming it wasn't.

"How do you want it Rhett bud," I asked gently.

"Go slow at first, but once I've adjusted, I'll tell you to go and then you
can go fast and hard."

I got lubed up and guided my cock into Rhett's waiting O-ring. The head
slipped in past the ring and I felt Rhett push back with his sphincter
muscles so I knew then this wasn't his first rodeo. The rest of my shaft
slipped all the way in and Rhett squirmed a little to get comfortable. Then
I started a slow undulation in and out of him. After a couple of minutes,
Rhett gave the words to open up.

Rhett has an absolutely beautiful ass and I was captivated watching my cock
drive deep in his furrow. I gripped his hip bones first and then his
shoulders as I drove faster, harder and deeper.

Mikey and Christian had shed their clothes and lain on the bed next to
us. Mikey was fucking Christian, who was on his back, smiling up at Rhett
and me. I noticed that Mikey was bigger than I remembered him, but then it
had been several months since he and I last actually hooked up. Christian
looked like he was in ecstasy and that was when I decided to flip over
Rhett. I wanted to see his face too.

I stopped, told Rhett what I wanted and he happily switched position. He
was lying beside Christian now and I could see his expressions as I went
back to pumping. We had about 6 minutes left in my self imposed time limit
of 20 minutes according to clock on the wall so I told Rhett he'd better
get ready to shoot if he had plans to because I was going to in the next
few minutes.

He grabbed the bottle of lube that was next to Christian, put on a generous
dollop and started to stroke. I lifted his legs even higher to be able to
drive even deeper. He moaned as I banged on his prostate with the head of
my cock and stroked even faster. He had a gorgeous face and full lips so I
couldn't resist leaning forward to kiss him. Rhett put his left hand around
my neck and continued to stroke with his right. I could tell by his
breathing he was getting close to orgasm so I sped up even more.

Rhett broke the kiss to say, "cumming" just before the eruption started. He
gasped, moaned and gasped again as the rush of semen out of his cock
exploded with violent busts that covered his chest. I was right behind him,
emptying myself into him. He pulled me back down into a kiss that was
insistent yet sensuous. I stopped pumping since I was empty, but I didn't
pull out and other than kissing me, Rhett made no movement either in that
direction.

I heard Mikey and Christian experiencing their own climaxes, but my eyes
were closed as I tongue wrestled with Rhett. We kissed for maybe a minute
or two past the pinnacle.

"Oh my gawd Tim, that was better than the wildest fantasy I ever had of
what this would be like."

"I'm glad you enjoyed it. I thought it was pretty amazing too."

"But," I continued, "I have a house full of guests, including your parents
and brother, that I need to get to before they miss me and you three need
to go get sandy before you return."  "This was a good beginning though,
right?" Rhett wanted to know.

Before I could answer, Mikey did for me, "oh yeah, a good beginning. Tim
won't be happy until you've topped him."

It was true, it just bothered me that Mikey knew me so well.

"Yes," I sighed, "a good beginning. We need two to three hours for more
than just a beginning."

Rhett was pleased with the answer so he didn't object when I got off him
and grabbed a towel to clean myself up. I wiped off the sweat, lube and cum
off myself and hoped I didn't have any "hair gel" from Rhett on me
anyplace. I got dressed, leaned over to kiss Rhett once more, then
Christian and Mikey, and left the three naked middle schoolers on the
bed. Stepping into the alcove let me compose a little before heading down
the hallway since no one could see me had they been in the hall.

No one was in the hall when I stepped out from the alcove, but even so I
went into my bedroom and crossed under the lanai to the pool house and went
up the stairs into the pool house so I could exit from there and mingle. I
hoped that would serve to confuse anyone who'd missed my absence.

I wandered back to the grill area to grab a burger, as I was suddenly
ravenous. I chit chatted a few of the parents and no one seemed to have
missed me. I wandered over to the basketball court and then over to the
kitchen to further the impression that I was all over the place so it
wouldn't seem odd I was gone for any length of time. The hotness of being
with Rhett while his parents were in the house seemed like a worse idea
post coitus than it was in the throes of lust. I had small measures of
guilt, but not huge ones since Rhett seemed pretty sure of what he wanted
and pretty happy with the result. I'd follow up with Mikey later to see how
he felt now.

About 40 minutes later Mikey, Christian and Rhett reappeared in the
backyard, appropriately sandy and wet. When Rhett's mother saw him she
looked upset.

"Rhett Tyler McClure, have you been doing something you shouldn't?"

"Not at all," he smiled, with an almost too big grin, "I've been an angel."

"Then why are you wet and your hair is wet? I told you no swimming for an
hour."

"Chris, Mike and I took a shower."

I am not sure she believed him, but I was sure the little demon turned
angel was telling the exact truth that they had showered and I bet I knew
where.

Sunday morning it was time to take my Croatian boys back to LAX for their
long flight home. Miles and Clay came over to say goodbye, and Mikey and
Christian again rode with me. It had been an eventful week for the boys,
all of them. It was hard to believe it was only nine days ago that the four
of them met. You would have thought they'd been lifelong friends. I
suspected that in the end, they would be.

On the long ride back to Serra Island after getting Mislav and Nikola
safely off Mikey and Christian filled me in on the 411 on Rhett and all the
latest happenings. Rhett came out to Christian as gay a couple of months
ago and had been quietly busy in the middle school and high school circle
since then. Rhett never brought up Clay so neither did Mikey or Christian
so they had no idea if Rhett knew Clay was gay or bi.

"And how did my name come up in all of this?" I asked as I told them about
the pictures and video that Rhett had left me.

"Oh that was Mike's idea on how Rhett could get your attention," Christian
told me, "Rhett brought your name up first. He knew you were gay, knew you
knew us and one time when I was at his house he showed me a secret stash of
pictures of you on his computer."

When I started to protest Mikey stopped me.

"No, not that kind. Pictures from the Internet; you in wrestling singlets,
you with no shirt on, you in a tuxedo...  stuff like that from the
Internet. When he asked if I thought a guy like you would ever go for a guy
like him...  well I gave him a few ideas. The pictures was just
one. Frankly I'd was impressed he did that one with his parents two rooms
away."

"Yes," I mused, "there seems to be a bit of an adventuresome nature to
Rhett. Let's hope it doesn't get any of us in trouble."

"I set him up on a cloud drive like you did for me and moved all his porn
and even his just regular hot guy stuff that was g-rated over there then
erased and scrubbed his phone, iPad and iBook."

"You are getting to be a little tech wizard," I told him.

The rest of the trip was pretty uneventful and I dropped the boys at my
parent's house so they could do the homework they'd been delaying all
weekend. When I got back to my place it seemed so quiet and dead. I really
missed my house guests. I felt like a parent whose kids had just left for
college.

I spent what was left of the afternoon packing for my trip to San Francisco
and Silicon Valley, catching up on emails and then reading a little, but it
was so quiet it was almost distracting. I sent a text to my friend Tim
Price, who lived in San Francisco and told him to call me if he wasn't
busy. A minute later my phone rang.

"Tim," I answered, "how are you?"

"Great, and what is new with you, Tim the second?"

Tim always teased me that since he was older and he'd been `Tim' longer, I
had to be `Tim, the second.' He had been a great friend to me over the
years though. Tim was gay and had played water polo at Stanford, but before
I got there. When I came out in my senior year at Stanford he really was a
rock for me. He told me how much he'd admired me for doing what he didn't
have the balls to do while he was still in college.

The friendship bloomed, we had our fling as lovers in that summer of 2004
and when that fizzled, a great friendship remained. Tim was a senior
executive at Cisco and it was with his help that I got my first mergers &
acquisitions deal, my first three actually, since Cisco was trying to buy
the world at that time. It put me on the map, especially in the technology
world and that had led to my current success.

"I am coming up to San Francisco, Palo Alto and San Jose for a few days and
I wanted to see if you and Marco had time for dinner?"

Marco was a smoking hot Italian American that Tim started dating at a young
age and they'd stayed together. After Marco graduated from Stanford Tim
helped him open a restaurant that Marco was the executive chef in and then
Tim had bought a small winery just outside St. Helena in the Napa Valley
and Marco had opened a second restaurant there. They got married in 2012
when gay marriage was made legal in California and I had been one of Tim's
groomsmen. It was a huge highlight for me.

"We can eat at Fredo's Palazzo and Marco can join us here and there. He
only cooks himself three nights a week and supervises two or three
nights. He takes off Sunday from the restaurant so he can cook for the
whole family."

Cooking for the `whole family' must be a huge task because not only does
Marco have six brothers and sisters and their spouses and kids, his mother
and grandmother, but Tim had quite an extended family of gay teens and
former teens that he had befriended and helped along over the years.

"How is the restaurant doing?"

"Better than he could have ever hoped; he just wanted a nice, neighborhood
Italian restaurant to honor his family's roots, but with modern techniques
combined with the classic. Now there are rumors he impressed the Michelin
judges last year and could earn a Michelin star in the 2015 list."

"You must be proud of him."

"You have no idea, I just love him more every day. "

The restaurant was a play on words, Fredo Palazzo was Marco's now deceased
grandfather, but translated was also `Fred's Palace'. It was very much a
family affair. His mother, Teresa, was a well off widow, but worked the
front of the house five nights a week and when Teresa was there, so was
Fredo's widow, Maria, who at 86 was going strong. Marco's brother Anthony
was also a chef and partner, sister Emily was sous and pastry chef and when
the younger kids weren't in school they were waiting or bussing tables. I
was looking forward to my trip to see them all again.

Tim gave me his brother-in-law David's number in Santa Clara since I was
going to be down in San Jose. He was going to the university there, where
he was a freshman. I promised him I'd get David away from dorm food for a
night and some decent food in him. I was happy to do it. I'd known David
since he was a precocious 10 year old and I knew he'd enjoy a giant steak
from Original Joe's in San Jose. I was also curious to hear where his
orientation was these days. He'd had a cute crush boyfriend when he was
younger, but you never know at that age how things might turn out.

After Tim and I hung up I was contemplating what I was going to do for
dinner when I got a text that cheered me up.

`home. alone.hungry'

It was Hunter, my opera date and #1 crush. I was having fun, maybe too
much, with the young set, but Hunter was one I could really see a future
with.

`c'mon over.bring a toothbrush'

Ten minutes later my doorbell rang. Rather than my usual remote opening and
talking through the speakers, I walked to the front door and opened
it. That just seemed more personal .

There was cute, red headed Hunter looking cute as hell in a tank top and
shorts with flip flops. A typical Serra Island kid in other words. I
invited him in and he gave me a light sensual kiss. Even though Hunter, a
senior, at 5'6" and 120, is actually smaller than Rhett, an 8th grader,
Hunter exudes this mature, manly quality. I'd love to put the steak back in
the frig for an hour or two and just spend time getting reacquainted.

"I'll go put my bag in the bedroom," he grins at me.

I think he has the same idea as I do.

I suppose the steaks will be fine on the counter for an hour or so.
