Date: Thu, 22 Nov 2001 22:18:08 -0800 From: Robert Just Robert <kewl_dad_1@msn.com> Subject: Poindexter Files Chapter Five Poindexter Files Chapter Six "The Meeting" Mark had never been so nervous in all his life as he drove the short distance to the hospital. His mind buzzed with questions. What would he say to Luke. What if Luke didn't want to see him? What if Luke's mom threw him out, fearing he was some pervert after her son. The only thing he knew for certain was that he had to see Luke, had to try to help him no matter how much grief or risk he must endure. He had rehearsed in his mind a thousand times what he would say, but it all sounded shallow and stupid as he played it back again. He wished he felt as at ease in person as he did on line. Chatting on line came easy for him. On line he could hide from the other person, and not have to show his true feelings. The only other person, besides Don, that Mark had ever been comfortable with was Jimmy, his first love. He smiled when he thought of Don. Don had made him love again, and even now was helping him to meet Luke. He felt much better about meeting Luke by the time he pulled into the parking garage at St. Joseph's Hospital. *************************************************** Luke was feeling much better today,and his speech had returned just as the doctor had predicted. He had taken a shower earlier and was using the bathroom now instead of the bed pan. He had eaten a light lunch (if you can call hospital food lunch) and was anxious for Mark to visit. Don was relieved to find that the boy could speak today and had filled him in on all that he had told Mark. Luke was very excited when he told him Mark would be visiting. Because Luke's condition had improved so greatly his mother had gone home for the rest of day, promising to come back in the evening. Luke didn't mention Mark's visit. He couldn't think of exactly how to explain to his mother that this man he had met on line was coming to visit him. When he thought about it he could see how some people would think it was dangerous or stupid, but Luke felt like he knew Mark despite the fact that they had only chatted on line, and for such a short time. He knew his father wouldn't be visiting him, and he was very lonely right now. Don had been great and he could see why Mark would like him in that special way. Deep inside Luke wanted to be liked in that special way, but it would take time for him to recognize that need. Luke's thoughts were interrupted by a soft tap at his door. It was Don and with him was a man. The man was older than Don, but not too much Luke thought. He was attractive and muscular and had a handsome face. He was smiling nervously as Don led him over to Luke and introduced him. "Luke this is Mark. Mark meet Luke." Don said smiling broadly. Mark instinctively stuck out his hand for Luke to shake and the boy took it timidly. Mark felt the warmth and softness of the boy's skin as he held his small hand gently. Luke smiled up at Mark and wondered if he was a disappointment to the man. He suddenly felt small and insignificant and he smiled nervously. "Hi, Luke." Mark said as he continued to hold the boy's hand. "You really scared me buddy. I was afraid I wouldn't get a chance to meet you." Luke felt the concern in Mark's voice and the tenderness in his eyes. He felt immediately at ease. His smile softened, but he turned his eyes down nervously. "Sorry if I made you worry. I...." Luke found it hard to explain. "It's okay , son. You can tell me as much or as little as you want. I am just here to help. If you want to talk about it I'll do my best to help. But, if you don't feel like talking, that's cool too." Mark said trying to put Luke at ease. "Hey guys, I'm gonna leave you two alone. I have some rounds to make and I'll peek back in later." Don said excusing himself. "I'll catch you later tiger." He said smiling at Luke. "Bye Don. Uh...thanks." Luke said blushing. "You are so welcome, buddy. Later guys." Don said leaving suddenly. Mark pulled up a chair and scooted it close to Luke's bed. He smiled at Luke and Luke smiled nervously back. The silence hung heavy on them both until Luke finally spoke. His voice was low and almost devoid of emotion as he spelled out what had taken place in his room. He told Mark everything, not leaving out even one moment of his pleasure or his pain. Mark felt the tears well up in his eyes and he wanted so badly to reach out and hold Luke and comfort him. But, he held back not knowing how the boy would respond to physical contact. He tried to soothe Luke with his words, but Luke had already made up his mind that the situation was hopeless. "Come on buddy, I know it seems bad right now, but maybe your dad will just forget all about it once you get better." Mark offered trying to sound positive despite the fact that he himself did not believe it. "He hates me, Mark. He didn't even come to the hospital. If he tells mom she will hate me too, then I'll be all alone." Luke said on the verge of tears. "Aww, come on son. Your mom has been here with you since they brought you in. Do you really think she would leave you now? She is your mom, she loves you a lot. You told me how she treats you, how she protects you. I think you are underestimating her love for you." Mark said feeling that at least the boy could count on his mom. "Yeah, I guess." Luke said half-heartedly. "Mark what am I gonna do? I can't face my dad again. He.....well...you should have seen how he looked at me." Luke said as he relived the whole event over again in his mind. Mark could see the pain in his face as the events rushed back into his head. Suddenly the boy broke down and began sobbing uncontrollably. This time Mark did not hesitate, he reached out and took the frail young boy in his arms and was relieved when he did not pull away. Luke melted into Mark and continued to sob, although quietly now. He felt Mark rub his back and pull him into his strong arms and for awhile he forget all about how sad he felt. He wished his father would hold him that way, but he could never remember that happening. Even when he was a small child, his father had been aloof, the most affection he had ever shown was an occasional pat on the head. Luke craved those pats on the head and when they finally all but disappeared he wondered what he had done wrong. Mark felt the boy's sobs rack his small body and his heart filled with anger at the boy's father. How could any man call himself a man and treat his own flesh and blood like that. He wanted to punish the man, but finally decided that the man was already punishing himself by not letting this boy into his life. His anger turned to pity as he thought about how pathetic the man must be. He wished he could take Luke away from all the pain and show him the love that he so needed. But all he could do at the moment was comfort the boy and try to make things better while his body and mind mended. Luke felt better now, it was as if Mark had taken all his pain away with his touch. He had never felt such an instant liking of anyone in his young life. He felt like he could tell Mark anything and he would make any trouble go away. But deep inside he knew not even Mark could make his present troubles go away. It would take time, but if Mark was there to help him, he believed he could get through it. His crying had all but stopped now but he did not want Mark to stop holding him. He reached his small arms around Mark's neck and hugged him appreciatively. Their eyes met and Luke managed a little smile. "Thank you for coming here." Luke began softy. "You really care about me, don't you?" Luke said suddenly aware of the oblivious. `Yes, I care." Mark stated simply. "If I could make all your tears and pain go away I would do it in a heart beat. But, there is something I can do. I can be the one you can come to, even if it's only on line and tell me anything and I will try to help in whatever way I can." Mark said looking deeply into the boy's eyes. Luke smiled a little more convincingly now and before he could think about it he leaned in and kissed Mark sweetly on the face. Mark blushed but, hugged the boy closer and rubbed his back affectionately. He wanted to hold the boy forever and protect him from the world, but he would settle for this moment. Presently Mark broke their hug and helped Luke settle back into bed. The boy looked worn out and Mark suggested he rest. Luke didn't want to rest but suddenly he felt very tired. He was afraid if he slept that he would wake up and find Mark gone. But, despite his fears and misgivings he found he was drifting off. The last thing he remembered was Mark stroking his hair as he began to drift off to sleep. *************************************************** Across town Luke's mom angrily confronted her husband as he sat watching TV. He looked up long enough to grunt at her and tell her he was busy. She felt her face flush red and she stepped between him and the TV. "What the hell is your problem?" Her husband ask in a mean voice. "Your son. That is the problem." She said fighting back tears. "Oh, so you know about the little faggot then." He said hoping she would get out of his way. "What? How can you talk about your son that way. He is laying up there in that hospital room and you haven't even bothered to so much as ask how he is. He could be dead for all you know." She said shaking with anger. "Well? Is he dead. Cause as far as I'm concerned he might as well be, damned queer. I told you there was something wrong with him, now you know what." He said as if his words were a basic truth. "What the hell are you talking about? What happened last night. Did you have something to do with this. If I find out you laid a hand on my son, I will kill you with my bare hands." She said moving closer. Her husband had never seen her behave like this before. He usually had her under his control and it angered him to think that she had suddenly turned on him. "I'll tell you what happened to your precious little Luke. I caught the little fag, looking at gay stuff on the internet. I told you he was up to no good on that damn computer. But, it don't matter, faggots find each other whether they have a computer or not. The little shit couldn't stand it when I told him I didn't want to have nothing to do with his faggot ass anymore. I never laid a hand on the pussy. I don't want to ever touch him again. And if you know what's good for you, you won't want to either." Luke's mom stood in shock, not at the revelation that her son might be curious or even gay, she had long ago decided that that might be the case, but rather at the revelation that the man she married was someone she didn't want to be around any more. She accepted the fact and acted on it immediately. Without a word she went upstairs and packed a few things and left. Her husband continued to watch TV and told himself that she would come running back. That was the last time he saw his wife until the divorce hearing six months later. Luke's mom instinctively drove to her parents home. She had always been welcomed there with open arms, as had Luke. Even though her parents did not approve of her choice in husbands they had always made all of them feel welcome. They were upset about Luke, but actually relieved that their daughter had finally seen the true nature of her husband. Her father contacted the family lawyer and the next day, papers were filed to begin the divorce. Luke's mom felt relief and remorse, but she knew that she was making the right decision. Luke would be her world now, and when he was released he would come here to a house filled with love. She felt suddenly exhausted and decided to take a short nap before returning to the hospital. *************************************************** Mark watched the sleeping boy for some time before slipping out to find a soda machine. He hated the idea of leaving him alone, but told himself he would be back before he awoke. He got lost on the way back but fortunately ran into Don on his way back. "Hey babe." Don said making sure no one was in ear shot. "Hey. God, Don I can't thank you enough for all you have done." Mark said squeezing his arm gently not daring to risk more in a public place. "Hey, don't thank me. It's all part of sharing our lives. Anyway I really didn't do much, his mom left on her own. I think she was gonna go kick dad's ass." He said chuckling. "Wish I could help." Mark said with a gleam in his eye. "You couldn't hurt a fly and you know it." Don said chuckling. Mark blushed wondering how Don had come to know him so well in such a short time. Then he remembered he was lost and allowed Don to lead him back to Luke's room. They found Luke still sleeping peacefully but he awoke soon after they entered his room. "Hi sleepy head." Mark said smiling down at the boy. He felt the need to touch the boy, to feel his soft warm skin again, but he didn't want to overstep his bounds. Luke reached his hand out and Mark took it instinctively. He squeezed it gently and Luke smiled through sleepy eyes. Don took all of this in and smiled. He could see that the two had become quite comfortable with each other since he had left them earlier. He knew how Luke felt, Mark had a calming effect on everyone he came into contact with, and you just couldn't help but like him. A lesser person might have been jealous of the attention Mark was showing for this boy, but Don on the other hand felt closer to Mark. He had seen a side of Mark that had only been hinted at before and he felt the pangs of affection deepening as he watched Mark interact with the boy. Mark felt lucky to have Don by his side through all this, he was convinced he could never have made it on his own. Luke didn't try to reason why Mark should care or why he would come here to see him, he just knew that for the first time in his life he felt important. He had always believed that he was insignificant and that what happened to him was out of his control. Now he had begun to believe that maybe he had some choices after all. He made a commitment to face his father one more time , when he was better, and tell him all the things he had felt all these years. He had no idea that even as he made that commitment, his mother was ending her life with his father. Right now all he could think about was how good it felt to be with someone who understood him and who cared. He smiled to himself, and Mark caught the expression as it spread across his face. "You seem much better, you know you are really cute when you smile." Mark said without thinking. Luke blushed and smiled even wider and Mark returned his smile. Luke liked it when Mark smiled at him. He thought Mark was handsome. He had never really thought of a man in those terms before, but handsome is the word that came to his mind when he looked at Mark. Don was cute, he thought to himself, but there was something about Mark's looks that touched something deep inside him. He felt strange having these feelings but, he had come to accept strange feelings as normal for himself lately. He wondered if his mother would understand how he felt about Mark, then decided she would not. He reasoned it was better to keep Mark his little secret for now. He had a sudden fear that she would return any moment and find them holding hands and react as his father had. He gently pulled his hand away and pretended he needed his hand to scratch. Mark relaxed and let his own hand move back to his side, suddenly feeling a loss, but not wanting the boy to feel pressured. "Mark." Luke began. "Yeah, buddy?" "Uhh..my mom...might be back pretty soon." Luke began. "Yeah, I guess I should go. I don't want to cause any problems." Mark said trying not to sound hurt. "No, its cool. I just....." Luke said not wanting to hurt Mark's feelings. "I understand. We can visit tomorrow if you want. Just let me know, okay. Tell Don or call me if you want. I'll give you one of my business cards. Luke accepted, thinking that is his mother found the card he could say it was just computer stuff that he was interested in. She had given up long ago trying to understand computers or her son's interest in them. They said their good byes and Mark risked a quick kiss on the forehead and Luke accepted it openly hugging Mark's neck before he left. Mark left with a warm feeing but a sudden loss filled him as he found Don, whose shift had long since ended, and headed home. They chatted about Luke and Mark shared Luke's secret with Don. Don reacted with sympathy for Luke and anger for his father, much as Mark had expected. They were certainly on the same page when it came to Luke, and Mark was glad he had someone to share with. He was looking forward to a quiet evening with Don and a wild time in bed to relieve some of his tension. "I hope you are well rested." Mark said wickedly to Don. "Bring it on old man, I can out last you any day." He teased. "We'll see about that my young friend. I am feeling very horny this evening." Mark chuckled. "Nice, let's just skip dinner then. I think I'd like a nice tube steak instead." He laughed. The empty feeling that Mark had felt after leaving Luke had given way to the promise of love with his mate. He could feel his cock beginning to swell with excitement as Don rubbed his leg teasingly. Mark stepped on the gas and they were home in record time. A trail of clothes led the way to the bedroom where Mark and Don were locked in each other's embrace. They kissed passionately as their hands roamed each others body. Mark felt an intensity, a need that burned inside his body. He broke the kiss an slid down to take Don's cock in his eager mouth. Don sighed in pleasure as the day's problems and weariness faded away at Mark's able hands and mouth. He could feel his impending orgasm building with a magnitude that he had never felt before. He felt him self tense and seconds later he blasted a load of white hot cum into his lover's mouth. Mark gobbled it down greedily and squeezed his balls gently attempting to milk him dry. Once more he fired off his love round and then a third time as Mark moaned his approval. He continued to hold Don's throbbing cock in his mouth as it dribbled and when he was satisfied that he had all of his lover's load he moved up beside him and placed a sloppy kiss on his lips. "Mmmmmmmm" Don mumbled. "Fuck me." He added in a whisper. Mark needed no further invitation as he fumbled in the drawer for a condom and the lube. "No." Don said suddenly. "No rubber. I'm clean and you're clean and we are gonna stay that way. I want to feel you cum inside me, please." He begged. Mark, had never barebacked with anyone, but love has a funny way of making people do things they ordinarily wouldn't. He knew he was clean and he trusted Don, and before he could reason why he should not, he did as Don ask. He could not believe how good Don's ass felt on his bare flesh. It took real concentration not to cum as soon as he entered. He felt the tight ass ring squeezing his cock in perfect rhythm and the velvety softness of his gut. He found Don's prostate and Don moaned in ecstasy. "Oh, gawwd...yes. Fuck me hard baby. Ride me like a bull." Don cried out. "Gawwd your ass feels so fucking hot. I never knew it could feel this good bareback. Mark was thrusting in an out, his cock withdrawing almost to the entrance before plunging back in and touching Don's sensitive spot. Don moaned appreciatively with each thrust and his hard cock was oozing again ready to fire a second time without him even touching it. Suddenly Mark cried out and Don felt a sudden gush of hot liquid hit his prostate and he began erupting between their sweat covered bodies. Don pulled his legs up higher and bucked up forcing Mark even deeper and the intensity of the action nearly made him come unglued. They were both gasping for air and moaning gibberish as they fired load after load of hot creamy cum. So much cum filled Don's ass that it leaked out and ran onto the sheets beneath them. Mark stayed inside long after his cock had expelled the last drop of his pent up load. His cock refused to go soft and after resting a moment more, he began fucking again with less intensity, but with the same desire. Don felt his own cock stiffen again but wanted a go at Mark's tight ass so tried to hold back a third orgasm. It was not easy with Mark pounding his ass and rubbing his need deep inside, but Mark was moving so fast now that he knew his impending orgasm was close. He felt him fire off a weak round before he collapsed on top of him crushing his lips against his in a passionate kiss. Don roughly returned the kiss and whispered his intent into Mark's ear. Mark smiled lustily and assumed the position, his legs high and his ass open for Don's invasion. Don used their own loads for lubrication and was quickly balls-deep in Mark's tender ass. He too had never barebacked and he had waited all his gay life to find someone he felt comfortable enough and safe enough with to do it. He felt is cock enter and he gasped out loud. "Oh, my gawwd. This is fucking fantastic. Your ass is like.....heaven." He moaned. "I love you so much." "I love you too, now fuck me damn it." Mark said impatiently. "I love how your cock feels inside me....ahhhhh....yes, that's the spot." Mark said as Don found his prostate. "Fuck me baby, fuck me hard. Daddy needs to feel you cum inside me." Mark said giggling. "Uhhhh, oh gawddd...I can't hold out. Ohhhh, I'm cuming. Gawd ..........ahhhhhhhhhhhh." Don said as he unloaded into his lover's tight ass. He felt like his insides were draining out and he felt weak. He remained inside until he was spent and fell down beside Mark. "Oh, geeez." He gasped. "How about we go get some dinner and come back and try it again." Mark said smiling wickedly. "Oh, my. You really can out fuck me." Don said laughing. "I'm game if you are, but first I need a shower, I have about a quart of your cum in my ass." They showered, ate, and spent the rest of the night practicing their new techniques. Sleep came sometime after midnight as they collapsed exhausted into each other arms. *************************************************** Luke mother returned to the hospital around seven and was pleased to find her son in such good spirits. She decided not to tell Luke about her leaving his dad, but he seemed to sense that something was wrong. She played it off and kept his mind busy with other things. She looked at her son in a different light now. He was all she had now, and gay or not he was her son. The fact that he might be gay did not surprise her, she had sensed that her son was different and had suspected that might be the case. But he was after all her son, and nothing could make her love him less. She embraced his differences now and found that she actually felt her love for him was more intense. She stayed until around ten p.m. and kissed a sleepy Luke good bye, telling him she would return in the morning. Luke was sleeping gently as his mother left.
