MY  HOMETOWN MIRACLE - Edited
Written by:  Bill Hudley

I turned in the doorway for one last look.  I was leaving the apartment
that had been my home for the past five years.  Josh moved in with me when
I had been there two months and stayed for five years.  Back then we
thought we would be together forever, but this past year we knew that we
were changing, becoming friends instead of lovers. Then Josh met someone
else and we split up.  Our relationship and our friendship ended all at
once.  three months later on my birthday my job was eliminated when my
company was bought out by America's Bank.

That's when I decided to change my life.  I'm Robert Horton, 33 years old,
with no job and no prospects, I left my apartment in Indianapolis and moved
back to my home town where I grew up.  Mom was over the moon having me back
home, even if it was to be for just for a short time.  I was certain that I
would be leaving for another city soon.

Small town life doesn't suit my lifestyle at all, but back home I can at
least live with a minimal amount of expense.  Five years ago my Gran had
left me her house in her will, it has been rented out most of that time but
it just now it is vacant and I moved in.  The house was almost directly
behind my Mom's on the next street over.  We could visit just by walking
across the yard and in the back door.

I had money saved up for those proverbial rainy days, it is almost a
necessity in today's business environment of mergers and acquisitions
making so many jobs redundant and therefore expendable.  Besides the house,
Gran left Mom and I enough money to feel comfortable and able to weather
out a hard time if we should find ourselves without work.  Back here at
home I knew I could live well for an extended period if need be.  My
intention was to find work in either of the cities about a hundred miles
away in four directions.  Close enough to get home to see Mom more often
and far enough away to lead my life as the Gay man I am.

Mom worked as the executive assistant to the President of a local wholesale
food supplier.  She's worked there for twenty three years, moving from the
warehouse to the front office when the Secretary had her first child, the
Secretary happened to be the Boss's wife.  Their business had grown fast in
the past few years and it wasn't odd for Mom to work six days a week and
ten or more hours on many days.  I began having her come to my house for
dinner each night.  She loved not having to cook and I was certain both of
us would be eating much better than when we were eating alone, not to
mention how hard it is to cook for one.

The second week I was home, I ventured out into the business district of
our town.  With Christmas only 29 days away, Holiday Decorations were
everywhere.  The stores and shops around the Courthouse Square had all
changed but there were new shops in their places and from the square to the
West Side shopping district and all seemed to be thriving.  I was surprised
that some of the landmarks stores still stood, their old Marquees still
there marking the spot where a stalwart of the community once stood.

The old Railroad Depot is now a museum and is the perfect place for a
Grandpa to take the grandkids.  The hardware store on the Square is now a
coffee shop and restaurant; The College Grill, now a fine dining restaurant
on the West Side, bought the lot next door when the building burned and
turned the ruin into a garden for outdoor dining.  Our town is the home of
a mid sized State University; both the City and University populations were
growing and were becoming increasingly cosmopolitan.  A City Symphony and
Community theater were thriving as well.

Most of the retail growth has been toward Interstate Highway that runs East
to West just a mile or so South of the town square.  I pulled into a
parking spot and ventured into the coffee shop that was housed in the old
former Hardware Store, for many years owned by the father of a classmate of
mine.  There was a cool wind blowing and most of the patrons were indoors
today.  I sat at the bar, leaving the tables for couples or groups.  I got
an odd look from the server when I asked for plain black coffee, no sugar.
I reached over and picked up the local paper that was a couple of stools
away and mostly read the Headlines of the articles.

The Want Ads revealed the need for a car wash man at the local Chevy
dealer, a sales position is open at Adams Used Cars & Trucks, an empty
Stylist's chair at Brenda's House of Beauty and amazingly, a last one that
I was certain my experience would qualify me for in the Admissions Office
at the University.  I wrote down the number and description making a note
to call about their accounting position today.

As I was taking a sip of coffee a most handsome man passed by behind the
counter.  He nodded and smiled causing me to spill coffee in my lap.  The
smile was as bright as he was beautiful.  Something somewhere in the dark
corners of my memories of living here made me think that I knew that
beautiful specimen of manhood.  Jeez, who is he, I know that face, not
nearly as well as I would like but I'm certain he's local and near my age.
I gathered up my notes and refolded the paper and rose to go.  As I turned
to walk away I heard a voice wish me a good day and to come back soon.  I
turned and waved goodbye and I was blinded by that 1000 watt smile again.
Who is he?

Back at my house I pulled up my resume and cover letter and called the
University about the position.  I learned that the Students were due to
start the Holiday break in three days and that I should send my resume
first by email and then bring a hard copy if I should be called in for an
interview after the first of the year.  The assistant I was speaking with
assured me that I was qualified for the position, perhaps even
overqualified.  After a brief rundown on the duties I was excited that I
could actually have a great chance of getting the position.  Working here
was not my intention but with free housing and the low cost of living the
town offered I could stash away a lot of money in a short period.

There was nothing else I could do but wait until the Holiday break was
over.  I turned on the TV but I wasn't interested in anything I came
across.  My mind wandered back to the coffee shop and just who
Mr. Wonderful could be.  Thinking that maybe there was a website with a
listing of employees, I keyed in the name of the coffee shop, `City Perk',
and was surprised and was very impressed when a professionally done website
came up on my screen.  I immediately went to the About Us tab and there it
was.  The man with the 1000 watt smile was the Owner, Jerald Shipley.  I
smiled to myself remembering how I had crushed on him in High School.
Jerry Shipley!  Voted best looking boy all four years in High School, a
class officer all four years, and the secret heart throb of all the girls
and I'm sure more boys than just me. I remembered he had a younger brother
that promised to be as handsome as Jerry.  I was a year ahead of him; we
both kept the bench warm on the basketball team; Jerry also played
football, a wide receiver if I remember correctly, and a good one at that.

One thing I did remember and quite vividly was his hairy body.  Guys in the
Senior Class were just beginning to sprout a few chest hairs and heres this
sophomore,only 16 already covered with a thick mat of chest hair as well as
his arms and legs.  A mental image of him long ago in the showers with all
that hair on his body, wet and slicked down,his V-shaped torso tapered to a
perfect, furry, little bubble butt.

That mental image gave me an erection that lasted for a while.  The sight
of him shirtless and in Levi's could make a grown man weep.  Pushing hard
on the lump in my pants, I flashed forward to today and realized that my
memories of him in school were just the wishful thinking of a kid who
wasn't at all sure why Jerry held such a fascination for him, I didn't know
I was gay then but I knew what I felt for Jerry was not what I was supposed
to feel.  Just looking at him made my cock get hard.

I decided I would visit the Coffee shop again tomorrow.  I went into my
kitchen and pulled out a frozen meal to thaw that Mom had brought over and
then went to my closet to decide what I would wear to the coffee shop
tomorrow.  I wanted to make a good impression on Jerry when I renewed our
acquaintance.  I chose a Navy Turtleneck, Navy slacks, Cordovan shoes and
belt with a Camel Blazer, I practiced spiking up my hair a bit, a desperate
bid to shave a couple of years off my looks, and was satisfied that I did
look younger than my 33 years.  It was more than I could have hoped for
considering my circumstances.

After polishing my shoes and freshening the crease in my slacks, I read the
for rest of the evening and continued again in the morning, eating my
breakfast while engrossed in the latest Terry Pratchett novel.  Around 10
AM I headed for the shower and slowly made myself presentable to meet the
the best looking man in town.  The best I've seen anyway.  I parked facing
the Courthouse and had to cross the street to get to the coffee shop.

I heard the clanging of bells as Salvation Army Santas gave out Holiday
greetings while collecting money for the poor at shops all around the
Courthouse Square.  Entering the shop I told the Hostess that I was alone
and would sit at the counter if that was okay.  She ushered me to the bar
and gave me a menu.  A server filled my order of black coffee, and a bagel
with Strawberry Cream Cheese with a smile.  I reached for the daily paper
again just as Mr. Wonderful walked past behind the bar.  About four steps
past me he stopped and came back to me.

"Excuse me, you look very familiar to me and I'm sure we've met before.
I'm Jerald Shipley."

He said extending his hand.  I shook his hand and gave him my best and
brightest smile.

"Jerry?  Jerry Shipley?  The best looking boy four years running at good
old Central High?  It is a small world!  I'm Robert...uh...Bobby Horton,
Jerry.  Wow you've still got it man, so did you marry a local girl, kids?"

"No I married a girl from Nashville when we graduated college but we
divorced after four years, no kids.  Damn, Bobby Horton!  I knew we knew
each other.  You were here yesterday too, I was going to come introduce
myself but you were already on your way out.  Jeez Bobby, you look great,
you sure have matured well, very well indeed.  Are you back just visiting
for the Holidays?"

"I do wish that were the case but no, the company I was with for five years
was bought out and my job eliminated, I'm starting over again."

"That's rough man, been there, done that myself, that's how I ended up here
at this place.  If you have a few Minutes, I'll buy you another cup and we
can chat and catch up a bit."

"Sure thing Jerry, You're the first person I've seen from the good old
days.Ha, that's funny, they weren't so good when we were living them if I
remember right.  Teen angst and yearning for what we can never have is what
I remember most.  But you, all the good looking girls wanted you."

Jerry blushed crimson, surprising me and I apologised, not wanting to make
him self conscious or put him off.  He laughed it off saying it wasn't all
it was cracked up to be.  At my urging he told me what he had been doing
since High School.

"I lived in New York for five years, then Seattle for two, a three year
stint in Colorado Springs and back here to take care of my Mom and just be
with her before she passed away.  After Mom passed, all the people we've
known all our lives made such an effort to console and comfort me and my
brother I came to realize that right here is where I really wanted to be.

I could make more money in some big Restaurant in a large city, but I don't
ever want to be in that culture again.  My business here is finally growing
and I'm happy and content here.  So Rob, what about you?  Married,
children?"

Jokingly, I held out my hands with my index fingers making a cross to ward
off evil.

"Never!  The girl I dated and proposed to, disappeared when I gave her a
ring and asked her to marry me.  She did a Dr. Jekyl, Mr. Hyde
transformation turning into a manipulative, bitchy, argumentative control
freak.  Once burned, I learned my lesson and I've steered clear of that
particular evil, so far."

We both laughed .

"That's great Rob, we don't have many batchelors here, we'll have to go out
for a drink some night.  Dinner too.  My biggest turn off about being
single is eating alone.  Ugh."

"Sure thing Jerry, I agree, eating alone is the pits.  Lately I've been
having my Mom come over.  Our back yards touch so I see her quite a lot.
Tell me, is this place your's?  I really like it.  You've kept the old
oiled floors!  I can almost see Mr. Adams at the cash register."

"Yeah it's mine alright.  It was really touch and go for two years but we
seem to have caught on.  Expanding the Menu for breakfast and Lunch really
helped and I'm toying with adding dinner service for Thursday through
Sunday.  Our Customers have begun asking if we serve dinner.  I think we
can give those guys on Interstate Drive a run for their money.  I just have
to find the right menu to keep em coming here to eat."

Jerry said he had to get back to riding herd on the kitchen staff and we
rose to say goodbye when he handed me his Card.

"Give me a call Rob, we'll have drinks and dinner soon."

I asked for my check but he refused, saying it was his pleasure.  I fished
out an old card from my defunct bank and wrote my number on the back for
him.

"Call anytime, heck come over we can have a drink and hang out at the house
if you ever feel the need for company or to talk.  "I've been talking to
myself lately."

Jerry laughed, "I did that just this morning.!  Great to see you Rob, we'll
get together soon."

As we shook hands I could swear I saw him wink at me.  Gee, maybe he's
guessed I'm gay I thought.  Oh well, I could certainly be persuaded to
service him whenever he wishes.  Most times the ones that were great
looking in High School have lost their hair and waistline by their early
thirties, Jerry was the exception to that rule.  He looked much better now,
a grown, drop dead gorgeous 32 year old man.  WOOF!  I sure spent enough
time daydreaming of him naked and on my bed when we were in school.

I finished my tour of the older part of town and drove out toward the
College and was absolutely stunned when I saw the size of the Hospital.
The one story, 50 bed hospital that I once knew was now eight stories tall
and a Regional Hospital.  I drove a few blocks more and realized that the
College Campus and Hospital and grown together, swallowing up the homes and
business between them.  When I lived here there were only 10,000 people and
that included the college students, now the City has 40,000 and the college
is nearing 15,000 students.

I never dreamed I could get lost in my hometown but I did that day, I did
managed to regain my bearings but I was truly amazed at the size of the
town.  I told my Mom about my day and meeting up with Jerry.  She told me
that his Mom grew up just down the street from us at the `Old StantonPlace"
she said.

On Friday, Jerry called and asked me to Dinner, we went to the College
Grill, one of the oldest restaurants in town and after eating we started
for the bar at one of the motels when I suggested drinks at my place.

"That place will get noisy and drunk by midnight.  I've sort of lost my
desire for the chase lately and would rather talk, read or watch TV."  I
said

"Great Rob.  I know what you mean, it's nearly impossible to talk in one of
those places, what with the noise and the ladies trying to get you to dance
and buy their drinks.  It's been awhile since I've had a guys night out.  I
usually flop in front of the TV or I occasionally drive to the nightlife in
the City about an hour away."

I laughed.  "Even as much as the town has grown, I'll wager that it is
still hard to keep your life private here.  Everyone always knew everyone
else's business when we were young and I'll bet they still do."

Jerry laughed too.  "Yeah, that's why I make the hours drive when I get the
urge.  That and the lack of...

Jerry was interrupted by my cell phone ringing on the kitchen counter.  I
went to get it and answered.

"Hi Robbie, gee it's good to hear your voice again, how have your been?"

As soon as I heard `Hi Robbie' a cold chill ran through me.  It was Josh,
my ex, the one who moved on.  I was silent for a moment, not knowing what
to say.

"Robbie?"

"Josh, unless your calling to tell me someone has died, this conversation
is over.  Do not call this number again, please."

I turned the phone off and closed it, placing it back on the counter.

"Sorry Jerry.  Why is it that the people you try to get away from are the
ones that always manage to find you.  Sorry for that.  You were talking
about driving into the city for what...sex?"

Jerry blushed, then laughed.

"Yeah I guess that is what I meant.  But I was trying to be more delicate
than that.  You're right about the town, few secrets are kept here, still.
That call Rob, is everything alright?

"It's a long, story for another time.  But yes everything is alright, that
was someone I once trusted and cared for but that is all over with now.
Tell me more about driving an hour or so to get relief, better yet let me
know where to go.  I'm at the climbing the walls stage myself these days."

"I'm not so sure you would like the places I've been too.  Uh...can we
change the subject...I'm not ready to chat about our sex lives or lack of
one with you as yet.

"Sure thing.  I want to hear about the coffee shop anyway.  How did that
all happen, I would love to find some sort of small business venture I
could get into instead of Finance or Banking."

Jerry started telling me how he got started in the shop and the more he
talked the more animated he became.  I wondered why he wasn't the
spokesperson for the chamber of Commerce, The man could sell an Eskimo
snow!

We had several drinks and when Jerry went to the bathroom he was woozy, and
nearly fell.  I rushed to steady him and led him to the bath and shut the
door behind him, telling him to use the washcloth and cold water on his
face and neck.

I didn't hear any sounds of his being sick thankfully, but I did go and
turn down the bed in the guest room.  He emerged from the bath apologising
profusely but I told him not to worry, it's happened to all of us, lucky
for him he was at a friends place.

`I've turned down the bed in the guest room.  You're sleeping it off here
Jerry.  No driving.  You promise?"

Damn him, he gave me that crooked little grin I remembered from High
School.  My cock stiffened in my jeans. I had started to turn to go when he
started undoing his belt.  I was frozen, I wanted to turn away but I wanted
to see him without his pants on more.

"Rob!  Thanks dude.  You're really a cool guy.  A real cutie too!"

Again there was that damnable crooked grin that rendered me helpless.

I watched his face as his jeans slid to his ankles, he held eye contact as
he stepped out of the jeans around his ankles.  I had remembered right, his
legs were hairy as could be and his CK briefs were packed, front and rear.

Feeling my pulse quicken, I turned before he saw the throbbing in my
pants. and said as I walked away.

"Sleep Well Bud.  I'll wake you at 7." I said.

I was a few steps down the hall when he called my name again.  I stopped
and slowly turned and nearly passed out.  Jerry was wearing only his briefs
and leaning forward with a hand on each side of the doorway.  I will never
forget that image.  That beautiful man, the body hair, his tanned and toned
body, the packed full, stark white CK briefs.  He absolutely took my breath
away.

"Thanks again Rob, I owe you for this."

I was trying to avert my eyes lest they pop right out of my head. He is the
most perfect man I have ever seen.

"You'd do the same for me, don't worry Jer.  Sleep well."

But the time I reached my bedroom I was hyperventilating.  The image of
Jerry naked except for the CK tightie whities and that glorious body hair
had my cock so stiff it hurt.  I practiced breathing exercises to get
myself back to normal. I closed my eyes and fell back onto my bed, I
groaned aloud when the image of him in that doorway played on the inside of
my eyelids.

After a few minutes I was able to get up and go straighten up from our
drinking and talking.  When everything was done I just sat on a barstool at
the kitchen island and stared off into space.  I knew that after tonight
and seeing him in his CK's I was in big trouble here.  The crush in High
School was nothing compared to this full blown man lust I'm feeling for
him.

I was up at six a.m., digging through the cabinets until I found a couple
of packets of Temple Coffee and made it in the French Press.  After the
coffee got going it was only a few minutes until Jerry came down the hall
in the robe I laid across the foot of his bed this morning.

Jerry is either completely oblivious of the effect he has on others or he's
a calculating, conniving devil.  He strolled into the kitchen with the robe
open, his hairy chest, bulging basket and hairy legs there for all to see.
Even his feet were beautiful!

He looked at me, his hair mussed and that crooked grin, melting away any
will to resist him that I thought I possessed.

"Thank you Robbie, I appreciate your taking care of me last night."

He stepped to me and hugged me to him.  I felt faint.  Then as he broke
away he kissed me on the neck just below my ear.

"You're a great guy Rob, I hope we can become great friends."

We drank the coffee and ate peanut butter toast with Orange Marmalade.  We
sat at the bar, his beautiful body showing and I fought to keep from
staring at him.  We talked a bit and soon he had to dress and head out to
his shop for the breakfast crowd.

Later I stumbled to the shower and masturbated to the vision of Jerry in
the guest room doorway last night.  With my mind cleared and the throbbing
in my cock abated for a while I was able to take my time, to think of
things I needed to do today.  Around eleven the phone rang and I
immediately thought of Josh's call last night.  I was surprised to see it
was Jerry calling.

"Hello"

"Hey Robbie, just wanted to thank you again for last night, and offer you a
free lunch at the shop if you're interested."

"Sure thing, what time is good for you Jer?"

"Anytime after one o'clock is fine.  I can join you then, see you later
Guy."

Holy Crap!  IF I'M INTERESTED!!  If I get anymore interested in him I won't
be able to function.  I went to my closet to pick out something that would
show off my assets best.  I settled on fresh pressed Jeans, a red Cashmere
crewneck pullover with a Camel colored Suede Blazer and Cordovan weejuns.

Jerry was behind the counter and I saw him do a double take when I walked
in.  At first I thought that he didn't recognize me but then that sexy
crooked grin of his spread across his handsome face, He waved, motioning me
to the bar.  He placed a covered plate and glass in front of me and I
carried it to the table he directed us to, in the back of the room, near
the kitchen away from the others eating lunch, no one was near us.

He told me he was using me as a guinea pig to try out a dish for his dinner
trade when he started it up in a few weeks.  He reached over and lifted the
cover off my plate and the most wonderful aroma rose into the air.

`For you, my friend, Chicken Marsala.  He uncovered the same on his plate
and beaming a bright smile he said.

"Bon Appetit bon ami."

"Oh my, what a treat, the presentation and the aroma all say it's a
smashing success Jerry.  I can hardly wait to taste it."

The dish was perfect, I asked who his Chef was and he blushed again.

"You!  Really?  This is so wonderful.  Is there any other place in town
with food like this.?

"No, not to my knowledge, and I think I can get it on the table priced
below the chain store restaurants down on Interstate Drive."

"How are you going to advertise Jerry"

"I haven't worked all that out yet but the paper for sure.  You have any
good ideas Mr. Finance guy?"

I smiled at him.  "Actually I do, I saw this done in Indianapolis.  Throw a
New Years bash with a couple of decent wines for a buck a glass and have
all the new menu items for your dinner service set out as a free buffet.
Put up signs and maybe a radio spot on the local PBS and be sure that the
Faculty at the College gets wind of it.  They will spread the word if you
impress them.  Dress the male staff in Tuxedos and `little black dresses
with a strand of pearls' for the ladies and people will talk about it all
year."

"Jeez, Rob...that sounds perfect.  You want a job!"

"Tell you what Jerry, give me the numbers on what your food and drink will
costs are and I can work out a budget.  Maybe on second thought it should
be an Invitation Only affair.  You can control your costs much better that
way.  Invite your regulars, all the people the restaurant does business
with, the Faculty at the College, your Bankers, neighboring businesses that
are not your competition, the Mayor and Councils.

You will need extra staff too, we can get that from the students at the
college I bet.  I'll help if you want, sort of a Maitre `d to welcome and
guide the guests.  I know you will be busy in the kitchen most of the
night.  Oops, we need to add the Sheriff and Chief of Police to the guest
list"

Jerry was giving me the strangest look, his mouth open like he was going to
speak but he kept silent.

"Uh...It was just an idea, didn't mean to get so carried away there.
Jerry?"

"R...Rob...I...uh...Rob you're just one big surprise after another.  How do
you know all this?  Your plan sounds perfect.  The Invitation thing will
make the ones who don't get invited want to come to see what we're all
about later.  AND YES!  I think we can pull this off.  With me cooking I
will need someone to greet everyone.  You're perfect for that.  You look
fantastic today, I can only imagine how great you'll look in a Tuxedo."

After we ate Jerry took me back to his office to get the numbers on food
costs.  As I looked around I saw a diploma on the wall from the Culinary
institute of America.

"JERRY!  the CIA, really?"

"Yes, I told you I lived in New York for five years.  The CIA is why I was
there."

"Jer, that diploma needs to hang by the front desk so your customers will
see it when they come in.  It needs to be on your Business Card, the Menus
and in any advertising your do.""That all makes perfect sense Rob, I love
the cooking but I'm not much of a businessman.  I know I need someone but
finding one I can trust is the hard part.  Can I trust you Robbie?"

I laughed.  "I'll be glad to help you out Jerry.  Gratis.  You won't have
me on your payroll.  I'll be glad to teach you the little tricks that I
know to help get a business going or change directions."

He had that look again.  I couldn't figure it out.

"What is it Jer, you're kinda freaking me out the way you're staring at
me."

"Oh...uh...sorry, it just that I realized that I really can trust you,
Robbie.  I said it earlier but sort of as a joke.  I've known you a long
time.  I know you're a good man, I saw that first hand last night.  I will
be glad for any help you want to give me, but I really won't feel right not
paying you.

There are some things we should get out in the open, talk about if we're
going to be working together.  Want to come over to my place tonight and we
can plan out this party idea, We have known each other for a long time but
really we're almost strangers, we need some bonding time too."

"Sure Jerry, but I don't know where you live."

"Meet me here and we'll drive there."

I left his shop floating on air.  I was excited about the New Years Eve
Party.  Driving home I thought of little gift boxes filled with Petite
Pastries for the guests to take home.  Just a bite or two to make them want
to come and sample more later.

Mom called about three pm and I told her about going over to Jerry's for
dinner tonight.  She told me that Josh had called her, begging her to get
me to talk to him.  I told her I would take care of it.

As soon as we were off the phone I looked up his call and dialed him.  When
he answered I lit into him about calling my mother and ended telling him to
never, ever call me or her again.  Nothing he had to say interested me in
the least.

Josh was sobbing when we hung up, he kept crying that he was sorry.  I was
sorry too.  I had loved him but he killed it.  It was gone, over.  I had
moved on.

I started making a list of items and ideas for the party at Jerry's shop. I
began visiting Jerry's competition.  I didn't come across anyone that knew
me and I learned that there was only one other shop on the West Side that
even came close to his place.  I noticed the sign announcing that they
would be closed on New Years Eve and smiled.  Jerry's will be the only show
in town with any luck.

I talked with the Police and Sheriff Departments and told them of the plans
and that there would only be wine, tea, coffee and mineral water served as
drinks.  I told both departments that they would be invited.  I Phoned the
College and inquired about inviting Staff and Faculty and I was eagerly
received.

Jerry called at 4:30 saying to come on over, he was closing up.  He was
waiting just inside the door and came out with a huge smile that I felt in
my crotch.  I knew I had to learn to ignore the attraction I have to him.
Nothing good could come of it.  I had to control my emotions and libido.
Who was I kidding?  I needed to have sex.  That's the only cure for my
problem.

We had a Taco Salad for dinner that was out of this world, this man is a
fabulous cook.  We sat and talked for hours, I told him about the `take
away gift box idea' which he had done before in New York.  He new exactly
what to put in them.At midnight I rose to go home, neither of us had been
drinking very much, both wary after last night.  But Jerry offered to have
me sleep over.  I thought about it and decided not to, explaining that Mom
had me taking her to Church every Sunday since I came home.

"Rob, do you remember us singing in the youth choir at Church.  I had
forgotten about that.  Remember we were up in the Balcony and we could see
the first few rows turning to look at us."

"Gee, I do, but I hadn't thought of that in twenty years."

"Robbie, I mean it about the room, please stay if you want to, I like your
company.  I hope it doesn't bother you.  It's just that I really don't know
many single people here.  I always feel like a third wheel or the sucker of
the day as they set up `blind date' encounters.  A single lady to offset
the single man at the table.  I've quit accepting those invitations and
have stayed pretty much to myself.  Either way you're welcome here anytime
Robbie."

Touched, I put an arm across his shoulder and halfway hugged him to me.

"I like you too, Jerry.  I really do."

He stood at the door until I drove off.  I sort of felt bad leaving him,
but I wasn't ready yet to test my will power by seeing him in his CK's
briefs again.  I would get control and I would be his friend.  He would
never know how much I want to make love to him.

As Mom and I were leaving church Sunday we ran into Jerry, he made a proper
fuss over her and enough eye contact with me that I felt warm and fuzzy
inside.  Jerry was all Mom could talk about on the way home.  As we pulled
into her garage she put her hand on my arm.

"Robert, you and Jerry would make a fine couple.  He's a good man Son.You
could do a lot worse than him."

I sat there, mouth agape not believing what I was hearing.

"Oh Robert, just stop it!  I'm your Mother, I've known you were different
since you were twelve years old.  I know you prefer the company of a man.
I also know that it doesn't matter who you love, but it is how you love
that counts.  It's not so new to this town either.  We've had men together
as a couples here for years."

"MOM!

"Hush, you don't have to say a word.  But you know that whatever your do is
fine with me.  I Just want you to be happy Son. That's all I ever want."

"Mom, I don't know if Jerry is like me or not.  Please don't say anything
to him, I'll be working with him a good bit into the new Year.

"Oh pooh!  you know I won't say anything to him.  But Robert, Jerry is like
you.  I saw the way he looks at you.  Now let's go check on my pot roast."

We had our dinner.  Here in the South the older generation calls the
mid-day meal Dinner and the evening meal is Supper.  I did the clean up
after her fantastic pot roast and she packed up most all of the leftovers
into containers for me to take to my house.

Back in my own kitchen putting away the containers of food, I was still
amazed at the things that my Mom had said to me in the garage.  She's
always known I am gay?  She thinks that Jerry and I should be a couple and
she's certain he is gay too!  Absolutely mind boggling!

I was flipping through the TV channels, stopping for a few minutes of the
Falcons/Giants game.  When I lived in Indianapolis the Colts were my second
team, I grew up watching the Atlanta team with my Pop, for years they were
the closest pro team to us and they always were the underdogs until the
past three or four years.  Pops would have loved to see them winning
regularly like they do now.  Watching the games isn't as much fun now
without him yelling at the TV.  Gee, it seems impossible that it's been 12
years already since he passed away.  I kept checking in with todays game
and they whipped the defending Super Bowl Champion Giants 34-0!  WOW!

At three o'clock my cell vibrating in my pants woke me as I dozed in my
chair.  It was Jerry calling to say hey.  I asked if he had dinner plans
and offered to give him Mom's pot roast and veggies.  He readily accepted
and was at my door in less than half an hour.

I opened the door and he stood there wearing that crooked grin that
rendered me incompetent in his presence.  I took a deep breath and let it
out as a long sigh as I ushered him in.  One of these days, I'm going to
snap and jump his bones, I just know it.  He wore a white dress shirt and
jeans that hugged his perfect little butt so well.  I noticed the bulge in
front and had trouble tearing my eyes away from it.  Jeez, I gotta get a
grip.

"Hey Jer, how was your day."

"We did a big lunch today, business has picked up this Holiday season much
more so that last year.  Maybe it's you Rob, you may be my good luck charm.
This New Years Party idea of yours just keeps getting better.  I moved my
CIA diploma to behind the front desk and it has generated quite a buzz
among our regulars.  I've mentioned the party idea to a few of them and
they are very excited about it.  I think we need to get the Invitations
done and mailed very soon before people commit to another party."

"Good thinking Jer.  I'm excited too.  This town has never seen a party
anything like what your shop is going to put on.  When I visited with the
police department I asked for a one night variance on the occupancy limit
and I got the word today that the Fire Dept. has granted our request.  They
need to be on the invitations list too."

We sat and talked, drank sweet tea all afternoon then switched to wine
around dusk.  By the time we ate the pot roast we were both feeling no pain
and just a bit tipsy.  We went back to the sofa and soon both of us were
dozing off.  I woke and got up, put a pillow under Jerrys head and lifted
his legs and feet onto the sofa and put a throw over him.  I stood there
for a moment looking at him sleeping.  Good grief!  He's such a handsome
man.  I went to my room, toed off my shoes and lay on the bed, still
dressed and on top of the covers.

I woke at two a.m and went in to the family room to check on Jerry.  He
wasn't there so I went to the guest room, I eased the door open and there
he lay, snuggled up in the covers, his clothes on the chair and on the
floor beside the bed lay his CK briefs.  I know I gasped aloud seeing them
on the floor, he stirred and opened his eyes, and sat upright startled.

"What's wrong...what is it?" He asked.

"Sorry Jerry, it's nothing.  I just woke up and went looking for you, first
on the sofa and then in here.  I didn't mean to wake you."

He stretched and yawned.  "What time is it."

"Just a bit after two a.m., go back to sleep."

"Uh...okay...but I...uh...I need to pee Rob and I'm kinda naked in this
bed.  Not only that but I've got a little wood problem too, it you know
what I mean."

I laughed and leaned against the door frame.

"Hmmm, if I remember correctly when I saw you in just your briefs the first
time you stayed over, It's much more likely that you have a large wood
problem Jer."

He blushed again then that crooked grin spread again..

"Well, regardless of who is right, you're about to see it first hand if you
don't get out of the way.  I gotta go!"

He was kicking off the covers as I retreated down the hall.  I heard him
laughing.

"Chicken!  you're not afraid of my woodie are ya"

I said quietly, under my breath not even thinking he could hear me.

"More than you could ever imagine Jer!"

Yikes, I shouldn't have said that.  He'll want me to explain that comment
for sure.  Jerry dashed into the bath and I hoped he would forget it.  But
when he came out he had a towel wrapped around his waist and I could
clearly see his cock draped along his right thigh.  It was not a small wood
problem he woke with, I'm certain.

"Whew that was close, I'm glad your looking in woke me, if I had pissed the
bed I'd have to finish out the night in your bed with you."

I know I had that `Deer in the headlights look' I swallowed hard and
started to say something but just let it die in my throat.

"Speak up Robbie, I can't hear you."

"Never mind Jerry.  Please, let's drop this now Jerry.  We shouldn't be
talking about your woodie at all.  Please, let's drop it okay."

"It's just us Rob, we're friends, we should be able to talk about anything.
Even morning wood!  I was just jokin' around, you're not pissed at me are
ya?  Jeez I didn't know it would be a sore subject with you.  I'm sorry."

"Jerry it's past 2 a.m and you have to work tomorrow.  You're standing here
with only a towel covering you.  Go back to bed."

"Okay I'm going.  Jeez."

I apologised to Jerry first thing this morning as we had coffee before
heading out.  He nodded and said it was okay, we're good.  But I could tell
he was still puzzled or pissed.  Either way I just had to drop it.  I
wasn't ready to explain myself to him.  I know that I have to find a way to
put aside my attraction and this carnal lust I have for him so that we are
able to work together.  Number one on the list is that we need to stop
drinking together, number two is we sleep in our own beds.  No more stay
overs.  I want him so badly it physically hurts sometimes.  Not Good.

I told him that I would be working from home, getting the invitations done
and he had already emailed the shops customer mailing list.  I added the
others to that list and I dropped by the coffee shop and got his approval
on the invitation and took it and the email list to the Office Supply store
for printing.

When everything was done we had 116 invitations to mail.  My Mom and I got
them into the envelopes and and I headed off to the post office.  I talked
with the a local dry cleaner that rented Costumes and Formal Wear and gave
a list of our employees that would come for fittings.  Next I sent an email
to the Dean of Students asking them to publicise our need for ten servers
(experience preferred) from the Hospitality Management Program at the
college.  Amazingly we received 100 RSVP's saying that they would attend
the party, That means food and drink for 200 people!  We added 20 percent
to to be sure we covered any extras.

State wine and Liquor Laws require that we charge for all the alcohol to be
consumed.  We can't just give Wine or Liquor away.  One way around this is
to charge a `Cover Charge' per guest for the evening with a `split' of
Champagne included.  My cost initial guesstimate for the party was
$2,068.00.  With a $5.00 cover per guest that would leave the Shop with
about $1,068 expense for the evening.

When I shared these numbers with Jerry he was very pleased, A 30 second
radio ad running 3 times a day for one month was twice our cost.He
enthusiastically agreed and we with the Party nine days away we ordered the
food and drink.

Without my knowing it My Mom called and invited Jerry to come and enjoy
Christmas with us.  Secretly I was glad he was here, but I put on my best
show of friendly aloofness as we laughed, exchanged gifts and ate a
wonderful traditional Christmas meal.  Jerry produced a Red Velvet Cake for
dessert, My Mom's most favorite cake ever.  He was great with my Mom but I
could tell that he still wasn't over the incident last week when we were
drinking.

With six days to go we hired the last of our temporary staff and got them
fitted for their tuxedos and little black dresses.  Jerry did trial runs on
all of his new menu dishes and planned out the buffet tables and dressed
them with the empty bowls, platters and left spaces for floral
arrangements.  The day before the party the florist arrived at closing time
to set up the floral arrangements, Jerry and I stayed late three nights
that week.  On New Years Eve I woke to the phone ringing and picked it up,
half asleep."HAPPY NEW YEAR!  Todays the day Robbie, drag yourself out of
that bed and get down to the Coffee Shop A.S.A.P, it's Party Time Robbie!"

He hung up without giving me a chance to protest.  I managed to get a cup
coffee and a shower and was on my way fifteen minutes after his call.  I
went straight to the office and turned on the computer and double checked
the food orders from meats to Champagne.  We had received everything we
ordered

The New Years Bash was scheduled to start at 8:00 p.m.  The staff arrived
at 6.00, I gathered the staff and briefed them on what we wanted and that
they were to give these guest the best service imaginable.  I explained to
them that we were doing something that has never been done in this town
before and we wanted it to be remembered for a long, long time.  Jerry had
plenty of help in the kitchen and we stayed out of his way as much
possible.

I opened the front doors at ten till eight when I saw the first couples
headed our way.  From that moment on the evening was a blur of activity,
with everything running smooth as clockwork.  The guests were very much
impressed with the decorations and gave exuberant praise for Jerry's new
menu items.

Our wait staff impressed me.  They were very smart looking in their evening
attire, and attentive to our guests without being obvious, they were very
near perfect in my estimation.  At a quarter till eleven Jerry left the
kitchen to his Sou Chef, donned his Tux and came to join his guests.  When
I saw him in his Tux and winged Collar shirt I nearly swooned.  A tuxedo
makes an ordinary man look fantastic.  Jerry looked like he had stepped out
of the pages of GQ magazine.  He was movie star handsome, and I could see
the effect he had on the ladies, who could blame them.  I was already crazy
mad for him and now seeing him dressed so fine I was both elated and sad.
He blushed when his guests broke into applause as he walked to the area we
had made into a dance floor.

He thanked everyone involved from the guest to the staff singling out the
Police and Fire Departments as well as the Mayor and Council.  He even
introduced me and told the guests that this party was all my idea.  He had
heard enough praise for the new menu items to know that he would start up
the Thursday through Sunday Dinner service soon, Telling the guests that it
would likely begin on February first.  Again there was applause and a line
formed quickly at the front desk making reservations for that opening
night.  He also reminded the guest to pick up their `Present' as they were
leaving.  We had all the Gift boxes of mini pastries wrapped in Christmas
wrapping and ribbons on a table by the door on their way out.

We had our own New Years ball drop to count off the seconds until the new
year, the guests all sang Auld Lang Syne and by 1: 45 a.m. Jerry and I were
alone sitting at a table having our first glass of Champagne.  The staff
had all the glasses and dishes removed to the kitchen and were gone by
12:30.

We were tired but both of us over the moon with the success, I had phoned
the to the local paper and alerted them of the big party and photo op with
the local movers and shakers.  On New Years Day I was surprised to see
front page coverage in the local paper with great pictures of party guests,
group pictures and even some of couples dancing.  The dance floor had
turned out to be a big hit with the guests and I told Jerry he should
consider having dancing and maybe hire a student band or combo from the
college to play the music.  He could do a piano player for three nights and
have dancing on Saturday.

When It was time to go Jerry grabbed me and pulled me into a huge hug, It
wasn't the hips held back guy hug either, it was thigh to thigh and it made
me bone up instantly.  He pushed back a bit and thanked me for all I had
done to help him and he hoped that I would settle down and stay here.

"I need you here as my friend Robbie and we work well together, we're a
good team."

"I will always be your friend Jer.  Always."

A few days later Jerry called and asked me to drop by for lunch, he wanted
my advice on the new evening dinnerware and flatware.  It had been a bit
strange for me, not being with him everyday like we were up until the
party.  I took care to be dressed nicely, wanting to make an impression on
him.  Silly I know, but I'm vain that way.  Mom taught me to always
`present yourself' as you want others to see you, you only get one chance
to make a first impression.'  Heaven knows I wanted him to see me as his
future mate and companion.  Pipe dreams I know, but a guy can always hope.

I wore jeans, Weejuns, a burgundy turtleneck pullover and my grey London
Fog wool car coat.  As I walked in Jerry did that double take again then
that crooked smile of his, like he knew something no one else knew.  As I
walked to his table I saw his eyes go from my face to my shoes and back up
to my face.  He blushed slightly when he saw me watching him.

"You always look so together, Rob, Everything about you is always just
right.  Sometimes I want to muss your hair just so you won't be so
perfect.Have a seat Bud."

I slipped out of the coat and, draped it over an empty chair and sat beside
him to look at the catalog of dinnerware.  It didn't take very long,
everything I liked and pointed out he ordered, dinnerware, glassware and
flatware for 50 place settings.  I opted for a plate with a single black,
narrow band and unadorned sleek flatware and goblets that mimicked cut
crystal.  We talked and chatted some more and when he got a phone call, I
said I'd catch up with him later.  He didn't smile as I left like he
usually does.

The next day I got a call from the University and went in for an interview
in the Admissions Office.  I was pleased that it went well and I was called
back on Friday and was offered the job.  I was both happy and sad, I had
wanted to settle in a larger city but I also wanted to be near Mom and my
friend Jerry here.  I called the coffee shop but Jerry was with a food
salesman and I told the hostess I'd call back.

It was the middle of January and I woke on Saturday morning knowing that I
had to find someone and have sex!  I told Mom I would be away tonight and
back home tomorrow, she could get to church with one of her friends.  By
noon I was on my way to the city.  I found a nice motel near downtown and
checked in.  I took the Gay Club and Bar guide from my carryall and looked
up the places to go here.  I had an early dinner and caught a movie and
went back to my room to get ready for the club.

The first place I went was sparsely populated and I asked the barman where
I could go to dance.  He told me of a place just around the corner called
Blu.  I had another drink and walked to the dance club.  Inside I was
pulled onto the dance floor before I could get to the bar.  The kid I was
dancing with was in his early twenties and very cute.  After twenty minutes
or so I begged off and went to the bar.  I chugged the first drink fairly
fast and took the second and went to the end of the bar and sat down to
catch my breath.

The crowd was growing steadily and I was rested enough that I began to look
around for a possible bedmate for the night.  It wasn't very long until I
felt the urge and had to go to the restroom and after waiting in a long
line at last I got to relieve myself and started back to the bar when I
collided with someone.  We slammed into each other fairly hard and I almost
went to the floor, when I gathered my wits and turned to apologize I was
stunned.  Someone who looked a lot like Jerry stood there looking just as
shocked as me.  It took a couple of seconds but his sexy, crooked little
grin spread across his face and I knew it was him.  Stunned to see him here
I stood facing him, mouth agape staring at him.Without saying a word he
took my face in both hands and kissed me so very gently.  My very first
thought was `Mom was right, he is gay!'  Then everything clicked into place
and I put everything I had into our first kiss. He broke away for a moment
and just stared into my eyes then he kissed me again.  This time he drove
his tongue past my tonsils, I moaned and he wrapped his arms around me,
pulling me tightly to him as our kiss continued.  My arms went around his
neck; the feel and taste of him melted any reserve I had, right there in a
crowded gay dance club, we shared the kiss that would change us both
forever.

When we were desperate for air we pulled apart but still held each other
close.  I fought the tears brimming in my eyes, he smiled and wiped them
away with his thumb and leaned over to my ear and said.

"Are you ready to come with me, be with me Robbie?  We have some very
urgent personal business that needs our attention.  Tonight we can end this
constant frustration that we both have felt, wishing and hoping, but not
knowing for certain that we both want the same thing.  The way that you
returned my kiss told me you feel the same as I do.  I want to make love
with you Rob, I have since that second day you came into the coffee shop.
Well, that second day it was more like lust, wanting to jump your bones,
but now, after our time together, we need to to make love, to confirm what
we both hope and pray is true.  This is going to be so good.  I know we're
going to be perfect together.  I know it.  Are you ready to let me love
you?"

I couldn't speak yet I was absolutely stunned to see him here.  I just
nodded yes and held him tightly.

"Come Robbie, it's time.  You know this isn't just a one night thing, this
is it we've dreamed of this night and how we could be so good together.
It's now, it's time.  Come, Rob and Jerry starts right now"

We walked out his arm around my shoulder, mine around his waist, my room
was closest and we found Jerry's car and drove to my motel.  Before the
room door closed we were locked into a another passionate kiss.  Jer was
undoing my shirt and I was opening his pants.  We broke apart and finished
taking off our clothes and fell onto the bed, I know I could have
ejaculated just feeling his hairy body against mine.

We were frantic for each other.  Locked into another tongue battle, my
fingers played in his dense chest hair, seeking a hard nibbed nipple.  when
i covered it with my lips and nipped at it with my teeth, his back arched
up and a loud moan came from within him and he held my head tight to him,
thrashing about and moaning.

My left hand started it's journey down his chest, onto his abs, stopping to
tickle and circle his outie navel button, then on to his lower abdomen, the
space between his navel and his pubic hair; the muscles from just above his
hips veed in here, his skin taught over hard muscles.  I stopped my hand
moving, savoring his mouth against mine.

In another inch or two my hand would be at the cock I've wanted and dreamed
of since I was 16 years old.  Just then Jerry pinched my nipple and my hand
grabbed his cock.  Even though I had taken every chance to check out his
ample looking but clothed package, vividly remembering him in the CK
tightie whities in my guest room, I was surprised by the size of his cock.
I wasn't the length but the girth, my long fingers lacked at least an inch
touching when I encircled his throbbing cock.

Jerry moaned into my mouth and reached to take my cock and slowly jacked
me.  Suddenly the years of frustration were over, what I had wanted so
badly at 16 was in my hand; quickly I broke away, turned and devoured his
fat cock with my mouth.  This time it wa me who moaned, the feel of his
cock stretching my lips, his soft fleshy glans against my tongue, the sweet
taste of his clear pre cum had my cock leaking a steady stream too.  Jerry
wasted no time, he grabbed my cock and took me to the hilt, swallowing all
of me in one smooth gulp.  We rolled to lay on our sides and we held each
other close, each linked mouth to cock in one of the two most intimate acts
men can do together.

We each took in as much of the others cock as we could manage, Jerry had
nearly all of me in his throat while I could only manage about half of his
very substantial cock.  It was long and thick and I wanted it all in me,the
very thought of this beautiful man, my friend, with his cock inside me made
me twitch and moan in anticipation.

His cock was a challenge, I was determined that I would get all of him down
into my throat.  It took three tries but when his corona slipped down into
my throat he roared and started spewing his semen in me.  I had to pull
back to taste him then plunged him deep into my throat again.  He fucked my
face until he was too sensitive to tolerated it further.  I shot my load
into him when he cried out my name while he was ejaculating.  We lay there
each nursing the others cock until they became too sensitive to continue.

I turned again and we lay facing each other, arms and legs entwined, our
bodies touching wherever possible.  Stroking his hair back off his forehead
I said.

"I'm still in shock, you are my Jerry right?  This is the best surprise I
have ever had.  I've wanted this so much, wanted and hoped that somehow you
would be gay and into me like I am to you.  I've had a bad case of `blue
balls' since that first night you stayed at my place.  I've wanted to do
that with you for 17 years now, since we sat on the bench at basketball
games in high school.  I've wanted you since I knew I was gay. You were
well worth the wait.  If I were able, i'd do it again right this minute.

"Robbie, you have been the star of my mastubation sessions since the second
day you came into the shop in the navy slacks and top and camel jacket.  So
freaking sexy!  You excite me in ways that surprise and amaze me, the way
our genuine friendship has developed in just over a month.  Your ideas for
our big New Years party absolutely amazed me, I have people calling every
day wanting to know when we will start serving dinner.  We are already
booked solid for Dinner the first two weekends in February when we start
dinner service.  I owe all that success to you.  I want to be near you,
these few days since the party have been awful, not seeing you, being with
you each day .

You're always so handsome and well put together, I get hard watching you
walk to the bar at the shop.  I'm amazed that you stir such emotion and
desire in me.  I've only had one gay relationship, while I was in New York,
and it lasted two years.  In only one month I have stronger feelings for
you than I had for my lover and companion of two years in New York.  I want
you sexually, you drive me to distraction in your jeans and I almost cried
when I saw you in your Tux the night of the party, You're so perfect and I
feared...no I was certain...that I would never have you the way I want you.

Then tonight, here you are, a most unexpected surprise, my heart raced when
I saw you here.  At first I thought it was just someone who looks like you,
and I was coming closer to find out when we collided.  I'll never forget
the look on your face when you turned to face me.  It was like it took a
second or two for your mind to process the fact that it was me standing
there."

"I'm a little scared now Jerry.  I want us to work out, I want us to have
it all.  We've just begun our fantastic sexual journey here tonight.  I
know that our first sex was just blowing of the steam we've generated this
past month.  Later, maybe in just a few more minutes, we'll get to the
making love part.  That's what I want most right now.  To make love to
Jerry Shipley, to show him how much I care already, to let him know just
how much I want him.  Right now I feel like I'll have this woodie you've
made forever.  We might as well put it to good use, what do you say?" I
said.

"I say we do it Robbie, I've always been the top, I've never been fucked
but I've never felt like I do for you, before now.  I already know I want
you inside me Rob.  I want to possess you, be possessed by you.  We can
make it happen."

"Ummm I'm gonna do just that Jerry, but we may be awake all night.  I've
built up a lot of loving over the last month and it's all for you."

I moved to suckle on his right nipple, bringing moans from deep within him,
he thrashed his head and legs, grabbing fistfuls of bedding as I sucked,
kissed and laved his nipples.  My right hand traced down through the thick
mat of hair that covered his chest and abs, with my hand full of his fat
cock again I jacked him slowly while I bit and sucked his nipples.  I let
my hand slide down and my forefinger and thumb circled his scrotum above
the testicles and I slowly pulled his sac taught.  He moaned and I pulled
harder, squeezing his testicles gently as I pulled.  A roar came from deep
inside him.

My mouth left the nipple and traced his ribs and over his hips then in to
inhale the man scent at his crotch.  With my lungs full of his scent I
looked up to his eyes and slowly guided his cock into my mouth, never
losing eye contact with him.  Jerry whimpered and moaned as I took him to
the root deep into my throat.  He bucked and thrust trying to get more cock
down my throat.  I pulled off his cock and pushed on his legs to raise him
up to gobble both testicles into my mouth.  Closing my lips I pulled back
hard making him cry out my name.  I let his testicles slip from my lips one
at a time, then moved lower to let my tongue trace over his furry butt
cheeks.

After minutes of kissing and licking his cheeks and sucking at the tendon
where his legs meet his groin, I turned him onto his stomach and stretched
out atop his perfect body, my cock wedged in his crack.  It didn't take
long for him to be pushing back against my cock.  I moved lower and rose to
my knees and took in his perfect body, broad shoulders, veed into a small
waist anchored to the most perfect bubble butt imaginable.  I placed a hand
on each cheek, spread them slightly and buried my face into his butt, my
tongue stabbing at his entrance.

Jerry screamed then rose to his knees and pushed back hard against my
tongue and face.

"Oh jeezus...oh fuck!!!  ROBBIE!...oh fuck...that feels so good.
Damn... deeper babe...harder...oh shit...I'm gonna shoot... stop!...not
yet...too soon...Oh!  Too intense...oh fuck...who knew that could feel so
good!!!

When I eased off he was gasping, and his butt was pushing back against me
like he had not control.  He wanted me to back off and not make him cum but
he wanted my tongues back probing in his hole.  I was sure no one had ever
done this to him, he kept looking over his shoulder and pushing back.
Again he reached back, put his hand behind my head and pulled me harder
into his butt.  I enjoyed his reaction as I licked and laved at his
entrance again.  I raised up and stretched out atop him again.

"Jeez Robbie...I've never felt anything like that before.  I would have
never guessed that to be sexy, but DAMN!...It's not fair, now I want
something there, touching me there."

Knowing he was sloppy wet, I eased a finger inside him and his eyes opened
wide.  I kissed him and took his mind off my finger in his butt, or so I
thought.  I swirled by finger a bit, stroking, pushing, then I crooked my
finger and felt for his prostate.  Once I stroked over that magic button he
went wild.  He wanted more fingers, more stroking the gland then finally he
was asking for me to put my cock in him.  The foreplay and build up was
slow and deliberate.  Sometimes I would get aggressive and swallow all of
his cock while my fingers were moving in and out of his ass, probing,
stroking and I would press the head of my cock against his anus, making him
moan loudly,

When I had lubed him and my cock liberally the next time he pushed his butt
back the head of my cock slipped inside him.  His eyes went wide as
saucers, then slammed shut as he grimaced in pain.  I leaned down and
kissed him deeply, then cooed and sweet talked him, telling him how good he
felt, how much fun we were going to have now that we didn't have to pretend
anymore, how I was so crazy about him. Kissing him, my tongue probing in
his ear.

In a matter of moments he was pulling on my thighs, wanting my cock deeper
inside him.  It was slow going in, but he seemed to enjoy these new
feelings coursing through his mind and body.  I saw on his face the moment
when the pain changed to pleasure.  St first he had an astonished look, not
quite believing what he was feeling, then when I ground hard against his
pelvic bone his eyes opened and he yelled.

"Ohmigod...Robbie!!  More...I love it babe...fuck me Robbie..fuck me good
babe, jeezus, how could anything feel this good...oh shit...ungh!
Yes...yes...oh Rob...fuck me baby, do me...I never knew...this is so good,
your so good."

A slight change in position had me rubbing against his prostate with every
stroke of my stonel hard cock.  It only took seconds for a steady stream of
pre-cum to flow from his cock, then in just a few seconds more, Jerry's
eyes rolled back and he was gone to that place.  He was lost to everything
but these new unknown sensations traveling from his butt to his brain while
my cock massaged his prostate as I pumped in and out of of his virgin butt.

Jerry was so into my cock churning in his guts that he flooded his chest
and mine with his semen, unable to tell me he was at the brink.  He tensed
his entire body and all I heard was an animal growl from deep within him as
his pleasure drew his semen from his testicles and spewed it out covering
both of us while mine filled his bowels and ran out of his butt and puddled
onto the sheets.  I collapsed into his arms and we lay silent for what
seemed like hours, but in reality was only moments.

When we were breathing normal again he slowly opened his eyes and the
crooked grin that always gets me spread across his face.

"Thank you Robbie.  That was the most fantastic orgasm I've ever had..
What we just did...that was the most unbelievable feeling.  I've never cum
so much or so hard.  You've overwhelmed me!  That was truly making love.You
fucked my body and my mind all at the same time.  You're going to be doing
that to me a lot Robbie, I never had a clue making love could feel so
wonderful."

He pulled me into the softest, most tender kiss imaginable, I felt so
sated, my entire body trembled from the physical and emotional orgasm, our
making love burst upon me, like an explosion inside, the joy and happiness
I felt flowing into me from his kisses could only escape in my tears.  We
fell asleep each holding the other tightly to him.

When I woke, Jerry was spooned against my back, his arm across my chest
hugging me to him.  I nestled back against him wriggling my body to get
more of him against my skin.  I felt his cock hardening and lengthening
against me, I wiggled more, pushing back against him harder.  I wanted him
inside me but knew it would really be a stretch for me.  His size was more
than I've ever taken and it's been months since I've had sex.  Never the
less. I will have him.  I pushed back against him, he moaned lightly and
kissed my neck.

"Mmmm you feel so good, waking in your arms is the best.  Umm babe, Why
don't you put that hard cock of yours where it belongs, babe.  I want you,
make love to me Jerry, fill me with your fat cock.  Mmm you feel so good"

I felt the cool lube against my hole as he probed me with his fingers.  I
had to turn and lay on my back.  No way was I going to miss watching his
beautiful face as he made love to me this first time.  While it had been
some time since I last had sex, my desire and lust for him made me open
easily for his hard, probing cock.  He gasped aloud and his eyes went wide
when I locked my ankles around him and pulled him hard into me.  His fat
cock went halfway into me in one plunge.

"Oh sweet jeezus Robbie...you feel so good.  Take me!  Oh baby...so good!!!

Almost immediately he recoiled and plunged deeper into me.  It only took
three hard strokes and we were grinding against each other hard, trying to
get more of him into me.  His eyes were closed and his face twisted in a
pleasure grimace, I began throwing my hips up to meet his downward thrust,
making both of us grunt deeply.  Sweat was pouring off us, as we increased
the pace, we were into the rhythm of the fuck.  I pulled him down to kiss
as his hips were only a blur as he drove into me, my feet bounced in the
air with my toes curled so tightly they hurt.

It only took a few moments for him to send me away,I reached that place
where there was only one thing in my world right then, this wonderful man
who was satisfying the need deep inside me for his hard cock.  It was never
enough, no matter how deep the penetration nor how large the cock, I wanted
more, needed more, deeper, harder, faster.

"Ooohhh...Fuckkk...it!!!...your cock is so big...uuuggghhh!  JERRY!!!"

Suddenly Jerry Froze on the plunge in, pushing down hard while I pushed up
hard.  Semen streamed from my cock, the first volley went over my head,
then onto my chest and finally puddling in the tensed ripples of my
abdomen. The veins and vessels in Jerry's neck were bulging, then he roared
with a growl like I have never heard as his hot semen filled me to
overflowing searing my guts with its heat.  Two more hard thrusts, and
another hard grind and he collapsed atop me, we both gasped for air.

I'm not sure how long we napped but the cum between us was dry, gluing us
together.  There was a delicious ache in my testicles and my butt.  The
sheets were covered in puddles of semen.  I wanted to open my eyes but the
lids were just too heavy now.  I snuggled closer to Jerry and rested.  I
guess we napped again.  I woke to a gentle shaking of the bed and slowly I
realized that Jerry was laughing softly.  I forced my eyes open to look at
him.

"Hey there Robbie, we did that pretty good, don't you think?"

"Yeah, not bad for your first fuck, a little more practice and we'll have
it down pretty good?"

Now I was tickled and began to giggle with him.  We both ended up laughing
so hard there were tears in our eyes.  Finally the giggles subsided and we
lay together, staring into each others eyes.  I knew without any doubt that
here was the man of my dreams.  I've never felt anything like those
feelings when we were lost in the act of love, our animal like rut was
simply beyond words.  I can hardly wait to do that again.

"It's weird how things work out.  Sixteen years ago we were sitting on the
bench together on the basketball team and I had the biggest crush on Jerry
Shipley, just like all the girls did.  Now here we are starting a life
together.  Who would have ever guessed that I would be the one to get you."

Jerry leaned over to kiss me and said.

"Good things come to those who wait as the old saying goes.  I can't get
over how good this feels Rob.  I've spilled out a bucket full of cum
thinking of you and I together like this over the past month.  Come, lets
take shower babe."

He pulled me up and out of bed and we staggered to the shower and let the
water wash us off while we kissed and hugged.  He had his arms around me as
we kissed and my hands were on his cock and testiscles.  He was rock hard
again in less than a minute, I turned in his arms, rose on my tiptoes,
guided his cock to my entrance and settled back down as he slipped in
easily this time, filling me again and making me sigh in contentment with
him inside me.  I leaned forward, hands against the shower stall, arched my
back offering up myself for his pleasure, he took me again.  All the same
fantastic and familiar feelings were there as we climaxed again but there
was very little semen again so soon.

I had to sit down in the shower, my legs couldn't hold me up any longer.
Jerry sat and pulled me up to rest against his chest and between his legs
as we lay there with the water raining down on us, I turned to lay on him,
chest to chest, we were in absolute and completely sated emotionally and
sexually.  Pure and utter bliss.

When we finally managed to stand we rinsed off all the semen, dried each
other off and fell back into bed.  I woke to the phone ringing; it was the
front desk reminding us of check out time.  We managed to get dressed and
headed back home, I followed him and I know I smiled the entire seventy or
so miles.  He even called me on my cell with me right behind him.

"I just had to hear your voice Robbie. My face hurts from grinning the
whole afternoon."

"Me too.  I'd forgotten this part, the goofy grins, how it feels, afraid of
waking and it being just a dream. "

"We're real Rob.  last night and today...you and me...this is all real,
we're real babe."

After another thirty miles or so Jerry pulled off into a rest stop area on
the highway.  He came and jumped into my car and pulled my face to his as
he kissed me deeply.  When it was over, he laughed.

"Thanks Mister, follow me home and I'll let you fuck my butt."

"Drive man, drive!" I added

We arrived back at my place just before four p.m. and I called Mom to let
her know I was home and asked her to come over for supper with Jerry and I.

When I hung up the phone Jerry had his head in the fridge and he came out
with his arms full and started in making our supper.  Mom came over and She
and I sat at the island and the three of us chatted while Jerry whipped up
a Lemon Chicken Stir fry with sugar snap peas, carrots, scallions, red,
yellow and green bell peppers over flat buttered noodles with a delicate
lemon cream sauce with a dash of lemon zest.  I'm continually amazed at the
man's cooking skills, it all looked so effortless for him and it was so
delicious.  My Mom asked for the sauce recipe, she wanted to take the dish
to her office for their next buffet.

After we finished I sent Jerry and Mom to the family room while I cleaned
up then finished with the clean up I turned on the dishwasher and went to
join them.  I found them deep in discussion about his Mom's family and how
she knew his grandparents just down the street from her house.  I watched
them quietly and it was like Mom had gained another son.  He was so
attentive to her and she ate it up.  She held his hand when he talked about
his Mom and her struggle with Cancer before she passed away.  I poured the
three of us a bit of brandy and Mom protested loudly but drank every drop.

It was nearing eight p.m. when she decided she should get back home, I went
to get her coat and Jerry helped her into it and he walked her across my
back yard and into hers.  When he came back I met him at the door and it
wasn't closed good before I was kissing him, we were nearly the same size
and our bodies molded nicely together.  I thanked him for seeing her home
and asked if he wanted to stay here tonight or we could go to his place.

"Let's stay here Robbie, finally I get to sleep in your bed instead of
being put into the guest room!"

"Well, you'll be in my bed but I'm not sure how much sleeping you'll get to
do.  I'm gonna be all over your gorgeous self all night."

"Maybe we should run over to my place and let me get some things, clothes,
shaving gear and stuff.  Then we can come back here.  We haven't had time
to talk about it but I would really like for us to live together it that's
okay with you."

"Babe, it's so okay with me you wouldn't believe!  We'll live anywhere you
want!"

I like your place, this old house has character and I know we can be a
great help and comfort to your Mom.  By the way, she told me when I walked
her home that she would be my Mom now.  I guess she doesn't have any
problems about us."

I laughed out loud."Jer, do you remember us running into you after church a
week or so ago?  On the way home she told me that you and I would make a
great couple.  I told her that I didn't even know if you were `like me',
meaning Gay but trying to not say the words to her.  She looked me straight
in the eyes and told me; `Robbie, Jerry is like you, I see the way he looks
at you.'  I was surprised she knew, even more so when she told me she has
known since I was 12 that I was different.  The funniest thing though is
when you first kissed me last night, the first thought in my head was
`Mom's right, he is gay.'  Crazy I know."

He pulled me in for another long steamy kiss that left me wobbly kneed and
reached for his coat and said let's go to his place and get his things.So
much for those magic moments.  I had to rearrange my self in my jeans and
grabbed the keys and my coat and we piled into his car and were off.

Later after a steamy shower and in bed again we took our time, cuddling,
kissing, talking and playing with each others body.  I found out he was
very ticklish in several places and the places that were his hot spots and
turned him on.  Once I just sat up on my knees and looked at his naked
body.  The hairy chest and treasure trail were big turn ons for me.  My
cock was standing tall just looking at his beautiful body, He gave a
chuckle and that silly crooked grin as he wrapped his palm and fingers
around my very hard cock.  He looked up to my eyes.

"You know I'm a bit crazy for you, don't you Rob.  It's like I just started
living again last night."

"I know Jer, it the same with me.  I don't ever want to be anywhere but
where you are, and this is just the beginning!  You make me happy.  Being
friends was really great but now...this...the way we are...it's the best
feeling ever".

I stretched out beside, our bodies touching from our lips to our toes, me
kissing his handsome face.  After the kiss he looked into my eyes, his
smile fading to a serious look. He said...

"I can't help it, I've tried to hold it back but I can't, I love you Rob, I
really do."

It took a moment as I choked back the tears that welled in my eyes and that
aching bubble in my throat that kept me from speaking.  finally I was able
to croak."

"And I love you Jerry Shipley. Now and always. I love you."



The Beginning!
