Thank you again for reading my story and for your
patience in waiting for this chapter.

	Ted was so silly two days before we were due to go
down to my parents' home. Yep, it finally arrived!
Sigh, it would be even better if he were to kiss me
under the mistletoe, on Christmas morning of course.
*BLUSH* I would have gone to paradise then, sooner
than expected maybe, but definitely worth it. Anyway,
back to Ted's antic that morning. He woke up, rushed
into my bedroom--how rude was that :-) and told me
that he could hardly wait to see my parents. Now, that
was something else! If I were him, I would rather stay
at home with my lover, just the two of us. How
romantic! The point that I did not understand was his
enthusiasm. I mean, what was there to be so excited
about seeing my family for the first time? He was not
going there and asked for my parents' approval to
"marry" me, was he? Yeah, right! Pigs fly!! He was
going there as a friend, nothing more, so stopped
flapping your wings and got back down to earth,
loverboy. Sigh, I knew that daydreaming would be
useless, but it was where I could safely imagine him
kissing me and stuff. You know?! Hehehe!
	I woke up due to his inconsideration, but had to
laugh when Isaw his eager look. Gosh, this guy was
good looking even though he had just woken up, as
apparent from his untidy mop of blond hair. Did he not
know that he had just melted my anger at him for
waking me up at this unGodly hour of...? Hmm, what
time was it now? Sigh, I knew it!! It was only half
past seven and I did not have to go to work, and here
he was, "my lover," sitting right next to me on my
bed. If he were really my lover, I would not hesitate
kissing him senseless as a "punishment" for disturbing
my beauty sleep. Hehehe! It would be remain a dream, I
guess.
	"What is there to be so excited about, Ted?" I mocked
irritation while looking at him, beautiful eyes so
blue, lips so sexy and kissable. "Stop that, dude! Or
he will run away from you," I thought to myself.
	"Well, it is my first time, Jeremy. Meeting your
parents and relatives, spending Christmas with you...I
am just so excited." He looked so sincere and eager
that I was touched. Falling for a gorgeous guy was
hard enough without him having to be so sweet and made
my heart thumped louder than I ever thought possible.
Sigh, a guy with a look to die for and a matching
personality. Sure, he was not perfect in some ways,
but he was more than good enough.
	"Hmm, you sound like you are so desperate for me or
something. Sigh, it is such an honor," I teased and
before long he was tickling me all over.
	"Say you are sorry, NOW," he exclaimed with the
laughter apprent in his voice.
	"Okay, "You are sorry." How is that?"
	"Now, you ask for it. I will not stop tickling you
till you apologize with more sincerity and the right
way, of course," he was laughing louder now.
	"Okay, okay. I am sorry, Sir!" He then stopped the
"torture," but strange enough, I was kind of
disappointed because I was hoping that we would
maintain that little body contact. Sigh, was this
LOVE? It was so bittersweet, a feeling that was
different entirely to the one that I had for Anthony.
I was feeling guilty because I had not thought of him
at all these past few days since Ted came into my life
and my heart, not to mention the various erotic dreams
I had with him.
	"So, my parents will meet us at your parents' home
one day before Christmas eve. Have you packed the
gifts and your luggage?" Ted asked me.
	"Well, don't exaggerate, Ted. You know I will be
bringing only some stuff over," I was feeling sort of
annoyed because of the two big suitcases that I would
be bringing. They contained the gifts and clothes for
change. Actually, I realized that Ted was right. We
were only going down for less than two weeks, so the
suitcases seemed to be too much. Hehehe! *WINK*
	"Hey, will you accompany me to the mall today? I need
to buy gifts for your family"
	"Ted, you don't have to, really. Just come and enjoy
yourself. Mum had told me to refrain you from buying
gifts. She is so overjoyed to know that you and your
parents will be celebrating with us. Now that I think
of it, I am jealous that she sounds happier than when
I told her that I would be coming down alone," I
pretended to look indignant and hurt.
	"Hey, c'mon. Stop that routine of "I am so hurt." You
know that you can't fool me."
	"You are no fun," still a look of mocking annoyance
on my face.
	"Okay, I will k...I mean, hug you to soothe your
heart and pride. Just for the record, I have always
been lovable, you know," he changed what he was going
to say so suddenly that I was kind of taken aback. Was
he going to say what I thought he was going to say?
Before I could think any further, Ted wrapped me in
his arms and gave me a really tight hug, as if he
would never let me go. It was a feeling of pure bliss,
so warm and wanted. It did not last long though
because he released me just as suddenly.
	"Thanks, Ted. That is so sweet."
	"Hey, buddy. Don't look so touched. You make me
blush, you know," he said softly. Sure enough, his
ears are turning a really dark shade of red.
	"Hahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ted, Ted, look. Your
ears!! Hahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
	"Fine, laugh at me! Laugh all you want, but remember
that you will not have anybody to hug you next time if
ever you need it again," he looked so hurt that I
sobered immediately.
	"Ted, I am sorry, buddy. C'mon, give me a smile," I
was so worried that I didn't see the smile coming.
"Ohh, fine! Now it is your turn to laugh at me. Just
see who is going to help you if you ever need one."
	"Okay, Jeremy. I am sorry, please, please."
	"Well, it is accepted, though it does not appease me
much. So, what's your plan for the day?"
	"I wanna go and buy the gifts, remember? No, don't
stop me. I want to, okay?" Ted looked so earnest that
it was hard for me to oppose his idea. Well, it seemed
that I had been giving in to him a lot lately! This
had to be the power of love. Hehehe! He had
compromised too, but not as much as me.
	"Hmm, then will you go out and take a shower? I need
to wash myself too, you know? Don't wanna go out
having the smell of pigs and a matching dragon
breath!"
	"Well, I am thinking that maybe we can shower
together, you know? It will be fun. I used to do that
a lot with my friends when I was young."
	"You are only one year older than me, for goodness
sake! "When I was young," indeed! 24 is not old, Ted!"
	"Well, yeah! Hehehe. So, how about the shower?" He
asked me again. I was tempted, but I was afraid that I
would get a boner, seeing him fully naked for the
first time.
	"Are you sure? I mean, it will be kind of awkward,
no?"
	"What's wrong, man? You never see a naked man
before?" He winked at me this time and well, I made up
my mind. What the heck?
	"Fine, if I get a boner and need to jerk off, it is
all your fault. I...I mean, not from looking at you,
but I woke up with a boner and may need to jerk off,
you know?" I was not lying about the morning boner
though, it was there after one of the erotic dreams I
had about me and Ted in bed. *BLUSH*
	"Hehehe! No problem, man. We can do it together," he
replied, surprising me again. This idea was fantastic!
Hehehe!
	"Okay, you are on."
	A few minutes later, we were in the shower, and true
to his words, Ted started jerking off. He had a
slender penis, around 7 inches. Mine was 1 inch
shorter, but definitely thicker. *BLUSH* Anyway, there
we were wanking and I was fascinated by his dick,
fantasizing that I was licking it, sucking it. I
didn't last long and came after a while. Then, Ted
followed me soon after. We finished showering and got
ready to go to the mall. I was feeling a bit strange
now, after that wanking session in the shower, but Ted
did not seemed in the least bit bothered. In fact, he
was as energized as ever. We rushed from one shop to
another, buying the gifts and arguing over them, but I
did not feel up to our usual bartering. Fortunately,
Ted did not seem to notice the slight change in me. It
would be awkward if he did.
	After the shopping trip was over, I helped Ted to
wrap the presents and put them in a big box. We did
not talk much during the wrapping of gifts, but Ted
seemed to be content with the silence, yet I had so
much that I would like to say. I couldn't tell him my
feeling though.
	Just as I was getting up to go back to my bedroom,
Ted suddenly called out. "Hey, Jeremy. Have I offended
you somehow? You were so quiet all the way since...you
know, after shower."
	"No, Ted. I am just tired, that's all. I'm fine,
really." Before I knew it, Ted rushed towards me and
embraced me tightly. I was so surprised that I fell
down, and he was lying on top of me.
	"Promise me, Jeremy. Don't ever leave me! Please!" He
was crying now and I didn't understand any of it.
	"Hush, Ted. What's wrong, buddy? Hey, c'mon. Don't
scare me. Tell me what's wrong," I urged him. He
looked so miserable that tears started to form in my
eyes and rolled down my cheeks. After sobbing for a
while, Ted gazed into my eyes and our eyes met.
	"Nothing, I'm sorry!" He replied. Then, just as
quickly, he rolled away from me and stood up, walking
back to his room. I was furious though and without
realizing what I was doing, I rushed towards him and
turned his face to meet mine.
	"No way I'm letting you off this time. You'd better
tell me what's wrong!" I shouted.
	"I told you already: NOTHING!" He shouted back at me
just as loudly. We stared at each other with apparent
anger and frustration.
	"Look, Jeremy. I don't wanna fight you, okay? We will
both be hurt," he said to me finally. "I am fine,
really. I am sorry." He looked at me, pleading
silently that I would understand.
	I relinquished my hold on him then. "No, I am sorry.
Fine, if you don't wanna talk about it, just know that
if you need to talk, you can always...you know," I
said softly, not trusting the emotions that were
threatening to engulf me.
	"Thanks, buddy," he hugged me again, but with
gratitude. That wasn't what I wanted from him, though
I knew that there was nothing more I could ask of him.
Then, he slowly pulled away from me and kissed me on
my right cheek. His lips felt so soft and tender, my
heart was aching even more at this knowledge. I
realized that he would never be mine.
	"Well, go and sleep, dude. I need some rest too," I
told him and went into my room. Sleep was ever elusive
that night, and I had to cry myself to sleep. The next
morning, I woke up feeling worse than last night. I
wasn't sure how to face him and didn't fancy he would
feel more comfortable seeing me. Sigh, I had to
pretend that everything was all right, and this was
worst. My love for him made it harder for me to ignore
him.
	After a refreshing shower, I opened the door and was
surprised to see him leaning against the wall outside
my bedroom. "Ted, Ted! Wake up," I shouted louder than
I meant to.
	"Hi, sorry. I was waiting for you," he said in a
voice that sounded really tired.
	"What do you mean?" I was puzzled.
	"Well, I...I knocked the door a few hours ago, but
you were obviously still asleep," he said softly,
sounding almost guilty.
	"What!!!" I exclaimed. "Do you know what you are
saying? You had waited hours here? Why?"
	"I feel bad about last night and I thought...well,"
he replied.
	"Oh, Ted! I told you it was fine and I am sorry too,"
I looked at him, not really knowing what else to tell
him. He was just too good to be true. I was the one
who almost exploded with anger last night, and here he
was apologizing to me.
	"Jeremy, I...hmm, I mean, we need to talk," he said
suddenly. His expression was so solemn that I was
feeling apprehensive about whatever we would be
discussing. We walked towards the living room and sat
down on the sofa, facing each other.
	"So...what's the matter?" I asked.
	"I'm gay," he told me softly, quickly turning away
from me. I thought I had gone to heaven then because I
was so shocked and maybe had a sudden heart attack. I
never expected him to say something like this. My
expression must have conveyed my emotion so strongly
that he began to cry.
	"I'm sorry that I never told you this. I have fallen
for you since that morning when I woke up after the
night you rescued me. I was beaten by some people who
knew that I am gay. I heard that they had been
arrested, but I could not tell you for fear of you
knowing that I am gay. I love you, Jeremy. I know that
you do not feel the same about me, but I can't hold
back anymore," he spoke so fast that I could hardly
register totally what he was saying to me. The only
part that I understood fully was "I love you, Jeremy."
"I will move out as quickly as I find a new place to
stay. I am sorry." He cried louder now and I tried to
say something, but no words came out of my mouth.
	"Ted, listen. You don't have to. You...," I barely
finished what I wanted to say before Ted cut in.
	"No, it's okay, Jeremy. I do not want to jeopardize
our friendship as it is, and I...," I did not wait for
him to finish the sentence and kissed him on the lips.
Then, our tongues danced erotically in each other's
mouth. After a while, I licked his tear-stained cheeks
and pulled back, looking him straight in the eyes.
	"How is that for "I love you, Ted"?" I asked him.
	"I...I was...well, what the heck?" He leaned towards
me and we kissed with all suppressed passion of weeks
gone by. His tongue delved into my mouth and mated
with my tongue once again. Our breathing heavy and we
had kissed for some minutes now, but neither wanted to
stop. Ted pushed me back onto the sofa, slowly sliding
on top of me. I could feel the evidence of his arousal
as surely as he could feel mine. His hands caressed my
hair and I rested mine on his shoulders. Nothing
existed but this moment.
	"Ahh, Ted...we ha...have t...to stop," I panted out.
"Whew, man! You are one hot kisser."
	"Nah, not as hot as you," he smiled at me. His hands
were still tangled up in my hair, and he looked so
adorable.
	"Well, that's true. You are quite bad," I teased.
Without warning, he started to rub our arousal against
each other, and I moaned.
	"Say: "You're sorry." C'mon!" Ted grinned wider now,
realizing that I was grinding back against him.
	"Well, I kind of enjoy this. No, I ain't gonna say
it," I retorted, smiling back at him.
	"Fine, you gorgeous devil. You asked for it!" He
kissed me again and our tongues tasted each other,
intertwining and licking. Meanwhile, Ted continued to
rub me against him and the silence was broken only by
the sound of our breathing, which was getting louder.
	Slowly, I took off his shirt and kissed my way down
his throat, eliciting a guttural moan. This was
obviously a sensitive part. I licked all around it and
went down to his nipples. As I sucked and bit each one
in turn, his moans came louder and he was now writhing
on top of me. Then, I took off his shorts. He was not
wearing anything under it, so his cock just sprang
straight out at me and I licked it all around, kissing
the base, his balls and slowly licked my way up to the
head and tasted the pre-cum on it. By now, he was
moving restlessly on me, begging me to take his dick
into my mouth. I chuckled softly, and decided to
torture him a while longer. I continued to kiss the
head and licking the tip while he tried in vain to
push it into my mouth.
	When he begged me again, I decided to stop the sweet
torment and engulfed his cock fully. I had to control
my gag reflex and acted as if I wanted to swallow his
7 inches. He groaned and purred, and I sucked harder.
As I went up and down on his dick, Ted started to
unbutton my shirt by pulling my shirt up and finally
got it off. Then, he turned me so I was on top of him.
I kept on sucking at his dick, eliciting more
appreciative moans and groans. I began to lick his
cock again, down to the balls, taking one by one into
my mouth and sucked them. He moaned louder and this
urged me on. After a while, I took his cock back into
my mouth and sucked them earnestly.
	"Ahhh, Jer...Je...stop, I'm gonna cum soon." I
stopped then and looked up at his face. He was
breathing rather heavily and I was pleased that he
seemed to have enjoyed my "treatment." "Your turn,
love," he breathed out.
	Then, he took off my shorts and smiled when my hard 6
inches came to view. He licked and kissed the tip,
slowly taking the head into his mouth. His tongue
continued to lick the tip, and I moaned. 		"Ahh,
yes...yes...Ted. Take it, take my cock into your
mou...ahhhhh," I did not manage to finish my sentence
and he had taken my whole length into his mouth. Gosh,
it felt so good! Then, we got into a 69 position and
started sucking harder. I paid special attention to
the spot underneath his cock and licked the part
before sucking his whole manhood in my mouth.
	"I'm cumming, Jeremy. I...ahhhhhhhhh," I sucked
harder and swallowed every drop of his cum. He just
moaned louder, apparently enjoying this. I had not
finished sucking him dry when he took my cock back
into his mouth and started sucking harder and before
long, he swallowed every drop of my cum. The sensation
was so intense I felt that I was seeing stars right
before my eyes.
	After resting for a while, we kissed and I could
taste the smell of cum in his mouth. We broke the kiss
almost at the same time and grinned at each other.
	"I love you, Ted."
	"I love you, Jeremy."
	We said spontaneously at the same time that we ended
up laughing and I kissed him again for a while. I was
so happy that I almost forgot about last night.
	"So, you really are in love with me, Jeremy?"
	"Definitely. I think I fell for you the night I
brought you home. I was so frustrated, thinking that
you would never be mine," I replied, still smiling
like an idiot.
	"I'm so happy!! Thanks, I love you too. I used to
fend off the frustration in me working out like...I
don't know. I was just so stressed out, you know," he
smiled at me with that smile that I loved so much. We
kissed for a few more minutes before getting up to
take a shower together.

Hi, everyone. Now, please do not complain! I know that
I told some readers that this next part will come out
in a month, but I was so anxious to get it posted
sooner that I finished the story earlier. Well, here
it is! Comments are welcome as usual.
