Chapter 2 Lover After

	Davey drove down the street listening to the radio and a familiar
song came on, Savage Garden's "The Lover After Me".  Davey knew the words
and sang along with the music.

	Here I go again I promised myself I wouldn't think of you today
	It's been seven months and counting
	You've moved on
	I still feel exactly the same
	It's just that everywhere I go all the buildings know your name
	Like photographs and memories of love
	Steel and granite reminders
	The city calls your name and I can't move on

Davey pulled up to the curb and got out of the car.  Walking down the
sidewalk of the familiar neighborhood, he came to Harris's home.  The
lights were out on the ground floor, but the upstairs was glowing with the
incandescent lights.  Harris's room was in the back so Davey snuck around
back to find the back door open and Harris standing there talking to
someone.  They were laughing and chuckling.
	Davey dodged behind the bushes watching and listening.  He couldn't
understand all Harris was saying to the other young guy, but they seemed to
be friends.  The guy had long, dark hair which he kept back in a pony tail.
He was a little older than Harris and Davey.  The young mutant felt
jealousy stir up inside.
	`How can I be jealous when I caused this to happen in the first
place?' he thought.
	"Thanks, Robert," he said as he hugged the guy.  Then, Robert
turned and left.  Harris shut the door and Davey heard it lock.

	Am I all alone in the universe?
	There's no love on these streets
	I have given mine away to a world that didn't want it anyway
	So this is my new freedom
	It's funny
	I don't remember being chained
	But nothing seems to make sense anymore
	Without you I'm always twenty minutes late

	Ever since you've been gone
	The lights go out the same
	The only difference is
	You call another name
	To your love
	To your lover now
	To your love
	The lover after me

	And time goes by so slowly
	The nights are cold and lonely
	I shouldn't be holding on
	But I'm still holding on for you

Davey climbed out of the bushes and walked further into the backyard and
looked up at Harris's window.  After a few minutes the lights went out and
Davey whispered, "Harris."

	Here I go again
	I promised myself I wouldn't think of you today
	But I'm standing at your doorway
	I'm calling out your name because I can't move on

	Ever since you've been gone
	The lights go out the same
	The only difference is
	You call another name
	To your love
	To your lover now
	To your love
	The lover after me

Davey walked past the house and back to his car, where he climbed in,
started the engine and drove away.

	Blade and Punisher stood near the pond.  Punisher stared into the
water.  Blade, slowly, put his arm around Punisher and gave him a squeeze.
Punisher reached around Blade and held him at the waist.
	"Where are you?" Blade asked.  The question would appear confusing
to anyone who did not know what these two went through, but if the listener
knew that, over the past few months Blade worked with Michael,
a.k.a. Punisher, on what he did to a young boy a few months ago.
	Ever since Michael forced anal sex on a young boy for "punishment",
the guilt of himself committing a crime has overwhelmed him.  Blade spoke
with him on many occasions, telling him that everyone makes mistakes at
some point in their life, that everybody is human.  He even brought up
Davey as an example.  Michael understood, but he often went into his mind,
going back to whom he has punished and why, and doubting his own
accomplishments because of the one failure he committed.
	"I'm just thinking," Michael said, "about all I've done.  It's hard
to allow myself freedom from guilt when I belong in the same category as
those I've punished."
	"If it weren't for you, how many others would have been killed by
Reverend Exeter and the Ohio branch of the Friends of Humanity?  If it
weren't for you, Johnny and his family would have been killed.  You sell
the good you HAVE done short for the one bad thing you did.  Don't do
that."
	Michael stood quietly for a moment looking at the water, feeling
the cool breeze on his skin.  He enjoyed the night, especially at the
mansion.  The environment gave the illusion of peace and safety and
freedom, feelings the day never gave.
	"I've fought a lot of demons in my life," Blade stated, "a lot of
monsters, both human and otherwise.  Lots before I met you.  I'm sure I
will be fighting them until the day I die.  But the one thing that makes
you different from all of them, what makes your crime different from all of
theirs."  Blade waited until Michael turned to look into his eyes, to know
that Michael's attention was completely his.  "You have remorse."  Blade
again waited, this time for his words to sink into Michael's mind.  "You
cared that you did something wrong.  That's something none of those we've
gone after never had.  They don't care of the hundreds they've hurt.  They
don't care that they may have done something wrong.  You do.  That makes
you different.  That makes you better than them."
	Michael cracked a slight smile at Blade's words.  Blade smiled and
ruffled Michael's hair.  "I know you're a tough guy, Michael.  But there is
a heart underneath all of that rough exterior, a soft hear that cares.  If
there wasn't, you wouldn't do what you do.  Now, let's go fuck."
	Michael couldn't help but laugh.  Blade laughed, too.
	"You realize that we can't tell anyone that we smiled and laughed,
don't you?" Michael said.
	"Oh, yeah.  They would never let us live it down.  Come on."

	Once in the bedroom and Blade shut the door, the two hot, muscular
men were on each other.  Their tongues ravaged each other's mouth as their
hands worked their clothing down.  Michael got Blade's black muscle shirt
off and was tonguing the dark-skinned man's smooth chest, tonguing his
nipples and running it down his abs.  Michael unbuttoned Blade's leather
pants and slid the skintight material down and off his feet, exposing black
bikini brief's encasing a nearly ten-inch long, six-inch thick cock.
Blade's balls stretched the bottom of the material while his cock stretched
the rest of the front part.
	Michael's tongue darted out and licked him through the material.
Then, he pulled the garment down exposing Blade's long, thick, rigid dick.
The shape was the perfect shape, long and smooth with a perfect mushroom
head.  The color was that of chocolate and contrasted greatly with the pink
lips and peach skin which encased it.  Michael swallowed the entire length
to the neatly trimmed pubes resting at the base of Blade's cock.  He
swallowed to make sure it went all the way in, making room down his throat
for Blade's enormous dick.
	"Oh, yeah," Blade moaned.
	Michael's head bobbed back and forth giving Blade an intense
blowjob.  Blade's head lulled back at the pleasure, his right hand running
through Michael's hair as the man knelt and worshipped his cock.
	Then Blade pulled Michael up and tossed him onto the bed where he
pulled down the man's pants and released his eight inch cock.  Blade easily
engulfed the dick before him and created an intense suction around the
piece of meat.  Michael thrashed on the bed at the intense feelings
coursing through his body.  Then Blade pulled off and sucked in one of
Michael's balls.  Blade's hand wrapped around Michael's cock and he gave
the man a hand job while sucking on his heavy, huge sacs.
	Blade moved a little further down, running his tongue over the
sensitive area between the balls and the beginning of the ass crack.  The
sensation shot through Michael.  The half-vampire, half-human continued
down to Michael's hole and his tongue lashed at the erogenous zone sending
pleasure through Michael's body.
	Once Michael was loose and wet, Blade got up on his knees and
placed his large tool at the entrance.  With one quick thrust, he impaled
the human on his dick.  Michael's body tensed at the assault.  Neither man
moved as he felt separate sensations.  Michael relaxed to get used to the
fullness of a cock inside him and Blade marveled at the warmth and
tightness surrounding his cock.
	To Michael's surprise, and added pleasure, Blade bent over and was
able to take a few inches of Michael's cock into his mouth.  He was quickly
rewarded with a dose of pre-cum.  Then the movement began.  Blade pumped in
and out of and up and down on Michael sending waves of pleasure throughout
his body.  Michael's hands reached down to the base of his cock and jacked
the exposed part to the rhythm of Blade's movement.
	Blade, however, didn't like the idea of this.  He pulled out of
Michael abruptly and went to his closet.  Inside the closet was a small
chest.  Opening the chest, he pulled out several leather straps and went to
work.  He strapped Michael's wrists and ankles to the bed posts stretching
out the Adonis and making him very vulnerable.
	"You're the only one I trust to do this," Michael stated.
	Blade didn't say a word but went to work on Michael pounding his
ass and sucking his cock.  It didn't take long before Michael reached his
orgasm and Blade took the entire load down his throat.  He then pulled out
of Michael and unfastened the straps.  He took up position on a chair and
Michael stepped up straddling the black man.  He sank down and felt the
half-human, half-vampire's large dick enter his very loose hole and go deep
inside hitting his prostate gland.  This sent waves of pleasure through
both men.  Then Michael began to work.
	Up and down Michael went on Blade.  His movements became faster and
the chair rocked.  The chair was strategically positioned between two
mirrors so the men could view the activity going on.  Blade watched as his
dark cock disappeared up the light ass.  His balls bounced at the hard and
heavy movement of Michael.  And he felt Michael's cock get hard as it was
sandwiched between their rock-hard, washboard abs.
	"Yeah, Michael, ride me hard!" Blade called out.
	Michael complied and increased his movements.  The chair rocked
back and forth as Michael gave all he could to please Blade.  The bottom
called out as his cock shot for a second time that evening covering Blade's
dark skin with his hot cum.  The contrast of the two colors turned both men
on even more.
	"Ah, shit!  Oh, fuck!" Blade called out.  His orgasm hit and his
cum spewed forth like a geyser.  In the mirror he saw his cum dripping down
his shaft of the asshole he just fucked.  It ran down his shaft onto his
balls as some also just dripped from the hole.
	After his orgasm died down, Blade picked Michael up and sat the man
on his face so he could rim the bottom's ass, using his tongue to dig out
all the cum.  He shoved his fingers up Michael's ass and pulled out a bit
of his cum and fed it to Michael.  Once satisfied, Blade had Michael get
down.  Michael immediately got down on the floor and lapped up his cum from
off Blade's chest and Blade's cum from off Blade's semi-erect cock.
	"Right now, we're two for one," Blade replied.
	"The evening has just begun," Michael replied as he continued to
tongue Blade's cock.
	Once the semi-erect cock gave way to full erection, Michael led
Blade over to the bed where Blade climbed onto the bed on his knees.
Michael climbed onto the bed on all fours and crawled toward Blade's cock
where he sucked it into his mouth.  His other hands explored Blade's balls
and ass.  Then, Michael pulled off, rolled over onto his back, and placed
his head between Blade's knees giving him access to Blade's hole.  He
pulled Blade down a bit so the man was nearly sitting on his face.  He
proceeded to rim out Blade and Blade rocked back and forth on Michael's
tongue.
	"Oh, yeah, that's nice," Blade said.
	Michael's hands reached up and wrapped around Blade's cock.  He
jerked Blade off while eating his ass out.  Blade put his hands behind his
head and leaned back a bit letting Michael pleasure his body.  It wasn't
until too much later that Blade reached the point of orgasm and Michael
moved down sucking on the balls which were drawing up.  He felt the first
wave of cum hit his own cock and abs and then hit his chest.  Michael moved
down even more and wrapped his lips around the head of Blade's cock taking
in the rest of the cum pouring forth.  Blade leaned over into a sixty-nine
position and sucked on Michael's cock cleaning his cum off, then ran his
tongue along Michael's abs and chest until their lips met and they kissed.
	No words were spoken as Blade slid down beside Michael and put his
arms around the man he, surprisingly, developed feelings for.  He couldn't
say that it was love yet.  They hadn't known each other to say it was love.
They certainly developed a fondness for each other as well as a respect for
why they do what they do, as well as their methods for getting the job
done.  But it wasn't completely love.  At this point, neither one cared.
They had the human contact.  And that's what mattered to them at that
moment.
