Date: Sat, 26 Apr 2014 18:10:20 -0700 (PDT) From: Rob Roth <eighty.eight@rocketmail.com> Subject: Dylan's Summer Vacation Two, Chapter 59 DYLAN'S SUMMER VACATION TWO Chapter 59 by Donny Mumford My brother and I had a great afternoon on the beach, we're feeling especially frisky because we caught up on our sleep last night. Actually we slept until almost eleven o'clock this morning. We needed that to recharge our batteries. This morning was also special because I got to give Chubby a haircut, which I always enjoy doing, and then there was this cute kid on our beach too. Well, he was in the water actually. I ran into him while body surfing, sort of accidentally on purpose... haha. He's says he's not gay, but pretended he was for the fun of it. Cute! I repeatedly body surfed into him, getting dunked under the salty water each time, but the awesome bodily contact was well worth getting dunked. He's probably an only child down here with his parents, and not knowing anyone else, he consequently was glad to have a playmate for awhile, so to speak. I'm always happy to accommodate someone cute, like Junior Ryder. I'll be looking for him tomorrow. Chubby's taking a shower, and I'll be doing the same when he's done. Right now I'm on the deck with the moms doing a little front loading in preparation for the beer party Chubby and I are going to later tonight. The moms are enjoying marguerite's and a cigarette, while I'm imbibing a Rolling Rock beer, without a cigarette. Both moms pretend they don't smoke, but Chubby and I know they do, just like they know we smoke, but pretend we don't. We don't smoke in front of the moms to help keep the farce going that we're nonsmokers. Their excuse for smoking in front of me this afternoon is that they're on vacation. I don't know what little white lie number that is for them, but I'm working up in the 6000's with my little white lies... ha ha. I try to be judicious about categorizing lies as little white, basically harmless ones, and real bald faced lies, which I try hard to avoid and only turn to in emergency situations. Tris says, "Dylan, honey, what are you and your brother planning for tonight?" I go, "Just a get together over in Wildwood Crest with some college kids. Chubby ran into a friend from Merrimack on the beach yesterday, and the guy invited us over, sort of." See that wasn't even a little white lie because it was mostly the truth. Sure, I left out 'beer party', but only to spare the moms the need to worry about us. When you basically lie by omission, but for the right reasons, in this case so the moms don't need to worry about us, it isn't a lie at all. It's called being considerate, which we could use more of in this world of ours. Just doing my part to make life relaxing for the family I love. Mom says, "Oh, that's so nice, running into a college friend here in Wildwood. I often wonder why we don't see someone we know from all these people. Don't you, Tris?" Tris takes a tiny sip of her drink, one drink can easily last the moms an hour. Tris answers, "Absolutely, Dee, we've become friends with so many regular customers at the restaurant you'd think we'd run into one or two down here." Mom's like, "I suppose most of them go to the Cape for vacation, wouldn't you think?" I tune out because the moms, God bless 'em, can take an innocuous discussion like this and run with it endlessly, and sure enough mom's now telling Tris about a customer who told her she ran into someone she knows when vacationing in Jamaica... and on and on it goes with Tris remembering a time... but, like I said, I tuned-out so I don't know the rest of that one. I tune-out, but it makes me smile that these two friends of a life time never run out of things to talk about together. It makes me feel warm and cozy inside knowing they share a friendship almost as deeply felt as Chubby's and mine. There's really nothing like a best friend, one who knows and loves everything about you... an unconditional love that you always know is there. Nothing else like it in the world. Done his shower Chubby steps out on the deck shiny clean, then spots my bottle of Rolling Rock, grins at me with his eyes sparkling, and goes back inside. He reappears with a beer of his own along with his awesome smile. He's so fucking cute! His mom says, "Jeff, I love your new haircut. Both you boys are so handsome, you make us so proud. Don't they, Dee?" Chubby and I exchange grins because this is one of the moms' favorite topics, Chubby and me. We sit here grinning and sipping our beer as we savor the familiar compliments, and one of the compliments even supports my earlier premise... my mom says, "And you boys have never given us the worries that some boys cause their poor mothers. You two stay out of trouble, work hard, and take care of yourselves marvelously." Chubby and me mutter our thanks for the compliments, and we even deserve one or two of them. Chubby spots the moms' ashtray and innocently asks, "Have you two taken up smoking cigarettes?" Tris and my mom exchange quick looks, then Tris says, "No, not at all, Jeffrey. It's something we treat ourselves to just when we're on vacation. We figure a few cigarettes won't hurt us." I wonder if that little white lie gets a number for Tris since she already was assigned a little white lie number when she told that whopper to me... hee hee. Done my beer I excuse myself and go inside to take a shower. They're discussing what we'll do about dinner tonight. It seems they're leaning towards takeout seafood again and that's fine with me. The shower really felt great, like showers always do, and then I put my coolest clothes on, which basically consist of the stuff Willie's bought for me over the years. A silky-material black sleeveless t-shirt and tan khaki Bermuda shorts, both bought by Willie in Nordstrom's for about a $100 each. Sleeveless tee 'cause I like my cool tattoo to show and I have biceps that look like I lift, although I've never touched a weight in my life. I'm wearing my Salvatore Ferragamo leather sandals tonight. Willie crazily spent $249 for these babies. The good thing about the expensive stuff is that while it's cool, nobody I hangout with has a clue these things cost as much as they did, and I don't tell 'em either. It's be embarrassing because no one in their right mind would pay that much for these clothes when they don't particularly look expensive. I'd never guess the price of these items either if Willie didn't tell me. Needless to say a person needs to have way too much spendable income, and be a little looney, to pay these stupid prices for things anyone could buy for a fifth the cost, and those clothes would wear and look just as good as these. Same thing applies to my David Yurman cross necklace. This cost a thousand bucks, but you could easily find one just as cool for a fifth the cost and maybe even less than that. Ditto for the sports watch Willie gave me, that I wear almost all the time. I let the necklace hang outside the t-shirt and then I check my hair although there's not much I can do with hair this short. Hmm, checking myself out in the mirror, I look a little like a cute bad-boy with this haircut. I'm feeling really good tonight. When I rejoin Chubby and the mom's, Tris says, "Whoa, looking good tonight, Dylan." I go, "Yeah, I do, don't I?" Chubby tries messy my hair unsuccessfully, saying, "You're gonna show me up tonight, bro. Pull your shirt tail out or something, you look too perfect." I smirk at him because I like compliments, especially from Chubby. The moms changed their minds and now would like us to eat together in-house tonight so Chubby and I quickly volunteer to do the shopping, mostly because the moms have little to no experience doing that. They eat dinner at the restaurant where they work six nights a week, and go out the other night when Chubby and I are at Merrimack and can't prepare dinner on Sunday. We've been doing this food shopping and cooking since we were tweeners at about eleven or twelve years old. We like doing it. Outside, the heat wave has let up a little, now in the low eighties and quite pleasant so we put the windows down in the Jeep, then drive to a farm stand we've used before. There we buy sweet corn on the cob that was picked mere hours ago, and big fat ripe tomatoes and a couple of pickling cucumbers. Then Chubby wants some pole beans to make succotash, so we get a pound of those. He'll make the succotash using fresh cut kernel corn, cut right off the cob, and the pole beans when they've been taken from their pods. That's not for tonight though. At the grocery store we buy chicken parts, heavy on the wings, and from the deli section homemade potato salad, which isn't nearly as good as we make, but we're on vacation so we take a shortcut and buy it. There's a gas grille on the duplex's deck so we'll grille the chicken adding barbecue sauce, that I'll make myself, the last five minutes of cooking time so it gets a slight chard on it. Chubby's in a good mood too, but tells me disturbing news. "Um, Dylan, brother that I love more than life itself, don't get mad, but I invited Jen and her sister to the beer party. Marcus said bring dates if we can find any girl who'd come with us, and I didn't care for that comment. That numbnuts thinks he's a hot shit with that stocky girlfriend of his, and I'm being kind using the word stocky." I'm driving the Jeep listening to this, and now Chubby's looking at me for my reaction, but I have no reaction to his news. He asks, "Are you pissed at me?" I say, "Of course not, bring the girls on. I don't dislike girls, but I don't know why they need to do everything us guys do." Chubby squeezes my hand, saying, "Whew, I thought I was in trouble with my bro." Well I was looking forward to hanging with Chubby tonight, that's true enough, but I can share him. He enjoys the girls so I don't want to ruin it for him by pouting. Anyway, do twenty year old guys pout? I probably will, but I'll reserve a good pout to get my way for something more important than this. At the duplex the moms have finally finished their first drink and are in the kitchen making a big production out of putting together a second one for each of them. Chubby and I grab a beer and wait on the deck for them to finish so as not to be underfoot in the kitchen. The moms need a lot of space, including half the available counter space, to make margaritas. Chubby asks, "Will you, you know, keep Julie company tonight, at least until some guy hits on her and relieves you of that responsibility?" I go, "For you, absolutely." He's like, "You know Julie has a boyfriend, but when she heard you'd be at the party she wanted to come too. She's cheating on her boyfriend, but she insisted on coming anyway because she thinks you're hot." I go, "Well, she's right, I am hot, but not the way she thinks. I guess you didn't mention I'm gay." Swallowing some beer the way Chubby can do it, just letting it flow down his throat without swallowing, he says, "Of course not, it's not my job to run around announcing my brother's gay." I go, "Hey, that sounds like you're ashamed that I'm gay." Chubby says, "That's not it, Dylan, I couldn't be more proud of you, gay or straight. I think you're the most awesome person I've ever met, or ever hope to meet, and I mean that from the bottom of my heart." I go, "Well, okay then. It'd break my fucking heart if you were ashamed I'm gay. We don't choose to be gay, ya know, we're born this way and I for one am happy I was born this way. And I mean no offense or put-down of heterosexual life style at all, I'm just content with being who I am." Chubby mumbles, "Well said, bro," and then he lets more beer flow down his throat. I watch, then say, "Dude, you're going to get drunk doing that. You drink too fast when you don't swallow." He says, "Well if I get drunk you'll take care of me so I'm not worried about it." I go, "Yeah, but how about the hangover tomorrow morning?" He's like, "I'm certainly not going to worry about something that far in my future, I'm rocking the present." The moms come out with their drinks and the ears of corn. My mom says, "We'll shuck the corn boys," and I say, "Be diligent about getting every single silk thread," and the moms laugh, then Tris goes, "Yes, Dylan, we know you're a stickler for that, don't we, Dee?" My mom's like, "Oh yes, we'll be diligent, honey," although they won't be. Chubby and I will get the random threads off before dropping the corn in the pot to cook. Chubby gets the grille going and I go in the kitchen to make the barbecue sauce, but first I get a big pot of water and put it over a high flame on the stove for the corn. Just eyeballing the amounts, I put ketchup, dark brown sugar, honey, spicy brown mustard, and some cider vinegar in a small sauce pan and turn-on the burner to medium.Then I mash a clove of garlic until it's like a paste and dump that in along with a sprinkle of onion powder, garlic powder, and just a tiny bit of clove powder. Lastly some cracked pepper and then stir everything with a small wire whisk. After a couple of minutes I taste it and add more brown sugar and a shot of red hot sauce for a little bit of heat. Chubby comes in to get the chicken, but stops to taste the barbecue sauce. He says, "Perfect as usual," and then he seasons the chicken with salt, pepper, and a dry chicken rub. I say, "Put the thighs and breast on first. Give 'em a head start, then the legs, and lastly the wings." He stares at me until I ask, "What?" and Chubby goes, "Who taught you how to grill chicken?" I shrug, "I don't remember," and he's like, "Think of all your relatives," and I go, "Oh yeah, I guess you did. I'm just reminding you what you told me, that's all. Jeez!" He gives me a hug, then drizzles a little olive oil on each piece of chicken and they go out on a tray to the grille. I spoon the potato salad out of it's container into a serving dish, then slice the tomatoes and cucumbers onto a plate. No salad dressing for tomatoes that are this ripe and fresh. Adding anything to the them except some salt would detract from their flavor, which is perfect as is. The cucumbers get a splash of wine vinegar and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. The moms bring the shucked corn in and then go about setting the table on the deck. Chubby and I examine the ears of corn removing the silk threads missed by the moms, as I ask, "How long till the chicken's done?" Chubby mumbles, "I'm adding your barbecue sauce now, so five minutes. Put the corn in now so it'll be done at the same time as the chicken." What we'll do is eat the corn on the cob as an appetizer while the chicken rests. At the table five minutes later I bring out the corn on the cob, each ear dripping in melted butter and sprinkled with salt. The little white kernels snap when we bite then so that tells me they're cooked perfectly. Yum, yum, delicious. Chubby and I have two ears each, the moms just the one ear each. With our food, we're drinking iced tea the moms made from scratch before going to the beach this morning. That's about the outside limit of their culinary skills, but their awesome at many other things. Chubby and I squeeze wedges of fresh lime into ours iced teas and add lots of sugar, the moms use lemon wedges and just a little sugar. Corn on the cob looks disgusting after it's been eaten so the cobs immediately get tossed in the trash, and then out comes the barbecued chicken, potato salad, and sliced tomato and cucumber plate. Lots of conversation at dinner with the moms excited about their boyfriends joining them tomorrow, while Chubby and me are trying to get our heads around the idea we'll both no longer be teenagers by Friday. It's so pleasant enjoying foods you really like in the company of happy people you love. It's an unsung gift of happenstance that's mostly taken for granted by those of us who experience it, and a heartache for those who don't. After dinner we all help clean up, both the outside table and the kitchen. There are two chicken legs and a breast left over, but cold barbecue chicken won't last long with Chubby and me around. It gets covered and put in the refrigerator. Everything else on the table was consumed during dinner, seventy percent by us boys and the rest by the moms. After eating corn on the cob it's advisable to floss your teeth and brush them good, for obvious reasons. Chubby and I do that and then wash our face and hands and bid the moms a goodnight. They'll have another cocktail talking their never-ending conversation on the deck, maybe watch some TV, and then get to bed early to be fresh for their twin boyfriends tomorrow. This will be the last early night to bed for the moms. They can party with the best of them clubbing with their guys, so they'll undoubtedly be sleeping late and getting to the beach no earlier then noon the rest of the week. As for me, I've had some unexpected luck during this vacation in the romance department, and while I'm not expecting anymore until I get home, I'm definitely not closing the door on any realistic opportunity for more. I'm just not getting my hopes up. We drive off in the Jeep with Chubby at the wheel and me reading the direction we were given by Marcus. The house where the party's at is supposedly located behind the parking lot of The Surf Bar and Grille, but we can't find the damn restaurant. Ya know, someone give's you written directions and tells you to turn right at some street, when they meant to say left, and before you know it you're lost. Chubby pulls over and asks a middle age couple waiting to cross the street if they've heard of the restaurant we're looking for, and the woman says, "Sure, I waitress there," and she gives us directions ending with, "You can't miss it. Order their she-crab soup, it's fantastic." Chubby thanks her and drives off in the direction she told him to, with me asking, "What the hell is she-crab soup?" Chubby says, "We'll probably never know because we're not going in the damn restaurant, we're only going in their parking lot." It only requires Chubby asking one more person how to get to the restaurant and we're there. Chubby says, "We should get a GPS," as he's parking in the lot. We're as far away from the restaurant as it's possible to be. Sure enough, we see a small house down a short embankment with about fifty college-age kids making a lot of noise. We get out of the Jeep and step through the opening between cement barriers that are probably here to keep the restaurant's patrons from driving over the embankment and crashing into the house below. As were negotiating the embankment, being careful not to fall on our ass and make an embarrassing entrance, three guys and two girls get out of a car and follow us, asking, "Is this Al Foster's party?" I go, "Ya got me. We were invited by a friend of a friend," then one of the girls losses her footing and slides down the embankment on her ass. As if that's not bad enough, she's wearing white short that now have a green grass-stained ass. It's hard not to laugh, not that any of us seven bothers trying not to. We're all laughing at the poor girl who slid down the slope, but so is she and it occurs to me these guys are drunk already. There's medium loud music from a CD player, instead of a live band, with some people dancing and a couple conspicuously making out, and mostly a lot of yelling and guzzling beer. No one pays us any attention so Chubby and I look at each other, shrug, and then head for one of the beer kegs. The one with the most kids around it is where they're doing 'keg stand', which means one guys pumps the keg and another guy, in this case a girl wearing very little clothing, pours beer from the keg tap directly into the mouth of a guy sitting with his head back and his mouth open. A number of big mouths are loudly counting out the seconds the drinking guy's been gulping down the beer. We stop to watch this familiar college party ritual, and when the count gets to ten the tap's turned off and everyone cheers the guy in the chair for not throwing up. Chubby shakes his head, muttering, "Childish keg stand." I say, "I believe you got hammered a couple of times over at Tracy's doing keg stands." Chubby makes a face, "That's when I was a freshman." I laugh, and then ask, "Do ya think they got enough beer for everyone here if they're going to be doing keg stands?" He says, "They've got two half kegs and each one contains, or did at one time, at least fourteen gallons of beer, or about a hundred and forty cans of beer." I ask, "Fourteen gallons, really?" and he's like, "Yeah, and there's two kegs so for this party some genius thinks they need twelve cases of beer." I say, "Well, there's about fifty people hear so that's about a six pack each, so the genius was right." Chubby goes, "Yeah, if our math's correct, which I'm not betting my life on, so lets get our share," and we grab a couple of plastic cups and move over to the other tap. When it's our turn Chubby take the tube coming from the keg and release the gizmo at the end, I pump the keg and out comes the amber colored liquid. Chubby says, "Hey, somebody here knows how to tap a keg of beer. Remember that frat party we crashed where the beer coming out of the keg was all head and no beer?" With cups of beer we walk around and run into Marcus and his girlfriend. We all say, "Hi," but she pulls on Marcus' arm, saying, "We're looking for my sister, Marcus, not bull shitting with frat brothers." Pussy-whipped Marcus waves at us and follows his super-stocky girlfriend. I go, "Frat brothers?" Chubby's like, "She's just right for Marcus." I'm not sure what he means by that. We walk around to the front of this smallish house and find a group of guys and girls drinking and laughing, plus Julie and Jen. They're talking to two guys who aren't wearing shirts. Julie spots us and comes over as one of the hairy animals she was talking to, yells, 'Hey, where ya going, Julie, baby?" Without looking back she waves at the guy, sorta like, 'Take a hike'. She smiles cutely, saying to me, "There you are. I was afraid you were hiding from me. I get hot for the quiet, shy types like you, plus you're so cute I feel like pinching your cheek," and then she does pinch my cheek. I frown, then mumble "Don't do that, please," and she wraps her arm around my arm like she did on the boardwalk, making a face that I guess is suppose to be sexy. She bats her eyes at me, and whispers in my ear, "You're afraid of me, aren't you?" I mutter, "Nice perfume. But, no, I'm not afraid of you." Chubby and Jen join us, as Chubby goes, "Lets get the girls a beer." Jen asks, "Do they have anything but beer, Jeffrey?" He goes, "How the hell would I know? I don't even know who's party this is." Just as we turn the corner to the back of the house a girl doing a keg stand, burps loudly, then hurls straight up in the air. Chubby bursts out laughing and the girls go, "Ewwww, oh my god, that's disgusting!" I ask Julie, "Why do girls want to do everything guys do?" She says, "Because we can," and I nod at the girl dripping in her own puke, muttering, "She couldn't." Jen says, "Guys hurl too, Dylan. Don't be a male chauvinist pig." Chubby's quick with a factoid, "That phrase originated in the sixties, Jen, and has been kept alive by feminist ever since." She snaps back, "And what's wrong with woman expecting equal rights with men?" Chubby says, "Nothing, it's when they want more than equal rights that I object to it." Jen goes, "Oh you," and puts her arm around Chubby's waist. The CD's blaring out club dance music, famous for it's contagious fast beat, in this case it's, 'The Candy Dealers' latest CD, "Danger Zone" and it gets quite a few people dancing. I watch them as Chubby gets the girls beers. It helps to be drunk if you're fast dancing, especially when you basically don't know what the fuck you're doing, like half the guys who are dancing here. Almost every girl knows how to dance, although I don't know why that is. Some of these guys dancing in the driveway look like spastics. It'd be fun to videotape them and show it to them when they're sober. This smallish summer residence is below the restaurant's parking lot level, and at the end of a cul-de-sac, so it's ideal for a loud, wild party like this one. It would have been broken-up by the cops by now if it was in a normal neighborhood setting. Chubby's already on his second beer so he appears determined to get hammered tonight as the four of us find a spot that's not too crowded near the garage, and then Chubby entertains us with some of his more bizarre factoids that neither of the girls believes, but I know they're more than likely true. I've never caught Chubby with a factoid that wasn't true, although I haven't diligently followed up on too many of them. We learn from the twin sisters they go to the same college and will be sophomores like Chubby and me. After I get us fresh beers the girls try to outdo Chubby and me describing wild parties they've been to during their freshman year at college, and unless they're bullshiting us, they have been to more outrageous parties than we have. We all start smoking with our next beer and then join a big group of guys and girls cheering-on two drunks in a fist fight. Everyone is enjoying the fight except, probably, the two guys fighting. From overheard comments around us no one seems to know what started the fight and no one seems to know who these guys are. This party spread by word of mouth and it's impossible to determine who actually is throwing this drunken affair. Jen and Julie think the fighting is disgusting and I agree with them. The fight ends like most fights, with the combatants wrestling and now they're basically clutching each other on the ground. Finally three or four guys mercifully pull the two apart and except for one guy with a bloody nose, it seems no serious harm came to either. Well, except for their clothes which have taken a bit of a beating. The dancing begins again and Julie wants to dance. I had two beers at the duplex a couple hours ago, and since then three cups from the keg so dancing seems like a good idea to me by now. Julie turns out to be an excellent dancer and, surprisingly, I find I'm having fun. There's a degree of exhibitionism involved in dancing and Willie taught me how to dance cool, so I'm showing off a little. Then I glance up and look right at a hot sexy kid about my age who's staring directly at me. When I make eye contact with him he stares defiantly right back at me. There's something arrogant about him although he's very youthful looking with sort of a baby face. Only it's a baby face with a sparse mustache and he's got a little chin whiskers thingie going for him too. Cute! His facial hair and the longish hair on his head are both my favorite shade of light brown, almost a dirty blond color. We're in a staring contest, which ain't easy when dancing. The tune ends and Julie and I wipe the perspiration from our foreheads. "Whew, that was so neat, Dylan, you dance good for a guy. Lets get a beer." I shrug, looking around for the hot dude I had the staring contest with, but he's nowhere to be found now. At the keg a big guy says to Julie, "Let me pump for you, beautiful," meaning pump the keg I think. She does something with her big breasts and flirts with the guy, feeling his right bicep, saying, "You sure you can handle it?" I take this opportunity to say to her, "I'll catch you later Julie, I just saw someone I know from college that I gotta give him a shout out to." She doesn't answer because the big guy is telling her, "Julie, that's a pretty name..." He says more but I'm lost in the crowd by now and don't hear the end of it. Around in front of the house again, I light a cigarette and take a needed drag as one of the shirtless guys I saw earlier asks me, "What's your name?" I go, "Bill Belichick," and he's like, "Cut the crap, who are you?" I say, "Who are any of us, and why do you want to know my name?" He frowns, "What?" I go, "It was a two part question. I raised the metaphysical question about human identity, and then the more worldly question of why you want to know who I am?" The other shirtless guy grabs the first guy's arm pulling him away, saying, "Ralphie, ya gotta see this." Ralphie looks back and points at me, but apparently can't think of anything to say. I've had just enough booze to be a wiseass... for all I know Ralphie is one of the guys responsible for this party and he wants to know who the fuck all these strangers drinking his beer. I ask out loud to myself, "What's wrong with this picture?" and answer myself in my head, 'Ya don't have a beer, dummy!' Making my way to the back yard again someone's arm goes around my neck from behind. I ask, "Ralphie?" and realize the arm around my throat is too thin to be muscle bound Ralphie's. The side of someone's face is pressed to mine preventing me from turning my head. Then side of the face, asks, "Are you gay?" He and I are leaning sideways against the clapboard side of the house. For some reason I say, "Yeah, I'm gay, what about it?" He says, "I knew it," and pushes my back against the house with him leaning into me chest to chest. It's the hot boy I had the staring contest with. He's grinning, his face close to mine, "We need to find someplace a little more private and get to know each other. I'm Jake, who are you?" I didn't feel like telling Ralphie my name, but Ralphie isn't cute and hot like Jake here. I mutter, "Dylan. Why do we need to get to know each other better?" He says, "Because you want to. Your eyes are beautiful, but they give you away. You're body language too." Jake isn't the first person to tell me that, but I swear to God I don't know what they're referring to. I can't think of a snarky response, so settle for muttering, "Oh," and he chuckles, then says, "Has anyone ever told you you're cute?" Instead of answering that, I go, "Look who's talking," and he kisses my lips, mumbling, "You taste as good as you look." I say, "Thanks, but people are looking at us." He shrugs, then takes my hand and leads me down the front walk away from the party, and I'm wondering why I'm going with him. I guess it's because I'm intrigued and I told myself earlier if the opportunity presents itself, take it. First Jumper and now Jake, but Jake's cuter than Jumper by leaps and bounds. When we're at the end of the block we take a right, and I ask, "Jake, where we going?" He says, "My place. All my roommates are getting drunk at Al's beer bash so we got the place to ourselves." Still holding my hand Jake walks next to me now, and asks, "How come you're doing what I say?" I mutter, "I'm waiting for the opportunity to call the police and inform them I've been kidnapped." He stopped and jerks on my hand, saying, "You're cute enough to eat, but if you're going to be a smart ass, run along," and he lets go of my hand and stares at me. Hmmm, what to do? I'm really intrigued now, so I take his hand, saying, "Sorry." He nods and starts walking again, adjusting his hand so that he's holding mine instead of me holding his. A fine distinction perhaps, but I get it and I'm also getting a hard dick. Dammit! My damn dick has a mind of it's own and Jake's little lecture screams to me that he's a dominant, confident kid which is very sexually attractive to me. Jumper wasn't that way at all. He was pushy enough, but a laughing box compared to Jake, who asks again, "How come you're doing what I say?" I decide on honesty, "Because you're hot and cute and I promised myself if an opportunity presented itself I'd see if it developed into something I like, and if so, see where it goes." He says, matter of fact, "You already know where it's going, you're going to get fucked. Why were you with that chick? I would have danced with you." I mumble, "I was doing a favor for my brother and I didn't know you wanted to dance with me." We turn into a driveway and go around back where there's stairs. Jake smacks my ass, muttering, "Get up the stairs," and he follows me up as my dick gets harder. He's a couple inches taller than me with wider shoulders to go with a slim body that's almost as slim as mine. There's a door at the top step so I stop. Jake reaches around me and unlocks it, and we go inside. He says, "The last door on the right is my bedroom," followed by another smack on my ass. I walk down the narrow hall trying inconspicuously to adjust my boner sideways with Jake right behind me, his hand on my hip. At the door, he says, "Well, go ahead, open it, Dylan. Is that your real name?" I open the door, saying, "Yeah Dylan New...' he says, "No last names, okay? We're two horny ships passing in the night, perhaps anonymously providing each other sexual pleasure." I ask, "Why me?' and he says, "You might as well wear a sign saying, 'Ask me, I'm game'." I say, "It's not intentional I assure you." He lifts my t-shirt and I put my arms up so he can pull it off, as he says, "I know it's not intentional, that's one of the things that attracted me to you." He takes his polo shirt over his head and unsnaps my shorts, saying, "You're wearing a thousand dollar Yurman necklace and Ferragamo sandals. Are you one of those spoiled rich kids? Your daddy's rich, is he?" I'm disappointed his chest is as free of hair as mine, although he has a happy trail of very soft looking hairs from his belly button disappearing into his pants. I go, "No, I'm far from rich. Someone gave me these things." He lifts my wrist to look at my watch, then looks me in the eyes, asking, "A rich sugar daddy, perhaps?" I go, "No! I resent that, my first boyfriend was rich..." but that's as far as I get because his hand goes behind my head and his lips are on mine with his tongue in my mouth, and oh fuck, can he kiss... very much like Ryan does it, only with Jake's wispy whiskers tickling my upper lip. His chest and stomach against mine feels so tight and smooth. It's a fifteen seconds kiss, then with his lips on mine, he says, "You sprung a boner from holding my hand on the sidewalk. What kind of hottie do I find myself with tonight? How many guys are fucking you?" I shake my head a little, mumbling, "Why do you keep insulting me, Jake?" He squeezes the back of my neck kissing me again, getting my dick hard as a steel rod. After the kiss, he licks my cheek, murmuring, "You're my favorite kind of gay boy. Cute like crazy, awesome body, and a submissive streak, maybe more than a streak. I detected your submissive nature when you so willingly let me put the side of my face against your pretty cheek." With his arm around the back of my neck he lightly rubs the back of his fingers over my cheek, murmuring, "So smooth, so pretty. You're really something, Dylan. Do you have a boyfriend?" I nod my head and we're back to staring into each others eyes again... he's hypnotic. His eyes are bright brown and shiny, like Chubby's. He talks in a quiet very confident way, asking, "Does your boyfriend know you're cheating on him?" I'm getting in one of my almost hypnotic trances by now and it's a dreamy sensation that so appealing and relaxing, I just nod my head to answer his last question. He murmurs, "He puts up with you cheating on him because he's so in love with you he has no choice, and I can see where he's coming from with that. Weren't you scared when outside I told you I'm going to fuck you?" I mutter, "A little I guess, but I don't think you're dangerous." He grins a really cute grin with dimples in each cheek, then asks, "Here's the big question, Dylan. Don't lie because I can tell when someone's lying to me. How old are you? I don't fuck twinks unless they're eighteen." I realize my hands are on his hips as he cradles me with the arm around the back of my neck and his other arm around my waist. Wetting my lips, I mutter, "I'll be twenty tomorrow." His eyes widen as the arm around my waist drops so his hand can go in my back pocket and pull my wallet out. He says, "I don't think you're lying, but I gotta check because you hardly look eighteen, never mind twenty." Without taking his arm from my neck he hands the wallet to me, saying, "Cover your name with a finger and let me look at your picture and date of birth." With my knuckles brushing his soft happy trail, I take out my license and hold it up for him to see, covering my name with my index finger. He looks at it briefly, nods his head, mumbling, "Cute picture. I knew you didn't lie, but I had to be sure. Thank you." I realize I've been holding my breath so I let it out slowly hoping Jake doesn't realize I held it. What the fuck was I holding my breath for anyway? As I'm putting my license and wallet away, Jake says, "I don't usually make out with guys I fuck, but I couldn't wait to taste you, and you don't disappoint." He leans his head down and smells my neck just under my chin. "Ooooh, dude, you smell good too. What is that, some kind of cologne?" and he puts his perfect nose right against my shoulder and inhales giving me a chill down my spine, "Mmmmm, love your scent. Good pheromones, Dylan. Excellent," and then his mouth is on mine again sucking gently and kissing deeply and I can feel precum drooling in my jockey shorts. He takes his hand from around my waist and slides it inside my underpants to squeeze my bare ass and then moves his hand around to the front lightly scraping my bare skin with his finger nails and that gets my shoulders shuddering. Now he's massaging my balls lightly and then his fingertips rub around my groin as he mouth slides off mine with his tongue licking my chin, then under my chin. I'm holding my breath again and need to gasp in air, then moan, "Mmmmmm, ooooh." His hand encircles my boner and he slides his hand from the root to the head. He murmurs, "Perfect. You're extremely sensuous and receptive to me using your beautiful body as I please. Shaved pubic hair, uncut cock, precum oozing, and the best ass I've ever squeezed. Drop your pants now, Dylan, I want to see all of you." I'm dizzy with desire for this gorgeous stranger. His mannerisms have me dreamily and sexually under his control. He's all I know right this second. There isn't anyone else on earth right now, just him and me and we're in the only room on earth. I'm taking short panting breaths as I fumble my pants down with Jake letting go of me entirely. He steps back a foot or so, and when I step out of my underwear and shorts he kicks then over near his messy bed, muttering, "Sandals too, please," and I kick them off and stand naked in front of him, my drooling boner pointing straight up, flat against my stomach. "Turn around, Dylan," and when I do, he says, "Bend over and spread your pink, very hot ass cheeks." In a submissive trance I do that and he gently pushes a finger up my ass and moves it around. He pulls it out and I feel his tongue licking up my ass crack, then lap over my anus six or eight times with me going up on my toes making, "Un, un, un," grunts. My ass muscles are contracting and it feels like the lips around my asshole are quivering. His tongue leave my ass and I get a hard smack with the "SLAP" sound ringing in my ears, as Jake says, "Stand up straight now," and another hard smack on my bare ass, with the same, "SLAP!" sound. I hop forward going, "Oh, ow!" He walks around to stand in front of me, then kneels down, "Don't mind me, Dylan, I'm worshiping this body you live in and I can honestly say I've ever seen it's equal. Hell, I'm sure I haven't or I'd remember it." I say nothing going deeper into a trance, a trance like only Ryan can get me in. Jake encircles my ankle with both hands and draws his hands up my leg, "You have really nice long legs, especially considering your height. What are you about five-nine or so?" I croak out, "Ten," and he looks up, "Five feet, ten inches?" I nod my head as he straightens-up rubbing his hands up my right thigh to my groin and then cups my nuts, asking, "Do you and your boyfriend shave each other's pubes, or do you do it yourself?" I nod my head, and he asks, "Which one is it, and why don't you speak, Dylan?" I shrug and he grins, mumbling, "It's okay if you don't feel like talking." He grips my boner pulling it away from my stomach, and then bends down to take it in his mouth and suck on the head. My hand is lightly on his neck under his chin and I feel his small Adam's apple bob as he swallows my precum. He's sucking again making my feet wiggle, and I go, "Mmmmm, aaaah, aaah." My fingers go in his longish hair and pull on some of it a little. His clean, light-brown hair feels good. Fine hairs thickly packed together on his scalp. He pays me no mind as he licks the shaft of my boner, then lets it slide from his mouth dripping with his saliva.. it wetly bounces up against my stomach again, and I go, "Mmmmm," again. Jake reaches up and takes my hand from his hair to hold it, asking, "May I fuck you, Dylan?" I take a deep breath and grunt out, "Un huh." Jake takes off his shorts and underwear, saying, "On the bed please, and lay on your stomach. I'm going to fuck a big orgasm out of you and then later tonight I'll sleep in your dried cum remembering how very special you are." I lay on his bed smelling him on the pillow and it's a very pleasant scent, but not as pronounced as some boys I've been with. Jake has an uncut cock very much like mine, only his is surrounded by dark pubic hairs and his isn't a boner like mine. He reaches down to lift his shorts, that he just dropped to the floor, then takes a condom from a pocket and brings it over to where I'm laying. He stands opposite my head, leaning against the side of the mattress, asking, "What's missing here, Dylan?" I shimmy over and go up on my elbow to take his firm, but not boned-up cock in my fingers and guide it into my mouth on my tongue. Jake grins while running his fingers through my hair, murmuring, "Thank you," as I'm tonguing the head and sucking the shaft. Holding it in my fingers I run the head against the inside of my cheek and along the roof of my mouth, then suck on it some more with my tongue in constant motion and I hear Jake breathe deeply. He's gently humping his hips sliding his hardening cock on my tongue and it gets pretty damn hard, so when I taste precum I take his cock from my mouth and suck on his belly and then lap at his balls getting a few pubic hairs in my mouth. As I'm plucking them out I stroke his cock and a big gob of precum drools over my fist. Jake says, "Now the condom," and he hands it to me. I rip it open with my teeth and roll it onto his cock. His boner is sticking straight out, very hard. Jack leans down and licks my face again, then asks, "You like it hard, don't ya?" I gasp, and go, "Un huh," and he's like, "You'll get it hard, Dylan, and I'm gonna need to be a little rough with you, but it's not because I'm mad at you or don't like you, quite the contrary... it's because a submissive sex partner like you deserves to get fucked the way he likes it and I know from experience how guys such as you like it." He lightly rubs the palm of his hand down my back to my left butt cheek, squeezes it, then, a loud, stinging smack, "SLAP!!" I buck on the bed and Jake hops on top of the mattress and spreads my legs. "Hunch your ass up a little for me," and another loud, stinging, "SLAP!!" I grunt, "Uff," and stick my ass up. Jake spreads my butt cheeks apart and holds then there as the slimy head of his lubricated condom-covered boner presses against my asshole, then a big hump of his hips pushes it past my sphincter muscle followed by a steady trip up my ass. It burns as the head of his cock steadily spreads the walls of my rectum and when I feel his pubic hairs tickle my buttocks he begins a steady deep thrusting with me scrunching my face against the pain. Every penetration slams his groin against my buttocks and the constant, "Slap, slap, slap, slap, slap," sound of his groin against ass cheeks fills his bedroom and seems to echo off the walls announcing anal fucking is in progress. My rectum adopts to the intrusion and a cascading series of desirable sexually charged sensations begin spreading from my rectum to my belly and all around my cock and balls. A long moan of pleasure drifts out of my throat, "Ooooooh, ooh, mmmm, um, um, um, oooh," as the steady fucking continues. Jake grips my hips and pulls them up so my face slides off the pillow and he begins driving his boner in harder at a different angle and my shoulders begin shuddering as I bite the sheet trying not to humiliate myself by moaning his name. I feel my orgasm coming on as he pulls his boner from my ass and slaps my right butt cheek three times, "SLAP! SLAP! SLAP!" He goes, "Turn over!" followed by another "SLAP!" I yelp as I flop over onto my back. Jake grips behind my thighs pushing my legs back so far my back bends and my ass is off the bed. His cock slams into my asshole and the sounds of ass fucking begin again, "Slap, slap, slap, slap." I groan, "Aaasaaah, OOh ooh," as incredible sensations flood my brain. When my climax hits I squeal as loud as I ever have and cum pours from my cock splattering my face. Then , "Ummm, ahh, ahh, oooh," as my cock fires three more blasts of creamy cum with my body shaking . Jake pushes my legs back further and drives his boner down into my ass as he's biting his bottom lip, groaning, "Ooooh, umpt." His face is red when he lean against me doing tiny humps filling his condom. He lets out a long breath as sensations fade in me. A half dozen lazy thrusts and Jake pulls his cock out and flops down next to me to breath deeply for maybe a minute. He's on his stomach as I lower my legs, then another shoulder shudder as the last of my climax exits my body. One last big breath from Jake, then he says, "That was fast. I don't think I've ever cum that fast before." I'm in a daze, and as I turn my head to look at him, he laughs, "You shot your cum load on your face, Dylan. Do you do that often? Hahaha." I go, "Um, I don't think so." Like most guys, Jake wants a compliment, "How was it for you, dude?" I mutter, "Awesome, but like you said, fast. I couldn't hold my orgasm off either. You were so, I don't know, so in charge. I loved it, Jake." He reaches over to rub his fingers in some of my cum that didn't reach past my nipples, and says, "This looks like it's gonna be a double condom night, what do you say to that?" I go, "Sure, Jake," and he grins, "Maybe I could fall for you, but I don't want to do that because it'd just leave me frustrated. Where ya from anyway? What state?" I go, "Massachusetts," and he's like, "Ah, we're geographically challenged then. I live in Delaware." I say, "Lucky for the gay boys in Delaware." He grins, "I've never meant anyone who's as comfortable being who he is as you seem to be." I go, "I'm not always comfortable, sometimes I get intimidated by strong personalities in guys and girls I don't know... mostly straight, rarely gay." He says, "I'm surprised to hear that 'cause you sure responded to me, and I have a strong personality that some claim is arrogant." I shrug, "You're hot as far as I'm concerned. It's like I'm kinda flattered you wanted me." Jake puts his fingers, with my cum dripping from them, to my lips and I open my mouth to lick his fingers. He watches me as he wets his lips with his good-tasting pink tongue, then says, "I'm a little worried for you, Dylan. You might be susceptible to an attractive, very dominant individual who will take advantage of your obvious submissiveness where gay sex is concerned. There are predators out there searching for vulnerable beautiful gay boys like you. I'd hate to think that could happen to you." I stare into his eyes feeling much younger then Jake. "How old are you, Jake?" He grins and says, "I'm exactly one week older then you," and I mutter, "Happy Birthday." He goes, "Same to you," and we talk for an hour laying on the bed. Jake never stops touching some part of my naked body as we discuss sports, music, gayness, and sex. He's easy to talk to and I like the way he pays close attention to what I say. Also I like that he seems fascinated with my body and with me in general. Who wouldn't be flattered? Somehow we get into another make-out and then I suck his cum-flavored cock until we both have new boners. The cock sucking leads to general licking on his body as he plays in my hair and squeezes the back of my neck, then my shoulders, and rubs my back. We embrace, almost like wrestling, as we squirm against one another feeling each others body with as much of our own body as we can. Then Jack licks my face and down to my nipples and on down to my belly button and finally my cock. He sucks it until I feel another orgasm coming on so I push his head away. He murmurs, "I don't want to stop, but if I don't I'll spunk all over us. Dylan, please get a condom from my shorts and roll it on my boner." His voice seems to come from far away. We haven't spoken since we began our mutual body appreciation and I'm deep in a submissive dreamy trance. Sliding off the bed I can hardly stand as I stare at my cock sticking straight out from my body, hard with the foreskin stretched to an almost painful degree. I look in his short's pocket, then the other pocket and find a single condom package. Ripping it open with my teeth again, I manage to get up on the bed and roll the condom on his boner that's as hard as mine. Jake murmurs, "Hands and knees," as he gets on his knees behind me and humps his cock up my ass, then grabs my hips and fucks me so hard I collapse onto the mattress making humiliating sounds of pleasure, but by now I don't care and couldn't stop even if I did care. Jake fucks a climax out of me and this times I shoot it on his sheets like he intended I do two hours ago. When he climaxes in the second condom he falls on my back leaving his cock up my ass. His heart pounds against my back until his deep breathing abates. With his cock up my ass Jake sucks a hickey where my neck and right shoulder meet. When done with that he says in my ear, "Something to remember me by, for a few days anyway." He pulls his cock out and sits on the edge of the bed as I lay here looking at him. He glances over at me and says, "How about we wander back to Al's beer party and have a beer together?" I nod my head and slowly get up. My ass is sore, but I don't say anything. We get dressed and five minutes later we're drinking draft beer, the too soberest guys here. to be continued...
