"Well, anyway -- you need to get to class.  Can you get here yourself
tomorrow night?"

"I'll get there!  Thanks!"  He hung up.  He sounded much happier this
morning.


Chapter 18

He called me three times as he rode and transferred busses to get to our
place.  I was waiting at the bus stop when he got off.

"Hi!  Geez!  It turned cold since I left home!"  He said.

He had on shorts again and a tee shirt -- and didn't have a coat and only a
small satchel.  I had on a tee shirt, a long sleeved lumberjack shirt and a
jacket.  I took off my jacket and held it out to him.  He took it gladly.
It was a large and he was a small.  But it was warm!

"Um -- did you ever hear that Chicago is called the windy city?"  I said
sarcastically.

"My dad says that's because of their politicians!"  He grinned.

We walked the two blocks back to our bungalow.  "Is THIS where you live?"

"Yeah."

"This is so cool!  I thought it would be like -- a dormitory -- with all
kinds of rooms."

"That's funny -- so did I -- but I was -- well -- disappointed!  I WANTED
to be with all those guys!"

"I like this!"  He said.

We walked in and Arlo walked out of his bedroom in his Speedo. He almost
tripped upon seeing someone new in the house.  "Oh!"  He said.

"What's going on, Arlo -- oh!  Arlo, this is my friend Jack."

Arlo looked self conscious as he stepped forward and extended his hand.  If
he wasn't self conscious -- I was ... for him!  ""Hi!  Y'all going
somewhere tonight?"

"Nope.  You?  Um -- did I miss something -- was there a workout I was
supposed to be at?"  I asked, indicating his brief attire."

"Naw, Ah'm goin' over to work out a little.  Coach saw me diving earlier in
the week and asked if I wanted to work some dives into my routine.  I'm not
good enough to really compete, but the team gets points for just
participating."

"Oh.  Well -- be careful on the way over -- you could get mugged looking
like that!"  I said.

Arlo and Jacky are about the same size, and I couldn't help seeing the look
both gave each other.

"Y'all're more than welcome to come watch -- if you care to."

I said, "Um -- I don't think - "

"I'd like to watch that!"  Said Jacky.

"Oke-kaaaay!"  I thought.  Then I thought -- fight fire with fire!

"Um, maybe as long as we're going over to the pool, I'll work out a little
as well."  I said.  "Go on over, Arlo, and we'll join you as soon as I
change.

"Okay.  Why don't you come with me, Jack -- give Mike some privacy."  Arlo
pulled on some sweats and slip-ons and Jacky followed him out the door.

What just happened?

I stripped, pulled on my briefest Speedo, and my heavy sweats, plus a coat
for Jacky, and slipped on some Vans and ran most of the way to the pool.

What I saw there left no doubt about Arlo's sexuality.  He was climbing up
the high board ladder very slowly and carefully. (Translated: Very
seductively and sexily!)  Then he went and did a swan dive, entering the
water more like an inverse cannon ball than a dive.

I had never had any dive training, but I fooled around a bit and watched a
lot of the Olympic diving. (You can probably guess why!)  After putting my
jacket around Jacky's shoulders -- and he smiled his thanks, I climbed up
the ladder, shamelessly more "carefully and slowly" than Arlo, then did a
dive I had worked on at home, but not tried since I was in Chicago.  I
couldn't even tell you what it was called, but I thought it was the sexiest
dive I ever saw.  It was an inverted (?) flip with a twist (gainer?),
slipping into the water with my front side to the "audience".  I know there
was very little splash.

When I came up, there was applause -- from outside the chain link fence.  A
small group of students had stopped to watch the "exhibition".  I swam to
the side of the pool that Jacky was on and climbed up the ladder,
surreptitiously flipping the front of my Speedo a few times to make the
contents swell.

I smiled slightly as my Speedo left the water, revealing my half filled
member, resembling a bow sprit under the thin cloth.  I looked at Jacky and
he wasn't looking back at me ... well, at least not into my eyes!  He was
concentrated a bit lower!  Arlo was again climbing the ladder, but this
time much faster, as the wind was very chill.  He let go a Geronimo yell
and tried to out do me, and flipped forward, ending up coming flat down on
his front side.

Our "audience" all yelled, "OOOOOO!"

I lost Jacky's attention for that moment, but almost immediately, his
attention returned to me -- or rather, "mine"!

I said "That had to hurt!" referring to Arlos' painful belly flop.  My
words brought Jacky's attention back up to my eyes, then he looked at my
quickly receding bow sprit, and then back again to my eyes and blushed
deeply, as he saw what I saw and knew I knew he knew that I knew he knew
what I knew he knew!

Translated: He was nailed!

I smiled, and turned and gave Arlo a hand up.  His whole front side was
pink from the mishap.  "I'm gonna swim some laps now."  I said.

"Y'all do that.  I'm gonna head home.  I've humiliated myself enough and I
feel rightly poorly after that aborted dive ... if you could call it that!
You wanna come with me, Jack?"

I didn't realize that Arlo was so calculating!

"Naw -- I'll stay and walk back with Mikey!"  He said.

SCORE!

I ran to the end of the pool and began my laps.  Arlo had the same layer of
swimmers fat I did, but he was considerably skinnier than I.  He obviously
didn't work out ... as I did.  I swam lap after lap, each time taking the
time to make eye contact with my new friend.  He smiled every time.  I
flipped over and did a few back strokes before hopping out.  My body was
heated up from the exertion.  I slipped back into my sweats and Vans and we
walked back to the Bungalow.

That was the last Arlo tried to get Jacky's attention.

When we got back, Arlo had whipped up a great salad with left over chicken
and lots of cheese and olives, with a bleu cheese dressing.  We scarfed it
up and then watched some tube until Arlo fell asleep in his chair.  I
decided that we should call it a night.

I changed the sheets before giving Jacky my bed, and told him I'd sleep on
the couch.  He looked a little surprised, but said okay.  After we were all
settled for the night, I was laying in the dark, when a figure loomed up in
front of me.

"Sorry for making such a fool of mahself earlier.  Y'all musta thought I
was a mite touched in the head!"

I tensed up and then ... made an on-the-spot decision to forgive him! "I
understand why you did, Arlo."  Did you finally decide that you are gay,
then?"

"Ah must be at least bi, huh?"  he chuckled mirthlessly, as he slid down to
the floor in front of the couch.  "Ah dunno what Ah'm gonna do.  "Hey-el!
Ah don't even know what ah WANT!"

"You haven't dated many girls since you've been here -- have you?"

"Ah know THAT to be a fact -- THAT's for sure!"  He reiterated.

"And guys ... ?"

"Never dated any guy -- well you -- but -- that -- um -- you're the only
one ah've ever -- um -- been with."

"You've kissed girls though -- haven't you?"

"Yes -- Ah have done that."

" ... And ... ?"

"It wasn't anything like kissing you!  But how could ah even compare it to
you.  Ah was also holding you -- naked -- when ah kissed you.  Maybe -- um
- " He put his arm on my leg.  "Maybe you'd like to kiss me again --
without the bodily contact -- ah'd kindly like ta see what that'd feel
like.  Oh, that's ridiculous!  Never mind."

He was going to say something else, but my mouth got in the way.  I let him
have my full passion in the kiss.  Well hey!  He deserved to have it right,
didn't he?  He responded by climbing on top of me, and kissing me even
deeper.  Then he hugged me close.  There WAS a blanket ... and our jams
between us.

Both of us were breathing a but harder as we heard, "Mike?  Mikey!  You
awake?"  Said Jacky from my bed.

"Yeah."  I said.

"Do you wanna -- um -- come in here with me.  I wouldn't mind if you got me
a little warmer."

"Now THAT'd be an invite AH wouldn't like ta refuse.  Ah'll just go on back
to mah bed."  Whispered Arlo.

"Huh?"  Said Jacky.

"Um -- yeah -- I'll come in -- and get you warm!"  I said.  Arlo kissed me
once more and disappeared in the dark.

When I got in there Jacky opened the covers and I crawled in beside him.
He was naked.  "You gonna leave those P.J.'s on?"  He asked.  I removed
them.

"Wow!  Arlo must have been on that couch earlier.  You smell like him!"

"How could you know what Arlo smells like?"  I marveled.  "You never as
much as even sat next to him!"

"I could smell him on the way over to the pool.  That CK One is
unmistakable."

"Yeah it is.  Sorry."

"Naw -- it smells good.  It's just kinda funny that you would smell like
him!  Or -- do you use that too?"

"Um -- sometimes - " I half-lied.

"You were so awesome in that dive!  But -- you don't dive for the
University?"

"No -- but Arlo may tell coach about it -- and if Arlo is diving -- coach
may want me to also.  Problem is -- there is no diving coach."

"You could be MY diving coach!"  He said.  "I've been dreaming about diving
inside your P.J.'s!  Would you coach me how to do it?"  He said with less
aplomb than his words might indicate.  He searched my eyes in the dark for
my approval.

"It's always best to start up higher."  I said and put my lips on his.

"Omigosh I love that!"  He said and came back for seconds.  Now can I go
down?"

"I have an idea."  I said.  Why don't I show you first.  Have you ever - "

"I've never done anything!"

I gave him the full treatment.  Well, no anal play, but I sucked on
everything from his ear lobes to his navel on the way down.  By the time I
was to his neatly cut head, he was breathing hard and pushing up to meet
me.  I encircled down to his corona and tongued the tip while at the same
time teasing his perineum.  He gasped and pushed me off.

"Was that too much?"  I asked.

"No, but I don't want to go off yet.  And it was getting close.  Can I get
that far with you now?"

He definitely knew what he wanted!  I came back up and we kissed some more,
but this time he was moaning constantly, and stroking my hard-as-steel rod.
He then moved to my ears and tried to remember everything I had done,
including the perineum.  Then he got his finger wet from the voluminous
precum that I was producing and ... slipped it up my butt!  My turn to
gasp!  "I didn't expect THAT!  Are you sure you've never done this?"

"I read about it on Nifty!  I was waiting for you to do it!"

"You should have asked."  I giggled.

Then he engulfed my glans in his mouth.  No matter how many times that
happens, I always gasp at least a little.  But I didn't push him off.  He
started to bob faster and faster, until I was nearly ready.  "I'm gonna
cum, Baby!"  I said.  In my excitement I forgot who was doing me.  At least
I didn't call his name!

He pulled off and finished me off with his hand, my cum spraying all over
his face and both our torsos.

He then lay on top of me and collapsed for a moment, his face on my wet
chest.  "That was more awesome than I ever imagined!"  he said, kissing
some of my cum from my chest.  Your cum isn't bad either.  I heard it can
be bitter sometimes.  Mines kind of sweet."

"Do you think your ready for me to try yours out?"

"No doubt!"  He giggled.

"You don't mind if I swallow yours -- do you?"

"I'll swallow your's next time, too.  It's pretty nice!"  He said and came
up and kissed me again.

I didn't waste as much time getting there this time, but I did give him a
little more than he asked for.  He only put his finger in my butt.  I
stroked in and out as I got him off.  He was crying out when he finished.
I didn't lose a drop -- except that which I gave back to him, as we kissed.

"Omigosh!  That is the sexiest taste in the world!"  He said.  I'll do that
any time I can."

"It IS pretty awesome, isn't it.  Not everyone likes it -- the first time
-- but obviously you have been tasting your own."

"For about two years!"  He said, sleepily.  The workout was having its
effect.  "Can we just go to sleep now?"  He asked.

"I'd like that."  He started to climb off me.  "See if you can stay here."
He kept sliding off -- not because of the cum, but just gravity.  I half
turned on my side and he molded into my body that way.  We fell blissfully
asleep.

I dreamed that I was in bed and hugging someone -- from behind.  But he was
fully clothed, and had on a suit coat.  I couldn't wake him up, but I
climbed over him and saw that he had on a white shirt and tie.  Nothing was
out of place as he lay in my bed.  It wasn't Jacky.  It was an angel.  Then
I was able to see that he had a plastic label in his pocket.  He was a
missionary for Jay's church.  Then I realized -- it WAS Jay!  He was in my
bed, but I couldn't wake him.  I finally said to him, Sadly, "I guess this
is my dream, but not yours!"  He instantly was Jacky and was again lying on
me as we had gone to sleep.

When we awoke in the morning, both of us were woodied up. I woke up as he
was trying to quietly get off me.  "That was some amazing diving you did,
Jacky!"  I said.

"I had a good coach!"  And he kissed me again.  Both our breaths were
pretty foul, and we both grimaced and then laughed.  He ran to the bathroom
and closed the door, and I went to Arlo's' room.  He was gone -- probably
an early morning workout.

I knocked and went into the bathroom.  He was looking around.  "There are
towels under the sink."  I said.

I got one out for him and turned on the water.  "Where's your room mate?"

"Dunno.  Out.  C'mon, let's shower."

"Oh! Okay!"  he said, following me in.  After some hot kissing and
fondling, I jacked him off.  After getting off loudly, he turned around and
stuck out his bum to me.  "Your turn."  He said.

"Maybe not quite yet.  I said, and turned him around, "But thanks for
offering.  Just give me a hand job."

He did that, but when it was obvious I was gonna cum he squatted and took
all my spunk..  Then I got some of MY own back!  "Mmmm!"  he purred as we
kissed some more.  "Mikey, can I tell you something?"  He asked, as we were
embracing under the shower.

"Uh-huh."

"I feel like I'm in love with you."

"I know."  I said.

"You too?"  he said excitedly.

"I know you feel that way, Jacky.  I feel the same -- at the moment.  It's
a product of sex.  Believe me ... it WILL pass."

"Wo!"  We looked and Arlo had burst into the bathroom.  "Omahgod!"  He
said.  He was stark naked with his Speedo in his hand.  He looked panicky
as he explained, "Ah'm freezing!"

It was almost humorous to see him standing there, shivering, his scrotum
pulled up close under his shriveled up little dink!  He saw us looking and
said, "Hey! Ah've just been swimming in cold water!"

"Get in, Babe!"  I said.  "We were just about to soap up.  We'll warm you
up!"

He gladly stepped in with us and I sandwiched him between us under the hot
water.  "Geezes that's hot!"  he said.

"Not really, you're just cold."  I said and I pulled him close to me so our
-- by now -- growing boners were swelling up between us.  With my hands on
his bum, I also felt Jacky's on my hand. That little pecker was humping!

"Wow!  Jacky's a lover, isn't he?"  Said Arlo.  Jacky stopped his movement
and turned red.

"He's a horny kid alright!"  I giggled.

We separated and I soaped up, and Arlo grabbed the soap next.  When he
finished with it he gave it to Jacky, who soaped himself down.  While Jacky
was soaping down, I got into the shower, but Arlo pulled me back out and up
next to himself and started to slip around my body.

As soon as Jacky saw that he moved to my other side and they both were
slipping and sliding up and down my body.  Of course we were all three
boned up hard.  I started to moan -- or was it purring?  Jacky was to my
back and his hands found Arlos' boner and he started to rub it.  From the
moans coming from Jacky, I assumed that Arlo had started it.

It stopped as quickly as it started.  "Thanks!  Ah'm warm now!"  Said Arlo.
He stepped out and said, "Y'all continue where you were when I came in."

"I think we're done."  I said.

"Thanks for letting me -- um -- get warm with y'all!"  He said as walked
out half dried off.

"D'you think he'd be up for a threesome?"  Whispered Jacky in my ear.

"I'm not sure YOU're ready for that, Jacky.  I'm not even sure I AM!"

When we got out and dressed, Arlo had started breakfast.  He made biscuits
and gravy and eggs.  "What's that?" asked Jacky.

"You've never had biscuits and gravy?"

"N-not -- um -- no.  Sure smells good!"

"Ah kindly think you'll like `em.  Ah like to make a sandwich out of `em."

"A sandwich?"  I said.

"Sort of.  Ah just put a scrambled egg on top of `em and you can put your
own seasoning on `em."

He did that for each of us first.  Jacky took a bite.  "Omigosh!  I think
I'm in love -- for the second time today!"  He said as he chewed, mashed
and swirled it around in his mouth.  He couldn't get the second bite in
quick enough.

"Arlo does make good biscuits and gravy!"  I said.  "But I never had them
with the egg on top.  It IS good!"

Arlo beamed, as lastly he sat down with his own plate.  He took a bite and
said, "Yep!  I'm a'likin' these!"

Then he looked thoughtful for a split second, and said, "You said you're in
love again?  Who else been cookin' for you?"

"I don't know about cookin'," said Jacky, "but Mikey sure had me hot in the
shower!"

"Oh yeah, he's good at that, isn't he?  He's good in the bed too!"

"I found that out last night."

I felt embarrassed with the two of them talking about me -- my love making
-- as if I wasn't there.  I felt kind of slutty, actually -- and maybe a
little - - turned on!  "Hey!  Mikey's right here!"  I said, grinning.

"And lookin' GOOD!"  Said Jacky.

"Ah wanna thank you both for that shower earlier.  Ah needed somethin'!"

"What have you got planned for today, Arlo?"  I asked.

"Ah'm s'posed to be seeing a girl from Delta Gamma."

"Ah!  A date for my shy buddy!"  I said.

He turned red.  "Well, it's more of a group date -- and ah think Ah'll be
the only guy there.  Kindly more like one of the girls, Ah think!"

"Ew!"  Said Jacky and I in unison.

"You got anything better goin' on?"  He pleaded.

"Nothing planned.  You can tag along with us -- whatever we decide to do --
if you want."

"Naw -- I'd just be a third wheel."

"A third wheel might be fun!"  Said Jacky.

"Ah shouldn't cancel for just nothin' in particular."

"Oh, we could prob'ly find something very particular to do!"  Said Jacky.
"Do either of you know Chicago very - "

"Hello?"  My phone rang.

"Mikey!"  Said my brother excitedly.  "Can you come over here this
morning?"

"What's up Jay?"

"I got my Call!  I want you to be here when I open it!"

"Huh?"

"My mission call -- it came in this morning's mail.  I really want you here
when I open it."

"I'll come.  I -- is it okay if I bring my friend?"

"What?  You have a friend?"  He said.  I could hear some amount of hurt in
his voice -- or did I feel it?  Just as quickly it was gone.  "Heck no!
Bring her too!"

"You know better than that!"

"I know.  It's still gonna be hard getting used to."

"Your choice!"  I said.  "Anyway -- we'll be there -- well, how soon shall
we come?"

"As soon as possible!  Mom's fixin' a nice lunch for everyone -- after I
open it."

"Okay.  See you in a bit!"  I said wondering who "everyone" could be.
There are only 4 in their family -- 5 if you count me -- which they seemed
to be doing.

"I'm sure you can come if you like, Arlo.  You know that Randy'll be
there."

"Ah think Ah'll pass.  I'd hate to be rude to Alice."

"Suit yourself."  I said.  "I wonder what one wears to a
mission-call-opening!"  I mused.

"Well, in our family it was whatever we could get!  When Jimmy got his
call, two of us were in P.J.'s!  I don't think it matters."

"Well, just in case we'll -- um -- what did you bring with you?"

"My shorts from yesterday and - what you see."  He was in Jeans and a long
sleeved printed tee.

"We're about the same size.  You could wear anything of mine you wanted."
Said Arlo.

"I think he looks fine."  I said.  I'll dress to match him!"  I had on
jeans anyway.  "Maybe you can lend him one of your jackets."

"Ah got a heavy thermal vest that'd be perfect with that shirt -- if you
want."

"Perfect!"  Said Jacky.



" ... and it says I go to the Australia, Sydney mission!"  said my twin,
beaming.

>From the moment we got there, Jacky was mesmerized by my twin -- and our
identical looks.  What I liked about his looks at me made me a little --
resentful when they were directed at my brother!

"OOO!  You'll have to go the Language training mission -- to learn
Australian!"  said Randy.  Everyone laughed.  Jay's mom had tears in her
eyes.  I had tears in my eyes.  And ... Jay had tears in HIS eyes.  He
looked at me and smiled sadly.  I felt remorse, regret and ... some
happiness and pride -- coming from his spirit.

What really surprised me was that there were at least 15 others there.
Special to the family?  Other relatives?  I guess this was an important
event!

Jay said, "I want a moment alone with my twin."  I followed him to his
room.  He shut the door.  He stood close and took both my hands in his.
His eyes were brimming with tears ... as were my own.  "I won't be leaving
until the first of June."  He said.  Then, "Gosh I hate this!  It seems
like I just met you and now -- I'm leaving you!"  He sniffed and shuddered.
"But I guess it's my choice, isn't it?"

"Is it, Shawnie?"  I asked seriously.

"It is!"  He averred, but I could feel that his heart was not in it -- or
maybe that was MY heart that was not quite "in it".  I wrapped my arms
around him and pulled him into a close, tender hug.  Then I kissed his
cheek.  He moved over to my mouth and we kissed deeply and cried some more.

We dried our tears and rejoined the others, red eyed.  Jacky gave me a
knowing look.  But ... he couldn't possibly know!

"Does your brother from another mother get a hug, at least?"  Asked Randy.
I hugged him warmly and led him over to Jacky.

"You!"  Said Jacky.  Randy didn't have his glasses on.  Jacky said, "I KNOW
you -- don't I?"

"You might.  I don't recognize you."  Said Randy.  Half of those in the
room laughed.

"What?" Said Jacky, looking around.

"Sorry -- I'm blind.  But seriously, I don't recognize your voice either."

"I don't think we ever talked.  But -- Yes!  You usually wear dark glasses
-- don't you?  I've seen you at young adult dances!"

"Ah yes!  So you're LDS?"  I had recently learned that LDS meant Mormon
... or rather Latter Day Saint, as they are called.

"Yes.  I've had five brothers serve missions."

"Oh!"  said several people in the room.

Jacky got a panicky look.  Even I anticipated the next question, and I
acted swiftly.  "Jacky, can I talk to you -- outside?"

I quickly pulled him out the front door.  "Oh my gosh!  Thanks!"  He said.

"I knew the next question would be someone asking when you were going -- on
your mission."  I said.

"I know!  Part of me is jealous of your brother.  I don't know if I could
do it!"

"Why?"

"I'd probably fall in love with half my comps!"

"Comps?"

"Missionary companions -- comps!"

"Oh -- yeah!"  I didn't even want to think about that!

"That's why I'm not going.  What if I met someone -- like me -- out there?
We'd both probably come home in disgrace."  He said.

The door opened.  Randy and Jay stepped out.  "Sorry to put you on the
spot, Guy."  Said Randy.

"Heh!  Well, I kind of got myself into it with my bragging!"  Then he
turned to Jay.  "Dude!  You're as beautiful as your brother!"

"Aw, c.mon, Jack!"  I said, "We're just like anyone else!"

"No, he's right."  Said Randy.  "I used to almost drool over my little
brother's looks!  And that was when he was little.  Then when he started
working out and got into wrestling -- I started questioning my sexuality!"

"I thought you couldn't - " Started Jacky.

"I went blind a little over a year ago."

"Shit!"  Said Jacky. "Omigosh!  I'm sorry -- it just slipped out!"

"Yeah, well you maybe can understand how I felt -- at first."  Chuckled
Randy.

"No, I don't think I can!  Dude. How do you cope with it?"

"I knew how bright it was out there.  I should have - " started Jay.

"Jay -- just stop!  I know all that crap about our brother's keeper, but
this WASN'T YOUR FAULT!  Just STOP it!"  Said Randy, putting his arm around
his brother.

Jaacky looked bewildered, but no one explained it to him - and he didn't
ask.  "You are so lucky to go on a mission!"  He said to Jay.

"I always planned on it.  When my brother couldn't -- because I -- I mean
because of his blindness, it just made me want to all that much more."

"I wish I could -- I really do."

"Why can't you?"  Asked Jay.

Jacky looked around him as if there might be someone spying on us.  "I'd be
afraid I'd fall for one of my comps!"

"Oh!  Your -- gay -- too?"  Said Jay, then he looked at me and hit his
head.  "Duh!"  Are you guys a number then?"

"No!"  Said both Jacky and I at the same time.  "We just met a couple days
ago.  I came down here to get to know him better.  Haha!  My sister brought
him home to me!"

"Haha!"  laughed Jay.  That's how I met my twin!  My brother wanted me to
come up for Halloween -- to meet Mike!  Can you imagine our surprise when
we saw each other?"

"I really can't.  I'd probably faint."  Jacky was a cute and ... a little
femmy.

"I almost did!"  Said Jay.

"Why didn't I ever see YOU at the dances?"

"I was at the dances -- the youth dances!  I'm still in high school!  Mikey
and I were born in December.  He started a year earlier than I did."
