				  Crystal

Why are you crying?

The lights are too bright. The air too moist. Almost like the world through
a camera lens or sound through a microphone, as though making it louder
would make it clearer. It never does.

How does it feel? Do you like it? You can barely look at me but when you do
I see your eyes- your fucking eyes. They're shimmering with the stage
lights and the ceiling lights and the sunlight, too much light for one
room, making everything shine when it shouldn't, turning every bit of
moisture into wet glitter. And the wetness flows, our bodies becoming
oceans of sweat, saliva, chlorinated water, mine of fruit-flavored
lubricant but yours of tears.

"Do you like it? Huh?"

You don't say anything. I don't know if it's because you can't or because
you can't bring yourself to. I hope it's the former but I'm pretty sure
it's the latter.

Why did you do this to me? Tell me why the fuck you did this to me.

Whatever. It's too late now.

Just shut up and take it.

"Glad to see you again," said Mr. Valentine as he sat cross-legged in his
chair. He pulled his t-shirt a little tighter, adjusted his pants for some
reason. "Don't be shy, you can sit."

Following Mr. Valentine's advice, he sat.

"If I remember correctly, you haven't been on film before."

"No."

"You have?"

"Oh, no, I mean I haven't. Sorry." his voice cracked answering
Mr. Valentine's question, perhaps distracted by his stare.

Mr. Valentine chuckled with a voice just a hint husky. "You're really
nervous."

He nodded.

"Don't be. You can try it out by yourself first, and if you feel like it's
not for you, that's fine; we'll let you go. And if you do feel like it's
for you, that's great. We can go at your pace. It's all your choice."

Again, he nodded. This time he burst out laughing. "I'm sorry, this is
really new for me. What do I have to-"

The door burst open. Mr. Valentine and his visitor turned around.

"Hey, Brick." Mr. Valentine said.

Brick was tall, an overbearing man in a muscle shirt and baseball cap whose
presence took up an entire room. He had skin like the earth, tan and
smooth, hair like the night, dark and rough, eyes of stars and an almost
arrogant face that was ready for anything. His hand seemed to even handle
the doorknob with verve. In fact, at 190 pounds and 6' 2", he could
probably rip the knob off the door. He leaned in, gave a chance look to the
boy in the chair and then to Mr. Valentine. "Jeff and I are going."

"Ok. Thanks for today."

"Yeah." He closed the door behind him.

Mr. Valentine snickered after he noticed the boy couldn't take his eyes off
of Brick. "...Where were we?" he asked to get his attention again. The boy
looked up at him. Mr. Valentine smirked and got to his feet, approaching a
metal locker. "Right. I've got some paperwork for you to fill out. It
shouldn't be any problem as long as you're a citizen, you're 18..."
Mr. Valentine looked up from the file cabinet. "You ARE 18, right?"

"Yeah."

"No offense. I ask everyone." He pulled out a small folder and handed it to
him along with a pen. "You can fill it out now if you want."

"Sure." He opened the folder and stopped immediately. He looked up at
Mr. Valentine. "Do I have to put my real name?"

"Yes." Mr. Valentine sensed a bit of apprehension so he quickly followed
up. "But almost everyone has a pseudonym. If you don't want anyone to know
it, I can keep that confidential."

He nodded and smiled with relief. "Thanks." A scratching sound as he filled
out the papers. "I...will...do that." He said in between writing.

"I think you'll be great on the team." Mr. Valentine saw the sarcastic look
on his face and chuckled yet again. "If you don't mind me asking, do you
have a name in mind?"

"Yeah. I do."

Brick opened the door for Jeff. Jeff didn't thank him, but he did wait for
Brick to close it behind them. The air outside was cold and dry, bits of
ice forming on the sidewalk.

When thinking of Jeffrey, the words "disturbingly photogenic" often came to
mind. Moonlight pale skin, a tight athletic body, dark spiked hair and one
of those seashell necklaces. Maybe it was just physically impossible to get
a bad picture of him. He was falsely modest of course. But those who didn't
believe in Jeff's cover came little in number now. Brick knew better. At
least, he was pretty sure he did. Jeff was too pretty. Too cute. Too much
of a number of things that it almost reached the point of being disturbing.
And he loved his job. Who the hell could love his job?

"You were great." Jeff said with a picture-perfect smile.

Brick looked at him in the corner of his eye then wrapped his scarf around
his mouth. "Yeah. You too," he replied.

He jumped a little when Jeff nudged him in the side. "Mmmm... You want some
more?"

"Don't-" Brick held Jeff's wrist and pried it off his waist. He looked
around to make sure no one had seen, then continued walking. "Stop it."

Jeff clicked his tongue then ran to catch up with Brick. "Hey! Wait!" he
stumbled a little as he slowed down. "Let's go out for a drink or
something. It's freezing out here."

The proposition was met with a wary, almost tired look from Brick. "Fine."

Jeff chose a place called "Ivies." It was a cheap place with the pretense
of being pretentious, but the bar, sparsely populated with an afternoon
group, was enough for Brick.

"What're you doing after this?" Jeff asked after a couple of shots,
lighting up a cigarette.

He shrugged. "Nothing."

"Hm? You could come over to my place... do some 'nothing' with me."

"I'll think about it." Which was a metaphor for "no."

"Whatever. You need to learn how to have fun." Jeff eyed two athletic guys
in the corner of the bar. Suddenly ignoring Brick, he winked at one of
them; the guy smiled back. Without so much as a word to his company, Jeff
sauntered over to their table.

Ten minutes later Jeff was wrapped in one of their arms, laughing and
giggling in an amazing dance of seduction. Brick saw it in the corner of
his eye and nearly vomited when Jeff walked out the door with both of them.

Now left alone with the tab, Brick chugged his beer with frustration. He
nearly jumped when a brown-haired girl sat next to him. She seemed nice
enough, but Brick was in no mood. "You okay there? Sitting all alone..."
she asked.

Brick said nothing. He did not look at her, irked by her voice. She
pouted. "Come on, don't be like that. Just trying to be friendly."

"Look, you wanna be fucked? Huh?" Brick asked harshly. The girl opened her
mouth in offense, but Brick continued. "Cos I don't have time for this
right now, unless you wanna pay."

"What? Fuck you, pig!" she yelled, slamming the bar stool on the floor as
she walked away. She flipped him off as she left, but all he did was
continue his taciturn stare.

The bartender made her way over to Brick. "Hey, if you're gonna be causing
trouble, you gotta go."

"..." Brick put his beer down, reached for his wallet and threw a small
lump of cash on the counter. "I was about to leave anyway." The bartender
shrugged, mumbled, "suit yourself," and took the cash as she cleaned up his
cups. Brick stomped out of the bar, putting his coat back on and rubbing
his hands together.

He'd walk home today. He needed to think about the scene he did.

Brick was the most popular. He always knew that. He was most popular ever
since he started doing this shit last year. He started like everyone did-
jackoff scene to blowjob scene to "Brick's first time" scene. But things
really took off. Who knows why. He was a bit sadistic in sex, and his
penchant for topping maybe helped this reputation. It wasn't for
pleasure. No, Brick became bored with pleasure a long time ago. Rather, he
enjoyed the look on a guy's face upon being entered; the eyes squinted in
conflicting pain and euphoria, the mouth open, screaming for reprieve but
as time went on, begging for more...

...At least, that's what Brick tried to get in every guy he did a scene
with for Mr. Valentine. No, many were the kind he hated; the gung ho,
in-your-face, "fuck me, you fucking pussy" assholes. Either that or they
were the silent kinds, the ones that took it and maybe groaned every once
in a while. They were boring. No, what Brick was looking for only happened
about a quarter of the time he tried. And every time he knew it was fake.

Jeff? He was master of fake. Fakness, thy name is indeed Jeff. If Brick
felt little pleasure, he knew Jeff must have been immune to it. But he
faked it like a pro, because he was a pro. But then again, nothing much was
real about Jeff. The cuteness; the innocence he attempted to purvey; people
fell for it like flies, taking in the amazingly implausible lies like,

"I'm a virgin."

or

"I've never been with a man that's so... big like you."

or even worse,

"You were great."

What a load of crap. But when he played bottom (and he always did), he
would moan and groan and scream and writhe and buckle under uncontrollable
ecstasy, turning any guy who topped him into Casanova. So Jeff was popular
too. And what happened when two guys were popular? Mr. Valentine put them
together.

Yes, supposedly the "Internet voters" decided that a Brick/Jeff scene was
in order. Brick knew it was inevitable but it didn't stop him from dreading
it. He hated Jeff. He despised ingenuity. Maybe Jeff knew that, so he made
extra care to act extra sexy, thinking it would turn him on.

They took each other's shirts off. Jeff leaned in for a kiss but Brick
dodged quite purposely, throwing him on the bed and biting his nipple
instead. Jeff screamed instinctively, and Brick let go in frustration. He
literally ripped off Jeff's pants, motivated more by anger than lust. Jeff
dove down, pulled Brick's pants down. Brick was disgusted at how good Jeff
was at it, his tongue darting places on his dick he didn't know could be
licked. It didn't last long, as Brick finally went in for the finish. He
fucked him without even taking his pants off of his ankles. That's how mad
he was. As soon as he came and as soon as Jeff came, he left and cleaned up
as quick as he possibly could have.

...And that was it. Routine, really. Brick stopped. He'd reached his
apartment complex.

Why was this such a big deal? He'd had sex with plenty of guys and girls he
hated. Why was Jeff the breaking point?

Either way, he'd break the news to Mr. Valentine tomorrow. And reasons
aside, maybe he was happy he was quitting anyway.

Brick was surprised to see that they were filming already. The stage lights
were lit and a small contingent was getting the bed ready. Brick wandered
through the sound crew and past the food table until he found
Mr. Valentine, watching placidly while he drank a bottle of water.
Mr. Valentine greeted him with a smile. "Hi, Brick. You don't need to be
here, you know."

"Yeah, I know that. I wanted to talk to you."

"...Could it wait?"

Brick furrowed his brow. If he was being put on hold, this must have been
something important. "What's the film?" Brick asked, gesturing to the set.

"New kid." Mr. Valentine motioned brick to follow him to the dressing
rooms. They only got part way there before a young man in baggy clothes and
a skater cap ran into them. Mr. Valentine smiled and took him by the
shoulder, displaying him to Brick. "This is Crys. He'll be trying out a
position as one of our Valentines."

Crys nodded. He barely looked at Brick before averting his eyes in terror.
Brick could hardly see them hidden behind his cap, but he could have sworn
he saw something he hadn't seen in a while: nervousness. Crys cleared his
throat. "Erhrm.. err... Hi. I'm new." He awkwardly stuck his hand out to
Brick. Brick, confused, took it and shook it.

"Alright, well, enough talk. Come on, Crys, you got a big scene ahead of
you!" He patted Crys on the butt, sending him towards the set. Crys jumped
and flashed Mr. Valentine a funny look before continuing on.

Mr. Valentine smiled after him. "Whaddya think, huh? Real cute."

Brick had nothing to say.

"Feel free to stick around for the filming. You can ask me whatever you
want after."

"I will." Brick followed Mr. Valentine to the set. He had to admit: he was
just a little curious about the newbie...

Howdy people,

If you're a reader of one of my other stories, sorry about the long wait!
I've been seperated from a computer for a long time.

Crystal is gonna be an interesting story. Usually I write things connected
to the supernatural in some wacky way or other, but Crystal will be a rare
exception. It's a romance though, for all intents and purposes. It'll just
have quite a bit of sex in it. The characters are porn stars, after all :O

thank you for reading this far!
