The Ballad Of JT

Chapter Five

"Boys! Get Up! Breakfast in 20 minutes." My Dad's voice called from the
intercom.

I stretched and looked around me in bed Dallas still had his arms around
me, but on the other side of me so did Denver.

"C'mon guys wake up we have to get our showers." I said.

"Me first." Said Denver.

"Okay, but just five minutes we all need to use it." I said.

"Mornin' Dallas, thanks for holding me last night first time in ages I
slept without dreaming." I said and kissed his forehead.
"Mornin' to you too stud." He said as he leaned in I thought he was
going to kiss my forehead too, but he weaved around and got me on my
lips.

I looked at him kind of shocked and he giggled,

"I wanted to do that last night."

We heard the shower quit so I said "Scoot go get your shower."

"Yes sir." He grinned as he walked away he mooned me.

Damn he's got a cute ass. But how am I going to get rid of this wood
before I have to shower. Denver stood in the middle of the room drying
off and getting dressed that sight didn't help me lose my hard on at
all. Then Dallas came out of the bathroom.

"It's all yours JT." He said.

I thought Oh hell might as well brazen it out and stood up with my cock
standing at full mast.

My cousins started to give me shit about it. I said, "Hell everyone gets
morning wood. Or are you small peckered boys jealous?" Then I shut the
bathroom door. I wish I had time to take care of that. Oh well a cold
shower fixed me up.

After I breakfast I took my pickup, an old '53 Ford that I had restored,
and the twins rode with me to church. We met my parents and the rest of
the family there.
We took our usual seats and waited for church to get over. Everything
had gone smoothly until the sermon.

The preacher got up and said, "The sermon for this morning is on the sin
of homosexuality."

I sat there in shock. I had never heard any homophobic messages in my
church before and it really surprised me. I could feel all eyes in the
church on me. I looked the preacher right in the eyes and stood up and
walked out. I could here a commotion going on behind me, but I never
stopped. I got out to my truck and spun the tires as I left.

I drove out to a little lake and parked facing it. I just sat there
staring at the water. Is everyone going to be like this for the rest of
my life? Am I going to be an outcast forever? How is Jimmy doing? I
wonder if he is as mad at the world right now as I am? I sat out there
for a couple of hours. Just sitting and thinking.

Finally I decided to go face the music. I was late for dinner at my
Grandparents, but I knew the family would still be there. I pulled into
the yard just as my Uncle Jonas did.

"Hey JT," Jonas said. "You should have stuck around church it was quite
a sight seeing fourteen Clarks walk out together."
"What did you say Jonas?" I asked.

He put is arm around my shoulders "The whole damn family followed you
out of church. I never did like that preacher. JT when we say this
family sticks up for each other we mean it. I damned near lost my
youngest brother because I wouldn't accept him for who he was. I won't,
for that matter none of us will, risk losing another family member like
that again."

"Thanks Jonas, when that man started this morning I got so mad. I just
had to leave. I..."

"JT, don't worry about it. But your Grandma and Mom and aunts are
worried about you so come on in." He said, "Hey everyone the prodigal
son has returned."
Before I knew what was happening I was enveloped in the arms of the
women in my family.

Then Grandma said "JT don't you ever pull another stunt like that. We
were worried sick about you. Now sit down and have something to eat."

To my Grandmother feeding you means loving you. She doesn't say "I love
you" very often, but it shows in everything she does. All of the adults
sat around the table and talked while I ate. Before that day I had
always ate in the kitchen with the kids, but ever after I always ate
with the adults. Some time during the last two weeks I had been
recognized as a man by my family.

After eating the twins and I went to town to see a movie. My mom started
to object, but Dallas told her to not worry as no one would mess with me
as long as they were there.

After the movie we went to the pizza place and as we walked in total
silence fell. "C'mon guys let's go someplace else." I said.

"No," Denver said. "I want some pizza. If they are uncomfortable that's
their problem not ours."

"Yeah," Dallas said. "We ain't leaving so they can just get used to it
or leave."

We ordered a large supreme and a pitcher of Coke. Then we played
electric darts until the pizza was ready. As we were eating someone
started playing the juke box. I knew it was a slam aimed at me when the
Village People started to sing YMCA. I just started to laugh.

"If that's all the abuse that I have to take I can handle that." I said,
"But I would rather hear some Hank Williams Jr. or Alan Jackson."

I dropped the twins off at the ranch and said, "Thanks guys I really
needed the time out tonight."

"No problem JT we had a blast." Denver said as he walked away.

"JT, thanks for last night sometime I'd really like to try it again."
Dallas said with a grin.

"Thank you for holding me last night I really slept peaceful for the
first time in ages." I said, "We'll see about the other stuff some time.
Night Dallas."

"Night JT."

When I got home Dad called me aside.
"You all set for tomorrow?" He asked.

"Yeah I think so, my home work is all done. I'm still more than a little
frightened about going back, but I'm just going to cowboy up and do the
job at hand."

"That's the spirit. Sorry about what happened in church this morning.
You're aren't in trouble for running off either. I knew you had to get
alone for a while. We had a family meeting after we left church and we
decided to all quit that place. I don't know which church we will join
yet, but they will have to accept all of us just the way we are."

"Thanks Dad."

"I talked to your uncle Jerry in Minneapolis tonight."

"You tell him? About me I mean."

"Yes, if things get too bad here he will be happy to have you come out
there. He said that there is a Gay-Straight student group in Cory's
school. Evidently it is pretty gay friendly there."

"I don't know Dad I'm pretty redneck I don't know if I would fit in in a
city like that."

"They have a rodeo club too."

"Well I guess we can think about it, but I'm hoping some of my friends
will come around. I don't want to leave here and you guys and my cousins
and stuff." I said.

"It isn't something that has to be decided today, I just wanted to put
an option out there for you to consider. Your mother and I don't want to
have to send you away either." He said

"Good night Dad."

"Night JT."

I went down to my room and stripped down and decided to take a shower.
As I finished my friend stood up and asked for some attention.

"Want me to play do you?" I said as I looked down at my erect seven
inches. I lay down in bed and took out a tube of KY and lubed up my
palm. I thought back to last night and that embrace that Dallas and I
shared. I thought about his scent and the way his muscles felt. The way
his hands felt as they caressed my back.
I slowly stroked my way up and down my cock stopping at the end to rub
the glands. My other hand started to rub my nipples and pinching them. I
stroked faster thinking about how good his lips tasted when he kissed me
this morning. I grabbed the KY again and slicked up my index finger. I
reached around and started fingering my hole all the while taking long
slow strokes on my cock. I slipped my finger inside searching for the
spot. Ohhh there it is. Oh that feels so good. I speeded up my hand
faster faster "Uunnnhhhh!!!" Five hard volleys of cum slicked me from my
neck down. "Oh Dallas." I moaned. I took a pair of shorts and wiped
myself off. I think I fell asleep before my head hit the pillow
