***********************************************************************
Greg, being the nervous bundle of energy he had always been,
was jittery when the car stopped in front of a large house. The man who
drove the car had greeted Andrew with a hard kiss on the lips taking away
any illusion that the diver was "just" a friend.
When Greg entered the house it was full of half dressed men
and blaring rock music. His father introduced him to a few of them saying
that they were his new friends; Greg didn't pay attention though; all he
wanted was to be shown his room. He didn't have to wait long. His father
took him upstairs to the third floor to a bedroom that was loaded with a
flat panel television, a DVD player, a computer, a small gym and a king
size bed.
"Here you go... welcome to your new room... neat isn't it?"
His father asked excitedly.
Greg knew what was expected of him and he tried his best to
look and sound impressed, but his father got the message and did not stay
long. As soon as he was gone, Greg looked for and found a lock on his
door. It did little to block the sound of the party that was spreading
from downstairs to the rest of the house... if it could even be called a
party. Shouting and moans that could only be associated with sex soon over
took the music in volume. Soon Greg heard a pounding on his door but with
the moans coming with it he realized that it was not the door being pounded
but someone's ass.
Greg knew that he had promised to call Josh as soon as he
arrived but with all the sex happening outside his room Greg just didn't
have the will to do it. He didn't want to call Josh and tell him his
father had brought him to a sex party. Telling Josh that would only worry
him and that was the last thing Greg wanted to do. He had to be strong and
survive on his own and hope that his dad would let him go back home.
******************************************************
David came home later then he intended, but he had still
expected to hear voices downstairs when he arrived and the place was silent
as a tomb. After eating dinner by himself, he went looking for Nathan but
he was not even in his room.
Looking down the long hallway on the second floor, David saw
a light leaking from one of the closed doors... Greg's room. Hoping to
find Nathan there, David made his way to the room and opened it to find a
shocking scene.
On Greg's bed was Nathan, stripped of his shirt and face
puffy from tears that still poured from his eyes. Spooned up behind him
was Philip, also with his shirt off, kissing Nathan's bicep while an arm
was wrapped around Nate's waist.
"What the hell is going on here?" David demanded. He only
knew two things. First... Nate looked like he had been hurt. Second, his
rival had his arms wrapped around the one man he cared about. David didn't
know what was happening but he was sure that is was Philip's fault.
"Greg's gone..." Was Nathan's two word despondent answer.
"What?" David asked confused.
"You stay here Nate... You're in no shape to have to explain
things to a later comer," Philip said while he glared at David.
Nathan just nodded his head and closed his eyes while Philip
climbed over him and took David out of the room.
"What the hell is going on... if you hurt Nate I'll..."
"Shhhh... " Philip silenced David. "Nate is feeling
vulnerable right now and with what happened while you were gone he has
every right to be upset."
"Ok tell me what happened," David demanded, ignoring the half
accusation Philip had made.
"Your uncle Andrew went nuts. He demanded that Greg move out
with him with only two suitcases. Greg didn't want to go but his dad made
him. Both your uncle Josh and Nathan are very upset. Nathan needed
someone and I was the only one would could take care of him."
"You took advantage of the situation," David accused.
"I did what you couldn't do," Philip struck back.
"Well now I'm here so I would like you to leave me with my
brother."
"Why so you can have your unbrotherly way with him?"
"He is my brother... I know him a lot better then you do,"
David said getting madder by the second.
"Have you ever kissed him?" Philip said snidely.
"You keep your hands off him."
"I think that should be Nate's choice not yours."
"Fine... but just give me an hour with him."
"Ok... I'll tell Nate that I will be in the den getting the
sleeping bags ready." Philip said before going back into Greg's room.
David waited outside for a few minutes, pacing around. When
Philip finally came back out he had a self-satisfied grin on his face.
"He's all yours," Philip grinned, giving David a pat on the back.
David grinded his teeth as he tried to calm himself down
before entering the room. After taking a deep breath he opened the door to
see Nathan sitting up.
"You doing ok Nate?" David asked as he took a seat next to
the man he loved more then anyone.
"I'm doing better..." Nathan tried to smile. "Sorry if
seeing Philip and me shocked you."
"It did surprise me a little," David admitted with lighter
emotions then he was feeling. He then gingerly wrapped an arm around
Nathan and lowered him down onto the bed. "Nate... I want to be here for
you."
"I know... you have always been the big brother," Nathan
sighed as he let David wrap his arms around his chest.
They rested together like that for several minutes. During
that time David's thoughts were dominated with the vision of Nate in
Philip's arms. He felt if he didn't act soon he would lose his chance. It
was then that David broke his promise to Kyle.
"I love you Nate," David whispered into Nathan's ear before
kissing him.
"What?" Nathan asked, confusion clearly showing in his
voice.
"I love you Nate," David repeated. "I want to be more then a
brother to you."
"David... I can't handle this right now," Nathan said as he
stood up. "You're my brother... how much closer can we get?"
"I want to be your lover. I want us to get married one day."
"David..." Nathan replied in a near panic. "You are my
brother... we can't do that."
"I'm not your brother... we were only raised like them. If
we had grown up like next door neighbors we could have been just as close
and I would still have these feelings for you."
"David... I don't know if I am even gay."
"But you and Philip."
"I just needed someone to comfort me."
"Then why can't I comfort you?"
"You can... just not in the same way."
"But I want to!" David pouted.
"David I love you but as a brother. I don't know what to
make of your feelings for me. I just don't need more confusion right now."
"I'm sorry you are confused Nathan... that you don't know if
you are gay or not but for me I'm no longer confused. I am GAY and I LOVE
you! Nothing is going to change these two facts. I know this is a lot for
you to deal with right now but I don't want you to shut me out just because
you think we are brothers."
"But..." Nathan was about to protest.
"Nathan... what do you want be to do? Do you want me to go
back to pretending that you don't mean more to me then you knew? Do you
want to disown me as your brother? What do you want me to do?"
"I want you to be yourself," Nathan admitted.
"Then you have to deal with me telling you that I love you."
"Ok... but I'm not sure I can return it... at least in the
way you want."
"I understand... all I ask is you give me a chance."
"Then I ask that you give me time."
"Alright..."
"And that you let me pursue my options," Nathan added.
"With Philip..." David said tensely.
"With anyone I choose," Nathan said calmly.
"Ok... then how will I be able to... court you I guess?"
"Just one thing at a time," Nathan half smiled. "I know
everyone thinks I'm clueless and that might be true... just let me finds
things out for myself."
"Ok... but can I ask for one thing... for now that is?"
"Depends on what it is."
"I would like to kiss you."
"Ok..." Nathan nodded his head.
As he was a good four inches taller then Nate and since he
wanted their lips to meet without the awkwardness of bending over, David
lowered Nathan back down onto the bed before climbing on top of him. He
brushed the soft brown hair off Nathan's face as he stared into his blue
eyes. With a hand under Nathan's chin, David lowered his lips on to Nate's
pressing first gently and then harder. When Nathan's lips parted, Davis
slipped in his tongue, letting the bottom of it brush against Nathan's. It
took some time and encouragement but Nathan did finally become and active
participant, dueling his tongue against David's before David guided it into
his own mouth. David loved the feel of Nathan's tongue on his lips and he
lifted his head up, ending the kiss.
"Your getting hard David..." was Nathan's first words.
"Sorry..." David apologized as he got off Nate. "You didn't
like it," David sighed sadly.
"No... I did. I'm just not ready for things to get more
serious," Nathan explained.
"Ok... can we try it again?"
"Later..." Nathan said as he got up.
"Can I kiss you goodnight then."
"Yes..." Nathan said as he gave David a quick peck on the
cheek.
David returned it with no more passion then what Nathan had
given in his. He didn't want to press his luck. "Goodnight Nate."
"Night David."
*****************************************************
Robert noticed that Andrew's car was still missing from the
garage when he came home. He half expected to find Josh asleep on the sofa
waiting for Andrew to come home but the whole first floor was empty.
Wanting to just check on Josh to see if he was ok. Robert climbed up the
stairs and opened the bedroom door. Sitting on top of his bed in the
middle of the dark room was Josh, crying.
"Josh... what is wrong?" Robert said as he quickly moved to
sit next to him.
"Andrew took Greg," Josh wept.
"What... what did he do?" Robert asked in disbelief.
"He took Greg to a new house he bought behind my back. He
says I have to decide where I want to live. It comes down to him wanting
me to end all contact with you."
"I'll move out then," Robert said with a heavy heart.
"No Robert..."
"If I move out then Andrew might move back here."
"No Robert," Josh said more insistently.
"Josh if I leave then everything will be fixed."
"No it wouldn't Rob!"
"Josh... I'm trying to help you out."
"No you are not!"
"Why do you say that?" Robert said not understanding why Josh
was arguing with him.
"Cause I don't want you to move out! I love you Robert!"
Josh said right before he wrapped Robert into a bear hug.
Both of them had know they still loved each other but in a
silent agreement they had stopped telling each other that the day after
they had broken up. With Josh's emotional declaration all of the barriers
Robert had put up to stop himself from reacting on his feelings fell to the
wayside. He lowered Josh onto the bed and climbed on top of him. He held
his love just like that, trying to imagine what Josh's face looked like
under the blanket of darkness. Regardless of what happened from this day
forth Robert was committed to fully expressing his feelings to Josh. No
more pretending to just be close friends. They were lovers. Even during
the years they had not slept together they had made love with mere glances.
Andrew had every right to be angry with the two of them.
Robert had made the mistake in turning down Josh's wedding
ring. Josh had made the mistake in marrying Andrew. Andrew had made his
own mistake in staying with Josh while at the same time making sure Josh
felt guilty for every moment he spent with Robert.
That was all over now. Robert was going to make sure that
Josh picked him this go around. No one loved Josh like Robert did and he
was sure that Josh didn't love anyone like his Rob. Robert had been too
immature while Josh had been too impatient but now he felt both of them
were ready to make this relationship work.
"Go to the guest room... I'll meet you there," Robert said as
he got off Josh.
"Ok..." Josh said as he got up and headed downstairs.
Robert had one thing he needed to do before he could reclaim
Josh in bed. He had to talk to the man who had been his companion for the
past twelve years... Dan. Unlike Andrew, Dan had not shown bitterness
toward the affection Robert gave Josh. It might have been that Dan always
knew and completely accepted Josh's role in Robert's life. It might have
also been that neither Robert nor Dan entered their relationship with the
idea that they would be an exclusive couple. Robert had stopped tricking
three years ago but he knew that Dan still fooled around every now and
then.
Dan had told Robert time and time again that he would not be
hurt if Robert got back with Josh. Dan had been more of a best friend and
butt buddy then a boyfriend anyway.
Still Robert entered the bedroom he shared with Dan with some
fear in his heart. "Dan..." Robert shook him awake.
"Yes Robert..." Dan asked dreary eyed.
"Andrew has moved out."
"Oh... ok. Good riddance I say."
"He took Greg with him."
"He did!" Dan said as he jumped out of bed.
"Yes... that is why I woke you up... Josh needs me."
"I understand... So the day has finally come...you're going
back to him."
"Yes."
"Well you have my blessing," Dan said as he kissed Robert on
the forehead.
"Thank you, Dan, for being understanding."
"Well it's about time I grew up and found myself a man just
for me. You were meant to be with him, you know. I always knew that. You
surprised me on how long the two of you were willing to just pretend being
close friends."
"Well we didn't fool anyone. Not even each other."
"I know... that is why I'm happy for you. I only have one
question though."
"Yes...?" Robert asked nervously.
"Why are you still here?"
"You want me to go?" Robert smiled in surprise.
"Well I don't think Josh can warm up his bed on his own."
"Ok..." Robert chuckled as he got off the bed, took something
out of the nightstand drawer and headed for the door.
"Goodnight Robert," Dan said as he lowered himself back into
bed... a content smile on his face.
**************************************************
Telling Dan his intentions had only been half his reason for
going back to his bedroom. Getting the things he now carried in the palm
of his hand was the other. It was a ring... a wedding ring that had Josh's
name engraved on it. When Josh had given him that ring so many years ago
Robert had been sick and filled with self loathing. He had turned down
Josh's offer of marriage but kept the ring. Now he wanted Josh to put it
on his finger, where it had always belonged.
Downstairs in the guestroom, Robert found Josh sitting on the
bed but this time with the lights on. Josh looked up at him with a weak
smile that Robert found very endearing. Robert walked over to Josh and
took one of his hands, putting the ring into it. Robert then took off the
ring Josh had on his left hand and looked at the engraving. As he had
always suspected his own name, not Andrew's was etched on the inner band.
That mean that the ring Andrew wore only had his own name on it as it had
always been intended.
"It's time these rings go back to where they belong," Robert
said as he got down on his knees. He slipped the ring that had his own
name onto his left ring finger but was only able to get it below his first
knuckle. He then took the ring he had just given Josh and slipped it on
his soul mate's finger where it remained loose.
"I guess I have put on a little weight," Robert chuckled as
he remembered the ring had fit twelve years ago.
"It's ok... it just mean there is more of you to hug."
"Hug..." Robert chuckled as he began to undress. "I want to
do a lot more then just hug you tonight."
"Same here but no sex... not tonight... not until I tell
Andrew that it is over."
"Ok..." Robert agreed, understanding Josh's feelings.
After getting undressed, he helped Josh out of his cloths and
joined him under the sheets. Face to face, Robert licked the salty dry
tears off Josh's face while his hands ran down his lover's back. Then when
he was sure Josh's face was cleaned of the marks of sadness, Robert kissed
him, gently at first but then with more and more passion. He rolled
himself on top of Josh; never letting his lips leave Josh's face.
The two men continued to let their passions for each other
build as their tongues dueled to enter each other's mouths. Josh then
nibbled on his lover's lips while both hands held Robert's head in place.
What Josh had said about them not having sex seemed to slip
both their minds as Robert slid off his boxers, letting his dick hump
against Josh's inner thigh. Josh for his part slipped his briefs down till
his cock was free. Robert then finished the job slithering down Josh's
body while his thumbs worked his underwear down. He then climbed his way
back up on to Josh, running his tongue along his inner calf and thigh until
he was sucking on Josh's balls. Josh ran his fingers through Robert's hair
as he received oral from Robert. More then what was being done to him, it
was who was doing it to him that drove Josh's passions. Robert's mouth had
barely covered Josh's dick when Josh fired his load into Robert mouth.
Robert then shared the load with his love in a kiss.
Robert then watched the post-orgasmic calm come over Josh's
face as he smiled up at him. He then rolled Josh on to his stomach. He
then mounted on top of Josh, pushing his dick between Josh's thighs.
Robert then used his own legs to keep Josh's legs close together, clamping
down on his dick. Fucking Josh between his legs, Robert built up his own
orgasm until he fired all over Josh's legs. He then lapped up the cum,
stopping every now and then to tongue feed part of it to Josh.
Now that both had reached climax, Robert snuggled up with
Josh, spooning him from behind with his arms wrapped around his waist
tightly. Josh for his part let his own hands rest on the large arms around
him.
"Josh... I want to take you away from all this," Robert
whispered into his lover's ear.
"My hands are a little full right now."
"That is why we need a vacation."
"We had one... we went hiking over the summer."
"Yeah... all nine of us. We were more like an invading army
then campers. You spent nearly the whole time keeping the camp site
clean."
"Well nine people produce a lot of mess."
"Yes Josh, but giving yourself latrine digging duties on top
of cooking the meals was too much. You didn't get much chance to enjoy
yourself. I know of this wonderful health spa in Miami that we can go to
for a month where you won't have to lift a finger. It'll just be the two
of us making passionate love between beauty treatments and fitness
training."
"A month... I can't be gone for a month."
"Yes you can... the boys can take care of
themselves... you've made Nate into a younger version of you. He is
responsible and knows how to cook up a storm."
"What about Greg?"
"There you need to accept the fact that there is little you
can do. We can stay around for a few more weeks to see if Andrew comes to
his senses but you can't force things. Greg will soon be 18 and then he
can chose to live wherever he wants. There is one person though who can
change things."
"Who?"
"Andrews ex-wife."
"But the two of them don't get along."
"Yes but she still gave him custody... why do you think she
did that?"
"Cause Greg asked her."
"Yes, but don't you think she also looked at who was going to
raise her son."
"You are telling me that she gave Andrew custody because she
knew I would be the primary care giver."
"Hahaha... I just love it when you use legal terms," Robert
laughed. "Yes... she knew you would be the one who would raise her son so
do you think she will be happy that Greg is no longer living with you?"
"She might... but I don't want to turn this into a court
battle. That would not help Greg out much."
"Yes... but it is something you should consider if you think
Greg needs it. Talk to Jessica about what is happening. You can do it
after you visit Andrew's new place and talk to Greg."
"Well he was supposed to call me when he arrived," Josh
sighed.
"Well I would not worry. He probably doesn't know what to
say. Andrew is still his dad. Being in the middle between the two of you
can't be easy."
"I guess you're right. I just want to know that he is ok."
"And I'm sure he is. Andrew loves Greg as well and would not
put him at risk."
"Ok..." Josh agreed.
"Now back to our honeymoon..." Robert brought up, preferring to
talk about how he was going to make Josh feel loved again.
