Subject: Like We Used To

I was waiting after school for my dad to pick me up, so I could use my
permit and practice driving.  I saw Kyle sitting down and came close to
him.  I'm in 11th and he's in 10th, so we don't have any classes together.
He was a friend of mine in middle school.  Before he sees me, I hear he's
humming Circle of Life from the Lion King.

I sit next to him and make a lions roar.  He looks up and smiles.

"Hi Evan."

"Hi Kyle.  What's up?"

"Nothing."

"I'm waiting for my dad.  I have my permit now.  I get to drive!" I brag.

"Cool dude."

"Have you seen that new DVD for the Lion King?  I here there's a new song."

"How did you know I liked the Lion King?" he asks, puzzled.

"Kyle, duh, you were humming it when I came up.  Besides, I remember it used
to be your favorite movie."

"Yeah."

"So have you heard of the new DVD?" I ask again.

"Yeah.  I got it."  He's a Disney freak; he's got everything Disney.

"Is it cool?  Cooler than the video?" I ask, because I have the video from
when I was a kid.

"Yeah.  Want to see it?  Want to come over sometime?"

"Yeah. Is there anytime your brother's not there," I ask carefully.  A few
years ago, his brother walked in when Kyle and I were jacking off together
and threatened to tell everyone we were gay.  He never did tell, but we
stopped hanging with each other;  I guess because it freaked us both out
then.

"Not really," he says bummed.

"Want to come over to my house?  And we can watch videos, like we used to?"

"Yeah.  Ok.  Cool.  You still got a pool?"

"Hell yeah.  I swim everyday dude."

"Even now."

"Yeah, it's heated."

So we trade phone numbers because we had forgotten each others because it
had been so long since we hung out. My dad comes, and I feel cool when Kyle
sees me driving with my dad!

I call him and invite him over Friday for Lion King and a sleepover.  In
high school, kids don't have sleepovers like we did in middle school, but I
was hoping he would say yes.  He did!  I cleaned up my room; my dad had a
heart attack. On Friday, after school, my dad picked us up.  I wasn't
allowed to drive with Kyle in the car, so I didn't get to show off.

After we got to my house, he saw the pool and said, "Can we swim first?"

I wanted to skinny dip, like I usually do; but was afraid to ask him.  See,
I am gay.  Nobody knows it except my best friend.  Even though he used to
skinny dip with me a few years ago, we always wear suits now because I'm gay
and he's straight.  But it doesn't really matter, because he's still my best
friend.

So we changed in my room.  Kyle turned his back, so all I got to see was his
butt; but I did notice he had hair under his arms like me. We swam a while,
jacuzzi'ed a while, swam some more, then went in to change for dinner.  Once
again, all I saw was his butt when we changed. After dinner, we laid down in
the living room to watch the video.  Yeah, I know it's for kids, but we
enjoyed it and had a good time.

After the movie, I get brave and ask, "Want to Jacuzzi again?  Like we used
to?"

He gives a big smile. "You mean naked?"

I nod.  "Sure.  Like we used to."

He looks around for my dad.  "It's cool," I assure him.

As we start to undress he asks, "We get naked here and just leave it here?"

"Yeah. Unless you want to wear your boxers and strip outside."

"That sounds better."  So we both go out in our boxers.  I turn on the
bubbles, pull off my boxers, exposing my semi, and hop into the Jacuzzi. He
strips and gets in so fast that I don't really get a good look.

He gets that smile again.  "Can we blow the jets?  Like we used to?"  He
means point them on our dicks to get boners and get horny.

I grin.  Big.  "Yeah, sure." Good, I think this means he'll jack with me.

"I bet mine is bigger than yours."

Well when he was in 7th and I was in 8th mine was bigger.  His is probably
bigger than mine, but I accept his challenge. "No way," I say.

He looks around.  "Ready?" Oh, yeah, I'm way more than ready.  I nod.  He
stands up and sits on the side.  He pulls it away from his body, pointing it
straight up.  My eyes pop out of my head. It's huge.  "Six and a half," he
announces. I stare.  "Let's see yours."

I hop up next to him, showing off my 5.5 inches proudly.  "You grew a lot,"
I tell him.

"Hehe.  Yeah." I guess I'm staring too much, because he says, "You like it?"

Hmmmm. What to say? The truth?  `I'm gay and I love your dick.' No, too
risky.

"Well, it's way bigger than mine."  Ok, that's neutral.  And even true.

"Yeah, not like it used to be," he says.

"It grew a lot," I say, stupidly stating the obvious.

"Yeah." We just sit there, our boners exposed. Finally we get cold and wrap
our towels and go inside. We pull on boxers, but nothing else. We lie around
and talk and finally turn off the light.

In the semi dark room, we continue to talk; this time about more sexual
topics.

"You done anything yet? With a girl?"

"No," I reply.  "You?"

"No."  Silence.  "You got a girlfriend?"

"No."

"Me neither." The tension in the room starts to rise.  But it's good
tension.  I think.

"You got a boner?"

"Yes.  You?"

"Yeah."

"Want to jack off together?  Like we used to?"

"Ok."  He seems relieved.  It's not that light in the room, but I can see
he's going for it.  Plus I can hear him.  The sight and sounds of him
jacking push me to come in less than a minute. I let myself make good
noises, so he can tell I came. Then with nothing else to do, I roll on my
side and watch him as best as I can in the dark.  He takes longer; about
three or four more minutes, then also makes a lot of noise when he comes.

After he stops breathing heavy, he says, "What you got to clean up with?"

Yeah. I forgot about that.  "How about we go to the bathroom?  We can clean
up there."

We got up, holding our spermy dicks in our hand.  It's nice when I turn on
the bathroom light.  He is covered all over with sperm. "You did some
serious shooting.  That's a lot."

"Yeah, I was horny."

After cleaning up, taking as long as possible, we head back to our sleeping
bags.

"You still jack off with your friends?" he asks casually.

"No.  Do you?"

"No.  They all think it's too gay."

"Yeah."  No, not `yeah it's too gay, "Yeah that's what my friends think
too."

"You think its ok?" he asks.

"Yeah, sure why not.  We're not hurting anybody or anything."

"Yeah, besides it's fun," he adds.

"Yeah," I agree, excited that I might have a jacking friend once again.

After a long silence, he turns to face me, his face inches from mine.  He
asks quietly, "You ever kiss anybody?"  I turn to face him. Uh, maybe I even
have MORE than just a jacking friend?

"No," I admit truthfully.

"Would you ever?"

"Yeah.  If it was somebody I liked."  Silence.  "Like you."  There, I said
it.

"Ok, close your eyes," he whispers.  I do.  Softly, his lips touch mine. I
feel a bolt of electricity power surging through my body.  I have never
kissed before, but I know to open my mouth a little.  Slowly I stick my
tongue out to meet his.  ANOTHER power surge zaps me all the way down to my
toes. He pulls away.

I open my eyes.  He's looking at me. "That was nice." No, it was more than
nice it was great.  It was a monumental moment in my life. It was my first
truly gay experience.

"Close your eye," I ask him.  He does.  I kiss him this time.  It still has
the same electricity charge. At this moment I want to be inside of him, I
want him to be inside of me.  I now realize the point of fucking.  I had
only thought of it in the abstract before, never quite understanding the
point.  Now I think I understand.  Now I want to become part of him, have
him become part of me. I also know that I am not going to fuck; my dad has
indoctrinated me good.  It's dangerous. I need to wait till I'm 18.  I'm not
ready.

Oh, but I am ready.  I am ready now.  With Kyle.  I am so ready.

After we break, he wraps his arms around me and we pull as close to each
other as possible. We hold on to each other all night.  Hanging on for
friendship. Hanging on for love.  Hanging on for life.
