One cool October evening, Matthew was to be found making final preparations
for a slumber party.  His parents and younger brother were going to a town
a few hours away, to attend a sport's event.  Matthew's Mom and Dad had
said he could invite a friend to stay the night, if he wanted.  Surprised
by the offer, Matthew hadn't hesitated for even a moment about the question
of whom to invite.  Matthew had been crushing on Raymond for over a month
now.  There was no one with whom he would rather spend a whole night alone.
The opportunity was too thrilling to pass up.

His parents didn't know yet how he felt about Raymond, so it was "totally
okay" for Matthew to be inviting him over.  (Obviously, his parents thought
they were nothing more than friends).

I'll change that soon enough, with any luck, Matthew thought, as he
finished setting the table.

The doorbell rang, and Matthew nearly jumped out of his skin.  The
container of Take-Out Chinese food he had been carrying slipped from his
hand.  Luckily, it landed safely on the kitchen table.

Matthew raced to the door, then checked himself and slowed down.  Before
opening the door, Matthew snatched a spoon from the immaculately set table,
and gazed critically at his reflection.  A handsome face topped with brown
hair was reflected back; the brown eyes looked especially hungry,
concupiscent and inquisitive.  Matthew unnecessarily straightened a lock of
hair, and smoothed a non-existent wrinkle in his faded T-Shirt.  He
suddenly wondered if he was dressed right.  Were his T's and jeans not
right for this situation? Did they indicate that he thought this was
casual, unimportant? But what should he wear, then?

He started to panic.

The doorbell rang again.  The spoon clattered to the floor as Matthew, even
more flustered now, ran to the door and pulled it open.

"Sorry, I ..." Matthew began, then stopped, just staring at Raymond.

Ray looked even hotter than usual, if possible.  He had on a dashing Polo
shirt with a button-up collar, and artfully ripped designer jeans that
accentuated his graceful hips and firm butt.  His sexy blond hair was
brushed back impeccably, and his bright blue eyes sparkled in his handsome,
flawless face.

Matthew gawked for a second, then recovered.  "Hi," he managed.

"Hi," Ray returned, smiling a little uncertainly.

"Come on in," Matthew invited, stepping back.

Ray entered Matthew's house, and Matthew shut the door behind him.

"Um, thanks for coming," Matthew said, a touch awkwardly himself.  Where
was the bubbly Ray when you needed him?

"Thanks for inviting me," Ray said vivaciously.

"No problem," Matthew responded, leading the way to the kitchen.  "I have
Chinese food for dinner, if you're hungry," he offered, blushing just a
little.  "I thought of Chinese because of how much fun I had when we hung
out after Drama that one day.  We ate at that little restaurant by the
school, remember?"

Raymond smiled genuinely.  Even his teeth are sexy, Matthew's inner voice
gasped.  "That was great, wasn't it?" Raymond said in his deep drawl.

Matthew nodded enthusiastically, and led Raymond over to the table.
Together, they ate and drank.  The talk turned to Drama and mutual friends;
gradually, both boys began to relax, and to feel less inhibited by the
one-on-one interaction.  It was as though they were back at school, but
not.

"I have ice cream for dessert," Matthew said.

"I'm mad about ice cream!" Ray cried jubilantly.  "What kind is it?"

"Vanilla."

"My favorite," beamed Ray.

Matthew withdrew the carton from the refrigerator (he'd put it there to
keep it cool, but not frozen, so that they could eat it right away).
Matthew put a large dollop into a bowl and handed it to Ray, along with a
spoon.  As he passed over the bowl, Matthew accidentally-on-purpose allowed
his fingers to dance across the back of Raymond's hand.  It felt warm and
silky to the touch.

Matthew looked up just in time to meet Ray's gaze.  Ray was staring at him,
a hundred questions flickering in his animated blue eyes.  He seemed to
read Matthew's expression, because he smiled, a beautiful smile which
seemed to light up his entire face.

Matthew was melting about as fast as the tub of ice cream he was clutching
in his left hand.  Hastily, he spooned himself a bowlful, and shoved the
carton back into the freezer.

At last, both boys were seated.  Matthew watched Ray stick his spoon into
the sizable mound of ice cream.  A sphere of the ambrosial vanilla delicacy
was resting in the bowl of the spoon.  Ray looked up at Matthew then, and
their eyes locked intimately for the second time that evening.  Then, to
Matthew's surprise, Ray's hand, still holding the spoon, extended across
the table.  The spoon floated just inches away from Matthew's lips.
Matthew looked incredulously up at Ray, unable to believe his good luck.

"Come on," Ray coaxed, a smile playing around the corners of his mouth.

Matthew parted his lips, and Ray guided the spoon between them.  Matthew
devoured the ice cream, but it wasn't really ice cream he was thinking
about.  A slight sigh escaped him as his mind played a verboten film behind
his partly-closed eyes.

Ray winked.  "That was fun." He looked questioningly at Matthew, who could
only gaze back, totally lost in his daydream.  Then, just as suddenly,
Matthew understood what Ray was implicating with his steadfast, somewhat
lewd look.  Matthew shoved his own spoon into his bowl, and filled it with
ice cream.  Then, he reached his hand across the table.  His spoon hovered
in front of Ray's slightly opened lips.

Matthew waited for a moment, moving the spoon tantalizingly and caressing
Ray's lips with his eyes.  Ray opened his mouth wider, and Matthew aimed
the spoon inside.  Ray's eyes closed in ecstasy as he lapped up the ice
cream.  Matthew wondered vaguely if the same film was playing in Ray's
head.  Dare he hope?

He watched Ray's lips roll languidly over his teeth.  He watched Ray's
nimble tongue seductively licking the vanilla from his mouth.  He inwardly
fainted.

The boys continued feeding one another ice cream until both bowls were
empty.

"You have a little ice cream on your chin," Ray told Matthew, a smile
gracing his lips.

Matthew grabbed a napkin and started awkwardly wiping at his face.

"You're missing it," Ray laughed.  He got up, walked around until he stood
next to Matthew, and then reached out with a finger.  He rubbed at a smudge
on Matthew's chin.  Matthew barely restrained himself from gushing "Ahhh!"

Ray, in turn, appraised his handiwork shrewdly.  "It's kind of dried." He
unhesitatingly stuck his finger into his own almost-empty water glass, and
then reached back over to Matthew's face again.

The sensation of Raymond's moist finger on his face nearly drove Matthew
into a paroxysm of lust and desire.  A gasp of longing burst from Matthew's
throat.  Unable to hold himself back any longer, Matthew reached up with
both hands, and drew Ray to him by the shoulders, passionate with need.
Ray's muscular arms under the power of Matthew's firm but sensual grip was
incredibly, irresistibly amative.

"Let's go to the couch," Ray suggested, somewhat huskily.  He took Matthew
gently by the hand, and, together, they walked toward the sofa.

Matthew couldn't believe this was really happening.  Here he was, in his
own house, his first time truly alone with Raymond, and not only was he
already making some progress with Raymond romantically, but Raymond was
initiating most of it! Unable to readily accept his good fortune, Matthew
struggled to keep hold of his sanity as Ray softly pushed Matthew onto the
couch, using his own body to guide him.  As one, they sank into the
cushions, Matthew in Ray's lap, facing him.  To Matthew's delight, Ray
reached up and slid Matthew's glasses off.  Despite the fact that Raymond's
visage was now slightly blurred, Matthew could picture it so well in his
mind's eye that it hardly mattered.

"Is it okay if ..." Matthew leaned in, somewhat tentatively, unsure whether
Ray really wanted this.

"Please." Ray's eyes were full of his wanting.  Raw emotions and untamed
cravings festered and smoldered within their blue vibrancy.

With his attenuate hands, Matthew possessed himself of Ray's face.  Using
his fingers, he explored the texture and contours of Ray's velvety cheeks.
He drew lines around Ray's temples, his lips, his eyes.  Ray leaned forward
into Matthew's hands, and Matthew leaned forward, too, his chest resting
solidly against Ray's.  Their lips met, their arms seemed to fit
effortlessly around one another's waists.  The kiss deepened, their arms
tightened, they were melting together, the embrace becoming more and more
passionate.  Their lips joined tenderly, then harder, then softly again.
The variety of pressures was extremely arousing for both of them; it was as
though fiery tongues of energy were racing through their bodies.

They held each other for an exquisite amount of time, kissing, their hands
gradually loosening from one another's waists.  Matthew rested his hands on
Ray's chest, and Ray reached up and ran his fingers sensuously through
Matthew's silky brown hair.  The feeling of Raymond's fingers on his scalp
was almost intoxicating to Matthew; he moaned against Ray's mouth, and felt
his body collapsing into Ray's even more.  At the same moment, he decided
to experiment with something he'd been longing to do for what seemed like a
lifetime.  He affectionately parted his own lips, and allowed his tongue to
lightly dart across Ray's still-closed mouth.  He waited, preparing to
scrupulously assess Ray's reaction.

To Matthew's astonishment and joy, he felt Ray's lips opening beneath his
own, condoning the entrance of his tongue.  Carefully, Matthew permitted
his tongue to breach Ray's lips.  Their tongues slid over and around one
another, intertwining and tangling around each other in a dance that was
all their own.  The boys couldn't believe the amazing reactions the contact
between their tongues was creating.

They stayed like that, kissing and exploring, until Matthew, coming up for
air, gasped, "Can we go to my room?"

"I'd like that." Ray took Matthew's hand once again, and they stood up
together.

Hand in hand, they almost glided up the stairs into Matthew's cozy bedroom.
Raymond shut the door behind them, with a click that indicated the finality
of the situation.

Matthew sat down on the bed, and Ray sat beside him.  Their hands found one
another in the darkness (neither had bothered to turn on a light), and
their fingers laced together automatically.

"This is so ...  amazing," Matthew said.

"I know.  I ...  I really like you, Matthew."

Matthew gazed at Ray's silhouette, cloaked in darkness.  His eyes seemed to
glow like vivid pinpricks of brightness in the pitch-black.  "You do?" he
whispered.

Ray didn't answer in words.  He sprawled back upon the coverlet, drawing
Matthew down beside him.  Their lips sought one another again; lying
together on their sides, facing one another, they shared another extensive
kiss.

When the kiss ended, Matthew drew Ray close, and held him there, reveling
in the knowledge that Ray's body, so warm and soft and alive, was pressed
as tightly as could be against his own.  Lying together on Matthew's bed,
they embraced, hearts pounding, foreheads resting together, hands entwined
in one another's hair.

When their arms eventually unclasped, Matthew stood and crossed to the
dresser inside his half-open closet.  "I'm going to get into my pajamas.
Did you bring some?"

Ray looked up at him, seemingly lost in his own thoughts.  "What? Oh, um,
no.  I forgot."

Matthew reached into a drawer and tossed Ray one of his own T-shirts.  Ray
held it against his face.  He peeked over the neckline at Matthew.  "It
smells like you," he pronounced, and smiled.

Matthew blushed, grabbed another T-shirt for himself, and then returned to
the bed.  He sat beside Raymond, who was still lying spreadeagled on the
bedspread.

Matthew started to remove his shirt, but Ray reached up, simultaneously
restraining and gently captivating his hands.  The boys paused, taking time
to trace one another's knuckles and fingers.  "I'll do that for you,"
Raymond said finally.  He swiftly but tenderly reached under the hem of
Matthew's shirt and ran his hands and fingers over the soft, sensitive skin
of Matthew's chest.  There was something incredibly erotic about Ray
reaching beneath his clothes in order to touch him, and Matthew was unable
to stifle the primal moan that issued from his lips.  Ray smiled, and
pulled off Matthew's shirt.  He gazed in awe at Matthew's chest, then
leaned forward enough to press his face against it.  Before long, Matthew's
fingers were straying helplessly toward the buttons on Ray's shirt.  Before
too long, Raymond's shirt was off, and both boys were resting, bare from
the waist up, on Matthew's bed, investigating one another's chests with
eyes, hands and lips alike.

"Forget pajamas," Ray said, "let's just sleep shirtless.  It's much more
...  entertaining.  I'll just keep my boxers on."

Matthew shrugged, a roguish grin tugging at his lips.  "Fine by me.  I
might get cold, though; I tend to."

"I'll keep you warm," Ray breathed.

"Ahhh," Matthew sighed, exhilaration evident in his tone.

"I do want a shower, though," Raymond said.  "I always take one before bed.
Hey, I know!" His eyes danced merrily.  "What do you think of this: let's
get in some swim trunks and shower together!"

"Ahhh! Yes!" was Matthew's only reply.  He ran to his closet again, tossed
Ray an extra pair of trunks, and then ducked out of the room and into his
bathroom to change.  He stuck his head around the door frame and called to
Ray, who came bounding in.

"Keep the light off," Ray advised in a low purr, smiling knowingly.

Matthew turned on the shower to warm it up, and paused to examine Ray's
appearance in the trunks.  "Sex on a dish" was really the only way to
describe him.

"It should be warm enough now," Matthew said.  He took Ray's hand, and
together, they stepped into the shower, closing the sliding glass door
behind them.

It was somewhat of a tight fit, but they didn't mind.

Immediately, Matthew noted the water droplets pouring down Raymond's
muscular shoulders.  They looked so slick and inviting; Raymond's shoulders
were like highly charged magnets pulling his fingers.  The skin of Ray's
chest seemed to coruscate in the darkness.  His biceps bulged.

Matthew reached out, and enveloped Ray in an embrace.  Unintentionally, the
boys had backed into a corner.  Pressed against the shower wall, with water
beating down upon them, their faces and tongues again united.  The wet
bodies huddled closely, and they could sense each body part matching: chest
to chest, hip to his ....

At long last, Raymond withdrew from the embrace, and reached for the bar of
soap.  He lathered up a washcloth, and then, holding it in one hand, cupped
Matthew's chin with the other, and, smiling seductively, began to wash
Matthew's upturned face.  Not wasting any time, Matthew grabbed another
washcloth, lathered it with the fragrant soap, and wrapped his fingers
around Ray's chin, angling his face so he could see what he was doing.
Matthew watched, transfixed, as suds frothed from Ray's chin, fell down to
his pale throat, and cascaded down his chest in glistening arcs.  The
bubbles sparkled and mixed, fanning and spreading before Matthew's eyes.
There was something insanely arousing about seeing Ray's muscular body
enveloped in sheets of water and rivulets of slippery soap.  The sheen of
steam that sat on his brow was also extremely tempting to touch.  It was
all driving Matthew crazy.

As if the visions weren't enough, there was the physical presence of Ray's
hands, which had now left Matthew's face, and were now rubbing his arms and
shoulders rhythmically with the washcloth.  Raymond was moaning, obviously
not missing the sensuality of watching Matthew being covered in soap.
Presently, Raymond dropped the cloth and let his soapy hands race over
Matthew's entire body.

Both boys took considerably longer than necessary washing one another.
When the bubbles had all melted away down the drain, they stood, just
staring at one another, the water raining from their bodies, the steam
gushing from the shower.  Matthew reached for the bottle of shampoo, and
began to massage it into Raymond's scalp, relishing the saturated feel of
Raymond's locks of curly blond hair sifting between his fingers.  Molding
Raymond's tresses into tiny, soapy golden plumes, Matthew thought he had
never been this excited in his life.

Ray was now washing Matthew's hair.  The feeling of the shampoo raining
down his back and chest while Ray's hands roamed over his head was so
erotic that Matthew thought his knees might give out any second, spilling
him onto the shower floor at Ray's feet.  Although this wouldn't have been
a complete disappointment, he thought it best to remain standing upright,
and did his best to reign in his excitement.  This was made much more
difficult, however, when Ray's hands left his head and moved to his chest.
Ray's soapy fingers skated over the smooth concavities of Matthew's chest,
exploring.  Ray then began tracing small circles, first gently, then more
forcefully, then gently again.  Matthew thought he might succumb to
Raymond's wishes--whatever they were--in a moment, should Raymond happen to
ask.  He clung to Raymond to remain standing.

All too soon, the boys exited the shower, their trunks streaming.  They
exchanged the trunks for towels, which they draped around their waists,
only because they felt it was compulsory to do so.

Matthew ran to his room and changed into his boxers.  He climbed into his
warm, familiar bed and pulled the blankets up to his chin, just as Ray came
into the room in nothing but boxers, his towel in his hand.  Ray gave his
damp hair a run-through with the towel, and then cast it aside and slid
under the covers beside Matthew.

Both sighed with infinite contentment.

In the light that filtered into the bedroom from the hall, Matthew could
just make out the happiness kindling in Raymond's expression.  His cheeks
were flushed, his blue eyes flitted around the room with a fevered buoyancy
Matthew had never before seen.  His blond hair, poised in a corona around
his lit face, seemed, again, to call Matthew's hands, his touch, his
caress.

Raymond settled close to Matthew, and Matthew leaned his head against
Raymond's shoulder.  Raymond stroked Matthew's hand; with his free hand,
Matthew reached up and touched Raymond's wavy locks.  Raymond huddled
closer to Matthew for warmth and affection.  Their lips sought one another,
and they held the embrace.

"You know," Raymond said, as they settled back on the pillows, their
fingers interlocked, their shoulders pressed solidly together, "I would go
anywhere with you, Matthew.  Just to stay with you." He reached over and
touched various locations on the World Map that hung on Matthew's wall.
"I'd go here, and here, and here." He turned away from the map and back
toward Matthew, who was watching him intently, hanging on his every word.
"If only I knew you'd be with me, I would go to the ends of the Earth with
you, Matthew." He reached out for Matthew, something resembling
vulnerability raging in his sky-colored eyes.

The boys relaxed on their backs, their hands still linked between them.
After awhile, Matthew's eyes began to close.  He reached out and gently ran
his fingers along Ray's jawline.  "This has been the most amazing night of
my life."

"Same here," Ray said, reaching out.  With a feather-light touch, he
skimmed his fingers across Matthew's eyes, closing them, fingering the long
lashes.  "Go to sleep now.  I'll see you in my dreams."

Matthew nodded.  "Same here," he echoed.

They kissed one last time: a long, exquisite kiss with all the trimmings.
Then, arms wrapped about one another, and bodies warmed with love pressed
sensuously together, the two teens drifted into blissful slumbers.
