With painting for his exhibition, swimming, and homework, his schedule was filling up rapidly. Things would settle down in the New Year after his opening was long past and swimming finals were done. In the meantime, Josh and Eric were very busy. "Okay, I think we can go furniture shopping on Saturday afternoon," Eric announced. "We need to do laps in the pool in the morning, but our homework should be all caught up by then and you seem to have almost enough paintings for your show." "Yeah, but the ones that are finished need to be matted and framed." "I think we'd better get them over to the frame shop because you and I can't do all of that ourselves." "You're right," Josh agreed as he gave Eric a kiss on the cheek. "Come here and kiss me properly," Eric joked. "That was like the way an old married person would do it." "How's this?" Josh asked as he pulled his husband into an open mouthed kiss that left them both breathless. "Hmm, let's see if it affected me more than the first one," Eric said as he guided Josh's hand to the bulge in his jeans. The boys were far enough ahead in their studies to take the rest of the evening off. So, they decided to tackle the most important things first. That meant wrestling naked on the rug in their studio/living room. Eric pinned Josh down on his back and Josh made a half-hearted attempt to reverse their positions. Both guys were giggling too much to be serious. Instead of trying to unseat Eric, Josh pulled their faces closer together so that they could kiss again. Marriage had not dampened their ardor. Soon their tongues were wrestling for dominance. Eric worked his way down to Josh's chest to stimulate his nipples which were already erect in anticipation. He play-nipped by pressing Josh's sensitive nubs between his tongue and upper teeth. Each time he applied pressure unexpectedly, Josh inhaled sharply. Before Eric was done, he had his lover moaning non-stop. Next, Eric nibbled his way southward stopping just below Josh's balls. By then, Josh remembered he wasn't holding up his end and asked Eric to stop until they could change their positions. Moments later, they were busy washing each other's balls. That action flowed seamlessly into serious sucking. Try as they might, they couldn't hold back much longer once they teased each other's sphincters. Their reward came in hot, forceful volleys of man cream. "I taste chlorine on your bod," Eric snickered. "I can taste it on you too. We'd better get something better than the soap in the shower dispensers in the locker room to change the flavor." Josh suggested. "I think there might be some citrus/lime or strawberry stuff on the market that would help change the taste." "Oh well, it really doesn't matter as long as the flavor of your nectar isn't affected. I think mine's gotten better in the months since my surgery." "How did you know it was different?" Josh asked. "You swallowed quickly and didn't savor it or share it, so I tasted it myself and found it was bitter. But lately you've gone back to keeping it in your mouth and letting me have some in return. Of course a bunch of it's been deposited elsewhere..." "You're right on both scores, Babe. It does taste great again, but a lot of it has gone in my body in a vain effort to get me pregnant." "That's okay." Eric giggled. "We'll keep trying and if we fail, we can adopt like Wade and Roger." The boys took a quick rinse in their shower to remove sweat, cum, and rug fuzz before turning to less important tasks – like working on their place. They finished painting the bathroom walls before settling down to go to sleep at a decent hour. ---------- When they went down to join the rest of the extended family for breakfast, they were surprised to see Luc sitting at the breakfast table. Blake was making breakfast and the boys pitched in to help. Ben and Scott seemed to be sleeping later for some reason – probably one the boys could guess at. Luc explained that he was mad at Garret and his mom had allowed him to spend the night after clearing it with Scott. He had wanted to talk to Rob as well as have a change of scenery. (Truth be told, he also wanted to make it harder for Garret to contact him.) "So, what's it about or would you rather not talk about it?" Josh asked. "He's been spending a lot of time "studying" with a guy, Jared, who transferred in from California for his senior year. I'll bet they're studying anatomy and neither of them is in biology. They're practically in all the same classes and the guy is cute as fuck. I think Garret creamed his jeans the minute the guy come into his first class. I guess I need to forget about him. I'm glad now that I didn't give him my cherry like I'd planned to." "Hey little Bro," Rob called as he came into the room, burping Robbie. "I still wouldn't give up on Garret before he gets to explain things. I know of several people who jumped to the wrong conclusion including me. When I saw Reese kiss Blake out in the back yard, I figured he was cheating on me. Luckily, I waited to hear what he had to say before I accused him of messing around behind my back." "Yeah, I was totally blind-sided when Reese did that!" Blake agreed. "I certainly wasn't trying to make up with him." "Some of us guys have heard how our friend Dane almost broke up with Colt because he didn't trust him like he should have. It happens." Josh said. "I've known Garret for quite a few years and never known him to be a cheat or a liar." The guys were halfway through breakfast when the back doorbell rang and Blake answered because he was the closest to it. A distraught Garret was standing on the step looking like it was the end of Western civilization. "Is my boyfriend still here?" he asked. "I haven't been able to reach him on his cell so I finally called his mom. She said he was staying over." "Come on in," Blake told him. "Luc, why did you run out on me last night? I've been up half the night trying to figure out why you're angry with me." "You know damn well why I'm pissed! You've been hanging around that Jared person looking like a lost puppy." "I have not!" "You have too!" "Have not!" "Have too!" "Whoa!" Rob raised his voice. "Sit down and talk this out sensibly. You sound like a couple of first graders on the playground. Let's start with Garret. What's your explanation for the amount of time you've been spending with Jared?" "He and I are in that tough advanced physics class and I've been floundering. He was kind enough to say he'd tutor me to catch up. I really need to get a decent grade if I'm going to make it in college next year." "But you've been there three nights a week!" Luc grumbled. "Only before the big test - which happens to be today. I'm going to fail it now because I'm so tired from worrying last night about us." "So I suppose it will be my fault if you do, huh?" Luc snorted. "No, damn it! I'm not here to fight with you or accuse you of anything. I just want to know that you still love me. I know Jared is good looking, but he has a girlfriend in California and he's broken hearted that his dad wouldn't let him finish his senior year there. I've been trying to be his friend because he doesn't know anyone here and he's way smarter in physics. I'm not infatuated with him." "Garret, have you eaten," Blake asked, changing the subject. "I have a couple of energy bars in the car, I can't eat right now. Luc, let's go up in the bedroom and talk in private, please!" "Go ahead, Bro. I'll put your dishes in the dishwasher," Rob promised. Luc and Garret met Ben and Scott on the stairs as they went up. About 15 minutes later they came down. Luc followed Garret to his car and they left for school. They weren't arguing, but didn't look as if they'd spent the last several minutes resolving their issues and making up either. None of the guys had leisure time to worry about it because everyone had a full schedule. ---------- On Friday, the test scores were posted by secret number on the door of the physics classroom. Garret checked his and couldn't believe it. He had aced the test despite his nearly sleepless night. He and Jared compared their grades and found that Jared had beaten him out by a mere two points. They high-fived each other in their excitement. Luc witnessed it as he came around the corner. His face fell. "Hey Luc! I did almost as well as Jared did on the test! I'm really pumped." "Well you'd better suck his dick to thank him," Luc said in sotto voce. "Jared, I'll see you later. Right now, my boyfriend needs a little TLC. I've been neglecting him while we studied. Sorry." "What are you doing?" Luc nearly shouted. Then lowering his voice, "You've just outed yourself." "I don't give a shit!" Garret hissed back. "If I lose you, nothing matters." Then he said in a calmer voice, "When I told you I loved you, it wasn't just words." "So you're really not hot for Jared?" "If you trusted me, you'd know I only love you. Part of why I'm trying to work so hard in school is so that I can be smart enough to get through college in four years and get a good job to support us while you finish." "You've really thought about the future – like long term?" "Is that stupid of me?" "Maybe." "Why, are you done with me? Are you looking for someone else to have fun with?" "No, I just realize what a selfish, immature baby I am. Are you sure you'll want to have a high school boy as your boyfriend next year?" "Sure enough to go to the University of Minnesota so I don't have to leave town." "And I thought maybe you'd be going to UCLA." "Why would you think that?" "To be with you-know-who." "Jared?" "Yeah." "No way. Luc, you were ready to give me everything. I didn't want to take advantage of you, but that doesn't mean I don't appreciate the offer. I don't know everything about love and relationships, but I know what I feel for you," Garret insisted, placing his hand over his heart. "So are you going to take Jared out to a movie to thank him for studying with you?" "I hadn't planned to. I might get him a gift certificate to someplace." "I think WE should take him out." "Seriously?" "Yeah. I think he should be rewarded and I'm going along to make sure he knows you belong to me! Seriously, I do want to become acquainted with him if he's going to be your friend. I don't want to be jealous and spiteful. He might be as nice as you say. He certainly is easy on the eyes." "Now I'm going to be the jealous one," Garret smiled for the first time in nearly 14 hours. He felt he had learned an important lesson. Never take your lover for granted. Don't assume that his feelings won't get hurt if you neglect him. Never appear to be infatuated with another guy even if you stand in awe of his intelligence – at least not if you want to maintain a relationship! ---------- That evening Luc and Garret took Jared out for pizza and a movie. Luc found that he was good company and a really decent guy. At one point while sharing a large cheese and sausage, Jared said something that had been on his mind since before school in the morning. "Are you guys actually, like dating? I wasn't sure what was going on when Garret said he had to give you tender loving care. Was that for real, or do you tease like that. I mean, you both act straight enough." "We're drama majors," Luc giggled. "We're both pretty good actors." "For real?" Jared asked. "No, I'm the one who's too much into drama, I guess. I was jealous that Garret was spending so much time with you. Yeah, we are dating. Is that a problem?" "It's not my business, but I just don't see what two guys have that would attract them to each other." Luc stood up pretending to reach for another napkin and subtly cupped his own crotch. "Oh, now I get it," Jared laughed. "I've never been interested in that, but to each his own. I so want to get laid by Caitlin. I can't tell you how bad my balls ache." "We can empathize on that score," Garret assured him. "So are you saying you're a virgin?" "Yeah, but don't spread it around. It's not cool." "Don't you want to save yourself for that special person?" "Now you sound like my parents!" Jared exclaimed. "I guess it's okay if you're cool with it." "We won't tell if you don't tell about us," Luc offered. "My boyfriend was a little hasty this morning. If someone overheard, I'm ready to live with it, but we once agreed we'd stay in the closet `til I'm out of high school." "I'm the one who said it, and I'm the one who screwed up. Will you forgive me, Baby?" Garret asked gazing into Luc's eyes. "You know I will." Jared coughed quietly bringing them back to their surroundings, blushing severely. "Sorry," Garret said as both realized their faux pas. "No problem. And I certainly won't say anything to anyone that might bring you out before you're ready. I think you're a cute couple." ---------- Garret and Luc had both gotten permission to stay at the Brady-Larson house as they had in the past. But unlike those earlier times, both families knew they'd be there together and assumed they'd sleep in the same bed. After showering together, they settled down in the guest room which was Rob and Blake's former bedroom. "I'll bet these walls could tell hot stories if they could talk," Luc giggled. "Imagine how many times my bro and Blake have done it in here." "Let's not think about anybody but you and me," Garret suggested. "I've got a tube of lube and you can take me tonight if you want." "I thought you said it was cool to be a virgin." "It is, but I want to prove that I'm serious about loving you." "You don't have to prove anything to me." Luc said. "I was ready to call it quits this morning in this very house. I love the offer, but I don't think I'm mature enough to accept it. I'll love you just as much if we suck each other off or if we only cuddle." "Okay, but the offer stands whenever you want it." ---------- Author's notes: Thanks to all who wrote to me since last posting: Wijnand, Bill, Paul R, Walter S, Carroll, Bert, Rad, Tom A, Jim S, Rutabaga, Jim We, Jim C, Mark H, Mel K, Roger L, John McD, and Harry T.
