Secret Admirer-8
Discoveries

I awoke to rays of light shining in through my blinds. My eyes were heavy
with sleep, but I was content. When my eyes adjusted, I saw what the
sunlight was illuminating. Talan was lying in bed next to me. He was
completely naked, and the sheet was tossed off of the bed. Memories of the
night before came flooding back to me. I experienced my first ever blow
job, and then about 5 more after that. We didn't end up going to sleep
until about 4 in the morning. That thought caused me to glance at my alarm
clock. The LED face was showing that it was only 10:30. I hadn't slept for
too long, but I felt rested and energized. I looked back at my man. A smile
crossed my face when I realized he must have been having a very good dream.

His dick was pointing at his face as if telling me to look at it. The smile
on his face made me believe that something very pleasant must be happening
in his dream. I was content to let him sleep, but I knew we needed to
talk. Last night, Christmas night, we had spent getting acquainted with
each other in more intimate ways. We never talked about our problems. They
were still there, but I knew I was determined to keep our relationship
going. My sanity depended on it.

I slowly edged over in the bed and kneeled down to where his cock was. I
licked it from base to tip, and then engulfed it. It wasn't long before I
felt hands on the back of my head. A few more bobs later, and I was having
my breakfast, and it was full of protein.

"Wow. What a way to wake up." Talan said when he finally caught his breath.

"Well, I saw an opportunity...arise, so I took advantage of it." I said
with a wink.

"I love you so much." Talan said as he pulled me up to him to give me a
kiss.

"I love you, too, Tally, but we do need to talk about all this."

"Okay, baby. Talk."

I glanced at our naked bodies. "Maybe we should put some clothes on first."

"Well, I guess, but please don't put on a shirt."

"Why not?" I asked him with a puzzled look on my face.

He placed his finger between my pecs. "Cause I wanna look at your
body. Staring at these pecs, those perfect nipples, these six pack abs, is
going to make me want to fix our issues all the more." He said while he was
running his finger from my pecs to the waistline of my newly adorned
shorts.

"So, you just want me for my body?" I asked with a cocked eyebrow.

"Well, I want this, too." He said as he grabbed my dick through my shorts.

I tossed my head back as he applied pressure to my now rigid member. My
teenaged hormones got the best of me, and before we talked, Talan made sure
to give me the best blow job of all the ones he had given me this far.

"Okay, baby, we really do need to talk now." I said when I finally caught
my breath after a mind blowing orgasm.

"I'm all ears." Talan said with my smile planted on his face.

"Not here. We need to be somewhere public where you can't take advantage of
me." I replied with a laugh.

"Well, where to?" He said as he got up.

"Imma get in the shower. You decide, k?"

I turned the temperature to a warm spray, and then I stepped into the
shower. I was lathering up my hair when I felt a presence behind
me. "Tally, what are you doing?"

"Having some more fun." With that said, Talan brought me to my second
orgasm since waking up, as I did him.

*

We were driving down the road towards the diner where I had my showdown
with Averie, our fingers interlocked on the center console. I couldn't help
but let my mind wander. That time the year before, I was heavily
contemplating suicide. It was funny how my life changed so fast. I knew it
was due for some more changes, but I was going to be in the driver's seat,
so to speak, when it came to those. Asserting myself and initiating change
was never something I was good at, but I was willing to give it a try. As
we got out of the car and walked into the diner, Talan managed to snake his
arm around my waist. His grip tightened when Brian approached us.

"Hey Brian!" I said as I pulled free of Talan's arm and gave Brian a
hug. "Thank you for the other day, by the way."

"I didn't do nothin', but you're welcome. Hey Talan."

"Brian." Talan's tone of voice was cold. I would address that later. I
ordered the same thing as last time, and made the same deal with Brian that
I made when I was here with Averie. No sooner did Brian leave that Talan
started on me.

"What the fuck was that, Nathanial?"

"What do you mean? And don't cuss at me, Talan."

"The whole Brian thing. Y'all seem awful chummy."

"Oh don't tell me you are jealous. That's hilarious! Brian and me? Really
Talan?" I couldn't help but laugh.

"Well, he is pretty how nowadays." My laugh died instantly.

"Talan, surely you don't think there is anything more than friendship
between me and Brain."

"There isn't is there?"

"No. We are strictly friends."

"Alright. Good. Now, let's talk."

"Yeah, let's. Spill about Averie. Don't leave out any details."

"Can I at least see this infamous text message she sent you? Mike almost
killed her, man."

I pulled out my phone and took one look at the picture before passing the
phone to Talan. I will never forget that picture. Averie placed a positive
pregnancy test over a picture of her and Talan kissing. The caption read,
"The baby is his, faggot. You're history. ;)"

Talan looked at the picture for a minute and then slammed his hand against
the table. "That fuckin' bitch! I'll kill her!"

"Talan, calm down. I took care of her already. Now, explain how on Earth
she could possibly be pregnant without you cheating on me."

He reached across the table and grabbed my hand. "Baby, I would never cheat
on you."

"Good. Now explain to me how she is pregnant."

"Okay. So I know I told you that I only had sex with her once, and that's
the truth. However, I changed the time frame around a bit. It happened
about a week before you came out to me. I was so upset about it, but she
kept telling me that only a faggot wouldn't want to have sex with his
girlfriend. I couldn't be outed for fear of losing you. I had sex with
her. The condom she had was too small, and it busted right as I was
cumming. It was too late to pull out then, so I just let it happen. I was
disgusted with myself. I didn't think she was gonna get pregnant, but then
she told me about a week before she told you. I did..." I cut him off.

"You knew for a week and didn't tell me?" I asked as I pulled my hand from
his.

"Nathan, I didn't want it to be true. I thought if I didn't tell anyone, it
wouldn't be true. Of course, being the bitch that she is, she told Mike. I
had to beg him not to tell you. I was planning on letting you know as soon
as I got home. I promise I was, but she beat me to it. Baby, I would never
do anything to hurt you intentionally. You have got to know that."

I was thinking it over for a few minutes. Unbeknownst to me, my
insecurities were slowly creeping back in. They made my decision for me. I
tossed a 20 on the table, and stood up. "Talan, you need to be with the
mother of your child. You shouldn't be with me. I'm not good enough for
you. I'm hideous. Send Averie my best wishes."

I walked away from the table thinking, `What the fuck, Nathan? You told
Averie you weren't going to lose him, and you just gave him up. What the
fuck is wrong with you?' However, I couldn't make myself turn around. I
kept walking until I got out the door and was standing beside my
car. That's when I felt a hand on my shoulder. Talan turned me around and
placed his hands on either side of my face.

"Natty, I love you! I want to be with you! I don't know why you think
you're hideous. You have the most gorgeous green eyes I've ever seen." With
that said, he kissed both of my eyes. "You have the cutest nose I've ever
seen." He kissed my nose. He rubbed his nose against mine which caused me
to smile. "Those dimples of yours are breathtaking." He kissed my
dimples. "These lips. So supple and irresistible. I could kiss these lips
of yours all day long if you would let me. Will you?" I slowly nodded my
head yes, and he leaned in and gave me a kiss. It started out as a simple,
soft peck, and then turned into much more. He was kissing me with such
passion. He was trying to let me know he loved me, and it was me he wanted
to be with. "Do you believe me now, Natty? I love you! You are the person
I'm meant to be with. I want to grow old with you. Raise a family of our
own. Have grandkids. I want you to be there by my side when I wake up in
the morning and when I go to sleep at night. We have a future together,
Nathanial Quincy. I am not going to sit by and watch your insecurities get
the better of you. I will do anything I can to make you believe that I
choose you to spend my life with. What do you need me to do, Nathan?"

With tears in my eyes, I looked at him. "Nothing, Talan. I believe you."

"Are you sure, Natty? I'll do anything for you. Absolutely anything."

I'm sure the smirk I got on my face was absolutely evil, but I had a
plan. "Alright then. Hop in the car. We have somewhere to go."

"Muffin, what's wrong?" Brad said to Matt when he noticed him being
distant.

"Umm...it's..."

"What is it, baby?"

"Well..." Matt looked down at the floor. "I think we shouldn't see each
other anymore."

Brad felt the tears welling up in his eyes. "Wh...why?"

Matt knew he needed to tell him the truth. "I've found somebody
else. Someone who makes me happier than you do."

"Who?"

"Alexandra Daryl."

Brad completely lost it. "A girl?! You can't be serious, Matt! I have given
you a year of my life! An entire fucking year! You are willing to throw
away everything we have for some damn girl?!"

"She isn't some damn girl. She is very special to me. I hope we can still
be friends. I still love you."

"Get out." Brad said as calmly as possible.

"What?"

Brad looked at Matt with tears running down his face. "I said, get out!
NOW!"

"Can I at least get one last kiss? Don't you owe me at least that?"

"Owe you? I don't owe you shit Matt!"

"Just one, Brad. That's all I ask for."

"Okay. Close your eyes." As soon as Matt closed his eyes, Brad's hand
clenched into a fist, and he hit Matt as hard as he could. "Fuck you, Matt!
I don't want to be friends with you anymore. When you realize that you
don't want a girl, but a man, I'm gonna be long gone. Get out of my house!"

Doubled over in pain, Matt started walking towards the front door. He felt
terrible for doing what he did to Brad, but he knew he needed to end the
relationship. He found happiness elsewhere.

Brad was sitting on his bed, curled into a tight ball, crying his eyes
out. He loved Matt. He knew Matt loved him back. He was so confused, but he
didn't know what to do. He picked up his cell phone and shot a text to the
one person he knew he could count on.

Brad: I need you...

*

"So, you see Mr. Bonabre, Averie tried to use this pregnancy against
us. She is a very mean spirited girl. We have heard our fair share of the
word faggot from her."

Mr. Bonabre looked me in the face. "Well, I don't know where Averie has
learned this spiteful behavior. We preach acceptance and tolerance in our
church. All of God's children are special, and no one deserves to be
treated the way you boys have been treated. I think I have a proposal that
we all can find suitable. Averie will sign over full parental rights to you
the day the baby is born. However, I still want to have contact with my
grandchild. Mrs. Bonabre would never forgive if I didn't get contact with
our first grandchild."

Talan looked at Nate in awe. He always knew that Nate knew how to take
charge of a situation, but he never knew he could be so demanding without
stepping on people's toes or making people angry.

"That sounds very agreeable to me. I must admit to you, though, that you
will need to keep close tabs on Averie. She has told me that she is going
to have an abortion so that we can't raise the baby."

"Don't you worry. She will only be leaving this house for school. Her older
brother is taking the next semester off. He will be the one making sure she
doesn't leave."

"Thank you, Mr. Bonabre. It means the world to me, and I know how much it
means to Silent Sally over there, but for some reason he is too tongue tied
to talk."

"No need to thank me, son. Now, can I get a hug before you boys leave?
After all, we are going to be related, kinda."

Both Talan and I gave Mr. Bonabre a hug, and we no sooner got out the door
when Talan attacked me. He was showering me with kisses on every part of my
face. "Okay! Okay! I get it. You're happy! Let me breathe, man!"

"You are amazing! Anybody ever tell you that?" Talan said as he pulled me
into a strong hug.

"Only everybody I've ever met. Now let me go ya' big oaf! My phone is
vibrating."

	Text Message
	Brad Sterno

Brad: I need you...

Me: What's wrong? You okay?

Brad: No. Can you please come over? Alone...

Me: I'm on my way.

"Talan, can you drop me off at Brad's house?"

"You want me to stay with you?"

"No, it's cool. I have a debt to repay anyway."

"Alright then. Let's hop to it."

*

"Good afternoon Mr. Sterno. Brad texted me and told me to come over. May I
come in?"

"Please do, Nathan. I don't know what's wrong with him, but he has been
crying for a while now."

"Mr. Sterno, and please never tell Brad I told you this, but he is awake
when you go into his room at night. He misses you. He wants you back in his
life. Most importantly, though, he forgave you. A long, long time ago."

"Well, I will have a talk with my son, Nathan. For now, I think he needs a
friend." Mr. Sterno said with tears in his eyes.

I walked upstairs to Brad's room. I could hear him crying halfway down the
hall. I walked a little faster to his room. When I got to the door, it was
locked. I knocked gently. "Brad, it's Nathan. Can you let me in?"

I heard the lock twist, and Brad pulled the door open. He looked awful. His
face was a mess, and there were telltale signs of vomit on his shirt. I
quickly walked into the room, closed the door behind me, and pulled him
into a tight hug. He started sobbing on my shoulder. "Shhh. It's gonna be
okay, Brad. Everything is gonna be okay. Now tell me what happened."

"Matt... He broke up with me."

"Why?"

"Alexandra Daryl. He is dating her."

I pulled out my phone and sent Talan a text message.

Me: Get Mike, and go beat Matt's ass.

Talan: Why?

Me: Act now. I'll explain later.

Talan: Okay. I love you.

Me: I love you, too.

"Who are you texting?" Brad asked.

"Talan."

"So, y'all work everything out?"

"Yes we did. Well, kinda. Anyway, this is about you. Now come on over here
to the bed with me. I think I owe someone a day of holding them on the
bed."

"Thanks, Nathan. I love you, man."

"I love you, too, Brad. Always."

*

"So, explain to me again why we are going to beat up one of our friends."
Mike said while looking at Talan.

"There has got to be a legitimate reason. Nate told me he would explain
later."

"Alright, I guess."

"Yeah. I'm not crazy about it either, but let's get this show on the
road. We're here."

Talan and Mike got out of Nate's car and walked to Matt's front door. What
they saw when he opened it was a complete shock.

"Hey guys..." Matt said meekly as he unwrapped himself from Alexandra's
arms.

Mike looked at Matt with pure disgust on his face. "What the fuck are you
doing?"

"You need to leave. Now." Talan said to Alexandra.

"And who are you to tell me to leave my boyfriend's house?"

"I said leave, dammit!"

"Just go, Alexandra. I'll call you later."

All three boys watched as she walked to her car, got in, and drove off. As
soon as he turned back around, Mike threw his fist, and it connected with
Matt's face. "How could you do that to Brad?"

"I didn't do it on purpose. I fell for her! I didn't mean for it to
happen."

"So, the ring he gave you meant nothing to you?" Talan asked before he
punched him in the stomach.

"I gave it back to him. Please, leave me alone."

Mike was throwing his fist again, but Talan reached up to stop it. "Come
on, Mike. He isn't worth our time."

"Don't expect us to keep quiet about you, Matt. As soon as Brad gives us
the go ahead, everyone at school is going to know about your gay
relationship. I hope Alexandra is understanding." Mike said as he and Talan
walked back to the car.

When they were seated and driving away, Mike looked at
Talan. "Unfuckingbelievable. What an asshole."

"You're tellin' me. Looks like we need to form a little party around Brad
tonight. Eat out?"

"Sure, but don't expect Mitchell. He is still mad at you about Averie and
Nate. Even after I explained it to him."

"Well, you and Mitchell both worship the ground Nate walks on because of
that damn knee thing. I would expect nothing less."

"What can I say? Nate's my hero."

"Mine, too. Mike. Mine, too."

*

"So, we need to get you cleaned up, buddy. We have a little fiesta we are
going to."

"I don't feel like partying, Nate. Let me wallow in my self pity."

"Did you let me wallow?"

"No."

"Then I'm not letting you do it either. Getcher lazy ass in gear,
boy. We're gonna party."

"Alright, but I'll meet y'all there, okay?"

"Umm..."

"Don't worry, Nate. I am not going to do anything stupid. I promise."

"Alright, then. I'll see you later."

"Text me the deets."

"You know it."

As I was walking down the stairs, I passed Mr. Sterno. I stopped him. "Now
is as good a time as ever. He needs all the support he can get right now."

He simply nodded and walked towards Brad's room. I smiled to myself and
continued to walk through the house and out the door. As soon as I opened
it, I was shocked.

"Looks like someone has the makings of a nice shiner there, Mattie boy."

Matt looked at me. "Can you move? I need to go talk to Brad."

"You lost the right to talk to Brad when you told him about Alexandra."

"And who are you to decide that for him?"

"His best friend. I'm gonna protect him from scum he doesn't need in his
life. Even if that scum is a former friend of mine."

"You know, all I have to do is apologize, and he will be on his knees
again." Matt said with a cocky smile.

"Well, then, maybe we will just have to remove your dick. I hear its small
anyway, so it shouldn't take too long."

"And who told you it was small?"

"I saw it for myself, remember? Now listen and listen well. Brad is moving
on. He is going to tell me if you try to talk to him or text him. I hope
for your sake that you don't. I'm not the same Nathan I used to be. My
friends were there for me in my time of need, and I am going to return the
favor. I will end you if you try to get near him before he is ready. Got
it?"

"You don't scare me Nathan. All I gotta do is tell you that your precious
Talan is leaving you, and you hit the floor crying."

I reared back and punched him in his already blackened eye. "Violence is
never the answer, but when it comes to skeeze like you, I make an
exception. You may not have been scared of me before, but if you are smart,
you will be now. Leave, Matt."

Matt walked back to his car, and I felt a someone behind me. I turned
around and saw Brad standing there. "Thanks, Nate."

"No worries, bud. I'll see ya tonight."

*

"Wait, you punched Matt?! Why?!" Stacy asked Mike when he showed up to pick
her up.

"The fuckhead was cheating on Brad," Mike said.

The look on Stacy's face was one Mike didn't expect. "You knew, didn't
you?"

"Ummm, yeah."

Mike pulled his car over. "How long then?"

"I think it started in November."

"November? He gave it up to Brad not that long ago."

"I know."

"Why are you okay with this?"

"My loyalties are to Matt, not Brad. Whatever makes Matt happy, makes me
happy. Brad didn't do that for him. Alexandra does."

"Get out."

"What?"

Through clenched teeth, Mike repeated himself. "Get out."

"Why?"

"Why?! Two reasons Stacy. First, we are heading to Nate's house to round up
everyone to go to Chili's to have a cheer up party for Brad. You don't need
to be there if he isn't your friend. Second, we're through. If you are that
comfortable with people cheating, how do I know you haven't cheated on
me. Get out."

"You can't be serious."

"Dead ass. Now get out."

Stacy opened her door, and stepped out. She leaned back down before she
closed the door. "I can't believe you are picking Brad over me."

Mike gave her a look of disgust. "Just remember, last year, when we thought
you were pregnant, that Brad was the one that bought us the pregnancy
test. Brad was the one that waited with us while we were seeing if it was
positive or negative. Brad was the one that offered us his trust fund if
you were pregnant. Remember that, and then think about where your loyalties
lie. Goodbye, Stacy. Shut the door."

"Wait! Don't do this!"

Mike reached over and got a grip on the door. "I said shut the fuckin
door!" In one motion he pulled the door shut and sped away. Stacy was left
on the side of the road with a shocked expression on her face.

Stacy pulled her phone out and called Matt.

"Hey, Baby."

"Mike just dumped me."

"Good! Now we can actually be together! No more going behind everyone's
back."

"Matt, you know they are never going to accept us."

"I know. Even Brenda won't talk to me. Apparently, Nate has gotten to
everyone. To think I had a crush on him. Fucking faggot."

"Don't call him that, Matt. Nate is like my brother. Besides, you have
taken it up the ass a few times yourself. You have no right to call anyone
a faggot."

"Oh please don't tell me you are defending him."

"No, I'm not. I'm just saying, if anyone can gain us quicker acceptance,
it's Nate."

"Fat chance. Mike loves you. Talan will never allow us to be near any of
them."

"Talan will do whatever he can to make Nate happy. All it will take is some
fast talking from my end."

"Well, I don't see how this is gonna work, but okay."

"Alright, now call and break up with Alexandra."

"Okay, baby. I love you. I'll talk to you later."

"I love you, too."

*

Brad showed up at my house before everyone else, and he brought the picture
of Matt like I asked him too. He was sitting in the living room looking at
the picture with tears running down his face. "Look at him. I should have
known he would never want to be with me."

"Brad, he is an idiot. You are amazing."

"No, Matt is amazing. I'm no one. That's why he dumped me for a damn girl."

"He dumped you for a girl because he is insecure in his sexuality. You need
a real man, Brad. Not some little boy."

"Look at him though! He's gorgeous!"

I had to agree with Brad on that one. Matt was pretty attractive. I could
do without the bleach blonde buzz cut, but ever since he did it for
wrestling his freshmen year, that's the look he was rockin. He probably
stands about an inch taller than me, and has a killer wrestler's body. His
smile, with the help of braces all through middle school, is perfect, and
reaches his dark brown eyes every time he smiles. He was cute, that much
was true, but I had someone in mind that was much more in tune with their
sexuality that I knew would treat Brad like the king he deserved to be
treated like.

"Hey, I'm gonna go make a phone call okay. Whenever you're ready, throw
that picture in the fire. It's therapeutic according to Tristan."

"Someone say my name?" Tristan asked as he walked through the front door
carrying an ungodly amount of shopping bags.

"I did. Tris, you do know that Christmas was yesterday, right? What's with
all the bags?"

"It's a boy!" Tristan screamed.

"What?"

He put all of his bags down and reached inside one. He pulled out a pair of
baby's blue overalls. "It's a boy! I'm gonna have a baby boy!" He smiled
the biggest smile I have ever seen on him.

"Congrats bro!" I said as I walked over and gave him a hug. My dad chose
that moment to walk in with an equal number of shopping bags as
Tristan. "You spoiling your grandchild already?"

"Nope. He was shopping for his baby, and I was shopping for mine. Left hand
is Tristan. Right hand is you."

"Dad, we just got presents from you yesterday for Christmas."

"I wasn't gonna do it, but I decided to go with your brother, and they were
having good sales, so I figured why not."

"Well, thank you daddy. While y'all are both here, I figure its time I told
you guys a little news of my own."

"Oh no. What is it?"

"Well, there is gonna be another new baby in the family."

Tristan looked at me and rolled his eyes. "Yeah, like you got someone
pregnant."

"No I didn't, but Talan did. I'm going to help him raise the baby. We are
going to be parents."

"Son, this is a big responsibility. You're still in high school."

"So is Talan! He can't do it by himself! I'm going to help him." I was
getting defensive.

"Well, if it's what you want to do son, then I will support you. Tristan,
you don't mind sharing the nursery do you?"

Tristan looked at my dad and then at me. A smile broke out on his
face. "I'm gonna be an uncle and a daddy at the same time. Awesome! Course
I don't mind, daddy."

"You kids, y'all are making me old before my time."

I was about to respond to my dad when the phone rang. I went and picked it
up. "Quincy Residence."

"Hello, Nathanial. Can I speak with your father?"

I handed the phone to my dad. Before he took it, I said, loud enough for it
to be heard over the phone, "It's that bitch you're divorcing." My dad was
about to say something, but I went into the living room, got Brad, and
walked outside. We were greeted by Talan hugging a crying Mike.

"Mike, what's wrong?" Brad asked, trying like always to be the rock of our
group.

"I broke up with Stacy." Mike said through tears.

"What? Why?" I couldn't mask the surprise in my voice.

Mike looked up, locked eyes with Brad, and then withdrew from Talan to hug
Brad. "I'm so sorry about Matt. You deserve so much better than him."

Both Mike and Brad were crying now, and then it happened. Mike leaned back
to look into Brad's eyes. Brad leaned back to look into Mike's eyes. They
both leaned forward, and they started kissing. I don't know what came over
them, but their kissing was extremely urgent, and started getting hot and
heavy.

Brad broke the kiss for a moment, but only so he could lean against
Tristan's truck. He then reached out with his hand and pulled Mike into
him. They started kissing again. Next thing I know, Brad has his legs
wrapped around Mike's waist, and Mike is holding him up against the truck
grinding his hips into him. That's when I felt Talan behind me. He wrapped
his arms around me and started nuzzling my neck. He nibbled on my ear and
then whispered, "That's pretty fucking hot."

Unfortunately, I had to end the show. Mike was undoing Brad's belt, and I
simply refused to let them have sex in my driveway. I cleared my throat,
and they looked at me. "Um, can you not have sex in my driveway?" They
turned their stare from me back to each other, and I watched them blush
deeply. Mike clasped Brad's belt, but instead of putting him down like I
thought he would, he started kissing and grinding into him again.

"Mike! Easy boy!" Talan shouted. I busted out laughing.

I leaned into Talan when I gained control of my laughter. Mike had finally
put Brad down, and they were holding each other with their foreheads
pressed together. I whispered to Talan. "Looks like they both moved on
quickly."

"Well, I probably should have told you a while ago, but Mike was lying when
he said he didn't feel anything when he kissed you."

"He was?"

"Yeah. He said he went rigid. He told me that he loved it, but he knew that
I was your Secret Admirer, so he couldn't ruin it for you. I'll tell you
though, you sexually confuse a bunch of people, bud."

"Is that why he broke up with Stacy?"

"No. He broke up with her because she sided with Matt even after all the
stuff Brad did for her."

"What did Brad do for her?"

"I'll tell you later, just know it is major."

"So, you don't think this is just an experiment thing, do you?"

"Look at them Natty. Mike is looking at Brad the way I look at you. I don't
think its an experiment anymore than you and I are."

"Well, I guess it's a good thing I didn't call Brian, then."

"Brian?"

"Yeah, I was gonna see if I could get Brad set up with him. Looks like that
won't be necessary now."

"I don't know. This looks like it could be serious. I would hate for one of
them to think they are just the other's rebound."

"Well, let's talk to em about it."

"Later. Right now, we need to head out. Brenda and Kelly are already at the
restaurant. I think Brenda invited Patrick. They are sorta talking right
now. You cool with that?"

"Of course. You know I have no beef with Patrick. None at all."

We all loaded into Mike's car, Talan and me in the back, Brad and Mike up
front. I smiled when I saw they were holding hands. I didn't know where
their relationship was going, but I did know that I was gonna support it. I
just had to make sure Stacy was okay. I pulled out my iPhone, and was gonna
check my email, when I saw I had a text from Stacy.

Stacy: Hey, umm is there anyway you could come over here?

Me: Sorry Stace. We are heading to eat with the gang.

Stacy: Yeah. Minus me and Matt. Whatever, Nate.

Me: Hey, if you are gonna get mad at someone, get mad at Matt and
yourself. He caused all this and you sided with him.

Stacy: Did that mean that Mike had to break up with me?

Me: You know how Mike is.

Stacy: Yeah, that's what I wanted to talk about.

Me: Well, I think he is already moving on. I just wanna make sure you're
okay.

Stacy: Moving on? With who?

Me: Not my business to tell.

Stacy: Well, I've moved on as well. I was cheating on him anyway.

Me: WHAT

Stacy: yeah. It was me that Matt is with. Alexandra was just a cover so
Mike wouldn't find out.

Me: Stace...

Stacy: Yeah, so can you like leave and come over here? I wanna talk to you.

Me: I love you, Stacy, but my loyalties lay with Brad even over you. He
comforted me when I needed him.

Stacy: Seriously?

Me: Yeah. Sorry. Bye.

Stacy: Fuck off, Nate!

I nudged Talan, and handed him my phone. He looked over the conversation,
and frowned. "That bitch," he whispered.

"I know."

"Baby, where is the corkscrew?" Talan called from kitchen.

"Drawer next to the sink!" I called back from game room, which Brad and I
had turned into a make shift party room for our New Years Eve party.

"I found it. You want white or red?" Talan asked as he came back into the
room.

"Mmm, white. Red wine makes me horny."

"Red it is." Talan smirked.

Everyone laughed as Talan handed me a glass of red wine. Mike agreed with
me, saying red wine made him horny as well, so Brad handed him a glass as
well. I was surprised by them. They had only been together since the day
after Christmas, but they were quickly falling in love with each other. I
even heard Mike earlier in the day, while talking to me about Brad, say, "I
really lo...like him a lot."

I'll admit I was surprised, but our friends took to their relationship
swimmingly. Kelly inadvertently latched on to them and became their
constant third wheel. Brenda was quickly forming a relationship with
Patrick, and they were making out with Brenda on the pool table and Patrick
standing in front of her when Talan was passing out wine glasses.

I wasn't lying when I told Talan about red wine making me horny. After my
first glass, I was really feeling it. I grabbed Talan's hand and flashed
him my sexiest smile. I quickly, yet subtly, lead him out of the game room
and up to my bedroom. As soon as the door was closed, I was all over him.

"Listen," I said before planting a kiss on his lips, "we can have a little
fun," kiss on his neck, "but I still want my kiss at midnight." I kissed
him on his nose. "Can you do that for me...stud?" I asked as I flicked his
nipple through his shirt. I knew I had him. Even before we became official
I knew how to get what I wanted from him. Even when it came to the sex part
of our relationship, I knew how to get him right where I wanted him.

He grabbed my ass with both hands and picked me up. I wrapped my arms
around his neck and my legs around his waste. "I'm sure I can arrange
that."

Talan walked to my bed and put us both down on it. He started kissing my
neck while he was undoing my pants. I reached for the bottom of his shirt
and pulled it over his head. I glanced at the clock and realized we had
about 5 minutes until midnight. I sat up and pulled my shirt off as he
pulled my pants and underwear down and off in one swift motion. I took that
as my cue to flip us over, and I reached for Talan's pants. When I felt his
stiff cock inside, I flashed him a seductive smile.

"My my mister Ivory. There appears to be something hard in your pants."

"It wants to play with you, baby. Can it come out and play?"

"I think it can." I then pulled his pants down without undoing them. Talan
was going commando. I arched my eyebrow. "Planning on gettin' lucky?"

He flipped us back over, and kissed me. "I was hopin' to start a New Years
tradition all our own." With that said, he started grinding his cock into
me. At first, it was a little unpleasant, but my piece never lets me
down. After a moment or two, my dick became the faucet it is, and I started
leaking copious amounts of precum. It was lubing the way for his
grinding. All the while, his hands were roaming all over my chest.

"You are so fucking beautiful. I don't know how I got so lucky."

I looked at him and smiled. "Right back at ya." I looked back over at the
clock and saw that it read 11:59. "It's almost time for my kiss."

No sooner do those words leave my mouth, we hear the gang downstairs start
a countdown.

"Ten!" His thrusts increase in pace.

"Nine! Eight! Seven!" He puts his hands behind my head.

"Six! Five! Four!" He pulls me up to him.

"Three! Two! One!" His thrusts became too much for me, and as he pulled me
into our very first New Years kiss, I came. I shot up between both of us,
coating our torsos as Talan continued to grind. When the last bit of cum
started to dribble from my dick, I noticed Talan's kissing become more
urgent. I felt his cock spasm, and then he was adding his own cum to the
mix on our chests. Once his orgasm had subsided, he broke the kiss and
leaned his forehead against mine.

"Happy New Year, Tally. I love you."

"I love you, Natty. Happy New Year."

For the next few moments, everything was perfect. I had just gotten a rag
to clean us off with, when we heard the yelling. I looked at Talan, and he
returned my look. We hurriedly cleaned ourselves, and I rushed for the
door. As soon as I opened it, I was able to make out the screams.

"Stop! You're hurting him!" It was Kelly. There was no way that was a good
thing.

Author's Note

Okay guys and gals, let me start by apologizing to y'all. This update took
forever, but the holidays tend to be kinda hectic where I come from. That
and the fact that my other story finally made it on Nifty. I got the amount
of responses I expected to get, so I will be updating it again. Now, in
terms of this story, what did y'all think? Worth the wait, or no? Yes,
Talan and Nate have worked out most of their issues, but there is still one
teenie tiny one that I'm sure most of you over looked. Well, Nate is
neurotic, so it will become a major thing for him. Now, onto the
baby. Sorry if this is a spoiler, but the baby is going to be born. Shame
on the person who said Averie should fall down some stairs. However, after
she gives birth, maybe. Haha.

This chapter sorta centers around two separate issues. Talan and Nate
solving problems is the first one. The swapping of relationship partners
between Brad, Matt, Mike, and Stacy is the other. I know Stacy has been
portrayed as Nate's best female friend, and Matt has been portrayed as
having a crush on him, but things are going to change very quickly. Some
true colors are going to be shown.

How about Don't Ask, Don't Tell being overturned? Can I get a fuck yeah?!
That is awesome! They are over there protecting our country, they shouldn't
have to cower in fear of being discharged for their sexuality being
discovered! Thank you once again to all of our armed forces. You guys and
gals are awesome!

Happy New Year Lots of Love ZK

Uh OH! Shout out time! Haha

My girl Lisa! She is like the coolest mom ever. She is spunky as hell, and
she loves my story, which in turn means I love her. Also, she has taught
her three sons tolerance and respect. She is an awesome woman!

My little buddy from down under, always letting me know how much he loves
my story. He makes me jealous cause I wanna go to Australia! :( Haha. I
really hope you got that alarm fixed.

I need to commend someone. It's never an easy thing to take someone into
your home, but you are doing it with open arms. You know who you are, and I
think you are wonderful for doing it. Now, you and your man don't be too
loud now. The new housemate needs his sleep! ;)

Here's a little survey I wanna check out. Just my way of testing a
THEORY. Haha. How many of you guys think guys, or girls for that matter,
look good with the right style of glasses? I have to say I agree with a
friend who said that, after he called me a nerd, that is. Haha.

Last, but certainly not least, is Gabe. He doesn't like his full name,
Gabriel, but I love it! Anywho, this kid writes the most in depth emails
about each chapter of my story. I look forward to his "reviews" as we have
come to call them. They always make me smile because I know I at least have
one die hard fan. I told him about this update, and he told me he was on
the edge of his seat. Haha. That kid cracks me up.

I love you guys!

Also, please let me know what you think! Everyone's opinions matter to
me. I love hearing from you guys. Good or bad, let me know. My other story
is called Never Forget Me. It's hella different from this one, but give it
a read if you feel like it. It's in the Gay/High School section. Thanks
guys and gals!
