AUTHOR'S NOTE:  I've received a few e-mails over the course of publishing

if Dan sounds a little different from now on, I hope it's for the
better!  lol

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As Lisa walked slowly, one step at a time, in a grandiose manner down the
aisle toward him, Dan stood miserably at the altar awaiting her arrival.
It seemed like she was taking forever to get to the front of the church.
That was OK with Dan.  In fact, she could take all the time in the world
as far as he was concerned!  He was literally shaking with fear!

Lisa looked beautiful, albeit, her stomach was protruding hugely in front
of her!  She looked as if she were ready to deliver their baby at any
moment!  Behind her vail, Dan could see she wore a grim look.  Her
father, who was escorting her down the aisle wore an even grimmer, more
threatening look on his face.  Dan was horrified to see a glint of silver
in his right hand, which was pushed part way into the pocket of his
tuxedo jacket.  Was that a pistol he was carrying???  Looking up at his
future father-in-law's face, Dan saw he was wearing an almost demented
looking smirk.

Out of the corner of his eye, he could see his future mother-in-law
sitting to the right of the aisle.  She was crying softly.  Her tears
didn't seem to be tears of happiness though.

Glancing at his own parents, who were sitting in the front row, to the
left of the aisle, Dan saw that neither of them looked happy either.

Jason, who was standing right next to Dan, suddenly leaned slightly to
his right, pressing his right arm up against Dan's left arm.  Immediately
Dan felt comforted, yet at the same time, even more confused.

How the hell had he gotten himself into such a predicament?  All he
wanted to do was grab Jason's arm and run out of the church with him!  He
wanted the two of them to just keep on running.  Running as far away from
the church, from Jacksonboro, and even from South Carolina, as possible!
He just wanted to take Jason and run all the way to the Pacific Ocean, so
that he was as far away from his messed up life as possible.  Then,
there, in California, he and Jason could get an apartment and jobs, and
live happily ever after.

"Why can't that happen?" Dan thought miserably to himself, as he felt
like tears might begin welling in his eyes.

Suddenly he snapped to.  Lisa and her father were standing in front of
him, and the wedding march was ending.

"Be a man and do the right thing!  Or else!" Lisa's father hissed at Dan,
as he handed Lisa off to him.  His hand was still holding the shiny
silver revolver in his jacket pocket.

Dan suddenly felt like he had to urinate.

The right thing!  That was what he wanted to do!  He wanted to do the
right thing!

"But what is the right thing?" he thought, desperately.  His stomach was
churning, and he felt like he had to vomit now, as well as pee.

Dan knew what the right thing to do for himself, and for Jason, was.  But
that was the opposite of what everyone else thought the right thing was.
Miserably, he let Lisa slip her arm into his, and then turned with her to
face the minister.

The next couple minutes were a blur to Dan.  Besides the minister's
monotone droning, the only sound Dan could hear, and this he heard
clearly, was Jason sniffling, next to him, as he'd begun weeping softly
to himself.

"Noooo...!" Dan thought miserably, as tears welled in his own eyes.

Suddenly, he felt Lisa shaking him.

The minister was just saying, "... take this woman to be your lawfully
wedded wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, until death do
you part, so help you God?"

That was his cue!  It was time to pledge his life to Lisa.  He didn't
want to though.  He suddenly felt faint, as if he was going to collapse.
If he said "yes", everyone but Jason would be happy!  He himself would be
miserable too.  His life would be over.  If he said "no" though, Jason
would be delirious with joy!  He'd be happy himself too.  But, everyone
else would be miserable!  Of course there was the pistol in Lisa's
father's pocket too.

Dan didn't want to make anyone miserable, nor did he want to risk dying
by a bullet.  But if he said "yes", his life would be over anyway!  What
difference would it really make?

"Dan!" he heard, Lisa hiss, as she shook him again.

Staring blindly at the minister, his mind in turmoil, Dan hadn't any idea
what to do.  Then he heard Jason next to him.  All he heard was Jason
saying his name - "Dan!"  Suddenly light began to fill his brain, as if
he was having a revelation!  He knew he had no other choice!

"I can't!" he cried, looking at the minister.

Suddenly, there was a loud bang, and Dan felt a sharp pain in his back!
His eyes opened wide.  Had Lisa's father really shot him?

"Dan!" Jason said sharply, poking him in the shoulderblade.

Dan's mind was a muddled cloud of confusion.

"Wake up!" he heard Jason's voice.

"Huh???" Dan groaned, his eyes fluttering open, then closing quickly
because of the bright early morning sunlight that was shining through his
bedroom window.

"You were having a bad dream!" Jason said.

Dan slitted his eyes and craned his neck to look at Jason, who was in bed
behind him, leaning over him.  Jason's hand was resting on his shoulder,
and he looked concerned.

"You kept moaning 'No!', then you yelled 'I can't!'," Jason said.  "What
were you dreaming about?"

The confusion cleared from Dan's mind then, and he realized it had all
just been a nightmare.  He was unharmed, and it wasn't even his wedding
day yet.  He was still at Sovereignity Hall, in his room, in his own bed,
and Jason was there with him.  A feeling of relief flooded through him.

"So?  What was it you were dreaming about?" Jason asked again.  Then, he
added in an almost hopeful tone, "Were you dreaming about the wedding?"

Dan heard the tone of Jason's voice.  Not wishing to get into a
discussion about his upcoming marriage, he just said, "I'm sorry I
disturbed ya.  I don't remember what I was dreamin'!"

"Oh!  Well... try not to remember it, since it was a bad one.  It's
over.  Just rest a bit.  It's early yet," Jason said, settling back down
on his side behind Dan.

"'K," Dan said, closing his eyes, hoping Jason would stop talking about
his dream.

Jason slung his arm over Dan's side, and nestled up behind him.  Dan felt
warm, and a little sweaty, so he didn't hug him tightly.  The two lay
quietly together for a while then.

                     *                  *                  *

About 15 or 20 minutes later, Dan realized that as they'd been laying
snuggled together, Jason's penis had hardened.  It was lying pressed in
the crease between his ass cheeks.  He smiled as he felt his own member
begin to inflate.

"Yer boned man!" Dan drawled softly, smiling to himself.  Jason could
hear the happier, relaxed, and slightly horny tone in his voice.

"And I suppose you're not?" Jason asked, smiling both at the fact that
Dan was apparently feeling better, and that he was apparently horny too!

"Course!" Dan said, rolling over to face Jason.  As he did, his hardon
slapped Jason's hip, before sliding down between their pelvises to rest
next to Jason's.

"So, you all right now?" Jason asked, grinding his hips forward slightly,
so their penises rubbed against each other's bodies.

"Yeah," Dan said, "'twas just a bad dream."

"Still don't remember what it was about?" Jason asked.

"Nope," Dan said, averting his eyes from Jason's.

Jason knew then that Dan was lying, but he decided to let it go.  If Dan
was going to share it with him, he would have right away.  It bothered
him a little though.  They'd never kept things from each other, and
they'd always told each other even their deepest must highly guarded
secrets.  Whatever was bothering Dan, he obviously didn't want Jason to
know about it.  Jason could think of only one thing Dan didn't want to
discuss with him.  His wedding to Lisa!  The tiniest smile crept onto
Jason's face, as a spark of hope ignited within him that maybe Dan was
starting to have second thoughts.  He debated with himself then whether
or not to tell Dan exactly how he felt, and beg him to change his mind.

As if sensing what Jason was thinking, Dan quickly wrapped his arms
around Jason and began grinding his pelvis against Jason, sending ripples
of pleasure rocketing through Jason's body, and all thoughts except for
carnal pleasures out of his mind.

                    *                    *                       *

"So ya wanta be on top 'er on th' bottom?" Dan asked, grinning.

"Hmmmm..." Jason grinned.  "Choices, Choices."

He too began grinding his pelvis against Dan's then.

"Well?" Dan asked a couple seconds later, when Jason hadn't answered yet.

"Why don't we start out in a '69', and see where it leads to?" Jason
suggested.

Grinning wider, Dan quickly threw the covers off them and spun around, so
his feet were at the head of the bed, and his head was at the bottom.
Then he scootched toward the head of the bed a little, until Jason's
gorgeous, throbbing, dick, which had a droplet of moisture on its piss
slit, was right in front of his face.  His own hardon was right in front
of Jason's mouth too.

Grinning, he wasted no time, grabbing Jason's cock and licking the precum
from the tip of it.

"Mmmm...." he moaned happily, as he suddenly swallowed as much of Jason's
cock as he could.

"Unnnnnn...." Jason groaned as Dan sucked his manhood into his mouth.
Quickly he reached for Dan's dick and pointed it at his mouth.

"OHhhhh!!!" Dan moaned as Jason sucked 2/3 of his shaft into his hot, wet
mouth, and began slowly and sensually sucking up and down on it.

The only sounds in the room for the next few minutes then were the young
men's moans and groans of pleasure, intemingled with soft sucking sounds.

As he sucked on Dan's penis, Jason let his hands travel to Dan's butt.
Knowingly, Dan lifted his leg a little, and was rewarded by Jason sliding
his hand between his cheeks.

"MMmmmmm..." he moaned happily, as Jason began fingering his hole.

Quickly Dan reached for Jason's ass and reciprocated, causing groans of
pleasure from him as well.

The two lay slowly pleasuring each other with their mouths and fingers
for a few minutes.  Each knew the other so well, that they could tell
when the other was beginning to feel too aroused, and slowed down the
action, so as to not cause the other to climax too soon.  This allowed
them to continue making love to each other for several minutes, before
they were both so horny they couldn't hold back any longer!

Finally, Dan spit out Jason's dick and smiled and said, "I want ya
inside me now Jase!"

"'K," Jason replied, smiling back at him.

Quickly Dan reached for a tube of lube, as he rolled over onto his
stomach.  He handed Jason the lubricant, then reached for a pillow, which
he slid under his pelvis.  This held his hips up in the air.  He spread
his legs apart and drew his knees upward, effectively opening himself for
Jason's entry.

Smiling, Jason crawled into position behing Dan.  Instead of squirting
lubricant into his hand and slamming his dick up Dan's ass, Jason leaned
in and began eating Dan's hole out!

"Awwww  Fuck!" Dan cried with pleasure, as Jason's tongue began molesting
his most private body area.

"Mmmmmmmm...." Dan groaned, as Jason pressed with the tip of his tongue,
forcing it through his anus for a second.

Jason continued rimming Dan, occasionally pushing his tongue through
Dan's sphincter every few seconds, causing Dan to moan with pleasure.

"Oh God!" Dan cried out, as Jason, who was hornier than ever and couldn't
wait to push his dick into Dan, suddenly began tongue-fucking him.

"Oohhhh!!!" Dan moaned, pushing his hips up and back a bit more, as Jason
shoved his tongue in and out of him.

Jason gave Dan a thorough washing with his tongue, both inside and
outside of his hole for the next couple minutes.

Finally, Dan cried, "For fuck's sake Jase gimme that dick o' yer's fore I
blow my load!"

Chuckling, Jason pulled back from Dan's ass, opened the tube of lubricant
and squirted some into his hand.  He set the tube aside, then slathered
the lube in his hand all over his throbbing cock, which was oozing copius
amounts of precum already.

As soon as he was well greased, Jason climbed up on his knees, pointed
the tip of his dick at Dan's hole, then leaned forward, over Dan,
pressing his hard shaft through Dan's sphincter!

"AAwwww!!!" Dan groaned, as Jason continued pushing himself deep into
him.

Jason didn't stop pushing, until his pelvis was smashed up against Dan's
buttocks, and his cock was pressed as far up inside Dan's rectum as it
could go.

"Oh yeah!" Dan moaned, smiling happily.  The head of Jason's cock felt
like it was tickling the bottom of his stomach, it was buried so deep
inside him.  It was just the way he liked it!  He was never happier than
when Jason was so "connected" to him, like he was just then!

Slowly, Jason began withdrawing from Dan's rectum then.  When he was
almost all the way back out of him, he reversed, and plunged slowly
forward again, all the way back up inside Dan, causing waves of pleasure
to ripple through Dan's being.  Slowly then Jason began to sensually
long-dick his lover!

The two young men were both so worked up by then, that it only took about
a minute of Jason's slowly pumping in and out of Dan, before both of them
began to feel their orgasms starting to form.

"Oh Jase!  Won't be long now!" Dan murmured, a moment later.  His hips
had begun fucking up and down slightly, so that the underside of his dick
slid back and forth just a bit on the pillow beneath him.

"Me too!" Jason gasped, as his groin muscles clenched in anticipation,
then relaxed.  He could tell it would only be a few more seconds before
he was in heaven!

A couple seconds later, unable to restrain himself any longer, Jason
suddenly began to pound his cock in and out of Dan's ass.

"Oh Fuck!" Dan gasped, as he felt his climax beginning to rise much more
swiftly.

Jason leaned forward, so that he was laying over Dan's back, and began
slamming in and out of Dan even more desperately.  As he buried his face
beside Dan's neck, he felt Dan's body tensing up, and Dan's musky aroma
filled his nostrils, exciting him even more.

"Aaawwwwwmmmmmm!!!!!" Dan groaned suddenly, tensing up completely.

Jason felt Dan's sphincter contract violently around his shaft, then
relax a moment later, as Dan blew his load all over the pillow beneath
him.

The arrival of Dan's orgasm pushed Jason over the edge, and he too
groaned, and flooded Dan's intestines with his semen.  After emptying his
first load inside Dan, Jason's cock felt like it had been re-lubricated
as it plunged in and out of Dan.

"Ohhhhmmmmm!!!" Dan groaned, his anal ring squeezing Jason again.

"Mmmmmmm!!!!" Jason moaned, firing another volley of cum deep inside
Dan's bowels.

Jason continued fucking Dan, and the two trembled and shook as they each
continued spasming for the next few seconds, until both their orgasms
finally subsided.

"Fuck that was nice!" Dan drawled, as his body relaxed and he allowed
himself to lay fully in his ejaculate-soaked pillow.

"Oh yeah!" Jason agreed, sinking his cock fully back up inside Dan, and
settling down on his stomach, on Dan's back.

"Messy too!" Dan said, smiling, as he felt all the wetness beneath him.

"Inside and out!" Jason grinned, leaning forward, as Dan turned his head
to look up at him.

Jason leaned down then and kissed Dan on the lips.  As awkard a position
as he was in, Dan craned his neck further still and kissed Jason in
return.

The two relaxed then, and lay in companionable silence for a couple
minutes, each enjoying the other's and their own warmth, generated by
their sexual union.

"So, ya wanta get showered?" Dan asked, finally.

"OK," Jason said, although he'd just as soon have stayed in the position
he was in for the rest of his life.

Taking Dan's cue, Jason slowly pushed himself up off Dan.  As he did
this, his now softened dick popped out of Dan's anus, which remained open
slightly, as it was now used to the feeling of being filled with
something.

Although it was warm, the fresh air that hit Jason's wet, sticky penis,
felt cold.  This quickly completed shrinking it back down to its usual
flacid size.

"Whew!  What a mess!" Dan drawled, as he got up off the pillow.  It was
indeed fully saturated with Dan's sematic fluid.

"You sure do cum a lot!" Jason chuckled.

"So d'you!" Dan said, making a face and reaching back to his asshole, as
he felt wetness beginning to leak from it.

"Think I need the toilet!" he exclaimed, turning quickly and darting into
the bathroom.

Jason followed him, through the door, which he'd left open.

"Eewww!" Dan said, grimmacing slightly, as he sat on the toilet.

Jason heard a couple of drips in the water in the toilet bowl.
Apparently some of his cum was leaking back out of Dan's rectum.

Suddenly Dan, tensed up and began straining a little.  His face turned
pink.

"Aww!" he grunted a moment later, and Jason heard a loud splash.

He smiled as Dan smiled and said, "Tha's better!"

A moment later, Dan wiped himself, then flushed as he got up.  Jason
stepped over to the toilet and peed into the swirling water.  A large
piece of Dan's shit, and the dirty toilet paper was just going down the
pipe.  Jason noticed a couple of bright red streaks on the toilet paper.

"Shit!  Was I too rough?" he asked.

"Naw," Dan drawled.

"But the toilet paper looked bloody," Jason said, concerned.

"I'm fine Jase!  Let's shower now," Dan said, stepping into the shower
and turning on the water.

"Well, OK!" Jason agreed, as he massaged the last drops of urine from his
dick, then shook it a few times.

He flushed again, then jumped into the shower with Dan.

"Gonna be colder in a minute when the toilet stops running!" Dan said,
poised to crank the hot water up a bit more.

Jason grinned.

A moment later, the toilet stopped running, and the water did feel
cooler.  Dan opened the hot water faucet a bit more and it felt warmer
again.

"So how about we wash each other, and see what happens?" Dan asked,
straightening up and grinning at Jason.

"Cool!" Jason said.

The two each picked up a bar of soap then and began lathering each other
up.  Within a few minutes, both young men were spotlessly clean, and both
were sporting rigid hardons.

"How 'bout ya let me eat yer ass out and fuck you this time?" Dan asked,
smiling hopefully.

"I'd love it!" Jason said, smiling.

With that, Dan turned Jason so he was facing the shower wall, then
squatted, pried Jason's ass cheeks apart and moved in to rim him.

Dan's pleasuring of Jason's ass, and their eventual copulation lasted
longer than the hot water did, so as they stood spasming with pleasure,
Jason spraying the wall with his love juice, and Dan filling Jason's
bowels with his, they suddenly felt a cool mist wisping over them.  They
quickly finished up, then cleaned up and rinsed off with cold water.

Feeling completely refreshed and relaxed, they dried off, then went and
got dressed, and finally headed downstairs for breakfast.

                 *                     *                    *

After breakfast, Jason reminded Dan that he was going to show him his
great uncle Louis's diary.

"That's right!  C'mon!" Dan said, getting up.

Jason got up and followed Dan into the living room.  There, from a book
shelf, Dan lifted down a couple of framed tin-types, and a couple of
books that looked like diaries.

"These was them!" Dan said, showing Jason the pictures.

"Damn!" Jason said, gazing down at the image of Jason's great uncle.  "I
see the resemblence!  He was good looking - just like you!"

Dan grinned.  "I know.  But I'm a much nicer guy than he was!"

"That's true!" Jason agreed, smiling.  "Ezekiel wasn't bad looking
either!"

"No, he wasn't!" Dan agreed.  He leaned toward Jason, and lowered his
voice.  Then in a hushed whisper he said, "I sure wouldn't of minded
messin' with him!"

Jason snickered and said, "me either!"

He handed the pictures back to Dan, then asked if he could open the
diaries.

"Sure!  Jus' be careful - they're a bit brittle!" Dan warned.

Jason opened one of the books and read an entry.

"Holy shit!  This is so cool!" he said.  "Have you read all of them?"

"Yeah," Dan said.  "They are interesting.  In fact, I've got them
transcribed and typed out in 'Word'.  I can send ya a copy if'n ya want
one."

"Cool!  I'd love a copy!" Jason said.

"I'll send it ta ya then!" Dan said.  "Right now though, I hate to pull
ya away from them, but we gotta go!"

"Oh!" Jason said, a little disappointed.  He handed the books back to Dan
and said, "OK, where are we off to now?"

"We're meetin' Roy for lunch, then we gotta go try on our tuxes!" Dan
said.

"Oh," Jason said, hoping he didn't sound too disappointed that the
wedding was still apparently on, even after all the great sex they'd had
earlier, and Dan's bad dream.

                       *                    *                    *

About an hour later, Dan and Jason walked into a diner in town.

"Over here!" Jason heard a man call.  Looking in that direction, he saw a
man their age, with dark hair hailing them.  As they walked over to the
man, Jason was surprised by just how much Roy looked like his little
brother Johnny.

As Dan introduced the two, Jason got the distinct feeling Roy didn't like
him.

He was right.  Roy didn't like him.  Roy didn't like him at all.  He
wouldn't have liked anyone Dan felt or seemed close to!  On top of that,
Roy couldn't get the image of Jason laying naked on his back up in the
hayloft, in "their spot" with Dan, who was also naked, straddling him,
fucking himself up and down on Jason's long, fat, hard, lubricated cock!
In his imagination, Roy kept seeing over and over again, the look of pure
ecstasy on Dan's face, as he blew his load all over Jason, who then
screwed up his face, as he too apparently climaxed, flooding Dan's butt
with his juice.

It was all Roy could do to be civil to Jason at that point.  Then, on top
of it, Dan chose to sit next to Jason, after Jason had slid into the seat
opposite Roy!

The three had lunch, during which Roy monopolized the conversation,
engaging Dan in discussions of local happenings, effectively leaving
Jason out of the visit, so that Jason remained relatively quiet the
entire time.  Knowing that Dan and Roy had been best friends and
fuck-buddies while they grew up, Jason expected that Roy was jealous of
him.  He didn't care really, as he himself felt a twinge of jealousy over
Roy's relationship with Dan too, but he was surprised at how immature Roy
was acting.

After they ate, the three went to get their tuxes.  Together the three
changed into the tuxes in a room in the back of the shop, so the tailor
could check that they fit properly.  Jason noticed that while he was
standing in just his boxers that Roy was giving him the once over.  He
gave Roy more than a casual glance himself though too.  There was nothing
wrong with Roy physically.  In fact, he was actually a pretty good
looking guy.

"Too bad he's such an asshole though!" Jason thought to himself.

A moment later, as he was pulling his tux pants on, he noticed that Roy
had developed a tent in the front of his boxers.  As he smirked to
himself, about it, Roy realized Jason had noticed his protrudence, and
turned red in the face.  Quickly, with a sour look on his face, he
finished dressing, then stepped out front to be checked by the tailor.

As the tailor squatted to check the length of Roy's pants, his face can
right to the level of Roy's crotch, which was still bulging quite a bit.
The tailor's eye brows inched up slightly, as he looked sideways at Roy's
package.  Looking down to see what the tailor was doing, Roy saw that
he'd noticed his hardon.  Roy's face flushed deeper red, but at the same
time, his penis involuntarily flexed, causing his bulge to expand for a
moment, then retract.  The tailor smiled slightly.  A minute later, when
he stood up again, Roy saw that his crotch was bulging too.

"Dirty old bastard!" Roy thought, looking away from him, as his face
burned hotter.

Seeing the nasty look on Roy's face, the tailor's dick immediately
wilted, and he quickly finished checking Roy's jacket.

"You're all set sir," he told Roy, who wordlessy turned and retreated
into the changing room.

As he entered the room, Dan was just finishing pulling his jacket on.

"Damn! He sure looks fine!" Roy thought, as Dan grinned and stepped
around him, to go out front and be checked.

Roy looked at Jason then, who was just pulling his jacket on too.

"I need to ask you a favor," Roy said quietly to Jason, after Dan was
gone.

Jason was surprised that Roy was talking to him at all.  Apparently it
showed on his face, because Roy quickly said, "it's for Dan, not me!"

"What do you need?" Jason asked, looking soberly at Roy.

"I need you to keep him busy the rest of the afternoon.  Then, at about
4:30, bring him to my house.  I'm throwing a bachelor party there for
him.  It's a surprise!  So don't let on.  All the men coming to the
wedding will be there." Roy said.

"You're invited too of course," Roy added, as an afterthought.

"I see.  Thank you," Jason said.

"So you can handle it?" Roy asked.

"I think so," Jason replied testily, looking him directly in the eyes.

The two looked at one another with mutual dislike for a moment.

"Is there a problem?" Dan asked, as he stepped back into the changing
room, and saw them staring each other down.

"No," Jason said, breaking his eyes from Roy's.

"Not at all," Roy said, turning to look at him.

"I sure do wish y'all liked each other a little more!" Dan said.  His
face wore a look of obvious disappointment.

"We like each other enough!" Roy said, smiling, and turning so he stood
next to Jason.  He laid his arm across Jason's shoulders then and hugged
him roughly.

"Yeah, we're fine!" Jason said, for Dan's sake.  He wrapped his arm
around Roy's shoulder and hugged him roughly in return.

"Yeah right!" Dan said, smiling wryly.  "Neither of ya could ever lie
that well!"

"Least not to me!" he added quickly, as his glance settled on Roy.
"Tailor needs ya out front Jase!"

"'K," Jason said.  He quickly pulled away from Roy, and stepped through
the curtain into the front of the shop.  He was happy to get away from
Roy.

Jason couldn't hear if Dan or Roy said anything further to each other
while he was being checked out, but they were wordlessly changing back
into their street clothes when he returned.

"So, the next time ya decide to come spyin' on us when we're up in the
loft," Dan said, suddenly stopping and staring at Roy.  "At least have
the decency ta make yer presence known - Other than by leavin' a few
globs o' yer cum in the hay on the floor!"

Jason's eyes widened, when he realized that Roy must've been spying on
them the previous night while they were having their roll in the hay!  He
wondered if Dan realized it all along, or if Roy had said something to
him that caused him to realize.

Glancing at Roy, he saw that he looked extremely guilty, and that he'd
turned scarlet.

"I don' know what yer talkin' about!" Roy snapped.

"Bullshit!  You could never lie to me!" Dan said, looking at Roy, his
eyes smoldering.  "I know ya were there!  I know what ya saw us donin'!
And, I know what you were doin'!"

Initially Roy's face took on a look of anger, but as Dan stared at him,
Jason saw the anger dissipate, to be replaced by a hurt look.  Dan
must've seen this too, because his hardened face, softened.

"Just don't do it again," Dan said.

"I gotta go now!" Roy said.  His face reddened more when he realized
Jason was watching him as well.

"We'll see ya later then," Dan said.

Roy didn't reply.  He just gave a short nod, then without a look at
Jason, he quickly exited the changing room, and dashed out of the shop
altogether.

"What was that all about?" Jason asked Dan.

"Remember that noise we heard last night.  Well, afterwards I noticed
some globs o' cum on the floor.  The only person who ever goes up in that
loft 'sides me is Roy.  And from the way he's actin', I can tell he was
watchin'.  I think he's a bit jealous of ya." Dan said.

"Oh?  I hadn't noticed!" Jason replied sarcastically.

"Asshole!" Dan muttered, smiling sheepishly at Jason.

Jason grinned.

"I'm sorry fer the way Roy's treatin' ya.  It ain't like him.  Usually
he's pretty pleasant and nice ta be with!" Dan said.

"I expect you're right.  He's jealous of me.  He's used to having you to
himself, and the two of you being best friends.  Now here I am, and if he
really was watching us, that must've hurt his feelings," Jason said.

"I 'spect yer right," Dan said.  "I'll make nice with him later.
Meanwhile... c'mon!  What'a'ya wanta do the rest of today?"

Jason smiled.

"How about showing me around town a little?" he asked.

"Sure thing!" Dan said, smiling.

                 *                 *                     *

The two completed their transactions for their tuxes, took them, and
left.  Dan drove Jason all over town then, showing him all of the
interesting things Jacksonboro had to offer - which wasn't a lot, but
Jason enjoyed it just the same.  He didn't care where they were, as long
as he and Dan were alone together!  As the afternoon wore on, Jason
wished time would slow up, so they didn't have to go to Dan's party,
where they wouldn't get to spend much time together.

Dan enjoyed his time alone with Jason too.  It reminded him of all the
time they'd spent together at school.  Just spending the afternoon
quietly with Jason did a lot for Dan.  It calmed his nerves.

As Dan watched Jason being a tourist and enjoying the few points of
interest in Jacksonboro, it gave him some new perspective too.  He
suddenly realized something he hadn't realized before.

This was the first time in his life when he'd had both Jason and Lisa in
his life and available to him at the same time.  Previously this had
never been the case, so he'd just enjoyed spending time with whichever
one he was with at the time.  Now... he had a choice.  Lisa had called
his cell phone and asked if he and Jason had wanted to get together with
her and Michelle.  He'd thought about it a minute, and suddenly realized
something - something he'd never truly thought about as much before.  He
realized suddenly, that rather than spending time with the girl he was
about to marry - the mother of his unborn child - that he much preferred
to spend his time alone with just Jason!  As a result, he'd made up an
excuse so that they didn't have to meet Lisa and michelle, and he could
be alone with Jason!

As he shuttled Jason around town showing him the sites, he began
thinking.  He began thinking about how he felt when he was with Lisa, and
how he felt when he was with Jason.  He began comparing his two seperate
lifestyles.

With Lisa, everything always had to be her way.  Half the time he really
didn't enjoy doing the things she wanted to do.  And, much of the time,
she wasn't happy with things as they were!  He realized then that he
spent most of his time with Lisa, trying to please her, and not enjoying
himself.

With Jason, things were much more laid back.  Either could suggest
something to do, and both were always happy doing it.  He never had to
try to please Jason, as Jason was always happy with him as he was!

Of course, there was the sexual aspect of things as well.  With Jason,
sex was the most awesome experience he could ever imagine having!  With
Lisa, he managed to get it up, and fuck her.  He even managed to have an
orgasm.  But, sex with her was stilted, clumsy, and more of a pain in the
ass than it was worth.  It was nowhere near as wonderful as it was with
Jason, and quite honestly, he preferred masturbation to sex with Lisa!

"What the fuck am I marryin' her for?" Dan thought to himself.

He knew Jason loved him and wanted him to spend his life with him.  He
also knew he loved Jason in return.  In his mind's eye, he suddenly
pictured what it might be like, living with Jason, instead of marrying
Lisa.  A smile spread on his face as he thought about this.

As he fantasized about life with Jason, things changed suddenly.  The
phone would ring and it was Lisa complaining about how he did nothing for
their baby.  Or his parents showed up a the door, and he had to hide
Jason, so they didn't know he was gay!  The smile he'd been wearing
disappeared, only to be replaced with a look of despair.

"You OK?" Jason asked, suddenly breaking into his thoughts.

"Huh?" Dan asked, coming to.

Jason was looking at him curiously.

"Oh!  Yeah!  Just wedding jitters I guess!" Dan said, forcing a smile to
his lips.

"Oh!" Jason said, stung by the reference to Dan's upcoming union with
Lisa.

"C'mon!" Dan said.  "I want to show ya something."

He'd dragged Jason off then, to see something else, as he tried to push
all his confused thoughts from his brain.

                 *                    *                     *

About 4:00 Dan suggested they head back to Sovereignity Hall.  It was a
little too early for them to get to Maisson Grande, so Jason had to
stall.  Suddenly he spied a little old church.

"Can we stop and look at that church first?" Jason asked.

Dan gave him a funny look.

"We can, but why?" he asked.

"I don't know.  I'm just interested.  It'll only take a minute," Jason
said.

"Well, OK, jus' so long as ya understand it's not a white folk's church!"
Dan said.  "I mean, we can go there, but it's usually just blacks who
attend there."

"That's OK!" Jason said.

"Alright then," Dan said, and he pulled into the parking lot next to it.

Dan watched Jason curiously, as the two of them walked into the church,
and Jason made a great show of being curious about everything in it.

"Ya sure are acting strange Jase!" Dan said, grinning at him, as Jason
sat in a pew, carefully studying a prayer book he'd picked up out of the
rack on the back of the pew in front of him.

Jason grinned, and surreptitiously glanced at his watch.  It was 4:20.

"I guess we can go now," he said.

"Cool!" Dan said.  "Ya ready to head back to Sovereignity Hall now then?
Or should we go see the white folk's church?  It's only a couple blocks
away."

Jason chuckled and said, "I guess I've seen enough churches.  We can head
back to your place, but... first, can we stop by Roy's place?" Jason
asked.

"What?" Dan asked, caught completely off guard.  "Why?"

"I want to talk to him," Jason said.  "I want to try and smooth things
over between us, before your wedding!"

Inside Jason cringed at the realization he'd mentioned Dan's wedding, as
if it was really going to happen.

"Fuck!  I sure hope that's not an omen that it really is going to
happen!" he thought to himself.  He still hoped to try later on to talk
Dan into seeing things his way, and not going through with the wedding.

"That's so nice of you!" Dan said, smiling at Jason.  "I guess maybe we
can stop over there ta talk with him.  Let's pick up a six pack and the
three of us can share it and discuss thangs!"

"OK," Jason said, as Dan suddenly swerved right, turning into a parking
lot of a small shopping center that had a couple stores in it.

A few minutes later, they were back in the car with a couple of six
packs, heading for Maisson Grande.

                 *                      *                       *

"Hmmm.... Looks like Roy's parents are having a do," Dan said, as they
pulled into the lane that lead from the road to the Gentry's house, and
saw it was lined with cars.  "A big one at that!  Maybe we should come
back tomorrow!"

"No!" Jason cried.

Dan gave him a funny look.

"Um..." Jason flailed for the right words.  "If Roy's parents are having
a party, maybe Roy is free anyway.  I'd really like to try and talk
things out with him!"

Dan looked at Jason a moment, then said, "Fine!  Let's give it a try.
Can't hurt nuthin'!"

Dan drove on then.  A minute later, he pulled into the last empty spot
between two large oak trees, near the house.

"House" was an understatement, Jason thought to himself.  Just like Dan,
Roy's family lived in a mansion as well.  Looking at the place, again
gave Jason the feeling of being poor!

"Seems awful quiet for a party!" Dan muttered, getting out of the car.
"Maybe they're eatin'!  We should probably go!"

"Come on!" Jason said, grabbing his elbow and pulling him toward the
house.

Reluctantly Dan followed.  Just then, Roy stepped out on the porch.

"Hey!" he called.

"Hey yerself!  Y'all havin' a party?" Dan called back.

"Yeah, but come on in anyways," Roy said, smiling.  "We can go sit on the
side veranda."

Dan and Jason followed Roy into the house then.  They stepped through the
hallway, and turned into a room to the side.

"Surprise!!!!" the room erupted with yelling.

"What the -?" Dan cried, staring incredulously.

"It's your bachelor party Dufus!" Roy said, grinning at him.

"Did you know about this?" Dan cried, whirling about to face Jason.

"Let's just say I'm not as religious as you might've been thinking a
while ago!" he replied, grinning.

"Asshole!" Dan muttered, smiling widely.  "And yer a bigger asshole!" he
said, spinning to grin at Roy too.

Suddenly, Dan was swallowed into the crowd of men who'd begun converging
on him from around the room.

Jason's smile faded, as he watched Dan disappear.  Roy looked at Jason,
and smiled a little triumphantly.

Unnoticed at the back end of the hallway, Roy's brother Johnny stood
watching the two.

"He's gonna be a little busy for a while now!" Roy said.  "Some of these
guys are his oldest and best friends!"

Roy emphasized the word "best" so that Jason would be certain to
understand his meaning.

"What an asshole!" Johnny thought to himself.

"That's very nice!" Jason said, smiling sweetly.  "Tell me, does the
'Best' man have any particular duties at this shindig?"

Jason too emphasized the word "best".

"Eww... Touche'!" Johnny thought, smiling to himself.

"I've got everything under control," Roy said.  "If you'll excuse me now,
I have guests to attend to!"

Without waiting for Jason's reply, he spun on his heel and headed into
the crowded living room.

"Asshole!" Jason growled, glaring after him.

"Exactly!" Johnny said, stepping up behind him, and causing him to Jump.

Johnny snickered and said, "Sorry.  Didn't mean to startle you!"

"It's OK," Jason said, turning to see who'd walked up behind him.  "Oh!
It's you!"

Recalling the only other time they'd met, Johnny blushed slightly, and
smiled a little uncertainly.

"Hi," he said, a little shyly.  "Um... don't know if Dan told you, but
I'm 'Asshole's' brother!"

Jason snorted back a laugh.

"Yeah, Dan told me," he said, blushing.  "Um sorry for calling him a name
like that."

"Oh!  That's OK!  I call him that, and worse - regularly!" Johnny smiled
sheepishly.  "He really is a big asshole!  He didn't have to say that to
you just now.  I apologize for him!"

Jason smiled and said, "You don't have to apologize for him!  Nothing he
says or does is your fault!  Let him handle his own apologies!  However,
thank you for the thought!"

Johnny's shy smile widened a little.

"So you feeling all better now?" Jason asked.

Immediately, Johnny's face went bright red.

"Hey!  I'm sorry!  I'm not trying to embarrass you," Jason said, feeling
bad for the boy.  "I seriously just wondered if you were OK now."

Trying to avoid eye contact with Jason, Johnny glanced up at him a couple
times and said, "I'm better now."

"OK," Jason said, patting him on the shoulder.  "For what it's worth, I'm
sorry things went the way they did.  I felt bad for you!"

"Umm... thanks.. I guess," Johnny said, smiling slightly, and glancing up
at Jason, then back at the floor.

"So... you and Roy don't get along too well?" Jason asked, hoping a
change in the conversation, would ease the boy's embarrassment.

"You can say that again.  We're like oil and water!" Johnny said, looking
up finally.

Jason smiled and said, "Well, you just keep being the nice guy your are,
and try not to turn out too much like him!"

Johnny grinned then and said, "You don't have to worry about that!"

Jason smiled too.

"Wanta go get some pork?" Johnny asked.  "We got a huge pig roasting out
back.  It should be done.  I was just going to see!"

"Sure," Jason said, smiling.  "That sounds good!"

Johnny grinned and turned back down the hallway.  Jason followed behind
him.

From the middle of the living room, Roy had been watching his little
brother talking with Jason.

"What in hell are they talkin' about?" he had thought.

Now, as he watched Jason following Johnny away, his face hardened and his
eyes narrowed, as he thought jealously to himself, "So he's gonna try to
get back at me by gettin' friendly with my brother now!"

                  *                       *                       *
A few feet away, Dan noticed the sour look on Roy's face, and followed
his eyes out of the room, where he too saw Jason and Johnny smiling at
each other, and then disappearing down the hallway.

Dan was happy that Jason had taken an interest in Johnny, and that Johnny
seemed to like him.  Given the circumstances of their first meeting at
the overseers house, he had been afraid Johnny would still be upset.
Although he'd been the one to cause Johnny the pain and embarrassment
he'd gone through, Dan had felt bad for him.  He'd only meant to tease
the boys a little, but things had really gone too far.  He was glad that
Johnny didn't seem upset with Jason.  Maybe he'd even be able to forgive
him too!

Dan was sad that Roy seemed to dislike Jason so much though.  He had
wanted the two of them to like each other!  He'd always thought of Roy as
a brother, and loved him as such.  And Jason was the person he loved most
on the planet!  He'd very much wanted the two people he loved most to at
least get along!

Roy's and Jason's obvious dislike of one another just added to all the
other feelings of frustration, confusion, and general turmoil Dan was
feeling.  More than ever he felt like he was ripped in half.  Half of him
knew getting married to Lisa, and being his baby's father, and
maintaining his "straight" image was the right thing to do, and he so
wanted to live that ideal life style.  On the other hand, if he did, he
knew he'd be miserable!  He loved Lisa, but not even half as much as he
loved Jason!  In his heart, he knew he wouldn't be happy unless he was
with Jason!

As the minutes ticked by, Dan became more and more confused about what to
do!  He realized he had to make a decision.  One that would affect the
rest of his life, and the rest of other people's lives too.  He'd never
felt so much in control of his own and other people's destinies before.
It was something he'd always thought he'd like to feel.  Now that he felt
it - he hated it!  He hated that no matter what he did - someone was
going to be hurt!  Worse... he hadn't a clue which path to take!

Dan needed to talk to someone - badly.  Ordinarily he'd have chosen
Jason, but, since Jason was a large part of the problem, he couldn't talk
to him about it.

Roy was the only other person he could talk to who he thought could
understand his problem, and would care.  The fact that Roy was alienated
against Jason really didn't help though.  How could he talk to Roy about
this, if he didn't even like Jason?  He needed an objective opinion.

               *                    *                     *

While Dan was pretending to be listening to a conversation, but in
reality was thinking about all of this, Roy had slipped away, and
followed Johnny and Jason out of the house, to the back patio, where the
caterers had set up their spit, and were roasting a huge pig.

Roy hung back and watched for a few minutes, as Johnny and Jason each
made themselves a pork sandwich.  They were talking and laughing quietly
together.  Roy couldn't hear what they were talking about though.

When Jason stepped over to one of the kegs and poured himself a beer,
Johnny followed him, and poured one for himself.

"Hey!" Roy heard Jason say.  "Are you allowed?"

Johnny had lied, and said he was.

Roy's eyes smoldered as Jason told his little brother that he was going
to keep an eye on him and make sure he didn't drink too much just the
same.

"What gives this asshole the right to be brotherly with MY little
brother?" he thought.

As he watched the two enjoying their sandwiches, beer, and just being
together, Roy got angrier.

Suddenly he burst out from around the side of the house where he'd been
hiding, peering around the corner.

"What in hell do you think you're doing?" he hollered nastily, glaring at
Jason.

"Huh?" Jason asked, his hand that was holding his sandwich stopping in
mid air.

"What are you doing giving him beer?" Roy snarled, indicating Johnny.

"He said he was allowed!" Jason said, shocked.

"Well he's NOT!" Roy snapped.

"Fuck off Roy!  You know Daddy let's me have some!" Johnny cried,
incredulously.

"You get your ass in the house now!" Roy growled, stepping over to Johnny
and snatching the cup of beer away from him.

Johnny glared defiantly at him.

"GO ON!" Roy yelled, raising his hand as if to strike him.

"Don't you dare!" Jason yelled, leaping up then, and grabbing Roy's arm.

"Don't you tell me how to discipline MY little brother!" Roy hissed,
ripping his arm from Jason's grasp, and glaring at him again.

"You touch him, and you'll deal with me!" Jason snarled.  "I don't care
if you are his brother!"

Johnny's eyes were big, as he stared up at the two men who were standing
only inches apart then, confronting each other.

"Stop it!" he cried, leaping up, and pushing them apart.  "Knock it off
Roy!  You know Daddy let's me have a beer now and then!  And it's not
Jason's fault I have it!  He tried to stop me!  I told him I was
allowed.  Besides - he told me he was gonna watch out for me and make
sure I didn't have a lot!  So you leave him alone!"

Roy turned his glare back to his brother, who was standing looking
petulantly at him.  For a minute he didn't say anything, then he snapped,
"Fine!  You get your ass back inside anyway!"

They stared at each other hatefully for another minute, then Johnny
snatched up his sandwich, spun on his heel, and stomped off toward the
house.

"You didn't have to do that!" Jason said.  "I know it had nothing to do
with him having a beer, and everything to do with the fact he was sitting
and talking with me!  Your brother's a nice kid.  You keep treating him
like you do, and he won't be anymore.  He has nothing to do with your
problem with me, so leave him out of it!"

"Just how is it you know him anyway?" Roy blurted.

Jason was confused momentarily, and just stood blinking at Roy, who was
glaring at him yet.

"Well?  How do you know my brother?" Roy blurted.

"I-I don't!  We just met!" Jason lied.  There was no way he was going to
say a word about how he'd actually met Johnny.

The two stood staring angrily at each other a moment, until suddenly a
group of men burst out of the house and headed toward them.

"Well stay away from him!" Roy snarled.  He turned then and strode off to
meet the group of men who'd just come outside.  As he approached them, he
smiled jovially.

As Jason looked back at the house, he saw Johnny in a window on the
second floor, looking out at him.  Roy wasn't looking, so Jason smiled,
nodded and gave him a little wave.  Johnny smiled and nodded back at him,
then disappeared.

Jason picked up his sandwich and finished it in one gulp, then headed
back to the house, hoping to find someone, anyone but Roy, to visit with.

A few minutes later, Johnny slipped out the back door and ran down to the
barn.

                 *                  *                   *

"Aha!  He did leave it here!" Johnny said to himself, as felt the corner
of a magazine.

Johnny was in the hayloft, on his knees, with his hand stretched under a
pile of hay, feeling around.  After he'd gone to his room, he'd decided
to jack off, but he couldn't find his favorite porn magazine.  Panicking,
because it was a GAY porn magazine, which he definitely didn't want
anyone to find, he'd wracked his brain wondering what could've happened
to it.  Suddenly, he remembered that Richie had stopped by earlier while
he was out with Roy getting stuff for the party.  The maid had said he'd
gone up to Johnny's room to get something he'd left there, then he'd
left.

"Asshole came out here and jacked off without me!" Johnny said, grinning
to himself, pulling the magazine out.

As one of the horses in one of the stalls below snuffled, and moved
about, Johnny stuck his hand back under the pile of hay, this time closer
to the wall.  A moment later, smiling, he pulled a bottle of hand lotion
out.

"Wish Richie could've come to the party!  It'd have been a lot more fun
than this!" he muttered to himself.

Johnny sat down then and nestled into his favorite spot in the hay loft -
with his back against the back wall, between a couple heaps of hay.
Smiling to himself, he opened the magazine and gazed at the pictures of
good looking young guys pleasuring themselves, and each other.
Instantly, his penis, which had already been in a semi-erect state, began
to harden fully.  Automatically, as he fantasized over being in each
scene, having sex with the guys, Johnny's hand moved to his crotch, and
he began kneading his genitals, through his blue jeans.  Within seconds,
his cock was hard.  Because he hadn't adjusted it before he sat down, so
that it was fully extended, pointing off to his left, it was bent forward
in front of his balls, in a very uncomfortable condition, considering its
hardness.

Quickly Johnny dropped the magazine and unbuckled his belt buckle.  Then,
he opened his jeans, and pushed them, and his boxers back, exposing his
genitals.  He hooked his pinky finger under his dick and pulled up.  The
head of it, which was still stuck under the edge of his jeans popped
out.  Suddenly released from its bent position, it flopped freely
backward, and laid on its upper side.  The base of it was nestled in
Johnny's dark pubic bush, and the tip of it was pointing up at his face.
Sighing slightly, with relief, Johnny then unbuttoned his shirt and
opened it, exposing his flat, smooth belly, so that when he blew his
load, it wouldn't mess up his shirt.  He picked up the magazine again
then, and started looking at it.  As he did, his right hand moved back to
his crotch.  He wrapped his hand around his penis and slowly began
stroking it.

Afer a few minutes, Johnny was feeling very horny.  He propped the
magazine up in the hay, open to his favorite picture of a young
dark-haired boy, who looked rather like himself.  The boy in the picture
was sprawled on his belly on a bed, with his ass sticking up in the air,
and his legs spread apart.  Behind him, and between his legs, was an
older good-looking dark-haired boy, giving it to him up the ass.  Johnny
loved this picture, because he fantasized that he was the boy in it, who
was being fucked so passionately by the older boy.

Highly aroused, Johnny quickly opened the hand lotion and poured some
into his hand.  Leaning back in the hay, he began slathering the lotion
all over his dick.

A minute later, Johnny's hand was flying up and down his slick dick, as
he gazed at the picture of the boy taking it up the ass.

"Mmmmm...." he moaned happily, smiling slightly, as he grasped his
scrotum  with his left hand and began gently kneading his testicles too.

                *                  *                   *

Back at the party, Roy had been watching Dan.  Outwardly, Dan appeared to
be having a good time, but if you watched him carefully, you could see he
was distracted, as if his mind was on other things.  And every so often,
a sad or depressed look would cross his face.  Eventually, as Roy watched
him, he saw Dan slip away and wander off alone in the direction of the
barn.  Wondering what was going on, he followed him.

                *                  *                   *

Johnny was really getting into beating off up in the loft, when a couple
of the horses in the stalls below him began snorting and moving about
more than usual.  Suddenly, one of them whinnied.  Johnny stopped
masturbating for a moment.  Sitting like a statue, he listened to see
what had disturbed the horses.

His eyes grew large as he heard a soft male voice say, "It's OK Stormy!"

Someone was in the barn with him, and whoever it was, knew his horses
too!

Johnny remained motionless, his right hand still wrapped around his slick
rod, which was beginning to deflate, and his left still grasping his
scrotum.

He heard a couple of boot steps at the front door of the barn then.

"What're you doin' down here by yerself?" Johnny heard his brother say
suddenly.

"Just takin' a break," he heard the voice of the person he'd originally
heard say.  This time, he spoke more loudly, and Johnny realized it was
Dan.

"You don't seem very happy," Roy said.  "What's the matter?"

There was a pregnant silence, as if Dan was thinking.  Finally, he said,
"I'm fine!  By the way, thanks for going to all this trouble - it's an
awesome party!"

"No problem!" Roy said.  "Anything for my best friend!"

Johnny rolled his eyes, and silently mimicked his older brother -
"Anything for my best friend!"  He could imagine the somewhat arrogant
smile on Roy's face.

"Come on!  Leave already!" Johnny thought then, as his dick shrank down
further - almost to its fully flacid state.  He began massaging it a
little, hoping to keep it at least semi-erect, until Roy and Dan left, so
that he could resume masturbating.

"I wish you and Jason could get along better," Dan said, more softly,
causing Johnny's hand to freeze, as he strained to listen.

"He doesn't seem to like me too much," Roy said, testily.

"I believe it's more the other way around!" Dan said, pointedly.  "I've
watched the two of y'all an' I can see, that Jason's trying.  I don't see
you tryin' though.  In fact, it's like ya done made up yer mind ya don't
like him, and that's all there is to it!"

Up in the hay loft, Johnny smirked a little to himself.  Dan had pegged
the situation correctly from what he could tell.

It was quiet for a moment, except that one of the horses began moving
about in his stall, and knocked into a water bucket.

Finally, Roy spoke again.  His voice sounded a little strange - almost a
little strained, as if he was feeling stressed.

"Well, I get the impression he's not 100% behind you and Lisa gettin'
married!" he said.

There was another moment of silence, then Dan said, "Well... in reality,
I'm not so sure I am either anymore!  That's why I come down here... so's
I could think things through!"

"What the hell are you talking about?" Roy burst out, sounding almost
angry.

"Roy," Dan said.  "I told ya back when I was at school, and me and Jase
were roomies, that we'd gotten close.  Close like you an' me!  Closer in
fact!"

Johnny's eyebrows shot up.  He could just imagine the hurt look on Roy's
face.

"Well, things happened, and me and him... well... we fell in love!" Dan
continued.

Up in the loft, Johnny's hand stopped moving on his penis, and his jaw
dropped open.

"In LOVE?" Roy cried in disgust.  "What the hell are you sayin' Dan?"

"What I'm sayin' is, me and Jason became a couple!  We were partners for
four years!  And... I'm still deeply in love with him!" Dan said,
sounding anguished.

"OH MY GOD!" Johnny mouthed, incredulously.

"Well what about Lisa?" Roy cried, sounding anguished too.

"I love her too," Dan said.  "But... I don't love her like I love Jason.
Hell... I even love you more'n I love her!"

There was silence for a moment.  If Johnny could've seen his brother's
face, he'd have seen a mixture of emotions crossing it that would've
surprised him.

"So... " Roy croaked and trailed off.

"Oh relax!" Dan said.  "You'll always be my brother, an' I'll always love
you!  I didn't mean fer it to sound like you weren't real special to me -
ya are!  You were always my best friend and a brother to me!  We've
always shared EVERYTHING together!  You'll always be real special to me
Roy!"

"Wow!" Johnny thought to himself. "I knew they were close but..."

"Well... thanks for that," Roy said, sounding somewhat mollified.
"But... what the hell is all this now?  Are you saying you don't want to
marry Lisa?"

"That's exactly what I'm sayin'!" Dan said.

Johnny's eyebrows were up again.

"And???" Roy prodded.

"And... I want to be with Jason for the rest of our lives," Dan said,
sounding miserable.

Johnny's jaw, which had closed, dropped open again.

"But if you do that, everyone'll find out yer gay!" Roy exploded,
sounding a little desperate.

Johnny still looked completely surprised, but suddenly, he realized that
Roy already knew Dan was gay!  He didn't sound surprised by any of this.
Nor had he berated Dan for being gay!  Roy had always made fun of gays!
Why wasn't he surprised, angry, and upset that his best friend was gay?
When Dan had said earlier "close like you and me" when he described his
relationship with Jason to Roy, had he meant MORE than just best
friends????  Was it possible that Roy and Dan were closer than he
thought?  Could it be possible they were close like he and Richie
were???  Johnny's eyes got huge at the thought.

Down on the main floor of the barn, Dan said, "I know!  But I can't help
how I feel!"

"And what about Lisa?  And the baby?" Roy continued.

"I know!" Dan said, sounding more upset.

"And your parents!  They'd die if they found out!" Roy said, hauntingly.

"I know!" Dan whined.  His voice sounded like he was going to start
crying.

"You have to marry Lisa!" Roy said.  "You promised her!  You're a
southerner!  We don't break our promises!  You're also going to be the
father of her baby!  You have fatherly duties to uphold!"

"I know!" Dan said, despairingly.

"You have to marry her to keep our... I mean your secret covered up!  No
one can find out you're gay!  If they do, your parents'll disown you!
You'll lose everything!" Roy said, firmly.

"I know!" Dan said, still sounding miserable.  "I know all that Roy!
But, don't I deserve to live my life the way that makes me happiest?  Am
I supposed to be miserable all my life, just because I don't want anyone
to find out I'm a fag?  And what about sex?  I mean I can fuck Lisa, but
it sure ain't like when I'm with Jason!"

There was a pause, then Roy said somewhat softly, and calmly, as if
trying to control his voice, "Well... you've still got me!  We can still
get together for that!"

"HOLY SHIT!" Johnny almost burst out, his eyes and mouth open wider than
ever.

"I know that Roy, and thank ya.  I spect if'n I do marry Lisa, that'd be
real nice," Dan said, trying to sound appreciative.

"Damn right it would!" Roy said.  "And, I'd miss it if we didn't anymore
too!"

"I know," Dan said with a slight chuckle then.

"I know you'll miss Jason, but you really have to think about what's best
for yourself!" Roy said.  "And that's maintaining the lifestyle you were
meant to lead - marrying Lisa, having a family, and being a Southern
gentleman!  And to keep your sanity, you and me can still have fun
together!"

"I 'spose," Dan sighed, sounding somewhat resigned.

"You know I'm right!" Roy said.

"I guess," Dan said.

"So you're gonna marry Lisa then?" Roy said.

"I 'spose," Dan sighed sadly again.

"OK, we best get back up to the party, 'fore everyone's lookin' for us!"
Roy said.  "But if ya need to talk more... you call me - ya hear?"

"OK," Dan said.

"OK, go on.  Get now.  I'll be up directly.  Midnight dumped his water
bucket an' I gotta refill it," Roy said.

"OK," Dan said.

Johnny heard some boot steps then, as Dan must've walked out of the barn.

"Why'd that damn ass Yankee have to come down here and muck around?" Roy
muttered, as he went to get the hose.  "Dan needs to get married, and
that asshole needs to get his ass back up to Vermont and leave him
alone!  Dan doesn't need anyone else but me!  I'll see that he gets sexed
properly!"

If Roy muttered anything else, Johnny couldn't hear it, because he'd
turned on the water to fill Midnight's water bucket.  When he was
finished, he silently coiled up the house on its peg, then stalked off
out of the barn, heading back up to the house.

"Holy Shit!" Johnny whispered to himself, as he lay back in the hay and
thought about all he'd just overheard.  "So Roy, Dan, and Jason are all
gay!  And it sounds like Roy and Jason both want Dan, but Dan want's
Jason, but he's supposed to be with Lisa!  Damn!  This is better than any
soap opera!"

He thought a few minutes more about it, deciding in the end that it was a
pretty sad situation.

"Why can't people live the way they want to?" he wondered.  "Dan and
Jason belong together.  It's too bad for Lisa though, and the baby.
Roy's just an asshole.  He's good looking though.  He could find some
other asshole to fuck!"

As he thought about Roy being gay, an image of him and Dan naked together
in Roy's bedroom flashed through his mind.  In his mind's eye, he could
picture the two of them lying in a '69' together on Roy's bed, sucking
each other off.

"Wonder how far they went?" Johnny wondered.  "Wonder if they fucked
too?  Wonder which one's the bottom????"

As he thought about all this, he subconsciously had begun massaging his
genitals again.  After a minute, he looked down and smiled, as he
realized his cock was hard again.

"Guess I better finish up, before someone else comes along!" he thought.

With that, he opened the hand lotion bottle and poured a little more in
his hand.  Then, he slathered that on his dick, and began stroking up and
down it.  His left hand returned to gently kneading his testicles.  As he
slowly worked on himself, his mind wandered.  He thought about the three
guys, and how unhappy all of them were.  He felt sorriest for Jason, who,
once he left wouldn't have Dan anymore.  Dan would have Lisa, and Roy!
As he thought about Jason, he was surprised to find himself beginning to
wonder what Jason might look like naked.  He was extremely good looking
with his clothes on.

"I bet he's got a big one!" Johnny muttered, grinning to himself, as
images of a naked Jason, with a huge dick passed through his mind.

                     *                        *                        *

As Johnny lay in the hay up in the loft, slowly masturbating, the
stripper Roy had hired arrived.  All the guys quickly gathered around and
watched, as she went into her routine.

Dan sat in front of course and had the best view.  He did his best to
appear as though he was enjoying it.  He certainly didn't get a hardon
over her performance, like a few of the other guys did though.  A few of
the other guys, he noticed, actually had very prominent tents and bulges
in their crotches!

When the stripper had finished stripping down to her g-string and spike
heels, she announced it was up to Dan to take her down to the barn and
finish undressing her.   Then, they could have some fun!

The guys all hooted and hollered and whistled.  Dan most certainly didn't
want to go with her though!  Suddenly a thought crossed his mind.

"Guys!" Dan said.  "As much as I might like to, I can't!  I can't do that
to Lisa!  I promised myself to just her!  And... a Southerner always
keeps his word!"

He and Roy exchanged glances, as the guys all groaned and carried on.
Roy smirked, and Dan gave him an "I'll get you" look.  Suddenly he had an
idea.

"I believe though that Roy here isn't promised to anyone!" Dan said,
grinning widely.

Jason saw the momentary look of fear cross Roy's face, and laughed.  Roy
recovered quickly though, and pretended to like the idea, so that
everyone saw him as he wanted to be seen - as a young, straight, horny
stud.

"Well, there's the barn!" Dan said, pointing.  "I know there's a couple a
empty stalls!"

Roy gave Dan an exasperated glance, but then flashed his wide smile, and
pretended it was a good idea.

"Then, let's go Sugar!" the stripper, who was obviously more than just a
stripper said, smiling sweetly.

She reached down and cupped Roy's genitals and squeezed them gently.  A
confused look crossed her face for a moment, but, she quickly smiled
fakely to cover it up.  She let go of Roy's crotch, and grabbed his
elbow.

"C'mon Honey... Let's go see if I can't get you excited!" she said.

Roy blushed bright red, as everyone roared.  He was furious that she'd
let on that he wasn't hard.  He couldn't do anything about it though.
All he could do to save face is follow her quickly, as she made her way
to the barn.

                  *                   *                   *

"Oh God Damn it!" Johnny thought desperately to himself.

His orgasm was building, and he knew that within the next several
seconds, he was going to blow his wad!  Suddenly though, someone else was
entering the barn!  It was his brother again.  Only this time, he had a
girl with him!

"What the fuck?" Johnny thought, as his hand stopped moving up and down
his rod for the second time that evening, so he could listen.

"So, where's this empty stall your friend mentioned Sweet Pea?" the girl
asked.

"Over here," Roy said, sounding both angry and nervous.  "And don't call
me Sweet Pea!"

"Oh!  Alright then, what would you prefer I call you?" the girl asked,
sounding a little taken aback.

"Mr. Gentry will do," Roy said, sounding a little sarcastic.

"Very well sir," The girl said, sounding subdued.

"What the fuck?" Johnny thought again.  "Mr. Gentry????"

Roy'd never told anyone to call him that before that Johnny could
remember.  Who was this girl?

Just then, Johnny heard the stall door directly below him opening.
Grinning, he recalled a knot hole in the loft's floor board that would
give him a good view of the inside of that particular stall.  As
carefully as he could, so he didn't make any noise, he rolled onto his
side, and pushed some hay aside, uncovering the hole.  Then, he put his
eye to the hole.

"HOLY SHIT!" he almost gasped out loud!  Roy and the girl were in the
stall, and the girl was completely naked, except for a G-string and her
shoes!  She was pretty good looking too.

"So let's see what we have in here, shall we Mr. Gentry?" the girl said,
and she reached for Roy's belt buckle.

Roy flinched.

The girl stopped, and looked at him in surprise.  Roy turned red in the
face

"Is this your first time Sweetie?" she asked, sweetly.  "Cause if it is,
I promise, you'll like everything I do!"

"NO! It's NOT the first time I've had sex!" Roy hissed.

"Well, then, let me just get down to it!" she said, in a slightly more
business-like tone.

With that, she unbuckled Roy's belt, unbuttoned the top of his jeans, and
unzipped his fly.  Johnny grinned as he watched through the knot hole.
Curiously, Roy looked embarrassed and upset, which made Johnny smile
wider.  Considering the amount of unpleasantness Roy always dished out,
Johnny was always happy to see him on the receiving end of some himself.

Suddenly, the girl gave Roy's pants and boxers a yank, and pulled them
down over his hips, shoving them all the way down to his ankles.

"Oh my!" she said, gazing at Roy's flacid penis.  "Don't you fret!  We'll
have this taken care of directly!"

She dropped to her knees then and leaned forward.  Expertly she picked up
Roy's limp dick with her lips and sucked the whole thing into her mouth.

"Shit!" Johnny whispered to himself, as he felt his own, now limp member
beginning to come back to life.

"Jesus!" he thought, as he watched through the hole as the girl went to
work on his brother.

She sucked on him for a good half minute, then spit his penis out.  It
was still just as flacid as when she'd started sucking on it.

Johnny was shocked that his brother hadn't at least gotten a semi from
all the girl's work, because his own cock was rock hard, just watching -
and he was gay too!  He almost burst out laughing when he saw it hanging
limply, while Roy's face darkened.

The girl looked up at Roy and said, "What's the matter Honey?  Aren't you
feeling well?"

"I'm feeling fine!" he snapped.  "It must be you!"

"Well...," the girl said, looking puzzled.  "This has never happened to
me before!  Let me try some more!"

With that, she leaned forward and sucked Roy's cock back into her mouth.
As she sucked on him, she cupped his balls and began fondling them.  With
a desperate look on his face, Roy hiked up his shirt and began tweaking
his nipples.

Again, Johnny almost burst out laughing.  Obviously, he wasn't able to
get it up with a girl.

"Roy's a blade!" Johnny thought, grinning to himself.

After almost a minute had gone by, the girl spit out Roy's still flacid
dick and looked up at him again.

"Are you gay?" she asked, accusatively.

Roy turned beet red and in a loud, harsh whisper burst out, "NO I AM
NOT!"

"Well, if you are, it's OK.  Just tell me.  I mean, we'll never get
anywhere if you are," she said.

Suddenly, it looked to Johnny like Roy had tears in his eyes.  He was
surprised then by a feeling of sympathy for Roy.  He suddenly realized
how desperate Roy was to remain in the closet.

Suddenly Roy reached down and pulled his wallet from the pocket of his
jeans, which were laying in a heap about his ankles.  He withdrew a
couple of hundred dollar bills and dropped them in front of the girl.
Then, he put his wallet back in his pants pocket.

"This," he snarled angrily as he squatted and picked up the money and
held it in the girl's face, "is for your silence about this!  Nobody is
to EVER hear about this!  Do you understand me?  I have high blood
pressure, which I take pills for, and I can't always get an erection!  I
don't want anyone to know I have high blood pressure or take drugs for
it!  Do you understand?"

"Certainly, sir," the girl said.  She sounded a little condescending
Johnny thought.

"If you ever tell anyone, you'll regret it!" Roy hissed.

"I understand sir," the girl said, sounding a bit concerned now.

"Now, in case anyone's listening outside, or comes down here to try and
watch, we're gonna put on a great act for them!  Get down on your back!"
Roy said.

The girl looked surprised, but did as Roy said.

Leaving his pants down around his ankles, Roy climbed on top of the girl
and began pretending he was fucking her, by humping his hips up and down,
and pressing his pelvis into her's.

"Now make sounds like you're having sex.  Good sex!" Roy commanded.

The girl began loudly moaning and gasping.  Roy did too.

Up in the loft, Johnny lost it and began laughing.  He covered his mouth
and closed his eyes, trying his best to calm down.

By the time Johnny was able to stop laughing, and put his eye back to the
knot hole in the loft's floor, Roy and the girl must've been embarking on
what they thought sounded like a real, mutual orgasm.  It sounded and
looked rediculous to Johnny.  Again he began laughing.

As he watched yet, he had to admit though that Roy had a really hot ass!
He actually wouldn't have minded getting his hands on it once!

A few seconds later, after what must've been the world's longest and best
"orgasm" ever, Roy stopped "fucking" the girl, and climbed off her.
Quickly he pulled up his boxers and jeans and stuffed his still limp dick
inside, zipped up, buttoned up, and buckled up.

Still red in the face, and breathing heavily from his fake fucking, he
grabbed the girl's arm and they left the stall.

"Remember!  Not a word to anyone!" Roy hissed.

A moment later they were gone.

Johnny laughed out loud, when he was sure they were far enough away.

"What an asshole!" he muttered to himself, as he rolled back onto his
back and pulled himself back up into the lounging position he'd been in
when he was jacking off.

Again, Johnny needed to re-lubricate his penis.  He did this quickly, and
was soon stroking away on his tool, and fondling his nuts again, as he
pictured Roy's ass moving up and down as he fake-fucked the girl.
                    *                     *                       *

As Roy and the stripper/whore approached the men up at the house, one of
Roy's friends looked at him and said, "We don't need to ask you if she
was good!  Can tell just by the look on your face!"

"And... ya were a bit loud!" another friend added.

Everyone began laughing.  They all stopped a moment later though, when
the girl said good-bye to Johnny.  She stepped up to him, and kissed him
on the lips.  He wrapped his arms around her and kissed her back,
roughly.

"Wheeeewwww!!!" a few of the guys cat-called.

Smiling Roy broke the kiss.

"See ya soon Tiger!" the girl said loudly.  "You're the best man I've
ever been with!"

She smiled and licked her lips sensually, and winked coyly at him.  Roy
blushed with embarrassment, and smiled.

"Wheewwww!!!" the cheer among the other guys, as well as a few dicks on
some of them, went up again.

As the girl picked up her clothes and slipped them back on, then walked
off down the driveway, Dan looked curiously at Roy.  Jason did too.  When
he noticed Dan looking at him, Roy looked guilty.  He glared at Jason
though, when he noticed him looking curiously at him as well.

                     *                      *                     *

Back in the hay loft, Johnny heard the hooting and cheering.  He was
curious about what was going on, but didn't want to stop again, to see
what that was all about.

He kept on stroking up and down his stiff rod, as the feeling of bliss
rose within him.

"Fuck!" Johnny gasped, softly, and he panted a little, as he felt his
orgasm building.

Breathing heavily, Johnny prayed nobody else would walk into the barn and
ruin it for him again.  He wasn't sure he'd be able to stop again!  He
began beating off faster then.

A few seconds later, Johnny's back arched up and his entire body tensed.
He felt his sinuses open fully and smelled the barn's smells more
intensely, then after taking a deep breath he held it.  He stopped
pumping his cock for a second, and the pressure within his groin
exploded, sending a river of cum rocketing out of his dick.

"OHhhhhh!!!" he gasped as he let out his breath, just as his cum was
landing on his chest and belly in a long, thick streak of milky
whiteness.

"Awwwwwww!!!" he gasped a moment later, shooting another load of jism all
over himself.

"MMmmmmm!!!" he moaned, ejaculating a third time.

Johnny continued pumping his prick, until his orgasmic spasms ended.

When it was over, he relaxed back into the hay, smiling to himself, and
blew the air out of his lungs.

"Fuck that was nice!" he whispered to himself, as he lay motionless,
resting from his exertion, and basking in the good feelings he felt.

A few minutes later, he used a handful of hay to wipe the cum off his
torso, then he stood up, and closed his pants up.  He hid his magazine
down the front of his boxers, then quickly he climbed down the ladder,
and scooted out of the barn.

He didn't see the mortified look cross Roy's face when he saw his little
brother exiting the barn, with hay sticking out of his hair.

                   *                      *                         *

Eventually, the party ended, and people began to leave.  After everyone
was gone, Dan and Jason finally left and drove back down the road to
Sovereignity Hall.

As it was late when they got home, they went right upstairs to their
bedrooms.  As usual, they each locked themselves inside their own rooms,
then stripped, and met with an embrace in the bathroom that connected
their two rooms.

"Like your party?" Jason asked.

"I'd of preferred to be here alone with you, making love!" Dan replied,
smiling.

"No reason we can't just get a late start on that," Jason said, smiling.

Dan grinned and tugged on Jason's arm, pulling him toward his bedroom.
smiling, Jason followed him.  Both of them were rock hard, and their
erections bobbed in front of them as they walked.

"How about I show ya some good ole Suthin' hospitality?" Dan asked.

He didn't wait for Jason to answer.  Instead, he pushed Jason down on his
back on the bed, then sank to his knees between Jason's feet.  He grasped
Jason's penis, and pointed it at his mouth, then went down on him,
sucking as much of his boner into his mouth as he could.

"Ohhhhhh!!!!" Jason gasped with joy, as Dan began pleasuring him.

Dan grasped the base of Jason's cock, wrapping his index and middle
fingers around it and began pumping it, as he sucked up and down on it.
With his left hand, he delicately fondled Jason's testicles as well.

"OOoohhmmm!!" Jason groaned, as Dan began to pick up speed.  He already
felt his orgasm building.  This was going to be an awful quick blow job
if Dan kept going like he was!

Dan didn't slow down or change his style though.

Within less than a minute, Jason was squirming and grunting, trying to
hold off his orgasm as long as he could.  Dan's expert mouth and handwork
was working against him though.  He could feel his orgasm building with
each stroke of Dan's mouth.

"Fuck!" Jason cried, as Dan stopped fondling his balls, and suddenly
inserted a finger between his asscheeks and began massaging his asshole.

Dan's finger touching his hole greatly intesified the pleasure Jason was
feeling.

"ooohhnn!!!" he whimpered, on the brink of cumming.

Dan kept going.

"AAAAAWWWwwwww!!!!" Jason cried out suddenly, as his whole body tensed
up, and he blasted a huge amount of cum into Dan's mouth.

Jason panted for a couple seconds between spasms.

"Mmmmmmm!!!!" he groaned, as he came again, again flooding Dan's mouth
with his seed.

"Ohhhffuck!" he moaned a moment later, filling Dan's mouth again.

Dan just kept swallowing and working on Jason, savoring his flavor each
time he ejaculated.

Eventually, after he'd blown about 5 loads, and oozed another couple
toward the end, Jason's orgasm ended.

"Holy fuck!  Enough already!" he gasped, reaching down and pushing Dan
off him.

Dan chuckled, as Jason flopped back down on the bed panting.

"So it was good for ya I guess?" he asked.

"Ya have ta ask?" Jason gasped.

Dan grinned.  Then, spying a final drop of semen oozing from Jason's piss
slit, he leaned forward again, and licked it off.

"Ohhh!" Jason gasped, surprised to feel Dan pick up and lick his penis
again.

"Good ta the last drop!" Dan grinned, as he let the flavor of Jason's
essence permeate his mouth.

Jason grinned, and said, "Give me a minute, then I wanta taste your's
too!"

Dan grinned and crawled up on the bed with him.  The two lay next to each
other then, Dan hot with anticipation, and Jason warm with happiness.

             *                       *                       *

A couple minutes later, Jason said, "OK, your turn.  Scootch up to the
pillows."

Grinning, Dan crawled backward up to the head of the bed and laid his
head on a pillow.

As he spread his legs apart, Jason moved between them, and went down on
him.  He gave Dan the same treatment Dan had given him, and a couple
minutes later, he too was rewarded with mouthful after mouthful of Dan's
love juice!

when Dan was finished cumming, Jason crawled up next to him.  Dan rolled
onto his side facing away from Jason, then snuggled backward into Jason's
embrace, and the two lay spooned together, enjoying their "togetherness".

As they lay quietly together, Jason decided it was finally time to talk
to Dan about their future.

"Dan, there's something I've been wanting to talk to you about since I
got here," Jason said.

A shiver of fear, and sense of despair swept through Dan's body.  He knew
Jason was going to ask him not to marry Lisa, and to stay with him
instead.

Having thought about things all evening, and after his talk with Roy,
although he was still confused about his feelings, he was pretty sure he
needed to marry Lisa no matter what.  Therefore this wasn't a
conversation he wanted to have with Jason.

"Dan?" Jason said.

Feeling tremendously guilty, but not wanting to have this conversation
and end up hurting Jason anymore, Dan closed his eyes, and pretended to
be asleep.

"You awake?" Jason whispered.

Dan felt like bursting into tears then.  How could he hurt Jason like he
was?  But talking about it would only make it worse.  So, he remained
silent.

"Damn!" Jason whispered to himself.

He wrapped his arm more snuggly around Dan, and closed his eyes.  A few
minutes later, he was asleep.  Dan however remained awake for some time
after that, feeling miserable, debating with himself if he was doing the
right thing or not...
