Brothers, Friends, & Lovers Chapter 3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The next couple years passed quickly. The boys all grew. By the time their high school graduation arrived, both Jason and Paul were very handsome eighteen year olds. Luke and Brian had both developed into handsome fourteen year olds, as well, and both were almost as tall as Jason and Paul. Jason and Paul were still having sex with each other, as often as their schedules permitted. Luke and Brian were able to get together almost every day after school for an hour or two of fun as well. None of the boys ever felt sexually deprived, and in fact were actually having more sex than their straight friends were, not that they ever mentioned this to their straight friends. After graduation, Jason and Paul both got jobs for the summer. They managed their schedules so they'd be able to see each other as often as possible. Their last summer together was a relatively happy one, although it was often overshadowed by constant reminders that soon they would each be going off to college, at different schools, clear across the country from each other. Both of them were trying to avoid talking about what this would do to 'them'. * * * By mid-August, Jason and Paul only had one more week together. The following week, they both had to leave for school. They knew they couldn't avoid the subject much longer, and each evening when they got together after work, after they had sex, they were both very quiet, thinking about how things were changing, each wondering who would be the first to start the inevitable conversation. It was Paul who finally broached the subject. Jason had just fucked him, and they'd shared a great climax together. They were lying naked next to each other on Paul's bed, recovering from their workout. "We both have to leave in a couple days. What are we going to do about 'us'?" Paul finally asked Jason. Jason looked at Paul sadly, and replied, "I don't know. What do you think we should do?" "I don't know either," Paul said. They both thought for a while. Finally Jason said to Paul, "Do you love me?" "Of course I do! What kind of a question is that?" Paul responded, looking surprised. "How come we never kiss then?" Jason said. "What? We have sex together for God's sake," Paul said. "Exactly!" Jason said. "We have sex together, but we've never kissed each other, and when we sleep together, we only sleep next to each other. We never sleep in each other's arms. It doesn't bother me or anything, and don't get me wrong, I love you Paul. You know I do. It's just... and I hope this doesn't hurt you, I don't mean it to... but... I don't think I love you romantically. Even though we have sex all the time, great sex in fact, I don't think the love I feel for you is the kind of love that two boyfriends feel for one another. Not that I'd really know what that feels like, since I've never been with anyone buy you. But, I feel almost like we share a more 'brotherly' love with one another instead." Paul thought for a minute, then smiled a little and said, "You might be right. Even though I want to have sex with you all the time, I really don't feel like kissing you, although I could. And I don't really think of you as my boyfriend. But, I do think of you as my best friend! And that's just like being brothers, not that I have a brother to compare it with. Anyway, now that we've kind of figured that out, what's your point?" Jason smiled and said, "Well, what I'm trying to say is, that when we go off to school, we're not going to be together anymore. But I think I've been thinking of it as if our whole relationship was breaking up. That's not happening though! I'm still going to love you, as a brother, and we can still be best friends! We may not be able to spend any time together, and we won't be having sex, well... maybe we can cyber!... Point is, we're not going to lose each other when we go to school. We can always be best friends!" Paul grinned, "That's true! And it makes me feel better thinking about it that way! I don't know why, but I've been thinking about this as if we'd never see each other again, and not be friends anymore too. That's not gonna happen though! I'm sure gonna miss you, and all the great sex with you though!" "I know, me too," Jason said. "Well, we can 'cyber' like you said. I'm taking my computer, and you are too, right?" Paul said. "Yup!" Jason said. "So... where does that leave us with making new friends?" Paul said. "Well, I fully expect to make new friends, and I expect you will too!" Jason said. "Duh! I know that. You know what I mean. What about sex? What if we meet someone new who wants to have sex?" Paul asked. "Well, if we're not romantically attached to each other, then it should probably be OK for either of us to go ahead and have a romantic relationship with someone else. Right?" Jason asked, glancing nervously at Paul, as he was unsure of what Paul's reaction would be. Paul looked at Jason a moment, then said, "It'll be weird having sex with someone other than you!" "Yeah, I feel the same way," Jason said. "I suppose it's bound to happen though," Paul said. "Yeah," Jason said. "Will we ever have sex again then?" Paul asked. "Don't see why we couldn't," Jason said. "What if we end up in a romantic relationship though? And we don't want to cheat on our boyfriends?" Paul asked. Jason thought a minute and said, "I think it would be OK for us to have sex anyway, even if we were both in relationships. It wouldn't really be cheating! It'd be just me and you. The two of us. Best friends and fuck buddies for life! It really wouldn't interfere with our romantic relationships, because you and I aren't romantically involved. If you and I were ever going to be romantically involved, it would've happened by now! So we wouldn't ruin our romantic relationships with our boyfriends, we'd just be feeding our 'brotherly' relationship! And our boyfriends wouldn't even ever have to know!" Paul grinned. "I like it," he said. "I like it a lot!" "Me too," Jason said. Both boys seemed happier, having settled how they would leave things between them. * * * And so it came to pass, that a couple days later, after having spent the entire morning, and the previous night together fucking each other's brains out in Jason's bed, the two boys said good-bye to each other, and each went their separate ways to pack to go off to different schools. This would be the first time they'd been apart in six years, other than for when one or both boys were off on vacations with their families. Although they planned to stay in contact via e-mails, IMs, and phone calls, Jason and Paul wouldn't see each other for three months. Not until they were both home at the same time for Thanksgiving, and then, that would only be for a few days during which they'd both be busy with their families. When the actual moment came that Jason and Paul had to part, both boys suddenly admitted to themselves and each other that no matter how much they tried to keep their relationship the same as it had always been, their lives were changing, and nothing would truly ever be the same again. First Paul's, then Jason's eyes filled with tears, and they ended up wrapped in each other's arms crying. When they'd both calmed down, Jason said to Paul, "Even though things are changing, we'll always be best friends, no matter what! Right?" "You bet!" Paul said. The boys pulled apart a little, although they remained in each other's arms. They looked at each other for a moment, then Jason leaned forward and gently kissed Paul on the lips. Paul responded by kissing Jason back. As their lips met each other again, they each opened their mouths and shared a long, sensual, kiss together, exploring each other's mouths with their tongues. After a couple minutes, they finally parted. Breathing heavily, Paul said, "So were we just being romantic then?" Jason smiled wanly and said, "It was about the only thing we never did with each other. I thought it was time we tried it out." "It was nice. I wish we'd tried it sooner!" Paul said, his lower jaw trembling a bit. Jason squeezed him and said, "Yeah. I agree." Paul pulled away from Jason then and said, "I gotta go." They said their good-byes, then hugged each other tightly for a minute. Paul picked up his bag then, and ran out of Jason's room, down the stairs, and out of the house, with tears streaming down his cheeks. * * * "Are you OK?" Luke, asked Jason a minute later, when he walked into Jason's room and found him sniffling and wiping his eyes. "Yeah," Jason said. "I'll be OK. But, c'mere a minute." Luke walked over to Jason, and stood in front of him, looking at him questioningly. Jason wrapped his arms around Luke and dragged the younger boy into a hug. "I'm gonna miss you!" Jason said, as more tears welled in his eyes. Luke smiled, and wrapped his arms around his brother and held him, as he felt his own eyes watering up. The two hugged each other for a minute, then parted. "Sorry," Jason said, thickly. "It's OK," Luke said, rubbing his eyes. "I'm gonna miss you too!" The two grinned at each other, then Luke asked Jason to play some hoop with him. Even though Jason still had to pack, he decided to spend some quality time with his brother instead. * * * After an hour of playing basketball with Luke, Jason spent the balance of the day packing his car up. He would be leaving for Virginia early the next morning. About the same time Jason was finising packing his car up, Paul's family was driving Paul, who was loaded down with luggage, to the airport. When they got there, they helped him check his luggage and waited with him till it was time to board the plane. They said a tearful good-bye, then Paul boarded his plane and he flew off to California, where he would be going to school. * * * Jason's family had a 'Farewell' steak roast for Jason that night. The family spent the evening together. It was pleasant but strained, as it was noticed more than once that Mrs. Anderson had tears in her eyes. Later, after everyone had said good-night, and the boys had gone up to their rooms, Jason, checked his e-mails one last time before disconnecting and packing up his laptop. He grinned when he saw one from Paul. He'd already arrived in California. He was OK, and was all unpacked already. His roommate seemed like a nice guy so far. He knew a couple other students, and had invited Paul to join their group at a "Welcome" party at the Student Union. That was apparently where Paul was at the moment, as it was three hours earlier on the west coast. Smiling to himself, Jason logged off and shut his laptop. Then he unplugged it from the wall and phone line and packed it in its brief case. All he had to do in the morning now, was put his laptop, and one last bag into the car, and he'd be all packed and ready to go. As he was stripping to go to bed, there was a tap on his door. It was Luke. "I thought I'd check and see if you were OK," Luke said. Jason grinned, and asked him in. "I was just going to bed. How'd you like to keep me company tonight?" he asked Luke. Luke smiled shyly and said, "OK." Luke watched as Jason stripped completely and crawled into bed. Then, he too stripped down and got in next to his brother. The two boys talked for about an hour, before Jason fell asleep. When Luke realized Jason had fallen asleep, he smiled to himself, then gently snuggled up to his brother, and went to sleep himself. * * * When Jason woke up in the morning, Luke was laying on his side, snuggled up to him. He had a hardon, and it was pressing against Jason's hip. Jason grinned to himself. He looked at the clock and realized it was a few minutes later than he'd planned on getting up. Gently, he tried to extricate himself from under his brother, and get up. Luke woke up though. "Sorry," Jason said, pushing the covers down and getting up. "I'm running behind already." Luke was staring at his brother's hardon, and smirking. "Wipe that smile off your face son!" Jason said, snickering. "You've got a chubby too!" Luke grinned and pushed the covers off himself, releasing his erection. "Damn! It's big too!" Jason said, grinning. Luke jumped up and strode around the bed to Jason. "Let's see who's is bigger!" Jason grinned as Luke stepped in front of him, so his hardon was right next to his. Shyly, Luke he reached down and took both his own, and his brother's penises in his hand and pressed them together. Jason breathed in deeply. His brother hadn't touched his penis in a long time. It felt nice though. Luke held his own and his brother's erect penises together and pushed forward, so that the tip of Jason's penis was pressing up against his body. "Looks like I'm still a tad longer!" Jason said, smiling, indicating the gap between his own body, and the head of Luke's dick. Luke looked a little disappointed, as he let go of their penises and stepped back. Jason grinned, "I'm older than you, and you're still not all grown up. It'll get bigger yet. Besides, it's not the size that matters, it's if you know how to use it." Luke snickered and said, "Well, I've got that all sewn up!" Jason chuckled and said, "Well, why don't you go 'use' it, while I go shower!" Luke grinned, and headed for his room then, while Jason went to shower. * * * First, Jason brushed his teeth and shaved, then, as his hardon had softened most of the way, he was able to sit down on the toilet and take a crap. Afterwards, he got into the shower, and shampooed and washed. He soaped up his dick when he was done, and spent a couple minutes sliding his soapy hand up and down his rod, until gasping, he blew his load all over the shower curtain. Feeling relaxed then, Jason washed away the 'evidence', before climbing out of the shower and using the blow dryer on his hair. Jason ran back to his room and quickly dressed in the clothes he'd left out to wear. Then, he picked up his bag, and his laptop. With bitter-sweet thoughts running through his mind, he took a last look around his room. All the things that remained, he meant to leave behind. "Breakfast!" he heard his mother call. Quickly, Jason ran down the stairs and out to his car. He put his laptop and bag in, then he went back inside for breakfast. * * * While Jason was showering and dressing, Luke was lying naked on his back on his bed, slowly sliding his lotioned hand up and down his hard cock. He had his legs drawn up a little at his sides, and the fingers of his left hand, which were also coated with hand lotion, were busy massaging his anus. It didn't take long before the boy felt his orgasm building up. Luke closed his eyes and as he often did when he masturbated, he imagined it was his brother's hands that were sliding up and down his dick, and massaging his anus. He started stroking his dick a little harder and faster, as the pressure and pleasure mounted within him. Suddenly, gasping, his dick exploded, and he squirted a string of cum, that landed in his hair. Luke kept on stroking, until he'd sprayed himself 4 or 5 more times, with cum. When he was finished, he had gobs and strings of semen puddling and streaking over him from the hair on his head, down to his pubic hair. "Fuck! That was a messy one," he thought, grinning to himself as he got up. Luke didn't bother cleaning himself off, as he was heading straight for the shower. Still streaked with cum, he peeked out his door, and seeing that nobody was around, ran into the bathroom, which Jason had just vacated. He showered, then ran back to his room and dressed. He was just making his bed as he heard his mother calling them to breakfast. * * * Mrs. Anderson had made eggs, sausages, and pancakes for everyone. There was also juice, and a pot of coffee. She wanted Jason to have a good breakfast before he left. He had a 14 hour drive ahead of him. The family ate rather quietly. After breakfast, it was almost 8:00 already, well past the time Jason had wanted to leave. He had to go. Everyone followed him out to his car. Jason fought hard to hold back his tears, as he got up to leave. It was extremely difficult, because his mother was sobbing, Luke was sniffling and rubbing his eyes, and his chin was trembling, and even Mr. Anderson was rubbing his eyes, and blowing his nose. After seperate good-bye hugs, the whole family shared a group hug. Then Jason, who was still bravely holding back his tears, took a last look around the yard. He got into his car then, and waving, drove away. He could see his family, watching and waving in his rear view mirror, as he drove down the street. He managed to get around the corner and out of sight of them before he had to pull over because he couldn't see through the tears that were pouring from his eyes. Jason pulled over to the curb, and put the car in park. Then he gave into his emotions and wept openly for a minute or two. Eventually, Jason got control of himself, and dried his eyes. Then, he put his car into gear, and headed for the main highway south. * * * Jason's trip was uneventful for the most part. It took two hours longer than he expected though, due to various traffic delays, and slightly longer rest stops than he'd figured on. It was just after midnight when he pulled into the parking lot in front of the dorms he would be living in on campus. He was weary, thirsty, a little hungry, and had to go to the bathroom really bad. * * * Taking his laptop and a couple bags, Jason locked up his car and went into the dorm complex. He took the elevator up to the floor his room was on, and wandered down the hallway, looking for his room. There were a few other students around, most of whom smiled or nodded at him. A couple of girls shyly said "hello". For the most part, it was pretty quiet though. Not all the students had arrived yet, and most of them who had, were tired and had gone to bed already. At last, Jason located his room. It was near the end of the hallway. He pulled the key he'd been sent out of his pocket, unlocked the door and stepped inside. The room was completely dark. Jason was a little surprised, as his roommate, whom he'd spoken with recently on the phone, was supposed to be there already. Jason felt around until he located a wall switch, and flipped it on. The lights came on, and much to his surprise, Jason saw someone sleeping in one of the beds. When the lights came on, the young man in the bed, suddenly woke up and sat up, blinking. "Sorry!" Jason said. "Uh... are you Dan Montgomery?" "Yeah," came a groggy, southern drawl from Dan. "Jason?" "Yeah. Sorry to wake you," Jason said softly, setting down his bags and closing the door behind him. "'sall right. I expected y'all a little earlier though," Dan said. "Y'all have problems gettin' down here? By the way, call yer mother. She's called a couple times. Nothing's wrong. Just worried that y'all weren't here already." "Thanks. I expected to be here earlier, but I hit a lot of road construction and traffic delays," Jason said, starting to hunt for his cell phone. "Let me call her quick." "My phone's right here. You can use it," Dan said, still blinking and trying to focus, as he pointed to a phone on the table between the two beds. "Thanks," Jason said. "I'll pay you back for the call when the bill comes." Jason picked up the phone and called home. His mother answered on the first ring. "You're gonna have to not worry so much about me Mom!" Jason said, snickering, as he heard her urgently say his name questioningly, rather than the standard 'hello' she always answered with. Mrs. Anderson was greatly relieved to hear her son's voice, and that he was OK. He explained about the traffic delays, then said he'd talk to her the next day. They said good night then. * * * As Jason hung up, Dan pushed back the covers and climbed out of bed. Standing up, he extended his hand to Jason. "Well... pleased to make yer acquaintence!" Dan said. Jason's eyes opened a little wider as he stared up and down at his roommate in surprise. Dan was standing there in front of Jason, completely naked. In the split second, before Dan realized he was naked, Jason managed to take in his entire body. Dan was a really nice looking guy. He had a handsome, boyish face, and didn't look like he was able to grow a beard yet, just a little stubble on his chin. He was well tanned, except where he'd obviously always worn shorts or a swim suit. His hair was dirty blond, with bleachy blond streaks through it. It was long compared to most guy's, similar in fact to Jason's, except in color. His eyes were vivid blue like Jason's though. And, he was also slender and fit looking. He had a really nice looking, good-sized, cut penis, beneath a bush of flaxen colored pubic hair. A slight treasure trail traveled upward from his bush, to his navel. Other than that, he didn't have an overabundance of body hair, just a little fuzz on his legs and forearms. His chest was smooth. He was damned cute, Jason thought to himself, as he felt his dick beginning to stir. "Shit!" Dan said, suddenly, as he realized he was naked. He blushed deeply, and his own eyes opening wider. "Uh... Sorry!" he said, quickly grabbing a pillow and covering his genitals. "Um... I usually sleep naked when I'm alone, and since it had gotten so late, I figured y'all weren't coming tonight, so I decided to sleep naked tonight. It's more comfortable. At least I think it is. I'll wear boxers from now on though." Grinning, Jason said, "Don't worry about it. When I'm home, I always sleep naked myself. If you don't mind , I don't either. We can just both sleep naked and be comfortable if you want." "Sounds good to me!" Dan grinned. Then he said, "So, y'all got a lot to unload?" "It can wait till tomorrow," Jason said. "No!" Dan said, dropping the pillow he'd been covering his crotch with, and bending over to pick up a pair of jeans that were laying on the floor. "I'll help y'all unload, and we'll get it all in here tonight. It's supposed to start raining tonight, and it's not supposed to stop for a few days." Jason smiled, as Dan pulled his jeans on commando-style. "Well, no need for undies, if I'm only takin' 'em off again in a few minutes," Dan said, grinning, when he saw Jason watching him. "True," Jason said, blushing a little. "Thanks for helping me unload. I'm sorry I woke you up though." "Hell, don't worry 'bout that!" Dan said, grinning. * * * As Dan pulled on his sneakers, Jason looked around. Seeing the bathroom, he remembered how bad he had to pee. "Um, can I use the bathroom?" Jason asked. "I sure hope y'all won't be askin' me that everytime y'all have to go!" Dan said, looking a Jason. Jason blushed again and grinned. Then he dashed into the bathroom. The door didn't latch, as he pushed it shut, and swung back open again slowly, so that Dan had a clear view of Jason as he peed. "Christ," Jason thought, "it's just like my bedroom door!" "Shit man! Didn't y'all stop to pee between Vermont and here?" Dan asked, as he stood in the doorway, watching Jason pee. Jason snickered and said, "It's all those supersize Coke's from McDonald's!" As Dan chuckled, Jason noticed that his gaze seemed to be glued to Jason's penis. Jason thought that was interesting, and smiled to himself as he felt his testicles tingle slightly. * * * After Jason had peed, he and Dan went down to Jason's car. As they were pulling some boxes out, they heard the rumble of thunder in the distance. "Yup! Gonna start soon!" Dan said. "We'd best get all yer stuff inside quick!" The two made four trips to Jason's car, and on the last trip, it was starting to sprinkle as they ran into the building. Luckily that was all of it. When they got up to their room, it was pouring buckets of rain outside, and thunder was crashing loudly, and flashes of lightning were lighting up the sky. * * * "Thanks for helping me get all my stuff inside," Jason said to Dan. "No problem!" Dan said. Jason was exhausted at that point and said, "If you don't mind, I just wanta go to bed. I'm really beat! I'll unpack tomorrow!" "Sounds good," Dan said, sitting down and pulling off his sneakers. "Y'all gotta put sheets on yer bed first though!" "Yeah, they're in this box," Jason said, reaching for a box that his mother had packed his linens in. As Jason pulled out a pair of sheets and pillow cases, Dan pulled off his jeans again. "It's a small room, but I think it'll do. I got one a them small refrigerators set up for us already, and there's drinks and snacks in it. Help yerself if y'all want any." Dan said. "Thanks! I'll give you some money for half tomorrow," Jason said, as he started making his bed up. "No rush," Dan said. He stepped over and helped Jason tuck in the sheets then. Jason grinned. He couldn't believe how at ease Dan was with being nude in front of him, since they'd only just met. He thought it was a good sign though, and already knew he was going to like Dan. The only thing he was worried about, was all the hardons he expected he was going to get over Dan. He worried they'd give away the fact that he was gay. He hoped Dan didn't figure out that he was gay, as he was afraid that would end their friendship rather abruptly. Once Jason's bed was made up, Jason quickly pulled out a bag with some toiletries in it. He wanted to get his tooth brush out. His bottle of hand lotion, that he masturbated with, was on top of everything though. He pulled it out and tried to surreptitiously set it on the shelf next to his bed. Dan saw him though and started laughing. "Bet I know what that's for!" Dan said, waggling his eyebrows at Jason. Jason turned red in the face, and didn't know what to say. "I'm sorry," Dan said, smiling. "The reason I'm laughing is, I keep a jug next to the bed too!" Dan pointed then to the shelf next to his bed. Jason looked, and sure enough, there was a bottle of lotion. He laughed then too. As he was laughing along with Dan, he saw a picture of a girl sitting next to Dan's bottle of lotion. As he stood staring at it, Dan's eyes followed his gaze. "That's my girlfriend Lisa," he said. "Don't know what this separation'll do to us. She's in school in Texas. Anyways, a guy's gotta have something to look at while he pounds his pud!" Dan grinned at Jason. Jason smiled back, but felt disappointed that Dan was obviously straight. The intermittent tingling he'd felt in his crotch went away then. Jason went back to rooting around in his toiletries bag. "So, y'all have a girlfriend?" Dan asked Jason. "Uh... no," Jason answered. "Oh," Dan said, looking curiously at Jason. Finding his toothbrush and toothpaste, Jason put his bag down and sat on the bed to take his sneakers off. Dan sat down on his bed opposite him and watched then as Jason started to undress. As Jason stood up to take off his jeans, Dan was still watching him. Noticing this, Jason looked at him curiously. "Well, y'all've seen me naked. Now it's my turn to see y'all!" Dan said, grinning, when he noticed Jason looking at him. Jason smiled, and stripped his jeans and boxers off then and stood naked in front of Dan. "Do I pass inspection?" he asked, grinning. For a second or two, Dan looked Jason up and down. His eyes fell back to Jason's crotch then, which was right in front of his face. "Yup! Ya'll are fine looking!" Dan said, grinning, and turning a bit red in the face. Then, saying "good-night", he quickly jumped into bed, and pulled the covers up over him. Grinning, Jason said "good-night!", then went into the bathroom to get ready for bed. * * * Dan was already asleep again, when Jason came back out of the bathroom. It was then that Jason noticed the reading lamp built into the wall by Dan's bed. Looking at his own bed, he found one there too. He stepped over and turned the one on by his bed. As he did, he noticed a phone jack and electrical outlet near his bed. Grinning, he went to the wall switches by the door and turned out the big overhead light. Jason picked up the briefcase with his laptop in it, and put it on the bed. Realizing he was thirsty, he quietly looked inside the refrigerator and found several cans of cold soda and juice. He selected a 'sprite' then went and got into bed. The shelf built into the wall next to his bed was going to be perfect for his laptop. It was just wide enough. Jason quickly unpacked the power and modem cords and hooked up the laptop. He powered it up, and turned the sound off. Jason was pleased to find out that his phone service was working. He quickly programmed the numbers for AOL for the area into the laptop. He'd looked them up before leaving home, so he'd have them when he arrived. Within minutes, as Dan snored softly a few feet away, Jason had his PC up and was logged into AOL. Jason smiled when he saw that he had an e-mail from Luke, and another one from Paul. Luke just wanted to say 'Welcome Home!' Jason quickly typed a reply to him. Then he read Paul's e-mail. Paul was doing OK. He had a few new friends. His roommate was driving him nuts though. He was most definitely straight, and was constantly having his girlfriend, who was also on campus, over for sex! Shame he was straight, since he was really cute Paul said. Chuckling quietly to himself, Jason typed out an answer to Paul then: "Dear Paul, Well, I made it! Took 16 hours, but, I'm in Virginia! Got here at midnight, and my new roommate helped me unload my things. Just as we got everything inside, it started to pour. It was thundering and lightning too, but that's let up now, or I wouldn't be using my laptop. Anyway - it's supposed to rain the next few days. Oh joy! Anyway, I guess I got here just in time. Glad things are OK with you. Too bad your roommate's not gay! Mine's real nice. He's quite the character, and has a really cool Southern drawl. Good news - he has a body that's to die for! Better news - he doesn't mind getting naked in front of me! Bad news - he's got a girlfriend! Good news - she's in Texas! Bad news - he's got a girlfriend! lol Anyway - he seems nice, and I think we'll get along fine. Gonna have a hard time not popping a boner in front of him though, when I see him naked! OK - I'm beat. It's after 1:00. I gotta crash! Love ya, Jase" Jason clicked 'send', and his e-mail was sent. * * * Jason knew he should be falling asleep, but actually he wasn't as tired as he thought. He figured it must've been all the caffeinated Coke he drank on the trip down from Vermont. Since he wasn't all that tired yet, he decided to check the news quickly before he went to sleep. Jason had only been reading the news on CNN for a couple minutes when he was suddenly IMed by Paul! "Are you still 'up'" Paul IMed. "Yeah, I'm always 'up' you asshole! lol Just reading the news before I crash," Jason replied. "This is so cool! We'll still be able to talk!" Paul said. "Yeah! ~grins~ So how's it going?" Jason asked. "Good! I got a hardon though, and you're not here to suck it!" Paul replied. "lol - me too!" Jason replied, as he did indeed feel his dick stiffening at just the thought of Paul. "My roommate's out. Wanta 'cyber'?" Paul asked. Jason looked over at Dan's bed. He'd stopped snoring, but appeared to still be asleep. "I guess, my roommate's asleep a few feet away. What're you wearing?" Jason said. "Nothing. u?" came Paul's reply. "same, lol" Jason said. "Got your lotion handy?" Paul asked. "You bet," Jason typed in. "Well, grease up! I will too!" Paul said. Jason glanced again at Dan. Dan seemed to be sleeping yet. "k" Jason said. Quietly he reached for his bottle of lotion. He poured a little into his right hand.
