-
- It was a warm July night in 1989. I was out walking, trying to forget the job
- that I had just left. It was late; the night air was comfortable. It was really
- helping me fast to forget just how fast-paced and mind-boggling the job was;
- there would be other jobs, I knew this was no problem. The problem would be to
- find one with enough pay; but at the moment the only thing that was on my mind,
- now at about the stroke of midnight and being about five miles from my house,
- was the stretch of road ahead as I came off from walking these railroad tracks.
- The tracks had helped bridge the distance from point A to point B just a little
- faster; I may have saved about a mile or so than if I had otherwise taken
- pavement.
- I knew my surroundings; I had been here before. I wasn't lost but for some
- reason I wanted to be. I wanted to be somewhere on some street somewhere and
- have to guess where I was and where I might come out. I knew several truths
- though as I walked along - that I was gay, and that I wanted to find someone
- else that might be as interested in me for a lover as I was in them. I knew
- that it might be years before I found a true "lover", but I couldn't stop
- looking and as I guess everyone is, I was impatient. I wanted someone now, I
- had waited too long already it seemed; t was worse than a wait in a doctor's
- office to see a doctor, probably because one you dread and the other you
- don't.. or something.
- My feet continued to pound the pavement as I walked the streets; I might be out
- all night for all I cared. There probably wasn't another soul in town awake at
- this hour, this, a growing town in the Northwest suburbs of Atlanta. Still, I
- walked along, blasting a walkman in my ear. I felt as though I was walking into
- a void; I had felt this way a million times before and yet I wouldn't stop just
- walking - it was as though I was challenging the void - to prove there was
- something out there. To some, at such an hour, it may seem dangerous or even
- stupid.
- There were still lots of people out at this hour, but they were driving,
- probably to or from work - who knew? This was Monday morning anyway, but I knew
- school had let out for the summer. I dropped my headphones down around my neck
- as I began to tire of the music. I had walked nearly eight miles I figured, and
- I just wanted to hear the golden silence that was around me and let the air get
- to my ears again; ears which were warm to hot from having earpads pressing
- against them as I trudged along.
-
- I walked a little more cautiously down this road here, because it didn't
- provide good line-of-sight vision in either lane, so I would lane-change
- frequently, with regard to hills and so forth. I would head toward a certain
- hill, I guessed, for lack of any other logical destination. This hill gave me a
- good look at downtown Atlanta and the surrounding countryside. I knew the owner
- of the land had just built a house up there, yet still - I thought I might
- sneak by for a look. It was still about four miles from where I was to the
- hill, though, and more pavement pounding. I glanced at my watch - it was
- already 12:30. Still, as far as I had come, it had been a good walk on ANY
- night. But I wanted to go on. This was doing me good.
- As it turned out, it was about to do me a lot MORE good. "Pssst..." I heard
- someone say. Shit. Some bastard's got a gun on me. I started to break in run.
- Instead, I froze in my tracks.
- "Hey you!" the voice whispered. "Come here a second!"
- Uh.. yeah. Who are you, the tax collector? You can't be talking to me.
- "Come here! I'm serious! I don't want anything!" the voice sounded young,
- caring. It didn't sound like some redneck. It didn't sound like a woman. It
- sounded like a guy. It took all this time for me to sort that out. But then, he
- might be going to play a joke. Still, I guess I'd been the victim of enough
- jokes; what was one more going to hurt? I had nothing else better to do. I
- approached the dark, quiet house. Hell - what if he had a Doberman Pinsher he
- was waiting to let loose on me? Shit! The hysteria of the moment was killing
- me!
- There.. I was some 20 feet from the house. I dared not get any closer yet.
- "What do you want?" I whispered from this insane, yet somehow safe, distance.
- "I dunno man, I guess I'm as crazy for calling you as you are for coming up
- here!"
- "Hey!" I sort of snapped. "Is this some kind of joke?"
- "No! Look.. I live here, and you're on my property. If I was going to play a
- joke on somebody, it sure as hell wouldn't be here! Uh.. could you use somebody
- to talk to?"
- How in hell did he know I was just "out" and not going anywhere in particular?
- That my car didn't get stranded somewhere or something and I was looking for a
- station - shew! He knew, somehow. Maybe it was the phase of the moon.
- But then, how did he know I wasn't some killer and he was to be my next victim?
-
- "My name's Keith," he said. "My mom's out of town and I'm just watching the
- place while she's away. Just thought I'd spend this one night, then go back to
- my apartment."
- Keith told me he was 24. I looked over at him; I could only make out certain
- features with the angle that the distant street light was shining. I could tell
- that in the clothing department, the only thing he had on was a pair of white
- jockey underwear. He was obviously "white" as I was, and he sounded a little
- sexy. I really could not attest for his looks just yet.
- "Well, my name's Jason and I'm 27.. just kinda out walking.. just to get
- away.."
- "Where you live?"
- "About eight miles from here..." I pointed Northwest.
- "Good God! That's a long walk, isn't it? I can get you something to drink if
- you like.."
- "WOULD you mind?"
- "No! I offered, didn't I? What for ya? Coke, Pepsi, I got tea, root beer, milk,
- coffee... Michelob.."
- "Whew! A cold Pepsi would be fine..."
- "Well, I'm sure it would, but it's not cold, I'll have to put it on ice..."
- "Okay." I walked into the light of the kitchen. W-w-whoa! He did have a nice
- figure! He was about 5' 11", he had light brown hair down to his shoulders in
- back, and a body I really couldn't bitch about. He was turned to the freezer
- now, getting ice and putting it in a glass as I happened to glance down and
- notice his lower torso. It was difficult to say if he had a hardon or not, but
- the briefs fit him tightly and they were definitely not new. This could get
- interesting.
- The house had an interesting aroma about it. Oh.. the feelings that I had
- sweeping through me now. Part of me was saying, "you KNOW he's gay, he doesn't
- SOUND like a flaming queen or anything, but look at the way he's doing shit...
- he can't have anybody back at that apartment..." Still there was that one part
- of me that said, "slow down! Let nature take it's course! He'll let you know if
- he's gay or... whatever.. don't push your luck or he'll make you leave!"
- He handed me the drink. "Here," he said, smiling like he didn't have a care in
- the world. "Thanks a lot!" I said.
- "Don't mention it; it's the least I could do. Don't guzzle it all down either
- now!"
- "Heh.. I won't.."
- Somehow I was detecting a double meaning to that.. "don't guzzle it down"
- sounded like he wanted me to stay a while. Hmmm.. fuck that walk to the hill. I
- didn't really care that much for it anyway!
- We sat in the kitchen and talked. Damn, I couldn't get over this.
- "Are.. you an 'only child'?" I asked.
- "Yeah.. you?"
- "Not exactly. I have an older half-sister, but she's married... got a kid.."
- I said that like I hated to spout "married" and "kid" out of my mouth. Actually
- I did...
- Keith looked at me as he turned his glass up again. "You married?" he asked.
- "Naah.. not me."
- He nearly choked on his Coke. It was probably the way I said it. I said it
- matter-of-factly and as though I were saying, "what, you crazy?"
- "You okay?" I asked.
- "Yeah, yeah, I'm fine, it just.. went down the wrong way."
- "Well, are YOU married?" I asked of Keith.
- "This may sound crazy, but hell no, and I plan to keep it that way!"
- Shit. Talk about GIVING yourself away.
- I started giggling. I couldn't help it, it was the nature of things around me
- and what he had just said all rolled up into one. He smiled. "Whaaat... did I
- say something?"
- "Sort of.."
- "Well, maybe I did," he said. "I guess you could get a few things out of that,
- couldn't you?"
- "Yeah, I guess so.." I couldn't help smiling. Was he going to say it? Was he
- going to keep me guessing?
- "Incidentally," I said, "I never plan on getting married either. Does that make
- us even?"
- "It MIGHT.." he said. Then he added, rather shyly, "I've got a copy of The
- Advocate out there in my car..."
-
- I knew it. We're talking FAMILY here.
-
- "Shit!" he said as my smile widened. "No!"
- "Yeah mon.. I'm gay. Damn!"
- "I kinda thought you might be," Keith said, "but.. I just thought I better not
- ask.. I'd wait."
- "No WONDER you wanted me to take my time with this drink!"
- "Yeah well, still it's not good for you after a long walk like this... just sip
- it slow.. I gotta piss, be right back."
- He got up, walked around the corner to a bathroom. I could hear the sound of it
- hitting the water in the toilet. Damn, he was really backed up because he
- pissed for something like two minutes before he flushed.
- He had the faint trace of a mustache stating, but other than that he was
- clean-shaven and really cute. "Heh.." I said. "you really held the water,
- didn't you?"
- "Yeah, guess so.. heh.. listening huh?"
- "Wellll.. yeah, I kinda was."
- "Do you have a boyfriend, Jason?"
- "No.. I don't."
- "I see. Well.." he popped his wrist slightly. "Stop asking so many questions,"
- he told himself.
- "That's okay!" I said. "Ask anything, man.. I don't care! If you get too
- personal, I'll let you know!"
- "I'm sure you WILL!" he said, jokingly.
- "Do you have a boyfriend Keith?"
- "Nope."
- "Well, do you have any friends?" I asked.
- "Well, I know a few people around the apartment complex, but not that well, and
- not well enough to ask any favors.."
- "I see.. well I don't have but one or two, and they're so far away..."
- "Oh? Are you just in town for a while?" Keith asked suddenly.
- "No, I live here... I live.." I sighed.. "I still live with my parents."
- "Well, I know how that is," he said. "It's a drag. See, well... my parents are
- divorced.."
- "Oh.. I'm sorry.."
- "That's okay.. it's not your fault.."
- "I know, I'm just sorry.."
- "Well, thanks. You know, you really sound like you could use a friend.."
- "You do too," I said.
- "Oh, you can tell?"
- "Yeah!"
- "Well, heh.. remind me to invite you to stop a little more often!" Keith said
- as we got up and went into the living room. He turned on a lamp and we
- continued to talk.
- "Well, Keith... stop me if I'm pressuring you.."
- "Naah! No way man.. you're not bothering me! If you want to ask something, go
- ahead... heh.."
- "Well, are you from here?"
- "Yeah man, I grew up in this house. Now I live in Smyrna..."
- "Oh.."
- "Why you ask?"
- "Just curious... uh.. just a comment here.. nothing more.."
- "What's that?"
- "You look good in that underwear."
- "Hehe.. thanks. Look.. uh.."
- "What, Keith?"
- "I was just gonna say, if you want.. feel free to stay the night if you don't
- think your parents would bitch you out in the morning.."
- "Ahh.. well, I appreciate the offer.."
- "Well, I mean, I just thought I'd offer it to you. If not, I'll run you back
- home tonight so you don't have to walk, if that's what you want."
- I stripped down to my underwear. The sweat was rolling down my chest. My
- underwear was really wet and it felt good and cool here now with nothing else
- on. I was also starting to get a little stiff watching Keith - nothing
- personal, it just naturally seemed to do that.
- "Just.. thought I'd get a little more comfortable.."
- "Yeah... do whatever you want, really."
- I glanced at my watch. It was about 1:30 now. Keith saw me.
- "Don't worry about time, dude. Really.. hell, I could stay up all night..."
- "I could too. Actually, my parents wouldn't bitch at all if I got in at about
- 7ish in the morning, but I'm not sure I'm going home."
- "Do you work?"
- "Not now, I did work, I quit though because of personal stress and things like
- that.."
- I looked around the room for an ashtray. I didn't smoke, I just wanted to see
- if Keith did. He hadn't had a lit cigarette since I had been there.
- "What ya looking for?" he asked.
- "Oh, I didn't find it, I didn't WANT to find it actually.."
- "What's that?"
- "An ashtray."
- "There's one in the kitchen. Heh.. my mom smokes... I don't."
- "Oh? Good I don't either. If I did, I probably couldn't have walked this far."
- "This is true... yeah I don't smoke and I don't do drugs," Keith said to which
- I agreed. "I will have a beer once in a while, but that's just for the taste.
- I'm not a drunkard, don't get me wrong."
- "Oh, I understand," I said.
- I sat back down beside him on the couch. "Damn," I said, "this is unreal."
- "What?"
- "Just sitting here with you, I mean, knowing I could ask you anything."
- "Same here, Jason. Can I call you Jas?"
- "Yeah... that's fine."
- "Okay.. well, I mean, where'd you go to school and all that?"
- Ugh. School. He'd know Sprayberry, my diploma said "Sprayberry," he would NOT
- know Green Acres. Damn. He would if he had to. Here came the truth, for a
- change.
- "Well, I graduated from Sprayberry, but I was in a special ed thing at Green
- Acres for a while."
- "Oh.. oh! Green Acres, the one in Smyrna?"
- "Yeah..."
- "My apartment complex is right behind it! Yeah.. I know where that is.."
- "Oh.. yeah I know the one you're talking about..."
- I studied his body, slowly. He had a little chest hair, not much. He had some
- around his navel which seemed to go down and disappear under the elastic of his
- underwear. He had hairy legs too.
- "So, what do you do in your spare time, Jas? I mean for hobbies or whatever?"
- "Well, I like to play with my computer, I have a Commodore 64 I like to mess
- with, I like listening to music.."
- "Well, I have a computer too," he said. "I have a Commodore 128!"
- "Wow.. that's wild, do you use it a lot?"
- "Yeah, just about every day.. what kinda music you like?"
- "Well, top 40 stuff.. you know, some heavy stuff once in a while.. I like just
- about all kinds of rock.. you?"
- "Yeah, that's pretty much me, too.."
- "Do you have a modem?" I asked.
- "You know, somebody offered to sell me one of those real cheap not long ago and
- I turned it down.. couldn't figure out why I'd use it.."
- "Oh.. okay."
- "Why?"
- "No reason.. I have one, and they're kinda nice. I got one in 1983 and when I
- did, I kinda thought the same thing. It was when the Vicmodems were kinda high,
- like $70, and the only reason I bought it was because it said I got a free hour
- of CompuServe with it. I used it and put it on a shelf. I remember I thought,
- 'what the hell.. I wasted my money,' but there was other free stuff out there
- too.."
- I talked to him and told him there were actually gay sections and things going
- on that other people didn't dream possible. "Argh!" he said. "I could kick
- myself in the head for not getting that modem!"
- "Don't worry about it," I said. "You will see soon enough!"
- "Yeah I guess so.. wild.. Jas, can I.. pull down my underwear without upsetting
- you?"
- "Yes.."
- "You sure?"
- "Of course, if I can pull mine down!"
- "Sure!"
- We both parted with our underwear. We both had raging hardons. "I just..
- thought you might want to see it," Keith said. "You sorta woke it up.."
- "Me?"
- "Yeah... sorta."
- "How big is it?" I asked.
- "It's about seven I think, last time I checked it... how big is yours?"
- "About six and a half.."
- "Ahh..."
- His looked big, thick. It seemed the stiffer he got, the stiffer I got.
- "Jas what... what turns you on?"
- "Well, you mean what do I like to do with somebody else?"
- "Yeah.. look man, if this is too intense.."
- "No, it's not. Look, we can talk about anything, okay? I mean, anything that
- happens, I want you to know I'll still be friends with you. I can tell in
- talking with you for this long now that your friendship is strong."
- "Yeah, well yours is too. We're both pretty 'laid-back' in our ways and I can
- tell it.."
- "Yeah.. I can too."
- "So Jas, I can talk about anything. I can even stop talking about sex if you
- want to..."
- "Well, I'm fine.. I kinda.. I dunno, I was just looking at your dick, and it
- seems like I can't stop.."
- "Well, don't. Look at it all you want, it likes the attention!"
- "I can tell... heh.. well Keith, I mean, I kinda have dreams of one day finding
- this person to live with for the rest of my life, you know.. a caring
- individual who seems to love me as much as I care for him.. you know?"
- "Damn, my thoughts exactly."
- "Huh?" I said.
- "I feel that way too. I kinda always thought I'd want to be there for someone,
- to be there anytime they wanted.. you know? And to have them there for me.."
- "Damn!"
- I put my hand on his dick. It was warm. "Oohhh.. Jas, that feels good."
- "Yeah it feels good to me too. Look man, I don't want to upset you Keith!"
- "You're not!"
- "Well, you asked me what I liked to do.. I like sucking, getting sucked, I love
- to be fucked, prefer not to fuck but I will if I'm asked, I like to cuddle..
- but I don't get into a lot of kinky stuff.."
- "Yeah, I don't either. Well, I think basically I like everything you've told
- me, and uh.. I do like to fuck. Hell man, sometimes I'll fuck anything that
- doesn't run away!"
- "Really?"
- "Yeah.. I'll screw bedposts, door handles... heh.."
- "Keith, you need somebody in your life."
- "Jason, I may have just found him."
- "Do you have a roommate?"
- "No, as a matter of fact I'm looking for one. I just rented this apartment a
- few months ago, and the rent is eating me up."
- "Something else is eating me up," I said.
- "What?"
- "It's this feeling that's welling up inside of me.. it just started about
- fifteen minutes ago.."
- A pause. He looked at me, I looked at him. A dead stare.
- "An offer," he said. "Stay the night. Get up tomorrow, I'll take you home
- before your parents know what happened. Pack a bag, get the hell out. I'll pick
- you up and we'll go to my apartment, as long as you don't think you'll have any
- problem getting a job somewhere in the next... month or so. Deal?"
- "Yes!"
- "Shake on it!" we shook hands on it. I didn't let go of his outstretched hand
- though.
- "Jas?"
- "Sorry, I just..."
- "No, you're not. Take my hand again." I reached out and took it again. "I want
- you to know Jason," he said, "that Keith Logan cares for you, okay? Friends?"
- "Friends!"
- "Alright!"
- "Keith?"
- "Yeah?"
- "I'm glad you were sitting on the front porch!"
- "Yeah, I am too.. REAL glad!"
- We got up, went and laid on a bed side by side. "I like your hair like that," I
- said. "I'm trying to grow mine out like that too.."
- "Jas, what.. what kinda guys turn you on?"
- "Want a prime example?"
- "Yeah..."
- "You."
- "Oh. So I turn YOU on too."
- "I turn you on?" I asked.
- "Yeah.. you really do. Sorry."
- "Oh, no! There's nothing to be SORRY about! It's just natural.. you know, one
- thing I do like to do sometimes.. watch these kids on skateboards.. kinda wild
- to imagine what they like to do when they're not on them.."
- "Yeah.. I know whatcha mean.. I watch them sometimes too.."
- "Keith, are you still hard?"
- "Yes."
- "When was the last time you jacked off?"
- "Heh... yesterday morning I guess.."
- "I don't care if you do it now if you want..."
- "Well, see, Jas..."
- "What?"
- "I'd.. you.."
- "Keith, slow down, take a deep breath.. start over..."
- "Okay. Jas, I'd rather wait and let someone else take care of.. well.. do you
- want to suck my dick?"
- "Okay, sure!"
- "Jas, you are soo hot and sweaty!"
- "I know.. I'm sorry, I'm ruining the sheets.."
- "No, you're not! You're turning me on! I can't help it!"
- I clamped around his dick. God it was thick and hard. He winced a little as I
- moved a little on his pole.
- "Oh shit," he moaned, "this is the first time in over five years I've been
- sucked..."
- "Well, it's high time somebody helped you out again!" I said.
- "You.. you suck like you know what you're.. oohhh.. doing..."
- "I've done it before.."
- It wasn't long until Keith was belting streams of cum into my mouth. Then the
- streams turned to spurts and my mouth couldn't hold anymore. "Oh damn..." he
- said. "This is just too much man.."
- "What do you mean?"
- "You showing up and all.. must have been too much listening to that song, "Send
- Me An Angel..."
- "Heh.. well, I'm glad you feel that way.."
- "I do! I mean.. even more glad things worked out like they did!"
- "Yeah.."
- I was still hard. Slurping down Keith's wad had me hot. It tasted good. I got
- up on the other side of the bed now and started stroking my meat. Seeing me do
- this in the dark, Keith offered to return the favor. I accepted.
- "Mmm," I moaned. "Good?"
- "I love it so far," Keith said. Keith did just as well on me as I had done with
- him, I thought. Within two minutes I came with a shudder and gave him streams
- of cum. "Oh shit Keith, that was wild."
- "Jason, it was wild. You really feel good down there.. I loved it.. I'd do it
- again.."
- "Heh, I know you would.. that just.. made it sound like some ride at Six
- Flags..."
- "What?"
- "'I'd loved it.. I'd do it again..'."
- "Yeah, it kinda does, doesn't it?"
- "Shit Keith.. shit.." I felt tears welling up in my eyes.
- "What?"
- "I love you...."
- "Now, Jas... hang on a minute..."
- "I do.. I'm sorry.. just a minute.."
- I got up and ran to the bathroom which was adjacent to this bedroom. I dried my
- eyes and took a piss. I came back, got in the bed. I wasn't going to say it
- again, but somehow I felt it.
- "Jas," Keith said in a quiet and reserved voice, "I fucking love you too.
- There's no two ways about it, no doubt in my mind."
- It was so sudden.
-
- We began to kiss and cuddle. "Keith, I care for you as much as you care for me,
- you know that don't you?"
- "It's written all over your face. I know it happened in a hurry, but.. from
- what we did in here and the way you reacted, I could feel it instantly. I had a
- cousin that used to get mad and run to the bathroom like that. Then he'd come
- back and kiss me. Interesting, he never married either. He's about four years
- younger than me.
- I yawned. Keith yawned.
- "Let's get some sleep," he said. "Tomorrow's moving day.
- We kissed, and fell asleep. Keith was curled up right next to my stomach. I
- loved it.
