- Dorm Encounters XXIII: Taking Jason Home!@END_FILE_ID.DIZ
-
-
- We returned from Mexico much as we had left, but with one
- major difference. We were in love; true love. Never in a
- million years had I thought that I would find a man who made me
- so incredibly happy all of the time, but Jason had edged his way
- into my life quite suddenly and filled those shoes completely.
-
- I decided that this was the opportune time to take him home
- to meet the folks. We sat up for several late nights discussing
- this as Jason was quite contrary to the idea at first. He knew
- that I had not officially come out to my parents, and he had
- listened to me talk about the for long enough to know that they
- were not exactly going to love the idea easily. But the
- incredible support we gave each other won out, and we made the
- decision to head to Atlanta the following weekend.
-
- With the discussions over, I called home and asked if we
- could come and visit. While my mother seemed reticent to
- entertain a friend of mine, she agreed as long as we would only
- mess up one bedroom. Naturally, that was not a problem, if only
- she knew. Jason and I laughed hard and long about it.
-
- Friday afternoon never wanted to come. The week dragged
- into infinity until my last class Friday finally let out. Jason
- and I met in my room and shared a few deep intimite moments
- before packing the car and heading out.
-
- On the way to Atlanta, I gave him the standard briefing I
- give all my friends that I take home to meet my parents. "Here's
- some things you need to know, Jason. Just so you won't be
- surprised. My parents are mega millionaires, and act like it.
- The house was recently appraised at $32 million, we have
- servants, and there are a lot of things you can't do in their
- house. You can't smoke, you can't curse, you can't sit on any
- furniture that has ropes on it, you can't walk on any of the
- rugs, and you can't wander around the house unattended. These
- are the cardinal sins of the Whitaker Estate."
-
- Jason sat and listened to all I had to say and smirked as I
- continued the "can't" list for some time. He seemed amused
- rather than worried (like most of my friends receiving this
- briefing) and that affirmed my realization that this was the man
- for me.
-
- We arrived at home, passed by the security guard, and parked
- the car. Jason and I primped for a moment and went to the front
- door. After ringing the bell, the Butler led us inside to the
- room my mother calls "The Great Room," a room that is so
- incredibly huge you can't help but be intimidated. I watched in
- amusement as Jason glanced around the room, drinking in all the
- incredibly expensive things carefully and artfully perched here
- and there. Jason is a book fanatic and the wall to wall, ceiling
- to floor bookshelves that covered two of the walls, complete with
- the rolling ladder on the brass rail amazed him.
-
- I motioned to him the furniture with the ropes, and pushed
- him into a chair that was safe to sit in. We waited for several
- minutes for my parents to make their entrance, during which the
- Maid took our drink orders and brought us each a glass of
- Chardonay.
-
- Finally, (and you could almost hear the trumpet flourish in
- the background), my parents made their grand entrance. My mother
- and I hugged briefly, I shook my father's hand, and then I
- introduced Jason. "Mom and Dad, may I present Jason Lastname
- [:)], a fellow Resident Assistant and good friend?"
-
- Mom and Dad ordered wine and the four of us sat down for the
- traditional grilling. Mom and Dad asked the basics first, like
- where are you from, what do your parents do for a living, what
- religion are you, etc. Naturally, I had coached him a little,
- and he gave all the right answers without straying from the
- truth. See, there's a way to talk to my parents that works, and
- a way that doesn't work. You get the idea.
-
- After an interesting discussion during which Jason and I
- compared our experiences as Resident Assistants in different
- kinds of dorms, we went in to dinner. We were joined there by my
- brother and sister. Dinner progressed as any fine dining
- experience might, with servants passing in and out refilling
- glasses and plates, and the usual marvelously sintilating
- conversation passing back and forth across the table. Jason had
- the opportunity to speak more with my mother and father, and I
- could tell that my sister found him unbelievably cute as she
- began kicking me under the table.
-
- Sis of course knew about my sexual orientation, and her
- playful kicks were to say, if nothing else, that she approved and
- that she was quite jealous. I kicked her back to indicate that I
- understood.
-
- Finally, dessert had been cleared and coffee and brandy were
- being served in the Salon. (I've always thought I had to get a
- haircut in that room!) This is the time where most serious
- discussions in our house occured, and after some incredibly dull
- banter, I cleared my throat loudly, indicating that I had
- something to say. Jason was sitting next to my sister on a small
- sofa and I went to him. My sister with her incredible intuitive
- sense, got up and moved to another seat. I sat down next to
- Jason and patted his knee. I noticed that he was shaking and I
- looked at him and smiled. His expression told me that all was
- OK, and I began to speak.
-
- "This is a rather big piece of news that I am about to give
- you all, and I am glad that you are all here together so I only
- have to go through this once," I began. In a clear, firm, and
- steady voice I continued. "I have thought about what I am about
- to say for several long years, I've thought about how to say it,
- when to say it, who to say it to, and what to say. After a lot
- of thought and some recent events in my life, I find this the
- most opportune moment to share this news with you."
-
- I paused to let this sink in, and then continued. "I've
- known what I am about to tell you for a long long time. You've
- probably known it too, but were, for whatever reason, unwilling
- to believe it. I know only too well how conservative the
- thinking is in this family, but I want you to open your minds as
- much as you can before I tell you this." I stopped again and
- looked around at everyone in the room, ending by gazing quickly
- at Jason.
-
- "This is the short and long of it: I am gay." I stated.
-
- They all looked uncomfortable for a few seconds, then
- regained their composure. The look on my father's face told me
- that more explanation was warranted.
-
- "I have known this since I can remember, and acted on it for
- the first time in eighth grade. Since then, in every phase of my
- life except here at home, I have been open and positive about my
- orientation. Before any of you speak, I want you to know that
- this will never change how I feel about any of you, and I hope,
- in time, you will come to think the same way. I realize this is
- a shock to you, but I know that you are all intelligent enough to
- think about this before you go flying off the handle. Finally,
- and this is the end of my statement, I want you all to know that
- Jason is actually a lot more than a friend to me." I took
- Jason's trembling hand in mine and squeezed it hard. "Jason and
- I are in love, the kind of love most people search all their
- lives for, the kind of love that knows no bounds, the kind of
- love that lasts forever. End of statement."
-
- There was a long uncomfortable silence in the room, everyone
- taking all this in, no one willing to open up and talk. Finally,
- as I knew it would happen, my mother got up, crossed the room,
- stood in front of me and motioned for me to stand up. We hugged
- ferociously for several long seconds. She released me and moved
- in front of Jason and repeated the same motions, this time with
- tears in her eyes. She took each of our hands and said, "Andrew,
- I am your mother. I have known this for many years, and your
- father and I have discussed this many times. Though we do not
- condone homosexuality in general as it is just not the norm in
- our world, we love you more than anything in the world, and want
- you to be happy. If loving this wonderful man you have brought
- into our home this evening is what that means, we stand behind
- you one hundred percent."
-
- My father is a man of few words, and he stepped totally out
- of character as he stood and began to speak. "I've known for
- most of your life that you were different, Andrew. I tried to
- interest you in sports, and that failed. I made you be a Boy
- Scout, and you hated it. I made you go into the Army, and you
- hated it, although I must admit you surprised all of us in your
- many successes while on active duty. In all of these endeavors,
- I tried to force you to become something I didn't think you were
- capable of doing: becoming a man. I have seen, though, in the
- last several years while you were in school and leading your
- dorm, that you have become much more of a man than I ever thought
- you would be. And I can honestly say, no matter what sexual
- orientation you are, that I am proud to call you my son, and
- honored to call you a man."
-
- With that, he walked over and hugged me lighly and touched
- Jason's head as he returned to his seat.
-
- The evening passed quickly with me explaining the homosexual
- lifestyle to my parents, and with both Jason and myself detailing
- our plans for our life together. Many hours and several bottles
- of champagne later, Jason and I headed off to bed, happy,
- relieved, and at peace.
-
- We undressed in silence and took care of the bathroom
- things. We met back in the middle of the room in tshirts and
- shorts and hugged for a long moment, ending the hug in one of the
- most intense kisses of either of our lives. As our tongues
- sought and found each other in the warm confines of our joined
- mouths, a knock sounded at the door. I called out, "Come in!"
- while still wrapped in Jason's arms, and my mother came in with a
- smile.
-
- "I must admit, I've never seen two better looking young men
- in my life! You do look good together." She reached into her
- pocket and pulled something out, placing it in my hand. I looked
- down to find two condoms. I looked up at her questioningly, and
- she said, "You may needs these, and I want you to use them, got
- it?" she said, smiling.
-
- "Got it," I said, kissing her on the cheek. She left us and
- we giggled hysterically for several wonderful moments, ending in
- another wonderful kiss.
-
- Much later, when the condoms were used and gone, we curled
- up together in the big poster bed and slept soundly.
-
- THE END
-
- Note: I can finally admit, now that we have come to the end,
- that the chapters about Jason (9,20,21,22,23) are all true, for
- the most part. Conversations have been rebuilt from my somewhat
- scattered memory, but the places, descriptions and people are
- representative of real things and people.
-
- Jason and I have been together for some time now, and this will
- come as a shock to all of you that I have told I was lover-less.
- Sorry, but it was necessary to create the illusion.
-
- We had the same conversation with Jason's parents who also live
- in Atlanta, and now our parents have become good friends despite
- the incredible social level differences, etc.
-
- I hope you have enjoyed this series as much as I have. Jason is
- sitting over my shoulder at this very moment as I write, and I
- know that incredible sex will follow my mailing of this to all of
- you. I only hope that you experience some of the same love that
- I have both in your relationships and in coming out to your
- parents if you haven't or whatever. This life we live is not
- easy, but if we all stick together, we shall overcome!
