Chapter 22 - Many Distractions



After class ended on Monday, Braedon came up to speak with me.  "That was way better than I thought it would be.  Did you like what you saw?" 

"I'm glad you enjoyed it, and yes, I did.  Did you like what you saw?"

"Oh, yeah.  It was way cool.  I liked what Nigel and Rory showed me too." 

"Yes, it was very nice of them to do that for you." 

"I can't wait for next Sunday now, and I'm glad you talked the other boys into lettin' me do this with you."

"I'm glad I did too.  By the way, did your parents ask you anything about it when you got home?" 

"They just wanted to know if I'd had a good time, and I told them it was a blast.  They already said I could go again next Sunday, but I think my dad would've freaked out if he knew that we all changed and showered together."

"Then I hope he never finds out, but I'm glad they're going to let you join us again."

"Yeah, me too."

Braedon merely smiled at me the next day in class, but that was enough to let me know that nothing had changed.  He was still riding his high from Sunday and looking forward to our next outing. 

Later, I was looking forward to rehearsing all of Act One with the kids, and when I got there after my last class ended, Tucker pulled me aside again.  "Braedon really liked being with us on Sunday.  He said he really liked your dick, and he thought what Nigel and Rory showed him was interesting too." 

"I know.  He told me the same thing."

"I really like him a lot and I'm glad you asked him to join us."

Once that had been cleared up, we started rehearsal, and the kids did much better this time.  Things were really coming together, and we still had another month to work out the kinks before doing it in front of an audience.  Bob Krivyanik's group had finished the sets and most of the other set pieces, so we started using them as well, along with the other props.  This gave Wayne, Brian, and their crews a chance to get used to dealing with the various items, and although it was a slow process for now, I was convinced they would improve over time.

Nothing else of interest happened until Thursday, when we practiced all of Act Two.  It went just as well again, and before we finished I managed to remind all of the boys that we were meeting the next day after school. 

"I'm glad, cuz I really need it," Gary said when I told him. 

"I'm glad you reminded me, cuz I forgot which day we were gonna meet this time," Will responded when I told him. 

"Then I hope you don't forget before tomorrow."

"Oh, I won't."

On Friday, Braedon made sure to speak to me before he left class.  "I can't wait to see you again on Sunday," he said before giggling. 

"And I can't wait to see you again either."  He grinned and then took off for his next class.  This was obviously very important to him, so I was glad I'd been able to include him in our little group. 

Since the boys were coming over after school today, I rushed out of the building after my last class ended.  Even though I knew it would be about an hour before they got here, I wanted to be ready when they arrived.  I even stopped at the grocery store on the way there so I could pick up some snacks, because I remembered they were hungry the last time they showed up a Friday.  They hadn't taken time to grab anything at home because they were in a hurry to get here, and since they're teenagers, it proved to be a long time since they'd eaten their school lunch.  Therefore, I picked up a dozen apple fritters and a galloon of milk, figuring that would take the edge off their grumbling bellies. 

When the boys showed up, they were grateful that I'd done this for them and didn't complain that we weren't getting started right away.  They began taking their clothes off before they were done, though, because they were still eager to get started.  They were all totally naked by the time I'd finished my snack, and they began urging me to hurry up too. 

Since they were in such a big hurry to get started, they didn't want to take time to watch me fuck Gary, even though they wanted to see if I could make him cum.  Instead, they decided to arrange themselves so they could watch us at the same time, so they lined up side-by-side at the head of the bed, so they were facing us.  I put a towel down along the foot of the bed, had Gary get on it, and then I got into position behind him, as we all started fucking our partners. 

The other two had already cum and they'd even switched places, but I was still plowing in and out of Gary.  By the time I filled the condom with my ejaculate, the boys were indicating they wanted to tell me something.  "I think he cummed too," Will stated.  "There's a string of something hanging from his dick." 

I asked Gary to remain as he was so I could check it out.  "I think it's just that he produced a lot more pre-seminal fluids this time, but I don't think it's semen." 

"Huh?" Jon and Tucker both responded about the same time. 

"He means it's pre-cum, not cum," Will explained using the terms they were more familiar with. 

"He just means that Gary didn't cum either," Nolan added. 

Since Gary hadn't gotten off yet, he and I switched places so he could fuck me.  Seeing he was already so worked up, it didn't take him very long to get off, and he was quickly filling his condom with his own boy spunk. 

"I thought you were wrong when you said I didn't cum, but I just felt the difference between cumming and what happened while you were fuckin' me.  That had felt really good and made me tingle inside too, but it was different than when I cummed."

"I'm glad you understand and you aren't disappointed.  Will's prostate must be a lot more sensitive than yours or Nolan's, so that must be why it happened to him when we're together." 

"Yeah, I'm ok," Gary confirmed, "but I kinda wish it had happened to me too." 

"Yes, but as I told Nolan, it doesn't happen for everyone."

We quickly cleaned up and got dressed again, but the boys didn't leave right away.  They wanted to chat some more, but I suggested we could do that after we put our clothes on, in case someone else showed up at the door.  They understood what I meant and agreed with my request, so now we got comfortable and I prepared to answer their questions. 

"Have you decided whether you're gonna let Braedon join us?" Gary asked.

"I want to hold off a while longer before I make that decision.  >From what Braedon has told me, I'm afraid his father might get curious and try to check up on Braedon if he was gone too often." 

"So you think he might be a problem?" Nolan followed. 

"Braedon's father might be, not Braedon.  I feel badly that in a way I'm punishing him because of his dad by not asking him to come here with the rest of you.  I'm sure he'd benefit greatly from doing this, but I just don't want to take the chance." 

"What if me and Jon start asking Braedon to hang out with us on the weekend when we're not here with you?  Do you think his father would get used to him doing that and then not check up on him if we start bringing him over here?" 

"That's possible, and I'm sure Braedon would enjoy spending more time with you two, so it can't hurt to try.  If you do that, then we can see how his father reacts and if he checks up on Braedon, so don't do anything that would indicate to his father that you boys were gay.  According to Braedon, his dad is quite homophobic." 

"Ok.  Maybe we'll just invite him over to play video games or ride our bikes.  I'm sure we can find other things to do too." 

"Maybe we should ask him to join the drama club," Jon offered. 

"We could, but I'm not sure how his father might react to that.  If he's one of those guys who think most people involved in the theater are gay, then he might not allow it.  On the other hand, maybe he only thinks the gays are active in musical theater.  If that's the case, he probably wouldn't want Braedon to be involved in Oliver!"

"I'll ask Braedon what he thinks about doing it," Tucker offered.  "I'll also ask him if he thinks his father will let him join." 

"Don't ask him specifically about his father, though.  Just ask him if he thinks his parents would let him join the drama club.  I don't want him to know that I've mentioned some of these things about his father to you boys.  Even though it was only so we can help him, I'm just worried it might upset him." 

"Ok, I'll do that then." 

"The rest of us could do stuff like that with him too," Will suggested.  "Maybe if he's with us most of the time, then his parents won't notice if he comes here with us too."

"That's possible, so you can start asking him to come spend time with you, but don't do it in front of others.  I don't want to expose our little group to scrutiny." 

"Ok, we can do that too," Will agreed. 

"Maybe we can ask him about some of it when he comes swimmin' with us on Sunday." 

"Ok, that might work.  Just don't do it in front of Nigel and Rory either.  I know they've been good about explaining the difference in their penises to each of you, but before they did that, they seemed to be worried that you guys were gay too." 

"Yeah, you're probably right," Gary said.  "They tell a lot of gay jokes, and some are kinda disgusting."

"Then just be careful when you do this, plus I'm not sure if you're ready for your parents to know about you either."

"I don't think mine would be upset if they knew, but I'm not ready to tell them yet," Nolan admitted. 

"Me too," Will added. 

"I'm not sure how my parents would react, but I don't want them to find out either," Gary chipped in. 

"I'm kinda like Gary," Tucker followed. 

"Me too," Jon agreed, ending our discussion. 

The boys then got ready to leave, but Will had a question he wanted me to answer first.  "When are we gonna do this again?"

"Not this Sunday, but the following Sunday after swimming." 

"Damn, that's over a week away!" he snapped back. 

"I know, but we have to be careful, so we can only meet once a week.  Sometimes it will be less than a week in between, and sometimes it will be a little longer than a week, but we'll have to do that for now." 

"I guess it means I'll be jerking off a lot more," Gary groaned.

"Yeah," the others all agreed. 

I then said goodbye to the boys and sent them on their way.  Even though I hadn't been overly sympathetic to their problem, it was just as hard on me.  I wished we could get together every day, not just once a week, although it didn't mean we'd have to do anything sexual each time.  I just liked being with them.  The sex was a bonus, and of course I enjoyed it too, especially now that the boys wanted me to fuck them as well.  I was becoming more and more serious about finding a new place to live as each day passed, but I wouldn't be able to sign a rental agreement until June 1st, since my current lease didn't expire until May 31st

The rest of the night was kind of a blur after that, because my mind kept leaping from thinking about the boys, getting a new apartment, Braedon, Braedon's father, and seeing Devin and Hunter at the Y the following day.  I was mentally exhausted by the time I went to bed, so I hoped I'd be refreshed enough to workout in the morning. 

I woke up feeling much better, and was anxious to get to the Y.  After I downed a quick breakfast, I grabbed my gym back and headed out to the car.  Of course the other two boys were waiting for me when I got there, but once again they hadn't bothered to change first.  They took lockers in the same area where I usually changed, and then we all started to undress as we carried on with the typical small talk. 

They were confusing me more and more.  I still didn't think either one was gay, but they had waited for me, so it seemed as if they wanted me to see them getting undressed.  Did they know I was gay and this was just their way of thanking me for letting them workout with me?  I wasn't sure, but I hoped not.  If they had figured out that I was gay, how many others might have come to the same conclusion? 

We went out and followed the same workout routine as the previous week, except I added another set in the middle, and when we finished the boys made a comment.  "It didn't seem as bad today, at least not until you had us swim another set of laps like the second set," Hunter acknowledged as soon as we took our final break. 

"Yeah, I think we kept up with you better until then, but then we started to fall behind," Devin confirmed. 

"It will seem to become easier as you get in better shape." 

"Yeah, we know, and that's why we want to do this with you.  It will help us get in better shape for lacrosse, and that will help us do better than the other guys," Hunter confirmed. 

We got out of the pool and went in to shower together again.  I'm not sure if it was my imagination, but both boys seemed to go out of their way to always be facing me when they showered, rather than facing the wall and the shower nozzle.  They always selected a spot across from me too, which put them on full display for me, but maybe it was just that they were comfortable showering with others.  Or was there a chance that I'd been mistaken and these two weren't quite as straight as I first thought?" 

When we finished washing off, we went out, got dressed, and prepared to leave.  "Bye, Mr. Roberson.  We really enjoy doing this with you," Hunter stated before taking off. 

"Yeah, we're glad your such a nice guy and let us do this with you," Devin added. 

"Hey, it's no big deal, because you don't affect what I normally do, and I enjoy your company."  They both smiled after hearing my last statement.

As I was driving back to my apartment, my head was spinning.  I couldn't make heads or tails about what was going on with them.  Was I misreading the entire situation, or was I doing the right thing by reading between the lines?  I wasn't sure if I'd be able to figure this out either, but I'd enjoy the show while it lasted.  I had to admit that I appreciated the fact that they were giving me total visual access to their bodies, which became even more evident after I finished eating lunch.  Since I'd been thinking about those two boys during the entire time, I became aroused and had to masturbate afterward, or I'd have ended up walking around with an erection for the rest of the day. 

Once that problem had been taken care of, I worked on my lesson plans for the following week, and I was able to get most of it done before thoughts of swimming with the boys the following day began to flood my brain.  It still baffled me how images of a bunch of naked teenage boys could so totally distract me from everything else.  Once again, I was unable to concentrate on what I was doing, as visions of the boys completely overwhelmed my thoughts and left me incapable of finishing what I'd been doing.  Reluctantly, I put everything away and planned on finishing up after I'd enjoyed a temporary 'fix' from my addiction by swimming with the boys and seeing them all naked one more time. 

Since I was highly aroused again, I opted to masturbate before turning in.  That should be enough to prevent another late night accident and keep me from having to do a quick clean up before going to meet the boys.  After successfully taking the situation in hand and flushing the evidence down the toilet, I went through my nightly ritual, crawled under the covers, and fell asleep. 

When I got up in the morning, I puttered around doing a bunch of things that didn't require a lot of thought, until it got closer to the time for me to leave.  That's when I grabbed my swimsuit and towel and tossed them into the gym bag.  Then, I went out to my car and drove to the Y. 

I was actually experiencing a slight case of butterflies as I walked back to the locker room, knowing I was going to see Braedon again.  I figured he was affecting me more than the others because I saw the rest of the boys naked quite frequently, as well as doing other things with them.  Braedon, on the other hand, was new to the group and I'd only seen him naked a couple of times so far.  I guess it was the novelty that accounted for these unusual feelings, or was is that I was already thinking ahead to having him join the others when they came to my place?  Was I already thinking about having sex with him? 

I was sitting on the bench with these thoughts still bouncing around in my head when the boys came bursting into the locker room.  They were laughing and joking around as they came walking back to where I was waiting for them. 

"Guess what, Mr. Roberson," Braedon began without saying hello first.  "These guys want me to do stuff with them besides just comin' here to swim." 

"That's great, and I knew you boys would get along.  Do you think you're parents will let you do that?" 

"Yeah, I think they will, but they'll be surprised too.  I don't usually go to other people's houses, but I think it will be alright.  I'll just tell my mom and dad that I'm goin' over to be with the guys I go swimmin' with, and I think they'll be happy that I've made some friends." 

"That's great, and I'm sure you boys will have a great time together." 

He was changing while he was telling me this, and as soon as he removed his underwear, he just stood there and made sure I got a good look.  When I winked at him and nodded in approval, he got a huge grin on his face before finally grabbing his swimsuit and putting it on. 

Once everyone was ready, we headed out to the pool and ended up doing pretty much the same things as always, but then the boys wanted to race.  There had been another guy in the pool when we first got there, so I made the boys wait until after he left before I'd let them start.  There were too many of us to race at the same time, so Rory, Gary, and Nolan decided to challenge me.  They made me promise that I would try my hardest and not just let them win, so I told them I'd do my best.  Once they were satisfied, we agreed to swim to the other end of the pool and back again, so the other boys could determine the winner.

Seeing I was used to doing this, since it was what I did every Saturday when I worked out, the boys didn't stand a chance.  They didn't do badly, though, but they were more than a body length behind me when the race ended.  The other boys said those three all came in about the same time, so we declared they'd all finished in second place.  Once we were done, the other four went next, and Nigel beat them by about a half a body length.  We didn't swim any more after that, because the other boys got discouraged when Nigel told them Rory was always a better swimmer than he was.  I think Jon, Tucker, Braedon, and Will realized they wouldn't stand a chance against the rest of us and decided to call it quits. 

We horsed around for a while longer, and then we headed to the locker room to shower and change.  I noticed that Braedon made sure to take the shower next to the one I was using and kept turning toward me.  I wasn't sure if he was checking me out, or if he wanted to give me a good look at his body again, but he was always smiling whenever I looked in his direction. 

After we finished up, we dried off and changed, and I said goodbye to all of the boys before I left.  At one point I thought Braedon was going to give me a hug, but then he thought about what he was going to do and changed his mind.  I don't think he was ready to do it in front of the others, for fear that they might make fun of him.  I was just happy that he hadn't done anything like that in front of Nigel and Rory. 

I couldn't stop thinking about Braedon for the rest of the day.  Was he merely grateful that I was the one who'd set this up for him, or was there more involved?  Did he have a crush on me like Tucker and Jon had, although they might be over it already?  I was beginning to think his gratitude for introducing him to the boys and helping him make friends might have morphed into something else, but for now I'd just take it that he was being friendly. 

After thinking about that for a while, I was able to finish up my lesson plans so I was ready to start the new week.  The drama club would be doing exactly what we did the week before, practicing Act One on Monday and Act Two on Thursday, so there was nothing special I would have to do to get ready for that either. 

Now that everything was done, I was able to relax for the rest of the night.  I got online and did a little research that I'd been putting off, and by the time I finished I noticed it was time to turn in.  I didn't want to face the kids when I was tired, so I rushed through my nightly routine and jumped into bed. 

I was in my classroom the next morning, getting ready for the day, when Tucker came rushing in.  "Whoa!  Slow down.  What are you doing here already?" 

"I wanted to tell you somethin' and I didn't want to wait until I saw you at rehearsal later.  Me and Braedon was talkin' after we got back from swimmin' yesterday, and he told me somethin' I thought you should know." 

"Really?  What in the world could be that important?" 

"He was telling me how he really liked you, but then he said he thought you liked lookin' at him when he was naked.  After that, he asked if I thought you might do stuff with him.  When I asked what he meant by that, he said he wanted to know if you might like to play with his cock and do other stuff with him." 

"What did you say when he asked you that?" 

"I told him I didn't know, but you were a really nice guy." 

"I had a feeling he liked me, but I didn't realize he was thinking about doing other stuff with me too." 

"Yeah, do you think we should let him start comin' with us from now on?" 

"No, not yet.  Not until we see how his parents react to him spending time with you boys.  I want to see if they let him do it without checking up on him to see what he's up to." 

"Then will you let him start comin' with us?" 

"Not just yet.  If he's able to spend time with you boys and his parents don't complain, I may have you bring him over here one day, kind of like you did with Jon.  I think I should talk to Braedon about what he has in mind first, so I could see exactly what he's after.  If he has the right attitude about it and doesn't just want me for himself, I might do something with the two of you for a while first, until he gets used to it and catches up to you and Jon." 

"So I'd get to do it twice a week again?" 

"Yes, I guess you would, but you'd only be able to do the same things I'm doing with Braedon.  I don't want you to tell the others if we do that, though, because they'd be upset that you were the only one able to do it." 

"K, but when do you think we'll be able to do it?" 

"Are you and Braedon getting together during the week too?" 

"We haven't done it yet, but we're gonna do it tomorrow." 

"Well, let me know what you boys decide.  I won't do anything like that for a few weeks, though, because I want to make sure his parents aren't checking up on him first.  Did you say anything to him about joining the drama club?" 

"Not yet, but I will.  He's comin' over to my house tomorrow after school." 

"Ok, then I'll see you at rehearsal later." 

Fortunately, we were able to get that out of the way before school started, because somehow he'd been allowed into the school early to come see me.  I wasn't sure if he'd snuck in or had convinced one of the teachers or school security that he needed to talk to me before school started, but we'd done it all before the rest of the students were allowed in.  Now, I'd have something else to think about in between classes.
