My First Christmas

Part 3

Eric Murphey

"What the Hell is the matter with you?" I ask Bo because he is racing around the bed.

I hear the knock on the door. I look and its 8.

"I guess you kept me up too late." I tell Bo.

I grab my robe and go let the boys in.

"We didn't wake you up did we?" Jake asks.

"Of course not." I tell them. Bo did but you woke him I think and keep to myself. I don't want to discourage them in any way of coming over.

Speaking of him I let him head outside. I like to let him be a free range dog when I'm not out with him. He likes his freedom. I get some coffee started and pour the boys some orange juice.

"I talked to your mom last night. She was pretty happy about the washer being fixed. I don't think you boys could have gotten anything better for her."

"That's what she said. She was real happy that's for sure." Jake tells me.

"Yeah she was. She was giggling the whole time she was putting up her clothes too." Kevin informs me.

"She was probably thinking of the extra time she will be able to spend with you two instead of having to go to the laundry mat. Just time at home with you two."

"That will be better." they agree.

"I was thinking some eggs, chicken apple sausage, and some toast for breakfast. Sound good to you guys?"
"Whats that sausage?" Kevin asks.

"Its good. If you don't like it I will eat it. Nothing will go to waste especially with the yellow tornado running around here. Speaking of which can one of you guys let him in."

I saw him at the back door through the glass.

Kevin races over to let him in as I am getting breakfast things ready.

"Alright boys here are my pans for the day. First I want to get the first two trees split so I can use it in the fireplace. So I will split the wood and you boys will stack it nice for me. Then I was thinking last night about a program I saw that helps boys and girls get presents for Christmas that wont get any unless people help. Seeing as how I have no idea what to get I need your help with that. I figure we can do it online and I can have it shipped here. Once it arrives you boys can help me deliver it."

"Yeah we can do that." Jake answers for them.

See I figured out how to find out what they like. I'm tricky like that. I am going to do the program and they are going to help. But they don't realize that half of the stuff will be for them. I should text their mother to make sure this is OK and she wont get mad at me for it. But they are such good boys I want to do something for them.

We have breakfast as I said and then go work on the wood. By the time I got the first tree done I realized something.

"Boys I realized something about this." I tell them

"Whats that?"
"That I'm old and this is hard work. I need to get one of those automatic splitters I think."

"You're not old." Kevin says.

"I'm not young. Lets go take a break guys. I think we are done with this task for the day." I tell them rubbing my shoulder.

One thing I know for sure is Bo had a great time racing around the boys as they were working. I think they have worn out that dog.

We head in after I put up the tools and I make me some coffee and the boys some hot chocolate.

We have all stripped our winter gear and are enjoying the warmth of being inside. I'm feeling happy and warm.

"I'm hot." Kevin says and strips off his sweatshirt leaving him bare chested. He then proceeds to remove his jeans and long underwear. Now he just has on his undies. Which are super cute and tight boxer briefs.

Jake doesn't say anything and is just shaking his head as he follows suit. So now I have two nearly naked boys in my house again.

"Your mom said you boys don't like wearing clothes much. I guess this is what she meant."
"Yeah clothes are stupid. Aren't you hot?" Kevin asks me his head to the side.

"No I'm not hot. I guess I'm old and need the clothes to keep me warm."
"Are you cold?" he asks.

"No, I am a little bit warm though." I take off my sweater and have on a t-shirt and I'm good with that. But I'm not striping down like they did. If I did they would see I have a hard on. I don't want them to freak out. I want them to keep coming back. I like them and not just because they are sexy little guys. I like them because they are nice little guys. I fold it up and take it to my room. I grab my laptop from my office and head back and sit at the table.

"Alright guys lets get some kids some presents. I figure we can start with girls."
"Girls? I don't know what girls want." Jake answers.

"I'm sure you hear the girls in your lass talking about things they like and want. Which is more than I know."
I open up a website and we start looking. Jake has pulled up a chair next to me and Kevin has taken a spot on my lap. I'm not sure how I feel about this. OK I know how I feel about it. I like it very much. But I question if I should allow it seeing as how I'm so attracted to him. Or I should say to them.

"Megan said she wanted one of those." Jake says pointing to the screen.

"How many you think we should get? Maybe six or so?"
"Gosh that's a lot of money." Jake says.

"Yes it is. But, I have decided to spend around a thousand dollars for this."
"Wow that's a lot." Kevin exclaims.

"It is to little boys. But a thousand dollars isn't that much anymore. When i was your age........OH boy I'm not going there. I sound like my grandpa now."

I reach up and rub my shoulder with one hand as I add six to the cart. For some reason they hurt like all get out. Maybe because I was an office worker my whole life and real work is foreign to me.

We find several other things for girls that they didn't know they knew and I keep rubbing my shoulders as I go along. Jake notices and gets behind me and starts rubbing them. I tell you what feeling his little fingers rub my shoulders is not only relaxing but exciting too.

We order a lot of boys toys after and I make sure that the ones they seem most excited about to make a mental note that they will get those gifts. Which I STILL need to get their mothers approval for. Some people are funny about things like that.

When we get done I spent a little bit more than I had thought But, its fine.

"Guys lets have some lunch. I'm thinking turkey sandwiches, some chips and carrot sticks. Hows that sound?"
I get nods of approval. I slip Kevin from my lap trying to touch every inch of him as I do. He is so soft and smooth. Just a beautiful boy inside and out. Jake is too for that matter.

I get up and get our lunch made. I get them some milk to drink and we have a nice lunch. I get out the remainder of the cookies and divide them up between us.

"Guys I don't have any more work today. But, you are more than welcome to stay and hang out. As a matter of fact I need to pay you boys for the last two days. I figure you have worked about ten hours or so each." I say pulling out my money clip and peel off five twenties for each boy.

"I don't think this is right." Jake says looking at his new found wealth in his hand.

"Let me think a second here. Yesterday we spent about 2 hours at the store. Then two hours of you boys hauling wood. Then you boys setting up the decorations was again about two hours. Then this morning about four hours with the wood and the shopping. So that's ten hours in my book."

I thinks about it a minute and shrugs. Kevin is shoving the money in his pocket on the pants he had dropped on the floor.

"If you want we can go shopping or watch TV. The chose is yours. Or if you want you can go home or go play."

"I want to stay here. What about you Jake."
"I like it here. What kind of movies do you have?"
"I can stream about anything you boys want to watch."
"Cool." Is the mutual response.

I sit in my chair. Now I'm not a big guy. I'm about 6 feet tall and weigh about 150 pounds. I don't use up the whole chair. However, I assumed that the boys would sit on the couch. I was wrong. m not upset by it int he least that Kevin is on my lap again and Jake is sitting next to me. I don't think my cock has been this hard for this long ever. I scroll through and we find a nice movie we all agree on and watch it, then another. Between movies we all take a bathroom break. My poor cock is happy its soft a minute I think. But, I'm certain that as soon as we start watching another movie that it will be hard again. I don't see how it cant be. Two wonderful nearly naked boys sitting with me. I'm not a saint for crying out loud. I'm not going to do anything or even attempt to. But I will enjoy it while it lasts. I'm certain I'm just a temporary fascination for them. Boys have many interests and old guys like me aren't usually high on the list of boys.

What was interesting to me while the boys each went to go pee the other told me of a git they wanted to get the other and asked if I would get it for them and they would give me the money for it when their brother wasn't around. i made them write it down so I don't get the wrong things. Those boys are caring for sure. Most boys would have a hundred dollars in their pockets and be thinking. What can I get for MEEEEEEE? Not what can I get for my brother to make him happy. I know I keep saying it. But its true. They are some good boys. When the movie ends I get up to make supper for us.

I decide simple is good. Hamburgers and fries it is after I make sure they like it. I get some buns from the freezer. I get them and use them rarely. So I just freeze them and then use them as I need them. I also get a bag of frozen fries from the freezer. I can make them myself sure. But these aren't that expensive and its easier. I like easier. I get the meat from the fridge and start making patties.

"I was looking for a Christmas movie to watch last night and I was lost, trying to figure out what to watch. What are you boys favorite ones?"
"The Grinch is my favorite for sure." Jake tells me.

"Yeah I like that one too. But Rudolph is my favorite." Kevin tells me.

"I will have to see if I can find those to watch later."
"Cool. You will like them both." I am assured by Jake.

I stop what I'm doing and look at both boys who are now sitting at the bar and watching me prepare supper.

"I know this sounds stupid. But can you teach me a Christmas song?"

"Sure." they answer in stereo.

"Make it simple I'm not too smart."
They giggle at my self degradation. Then they discuss it a few minutes. It is finally agreed Jingle Bells is easy to remember as well as Here Comes Santa Clause. So as I'm making supper they teach me two songs.

"You boys aren't wrong they are easy to remember."

"Are your parents still alive?" Kevin asks me out of the blue.

"I know my mother passed away. I don't know about my father."
"Why not?" he inquires.

"Lets just say that he wishes I had never been born and I wish he was never my father."
"Why?" he digs.

"He wasn't very nice to me. We will leave it at that."
"Cuz you were gay?"
"Kev he doesn't want to talk about it."
"That's part of it, and you are very right Jake I don't want to talk about bad memories. I am however, enjoying creating new happy memories with you two." I say and smile at them.

I get supper done and they help me get it out of our sight quickly. They do as yesterday and follow me and rinse their plate and put it in the dishwasher.

I take them home shortly after. I was sad to see them get dressed again. But one neat thing is they both gave me lots of hugs today. I enjoyed them not because they were nearly naked. But, simply because they were given to me from the heart. I wont say that patting their butts or running my hands up and down their smooth backs was a bad thing. But honestly its the first time I am remembering getting hugs. I think my mother did when I was little. But I'm not really sure that's true. I do know that I am loving getting them.

I get back home and think Tina is still at work and I can text her now about the gifts I want to get for the boys. I don't want to make her mad or feel bad because I can get her sons gifts and she cant afford a lot.

I pick up my phone and send her a text.

Call me when you have a minute and aren't around the boys.

I start watching Rudolph like Kevin suggested. I'm halfway done with it and my phone rings. I pause it and answer.

"Tina I'm glad you have a minute. I was wanting to ask you if it would be alright if I got the boys some gifts for Christmas. I don't know how these things work. But I wanted to make sure its OK with you before I do anything like that."
"The boys said you haven't ever had a Christmas before."
"I haven't and they are making it fun. I had them pick out some gifts for the toy giveaway the county is doing and I have a pretty good idea what they want."

"So long as you don't buy them new bikes I'm good with whatever you get them."
"You don't want them to have bikes?"
"No, that's what I have been saving to get for them."
"Oh cool. They will love that."
"I know they will."
"I noticed you just have a little car. DO you want me to go pick them up for you? If you want I can even hide them in my shed so the boys have no clue and bring them down late Christmas eve."
"Oh that would be a huge help. I was trying to figure out how to do it myself. I had pretty much decided two trips is what I would have to do."
"That would have worked. But I got a big truck I'm sure they will both fit it easily enough."
"I got them dirt bikes. I figured with all the woods it would be best for them."
I start laughing.

"I can make some trails for them."
She is chuckling.

"I'm sure they would love it."

"It might be fun to create them. It might give me a reason to buy a drone. I have wanted one but saw no reason for it. Now I got a reason." I say chuckling.

I can hear her roll her eyes at me. But in a good way.

"Aren't they kind of expensive?"
"I don't really know. I think its like anything else you can go cheap to super expensive. I will probably go mid grade. I don't think I want to spend more than like a hundred dollars on one. But if I like it maybe down the road I will get a nicer one. So when would you want me to pick up the bikes?"
"I'm off the day after tomorrow. So I can get you the money then. If that's OK?"
"I trust you. If you want I can go get them tomorrow and save you a few dollars and put them together for you too."
"I couldn't ask you to do that. Besides its only $20 to put it together."
"Times two is $40 and I got nothing but time on my hands. I figure if you have the day off the boys will be with you and what else am I going to do?"
"Are you sure you don't mind?"
"How about its my Christmas gift to you. That way you can use that $40 and get something you want for yourself."
"OK I can live with that. Ill text over the information on the bikes for you."

"Sounds good to me. Oh we were both wrong about their apparel."
"Hows that?"
"Well, you said they would be naked. I said they wouldn't because its so cold. But, we were both wrong. We got in for lunch and Kevin told me he was hot and proceeded to strip to his undies. I guess since I didn't get upset Jake decided to join him. So they weren't naked and its still winter."
"Give them time. I'm sure they are at home now naked as the day they were born. Their dad was the same way."
"I guess its my upbringing. I cant do it sitting at home by myself. But I don't really what other people do."
"You don't have a problem with it then."
"Not at all. I just want to let you know so you don't think I have ill intentions towards your sons."

"I don't think that at all. You were all they could talk about last night."
"They were all I could think about too. I guess its kind of weird to me. But, I'm thinking of them as my little friends."
"Its not strange. Its nice. They need a man to look up to. From everything we have talked about and they have told me. It sounds like you are a good man to help them along the path of learning to be good adults."

"I hope you're right."
"I'm a good judge of character. I'm rarely wrong about people."
"Wish I had that gift."
"Its just after my life you just learn to see things others don't I suppose. I need to go. Some people just came in."
"Have a good night. I will look forward to the text about the bikes."
"Thanks again for that. Seems I'm always thanking you."
"Don't worry about it. Your a single mom. You got a hard job. Only seems right to help when I can. I'm sure we will talk again soon."
"I've no doubt. Have a good night Randy."
"You too Tina."
when I end the call Bo starts signaling he needs to go out. I decide to go with him. I want to walk around the property a little with him. I wont be able to see much seeing as how its dark. But I can get some ideas on trails.

I get my winter apparel on and we head out. I let him run free and I stroll along and look at the creek where I soaked us. I think about the bridge I want to build. I also start thinking about the wood I need to split, that I now have no desire to do. That was hard work. I figured it would be. But not as hard as all of that. But I also want to be able to pay the boys some more money. HM a bridge built now maybe? I will have to think on that one. I am certainly getting a log splitter. One that's not me anyway.

I walk around with Bo an hour or so. I like spending time outside in the winter more than the summer. I know you think I'm crazy. But int eh winter no bugs are trying to eat me. See I make a little sense now. You just thought I was crazy. I might be but not for that.

I head back towards the house Bo beats me to the door. I open in and he races in. Dogs and children have two speeds I think. Full blast and sleep.

I sit down and finish the movie and start the Grinch. I have to admit when it was over I was glad I asked them. Because these were certainly better and more fun to watch.

I watch a regular movie after that and then go take a shower and head to bed. I do however set my alarm for 7. I don't want to be asleep when they show up in the morning. Its weird they are brand new to my life but they are all I can think about. Especially the hugs. Sleep comes easily and I slumber until the alarm rings.
