Mr. Hsu's question caught Henry off guard, and the shock soon turned into deep embarrassment. He didn't know how to answer.
Mr. Hsu could see Henry's uneasiness. He said soothingly, "Don't need to be embarrassed. This boy is very talented. Though I'm not his album producer, I've noticed him for a long time. I was wondering about who that boy actually was when I first saw your 'cousin' today, and when he started to sing I was 100 percent sure that he is Jay Feng. You have to know that, now everyone knows that he is missing! Though the news was hidden for a few days, it is still being reported today."
"Everyone knows about his missing now?" another shock for Henry, who started to sweat.
"Now tell me, why is he with you?"
Mr. Hsu's sober attitude made Henry calm a bit. After taking a sip of his tea, Henry started to explain briefly about how Jay sneaked into his van and begged him to take him home. He also described Jay's feeling tired and lonely, his listening to Bob's criticism and their talk the night before. Of course Henry avoided mentioning his having sex with Jay.
Mr. Hsu nodded approvingly.
"Bob's criticism hit the nail on the head," Mr. Hsu said, taking another sip of his tea. "This boy is entering his rebellious streak, and his mother and Wayne have restrained him too much. He won't accept it if we tell him the same thing. However, he trusts you very much now. Because of that, Bob's criticism and your advice will be very good for him, and I believe that he will accept and think about what he has learned. Oh, by the way, Wayne came here and talked about this yesterday."
"Wayne?" Henry recalled that Jay had mentioned that name. "Oh, Jay's agent?"
Mr. Hsu nodded again.
"Wayne denied Jay's missing to the public, saying that Jay just caught a cold and was resting at home so that it would not affect his concert this Saturday. However, Wayne was actually very, very nervous. Yesterday he came here to ask me if I had heard anything about Jay's whereabouts. I reproved him seriously for controlling Jay so tightly. Two consecutive concerts in 9 days! How can a 12-year-old boy manage that kind of demand for himself? However, I'm also very worried that if Jay stays missing, even leading to the failure of his concert, he will get into very serious trouble. I never would have expected that you would bring him here today."
"Jay seems to be ready to go back," said Henry. "I just want to accompany him the whole day today, to let him relax more, and send him back tomorrow. However, he may still be somewhat scared, and I don't know how to explain all of these things to his parents either."
"Well, let me talk with his parents. Then I'll tell them to take Jay back tomorrow morning, before you go to work. Is that okay for you?"
"Yeah, that may be the best," Henry said, a bit reluctantly.
"You have a crush on this boy, don't you?" Mr. Hsu asked suddenly.
Again another question which floored Henry. He felt that his head was swelling. "Well... no... uh... I..."
"Come on, I could see it clearly," laughed Mr. Hsu. "I didn't select `It's Destined' out of nowhere, okay? At that time I was just wondering that, if that boy was really Jay Feng, and he would like to come here with you, there might be a special connection between you two. I decided to give it a try, and when I saw your looks to him while you were giving the narrative part in the beginning, I knew I hit my target. I was sure that's why you sang that song so well."
Henry felt that his face was all hot. He couldn't say anything.
"This boy has a special charm. He can let everyone have a crush on him and love him, even just at a glance. That is the most important condition to be a super star, and only very, very few people can have such charm," Mr. Hsu said. "However, I can tell you, this boy has also taken to you, a lot. It means that you handled the whole thing very well. You released this boy's pressure appropriately. You gave him full vent to his emotions and feelings. That would be very good for him."
Handled the whole thing very well? Henry thought of the night before, when they both totally lost their control. He didn't know what Mr. Hsu would say if Mr. Hsu knew that he had sex with Jay.
"By the way, your voices harmonized so well that it is beyond my expectation. I really hope that you can remember the feeling you found today. If you can handle the skill of expressing your emotions and thoughts when singing, you can be very promising. I can give you more chances to perform here."
Jay was happy all the way back to Henry's place. He hummed the songs he sang in the pub. However, Henry was a bit down. Mr. Hsu pricked the bubble directly by saying that he had a crush on Jay. Henry knew that was true. No, that was not true. Henry felt that he didn't have a crush on Jay. He had actually fallen in love with Jay. So when he thought about Jay leaving him the next day, he felt depressed.
However, he was still bothered by his losing control and having sex with Jay the night before. He still had some sense of guilt. He totally suspected his own ability of self-control. Maybe Jay's leaving him was good for both Jay and him. He couldn't say if he would become the "malicious person" he mentioned to Jay.
So many conflicted thoughts were running in Henry's mind that he could not concentrate on riding his motorcycle. But he didn't want to destroy Jay's good mood, so he put on an air of cheerfulness and kept chatting with Jay.
They had dinner together, then went back to Henry's apartment. Jay pulled on Henry's hands.
"Take a shower with me, okay?" asked Jay.
Henry forced himself to smile. "The bathroom is too small. You go take your shower first."
Jay looked at Henry, and then he asked carefully, "What's up, Henry? I feel that you are a bit strange after leaving the pub."
Henry smiled distractedly. "Nothing. I'm just a bit reluctant to let you go back."
Jay's good mood was instantly destroyed, inevitably. He hung his head. "I know. But I really don't want to go back."
Henry wrapped his hands around Jay's shoulders.
"Listen to me. Mr. Hsu told me in his office that ... he knows who you actually are."
"He knows who I am?" Jay raised his head surprised. "Did you tell him?"
Henry shook his head. "Mr. Hsu said that he'd suspected it when he saw you for the first time this afternoon. When you started to sing he was 100 percent sure that you are Jay Feng. I talked with him about your condition. He said that he will have a talk with your parents. He also told me that he reproved your agent seriously, asking them not to constrain and force you so tightly. He'll tell your parents to come here and take you back early tomorrow morning, before I go to work."
Jay hung his head again and bit his lips.
"Mr. Hsu also said that there are already news reports saying that you were missing after your last concert. Your agent denied it to the public, saying that you just caught a cold and were resting at home. No matter what, if you don't go back and you miss your concert, you'll get into very serious trouble."
Jay hugged Henry and buried his head into Henry's chest. He said in a low voice, "I know."
Should I tell him that I fell in love with him? Henry started to struggle. However, Henry knew that if he didn't say it, he might not have any chance to say it after that evening. So he screwed up his courage.
"And... and..." Henry said, still a bit stammered. "And Mr. Hsu said that, he could clearly see that... that... I... I have a crush on you."
Jay raised his head and looked at Henry. "Really?"
Henry blushed. He nodded. "He also said that you like me too. Is that true?"
Jay blushed too. He buried his head into Henry's chest again. "Yes. I like you very much. You make me so happy. You treat me so nice. Others are so false. They treat me nice just because I'm a star."
"I wouldn't say that," said Henry. "That's because you are too charming. You made me lose my control last night. I'm also afraid that I will become the malicious person I warned you about and hurt you."
Jay shook his head. "No, I felt very happy and wonderful last night. Don't you like to play with me like that?"
Henry found that it was so difficult to say no. "Yes, I like it. A lot. I'm just afraid that it would hurt you and make you uncomfortable."
"No, no, no! It won't hurt me!" Jay seemed to be a bit upset.
"Okay, okay, it won't hurt you. Don't be mad, okay?"
"Then, this is our last chance together, this evening. Take a shower with me, and sleep with me. Okay?"
Looking at Jay's pleading eyes, Henry's struggle and self-control crashed again. He found that he didn't want to deny anything of this wonderful boy, at all. He nodded, almost without thinking.
Jay became happy again. He released Henry and started to take off all his clothes. Then he pulled Henry's hands. "Come on! Hurry up!"
Henry smiled. He took off his clothes too. They both walked into the bathroom.
Henry turned on the faucet. Suddenly a lot of cold water hit Jay's head. Jay exclaimed and giggled, and he hid behind Henry. Henry laughed. He took the shower nozzle down and started to rinse their bodies. Then he turned off the faucet and turned around to see Jay. Jay raised his head and looked at Henry too.
Henry wiped the water from Jay's face. He looked at the young, smiling face. Very naturally, he kissed Jay's lips and cheeks lightly.
"I'm really happy to know that you like me too," said Henry.
Jay blushed again.
Henry took the soap and used it to wash all over Jay's body. He used his hands to tickle Jay's neck. Jay giggled.
"It tickles."
Henry smiled and kept rubbing Jay's chest and his two little, pink nipples with the soap. Then he moved the soap to Jay's belly. He started to tickle Jay's waist hard.
"Hey! Stop! Don't do that, Henry!" Jay laughed so hard and tried to dodge Henry's attack. Henry kept tickling Jay, then he stopped and embraced Jay from his rear.
Henry's erect penis pushed against Jay's cleft between his two little hills. Jay's peach was much smoother than Henry expected. Henry used his soapy hands to feel the young, smooth skin and elastic feeling of Jay's ass. Then he moved his hands to Jay's crotch. Jay laughed.
"Why do you laugh?" asked Henry.
"Oh, I just recalled that morning. You didn't know if you should wipe my dick or not. That's so funny," Jay laughed.
"Then, will you let me clean you there for you now?" asked Henry slightly.
Jay nodded immediately. Henry laughed. He started to soap Jay's crotch, penis and ball sac. At the same time, he kissed Jay's cheeks lightly.
Jay turned his head a bit to Henry, and kissed Henry's lips too. Henry kept rubbing Jay's penis.
"Uh... yeah, Henry, just like that. I really like the feeling..."
Henry was encouraged. He put the soap on the shelf and touched the young boy's body with his own body. His one hand kept rubbing the boy's dick, and another hand went on wandering all over the boy's smooth body. He played with the boy's little nipples, then touched his thighs. His hands felt the boy's skin; the special smooth and elastic feeling that only belonged to a kid. His own iron stick kept rubbing up and down in the cleft of the young boy's small hills.
Jay closed his eyes. He seemed to enjoy the feelings very much. Fondling for a while, Henry turned Jay around and hugged him again. Jay opened his eyes and smiled shyly.
"It's so wonderful. I like you to touch me like that," whispered Jay.
Henry smiled. He embraced Jay and lowered his head. His lips met the young boy's.
Henry had never kissed anyone deeply. However, it might be an instinct. Henry didn't feel that it was difficult at all. He felt that the boy in front of him was not only God's gift to all females, but also his best gift from God. He kissed the young boy deeply.
Henry didn't know how long they kissed. He just felt time pass on. He didn't want to stop it, however he finally released Jay. Jay had been blushing deeply. Henry looked at the young boy's penis, which had become fully erect and touched his own.
"Well, yours is not small either," Henry giggled and said.
Henry held Jay's penis and started to rub back and forth slightly. The head of Jay's penis was partly visible and gleaming. Henry couldn't help but squat down to kiss it. Jay felt a special feeling running through all his body, as if he got an electric shock. He shivered and moaned.
"Uh... Henry, that feeling is so special..."
"Really? Do you like it?"
"Yes, yes. It's so special and wonderful," Jay nodded violently.
Henry had never kissed anyone's dick before. He didn't expect that kissing the boy's little dick would make him react so violently. He stood up and turned on the faucet again, and rinsed all the bubbles off their bodies. Then he turned off the water, squatted again, pushed Jay's foreskin back, and kissed the head of Jay's penis again.
"O-h-h-h-h..."
Listening to Jay's moans, Henry felt encouraged. He kept licking and kissing the boy's little penis and its head. Jay started to have an exciting feeling, even stronger than the night before, overwhelming his small body. His muscles started to be tense again. His hands grabbed Henry's head.
"Oh... uh... Henry... the feeling... uh..."
Henry didn't stop his actions. He was also more and more excited listening to Jay's moans. Finally, the iron stick in his mouth twitched several times, followed by a deep sigh. Jay seemed to lose all his strength. Henry stood up to support Jay's body. Jay was gasping.
"Are you okay?" asked Henry.
"Okay? I feel so wonderful! I've never had such wonderful feelings before."
"Really? I didn't expect that you would feel so good."
"Do you want to try it?"
Before Henry could answer, Jay had squatted down and held his semi-hard penis. Jay rubbed it slightly and Henry's penis soon stood up again. Then Jay started to lick the head of Henry's penis with his tongue.
Soon Henry felt an electric shock. Jay kept licking and kissing the man's shaft.
"Oh... really... I... I've never experienced this before..."
Jay continued his blow job. Henry felt that he needed to use all of his strength to avoid screaming! However, Jay's warm lips and tongue kept stimulating Henry, as Henry was getting more and more excited. His body was tense. He didn't dare grab Jay's head, so he grabbed his own cheeks behind him tightly.
"Oh... God... Oh..."
Finally, Henry couldn't control himself anymore. He growled, pulled his shaft out of the boy's mouth and started to shoot his white liquid out. Soon Jay's face and chest were again full of Henry's semen.
"Oh, my God..." Henry gasped. "I didn't expect that you could give me such... such... such a special feeling..."
Jay stood up and smiled at Henry. Henry tried to regain his own breath, then he wiped the semen from Jay's face, and embraced Jay tightly.
"Thank you, Jay, you made me feel so good..." whispered Henry.
"Me too..." Jay buried his head into Henry's chest. "The feeling was even better than last night..."
Henry released Jay and raised his head. He kissed Jay deeply again. Jay closed his eyes and wrapped Henry's neck with his hands. He enjoyed Henry's kiss.
Henry lay on the bed in the nude, and Jay laid his head on Henry's arm. After taking showers, they just hugged and kissed each other on the bed. Henry totally got rid of the sense of guilt. He decided to enjoy their last evening. He kissed every inch of Jay's skin. Jay enjoyed Henry's touching and kisses very much.
"Thank you, Jay," said Henry. "I will never forget the experiences you brought to me these days."
"I want to thank you too, Henry. These days have been the happiest days in my life," said Jay.
"Mr. Hsu told me that he will give me more chances to perform in the pub. This is what you brought to me too."
"Really? That's great," Jay raised his head and said happily.
Henry nodded. "If it weren't for you, I may never have understood what Mr. Hsu was talking about, to sing from my heart."
Jay thought of his realization that afternoon. He looked at Henry and said, "Do you know, Henry? I had the same realization too. This afternoon, I felt that I could totally understand what my teachers told me, 'to sing from my heart'. It's you that made me think about the happy feeling when I started to sing and write songs."
Henry smiled. He kissed Jay's forehead.
"I believe that now you can be even happier singing to everyone and facing your fans. I'll practice your songs too. Maybe it will make me popular in the bar."
Jay laughed. "That would be great!"
Henry kissed Jay's lips again. At that moment...
*Pong! Pong! Pong!*
Suddenly someone knocked on the door heavily. Henry and Jay were startled and almost jumped up.
