None of the characters portrayed relate to any known person. Warning - it contains explicit m/m sex. The Pink Retreat 1. Luke knew from an early age that he was different. He realised that he looked at things differently from his school mates. When they were old enough to know about such things, they talked of girls whereas he found them to be silly and noisy. He was more interested in making friends with boys and having fun with them. As he lay on his bed playing with himself, he knew others found him to be an attractive young man at the age of seventeen, and soon to be eighteen. He had blonde hair, blue eyes and a trim, slim body which now reached a full six foot. He also reckoned that he was well endowed although he had never actually been told that. His only comparison was to check himself against other guys when they showered after gym or against the many porn stars he viewed online when he spent many an hour surfing porn on the net from his bedroom. His best friend was Josh. He too was nearly eighteen and they had been friends for several years having gone through school together. Although they were doing different further education courses, they still met up regularly at weekends and in the evenings. Josh was studying horticulture whereas Luke was training as an IT software engineer. Luke loved Josh, at least that was what he thought not having had any other experience of matters of the heart but whenever he was with the dark haired lad, with his dark brown eyes and of similar height and build to Luke's, he always had a very special feeling shoot through his entire body. Yes, he was in love with Josh, he was sure of that but he had never actually said so and for some reason he was nervous of doing so in case Josh rejected his love even though Josh had always shown very clear signs of affection towards Luke. "It's time I made a move and stopped mucking around" Luke told himself as he continued playing with his now erect manhood. Luke was an only child and had been raised by his single parent mother. She had been twenty two when she had him and his father, whoever he was, had never made an appearance. That is assuming she knew who the father was. It was something she never talked about and he never asked. Despite it being a hard time for her, she had done a good job and Luke always considered his childhood to be a happy time. She was now a successful commercial lawyer and spent much of her time working and being away at conferences and meetings. As such, in recent years Luke had looked after himself more often than not but it suited him. They lived in a Victorian house in Wimbledon that had been his home all his life. It was not that large but provided sufficient space for their needs. The ground floor consisted of a large live in kitchen that had recently been modernised, a large living room that had originally been two separate rooms and which now led onto a conservatory at the back of the house. The first floor was occupied by his mother and contained a large bedroom with its own en-suite facilities, a guest bedroom and a bathroom. The top floor was Luke's. This had a large bedroom with a double bed, not that he had so far ever had anyone to join him in it, a living area which contained a sofa bed, a flat screen TV, his music system, and a kettle so that he could make hot drinks when he wished plus a small fridge that contained milk and a few cans of beer! Off the landing there was also a bathroom with a double shower. The arrangement was that provided he looked after his floor, his mother would never interfere or see what he was up to. He was therefore responsible for keeping the rooms clean and for changing his bed linen each week for washing. He was happy to do this and never minded the weekly chore that this work involved. In fact he quite enjoyed doing the cleaning and feeling self sufficient. Since he loved being naked, he invariably undertook the work in the nude which always seemed to make it more enjoyable! His erection was now reaching a climax and he knew he was going to shoot his load any second. It did and he soon had a large volume of creamy white cum pooled over his tummy. Whenever he climaxed he tended to produce a large volume. With each spurt another ribbon of cum would shoot out. He often wondered whether that was normal since when he'd watched porn he'd noticed that most guys seemed to produce much smaller amounts. He dipped his fingers into the pool and licked them. He liked the taste of his own and wondered what other guys tasted like. These were matters he would have to investigate in due course! Suddenly the intercom rang beside his bed. He had set this up some while ago so that he and his mum could contact each other throughout the house. It saved her calling up the stairs or ringing him on his mobile whenever she needed him. "Are you up young man? You'll be late for college." "Yeah, okay mum, will be down soon" he replied as he cleaned himself up with a tissue. He ran naked to the bathroom, had a quick shower and got dressed. He would do without a shave this morning and attend college with designer stubble which seemed to be the in thing these days, not that he particularly liked it. "Is it okay if I invite Josh to stay over this weekend mum?" "Yes, if you want, but don't forget I'm away in Birmingham all weekend at a conference so you'll be on your own but no doubt you can fend for yourselves. There's plenty of food in the fridge so make sure you eat proper meals. I shall be leaving early tomorrow morning and returning late on Monday" his mum replied. "Thanks mum" "And no wild parties" his mum added laughing. She always said this whenever she went away. The chances of him being able to have a wild party, was remote. He didn't think he had enough friends for such an event even if he'd wanted to. After breakfast he gave Josh a call. Although they both studied at the same college, they were in different buildings so didn't see each other unless they arranged to meet at lunchtime or after college. "Hi Josh, how you doing mate?" "Okay suppose" Josh replied somewhat despondently. "What's wrong mate?" Luke replied sensing that his friend was not his usual bubbly self. "It's my dad; he's always on at me and it has got worse since Danny left home and went to Canada." "I'm sorry" Luke replied remembering that Josh's brother had left home about six months ago because he too was fed up with his father always going on at him, "Anyhow mate, reason for calling is to see if you'd like to come and stay here for the weekend; mum's away all weekend for a conference so we'll have the place to ourselves". "Cool man, yeah I'd love to" Josh replied excitedly. He'd always liked Luke right from the time they'd first met at school. In fact he liked Luke very much indeed so the thought of spending a whole weekend with him got him very excited. Luke had always looked after him at school and stood up to the bullies who often called the pair of them names because of their 'gayness'. It was one of the many things his father hated about him and the more he matured the more camp he became; not that he considered himself to be camp as such but his sensitive side showed more than others. Having determined when each would be finished college the next day, they agreed they'd meet up in the main entrance of the administration block. Josh would take with him a change of clothes and overnight stuff and drive back with Luke in his car. Luke's mum had bought him a small Fiat as soon as he'd passed his driving test at seventeen. It was only a run about but it suited him and since she paid for the tax and insurance he only had to pay for the running costs. He'd designed a new computer game when he was younger and submitted it to a software company who were very impressed. So much so that they paid him for the game and employed him on a casual basis to test out new games being developed. It was this company he hoped would employ him once he'd finished his college course in a year's time. Josh also only had one more year to go on his Horticulture course and he hoped to get a job with a landscape garden company and perhaps one day set up his own small business but time would tell. In the meantime, to get some money for his own personal expenses, he did odd gardening jobs for neighbours and anyone else who was willing to pay him. His father never gave him any money and he knew his mum never had much to spare. When Josh told his mum that Luke had invited him over for the weekend, she was very pleased for him. She knew he had a hard time at home with his father but there wasn't a lot she could do. She had become pregnant with her eldest son Danny when she was eighteen. She and some friends had gone out one evening and met up with a group of local lads. The next thing she knew was that she was having sex with one of the lads and to her horror she became pregnant. When her father found out he made her marry the man who was two years older than her. She had cursed her father right up to his death a few years ago for making her go into a marriage that had no chance of being successful. They had little in common. At the time she was a promising pianist and looked forward to a successful career as a concert pianist. He was a labourer at a local warehouse. Once she was pregnant her career went by the wayside but she did her best to bring her son up and then her second son Josh who she loved more than anything else. She had seen her eldest being driven away by his father and now she could see the same happening to Josh. "You enjoy yourself Josh and have a break from here" she told him as she gave him a light kiss on his forehead. "Thanks mum" Josh replied with tears in his eyes. He loved his mum and knew she led a miserable life with his father. To supplement the meagre income his father brought in, she had given piano lessons at a local school for a few years but that had ceased some while ago. She had seen that Josh had a musical talent and taught him the piano as well but later he also took up the clarinet which he loved. Even that seemed to annoy his father and often when he was practising in his room he would yell upstairs "Shut the racket" but he would continue regardless. It was one of the few things he did when he entered into a world of his own and forgot about the problems around him. They lived in a small three bedroom house in another part of Wimbledon which was about fifteen minutes away from where Luke lived. He had a small bedroom with a single bed and a small table where he would do his studies. He just about had enough room to walk round things but it was tight so he had to be ultra tidy. Being a 'tidy poof' as he often called himself, he managed without too much difficulty. When he saw how much room Luke had in his rooms it made him realise the differences between them but they got on well and Josh was dying to get even closer as it were! So far neither of them had ventured that far but perhaps this weekend was going to be the icebreaker. "Hi Josh" Luke called out as he walked into the main entrance and saw Josh standing there with his bag. "Hi" Josh replied grinning and feeling happy at seeing his friend. He wanted to take Luke into his arms there and then and give him a kiss but it wasn't the right time or place and in any event they had so far never gone that far. They'd groped each other as kids and had many play fights but never more than that. The thought of going further with Luke made his whole body shiver with excitement. He was sure his excitement was showing between his legs but dare not look down or touch himself to find out. Luke led him out to the car park and weaved his way through the many cars until they found his. "Still going okay?" Josh commented as they dumped their bags into the back and climbed inside. "Yeah, it's brilliant" Luke replied as he started the engine. "Everything okay at home? Your mum is okay about you staying over until Monday?" Luke asked before he moved off. Josh told him what his mum had said and that neither of them had mentioned it to his father. "He probably won't even miss me" Josh said sadly. "I'm really sorry mate" Luke replied and placed a hand on Josh's thigh. The feel of Luke's hot hand on his leg sent another wave of excitement through him. To keep the hand in place longer, he put his on top and held it there. "Thanks; you really are lucky you know not having a father to nag you all the time" Josh said and then suddenly realised what he'd said and tried to take it back; "Sorry, shouldn't have said that". "Oh don't worry about it; I never knew my father so I never think about him; me and mum get on quite well without him" Luke replied turning to look at Josh. "Does your mum know ... you know ... that you're gay?" "Oh yeah, has done for quite some time now; she's cool about it; all she wants is me to be happy. I take it your parents don't know." "Certainly not my dad, or at least not for sure despite the fact that he's always calling me queer and a poof; not sure about mum, she's never mentioned it but I don't think she'd mind." Having had that personal conversation, Luke moved off and they made their way home. When they got there, they ran upstairs and dumped their bags on the floor. For the moment Luke made no mention of their sleeping arrangements; he would raise that one when the time came! "I'm going to get out of these clothes" Luke said as he walked into his bedroom, "think I'll wear a pair of shorts as it's hot". It was June and for once the weather had come up trumps. The sun was shining and the temperature actually felt what it should be for the time of year. Josh followed Luke into the bedroom and watched him strip off for a moment. When he was naked, he just looked at the gorgeous guy as he moved about busy hanging up his clothes. The last time he'd seen Luke naked was at school when they showered after gym but that was nearly two years ago and Luke had certainly developed since then. So had he but you never tended to notice such things yourself. Luke had firm muscles without being too over the top, nice firm thighs, very little hair on his body apart from a light covering of blonde hair that matched that on his head. His organ looked longer than Josh's but not as thick. He also had two lovely big balls. He liked that on a guy! "Haven't brought any shorts" Josh eventually said realising that he had been just staring at Luke's nakedness. "You can borrow a pair of mine if you like" Luke replied as he pulled out two pairs from a drawer. "They're a bit old but they should fit since we're much the same size." Josh grinned and took the shorts which were in fact more like beach shorts. "Sorry, they don't have the liner any more" Luke then giggled, "I cut them out of these because I hate the feel of the netting round my bits". Josh said that was no problem as he quickly stripped off his clothes and neatly folded them on the bed. "Here, have a hanger and you can put them in the wardrobe" Luke said tossing over a wooden hanger. They were now both naked and for a moment just looked at each other without saying anything before Luke slipped on his shorts. Seeing that Luke had not worn any underpants under his, he did the same. It felt good to feel his private parts flapping around inside the baggy shorts. They went downstairs to the kitchen and Josh watched Luke make them some lunch. Two baps each filled with ham and tomato. "Let's go and sit in the conservatory" Luke said as he tossed a beer to Josh without actually asking if he wanted one. Josh took his can of beer and followed Luke into the conservatory that ran across the back of the house. It was hot so Luke opened the sliding door that led onto the garden to cool it down. He then settled down on the floor using some cushions to lean against. "Prefer to sit down here than on those wicker seats" Luke commented as he settled himself down. Josh joined him and sat at an angle so that he could admire Luke's naked torso. He really was a gorgeous guy and the more he looked, the more sexually excited he became. "Garden looks nice" Josh commented trying to get his mind off the possibility of having sex with Luke, "does the Polish guy still come in each week?" "Jacek; yeah he still comes" Luke replied, "not sure he really knows what he's doing but he keeps the place tidy". They ate their lunch and drank their beer for a while without saying much apart from idle chit chat. "Thought we'd stay in today and perhaps go out tomorrow night; that okay?" Luke said having grabbed another two cans of beer from the pack he'd bought earlier. "Yeah, fine; anywhere in particular you want to go?" Josh replied. "Would love to go to a gay bar and a club but I'm told they insist on age ID these days so that's out; will be so glad when we're eighteen" Luke said thoughtfully. "Same here, but only another six weeks to go" Josh chuckled. "Yeah, can't come soon enough; even the gay saunas have a minimum age of eighteen so that's out as well; still, thought we'd go into Soho and soak up the atmosphere; apart from that we'll have to amuse ourselves here" Luke grinned. "Suits me; sure we can think of plenty to do!" Josh grinned back. Having consumed another can of beer, Luke laid back with his knees slightly raised. Josh suddenly realised that he could see down the baggy legs of Luke's shorts. "I can see your dick" he giggled as he gazed at the large head poking down the leg towards him. It made his own organ grow in size, and it was soon evident beneath his shorts which were beginning to balloon out. Luke involuntarily pulled the leg of his shorts higher and exposed the head. Josh watched on as Luke casually rubbed the end. "I can see yours pushing out your shorts" Luke giggled. "Yeah, well, what you expect seeing that lump of meat staring at me" Josh chuckled as he slipped a hand inside his shorts and felt his own erection. "Fancy going upstairs to watch some porn?" Luke asked trying to sound as casual as he could but in reality feeling excited at the thought of getting more serious with Josh. "You got some then?" Josh replied also trying to sound cool about it and not giving away his excitement. "Yeah, got loads; I download it off the net; come on let's go and have some fun" Luke replied immediately standing up and collecting their empty plates, "Can you bring those cans with you; better not let mum see we've been boozing too much!" Luke added giggling. When they got upstairs, Luke immediately slipped off his shorts and threw them to one side. "Think these could be somewhat restricting" he chuckled as he did so. Josh took the hint and did the same whilst Luke connected his laptop to the flat screen TV. They then sat on the floor using the sofa as a back. Soon the screen came alive with a couple of naked guys. One was black and the other white. "Wow look at the size of that black guy's dick" Josh exclaimed as he watched the guy thrust his naked organ into the other guy. Luke chuckled, "Yeah, that'd bring tears to your eyes". "God, this is brilliant' where you find these?" Luke explained there were loads of sites online where such material could be downloaded free. "Every fetish under the sun depending on your particular tastes" Luke replied, "I've tried most in my time". "Wow, can see we're going to have lots of fun" Josh replied as he casually stroked his now hard organ. "You ever used this with a guy?" Luke asked casually as he slipped his hand onto Josh's thick organ. Josh turned to look at him and grinned, "No, have you with this?" he replied taking Luke's erection into his hand. "Sadly not mores the pity" Luke giggled. "You ever been ... you know" Luke then asked hoping he was not taking things too fast. "No" "Not found anyone you fancied enough to do it then?" Luke replied. "Oh that's not the problem, just not had the nerve to ask" Josh said glancing at Luke. "Ah, I see; you have someone in mind do you?" Josh turned towards Luke and grinned, "Yes, you of course, did you not realise I fancy the pants off you Luke". For a moment Luke was taken aback at Josh's directness. He hadn't expected that. "I love you Luke, have from the moment we first met" Josh blurted out before sinking his head into his hands, "Sorry; shouldn't have said that" he muttered not looking at Luke. "Don't be sorry" Luke eventually replied having taken in what had just been said. It was something he'd hoped to hear for a long time but had never had the nerve to have this kind of conversation with Josh. "I love you too" Luke added taking Josh into his arms and kissing the top of his head. It was then he realised that Josh was crying. He lifted his head and looked into his dark brown eyes. "I love you Josh" Luke repeated, "I've just never had the nerve to tell you because I was afraid it might upset our friendship. Josh hugged Luke's naked body tight against his and kissed the side of his face. "It would never upset our friendship Luke, in fact it would strengthen it, I so want to love you and feel you inside me." "Oh god Josh, I can't think of anything I want more my love." Slowly they moved their mouths together and ventured a kiss on the lips. It was the first time they'd ever done this for real and neither was too sure what to do next despite having watched many kisses on films. Eventually they found their mouths opening for each other and their tongues probing each other's mouths. How long they kissed like this neither could say but when they finally parted and grinned at each other, they both felt they had broken through a special barrier between them. "Why don't we make ourselves more comfortable in bed" Luke said as he switched off the porn and stood up. He held his hand out for Josh and gently lifted him up before leading him into the bedroom. Once the duvet had been removed they both climbed on the bed. Josh immediately lay on his back and lifted his knees opening them wide. He watched Luke bend over him and take his erect organ into his mouth. "Ah" Josh exclaimed involuntarily as he felt Luke's hot lips round his sensitive head. He'd never ever had anyone do this before and it felt wonderful. Luke was gentle and slowly licked and sucked the organ up and down. He wanted this to last so he took his time. Having Josh's organ in his mouth felt wonderful and he silently chastised himself for taking so long to get to this point in his sexual experience. "Mm, that tastes nice" Luke mumbled as he licked the slit. He could taste the sweet pre-cum and it felt so good. "You want me to finger you?" Luke asked pausing his sucking since he didn't want Josh to climax just yet. "Yes please" Josh replied and immediately lifted his legs up over his chest to expose his puckered hole. "Oh my god that looks so beautiful" Luke exclaimed as he gazed upon the perfect entrance. He just loved everything about Josh's naked body; his nipples, the fine line of black hair that led down from his navel to the matte of black pubic hair and now the entrance that in due course he was going to penetrate. His own manhood was aching to get inside and was already weeping copious amounts of pre-cum in anticipation. Luke quickly pulled out of the side cabinet a small bottle of lube he used when he fingered himself. Having spread some on two fingers he then slowly pushed them up against the tight hole. As he did so, he looked into Josh's eyes to see his reaction. The last thing he wanted to do was hurt him. Gradually the tight muscle gave way to his fingers and he slipped them inside. "Oh, that feels so good" Josh exclaimed as he felt the two digits probe his inside. "You ever finger yourself?" Luke asked as he continued feeling the hot flesh inside. "No, do you?" "Yeah, often do; even used a dildo to see what it's like." "Wow, you got a dildo?" Josh giggled. "Oh yeah, that feels good; I don't know what you're doing Luke but whatever it is feels brilliant". Luke chuckled since he knew what he'd found was Josh's magic spot. He'd read about this and knew roughly where to find it. Now he'd done so, he knew exactly how to pleasure his lover in future. "Oh god" Josh exclaimed, "How many fingers you got in there?" "Three now" Luke laughed, "you okay?" "Yeah, it's awesome mate, absolutely awesome." "You ready for me now?" Luke asked hoping against hope that Josh was going to say yes. "Yeah man, fill me up" Josh giggled as he relaxed and let Luke take control. Luke's heart was beating ten to the dozen. He'd thought of this moment so many times and tried to imagine what it would feel like. Now he was really going to find out. He only hoped it was going to be as good as he imagined. He covered himself with lube and offered the head up to the hole that he'd opened up. Slowly and gently he pushed against the tight ring of muscle watching Josh's face as he did so. As if my magic, he suddenly realised he was inside Josh. He paused for a moment to let Josh get used to the invasion before slowly and gently pushing the remainder of his shaft inside. Josh clearly loved it. Luke could tell from the expression of pure contentment on his face. "That feel good?" Luke finally said when he knew he was fully inside. "Good? It's brilliant Luke, absolutely brilliant; I just don't know how to describe it; the feel of you inside me is sending electric shocks right through my whole body." Luke was now slowly thrusting in and out. He knew if he went too quickly that he'd reach his climax and for a moment the excitement and pleasure would be lost. "How's it for you? Josh asked as he felt the hot organ move back and forth inside him without causing any discomfort that he had imagined it might do. "It's like nothing I've ever experienced in my whole life; it's just beautiful" Luke managed to say as he soaked in the wonderful feeling going through his body. "You want me to climax inside you?" Luke asked after a while when he knew he couldn't continue much longer without spilling his load. "Yes, please, I want to feel your hot seed fill me up" Josh giggled. Without saying any more, Luke gradually increased the pace of his thrusts and it was not long before he felt his seed rising and the wonderful feeling of ecstasy wash over him. "Oh god" Luke cried out as he ejaculated into Josh. With each thrust came another spurt of ejaculate and another wonderful feeling. Luke wondered whether it would always feel as wonderful as this or whether as time went by the pleasure diminished. Finally his thrusting ceased and he looked into Josh's eyes. "Thank you so much; I've dreamt of doing this to you for such a long time" Luke finally managed to say as he sank between Josh's legs on top of him. Their mouths locked into another passionate kiss which continued for several minutes. Gradually Luke felt himself slipping out of Josh. For a brief moment Josh felt sad when it had finally slipped out because he'd found it comforting to have Luke part of him. "That was beautiful, thank you Luke" Josh eventually said looking into the Luke's blue eyes. "You want me now or later? "Later, plenty of time; I want to savour that wonderful moment for a while longer but you could suck me off if you like" Josh replied grinning. "My pleasure gorgeous" Luke giggled as he moved back down Josh's body to take the still erect organ into his mouth. This time he sucked with more gusto and it wasn't long before Josh was shooting his load into Luke's mouth. It tasted every bit as good as the earlier pre-cum and his own. Perhaps most guys' cum did taste the same! "Ah" Josh cried out as his orgasm reached its crescendo and the hot seed spurted out. As he shot his load, he made a mental note to tell Luke that he wanted to watch him ejaculate sometime because he loved watching it happen. When they'd both come down from the excitement of their first sex together, Luke suggested they have a shower. They walked naked into the bathroom and stepped into the shower cubicle together since it was plenty large enough to take the pair of them. They took great delight in washing each other in between kisses and cuddles. As they did so, they both felt so happy and realised their long term friendship had developed into love for each other. They had both felt this way about each other for a long time of course but this was the first time they had actually made each other realise how much their love meant to each other. "Come on, let's go downstairs like this" Luke giggled as he led Josh down buck naked. Luke loved being naked and he had often ventured downstairs in such a state even when his mother was around. She never seemed to bother seeing her teenage son prancing around naked. Josh on the other hand had never done such a thing. He dreaded to think what his father would say if he did so but he did enjoy laying naked on his bed, especially when he was feeling randy! It was too early to start preparing their meal so they opted to go back into the conservatory since the sun was still shining. Luke casually walked out through the door into the garden much to Josh's amazement. "Won't someone see you?" Josh asked as he stopped on the threshold of the patio door. "Nah, as you can see we have a walled garden with lots of trees and the house at the end is too far away to see. The neighbours either side could probably see from their upstairs window but one is away on holiday and the other is out at work all day. Still, I don't care; if they don't like what they see they shouldn't look should they?" Luke giggled as he moved out into the middle of the grass. "Come on, don't be shy" he added laughing. Josh took the plunge and walked over to where Luke was standing. It did feel wonderful to have the sun beating down on his naked flesh and have the feeling of complete freedom. "You know I have a cousin who lives in Sussex" Luke said casually as he put his hands behind his head and leaned back to let the sun bathe his private parts. "Yeah" Josh replied wondering what the relevance was of this fact. "Well, he loves being naked so when I stay with him we go around naked all the time both inside and out. The cottage he owns is in the middle of nowhere so there's nobody around to see us apart from the birds and the bees and the wheat or the corn waving in the breeze in the adjoining fields." "Wow, sounds idyllic" Josh replied feeling somewhat jealous that his boyfriend did such things with another guy. "How old is your cousin?" "Um, Hugh must be in his late twenties; I think he's just over ten years older than us so that would make him twenty eight." "And what's he like? Body wise I mean." "Slim, about the same height as us, always looks fit and has a dick to die for!" Luke giggled thinking about the wonderful times he'd had with Hugh. "And have you ever ... you know ... done it with him?" "Oh god no, although he is gay and I think he rather fancies me but he's always very well behaved when I'm there. I have known him all my life so I presume neither of us feels it would be appropriate to have sex with each other." "He sounds nice" Josh said again feeling somewhat envious that Luke had someone like that to visit. "He is, I like him very much and we get on well together. In fact Hugh was the first person I came out to and he helped me deal with my feelings at the time. You'd like him. In fact when I next go down there perhaps you could come too, I'm sure he wouldn't mind. The room I use has a large double bed in it." "Wow, that'd be great, thanks" Josh replied suddenly feeling very excited and not so jealous or envious. "I seem to remember you saying that he also owned a farm didn't you?" Josh added as they slowly walked back towards the house. "Yeah, it belonged to his father but when he died, Hugh didn't want to manage it himself so he moved out of the big farmhouse and employed a farm manager to handle the day to day things. Hugh now lives in the cottage which is within the farm land. I call it my 'Pink Retreat'" Luke chuckled. "Why that?" "The outside of the cottage is bright pink, it always has been for as long as I can remember, and when I'm down there it feels like a retreat away from civilisation yet Brighton is under half an hour from Ditchling by car so it's not really that remote. Just feels like that when you're there. I love it." They walked back into the house and went into the kitchen. Luke turned towards Josh, took his naked body into his arms and kissed him. He just couldn't get enough of him now they had finally broken the shyness that had existed between them. "Mm, love you Josh Taylor" Luke said between kisses. "And I love you Luke Palmer" Josh managed to reply before Luke pulled his lips into another passionate kiss. When they finally put each other down, they both felt excited about spending another whole two days and three nights with each other as Luke set about preparing their evening meal. ___________________________________________________________________________ The next chapter of 'The Pink Retreat' will be available shortly.
