Previously Michael sank onto a bench outside, Paulo sitting beside him. "You okay, Mikey? It got a little tense in there." Michael smiled at him. "I'm okay, Polo. Justin calmed me down." "Thanks, lover." Michael talked to Justin. "Everything, okay now babe?" Justin replied, Michael hearing the love in his voice. "With you in my soul, everything will always be okay. Love you, Timby." Justin's smile filled Michael heart. "Love ya back lover." "I'll explain it all to you later, Jus. We're heading home." "Okay, Mico. I'll be home around six. We're cutting it short today. Timba want to celebrate his new happiness." "You should stay with your friend, Jus." "No, love I want to be with you. I have lots of time now to be with Timba, thanks to you." Michael smiled, Paulo knowing Justin was being Michael's rock. "Later, babe." "Later, love." Michael smiled at Paulo. "Let's go home Paulo and get you ready for Mr. Gyllenhaal." Paulo smiled, Michael's smile every larger. Chapter 63 Paulo drove back, Michael sitting quietly in the passenger seat, reflecting on what had just happened. Justin had calmed his terror down, calmed him with his deep love. Michael had been terrified, terrified of the encircling crowd. And Justin had saved him. Justin's love had saved him. Michael smiled, knowing what that now meant to him. They arrived home, Michael's watch reading almost three. They walking inside to a ringing phone. Michael picked it up. "Hello, Michael speaking." "Mikey. It's Jake. How are you doing, buddy?" Jakes masculine voice coming over the line, Michael smiling. "Hey, buddy. Great to hear your voice, Jake. I'm doing well." Paulo quickly looked towards Michael, Michael smiling. "Sure, he's here. I'll let you talk to my brother, Polo." Michael smiled again, handing Paulo the phone. Paulo blushed a little, taking the receiver from Michael. "Hi, Jake. You're back in town." Paulo's smile brightening Michael's heart. "Yes, Paulo. Did Mikey just call you Polo? And brother?" Paulo smiled widely. "'l'll explain that later. Are we still on for tonight, Jake?" "You bet, Paulo. I've been waiting for this all week." Paulo picking up on Jake's deeply emotional voice. "Great, what have you planned for tonight?" "It's a surprise. Just dress up nice with that sexy smile on your face." Paulo blushed, Michael not trying to listen in. "Mikey has already taken care of that. The clothes I mean. The smile's my own, I'll provide that free of charge, but only for you." Jake smiled, his heart doing a backflip. "Where do you want me to meet you, Jake?" Paulo said. Michael looked up at Paulo, shaking his head. "Meet you? You tell your suitor that your family wants to meet him before you're allowed to leave this house." Michael said, folding his arms, Paulo looking shocked. Paulo told Jake every word Michael had just said, Jake laughing. "Tell your "brother", that I will pick you up there at seven thirty." Jake said, Paulo smiling. "Great, Jake. See you then. And, Jake?" "Yes, Polo." "It's really nice to hear your voice again." Jake smiled, as did Michael. "Same for me, Paulo. See you this evening." Paulo hung up the phone, looking at Michael standing with his arms folded. "Mikey, you're one of a kind. Thanks for being the big brother. Jake had a good laugh." Michael looked at him, Paulo seeing determination and caring in his golden eyes. "I was being serious, Polo. I want to talk to Jake before you leave." Paulo looked a bit nervous, Michael putting his hand on his shoulder. "Relax, I'll let you lead your own life." Paulo smiled, hugging Michael. "Ok, lets see. We have four hours. More than enough time to get you ready. Come on handsome, let's do something with that mess you call a hair style." "Oh god, Justin was right. What have I gotten myself into?" Michael laughed, swatting Paulo's shoulder, picking up the shopping bags off the couch. Paulo picked up Michael's laptop. "You go and take a shower, shampoo your hair good and I'll meet you in my room. Take your suit up there. And put on these new underwear. Who knows who will be seeing you in them." Michael winking, handing Paulo a small bag. Paulo blushed deeply, not wanting to think about that. Michael sensed his concern, putting his arm around him, walking him towards the stairs. "You are in charge of your own life, Polo. Go at your pace, don't let someone lead you, go with what feels good in your heart." Paulo smiled, hugging Michael again. "Thanks for the words of wisdom, bro." Paulo said as both men walked up the stairs. Michael laughed, slapping his ass. "Your welcome, bro. Now get that hot ass in the shower. See you shortly for a hair cut." Paulo headed for his room smiling,the suit bag in his arm,Michael going into his and Justin's bedroom with his laptop. He changed into a wife beater and shorts. The laptop he'd set down on the bed. Michael walked into their bathroom, pulling out his hair products and styling tools. He looked at his own hair, seeing no need yet for these styling tools. His hair was still short, it would take a couple of months for the length and fullness to return to his hair. He knew how much Justin loved stroking that thick hair, and touching it. That brought a large smile to his face. He walked back out and over to the bed, picking up his laptop and walking out onto the balcony. He sat down in a wicker chair, opening the laptop up on the small table there. He opened it up, checking his emails. The first one he saw was from Zach. Michael smiled reading it through. Zach filled him in on Christina and Becky, Michael making a mental note to tell Justin. The second one was from his agent, Ryan. Michael read his email through, a large smile passing across his face. Another nice surprise for his Justin. Michael read a few more from his publishers and other people, closing off his laptop. He walked back into the bedroom just as Paulo walked in with a robe on. "I'm all yours, Mikey. Let's see what you can make me into." Michael smiled directing Paulo into the washroom. "I wouldn't change a thing, Polo. You're already a self made man." Paulo smiled, letting Michael comb his hair. They spent about half an hour in there, Michael cutting and styling Paulo's hair. Once finished, Paulo looked at himself in the mirror. "Wow, Michael. That's a great job, my hair looks great and feels like silk." "It's the soft conditioner gel I added, it also darkens your roots and luster's the blackness. Your boyfriend will be drooling." Paulo blushed, looking into Michael's golden eyes in the mirror. "He's technically not my boyfriend yet, this is our first date." "Trust me, one look at you and he'll be your boyfriend." Michael smiling. "Mikey, I'm getting nervous. This is a big step for me." "Relax, Paulo, everyone has been in your shoes, even me. And I had to deal with Justin Timberlake." Michael smiled, remember their first real date. That first night at Michael's apartment. "Was it as special as this feels to me. Somehow I can't imagine you being nervous, Justin must of been very sure of himself." Michael smiled again. "He was nervous, actually. So was I. It was new territory for both of us. It was a special night for both of us. To think that he wanted me, needed me to love him, it still makes me stop and think, even today. Sometimes I still can't believe he loves me. But I look into his blue eyes and I see his love there, his love for me. And that makes me love him so much." Paulo saw Michael's feelings showing on his handsome face. "He was unsure how to approach me because of my past, my insecurities. But together we learned about each other. His caring so much for my feelings, for my happiness, it made it even more special." Paulo smiled, knowing Justin's deep caring love for Michael. "I saw the same look in Jake's eyes at the hospital, Polo. He was caring and concerned for you also. I believe you have nothing to worry about him, or his love, so relax, brother." Paulo smiled, seeing and feeling Michael's honesty. "Besides, he'll have your big brother to deal with if he goes astray, that should scare the shit out of him." Paulo laughed, Michael grinning. "Well, we've got a couple of hours to kill before we have to doll you all up, how about you jump into some shorts and a t-shirt and we'll have a nice cup of herbal tea, and just relax." Paulo smiled, leaving Michael's bathroom, Michael following. The two brother's relaxed out on the patio, just talking and laughing. Michael told Paulo more about his private life, about his Justin. He talked about all the special things Justin had done for him, how he showed his love in many ways. Paulo told Michael more about his new family. Paulo told Michael about his cousins, all of Alberto's grandchildren. Michael could see that Paulo was more proud of Marco than the rest, seeing Paulo's love for his younger cousin. "Marco sounds likes a nice young man. I'd love to meet him." "You will when you go to Spain, Mikey." Michael nodded, silently thinking for a moment. "Yes, my return to Spain." Paulo looked at him quietly. seeing Michael deep in thought. "What will you do when we return to grandfather's welcoming arms. Have you received any instruction from Adrian or god, Michael?" Michael could see Paulo's concern for him. "Adrian visited me last night, Polo. He's told me some things. I now know the identity of the commander of truth. We need to prepare for his eventual coming." "What do we need to do, Michael?" " I need to do something, Polo. I have to find something, something Adrian hid a long time ago. Something that will turn the tide, that will ensure my destiny. But that is for me to take care of." Paulo saw that Michael was trying to evade the question. "I shall do what you require, Mikey. I am your friend, and your brother." Michael smiled, suddenly hearing Justin's happy voice. "On our way home, love. The rehearsal is over early due to some lighting problems. Should be home in twenty minutes. Are you okay now, love? I was worried about you." "Fantastic, love. Absolutely fantastic. I'll be waiting with bells on." "I'd sooner have you waiting with nothing on." Michael could hear Justin's passion in his voice. "Cheeky, love. But our brother is here." "Alright, love. How's the preparations for tonight going . Is he nervous?" "Only as nervous as you were, remember?" "Oh, then he's a bundle of nerves." Michael smiled, Paulo knowing what was going on. "I love ya, Timberlake." "I'm hot for your form, Tavarro." "Then get that beautiful ass here." Justin smiled, watching the traffic, Lonnie sensing he was talking to Michael. "Be home soon, love." "Bye, Jus." Michael looked at his watch. Five oclock. He'd have an hour with Justin. "Paulo, Justin and Lonnie will be here in twenty minutes. Can you help me out with something?" Twenty minutes later, Justin drove his SUV into their front yard, Lonnie climbing out and jumping back into the vacated driver's seat. "I'll see you in the morning, Lonnie. Unless Mico wants to go out tonight." "Sure thing, Justy. With Paulo gone tonight I don't want you guys going anywhere without me. Got it?" "Yes, sir." Justin saluting him, but knowing Lonnie's concern. "Later, Jus." "Later, Afro Sally." Lonnie laughed,driving down the driveway. Justin waved to him, turning and walking into the house. Standing in front of the staircase was Paulo, smiling at Justin. Justin saw he was holding a white rose. "Good afternoon, Justin. I was asked to give you this. It is a symbol of your pure heart. Michael wants you to know that his love is as pure as your heart is. Both of you are one of the same soul, both your love and happiness joined. He loves you deeply, brother." Justin smiled taking the rose. "And where is the object of my affection? My love and my soulmate." Paulo smiled, kissing Justin's cheek. "He awaits you upstairs. His love and desire open for you. I'll make myself scarce. Go now and enjoy that love." Paulo smiled walking out to the patio. Justin smiled after him, a tear in his eye. Justin took the stairs two at a time, his own desires igniting. When he opened their bedroom door a sight of beauty filled his vision. Michael was kneeling on the bed, naked and facing him. Justin's blue eyes connected with Michael's golden ones. "I love you, Timby. I wait for my lover, my heartsong and my soulmate. Will you give me that love? I need to hear that music. I need just you." Justin teared up, walking slowly to the bed, his clothes leaving his body quickly. He was naked himself by the time he'd reached Michael. Justin ran his hand along Michael's chest, feeling his warmth. "I give you my love with all my soul, darling." Justin said, leaning in and kissing him deeply. Michael returned the kiss with great passion, his arms going around Justin's waist, pulling him down on top of him. Justin was on top of Michael, their desires ignited, their bodies in tune with each other's trembling emotions. Justin broke the kiss looking down at Michael. "I love you, Mico." "Show me how much, my love. I am yours to love." Justin kissed him again, his hands finding Michael's hardened nipples. Michael moaned as Justin's lips moved lower, attaching to his left nipple. Michael almost screamed, the intensity of the movement opening his mind to his desires. Justin slowly went lower, kissing and licking everywhere. His lips found Michael's enlarged center, Justin taking it all in. Michael gasped as Justin began to deep throat him. Justin was in passion's place, his own body tingling with ecstasy. Michael ran his hands down Justin's back, then up along his shoulder and down his hairy left arm. Michael took Justin's fingers in his mouth, sucking each one, Justin moaning along with Michael. Michael licked up his hand, then continued up his hairy muscular arm. The feeling of his soft arm hair on Michael's tongue sent him into a trembling fit. Justin felt the trembling and what Michael was doing. He pulled off Michael's cock, staring into his eyes. "I want you, Jus. I need you inside me. Make me one with you, make me yours." Justin pulled up again, kissing Michael's swollen lips, their tongues tasting each other. Michael spread his taunt, muscular legs as Justin guided his manhood to it's favorite place. Justin slowly sank into Michael, Michael pulling his own body up against Justin's. Michael screamed Justin's name as he felt the full length inside him. Michael started trembling all over, Justin never feeling Michael's body so giving and needful. "Mico, are you alright?" Justin whispered, his emotions deep in his soft voice. "I'm where I've always wanted to be. I'm with the man who loves me. Make love to me, Timby. Make our music fill my soul." Justin was crying, feeling Michael deep love. He made love to Michael, caressing him, kissing him, and satisfying him. The both felt the waves of lust and heated passion flow through them, and they both heard the music, their heartsong as Michael called it. They abandoned all their senses feeling only their heated love, their passion, and it took both of them into love's center, both exploding when the love became too overwhelming. They came down from that place together, kissing each other tenderly, holding each other tight. Both men tearing and crying at the love they felt. After they'd calmed down enough to speak, Justin kissed Michael. "That was amazing, Mico. It was again, like the first time. But so different." Michael smiled, kissing Justin's neck. "I wanted to thank you, for what you did for me today?" "What happened out there, Mico? I felt you so totally happy, then so terrified." Michael told Justin what had happened at the book store. "You saved me, Jus. Your love saved me." Justin teared up hearing Michael's words, words coming from his heart. "I know now that I won't be afraid in crowds anymore, you will be there to center me, to calm me and love me." Justin kissed him again. "Just like you've done for me since the first day I met you. I love that , that feeling you give me to calm me. Now I can do the same for you, my love." Michael smiled, kissing him again. They lay together, basking in the afterglow, their hands and lips gently carressing each other. "How much time before Polo needs your help, Mico?" Justin said, Michael's head laying on his chest. Michael was about to look at the clock when they heard a light tapping on their bedroom door. "Hows that for an answer." Michael sighed. "Come in, Polo." Justin smiled, pulling up the sheet. Polo slowly opened the door, entering. He smiled seeing the two lovers still naked in bed, the sheet covering their centers. "Hi guys, it's almost seven. Jake will be here in a half hour. Can you help me, Mikey. I'm too nervous to get this all right." Michael smiled, as did Justin, knowing Paulo wanted to look his best. "Sure thing, Paulo. Give me ten minutes to shower and then I'm all yours." Paulo blushed seeing Michael climb out of bed, turning his head away. Michael smiled, looking at Justin. Justin winked at him, holding in a chuckle. "Polo, don't be embarrassed. Your going to have to get comfortable with this. You'll be living here from now on, and me and Timby will be having sex. You're going to probably see both of our asses or more from time to time. So get use to our bodies. We love each other and we express our love together. Deal with it, Polo. Turn around and look at me." Paulo turned around slowly looking at Michael. Michael had his robe on now, Justin standing behind him. Justin still wore nothing. "Okay, Mikey. It's just, I feel like I'm invading your private moments." "Our love making is private, Polo. That we don't want you to see. But our bodies are fine, you said so yourself, horndog." Paulo laughed, Michael's humor relaxing him. "You just can't touch, got it?" Justin said, smiling at his brother. "Got it, guys." Paulo smiled, laughing again. Michael and Justin both smiled, walking up to Paulo, hugging him together. Paulo tried not to look at Justin, but his smooth body was in full view. "I'll meet you in the shower, love. " Justin kissed him, turning and walking into the bathroom, both men seeing his beautiful butt on display. "Wow, it gets more beautiful every time I see it." Michael purred. "It is damn fine." Paulo said, Michael looking at him. Both men started laughing. "I'll see you in a few minutes, Paulo. Meet you in your room." "Thanks, Mikey." Ten minutes later Michael was helping Paulo with his hair again. He combed it, put gel in it and styled it again. Michael watched Paulo walking around in his underwear, marveling at his sculpted body. Yes, Jake was one lucky man. Michael smiled inside. But not as lucky as me, he thought. Michael helped Paulo with his suit jacket, both men looking in the full length wall mirror. "Man, Polo. You are one fine specimen of man flesh." They both heard the doorbell downstairs, Michael knowing Justin would answer it. Justin came out of the kitchen, walking down the hall and opening the front door. Jake stood in the doorway, Justin smiling at his handsome looks. Jake had on a cream colored jacket, dark brown pants and a white silk shirt. The man was strikingly handsome, every inch of him breathtaking. "Jake, my man. How ya doing, buddy." Justin pulled him into a hug. "Doing great, Justin. This is one beautiful house. Is it yours?" "It's mine and Mico's. It's our dream home. And your always welcome here my friend. Paulo's upstairs getting ready." Jake smiled, a nervous smile from what Justin could see. "Relax, Jake. He's thrilled about tonight." "Is he, Jus? I'm kind of nervous. I want this to be a special night." Justin put his arm around him. "It will be, just be yourself, and just enjoy Polo's company. He's nervous too, it's only natural." There's that name again, where did that come from, Jake thought. Jake smiled. Both men heard someone coming down the stairs, both looking up. Paulo walked down the staircase, Jake's eyes locked on his face. Paulo looked stunning. The dark green jacket drawing out the radiance of his emerald eyes. His hair was black and shining. Ever inch of him Jake took in. The man was a picture of earthly beauty. Justin wasn't looking at Paulo, he was looking at the vision that walked behind him. He was looking at his vision of beauty, his beautiful man. Michael wore a tight black polo shirt, that accented every curve of his muscled chest. Black shorts revealed his muscular hairy legs. Justin stared into his golden eyes, seeing his love. Paulo walked up to Jake smiling an intoxicating shy smile. "Hello, Jake. You look very handsome tonight." Jake blushed a little still looking into Paulo's green eyes. "I've been made almost speechless by your breathtaking beauty." Paulo now blushed. "Well, kiss him, Polo." Justin said, smiling. Paulo leaned in, kissing Jake's cheek. Jake kissed him back, smiling nervously. "We should get going, Paulo. I have the evening all planned." "Okay, Jake. We'll see you guys later." Paulo smiled at Justin and Michael , who were now standing arm in arm. "One moment, guys. I'd like to have a word with you before you leave, Jake." Michael said, looking directly at Jake. Paulo blushed. "Mikey, this isn't necessary. It isn't funny either." Jake was looking at Michael, seeing a serious look on his face, Paulo picking up on it also. "It won't take long Paulo. And I'm not trying to be funny. I need to speak to him, for just a moment." "Alright, Michael. It's okay, Paulo. I'll be just a moment." "Lets go into the living room, Jake. Wait here Paulo. You too, Jus." Both men saw Michael's relaxed attitude, but also his determination. Michael and Jake walked into the living room, Michael closing the door behind them. "What's on your mind, Michael. Is something wrong?" Michael looked at Jake smiling. "No, nothing's wrong. I just wanted to say something to you." Michael sat down on the couch, Jake sitting beside him. "First off, I want to say thank you." "Thank you, for what?" Jake looking into Michael's golden eyes, feeling surprised. "Thank you, for falling in love with Paulo. You're totally in love with him, aren't you?" Jake blushed, deeply. "I didn't think it was that obvious, I thought I hid it well." "You have, very well. I have only picked up on it with my gifts. You don't openly show it." Jake smiled, knowing it was still a secret from Paulo. "How does Paulo feel, Michael?" Michael sat quietly for a moment, as if weighing his words. "Paulo is scared, Jake. Not scared to love someone, just scared that he might loss that love. He'd been so alone, so empty. Then he met you. He has deep feelings for you, never doubt that." "Paulo's scared? I won't do anything to hurt him, I love him." Michael smiled, hearing Jake's truthful words. "I know, Jake. All I'm saying is go slow. Paulo needs time, time to gather his feelings. They are all inside him, but separated. When they all come together, you will find someone who'll love you forever. I believe in my heart that both of you are soulmates. Paulo just has to find it out for himself. I sense you already know it." Jake smiled in wonder at Michael. He'd seen right into Jake's soul. "I need to thank you too, Michael. If it wasn't for you that day knocking me down, I wouldn't of met this beautiful man, my Paulo, whom I believe will complete my soul." Michael smiled seeing Jake's blossoming love. "Well, if worse comes to worse, I can knock Paulo down and sit on him, until he finally realizes what you mean to him." Jake laughed, loving Michael's humor. "Okay, Mikey. I understand what you're saying to me. I'll let Paulo find his love for me." Michael hugged him close. Michael explained to Jake about Paulo's past, and their newfound brotherhood. As well as where the nickname had come from. "Paulo thinks I'm in here as a big brother or father figure, reading you the riot act. I'm not, Jake. I'm here as Paulo's friend and yours. I love both of you, and I want to see both of you happy. And I see the only way that can be acheived. By both of you loving each other." Jake smiled widely, hugging Michael again. "That's all I wanted to say. Now go out there and have fun with my brother." Jake smiled, both men getting up. They walked out of the room, back into the hallway, Paulo immediately looking at Jake. He saw the wide smile on his face, Paulo's feelings relaxing. Michael was smiling too ,walking to Justin and putting his arm around him, kissing his cheek. "So you kids, get going. The night is full of romance and love. Have fun, Paulo." Michael smiling at both of them. Paulo hugged both men, Michael patting his shoulder. Jake hugged both of them, Michael smiling at him. Michael and Justin stood in the front doorway, watching the two handsome men jump into Jake's Miata convertible. "So, did big brother lay down the law, and stand up for his little brother." Justin smiled, hugging Michael tightly. "I stood up for love. " Michael said, kissing his lips. They both watched the car drive down the driveway, disappearing through the front gates. "Well, our little boy is growing up. He'll leave the nest soon." Michael said quietly. Justin looked at him, Michael looking back. Both men started laughing, falling into each others arms, Michael closing the door. Jake and Paulo drove quietly, both men stealing glances at each other. "I want to apologize for whatever Michael told you, Jake. He was just acting like a big brother." Paulo said, Jake feeling his embarrassment. "Hey, Paulo. You can't chastise Michael for loving you. He's only concerned for both of us. He loves you deeply, as a brother and a friend. That's all he told me. He wants both of us to be happy. Especially you." Paulo looked at him, smiling. "He said that?" "Yes, Paulo. Michael is a special man. He's so giving of his love. He loves you, and he loves me. He wants us to be happy. In whatever way we feel we want to be. He wasn't interfering, he was just stating his love for both of us." Paulo smiled again, marvelling at Michael's feelings towards both of them. "He's one special guy, I know that. He's my brother." Jake smiled. He knew the story but wanted to hear it from Paulo. "What's with the brother thing all of a sudden?" Paulo smiled, telling Jake everything that had happened since they'd left him in Chicago. Jake marveled at Michael's love shining into everyone's lives. Timbaland had Michael's love in him, as did Cassi. And now Paulo had two brothers to love him and look out for him. He felt deep love for Paulo, Paulo briefly telling him about his past, about his mother. Jake felt there was more there, more pain, and he wanted to ease that pain. Jake's own heart felt so alone. He was sitting beside a man that took his breath away. A man he had deep feelings for. But could that man love him as much as he loved him. Paulo put his hand on top of Jake's which was on the gear shift. "So, where are we going?" "It's a special place, a place I go when I need some happiness. No one know's about it, it's my own special place. Are you up for a picnic." Paulo smiled, knowing this place meant something to Jake. "Sure, I love the outdoors." They drove for a while, finally pulling into a large park. "This is Griffith Park. It's Los Angele's biggest park. Part of it is closed off at the moment due to some work being done on the observatory over there. Paulo looked at the big building, seeing the dome for the telescope. Jake pulled the car into a deserted parking lot, shutting off the engine. He got out, walking around and opening the door for Paulo. "Thank you, Jake. Your very chivalrous." Jake smiled at Paulo, taking in his beautiful gaze. Jake popped the trunk button, walking to the trunk. He pulled out a large picnic basket. "Follow me, it's just a short walk from here. It will be very private, the area is closed. I know the caretakers, I've arranged for complete privacy." Paulo smiled, Jake taking his hand in his. The two young men walked down a path, walking through the luscious vegetation. After ten minutes they came out into a clearing, Paulo looking out at a beautiful view. They could see all across the park, all the trees and the whole city behind it. "What a breathtaking view." Paulo said looking out across the horizon. "Yes, it's breathtaking." Jake looking at Paulo's face. Paulo turned, looking into Jake's blue eyes. They stared at each other, both men lost in the deepness of the other's eyes. Paulo pulled Jake towards him. Their lips touched, sending a shockwave through both of them. The kiss lengthened, their arms wrapping around each other. Both men became lost in the other's being, his scent, his touch, his very soul. They finally broke apart when Paulo heard Jake's stomach growling. "Sorry about that, haven't eaten all day. I've been too nervous." Jake blushed, still staring at Paulo's beautiful face. "You're nervous? Because of me?" Paulo looked surprised. "My god, Paulo. You're the most beautiful man I've ever seen, and I'm just average. Who wouldn't be nervous going out on a date with someone like you." Paulo chuckled, Jake looking at him. "Man, Jake. I've been a bundle of nerves all day too. To think that I'm here, that I just kissed the most stunningly beautiful movie star in the world." Jake took Paulo in his arms again. "You think I'm beautiful. I'm surprised by that. I think of myself as just average. You have such classic beauty." Paulo leaned in again, kissing Jake's lips, those soft juicy lips. "To me your beauty is breathtaking. Now let's feed that stomach of yours." Jake smiled opening the basket. He pulled out a large blanket, Paulo taking it from him and spreading it out on the ground. Jake pulled out dishes of food, Paulo setting them down. Both men removed their jackets, placing them on top of the basket. Within a few minutes both men were seated on the blanket eating delicious food. "This is great, Jake. Where did you get this food." "I made it all, I like to cook." Jake blushed. Paulo smiled marvelling at the delicious food. "God, you'd give Mikey a run for his money. This is all so delicious." Jake beamed, so happy that Paulo loved it. He opened a bottle of wine, pouring each of them a glass. He lifted his glass, handing Paulo his. "Here's to beauty, the beauty I see in front of me, and the beauty in your soul." Paulo felt a tear in his eye, smiling at Jake. They quietly talked, finishing their meal, both men looking at each other. They both feeling the beginnings of a new togetherness. They finished their meal, Paulo helping Jake clean up. Once the meal was finished, the two sat together beside each other, being close. "You look so beautiful in those fine clothes, Paulo. I hope you weren't expecting a dinner in a restaurant and dancing. You looked so beautiful." Paulo smiled taking Jake's hand in his. "I was thinking that. When you said to dress nice. But you've greatly surprised me. That you'd take me here, to this place that means so much to you. That in itself makes this night unbelievable." Jake beamed, feeling the love behind Paulo's words. "I wanted you to dress nice, so I could see you even more beautiful. That was my wish. But I think you'd look beautiful in anything or in nothing." Paulo looked at Jake, seeing his sudden blush. Paulo leaned in again, kissing him lightly. "So, Jake. Tell me more about yourself." Jake quietly talked, Paulo listening. Jake had been raised in L.A. living there all his life. He had one sister, Maggie, an actress also. He'd gone to university for two years, but dropped out to pursue acting. He hoped to one day finish school. Paulo was impressed by his openness and love for his family. He told Paulo about his dreams, his hopes and what he wanted his life to be. Paulo leaned in, resting his head on Jake's shoulder while he talked. When Jake had talked for almost an hour, he looked at Paulo leaning against him. "That's my life so far, and I think the next part will be even better." Paulo lifted his head smiling. He felt Jake was talking about the two of them. "So tell me about Paulo Garcia. What make the man the man I see here in front of me. The man with beauty inside and out." Paulo smiled looking out into the darkening sunset. Jake put his arm around him, now resting his head on Paulo's shoulder. Jake could feel the warmth of Paulo's body against him. Paulo thought for a moment, then began to talk. He hadn't thought he'd say much, but he began to tell Jake everything. All about his mother, what had happened with his family. He felt Jake put his arm tighter around him, his body tighter against him, to give him support. He told this beautiful man everything, from his childhood to now. After two hours, and Jake lighting a couple of large candles, Paulo was finished. Jake lifted his head, kissing Paulo on the lips. "You, my love, are a remarkable man. To have such hardship and loss, and to go on, I feel nothing but wonder and respect for you. And I believe something more. To me you are beautiful, your soul and your heart." Paulo looked into Jake's deep blue eyes, seeing something new there. Something he felt may have always been there. "You called me my love?" Paulo said, Jake feeling a little tremble in his body. "Yes, Paulo. I think I'm falling in love with you. I know it's too early to talk like that, but I feel it's so right. I've sensed it since the first moment I looked into your beautiful soulful eyes." Paulo couldn't believe what he'd just heard. "I'm just a bodyguard, Jake. I'm not someone famous or talented. I'm just a normal guy." Jake put his hand on Paulo's chin, turning his face into his. "You are you, Paulo. You are the man I see in front of me. A loving, kind, beautiful man, who I feel I need so much. I love you, Paulo. There, I've said it. I love you." Jake leaned in kissing Paulo deeply. Paulo was lost in the kiss, his body laying back, pulling Jake with him. Jake let his body take over, sinking down on the blanket with Paulo. They kissed deeply, their bodies together, both men feeling the heat and passion in their own beings. Paulo's hands went against Jake's chest, feeling the heat and strength in that tight torso. He felt two hardened nipples on two strong pecs. And he felt Jake's hardness lower rubbing against his own growing desires. He felt Jake taking control, his lust openly showing. Paulo felt Jake's hands roaming all over his body, his right hand finally going lower, and pressing against Paulo's large erection. Paulo felt Jake wanted him . Suddenly Jake pushed back, pulling away from Paulo. "I'm sorry, Paulo. I'm sorry I did that. That's not me. I'm not like that, forgive me." Paulo sat up, looking at Jake's trembling physique. Jake had his knees pulled up, his head laying on top of them. Paulo thought that he might start sobbing. "It's okay, Jake. I'm not mad at you. Actually it felt really good." Jake looked over at Paulo, Paulo seeing the tears in his eyes. "I like you so much, Paulo. I though you wanted a big he man, a forceful guy who could be strong for you. The great masculine lover. You're so masculine, I know that's what you want and need. That's not me. I'm not like that. I care too much about you to want to be forceful. I can't be that kind of man." Paulo saw now what Jake was talking about. Jake was a caring, sweet, gentle man, who wanted to make Paulo happy by thinking he had to be a strong virile man. Paulo moved over beside him, putting his arm around him. "Jake, thank you." Jake looked at him, puzzled. "Thank you, for what?" "For showing me the real you. The kind, caring, sensitive, sweet man you are. The gentle soul and loving heart. That's what I have always wanted. Not a big macho man. But you are strong, masculine and proud. I see all that in you, Jake Gyllenhaal. The man who is everything and all to me." Jake lowered his head, taking a deep breath. "I've never slept with a man, Paulo. I've slept with women, but I've never made love to a man. I know I'm gay, I know the affect men have on me. But I was always too scared to do anything about it. That was until I met you. I want you so much, I need you so much. God I'm pathetic." Paulo remained quiet for a moment, then Jake heard his laughter. Jake looked shocked, Paulo turning his head toward him. Jake saw a smile on his mirthful face. "Well, you're one up on me. I haven't been with a woman or a man." Jake looked shocked. "Really, Paulo? A beautiful man like you. That's unbelievable." Paulo sighed, Jake looking at him quietly. "I've been waiting for someone special. For the one I feel would be my first love, maybe my only love." Jake nodded, sensing Paulo's deep character and loving soul. Paulo lifted Jake's chin, looking into his blue eyes. "You're that one, Jake. You're the one I've needed, I've wanted and I've longed for." Jake saw the love in Paulo's eyes, the deep honesty and truth. "I love you, Jake. I can say that now, because I feel it. In my heart and soul." Jake looked in wonder as Paulo kissed him deeply, Jake feeling his love flow into him, his heart filling with Paulo's love. They parted their kiss, both men still clinging to each other. "Jake, I want that with you. That physical love, that emotional love. I just want it too be magical, and when we're both ready. Do you trust me enough to let me tell you when that time is?" Jake smiled at Paulo, seeing now that he wanted him just as much. "Yes, Polo. I can trust you with my soul. And my heart. And all the rest will be yours when we're both ready." Paulo smiled, hearing Jake call him that special name. "That sounds so beautiful coming from you, Jake. Could you call me that always." Jake smiled, kissing him again. "Always, Polo." Paulo smiled as the two men relaxed, laying back, arms wrapped together. Paulo lay his head on Jake's chest, both men looking up into the starry sky. "This has been the most beautiful, magical night of my life, Jake." "The same goes for me, love. It's beyond magical, Polo." They lay together, just feeling each other's newfound love, their newfound passion. Finally they had to go, the coolness of the night too much to stop their trembling. Jake turned on a flashlight, the two men walking back to Jake's car. They drove back to Michael's and Justin's home together, Paulo resting his head on Jakes shoulder, the two lovers feeling as one. When they reached the house Jake walked Paulo to the front door. They turned kissing together, lost in the passion. "I'd invite you in, but Michael's probably sitting on the stairs with a shotgun." Jake laughed, kissing Paulo again. "It's been a magical night, love." Jake said, smiling at Paulo. "When can I see you again? I'm in town for the next two weeks." Paulo sighed. "Well, tomorrow night, Mikey has the interview, and saturday is the final day for rehearsals for Justin. They're having a party here saturday night, and the tour begins sunday. Why don't we meet up here saturday night. I'm sure Justin would love to have you come to the party." "Okay, Polo. Saturday it is. " Jake kissed him again, Paulo feeling his desire and want. Paulo wanted it too, but he wanted it to be more special for both of them. "I'll let you get some sleep, Paulo. I'll call you tomorrow,love." Paulo reluctantly let go of Jake's body, kissing him once again. "Alright, love. I'll wait for your call." They parted, Paulo watching Jake get back into his car, a blown kissed exchanged, and then he was gone. Paulo sighed, walking slowly into the house. He closed the door in the semi darkness, turning around. He almost jumped out of his skin. Michael and Justin were both sitting on the bottom steps of the stairs, looking at him. "And where have you been all night, young man. It's after midnight. I told you to be home before eleven." Michael said getting up with Justin. Paulo blushed, hoping they couldn't see it in the darkness. Then he heard the laughter escaping Justin's mouth, Michael giving into it too. Paulo smiled, his own laughter entering the fray. Michael patting him on the back, Justin hugging him. "Want to tell us all about it, Polo." Justin smiled, seeing the smile on his face. "Maybe in the morning, Justin. I want to keep all this to myself for now." Michael smiled already seeing what was going on in Paulo's golden aura. "Alright, Paulo. Let's all get a good night sleep. It's been a wonderful day." Paulo smile taking the stairs two at a time, the two men seeing he was practically floating on air. Justin put his arm around Michael, kissing his cheek. "I don't think we should call him Polo anymore, Jus." "Why, Mico?" Michael smiled kissing his lips. "You said it right there, love. You call me Mico, only you." It suddenly dawned on Justin what Michael was saying. "Only Paulo's soulmate should call him that." Justin said. Michael smiled walking with his lover up the stairs. End of Chapter 63 Ah, true love.
