Date: Sat, 30 Aug 2003 09:12:59 -0700 (PDT) From: James Harrison Subject: Boyslife Episode 10 A note from the author... I know it has been such a long time since there has been a new episode, so I hope that this one will do the series justice. I am trying some new things, hoping to give myself the little kick to get back into the swing of things. I really appreciate all the comments and compliments I've gotten from people about this series. I suggest that you glance at the other episodes if you're not familiar with the storyline or characters. ENJOY! JOURNAL ENTRY -- Ben It's been two weeks since I've been here with the guys. So far, things have been working out just fine. They have their own little "family" thing going on here. It's nice to feel a part of the group. Jason and Perry are the two little love birds, it's cute to watch the two of them together. Jay and I have become close as well. I've gotten to know Perry and Josh a little as well, but Jason and I just clicked. He and I are so much alike. Sometimes we get to laughing, and we just can't stop, and it's always about something silly or childish. He definitely brings out the kid in me. I've been feeling this edge lately. Maybe it's getting out of my own little hole and into this place with the boys. Maybe it's moving out of the city and into a more suburban setting. Maybe it's the fact that my so-called friends from downtown don't call anymore. I think I need to get out. I have not been out to a club for a while. It might be nice to go dancing all night, meet up with some hot guy and have a good time. Sometimes I feel a little left out in this situation. Jason has Perry and Josh has Mark. I'm just Ben. I have whomever I want. I don't think I am ready for a serious relationship. It's so much more fun to play the field. I can have a different trick every night and not feel guilty about it. I need to be free, not tied down. I have too many other things to worry about. But then again... when I see Jason and Perry cuddling on the floor while they watch a movie, or when I see the way they look into each other's eyes, it makes me wonder. Will I ever be like that with someone? I've never really met a guy who sparked me. Some guys are very interesting, yeah. But the type of guys I go for are a lot like me. Not looking for anything serious, just a good time for the night. Yeah, I've been thinking too much lately. I'm beginning to scare myself. I definitely need to go out and have a drink or two... "Hey guys," Ben Trent said, walking in the door, trying to hold his shopping bags in one hand as he closed the door with the other. "Anyone up for going out tonight?" "Looks like you are," Jason Harmon joked from the sofa, where he sat with Perry Adamson laying his head in Jason's lap. Ben smiled. "Yeah, I felt the need to get out and have a good time tonight." Jason looked at Perry, then back up at Ben. "We might be up for that." He paused. "I do have to work tonight until 11, but we could meet you out somewhere maybe." "Sounds like a plan to me," Ben said. "Where's Josh?" "He's out with Mark," Josh said. "I know he has to work tonight too." "Okay," Ben said. "I'm gonna go figure out what to wear tonight." He disappeared out of the room. Jason looked back down at Perry and laughed softly. "He's so crazy." Perry nodded. "Yeah." "You wanna go with him tonight?" Jason asked, leaning down to peck a kiss onto Perry's forehead. Perry shrugged. "I don't know. Do you?" "It might be nice to get out," Jason said. "We haven't been out for a while." "That's true," Perry said. As he spoke, the phone began to ring. "I'll grab that," Jason said, getting up off the sofa, laying Perry's down gently. He went into the kitchen and took the phone off the wall. "Hello?" "Hi honey," His mother replied. "Mom!" Jason said. "I was thinking about you last night." "Were you?" Mrs. Harmon asked with a small giggle. "Yeah," Jason said. "So what's up?" "Can't a mother just call her son?" Mrs. Harmon asked. "Yeah, I suppose so," Jason said. "So how's Dad and Kevin?" "Your father is temperamental as always," Mrs. Harmon said. "And your brother is keeping to himself a lot lately." "Must be nice for him to have the house all to himself," Jason said. "I think he gets lonely," Mrs. Harmon said. "He's not used to it yet." "He's always welcome over here," Jason said. "There's usually somebody around." "I don't know how much your father would like Kevin spending time there with you boys," Mrs. Harmon said. "What do you think?" Jason asked. Mrs. Harmon sighed. "Jay, you and Kevin haven't always been that close." She sighed. "But you guys have always been free to do what you want. If he wants to spend time with you or your friends, I'm not going to tell him no." "I know," Jason said. "How are you and Perry?" Mrs. Harmon asked, much to Jason's surprise. He knew the gay relationship was a tough subject for his mother, and the fact that she seemed interested in it was something that made Jason feel proud of his mother. "We are doing fine Mom," Jason said. "We might be going downtown tonight with Ben." "That sounds like fun," Mrs. Harmon said. "The two of you should stop by here sometime and see your dear mother." Jason laughed. "Mother, you're too much." He talked with her for a few more minutes and then she had to go. He promised that he and Perry would stop by sometime, and then his mother said she would let Kevin join the guys for dinner one evening. Once Jason hung up the phone, he went back into the room with Perry. "So what's up?" Perry asked. He was now sitting up on the sofa, clutching a pillow. "It was just my mother," Jason said, sitting next to Perry. He wrapped his arms around Perry and held him close. "Mmm..." Perry said. "This is nice." "She wants us to stop by the house sometime," Jason said. "Really?" Perry asked. "That's interesting." "Yeah," Jason said. "I told here we would drop in sometime." Ben came thumping down the stairs at that moment and bounced into the living room. He was dressed in a new pair of low-rise sandblasted jeans and a white cotton mesh shirt that clung tightly to his body, leaving a small portion of his stomach exposed. "How do I look?" He asked. Jason and Perry pulled apart from each other. "Wow!" Perry said, smiling, and looking over at Jason, who had his mouth open in surprise. "You look nice Ben," Jason said. "Thanks," Ben said, with a big grin on his face. "I thought this would hook all the boys at the club tonight." Jason and Perry laughed. "Ok, Jay," Ben said, grabbing Jason's arm and pulling him up off the sofa. "I got this hair dye and I need you to help me put in some highlights." Jason looked at Perry and rolled his eyes playfully. Then he let Ben lead him out of the room and up the stairs. "Ben, you're crazy," Jason said. They went into the bathroom and Ben stripped down to his underwear. "I don't want to get any dye on me," He said with a giggle, as Jason rolled his eyes. "All right," Jason said, tearing off his shirt. "Let's get this done." Sabrina Harmon looked at the guy who had just walked into her salon. `Please let him be my new client.' She was not usually this excited about new clients, but tonight she was feeling lucky. The guy was absolutely gorgeous. He was Latino, with golden skin, dark eyebrows and deep brown eyes. His smile made her feel like she was going to melt. The girl at the desk greeted this god and pointed back towards Sabrina, where she stood holding her broom. He smiled at her and walked back towards her. Sabrina leaned her broom up against her desk and took a glance at herself in her mirror. "Hi," His voice had a sexy Spanish accent, and he spoke with a confidence and suave tone that made Sabrina shiver. She turned around to look at him with a smile. "Hello there!" She said. "Sabrina?" He asked. She nodded. "I'm Alex. I think you're gonna help me with this mop on my head." It was then that Sabrina noticed he was wearing a baseball cap. A lot of guys came into the salon with a hat, to hide their bad hair. "I'll try my best," She said with a soft giggle. "Why don't we lose that cap?" She held up a foam mannequin head she had for just that purpose. Alex took off his hat to reveal a head full of dark brown hair, just a shade lighter than his eyebrows. Even though Sabrina could tell he had not had his hair cut in a while, he still looked amazing. She took his cap and placed it onto her mannequin head. "Is it that bad?" Alex asked? Sabrina shook her head, and patted Alex on the arm. "You're fine. I have some ideas that will knock all the women off their socks." Alex gave a stifled laugh. "I was thinking of doing some highlights too." "I can do that," Sabrina said. She swung her station chair around and Alex sat down. "We'll do your coloring first, and then I'll shape you up." "Sounds great," Alex said. As Sabrina worked, the two of them talked and laughed. She found herself opening up, talking about all sorts of things. She mentioned Jason and the guys. She talked about her family. She even talked about her big house, which got special attention from Alex. He made mention that he would love to see it sometime. She had to put him under the dryer for a while, and while he was there, she had another appointment, one of her regulars, a little boy named Charlie. Charlie and his mother were in just about every other week. "Hey kiddo!" Sabrina said as Charlie jumped up in her chair. "Being a good guy for your Mom?" Charlie laughed, and his mother engaged in small talk with Sabrina. "Why is that boy staring at you?" Charlie asked Sabrina abruptly as she trimmed his hair. She followed his gaze to where Alex sat under the dryer. Alex saw her looking and grinned, giving her a little wave. She felt herself blushing and turned back to Charlie. "Oh he's a cutie," Charlie's mother said, patting Sabrina on the arm. "He seems to like you!" Sabrina smiled. She finished up Charlie, took the money from his mother and gave him a lollipop. "See you in two weeks!" She called to them as they walked out. Then she returned to Alex. "You were great with him,' Alex said, as Sabrina took him to the wash station and began applying conditioner to his hair. "You were watching?" Sabrina asked. "Sure," Alex admitted. "Observing someone is a good way to get to know them." "And what did you observe about me?" Sabrina asked. "You seem to be a very sweet person," Alex said. "And that's all?" Sabrina asked. Alex smiled. "The rest is for me to know." Sabrina laughed. "And just for that I think I might have forgotten how to cut hair." Alex laughed. Sabrina took him back to her chair and began to cut his hair. When she got done, she turned the chair around so that Alex could look in the mirror. "Wow!" He said. "You like?" Sabrina asked. Alex nodded. "It looks great!" "I'm glad you like it," Sabrina said, walking with Alex up to the counter. "I love it," Alex said. "You're right, those ladies will be jumping on me now." "I have a feeling they were jumping already," Sabrina said. Alex gave a shrug. "You'd be surprised." Sabrina rang up the sale and told Alex his total. He gave her quite a bit more than what she told him. "Here," She said, trying to hand one of the bills back to him. "I think you have me too much." She smiled. He pushed her hand away, back towards her. "No, I gave you the right amount." Sabrina took the money. "Thank you." As the receipt was printing out, Sabrina noticed Alex writing something on the back of one of their business cards. She handed him the receipt and he handed her the card. She turned it over and it had his name and telephone number written, with the words "Thanks again... Call Me!" She looked back at him and smiled. "I might have to give this number a call sometime." He winked at her. "I'm sure that would be fine." "Well, hopefully I'll see you again," Sabrina said. "My hair grows fast," Alex said. "I'll be making an appointment soon I'm sure." He gave her another smile and then turned and walked out, looking back at her over his shoulder. Sabrina leaned back against the wall and sighed, putting the money and card in her pocket. "You ready Perry?" Ben called up the stairs. "Yeah!" Perry called back. Ben heard thumping as Perry came out of his room and down the stairs. The guys had decided that Ben and Perry would go to the club and that Jason would meet them there after he got off work. Perry was wearing a pair of gray pants that were kind of tight and a black spandex/lycra shirt. "Looking good boy!" Ben said as Perry bounded into the foyer. "Thanks," He said. "This is one of Jason's favorite outfits. I thought I might as well wear something he loves." "You're really not into the club scene," Ben said. "I think it's cool." Perry laughed. "Yeah, I guess." The two of them went out to Ben's jeep. "So you think I'll find some hot guy to hook up with tonight?" Perry shrugged. "I don't know. I'm sure you can." Ben grinned. "Yeah, I suppose I can. This outfit is really helping me look sexy." Perry rolled his eyes. "And just think," Ben went on. "If it had not been for this club, I would have never met you guys." "That's right," Perry said. As they drove into the city, Ben kept pointing out guys he saw, either in other cars, or walking down the sidewalk. Perry just laughed. They got to the club, and Ben managed to find parking in a small lot a few blocks away. He and Perry got out of the car and began walking towards the club. "Oh look at that one!" Ben said, hitting Perry on the arm and pointing across the street. There was a group of people walking in the general direction of the club. "Which one?" Perry asked. "The guy in the blue jacket," Ben said. He fanned himself with his hand. "That's one hot piece of man there!" Perry looked at the one Ben was looking at. "He's nice," Perry said laughing. "Definitely not my type though!" They made their way into the club, paid to get in, and dropped off Perry's jacket. Then they began to make their way through the people already gathered there. "Jay should be here already," Perry said. "I'm gonna go look for him." Ben nodded and Perry turned away from him, weaving through dancing bodies on the main floor to get to the other part of the club. "Hey Sexy!" A familiar voice called out. Perry looked around to see if he could see the person who had called out to him. He finally spotted them, over by the bar. He moved in that direction. "Hey you!" Amy Martin said to him as he approached her. She had a drink in each hand. "Drinking those all by yourself?" Perry asked. Amy grinned. "Of course not!" She motioned for him to follow her. "I bumped into this really hot guy around here, and I decided to buy him a drink. I think you ought to meet him." "Oh okay," Perry said, following her. They got towards the back of the club to the area where little tables were set up. Perry saw this guy she was talking about sitting at the table. "This is the guy you wanted me to meet?" Perry asked. "Amy, I'm disappointed!" "Gee, thanks," Jason said, reaching up to pull Perry towards him. Perry laughed and gave him a quick kiss. Jason pulled Perry to sit on his lap. "You look nice," Jason whispered into Perry's ear. "Thank you," Perry said. He looked over at Amy. "So how long have you guys been here?" "I just got here like ten minutes ago," Amy said. "I am supposed to meet a friend of mine here, and while I was waiting I spotted Jason sitting all by himself." "Aww, were you all lonely baby?" Perry asked, turning to look at Jason. Jason gave him a cute smile. "I wasn't here for more than five minutes before Amy showed up, so it really wasn't that bad." He paused. "Where's Ben?" "Out looking for boys," Perry said. "He's probably got like ten phone numbers by now." The three of them laughed. "So when are we gonna go sing kareoke Jason?" Amy asked. "You're going to sing?" Perry asked, a surprised look on his face. Jason shrugged. "Amy was just telling me about this little kareoke night they just started doing over at The Pub." "Sounds nice," Perry said. "Yeah," Jason said. "I thought so." Amy giggled. "I'm sure you'll be great!" She took a sip of her drink. "Look over there at Ben, getting it on with that little pretty boy." Jason and Perry looked over to where Ben was, dancing on the main floor with a guy who looked either 17 or 18. "Aww... they look cute together," Jason said. "He looks a little young to me," Perry said. "Hey if Ben has his hooks in, that boy just got lucky," Jason said jokingly. The three of them laughed. Meanwhile, Ben was dancing with the boy he had bumped into a few minutes earlier as he was coming out of the bathroom. Bathrooms at clubs were not the ideal place to pick up guys, but as soon as Ben almost knocked this kid down, he was determined to latch on to him. The kid gave him a nervous look, but Ben could tell that the kid was checking him out. The kid was young, maybe 18, but Ben thought he looked hot. He was wearing a sleeveless shirt, revealing small but round arms. He had jet black hair and brown eyes. After bumping into him, Ben went back to dancing. He had already had a few drinks so by now he was loosened up. He saw the boy a few minutes later, dancing with a small group of friends. Ben made his way casually over to him and began dancing next to him. Then the boy turned around and saw Ben there. The two of them smiled at each other, and soon they were dancing closer to each other. "You look nice!" Ben said into the boy's ear. "Thanks!" The boy replied. "So do you." "I'm Ben," Ben said. "Matt," The boy replied. Ben nodded and continued to dance with him. After a good while of dancing, Matt went to the upper level with his friends, waving goodbye to Ben. Ben danced for a little while longer, even getting approached by a few guys. But none of those guys seemed to strike Ben as much as Matt had. Ben decided to head upstairs to see if Matt and his friends were still there. As he was about to go up the stairs, he felt someone grab his arm. He turned to see Jason and Perry there with Amy. "Hey bud," Jason said. "We're gonna head off now. You gonna be ok?" "Yeah," Ben said. Jason leaned in closer."Ben have you been drinking?" "Yeah, I've had a few," Ben said. "Nothing big." Jason gave him a firm look. "Ben, you know you shouldn't drive now." Ben shrugged. "I've got my car over at the public lot a few blocks down. I can leave it there until the morning." "Do you want Perry to drive the jeep home?" Jason asked. "If he wants to," Ben said. "I can get a cab home or something." He pulled his keys out of his pocket and gave them to Jason. "You be careful," Jason said, kissing Ben on the cheek. "Go get that boy you were dancing with earlier." Ben laughed. "He's been checking you out all night from up there," Jason pointed to the upstairs level. He gave Ben a smile, patted him on the chest and turned to leave with Perry and Amy. Ben bounced up the stairs and found Matt and his friends sitting at one of the little bar tables by the railing overlooking the main dance floor. One of the boys saw Ben come out of the stairwell and whispered something to Matt. In a few moments, the other guys disappeared, leaving Matt at the table alone. Ben laughed to himself. He went and bought himself another drink, and then headed over to where Matt sat. "Hey there," Ben said. "All alone now?" Matt laughed. "Yeah I guess so." "Mind if I sit down?" Ben asked, pulling out the chair that was next to Matt. Matt smiled. "Sure." Ben sat down, placing his drink on the table. "You come here often?" Matt shook his head. "No, this is my first time actually." "You like it?" Ben asked. "Yeah, it's nice," Matt said. The two of them talked for a while, flirting and laughing together. Then Matt's friends came back, telling him they wanted to leave. "Would you like to go get some ice cream or something?" Matt asked Ben. "That would be nice," Ben said. Matt turned back to his friends, and after a moment they left without him. "They're not coming too?" Ben asked. "Nope," Matt said. "Is that ok?" Ben smiled. "Couldn't be better." Josh and Mark were cuddling on the sofa, talking, when Jason, Perry and Amy came in the door. It was just after 1am in the morning. "Hey guys!" Amy said, coming over to give the two of them a hug. "Hey," Josh said. "You guys go out or something?" "Yeah," Perry said, throwing a set of keys down on the table. "We went out to the club with Ben." "Sounds like fun," Josh said. "Where's Ben?" Mark asked. "He's with some boy," Jason said, sitting down on the chair. "Excuse me you guys," Amy said, walking quickly out of the room. "What's with her?" Josh asked, after she left. "A little tipsy," Perry said. "She had to use the ladies room." Josh and Mark laughed. "You guys gonna take her home?" "Actually I am gonna give her a ride," Jason said. "Perry has to work in the morning, and I want him to get his rest." Perry smiled, shrugging his shoulders. "Yeah, make me feel like a baby." Jason pulled Perry into his lap. "You are a baby. My baby." He kissed Perry playfully. "You guys are too much," Mark said. "I don't think so," Josh said, leaning over to kiss Mark. Jason and Perry stood. "I'm gonna go get this guy into bed," Jason said. "I'll be back down in a bit." "I think we're gonna head to bed ourselves," Josh said, looking into Mark's eyes. Jason laughed, pulling on Perry's hand. "Well, good night then guys!" The two of them went out of the room. "You think it's time for bed?" Mark asked, playing with the buttons on Josh's shirt. "Yes I do," Josh said, burying his face into Mark's neck, kissing it gently. "Oh my!" A loud voice came from the hallway. It was Amy, coming back into the living room. Josh looked at Mark, who rolled his eyes, and then got up to help Amy over to the chair. "Jason is gonna be down in a few minutes to take you home," Josh said to her, helping her to sit down. "Oh all right," Amy said. "Do you need anything?" Josh asked, putting a hand on her shoulder. "A glass of water?" "That would be great," Amy said. Josh went into the kitchen, followed by Mark. "Poor girl," Josh said, getting a glass out of the cabinet. "She's silly," Mark said. "Wait here," Josh said. He took the glass of water back out to Amy. "Thanks," Amy said, carefully taking the glass from Josh's hands and sipping on it slowly. Josh knelt down on the floor in front of her. She gave him a smile and handed him back the glass. "You ok?" Josh asked, putting his hand on her knee. Amy nodded. "Yeah, I'm good." Jason came into the room then, and Josh stood up. "You ready to go now girl?" Jason asked Amy. She stood up, holding on to Josh's arm. "Yeah," She said, giving Josh a small smile. "You take care of her now, ok?" Josh said to Jason, patting his cousin on the back gently. "I will," Jason said, kissing Josh on the cheek. He then wrapped his arm around Amy's waist and led her out the door. Josh watched them go and then went back into the kitchen, where Mark was waiting for him, leaning up against the counter. "Now, where were we?" Josh asked in a soft whisper, leaning into Mark and kissing his neck up and down. "Are you trying to seduce me mister?" Mark asked, pulling gently back from Josh's kisses. "Do you want me to try harder?" Josh asked, bending down to his knees and burying his face into Mark's crotch area, playfully nibbling at Mark's package. "Ok, you win," Mark said with a soft giggle. "Let's go." The two of them made their way into Josh's bedroom. They fell on the bed together, locked in a passionate kiss. "You're bad," Mark said to Josh, as Josh rolled on top of him. "I know," Josh murmured, nibbling on Mark's earlobe. Mark began unbuttoning Josh's shirt slowly, running his hands all over Josh's firm chest. "Mmm..." Josh moaned softly as Mark slipped Josh's shirt off and onto the floor. "Now who's the bad one?" Josh asked. Mark smiled and pulled Josh into him, kissing him hard.... The next morning Sabrina slept in late and then cooked herself an omlette for breakfast. She did not have to work until that evening, and was trying to plan her day. As she was finishing her tea, her doorbell rang. She looked at the clock. It was a little after eight in the morning. She wondered who could be coming to her door that early. She shook her head, getting up from her chair, tying her silk robe tighter around her waist. She opened the door without even checking to see who it was, and a surprise was waiting for her. As she looked up she saw Alex standing there, a huge grin on his face, a bouquet of flowers in his hand. "Good morning," He said warmly. "I hope you won't think I'm being a stalker or anything." Sabrina managed a little smile through her shock and surprise. "Well, the thought is racing through my head at this very moment." She paused, thinking. "How did you know where I live?" Alex beamed. "I pulled a few strings." Sabrina put her hand on her hip. "Oh?" "It really helped that you were the only Sabrina Harmon in the phone book," Alex said with a little giggle. "I would have been very embarrased if it wasn't you." "Well, please come in," Sabrina said, stepping back and allowing Alex to come into her house. He handed her the flowers and she accepted them with a smile. "I hope you like them," Alex said, shutting the door. Sabrina nodded. "I do, thank you." The two of them walked into the kitchen together. "Would you excuse me for a moment?" Sabrina said. "I would like to put on some clothes." Alex laughed. "I'm sorry, I kind of showed up without notice." "Well," Sabrina said. "You're lucky I like you." She smiled. "But you're not getting off the hook that easy mister." Alex grinned. "All right, you got me. Go get dressed then." "I will," Sabrina said, running up the stairs to her bedroom. She threw on a cute little pair of khaki capri pants and a tight little white tank top, covered by an open button down plaid print shirt. SHe threw on her sandals, brushed her hair and then ran back down the stairs. "My my!" Alex said, looking at her warmly as she came back into the kitchen. "Don't we look nice today?" Sabrina smiled. "Thank you." She sat down at the table next to him. "Now that I'm all pretty I want some answers." Alex sat back in his chair, folding his arms across his chest. "Well what do you want to know?" "Well, why are you so obsessed with me for one?" Sabrina asked. "You just met me yesterday." "Actually, I had seen you for a while," Alex said. Sabrina gave him a puzzled look, and he sat up in his chair, resting his hands on the table. "I had been passing your shop for a couple of weeks, and you always seemed to stand out among the rest of them," Alex explained. "I would always see you smiling and happy, and you are definitely the most beautiful girl there." Sabrina beamed. "Go on," She said. "I am big on intuition," Alex said. "So one day when I passed and you weren't there I decided to go in and ask about you. That's when I made my appointment." "And that gets us to yesterday," Sabrina said, standing and going over to her refrigerator, where she pulled out a bottled water. She offered one to Alex, who nodded. She came back to the table and handed him a bottle. "But what still puzzles me is how you got here today?" "That was easy honey," Alex said. "You gave me your card at the salon yesterday. I looked you up in the phone book and decided to come by." "Yes but why?" Sabrina asked, sitting back down. "It's kind of that intuition thing," Alex said. "I can sense things about people when I first meet them, and I can tell that you are a very special person." Sabrina felt her cheeks growing warm. "I don't know what to say." "Oh come on," Alex said, giving her a grin. "You know you like it." "I do!" Sabrina said. "But something this strange doesn't usually happen to me." She laughed. "It sounds a lot like something Jason would come up with." "Jason?" Alex asked. "Yeah, my brother," Sabrina said. "He's a big drama queen." "Sounds like my kind of guy then," Alex said with a wink. "He's like my best friend," Sabrina said. "Which reminds me, I wanted to go over there and see him today. He probably needs a haircut." "It sure helps when your sister is all good like that," Alex said. "Well, I don't want to keep you from your plans..." "Well, I didn't have any set plans," Sabrina said, cutting him off. "So I'll just take you with me." She patted Alex on the hand and then got up to pick up the phone. She dialed Jason's number, and waited. "Hello?" A sleepy sounding Perry answered the phone. "Hey babe whats up?" Sabrina asked. "Not much," Perry said. "I just got up really." "Did I wake you?" Sabrina asked. "No, no," Perry said. "I was just being lazy in bed." Sabrina laughed. "I hear ya. Hey, is my brother awake yet?" Perry's voice got softer, "Are you awake yet?" He said to someone else. His voice grew louder again. "Yeah, he's awake, he managed to nod at me." "Well you tell him I'm coming over there to see him," Sabrina said. "And I'm bringing a friend." "Sounds cool," Perry said. "How's his hair?" Sabrina asked. "Do you think he needs a trim?" Perry laughed. "Yeah, he'll like that." "I'm sure he will," Sabrina said. "Well, I am going to give you guys a little time to roll out of bed and get dressed..." She laughed, as did Perry. "And then we'll be over." "All right, I'll probably be at work then, so I'll see you later," Perry said. "See ya sweetie!" Sabrina said, hanging up the phone. "It's all set then Mister Alex," She said, returning to the table. " Alex laughed. "You're one amazing girl, you know that?" Sabrina beamed. Ben opened his eyes, barely aware of his surroundings. As he layed there, he began to feel his body again, and the arm and leg wrapped around it. He turned his head to the side to see a head full of jet black hair. Ben smiled, leaning back into the pillow, remembering the hot action of the early morning hours. He had fucked the kid two times and even let the kid fuck him once. They had gotten out of the club and walked to a little diner nearby for some ice cream and then they took a cab back to the kid's apartment that he shared with his siter. Ben was trying hard to remember the kid's name, but with the drinks and the sex and only about an hour of sleep for his body, he could not think of it. As he stirred, so did the kid. Ben wrapped his arm around the slender body next to him, pulling the kid closer to him, which drew a little moan from the kid. And then Ben remembered that his name was Matt. He smiled to himself as his hand caressed Matt's back. He was too exausted to moake any other movements. He closed his eyes and tried falling back asleep. As he lay there he felt the warmth of lips gently kissing his chest, nibbling on his nipple. He could himself growing hard again as Matt was getting more agressive with his kissing. Soon Matt had moved on top of Ben, on his hands and knees, sucking eagerly on Ben's nipples. Then he moved his mouth up to Ben's neck, sucking and gently biting on his skin. Then Matt layed his body on top of Ben's pressing his lips against Ben's, kissing him long and hard. "What a nice way to wake up," Ben said as Matt finally pulled away from him. Now they were both hard and awake. Matt smiled. "Man, last night was awesome." "I agree," Ben said, runing his hand down Matt's back and over his small, round ass cheeks. Matt gave Ben a naughty look and slid his way down Ben's body until his face was in Ben's crotch area. He licked Ben's erect dick up and down the shaft, flicking his tounge over Ben's mushroom head. That gave Ben chills all up and down his body, causing him to moan out loud. That was all the signal Matt needed, and in one motion he took Ben's large dick into his mouth, all the way, until the tip of the head hit the back of his throat. Then he began to suck on Ben's dick, starting slowly at first, then picking up the pace, adding his hands, pulling up and down on the shaft as he sucked. Ben rolled his eyes back and continued to moan as Matt intently sucked him off. Matt began to use his hands and feel Ben's chest, his legs, gently playing with his balls. They had sex again, rough and urgent. It lasted nearly two hours and by the time both of them had cum, Ben was once again exausted. "I need to get home sometime," Ben said with a sigh. "Don't leave," Matt said, wrapping his arms around Ben's body. Ben laughed. "My my, aren't we attached." "No, it's just nice and warm with you here next to me," Matt said, giving Ben a smile and then a quick kiss on the cheek. Ben made himself sit up in the bed. "I do have to get going. Hand me the phone will ya?" Matt let out a little sigh and then got out of the bed, crossing the room to his desk. He picked up the phone and tossed it back at Ben. It missed and landed on the bed. "Thanks," Ben said, grabbing the phone. He dialed the number to the apartment. "What now Sabrina?" Jason answered the phone, laughing. "Who are you calling Sabrina?" Ben asked, laughing at his friend. "Oh, it's you Ben," Jason said. He laughed again. "We just hung up the phone with Sabrina and thought she was calling back." "Oh okay," Ben said. "Well, hey, I was wondering if one of you guys could give me a lift home." "You're all done with your boy?" Jason asked. "Very funny Jay," Ben said, rolling his eyes, even though he knew that Jason could not see it. "Well, I guess I could come and get you," Jason said. "Sabrina is supposed to come by and cut my hair, but I don't think she would mind waiting." "What about Josh, is he around?" Ben asked. "Yeah, Josh is still in bed with Mark," Jason said. "I don't mind coming though." "Are you sure?" Ben asked. "I wouldn't offer to come if I wasn't sure," Jason said. He laughed. "You worry too much." "All right," Ben said. "Let me give the phone to Matt and he can tell you how to get here." "Ok," Jason said. Ben stood up and handed the phone to Matt. "Here, can you give my roommate directions?" Matt nodded and took the phone. Ben grabbed his clothes and slowly got dressed. He found a little piece of paper and a pen on Matt's dresser and wrote down his phone number and e-mail address for Matt. He liked the boy, and there was definitely the possibility of future hookups. "He said he will be here in about 20 minutes," Matt said to Ben after he hung up the phone. "Cool," Ben said. "Why don't we go watch some TV or something while we wait?" Matt shrugged. "I'll be out in a minute." Ben walked out of Matt's bedroom and went into the living room and sat down on the sofa and turned on the television. Matt came out a few minutes later, dressed in running pants and a tank top. He sat down on the sofa next to Ben. They did not really say much to each other and soon the buzzer rang. "That should be Jason," Ben said, standing. Matt stood up with him and they went out of the apartment and into the hallway. "I had a great night," Matt said softly. Ben looked at him and smiled. "So did I," He said. He leaned down and gave Matt a quick kiss on the cheek and then turned and walked down the stairs, and out to where Jason was waiting in his car. "Take me home please," Ben said, flopping into the passenger seat. "Hangover?" Jason asked, backing out of the parking space. Ben looked at his friend and rolled his eyes. "You have no idea." He said with a laugh. Sabrina and Alex had arrived at the boys' house to find only Josh and Mark there, getting ready to head out. "Hey you guys," Sabrina said, almost bumping into her cousin as she walked in the front door. Alex followed her timidly, shutting the door behind him. "Hey beautiful," Josh said, giving his cousin a quick hug. "Jason went to pick up Ben, he should be back soon." He let go of her and saw Alex standing there. "And who is this?" He asked. Sabrina laughed and then made the introductions. "Well, Mark and I are running out now," Josh said. "I wish we could stay and chat." "It's cool," Alex said, giving Mark and Josh a little wave out the door. "Nice to meet you," Mark said, as he followed Josh out the door. "Well," Sabrina said. "I guess we wait." "Yeah," Alex said, laughing softly. He followed Sabrina into the living room. "This is a nice little place." "I agree," Sabrina said, sitting down on the sofa. She threw her bag on the floor next to her. "You really get used to it here. It feels so cozy." Alex smiled, looking around the room. He noticed the photographs on the wall. "Is that your brother?" He asked, pointing at the photo of Jason. Sabrina nodded. "I could tell," Alex said. "I think it was the eyes." Sabrina giggled. "It's not hard to tell that we're related." "Is that his boyfriend?" Alex asked, pointing to a photo of Jason and Trevor, Jason's ex. "Well, his ex-boyfriend," Sabrina said. "Jason's actually dating Perry now," She pointed to Perry's picture. "I see," Alex said, nodding. He stared at the pictures for another moment, and then sat down next to Sabrina on the sofa. "Sabrina," He said softly, putting his hand on top of hers. "I know we've barely known each other, but I think you are an amazing person." Sabrina smiled. She wasn't sure what to say in response to that. Alex looked into her eyes. "There's something I have to tell you," He said. "What?" Sabrina asked. Alex paused. "I hope this doesn't change what we have between each other. I really feel drawn to you." "Oh for heaven's sake Alex!" Sabrina said with a laugh. "You're worse than my brother. Just come out with it." Alex gave a little grin. "Well..." He began. He opened his mouth to continue, but was cut off by the door slamming open and laughter as Jason and Ben stumbled into the house. Sabrina shot Alex a look and then stood to greet her brother and Ben. "Ooh Sabrina who is the hottie?" Ben asked, sauntering up to Alex, and holding out his hand. "I'm Alex Marquez," Alex said, shaking Ben's hand warmly. "Well, you look like candy to me," Ben said with a laugh. He turned to where Sabrina stood, her arm around her brother's waist. "Honey, I hope you don't mind if I steal your boy away from you." "He's not exactly my boy," Sabrina said, sticking her tounge out playfully at Alex. "So you can have him." "Gee thanks!" Alex said. "You heard her, you're mine!" Ben said, grabbing Alex by the hand and pulling him out of the room. The two of them returned a moment later, laughing. "Crazy guys," Jason said, shaking his head. He turned to his sister. "So you wanna go out on the patio and cut this hair?" "That sounds good," Sabrina said. "Well, as much as I'd love to stay and enjoy the company, I am beat," Ben said. "I'm going to go get some sleep." "It was nice to meet you Ben," Alex said. "Oh the pleasure was mine!" Ben said, giving a silly bow, waving his hand in front of him. Jason reached down and slapped Ben's ass, causing him to jump. Sabrina and Alex laughed. "Get upstairs you dummy," Jason said with a laugh. Ben gave a little pout and then left the room. "Where did you find that crazy guy?" Sabrina asked, picking up her bag and following her brother out through the dining room and out onto the patio. "Don't ask me," Jason said, sliding the patio door. "You guys have a really nice home," Alex said, following them outside. "Well thanks!" Jason said, smiling. He offered Alex a patio chair. "We've really worked hard to make it what it is." "Believe me, it's really hard," Sabrina said sarcastically. "Four gay guys in one house. Do you think there's any problems with decorating here?' Alex laughed. "Yeah, I guess you're right." "She just wishes she could be as good as us," Jason said. "You better watch it mister," Sabrina said, pulling out a pair of scissors and pointing them at his head. The three of them chatted while Sabrina cut Jason's hair. Once they got done, they cleaned up the patio and then went inside, where Jason poured them all glasses of soda. "I feel so much better," Jason said, looking at himself in a mirror. "Yes I know I do such a good job," Sabrina said. "Of course you do," Jason said, blowing her a kiss. "I know she made me look good," Alex said. "That didn't take much work," Sabrina said. Alex blushed a little. "Well, now that we're all looking sexy, what do you say to a little lunch?" Jason said. "I'm in the mood for some Chineese." "That sounds good to me," Alex said. "What about you Sabrina?" "I guess so," Sabrina said. She turned to her brother. "Jay would you excuse Alex and I for a moment?" Jason gave her a questioning look, but nodded and quitely left the room. "Is everything ok?" Alex asked. "I want you to tell me what you were going to say earlier," Sabrina said, looking Alex in the eye. "I'm going to be honest with you, I feel this strong feeling for you Alex, and I want to explore this, but I need you to be honest with me." Alex nodded. "Well Sabrina, I'm a bisexual." Sabrina didn't know what to say. "If you're not okay with that, I'll understand," Alex said. "At least you and I can be friends." Sabrina shook her head. "Alex, I've been around gay guys my whole life." She gave a little laugh. "It's nice that you're at least half attracted to me." Alex stepped closer to her. "I am very attracted to you," He said softly. "I don't know what is, but I can't ignore it." The two of them were face to face now. Sabrina looked up into his eyes. "This is crazy," She whispered. "What?" Alex asked, leaning down into her. "I'm not usually like this," Sabrina said, feeling his breath on her skin. "Neither am I," Alex said softly, pressing his lips to hers, as she wrapped her arms around him. "Wahoo!" Jason's child-like shout burst the moment like a bubble. Sabrina pulled away from Alex, glaring at him. "Jason, I'm going to kill you!" She said, running after him.
