Date: Sun, 19 May 2013 12:48:41 -0700 (PDT) From: Caleb Wilson Subject: Je t'aime Chapter 2 Part 2 Inside the car Jason turned to Reuben asking "Where do you live?" "In the Springfield area." "Yeah, I've heard of it, but you'll have to direct me." "Okay, Jason," and Reuben's body reacted with shivers coursing through it from head to toe, as the name of the person he had fallen in love with from the moment he had seen him, rolled off his tongue. "Turn right when you exit the school and take a left at the first set of traffic lights. Then keep heading along the main road till you hit the next set of lights, then turn right and you're in the Springfield area." "Okay, have you thought of anything to say besides, umm, uh?" "Yeah, you know I didn't make that bet. So why are you being so nice about it?" "Now you've got me. Not sure why, but when I saw the expression on your face when I spoke to you, I decided I wanted to know more about you." "What do you want to know?" "Firstly, because of your size I thought you were a bit younger, but now I realise that when talking to your friend it seems you must be a bit older." "Yeah, I'm fifteen going on sixteen in a month's time." Jason turned right at the second set of traffic lights as he'd been instructed to, then headed down the road waiting for the boy at his side to give him further instructions. "Turn left at the next the road on the left and I live at number 36." They arrived outside Reuben's house and both sat waiting for the other to break the silence. Inevitably they both spoke at once till Jason insisted that Reuben had his say first. "Will I see you at school on Monday?" "No, I've finished all my A level exams. So there is no necessity for me to attend school again. I don't think I'll be attending St Peter's again except for the end of term meeting." Reuben's heart sank. He sat with head bowed, his hopes of getting to know Jason Samuels better shattered. He couldn't believe that fate could be so cruel, to take away his one chance of happiness when for the first time in three years he was able to speak to the person of his awake and sleeping thoughts. "What's up, Reuben?" His thoughts were invaded by Jason's voice. "Uh nothing. So we won't be seeing each other again." "If that's the way you want it, okay, but I was hoping that if you didn't have anything to do, we could meet up later this evening." He was flying like an albatross, he was soaring a thousand feet above the ground, he was gliding on warm thermal currents of air higher and higher, then swooping down, wheeling and turning. "Reuben." "Uh umm... what?" "Are you going to answer my question or just sit there with a stupid look on your face?" "Oh, yeah, anytime this evening. Call me and we can meet up," and Reuben Taylor was back in dreamland once again. "Good idea if I had your phone number. Oh, for Christ's sake, Reuben, wake up, will you? Give me your bloody phone number." Startled he came to his senses. "Sorry, I forgot," and he supplied Jason with his phone number. "So are you going to get out of the car or not?" "Where are you going?" "Home." "Can I come?" "You'd better ask your parents first." "They're not at home. They won't get back till after six." "Well, just in case, call them and tell them you've gone out with a friend." Two minutes later with the phone call out of the way they were heading in the direction of Jason's home. Reuben had emotions running through him that had him imagining all sorts of scenarios until his thoughts were broken by Jason. "Reuben, are you going to answer me or sit there looking all gaga?" Again he came back to earth. "Yeah, what's it you want to know?" "Jeez, Reuben, I've asked you twice already." "Umm... sorry, Jason. I wasn't paying attention. What was it?" "Is my company so boring that you have to be a million miles away thinking about something else? The question was why did you ask to come along when we can meet up later this evening?" "No, you're not boring, Jason. You're... you're... oh bollocks." "Come on spit it out, whatever you have to say. I won't hold it against you." Reuben now totally carried away by his emotions and without thinking said "Je t'aime, Jason. That's why I asked to accompany you." Jason slowed the car and pulled over to the side of the road. "Did I hear you right, Reuben?" "Oh God, Jason, I'm sorry. I just got carried away. I've been wanting to meet you from the first time I saw you three years ago and now my mind is going all haywire." "Okay, don't worry about it, but why say it in French?" "Just came out. I can't even speak French, but I've heard the phrase and liked it. I even practise saying it in a sexy way in front of a mirror, but it didn't come out the way I planned and I uh... I dunno, just said it." Jason looked at the nervous boy at his side and instinctively to put the boy's mind at ease, stretched his hand out and stroked the boy's hair. Then turning back to the task of getting them back to his house, he got them back into the mainstream traffic and headed for home. Reuben feeling Jason's fingers run through his hair had made his whole body turn to jelly. He wished that the hand hadn't been removed so soon. He fixed his eyes on the driver and let them remain there. Jason, noticing the younger boy staring at him out of the corner of his eye, remarked "Reuben, will you quit staring at me." "Why?" "Why? Because it's distracting me while I'm driving. That's why." "Oh, okay," and he averted his gaze and fixed his eyes on the road ahead. He was thinking whether he should ask him if he had a girl friend. `What can he do, he thought, only tell me to mind my own business and not be nosey. On the other hand he could kick me out of the car. Better keep my mouth shut and see how things go.' "Okay, you don't have to keep quiet as well, Reuben. I just told you not to stare. It doesn't mean you have to sit there like a dummy." "Umm... ah... no, I was just thinking, Jason." "About what?" "Umm... uh... nothing." Jason smiled saying "And precisely how do you think about umm... uh... nothing?" "Oh, okay, I was wondering if you think I'm a weirdo for saying what I said earlier." "Is what I think about you very important to you?" "Yeah, it is, very." "Okay then. I don't know much about you, but what I do is to my liking. That's why you're sitting next to me in the car." "You're not turned off about what I said earlier?" "Oh, you mean your little bit of French? No, actually I was quite flattered, didn't think that anybody could feel that way about me." "That's why my friend Dawn got you to talk to me. She knew how I felt about you and organised us to get together." "That's okay, but didn't either of you stop to think that I might not want to take part in this little charade?" "I did. I told her that you might have a girlfriend and that you wouldn't be interested in getting to know me." "Seems like your friend didn't pay much attention to what you said." "Yeah, that's Dee all over. She just goes ahead and does what she has to, no matter what you tell her. Now when I get to school on Monday she's going to bend my ear with all her questions." "You're lucky to have a friend that cares about you." "I know. She's one of the reasons that makes school bearable and at times even enjoyable. So what are you going to do if you're not returning to school as of now?" "I was going to spend a year in Australia with my elder sister, but my dad has just been told he has to have a heart bypass operation. So I'm going to help my mother out in the shop for the next few months, or maybe till I go to university." "Oh, sorry about your dad and the trip to Australia," but underneath Reuben was happy that it had been cancelled. At least now he knew he had a chance of seeing more of Jason. "It's okay. No big deal. I can always go at a later date." "Can I come over and visit?" The older boy steered the car into a driveway, then stopped it outside the garage. He looked over at the younger boy who was staring at him in expectation. "Yeah, you'll be welcome anytime, but if you come during opening hours I'll be at the shop." "Where is the shop?" "Just back there on the main road," Jason said, indicating with his hand. "Because it's quite a distance to the nearest supermarket we do quite a lot of business." He parked, then exited the car with Reuben following the older boy towards the front door. "Would it be okay if I helped you out in the shop after school and when the summer holidays come?" Jason opened the front door and ushered the younger boy inside, then answered his question. "Thanks, Reuben, that would be nice having you around, but I think it would be better if you spent more time out with your friends rather then stuck in a shop." "Is that a nice way of saying you don't want me in the shop?" Jason looked at the expression on the younger boy's face which had a look of disappointment on it. "Écoute-moi, mon petit ami. Je t'aime aussi, but I'm thinking of your well being and don't want you spending your free time stuck in a shop." "You said it. I heard you. You said it. Je t'aime. You did, didn't you? Say it again. Please, Jason, say it again." He looked at the small expectant face in front of his. He leaned forward and brushed their lips together, then whispered "Je t'aime, Reuben." Reuben was flying again, he was a thousand feet above ground, he felt arms around him and he was soaring even higher till he felt a hand brushing his face, then a voice. "Reuben, come on, say something for God's sake." Reuben looked up into the concerned face and eyes staring at him then he smiled. "You said you loved me and what else did you say?" "I said `listen to me, my little friend. I love you too' and then I spoke in English, saying I was thinking of your well being. If I'd known what effect it would have on you I'd have kept my mouth shut. God, I thought you were going to collapse. I had to hold you up. Can you stand on your own two feet now?" "No, I need your arms around me a little longer." Jason could see that the boy was back to normal, but still held him as he got just as much pleasure from their close contact. "Reuben, let's go inside the house instead of standing here in the hallway," he said. Unwrapping his arms from the younger boy and taking him by the hand, he led him to the sitting room. Inside he took a seat, pulling the younger boy on top of him. Reuben was happy to let Jason lead him to the sitting room. Then when he was pulled on top of the older boy he just let his emotions take over and let his lips seek the lips that had whispered `I love you,' and when he found them they united and then opened as their tongues continued to express what their lips had said earlier. Both boys were now flying. They flew together, in each others arms they soared and dived always in perfect harmony thousands of feet above ground in a world of their own and then they were back in the sitting room as Jason brought them back to reality by breaking the kiss. "Reuben." "Yes, Jason?" "I'm seventeen and will turn eighteen in a couple of weeks and I know I'm attracted to other males. I had wank sessions with a couple of other boys when I was younger, but no serious relationships. With you something inside of me just seemed to know that I want to take this a lot further than just casual sex. You're not quite sixteen. I think you should stop and think about this and discuss it, if not with your friends, at least with your parents, if you want us to be more involved." "You must be joking," the younger boy blurted out. "Think about it. It's what I've been doing for the last three years, and as for my parents, when I told them last year that I thought I was more into boys than girls, they said `Well, if that was my choice, so be it.' Jason, I've had you in my thoughts and dreams for the last three years. I've had countless orgasms with you being the main participant in my sexual fantasies. So how much longer do you want me to think about it?" Jason put his hand behind the younger boy's head and pulled him forward till their lips met, at the same time stopping him talking. Now Reuben's tongue that had been ranting on seconds ago was entwining itself around his in a gentle caress, then twirling and thrusting sending shivers of delight to his loins that were in a state of full arousal. Suddenly Jason felt Reuben's hand start to stroke and squeeze his manhood. Taking the cue from his younger companion, he lowered his hand to fasten onto Reuben's erection, then suddenly sat upright breaking the kiss. "Uh, what's wrong, Jason?" "Uh, nothing, Reuben," he said, "but this feels kind of big for a boy your size," giving Reuben's penis a squeeze, "Actually it's bigger than mine." "Oh God!" Reuben exclaimed. "Does that put you off?" "Put me off? What kind of a stupid question is that? I'm not worried if your dick is bigger or smaller than mine. I'm not in love with your dick, but truthfully it is quite surprisingly big for a boy of your stature." "Is it a lot bigger than yours, Jason?" the younger boy enquired. "And how big is yours?" "I'm not too sure, but I would say I'm slightly above average for my height, but yours is way over that." "No, it's not. It's only slightly larger than yours, but it is quite fat." "How the hell did you get a cock like that?" "How am I supposed to know? And can we stop talking about my cock?" Jason pulled the boy into his arms and crushed him to his body. "Sorry, Rube, I was just surprised you being so small and all. Didn't expect it of you." "So can we carry on where we left off, Jason?" "Sure, but I'd like to see what I'm going to be handling. So how's about taking it out?" "Yeah, well, I'm not the only one who's going to have to expose himself. Get yours out as well."
