Date: Mon, 26 Aug 2002 21:13:02 -0400 (EDT) From: Rob Andresen Subject: A Man After Midnight Have you ever had one of those moments when everything in your life suddenly changes with just a single eye-opening event? You know the ones, the first time you saw a man naked and got hard or the first time you saw your child? I was privileged to have seen both in my life although it was a development born out of pain and denial for me. And yet, here I was at 45, coming out to myself and the community for the first time since divorcing my wife, exploring the gay lifestyle in a youth obsessed culture that at least valued my commitment to health. It was an interesting feeling, wanting to be a part of something that was alien to me in so many ways, aching for the connection to others who felt just like me and not quite knowing how to go about finding them. Sure, there were a few men at the bars that were around my age or older but there was something about them I couldn't seem to accept. Maybe it was their exceptionally effeminate mannerisms or the lisping brainless conversation or just the vain attempt at hiding the signs and scars of experience with flashy clothes and a hint of mascara but I didn't care for what I saw. Yet where else was there for me? I had found this place largely by catching their float at the last gay pride parade as I and a couple of coworkers passed by for lunch. Gino made some rude comment and I was captivated by the go-go- boy gyrating atop the wobbly float to hammering music, simulating an act I was almost desperate to try with another man. I caught the name of the bar on the side but it took me another four months to get up the courage to venture out. I mean, this had been my town for years and my wife and boys still lived here as well. I had to keep part of my desires secret for fear of being exposed and yet I had these desires of being exposed with another man. The torture of knowledge and indecision finally caught up with me and I dressed for the occasion: faded jeans over hiking boots and a burgundy shirt with a diagonal accent stripe. Hey, I was old, not out of style! My heart was pounding as I parked the car in a lot five blocks away, just to disguise my destination. The lights over the doorway were bright and the thumping music vibrated the sidewalk as I neared the door. A fiver for cover and a bored expression from the bouncer and I walked into a dimly lit cavern that smelled of men and cologne and sweat and smoke. The faces turned toward the open door flashed into my mind, a snapshot of bored and desperate men lined against a liquor stained bar. I retreated to the far side, angling against the dark wall to gain perspective and figure out my next move. There were stairs leading down to a wall of sound I imagined held writhing bodies drenched in sweat and a doorway that led to a room filled with flashes of light and music less loud. Another hallway seemed to hold a line of men that moved forward slowly if at all and against the furthest wall, a small stage draped in worn rainbow flags with a sparkled ball above. I guess I was just in time for the show to start since someone closed the door to the lower dance floor and a drum roll sounded over aged speakers before Don Pardo's gay twin announced, "And now, boys and girls of all ages, it's time for Mr. C's Nite-time revue and everyone's favorite retro group Abba-nana!" The lights dimmed and a spotlight hit the rotating disco ball to throw sparkles around the room. Conversations didn't seem to falter despite the competition from the music thumping from the speakers. I had grow up with Abba and was pleased to know that they were back in popularity. Two girls got onto the stage and began lip synching to `Take a Chance on Me'. I too the chance and snaked my way through the sea of men in rayon and suddenly had a vision of polyester and Saturday Night Fever. I ordered a beer, paid my nine bucks, and wandered back to the wall where I was able to see the stage without a support beam in the way. The music was different, a hit of a disco beat but with more bass and a stronger back beat driving the music at a greater speed. The songs went from one right into another with the two girls dancing on stage and looking for all the world like Agnetha and Frida. It wasn't until they threw their heads back that I realized that both of them had Adam's apples! They were men in drag! I was amazed but thrilled to see how good they were. As I was concentrating on the one playing Agnetha, two men sidled onto the stage, no doubt to play Benny and Bjorn. The song changed over and suddenly the music sped up, the two "girls" sidled off stage and the boys turned around and began singing, "gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight." The crowd loved this and began getting into the music, calling out to the guys on stage. And that's when I had my moment. Because there, on the stage, in front of hundreds of men, lip synching to Abba was my son, Adrian! The beer fell from my nerveless fingers as I suddenly came face to face with a new reality for which I was not prepared. As the beer bottle caromed off the feet of people near me I stood there with my jaw dropped a foot and my heart hammering into my temple. He couldn't be here, it wasn't possible. I tried to deny what I was seeing but as I stared at him, the features became even more distinct and I knew that it truly was my son, his bearded face round and flushed with the effort. I rationalized what my eyes were seeing and determined that he was just singing, after all, there was no way he was gay. But then he turned to the man playing Bjorn and kissed him, mouth open and tongues reaching across a short gap between them. The crowd went wild, applauding and egging them on. They broke their kiss, turned back and began lip synching to "Mamma Mia." I stood there, my eyes blank as I watched him mash his polyester covered pelvis against Bjorn's satin pants, their contact sending sparks in flashes across the eyes of the audience. They separated and the two `girls' came back out to follow on with Waterloo and would it up with their own kiss to "Voulez Vous." The lights came up a little and the announcer made some inane comment about the performers being great. All four came out, held hands, bowed, they kissed as `opposite' couples and then turned and kissed, man to man and woman to woman. The audience went wild again, encouraging them once more. The lights went out, the music dropped off and all you could hear for a brief moment was the sexual thunder beat from downstairs before the lights came back up a bit and some top 40 hits squeaked from the speakers once more. I was shaking as Adrian stepped off the stage, still holding `Bjorn's' hand. They accepted the congratulations and well wishes of the boys at the front of the floor before making their way toward the bar, almost directly in front of me. They kissed again and `Bjorn' headed off to some other place leaving my son standing six feet in front of me at the bar. I'm not sure if it was fear or stupefaction that kept me from moving away but I stood, trembling, a short distance rom my son as he ordered a beer and took a swig. I stared at him, seeing him for the first time in a long time. My wife and I had divorced four years ago when Adrian was 18 and his sister was 16. I hadn't seen much of him after that, my desperation and desires keeping me from maintaining any sort of contact for fear of being discovered. I knew that he had done well in college and was, in fact, just getting ready to graduate with a degree in International political science. I gazed at him in wonder, his strong jaw a copy of my own, his brown hair tousled, the tips wet with seat from his performance. He had a ready grin and a white smile that sparkled in the bar's poor lighting. He was my height and a little stocky but from muscle, not fat. The satin shirt he wore rode up over thick biceps and I saw the beginnings of a tatoo ringing his right arm. He filled out his shirt well, the threads shimmering in the light as he moved in place, almost dancing to the hidden music piped overhead. There was a lot to admire about my boy but here I was staring. The guy to my left made a comment and began laughing, backing into me and stepping on my hikers with his Bruno Magli peaks. I stopped him from backing up any further and he made some vague apology as I pushed him forward toward his group. When I turned back to return my attention to Adrian I found that he had turned to see the commotion and he was staring at me, his mouth open in unknowing imitation of my own from moments earlier. I flushed intensely and averted my eyes, wishing for the floor to open up and swallow me into a fiery pit. He recovered faster than me and strode over to me, his eyes wide in wonder as he came to stand in front of me, his hands resting on narrow hips. "What the hell are you doing here?" he accused, his mouth turned down in a grimace. I couldn't answer, I just shook before him, my mind blanking on possible actions or words. He stood before me for a few moments before he began to realize that I was having a difficult time breathing. He grabbed my arm and began drawing me toward the door. "Come on, let's go outside. I think you need some fresh air." He nodded at those who smiled at him and even deflected a snide comment or two as we crested the wave of boys and headed toward the open sea once more. It was chilly outside and my flesh prickled, my nipples bouncing to erection in the soft breeze as we turned the building's corner and came to a rest against the short wall that separated the alley from the parking lot next to the bar. I leaned against the stone, shaking as my son held my shoulders, his voice low and calming as he tried to ease my shock. "It's all right, Dad. I know it must have been a shock but there's nothing wrong here. It's all right." I calmed down a bit and stopped shaking but I slowly shook my head, not in denial but refuting his statements. He went quiet as I started mumbling, the words falling out of my mouth but not making sense to him or me. "Look, Dad. I think you need to sit down somewhere. My place is just down the block. Do you think you can make it there?" I nodded and stumbled along as he guided me to his brownstone apartment, leaning me against the door frame as he unlocked the door and led me up the stairs to the fourth floor walkup. It was decorated in a retro style that paid homage to the 70's without being too kitsch. His sofa was leather, not naugahyde but done in a deep purple that no cow would ever be. He dropped me on the sofa and went into the kitchen to get me a glass of water. Sitting next to me, he flipped the remote for the stereo and a dance beat thumped across the hardwood floors. Another click and the music softened somewhat, soothing my mental ache to a dull roar. I swallowed half the glass in a gulp and held the frosted tumbler between sweaty palms, unsure of the next move. Adrian made it, turning my face to his and staring into my red rimmed pupils. "All right, Dad, it's time to come clean with me. What the hell were you doing at rumors?" I took a shuddering breath and let it out in a prayer filled sigh before I began. "I was there because I needed to get out, to be with others who were like me, I needed to see what there is for me. I needed to see what it was like to be with other men who felt like me, who wanted to be with men." Adrian stared at me for a moment, his mouth slightly open behind the short beard, before he chuckled. "Oh. I see." He sat there for a moment, a bright wonderment in his eyes as he took in all the implications of what I was telling him. "So, Dad," he whispered. "And just when did you realize you were gay?" A shudder slipped through my body as my life flashed behind closed lids. I opened my eyes again and gazed into my boy's brown pools. "I guess I've always know, since before I was in college, but I just never thought I could let myself be gay, be with men. Sure, I fooled around in high school jacking off with my friends. I even kissed a buddy and laughed when our stubbled chins made rasping sounds. But I knew I had to be a man, be a dad, get married and have kids. I couldn't continue with other guys. "But then I found myself thinking about it more and more when you were in high school. You remember, I went to all of your soccer games and watched you play for the jazz band at the basketball games. All those boys, turning into young men and you along with them. And then their fathers, every one a man I thought about wrapping my arms around, kissing and holding. "I tried to ignore it, then I tried to drum it out with therapy, then I tried to screw my way out of it, cheating on your Mom before she caught me, and then I just gave up. That's when your Mom and I got divorced. I told her it was because we had grown apart and the affairs made it easier for her to accept that. I couldn't tell her that I was trying to hide my attraction to men." I looked up at my son and was surprised to see a flush on his face. "Oh, Dad. Damn, you sure have a way with words. You really had the hots for my friends in high school?" "Hell, son, I was trying to look at every man around. I even caught you playing with yourself that night the start of your senior year, remember?" He flushed with the memory of my opening the door on him, his hands pulling the covers over his throbbing boy cock, trying to hide his actions. I chuckled at his new reaction to a past event and smiled. "Hey, it was a good way of starting the `birds, bees, and responsibility' talk I knew we had to have." There was moisture in his eyes as he grinned back at me. "Well, Dad, there's one thing you didn't know, even back then. I was gay in high school and I was fantasizing about you when you caught be jacking off. I always thought you were such a hot man!" I stared at my boy, the bald admission sending neurons firing in my brain and nether head, sparkles dancing across my vision. "Wh...wh...what?" He chuckled. "Dad, I've always been attracted to older men, daddies, if you will, and I always figured it was because I idolized you when I was growing up. I always wanted to be like you, I just never realized how much like you I really was!" The realization hit me and I began to laugh, the rumble bubbling from my belly until I let it out in a half bark that continued into a recognition of the hilarity of it all. Adrian joined me and we chortled for several minutes at the understanding that the apple did not fall far from the tree in our family. As we sat, basking in the warmth of a companionable aura, I began to realize that I was becoming aroused, my Son's admission sending thoughts flashing through my mind. He seemed to have a similar reaction as we looked into each other's eyes. "Dad," he whispered. "I have always wanted to find a man like you, I always wanted a man like you." I swallowed dryly as I realized what I was feeling. "Adrian, I always loved you and I always thought you were such a handsome man." We sat for a moment, the atmosphere coalescing until he leaned forward, his crinkly face fur rubbing against my smooth lips before his tongue tickled them open to meet mine in an oral embrace. I closed my eyes, his hot breath sustaining me and swallowing away uncertainty and doubt as we kissed, man to man, for the first time in his life. I reveled in the sensation of my son's soft lips caressing mine as he moved back and forth, sending his tongue into my cheeks and swirling around my own erect mouth muscle. I felt his hands on my shoulders, massaging away fear and thought as I sank into a sea of emotion and sensation, conscious efforts dwindling away to mere reactions to his efforts. He ran his hands down my arms, grasping my biceps and testing their strength. He ran his hands back up to my shoulders before beginning a new exploration down my chest, coming to rest against my pecs, his palms soft grinding into my perky nipples, sending sparks through nerves I didn't know I owned. He broke off the kiss and gazed into my eyes, moisture reflecting a warmth I was afraid to acknowledge. "I love you, Dad," he whispered as he closed his eyes and dove in for another oral embrace. I surrendered to the passion he passed over to me and brought my own hands to his face, caressing the bristly covering that hid cheeks red with effort. I massaged behind his ears, a place he had loved being touched when he was just a boy. He signed into my lips, his body softening slightly under the caress. He began brushing his hands across my chest, teasing open the buttons without me being remotely aware he was doing so. I realized what had happened when I felt his palm brushing against my chest fur, sparking new bolts of energy along my spine to nestle at the base of my growing cock. I moaned my appreciation and gratitude and he gently pinched my erect nubbins between his fingers and twirled his fingertips through by dense fur. I ran my hands down his silken shirt and across his biceps, their fleshy hardness quivering beneath my palms. He continued moving his hands in such a way that my shirt was opened in short order and he ran his hands up over my shoulders and back, sliding the fabric along my firing nerves down my back and arms, revealing my torso as I dropped my hands to complete the unveiling. He ran his hands up my chest, sending shivers down my back as we continued to kiss, his tongue jousting with mine. I felt exposed in a way I knew I wanted as my Son continued to caress my body and my soul with his hands, his tongue, his love. I was slipping into a comfortable cloud of sensation when he stopped his saliva soaked forays and slid down my face to kiss and nibble on my chin. His moustache tickled my lower lip as he chewed on my face, sliding back to gnaw gently on my neck. He must have hit a nerve or a vein because I felt warm and could hear my heart pounding in my ears as he continued down to my shoulder, his beard caressing and gently scratching my tender skin. He pushed me back slowly as he continued along my shoulder to rest his face in my collarbone, his tongue flicking forward to dance along my fur line. He drooled a trail down from my collar bone to my left nipple, swirling his moisture laden tongue around it before clamping down with his lips, further arousing them into inflamed knobs of nerves. He chewed on my chest for several minutes, trailing spit across to the other nipple and treating it fairly before returning to his original target. I leaned against the sofa, sparks shooting behind my closed eye lids as he led me along paths of flannel feelings. I had been passive through these beginnings but I wanted to know my Son's body as well and I knew that he would continue finding ways to pleasure me if I let him. So I forced myself to lean forward, looking at his soft face, a contrast in innocense and sin, the beard trying unsuccessfully to conceal a baby face of flushed cheek and smooth skin. I unbuttoned his shirt, less unobtrusively than he had with me, but succeeding just as well, revealing a nicely formed chest, a light dusting of brown fur forming a `T' from nipple to nipple and leading down to treasures buried in designer disco packaging below. I ran my hands across his chest, sending waves of sensation across his skin, arousing his purple nubbins and creating goose bumps across his pecs. He shivered against me, his lips resting against my sternum, the fur mixing with his beard to create shadows and highlights in the hair. I pushed him back on his haunches and reached beneath his arm pits to rest in soft tufts of fur before lifting up, letting him rise to stand before me. I looked up into my Son's eyes and saw acceptance and agreement there before I looked down at the Christmas present wrapped up before me. The belt was easy enough to open sliding tighter across his hips before releasing themselves and opening like a morning flower. The pant buttons were more difficult, partly from my inexperience and partly because the pants appeared to be new. But a little leverage and they too flowered open, revealing the continuation of his treasure trail leading into low rise briefs of deep blue. I peeled back the flaps of his pants and they slid over his hips quickly, whispering down to rest on his ankles. I reached down and slipped off his shoes before he stepped out of the shimmering fabric, revealing hair covered legs leading upward to a bulging pair of cotton briefs. I held his hips, gently rubbing them as I watched his growing mound twitching beneath the cotton barrier, hinting at the fleshy staff that lurked below. I licked my lips and looked back up at Adrian. He smiled at me, his eyes filled with wonder and suppressed need. "Do it, Dad," he whispered. I complied, my hands easing cotton over skin, sliding the fabric barrier down his hips, releasing his growing member to slap up against his belly, a spiderweb strand of precum flashing out and across my shoulder. I gazed at my son's cock, it's length increasing as I watched in wonder. I was no slouch in the size department but my son had done me one better. Actually, he had done me three better as I estimated him at eleven inches in length and a handspan in diameter. I was seven inches long but did have the advantage in width stretching even the most season cocksucker's mouth with my beer can prick. I grasped his rod sending a shiver up his spine to poke a gasp from his lips. He felt warm and soft despite his strength flowing through spongy membranes. I slid my hand along his length, amazed at the time it took to complete my travels before I reversed course and returned to the nest of fur that covered his base. Having felt the goods, I decided I needed to taste them, snapping my tongue out to flick against the purple head, a pearl gum drop oozing from his mushroom cleft against my taster. He was earthy, a taste of wood and water against my lips as I enveloped his crown with my mouth and gently sucked against the turgid flesh. He groaned and slid forward a bit, demanding further attention. But, despite my relative inexperience, I knew that there was more to be gained from the tease before release so I didn't allow any more of his sugar cane to slid down my throat. Instead I swirled my tongue around the crest of his mushroom, driving him back in surprised pleasure. That's when I swallowed him down, his cock lodging in my throat where my neck muscles massaged his fleshy shaft. I pulled back before I began seeing stars and laved his prick again before moving forward for a repeat performance. He groaned as I buried his prick in my mouth and slid back, the friction drawing across tender nerve fibers. I face fucked myself on his cock as he stood there, letting me control the flow as I tasted his sweet pores of meat. He started shuddering and I knew that he was not going to last much longer. He moaned a warning to me but I clamped down on his meat staff and sucked his cock to drain as much juice as I could get from his fur soaked balls. He gave me my just desserts as the first fusillade of jism exploded against my tonsils, coating my mouth with his saltwater taffy cream for shot after shot. He filled my oral cavity quickly and I had to swallow, contracting against his cock and sending him into a second climax almost immediately. He held my head into his crotch, grinding his bush into my face and sending his cum down my hungry throat. After he sent a final volley along my tongue, he stood, shaking, letting me lave his pole clean, ensuring that I had every last drop of his goodness. Gathering his strength, he stepped back, kneeled down, and in a few quick movements, opened my straining trousers to reveal my own cum drooling rod. He quirked an eyebrow at the lack of underwear and I nodded a sheepish grin. Yes, I had been hoping to get lucky tonight, I just hadn't considered how lucky I would be. He leaned me back against the sofa back again and straddled my legs, his cantaloupe ass cheeks opening to envelop my cock. As I slid up his velvet love chute I began seeing sparks dance in his eyes as my member slid along unmoistened walls to come to rest against his cum knob. He sat down in my lap, his drooling cock softening against my furry belly and oozing a trail of boy slime across my navel. He rose above my groin, pulling my cock with it until it released my staff to slide toward the opening. When only my cock head was inside his hole, he dropped back down burying my cock inside himself and mashing my balls with his firm flesh mounds. He didn't have to continue his anal exercises for long, I hadn't had sex in so long that I was ready to burst in a few short moments. I tried to hold off as long as I could but the effort was too much and as my vision became blurred from the lack of oxygen to the brain, my cock head decided to finish the job and send a shock wave down my cock and into my balls where my cum was churning for release. I cried out and raised my ass, burying my cock in my boy's man cunt, releasing a stampede of man sperm into Adrian's ass. Not content just to shoot, I dropped down and raise myself up again, fucking my cum out of my cock and into my boy's butt with every stroke. He tensed as I went down, squeezing my shaft dry before the next fuck forward and shot of cream sped into his depths. I must have shot a gallon of cum into my boy before exhaustion and post-climax nerves dropped me to the leather below. Adrian sat down on my lap and leaned forward to kiss me. He was soft and gentle with me, almost afraid to lose my drooping cock as he licked against my lips, his beard rustling against my smooth skin in the quiet room. I hugged him to me, his smoother skin so soft next to my fur covered torso. As we sat there, the music began intruding on the moment once more and I started laughing. It was Abba, playing in the background. Adrian leaned back and grinned at me. As Benny, Bjorn, Agnetha and Frida sang to my boy and me, I chuckled. After all, I really had found my man after midnight! Let me know what you think! Rob
