Date: Tue, 20 Nov 2007 14:49:56 +0000 (GMT) From: Mark Taylor Subject: The Love of His Son - Gay Male - Incest This is purely a work of fiction, but in one sense it is also totally factual. It represents the cry of my heart. You will read about Kevin and his problem ridden Dad. The story is set in my time and in my home. But the difference is that my own father was a brute of a man who never showed me affection. I lived in fear of him: of his hand, his fist, his belt, his boot and harsh, cutting words. That fear turned into hatred. I left home at the earliest possible moment. Twenty or more years later, I find myself avidly reading accounts of intimate relationships between fathers and sons and I find a longing in my heart. It's not so much for the physical activities (exciting though they may well be); it's the approval, the caring, the bonding that I crave for -- and can't have because the one man who should have loved me more than others never did and is now long gone. Feel free to contact me: I'm Mark and my address is no.drah@yahoo.co.uk. I had lived all my life in a sprawling mining village in Yorkshire. Dad was a miner. He did well. He worked himself up from the coal face to become a well qualified mining engineer. Meanwhile his only child also did quite well. I gained a first in chemical engineering, entered a firm whose name you will know and by the time I was twenty three I had landed a research fellowship with that firm with very good prospects indeed. Dad and I lived alone. Mum died when I was 14 and in some ways neither of us got over it. She was the heart and powerhouse of the family. I had no plans to leave home or leave Dad. For some years I had known I was not the marrying kind, though I had enjoyed a number of steamy sessions with several of the girls at uni. But it was also at uni that I began to take a serious interest in other guys. That was the heyday of Gay pride, in your face Gaysoc and an evangelical fervour in the camp. So it was not difficult to meet up with guys, explore our sexuality together and find out just who we were. By the time I left university, I was `out'. That doesn't mean I talked freely about my sexual orientation or paraded it, but I didn't deny it. My Dad knew. He guessed early on and one day kindly and gently asked me about it. I was trembling with a sort of excited fear as we spoke but he hugged me and made it so clear I was totally accepted and loved and he would always be for me and support me. I just loved him for that! We come to a black time in Yorkshire's history: the clash between the miners and the government in the `80s. Or the clash between a petty minded woman consumed by her own right wing dogmas, who did endless damage to my people and society and a rather stupid man who in fact led his union on a course of inevitable destruction. The masses were in the middle and we -- I say `we' with some feeling -- were left to sink without trace. My Dad lost his job. The market was suddenly flooded with good, honest men who couldn't do much other than mining. It was morally and psychologically the end of many of them. Dad just went under. He applied for loads of jobs and received a few demeaning and insulting offers that he couldn't even consider. Some of his friends went abroad, mainly to Australia I think and I told him that if he went I would go too; he had no-one else in the world. That was just weeks after I started my research work. We both knew I would never get another break like this. He just smiled at me and shook his head. >From then on, it was heart breaking to watch him. I came home every evening from work to see him just sitting there; often in the dark. Sometimes it was obvious he had been crying. I went out less and less because I hated to leave him in this state and I suppose I worried too what he might do. So many of his colleagues took what has grimly been called `the easy way out'. (How I grew to hate that woman!) It all came to a head one Friday evening when I came in from work. It must have been winter, because it was quite dark by 6.30. He just sat there, still in his dressing gown, still with the breakfast pots on the table and his eyes red with crying. `Oh Dad' I cried out. I knelt beside him, so that I could put my arms round him and comfort him. I held him close, and gently kissed the side of his head over and over. `Sorry, lad, I'm not much good for you am I?' `Daddy, daddy, daddy' I'm not sure why I said it. I hadn't called him that for years. It just broke him up. He began to sob. I held him there until the storm passed. It took a long time. I hugged him and caressed his back. It was then I realised that I was sporting a very creditable erection. My position was awkward. I was kneeling beside him with my crotch level with -- and now jammed up against -- the edge of the chair seat. But it wasn't just the pressure that was having this effect. An emotion was rising in me that I had never identified before. I was having a physical reaction to this man! This situation was stimulating me in a way I dare hardly admit. Where did that come from? `Dad you've eaten nothing all day. You're going to get dressed and we're off to Hung Wah'. Dad loved Chinese food. He took a deep breathe and for the first time probably for days looked me full in the face. `Nay lad, what would I do without thee?' When we were at our closest, he would often slip into dialect. He didn't need to say much more. It was the affirmation of the very strong bond between us. We made small talk over the meal: my job, the broken catch on the bathroom window, the quality of the food. A crazy idea occurred to me. `Dad let's go for a walk on Aidan's Barrow'. We both loved that place, it was desolate and rugged, but we hadn't been there for -- well I don't know, several years at least. `Don't be daft! It's miles away and anyway it's pitch black'. `No it's not, there's nearly a full moon and neither of us have to get up early in the morning.' I was right; we had enough light to see where we were going and it was just great being back on the Barrow. Dad was quiet. I worried that the black cloud was coming down again. I took his hand, like the child I had been fifteen years earlier. `You OK?' He squeezed my hand and grunted an affirmative. He didn't let go. We walked hand in hand. After maybe ten minutes with very little conversation, I felt a sudden surge of emotion. I just grabbed him and hugged him. `Daddy. I do love you so much' I held him and planted half a dozen quick kisses on his lips. Something else I hadn't done for a long time. Then I just hugged him. He was calmer now. Whether he had cried all the tears he had or whether he had just regained control I don't know. He held me, motionless, but so tightly in his embrace. At length he broke free and now holding my head in his hands he kissed me, just once, also on the lips, firmly, but he held me there for maybe ten seconds. It was chaste; his lips -- and mine -- were firmly sealed but the effect on me was an emotional maelstrom. For a start my penis, always independent of common decency or the niceties of the current situation surged to an impudent erection. I just prayed that Dad couldn't feel it, but I don't see how he could miss it given the clinch he held me in. The rest of the evening was uneventful. Not much was said on the journey home; we were both occupied with out own thoughts. The night however was not so calm. Not for me, anyway. It was not unusual for me to be worrying about Dad, therefore to be awake in the night, but that night unsuspected stirrings and half forgotten memories danced in my mind. Hovering somewhere between sleeping and waking a number of dreams, impressions and memories drifted past me. It was a mixture of sexual activity and desire and some of the guys I had enjoyed spending time with in the past. Nothing new there, even though some of them were quite a bit older than me, but here again, age has always mattered far less to me than a decent physique and a twinkling eye! Into all of this I began to see Dad's face. He was there somehow among my most intimate acquaintances! Worse than that, he seemed to be interchanging with them. I woke up with a start and tried to shake it all out of my mind. This was just too fantastic and anyway it was wrong. Everyone knew that. But try as I might, my waking mind was not ready or able to put the idea aside. I kept thinking of my Dad in happier days, laughing, wrestling, playing sport with me. I remembered him in his swimming briefs (no long legged Bermuda style malarkey here!). I imagined fingering his hairy chest down to his stomach and then tracing that line down to where it led suggestively out of sight to the not inconsiderable bulge below. I shocked myself by imagining what it would be like to fondle, to expose, to play with and even to taste his manhood. With a start I rebuked myself. `This is wrong'. I think I spoke it out loud. But the thoughts didn't go away. I dozed again and woke again, maybe a dozen times. The same dreams kept circulating, though he now seemed to play a bigger role in them. As dawn broke I lay musing. Maybe it wasn't wrong to have fantastic dreams -- even day dreams. Obviously I wouldn't do anything about them. But then I felt disappointed. I knew I wanted him. He was so vulnerable and I wanted to protect him and make it all good again. I wanted to somehow take him into my arms and absorb him into my very being. I think it was then that I realised I didn't just love my Dad; I was actually falling in love with him. I wanted a relationship which was a commitment of hearts and minds, but would never be satisfied until it had also joined in every other way possible. At around eight o'clock I slipped on my shorty dressing gown and went down to the kitchen to make some coffee. Dad was already there, dressed and preparing breakfast. `You're looking better'. `I'm feeling much better, Kev. It's up to you. You've talked some sense into me.' He hugged me, a real bearhug and pulled me in tight against his body. I was wearing nothing underneath my dressing gown and my bare leg was thrust against his. Fortunately, I was saved from ultimate embarrassment by about two inches of fabric. Ultimate, because he held me close for a couple of minutes and I soon produced the inevitable tent. On several occasions that day we expressed our affection in ways more than the usual father/son relationship. That did nothing to calm the longings born in me by the dreams of the night and fantasies of the early morning. We went to the match. Our side -- Featherstone Rovers - won convincingly. We were happy. We called in for a couple of drinks and picked up a takeaway. We sat at opposite sides of the table and I was aware of the fact that he was studying me intensely. I looked up and grinned -- `What?' He smiled back but said nothing. He just continued to smile. `What?' I grinned back again, `What are you trying to do?' `Bit difficult to say, lad.' `How do you mean?' He looked away, then back at me and then back at the table. `You've done me a power of good lad. I owe you one. In fact I owe you several. How do I repay you?' `Whaaat? You're my Dad and I love you. You don't owe me owt.' He sat quiet for a long time. Then, very quietly, `Do you love anyone else -- at the moment?' No question he could ask would be nearer to the target. I was aware of blood rushing into my cheeks. I knew that if I didn't keep cool I could blurt out something stupid. At length I answered him, also very quietly. I daren't even look up. `No, Dad, there's no-one else I love.' Then I did look up. Tears were running down his face. `I don't deserve thee, lad.' The emotion was too much. I just burst into tears, my head in my hands and sobbed. `Come here son' he said as he got hold of me, half lifted and half pulled me to the sofa, where he gently held me in his arms. I cried on his shoulder. He kissed and kept on kissing my neck and face. After a long time we sat up and he simply said, `No limits, son, not for thee, not in this house. Whatever you need... (he lowered his voice)...whatever you want....is yours.' My mind was in turmoil. What could he mean? Dare I hope -- what else could he mean? That night I was once more tortured by my libido. At one point I was taking long, deep and satisfying thrusts into the rear of a guy I'd shagged a couple of times, doggy style He turned his face to me and said, `Tha's reet Kev. Na limits for Thee.' It was my Dad's face. And at that point I came, saturating the sheet beneath me as I woke. I struggled to find my briefs on the bedside chair to clean up some of the mess. At length, needing the toilet I grabbed my dressing gown. I passed by Dad's room. His door was ajar; he had obviously been up in the night. I looked in to find him, wearing nothing but the pair Yfronts he had slept in. He stood at the open window gazing into the distance. `Fancy a cuppa?' `Ay lad, that would be nice'. He turned round as I spoke. I noticed the bulge in his shorts. It wasn't a tent, but his manhood was seriously disturbing the fabric. Our eyes met. We both grinned. When I took his tea up he was back in bed. An idea occurred to me. I set the cup down on his bedside table and walked round to the other side. `Room for another?' I quipped and got into the other side of the bed. He chuckled.. `Ay lad tha knoes tha's allus welcome' I snuggled down in the bed beside him. He tousled my hair. `Eh Kevin'. We lay there looking into each other's faces. The desire that had chased me through two nights began to surge again, stronger than before. I longed for him. I shuffled closer and nestled my forehead against his. He put his arm around me and held me. No word was spoken. He gently massaged my shoulder and the top of my back. I snuggled down onto his chest. I longed to get closer. A thought crossed my mind. But it was impossible. I dared myself to ask him. Eventually I blurted it out. `Dad, do you mind if I take my dressing gown off?' `Do what you like, Kev, I shan't stop you' His answer made my heart leap. Was he truly feeling the same as me? `I've nowt underneath' `Is that a problem?' I lay still for half a minute considering his answer then took the plunge. I sat up, threw it onto the floor and returned to my former position, though now I was nestling naked, my shoulder against his chest. My cock was raging with excitement but I just didn't dare bring it anywhere near his body. He began running his hand down my back and sides, still gently massaging. I was brave enough to stroke his shoulder. As his hand strayed I went further. I roamed over his chest. We started playing an unspoken game. As I explored wider, so did he. I got as far as his navel and he was in the small of my back. I fingered the top of his Yfronts and he arrived at the nick in my buttocks. I jumped. `Sorry' `No please don't be -- just do it again!' He chuckled quietly, took hold of one buttock and squeezed. `Is this what you want then lad?' I grunted approval and thought, `Yes, that and a lot more'. What I said was, `I just love you so much.' The reaction took me by surprise. He suddenly hugged me and pulled me towards him. The effect was that my erection, now dripping with anticipation drove into the leg of his underwear and wedged itself into his groin. I tried to pull back with embarrassment. He just roared with laughter and held me there. I hadn't heard him laugh like that for a very long time. Then he pushed me back, tore off his briefs and immediately pulled me back onto him. We were now chest to chest, stomach to stomach with two seriously engorged phalluses trapped in between. His head again so close to mine, he spoke quietly. `I know how you feel lad, I've guessed. And when I thought about it I was surprised it didn't make me feel angry or dirty. I realised I wanted you too and decided that if you didn't make a move today I damn well would!' Our lips simply met, as if with a mind of their own. In no time we were intoxicated with the `Dance of the Tongues'. He gripped my buttocks hard and long and emotionally exhausted by the rollercoaster of the last thirty six hours I just came, pumping furiously onto his stomach. We lay there, relaxed and contented for ages. We both new we were walking new paths, but we were quite sure that was exactly where we wanted to be. It was a turning point for Dad. A few months later he left for Canada and got a really good job. I visited as often as I could and a couple of years later was able to join him with a very good job of my own. Life really is good now. I've even been able to forget that sadistic old cow...well for most of the time!
