Date: Tue, 25 Jun 2002 14:39:35 -0700 (PDT) From: rimpigfl Subject: THE MARINE NEXT DOOR 3 Disclaimer: This is just a story. And it's about a Marine - actually several Marines. None of them are real one, of course. Kind of a melding of a lot of Marine's I've had the honor to have known in my life. Any resemblance to any actual Marine is purely coincidence - but if there is, I do wish he'd write me! Anyway, you know the drill, if you don't like sex between males, what are you doing here? And if your Country, State, Province, City, Town or Village won't let you read this kind of stuff - MOVE!!! Somewhere where you can! Oh, one more thing. This story is dedicated to my friend PUP, who just LOVES Marines and stories about them. I hope he loves this one. And I kind of hope it would come true for him. THE MARINE NEXT DOOR - Part 3 by RimPig (c) 2002 Ty rolled over on his back and I got over him. I kissed his lips and quickly began moving down his body. Now was my turn to give him all the good feelings he'd been giving me for the last couple of hours. I licked at his neck and moved down to his hairy chest. He had been sweating heavily from all the work he'd been doing - like fucking me! So I was having a salty feast on his sweaty skin as well as a feast for my nose on his scent! I began by sucking on one of his nipples. I also used my teeth lightly the way he had done to me. He was soon moaning just like I did. That's the great thing about making love to another guy! If you like it, he probably will, too. So you don't have a whole lot to figure out about how to make love to him and have him love it. You can concentrate on what you're doing and the you can judge by his reactions as to how much you're turning him on. Plus, you only have to feel or look at his cock and you'll get a really good idea as well! So I wasn't the least bit afraid that I couldn't give Ty pleasure. I just wanted to make sure he got as much as I had - if not more. I chewed pretty good on both his nipples and then moved up to attack his pits. Ok, I'll admit it. I was following the game plan he'd used on me. But it worked really good! Why fuck with success? Anyway, I now had the chance to shove my nose in his pit and REALLY get my nose full of his sweaty scent. I swear his scent was so incredibly powerful to me that I thought I would pass out at the desire it arose in me! Did I want to fuck him? God! I wanted to fuck him so bad it almost hurt! I was truly beginning to understand. I buried my face into his pit and soaked it with my spit as I licked all the soft hair their and tried to taste every molecule of his sweat and scent I found there. I moved down his chest again and let my tongue trace the indentation of each of his tight abdominal muscles which formed the distinctive 'six-pack' I found there. I, too, stopped on my way to his groin to lick out his belly button. I found there some sweat and what tasted like pre- cum. I wondered who's? His or mine? Not that it mattered. But he moaned when I did it and I filed that bit of information away for another time. I moved down and buried my face in his pubic hair. It was soft and very fragrant. Not only his scent but I caught the scent of my ass as well from our earlier fuck. I licked through the hair tasting the sweat and making his groin wet with my saliva. Next, I moved down to his balls. They lay in a nest of dark golden hair, so beautifully formed and so incredibly pungent in scent. I pushed my nose against them and inhaled mightily. The smell of Ty rose in my nose and I was quickly dripping pre-cum in a steady stream. I think I could have cum just from sniffing his balls! But the taste of his salty nuts was beyond anything I had ever dreamed of. The very essence of maleness - the 'family jewels' - were beyond description in taste to me. I tried to memorize the taste and smell of Ty' balls because they were Ty! Above my eyes, I could see his cock. It stood majestically above his groin and I could see pre- cum running down the side of it and coating the surface making it shine in the soft light of my bedside lamp. I licked that trail of pre-cum to the source, the inside of the hood of Ty's foreskin. I lapped out all of the sweet fluid I could find and dug my tongue in between the head of his cock and the foreskin for more. I gradually pushed his foreskin back with my lips while licking the wet head of his cock. He was moaning at my actions and I thrilled to each verbal indication of my ability to give him pleasure. As I pushed his hood down past the head of his cock and then pulled it the rest of the way down with my hand, I discovered that there was evidently the beginning of some head-cheese under the rim because my nose detected the slight odor of it. I licked under the rim of his cock-head and tasted something entirely male in it's flavor and thrilling to me. I decided it was time for me to do the one thing I wanted most - I wanted to suck Ty's cock. I'd never had a cock in my mouth before, but it didn't matter. I had dreamed for too long what to do. I knew, instinctively to protect his cock from my teeth and I carefully began to push my head down and to swallow more and more of his weapon. It felt and tasted so good in my mouth! God! No wonder guys loved to do this to each other! It was so satisfying! I got a little carried away and pushed down too far. Ty's cock hit the back of my throat and triggered my gag reflex. "Easy, babe. Take it slow. You don't have to choke on it." I could hear Ty's voice quietly encouraging me while his hand brushed through my hair. I pulled back, but I was determined that I was going to take his cock in my throat. I don't know why I wanted to do that. I'd never heard of deep-throating before that night. But there was like this itch, this hunger, in me - like the same hunger and itch I had in my ass to take his cock inside me! I moved back down his cock and, again, it hit the back of my throat. My mouth was pretty full of saliva by this point so I tried to swallow some of it. In doing so, suddenly I could feel Ty's cock moving past my gag reflex, past the opening of my throat and deep inside. I tried to swallow again, and suddenly found my nose resting on his balls with his entire cock buried in my throat. I could feel the muscles there tensing and releasing around this 'intruder'. I quickly figured out that this was doing incredible things to Ty. His moans became very loud! I pulled back as I could not breathe and gathered breath for another assault on Ty's cock. Again, going down on it and swallowing, I was able to take his cock into my throat with no problems whatever. The sense of fullness was as emotionally satisfying as the physical aspects of what I was doing. Ty was 'inside' me again! A different entrance to my body, but the same end result! Ty's moans told me that he was getting close to cumming. I wanted that! I wanted him to cum in my mouth! I wanted to taste his seed and take it deep inside me. One more dive onto his hard cock, taking it completely down my throat to the root, was all it took. Suddenly Ty was bucking his hips up, driving his cock even farther into my throat and I could feel the pulsing of his cock and his own vocalization of his pleasure. "God! Yes!!! Take it, Bri! Take my load!" he screamed as he shot what seemed like gallons of cum down my eager throat. I pulled back some to be able to taste his load. I got plenty because Ty continued to shoot his hot cum for a long time. I swallowed several heavy loads of cum before deciding to save some in my mouth to share with him, as he had shared mine with me. As he settled down and the last of his cum dribbled into my mouth, I pulled off his cock and swung around in the bed. I put my lips on his and allowed his cum to slide from my mouth to his. He drank it down and then swabbed out my mouth with his tongue to get whatever was left. The kiss continued and he pulled me over onto the bed on my side and pulled me close to his body. "No one has ever been able to deep throat me like that before! Where the fuck did you learn to do that?" Ty asked, his voice filled with amazement. "Just now. I don't know how it happened. I just swallowed and it happened!" I told him. "I've never even had a cock in my mouth before. I swear!" "I believe you! I'm just so fucking amazed! You have no idea how good that felt!" he said as he grinned down at me. "Well...I have some idea. I can still taste it!" I grinned back. "You know, you were supposed to fuck me - not get me off with your mouth." he laughed. "Sorry, I got side-tracked. Besides, I've wanted to do that since the moment I saw you. I couldn't resist. And, trust me, if you can still take it, I do want to fuck you! God! I want to fuck you really bad!" I said, pushing my hard cock against him. "Hmm. I can feel that!" he grinned. "Do you want to do it right now, or do you want to take a breather for a while?" "I guess after that, you need one and, I guess, I could use one too." I admitted. "Good! So get your ass out of bed. I need a beer!" He said, jumping up and standing on the floor at the foot of my bed. "Do I have to?" I whined, as a joke. "Yeah! You have to!" Ty said. And saying so, he grabbed my hand and easily pulled me up. Then he dipped his shoulder, pulled on my arm and right over his shoulder in a 'fireman's carry'. I suddenly found my self hanging down his back with a perfect view of his magnificent ass! He carried me, both of us laughing, from the bedroom to the kitchen with me reaching down and swatting his ass with my hand as we went. He then deposited me in a kitchen chair and went to the fridge for another beer. "You know, you keep carrying me and I'm going to forget how to walk!" I laughed. "You don't mind, do you?" he looked at me with a crestfallen look on his face. "No! Of course not! I love the feeling of your arms around me like that! When you lifted me up and put me in bed, it was like...well...it was like the Dad I never had." I said sheepishly, somewhat embarrassed about telling him this secret fantasy of mine. I looked up, and Ty was looking at me with a tender smile on his face. "I always wanted a younger brother. I have two older ones, but I wanted somebody I could teach and protect. But I was the last of the kids. I hope you don't mind, but somehow with you, I feel like you are that younger brother, along with a lover. Does that bother you?" he asked. "No! I always wished that I'd had an older brother. Growing up alone is very lonely at times." I told him. "Especially when it's just you and your mom and she has to work." "Well, let me tell you! Growing up with older brothers isn't always so wonderful! I mean, I love my brothers, but they really made my life hell when I was growing up. When they could get away with it, I was their slave - having to do all the chores they didn't want to do. And we were poor, so I never really got anything of my own that was new. I wore their 'hand-me-down' clothes and played with toys they'd either grown out of or tired of. I promised myself that if I did get a younger brother, I would never treat him that way. But it never happened." Ty sighed. I got up from my chair and walked around the table to him. I put my arms around him and literally sat down in his lap, like a little kid. "Then I'll be that little brother you never had." I said, putting my head against his chest. He put his hand on my head and began stroking my hair and running his fingers through it. "And I'll try to be like that older brother you always wanted." he said, leaning down to kiss my hair. We just sat there like that for a while. I could hear his heart beating with my ear against his chest. It was strong and regular. But with his arms around me and the smell and feel of his body, I'm sure mine was beating a lot faster! I had never felt so loved and safe and secure in my life! Well...maybe as a baby when my Mom held me, but I don't remember that. I looked over at the remains of dinner still on the dining room table. "I guess I'd better clean up from dinner before Mom gets home." I said. "What time does she get home?" Ty asked. "When she pulls a double, usually sometime between 7:30 and 8." I replied. "Then let me help get this place cleaned up! I don't want her getting mad at you or anything." he said. I got down off his lap and stood next to him. I looked down into his eyes. "She's not going to be angry with me. Mom's not like that. She knows you guys were going to have dinner with me tonight. We talked about it on the phone when she called to tell me she wouldn't be home." I told him. "Wasn't she worried about you spending time with three Marines?" he laughed. "No, actually, she was worried about me having the new neighbors over for dinner until she found out that you were Marines! That calmed her down right away." I told him. "She obviously has never had any contact with anybody in the Corps!" he laughed. "Actually, she has. Her Dad was a Marine. He was in World War II, Korea and he was killed in Viet Nam. So she has a soft spot for Marine's. You'll see!" I said. "I wonder how soft that spot will be when she finds out one of them is fucking her son?" Ty said quietly. "I don't know how she'll feel about that. I don't know how she'll feel about me being Gay. I haven't come out to her yet. I haven't come out to anybody. For the longest time, I thought my feelings would change, but it never happened. And I don't see that they ever could now." I told Ty. "Yeah, I used to think that, too. It was tough hiding it from my family. My brothers were both dating and the oldest one already got married. One of the reasons I joined the Corps was so they wouldn't be around to ask questions about who I was dating or when I was going to get married." he replied. "Well, we won't have to worry about your parents, but there is my Mom. At least, for the time being, I really don't want to have to tell her. I do want her to get to know you, though. I hope that she'll like you as much as I do and maybe that will help her understand why I'm in love with you." I said putting my hand around the back of his neck and gently massaging the muscles there. I just couldn't seem to keep my hands off his beautiful body. "I think that sounds like a really good plan. Of course, it means I'll have to be on my best behavior!" he laughed. "Gee, I thought this was your best...especially when you were fucking me!" I giggled. "I don't think that behavior is for your Mom's view, do you?" he waggled his eyebrows at me and I burst out laughing. "No, I guess we should reserve that for when we're alone." I laughed. "Now, let's get to cleaning up before you mom finds out you were into her good china." Ty said, getting up. "Oh, she doesn't mind. We don't use it much but, every so often, I get it out and make the table real pretty with flowers and everything, just to show her how much I love her." I told him. "You see! That's what I told you! You are so loving and caring. I don't know what I did to deserve you loving me!" he said, taking me in his arms and gently giving me a light kiss. "I'm the one who's lucky! I still can't believe that someone as wonderful as you are is in love with me!" I told him and then kissed him hard on the lips. "Maybe that's the secret of being in love. Both of us feel like we're the lucky ones." Ty said, kissing me back with passion this time. We finally broke the kiss and started cleaning up. Ty is very organized and was able to get everything into the dishwasher and cleaned up while I reset the table for Mom so that she would have dinner when she came home. When we were done, Ty took my hand and started towards the bedroom. I pulled back and he looked at me. "Didn't you forget something?" I asked, smiling shyly at him. I knew what I wanted but I just couldn't seem to ask him for it. He looked at me a moment and then it seemed to hit him. He grinned and moved towards me. He reached down, took my legs and lifted me into his arms again. I nestled my head against him and sighed. The feel of his arms around me, his strength, was so wonderful it sent chills through me! He didn't say anything, just leaned down and kissed my forehead and carried me back to my bedroom and gently lay me on the bed. Then he got in beside me and lay on his stomach. I rolled over onto his back and lay myself completely on top of him. I began to lick and nibble at his neck and he sighed with satisfaction and I felt him spread his legs open. My cock, which was growing hard, was pressing into the crack of his ass and I knew he could feel it because he would wiggle his ass against it sending thrills through my body. I continued to lick and nibble down his back. I was amazed at the beauty of it, the muscles that were so strong covered with such velvet soft skin. He wasn't hairy on his back except in one place. He had a small patch of fur in the small of his back just above his butt. I combed through it with my tongue before finally reaching his incredible bubble-butt. I licked both cheeks, which had a light dusting of hair on each one. As I did so, he moaned and spread his legs open even farther, inviting a deeper exploration of him. I took the hint and buried my face in his ass-trench with my nose snorting up all the scent of him. I pulled the cheeks open with my hands so that I could get my nose further into the trench where the stronger scent of him was. I know he could hear the deep breaths I took of him. "Yeah! Get off on my ass! You really like the scent of my butt, don't you!" he moaned. I raised my face from him for a moment and answered. "I love your butt! I love everything about you, but especially your scent!" I swore. And with that, I pressed my face back in his ass and began licking deep into his trench, trying to reach the entrance to his body. He spread his legs even further, almost drawing his knees parallel with his hips. It was an incredible vision to see him spread out that way before me. How could anyone not want to fuck a guy so beautiful and so obviously desiring it? I certainly couldn't pass up the opportunity. I was coming to believe what Ty had said. This was necessary for me! I didn't just want to fuck Ty - I needed to fuck Ty! And he needed me to fuck him! My tongue finally found the opening to his body and I began to lick around the wrinkled, puckered lips. I sucked them into my mouth and speared my tongue into his hole. His hole began to open up, much more easily than mine had and I soon had all of my tongue that I could, buried in his hole, licking the inner reaches of his ass. For someone who woke up this morning not even knowing that there was such a thing, I was certainly taking to ass-eating with a vengeance! Ty certainly didn't seem to mind as he lay there moaning while I continued to fuck his ass with my tongue. Finally, I knew he was as wet and open as he was going to get with just my mouth and raised my face out of his butt trench in order to continue opening him up with my fingers. I was going to go for the tube of lube, when it sudden appeared before my eyes - in Ty's hand, reaching back to hand it to me. Well! Nothing like having an eager partner for fucking! I spread some of the lube around the outside if his hole and then began pushing one finger after another inside to spread the muscles so that I could get my cock inside him. His ass gobbled my fingers in no time and I easily was able to find his prostate and began to gently stroke it. But I could feel it getting hard and I knew that I should back off. I didn't want him cumming before I even got inside of him! I figured he was a ready as he'd ever be. It also seemed this was the position he wanted to be fucked in. Since this was my first time, I didn't have any preference so I just moved forward and sunk my cock into his ass-trench until it was resting at the opening to his guts. I was braced by my hands on the bed next to the sides of his chest. I slowly pushed forward and felt his ass open to the head of my cock. I popped past the outer ring easily and felt myself sliding into the hot, wet furnace of his ass. God! Was it hot inside him! It felt so fucking good! The ring of muscles stripped back my foreskin as I slowly shoved my cock further into his butt. I didn't know how fast he wanted the entry so I figured slow was less painful. Obviously, Ty had other ideas because I suddenly felt his hands reach back, grab my hips and pull me fully inside of him. I also felt his pelvis raise and his ass push back until every bit of my cock was inside of him and my pubic hairs were resting on his hole. Once I was all the way in, he let go of my hips and settled back down. "Lay down on me and rest. Just let me get used to this a minute." Ty said, his voice husky with lust. Taking him at his word, I lowered myself to his back again. I began licking a nibbling at his shoulders and neck. My cock was luxuriating in the heat and wetness inside him. "God! You feel so good!" I husked, my own voice betraying my desire. "I told you that you would love it!" he murmured. "I think it's time you started fucking, lover!" I took him at his word and went to move up to my hands again. Instead, he grabbed my arms and brought them around his chest keeping me on his back. My fingers reached for his nipples and when I squeezed them, his ass clenched tighter around my cock! Wow! What a feeling that was! I was truly beginning to understand the pleasure I had given him. I began to pump my cock in and out of his hole. I immediately felt his ass clutch around my cock, giving me feeling like I had never had in my life! It was so soft and wet inside him and I truly felt like I could fuck him forever. Unfortunately, being new at this, I was having a very hard time keeping from cumming. His moans as I fucked in and out of his ass were causing me to reach orgasm as well. Knowing that I was the one causing those moans, that it was me giving him that much pleasure was driving me towards cumming. I started fucking him hard and fast. I could hear his moans increase in sound. I was slamming my cock in his ass as hard as I could and knew that my orgasm was rapidly building because I could already feel that tingly feeling in my nuts. "That's it! Fuck me! Fuck me hard! Shoot that hot load right in my ass! Pound my fucking butt!" Ty screamed as I continued to slam my cock in his ass as fast and hard as I could. I took him at his word that he wanted me to cum. I wasn't far from it! Then I heard louder moans from Ty and felt his ass lock down on my cock and a rhythmic clenching of his inner muscles sent me over the edge! I buried my cock in his hole and the cum pumped from my cock. I don't know how many times I shot, but it was one of the longest orgasms I could remember. When I finally couldn't cum anymore, I collapsed on his back. He reached to his chest and locked his hands in mine. He brought my hands to his face and gently kissed each one. This caused my cock to twitch in his ass one more time. "Oh, God! Ty! That was incredible! I love your ass! I love fucking you!" I breathed into his ear as I tried to regain my breath. "I'm really glad because you are really good at it! You got me off with just your cock. Did you know that?" he asked. "No! Was that what made your ass clench so tight on my cock at the end?" I asked. "That was it! Now you know what it feels like. You've become a man. You've fucked your first hole!" he laughed. The laugh forced my soft cock from his butt. Since I was free, I decided that I wanted to do to Ty what he had done to me so I moved down his body again and forced his butt-cheeks apart and put my mouth right on his hole. It was redder now and somewhat puffy so I was careful. I licked his hole and got another groan out of him. Then I put my lips around his asshole and gently began sucking and licking at it, drawing my cum out of his ass. He moaned more while I did it and, when I had gotten all I could, I gently kissed each cheek of his butt. I then moved back up the bed and lay down beside him on my back, exhausted by all the sex I'd had in one night. Boy! From being a virgin to having my ass fucked, my cock sucked and fucking my first ass all in the space of about three hours! Ty rolled over onto his side facing me with his head resting on his hand, looking down at me. He reached out and began gently stroking his hand down the front of my body from my chest to my pubic hair. I looked up at him. "I never thought it would be like this. I knew it was good. But I had no idea how good it could be!" I told him. He leaned down and gently kissed me. "Trust me. It isn't always this good. It's never bad, but it's only this good when you're with someone that you really love." he said. "I believe you. God! I'm exhausted! I didn't know sex could take this much out of you!" I grinned at him. "Well, that's because it's new for you and because we did a lot in one night." he grinned. "Are you about ready for bed?" he said. "We're already in bed." I giggled. "No, I mean to sleep." he said, giving me an exasperated look. "I still need to piss." I said. "Good. So do I." Ty replied. "And we both need a shower or you'll stink like sex when your Mom comes home and she'll know what you've been doing." "Oh, yeah! I didn't think about that." I said, glad that he had the presence of mind to think about such things. "We can do this together." he said taking my hand and walking to the bathroom. He reached into the shower and adjusted the water and then pulled me in with him. "Ty, I still have to take a piss!" I complained. "So piss!" he said. "But I'm all wet now and I'll get the bathroom floor all wet." I told him. "What? Haven't you ever pissed in the shower before?" he asked. "Well...sometimes when my piss hard won't go down I have to." I admitted. "Just go ahead and piss then." he said, grabbing the soap. "But I might get some on you!" I whined. "So? We're in the fucking shower, Bri. What does it matter?" he asked. I still was having trouble with this. Actually, what I was having trouble with was the idea of pissing with Ty there. I'm terribly pee-shy and not used to having another guy around when I piss. Especially not some guy I was in love with! "Wait a minute! You're pee-shy, aren't you?" Ty asked, looking me in the face. I tried to deny it, but the words wouldn't come out of my mouth. "Well...ahh...yeah! I am." I hung my head. "Fuck! That's no big deal! Lots of guys come into boot camp that way. You're just not used to having another guy around. Since you didn't have a Dad or any brothers, you've never learned to relax around another guy. But this is your chance. You might as well get used to it. Now go ahead and piss. Here! I'll make it easy for you." he said. And with this, his cock started pissing. I watched the heavy stream flow into the bottom of the shower and down the drain. I found myself relaxing and the next thing I knew, my piss was pouring from my cock and following his down the drain. He grinned at me and gave me a light punch in the shoulder. "That's my boy! I told you that you could do it! It's just getting used to being around other guys. And you might as well get used to it, lover, because I'm going to be around. A lot! Ok?" he asked, grinning at me with that wonderful, boyish smile of his. I leaned over and kissed him. "Yes, it's very ok with me!" I said. He grabbed me and started washing me. I loved the feel of his soapy hands running all over my body. Of course he took his time around my cock and balls. He was especially careful around my ass which was feeling a little sore. I moaned as he touched it. "Sore back there, huh?" he asked as he gently soaped my butt crack. "Yeah. I am." I told him. "You're going to be more so tomorrow. You won't be able to get fucked again for a few days. We'll let the soreness go away first. But, it's ok. There's other things we can do and eventually you won't have to wait." he informed me. "You won't be disappointed?" I asked. "Fuck, no!" he answered. "Sure I love fucking you, but after tonight, I love you fucking me just as much. And you give one fuck of a blow job!" he grinned at me. I grinned back and I guess my pride in myself showed. I was good at sex! I could please another man! Most important - I could please the man I loved! "Well, at least I'm good at something." I tried to pass it off as a joke, but Ty could see right through me. "Hey! What the fuck is this? There's lots of stuff you're good at. Listen here to me! I love you. And I don't like hearing anybody put somebody I love down! You got that? Not even you!" he said, standing there using that 'drill sergeant' voice of his. "I've got it. I guess I've spent too many years telling myself how worthless I am." I said hanging my head. Ty reached out and put his arms around me. "Why the fuck would you do that?! You're not worthless! I couldn't love you as much as I do if you were!" he said, raising my chin with his hand and looking me straight in the eyes. I melted at his beautiful blue eyes. "I guess its because I never had anyone but my Mom tell me I was worth anything before." I said. "You're Mom sounds like a pretty smart lady, Bri. You should listen to her more often." he said and then he kissed me lightly. "Your turn!" With that, Ty flipped me the soap. And as I ran my hands over his beautiful, muscular body, I had a chance to think about what he had said. Maybe this was my fault - my feeling so down on myself. I'd always felt less then the other kids because I didn't have a Dad and most of them did. But that wasn't my fault! There was nothing bad about me because of it! And now I had this beautiful, studly Marine in love with me! I guess I was wrong all along. It wasn't going to be easy, but I suddenly realized that what other people thought doesn't matter. What Ty and my Mom thought did because they were the people who knew me - knew just about everything about me - and loved me. I loved the feel of Ty's skin under my hands. The soft warmth of it. The steel-like strength of the muscles beneath. I loved to run my soapy fingers through the mat of fur on his hairy chest and stomach and down to his pubic hairs. I knew now why it was called a treasure trail! What treasure awaited me! Ty's beautiful cock which I carefully washed, pulling back the foreskin to make sure that it was clean. I even got down on my knees and washed down his strong thighs and calves. I marveled at the strength of his legs and then remembered how much a Marine marches and runs. I heard the guys talking about 20 mile forced marches. While still down on my knees I dragged my gaze up the long, tall body of this man that I was so in love with. The view was overwhelming - especially when it ended at that beautiful face and the soft smile he was gazing at me with. "Like what you see, lover?" he asked softly. "Very, very much." I answered honestly. He reached down and put his hands in my arm pits and lifted me to my feet. "So do I. Very, very much." he said and kissed me. My arms entwined around his neck. He turned us so that the water cascaded down on us and rinsed the soap it could reach from our bodies as we stood there locked in each others arms, tasting each other. Finally he broke the kiss and stepped back out of my arms and, putting his hands on my hips spun me around in the spray of water to fully rinse me. Then he stepped back into the spray himself and finished getting the soap from his body. He then turned the shower off and reached for a towel and began drying me. If felt almost like I was little kid again to feel him doing this for me. Like he really was my big brother and was giving my nightly bath. I felt so warm and secure in his hands. I never realized how much I needed the touch of a man, never realized how much I missed it in my life. I guess, in some ways, I was lucky not to know because the hunger for it that rose inside me now would have been so much worse if I realized what I was missing. When he finished, I grabbed a towel and began to return the favor. I loved anytime I could touch him. It surprised how easily we had gone from being complete strangers to such intimacy in such a short time. To have the permission to touch his body in return for allowing him access to mine just seemed to me an unfair bargain. I was sure that I had gotten the greater part of the deal, but I wasn't complaining! Not on your life! Here was the finest specimen of young manhood - one of The Few, The Proud - indeed he could well be a model for one of the Corp's recruiting posters! And I got to touch him, feel his arms hold me and give myself complete to him and satisfy his body in ways that would not be approved by the Corps. But it bothered him not a bit. Don't Ask, Don't Tell. Finally dry, he again picked me up in his arms and carried me back to my bed. But it was no longer mine. Now baptized with the essence of both our bodies, it was now our bed. Never again would I look at that bed without seeing our bodies entwined in love. And for the first time in my life I was about to sleep in the arms of a man. And not just any man. The man I loved in ways that surprised me at my own capacity for feeling. Putting me gently in the bed, he walked around to the other side and got into bed behind me. He reached out his arms and pulled me to his body and we lay there spooned together. I kissed my neck and squeezed me in his arms. "Comfortable?" he asked. "More than you could ever know!" I answered, the depth of my feelings showing in my voice. "You've never slept with somebody, have you?" It was a statement, not really a question. "No, except my Mom when I was little. It was nothing like this!" I enthused. He chuckled softly. "I certainly hope not!" he said and nuzzled my neck. "What time do you have to get up?" I asked. "I need to be up by 5:30 to make it back to base on time." he said. "Don't worry, I wake up without an alarm clock. And it will get me out of here before your Mom gets home. We don't need her finding us like this." he said. "No, I guess not. When will you be home?" I asked. "I should be back by five." he said. "Ty..." I said softly. "What?" he asked. "Are...are...you going to tell Domingo and Tim about us?" I asked. "Don't you want me to? They're my best friends and you know they would understand. And beside, since they'll know I never came back to the apartment tonight, they're going to figure something is going on." he laughed. "Oh, yes! I want you, too. I wouldn't want to try and hide how I feel about you around them. I don't think I'd be very successful. I wonder what I'm going to do around Mom. I'm sure she's going to notice something different about me." I told him. "Well, you don't have a neon sign around you neck that says 'I'm not a virgin anymore!'" he laughed. "No, I don't mean that. I wonder if she will be able to see how much I'm in love with you." I said. "I don't know. I guess we'll have to cross that bridge when we come to it." he said. I was quiet after that. He reached around and sought my mouth. I turned back and he kissed me. "Good night, Bri." he said quietly. "Good night, Ty." I murmured. And with his arms around me, I drifted off to sleep, feeling safe, secure and loved. The end of Part 3 of THE MARINE NEXT DOOR If you like the story, please write me at rimpigfl@yahoo.com.
