Whispers It was a warm night, Dave had a shower and couldn't wait for Derek to arrive home from work, he's actually been thinking about it all day and the expectation in Derek's case always lived up to the reality, or so Dave thought, Derek was every much a part of his life now, after the couple of years they'd been together, could it get any better? He pondered; he'd done a few things that had to be done, Looking for work can be a job in itself and this time he knew these few weeks holiday from the law firm were the ideal opportunity to change career, easier said than done he thought, Law is so pedantic and he often imagined himself doing something more straight forward like gardening or even security like Derek, picturing himself in a security guard uniform patrolling office buildings wearing one of those sexy caps and a nice smart pair of brogues, he gave himself a little laugh as he envisaged Derek's reaction to him taking on a job like that, of course it probably couldn't happen he not coming from a forces background, besides law might be a typical staid middle class career path but it certainly is paid well. The house, although big for two, always seemed too empty with Derek not there, it was a house built for a family really, airy and yet somehow self contained it managed to just have enough space for them both due to their rather untidy nature. The garage was always packed with stuff that was never used, the old Motorbike, gardening equipment, sun loungers hardly used, mostly it was things they didn't need anymore and just wanted 'out of sight' magazines, old newspapers, electrical appliances and a whole load of other stuff hidden away in a dark corner, one day he promised himself we will take a Sunday and shift the lot, sell some of it and just chuck the rest, we might even be able to get the two cars in there, that's what it was for originally anyway, the bike's never used now. "I might ask him tonight" he found himself muttering. All he could think about today was Derek and being in security he did work `funny' hours, he won't be home for quite some time and after dinner he decided have a nice bath and maybe read a bit or watch TV before Derek came home. After a soak in the tub and a good close shave is a good time to ponder Dave thought and spreading out on the bed he was in daydream mode, he lay there naked his conditioned blond hair now soft and spiky against the warm clean sheets, laying on his back and staring at the ceiling he remembered the first time Derek had made love to him, two years ago next week, Dave developed a wry smile and clutched his right hand to his chest, he'd never felt as good as that before and without even thinking about it he wanted Derek's fingers and big dick inside him that night even though Anal sex never occurred to him previously. Dave looked down and realised he had a full hard on, giving it a flick he realised he had a while to wait yet until Derek's return, somehow he was still not used to the odd hours, he reached over and picked up one of his many novel from the side cabinet, let out a sigh and found the last page he left from the morning, flicking on the reading light he decided to read as much as he could to stop focusing on the clock, being on holiday relaxation is the number one priority for him after all. The door downstairs shut just loud enough to give him a stir, he realised he'd fallen asleep and the book was perched on his chest, his legs were crossed and in the couple of seconds it took to be fully aware he felt a warm feeling welling up inside as he realised Derek must be home. The door flung open and he was greeted with a big cheesy grin. "Look at you" Derek said enthusiastically "Talk about a nice welcome home, naked on the bed already mate" "Don't I get a kiss then?" Dave threw the book carelessly to the side of the bed and held out his arms his lips puckered and eyes almost closed. "er? Ok then" Derek tumbled over from the door pulling at his tie and landed quite heavily on Dave pinning him down and giving him a series of heavy pecks all over his face. "You animal Derek" "You love it mate, I know what else you like too" "Not that Derek, pleaseee, you know how ticklish I am" "Yeah I know, you got no choice though, I love teasing you" Derek grabbed Dave sides and sent him into convulsions of laughter and spasms. Through the laughter Dave pleaded "Derek, no please no, the neighbours will think we're a couple of nutters, at least shut the curtains" Derek moved over to the curtains and grabbing the first one and pulling it in a mock statement proclaimed "yes we are gonna have sex" grabbing the other one and tugging it quickly over he added "Yes we are a pair of nutters" Springing back over he grabbed Dave from the side locking his arms and gave him a firm and tender cuddle from behind, he then proceeded to kiss Dave's neck all over with teasing nips, always a winner. Drawing back slightly he studied Dave's neck and gently stroked it. "You're peeling from the sunburn" he mentioned "Washed your hair as well mate? Smells nice" "Yeah couple of hours ago, virtually dried laying here must've dosed off then, you gonna have a shower gorgeous?" "Mmmmm I love it when you call me that, yes I will in a minute, after I cuddle you a bit more mr, don't forget I've been working with all them big serious blokes all day, busy too, predictable as well" Derek managed to prise himself away knowing he'd be asleep if he stayed there too long and disappeared through the door and into the bathroom. Dave loved these moments when Derek came home late, Derek was always like a big boisterous kid after work and he did look sexy in his security outfit, even if it was creased up, he focused on the trickle of water coming from the shower and curled up on the bed in blissful contentment. Derek always took ages in the shower, a twelve hour shift and a hairy sweaty body would be ok but a nice clean fresh one next to him was what he wanted now. "Are you finished Derek?" he shouted "I need a piss" "Just having a shave" came the reply "be a few more minutes mate" The exchanged a brief but passionate kiss as they crossed paths to and from the bathroom, Derek collapsed naked on the bed and Dave rushed into the bathroom and emerged a few minutes later with a big grin on his face. Derek patted the sheets in a gesture to him and he needed no invitation and fell backwards next to Derek then leaned over grabbed Derek's freshly shaven chin and planted another kiss on his wet lips. "I was going to suggest we clean the garage out one day this week but it's getting a bit late to talk about it and I know you're tired" They lay there side by side staring at the ceiling both in a sort of sleepy dream state but fully aware of each others presence. Linking hands they got more relaxed and Dave realised this wouldn't be a night for a hot sex session, just being here beside him would be enough he thought, he moved his head sideways to ask Derek if he was hungry and realised he's fallen asleep, bending over gently he kissed him on the forehead prompting his eyebrows to move together slightly with a gentle frown, but not quite enough to wake him. Pretty soon Dave had drifted off as well. In a tender embrace they linked, hairy and muscular with smooth and blond, rough with the smooth, tongues entwined they could feel the salty wet heaven of each other, their bodies tingling with small electric shocks, Dave's hardness pressed against the hairy flesh, eyes nearly closed, hearts pounding, all the zones were covered, ear lobes, the small of the back, armpits, belly button, the side of the neck and the feel of warmth on their dicks, they rolled into each other in the semi darkness, this timeless moment could last forever and the bed seemed to accommodate their every position, the sweat at last became apparent and the hot breaths forced out by passionate exertion. "We're lucky mate, you and me" Derek whispered. Dave turned to his love and declared. "No I am I'll miss you if you ever go" A tear running down his cheek. There was no reply; he must have been asleep already. Dave woke and realised it wasn't early, turning to his side he realised he was alone, was Derek on an early he thought? His memory slipping. On descent of the stairs he noticed the red light on the phone flashing. "You have one new message, message received yesterday at 11pm" He hadn't heard the phone last night; he could've sworn Derek was in the shower about that time. "Dave, are you there Dave? It's Carol, not heard from you for a while, hope everything is ok,I know you've not been to work because they called me, tell you what I'll pop over tomorrow morning about 11.30,hope that's ok, if not give me a ring and let me know ok? See you then, bye" It was gone 11 already, Dave rushed into the kitchen and put the kettle on, he'd skip breakfast, too late now and have an early lunch, just not hungry at the moment. Dead on 11.30 the doorbell went and it was Dave's sister Carol, on time as usual. Carol lived some distance and he wondered what was up, she wasn't the type to make unexpected social visits. "Carol just got your message, what's up" Carol entered the hallway and sheepishly looked around, she looked uncomfortable. "Dave can we go inside and sit down" Looking surprised at the request he agreed and quickly made two coffees bringing them in on a tray. "Dave, do you know when you're going back to work love? I spoke to someone at your place and they don't know the situation" "I'm on holiday Carol, didn't you know?" Carol looked serious now, this was going to be a lecture or some sort of pet talk he thought. "Dave I want to talk about Derek" "What about Derek? He is ok isn't he, left for work this morning before I was awake, must be on an early" Carol leaned over gently and took Dave's hand between hers and brought it carefully up to her face, he could feel the wetness of the tears on his fingers, and he knew there was a problem. "Dave love, Derek wasn't here last night" He looked at her in disbelief "Wasn't here, what are you talking about? Course he was, Is something up then? Like really up?" Carol still clutching his hand looked him straight in the eye took a deep breath and swallowed heavily. "Dave, Dave, no no no" He was now in a state of confusion. "You've come here unexpected, uninvited and start getting all emotional, what's the problem then?" Carol's head now in her hands, she grabbed his hand again and finally plucked up the courage to tell him straight. "Dave, oh Dave you poor thing, Derek's been dead for three weeks."
