Greetings to all of my readers. Here's the next chapter in Heading Down The Long Road. I hope you enjoy it.

 

I hope that everyone has a safe and happy 4th of July!

 

Chapter 4

The next morning as they lounged in bed, Dave noticed a series of scars dotting Greg's back. "Wow, you have a lot of scars. Are they what I think they are?"

 

"If you think they're bullet-hole scars, you're right, seventeen in all, covering my chest, back, stomach and legs."

 

"I read that you had been shot in the line of duty, but I didn't know you were shot so many times."

 

"Yep, seventeen times." Greg reiterated, wishing he hadn't when he saw the wounded expression on Dave's face. "I was in the hospital for seven months, three of which were spent in intensive care. Both lungs were punctured and my spleen and right kidney had to be removed, as did part of my stomach and small intestine. The doctors gave me about a ten-percent chance of survival. I got lucky."

 

A tear escaped Dave's left eye. "Oh, God, baby. I wish I had known you then. I would have been by your side every step of the way taking care of you however I could." He slowly traced the scar on Greg's hip. "What about this? Where's this from?"

 

"It's from the same shooting incident. My left leg was badly shattered and my right hip was basically turned into a baby rattle. It took me fourteen months to be able to walk again. I can run, but not nearly as fast as I used to be able to. The doctors told me that it was unlikely that I'll ever do a hundred-yard dash in nine-point-five seconds again. The Boston PD wanted to give me either a desk job or a medical retirement, but I didn't want either, so I worked my ass off to regain as much of my mobility as I could."

 

Dave gently caressed Greg's ass and leg.

 

"Mmm, that feels good. Keep it up, though, and you might wake the sleeping giant." He murmured, referring to his more than generous endowment. "Oops, too late" He lazily turned over, revealing his rapidly filling dick.

 

"I still can't believe I had that monster all the way inside me." He said, slightly in awe.

 

"When is it going to be my turn?" Greg demanded.

 

"Excuse me?" Dave asked, not understanding.

 

"I've been inside you twice now and it was beyond incredible both times. When do I get to have you inside me?"

 

"I didn't know if you were strictly a top or were versatile."

 

"I don't know if I am or not. I've never been fucked."

 

"You're kidding, right?"

 

"No, I'm not. I've never met anyone that I felt comfortable enough with or trusted enough to allow them inside me until I met you."

 

"I'm honored. Are you sure you want to do this? You might not like it, which is fine with me."

 

"How else will I know unless I try it?"

 

Okay, we'll try it. I need to get some more condoms, though. We used the last one last night."

 

"No we didn't. You told me to pack a bag, so I came prepared." He jumped out of bed, rummaged through his bag and retrieved a box of condoms. "Will these suffice?"

 

"Are you expecting to use all of those this weekend?" Dave asked raising his eyebrows as he took in the sight of his new boyfriend holding up a large box of condoms.

 

"No, but it never hurts to be prepared, just in case." Greg responded slyly.

 

Dave pulled Greg into his arms and began to kiss him deeply. Greg responded by opening his mouth to allow Dave's tongue to explore. Dave gently positioned Greg on his back and began to kiss each bullet-hole scar, working his way down until he reached `the monster'. "At least this wasn't damaged." He said which elicited a giggle from Greg. He began a slow, sensual assault on Greg's eleven-inch, thick erection, licking and teasing the slit and the sensitive underside of the head until Greg was moaning and writhing with pleasure. He kept up the assault, slowly working his way up and down the shaft until a large bead of pre-cum formed on the head, which he quickly licked off, hoping for more. After a while he took the head into his mouth, flicking his tongue over the head. He gave his best effort to take all of Greg into his mouth, but he was just too big. "Enough!" Greg cried, raising his legs as high into the air as he could. "I want you inside me now!"

 

"Okay, but we're going to take it slow. Just know that the first time it's going to hurt like a bitch, but I promise you I'll do everything I can to minimize the pain. If it gets to be too much, tell me and we'll stop."

 

"But it's not fair to you, to be the bottom all of the time." Greg said

 

Dave took Greg's face in both of his hands and laid a tender kiss on his lips. "Honey, listen to me. It's important to me that our lovemaking is just as satisfying to you as it is for me, and if that means that I'm strictly the bottom in this relationship, that's fine with me, as long as you're happy. There are lots of gay couples where one is strictly the top and the other is strictly the bottom." He said, filling his tone with as much love and sincerity as he could.

 

"Name one."

 

"I can name two couples right off the bat, Kyle Matthews and Jayson Williams and Tommy Adams and Andy Martin."

 

"Really?"

 

"Yep, Kyle and Andy have never topped Jayson and Tommy."

 

"So you'd really be okay with me not liking to bottom?"

 

"Baby, look at me." Greg complied, looking deep into Dave's eyes. "I swear to you that it will not affect how I feel about you, nor will I ever hold it over your head."

 

Greg grabbed Dave and held tightly to him. "How did I get so lucky?"

 

"Believe me, I've asked myself that same question every day since you agreed to be my boyfriend."

 

"So let's do it."

 

"No, not yet, I want to make sure you're as relaxed as possible. Roll over on your stomach." As he did so, Dave reached into a nightstand drawer and pulled out a bottle of baby oil. Straddling Greg's hips, he squirted some oil into his hands, rubbed them together to warm the oil then began to gently massage Greg's neck, shoulders and back.

 

"Mmm that feels good. I'll give you a thousand years to stop." He murmured contentedly. Dave continued his massage until a soft snore escaped Greg's mouth. He gently got off of Greg, carefully got out of bed so as not to disturb him, covered him up and went in search of breakfast. A half hour later he returned to the bedroom with a tray loaded with bacon, sausage, scrambled eggs, blueberry waffles, warm maple syrup, butter, toast, coffee and orange juice. Setting the tray on a bedside table, he gently shook Greg. "Wake up, sleepyhead, breakfast is ready."

 

Greg slowly rolled over and opened his eyes. "Oh, baby, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to fall asleep and leave you unsatisfied."

 

Dave kissed him gently. "You didn't, honey. I need you to be totally and completely relaxed before I try to enter you."

 

"Well, you can't get any more relaxed that asleep, can you?" Greg said, chagrined.

 

"Nope, eat up, baby, you're going to need the energy." Dave said with a mischievous gleam in his eye. He set the tray on the bed between them.

 

"Wow! This looks awesome." He dug in. "Looks ain't deceiving. This food is delicious." They made short work of the huge breakfast. Greg lay back, rubbing his stomach. "That was totally awesome, Dave. Thank you so much. I'm stuffed."

 

Dave rubbed Greg's belly. "Not yet, but you soon will be. Why don't you jump into the shower while I throw this stuff into the dishwasher? Since this is your first time, I left something on the sink for you that you might want to consider using. It will make things easier for you"

 

Greg shot him a puzzled look then it dawned on him what he was talking about. "Okay. Be right back." He hopped out of bed and padded into the bathroom to prepare himself for what was to come. As the hot water from the shower caressed and kneaded his muscles, his thoughts turned inward. I've got to make this work. I need to have Dave fuck me. How else can I show him how much I love and trust him? But what if it hurts so much that I can't do it? He turned off the shower and toweled himself dry. He said he left something on the counter that would help. I wonder if this is it." He picked up a strange-looking plastic bottle with a long, narrow tip. What am I supposed to do with it? It was then that he noticed to note taped to the mirror. My beloved Greg, this bottle is filled with a special lubricant. In case you've never used one of these, simply insert the tip and squeeze all of the fluid up into yourself and keep it in. There isn't enough in the bottle to make you feel the need to expel it. Please trust me on this, baby. I love you with every fiber of my existence. Dave. Greg followed the instructions in the note and returned to the bedroom.

 

Dave had lit some candles and the smell of cinnamon filled the room. He patted the bed beside him. "C'mere you sexy beast."

 

Greg walked over and stood next to the bed. "You'll have to tell me what to do."

 

"First you need to get into bed with me."

 

Greg carefully got onto the bed, lying on his stomach, clenching his butt cheeks as tightly as he could. Dave began to massage them. "Relax, Greg. Please, relax. We'll take this a slow as necessary."

 

"I have to be careful. I don't want any of the stuff leaking out of me and ruining the sheets."

 

"You don't have to worry about it. The lubricant won't leak out, and even if it does, it's water-based so it will come out in the wash." Greg relaxed. "That's better. Now, come here." Dave gathered him in his arms and held him for a moment then began kissing him all over his face, before launching a sensual attack against his lips, an attack which Greg readily surrendered to. Slowly but surely he worked his way down, pausing to pay specific attention to each rock-hard nipple, before proceeding further south. Once he turned his attention to Greg's dick he started shaking with anticipation "Relax, baby. We're not going to do anything you're not ready for. He mounted a fierce oral assault on Greg's dick and balls, paying close attention to the sensitive underside at the base of the head and the sensitive skin between the ball sack and the anus. After a few minutes of licking and sucking, Dave moistened a finger and tickled Greg's secret entrance. "Relax baby. I'm going to go slow, but if it hurts or is uncomfortable in any way, let me know and I'll stop. We don't have to do this."

 

"I want to." Greg replied.

 

"Okay, but tell me to stop if it hurts." He slowly pressed his finger into Greg, who immediately came up off the bed with a yelp. Dave yanked his finger out. "I'm sorry baby. I'll stop. Like I said, we don't have to do this."

 

Damn, what the hell was that? "It's all right, Dave. It just suddenly felt like I'd been hit by a taser."

 

Dave chucked. "I take it you've never had a rectal exam?"

 

"No. Why do you ask?"

 

"That happens when the prostate gland is massaged."

 

"Wow, if it feels like that from just your finger, I can't wait to get your whole dick inside me. Please fuck me, Dave. I want you to so bad."

 

"Greg, baby, I'm not going to fuck you. I'm going to make love to you."

 

Dave turned his attention to Greg's butt, carefully preparing him for what was about to come, using first one, then two and finally three fingers to loosen and stretch Greg. When he felt that he was sufficiently prepared, he donned a condom and lubed himself. I'm going to enter you now. When you feel me, press down like you're going to the bathroom. That will help open you up. Be prepared, `cause it's going to hurt like a bitch, but I promise you that the pain will go away quickly. I need you to promise me one thing."

 

"What's that?"

 

"If you don't like it, or if the pain is too much for you, tell me and I'll stop. We don't have to do this. I'm totally fine with being strictly the bottom, as I said before. Promise me, Greg."

 

"I promise." We're going to do this, even if it kills me. Greg said to himself. "But I need to do this, no matter what."

 

"Why is it so important to you, to do something you might not like?"

 

"It's important to me that we be equal partners, in every way."

 

"We are equal partners, baby, in every way that matters. Okay, turn over on your stomach and spread your legs." Greg quickly complied.

 

"Take in a deep breath and let it out slowly. That's it. Now remember, when you feel me start to push into you, push out. Ready?" Greg nodded affirmative. Dave positioned himself at Greg's entrance and slowly but steadily pushed forward. "Push out, baby."

 

As soon as Greg pushed down, the head of popped in. Greg nearly came off the bed. "SON OF A BITCH, THAT HURT!"

 

Dave quickly pulled out, lay on his side and pulled Greg to him. "I'm so sorry, baby. I didn't mean to hurt you like that." He cried, tears flowing down his cheeks. "We won't try that again." He sobbed into Greg's chest.

 

Fuck! Now I've really done it. He's probably going to dump me because of this. Greg got out of bed and started putting his clothes on.

 

Dave grabbed Greg's wrist. "Where are you going, baby?"

 

"I don't know. I just know that you need to find someone better, someone who can give you what you need and someone who can satisfy you. An equal." He replied through the tears.

 

Dave sat up and gently pulled him down so he was sitting on the bed next to him. "Greg, baby, look at me. Look at me" he said more forcefully. "I have everything I need right here. I don't want anyone else. As far as being satisfied, you double-satisfy me."

 

"How so?"

 

"How so? You made me come twice last night without either of us even touching my dick. Just you being inside me."

 

"So?"

 

"Nobody has ever done that to me, ever. I can't even begin to describe how awesome it feels when you're inside me. If I could, I'd have you inside me 24/7/365. When you take me into that sweet mouth of yours, I come so hard I see stars. It's so intense I almost pass out each time. Greg, honey, I'd rather die literally than be without you."

 

Greg looked into Dave's eyes and there was no doubt whatsoever in Greg's mind that Dave was completely sincere in what he was saying.

 

Greg completely lost it then. He grabbed onto Dave and sobbed huge, heart-wrenching sobs. "I tried, Dave. I really did. I want so much to give you the one thing I've never, ever given anyone else."

 

Dave wrapped his arms around the hysterical man and rocked him gently. "And what's that, baby?"

 

"Myself. My virginity."

 

"Shhh... you did, baby. You gave yourself to me. It was the greatest give anyone has ever given me, second only to your love. I love you so much. Please don't leave me. I couldn't bear to live without you."

 

"No, I didn't. You weren't in me all the way. You didn't come inside me, but I still want you to. Can we try it again? I promise I won't be such a baby this time. It might not be so bad the second time around." Greg turned pleading eyes to Dave.

 

"If you're sure that's what you want."

 

"I'm sure." Greg replied as he rolled over onto his stomach and spread his legs.

 

Dave positioned himself at Greg's entrance and pushed ever so slightly. As before, when Greg pushed down, the head popped in. Dave remained perfectly still.

 

Greg hissed at the sharp burning pain which was not as bad as the first time his hole was breached.

 

"I'm sorry, baby. I can't bear to hurt you like this." Dave started to withdraw.

 

"Don't you fucking pull out of me!" Greg said between clenched teeth. He started to relax as he realized that just as Dave promised, the pain lessened. He pushed back slightly to take more of Dave into himself. Dave pulled out and pushed back in gently, going a little further, then stopping to allow Greg time to adjust. After about a minute or so, Dave repeated the process. He kept it up until about ten minutes later Greg felt Dave's balls up against his.

 

"You've got all of me baby. Are you okay?"

 

Greg nodded. Dave took this as his cue to begin moving. Slowly, gently he moved in and out of Greg. After a few minutes he pulled out.

 

"Did you come already?"

 

"No. Roll over, baby. I want to see your face as we make love." Greg rolled over. Dave grabbed his ankles and placed them on his shoulders and gently pushed back inside the body of his beloved. Within minutes Greg started thrashing back and forth, gripping the sheets tightly as each thrust of Dave's dick rubbed along his prostate, sending what felt to Greg like a million volts of electricity throughout his body.

 

When Dave's thrusting became harder and more erratic, Greg cried out. "My God, Dave, I'm gonna come!" His body convulsed and his dick erupted, sending the first volley over his head, hitting the headboard. The second volley landed on his face, with the remaining landing on his chest and stomach.

 

As he unloaded, Greg clamped down on Dave, pushing him over the edge. "I'm coming, baby!" he yelled as the filled the condom with a gallon of cum. He collapsed on Greg, kissing him gently. Noticing the tears in Greg's eyes, he asked "Are you okay, Greg?"

 

Greg shook his head. "It was the most incredible orgasm I've ever had, but I wasn't able to satisfy you. I'm so, so sorry."

 

"Baby, you did more than satisfy me. You were totally awesome."

 

"So why are you still hard?"

 

Dave flexed his hips slightly, sending a shudder up and down Greg's spine. "Because somebody had such a good time that he doesn't want to leave. He's ready for seconds."

 

"Go for it."

 

"Are you sure? You might be really sore tomorrow."

 

Greg, surprising Dave with a show of strength, flipped them over so that he was straddling Dave's hips. He started bucking up and down on Dave's dick. "Does this answer your question?" Within a few minutes Greg shot another load all over Dave as Dave filled the condom so full it broke.

 

In a panic, Dave cried out. "Greg pull off quick. The condom broke."

 

As a response, Greg rolled them both over, locked his ankles around Dave's waist and pushed his hips up so that the cum leaking out of the condom would flow deeper into him. "Yeah, I know. I was hoping it would."

 

"You did? Why?"

 

"I knew you wouldn't bareback me, even though we've both tested clean. I needed you to leave your cum inside me. It was the only way I could make you realize just how much I love you, need you and want to be yours. We belong to each other now." Dave was silent for a moment. "Please tell me what you're feeling." Greg asked as he pulled himself off Dave and laid next to him.

 

Dave reached over and absently started stroking him to full hardness. "No we don't quite belong to each other yet." Before Greg realized Dave's intention, he lubricated them both up and impaled himself on Greg's bare dick and rode it hard until Greg convulsed and shot a huge load deep into Dave. "Now we truly belong to each other." Dave pulled off, went into the bathroom and came back with a warm washcloth. After cleaning Greg and himself up, he crawled back into bed and pulled Greg close. "Get some sleep, baby. We have a big day tomorrow."

 

"We do?"

 

"Yep. It's my last day as Deputy Mayor and your first day on the LGBT task force."

 

"Are you sure you want to do this, give up being Deputy Mayor?"

 

"Absolutely. I think I can do more for the community putting my knowledge of politics and government to work at the LGBT Center as Director of Public Policy."

 

"If there's any way I can help you, you know I'm there."

 

"Thanks, baby. I'll take you up on your offer. Let's get some sleep."

 

They kissed deeply then drifted off to sleep, each looking forward to the challenges of their new positions.
