Chapter 21 - An Olive Branch. 



Friday night didn't turn out to be as big of a problem as I feared, and I slept fairly well.  When I woke up the next morning, I went through my morning ritual and grabbed my gym bag so I could head to the Y.  This was the workout I normally did alone, so I didn't expect it would be a big deal.  I planned on swimming long and hard and hoped it would be enough to tire me out so I wouldn't miss the boys after I got back to the apartment. 

To my surprise, a couple of other boys I knew came over to speak to me when I stopped to take my first break from swimming laps.  Neither of them were in the drama club, but the first boy, Devin, was in one of my classes.  The other boy I'd met here at the Y over the holiday, since he was friendly with one of the other boys that hung out with me, although I can't remember which one introduced us.  If I remembered correctly, his name's Hunter and he didn't hesitate about coming over to say 'hi' to me with his friend. 

I talked to them for a few minutes, and then I started swimming laps again.  When I stopped to take another break later, they waved and smiled at me, but didn't come over to chat again.  After I swam my final set of laps, I got out of the pool and headed toward the locker room.  I decided to sit on the bench and rest for a short time before I took my shower, and I was just taking off my swimsuit when the other two entered the locker room. 

"Hi, again," they said as they walked past. 

I said the same thing in reply, and then I grabbed my towel and went to rinse off.  A few seconds later they were entering the shower too, and they were also naked. 

"My mom always tells me to shower after I swim here, or else she complains that I smell like chlorine when I get home," Devin said to explain what he was doing. 

"Yes, the person who takes care of adding the chemicals to the pool seems to have a heavy hand when it comes to adding the chlorine," I agreed. 

"I hope I get you for a teacher next year," Hunter followed.  "The other guys say you're a really good teacher, and you're pretty cool too.  I like that you come swimmin' here and that you did it with the other boys before.  Do you come here a lot?" 

"Yes, I like to workout, and I really enjoy how I feel after I'm done for the day," I agreed as I finished washing up and headed back to my locker. 

I was amazed that neither boy had tried to cover up when we were in the shower together, but I didn't get the feeling that either of them was gay.  They were both just friendly and seemed to be used to showering with others, but I wasn't sure if it was from doing it at school or because they usually did it here before they left.  However, I enjoyed checking them out, but it ended up working against me, because it reminded me about how I was going to miss the boys when I got back to the apartment. 

After driving there, I grabbed a quick bite to eat, but the entire time I was eating I kept seeing those two naked boys.  I also began to see images of the other boys, while at the same time remembering the various things I'd done with them.  Needless to say, those thoughts had me hard and in need of getting off, so I decided to masturbate.  I hadn't had to do this since the boys started showing up and asking me to do stuff with them, but I expected this might become the norm again, now that I was only going to see them once a week. 

After I'd flogged the donkey, I went out and began working on my lesson plans for the upcoming week.  I also corrected a few papers, and then I decided to watch TV.  There really wasn't anything on that I wanted to see, but I couldn't think of anything else to do, so I kept flipping through the channels until something caught my attention.  I continued watching TV until I got ready for bed, and I was already looking forward to seeing the boys at the Y the following afternoon. 

I slept fairly well that night and seemed more energetic than normal the following morning.  I was thinking about the boys as I fixed breakfast, as well as when I sat down to eat.  It had only been a day and a half since we'd last been together, although it seemed more like a week.  Next weekend shouldn't be as bad, though, because we'd be getting together later on Saturday and then I'd see them at the Y again on Sunday.  I decided this was just another indication of how much I wanted to be with the boys and that I might even be addicted to them. 

I got to the Y a little earlier than usual, and then I sat on the bench and waited for the boys to show up.  I was thrilled when I saw their smiling faces as they walked toward me, and then they whispered to me before they began undressing. 

"I not only used the bat again, but I had to jerk off three times yesterday," Gary told me.  "It's awful that we can only be with you once a week." 

"Yeah, I had to jerk off a bunch of times too," Nolan confirmed. 

"I think we all did," Will added.  "Are you sure we can't come over after we get done here?" 

"Yes, we've got to be careful." 

"Even though me and Tucker spent time together yesterday, it wasn't the same," Jon confessed.  "We didn't have no place where we could do somethin' with each other." 

"Yeah, this new way sucks," Tucker agreed.  "I hope we can start doin' it more often before too much longer." 

"We'll keep doing it this way for as long as I think it's necessary," I replied.  "Now, let's get changed so we can jump in the pool." 

I think they were going to continue arguing with me, but they stopped when Nigel and Rory showed up to join us.  Once they were ready too, we went out to the pool and spent a couple of hours playing tag and doing a few other things, and then we returned to the locker room to shower and change. 

After I said goodbye to the boys, I returned to my apartment.  I immediately began messing around with some things I had to do for school, but images of the boys continued popping into my mind the entire time.  It got so bad that I had to masturbate again before going to bed later, to ensure that I didn't have a nocturnal emission.  I had a feeling my dreams would be filled with visions of the boys again and that might cause another accident, so I'd rather be safe than sorry.  I totally understood why the boys wanted to get together more often, but it would have to wait until I found a new place to live. 

Monday was a fairly normal day, until I went to rehearse Act Two with the kids.  Tucker pulled me aside as soon as I got there, because he wanted to fill me in about something.  "I just talked to Braedon about swimmin' with us.  I told him where I live, and he says he doesn't live very far away, so it will be easy to ride his bike there.  He also got excited when I told him to just bring his swimsuit and towel cuz we all changed there too.  I could tell he was really looking forward to seeing us all naked." 

"I'm sure he was, and I'm glad this is going to work out."

The practice went quite well, and the kids did much better than the previous week.  I take it they had all spent at least part of the weekend studying their lines, so I was sure Thursdays rehearsal would go just as well. 

After Tucker's comment the previous afternoon, I wasn't surprised when Braedon stayed after class so he could speak with me alone on Wednesday.  "Me and Tucker talked about swimmin' yesterday.  He told me they all take their stuff and change there."  He was practically beaming when he was telling me about this. 

"Did he tell you that I meet them there, so we can all swim together?" 

I thought his eyeballs were going to pop out of their sockets.  "No, you do?  Does that mean you'll be changin' with us too?" 

"Yes, I always change and shower with the boys when we're there together.  A couple of other boys usually join us too, but they're not gay."  I added the last part in a whisper. 

"And they don't care about bein' in with us?" 

"They don't actually know the rest of us are gay, so don't do anything that will make them suspicious, like staring at their junk." 

"Ok, but this sounds like it's gonna be really great.  I already asked my mom and dad if I could go on Sunday, and they only wanted to know who I was goin' with.  I just told them some boys from school asked me to join them and I would ride my bike over to one of their houses and ride with them.  They said it would be alright for me to go then, so now I can't wait.  How many boys will be there?" 

"Besides you, there will be seven boys and me." 

"I've never done nothin' like this before, and I can't wait.  This is gonna be the best thing ever.  Thank you for talkin' to me about things and doin' this for me.  This really means a lot, and it will help so I don't feel like I'm the only one." 

"I'm glad I could help, but you better get going to your next class so you aren't late.  If you are, just tell your teacher that I held you after class to have a chat." 

"K, and thanks again." 

He went rushing out of my classroom without running, and I got ready to start working with my next class.  I was glad to see that this had made Braedon's day and gave him something to look forward too, but it would also give me a chance to see him naked, so it was a win-win situation. 

Braedon was really friendly to me on Thursday as well, and I don't remember ever seeing him smile as much as he has since I talked to him about his essay.  He's seemed especially happy these past few days and was thrilled that there were others at the school who were like him.  He was even more excited that he'd get to see them naked too, and I think he was thrilled that he'd be seeing me without any clothes on as well.  Now, he just had to hold out until Sunday.   

Just as I expected, Thursday's rehearsal went very well, and I took the opportunity to pull each of the boys aside at various points so I could remind them about Saturday.  When I spoke with Tucker, he had something else he wanted to tell me. 

"Braedon's really excited about swimmin' with us.  I don't think he's seen any other naked boys before." 

"Yes, I got that impression too." 

"I also warned him about Nigel and Rory, and he said you'd already told him about them.  I explained about their dicks too, so he wouldn't stare at them.  I think Braedon's dick must be like ours, cuz he didn't know that all dicks didn't look the same." 

"I'm glad you explained that to him, but I hope you did it so no one else could hear what you were talking about." 

"Yeah, we did it after school again, when nobody else was around." 

That took care of another concern I had, so I hoped Braedon wouldn't end up staring at Nigel and Rory's penises like Tucker and Jon had done.  I didn't think Nigel and Rory would overreact if he happened to do that, though, seeing they'd been so good about explaining it to the other two, but I'd keep my eyes and ears open, just in case.

Friday as Braedon was leaving class, he stayed behind until the other students had left the room, and then as he passed by, he looked at me with a broad smile plastered on his face.  "Bye, Mr. Roberson.  I'll see you Sunday at the Y." 

"Yes, you will, Braedon, and I'm looking forward to seeing more of you." 

It took a few seconds for him to catch my meaning, and then he laughed.  "Yeah, I'm lookin' forward to seeing more of all of you too." 

That afternoon I went home, put a load of laundry in the washer, and then I started fixing something to eat.  While the food was in the oven, I went back to the laundry room and moved my things out of the washer and placed them in the dryer.  Then, I returned to eat while I waited for the clothes to dry. 

I was thinking about the boys the entire time, and I tried to imagine what Braedon was going to look like naked.  I already knew a great deal about his build and appearance, so I just had to fill in the blanks concerning his chest and groin.  Since he and Tucker were in the same grade and Tucker had already indicated that Braedon was most likely circumcised, I mentally transposed the missing parts from Tucker's body to my image of Braedon.  Now, I felt I had a fairly good idea about what to expect. 

Just to be on the safe side, I decided to masturbate before I went to bed, to avoid any sticky problems later.  I was glad I'd done that by the time I woke up in the morning, because I'd experienced one erotic dream after another about the boys.  If I hadn't taken that precaution, not only would I have been a mess, but the bed would probably have had a huge wet spot that wouldn't have been completely dry by the time the boys got here later. 

I hurried around and went through my normal morning routine, and then I grabbed my gym bag and headed to the Y for my workout.  When I got to the locker room, the same two boys from the previous week were there again.  They were sitting on the bench fully dressed, so I wasn't sure if they had just arrived, or if they were getting ready to leave.  That question was soon answered for me. 

"We weren't sure if you'd be here or not," Devin said as soon as he saw me, and then the three of us began to change.    

Devin was the boy who was also in one of my classes.  He had black hair, an olive complexion, brown eyes, and a three inch (7.5 cm) flaccid, circumcised penis, with a triangular pubic patch above it. 

"Yeah, we was hopin' you'd show up again, cuz this time we want to swim laps with you," Hunter added. 

He had light brown hair and brown eyes, and his flaccid, circumcised penis was only about two and a half inches (6.5 cm) long, with a horseshoe pubic patch above it.  I was pretty sure they were both straight, so I wasn't sure why they came here hoping to run into me again. 

"I like to work out, and I try to do it fairly hard, but I don't mind if you swim with me, as long as you don't slow me down." 

"That's what we was hopin'," Hunter agreed.  "We figured doing this would help us get in better shape for lacrosse season." 

His comment just explained why they had been so comfortable showering with me, since they probably did it with their team too.  As soon as I'd agreed that I didn't mind them swimming with me, I wanted to explain something else before we jumped in the pool. 

"I take it easy on the first couple of laps, to give myself time to gradually warm up first, but then I start going much faster." 

"Ok, let's get goin' then," Devin agreed. 

The boys didn't have any trouble keeping up with me during the first set, and they came toward me when we took our break, so I assumed they were about to say something.  "That wasn't so bad," Devin stated. 

"Yeah, it wasn't bad at all," Hunter agreed. 

"It's the next set of laps when I start swimming even faster, now that my muscles are loose.  I do it like I'm competing in a long distance race, so I don't think you'll find this quite as easy." 

"That's ok, and we're ready to do that too," Hunter confirmed. 

"Yeah, we should be able to keep up with you." 

I took that as a minor challenge and went as hard as I could.  When I glanced over at them from time to time, I could see they were struggling to keep up this time, but they didn't appear ready to give up.  We swam four lengths of the pool, and then I stopped to take another break. 

"That one tired me out," Devin gasped, visibly exhausted. 

"Yeah, that was a lot harder," Hunter concurred in short, halting breaths. 

"Are you gonna swim more?" Devin followed, without sounding quite as bad this time. 

"Sometimes I swim another set of laps like the one we just did, but I'm not going to do that this time.  Instead, this set will be more like the first set in reverse, and the last couple of laps are designed to wind my body down and work the lactic acid out of my muscles." 

"Ok, that sounds good," Hunter replied.  "We'll do that with you too." 

After swimming the last set of laps, we went to the locker room and sat down for a few minutes to catch our breath.  As we were taking off our swimsuits, Hunter asked another question. 

"Do you do this every Saturday at the same time?" 

"Yes, I do." 

"Would you mind if we came and did it with you each week, unless we have a lacrosse game that day?" he followed. 

"No, that's fine with me.  This is a public pool." 

"Yeah, but it's better if we do it with you," Devin countered. 

As we were showering, I checked them both out again, while also wondering why they wanted to do this with me.  They could always swim laps on their own, because I didn't do anything unusual when I did this, so I wasn't sure why it was so important to them.  Neither one seemed to be checking me out, so it wasn't so they could see me naked, then it had to be my charming personality. 

After we got dressed, the boys thanked me for letting them swim with me today, and then they said they'd see me next week as they were taking off.  I waited a couple of minutes before I left too, so it wouldn't be quite as apparent that we'd been together.  I wasn't sure if there might be anyone else around who would attempt to grill them about who I was if they saw us together. 

I had a couple of hours to kill before the other boys showed up, so I began working on next week's lesson plans.  I had just finished up and put things away when I heard a knock on my door.  I couldn't believe that I hadn't left it so they could just come in, so I rushed over to open it for them. 

"Sorry, my mistake," I said as they passed by. 

"It's ok, and this time your with me," Nolan stated.  "I want you to do it like you did with Will, so I can see if you can make me cum too." 

"Nothing like getting right to the point," I quipped. 

"And remember that I want you to use the blue one on me again," Jon quickly added. 

"I haven't forgotten." 

"Braedon's really excited about tomorrow," Tucker said next.  "He's lookin' forward to seeing all of us with nothin' on." 

"Yes, he mentioned that to me on Friday.  He's also happy that there are other boys like him, because he didn't think anyone else at school was gay." 

"Did you warn him about Nigel and Rory?" Gary gasped, looking concerned. 

"Yes, we both did.  He understands everything now, so don't worry." 

"Ok, that's good." 

"Are we gonna get started now?" Nolan followed. 

"Yes, we can do that if you're ready."

Nolan wanted to go first, and the others had agreed to watch, since they wanted to see if he'd cum while I was fucking him, just like Will had done.  I did everything exactly the same as I'd done it with Will, including placing the towel on the bed in case it happened, but Nolan didn't have a hands-free orgasm. 

"It's different for everybody, so don't make a big deal about it," I commiserated when I saw him looking disappointed.  "It doesn't happen for everyone." 

"That's ok, Mr. Roberson.  It still made me feel really good.  I thought I was gonna cum, cuz my nuts were all tingly, but then it just didn't happen." 

"I'm glad you're not too disappointed." 

"Nah, it's ok."

"And I'm goin' next," Jon followed. 

"Is it ok with the rest of you?" 

They all nodded in response, so I got out the blue dildo and began working on him next.  He did much better this time and didn't appear to be in any pain, which mildly surprised me.  After I finished with him, he looked at me and smiled. 

"So can I do it with Gary now?" 

"Before I answer you, do you mind telling me why it went so much easier this time?" 

Jon blushed.  "Yeah.  I found a flashlight that was about the right size, so I put Vaseline on the bottom of it, so I could use it to practice with." 

"Well, that certainly answers my question.  Ok, you can do it with Gary if you want." 

"Yay!" he squealed. 

"But I did it with Will the last time," Tucker whined. 

"I'd forgotten about that.  Would you mind fucking Will again, if we let Nolan fuck you afterward?"

"No, that will be ok." 

"Fine, then Will can fuck me after you're done."

I guess that settled all of the problems, but this was starting to become very confusing.  I might have to start keeping a list of who was with whom, so I could avoid these problems in the future." 

"Is the new kid gonna start doing this with us too?" Nolan asked while he was waiting his turn. 

"Maybe eventually, but I want to see how the swimming goes first.  He told me his family would hate him if they discovered he was gay, so I don't want to involve him in this if I think his parents might find out.  I have a feeling his dad would raise a major stink over it, which would include you boys too." 

"K, I just wondered. 

Once everyone had their turn, and seeing Jon had done so well with Gary fucking him, I told him he could get in the mix and start doing it with the others from now on.  Once the  boys left, I began to think about something, because Jon had done this much faster than Tucker.  That's when I remembered that Tucker had been hesitant at first, because he was afraid it would hurt, so he was the one who'd slowed himself down.  He had me use the smallest dildo on him a lot longer than Jon had, and then Tucker also took a lot longer on the blue dildo too.  He also never did anything on his own, so that's why it had gone so much quicker with Jon.  I was just glad it had worked out so well for him. 

Since my needs had been taken care of, I didn't think about the boys as much for the rest of the day, except for Devin and Hunter.  I still hadn't figured out why they were showing up to swim with me, unless it actually was to help them get into shape before the lacrosse season started.  They could have done it on their own, but maybe it was so I could push them a little harder, so I guess I'd just have to wait and see if another explanation popped up at a later date. 

I also thought about Braedon a couple of times, as I wondered how he was going to fit in with the rest of the group tomorrow.  I hoped he had been sufficiently warned so he didn't upset Nigel and Rory, but I didn't expect any trouble from them either, at least not if they wanted to keep swimming with us.  Otherwise, we could always change the time we did this together. 

I was worn out by the time I went to bed that night, primarily due to the swimming, the sex, and working around the house.  I slept like a log the entire night and couldn't remember having had any dreams.  That was highly unusual for me as of late, because I think I'd had at least one major dream every night since I started hanging around with the boys. 

I puttered around until it was time to leave, and then I headed to the Y, curious about how things were going to work out.  I sat and waited for the boys to show up, and they were joking around with each other as they entered the locker room. 

"I take it there were no problems with any of you doing this today?" I asked. 

"Nah, just that Braedon had to sit on Gary's lap.  My mom says we're gonna have to get a bigger vehicle if we keep adding more guys to our group," Nolan explained before laughing. 

"Everything went fine, so let's change and get in the pool," Tucker urged. 

"Don't you think we should wait for Nigel and Rory to get here, so we can introduce them to Braedon first." 

"Oh, yeah.  We'd better do that," Gary agreed. 

It was only a few minutes later before those two showed up.  "Sorry, but our mom was taking her time today," Rory apologized. 

"It's ok, and we waited so you could meet Braedon.  He's gonna be swimming with us from now on." 

I introduced the boys to each other, and then we changed.  Braedon was doing his best not to be too conspicuous as he checked out the other boys, but when he turned toward me, he smiled and basically posed so I could get a good look.  I think it had to do with the little comment I'd made to him when he left my classroom on Friday.  As I expected, he wasn't much different than Tucker, except his penis might have been a tad shorter, and he had a sparser patch of pubic hairs above it as well.  Other than that, it was pretty much how I'd pictured him in my mind.

He wasn't shy about checking me out either, and the look on his face told me that he'd never seen a grown man naked before.  Since he had already told me about his father, I should have realized that he probably wouldn't have ever seen his dad without anything on, and where else would he have seen another naked man?  I took my time and let him satisfy his curiosity, and then I signaled that it was time to put our swimsuits on. 

On the way to the pool, we explained to Braedon about what we usually did, and once again there weren't many other people there, so we got to play tag.  I think the lifeguard was used to us by now, because he merely nodded and smiled when we entered. 

We spent a couple of hours there and had quite a bit of fun.  The boys were all laughing and chatting with each other on the way into the locker room, and then we began to take our swimsuits off so we could shower.  As soon as we started doing that, Rory looked over at Braedon and spoke. 

"We saw you checking everyone else out earlier, so me and Nigel will explain to you about our dicks.  You probably noticed that we're not circumcised like the rest of you, but our dicks are still the same, and we'll show you what we mean." 

Nigel and Rory then pulled back their foreskin so Braedon could see their knobs, and then they covered them again, before exposing them once more.  They did that a few times until Braedon understood the difference. 

"I've never seen anything like that before, but I haven't seen another naked boy until today either.  Maybe I did when I was really little, but I just don't remember." 

"I guess that explains why you were checking everyone else out then.  We all do it so we can see how we stack up, and I saw you spendin' a lot of time staring at your teacher's dick too." 

Braedon blushed.  "Yeah, I've never seen one that big before," he admitted shyly. 

That worked out well, because Nigel and Rory didn't automatically assume that Braedon was gay.  As far as they were concerned, he was just a curious first timer trying to see how he compared to everyone else.  I was glad it had worked out so well. 

Once we were all dressed, I said goodbye to the boys and walked with them toward the lobby, but I left right way, before either of their rides showed up.  I was thinking about how well that had gone as I was driving home and concluded that I couldn't have planned it any better.  I was now interested in seeing if Braedon said anything about this when I saw him in class on Monday, because that might let me know where I'd take things from here.
