Date: Thu, 9 Dec 2010 20:45:05 -0700 From: dnrock@rock.com Subject: John & Cory 9 Jonathan and Cory By: dnrock(dnrock@rock.com) 9: New Ventures While chapter 8 was transpiring Myron did try boys and found them or one specific boy, much to his liking. John had urged his friend to visit John senior for advice. Myron was no stranger in the Cuttler household and was greeted as a long lost child. Not that he had been truly lost; he had been a constant child visitor but inconsistent as an adult. When he explained the situation and added Cory's comments to Principal Cuttler, he was most pleasantly surprised by the response. "Myron I have a 16 year old boy, named Tyler, I want you to meet him. I think you should consider him as a care giver/house boy in your home. I know he has lots of experience in both roles. I am sure your situation would be good for him, good for you and most importantly good for your girls." John Senior told him. Myron listened intensely as John described the lad. "How do you know so much about him Mr. Cuttler, he must be more than just another student," Myron asked? "I think you need to call me John, your not one of my students any more. Dr. Samson and I are his legal guardians. He has been living, as a part time house boy, with Mr. Jackson, the math teacher. You must remember him? Tyler has been looking after Carlton Jackson for two years now but Carl had another stroke, just after school ended. He will need full time care for some months yet and Tyler needs to continue his education. I think you two will hit it off in more ways than one. He is boy enough to try and girl enough to be a good nanny. Why not call him and go out on a date or two," John Senior told him. "I don't know John, I never dated a boy before," Myron said. "Myron, it is no different than dating a girl, you remember how to do that. Tyler is quite a sissy boy and I think you will find him very much like a girl, in many outward respects. I am sure he will greatly benefit from your mentorship." They did and soon Myron and Tyler were sleeping together. Myron did remember how and he reveled in the same feelings he had once known but thought were gone forever. Tyler is about average height, lightly built, with light brown hair, brown eyes and wide smile, reddish lips that make little dimples at the corner of his mouth. Tyler has no illusions about himself or his new relationship. He had been a man's boy since he was 12, since he was expelled from his "so called home", as he puts it. He was taken in by Carl as an emergency foster parent and he just never left. Tyler and Carl were not lovers, they were friends. Carl loved the boy but not in a physical sense. He could not do that. Tyler's sexual experience was from his peer group. Carl even gave his car to Tyler so he could visit him frequently. Carl would never drive again and would likely need to live in a care facility. Tyler was greatly saddened to see his friend and mentor suffering such great physical disability. He understood that he needed to get on with his life and that the level of care Carl needed was beyond his ability and training. Dr. Samson did not hold out much long term hope of Carl recovering. He had seen this kind of thing before. It had started with a long series of micro strokes. Often the micro strokes lead to major strokes of increasing severity. In Carl's instance the condition progressed rather quickly from micro to major. Should Carl suffer another major he would likely not survive. Tyler realized all this. That did not make it easier from the emotional side. Carl was always his rock, has guide. Now he needed to be strong for Carl. Now he needed to find some peace and stability in his life, so he would have that strength. Dr. Samson and John Senior believe Tyler needed to be removed from the almost constant care giving responsibilities. The boy needed to focus his attention on more mundane things like school and being a teenager. Carl needed to give up his home and move into an extended care facility. Tyler understood the words, he had not come to terms with the emotions. Myron would provide not only a distraction but also fill the emotional void being created in the lad's life. While all this was happening Brenda's life was also taking on new and potentially exciting dimensions. With Cory away for most of the summer she found herself spending more and more time with her male friends. One friend emerged in late summer as the primary. Cory was maturing fast. He was growing of course. He was expanding his intellectual horizons as well. Mom was doing the same thing, expanding her horizons. Her relationship with William, a youngish lawyer in her office, was gaining momentum. William was the one that had been in the car accident. He and Brenda had dated some and even slept together a few times. Working so closely during his recovery and with Cory on the road, things just got a lot more intimate. ............ Heitor, a handsome Brazilian model or better his agent, who has been doing a lot of work for one of the underwear producers, approached Jonathan The Photographer. Apparently he and his agent were impressed by John's work and less then impressed with the photographers he had been working with. John looked at Heitor's portfolio. He did not see any problems with the skills of the photographers. His interpretation was dissatisfaction with the presentation, i.e. art direction. That can be a problem when the model is secondary to the product. If the product is any way unique or different that becomes the focus, not the model. If the product is more or less homogenous, like undies, then the model's looks are more important than the product itself. Using the undies example again, if they are different in color or pattern then both need to be balanced. Kevin was able to make a good deal for several shoots, not advertising. These would be marked through JTP's subscription service. John thought much in the style of Playgirl but with less distracting backgrounds. Heitor wanted to make a sensual, not sexual statement. His manager said, "lets keep 'um guessing." That John would do. He had Cory move a simple set into the studio. Just a few tasteful props, all very bland and vanilla. "Heitor, I intend to work mostly from the tripod, I will use another hand held for some shots. I want you to stay in the zone bounded by the gray floor tiles. Cory will move the reflectors or lights as needed. Now tell me exactly what mood you want to create and what your story is to be?" John believes every picture is its' own narrative. The photo shoot, as a whole, is also a narrative, each image a chapter or subchapter. He will take a couple of hundred pictures and present perhaps 75 or 80 in the final product. Working from the narrative concept, he will direct the model and adjust the poses on that basis. The set was little more then a tasteful floor lamp, a leather lounge and a non desrcript glass topped table. John likes to work in tight but he also likes to have creative license. He always tries to shoot his models with just enough surrounding frame to allow for cropping. Heitor is dark and suntanned. John likes lots of contrast in both light and color, where possible. "Cory will keep a spot light meter on your assets and make adjustments as required, to properly expose and highlight them, Heitor." Heitor smiled at Cory and winked. The make up people came into the conversation. John wanted their input. Heitor wanted his body oiled but John suggested this shoot should not be done that way. For him an oiled body needed a much different mood and significantly different lighting. In fact, John wanted to use as little makeup as possible. He liked the fact that Heitor was almost hairless, except for his well trimmed pubis and a hint of a treasure trail. For this set he would also be clean shaven. The make up people would only tone down any shine, except where highlights were needed and cover a few minor blemishes, Heitor did not wish seen. Cory was absolutely fascinated by the conversation and the model. He had never encountered anyone quite as professional in manor or as artistically attuned, as Heitor. Cory has a very limited experience base. Cory was also much taken by this handsome Brazilian model's sensuality. Given Heitor's complexion, for John to do an oiled set, would suggest very strong lighting, high contrast, probably black and white. Perhaps in a somber mood. Everyone agreed in the end with John's general approach. No oil for the first set and oiled with strong lighting for a second. This would take several days to complete. Heitor's manager headed back to New York. Heitor did not know anyone in this city. John and Cory offered to provide some local hospitality. John had no clear picture what Heitor's sexual orientation was. He did not think him all that interested in young boys. His reaction to Cory was just too professional. He did seem to appreciate Cory's interest in him. John called Brenda inviting her to have dinner with them at Marcel's. Brenda already had a date but agreed to bring him. Heitor appreciated the company and meeting these new people. He enjoyed the conversation and the interest everyone expressed in Brazil, his family and home city, San Paulo. Business was not discussed, except Heitors praises of Cory's skills and professionalism. He is a charmer and knew how to ingratiate himself to Brenda and her date. Cory's extra professional relationship with John was obvious to him. John's, Kevin's and Cory's professionalism and warm hospitality combined to make him feel comfortable and truly welcome. These people did not want anything more from him then earned respect and his friendship. Marcel was always the gracious host and when Cory introduced Heitor to his Uncle Marcel and mother, he suddenly felt more at home in the United States then he ever had before. His experience to date was mostly in New York City, Chicago and L.A. The people he had been working with were, for the most part, self adsorbed and often pretentious. These people were real. Much like his own family and the community he had grown up in. All during dinner Heitor flirted with the swishy assed waiter. John was sure Heitor was going to get laid before the night was over. Cory was so worked up from watching Heitor, he was almost unable to contain himself. Lying naked on the bed, with John, only increased his desire. Cory wanted sex, he wanted love too but right now he wanted lustful, raw sex, more. After several long kisses John eased Cory down along his body until the lad's mouth aligned with his erection. Turning slightly to their sides John eased his penis into Cory's open, inviting, waiting mouth. John began undulating his hips pressing the sword into this hot, wet sheath. Cory was of two minds, he wanted John to spill his seed into this mouth and he wanted to make slow earnest love to it at the same time. He want John to fuck him too. He wanted to feel John's cock sliding past his prostrate until he came, hands free. ........................ Once school started the lovers were required to moderate their activities. John would have up coming trips that Cory would not be able to attend. Cory would have homework and school activities keeping him busy. Cory could do some of the photo editing from home, that was true. They could talk frequently. Cory could see John on the weekends. John had other ideas too. He became an assistant gymnastics coach and enrolled both of them in his old dojo, with Sensei Sannan. Most days Cory would head from school to John's for some physical training and swimming. John found himself arriving early at work, so he could leave early to meet Cory. Cory had his 14th birthday in late September. John gave him a pair of diamond ear studs and launched Cory's Friends, the Young and Wrestles -- Series. Within a few weeks of launch it had become highly popular. Kevin had a small staff employed to keep it all functioning. John had filmed Cory sitting in the park, across the street from Marcel's cafe, giving an introduction. "Hi everybody, I'm Cory Wright and I am a very lucky boy. I get to travel all over the world and make new friends. Not only that, I have the chance to learn about different cultures, learn new languages, see just awesome places and things. Even better, I get paid to do it. Under the General tab you will find pictures of me as I visit these wonderful places and pictures of me and my new friends, just hanging together and having fun. Those are not the pictures we get paid for, so you can see them, subscribe to my Cory's Friends or not. We models are paid for the art work, that you will find in the various series groupings in the subscription area. My new friends are models too, so you will also see them posing as you see me. I will tell you about my adventures and my friends will tell you about themselves. Jonathan will also be giving you some technical data about the wonderful photographs he creates. Many of our images are available for purchase. You can see the catalogue under the "Purchase Images" tab. Management tells me that they will be posting a new set of images and adding to the catalogue every week. If you are not an English speaker, you can hear me in translation by selecting one of the flags below this window. Don't be fooled, the translations are not my voice. They tell me I am talented but not so talented that I can speak all these different languages. Jonathan assures me the language readers were selected partly because their voices are close to mine. All the text within this site has also been translated, just like this video. You can leave your comments or messages under the Message tab. I will not be able to respond to all of them. Mom insists my priorities are school, sports, my share of the housework, modeling & photography, in that order. Only after those duties are completed can I socialize or engage in entertainment. Answering your email and comments are considered socialization / entertainment. I must go now, Mom wants me to clean my room and I still want to ride my bike." Cory gave a wave, picked up his helmet and the video ended. John had Cory dressed in his blue and silver biking outfit. They had a big launch party at Marcel's, mostly for family and adults. Marcel was thrilled, not just to have the business, he has a good steady cliental anyway. He was glad that Cory and John wanted to share their joy and happiness with him and his staff. Brenda was very much impressed by the quality of John's photographs and Cory's obvious modeling skills. She recognized that any kind of art like this, was a calibration between the model and the photographer. Her son had a personality that just came through to the viewer. As to true talent or beauty she was not objective. It was obvious others had opinions and those opinions seemed positive. While she was always pleased with John and Kevin's approach to business and her son, this arrangement almost blew her away. Assuming success, Cory would make a lot of money. Kevin had set up a trust fund for that money and made her administrator until Cory was 21 and co-administrator until he was 30. In addition, she would serve as a member of the company's board of directors, until Cory was 18. She still had some questions in her mind about John's ultimate intentions, as related to her son; but as long a Cory was happy and on a solid path, she would keep her own council. She never understood his father and assumed she would never completely understand his son, their son. She was also glad to see the progress Cory had been making in his sports, give the short time he had been active in them. Cory is a better actor then she imagines. He seems to know how to play the game. John had admonished him not to let anyone know he is gay, if he is. His advice, "just be like me, as much as you can. Gay as hell but not without some female experience and many female friends. Best to just keep them guessing. Like many of the models I photograph, they come in all varieties. We create illusions and let the admiring public have what ever they wish to believe, and Cory, they will do just that. You will get admiring letters from girls and boys. Your job is always give them hope. If your images give them sticky panties or semen filled briefs, you don't care. Your job is to bring pleasure to others, regardless of gender." Cory paid a lot of attention to John nieces and nephews, after all they were adopted cousins. His biological grand parents came as did his mother's sister. Most of John sisters and their families also came. Except for Sandra, they all assumed John and Brenda were some kind of item. Sandra knew different but kept these things to herself. John's parents were impressed by Brenda. Mom figured there was hope for her only son after all. Dad knows better. They have both adopted Cory as another grandchild. One more makes no difference anyway, the present count is 14. Cory managed to show significant attention to the older female cousins. Brenda liked that. He also paid lots of attention to his new cousin Edward, almost all under the table and between Ed's legs. Cory later told John, "Ed is gay and a big sissy but he has a huge cock. We need to get him on our team." John told him what Sandra had asked him to do. They both laughed. "Well I started, now you follow up, John." In addition to the families, most of the web staff also attended. They turned out to be computer nerds and geeks with limited social skills, all highly likable. They all seemed truly glad to meet Cory and John, since most of their work was remote from the studio. Cory's ghost writer lives in another city and the translators are spread around the world. Many of them dropped in via Skype on a large screen display, as did a number of the models. Cory told everyone he hoped this project would create a large family that incorporated all of them. Kevin wondered if he and John had created some kind of monster but given the responses, he realized it just might work. Some of the models asked to have their personal email addresses included, so fans could contact them directly. Cory looked at John and several of the staff for conformation. "Sure we will do that. Just send us the info, face book stuff or what ever you feel comfortable with," he announced. For a good number of these models the relationship with "Cory's Friends" and Cory, would be strictly professional, for some like Jan and a good number of the Prague people, a true friendship would result. No one could predict how successful this venture would be or how long it would last. Kevin realized right off that Cory and John, perhaps himself too, would need to travel the world, at least three times a year, just to keep fresh material flowing. Cory's school friends were simply astounded at how much Cory had changed over the summer. They knew what he had been up to and how much fun Cory was having in his new job and apparently new profession. Cory just seemed to treat everything as one grand adventure. It was that and for a 14 year old in grade 9, more than just grand. When they learned of the new web site, one with his name in the title, that was too much. He seemed to be spending hours answering questions about the other models and of course, all those seemingly exotic places. All the sports training he did was also beginning to show on his body and in his performance. Suddenly Cory was an item of desire, at least for the girls and a few of the boys too. Cory become a school celebrity. He was not dealing with it all that well either.
