Chapter 12

After Jake had taken Sandpiper through the gap in the reef, he picked up
speed until we were back on foils. I wandered up to the flying bridge.

"Where are we headed Jake?"

"The closest place we can refuel and fill the water tanks is Jaluit. It's
about 300 miles."

"Any deserted islands close. I want to go someplace with no people for a
few days."

"Yeah Ed. Ebon is close, about 150 miles."

"Make it so Captain."

"Aye, aye Sir."

I went and sat down in one of the other command chairs on the flying
bridge.  Jake checked the chart for the course to Ebon and set the
autopilot.  Sandpiper gently heeled to the new course. I really didn't know
why I wanted to be away from people. I had totally enjoyed our visit to
Timatu. Just something inside said I needed it. Siam came up and handed me
an ice cold beer. I set it in one of holders on the chair. I lifted his
chin and kissed him.

"I love you so much Siam."

"I love you too Ed. You are only one I will ever love."

A short while later, Singh came up and handed Jake a cold beer. Jake
thanked him and then he walked over my chair. I wrapped my other arm around
him and pulled him close. I kissed him.

"Ah my first love, but not my only love. I love you two boys more than I
can even dream about."

"I, we, love you too Ed. We will always love you."

I had my arm around the two most important people in my life. I really
never wanted them to move. Both were contented just to have me holding them
as Sandpiper glided over the water. When I looked at Singh, I saw his black
almost curling hair framing an angular face with high cheek bones and
slightly up turned nose. His sensuous lips and almost pointed chin. Below
that was his smooth chest and two very prominent tits. Both very
dark. Farther down was a very light trail leading to his hidden
delights. Delights I loved as much as he loved mine. Singh was almost black
now, after spending so much time in the sun. When I looked at Siam, I saw a
round face framed by his honey brown hair bleached by the sun. His huge
eyes seemed to look directly into my soul. His very dark lips hid that very
pink tongue he could use to drive me almost insane with lust. The rest of
him was almost hairless. Smooth chest, prominent nipples, and flat belly
leading to very nice 6 inch uncut cock and tasty balls. Both boys almost
totally complimented each other. Both tasted wonderful and both had an
almost unending need to make love. And I could and did love them sometimes
for hours.

"Are you okay Ed?"

"Yes Siam, I am very okay. Just holding you two brings peace to my heart
and mind."

Both boys just snuggled closer.

I finally led both boys off the flying bridge and down onto the bow. We sat
close together in one of the loungers. I gave each a quick kiss and then
settled back with one of my boys in each arm. This was contentment. I just
closed my eyes and dreamed of these two wonderful lovers.

My quiet dreams were interrupted when Jake slowed Sandpiper. Had we arrived
already. I stood up with a boy on each arm and watched as Jake slowly
brought the Sandpiper into a long lagoon. I heard Sandpipers hook hit the
water and then the slight vibration in the deck disappeared as the engine
was shut down. I looked out at the lagoon. Almost as far as you could see
was a wide white sandy beach, with very high palms in the background slowly
moving with the light winds. When I looked down at the water, it was
crystal clear with a sandy bottom. I let both my boys go and dropped my
shorts. Stepped over the rail and dove into the water. When I came up for
air and rolled onto my back, I could see both Singh and Siam posed on the
rail. Both dove in at the same time and then started to swim toward me. I
rolled over and dove under the water. When they came to the spot they
thought I was they stopped and treaded water. I slipped up between them
grabbing there cute cocks just as I surfaced between them. Both grabbed me
and we all sank under water. When we surfaced the next time they had a hold
of my cock while I had a hold of both of theirs. They sputtered and
laughed. We let go of each other and slowly swam to the beach. As soon as
we were sitting on the beach I looked at Siam. He had longing in his eyes
that told exactly what he wanted. I pushed him to his back, lifted his legs
and pushed my hard cock all the way into his ass. Something inside took
over then and I almost rabbit fucked him. Fast quick strokes. His moans of
pleasure just pushed me to faster and harder. In no time I felt myself let
go inside him. It felt like a deluge was filling him. Not even thinking
about what I was doing, I pulled out of him and pulled him up so he was
sitting no my face. I rimmed his now very open hole of all the juices
draining from it. As he tried to bend over to suck my cock I held him
upright. After licking all I could I just pushed Siam off me and grabbed
Singh. I pushed him to his back and lifted his legs. The look of fear on
his face turned to one of pleasure as I entered him. I fucked him in short
fast stokes. It took a bit longer but I still blew a huge load into his
ass. Pulling out I pulled him up to rim him. After doing both boys in under
30 minutes I was spent, but I still wanted both boys inside.

"Now my loves I want you both in me. At the same time my loves."

They pushed my legs up until I was almost bent in halve. Siam entered
me. Then Singh stated to push his hard cock in behind Siam's. The pain of
having two cocks trying to enter me was extreme, but I kept a smile on my
face as I willed my body to relax. I think the smile became more of a
grimace as Singh pushed his cock inside me. Both boys were now inside my
ass, but both could not fuck me at the same time. Finally I heard Singh
tell Siam to start fucking. He would just hold himself inside me.

Siam could not go fast to start with. Their cocks were almost jammed into
my hole. But as Siam started to slide slowly in and out he was not only
stimulating me, he was also stimulating Singh's cock and he slid along on
both strokes. It did not take Siam long to unload and as he unloaded
Singh's cock fired its volley of sperm into me too. Both boys almost passed
out when they came. I wished at that point I could rim myself, just to
taste both their sweet loads together. We just collapsed on the beach in a
tangle of spent bodies.

After coming down from the massive rush I sat up.

"My loves, you both can fuck me at the same time anytime."

"As long as you do the same thing first Ed." Both boys chorused.

"Well I wish I could fuck both of you boys at the same time."

"I don't think either of us could handle you love, if you had two dicks."
Siam laughed.

I pulled both boys close to me and they took their favorite position with
their heads on my chest, with their legs intertwined with mine. This was
definitely heaven to me.

After laying and just relaxing for a while we sat up. Sandpiper was
silhouetted in the slowly setting sun. She was a beautiful yacht. Made more
beautiful by the two boys holding me. Without her, I would not have had
them.

I sent my boys to the yacht to get steaks. We would cook out on the beach
tonight. They ran to one of our zodiacs that was on the beach and headed
out. Jake came up and helped me build a fire. He was nude and I saw what
Randy liked about him. As we slowly built the fire the rest of my crew
slowly came in.

"So who is left aboard?" I asked Jake.

"No one Ed. We are not exactly alone here. There is, no danger here. These
are very safe waters."

"Well you are my Captain and I trust you Jake."

It took the boys along time to gather what I thought would be a simple cook
out.  When they came back the zodiac looked almost overloaded. They
unloaded a small table and started to pile all the stuff they brought to
shore. Jake walked up to both boys as they started to work, grabbed the
boys by their butts and shoed them away. Both came over and sat down.

"Jake said he's cooking tonight."

Like the roast pig we had on Timatu, food cooked over an open fire always
tasted so good. Jake proved another talent as the meal was delicious. Jake
even booted the boys away when they started to clean up. He had some of the
other crew do the clean up. We built the fire up and sat and enjoyed the
absolute silence in the lagoon. Only the crackling of the wood in the fire
could be heard.

"Wonderful dinner Jake. God this is so nice here." I said to Jake as he
handed me a drink.

"I thought it was time we returned the favor. Singh and Siam need a holiday
too sometimes."

Jake sat down and just looked out to sea. He had very unreadable expression
on his face.

Simon walked over and added more scotch to both our glasses. Jakes eyes
followed the boy even after he was almost hidden again in the dark.
"Something you want to talk about Jake?"

Jake never said a word. I was sure I knew what he wanted to ask, but was
not going to prompt him.

Singh took it out of my hands.

"You love him don't you Jake." Singh said.

"Eh, who, you mean Simon?"

"Jake, none of us are blind. We all see how you look at him and how Randy
does too. He might not have said it to you, but he has said it to Siam and
me. He loves you and Randy very much."

Jake got up and walked away into the darkness. I heard the sputter of the
zodiac engine and then saw its silhouette as it moved to the Sandpiper.

"We need to give him time boys. He always thought he could only love one
person at a time. Now he has two people that love him very much. He needs
time to adjust to that."

Everyone just seemed to be enjoying the quiet of the evening. The warm glow
of the fire giving the early night an almost ethereal feeling. I had
thought we were alone here on this island, but what I heard next was so out
of place in the south Pacific that it sent a shiver down my spine.

Siam grabbed me tight.

"What's that Ed? Ghosts?"

"No love. Not ghosts, pipes, bagpipes."

I had no idea where it was coming from or who could possibly be playing
them here on a deserted island in mid ocean. The sound went on and on,
sometimes louder and then very quiet.

"They sound so sad." Singh said.

"Yes they do, don't they." I said quietly.

Andy came out of the darkness and placed another log on the fire. He then
sat down beside us.

"What ever you said to Jake, sure has him in a quandary. The last time he
played his pipes was when your Uncle passed away. He was trying to decide
weather he could work for you or move on."

Jesus more surprises. I wonder how many other hidden talents Jake had. One
thing I knew for sure was he could sure play the pipes. I also knew his
other problem. He had always believed he could only love Randy and now I
was sure he loved Simon too. I think that scared him just a little bit. Not
so much that he loved two guys, but what happens if he finds another. I,
myself didn't think there would be a problem. Both Randy and Simon would
fill his whole life with their love for him.

The pipes slowly died and a few minutes later I heard the quiet sputter of
the zodiac. A few minutes later Jake walked up, bent down and pulled Singh
up and into his arms.

"Thank you Singh. Thank you." He said and set Singh down.

He walked over to Simon, pulled him up and whispered something to him. I
didn't hear what he said, but the reaction was instantaneous from
Simon. Simon wrapped his arms tightly around Jake and a mere heartbeat
later Randy too was hugging Jake. I watched as all three walked away into
the darkness.

I slapped Singh on his bare bottom.

"Put some wood on the fire and bring me some more scotch boy."  All was now
right with my family.

We spent three lazy weeks touring through the many islands of the
Marshalls. Last stop was Majuro, the Capital of the Marshall Islands. I had
two things to do in Majuro. One was to sign the papers for the Endowment
Fund for Timatu and the second was to see if I could get a passport for
Simon. The first took all of thirty minutes. The second it seemed not much
longer. It is surprising what a few well placed greenbacks will do to make
things happen. Three days after arriving Simon had a brand new passport
from the Marshall Islands.

Where to next?

There were litterly thousands of islands in the central and south
pacific. We were all in the lounge with a large map of the south pacific on
the table. After much discussion we all decided to head south again. First
to Fiji and then east to Tonga, Cook Islands and then Pitcairn Island. We
would then have to decide to head north again or straight east to South
America.

There were plenty of Islands along the way to stop and take a break.

Early the next morning we slipped quietly out of Majuro and headed
south. One thing that really astounded me was how good the weather had
been. We had, had several squalls pass over us and lots of rain, but for
the most part it was always sunny and warm. The only place on board where
clothes were required was in the engine room. Other than that everyone were
almost nude all the time. Even Jake and I both went around starker's some
of the time. The eye candy was always great. You would think sometimes with
all the virile young men on board, half the time they would be making love
or just enjoying each others delights. But except in the afternoons or
evenings everyone just took it as a natural way to be. Nude that
is. Everyone on board had specific duties, from cooking to cleaning or
taking watch on the bridge or in the engine room. The only one that found
himself at loose ends was me. I had no specific duties. As Jake had said to
everyone. I was the owner and employer, there fore was not required to do
anything.

I still always took a watch on the bridge from 1 pm till 4 each
day. Usually with one or more boys up there with me. Not always Singh or
Siam. With two exceptions, I had slept or made love to everyone on
board. Jake and Randy being the exceptions. Jake was a very good looking
man, and fairly well hung. Randy and the other two African boys were almost
as big as Esosa had been. All were uncut with very heavy balls. I would
very much like to have both Jake and Randy in my bed either alone or
together, but would never ask. So I was very surprised one afternoon, when
Randy came up to the bridge. He kissed me on the cheek.

"Ed, Jake and I would like to swap with you tonight."

"Swap?"

"Yeah, we would like you sleep with us tonight. We talked to Singh, Siam
and Simon and they are all for it, if you want."

"Randy, I would very, very much like to be in bed with you two."

Thinking about having that thick tube of Randy sliding into my ass started
to get me hard. It was not missed by Randy. As he reached down and grabbed
my cock.

"Ed, I have wanted this inside from the first day I met you."

"Me too love." I kissed him.

After being relieved by Aaron on the bridge I went down to the lounge. Both
Siam and Singh doted on me the rest of the day. Even Simon got into the
act. Jake had Aaron pull into a small bay of an island. There were two
other sailing yachts already anchored. We dropped our hook well away from
them. After a great dinner of fresh fish Andy had hooked the night before
we just sat letting the evening breeze fill the lounge.

I was a bit surprised when everyone seemed to disappear. Randy walked up
and grabbing my hand led me down to his and Jakes stateroom. After a quick
shower we laid on the bed. Jake came in a few minutes later and after a
quick rinse walked over to the bed. Now hard Jake had an at least an eight
inch, thick cock. Randy was both thicker and longer. This was going to be
an interesting night. Jake, without any ceremony straddled my chest and
pushed his mushroom head into my mouth. He really was big, it totally
filled my mouth. Randy just lifted my legs and after a brief minute of
rimming me, started to push his monster into me. It reminded me of Esosa as
his monster opened me up. Jake bounced up and down in my mouth as Randy
began long stroking my ass. God it felt good to have them both in me, even
as I choked on occasion as Jake rammed his cock into my throat. Both had
unbelievable staying power. Even after at least thirty minutes both were
now in rhythm as they fucked my face and ass. Jake suddenly pulled out and
turned and started to suck on my cock. He pushed his ass right into my face
and I let my tongue start working on his hole. I moaned as I felt Randy's
load filling my ass. That was like a signal as Jake climbed off me as Randy
pulled out. Randy straddled my chest and pushed his semi-hard cock into my
mouth. The taste of his cumm almost pushed me beyond my limits. Jake
entered me in one hard thrust. Then started to drive in and out very
quick. I had never been able to ever swallow all of Esosa, but now Randy
was driving all his cock in and out of my mouth and throat. I am not sure
how he managed it, but he turned a one eighty and went down on my cock,
while he continued to fuck my face. I knew his cock was all the way in my
mouth because his balls were resting on my face as bottomed out. The
repeated slap of Jakes balls I heard as well. I hoped this would never
end. Randy's mouth on my cock brought very fast to ejaculation. As I blew
in Randy's mouth Jake blew in my ass. A few moment later Randy unloaded his
second load into my throat. Randy pulled out of my mouth and rolled
away. Jake pulled out of my ass and grabbed my head, pulling me up onto his
soft cock. When I tasted both his and Randy nectar on his cock I got
instantly hard again. After cleaning his slimy cock Jake laid down next to
me and kissed me, licking and slurping the mixture still in my mouth. What
a fucking rush.

Both then laid back. I hoped more was to come. Having these two in me was
fantastic.

Jake rolled over and looked at me.

"Ed, I should tell you I am only a top. I don't bottom. Randy likes it
everyway he can get it and Simon does too. There other things I like too,
but I hope your okay with this."  "Jake feeling your cock in either of my
holes is just fine with me. You can use either for as many times as you
like. You won't need your whips and chains with me."

"How did you know Ed?"

"Well the walls here are really well sound proofed, but not entirely." I
laughed.

"I'm sorry Ed."

"Don't be Jake. Everyone has little perks they like to enjoy. If your two
lovers are into it, I don't care. Even my two, drain my bladder almost
everyday and although I don't like it much, I will do anything my two boys
want."

Randy sat down on my cock next, as Jake entered me again. The rest of the
night was just continuation. I know Jakes fucked my ass and face several
times and Randy was fucked by both Jake and me several times too. I was
totally wasted when I woke up in the morning. Randy was cuddled up
close. Jake was already up and gone. I sat up to head for the can. Randy
was almost instantly kneeling with my soft cock in his mouth. As with Singh
and Siam, my body took over and I emptied my very full bladder in Randy's
stomach.

"Thank you Ed. I do it for both Jake and Simon and one or the other does it
for me. You taste really good."

I just rubbed his head and stood up to look for my shorts. Randy helped me
put them on. I headed up for coffee. Singh and Siam were both glowing this
morning and everyone else looked like they had a very good night. I'm
surprised the whole yacht hadn't being rocking. Or maybe it had. I don't
think I would have noticed if a bomb had gone off.

Jake was getting ready to move off when.

"Hello the Sandpiper."

I walked out to the side rail. A man much older than myself was in a small
dingy.  "Hi."

"Sandpiper, would you by chance have a mechanic on board?"

"Yes we do. What's your problem?"

"Our engine keeps stopping. We have plenty of fuel but it won't run for
more than a few minutes then stop. Then we have to wait for 30 minutes of
so before it will start again."

"Come on board." I helped him on board and tied his dingy to the Sandpiper.

"Jake." I yelled.

"Yeah Ed."

"Jake, take us over close to that yacht and get Randy up here with his tool
box. This Gentleman has engine trouble."

"Will do."

I'm Ed Somers, welcome to the Sandpiper." I put out my hand.

"George, George Stevens." He shook my hand.

I led him into the lounge and offered him a coffee. He accepted but almost
fainted when Siam walked out nude and handed it to him. I just chuckled.

"I guess seeing my crew won't bother you much." He said after he had
recovered.

Randy came in asked him what the problem was.

"No Problem Sir, sounds like a clogged filter or line. Have it fixed in a
jiffy."

When we stopped along side the Esmeralda, I saw what George had meant. All
his crew were nude or nearly nude very young ladies. Randy laughed when he
saw them.

He went across in Georges dingy and after thirty minutes we heard the small
diesel start. After he let it run for several minutes shut it down and
emerged. As soon as he was board he said to me.

"Damn near had to fight them slashes off with a wrench. Fucking broads
wouldn't take no for an answer. All the old sod had to do was change the
filter."

I kissed Randy.

"Oh yeah, he sent this in thanks." He pulled out a bottle of very old
brandy.

"You want to really drive them nuts?"

"Yeah I would really like to put it to those bitches."

"Go get Steven and Peter and all three of you nude go out on the bow and
wave good bye."

He roared in laughter and then quickly stripped and went to grab the two
other African boys.

I headed up to the bridge to watch the fun. Jake asked me what I was
laughing about. When I told him he roared too. He had been ready to pull
away, but waited as we looked over the screen on the flying bridge. Jake
put the yacht in motion as the three young, hung African boys walked out
and leaned over the rail waving. The sailing yacht was barely thirty feet
away. The girls almost went crazy seeing the three hung boys letting it all
hang out. Jake was really laughing as he eased the Sandpiper out of the
bay.

"That was priceless Ed. For a moment I thought they were all going to jump
in and swim after us."

I told Jake to stop when we hit the equator. He looked at me and then
laughed. Only him, me and my two boys have ever crossed the equator
before. Time for King Neptune to make an appearance.

We were still about a days travel from the equator, so we had time to
prepare. Although both my boys had never been truly inducted into King
Neptune society of Shellbacks, we both decided they could be the
enforcers. Jake would be King Neptune and I would be the prosecutor.

We changed our mind about stopping exactly on the equator and instead
stopped at a small uninhabited island just south of the equator. Jake had
taken time to make a crude costume and even had small wood swords for the
two enforcers. We covered a chair in tin foil and placed it on the deck in
front of the bridge. We made a very bad tasting, but also very alcoholic
drink to cleanse there sins. We got everyone, all eleven boys who had never
crossed the equator and made them all strip. After each one was brought
forward I read a list of ridiculous charges against them. Jake would always
pronounce them guilty. We made them drink a glass of the foul tasting punch
and then Singh and Siam took great delight in throwing them
overboard. Everybody had great fun. And all were pretty drunk by the time
we were all done.

We finished the day with a party on the beach. Where more beer and liquor
flowed freely. I got up at one point and walked about a hundred yards down
the beach. I sat down and just enjoyed being so carefree. A million stars
were visible as I laid back.

I saw the shadow of someone walking down the beach toward me so I sat up to
wait.

"Hello Ed. I hope I am not bothering you."

"No Simon, never."

He sat down beside me.

"I came to thank you Ed."

I felt his hand sliding up my leg until he was gripping my cock. I knew
what he had in mind, but did not stop him. He would not be here without
asking Jake.

"Father, you have given me everything I have ever dreamed about. Now I want
to give you some of that back."

I didn't admonish him for calling me Father. That was his way of thanking
me. He then leaned over and took my cock into his mouth. MY cock was
already hard from his gentle stroking. I closed my eyes and enjoyed it as
his hot mouth, tongue and lips massaged my cock. He was a very good
cocksucker. It took him not time at all before I was filling his mouth with
my load. He slowly lifted off.

"Thank you Father."

"Your turn now son. I want you inside me."

When he entered me it was so gentle I hardly felt it enter. I knew he was
very much larger than my two loves, but it was so smooth I was instantly in
heaven. He didn't hurry, just a very slow and very sensual fuck. I wished
at that moment it would never end. I knew I would never, ever get enough of
cocks of any size filling me. The fireworks that went off inside me when he
finally came would rival any show in the world. When he pulled out we laid
back. I rolled on top of him and kissed him.

"Thank you Son, now part of you will always be with me."

"Father, I love you. I love Jake and Randy too, but not as much as I love
you."

"I love you to Son. I will always love you."

I felt the shudder of his body as he started to cry. I just held him and
let him cry out what was bothering him so much.

After a while he settled down and I rolled off him.

"Feeling better now Son?"  "Yes Father. Thank you."

He leaned over, gave me quick peck on the cheek, stood up and jogged back
down the beach. I watched his cute buns disappear into the darkness. It
looked like the beach party was almost over, so I stood up and slowly
walked into the surf. I had leisurely swim back to Sandpiper. I climbed
aboard and slipped on a pair of shorts. When I walked into the lounge,
Singh and Siam were whispering to each other. When they saw me they
stopped.

"What are you two little imps conspiring about now?"

"Nothing Ed." Singh said.

I walked over and leaned down and tickled both. They started to laugh and
giggle.

"Come on, Tell me or I might just tickle you both to death." I laughed.

"Honestly Ed, we were just talking about what we want to tonight."

"Well I already know my little love birds. I want you both inside me
again."

"Cool." Siam said.

I grabbed both in my arms and we headed to bed.

Jake told me as I entered the bridge we were just 400 miles from Fiji. One
days sailing, if we pushed it. I told him his choice.

"Well Randy figures we may have got some bad fuel at our last fueling
stop. He says he has to change the fuel filter almost everyday. He'd like
to stop for a day to rig a second filter closer to the tanks."

"Okay, what's the closest island with any kind of facilities?"

"Futuna, is the closest."  "Okay lets head there."

"About three hours at present speed."

Jake was not exactly himself. He wasn't smiling as he usually
was. Something was on his mind, but I knew when he was ready he would tell
me.

"Be up to relieve you at one Jake."

"See you then Ed and Thanks."

Now what was he thanking me for? Well whatever was on his mind, he was
obviously in no hurry to tell me.

I knew, for the most part I had a very happy crew. I hardly ever heard a
cross word or even an argument between them. That might have something to
with the fact that they all jumped into each others beds. No room for
jealousy among any of them. The only ones that really never switched around
were Jake and myself. Although I knew both my boys played around with the
rest of the crew on occasion. I would never go to bed with anyone unless
invited and Jake only had eyes for Randy and Simon.

Considering what I had read and heard about gay relationships, I never had
that problem. The two great boys I had would never leave me I was sure. I
loved them and they loved me without reservation.

Futuna, turned out to be a great place to stop. Everyone had chance to go
ashore and stretch their legs. Randy added two extra fuel filters and
rigged a filter to the inlet to the tanks to stop any garbage from entering
the tanks. The marina was filled many different sized yachts. None bigger
than Sandpiper. Futuna was also the first Island where we were boarded by
customs officials since leaving the Marshall Islands.

Their inspection was no more than a formality. They quickly stamped all our
passports and wished us a happy stay and safe voyage. Tourists,
specifically rich tourists seemed to be their main industry. Judging by
some of the prices, I knew it was the truth. I always bought something from
each island I visited. On Futuna I bought both my boys a short necklace of
very colorful shells. Jake also bought a pennant. Something to add to the
lounge.

The following day we headed for Fiji. I walked onto the bridge as Jake took
us out of Futuna. As soon as he was up to speed and on course he hit the
intercom and asked Aaron to come up and relieve him. I was astounded, Jake
never ever left the bridge in the morning. When Aaron came up he gave him
course and speed and turned to me.

"Ed, I need to talk to you. Privately."

"Okay." I said.

We went down and grabbed a couple of cups of coffee and went and sat down
on the aft deck.

We both sat down and I waited. Jake was obviously trying to figure out what
he wanted to say and how to say it.

"Simon loves you Ed."
