Date: Thu, 2 Feb 2017 03:04:29 +0000 From: David Lee Subject: Cheddars, Chapter 11 Cheddar's, Chapter 11 Saturday morning was a busy time for Adam. He knew he wouldn't be able to be with Parker until later in the day, but that was okay. He needed to be totally focused on swimming. Getting ready in the morning along with three other guys sharing one bathroom proved to be a challenge in itself. As he was awaiting his turn to get close enough to the sink to brush his teeth, he thought about how much more convenient it would have been had he shared Parker's accommodations, but he knew that would have gotten him into trouble since he was on a school-sponsored trip. Trips had rules about who slept where, despite the fact that guys like him who were gay, weren't going to get some girl pregnant. He was a bit surprised to see Jim and Paul walking around unashamedly sporting morning wood. Cory and he were more modest, though their briefs were bulging and jiggling enough to make it look like they were smuggling puppies. Once they were all dressed, they went down to the buffet together for breakfast. They chose to eat a high-protein meal with enough carbs to keep their bodies fueled, but light enough not to upset their stomachs. Knowing how Coach Benson operated, they knew there would be food available for them after their individual events. ---------- Parker ordered room service. He would, no doubt be recognized by some as Adam's boyfriend when he showed up to support the team, but he was keeping a low profile in the meantime. He couldn't be with his lover at present, but they exchanged texts whenever possible. He called a cab to take him to the university pool so he could avoid having to find a parking place where there would be lots of other people vying for the same spot. While waiting for his ride, Parker visited a minute with a couple and their middle-school son, whom he recognized as Cory's parents and his younger brother, Austin. On learning his plans, they asked if they could share the taxi. They hadn't thought of the idea, and felt it was a great solution. Parker agreed that they could join him, and Cory's parents insisted on paying the fare. At the pool, Parker spotted Darrin Vogel, Rob Utley, and a couple of other spectators who had made the trip to support the team. They beckoned him to join them. It would be fun to be with a few people he'd met, rather than to sit in the midst of strangers. Pretty soon, Austin shyly asked if he could join them too. Parker moved over so Austin could sit between Darrin and him. The boy was delighted to be welcomed by the older guys. City High's cheering section grew to be fairly large, and quite vocal, and the team fed off of their energy. All the fans wore something bright red and white to represent the school's colors. Despite the general cacophony of sounds echoing off the hard surfaces of the facility, Adam could pick out Parker's voice. His cheering provided the extra spark Adam needed to make the final lunge on the last lap of the breaststroke event. As a result, he touched the pad a full second before his closest competitor, and broke the old state record by a tenth of a second. His achievement probably wouldn't go unchallenged for long, because it wasn't a lot better than the old record, but it was the best for the current year. He was ecstatic! Coach Benson hugged him when he got out of the water. Teammates standing nearby patted his butt, or gave him a shoulder hug. In that moment he felt that all of his hard work had paid off. ---------- When his events for the day were done, Adam asked his coach if he might take a cab back to the hotel to rest. Of course, that didn't fit with district regulations, but Benson did secure one bus to transport anyone back who wanted to rest up. Several guys opted to take it, and Parker slipped on it too without being spotted by the driver as a non-team member. Even though he had no money worries, he loved being able to get a free ride. Jim and Paul had opted to go back to the hotel too. Adam was beginning to feel that maybe they wanted to snuggle like he and Parker planned to do. "Um, are you going to be in the room?" Jim asked. "Cory's going to hang with his parents and little brother; we could all catch a nap." "Nah, I'll be elsewhere; you two can have the place to yourselves and get all the rest you want." "Thanks." Adam noticed that Paul blushed profusely during their conversation. Hmm... Perhaps there WAS something going on. ---------- Parker and Adam went on up to the 8th floor together in the elevator. This time, Adam didn't try to hide where he was going. Tomorrow was the last day he'd be competing in the swimming program, so if the coach chewed him out for being AWOL, he'd take it, and keep his mouth shut. He asked Parker to wash his back in a shared shower. He wanted to have one more opportunity to rid his body of any chlorine odor. When they used their favorite gel, its mild scent was likely to mask any remaining chemical smell. "I want to try something new that I saw on the Internet," Parker said, after they'd dried each other. "It was a totally sensuous touching experience involving several guys, each paired up with a partner. It was called a bonding session, but I can't imagine that they didn't have sex at the end of it." "It sounds hot! Is it difficult to do?" "Nah; just follow along. I'll try to do what the leader did." The experience began with the guys standing a bit apart, facing each other and clasping each other's hands high above their heads, kind of like they were high-fiving each other. They looked deeply into one another's eyes, as if staring into their souls. Then they closed their eyes, leaned forward, and touched foreheads, sharing the same air. With their foreheads still in contact, they unclasped their hands, and moved them slowly down their partner's back to caress his buns. Their semi-erect cocks touched in the process, but they didn't grind them together as they might have been tempted to do if it were a purely sexual experience. Next, Parker arranged them in a sitting position on the carpet, crotch to crotch, with his legs outside of Adam's. They gripped arms to help them maintain their balance. This position was very sensuous. Their silky-smooth ball sacs touched as their erections lay side by side, setting off a new round of intimate sensations. They sat that way for a few minutes with the tips of their tongues also making contact. The last step, that had been shown on the video, involved placing one hand on their partner's head, and the other on his perineum. Adam gave a start, almost as if he'd been jolted by electricity. His cock gave a spasm, and he nearly shot his load. Parker backed off to prevent its happening. "I can't believe I nearly came without having my dick stroked! It was awesome. Will you finish me off, please?" "Have patience, my sweet one. Let's take the plunge together." They climbed onto the big bed in their favorite position so they could suck each other while stroking their perineum at the same time. Parker reminded Adam that they should do it slowly and sensuously to make it last as long as possible. Adam did his best to comply. As the sensations grew in intensity, their animal-like sounds increased at the same pace. Adam's whole body began to quiver, as he couldn't hold back any longer. His first volley coated Parker's tonsils, setting off his orgasm too. Both of them whimpered and spewed for several seconds. Parker swung his body around, and they kissed deeply. Totally spent, the guys fell asleep in the afterglow. They awoke about an hour later. ---------- "Sex between us has to cool down sooner or later," Adam observed. "Each time seems to be more incredible than the last, but there has to be a limit." "We're still reaching our sexual peak, according to statistics," Parker smiled. "And from what I've read recently, a man's sexual prowess doesn't suddenly drop off after 19. Many males are still horny and active into their old age. But, I suspect the novelty wears off to some extent. I hope it's replaced by the joy and comfort of being soulmates." "I agree, and I think it will be like that. Yes, I enjoy exploring new thrills like we did today, but most of all, you're my rock, my shelter, my companion..." "That's exactly what I'm talking about. We have each other. I'm not sure how or why we formed such a deep bond so quickly, but I love it. It makes me wonder how I made it through life before we met. It's like I was walking through a land of shadows. Now everything is alive and in color!" ---------- Later, having rinsed off once more, and dressed, Adam and Parker went down to the lobby to meet the rest of the team. It was nearly time for dinner, and Adam decided he would ask permission of Coach Benson to allow him to have dinner in the hotel's specialty restaurant with Parker, instead of going to the buffet. "I suppose I could make an exception, but eating as a group tends to create team spirit." "Cory's eating with his family," Adam observed, "but I suppose it's different with parents. I won't rock the boat." "That's considerate of you," Coach Benson remarked. "I'll tell you what, since we've already paid for a meal that Cory won't be eating, Parker could make use of it. I know the team-members would be pleased to have their most faithful fan present." "What do you think, Parker?" Adam asked. "Sure, I'd be happy to join you guys as long as it's okay." Once again, Parker was unexpectedly receiving something for nothing. He didn't mind. The best part was that he felt like part of the group. ---------- Cory's parents were allowed to have him stay with them and his brother overnight. That made Adam hopeful that his coach might make an exception and allow him to spend the night with Parker. He felt it couldn't hurt to ask, if he did it when other kids weren't around to be aware of it. "Coach Benson, I'd like to ask a favor, but I won't make an issue of it, no matter what your answer is." "Hmm... Could it be about the room assignments?" "Well, yes. I was hoping I could stay with Parker tonight if it was okay. There'd be less congestion when getting ready in the morning." "With Cory somewhere else, the congestion will be cut down already, and you know that's a family thing." "It would be kind of a family thing with us too. We live together, and his dad and grandparents have sorta adopted me since my parents have passed away." "Okay, let me put it this way. I can't officially give my blessing, but I won't be checking rooms as carefully as I did last night. If you should happen to sleep elsewhere, just make sure you're on the bus when we leave for the pool in the morning!" "Thank you, sir! I should probably tell Jim and Paul to keep it quiet." "That might not hurt." Adam sought out the pair to let them know. They seemed pleased, and promised not to tell anyone. ---------- Hard as it may be to believe, Adam and Parker didn't spend the night having hot, unbridled sex. They did get naked and cuddle in the king sized bed, but it was a time of togetherness, much like they might have had at home. Just before it was lights-out time for the swimmers, Parker gave Adam a massage which relaxed every muscle in his body, including the one between his legs, due to the happy ending. He started to drift off the minute Parker was finished. When he did, Parker snuggled up beside him and fell asleep too. ---------- The relay team of Jim, Paul, Cory, and Adam shaved nearly two seconds off of their time in the district meet, and were the state champions in that event. Their achievement made their coach feel that he had done the right thing by bending the rules slightly for dinner and sleeping arrangements the night before. Sometimes it didn't hurt to allow a bit of freedom, as long as no one got into trouble. All in all, City High did quite well at state, and ended with the highest number of points of the schools in their class. Since several of the participants would return the following year, that boded well for the team's future. ---------- With swimming season over, Adam could kick back a little. His last term load was already lighter than usual, and he had been accepted to enroll in the university as soon as he graduated. In fact, his AP classes would allow him college-level credit if he tested well. At this point, it wasn't necessary to pass them for financial reasons, but it would still be nice to have a leg-up on college credits. Adam would like to be able to graduate as soon after his lover as possible. ---------- Adam completed his instruction at Grace Episcopal in time to become a member before Easter. It made him feel more settled when all was taken care of. He didn't need to be baptized again, because his baptism in his former church was recognized. ---------- Spring break found the guys heading to Florida. They had been texting with Parker's father for several weeks about plans for the wedding on a beach near Titusville where his former in-laws were spending the coldest months of the winter. It might have seemed strange for Jonathan to choose to be married in their locale, but Ellie had invited their former son-in-law and his future husband to stay with them before the ceremony, and said she would help with the arrangements if they liked. Truth be told, she had more in common with him than she did with her own son, Ralph. Part of her motivation was also to get to see Parker and his boyfriend. She assumed they might like to spend their spring break in warm weather, and she was happy to host them. It was a beautiful day when the guys' plane landed in Orlando. As they made their way out of the secure area, they saw not only Edgar and Ellie, but also Cousin Danny. He grinned from ear to ear, while running to meet them. "Man, it's good to see you. How did you get to come?" Parker asked. "I'll fill you in later, but it's all good." Parker's grandparents greeted Adam with the same kind of affection they showed to their own grandson. He felt like he was with family again! All the way to the condo, Danny chattered about the activities they could do while they were on their break. His vacation dovetailed nicely with the time they had off. Being entertained by the young teen, the guys felt like the trip took no time at all. ---------- "You guys won't get stuck with me this time if you don't want to be. I could share your room while Jon and Bart are here, but I can use the couch in the family room if you want privacy." "I think they're arriving on Monday afternoon, and leaving on Wednesday afternoon for their honeymoon, if I'm not mistaken," Adam said. "I'm sure we can survive without privacy that long." "Grandma says she has a rollaway, so I won't be crowding you out of your bed," Danny grinned. "Then it's all settled," Parker tousled the boy's hair. "So, fill us in on how you got to come when Bart and my dad are tying the knot." "If Dad knew I'd be witnessing a gay wedding, he'd have a cow!" Dan giggled. "Grandma didn't tell him that detail. He doesn't even know you're here either. "So, the main reason I got to come is because they're going off to Rome on a kind of second honeymoon; eew! Obviously, they didn't want me along, and I'm not disappointed about that, as you can see! They were looking to palm me off on someone from our church, but those plans fell through. Dad had to humble himself to ask Grandma if I could come here, at least that's how he felt about it. It was so cool to overhear his side of the conversation. Grandma let him twist in the wind awhile, even though she wanted me to come. "The other reason was that she and Grandpa paid for my ticket. It's not like my family can't afford it, but they love to get something for free." "I can empathize with that, though it's about the only thing your father and I might agree on," Parker nodded. "Grandma and Grandpa said they'd take us to Disney World on one of the days, but they thought the three of us could go to the beach without them. Grandpa has to be really careful in the sun since he had that melanoma removed from his ear last summer. Did you know they grafted in pigskin? He says he feels like a cannibal every time he eats bacon." "I didn't hear that quip, but I believe it. Grandpa never loses his sense of humor, no matter what." "Well if we're going to the beach unsupervised, I thought we could go to Playa Linda." Dan continued. "Grandmas says it's nice, and I read on the `net that people go nude on the north end of it, and I want to try it." "Does that mean you won't be embarrassed to be seen naked?" Adam cocked an eyebrow. "Yup, I've grown pubes!" Danny exclaimed, pulling down the front of his shorts to show them off. "The only thing is they're kinda blond and don't show up as much as I'd like." "You could dye them." Parker observed. "Really! How would I do that?" "You can buy the `Just for Men' mustache and beard kit and do it in about five minutes." "I'd be too embarrassed to buy it since I don't have a beard or mustache. Everyone would know what I was doing with it!" "How would they? You could be buying it for someone else. Man, how are you gonna get up the nerve to buy condoms when you need them?" "I was hoping someone older, like you, would buy them for me," Danny blushed. "Like your dad?" Parker tried not to look amused. "Oh God no! He'd probably beat me if he thought I had any reason to have them." "Does he whip you?" Parker asked with concern. "No, but listening to him rant on about sin is about like getting smacked around!" "Ask any kid who's been abused, and he'll beg to differ." "Yeah, I guess I don't have it too bad. I still can't wait to grow up and get away. Maybe Gram will let me stay with them. But that wouldn't work when they come to Florida in the winter. I guess there's no hope." "There's hope for darker pubes, though. I'll ask for the keys to one of the cars and we can find a drugstore." ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Author's notes: I heard from Walt S before I decided to send this chapter in.
