Mike was excited by the news because he hoped that he would have a chance to get to know Noah better during the party. In the meantime, the horny British teen hoped that his best friend, Luke, would see quite a lot of each other, neither of them embarrassed by the event that had taken place a few days earlier. Unfortunately, these hopes were only partially realised as Luke was roped in to help look after and entertain his young niece and nephew once his brother and sister had arrived. The older siblings had wanted to visit some of the friends that they had kept in touch with since leaving home. Daytime visits presented little problem as the parents and their children could go off together; even when they were at home, Luke was happy to play with the toddlers who enjoyed a bit of 'rough and tumble' with their uncle. On the other hand, evenings presented a problem and Luke was expected to help out his parents who were busy people as well as getting everything ready for Christmas. These activities restricted the amount of free time Luke had to spend with his best friend who occasionally agreed to come and help play with the little children. On the morning of the Johnson party, there was another unexpected visitor. Ahmad and his parents, who had also been invited to the evening party, were standing at the door burdened down by a mountain of beautifully wrapped gifts. After they had been invited in, the Anwar family accepted the offer of tea and began to unload the presents with great ceremony. Mrs Anwar, who spoke better English than her husband, said, 'These are just a few items to thank you for the support you gave to Ahmad recently. We are very grateful and have come to realise how proud we are of our son's talents and achievements but without Luke and you, his parents, things could have been so much worse. Thank you, again.' Somewhat embarrassed Luke smiled at the Anwar family as he surveyed the range of gifts. There was an orchid, which hopefully would survive; a tin of chocolates and another full of biscuits, along with bags of sweets for the small children. Finally, there was a very expensive bottle of whisky in a fancy box. Luke's mum surveyed the pile of presents and said, 'Thank you so much. It really was a pleasure having Ahmad to stay and that was reward enough. We're all so glad that everything is getting back to normal. I feel a bit awkward as we have nothing to give you in return for all these gifts.' 'You gave us back our son. That is a gift in itself,' smiled Jasmine Anwar and her husband nodded in agreement. An idea struck Molly and she looked at her husband and said, 'We always have a huge amount of food on Christmas Day and we would be delighted if you could all come and join us. There will be a house full but if you don't mind, it would be a pleasure.' Mr Anwar noticed the smiles on the faces of his wife and son and responded, 'We open shop in morning of Christmas, but we could come later if that OK.' Molly nodded and replied, 'That fits in well with us. By the time the children have had their presents and we've tidied up, dinner isn't usually until about mid-afternoon. Could you make half-three? If there's any problem you can let us know at the Johnson's party tonight?' Jasmine nodded and said, 'I don't think that will be a problem but, yes, we'll conform tonight.' Shortly after the Anwar family had left, Mike appeared and Molly greeted him with a broad smile and joked, 'Mike, I swear you can smell lunch from your house. You always appear right on cue.' Mike looked quizzical at first but, seeing the smile, grinned back, 'Well, it's always so inviting. How could I resist? Where's Luke?' 'He's in the den with the babies. He could well do with your help judging by the noise I can hear.' Mike disappeared off to the den where scenes of mayhem greeted him. Luke was on his back on the floor with two small children bouncing up and down on top of him and laughing uproariously. When he saw Mike appear the trapped uncle called out to his best friend, 'Thank god, you're here, get these kids off me I'm knackered.' Mike leaned down and, despite their protests, gently lifted the two children off his friend. 'Thanks, Mike. I have been trying to think how to tire these two out. I thought I might take them swimming this afternoon. Do you want to tag along too?' Although not a great swimmer, Mike agreed, 'OK but not too late. I need to get home so that I can be ready for Jake's party. I haven't seen them come back yet but I'm sure they're all back yet -- but they have to be -- it's their party!' 'I think Jake said they planned to get back mid-afternoon. Don't panic, I'm sure you'll get some quality time with Noah.' 'F ... ', Mike just remembered the tiny ears listening to them and adjusted his language, 'get off.' 'Isn't that what you're hoping to do?' 'Shut up, there are children present.' The conversation came to an abrupt end as they heard Molly calling them all to the kitchen for lunch. Luke's brother and sister were more than happy for the two teenagers to take the children off their hands and Rosy and Paul both jumped at the chance. However, the parents insisted that the children should have a short nap before they left and Luke retreated to his room with Mike. The bedroom Luke occupied during the visit of his siblings was tiny and cramped but, as they had discovered a few days earlier, there was still just enough room to indulge in some sexual activity. Mike wasted little time in groping the front of Luke's jeans and pulling open the zip so that he could have access to the swelling shaft. The horny teen released his best friend's cock and knelt on the floor so that he could slip the head between his lips. Luke groaned as Mike skilfully slipped the foreskin back with his lips and used his tongue to tease the piss-slit and reached behind his partner's head and urged him to swallow more. Needing little invitation, the randy youngster slurped up and down the rock-hard shaft and played with Luke's balls. Gradually the pair developed a steady back-and-forth rhythm, Mike using his tongue to tease and lick the length as it slid towards his throat and back until just the tip was between his lips. They knew they had to be quiet but Luke could not hold back the occasional groan of pleasure as Mike demonstrated his oral mastery. Looking up from his kneeling position, the teenager locked eyes with his best friend and they seemed to communicate how close Luke was to shooting his load. Anticipating his best friend's climax, the sucking teen increased his teasing and ran his tongue around the head and piss-slit which was widening in preparation for filling Luke's mouth and throat with hot cum. Luke's breathing became increasingly heavy and he let out a short gasp as his shaft throbbed and he fired several volleys of spunk onto Mike's tongue and into his throat. Finally spent, the teenager slumped down onto the bed where he was joined by his partner who was vigorously wanking. Luke reached down and replaced Mike's hand with his own and whispered, 'My turn'. It was easy to alter position so that he could take the cock into his mouth and Luke happily suckled on the already-throbbing shaft. Moments later his tongue was covered with hot teenage ball juice that had shot up to the roof of his mouth before sliding towards his throat. Luke swallowed his reward and the pair of teenagers re-adjusted their positions and rested for a short while. Fortunately, by the time his niece and nephew had woken and burst into his room, Luke and Mike were both fully dressed and ready to take them swimming. The swimming went well and Mike even offered to give Luke a break so that he could go off and do some serious swimming in the main pool. When he returned Rosie and Paul were promised another trip to the swimming pool for the following day, although, as Luke pointed out, 'uncle' Mike would not be able to come as he was going away for Christmas. The youngsters looked slightly disappointed but soon got over it as they all sipped hot drinks in the café after they had left the changing rooms. The party at the Johnsons in the evening was in full swing before Mike, Luke, Ahmad, Jake and Noah got the chance to find time for a quiet chat. The British teenagers had been introduced to Jake's uncle and aunt and had spent some time with them before the adults drifted away to talk to other guests. Now that the teenagers were free to chat amongst themselves they found a suitable spot. Ahmad, who had been briefed by Luke, drew him and Jake aside, leaving Mike alone with Noah. They overheard the American visitor talking about his plans for the future which seemed to involve going to College somewhere where he could continue his football career. Mike lapped up every word and kept discreetly checking his fellow teen out. A short distance away, the other three teenagers watched with faint amusement as their British friend tried to follow what was being said. Noah, despite now living near Boston, spoke with a distinct southern drawl. As they were leaving very early the following morning, Mike's parents came looking for him to say that they would be going home and that he should not be too much longer in following their example. Mike nodded but it was still more than an hour before the teen could drag himself away from his friends. Mike's departure coincided with that of the Anwar family who also had an early start the following day. On the driveway, Ahmad hugged his friends including Noah and Mike followed his example. As he was being hugged by Jake, the American pressed hard against his groin and Mike felt his cock responding to the stimulus. He was still semi-erect when he hugged Noah, who could not have helped feeling it but made no effort to respond. Trying to hide his embarrassment, Mike gave his best friend, Luke, a long hug and they each promised to talk on Christmas Day. As his parents were still happily chatting with neighbours, Luke saw no reason to leave and so he went back inside with the two Americans. Jake suggested they might go up to his room and play a video game. The trio went upstairs and were soon engaged in conversation. Noah spoke first, 'Your ... friend, Mike, does he always have a woody when he hugs people?' Luke decided to answer quickly, 'No, not always but if he really likes someone ...' A strange look crossed Noah's face and he said quietly, 'Is Mike gay?' Jake nodded and spoke for the first time, 'Almost certainly, but then so is Luke ... and so am I. In fact, Luke is my boyfriend.' Taken aback by the revelation, Noah took a moment before stuttering out a response, 'I don't believe it. You ... gay? No way! But if you are have you told your parents?' 'Not yet. You're the first person I've told.' Luke nodded and said, 'And I haven't come out to anyone yet either.' 'Wow, I can't get my head around this!! I ain't going to say a word, promise.' Luke and Jake both smiled their thanks and then Luke said, 'I guess this isn't the best time to suggest it but I'm taking my young niece and nephew swimming tomorrow and I wondered if you guys would like to come along too.' Noah was still so shocked by the recent conversation that he seemed unable to reach a decision but, eventually, he spoke, 'I don't see why not if Jake wants to as well, but definitely no funny business.' Jake grinned and said, 'Hardly likely with little children with us, but that apart, a swim would be great.' Having agreed on a time and place to meet, the teenagers went downstairs to find that the party was breaking up so they hugged each other and Luke walked home with his parents. The following day Luke and the two Americans took Rosie and Paul to the swimming. As they were all getting changed, Luke got his first look at Noah's naked body and Mike had been right. The blond teenager had a beautiful body, toned by his football training, with a pert arse and a bush of fair hair from which sprang a pale-skinned cock with a similarly light-coloured cut head. Luke tried hard not to stare but exchanged a look with his boyfriend and got a smile and a nod in return. However much he wanted to look more, the young children were clamouring to get into the water, but they stopped for a moment and Paul asked innocently whether they could have a photo of them altogether. Jake got his phone from his bag and took a couple of selfies, only one of which was suitable for sharing with their parents; the other which clearly showed Noah's cock was only suitable for sharing with Mike. Everyone enjoyed the swimming and the youngsters were reluctant to get out of the water but the lure of hot chocolate in the café encouraged them to do so. The group walked back to Luke's house where Noah and Jake left them and went home, but not until after they had been hugged by the children and by Luke. Before he left, the teenager arranged to meet Jake briefly before lunch the following day, Christmas Day. Christmas morning arrived early as the youngest members of the household were wide awake in the early hours demanding to know if Santa Claus had been yet. Finally, they could no longer be contained and they jumped out of bed and tore into the pile of presents that lay by their beds. While the parents supervised the children, the rest of the people in the house were kept busy making the preparations for Christmas lunch. Around mid-morning there was a lull and Luke took the opportunity to slip out of the house and walk around to see Jake and Noah. Before he reached the corner of the road, the teenager sent a message to Mike wishing him a happy Christmas and enclosing the photo of Noah's naked body. Luke had bought small presents for his American boyfriend and his cousin. For Jake, he had bought a fine leather wallet with the teenager's initials etched in gold and for Noah, he had managed to find a couple of souvenir items from the town, not exciting but hopefully a way of remembering a fun trip. Fortunately, the three teenagers were able to slip away for a few minutes and the presents were exchanged. In return for his gifts, Luke received a leather document case with his initials etched into it which matched the wallet he had given to Jake. With Noah keeping guard the pair of lovers found a secluded spot and hugged and kissed for several minutes but time was against them so they were unable to go further. Luke said that he hoped that Jake, Noah and the others would all enjoy their sightseeing trip and looked forward to seeing them early the following week. The boyfriends kissed and hugged again, this time involving Noah and then, reluctantly, went their separate ways. The rest of Christmas Day went as expected with the Anwar family joining them for the meal and staying for the party games that everyone seemed to enjoy. The youngest members of the party were beginning to grizzle, exhausted by the length of the day, too much excitement with what Santa had delivered, and too much food and treats so Rosie and Paul were ushered to bed. For once, Luke had a couple of drinks over the meal. Unlike many of his contemporaries, he did not drink much, fearing that it would affect his swimming, so when he did, he often felt sleepy as was the case this Christmas. He waited until Ahmad and his family left before announcing that he was ready for bed. Once in his bedroom, he discovered a text from Mike was awaiting him. He opened the message, 'Thanks for the present! The sight of Noah's cock had had me on the verge of cumming all day! He really has an amazing body and I could suck that dick for hours! I hope I can go swimming with him when I get back and before he goes back home. You really do know how to treat a guy!! I'm off for my third wank of the day thinking of Noah! I owe you one. Love and Happy Christmas from your best friend, Mike xx' Luke was delighted that his best friend had gained so much enjoyment from the rather fizzy picture and resolved to fulfil his request and get them together in the swimming pool. The next few days were quiet as far as Luke was concerned. His best friend, his boyfriend, and Noah were all away but were likely to return soon and his brother and sister and their families were preparing to leave to visit the other grandparents. Luke was counting the days until he could reclaim his large room and get back to normal. He managed to escape for part of each day to do some training, although most of the facilities he would normally use were closed for the Christmas holiday. Mike had returned with his family the day after Boxing Day and had immediately walked round to see his best friend, who, at that time, was still in his 'cell'. The pair had wandered up to their secret den and Mike had pulled Luke towards him and groped the front of the teenager's jeans. 'I told you I owed you one. Well, I guess with Jake away you've missed having someone sucking you off, so, poor substitute though I am, I intend to remedy that situation right now!' Without another word, Mike got onto his knees, extracted his best friend's engorged dick and took it straight between his lips. Luke groaned with pleasure as he felt the skilful tongue lash the sensitive piss-slit and head of his cock. He held the back of Mike's head and began to face-fuck him, gradually increasing the pace and pushing right into the horny teen's throat. 'Oh yeah, Mike! Take all my cock!! I'm going to fill your mouth and throat with my cum!!!' Mike needed no further encouragement and increased the suction he was applying to the rock-hard shaft and head, fully aware that his best friend would soon reach orgasm. Luke moaned louder and louder as the waves of pleasure coursed through his body and his balls churned. With a final muted cry, the horny teen shot fountains of creamy spunk down Mike's throat. Several ropes fired into the sucking teenager's gullet before, finally spent and his cock feeling very sensitive, Luke pulled out and gasped for air as he sought to regain equilibrium. Mike, who had been wanking during his friend's climax was fast approaching his own orgasm and, with a grunt, spewed his ball juice onto the ground some distance from where he was kneeling. When they'd both recovered, Luke grinned at Mike and said, 'Fuck, Mike! That was the best Christmas "thank you" I've ever had!! By the way, when is that new friend of yours coming to stay? I'm looking forward to meeting him.' 'Sam's coming to stay over New Year. I can't wait! Perhaps we could all go swimming together?' 'That sounds like a great idea. How have your parents taken the news that you've invited him.' 'They're OK about it. I think they are pleased that I've found a friend near my school. As he's a bit older, they think he'll be a good role model for me and keep me on the straight and narrow.' 'Some hopes of that if what you've told me about him is true. And "straight" is a bit of an exaggeration, I'd say!' The teenagers laughed and then made preparations to leave. The days following Christmas were ones of anticipation for both Luke and Mike. Jake and Noah were due to return with their families by midweek and Ben was expected to arrive by New Year's Eve at the latest. In the meantime, the teenagers filled their days with swimming and training for Luke and school work and meeting for sex for both of them. They were also joined from time to time by Ahmad but his dad was always pressuring him to work in the shop. Once he had returned from the sightseeing trip, Jake lost no time in getting in touch with his boyfriend and it was agreed that they should meet at the den in the woods before Luke went off to training. When they got together, they wasted little time before beginning hugging, kissing and groping each other. Noah had decided to remain at home to give the two lovers some space. `I've missed you', whispered Luke. `Not as much as I've missed you', came the American's reply. The pair of lovers continued to hug, kiss and grope for several minutes but they were prevented from going further immediately by two things. The first was that rain had started to fall and second Noah arrived to tell his cousin that he was wanted back at the house. Pulling apart the teenagers walked slowly back towards where Noah was waiting but each promised the other that they would meet up again later in the day. Across the road from Jake's house, there was activity as a small car pulled up outside and a tall, dark stranger got out and walked to the front door where he was eagerly greeted by Mike, who waved to his friends. Luke walked over and was introduced to Sam Gould who shook his hand warmly and said, `Aah, the famous Luke. Mike hardly ever stops talking about his best friend so I'm pleased to meet you at last!' As he replied, Luke looked at his best friend and said, `I'm pleased to meet you too. I know that Mike likes you very much and I hope we'll be able to get together while you are staying here.' On his return home, Luke's parents had some news, they had been invited to some old friends to celebrate the New Year. They assumed, correctly, that their son would prefer to stay at home and celebrate with his own friends. Luke's parents knew that their son could be trusted and had no qualms when he asked if he could invite his friends to spend the night at his house. They knew that it was unlikely that they would drink much alcohol, if any. Once this had been agreed, he wasted no time in contacting Jake and Noah, Mike and Sam and Ahmad to invite them to join him on the following afternoon for swimming at the leisure centre and afterwards for a party and sleepover. Almost by return, he received acceptances from all invitees. The following afternoon, the six teenagers met, as arranged, at the leisure centre. The changing room was open plan and the group stood close together as they undressed and put on their swimwear. None of the group felt at all inhibited about being naked and most of the group spent some time checking out the visitors. As they were walking through to the pool, Jake took Luke to one side and whispered, `I just realised that you and Mike are the only uncut guys among us. How does it feel to be in the minority for a change?' Luke grinned and responded, `I'm not at all worried. I honestly don't care too much what a cock looks like; it's what is done with it or to it that counts.' Most of the time the teenagers spent at the pool they engaged in light-hearted fun while being careful not to disrupt other pool users. Luke, however, took a short break to do some serious swimming and spent some time in the gym doing fitness training. By the time the group arrived back at Luke's house, his parents had already left but, as expected, his mum had left a note on the kitchen table, which was loaded with food and soft drinks. `Happy New Year to you and your guests, Luke. I hope there is enough food for you all. If you decide to have a drink at midnight to toast the New Year, there's a bottle of Prosecco in the fridge. Love Mum and Dad xx' The hungry teenagers cleared the food with the speed of a swarm of locusts and then adjourned to Luke's room. When they were all settled, Jake went over and sat on one side of his boyfriend and Noah came and sat on the other. Once they were settled the American teenager said, `While we were away, I talked to Noah and, although he isn't as into the kinds of things that we get up to as the rest of us are, he has agreed to join in some of our activities but mainly as a passive actor.' Luke grinned at the news and said, `Wow, thanks, Noah. I know that Mike will be pleased to hear the news. Go over and tell him and Sam, I'm sure they'll be more than happy to let you join them and ask Ahmad to come over to us.' With two groups of three arranged, the evening began with the two `teams' taking part in a game of strip poker. After several rounds, most of the participants had been reduced to underwear and it was not long before one of the six became the first person to lose all their clothing. Mike cried out with delight as he removed his boxer shorts and sat back down with his semi-hard dick on full display. Gradually, the others joined him in nudity and, amongst much hilarity, it was decided to have a game of `truth or dare'. The result of this game was that several truths were revealed but much more interesting were the dares that were given to those who opted for that alternative or were believed to have lied. Jake proved to be quite ruthless and he dared Mike to sit on Noah's cock and ride him to orgasm, a dare that certainly found great favour with the British teen and reluctant acceptance from the American. With everyone naked and everything set up, the action began. Mike and Sam leaned either side of Noah and took turns sucking and licking the pale shaft and head of the American teen's dick making it spring to full erection. Using saliva and some lube, Sam ensured that Noah's prick was slick and greasy and that Mike's hole was equally ready to receive the rock-hard invasion. The older youngster carefully guided his partner into position. Mike leaned back and grasped the base of Noah's cock and then moved so that it was pointing directly into his welcoming love channel. Slowly and steadily Sam worked to impale Mike on the American's prong. As he sank down until he felt his arse cheeks resting on Noah's lap, the horny British boy gave out a series of low moans and even Noah could not stop himself from quietly groaning. Once he was ready to start riding up and down the rampant cock inside him, Mike moved so that he could take Sam's circumcised head between his lips and began to suck. Gradually the speed of Mike sliding up and down the American teen's pole and the rate at which Sam's dick face-fucked the enthusiastic teenager increased. The older British man moaned and groaned and offered encouragement to his friend, `Come on, Mike!! Ride Noah's fat cock. Show him what fun he is missing!! Suck my cock harder!1 Lick my piss-slit and eat my pre-cum!!' Mike responded by increasing his efforts and it was soon clear that he was having some considerable success as Noah began to breathe unevenly. Mike tightened his arse muscles and gripped the invading cock even harder and was rewarded by feeling the cock head that was wedged deep inside him, swell, the shaft beneath throb and ropes of hot cum coated his intestines. As he lost control, the teenage American could not help but let out a loud cry of pleasure. Mike stayed in position until the dick inside him soften and slipped out of his hole with a loud plop. The British teen had started to wank himself off as he continued to receive a vigorous assault on his mouth and throat from Sam, who was about to reach his climax. Warm, salty spunk filled Mike's mouth and slid down his throat as Sam's cock spewed several volleys from its piss-slit. As he continued to milk the head for as much ball cream as possible, the horny teenager reached his climax and fired a fountain of cum into the air, some hitting Sam's stomach and the rest plopping onto Noah's legs. Sam leaned down and scooped up the white nectar from both bodies and licked his palm and fingers clean. Meanwhile, Luke and his two companions had also been enjoying themselves. The group had started with a daisy-chain sucking session but had gradually re-positioned themselves so that Ahmad was kneeling directly in front of Luke and Jake was immediately behind his boyfriend. The American used his tongue to rim the horny teen's hole before putting several fingers inside and teasing his lover's prostate causing him to moan loudly. As the boy in the middle, Luke began to move his lips down the front of Ahmad's torso. He began by teasing and nibbling the teenager's sensitive nipples before moving on down to kiss his way towards the head of the rock-hard cock that was awaiting him. Holding the shaft in one hand, Luke licked his way from Ahmad's piss-slit which was oozing pre-cum and down to his balls which he greedily took into his mouth one at a time before sliding his tongue back up to the rim around the circumcised head. Ahmad was moaning loudly and urging his friend to take his full-length into his mouth. Jake replaced his tongue and fingers with his well-lubed prick and slid inside Luke's hole and pushed on as far as he could until his thighs were slapping against his lover's arse cheeks. Luke found himself being face-fucked at one end and the piston-like invasion at the other and he was eagerly meeting the thrusts at each end by thrusts of his own. Jake reached round and began to wank the British teen's cock in time with his fucking speed. Ahmad called out, `This is sooo fucking hot!1 Suck me deep. Luke. I want to cum in your throat at the same time as Jake fills your hole.' Jake groaned his agreement to the suggestion but added, `I'm ... getting ... close!!' With everyone cooperating for the desired outcome, the inevitable became a certainty. Jake exploded deep inside Luke, who simultaneously felt his mouth and throat fill with Ahmad's cum and he unleashed his own orgasm immediately afterwards. The three teenagers collapsed in a heap and looked across to see that the other three were equally spent. When they had finally all recovered, Jake called across to Noah, `So, how was your first time?' `It was OK and I wouldn't entirely rule out doing it again, but I still prefer doing it with my girl back home.' `Fair enough', Mike responded. Luke checked the time and saw that it was getting close to midnight and said, `Shall we go down to the TV room and watch the London celebrations and, maybe, drink some of the Prosecco?' There was general agreement to the suggestion and even Ahmad said he did not object to having a small sip especially as he was clearly not a very good Muslim so why not? Luke found the bottle and some glasses and filled them The six youngsters sat around holding a small amount of the fizz waiting for the chimes of Big Ben. As the bell struck the hour they all chinked glasses and wished each other a Happy New Year and each made a wish for what they most wanted in the coming year. A moment later, after they had finished watching the fireworks, Luke's phone rang and he put it on speaker-phone so that everyone could hear his mum and dad wish them every success in the New Year. All six boys reciprocated the greeting and thanked the Townsends for their help, support and food over the past year. Once the call was over, the six returned to Luke's room where they continued to party for the next hour until, eventually, one-by-one they fell asleep. To be continued?
