Be forewarned that while I proof read my work , I'm not great at the mechanics of writing! I understand that. It's my hope that despite me shortcomings you enjoy the tale. Please offer a donation to Nifty.org ! Suburban Life 5 Things sorted out at his townhome and my snowboard gear was put in a downstairs room and he showed me the master . He said for me to make myself at home . I followed to the kitchen and he was putting a dish in the oven. His laptop was open and files strew about what looked like a work area. I have a multi gym in the small bedroom feel free to make use of it, tone up those abs , he said. I heard the comment but brushed it off . I need to finish the project I'm working on it won't take very long. The townhouse was four floors narrow and deep. It was in a complex full of the same thing. I messaged my parents that I was here . The top floor was a small bedroom and the master it was big with a huge bathroom walk in super shower and all sorts of wands and tools with multiple rain heads. The place was stark , I think that's what mom would call it , maybe sterile . His closet was immaculate neat and orderly shoes in rows. There was nothing of a personal nature in the place . The carpets were white along with the walls and the bedcovers . The leather sofa was white along with the chairs. The smallest room was his gym and it was neat and utilitarian. I walked out on the deck off the kitchen and looked about . His row of townhomes backed up to another row of townhomes . I came back inside and he cut a look at my feet. I wiped them on the mat and stepped back inside. I popped open the fridge and seltzer water was the only available drink. He was sipping bourbon from a short glass . Dad liked ice with his but Rolf liked his "neat". Got a TV I asked and he walked up picked up a remote and a large flat screen slid up out of a white console. I seldom watch it but it's streaming he gave me a quick tutorial and said yell out if you need help. I cruised thru the history and found the porn . I surmised that it was the same on every tv in the place. He likes jock-boy porn , no surprise seeing as it fits the two of us . Dinner was ready and it was some chicken broccoli thing and when I asked for salt and pepper he seemed put out . We ate and he and I cleaned up and he said a few more minutes of work and I'm done. Two hours later he surfaced . I was watching a football game in the main room. He slid up next to me apologizing for having to work. He had his hands all over me and pretty quick it got all grades off steamy. Did you shower and get ready while I was working. I had on the same clothes as when I got off the plane. No I said , well you should've been ready he said . I went to the bedroom and got undressed and showered up and cleaned my self with the fancy wand , I'd been number two earlier so it went well as it were. I came out wrapped in a big white fluffy towel and he was laying in the bed with a smirk. As the passion began he seemed to be more and more demanding and controlling. This was a different Rolf than the one I'd originally met. I surrendered to him and played the obedient sex object and he blossomed with his control over me. He beat my guts unmercifully and while I orgasmed during his assault I struggled to find the lust he had. He seemed pleased with himself and drifted off to sleep. I eased up out of bed and went to the bathroom. My butt hurt and I had a split . I put a dab of Vaseline in my butt hole slipped on my sweats and went downstairs . I was in turmoil with my situation . What I suspected was going to be some fairytale event had spiraled differently. I wanted to leave here and not go out west of that I was certain. I had two days to make it happen before we headed to meet his family. I slipped into bed and didn't sleep well. When I woke up I smelled coffee. I got some sweats on and went to the kitchen and fixed a cup of extra dark in his machine. He was at his desk furiously typing. I slinked up behind him draped my arm on his shoulder and kissed his neck and he brushed me off. I went to the kitchen table and sipped my brew gazing out the big glass door . I was on cup two when he appeared and was not happy. I need to run to work for a few hours . He offered up apologies and excuses and I hugged him and said it was fine I needed to soak and rest my butt . He got this glint in his eyes like he was proud I was hurt. He went and got casually dressed and headed out. I got on my phone and found a flight and booked it . I booked a Uber requesting a vehicle that could handle snowboard gear. I got dressed and gathered my things and and met my minivan driver. She was a nice older Mom type and just cut me a look. I went to a different airport than I flew into and went thru the rigors of TSA . I messaged my brother asking him to pick me up at the airport. He messaged a thumbs up and then a WTF? Too much to text don't say a word just get me . He said I need a note to get outa class. I emailed him my flight reservation and said tell them it's an emergency. Or I can get a Uber. He messaged back that he'd be there. All that went smoothly and without a hiccup. When Gary picked me up and my gear was secure in his truck I told him about the side of Rolf that I'd met on his turf. Gary said , shit happens , now wash it off and hold your fucking head up high. I had to get Dad to call the school and well Mom knows you're home too. Dads pissed as fuck not at you at all ,but pissed that fuck treated you bad. I got a text from Rolf that was only a "?". I showed it to Gary and he laughed. What a douche he grunted . At home we carried my stuff inside and I went to my room and sulked. Gary went back to school and mid afternoon Dad walked in and sat on my bed. I'm proud of you CJ , you didn't compromise your values and stood your ground . Shows character and maturity. Make sure he knows he ain't welcome here. Then he asks me if he hurt me. Just my pride I said and I hugged Dads neck. I know it hurts he said and you will be fine. Rolf messaged me asking why I left . He called a few times then went silent. I kept quiet and distant for a few days . Didn't much like it and called Rolf. He was pre-occupied asked me to hold a moment and then in a calmer tone said , what happened . I replied I'm not a client or a possession or a slave. The guy I met at Luke's is way different that the guy that picked me up at the airport. That guys wonderful the other guys not . I was met with silence and I clicked the red button . I found my footing and went to work . I got a raised eyebrow and nothing more. I kept at it and no one asked and I didn't offer . I went to see the doc and explained my tear and he examined me and put me on some antibiotics and a safer sex medicine. He and I discussed risks and complications and how I needed to be tested every three months . I kept off of the apps and the hookup spots all winter . I focused on work and school and getting my head wrapped around me and doing me. Mom and Dad wanted me to get my insurance license and join the firm and I respectfully declined . I felt happy and cheerful and realized I didn't need to run in the shadows . We got decent bonus's and profit sharing checks every quarter. I'd kept that money in a separate savings account that my folks couldn't see. Also on the regular I'd make small withdrawals and put them in my private account. Growing up under a pair of ultra controlling parents taught me to be quietly resourceful. I wanted to move out I was ready to spread my wings , cut the cord or whatever term fit. I'd taken to hanging out at a coffee shop that was owned by a gay couple and I enjoyed the trendy relaxed feel. I was having a iced coffee and this handsome guy asked if he could share my table. It was busy and he seemed nice. I agreed and we chatted . He said , you work with your hands , what do you do if it's ok at ask. I explained my job in a short concise sentence. Then he asks if I'm with law enforcement and I laugh. When he smiled his eyes twinkled and he got these dimples in his cheeks. He properly introduced himself as Mike and he sells Real Estate. Want a card he asked me politely. Sure I said and he circled his cell number and said feel free to call or message about anything. I wasn't expecting a flirt from him, and it showed . Did I cross a line he asked easily. Oh no , it's just been a while and I'm rusty . Mike said let's go on a date no pressure or expectations just to get acquainted and see if we have common interests. He said I know a great rib shack about an hour west of here and well sloppy food is fun. We agreed to go on Friday night and I sent him a message from my phone. He stood , something about an appointment to list a home . Thanks for letting me sit with you he said sliding his hand into mine and his grip was firm . He walked away and I found myself following him with my eyes. He stopped turned and smiled . I gave him a smile and goofy wave. I went to class and had to force myself to focus. That afternoon Mike messaged me asking how my day has been. I answered honestly saying struggling to concentrate and excited for our date. He messaged that he'd been struggling himself and if I had time we could meet for a drink if I wanted. I messaged back that I was nineteen and not old enough to drink. Seriously he replied , I assumed you were mid twenties easily. Is this a problem I asked . Well we can't go clubbing he messaged . Let's keep our plans and see how that goes . From elated to disenchanted in a series of texts. Thursday I got a message that said , I'm gonna cancel our date, I think we are to different in age and I don't want to lead you on . I replied with Thanks, be well. I saw Gary that evening and he gave me the what's up look. Life and all that bullshit I said . Alan messaged me saying he would be home for spring break if I wanted catch up . Catch up or Hook Up I added with a smiley face. That's your call he said I'm game for either. We chatted about nothing then said we would catch up later. I had been basically celibate since I got back from Rolf's. The idea of hooking up with Alan in a few weeks had me all horny. We knew each other enough and well it was fun before . I was working on a psych paper at the coffee shop before class when Mike came in dressed immaculately as always . He waved and I smiled and waved back. He got his brew and stood close and I said have a seat if you want. He comfortably slid into a seat and asked the usual how's it going. We chatted a bit about my classes and his busy life. It wasn't awkward or edgy I respected his previous candor and honesty. He said wanna buy a house , I have a line on a small rancher in a good neighborhood with a great yard , it's all original from the early fifties. He said it needs everything but a roof. A friend inherited it after his aunt passed and well he's just wanting to unload it. Sure I'd like to see it ,I said ,as long as it's not a dump and I can afford it. He smiled a very professional smile and said it's far from a dump it's just very dated. We agreed to meet after my early class at the house. I went to school and after class I messaged Mike and headed to meet him. The sign at the entrance said Happy Acres, all the houses were small with random additions and well landscaped . This was a adorable neighborhood. I turned onto Blossom Lane and pulled into the drive. As Mike said it was a great yard neat and tidy with shrubs and dogwoods . The home was tidy. No sign in the yard. I got out and he beamed at me , I've got a couple weeks of find a buyer before it gets listed. The guy wants a decent person to get it rather than some investor. He said the neighbors are mostly older and friendly. He was right it was dated , but really well kept . I liked the home a lot and I said to Mike how much is it. He produced a folder with tax values and recent sales in the neighborhood. The owner said if you are interested he'd like to meet you and he's sure a number that's acceptable to both is available. Mike said , he's a college professor and he's loaded . He doesn't care about the money. He won't sell it to me because I will flip it and he's got principles What you see inside stays with the house , he took some small items and such. The place has three bedrooms a eat in kitchen gold carpet and awful wallpaper everywhere. We walked out back and there was a patio with a brick grill. We walked to the garage out in the back and like the house it was dated. Mike said everything inside goes too. Even the riding mower and yard tools , I doubt they run tho. I probably can't afford it I said as he locked the garage . He waved and spoke to a neighbor and we walked to the fence. The older guy was probably seventy plus and well put together . His name I leaned was Leonard and his wife recently passed from "the cancer". His place looked like a post card. He smiled and looked at Mike and said nice young fellow , hope you become my neighbor son. Can I bring my folks by I asked him and see what they think. I called Dad and asked if he was busy . I explained it to him and he said twenty minutes. Dad called it a time capsule of cute . Dad and Mike reviewed the folder and Dad asked me if I liked it. I said very much I'm just not sure I can afford it. Mom arrived and she cast a wary eye on it all. She asked me how I felt about it and I said I'm not sure I can afford it . But if I could I loved it . Mike told my folks that I'd have to meet the seller for the deal to move ahead . Dad asked about price and Mike said depends, if the seller likes CJ or not . Mike said he's well off and has this thing about helping and promoting young stable gay men. It was visible that those words stung my folks a bit. The next evening I met Mike and went to a beautiful Tudor home close to the university law school. We walked in to meet a hugely overweight man with soft hands and a wispy voice. He eyed me up and down and looked at Mike and said why Mikey he's just a baby boy. He's absolutely adorable and I blushed horribly. Pay Byron no mind said Mike , he's a terrible flirt. Byron flicked his hands about and scoffed and said you boys. Let's sit and discuss this . Byron sat and exhaled his bulky body filling up the chair and some. Charles isn't it he asked , yes sir I'm Charles Jr but I go by CJ . Well Charles what can you comfortably afford to pay for my aunts quaint home. I wasn't prepared to make an offer at all. It was obvious to them I wasn't . Once Bryon figured I was at a loss for words, he addressed Michael. With it needing upgrades thru out an all that, didn't you tell me two hundred twenty is what they sell for fixed up. Mike nodded and said there isn't anything at all wrong with it but being original and it has no Air Conditioning and the furnace is original but works fine. Byron looked at me then said , Michael speaks wonderfully about you Charles he may even fancy you . He says you have a path and goals and want to make something of yourself. Bryon added that he was blessed to be financially comfortable and tried to offer guidance and help to other gay folk with a hand up , not a hand out. He turned his gaze back towards Michael and said on a twenty year note what will it cost young Charles in payments on let's say ninety thousand. Michael put that together and let's discuss it again tomorrow evening. Mike and I walked out and at the door Byron said, Charles you are going to own that home. I walked up to him and hugged him tightly and he squeezed me back . We pulled apart and he fluttered his hands at his face and said I'm about to weep. To be honest I had tears in my eyes. I get home and Mom and Dad were ready to pounce in anticipation. I drug out the story on purpose and when I shared the number Dad sipped his bourbon and said will he accept a cash offer ? I said I doubt it he wants to finance it himself . Well Mom added we have money set aside for college for you and your brother and there's more than enough to pay for the home. I said I believe he wants me to earn it . I think it will offend his sensibilities to just pay for it. Dad said can we review the paperwork before you sign? I'm sure he won't mind and I think he's honorable and genuine . Dad said well he's plenty rich and he's very generous and community minded . School went incredibly slow and I worked till the meeting with Mike and Byron. I got a text that I missed asking for my email address. I sent my email and quickly received the paperwork. I forwarded it to my parents email and Dad said he'd sent it to his attorney for review. I met Mike and we rode to Byron's place. A young man casually dressed showed us into the study and Byron came in shortly wearing some sort of robe and slippers. Miguel bring tea with ice please. The young guy left thru a side door and returned with a tray with glasses and a bucket of ice and a pitcher of tea. He expertly prepared and served us and with a flick of his fingers Miguel left. I've no issues with the terms said Byron , have you had time to review the paperwork young Charles he asked . Then he said , you should have an attorney review the documents before we settle and sign. Will you be able to make the expected down payment he asked . Mike said it's five thousand dollars. I nodded and said I could easily. Then Byron cut his eyes on me and said always keep a cushion in reserves for the proverbial "rainy day". Yes sir I said I'm very prudent and a good saver. Will you be comfortable making the monthly note he asked me and I nodded a yes. Don't overreach or it will be a burden, stated Byron. For some reason I felt I should add this and I said my parents have money set aside for a regular college education and they offered me enough to pay for the home. I said that you would be insulted by a cash offer that you wanted me to earn the home. The deposit is money I've earned and saved carefully. The college money can help me do improvements if needed with your blessing. Byron smiled at me and said Charles you are very intuitive to be so young. You have five days to respond with a yes or no, but I know the answer already. I expect you will want to settle this in under fourth eight hours. Mike you have my permission to handle with my barrister the rest of this as you usually do. Young Charles my doors always open to you to visit . I shall be quite disappointed if you become a stranger. He set his glass on the side table and stood up . We were being dismissed and Miguel appeared and showed us out. We drove away and Mike said he's a weird bird but he's got a heart of gold. Don't pass up this opportunity CJ. When he parked by my car he said , if we had gone out I wouldn't have been able to make this offer to you. Byron's rules and never mix pleasure with business. I hugged him briefly and drove home. Mom and Dad were smiling and having cocktails . How's the paperwork look I asked . Straightforward and simple said Dad, Larry our lawyer said it was very generous and a simple no frills no sneaky stuff deal. Mom said I will write you a check for the deposit . I have the deposit mom and she stared at me. Dad let his fingers touch her hand to keep her from speaking. The next afternoon I signed papers and handed over a cashiers check to Byron's attorney. The lawyer was silver haired and meticulously dressed and said another of Byron's Boys. Mike touched my leg and I sat and listened. Don't squander his generosity young man. We left and I had in my pocket a set of keys. Mike asked if he could swing by later with a house warming gift. Sure I said just send a message so I will be there. He'd made the arrangements for the power and internet to be set up sorta both required me being involved . My folks got new mattresses and stuff for me like essentials toilet paper and paper towels. Gary claimed a bedroom as his place for fun . He was super excited and helped me move my clothes and gaming stuff. My boss at the Communications place just smiled approvingly. I messaged Alan that when he got to town he should come by . We exchanged messages randomly not sexual in nature just buddy stuff. I worked in all my spare time to ensure I had ample funds for my payments. It was at times overwhelming. I had begun to check out the apps again now that I had a safe place . The usual older married guys all swarmed about like moths to a porch light in the summer. Seems Lenny his preferred name had been caring for the yard for years . His wife and the previous owner were super friends. He approached me about helping and said he didn't want to overstep. He's retired from the chemical plant and just likes to keep busy. He might have been seventy but he moved and looked much younger and was exceptionally fit . He joked that the old ladies were chasing him since his misses passed away but he knew they just wanted his pension. I looked at Lenny and said well you are a handsome guy. Thanks he said . I left it go there, he's a nice man and I can learn a lot from him. I checked all the things I knew to check and everything worked in the house. In the garage I found window AC units that were labeled what window they went into. Sure enough there were plugs under the proper windows. Alan messaged me saying he was coming in a day early and hadn't told his folks . Could he hang out with me for the night . I knew he wanted sex and well I was ready to end my dry spell. I messaged Alan to shoot me a message when he was nearby so I would be home. I was getting plenty of hours at work to pay my bills and save a bit. Some Saturdays I worked if it was available otherwise I worked on the house. I'd just about stripped away all the wallpaper and even sanded and painted the kitchen cabinets to freshen up the look. All of a sudden I was freaking out straightening up and picking up and putting things I'd been working with in the small bedroom. I ran the vacuum and mopped the kitchen and bathrooms. I even lit a candle that mom had brought by. I sorta felt lame but hey I was proud. I ran to the grocery to get a couple frozen pizzas and some chips and drinks. I had some weed but no beer. I sorta felt that Lenny next door would maybe get me some but I was afraid to ask. I'd get one of the guys at work to get me a case they did it for me all the time . I fumbled and frapped and then showered and did all the things one does just in case. I smoked a bowl and ate some pizza . I messaged him about nine and he replied about ten minutes later that he was running late . How late I asked him. Probably like midnight and I have a buddy from school with me too. I wasn't thrilled, I replied one of you will have to sleep on the sofa. I have classes early and I need to work the rest of the day I messaged. About twenty minutes later he said how about we catch up this weekend . I will just crash at my place tonight . I replied , cool. I turned out the outside lights and went to lay in bed . I spent some time with my mail order butt toy relieving my anxiety and need and went to sleep. When I got up and left for work the ambulance was across the street at a old couples place and there were some deputies and neighbors. School went smoothly and work was well work. We were doing county water department trucks and it was gravy. When I got in the grass had been cut and I was sure Lenny was just bored. I walked over to his garage and he said did you see the commotion this morning. I nodded and he said it's sad. Who died I asked him . He filled me in and said it's just the cycle of life . He said his daughter wants him to move in with them but he said his eyes twinkling that ain't a happening. Thanks for cutting the grass I said . Mostly got up leaves and such he said , I bout got your mower running right so you can do it. I smiled and my mower hadn't been touched. It was ok it gave him purpose I supposed . He cuts a lot of yards on our street for the old folks as he calls them. I might have some friends come by this weekend I casually said. Oh he said a party his eyes twinkled . Naw I'm not old enough to buy beer or anything. Just a buddy maybe two but they might not show. He leaned closer and said your brother slips over with that dark haired cutie from time to time but I reckon that ain't my business. Her Daddy don't much like my brother all that much so they come over here cause it's safe. He paused it seemed he wanted to ask me more but stopped . My phone buzzed and I looked and it was Luke. I told Lenny I had to go and I'd catch him later. I read the message and he wanted to say hi , see how I was. His next message said he'd spoken to Byron the other day and he was certain that he was talking about me. My mouth went dry and I messaged back and said that I'd appreciate it if he didn't share any information concerning me with Rolf. Fear not he messaged, I've cut ties with him completely. Uh huh I replied . Seems he has a dark side I was unawares of, he typed. Would you be interested in coming by for some fun he typed. I paused a good while then typed , I think I'm gonna pass this time. I understand he messaged back. I went inside and Mom called inviting me to dinner at the club and I thought why not. I met them , Mom and Dad at the club and we had a nice dinner. I stopped at a quick stop for gas and there was a dude in a Jeep that spoke to me. He kept the conversation going till we were both done buying gas. I said I'm headed to my place if you wanna come by or something. You live at home ,he asked. I said nope , I have my own place. Where ,he asked so I explained and said follow along if you want. I pulled out and the Jeep was behind me. I pulled in the drive and he parked beside me. I got out and said , I'm CJ . Mason , he said he's slender with a pronounced Adams apple and really long fingers. We went in and he asked , you live here alone . Yea, sorry about the mess I just bought it and it's super dated so I'm scraping wallpaper and painting along with college and work. He lives at home is nineteen like me. He spends too much money on the Jeep. Works for a truck repair shop as the parts guy. We flip on TV and I tell him I only have a few beers and he asks if I smoke. Sure a little I say . He says I got some dank stuff. Well I say I don't smoke it inside the house grinning. We drink a beer each and then he goes to the Jeep and comes in with a small one hitter. We walk out back and to back of the garage . He packs a hit and hands it to me . It's that crazy weed. He does a hit and we go back in the house. He explains his girls away at college and he suspects she's cheating. Why do you suspect that I asked . She's grown super distant and won't reply to messages or answer calls . Do you have a girl he asks me and I shake my head a no. Gay he asks me and I nod a yes. No worries I sorta got that vibe at the gas station. I'm a bit on the "bi" side. But then most guys at least experiment now. Did you invite me here to hook up, he asks. No not directly I say but you are cute . He smiled and blushed turning bright red. Yea you are too sorta a twunk type. I blushed a bit myself. What do you get into he says . Well I'm Vers but all things being equal I prefer to bottom. He says yea I'm a Vers bottom too. I guess we could work it out ha ha . I cut him a look and said wanna see what we can get into? Let's smoke another hit or two , helps me relax and get into it. Yea I agree Mason it sure helps me with the jitters I get with a new person. Yea , I'm not all that keen on just hookups, Mason added. I've only done this a couple times , the first time I was on a camping trip and my buddy played with it till I shot off . I was so freaked out but early in the morning he touched me again and I just let him. We sat close , stoned and giggling and I shared about the bathroom glory hole fun. He sat wide eyed saying no fucking way. As we talked about our own personal experiences we leaned closer and he and I just sorta leaned in finally and kissed. It was amazing and he slid his long fingers onto my neck and we passionately fought our tongues back and forth and our body twisted and arms wrapped us together. We pulled gently apart and Mason softly said, you are the first guy I've ever kissed and well I really liked it . He slipped up onto my lap and leaned in again and we kissed. An alarm sound loud and screeching sounded and he grabbed his phone. He tapped away and said I need to go home. I have a curfew that my parents set and it's disrespectful if I don't follow the rules. He said would it be cool if I come back tomorrow and hang out with you. I can help you paint or whatever. We got up both sporting obvious boners and wanting to not loose the closeness of the moment. I was elated yet sad and my insides were all churning. I understood the rules and respected that he respected his parents. I think we have hit a spot to end this chapter. I appreciate all who read what I create and respect that I'm not a great technical writer. Please offer a donation to Nifty.org. Cheers CJ
