Tales from Kingswood

--------------------


Chapter 21

----------


Thursday 19 December 2019

"I don't wanna and you can't make me!" Danny said petulantly as he lay on
the floor of the gym looking at his friend/trainer/tormentor.

"Why do we have this argument every time you get close to your limit?"
Jesse asked, shaking his head as he stared down at the boy.

"Because you can't tell the difference between `close to my limit' and `too
worn out to move' ya big idiot!" Danny said back cheekily.

Jesse raised an eyebrow at the insult. Most people in the school, in fact
most people he met in general, would never dare speak to him like that. His
impressive size and imposing presence always intimidated them into at least
the faηade of politeness. Danny, however, seemed to have no such
issues. It was probably one of the reasons he liked spending time with the
Year 7 boy, despite the massive age difference.

Several weeks earlier, Jesse had played around with ways of disciplining
Danny into compliance, subjecting him to naked or near-naked walks back to
the Home Building after their workout sessions, but aside from the wintery
conditions making that unsafe, it had failed to motivate Danny to
comply. As much as he denied it and resisted it, Danny loved the
embarrassment of the walk of shame and as a result, he actually slacked off
more in his workouts just to earn the humiliation he deeply craved.

About 3 weeks ago, Danny had been released from the chastity he had been
locked in since arriving at the school and it had made a significant
difference in his behaviour. It was nothing detrimental, it was simply the
same thing Jesse had experienced himself and seen in so many of his
classmates. The sudden freedom to masturbate would usually leave the newly
unlocked boys sexually super-charged and that was exactly what he had seen
in Danny.

He had caught the boy touching himself on numerous occasions, seen plenty
of stray erections and heard him noisily masturbating in the next shower
after their workouts were complete. Most noticeably, however, was the
extremely unsubtle way Danny had started watching Jesse. The muscular young
man had always caught the boy's eye, right from the first day they met when
Danny had been mesmerised by the impressive physique on show, but since his
release, it was a much more overt interest.

Jesse had neither the desire nor the intention to be involved with Danny
physically, that just wasn't the sort of relationship they had. He
suspected Danny actually felt the same, but a hyper-horny boy and a very
good-looking young man in close proximity was always going to lead to a
little tension. Danny would always linger while Jesse was undressing for
his shower, or deliberately go slow afterwards to try and watch him drying
off. It was as sweet as it was amusing, and only made funnier by the way
Jesse deliberately kept as much of himself concealed as possible to tease
the boy further. It had given him a new idea for motivation though.

"Come on Dan," Jesse encouraged.

Danny looked at the older boy suddenly. Since coming to the school, he had
been `Danny' to everyone. The way the more mature student referred to him
as `Dan' made him feel a lot more grown-up and while he had never vocalised
how much he liked it, Jesse seemed to know the effect it had.

"Twelve more push-ups!" Jesse encouraged him.

"Hey Jess," Danny said with a slight smirk. "What starts with fuck and ends
with no? That's right, my answer!"

"Dan," Jesse repeated, squatting down. "If you can do twelve more, I'll
take off my top and leave it off til we're finished!"

"S... seriously?" Danny stuttered, eyes wide. As he got a grin in response,
he suddenly rolled onto his stomach, placed his hands on the ground and
started doing push-ups. The first three were quick and easy, but fatigue
caught up with him quickly and he strained to get to seven. Laying flat on
the floor he asked, "If I make it to eight, will you just show me some
nipple?"

Jesse smirked but said, "Come on, you're so close. You can do it!"

"Ugh, fine!" Danny moaned, pushing up again. He was tired, he felt the
familiar ache of muscles pushed to their limit but he knew Jesse was
right. He kept an image of a shirtless Jesse in his head and had to stop
himself giggling as he felt his erection poking the ground as he lowered
himself down for number eleven, then strained up for number twelve before
collapsing. "Roll me over so I can see you!" Danny demanded, voice muffled
by the mat.

"Do it yourself, ya lazy git!" Jesse said.

Danny let out another moan, but as he heard the clothing hit the ground he
felt a sudden surge of energy and rolled over, staring up the hulking
muscular torso looming over him. "Totally worth it!" he said happily.

Jesse grinned, happy to have found a good way to motivate the boy. "Hey
Dan," he said, watching Danny's eyes dart from his chest up to his
face. "Think you've got some sit-ups left in you too?" He looked down.

Danny's eyes followed Jesse's, down to the waistband of his shorts, which
he was pulling down slightly at one side. Danny looked back up to the
grinning face and asked eagerly, "How many d'you want?"  ***** Although not
the last day of term, which was tomorrow, it was the last day of classes
for the boys. That evening was the school's Christmas Party, which meant
the party tent was back out on the front lawn in preparation for the big
event. Unfortunately, the weather was less than ideal and as a result,
after the boys of 1.01 had finished their lunch, they retreated to the dorm
to kill some time before fifth period, rather than hanging out in the quad
like they usually did.

Over on the sofas, most of the boys were caught up in a heated debate over
whether or not it was expected for everyone to have a date to the
party. Chris and Kyle were, obviously, going as each other's dates while
Rob and Josh had declared they were going together, but only as a
friend-date. When Chris suggested it might be more than that, it had been
met with dry-heaving and repeated `ewws' from both boys.

That was what had triggered the whole argument and had been Nicky's cue to
walk away, heading over to lay on his bunk. Will, his boyfriend and mentor,
was still insistent on keeping their relationship a secret. Aside from
wanting to just tell people how in love he was, Nicky had been hoping the
Christmas party might be the push Will needed. He had spent every day over
the last two weeks secretly hoping the older boy would ask him to be his
official date to the party, but alas, he was still waiting.

Just as he was playing the whole situation over in his head for the
fiftieth time that day, David came over and sat down on the end of his
bunk. "Hey, you okay?" Nicky asked, tilting his head at the sudden arrival.

David was usually fairly timid in most situations, so it could be hard to
tell when he was being quiet and when he was just being his usual
self. However, the angst was written all over his face as he sat there. "I
don't know," he answered honestly.

Nicky frowned as he sat up and scooched down the bed to sit closer to the
smaller boy. "What's on your mind?" he asked, nudging him gently.

David looked like he was trying to find the right words, attempting to
voice his thoughts a few times but ultimately remained silent for a few
seconds before he sighed and said, "I'm going home tomorrow."

Nicky thought about it for a moment but couldn't quite understand the issue
yet, so he gently placed a hand on David's arm and asked, "And is
that... bad?"

David shrugged a little. "I mean... no, not really. I... I get to see my
Dads and have Christmas with them and see the rest of my family, which
is... all really great."

"But?" Nicky prompted David when he went quiet.

David looked increasingly shaky as he shrugged again and said, "I don't
know. I... I think about... going out there and... and it makes me feel
funny."

"Out... where?" Nicky asked, still a little confused.

"The... the real world. You know, outside of this place!" David explained.

"Oh!" Nicky said with surprise. He hadn't really thought about
it. Kingswood really was its own little world, keeping the boys locked away
inside the grounds. It's not like they were prisoners. There were days out,
the older boys could visit nearby towns in their free time and there were
six visits home each year, but it was still very much an enclosed
community. "And thinking about leaving makes you... feel funny?" he
enquired.

David nodded. "Yeah, kinda... scared and... and a bit nervous and... I
guess, a bit... unsafe?" As he saw Nicky looking at him with concern, he
quickly added. "Oh, not like... unsafe as in anyone's hurting me or
anything if that's what you're thinking!"

"Okay, good," Nicky said with a sincere smile. "But that all
sounds... pretty tough. Is this a new feeling?"

"Yes and no," David explained. "I guess I felt it a bit before half-term,
but not as bad as this and once I got home I was fine, but... I dunno, this
feels bigger!"

"Well, I mean, it's a longer break. Half-term was, like, 8 days and this
one is..." Nicky paused counting up mentally.

"Sixteen nights!" David said.

Nicky nodded. "That's pretty long," he said, thinking it over. "Have you
told your Dads you feel like this?"

David shook his head. "The only person I told was James and he just said I
was being illogical!" he explained, looking embarrassed. "I wasn't gonna
tell anyone else, but then I remembered how talking to you helped after
that prank and thought... talking to you might help again!"

"Aww, I'm glad I helped then. Is it... helping now?" Nicky asked hopefully.

David nodded. "A bit!"

"So... do you think telling your Dads might help too?" Nicky asked,
smiling.

David smiled back and nodded. "Thanks Nicky, you're the best!"

"I know, just don't tell the others," Nicky joked. "Oh and by the way,
don't listen to James. Feelings don't always need to be logical." He let
out a gentle sigh, realising he maybe needed to follow his own feelings.

"Come on, we need to get going!" Rob called out from sofas. "Class starts
in, like, five minutes!" As he led the group towards the door, he paused at
the end of Nicky's bunk to look at the two boys. "Everything okay?" he
asked, seeing them both looking quite serious.

"Yeah, just chatting," Nicky said with a polite smile and hint of a shrug
as he stood up.

"I thought maybe you were trying to convince David to change his mind about
the network stuff!" Rob said to Nicky, then gave David some serious
side-eye.

David let out a low rumble of disapproval. A couple of weeks ago, while
searching for clues about who had pranked them after half-term, David had
found his way to the motherlode of confidential school data. Despite the
excitement and eagerness of the rest of the dorm to explore it, David had
forbidden it.

At first, hacking into the system had just been a fun challenge, but once
he was in the reality of the situation (or rather, the fear of getting
caught) set in and he decided it had gone far enough. Rob had not been
pleased about the potentially lost clues to their pranker's identity but it
was all of the other data that the rest of the dorm were annoyed about
missing out on. The thought of seeing Dr Arkwright's medical exams had half
the dorm thinking with their dicks!

"Nah," Nicky said, shaking his head. "He made the right call. Getting
caught with something like that just isn't worth the risk!"

"Thanks," David said quietly, glad that at least someone was on his side
about it.

*****

Fifth and sixth period on Thursdays was a double period of Citizenship for
the 1.01 boys, shared with the boys of dorm 1.03. It was always an
enjoyable class because so much of it involved group activities and
discussions, separating it from some of the more mundane classes. Danny
enjoyed it especially because he usually sat in a group that involved
Adrian Rivera.

While he had made the conscious decision not to date Adrian (or anyone),
his growing connection to the other boy was undeniable. While he had
initially thought Chris' attempt at matchmaking had simply been a case of
grabbing the first guy who offered, it became more apparent by the day just
how compatible the two boys were. What Danny loved about it was how easy
the whole thing was, how relaxed their relationship was.

When he was first getting to know Chris, he had developed feelings that he
was not prepared for and having the whole school constantly assuming they
were boyfriends had only made it all the more confusing. Although Danny had
reached his own decision to just stay friends with Chris, the sudden
relationship with Kyle had eliminated the possibility of anything more
anyway. That still didn't stop other people making assumptions.

Then there was Mikey. It was tough because Danny was undoubtedly Mikey's
best friend, but Mikey wasn't Danny's, causing a strange misbalance of
power between the two boys. Throw in Mikey's unusual behaviour, volatile
temper and tendency to over-react to the slightest thing and it added up to
a very challenging relationship.

With Adrian there were none of the difficulties he faced with the
others. He had gone into it making it clear to everyone it wasn't a romance
and Adrian had none of the behavioural issues Mikey did. Both Danny and
Adrian had their own best friends - Chris for Danny and Tommy Lewis for
Adrian. All-in-all, it added up to a very simple, relaxed and equal
relationship that felt almost like a refuge from everything else going on.

Danny's group for the class activities, consisting of himself, Adrian,
Chris and Tommy, had finished the group activity looking at what rights
children should be entitled to. As many of the other groups were still
working, they were just chatting quietly, with Chris lecturing Tommy after
the 1.03 boy made the mistake of saying any music from before 2018 was
`retro and crap'.

"So whadda you think?" Danny asked quietly, having explained the debate
that had been going on in their dorm after lunch about taking a date to
that evening's party.

Adrian shrugged. "I don't think it matters what I think," he said
casually. "Some people want dates, some don't, just let people have what
they want if it makes them happy!"

"Yeah, I guess," Danny replied, disappointed at the thoroughly neutral
answer.

"I'm guessing you fall on the `no dates' side of it!" Adrian said with a
slight smirk. The first day they had started hanging out, Danny had been
oblivious to Adrian's attraction to him and shot him down spectacularly
harshly without even realising.

"Why? You asking?" Danny teased.

"If I didn't know you were all `grrr, arrrgh, dating bad, Danny no date,
grrr' then I might," Adrian teased back, mocking Danny like some kind of
anti-dating monster. "But I know where we stand. Besides, I already have a
date!"

"You do?" Danny asked in surprise. He felt a sudden gnawing sensation in
his stomach but did his best to ignore it.

"Yeah," Adrian said with a nod, then held his right hand out in front of
himself, wiggled his fingers and said, "Here, meet my date!" Both boys
burst into fits of giggles.

"Hey, me too!" Danny said, raising his hand too. More giggles.

Although the two boys had never fooled around together, they found talking
to each other easy and subjects that might have been embarrassing normally,
like wanking, seemed to just flow naturally between them.

"Guessing you've been enjoying the new freedom!" Adrian said with a wry
grin.

"Oh my God!" Danny said quietly, looking round to make sure nobody was
listening in. "I can't stop. It's, like, fifty times a day!"

"Oh yeah," Adrian said, nodding knowingly. He had been unlocked right after
half-term, four weeks before Danny claimed his freedom. "I remember that
stage. But it's totally under control now!" he insisted, nodding solemnly
for a moment before the grin returned and he added, "Now it's just, like,
thirty times a day!"

Danny laughed, then looked round again and said quietly, "Hey, maybe
tonight we could... double-date!" He raised his hand again.

Adrian's face suddenly dropped and he seemed to shrink into himself a
little. "Oh, erm... we... we probably shouldn't!" he stuttered.

Before Danny could question the response, Mr Francis called the class to
order to discuss their activities they had been working on. By the time the
class finished, Danny hadn't been able to find a moment to try and question
Adrian and as the bell for afternoon break rang, he remained just as
clueless.

"Hey, you okay?" Nicky asked, approaching Danny who was watching Adrian
hurry out of the room.

"I... don't know!" Danny answered honestly as they headed for the door.

"How can you not know?" Nicky asked, confused.

"I think I said something wrong, but I don't get what!" Danny whined as
they walked along the corridor.

"To who? Adrian?" Nicky asked, knowing they had been sat together for the
class.

"Yeah. I just... don't get it," he said, shaking his head as they reached
the quad. "I was just saying..."

"Oh, hold that thought. Gotta go!" Nicky suddenly said as he spotted
Will. "Talk more later, `kay?"

"Sure," Danny said with a shrug.

"Hey, Will!" Nicky called out as he ran towards his
boyfriend/mentor. Thankfully, Will was stood with Jonathan, his own mentor,
one of the few other students who knew about their relationship. It meant
that he would be able to say what he was intending to say without dragging
him off somewhere.

"Hey, you," Will said happily as the younger boy approached.

"Nicky," Jonathan said with a polite nod.

"Tonight!" Nicky said bluntly. "I want to be your date for the party. Like,
publicly-known, no-secrets, out-in-the-open type of date!"

"I... oh, erm..." Will stuttered. "I thought... we were... ya know..."

"Yeah, we were," Nicky said, a little abruptly. "One hundred and fourteen
days ago. But now, I want to be able to tell people!" He glanced to
Jonathan and said, "And more than just him! I want to have a date and I
want people to know it!"

"Nick, come on," Will urged, awkwardly. "You know I'm not ready for..."

"Well I am!" Nicky insisted.

Will scowled at the sharp tone. "Okay, and what if I say no?"

Nicky frowned for a moment, annoyed at the continuing reluctance. "Are you
saying no?" he asked.

Will stared back silently for a few moments, occasionally glancing at
Jonathan pleadingly.

The looks exchanged the two confused Nicky, but he was so annoyed by the
whole situation he just didn't care anymore. "You know what, you're either
in or you're out. So if you turn up tonight to take me to the dance, great,
I'll know you're in, but... if not..."

"If not?" Will asked, caught somewhere between angry and distraught.

"Then I'll know you're out... for good!" Nicky snapped, then turned and
walked away.

*****

The party tent was just as elaborately decorated as it had been for the
Halloween party. Six massive Christmas trees were dotted around, all
perfectly and identically decorated. The ceiling was filled with
decorations and twinkling fairly lights while every other surface
throughout the tent that could potentially have tinsel stuck to it was
fully tinselled up.

"Fuck me, it's like Santa had explosive Christmas diarrhoea or something!"
Mikey exclaimed as he walked in with some of the others.

"Yeah, that's the Christmas spirit!" Rob said with a snigger.

A few of the others laughed but Josh remained silent.

Rob frowned. His funny lines always got either a laugh or an insult from
his best friend, but never silence. Josh had been quiet all evening and it
was beginning to worry him. "Hey, at least it's not spiders this time!" Rob
said, giving Josh a nudge. At the last party, the ceiling had been
decorated with spider-filled cobwebs, Josh's biggest phobia.

Josh visibly flinched at the comment, glancing up at the ceiling as he
nodded, remaining silent.

"Okay, what's up?" Rob asked, leading Josh away from the others.

"Nothing!" Josh insisted quietly.

"Bollocks. You've been like this all night. There's been, like, a dozen
opportunities to take the piss out of me or one of the others and you
haven't even tried. I know when something's wrong!" Rob insisted.

"Do you?" Josh asked coldly, staring back at Rob.

"You know I do," Rob said, unsure why he had got that reaction.

Josh scowled and said, "Maybe not as well as you think you do!"

"And what's that supposed to mean?" Rob asked, even more confused.

"Forget it. Enjoy the party!" Josh said, shaking his head as he turned for
the door.

"Hey, I got you a..." David started, approaching Josh with a couple of
drinks in hand. He looked to Rob as Josh just stormed past and asked,
"Where's he going?"

"Don't know, don't care!" Rob said moodily. He knew he hadn't done anything
to deserve that kind of attitude, so he had no intention of chasing him.

*****

"Come on, just get dressed," Danny said, casually stroking Nicky's arm as
he sat beside him in the dorm.

"Yeah, you're missing a chance to find a Christmas hook-up!" Chris said
with a grin.

Danny shot Chris his sternest `you're not helping' glare.

"I don't want a hook-up!" Nicky pouted. "I want a date!"

"There's still time," Danny reassured him.

"Just because he doesn't want to be seen in public with you doesn't mean he
doesn't want to date you!" Chris added, mindlessly stating the fact rather
than actively trying to be mean.

"Chris!" Danny said sternly. "Go find Kyle and go to the party!"

"But..." Chris tried to argue, but the look he got in response immediately
silenced him. "Okay, I'll see you there!" he said as he stood up. He
stopped in front of Nicky, leaned down and kissed his forehead. "Both of
you, hopefully!"

Nicky gave the other boy a sincere but not hopeful smile as he walked away.

"You've got to come. You can't let Will mess it up. We survived our first
term. This deserves celebration!" Danny urged the unhappy boy.

"Why won't he just... do what I want?" Nicky asked, clearly frustrated. "I
just... don't get it."

Danny shrugged. "I dunno. I've thought about it a bit and I... maybe
understand... a little bit!"

Nicky gave Danny a look of disgust. It felt like such an utter
betrayal. "You're meant to be on my side!" he said sharply.

Danny recoiled a little and insisted, "I am, I am!" He held his hands up
defensively, then said, "But... I can get why he might be holding back, and
I can see why you might not get it."

"Oh yeah? Come on then, oh wise one. Educate me!" Nicky said with a wry
grin. In Nicky's mind, Danny knew nothing about their relationship, so
there was no way he could have any insight into it that would actually
help.

"Don't be a dick, we've already got Mikey and James for that!" Danny
admonished him, getting a snigger in response. "So the reason you might not
get it, is this..." he said, reaching across and grabbing Nicky's cock
through his trousers.

Nicky jumped a little at the sudden touch, then asked, "Do you actually
have a point, or was this just an excuse to grab my dick?"

Danny shrugged. "Both actually!" he said happily as he let go. "Look, you
never got locked. You came here as a scrawny kid with a man-sized cock so
you never had to deal with... all of it. The... the embarrassment of having
everyone know you're not... ya know... developed down there, losing control
of the most important body part. So that means you can't even imagine what
it feels like."

Nicky listened on, wanting to disagree but knowing he was right so far.

"I don't know Will. I mean, I know he's your mentor and I've seen him
around, but we're not mates, but even with that I still know that he's
locked; the whole school does. He's the oldest student still locked in the
whole place. That's gotta be hard to live with, even somewhere as accepting
as Kingswood," Danny went on. It was the sort of thing he had thought a lot
about recently as he deliberated his own freedom. "Now imagine dealing with
all that AND dating a Year 7 who's already taller and more developed than
you. I wouldn't wanna face that, and I'm a freak who gets off on
embarrassing stuff. I might be wrong, but... that's how it looks to me!"

"That's..." Nicky went to reply, ready to shoot down Danny's theory, but
the more he thought about it, the more sense it made. He hadn't even
considered that side of it, only his own desire to have their relationship
seen. "I have to go find Will!" he declared suddenly.

"Your wish is my command!" he suddenly heard from over by the door.

The two boys turned to see Jonathan standing there, accompanied by Will.

"Will, what are you..." Nicky started, standing up to face him.

"I needed to ask you something!" Will said, looking a little awkward.

"If it's what I think it is... don't!" Nicky quickly interrupted.

"Wait, what?" Will asked, confused.

"Do it when you're ready. When you want it. I can wait, you're worth it!"
Nicky insisted as he approached the older boy. "I'm really sorry!"

Will and Jonathan exchanged confused looks and slight shrugs. "Oh,
erm... okay then. So... we're good?"

"Better than good!" Nicky said happily. He moved to kiss his boyfriend who
recoiled a little, giving an alarmed look as he cocked his head towards
Danny. "Oh, he knows, but don't worry, we can trust him!"

"Oh, okay," Will said happily, then gave Nicky a brief but passionate kiss.

"Yeah," Jonathan sighed, shaking his head, I don't miss Year 7 drama!" As
he got a smirk from Will he said, "I'll catch up with you later!"

Nicky caught a strange look between them, but dismissed it quickly,
relieved to just be back on good terms with Will.

"Whadda you say we... celebrate making up?" Will asked with a grin. "We can
be fashionably late to the party!"

"Now that sounds like a plan!" Nicky said happily.

"Yeah it does, I think I'll join you!" Danny joked, delighted to see Nicky
and his boyfriend reconciled and proud of his own part in making it happen.

Will and Nicky looked at each other for a moment, smiled then looked to
Danny and said in unison, "Okay!"

Danny stared for a moment, unsure he had heard correctly. He blinked a few
times and asked, "Erm... what?"

"You wanna join us? You're more than welcome!" Will said, grinning.

"Fuck!" Danny exclaimed.

"Yeah, we probably will," Nicky said with a snigger.

"Okay!" Danny said, almost trembling.

"Let's go up to my dorm," Will said, nodding back towards the door.

The three boys hurried to the door but paused as Josh walked in.

"I thought you already went to the party!" Danny said, already eager to
leave.

"Yeah, just forgot something!" Josh said casually. "See ya there!"

"We might be late!" Nicky said with a snigger as he grabbed Danny and
followed Will out.

"That's weird," Danny said, frowning as he glanced back. "I'm sure he was
in David's wardrobe!"

"You wanna check on that or you wanna see me fuck his brains out?" Nicky
asked, gesturing towards a slightly embarrassed looking Will.

"That's a... really good point!" Danny said, hurrying along the corridor.

The moment the three boys were inside Will's dorm, they were all over each
other. While the two boyfriends were clearly keen to reconcile, having
Danny there was certainly drawing their attention.

Will had been nuzzling at Nicky's neck, his hand blindly groping at Danny's
body when he pulled away to see the two younger boys kissing. He panted
slightly and said breathlessly, "Fuck that's hot!"

Danny and Nicky parted for a moment to look at Will, then grinned and
resumed, making even more of a show of enjoying each other. Nicky pushed
Danny against a wardrobe door with a loud clatter, their lips pressed
together. Danny's hands slid up Nicky's back until they were both in his
hair, stroking and tugging at it alternately.

Nicky pulled away for a moment to look at Will who was mesmerised by the
sight of the two boys. He grabbed Will by the front of his shirt and
slammed him against the wardrobe beside Danny. He raised both hands, each
of them grabbing one of the two boys by the throat, not enough to choke,
just enough to hold them in place as he switched back and forth between
kissing each of them.

"Take your clothes off!" Nicky said in a low growl, keeping hold of their
throats for just a moment until he got a look of agreement from them
both. He took a step back and watched as they undressed.

While Will was shorter than his boyfriend, he was just a little taller than
Danny, though as they undressed they shared a similar level of musculature
that Nicky found intoxicating to behold. Enjoying two of his favourite
sexual partners at once was as exciting as it was unexpected. Sure, he had
taken part in numerous threesomes with Will and Jonathan, but that was
different. In those scenarios, it had always felt like he was just tagging
along on a `Jonathan doms Will' encounter. This, however, was
different. This was him and his lover, exploring and enjoying another boy
together. The fact it was Danny they were exploring just made it all the
more special.

Both Will and Danny were down to their boxers and neither looked overly
keen to be the first one naked. Will remained self-conscious about being
almost fifteen and still in chastity, while Danny had the opposite
problem. Having been recently released, `naked' now really meant naked for
him.

Nicky could sense their trepidation and smirked. "Okay, Danny, take off his
boxers!" he instructed, nodding to Will.

This seemed to remove the reluctance for both boys. Will wasn't `getting
naked' he was being stripped, something he found just as embarrassing, but
much easier to handle. He stood and watched as Danny squatted down then
slowly tugged at the underwear. It slid down, the smooth flatness of Will's
stomach continuing down until the top of his chastity belt came into view.

"Ah, that takes me back!" Danny said with a chuckle as the boxers slid
further to reveal the chastity belt and then dropped to pool around Will's
ankles. As he stood, seeing the older boy blush he said softly, "Sorry!"

"It's okay," Will said shyly, kicking his boxers aside.

"Okay, now you do him," Nicky said, pointing to Danny's underwear. "But
don't bother standing back up!"

It took a moment for Will to catch on, but when he did, he grinned. Danny
was a moment behind him, but his reaction was a couple of feet lower down!
His cock, already semi-hard from the sudden and passionate encounter (and
strangely, from Nicky's forcefulness) twitched to full firmness at the
thought of what his friend's boyfriend might be made to do.

Will squatted down and pulled Danny's boxers down as slowly as his own had
been. The smooth skin stretched downward, speckled with the first
beginnings of hair. Danny's erection bent downwards until it finally sprang
free of the underwear, reaching for the ceiling. "Aww," Will said as he saw
it at its proud nearly four inches.

"Okay, that's not the reaction I wanna hear when someone looks at my dick!"
Danny said, half smiling, half blushing.

"Sorry, I'm just used to..." Will started, then paused, glancing at Nicky.

Danny chuckled. "Ah, good point! I guess I don't quite measure up to
Nicky's trouser snake, do I!"

"Yours and mine together probably add up to his!" Will said, unbothered by
the self-deprecation it implied.

"Quiet!" Nicky snapped sharply, but was visibly suppressing a smile. "Get
it in your mouth but take it easy. Don't want him blowing too soon!"

"Yes Sir!" Will said, leaning forward to poke his tongue out and
tentatively probe Danny's cock.

"Mnnnh!" Danny grunted as he felt the tongue on his tool, though the sound
was soon muffled as he felt himself pressed against the wardrobe again,
Nicky's lips pushing his own apart to invade his mouth with his
tongue. Danny continued to moan, his hands flailing a little, not quite
sure who to grab onto.

Nicky soon resolved Danny's deliberation, taking hold of his wrists and
holding them up against the door on either side of his head. Danny was now
fully pinned, Will at his feet, face buried in his crotch, Nicky holding
his hands and pressing his head back firmly from the passionate embrace.

As Will slowly pleasured the young boy's dick, he reached up to begin
undressing Nicky. He had expected a little resistance, or to simply have
his hands swatted away but Nicky was either okay with it or too distracted
by Danny to object. Within a few moments, his trousers and boxers were
round his ankles, his large cock bobbing free. The older boy moved his
focus on to his lover's cock, wrapping his lips around while he stroked
Danny's.

Danny gently pulled his head to the side to free his mouth from the kiss
and whispered, "I wanna try something!"

Nicky let out a low growl and licked Danny's cheek playfully before letting
go of his hands and leaning back.

Danny dropped to his knees and grinned at Will who watched him lean in. He
pulled Nicky's cock from Will's mouth, then positioned it so the thick
shaft was against the older boy's lips, then leaned in to mirror the
position. He began kissing the older boy, but with Nicky's cock sandwiched
between their lips. All three boys let out pleasured moans that made clear
how much the arrangement suited all three of them.

The kiss between Will and Danny continued, their lips barely meeting over
and above Nicky's cock, their tongues lashing at the dick excitedly. Nicky
began to slide back and forth, fucking the tunnel made by the embracing
mouths as he rested a hand on each of their heads. As the pleasure grew,
his thrusts began to slow. He intended to make good on his earlier comment.

"Hey Danny," Nicky said with a knowing grin. The other boy looked up
without releasing the cock held in his lips. "Wanna see Will get fucked?"

Danny froze for a moment, eyes widening. That word, fuck, it meant so much
to him. The swear word he and his friends loved to use when the grown-ups
weren't around, but more than that, it was the symbol of one of the next
steps on his journey of sexual discovery. He had talked about it
occasionally with Nicky, but when his friend had mentioned it before coming
upstairs he hadn't even been sure how serious he was. But there it was, an
offer. Did he want to see? "Fuck yes!" Danny said as he leaned back,
grinning at the most appropriate use of the word he had ever uttered.

"You, there," Nicky instructed Will, pointing to his bunk. He looked to
Danny next and said, "You, there!" as he pointed to the bed on the opposite
side of the room.

Danny virtually leapt across the room, positioning himself to sit and
watch. It felt a little strange to be sitting naked on someone else's bed,
especially knowing it belonged to one of the other mentors of someone in
his dorm.

Will obeyed just as quickly, climbing onto his own bed. He knelt up on all
fours and looked back to Nicky questioningly. They had established a few
positions they both liked, but that one felt like the best to really show
off to the naked spectator.

Nicky grabbed a sachet of lube from the dorm's communal supply and ripped
it open with his teeth as he approached the bed, squeezing it out onto his
hand. Tossing the empty packet aside, he dipped the fingers of his other
hand into the slippery puddle then proceeded to roughly finger Will while
stroking the rest of the lube onto his own erection. He glanced over to
Danny whose hand was already pumping away at his much smaller boner.

"Nuh-uh, just watch, no touching!" Nicky instructed.

"N'awwwh!" Danny grumbled but dropped his hands to his sides.

"Hey, erm... don't judge me if this doesn't take long," Nicky said shyly to
Danny, his confidence faltering for a moment. "This is... pretty exciting
and... well... you know how it goes!"

Danny smiled and nodded.

Nicky knelt on the bed behind Will and lined up the flared head of his long
tool with the lube-slicked hole before leaning forward to start pushing in.

Will threw his head back a moment and moaned as he felt his boyfriend enter
him, then let it drop down, growling with pleasure.

"Look at Danny while I fuck you!" Nicky instructed.

Will let out a different kind of moan, but complied with the instruction,
looking red-faced at the younger boy who looked completely entranced.

"Ah yeah," Nicky moaned happily as he reached full depth, holding himself
there for a moment. As he looked over to his side, he could see Danny
looking frantically from Will's face, to Nicky, to Will's butt and back
again, clearly wishing he could focus on all of it at once. The focus was
drawn suddenly as Nicky pulled back, most of his big tool emerging from
Will's rear before sliding back in.

"Oh my God!" Danny groaned happily, desperately wishing he was allowed to
touch himself. He suddenly found himself thinking of Chris and the month he
had spent without cumming. Danny was struggling to hold back for a few
minutes, giving him a newfound respect for Chris' self-control.

"Want Will to suck you?" Nicky offered, more because he wanted to see it
than for any desire to give his friend relief.

"Hell yes!" Danny exclaimed, climbing off the bed to jump onto Will's bed,
guiding his straining cock towards Will's open and eager mouth.

"Fuuuuck," Nicky said, amazed at how much he was enjoying seeing Danny
pleasured by his subservient boyfriend. "Maybe we could swap!" he said, not
even sure how serious he was.

Danny's eyes widened as he shook his head. Seeing it was exciting, but it
was also enough to reinforce what he already knew... he was a long way from
anal!

"Huh, okay, I understand," Nicky said, nodding as he thrust in hard again.

"So does it feel good?" Danny asked. "For him, I mean?"

Will suddenly released the young cock from his mouth and screamed out, "OH
GOD, YES!" before wrapping his lips around the small cock again.

Both Nicky and Danny chuckled, but stopped just as quickly, both letting
out grunts that were a tell-tale sign of what was about to happen. Nicky
went first, gasping happily as his spunk filled Will up. Realising what was
happening, Danny shot his own load straight down the Year 10 boy's throat.

"That was so good!" Danny said as he slumped down onto the bed.

"Yeah it was!" Nicky agreed, his slick cock sliding out of Will's butt as
he flopped down too.

"Yeah it was!" Will repeated with a grin. He had not cum, but he was well
trained to get his enjoyment from pleasuring others and a load in each end
gave him a definite feeling of satisfaction. He sat and leaned against the
wall, clenching tightly to stop Nicky's seed from leaking. As he sat there,
he felt Nicky nestle up to one side of him, then Danny to the other.

They sat in comfortable silence for a few minutes, enjoying their shared
post-orgasmic calm as they let their breathing and heartbeats slow.

"I'm sorry I nearly screwed things up today!" Nicky apologised quietly.

"Yeah, me too," Will agreed. "I promise we'll come out some time,
just... not yet."

"Yeah, okay," Nicky agreed.

"Just so you know," Danny interjected. "If you ever fall out again, I'm
always happy to help out with the make-up sex!"

Will and Nicky laughed as Danny grinned at one of them then the other
before nuzzling against Will's side again.

"Okay, he's adorable, can I keep him?" Will asked with a snigger.

"Ahhh, you may wanna rethink that!" Nicky said cautiously. "He needs
walking about ten times a day, eats everything and recently started humping
anything that stays still long enough!"

"Hmm, maybe not then!" Will chuckled. "Now whadda you say we get down to
the party before we miss the whole thing?"

***** Friday 20 December 2019

Danny felt a poke to his cheek, stirring him to semi-consciousness. A
second poke took him the rest of way out of his sleep. He let out a low
groan as he felt it a third time. "If that's not a dick, I'm not
interested," he grumbled.

"Ooh, I should have thought of that!" Chris said happily, suddenly moving.

Danny grabbed the other boy and held him in place. As much as he would
actually like a dick in his face, it still felt too early. He opened his
eyes to see Chris grinning at him. "Why?" Danny asked, shaking his head.

"Why what?" Chris asked innocently.

Danny looked Chris up and down a little and smirked. "Just... why?"

"I'm so excited!" Chris said... excitedly!

"And you just can't hide it!" Danny said with a slight smirk, remembering
one of the many retro songs Chris had subjected him to in their first term
together.

"I'm. Going. Home!" Chris said, emphasising each word like it was the
greatest thing in the world.

Danny couldn't help smiling. While all the boys of the dorm were heading
home today, it was definitely a bigger event for Chris. Having been forced
to stay at the school during half-term, he had not seen his family since
arriving at the school almost four months earlier. Danny liked his family
and found it hard to imagine going that long without seeing them, so for
Chris, who absolutely adored his many siblings, it had definitely been
tough.

"Lots of Christmas shopping to do when you get home then?" Danny asked
quietly, not wanting to disturb the others who remained asleep.

Chris shook his head emphatically. "I'm already the best present any of
them could ask for!" he said with a confident grin.

Danny just raised an eyebrow, mildly bemused.

"Okay, not really. But the shopping's all done. I just told Edward what to
get and he sorted it!" Chris said casually.

Danny frowned. Aidan, Cian, Finn, Blane; they were Chris' brothers so the
name was lost on him. "Who's Edward?" he asked, tilting his head curiously.

"Oh, he's..." Chris paused and blushed a little. "I suppose... he's... sort
of a... butler!"

"You've got a butler!" Danny said in shock.

"I've got an Edward!" Chris insisted. "He's more like part of the family!"

"A part of the family who's paid to be there to... buttle?!" Danny frowned
at the word. It made sense in his head.

"Hey, it's not like we've got a whole load of help. Edward's mostly there
to look after the younger ones and help out and stuff," Chris
explained. "Mam and Dad are always working so Aisling and Blane do a lot,
but they can't do everything! Just cleaning the house takes about a week!"
Chris chuckled, thinking of home.

"You guys that messy?" Danny asked with a snigger.

"No, it's just that big!" Chris said with a casual shrug.

"Is your family loaded or something then?" Danny asked. He suddenly faked a
slight gasp and said, "Is Kyle just with you for your money? Fucks knows
it's not for your brain or your looks!"

"Too mean!" Chris said, pouting dramatically.

"Aww, I'm sorry!" Danny said, reaching out and pulling him into a hug. "I
didn't mean it!"

"I know," Chris whispered back. "I really just wanted a hug! I'm gonna miss
you so much!"

"I'm gonna miss you too," Danny said softly.

"And I'm gonna miss both of you!" Nicky called out from below.

"And I'm gonna miss Nicky!" David joined in.

"And I'm gonna miss English class!" James joked.

"And I'm gonna miss those meatballs they served the other day!" Rob added,
chuckling as the others were beginning to laugh.

Danny and Chris sat up, looking a mix of embarrassed and amused. "I hate
every single one of you!" Danny said, feigning annoyance.

As the boys were laughing, there was a knock at the door. It opened a
moment later and Mr Trent appeared.

"Morning Sir!" Rob called out politely.

"Morning," the teacher said, somewhat sullen. "Can I ask you boys to all
get dressed and then come meet me outside Mr Everett's office in ten
minutes."

The boys fell silent. As if Mr Trent's tone and demeanour didn't freak them
out already, being summoned collectively to the Headmaster's office was a
terrifying prospect.

Once Mr Trent left, the boys quickly got up and immediately started
speculating over what was going on, though with absolutely no facts to base
a theory on, they were all absolute shots in the dark. It was less than
five minutes before they were all dressed and heading down the stairs
silently. As they headed along to Mr Everett's office, the door opened and
Mr Trent popped his head out.

"Come in, boys," Mr Trent invited.

"Are we in trouble, Sir?" Chris asked nervously, a question on all of their
minds.

Mr Trent just stared back for a moment then moved back into the office,
holding the door for them as they filed in one-by-one. Once they were all
in, forming an orderly line in front of the Headmaster's desk as he sat
watching them, Mr Trent shut the door then moved to stand beside Mr
Everett.

"Take a seat, boys," Mr Everett said, gesturing to the row of chairs that
had been placed there for them. They quickly sat and the middle-aged man
took a deep breath in and exhaled out through his nose as he looked up and
down the line. "It has been brought to my attention that there has been a
serious breach of school rules."

The boys glanced slightly to either side at each other, their fear growing
as rapidly as their confusion. Sure, they had stayed up after lights out
most nights, they had been involved in a little sexual activity while still
in chastity and there had been Josh's incidents at the beginning of term,
but none of that was what any of them would consider serious.

"Data on the school's secure network has been accessed illegally!" Mr
Everett stated.

An expression of horrific realisation spread over the boys' faces. Mr
Everett and Mr Trent exchanged a look as they had both seen the reactions
and read it the same way.

"Sir, I can explain!" Rob suddenly said, leaning forward in his seat.

"Okay, go ahead," the Headmaster said, sounding genuinely receptive, always
keen to give his students a fair chance to explain themselves.

"So back after half-term, we got pranked and we ended up..." Rob started,
but paused, sure that most of the boys didn't want to re-live their
embarrassing public nudity. "Well, that doesn't matter. What matters is I
wanted to know who did it, like... really wanted to know. I was a bit
obsessed. Eventually... someone..." he didn't want to name David
specifically. "...said they might be able to access the school app's
messaging data to see who had messed with it to prank us and they
did... almost. They... they got access to the school network but when we
realised it was access to everything, like, really important and secret
stuff, we decided we shouldn't mess with it and so we never went back on
it. So yes, I admit we accessed the network, but we never even looked at
one file on it, Sir, I promise!"

The two men looked at each other again and nodded. "Well, thank you for
your honestly, Robert!"

Rob was shocked. He had never actually spoken to the man directly since his
initial selection interview and yet he remembered the name. He had heard
before that the Headmaster took a genuine interest in all of his students,
but this was the first time he'd really been able to witness and hint of
it.

"If that is true, then I suppose it may just be you and this... `someone'
who may be in the wrong," Mr Everett said thoughtfully. "So if we were to
have this analysed by IT, they would find no record or accessing any
confidential files?" he asked as he lifted a standard-issue school
laptop. As with most of them, it had been decorated a little, if only to
make it distinct and avoid mix-ups.

"Hey, that's mine!" David suddenly called out.

"Well, I'm guessing we found our `someone' then!" Mr Trent said, giving
David a slightly disappointed look.

"Yes Sir," David admitted sheepishly. "But you can look at anything you
want on there, you won't find anything, I promise! What Rob said is true,
we never looked at anything!"

"Okay, very well," Mr Everett said, "Mr Trent advises me you're a
well-behaved dormitory and with a few minor exceptions have never been in
any serious trouble, so I will remain hopeful that our IT checks verify
your story. I do have one question for you all though," he said, then
picked up a piece of paper and held it up. "This note was found along with
young David's laptop this morning. The note states that ALL the residents
of dormitory 1.01 took part in illegally accessing files. If that is indeed
untrue as you say, can you think why somebody might make such an
allegation?"

Most of the boys looked at each other confused. Danny, however, was staring
straight down the line at Josh.

"No Sir, and considering it was trying to figure something like this that
started the whole thing, it might be best that we don't just start
guessing!" Rob answered honestly.

Mr Everett actually sniggered and nodded. "That... is a good point, well
made. Very well. Robert and David, please remain but the rest of you can
leave! While not AS serious, we do still need to have a little talk about
cyber security!"

The remaining six boys filed out silently, giving Rob and David sympathetic
looks.

Once the door was closed and they were all a short way down the hall, Chris
said shakily, "What the fuck! That was..."

"Freakin' terrifying!" James said, shaking his head.

"What's he gonna do to them two?" Mikey asked, glancing back down the hall.

Josh was remaining silent, more so when he saw Danny staring at him.

"Probably not as much as he might have done! I'm just glad we never
accessed anything!" Chris answered. He grabbed at Danny for comfort, shaken
by the entire encounter, but as he looked at the other boy he noticed the
steely gaze locked onto Josh. "What's up?" he asked quietly.

The others all looked now, wondering what was happening.

"I dunno, that's a good question!" Danny said coldly. "Josh... what's up?"

Josh, already nervous from Danny's stare, suddenly had the other four
staring at him too. He reached into his pocket and grabbed his phone as he
declared, "I... I have to go!" and suddenly sprinted away down the
corridor.

"Danny?" Chris asked, thoroughly lost.

"Last night," Danny said, desperately hoping to be wrong and furious at the
prospect of being right, "You remember when we were leaving the dorm and
Josh came in?" he asked Nicky.

"Yeah," Nicky said, frowning with confusion. A look of realisation suddenly
spread over his face. "Shit, no way!"

"What?" James demanded, looking at Nicky. He turned to Danny and demanded
again, "What?"

Danny took a deep breath. Once he said it, there was no undoing the harm it
might do. "As we were leaving the dorm, Josh came in and I'm pretty sure I
saw him going into David's wardrobe!"

It took Chris, Mikey and James slightly different lengths of time to catch
on, but when they did, they all went through the same cycle of expressions
– confusion, denial then anger.

"He... wouldn't, would he?" Chris asked, not wanting to believe it.

"I mean, the note supposedly tried to drop all of us in it. That'd include
himself. That's just not logical!" James reasoned.

After the boys left Mr Everett's office, the morning dragged by. While the
rest of the school was on an end-of-term, almost-Christmas high, the boys
of 1.01 remained distinctly glum. When Rob and David had left Mr Everett's
office, they had both been quite upset, but David was absolutely
distraught. He had never been in trouble in his life and although he was
confident the IT checks would verify his story, he had been told there
would still be a punishment for what he had done, and it already terrified
him.

Josh had completely disappeared, which only added fuel to the fire started
by Danny's accusation. When they had told Rob what Danny saw, he had
outright refused to believe it, but Josh's absence eventually began to eat
away at his confidence on the matter.

As the day drew on, the boys began to depart. Chris had been first to
go. With a drive, a flight and another drive to get home, his journey was
probably the longest. It had been a fairly tearful goodbye he shared with
the others, feelings running high thanks to the morning's events. Not long
after that, Mikey left, very visibly sad to be parted from Danny,
especially at the unwlecome sight of his father in the car.

James, David and Nicky left in fairly quick succession after Mikey. Rob was
still trying to find Josh when his parents turned up, accompanied by Rob's
little brother, Milo. It had been a cheerful reunion, though it had been
soured slightly by the conversation Mr Trent had with them about Rob's
trouble.

"If you see him," Rob said to Danny before leaving, referring to
Josh. "Tell him..." he paused and sighed. "I dunno, tell him... he can talk
to me, okay?"

"Yeah, I will!" Danny reassured him, before giving him a quick hug and
waving him off.

Danny remained sat outside on his own. His parents weren't far off so it
didn't seem worth going inside yet, but he also hoped to be able to catch
Josh if he happened to appear for his departure. When he heard, "Danny!"
called from behind him, he raised his hopes for a moment, but found Adrian
approaching instead.

"Oh, hi!" Danny replied with a smile. He had not seen his new friend since
their misunderstanding in class the previous day and Danny was glad to have
the chance to try and clear the air before Christmas break.

"I'm sorry about yesterday!" they both said at once, then looked at each
other and started laughing.

"What are you sorry about?" Adrian asked, confused.

"I... don't actually know," Danny said, slightly embarrassed. "I just know
I upset you somehow and I'm sorry for that!"

Adrian grinned. "That's cute, but not needed," he said honestly.

"Then... what was it? I don't get it!" Danny asked bluntly. He flinched a
little and realised he may not have been so direct in asking had his temper
not already been frayed a little by the whole Josh situation.

"Danny, how many guys have you... been with this term?" Adrian asked,
seemingly taking Danny's directness as permission to the same.

Danny's brow furrowed a moment as he considered his answer.

"Yeah, don't answer," Adrian said. "It's not my business, I shouldn't
really have even asked, but my point is... you had to think!"

"Okay..." Danny said, on the verge of being offended.

"I'm not, like, shaming you or anything or saying you're doing anything
wrong," Adrian quickly explained. "My point is... we're
different. Obviously, not that different, we do all the same stuff, that's
one of many, many... MANY reasons I like you!"

"Nice save," Danny smirked.

"Thanks," Adrian grinned back. "But sex stuff... that's where we're
different. When I do that stuff with someone, I want it to be more than
just... casual fun and after I want to hang out with them... and I want to
know that it's special and for just us."

Danny nodded thoughtfully. As much as Adrian said he wasn't shaming, it did
feel slightly like he was, but Danny tried to give him the benefit of the
doubt. After all, they were friends and it probably took a lot of nerve to
be so open about how he was feeling. "So... just friends then?" he asked,
then looked momentarily worried and said, "We ARE still friends, aren't
we?"

"Of course!" Adrian said cheerfully. He glanced across at the car park and
saw his parents standing by the car. "Look, I gotta go. Text me or
something, okay? And have a great Christmas!"

"Thanks, you too," Danny said happily, then his eyes widened momentarily as
he said, "Do you... celebrate Christmas? Was that rude?"

Adrian grinned. "Rude is offering a hookup at the Christmas party. Wishing
me Merry Christmas is fine!"

Danny chuckled, blushing slightly at his own awkwardness. "Good. See you in
a couple of weeks!" he said happily.

And with that, Danny was alone again, waiting for either his parents or
Josh to show up. As luck would have it, both came along at once. He was
just standing up to head across as he saw his parents' car arrive when Josh
emerged from the building, flanked by his two older brothers.

"Josh," Danny called out.

Josh looked panicked as he saw Danny staring at him. He turned to his
brothers and whispered something. They whispered something back and he
turned to face his dormmate, slowly walking closer, leaving the older two
behind.

"Where've you been?" Danny asked.

"Around!" Josh said back, obviously not wanting to answer.

"The others were worried," Danny explained. "Rob wanted me to tell you he's
there if you need to talk."

"Okay," Josh said back, expressionless. "Is there something else?" Josh
asked a little petulantly.

Danny stared back at the other boy for a few moments then asked the
question he had been thinking about all morning, one he already knew the
answer to but still felt compelled to ask, desperate to be wrong. "Did you
do it?" he asked softly.

"Danny, come on," Mr Davies called from across the car park.

"One sec," Danny called back, then turned his gaze to Josh again, waiting
for the answer.

Josh's eyes flicked back briefly to his brothers. Danny wondered if he was
worried he might need protection from his angry roommate.

"I did," Josh finally answered.

Danny just shook his head, his face contorted into a look of absolute
disgust. Without another word, he turned and headed towards his parents.
