The other usual disclaimers too. ___________ Chapter 32 Steve and I picked up where we had left off the previous week, as comfortable with each other as we had been at the end of his afternoon at the dream house. Since his was the only yard I was cutting, I hadn't bothered to put on my kiddie uniform, choosing loose jeans and a T-shirt instead. I would have preferred to wear shorts, but I had learned the hard way the trimmer shot small stones and other objects as it spun, and they could be painful and even cause cuts when they hit my legs. Steve was wearing the same type of running shorts he had worn the week before. He had apparently given up on the shirt. Steve had clearly put some effort into lunch. Before I took over managing our kitchen at home, I would have eaten the pasta salad he gave me without realizing how much work it took to cut up all of the ingredients he had put in it. Now I knew. I enjoyed it and told him I appreciated his going to so much trouble. He gave me his best smile, the one that could cause a stone to feel lust. When we finished eating and I was about to start mowing, Steve asked me, "Got a lot more work to do this afternoon?" "No, yours is my only lawn today." Since I still thought of eating lunch as late as one o'clock as unusual, I decided I ought to provide some sort of explanation for why I had set the time so late without having other lawns to do. "My brother's home on spring break. He did a lot of mowing for me this week." "I wish I had known. I would've asked him for lunch too. Your father told me how much responsibility he took on when you rebuilt your house." "Yeah, Dad dreamed it up but Ted explained it all to the contractor. And watched him like a hawk too." "I could've used his advice then. But I was asking because if you don't have to leave right away, I was hoping you'd stay and visit for a while." I was in no hurry. "Sure, that'd be great. But I'm gonna be all covered with grass when I get done." "I can lend you a pair of shorts. You can take a shower too if you want to. Just use the bathroom door instead of the kitchen door. I'll put a clean towel and the shorts in there for you." When I finished trimming, I went to the door. I knew it would be silly to knock since the door opened into the bathroom and Steve would most likely be in the living room or the kitchen, but I felt strange simply walking into his house unannounced. I decided to open the door and yell. Steve came into the bathroom immediately. "What's up?" he asked. "Just wanted to let you know I was coming in." "Ok. Just leave your clothes in here. Want me to throw them in the washer?" "No. The grass'll dry on the pants in a while and I can just shake it off. I'm not wet like last time." "Ok. Want some ice tea?" "Yeah, that'd be great." I was still standing on the porch while I talked with Steve. I had taken off my shoes, and I decided I could just drop the jeans on the porch and not bring any of the grass into the house. It meant I would be naked from the waist down, but Steve owned the land on that side of the house right into the woods, so it was unlikely anyone would see me. Finally I thought, "What the heck," and dropped my T-shirt on top of the pile. I hadn't planned on taking a shower, but the idea of it had sudden appeal once I was in the house. One of the things I had learned immediately after I had taken over the mowing was how itchy I got from the sweat and dust. I had to force myself not to think about it until I could do something about it. And since I now could, I did. I pulled on the shorts afterward and went into the living room. Steve was sitting on the sofa. "There's your tea," he said, pointing to a glass. "Thanks," I said as I sat in a chair opposite him. Steve's legs were spread, so the first thing I noticed was his dick lying off to the left in his shorts. The shorts he had been wearing the previous week had been dark green, but these were light yellow and seemed to be made of a thinner material. They gripped the shaft and head of his dick firmly enough that the outline was clear, and the curve of his balls was very visible too as they seemed to hang heavy in the pouch. My dick responded immediately, but stopped just short of full erection. Since I could see it pushing against the fabric when I looked down, I guessed Steve could see it as well. I tried sitting in several different positions, but they either made my near-erection more visible or looked odd even to me. In the end I ignored it, as Steve seemed to be doing. We picked up our conversation where we had left off after lunch, but my questions quickly got us onto the subject of his renovations. The walls of the living room had had sections ripped out from ceiling to floor where new wiring was visible. It was possible to see into the other rooms through the gaps in the interior walls. The exterior walls had had insulation put in over the wiring. I couldn't help but ask about the work. "It took all week. I was lucky. The electrician came first thing on Monday and told me what needed to be ripped out. Then he left me to do it and came back Thursday to put in the wiring. He showed up just when he said he would both times. I was amazed." "Ted'd tell you just how lucky you were," I said. "Don't I know it!" "I can't believe how clean you keep it in here with all this work going on." I was actually amazed since the dream house had looked like a disaster area even after we moved in. "Can't stand all the dirt," he told me. "Everything has to be in its place and it has to be clean or it makes me crazy." We continued to talk and I continued to watch the show being provided by the movement of his dick in his shorts. As he shifted positions on the sofa and later when we walked around the house, his dick and balls moved so first one part and then another was being outlined by the clinging fabric. I suppose I was providing a show of my own as my nearly hard dick traveled around in the pouch of my own shorts. If it had been fully hard, it would have stood up against my belly, but as it was it just tended to travel around in the looseness of the pouch. I was actually relieved when it was time for me to change back into my own clothes and go home. When I told Steve that I would leave through the bathroom door, He asked why. He was surprised to find I had left all of my clothes on the porch. "You stripped naked outside?" he asked as he watched me shake the grass from the legs of my jeans. "Yeah. I figured nobody could see me since you own all that land." I swept my hand in a half-circle to indicate the land between his house and the woods. "I'm not so sure. That's why I want to build the fence. Of course I'm talking about lying in a hot tub, not just dropping my clothes and coming straight inside." "I go naked a lot at home in the summer, even outside and in the pool. But always when I've got the house between me and the road." "I'm not planning on needing a bathing suit to use the hot tub either, but I think I better have the fence. I don't own nearly as much land as your dad does." I had taken off the shorts he loaned me and was putting on my own clothes. My hardon had deflated some time earlier. Since I was pretty sure by this time he didn't have any sexual interest in me, I was quite comfortable with having him see me naked. I only wished I could get the same opportunity with him. The sight of his dick hanging heavy in his shorts was a continual tease. "I'll take your shorts home and wash them," I told him. I knew I had made a number of wet spots on them from precum, which had begun to flow very freely from my dick. I had been wondering if there was any connection between my making precum and being fucked or whether I was just now reaching the age where the flow of precum would have started anyhow. I did know that I was producing a greater amount than Ted did. "No need. I have lots of them. One more in the washer won't matter at all. Will you mow again next Saturday?" "Yeah, sure will. Unless the weather's bad." "Want to come for lunch again?" "Yeah, that'd be great. One o'clock?" "Works for me. Come even if you can't mow, ok? " "Ok, I will. Thanks." "See you then." And that continued to be our pattern until school ended for the summer. Whether or not I mowed Steve's lawn, I went for lunch at one every Saturday and stayed to visit afterward. Part of every week's conversation involved his house and the slow progress he was making on it, but the rest had to do with other aspects of his life and with mine as well. He had treated me as an equal from the beginning, and we talked about my life and interests as often as we did his. Since Steve exercised with my Dad every weekday morning, my growing friendship with him also had an effect on Dad's attitude toward Phil. Dad had always seemed as if he was on unfamiliar ground in dealing with my friendship with Phil. I think he saw the difference in our ages as a problem. For some reason, Mom was more accepting of it than Dad, although I doubt either one suspected there was more to it than a common interest in computers. But I had never really had much interest in the renovation of the dream house. It was Dad's project first and Ted's afterward. So when my friendship with Steve, who was several years older than Phil, began to develop, there was no connection between us through a common interest. Yet we had clearly become friends. Steve talked about me quite a bit to my Dad, who often repeated what Steve had said while we were having supper. Because of that, Dad became progressively more comfortable with my friendship with Phil as well. One of the results of my Dad's comfort was a greater ease in my getting together with Phil. Thanks to Ted, Friday night sleepovers at Phil's were taken for granted. By the time school ended for the term, I managed to spend several more evenings with him and most Sunday afternoons. On a beautiful Sunday toward the end of May, Phil picked me up late in the morning. He surprised me by turning away from town when he came to the end of our driveway. "Where're we going?" I asked immediately. "I thought we'd go for a ride and talk a while. Get lunch someplace too." Always before when he picked me up before lunch, we'd get fast food and take it to his apartment. Lunch and sex would then occur together. It often got messy. "We're not going to your apartment?" "No, I wanna talk some. You know what'll happen if we go there." "Sure do!" I said with a lot of enthusiasm. "Well, I wanna talk some instead. We'll get sidetracked if we go back to my place and never really get to talk about this." I was beginning to dread this talk. Nothing about it sounded promising. "Ok, talk to me," I said. I sat still, waiting for something I didn't think I wanted to hear. "I don't want you to take this the wrong way. But it's about the sex." "I thought the sex was great!" "Me too! But it seems like that's all we ever do." "What's wrong with that?" "There's other stuff we could do too." "Stuff as good as sex? Like what?" I couldn't figure out what he was talking about. "Stuff that's different from sex. There's a lot of stuff we could do besides just me fucking you." "You getting tired of that? We could suck instead. You don't have to always be fucking me." I would miss it, but sucking was fun too. "No. This doesn't have to do with the sex, honest. The sex is great! I love it when I'm inside you and we're taking it slow. It's like it's just you and me in the world then." "I don't understand. Why do you want to stop doing it then?" "I don't want to stop doing it! I want to do other stuff too. I want us to have stuff to talk about that we both did and people we both know." "I guess I do talk too much sometimes. You probably don't want to hear about all the stuff I'm doing. I'm sorry if I talk all the time. I'm sorry if I don't listen enough." "No, you got it wrong! You don't talk all the time. I do want to hear about all that. And I want to tell you the same kind of stuff about me. And you listen just fine. It's just . . ." I cut him off. "I don't understand what I'm doing wrong then." I was confused, but I thought I was beginning to make some sense of it. I thought he was working up to telling me we weren't going to see each other again. "You're not doing anything wrong at all! What I'm trying to say is I want us to do some stuff we don't have to sneak around to do. I wanna know if we can spend time with each other when we're not fucking each other's brains out and still like it. I wanna have sex and I wanna do other stuff too!" The idea that you would want to do something else when you could be having sex came as a shock to me. "I have to think about this a minute, ok? Just lemme think a minute." It had never occurred to me you could separate the sex out of a relationship if it was already there. Sex was either something you could do with somebody or something you couldn't. And with somebody you couldn't have sex with, it could sometimes change so that you could. But it never went the other way. On tv and in movies, when people who were having sex stopped, they always stopped seeing each other too. It was like that with Del. When he had babysat with me, we spent every second we were together having sex or getting ready to have sex. I didn't know what we would have done if we weren't having sex. There was no place else to go with each other. If I stopped having sex with Del, I would stop seeing him too. Phil was saying the opposite. He wanted to add something to the sex that was already there. It seemed to me the sex was the last thing you added, so when you got to the sex, that was the most there could be. That was the way it was with the foursome. Once we started having sex, everything else we had done before started to take second place and the sex became the important thing. I hardly ever saw Boomer now except to have sex when before we had done all sorts of things together. But on the other hand, when I thought about Ted, I realized nothing had been left behind when we started having sex. He still watched out for me and we still did the things we had done before. We chatted or emailed each other at least once a day and usually more than that. We told each other everything. We trusted each other completely. He even counted on me to help him out now as I had always counted on him. If there had been any change, it was that we were closer together now than we ever had been, if you took into account that he wasn't home very much since he had gone to college. But just as he had told me it would be when Mom moved to Atlanta, nothing had changed between us and I believed it never would. This brought me back to Phil. I was still working out the possible similarities between my relationship with Phil and my relationship with Ted when he interrupted my train of thought. "Hey, you been quiet for a long time. You ok?" "Yeah, I'm ok. I been working this out." I had been trying to work it out logically, but his question made me leap to a conclusion I couldn't yet actually see. It caused me to ask a hard question, one I wasn't going to like the answer to if I had leaped the wrong way. "You want to find out whether you like me or not, right? I mean when you're not fucking me." I asked. "No! I already know I like you when I'm not fucking you! But the sex is so terrific that I don't feel like we're getting to be better friends because right now all we can think about is the sex. I want us to be terrific friends too so it's just as great for us to be together even if we're not gonna have any sex. I don't think that's just gonna happen. I know it's not gonna happen if all we ever do is fuck like crazy. I think we have to give it a chance to happen." "What about if it doesn't happen?" "Well, I know you're not gonna believe this because I wouldn't when I was your age. But you get tired of sex after a while. I don't mean you don't want to do it any more. But after a while, it's not enough if that's all there is. The sex just turns into something that's too much trouble to bother with very often." He was going too fast for me, giving me too many things to think about at one time. I had to think some more. After a few minutes, Phil said, "You got quiet again." "I'm still trying to figure this out. Are you saying you think it'll happen like you said?" "Yeah, I think we'll get to be really really good friends if we give ourselves a chance." "Oh." I said. That hadn't been what I was asking him. I was asking if he thought we'd get tired of the sex. It seemed to me the sex was the best thing I had to offer. And if we got tired of that, then what? But he seemed to be telling me I had something else he thought he'd like more than the sex and that was what he wanted now. I couldn't even think of how to frame the question I wanted to ask. "You don't sound like you're interested in that," Phil said. "No," I started off. "No, wait. I mean yes. I think I am. I'm just not sure what you mean. I always thought the sex was the hardest thing. Taking a chance about the sex. You know, letting somebody know you're wanting to do it and how bad it is if it turns out they don't. But that's not what you're saying at all." "You're right. That's not what I'm saying at all. I'm saying we need to take a chance that we like each other as much as I think we do. We have to make sure we don't just like the sex. You know how we try to make each other feel the best when we're fucking? I mean I can tell when you're doing stuff to make it feel better for me when you could just not. I do that for you too. I think that means we care about each other and it's not just fucking. I'm talking about seeing if we feel like we want to do that other times too." I thought I finally understood. "Ok, I think I got it now. I want to do that too." Then I had a horrible thought. "But does that mean we don't fuck any more?" "No way! But sometimes when we get together, I want us to know right up front that we aren't going to fuck so we can enjoy other stuff together. I don't want us to be thinking if we just get done with this thing we're doing, we can finally get to the fucking because that's the important thing." "Like today, right? No fucking today." "Right. No fucking today." Phil had had his right hand on the gear shift knob with his fingers wrapped around it even though it was an automatic and he didn't have to shift gears at all. He turned his hand up and spread his fingers. After he had done it, he looked down so I would look at his hand as well. I understood immediately what he wanted and laid my own hand on top of it, intertwining my fingers with his. We drove that way, holding hands in silence until we stopped for lunch. As soon as I got home that night I paged Ted and got an immediate response. "I'm surprised you still got the energy to type after being in bed all day with Phil," he said. "No, we never did anything." "What! You must be losin' your touch." "Lemme tell you what happened." And so I did, leaving out none of the details. "And we had a great time all day!" "I had a feelin' he might be interested in you for more than just your asshole. I knew you liked him for more than his dick. But I got that feelin' from talkin' to him." "I really had trouble with it at first. I thought he was just getting ready to say he'd seen enough of me or something." "No way. I coulda told you that wasn't it. So I guess we'll have to get you a fresh supply of jerk-off gel or a vibrator or something if you ain't gonna be gettin' any from Phil." "That was really the weird part. It was great to just be with him today. I musta been thinking all that time that we had to get to the sex or else. I didn't know I was feeling that way. 'Cause I really knew I wasn't feeling that way today. It was real relaxed." "I bet you'll find out the sex is more relaxed too. I mean if you ever do it again. Hehe." I had intended to tell him the only other person I felt that way with was him, but I answered the joke instead. "I know we'll do it. I know I can make that happen if I have to jump on him to do it." "Makes me happy for you, Sport." >From then on it was like that with Phil, fun in bed or fun out of bed, and I never knew which to expect. Except on Friday night, when we had both because the privacy of his apartment always led to sex. But the sex was different now, even better than it had been. It was, as Ted had said, somehow more relaxed. To be continued I'm off on vacation for a few weeks. I'll have a new chapter soon after I return. _______________ Comments appreciated.
