Humble apologies from the author! Feedback: javabiscuit@hotmail.com Back to the Playground ~ chapter five by Biscuit I liked my shrink. I'd been seeing him for about a year when I finally told him about Skyler. A little bit. It got to be too hard to talk about my life without saying his name. "Well you see, there's this kid," I started and nothing more came out. This kid ... what? Who reminds me of me. This kid I love. That I want to fuck. It was around Christmas. Not a good time for me. At least, not usually. When I was a kid, it was like a lot of other stuff, something my family was over giving a fuck about by the time I came along. Later it was just plain awful; after my dad died, and worse still when my mom got sick. It really sucked, like having your nose rubbed in your misery. But Helen's fussing over just the right sort of tree and precise use of tinsel didn't bug me. My brother and I got to bond over carrying out her orders and having her be pleased with us. Things weren't so bad. Skyler had a lot to do with why. I loved seeing him enjoy all the decorations and get worked up about what he was going to get for Christmas and even more about what he was going to give people. The school at home stuff was working. I guess the fact that they came to me, instead of me having to show up somewhere, worked better. It used to be I'd set out in the morning like I was going to school. Sometimes I'd even think so myself, until I got on the bus, or the subway, whatever. I'd look around and wonder who on the bus with me, or walking past me on the street, I could fuck. Somewhere along the line, whether I saw someone who seemed likely or not, I'd bug out on the whole school idea. It gave me a big rush, like a high, just to make that choice not to do what I was supposed to do. Stepping outside the real world. Part freedom, part misery. It was a powerful thing but in the end it just made me feel more and more disconnected. Disconnected. That sums up a lot about me. Now I was trying to step back into the world. But there was Skyler. Both making me want in, and making me feel like I had no right to be there. "Tell me about Skyler," my shrink said. Every second I sat, not talking, it got harder to start "He's just a kid," I made the words come out, and then shut up, throat tight and the backs of my eyes hot. So fucked. "What about Skyler?" my shrink said. "I like him," I said and it sounded so fucking pathetic. The box of tissues, always there next to me. I looked at it, knowing I was going to cry if I tried to say anything more. So I didn't. Funny how even in the cold, in the winter, you can find guys in Central Park. The guy I found when I left my shrink's office, didn't give a shit that I started crying in the middle of doing him. I don't think he even noticed. What the hell, I was sucking his dick. I'm sure he thought I was just choking on his big tool. At the end I jerked him off. The tip of his condom, full of hot spunk, was steaming in the cold air. I wasn't in too bad shape by the time I got home, but I felt shaky. By the time Skyler got home from school, I was okay. He was all excited because school was almost done, only a half week coming up before vacation. God, he was excited. He was late getting home from school. Soaked through from a snowball fight, and as red cheeked as an apple. We went down the hall to his place so he could put on dry clothes. I liked their apartment. Not so formally done up as Helen's. Charlotte, Skyler's mom was a lot more casual. Even though the place was basically clean, there was plenty of clutter. Especially in Skyler's room which was loaded with toys and shit. No way he was getting into clothes without playing first. He danced his bare ass away from me, jumping and bouncing on his unmade bed, like a wind-up toy with the key turned one too many times. He dropped with a bounce, his legs waving to show off his naked plumbing, laughing. Then he grabbed at the bedcovers, pulling them up over his head. "Find me!" he cried, muffled through the blankets. Find my dick, is what he meant. I wanted to crawl in there with him and never come out. On my knees by his bed I started to feel the boy shape through the covers, teasing him by rubbing his legs, near his crotch but not touching that suggestive bump in the blankets. He wiggled around, trying to get it under my hand. I'd brush it and stop, driving him crazy until he threw the covers off and glared at me. "Brandy, don't be mean!" Then a smile quirked his lips and he looked like some perfect, lewd rendering of Peter Pan. Mussed up thick blond hair, limpid blue eyes, and a body so vibrant, including his rigid little prick, that it looked like he could fly. I grabbed him by the waist and buried my face in his stomach, making him scream out a laugh. God was his skin beautiful. Even as he laughed, squirming, he yelled at me, "Lower!" No, God no. But of course I did it. And of course, he loved it. And my briefs took a soaking as I rubbed my dick on the side of the mattress with my mouth clamped around his tiny cock. Afterwards, in the midst of him doing his homework at his mom's kitchen table, me doing up the dishes for her that were left in the sink, I looked around and found him sitting with his head on his hand, staring at me like a love struck puppy. Wrong, wrong, wrong, I thought, but my heart was plumping up like a sponge. It's not like Skyler's life was all that much easier than mine, in a way. Under his excitement about Christmas, were nerves. He'd be seeing his dad who was hardly ever in the picture. I was there the evening that he was getting ready for his dad to pick him up. Charlotte was a mess, putting things in his backpack for him. Skyler wanted different, nicer clothes to take with him. I knew he was looking forward to seeing his dad and wanted to look nice. "No, you tell your dad if he wants you to have nice things he's got to buy them for you." Jesus, I wanted out of there so bad. She'd called me to come take him down to the lobby and wait with him for his dad, who she couldn't bear to lay eyes on. He didn't need any one to take him to the lobby. It wasn't like he didn't come and go as he pleased every day, and she knew it. But she was a nervous wreck, and not making much sense. The look on his face was killing me. No eight year old kid should have to look so struck. Down the hall and into the elevator, his head was hanging like it weighed a ton. I couldn't help it. I tidied up his hair, and put my hands on his shoulders, giving him a little squeeze. "You look great, Sky," I said. God's honest truth, especially when he smiled. "Get out," he said. "I don't look great." "Sure you do. Tell me again where you guys are going for dinner." I made as much fuss as I could about envying him going out to eat seafood, and he was grinning and promising to eat some shrimps for me. I was glad then that she'd called me. Maybe she knew herself, that Skyler needed a buffer between her and his dad. The dad looked like Skyler, a little. Sturdy and blond. Tall guy with the same dark blue eyes. When he came in through the big glass doors of the lobby, he held open his arms and Skyler went running. I felt better then. I think it was after Christmas that I broke down and told my shrink the truth about Skyler. It was so hard. What is it that makes you want to prove to your psychiatrist that there's nothing wrong with you? Well, the jig was up, I thought. Predictably, he said nothing. That's the way it was with him. He listened endlessly, prompting me to go on with neutral sort of questions. But the thing was, try as he did, to show no judgments, I kind of knew when something upset or alarmed him, and I was poised for his hatred of me. Maybe he was being extra careful because it was such loaded stuff I was saying, but I could hardly tell if he was breathing, let alone what he felt. "Are you shocked?" I asked him. "Do you think I should be?" Like getting your hands stuck in glue sometimes, talking to a shrink. At least trying to get them to answer something. I let it drop. But not long after that I started to tell him things about the sex club, and being six years old. Same reaction. In the meantime, Skyler and I went through an after Christmas let down. We didn't fool around so much. A relief to me, for once, not to have things escalate. In the depth of that winter what he wanted most was to curl up in my lap to watch TV, or to play a new game he called doctor. Now you'd think doctor had to be about sex. But it was about his dad, who was a doctor. He'd given the kid a stethoscope as one of his gifts. It was a physical game, and it would end up getting sexual, but at the the start it wasn't. Skyler would hold my wrist to feel for my pulse, and listen to my heartbeat. All very serious. He'd tap my knees to pretend to test my reflexes, any sort of thing he could remember from his dad's practice. Sometimes he gave me pretend shots in my backside, which required unzipping my jeans and sliding them down enough to show him a bit of skin. I honestly didn't care what we did. Just to see that face at my door was enough. Ben was still around. Every time I let him fuck me I swore I wasn't going to do it again. It's not that I didn't like it, I just hated how he snuck me into his parent's place and out again so nobody would ask him about me. When I saw him with his girlfriend in the elevator one day, he turned bright red and I knew he was praying I wouldn't say a word to him. I didn't. The guy thought he was a much bigger deal to me than he was. There were fourteen floors in that building. Twelve apartments on every floor. I think every closet case living there eventually tried his luck with me. Mostly married guys. Mostly on the elevator, giving me a look. One way or another they'd show off a package. Nobody whipped it out or anything, more like an epidemic of lint that had to be brushed off the fly fronts of their pants. Not interested. Even the ones who looked good to me. Bad enough getting hustled out of Ben's apartment. I couldn't take a chance on screwing things up for myself there, getting caught. There was only one guy, besides Ben, that I fooled around with. His name was Trent and it was his mom who fixed me up with him. What a riot. She was a friend of Charlotte's, who did know I was gay. Charlotte, I'd find out later, thought Skyler was gay. She actually thought I was a good role model for him! The thing with me being in therapy didn't phase her, she was seeing a psychiatrist herself, since her breakup with Skyler's dad. To her it was another point in my favor. Anyway, Charlotte had this friend on the second floor with a son named Trent who I'd never laid eyes on because he was strictly a sneak in and out of the building on the stairs kind of guy. He was in his last year of high school at some place for geniuses downtown. Trent was smart, fat, and gay. When I showed up at his door on a Friday evening, invited to dinner by his mom, he just about shut the door in my face. He got the door halfway closed, he opened it again, with a look of pure misery on his face, and said, "Come in." Man was I confused. His mom had called Helen. Helen asked me to go to this dinner thing as a favor to her, to meet this young man who she described as a young gay person that didn't have many friends. The whole thing struck me as very bizarre, but I wasn't going to say no to Helen. If she wanted to trot me out as a nice gay boy to befriend somebody else's nice gay boy son, so be it. Skyler's the one who told me that Trent was okay. Trent was so embarrassed by what his mom had done, he just wanted to die. She'd actually gone out to leave us alone in the apartment to get to know each other. We were two steps into their place when he told me, basically, go home. What the fuck. I might have turned around and walked out if it weren't for knowing that Helen would be there, asking me what happened. If I hadn't pretty much liked Trent on sight. He was a big guy, tall and kind of fat, with messy thick dark hair that hung down in his eyes and the most rumpled looking shirt in the world, half tucked into his jeans, half falling out. He was the only one who hadn't been let in on our blind date. He thought I was a kid that needed tutoring in math until he saw me. He put two and two together, why his mom had fussed with dinner and bugged out, saying she wouldn't be home until later, trying to get him to change his clothes and brush his hair. "No offense kid, but I'm not into twinks," he said to me. Defensive shit, blushing. "My mom is out of control. I don't know what she said to you, to get you down here, but forget about it." "She said I look like I'd be good on my knees and did I want to blow her son's big dick. I told her, sure." Well, at least it made him laugh. Trent had no idea how cute he was. True enough, he was not into twinks -- a label I hated but couldn't exactly dispute. What he lusted for was a hunk; a side of beef with a mighty six pack. But when I jumped him on the couch after we ate his mom's lasagna, he let me have my way with him. Trent would become one of the best friends I'd ever have. He did end up helping me out with math and put up with my lust for his ample butt. I'm not exactly a chubby chaser, but with him I discovered just how nice it is to have a pair of buns like pillows to rock my dick into. I was, of course, joking when I made the crack about his big dick, but it turned out he was hefting a thick seven incher in those baggy jeans of his and I spent some very happy times with my mouth around it. It made him cringe when his mom beamed at us, but it made me feel good. So different from how things were with Ben. I would only have Trent there until he took off for college, which thrilled him, and depressed the shit out of me. He was destined to find the stud of his dreams at school but he was a good friend to me and every once in a while let me tumble him back into bed. It took some of the physical pressure off me with Skyler, who continued to be the stuff of my dreams.
