Be 18. Be safe. The story is mine.

Greetings. Welcome back to the continuation of the rail journey of
Mason; the trip he didn't want to make but is finding to be much more
interesting than he ever imagined as he gets to know the more
worldly Liam. I hope you enjoy the trip through the Willamette Valley
of Oregon.

CHAPTER 3
LIAM

We made it through the Parlour Car, the dining car, and into the
Sightseer car. I was right about it not being full. It wasn't even half
full. We found two seats together. The seats faced out the big
windows so our backs were to the aisle.

"This car is really cool," Liam said. "Those windows are way bigger
than the ones in our lounge."

"My dad says they're the biggest train windows in the world."

"Awesome."

We sat watching the farmland go by at eighty miles an hour. I wasn't
totally sure what Liam wanted to talk about so I figured I'd wait and
see what he said. Finally he decided to talk after looking around to
make sure nobody was real close to us.

"I think you're pretty cool," he said. That was it? He wanted to go
someplace a little private to tell me how cool I was? I didn't think Liam
was a wimpy dork or anything. I thought he was pretty cool, too. But
now he was acting all dorky and I didn't know what to think.

"Um...thanks," was all I could say.

"No, I'm serious. I was kind of scared with the stuff I was doing like
pushing on your leg. I thought you might get mad or something. I'm
used to being around my friends and we do that kind of stuff all the
time.  But you did it right back. I guess I thought if you didn't want to
do it, it wasn't like I was ever going to see you again after the trip."

"And I sure wasn't going to beat you up," I said, smiling to make sure
he knew I wasn't mad. "Not with you being bigger than me."

"Oh, I dunno. Like my basketball coach likes to say about our short
team, `It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the amount of fight in
the dog that counts.'" That got us both giggling, taking our minds off
the serious stuff we had been talking about.

"Well, I really liked it."

Liam grinned at me. "I could tell."

I was wondering where this talk was going to go from here. I was
really hoping Liam would talk more about touching each other and
stuff, but I wasn't really sure how to deal with all this, so I guess I
wasn't really sure what I wanted.

Liam looked around so I did too. Nobody was sitting close to us, but
since he was looking to make sure of that, I figured he was going to
talk more about sex stuff. Then he leaned in close to me and said,
"Did you get a boner when I rubbed you?"

I nodded yes.

"Cool, so did I. I got one now, do you?"

I nodded no, but I could feel one maybe starting. My dick was moving
around in my shorts like a snake, or maybe more like a worm.

Liam leaned in close to me again and asked me another question.
"Do you want to see who is bigger?"

I gotta say this...Liam just kept surprising me. One minute he talked
about how he was all scared, but most of the time he was like this. I
knew I liked him being like this because I had a boner. Liam was
getting right to where Andrew had been, but I'd only known Liam for a
few hours.

"Mine's not very big," I said. I wondered if I should tell him about me
and Andrew measuring each other. "I measured it this week if you
want to know how big it is."

"I measure mine too."

"So, I'll tell you how big mine is and you can tell me how big yours is."
I was hoping there would be more to it. I guess if we weren't on the
train there might be, but I figured I'd just tell him how I was only three
and a half inches. I bet to myself that Liam was as big as Andrew.

"I was thinking maybe we should check each other's out and like
compare them. I mean that way we won't exaggerate how big we are.
Not that I think you would but maybe it was measured wrong or
something."

I figured I could add a whole inch to my dick and it would still be
smaller than his. I don't know why I thought his was so big. Maybe
because he was kinda skinny and had long legs and his arms looked
long. I just figured that his dick must be long, too. Or maybe because
he liked to talk about sex things and it could be that guys who liked to
talk about sex a lot had really big dicks. I really didn't know very much
about it, so I kept coming up with these weird ideas.

"It's cool. I guess we should be accurate."

"Exactly."

"Um...but we can't do it here."

"I didn't think so. We could try one of our bedrooms I guess."

I thought right now there would be somebody in each of the
bedrooms or somebody would come right in when we had our dicks
out.  I had a better idea. "Why don't we go into one of the downstairs
bathrooms."

"They're pretty small for two people."

"We're not going to pee or anything, we're just gonna compare our
boners and zip up. In and out." I thought it sounded like a pretty good
plan. We should be able to get in and out with nobody seeing us if we
were careful.

"I got it. In and out." I didn't know if he meant us going in and out of
the bathroom or our boners going in and out of our pants, only that
would be more like out and in. There wasn't much to be seen from
the Sightseer except more of the valley so we got up and headed to
the front of the train and the sleeping cars.

We went into the diner and walked past some of the crew who were
eating lunch at a couple of the tables. One of them was the dining car
steward who stopped us. "Sorry boys, only sleeping car passengers
are allowed past here."

"We are sleeping car passengers," I said.

"Looks like you're coming from the coach section to me," he said, not
real nicely.

"We were in the Sightseer," I told him.

"And what were you doing there?" That sounded like a stupid
question to me. What did he think we were doing there, comparing
boners? I decided to give him the answer that was obvious.

"Um...we were looking out the window." I heard a snort and could see
that Liam was doing everything he could not to bust out laughing.

"Don't get smart with me or I'll get the conductor to deal with you
two." What an asshole, I thought, but I didn't say anything. I know my
face was starting to feel hot, my heart was pounding, and my knees
were shaking a little. I had this vision of me and dad and Garrett
being tossed off the train at the next stop. I didn't like being in trouble,
especially when I didn't do anything, but this was starting to get worse
than being in trouble.

"He's cool," I heard a voice say from one of the tables. "He's in my
sleeper." It was Arthur, our sleeping car attendant. I hadn't noticed
him at the table, mostly because Mr. Bigshot, the dining car steward,
had me wishing there was a way to get to the sleepers without going
through the dining car.

He had no choice but to let us go. "Okay, go ahead, but it might be a
good idea that you don't go through the train without your parents."

"Yes, sir," Liam said. It's probably pretty good that he said something,
because I was ready to be a smartass on purpose instead of by
accident. Like I said, I am easy going most of the time, but don't get
me mad. And trying to get me in trouble when I didn't do anything
wrong is something that makes me mad.

We went from the dining car into the Pacific Parlour Car was quick as
we could. "I was afraid we'd never make it back here," I said. "Usually
Amtrak workers are pretty friendly but he sure wasn't."

"Aww, it would've worked out. We could have just told him to go find
our parents and they would've told him who we were."

"I have a feeling he wouldn't have done that. He would've just gotten
the conductor and got us into major trouble."

"Don't worry so much. We're here now and we won't go back." I felt
my face flush for a moment. It was like Liam was chewing me out,
too. But he's the one who kept his cool, not me, and I thought I was
good at keeping my cool. He was right, it all worked out okay, so I
should quit worrying. We were in the Pacific Parlour car, but the
steward stopping us and all the stuff that happened did make my
boner go away. That didn't mean I wasn't going to compare dicks with
Liam. I bet his went away, too, and I bet even more our boners would
come back in the little bathroom.

Garrett and Wolf were busy playing UNO at one of the little tables in
the middle of the car.

"Hey, Wolf." Liam greeted his brother with a smile so I did the same
thing and said hi to Garrett.

"You guys want to play with us?" Garrett asked.

"Maybe later," Liam said. "Mason and I want to check something out."

"What?" Wolf asked.

"Nothing,  I'll tell you later." That surprised me. I sure wasn't going to
tell Garrett what we were going to do. I can't believe Liam was going
to tell Wolf. Then I figured Liam was probably telling Wolf he would
talk later to keep him from asking lots of questions. Liam would
probably make up some kind of a lie later. It seemed to work. Wolf
went back to his game and we kept going up to the sleepers.

"Okay. I know what you're going to do anyway," Wolf said as we
walked away, getting last word in.

Liam turned around and smiled but we kept on going. I could hear
Garrett being the one to ask "what?" this time. This was starting to get
very complicated. Liam didn't wait for Wolf's answer.

We opened the doors and stepped up to the first sleeping car, though
I guess if you were counting from the front of the train it would be the
third sleeping car. I knew it was car 1132, since ours was 1131 and
Liam's was 1130, which I guess means his car was the first sleeper.

Now I was thinking like my foamer dad. I needed to quit thinking
about the stupid sleeping cars and think about getting my boner back.
I mean here I was about to go downstairs to crowd into a little
bathroom on a train with a really cute looking blond boy who had a
German mother and was named for an Irish uncle and who I met just
a few hours ago. But I never wanted anybody to see my boner more,
even Andrew. I didn't care if my boner was small; Andrew said it was
a nice one so I hoped Liam would think so, too. I didn't know why it
was important for me to have Liam like my boner, but it was and I
wasn't going to try to figure it out. As we went down the stairs to the
lower level I felt my dick getting hard. I hoped that Liam was hard,
too.

We got down to the bottom of the stairs and stood still for a minute to
check out if anybody in the bedrooms noticed us. If anybody was in
them they didn't seem to be paying any attention to us. I led Liam
past the first bathroom and the shower and to the second two
bathrooms. I picked the one on the left and opened it. We both looked
back and then I stepped inside and Liam followed. I shut the door and
latched it. The room was really a tight squeeze. It was a good thing
we were two kids or we would almost be standing on top of each
other.

We stood facing each other. I had my back to the wall and he had his
back to the sink. The door was on my left and the toilet on my right.
"I've got a boner," I said. I figured maybe I should start something for
once. It always seemed to be the other guy who got these sex things
started. I mean, if they were sex things. Maybe it was just showing
off. It's not like Mr. Z covered this in sex ed. There was no lesson on
how two boys jammed into a little bathroom on a train should show
their boners to each other.

"I do, too," Liam said.

He showed he wasn't going to play around at being shy. He
unbuckled his belt and opened the button on his shorts. I did the
same thing and went ahead of him by pulling down my zipper
exposing my white briefs which were having a hard time keeping my
boner from exploding right out of them.

Liam unzipped, too. Holy shit, I thought, I don't think he's wearing any
underpants. I figured it was okay to say shit in my head, just not to
say it out loud, at least not when anybody like a parent is listening.
Maybe Andrew had the right idea about cussing.

It turned out I was right. He pulled his shorts down and let them drop
to his ankles. He wasn't wearing any underwear, and of course being
the dork that I am I had to be sure to tell him that I noticed he wasn't
wearing any underwear.

"I like going commando," he said. "It feels really sexy."

"Do you do it all the time?" I asked.

"Not all the time, but I like doing to sometimes." He looked right at my
crotch and said, "I never wear briefs. They get too tight on my dick
and balls. I like them hanging loose."

"I like briefs. I guess I like how they get all tight on my dick and balls."
I then pulled down both my shorts and briefs at the same time and
then really took my time looking at Liam's boner.

It looked a little smaller than Andrew's but it was for sure bigger than
mine. It was skinny like mine was, not big around like Andrew's. It
stuck up and out while mine stuck almost straight up in the air. He
was circumcised just like Andrew and me. His balls hung down some
like Andrew's did and it looked like he didn't have any hair down there
at all. But then to see Andrew's hair you had to look really close.

I could see Liam staring at mine the same time I was starting at his.
"You got a nice one," Liam said. That was the exact same thing
Andrew had said when he saw mine. It made me feel really good.

"It's pretty small."

"It's okay. I think it's really nice."

Before we could say anything else the train lurched and Liam fell
against me. His arms were on both sides of me as he used his hands
to brace himself against the wall. My hands were on his chest trying
to stop him from crashing into me. He was leaning on me, his hands
against the wall, and I was leaning against the wall and our boners
were touching. That felt really weird and really good at the same time.
Our faces were so close it was like we could kiss each other if we
were a boy and a girl, but we were both boys and wouldn't do
something like that. Still, I liked having Liam's face that close to me. I
thought Liam would back up and pull us apart, but he didn't. He just
kept leaning up against me with our boners touching even though
Liam was a little bit taller than me.

"That feels really good," he said. His face was just a few inches away
from mine. I could feel his breath on me.

"Yeah, it does." I had to agree with him because it was true. It did feel
really good. I was hoping he wouldn't back away because I liked what
was going on.

"Do you jerk off a lot?" he asked.

Liam kept being full of surprises. He kept asking questions I never
expected him to ask. I thought about just lying and telling him I did it
all the time. I mean how would he know if I was lying? But I didn't
know what a good answer was supposed to be and I didn't lie to my
friends and Liam was becoming a new friend for me. So I did the
dorky thing and mumbled.

"Well...um...not...not exactly."

"Which means you don't do it at all, right?" Liam was pretty smart.

"Right," I confessed. I felt like one of the most ignorant boys ever born
right then. I mean here he was Mister Sex Expert and I have to tell
him I never even jerked off. His dick was still pressing against mine
and every time the train jerked any it rubbed against me.

"I guess you gotta learn. I do it all the time. I learned when I was ten
from Dillon."

I was eager to learn what looked like fun and I knew had to feel good.
But I also wondered what there was to learn. I mean from what I
figured out in Andrew's bed all he did was move his hand up and
down his dick. I knew I could do that because I had done that much. I
just had to figure out how long to do it and if I had to touch it in a
special way to get the orgasm feeling. I was hoping maybe Liam
could be the one to show me.

"Have you ever taught anybody how to do it?" I asked. My voice
sounded weird to me. I couldn't get it to come out completely. It was
like I had a sore throat from a cold or something. I could feel my heart
beating really fast and I thought I could even feel my boner beating
just as fast.

"I taught Wolf for one."

"Wolf? Your brother?"  I know it was a dumb question, but Wolf was
only 10, and I've always been good at asking dumb questions.
Garrett was going to be 10 on Tuesday. I wondered if he even knew
he had a dick, but then I remembered what he was like when he saw
me looking in my mirror when I was naked just before we left. Maybe
he knew more than I thought he did.

Liam showed me how cool he was by not telling me how stupid my
question was, at least not exactly. "He's the only Wolf I know."  Liam
pushed his boner up against mine and rubbed a little. I pushed mine
back against me and it felt better than anything I could think of.
Liam's face was right in front of me. I could feel his breath even more.

Liam's hands were on my back just above my butt and they slid down
until they were actually touching and rubbing my naked butt. I never
knew having someone rub your butt could feel so awesome. Without
even thinking I lowered my hands to the small of his back, just above
his butt. The naked skin of his back felt nice, but I was too scared to
go lower and rub his butt like was doing to mine. He was slowly
grinding his hips and our boners were rubbing against each other and
sometimes against our bellies. I'm not sure how, but I was finally able
to talk.

"You said `Wolf for one.' Does that mean there was somebody else?"

"My friend Cody and me showed this other friend Nate how to do it
one day after school. Cody and I did it together a lot and now all three
of us do."

"Um... can you like, you know, show me maybe?"

Liam didn't say anything. He just kept rubbing against me almost
pinning me against the wall. Then the car did a little jerk again and his
cheek brushed against mine. He didn't try to move it back, he just
kept it there. I liked that, too. But I was still waiting for his answer.

"Rub against me," he said, his voice sounding almost like mine did,
like he was out of breath from running a long way. He wrapped his
arms around me in a hug and we rubbed our boners back and forth
and up and down against each other. I was feeling all kinds of things
in my dick and in my belly and even on my face with his cheek right
up against me.

"I feel funny down there," I said at the same time he said, "I'm gonna
cum." My dick felt like I had to pee or do something, maybe even
explode like I kept thinking it was going to do all day. It was a feeling
that was different and funny and weird and I didn't want it to go away.
I heard Liam moan or something and I felt something wet and warm
on my belly just above my boner. I knew it was the sperm stuff I saw
on Andrew the other night, but I didn't have time to think about it
because my boner started bouncing all over the place and all I could
do was say, "Oh...uh...oh...fuuuuck." I wasn't sure where that all
came from, it just came out---I couldn't help myself. I guess that was
what an orgasm was all about and I knew right then I wanted lots and
lots more of those.

"Holy shit, that was intense," Liam said. He backed away and giggled.
"I got cum on you."

"Did I get any on you?" I asked.

"I think you had a dry one."

"Huh?" I had no idea what he meant by that.

"You don't make cum yet. You got a dry cum. It's an orgasm with no
cum.  I don't think you've hit puberty yet and you gotta hit puberty to
be able to cum." Liam was giving me even more information about
sex and I ate it up. "But I bet it felt good."

"It was awesomely good." I didn't know any other way to say how I
felt, but it sounded just right to me.

"I guess I don't need to teach you how to cum," Lima giggled. "But I
can show you some ways I learned how to make it go better and feel
better."

"How?"

He looked at me for a few seconds and then said, "Well, you know
how we got to be able to eat lunch together, right?"

"Right..."

"Well, we can't do this tonight, but tomorrow we can."

"Do what?" I guess Liam thought I could read his mind or something.

"Spend the night together in the same room. Tomorrow we couldn't
get the big family room because of all the changes, so we have two of
the little rooms. Wolf and me get one and my parents get one, so
maybe we can see if Wolf will sleep with Garrett and then you and me
can get the room."

"That sounds like a very cool idea," I said, and it did. My little dick was
kind of twitching up again from me thinking about it and Liam saw it.

"You're getting another boner," he said.

"Yeah. I get them more and more and usually I got no reason to. But
this time I have a reason." Now it was my turn to giggle.

"I almost kissed you when we were so close together," Liam said.

That surprised me. Boys didn't kiss boys, after all.

"Would you have been mad if I did?"

I wasn't sure what I would have thought, so I shook my head no. That
way Liam wouldn't feel bad and if I thought later that me being kissed
by a boy was okay I wouldn't have to look like I was changing my
mind. Dad called that hedging your bets.

Liam grabbed a paper towel and told me it was to wipe myself off
with.

"I don't want to wipe if off," I said without thinking.

That made Liam laugh which made me think I'd said something
dumb. But then he put his hand on the cum and rubbed it along my
right leg and on my balls. "Sometimes I just smear it all over me and
wear it, too. I think it's really cool that you want to wear my cum."

I liked having it on me;  it made me feel grown up in a way. I was
happy that he didn't think it was stupid. I couldn't wait to make my
own cum and have it on me. I could feel some dripping down along
my dick and balls and into my briefs. I was beginning to wonder if I
was getting to be like a pervert or something.

Liam reached down and pulled up his pants and I did the same,
though I wanted to just keep standing there with Liam wondering if I
could get him to kiss me so I could see what it was like. In fact what I
really wanted was for both of us to take off our shirts and stand there
naked together. When we had our pants on and zipped up I opened
the door real slow and peeked out. There was nobody around.

"I'll get out now and go up the stairs then you go out. That way if
somebody pops out of a room or something they probably won't
figure we came out of the same bathroom." Liam liked my idea and I
closed the door behind and headed to the stairs.

While I never thought that much about where I would have my first
orgasm, I guess I figured it would be on a bed or something. I mean
don't people usually do sex stuff on a bed? I know I never figured it
would be standing up in tiny, narrow bathroom on a train with a kid I
just met that morning. And I sure never figured it would be with my
pants down at my ankles and us rubbing our boners together.

I was on the first turn of the steps when I saw somebody coming
down. He was carrying a suitcase and I realized we were coming to
our next stop in Albany. I knew I should back down so he could bring
his suitcase down and that's what I did. It was lucky that Liam and I
didn't come out of the bathroom together or we might have been
caught. When I got to the corridor at the bottom of the steps I saw
Liam come out of the bathroom. Everything looked normal though I
couldn't help but wonder why the guy had a sleeping car room when
he wasn't traveling overnight. Oh well, it was his money and it was
none of my business.

The train stopped in Albany and we went looking for our parents to
talk about Liam's idea of sharing a bedroom and to see if we could do
a switch for dinner like we did for lunch.

By the time we got done talking to my dad, his mom and dad, and to
our brothers, this is what was agreed to so far. First, Liam's mom said
that lunch or even breakfast was one thing, but the family was going
to eat together at dinner. She thought a lot about family and how
important it was, Liam told me. Next, all of our parents said we would
have to talk to our brothers about us sharing a bedroom since they
were involved.

Wolf and Garrett liked the idea of sleeping in the same bed, but they
also thought they should get the bedroom to themselves. We tried to
tell them they were too young to do that but they didn't buy our
argument. So we all went back to the parents and it was agreed that
Liam and I would get the bedroom on the first night on the "California
Zephyr" and Wolf and Garrett would get the second night. The
parents didn't buy our argument that they were too young either.
They thought being ten was old enough. I wanted to argue that
Garrett wouldn't be ten until Tuesday, but at the last minute I realized
that was a pretty stupid argument.

Liam and I ended up being happy we got something instead of
nothing. Besides, sleeping with him in that little bed in the bedroom
on the second day would be pretty cool. The beds in the roomettes
were way too narrow for two people to sleep together in, even kids
like us. They were too small for even littler kids like Wolf and Garrett.

By this time the train got to Eugene which was a smoking and fresh
air stop depending on if you smoked or not, Liam and I figured there
wasn't a lot of fresh air with all the smokers hanging around on the
platform, but they all stayed away from the train doors so we got to
chase each other around a little bit and goof around until we heard
the whistle blow twice. That meant it was time to hurry and get on
board. Like dad said, the train doesn't wait for anybody. You hear that
double whistle and the conductor and then the sleeping car attendant
yell, "All aboard!" you better be getting on the yellow step-stool that
was on the platform and through the door on to the train.

From Eugene the "Coast Starlight" heads up into the mountains and
some really nice scenery. We had a dinner reservation for six which
was about an hour from Eugene so we would see a lot of that
scenery from the dining car. Dad was almost as old-fashioned as
Liam's mom and we had to wear a shirt with a collar for dinner
instead of just a t-shirt. It was okay to wear shorts though so we didn't
have to change pants. I had a blue and white striped polo shirt on. It
was one of my favorite shirts so I was okay with wearing it even if I
thought there was nothing wrong with wearing a t-shirt. I mean it was
okay for breakfast and dinner and besides this was a train dining car
not some fancy restaurant.

But I quit thinking about that before we went to the dining car. Dad
surprised me and Garrett with a special surprise. This was Thursday
and Garrett's birthday wasn't until Tuesday but dad decided to give
him his present early and had a good reason for that. Dad gave him a
Nikon Coolpix camera and now he was ready to take pictures of our
trip. I could feel my bad mood coming back because I was really
jealous of his present. I could see Garrett getting a "I am so lucky and
you are not" smile on his face.

But that feeling didn't last long because I got an even earlier present
since my birthday wasn't until August. I got a Coolpix, too, and now I
was really happy. Garrett's smile went away, and then it came back.
He surprised me with a hug and said now we both had cameras and
he could start taking better pictures than me. I was about to say
something when he started laughing. Garrett had a great laugh and I
could see that he was really happy for me and was just kidding me.
And suddenly I was really, really happy, too.

I turned to dad and gave him a hug and thanked him. "I love you dad
and I'm sorry I was acting like a jerk the last few days."

"Apology accepted. And I learned that maybe in the future I should
consult with you two before making your decisions for you. So I am
sorry for making your decision for you and not thinking of how you
felt."

Just like that any part of my bad mood that was left was gone. And it
wasn't because of the camera and it wasn't because I did the right
thing and apologize, though both of those things were good. No, the
thing that made me happy is that I have a great dad who apologized
to me and said he would listen to me and Garrett. Now we just had to
make sure he stuck to that.

We headed to the dining car. Me and Garrett both took out cameras
and one of the instruction books. Since a table had four seats and
there were three of us, somebody would be at our table. I hoped it
was somebody cool.

And tonight I would be sleeping in a small little bed with Garrett. In
the last couple of days I learned that Andrew learned sex things from
his older brother and that Liam showed sex things to his younger
brother. Yeah, I know dad would be in the bunk above us, but I
couldn't help but wonder what sleeping next to Garrett would be like.
It's not like we've never slept together, it's just that when we did I
never thought about sex. Today, I was thinking about sex.

Next: The Good Tickle
