Touching Hands

Chapter 5

I'm as stealthy as I can be as I walk through the trees toward whatever I saw moving in the distance. I wince at every broken twig and rustled branch, but I somehow manage to make it to the edge of a small clearing. I hide behind a tree and peek to see two boys standing in the middle. Just as I thought - Alex and Max, just in their swim trunks.

Alex makes a little circle with his outstretched arms, showing his younger friend the little hidden spot. Max follows him and looks around in awe. I smile to myself. I remember coming here for the first time - my reaction was pretty much the same. There's something about this place at this time of the year that makes it super beautiful and magical. Mature oak trees surround it from all sides, and a single, lonely tree grows right in the middle. I've only been there a couple of times, because while beautiful, the place is an object of as many stories as jokes. It's known as Lovers' Den, and, since it's within a boy-only campground, coming here with a friend, or even alone, is regarded as suspicious. During my first year, a few boys were expelled for luring two first-timers and making them kiss. I wasn't one of them, for the record. But the thing happened and ever since, the place is considered kinda cursed.

But Alex doesn't seem like he's about to tease his younger friend. It's almost like he's happy that he can finally show it to someone and to see their reaction. His intentions seem clearly pure. Alex isn't an asshole, after all. So I wouldn't be surprised if there was something more to it, remembering how weird they behaved earlier. They don't keep me guessing for too long. After Max is done admiring the view, the boys gravitate to each other and hold hands. Seconds later, they pull each other together and their lips meet in a passionate kiss. My jaw drops and I stop breathing. Now this isn't exactly what I expected. Sure, they were acting a bit strange, but all I expected was some fooling around, maybe even not that. But fuck me! I've never seen anyone so much in love in my life.

They kiss for two full minutes and the way they look at each other is just awful. Fucking lovebirds! I can't believe a popular soccer boy from Dustin's team is crushing on my goofy best friend. And my goofy best friend is crushing back! I'm gonna tease them forever for it when they come out. They start talking, but I'm too far to hear the words. Maybe it's good because they're probably saying something hopelessly cheesy.

Alex takes Max's hand and leads him to the tree. He sits resting his back against it, and invites Max into his lap. They sit like that for many minutes, cuddling, talking and kissing occasionally. I'll be damned.

I'm about to leave them alone, when the energy between them shifts. At first, I can't put my finger on it, but then I see Alex's hand making slow circles around Max's belly, which are getting lower and lower with every round. Max tilts his head back and they kiss deeply, which seems to encourage Alex to go even lower and start stroking Max through his swim trunk. The younger boy's chest starts heaving and he wriggles under his lover's touch.

"Okay, I've seen enough," I think to myself and tell my body to move, but it won't listen. I can't take my eyes off the show. They look so sexy, making out and fondling so close to me.

Ten seconds later, Alex pushes his hands underneath Max's speedos and even from here I can see the boy groan in appreciation. I'm totally transfixed and know I can't leave now. Especially when Max raises his butt and quickly slides off his trunks down his legs and off his feet, Leaving him only in his Air Max shoes and soccer socks. I start sweating all over. Fuck, Alex is so lucky. He got his hands on maybe the cutest boy in my city, and a top scorer for his soccer team. But I knew all that before. I didn't know that Max sports an adult-sized, juicy cock, not much smaller than mine. And the boy isn't even thirteen. Fuck me! Alex hit a jackpot!

I kinda expect them to go all the way right in front of me, but to my surprise, they don't seem like they're in a hurry. Alex keeps stroking Max's dick, and the younger boy squirms in his arms, looking at the hand that's pleasing him. Then they kiss again. They seem much more focused on experiencing one another than on getting off or trying something new. When Alex pinches Max's nipple with his free hand, the young boy closes his eyes and melts, offering his body for his older lover to play with. Maybe I'm not very experienced, but I think Max is just like me. His body must be full of sensitive areas and he loves being touched, fondled and rubbed. Is this why he didn't want to touch my dick? Does he prefer being touched from touching?

I feel that my dick is rock hard and tenting my briefs like a wooden log. I fish it out and start stroking, matching the tempo of Alex's hand. Shit. What am I doing? And I've just given Dustin lessons in respecting other peoples' privacy. What has this camp turned into this year?

The puberty lesson has already horned me up and after a minute, I'm just edging myself, watching the show in amazement. I can see Max whisper something to Alex, and the latter speeds up, now jerking off the soccer boy in passion. It takes less than a minute, and Max's chest pumps up and down quickly, and even from here I see three squirts that splash all over his belly. The sight triggers something in my brain and I bring myself to an orgasm, cumming all over the poor tree that has so generously offered me a good hiding place.

I watch the boys for a couple more minutes, slowly gathering my thoughts. They keep resting against the tree with happy smiles on their faces and holding hands. Max's dick becomes softer and gradually falls onto his right thigh.

Then, Max stands up and says something to Alex, turning his back to me and offering me a great view of his slim butt. Damn. I'm getting jealous here. And the fact that he's wearing his sports shoes and socks makes him look even more naked somehow. But then, Max turns around and starts running my way. I hide behind the tree with a racing heart. Did he see me? Oh god, please, no. This will be the end of me if I'm discovered perving out on my best friend and his tween lover. Max's steps become closer and closer and I hold my breath when he stops on the other side of the tree. For a few seconds, there's complete silence, when I hear a stream of fluid hit the bark. The smell of ammonia hits my nostrils and I hope it doesn't take much longer because I can't breathe.

"Nice butt!" I hear Alex holler from a distance. Max chuckles right next to me and I imagine him shaking it as his piss stream sound changes a pattern. My vision becomes blurry and I'm ready to suffocate to death just to not be discovered. When Max finally finishes, I hear a sound of a flapping skin and he marches away. I exhale, relieved to breathe again. I can't risk another look. I pull myself together and sneak away before I get in real trouble.

***

Back at the pond, I rejoin our group and pretend nothing happened. Twenty minutes later, I see Alex coming out of the woods and joining Dustin and Jon. Alex comes from the direction of the campsite ten minutes after. Smart boys. But no way they can hide their little affair for too long. As for me, I'm gonna keep my mouth sealed and enjoy watching them try.

At dinner, one of the boys asks Alex and Max where they've been all day. I can see Max tense up a bit and look expectantly at his older lover, who says, "me? I went for a hike."

Max hesitates when all eyes turn to him. "Uhm, I took a nap. I didn't sleep well at night."

Bravo. Well rehearsed, but Max isn't a good liar. I'm betting that it's him who's gonna slip it sooner or later - unless they just stop the act and come out. I hope they do. No one's gonna give them shit on my watch.

Jon looks at Max strangely. I bet he knows Max wasn't napping at all. They share a tent after all. But he just looks down and keeps it to himself.

The rest of the evening is uneventful and at ten Dustin and I are back in our tent.

"So," I speak as we start undressing. "How do you rate day four?"

Dustin seems to think about it as he puts his shorts away and tucks his socks in the laundry bag. That bag is already kinda smelly. We should probably seal it better or put it outside.

"The first half? 3/10. The second half is like 9/10."

"I get it that you enjoyed the lesson," I smirk and Dustin nods.

"I wish you were teaching puberty at school."

"Yeah, probably not the best idea."

"So," he gives me a naughty look. "Can I see your sperms now?"

"Not today, Dusty. I'm tired," I say. Dustin opens his mouth to protest but I put my finger up warningly. "If you want me to show you more about puberty, show me that you're listening to my lessons."

Dustin processes that for a few seconds and his face goes from excited to resigned, but also somewhat reconciled.

"I understand, Jacob. Are you sure though?"

"Yes, I am sure."

Dustin looks at his fidgeting fingers. I hope he's not trying to work around rules because it's not gonna work.

"Jacob," he says after a while. "May I masturbate here today, so you can check my sperm?"

"Is that the real reason though?"

Dustin looks really uncomfortable for some reason. "Well... yeah, why you ask?"

"You know, in case there's some other reason. Like, that you're feeling horny."

"A little, yeah. So may I, or may I not?"

I sigh. "Yes, you may. But only tonight."

"Why?"

"Because we're brothers, Dusty. This thing is really intimate, you know? Some things are better saved for someone you love."

"Yeah, I know," Dustin rolls his eyes. "And what if I did... what if we weren't brothers?"

There's something weird in the way he asks it. Doesn't sound like just wondering sort of question.

"I don't know. We probably wouldn't even know each other that much," I say, playing stupid.

"I would still love you if you weren't my brother, Jacob."

I squint my eyes. Shit, I'm so not ready for this conversation. Gotta call home first thing in the morning.

"Dusty, stop. You'll always be my brother no matter what. Okay? Now, let's make you cum and go to sleep, okay?"

Dustin gives me a sad smile. His face is such an enigma sometimes. I can't believe I used masturbating him as a distraction from an even more uncomfortable subject.

"Ouch! Ooh, ow!" Dustin cries as he takes off his t-shirt.

"What happened?"

"My back. It all burns."

"Let me see."

Dustin slowly pulls his shirt through his head, revealing his sunburnt skin that is almost red at his shoulders.

"Oh no, Dusty... Mom will kill me!"

"Ughhh," he groans when I touch his tender skin. "Why does it hurt so much?"

"You got a sunburn. Shit, Dusty... why didn't you put on sunscreen?" I ask, knowing well that it was my responsibility.

"I never needed it. Mom made me put it on every time but I was never sunburnt!"

"Oh my god, Dusty, you're so dense sometimes," I say and start looking for an after-tan cream among my cosmetics. "You're like all those people who think they don't need vaccines because they never get sick. It's because you always used sunscreen that you never got sunburnt."

"Sorry, Jacob," Dustin squeals and takes off his white briefs, leaving him naked. I take my place behind his back and get some of the cream on my palm.

"Now this is gonna sting, so if you wanna play with yourself for some distraction, it might be a good time"

Dustin obediently grabs his cocklet between his thumb and index finger and starts stroking. He hisses when I squirt some cream on his back.

"Uhh, icy."

His skin feels so hot under my fingers. Shit, I'm so mad at myself. I shouldn't have let it happen. He moans and grunts, but maybe it's from the feeling he's giving himself. It's so surreal, but it also feels right to be with him like this. I want to be with him like this. I can pretend I'm being mature and responsible only for so long. I make sure every inch of his skin is covered and reach for his groin.

"Can I?" I ask.

"Yeah," he says and removes his hand to let mine take over. My fingers are still slippery from the cream and on a second thought I apply some more before going back to work. "Shit, Jacob, so good." He leans into me with his closed eyes and lets me work.

"Remember when you were too shy to take your clothes off under the shower?" I ask, jerking him off. "What happened?"

"I don't know. It wasn't because of you. I was afraid someone else would come in."

"So you don't mind me seeing you?"

"How does it look? Ohhhhh," he moans when I rub his smooth balls. Then I grab his 4-inch circumcised shaft again and stroke it, marveling at the feeling of jerking off someone else for the first time. I think back to watching Alex and Max go at it in the same position. How uncanny.

"I'm close, Jacob."

"Okay, I'll speed up a bit."

"Thanks. Can't wait to show you my cum."

As promised, I speed up as much as I can without hurting him. Dustin lays back completely, resting his head on my shoulder and our cheeks touch. Shit, why does it feel so intimate and so good? The tent is filled with the sounds of two quickening breaths and my fist slapping about his almost hairless pubic area. Suddenly, I hear Dustin hold his breath and in the next second, a few watery drops squirt from his dick to land on his belly and drool down my fingers. My little bro pants as his rocket continues twitching in my head, but there's nothing more coming out.

"Oh god," he moans, shaking and spasming.

"Lay down, Dustin," I say and move from behind him so he can lay flat on the ground. I scoop some of the seed he shot and inspect it. As I thought, it is still watery and mostly transparent but a few of the first drops do look familiarly whitish and gooey.

"How does it look?" he asks.

"Just as it should at your age. Let's see in a few months - it should start getting some more white color."

"Awesome! Can't wait."

"Now, let's go to sleep and hope the skin on your back goes back to normal. If I get in trouble for that, you'll know my revenge."

Dustin chuckles. He thinks it's a joke. He should pray he doesn't have to find out. "Thank you for today, Jacob. I love you."

"Over the last few days you've said I love you to me more than in your whole life."

"Maybe I'd say it more often if you paid more attention to me."

"When did you start being such a smart ass?" I ask and pinch his ear playfully. "Now, clean the mess and go to bed. Wipe your dick well. You don't want it to be sticky all night."

"Geez, I know," he says and starts cleaning up and getting ready to bed with a frown.

"I love you too, Dusty," I say after a while.

He turns around just for a second to expose his teeth in his bratty grin and he goes into his sleeping bag. I do the same - after getting naked. After cumming to Max and Alex doing sexy stuff, I feel satisfied and a little sleepy. But the thrill makes me stay awake for at least an hour to see if Dustin has anything planned for me today. And sure, he does.

"Jacob?" I hear after having pretended to be asleep for a while.

I'm fairly calm and curious as my bro gets on his fours, unzips my bag and takes my dick in his hand. Here we go again. Dustin repositions, laying on his belly and with his face in my crotch.

"Hey," he whispers as he slowly strokes me to hardness. "I have so much to tell you... It's just me today again but..." he says and stops abruptly.

I'm pretty good at keeping my breath even at this point but my heart starts beating faster. Then I hear sniffing. Dustin examines my dick from all sides and whiffs intensely, his nose traveling from my balls all the way to the dick head. He takes it between his lips for just two seconds and then tastes it with his lips and tongue.

"He made you cum without me!" Dustin hisses in outrage and starts groaning with pain. "Why do I still have to share you with him? Like he doesn't know you're mine," he complains. "Never mind. Guess it's fair. You know what? I was trying to tell him about us today. But he's always so serious, mature and boring about this stuff." Dustin pauses and starts licking my balls and dick with new-found passion. Fuck, this kid knows how to make it feel incredible. "Uhh... you have to stay my little secret for a while."

Dustin takes me back into my mouth and starts sucking me like a little pro he is. I instinctively flex my buttcheeks, matching his rhythm to make my dick slide an extra half inch along his busy tongue. Luckily he doesn't seem to notice or find it weird. He's still in control, not trying to make me cum, but just giving me one of the greatest massages I've had in my life.

I don't know how many minutes pass. Fifteen? Maybe twenty? I'm almost startled when Dustin lets go and I feel cool air touch my wet dick head.

"I don't think he likes me like that, little buddy," he says a bit bitterly. "But it's fine. It's fine. He's a good brother. Anyway, I forgot to tell you. I'm throwing you a little party tomorrow. Yay!" he giggles quietly. "I will be there, of course, also Jon and... well, it's a surprise, you'll see. No, not Max. Max can't make it. He hardly has time to hang out anymore."

Dustin pauses his silent conversation with my dick and pensively wings it from left to right like a flagpole.

"I think he has a boyfriend," he says slowly. "And he doesn't want to cheat on him. But don't tell anyone. It's a secret. Yeah, just like you and me."

He goes back to licking me for a while before saying, "I wonder when did he have time to jerk you off today... Shit, probably when he told me and Jon to leave him for some business back there. Goddamn liar. But you know what I can do now, right?" he says and goes back to sucking me.

This time he's working to make me cum. I can feel it immediately. He works my penis in his hand while sucking on it and playing with my balls. It's like he's operating a machine he knows all about - pushing just the right buttons to make it do what he wants. And there's fucking nothing I can do to prevent my orgasm building up quickly and powerfully after all the foreplay. Even though I'm panicking a little, knowing well what he's about to do.

My orgasm hits me like a falling oak tree and I push my hips upwards, burying my dick far into Dustin's mouth. I moan and even in the darkness I can see his small adam's apple jerk every time he swallows my hot seed, squeezing out every last drop and leaving me in complete bliss.

He releases my dick with a pop. I can't believe he swallowed all of it. It's so weird cumming with leaving no mess whatsoever.

What has just happened... fuck... I'll have all night to think about all he said and did because I doubt I'll be able to sleep much.

"Yummy," Dustin says to himself and then crawls up to my face like he did the last time. I close my eyes and feel his breath as he stares down at me from above. I'm getting nervous. He just stays like that, watching me and suddenly all my face starts tingling and I want to scratch myself.

But then Dustin lowers himself onto me and I feel his naked body on me and his lips on mine. He kisses me very gently, barely parting my lips. Why does his body feel so hot, though? I don't want it to stop! A moment later, Dustin's hand slides down my body. He grabs my dick again and aims it at his boy hole. I can feel its heat on my dick. He uses my dickhead to rub his crack, slowly increasing pressure and I tense up. No way he's gonna...

But then he stops and raises on his fours. "I was just kidding. Sweet dreams, Jacob," he whispers with a chuckle and retreats to his sleeping bag.
