Chapter 8

Over the next couple of weeks, on the surface, things returned to normal. It was still too soon for any of them, though, to have realized that their lives had forever changed on that Friday evening. Becky and Jimmy officially considered Jenny a part of the family; Janelle had more respect for Seth than she had for any of the guys that Jenny had ever dated, and she hoped that they would end up with the happily ever after that both she and her sister had missed. Seth and Jenny didn't realize that that potential child had solidified a bond between them that people only get one, maybe two, real shots at creating in a lifetime.

 

Of course, the two of them noticed that Matt and Nick were on their way to being more than friends. While they didn't know details of the agreement the two had made, since that was something just between them, they could tell that Nick was working to quit smoking for a reason, and Matt was praising him at every step down the road he made to being a non-smoker.

 

On the night of Nick's birthday, Matt spent most of the afternoon cooking dinner at his parents' house. When everyone got there at six, Seth joked about how it actually smelled good. Linda and Ron admitted that they were worried, but he seemed to be determined. Things also didn't smell as bad in the house as they'd thought. When dinner was ready at seven, they all sat in the formal dining room and enjoyed what Matt had prepared. Becky raved about just how good it was, even though it was just a simple alfredo with pasta. Janelle, who'd come up from Jackson just for dinner, without thinking, said that it was as good as Patrice's.

 

Realizing what she said, she looked across the table to Nick, who was smiling, remembering how it was what she'd always fixed him for his birthday. The thing was, in his mind, it was as good as his mother's had always been. It was a happy memory for him, though, and he continued to think about it even as the topic was changed by everyone at the table to something less pensive.

 

After dinner, they did cake and gifts, just like every other birthday. Janelle had brought the cake up from Jackson, from a little bakery close to the office where she worked from where she got all the cakes she'd ever ordered. They were, in her humble opinion, the best in the whole of Mississippi. Everyone agreed as they sat in the living room enjoying it and a steaming mug of coffee, after which, they gave Nick gifts that he wasn't expecting. Not knowing what to get him, Linda and Becky, on their own behalf, as well as that of their husbands, got him a couple of gift cards. They were just prepaid visa cards, but Nick treasured them because they were from the heart. Janelle wrote him a letter, as she'd always done for his birthday, and gave him some cash. Jenny got him a new cell phone, since the one he had was pretty much falling apart, purchasing it at the retail price so that Nick wouldn't have to extend his contract. Matt and Seth, though, waiting until very last to present him with their gift, which was an all expenses paid weekend of nothingness in the Big Easy. As he shook his head, Seth told him about this bar that Matt had made him go to in the French Quarter where the dancers, when you tipped them, let the patrons go in for change. When asked how he knew that by the Moms, Matt blushed, as Seth reminded everyone in the room that his best friend was a gay guy.

 

That weekend, Nick, along with Matt, Seth, and Jenny, piled into Matt's car and drove from Eudora to New Orleans, a five hour, or so, drive that would ultimately land them in one of the nicest hotels that Seth could afford to pay for half of. They had a little suite with two bedrooms, and a sitting room. The place was so opulent, so 'Old World' that night was reminded of a hotel where they'd stayed in Rome when they were children and their mothers took them on what they'd previously held as the trip of their lifetimes.

 

That night, while Jenny volunteered to be their DD, the three guys drank as much as they could consume. They went to the particular bar that Seth had told them all about. Nick admired the guys there, as they were unbelievably hot, but he found himself sizing them up. Unlike had always been the case, though, they were not compared to Corey, but rather to Matt, who, it seemed, only had eyes for him as well. After leaving that place, they went to a second bar, where Jenny and Seth danced as Matt and Nick sat at a high-top table and laughed at Seth's drunk ass trying to dance with Jenny, who was completely sober but having a good time, none the less.

 

They returned to the hotel room that evening, and Seth and Jenny quickly went into their room in the suite. The other room had two double beds, of which Nick had claimed the one closest to the window, while Matt took the other. As they prepared for bed, there was a little bit of flirting and a whole lot of mutual teasing going on. After taking separate pisses, Matt made Nick turn around as he got ready for bed. The whole time, Matt was giving him a play-by-play. As each article of clothing was removed from his body, he threw it so that Nick could see that, by the time the covers were being turned down, Matt was completely naked.

 

He rolled over, pretending to be going to sleep as he listened to all the sounds of Nick pulled clothes over and down his body. Even though he wasn't looking at him, Matt could feel that Nick was gazing right at him. He could feel that cockily confident smile like a laser tearing holes into the flesh of his back. It was exciting to think that this man, whom he thought was so beautiful on so many levels, was staring right at him.

 

A moment later, Matt heard him turning back the covers and turning onto his side as he climbed in. The bright room was suddenly obscured in complete darkness as he reached over and turned off the super-bright lamp on the table separating their beds. Matt rolled over on his bed and looked in Nick's general direction. Even though they'd drawn the curtains so that absolutely no light would come into the room, Matt, like Nick, could tell that the man across from him was still wide awake. It was almost as if he could feel his thoughts as much as his presence.

 

"You still awake?" Matt whispered.

 

"Yes..." Nick answered.

 

"Me too..."

 

"Yeah... Little Nick is keeping me from going to sleep," Nick answered, hoping immediately after saying that that Matt wouldn't think he was weird.

 

"So I'm not the only one," Matt said as Nick smiled.

 

"What are you gonna do about it?" Nick inquired.

 

"If I wasn't sharing the room for the evening, I would roll over onto my back, throw the covers away, and make a mess in what little chest hair I have," Matt answered, honestly. "You?"

 

"Same..."

 

Matt extended his right arm and turned on the lamp between them. They took a second to adjust to let their eyes adjust to the bright light that had, literally in a flash, overtaken the darkness of the room. Matt looked at Nick as he lay there, the top of his chest showing that he'd not manscaped in a couple of days. Nick could see Matt, with his almost frat-boy like shaggy hair on the top of his head. Each of them had on arm below the pillow on which their head rested; each of them had their other free as Matt lay on his left side and Nick on his right.

 

"Are we kidding anyone?" Matt asked.

 

"Other than ourselves?" Nick returned quickly. There was no immediate response, as Matt knew that he was right.

 

Taking the first move, Matt threw back his covers and sat up on the edge of his bed, showing himself, exposing everything that he was to this man that he was falling for even harder the second time round. Nick had seen him naked before, but it was never like that. He'd always thought Matt was cute, but, in that moment, he was hot. He was willing to give himself to Nick, and he who still found himself lying beneath the covers felt, honestly, the same way.

 

"It's time we had the other talk, the one we've been avoiding for a while," Matt looked at him.

 

"OK..." Nick said, his tone saying that he agreed with him.

 

"Nick... This whole friends thing isn't going to work for me much longer."

 

"What do you mean?"

 

"After I see you, I'm on top of the world. When I'm lying in my bed at night, I find myself unable to sleep because I'm thinking about you. I wonder if you're OK. I think about how nice it would be to just snuggle up to you and fall asleep. It's beyond sexual thoughts for me, Nick. I am falling for you, and I'm not sure how you feel, and it's making me insane."

 

Nick spent several minutes rattling off things that he found attractive about Matt, but only a handful of them were related to anything physical. "Do you think I would have said that about asking you on a date if I wasn't serious?" Nick wanted to know after he finished, looking at Matt as Matt looked away, having been drained by just explaining that he still had feelings for this man.

 

Matt took a deep breath. "I know you wouldn't have said it if you weren't serious," he told Nick.

 

Nick sat up on the side of his bed after removing the covers that kept Matt from having the same view of Nick that he had of Mr. Harper. They looked at each other, knowing that the other was as sober as he'd been when they got to New Orleans. It was Nick's turn to make a move, and he did by reaching his arm across the small distance between their beds. Matt took it as the two held their hands, in the peace of that moment, for some time.

 

"I could so make out with you right now," Matt confessed as they looked at each other. Nick only smiled, though, and gently tugged on Matt's arm, forcing him to his feet and over to Nick.

 

"Then make out with me. I don't bite..." Nick grinned.

 

Smiling back, Matt leaned down from his standing position and kissed Nick on the lips. Slowly, their mouths opened and their tongues found their way into almost a competition with the other's. Their kissing only stopped a moment later as Nick moved back onto his bed, with Matt following him as the two lay beside each other to continue their moment. Nick was on his back, and Matt was on his right side. With his left hand, though, he explored every part of the exterior of Nick's still muscular body. It was familiar territory, but territory that hadn't been explored for some time. It felt new, though, like he was touching someone not just that he found himself physically attracted to, but who also excited every part of his Pisces self.

 

For Nick, the moment was huge. Matt's body pressed against his, with this man's huge, strong hand touching parts of him that longed for the attention and appreciation that only Matt seemed able to give, Nick felt his heart racing unlike anything before. Never had he been so close to a person as he felt he was with Matt right then.

 

It wasn't long before their physical connection progressed even further as the two of them found themselves making love. There was no fucking between them right then, and what they were doing right then was making love. It was the first time that both of them had ever experienced all the sensations that came along with the melding of two bodies, two souls, two worlds.

 

There room was on the corner of a building, so there were no neighbors for them to disturb. They didn't count on the fact that the walls of the suite itself were as thin as they were. As they enjoyed each other, the sounds of their love carried throughout the suite, waking Jenny from a deep sleep.

 

"Seth..." she whispered as she smiled.

 

"Huh? Babe? You OK?" he inquired, instantly.

 

"I'm fine..." she answered. "Just listen for a second."

 

"Holy shit!" Seth said, in his regular volume. "At least I try to be quiet!" he joked.

 

"Bullshit!" Jenny said as she snuggled up to him, letting the lovers have their moment as they slipped back to sleep.

 

By the time Nick and Matt were finished, their bodies were covered in sweat, and they were so tired that they could barely move. Eventually, they had to force themselves to climb from the bed to get cleaned up, and, at four in the morning, they found themselves standing beneath the heat of the flow of water, taking a moment to clean each other's bodies as they made each other smile, laugh, appreciate the man standing with him even more.

 

On Sunday morning, they woke up early and got checked out of the hotel and started along their route back to Eudora. They got to Jackson in the early afternoon, stopping at Janelle's for lunch before heading up the highway to return to the town they all called home. Nick and Matt first dropped off Seth and Jenny at Seth's place before heading over to Nick's for a little bit of alone time themselves before Matt had to go home and get ready for the next morning and they both had to get ready for the week. Everyone who came in contact with the two of them knew that something was up, but Seth and Jenny were being tight lipped about it all to let them have a modicum of privacy.

 

Every afternoon that week, Matt was waiting on Nick when he got home from school. While they weren't all about the sex that they were so very much enjoying, it was for that alone, really. It was for the company, the comraderie, the joy that each of them got from just seeing the other. Their lives as friends weren't over just yet, but their life as lovers was just beginning.

 

*********

 

The month of October ended up being a busy month for everyone. Nick was especially stressed by midterms, for it had been a long time since he'd been forced to really, truly, study something. Once things quieted for him, though, they just started to get going for Matt. In the middle of the month, the push to select a song for Senior Concert was made even harder by the fact that he and Seth, in a random free moment between them, had talked about something that would cause that night to impact all their lives.

 

As the month came to a close, they both found themselves ready for the celebration of Halloween. While Seth and Jenny had decided several weeks earlier what they were going to dress up as, Matt and Nick were left scratching their heads. Do they do the whole "theme costume" thing? Or would it be best for them to go as two separate things. A million thoughts filled their minds. Some of them were quite innocent, such as the 'sexy cop' and the 'sexy firefighter', but a few were a little more out there, such as Jenny's suggestion that they dress as Adam and Steve, complete with flesh-tone briefs and fig leaves covering, as she put it, their naughty bits.

 

It wasn't until the first part of the week before the holiday that they shuffled through a million ideas until they came up with the one that would work best. They would dress up as each other. Each of them would take how they saw the other and then dress accordingly. On Wednesday, they spent half the afternoon trying to figure out what the other one would wear, and on Thursday, as they assembled, dressed nicely in khakis and button-down shirts, to hang out with fellow students, alumni, and patrons of the university at the Square, they told everyone of their idea. Becky looked at Linda, who smiled.

 

"You are my favorite child," Linda said as she hugged Matt and then Nick. They found out later, from Jimmy, who'd consumed one too many bourbons and cokes as he and Ron talked to a couple of their fraternity brothers that had come to town for the game, that Ron and Linda had done the same thing the year before they were married. For the two of them, Ron and Linda, it was as though history had an odd way of repeating itself.

 

On Friday, after Nick went to class, Matt went to his dad's office to get the master key that would open Nick's door. As he was on the phone with Jenny, he found an old pair of fatigues that Nick kept, for one reason or another, in a box in the closet. There was also a pair of black combat boots that Nick hadn't worn in a while, since the Marines had adopted all tan colored boots after the beginning of the war on terror. In his drawer, there were several tan colored t-shirts with the Marine Corps logo on them that Matt hoped would fit him well enough.

 

To Matt, that uniform was a symbol of strength. His grandfather had been a strong man, in part because of that uniform, and Nick was, in his mind, the strongest person, still living, in his world. He hoped that Nick would pick up on the fact that Matt saw him as the kind of man that could do anything, including moving mountains if that were what it took.

 

He left Nick's apartment just before Nick was out of class and headed toward Seth's place. Thankfully for him, Nick's chemistry teacher was a bit of blowhard that day and had kept them a few minutes longer than normal. Nick walked home quickly, afterwards, and got his car. He drove to Ron's office and got his key to their house so that he could do what Matt had done a little while earlier. He got to Matt's house, learning from Ron that his son planned to go to Seth's house to get ready for the evening. With that, Nick went to Wellsgate and climbed to the third floor of the house. Matt's room was a fucking mess, as things were scrambled all over the place. Dirty clothes were thrown, all willy nilly, around the room, and his bed needed desperately to be made.

 

He stepped into the closet only to find the tuxedo that Matt wore to perform in. He pulled off his pants and put them on to see if they would fit. Thankfully, they did, as Matt hadn't yet had them altered. He quickly took them off and put his jeans back on. Hanging them back on the hanger, he hung them on a peg and grabbed the jacket. It was too small, which shot the whole idea to hell. That is, it shot the idea of wearing his tux to hell. Walking back into Matt's room, he called Ron, who said that he knew the person who owned a local formal wear shop. Ron said that he would call a friend as Nick said that he was on his way into town. As their call ended, Nick grabbed a pair of Matt's boxers and a t-shirt. He was bound to wear something of Matt's that evening, even if it was only something he was going to see as Matt was disrobing him. Oh yeah. He was planning on getting some.

 

As he went into town, he went to the place that Ron had told him to visit only to find a little gay man standing there waiting on him. The guy joked with Nick for a second before showing him to a little room for his fitting. He left with a tuxedo in a plastic bag. "Now. I'm only doing this cause you're Matt's boyfriend. I hope you know," the guy told him.

 

"Dating that awesome man definitely has perks," Nick commented as he signed the credit card slip.

 

"I'm sure it does!" the guy smiled as he handed Nick the tuxedo in a long plastic bag in which he'd placed the suit. He handed Nick another bag that had a shirt, bowtie, and vest, along with a pair of shoes that went along with it.

 

As he went to his place to get ready for the evening, he thought about why he'd chosen that particular outfit. Matt was a classy guy, but he wasn't snobby, as most of the rich people he encountered were. He was sweet, nice, funny. He was a smartass of the highest caliber. He was a walking contradiction, in a good way, much as Nick would be in a tuxedo.

 

To appease their gays, Seth and Jenny agreed to get ready in separate places. After work, Jenny went to Nick's house after walking back to their place to get her car, into which she'd already put her costume for the evening. Seth walked home around 5:30 and into an apartment to find Matt sitting on the sofa in a pair of boxers. Seth sat beside him, and the two, for a while, enjoyed a conversation unlike they'd had in a while.

 

Before they went in to get ready for the evening, they had a shot. After Seth finished his shower, with a towel wrapped around his waist, they had another one. Then he sneaked into the room to get ready for the evening as Matt took another shot before going in to dress in the desert camouflage uniform that he'd "borrowed" from Nick's house. He was finished well before Seth was, who found himself in a difficult position. Matt and he got a good laugh as part of his Superman costume wasn't fitting just as it probably should have.

 

Jenny was still sober on the other side of town as she and Nick got ready. It didn't take her the same amount of time to dress as Wonder Woman as it did Nick to look just right in the tuxedo that he'd chosen to wear that evening. She joked with him that she'd gone out and gassed up the invisible jet in the time that it had taken him to put on a suit. He announced that he was having problems with his bowtie, and, with that, she walked into the bedroom, dragged over something that she could stand on so that she could help him out. He asked where she'd learned to do that, and she just smiled, reminding him that, during Freshman Year, she'd worked at a restaurant that required it as part of the uniform. When he was ready, she joked about how he had a minute to get his shit together before she was leaving.

 

It seriously didn't take him long to get everything ready and join her in the living room. She smiled as they walked from the apartment and to her car. One of Nick's neighbors in the next building made a cat call in her direction. Jenny didn't miss a beat as she stopped, walked over to him and put her hand on his crotch. "My boyfriend's about twice that big!" she declared. "And," she mentioned as he blushed and his friends tried not to laugh at him right then, "he's got a tongue like you wouldn't believe."

 

"Can I at least take a picture so that I have something to jack off to later?" the drunken guy asked.

 

"Of course," she said, posting as he (and most of the guys there) grabbed their camera phones and snapped a shot of her. "Night guys!" she said as the two of them quickly walked to her car and climbed in.

 

"You are insane sometimes," Nick noted as she started it up and backed from the space.

 

"I'm insane all the time, but thanks for noticing!" she said as she pulled from her complex.

 

It didn't take them long to get across town to the place that Jenny shared with a man that was, to her, unlike any other on the planet. She opened the door, as she always did, and set her purse on the coffee table.

 

"SETH!" she cried, her voice carrying through the apartment.

 

"Hey babe," he said from their room. "Can you come help with this costume? I'm having an issue?"

 

"You have a boner, don't you?" she inquired.

 

"Yes..." he said as Jenny and Nick could both hear him smiling.

 

"You're so cute," she told him as she pulled down a bottle of rum and began gathering things for a drink that she was preparing for the evening.

 

"You haven't even seen me yet. I look good."

 

"So this guy was flirting with me as we were leaving Nick's," Jenny told him.

 

"Oh yeah?"

 

"I told him you were twice as big as him with a better tongue. Then I let him take a picture of me to masturbate to later!"

 

"That's my girl!" Seth said as she shook her head and Nick laughed. "Ya know, babe, I am so lucky to have a girlfriend as hot as you."

 

"Yes you are!" Jenny smiled, in her own way, echoing his sentiment. "So where's your gay?"

 

"He's in his room," Seth called back.

 

"I'll be out in a minute. I'm having a problem with my costume," Matt told him.

 

"Want me to help?" Nick asked as Jenny pulsed the blender.

 

"Actually... no... I will need some help taking it off later, though," Matt told him.

 

"Me, too," Nick yelled back as Seth came into the kitchen from their bedroom.

 

"TA DA!" Seth said as he stepped into the room with Seth and Jenny, dressed as Superman. "How do I look?"

 

"You look good," Nick said.

 

"Did you stuff your codpiece?" Jenny asked, smiling as she handed him a drink.

 

"Thank you, Nick. And maybe tonight, I'll show you," he said to Jenny, "that I'm not."

 

"Is that a threat or a promise?" Jenny asked as they shared a joking face and before Seth planted a kiss on her cheek.

 

"MATT!!!" Seth yelled through the apartment.

 

"TWO MINUTES!"

 

"...and if you're not out, I'm sending Nick in there to hurry your ass up."

 

"Like that'll make me hurry!" Matt joked.

 

It wasn't a moment later before he was ready to work out of the room, dressed in the uniform. When he and Nick saw each other, they didn't know what to say at first. Nick looked great in a tux, better than Matt ever thought he did. Nick wanted to make some joke about Don't Ask Don't Tell, but he couldn't find it in him.

 

"I think they're dumbstruck," Seth commented to Jenny.

 

"Ya think?" she turned, giving him a smartass look.

 

"Wow..." Matt said. "Can I fix your tie?"

 

"Yeah," Nick said as Matt walked over and adjusted his bowtie so that it was straight and perfect. "You know you're supposed to tuck the bottom of the pants into the boots, right?"

 

"Really?"

 

"Yes sir," Nick told him. "Damn..."

 

"What?"

 

"I just realized that you're wearing my stuff," Nick told him.

 

"Yeah. Is that OK?"

 

Nick smiled and leaned in to tell him a secret. "I've got your boxers on."

 

"Really?" Matt smiled.

 

"That cool?"

 

"NICE!" Matt leaned in and kissed him.

 

"You been starting the party already?"

 

"My breath that bad?" Matt asked.

 

"It's a little strong," Nick told him.

 

"Shit," Matt said as Seth and Jenny took their drinks into the living room.

 

"It's nothing," Nick smiled. "I'm still gonna make out with you. Oh yeah," Nick said, wrapping his arms around Matt's waist. "In fact, I kinda want to start right now, if that's cool with you?"

 

"Yes. It is," Matt smiled as he leaned in for a kiss.

 

"EWWW!!!!" Seth and Jenny said before they both started snickering.

 

"What?" Matt broke their kiss to ask Matt. "Don't act like you've never made out in the kitchen?"

 

"Well... let's just say," Seth started as he and Jenny sat on the sofa, "that Jenny and I had to Clorox that counter y'all are leaning on a few weeks ago."

 

"Right then!" Nick said as he leaned up, kissing Matt once more.

 

They left Seth's place a little while later, heading toward a party a couple of blocks away that was being hosted by one of Matt's friends in the choir. Sherice, the hostess, had been one of Matt's friends since her first day on the Concert Singers when he was sophomore. Dressed as Foxxy Cleopatra, Beyoncé's character from Austin Powers: Goldmember, she took an instant liking to Nick. Seth, as an honorary member of the group, was welcomed as usual, and Jenny was treated just like Nick was by those friends that Matt had made over the years.

 

After Sherice's "Pre-Party" was over, most of those present walked their way up the road to Blind Jim's. Jenny just about beat the shit out of a girl that touched Seth, as she put it, inappropriately. Matt and Nick, as the evening went on, were so drunk that they actually took a few minutes on the dancefloor with each other. It was so odd, for neither of them were dancers. Both of them went to bars for the alcohol and little more.

 

At around one in the morning, both men had finally had enough of their evening. Jenny and Seth had already left, so it was just them walking along Harrison Avenue, the road that ran beside the bar, toward Seth's condo. It would have been too much for them to go back to Nick's, since neither of them could walk very well. As they sneaked inside, they tried to be quiet, as the house was dark. Matt locked the door as Nick said something that made him laugh so hard that he almost peed himself. They managed down the hallway into Matt's room, shushing each other as they walked past the room being shared by the two people who knew them better than they even knew themselves and entered into Matt's room.

 

They quietly shut the door and turned on the overhead light. Nick began kissing him as he turned him toward the bed. Within a moment, he pulled back from kissing Matt, looking him into the eye a moment before pushing him onto the double bed. Without a word, he pulled up Matt's leg and began removing the first boot.

 

"You are so fucking hot," Nick told him as he looked down as Matt watched him.

 

"Thank you," Matt smiled as Nick just dropped the boot onto the floor. Its sound was deep as it echoed through the room.

 

"And tonight," Nick started, "you have looked so very, very hot."

 

"Oh yeah? And you haven't?"

 

"Oh. I have," Nick answered, cockily as the other boot was taken from Matt's feet. "I looked damn good. In fact, if you and I weren't together, I could have easily picked up at least one guy, and maybe more."

 

"But you chose to come home with me?"

 

Nick smiled. "I chose to come home with you," he said as he reached down to undo the belt that Matt was wearing and then undoing the button and zippers that held them around his waist. As he returned to standing, Matt lifted his hips so that Nick could return to his upright position. Matt was left, a moment later, naked from the waist down. "I see you're already ready for me," Nick continued to grin.

 

"Yeah..." Matt noted with his own wicked smile.

 

"What if I want to top tonight?" Nick asked as he took off the bowtie and vest that he'd been wearing.

 

"That's kinda where my mind was going to, too. To you topping that is," Matt told him as Nick carefully undid each of the buttons on his shirt. As he threw them onto the floor, Matt continued, "That shirt's never gonna fit right again."

 

"Cause of my big muscles?" Nick said as he flexed his arms, driving Matt insane as he wanted to just bend up and kiss his round, defined biceps and forearms.

 

"Cause of your nice and big muscles!" Matt responded as he took one of his feet and rubbed it into Nick's crotch. "I like this muscle, too."

 

"I can tell," Nick said as he undid his belt and the pants. Pushing them, they fell to around his ankles, revealing the boxers that he'd chosen.

 

Matt laughed out loud as Nick stood there in a relatively novelty pair that read, across the front, 'Enter at your own risk'. "That's like the funniest pair of underwear I own."

 

"I thought you might appreciate that I wore these," Nick told him as he leaned up to remove the olive colored t-shirt that he'd worn out that evening. Nick also took the shirt off that he'd been wearing and threw it onto the floor before climbing onto the bed. Reaching into the front of the boxers, he pulled out that thing which made him a man tugged on it a couple of times. He straddled Matt's midsection. "Now, Grunt, suck this dick."

 

"Sir, yes sir," Matt said as he complied with Nick's instructions.

 

"That feels so good," Nick told him after a moment, his eyes closed and his head falling back as he stood on his knees.

 

They continued like for a second until Nick moved back and stood again beside the bed, letting the boxers fall to the ground. He repositioned Matt on the bed before lying on his back. "Continue," he said as he put his arms behind his head, lacing his fingers, and allowing Matt to do his thing. After a few minutes, Nick took his left hand from behind his head and sucked his index finger for a second before reaching back and playing a bit with Matt's tight hole, prepping him for what was going to soon be happening to him. Matt moaned, and Nick could as much feel it as hear it.

 

"So how do you want me, sir?" Matt smiled as he came up for air.

 

"I'll let you choose," Nick smiled as Matt temporarily moved from the bed, stepping into the bathroom for a couple of necessary supplies. When he returned, Matt lay on his back. With his right hand, he reached over and took Nick, wrapping his hand around him and squeezing a couple of times as he stretched and tugged.

 

"Put this on," Matt told him as he handed Nick the gold package in which the condom was wrapped.

 

"K..." Nick complied, taking it from Matt and opening it with his teeth.

 

"That's kinda sexy," Matt joked as Nick reached down and rolled it down his own manhood.

 

"Just wait. Give me a couple of minutes, and I'll show you sexy, Grunt," Nick winked at him, following it with a huge smile. A moment later, he got on his knees and moved to the area between Matt's legs. Taking the bottle of lube that Matt had brought from the bathroom, he squeezed a little bit of it into his hands before making sure that both his manhood and Matt's asshole were sufficiently lubed and ready for the action that was about to go on between them.

 

In just a moment, Nick was slowly inserting himself into Matt's body. Matt rarely got fucked. They each preferred the other position, but they were so enamored with the other that it was fun to let go of all inhibitions and trust the other completely with both his mind and his body.

 

Before either or them realized, Nick was going to town, pounding against Matt's body unlike he'd ever done with Matt before. Matt was breathing deeply, not thinking of the pain and only allowing himself to enjoy the pleasure. For the most part, his eyes were closed, but when he did open them, he could see the sweat on Nick's body glistening. Every muscle on his body was flexing and contracting as he worked his way toward a truly glorious conclusion. Matt's legs were wrapped around his waist, and with his feet, he could feel the little bit of soft fur that covered his ass.

 

"Nick..." Matt said between moans and groans. "Nick...I'm about to..." Matt said as he realized that, without touching himself, that he was about to orgasm. "OH GOD!" he proclaimed in his regular voice as every muscle on his body contracted at almost the same time and as the orgasm shot from his body.

 

He clamped down on Nick, who was still trying to himself closer to that point where Matt was. It didn't take but a second before he lost it all, moaning deeply as he pointed his face to the ceiling. Coming back from his high, Nick looked at Matt, who was smiling as he lay there.

 

Consciously, weeks before they'd made the decision to progress their relationship beyond friendship, but it was that moment that they learned to trust each other enough to just let the last of their inhibitions fall away from them.

 

"Wow..." Nick broke their silence.

 

"Yeah..." Matt smiled. Both of them knew that there was no turning back. Neither of them would ever be the same, and while they had their pasts, it was their future that they were looking toward right then.

To be continued...
