When Josh was born his parents were just past their sixteenth birthdays. His mother, Mary Ellen, was pretty much the town slut, and even at fifteen, his father, Robbie Patterson was showing signs of growing up to be the hottest dude in their small southern town, which was a suburb of Atlanta. Mary Ellen seduced the unwary boy one evening behind the town’s only drug store, and Josh was conceived.
They had a shot gun wedding and lived with Mary Ellen’s mother, who took care of Josh until the young parents could finish high school. The day after graduation, Robbie got a good job as a mechanic at the Ford dealership, and Mary Ellen took off with a salesman passing through town. She was never seen or heard from again. Her frantic mother waited daily for a message from her, but none ever came.
The salesman was apprehended in Atlanta. He swore that he and Mary Ellen had only spent two nights together, and when he woke up the next morning she was gone. He didn’t know where she had taken off to, and he was not suspected of any wrong doings.
When all this happened, Josh was nearly three years old. Robbie rented a two bedroom apartment near his work, and put Josh in day care. They usually spent the weekends at Robbie’s parents. The Patterson’s would urge Robbie to go out on Saturday night and said that they didn’t mind baby sitting. He would never do it, preferring to spend all his time with Josh.
When Josh started school, Robbie placed him in after care. Robbie made good money as an auto mechanic, and so he bought a small bungalow not far from the school. It had three bedrooms. Robbie set one up for himself, one for Josh, and furnished the third as a guest bedroom. Once the two of them were settled in the house, Robbie took his parents up on their offer to baby sit. Every Saturday night he brought Josh over to their house and he went into Atlanta for the evening. Often he did not return until the next day. His parents were delighted, thinking that perhaps Robbie was seeking a fresh relationship at last.
On the occasion of Josh’s eighth birthday, Robbie received the good news that he had been promoted to Assistant Manager of the service department at the Ford Agency. The promotion also meant a raise in salary. Robbie decided to make a double celebration. In the afternoon he made a birthday party for Josh and in the evening he invited some of his coworkers over to the house to celebrate his promotion with him. He also invited one friend from Atlanta.
Josh’s little friends were all out of the house by 4:30. Josh and Robbie cleaned up the house together and got it ready for the evening’s activity. Robbie’s friend Ralph, from Atlanta, came in a little after six and helped get things ready as well. When he came into the house, he embraced Robbie and kissed him on the cheek. Even at the young age of eight, Josh thought that was kind of odd. Men just didn’t kiss each other in his world, except maybe a father and son, and that was rare. Maybe things were different in Atlanta.
“This is my friend, Ralph” Robbie said, and Ralph extended his hand for Josh to shake.
“Ralph will be spending the night,” Robbie added. “This way I don’t have to worry about his driving back to Atlanta if he has a drink or two.”
Ralph was the same age as Robbie. He gave Josh the once over and said, “I can’t believe you’ve got a kid this big, Rob. I must add that he is just as handsome as you are. Is he as well endowed as you are also?”
“Shut up,” Robbie said. Josh could tell that his dad was angry at Ralph, but he didn’t know why, because he didn’t know what Ralph was talking about.
“OK, OK,” Ralph said in a very defensive tone of voice. Robbie nodded at him and everything went back to normal. The guests started to arrive between eight and nine o’clock. Robbie introduced everyone to Ralph, but Josh knew everyone and stayed around to greet them. He was ordered to bed about 10 o’clock. The boy was usually in bed by nine but tonight was a special occasion.
The party got pretty loud and boisterous at times and Josh was having trouble falling asleep in the small bungalow. In fact he was wide awake. He wondered if he shouldn’t surprise Robbie and Ralph and lay out towels on the guest room bed for Ralph. He finally decided that his dad could do that and he stayed in bed.
He dozed off, but still could not fall into a deep sleep. He was awakened by the sound of the front door closing. The guests were beginning to leave. He decided to wait until they were all gone. Then he would go help clean up and say goodnight to Robbie and Ralph. Finally he decided that everyone was gone.
He distinctly heard Ralph ask Robbie if they could clean up in the morning. Obviously the stranger did not know his dad very well.
“I won’t be able to sleep until everything is all cleaned up and the house is ship shape again,” Robbie said. That’s when Josh decided he should help. He got out of bed. All he was wearing was a pair of jockey shorts. He and Robbie always walked around the house in shorts so he thought nothing of it.
“Hey sport,” Robbie said when Josh came into the kitchen. “What’s up with you?”
“Nothing. I just thought you could use some help cleaning up. You guys must be very tired.”
“You are a godsend,” Ralph said. “Yes, let’s clean up quickly. I can’t wait to get into bed. How about you, Robbie?” he asked.
Robbie gave Ralph a dirty look. Again Josh wondered why. Ralph hadn’t said anything out of the way.
They were almost done with the cleanup when Robbie ordered Josh to bed. The house was small and compact and you could hear every sound, especially since Robbie and Josh never closed their doors. Until the two men were in bed and stopped yapping, Josh knew that he would not be able to sleep. The guest bedroom was on the right of Josh’s. Subconsciously, Josh was listening for Ralph to occupy the room and go to sleep so maybe then he himself could finally fall asleep.
Imagine his surprise when his dad and Ralph both went into Robbie’s room. Imagine the bigger surprise when Robbie closed the door. Josh could still hear muffled sounds, but the sounds were dim and he began to fall asleep. He was too young to place any meaning to the situation so he fell asleep peacefully.
Josh wasn’t used to going to sleep so late and he slept almost until nine the next morning. When he glanced at the clock, he was glad that it was Sunday. He didn’t have to go to school and Dad didn’t have to go to work. He showered and dressed quickly for church. He ran into the kitchen. Robbie was reading the Sunday paper and sipping his coffee.
“There you are sport,” Robbie said. A few minutes more and I
was going to wake you.”
“Where’s Ralph?” the boy inquired.
“Gone back to Atlanta,” came the terse reply. After that, Robbie stopped going
into Atlanta on Saturday nights for almost a year.
Josh’s best friend, Dan Messenger, lived next door to the Pattersons. His parents had married late in life. They were old enough to be Dan’s grandparents when he was born three days after Josh. He stood a foot and a half taller than Josh. In fact, at eight he was almost as tall as Robbie. Dan’s father was six feet, six inches tall, and his mother was six feet tall in flats. Dan inherited their stature. Josh and he would joke constantly about the difference in their height. When they grew older they came to joke about the difference in their cock sizes. Even before puberty, Dan’s cock was every bit as big as Robbie’s. Without any pubic hair, his cock looked bigger than the average adult male. Nonetheless, at eight years old, he had no idea yet how to use it other than to pee.
One summer day, when the boys were only nine, Robbie took them down to the lake to swim. At the end of the day the lake was deserted and Robbie made them discard their wet suits and change into dry clothes. The two boys stripped. Josh was naked and when Robbie saw his two and a half incher, he knew that it would someday grow to a nice size. When Dan dropped his pants, Robbie actually whistled. The boy’s cock was nearly as big as his, and he himself was well endowed. Robbie forced himself to look away for fear of making the boy self conscious.
Seeing Dan in the buff aroused strange feelings in Robbie. When Mary Ellen told him she was pregnant, he vowed never to let another woman do to him what she had done. He avoided entanglements of any sort. Generally when he was in Atlanta he went to a whore house he knew of, and relieved himself.
He had met Ralph in a straight bar, and when Ralph came on to him, he went home with him because he was horny and curious. He slept with Ralph twice in Atlanta and on Josh’s eighth birthday in his house. It just didn’t work out, especially in his house, fearing that Josh would discover him. He had concluded that he was all heterosexual, so he couldn’t understand being aroused at the sight of Dan’s cock. He willed the incident out of his mind.
By the time the boys were ten, their relationship underwent a subtle change. They began to grow curious about their bodies. They were beginning to glean from innuendos in the school yard that their penies could be used for pleasure as well as for peeing. Alone in their rooms, they began to explore their bodies and their feelings. Someone had informed them about and then instructed them in the art of masturbation. Alone at night in their respective bedrooms, they would masturbate.
Neither boy felt guilty about what they did and for good reason. To Josh, this was all a game until “the right girl came along.” For Dan it was an entirely different matter. He was not interested in girls. He began to sneak peaks at cocks every chance he got. He was in awe at the different sizes and shapes, the cut and the uncut, the low balls and the high balls, the big balls and the small balls. At first, he only wondered how these cocks would feel in his hand. The first time he wondered what a cock would taste like, he was amazed at himself. By the time he was fourteen, he would have given anything to have a cock up his ass and his cock up someone else’s. Of course by this time, Dan realized that he was queer. He didn’t mind at all. Just let someone make fun of him. He could flatten five members of the football team all at once.
Dan knew instinctively that his best friend was straight and he never tried to do anything more than whack off with him. When Josh started dating girls, that sort of ended their intimacy.
One very hot, humid Georgia evening, when Josh and Dan were fifteen, they were sitting in the shade on Josh’s back porch. They were wearing only their gym shorts. Neither of them had on underwear, just the shorts. Suddenly Robbie appeared at the back door. He was grimy and his fingernails were full of oil and grease from his work.
“Have you guys eaten yet?” he asked. The boys shook their heads.
“I’m going to shower, clean up and change. Wait for me and I’ll take you to
Burger King for dinner. It’s too hot to cook at home. Call your folks, Dan,
and let them know.”
“Good deal!” the boys said in unison.
About twenty minutes later, Robbie came downstairs, looking and smelling fresh and clean. He was wearing a pair of shorts and a tank top tee shirt. It was obvious to a trained eye that he wasn’t wearing underwear like the boys. Dan gasped.
Robbie was only thirty-one. His mechanic’s body was ripped. Muscles bulged and contracted with every breath he took. His tee shirt barely fit him and Dan could see some thick hair just above the neck line. It looked like the man might be hairy. The outline of an ample cock was very evident in his tight shorts. His thighs and shins were bulging with even more muscle. His outfit was completed by a pair of sandals. Dan began to erect and he had to turn away.
“Okay boys, jump in the car,” Robbie said. Quick as he could Dan dove into the back seat and Josh took the passenger seat. Dan tried to will his erection away. It didn’t help. When they got to Burger King, Dan excused himself and ran to the bathroom. He whacked off in a booth and his erection subsided, at least for the moment. Somehow he got through the evening, but his heart was racing, and he finally allowed himself to face the truth. He was crazy in love with Robbie Patterson, and nothing was going to change that, even if it cost him Josh’s friendship.
For over a year, he carefully avoided hanging out at Josh’s, and instead he asked Josh to hang out at his house. The less he saw of Robbie the better. As luck would have it, Dan’s father asked him to take the car into the Ford dealer for service one day when there was a school holiday. Part of him wanted to go and gaze upon Robbie’s magnificent body, but the other part of him was frightened of the consequences.
Robbie was glad to see Dan. He realized that he hadn’t seen him around the house in a while. He completed the paper work for Dan, and a service man drove the car away. “Come into my office and hang out with me while you’re waiting,” Robbie said.
Dan could feel the tell tale stirring in his groin. Robbie led him into the office and closed the door. Dan thought that he would never get a better chance to speak to Robbie about his feelings. What’s the worst that could happen? Robbie could tell him to forget about it. He could tell him to stay away from Josh. He wasn’t going to kill him. He could make him promise in advance not to tell his parents. Even if he did, they had to know sooner or later.
“Mr. Patterson,” Dan started.
“Please call me Robbie.”
“I’m glad you said that,” Dan said. “I’d like to talk to you about something. I know I should be talking to my parents, but you’ve always been a second father to me, and you are so much closer in age to me than my dad is, that I’d feel more comfortable talking to you about it.”
“Nothing is ever as bad as it seems, Dan, so go ahead. Tell me what’s on your
mind.”
Dan took a deep breath. He looked into Robbie’s eyes. He saw compassion and understanding there and whispered, “Promise me you won’t tell anyone and you’ll leave it for me to tell in my own time.”
Robbie nodded.
“Robbie. I’m gay,” Dan murmured.
Robbie was silent for a while. He took both of Dan’s hands in his. “I never would have guessed,” he said. “Does Josh know?”
‘Oh no, I swear. I never came on to him. He’s my best friend and I love him.”
“So right now nobody knows but me and you.”
“Yes,” Dan answered meekly.
“Why don’t we keep it that way for a while?” Robbie asked. “That will give us a chance to discuss how and when to tell your folks and especially when to tell Josh. He should be told. ”
“Yes, of course. I always intended to tell Josh.”
“Also we’ll have a chance to kick around the consequences of living a gay life. Let’s make sure you’re really gay. Have you ever acted on it?”
“No not yet, but I have yearnings that I can’t really suppress too much longer. They are eating at me. It’s really painful Robbie.”
“Still you won’t know until you try. If I tell you something, will you promise to keep my secret as well?”
“Of course,” Dan muttered.
“Even Josh knows that I got his mother pregnant when we were just fifteen. I was already a father at your age. I had to get married, and Josh was born right after my sixteenth birthday. He’s the only good thing that came out of the whole mess. Anyway I stopped having sex with his mother and she didn’t care. She was sleeping with the whole town. For years I just stayed home and cared for my son. My fist, and an occasional visit to a whore house, kept me satisfied.”
Robbie could sense that Dan was uncomfortable. “If you would rather not hear this I can stop,” Robbie said.
“No please go on.”
After a while I started going into Atlanta for sex on Saturday nights. I had no trouble picking girls up, but when it came time to bed them, I knew that I couldn’t. Mary Ellen had truly turned me off to girls. Like you, I began to think that I might be gay. I met this guy at a straight bar one weekend. He really cruised me and he came on to me so I had sex with him to see if I was really gay. We had sex twice in Atlanta and once in my house. I found out that it really wasn’t what I wanted, and that I wasn’t gay after all. Do you see where I am going with this?”
“Sure, I get the point, but you are really a confusing guy, Robbie. As far as I can see you never get involved with a woman or a man either.”
“I’m sorry to say this Dan, but I get off at a whore house whenever I feel the need. I just don’t want to get involved with any woman I have met to date, and my friend in Atlanta proved to me that I wasn’t gay.”
“Could you get involved with a guy, if the right one came along?” Dan asked.
I’m not sure. I didn’t enjoy sex with my Atlanta fuck buddy. But that might have been just him. Maybe I could enjoy male sex with the right partner.” Dan’s ears perked up and his heart skipped a beat.
Jut then there was a knock on the door. “Come in.” Robbie said. It was the service man. Dan’s car was ready.
“I have so much more to tell you and seek your advice about,” Dan said. “Can we meet again soon?”
“Did Josh tell you that my folks are taking him down to Disney World this weekend?”
“Yes he did.”
“They are leaving on Friday after school lets out. Why don’t you come over after dinner? Maybe it would be best to tell your folks you are going to the mall with friends.”
“Good idea. I’ll see you then.”
“In the meantime Dan, don’t say or do anything until we have talked it out.” Dan nodded and left Robbie’s office. Robbie never saw him out because he had a raging boner and was afraid to stand up.
Robbie had not enjoyed his sexual encounters with Ralph. Ralph refused to use condoms or lube and he was totally insensitive. He made love like a wild animal. He hurt his partners and he didn’t care. Robbie dropped him like a hot potato, and sought the services of female prostitutes. He hadn’t lied to Dan about that. What he failed to tell Dan was that he still yearned to have sex with men. Even when Mary Ellen was seducing him, he had to pretend he was with one of his boy pals. When he was fucking a whore he pretended it was some twinkie’s nice bubble butt.
The first time he had seen Dan naked, he had to control his urges. Dan was just a little boy of nine, but his cock was proportionate to his height. He was almost as tall as a full grown man and his adult looking cock was luscious. Robbie wanted to devour it.
Now he had a real dilemma. Dan wanted to talk to him about sex. Would he be able to fight his desires? It didn’t matter. Dan was counting on him and he didn’t want to let him down.
Robbie stood naked in front of the mirror. He looked at himself, studying his body carefully. He was thirty-two years old, but could easily have passed as a friend of Dan and Josh. He reckoned he didn’t look much over twenty-two. He was muscled and had no body fat. His flaccid uncut cock was at least five inches and grew another two inches when it stiffened. He liked what he saw because he intended on seducing Dan with this body in an hour or so. He knew it was totally the wrong thing to do, but he couldn’t help himself. He wanted this so badly.
He put on a pair of gym shorts directly on his naked body and slipped into a pair of slippers. He would not wear a shirt when Dan came in. If he should get an erection, as he did the other day in his office, he wanted Dan to see it.
There was a knock on the door even earlier than Robbie expected. There stood Dan in gym shorts, muscle shirt and sandals. Dan was now six feet, four inches tall and might yet grow. He towered over Robbie’s five feet, eleven inches. Robbie could see that Dan wasn’t wearing underwear either, and took that as a good sign.
“I couldn’t wait,” Dan said. “I got out of the house as quickly as I could and I told my folks that a friend was picking me up down at the main road.”
“Smart,” Robbie said. “Come on into the living room.” Robbie motioned to the sofa and the two men sat down side by side.
“Have you given any more thought to the possibility that you are not really gay?” Robbie asked.
“Yes,” Dan said emphatically. “Even if I have never been with a guy (he began to blush) when I whack off, it’s always a guy I fantasize having sex with. Sometimes it’s so real, I can feel his cock going up my ass or I can feel me fucking him.” Dan paused to get Robbie’s reaction and suddenly felt he had gone too far.
“I’m sorry,” he said. “I shouldn’t be talking to you so candidly.”
“Nonsense,” Robbie answered. “I want you to be as candid as possible. We did
promise that our secrets would remain with us.” Robbie patted Dan on his knee
and left it there. He could see that Dan was hard. He wanted Dan to see that
he was hard also.
“Would you like something to drink?” Robbie asked, and stood up. Now Dan could clearly see Robbie’s erection. It was almost coming out of his gym shorts.
“No. I’m fine,” Dan said. Robbie sat down again, but managed to get a little closer to Dan.
“What about you?” Dan asked.
“What do you mean?”
“Well you said that you weren’t really sure if you had a bad experience with that guy from Atlanta or you were really straight.”
“No I really haven’t given it any more thought,” Robbie lied. He put his hand back on Dan’s knee. Dan reciprocated by putting his hand on Robbie’s thigh. The two men said nothing, but they began to stare into each other’s eyes. At this moment they both knew it was happening.
They leaned into each other and started to kiss. As their kisses got more passionate, their hands moved further up their thighs until at last they felt each other’s cocks. Robbie reached under Dan’s shorts and began to fondle the boy’s cock. Dan began to moan. It sounded a lot like the wind in a frightening movie scene.
“Suddenly Robbie pulled away. “Let’s go to my bedroom,” he said. They ran down the hall and dropped their shorts and took off their sandals. Robbie removed Dan’s shirt, and the two magnificent bodies just stood and stared at each other. Dan’s huge frame was as muscular as Robbie’s, and his erect uncut dick was at least an inch bigger. Robbie’s mouth watered when he saw it. Dan saw that Robbie did indeed have a hairy chest of blonde hair, and his cock twitched.
They lay down in bed facing each other. They embraced and started kissing again, making sure that their cocks rubbed together.
“This is so nice,” Dan said. “Now I am sure that I’m gay.”
“Me too” Robbie whispered in Dan’s ear. Being the older of the two, Robbie took the initiative. He rolled over on top of Dan and began to slither down his body. On his descent, he kissed and licked Dan’s body with his tongue. When he reached Dan’s thick pubes, he began to kiss him there and Dan’s moaning increased. Robbie took Dan’s balls in his hand and began to fondle them. Dan raised his buttocks, encouraging Robbie to do more so Robbie began to lick Dan’s piss slit. When he felt that Dan could bear it no longer, he took as much of the massive cock as he could into his mouth. He ran his tongue along the underside of Dan’s shaft. After three or four strokes, the sixteen year old could bear it no longer.
“I’m cumming,” he yelled and he began to spurt stream after stream into Robbie’s waiting mouth.
“I didn’t expect you to cum so fast,” Robbie said later. “I wanted to get you all worked up and then let you fuck me.”
Dan pointed to his cock. It was as hard as a rock and showed no signs of subsiding. “I think I’m up to it,” Dan said.
Robbie smiled and opened the drawer in his bedside table. He removed a condom and lube. When Dan saw that, he objected. “I’m a virgin and you said you hadn’t been with a man since I was eight. Why do we have to use a condom?”
The man just about raped me. He didn’t use protection. The virus can take many years to incubate. Besides I’ve been with whores and I don’t know who they have been with. I never bothered to get tested, but I will, the very next time I go to Atlanta. I promise you.”
Dan realized that Robbie said that like this was not a one time shot. There was
a promise in his promise that they would do this again. He was elated.
“OK.” he said, “but don’t blame me for looking forward to going commando.” Robbie smiled and kissed him. He ripped open the condom packet and rolled the rubber down Dan’s cock. It was almost too small, but he got it all on. Then he squeezed lube on his fingers and greased Dan’s cock all over. Finally he took a glob and pushed it into his own ass. “Rub this in good,” he ordered Dan who was happy to oblige.
Robbie had heard that the easiest entry was lying together like nested spoons. They assumed that position. Dan was too eager and he started to push in roughly. Robbie made him stop.
“Please go slow and be gentle. Pretend that you love me.”
Dan was shocked that Robbie would say this. “I do love you. I do,” Dan sobbed. He entered Robbie very gently. It hurt like hell, but Robbie had been fucked before and he knew the pain was only temporary. Besides he was so stunned by Dan’s announcement that he ventured to ask, “You love me?”
“My God, Robbie, I have been trying to seduce you for years. You are the only man I have ever fantasized about. If I died right now, I would die happy.”
“Then fuck me man, and we’ll talk about this later.”
When Dan was in to the hilt, Robbie could feel his pubic hair rubbing against his ass cheeks. He instructed Dan to lie still. When the pain was gone, he allowed the young man to start stroking in and out. Dan’s huge cock was rubbing against Robbie’s prostate. As Dan stroked, Robbie began to shiver and he felt his orgasm coming on. He tried to supress it, but it was no use. He began to spurt generously into the bed sheets. As he did, his ass constricted around Dan’s cock. Notwithstanding that he had just cum in Robbie’s mouth, Dan had a mind blowing orgasm once again.
Neither of them could move. They lay this way until Dan’s cock fell out of Robbie’s ass, propelled by the normal rhythm of the intestines. Robbie rolled over and the two men began to fondle and kiss each other as they rubbed their cocks together.
“Do you really love me?” Robbie asked at last.
“With all my heart and soul, and don’t tell me I’m too young to know what true love is. I have loved you ever since you moved next door.”
“I fell in love with you when I took you swimming when you were nine years old,” Robbie said. “Do you know what torture it was for me not to touch you all these years?” They kissed again.
“Nobody must know about this,” Robbie admonished Dan. “You’re a minor. I could go to jail and all our lives would be ruined.”
“Don’t worry. Do you think I want to be found out and labeled a faggot in a Bible belt high school?”
“Can you come over tomorrow evening and Sunday any time? I don’t have to work and Josh won’t be home until late Sunday night.”
“Wild horses couldn’t keep me away.” They began to kiss again, but Robbie said that it was getting late and Dan should go home.
They showered together and Dan offered to help change the sheet. “Let it be,” Robbie said. “We might as well leave it this way until Sunday afternoon.” They smiled at each other, and although it was agony for him, Dan went home.
On Saturday evening Dan told his folks he was going out with friends. Robbie drove his car down to the corner and picked Dan up. They drove to the outskirts of Atlanta and pulled into a sleazy looking motel. Even though Dan looked like he was in his twenties, Robbie left him in the car and got them a room. They kept the room until midnight. For the few hours they were there, they lost track of how many times they sucked and fucked each other. Dan came four times and Robbie came three times. Not for one second did they stop telling each other how much they loved each other, and how happy they were.
Robbie was promoted to Service Manager shortly after his first sexual encounter with Dan, and he gave Dan an after school job in his service department. When Dan graduated from high school, he went to work there full time. He could afford to get his own apartment, but he continued to live at home to be close to Robbie day and night.
Josh, on the other hand, applied to several colleges. He wanted to go to a northeastern university, believing that it would be more prestigious, and easier for him to get into medical school. Both Harvard and Columbia offered him a full scholarship. He chose Columbia certain that New York would be more exciting than Boston. Besides that, he was hoping to get into Harvard Medical School after his undergraduate years.
Dan’s parents, who were more than forty years older than he, decided to retire. They needed to sell the house in order to buy something in Ft. Myers, Florida, where they had family and friends. They asked Dan if he would mind finding a place of his own. After a week of wondering if he should come out to his parents, he decided against it. He told his folks that Robbie had generously offered to allow him to rent Josh’s old room. With a long academic career ahead of him and then internship and residency somewhere, it didn’t look like Josh would ever move back home. Dan’s parents were delighted, and Robbie and Dan felt that they could keep there secret forever.
Although the rest of the world didn’t have to know, both lovers decided that come what may, they would tell Josh the truth. If they all loved each other as much as they professed, they were certain Josh could handle it. So when Josh came home at Christmas, and asked if he or Dan was going to sleep in the guest room, it was truth time.
The three men sat at the kitchen table. Robbie took each boy’s hand in each of his, and told Josh the truth. Josh was silent for a long time and the others could not read his reaction.
“Say something, please,” Robbie begged.
“Yes, please say something,” Dan echoed.
Finally Josh began to speak. “You’ve both known since I was in Middle School that I have a genius I.Q. so please give me some credit. Dan, I have known that you were gay since I started dating and you didn’t. At first I wondered about it, and then I could see the way you looked at the guys in the locker room, especially when they were naked. I had not a moment’s doubt. In more recent years I saw the way you looked at my father. I couldn’t blame you. Dad is the hottest stud I know. I honestly didn’t blame you for lusting after him. And you Dad, remember the night of my eighth birthday when you brought Ralph home. I knew that you two slept together that night. I didn’t realize the significance of it then, but when I grew older, I figured it out. I also remembered when you saw Dan naked that time you took us swimming. You were definitely smitten and tried to look away from him.
“The biggest giveaway is that a hot guy like you never got involved with a woman after your divorce from my mother become final. It just wasn’t natural, especially with women throwing themselves at you all the time. I began to wonder about it just about the same time I got the significance of the Ralph incident. Hell, I knew there was nothing wrong with you physically. We never close our bedroom doors, and I accidently caught you jacking off a couple of times. I’ve been waiting for too many years for one of you to come out to me, and frankly I’m pissed that the two people I love most in the world didn’t trust me.”
Dan and Robbie were speechless, so Josh continued. “About the only surprise is that you two have been a couple for so long. I never suspected. I’ll bet tomorrow when I think about it, I’ll start to remember and recognize some of the clues.”
Robbie jumped up and wrapped himself around Josh. He began to kiss him on the cheeks. “Thank you Josh for being so understanding. You don’t know how scared I was of this moment. Do you have any idea how much I love you?”
Dan joined in and the three men enjoyed a group hug. “I love you also, Josh,” he said. “I’ve always loved you as a brother. I’m not sure if I can ever love you like a son. Is it OK with you if I still consider you to be my brother?”
“Jerk,” Josh answered. “I love you too.”
Josh began to laugh. “Hey guys,” he asked, “does this mean that I can sleep in my own room tonight since you two will be sleeping together? And also I’d appreciate it if you would keep it quiet. I don’t need to hear all that queer carrying on.” Josh started to laugh so hard, he could hardly contain himself.
