We watched a Bruce Willis Die Hard double feature since we were going to be at sea breakfast would be thirty minutes later so we could sleep in. When the movies were over, I now had two naked and sleeping teens cuddled up with me. I managed to carry Alex to bed but there was no way I was going to be able to lift a sleeping Joel. I shook him into a droggy state of consciousness and led him into his room. He curled up next to Alex and was soon back to sleep. I gave each boy a kiss then closed their door and headed off to my room for a good nights sleep.

Chapter 7 

My bladder woke me at seven and I quickly solved my problem then went into the living area where Gustov had my morning coffee ready for me. I just finished my first cup when there was a knock on the door. Gustov went over and opened it and Adam and Jerry came in. Jerry looked at me and said, “We’re hungry Pop and P is still sound asleep.”

Gustov looked at them and said, “Well, there is a breakfast buffet on the next deck that started serving at seven.”

“Cool,” Adam said. “Let’s go Jerry.”

“Ah boys,” I said smiling. “You might want to wear something more than your boxers.”

They looked at each other then turned several shades of red. Jerry laughed then said, “Good idea Pop.”

I just shook my head as they went back to their room. “Boys,”

I said laughing.

I walked over to the coffee pot and fixed my second cup when my two sleepy heads staggered out of their room. Joel wrapped his arms around me and said, “Morning Dad.”

“Morning tiger,” I said kissing his cheek. “Go drink your orange juice so you can think.”

Alex handed him his glass then said, “What are we going to do today?”

I hadn’t given it much thought then said, “Why don’t we look at the daily currents and see what they have scheduled. The boys quickly dressed then we stopped at Ed’s suite to see if he was awake. He was and asked where Adam and Jerry were. I laughed then said, “The poor starving waifs needed nourishment before they dried up and blew away into the sea. They went up to the breakfast buffet to fill their empty stomachs.”

Ed laughed at my description of the two then saw a note sitting on the television. He read it then set it back down. He turned towards the door then said, “The boys left me a note saying they’d meet us in the dining room.”

As we headed towards the elevators, Alex grabbed a copy of the currents. He was looking at it then said, “Hey Joel, look at this. They’re having a 4 on 4 basketball tournament. Adam and Jerry are great and with your height I think we’d do pretty good. What do you think?”

Joel thought about it for a minute then said, “Sounds good. We can check with the others when we see them.”

We went into the dining room where Adam and Jerry were sitting at the table having some fresh juice. I looked at them and said, “I thought you were eating at the buffet?”

Adam smiled and said, “We did Pop.”

Ed looked at them and said, “You didn’t get enough to eat at a buffet?”

Jerry finished his juice then said, “Well not really. The food was good but the pancakes were cold and rubbery. That’s why we decided to come down here and eat too.”

Alex looked at them and said, “Man bro, you keep eating like this and you’re gonna get fat.”

Jerry looked at his lover and said, “I don’t think that will happen.”

I rolled my eyes and said, “Will you two behave?”

We all started laughing as we took our seats. I had some more coffee and Ed had his first cup of the day. The waiter came over and Adam’s mentioning of pancakes sounded so good we all ordered them. I forgot that eggs, sausage and bacon came with the order and I was soon staring at way more than I could eat. Did I say more food that could be ate? Ha silly me, not with four growing teenage boys at the table. Everything there was almost gone when the waiter came back. I did manage to have another cup of coffee then waddle back to the cabin.

Alex talked Adam and Jerry to sign up for the basketball tournament then I left them to find themselves something to do. They were back in the cabin because I could hear them talking in their room. I heard Alex say, “That’s what the sign said love. It read males only.”

“You’re crazy man,” Joel said. “The last time you went up their you came down with boner so bad Dad knew something was going on.”

“Well yeah,” Alex said. “But that area is for guys only now.”

“Oh all right love,” Joel said. “But we’re gong to check with Dad first. I’m not getting in trouble this time.”

They came out of the room when Joel said, “Dad, Alex says the sunning deck says males only. If it is, can we go up and lounge for a bit and tan?”

I thought about it for a minute then said, “All right but I’m going to want to see the sign for myself. Also, I think you should bring the sunscreen so certain areas don’t get over done.”


We walked up two decks and sure enough Alex was correct. There was a staff member making sure the proper sex went into the area. I told the boys not to stay out to long and to come in if they started getting red.

Since we were at sea, I decided to take advantage of the computer in the room. I went to find one of my favorite story sites and see what I could find. I got engrossed in reading a story and forgot about the time until Adam and Jerry came in. I was reading a very hot sex scene when Jerry said, “Now we know why you send us off, huh Pop?”

I stood up and Adam said, “Somebody needs getting off alright.”

I quickly rearranged the bulge in my shorts while turning five shades of red. After things calmed down Jerry asked, “Where are Alex and Joel?”

I looked at my watch and it was now almost noon. I remembered they were sunning themselves when I said, “Come on boys.”

I went into their room and got their robes then we hustled up two decks. I went outside and found the two sound asleep on their stomachs. I shook them awake and said, “Come on boys, I think you’re done on this side.”

Alex tried to stand and said, “Oh ow Pop. My butt hurts.”

Jerry said, “Damn bro, you’re really red back there. Here put your robe on and forget your trunks. I don’t think you’d be able to put them on right now any way.”

Joel tried to roll over and said, “Damn Dad, I really did it this time.”

I handed him his robe and said, “You not as bad as Alex but you’re going to be sore too. I have something in the cabin that should help but I don’t think you guys will be playing basketball in your present condition.”

Joel put his robe on and we went back to the cabin. Gustov was cleaning up when we arrived and Alex was walking very gingerly. He looked at him and said, “What’s wrong Alex?”

“Ah nothing Gustov,” Alex lied trying to save his dignity.

Jerry piped up and said, “Him and Joel fell asleep on deck.”

“Oh my,” Gustov said. “How bad is it Alex?”

The little guy turned as red as his bottom and said, “Er well, it’s not really that bad.”

Not being modest, Joel turned around and lifted the back his robe so Gustov could see and said, “See dude and his is worse than mine.”

Gustov lifted the back of Alex’s robe and said, “Oh my little one. I know something that will help you both. I know that has to really hurt. Just stay here and I’ll be back quickly.”

About fifteen minutes later Gustov returned with a bottle of clear liquid and went into their bathroom. We heard the bathtub being filled then he returned and the bottle was empty. He took both boys by the hand and Joel said, “I guess we’ll be back.”

Gustov said, “I’ve fried my ass more than a few times boys and my mother used this on me and my brother. It may smell some but it takes the sting and burning out so you can sit.”

He took the boys into the bathroom and had them soak in the tub. He helped them off with their robes and Alex said, “Whew Gustov, what is this?”

“White vinegar,” he answered. “It’s been diluted with the water and it won’t hurt your dicks either. My mother first got this from our family doctor and she was worried about that just like you are but there’s no need to worry.”

The boys got into the tub and Joel looked at Gustov and said, “Are you sure my dick won’t get pickled?”

“Hummm,” Gustov thought then laughed. “I don’t know. You might want to ask your boyfriend there later.”

Gustov came out of the bathroom and went about his duties. I looked at him and said, “What was in the bottle, if I might ask?”

“White vinegar sir,” Gustov said as he went into my room to vacuum the floor.

I went in to check on the boys and man was it potent in there. I looked at them soaking and said, “Well, how do you feel boys?”

“Not bad Dad,” Joel said looking at me. “The stinging is almost gone.”

Gustov came back in and handed me another bottle and said, “Rub this lotion into their butts when they get out. This will help the skin stay moist and soft.”

They soaked for another few minutes then they drained the tub and took a shower to try and get the smell off. When they came out, I had them lie on the bed so I could rub the lotion in. I did Joel first and he said, “Umm Dad. This brings back all the memories when you’d rub my back. I’d forgotten just how good your massages are.”

There was something about this lotion that also helped cut through the vinegar smell. I finished Joel then said, “Alex would you like Joel to do this for you?”

“Umm no Pop,” he said, “Would you do it?”

I went over to the younger boy and began to rub the lotion in his butt. He just lay there and softly purred as I massaged his butt. After a few minutes it was all absorbed and I went to wash my hands. When I came back in I was noticing that the redness was greatly reduced and the boys were able to walk easier and without much discomfort.

It was now after one and first lunch seating in the dining room was almost over. The boys put their clothes on and we went on deck to the lunch buffet. I was amazed at the different foods prepared there and it was marvelous. I had fried chicken with corn on the cob and mashed potatoes. I really let loose and pigged out on the chicken. The boys had a little bit of everything including ice cream for desert.

After lunch we went over to the sports deck and they were signing up for the basketball tournament. Alex said, “Pop can we play? I feel better.”

I looked at him and said, “It’s fine with me. You might need Adam and Jerry though.”

He took off for the room and almost ran them over as they were coming out to try to find us. Jerry said, “Slow down bro before you hurt yourself. You can’t run like that with all these people here.”

“Sorry Jerry,” Alex said. “Do you still want to play basketball?”

“Sure,” Adam said. “Lets go sign up.”

The four boys went over and signed up to play. They looked around and saw that most the teens were about a couple of inches taller when Alex said, “Maybe this wasn’t such a good idea guys.”

Joel said, “Look babe, we’re just here to have some fun. Win or lose it’s gonna be fine. Relax.”

I found a nice cool spot one deck up over looking the court and still in the shade. Ed came out and joined me as we got a cool drink and sat back to watch the festivities. We watched several games then it was the boys’ turn. They were matched pretty evenly and it went down to the final shot but the guys got put out 24 to 22.

Alex was mad until Joel took him aside and said, “It’s just a game love. We played our best but we got beat. It happens.”

“I know,” Alex said. “But I would have like to have at least won one game.”

“So would I babe,” Joel said hugging him. “But we didn’t. Look, did you play your best?”

“Yeah,” Alex said.

“That’s all you can do then,” Joel said.

“Thanks love,” Alex said. Let’s go swimming.”

The boys went and changed and played in the pool for a while and Ed said he was tired so he decided to go to his cabin and take a little nap before dinner. Alex wanted to work on his conditioning so he went and swam some laps. Joel hung out with Adam and Jerry when Stacy and Tammy sneak attacked them. They were all rough housing for a few minutes then the lifeguard told them to settle down.

Alex finished his laps then joined the group when Stacy said, “Hey Alex, are you going to the teen club tonight?”

Alex looked at her and said, “We’d thought about it. There is a friend we met when we first came on board and is parents have asked we take him so he can be with some kids his own age.”

“Cool,” she said. “I need a partner.”

This took Alex by surprise then he said, “A partner? For what?”

Adam looked up and said, “What, you want to have my brother’s baby?”

“ADAM!” Alex shouted. “Not even funny.”

Stacy went over to him and said, “No sweetie, it’s nothing like that. I need a partner for a song I want to do tonight at karaoke.”

“Ah come on,” Alex said. “I did it the last time as a joke.”

Tammy stood up in the water and said, “Well Alex it went over real well and besides, you have a great voice.”

Alex thought about it for a few minutes then said, “All right. What song is it?”

Joel was now standing by his boyfriend and Stacy said, “I can’t tell you down here around the others. Let’s go up to your cabin and we can practice it.”

Joel, Alex, Tammy and Stacy went to the boys’ cabin to go over the song she wanted to do at the teen club. Gustov was finishing he chores when they came in. Joel looked at him and said, “We’re not going to make a mess Gustov. Since tonight is casual night, I haven’t decided what I want to wear yet so we’ll just take care of it.”

Gustov nodded and left as Stacy put the CD in the player. Alex hadn’t heard the song before but Stacy had come prepared with the words. After a few tries they were doing a good job on the song. Tammy smiled and said, “Sounds great you too but you realize you were singing to us?”

Stacy looked at her and said, “So? I wanted to. I think Alex did too.”

Alex smiled and said, “Hey, I couldn’t help it. The words to the song said a great deal.”

Tammy got serious then said, “Well, why not do that tonight?”

“You mean we sing to our partners?” Alex asked looking into Joel’s eyes.

“Yeah,” Tammy said.

Stacy said, “It sounds like a decent idea. We’ll see how it goes.”

The girls left the cabin to get ready for dinner and the boys decided to grab a shower themselves. They go into their room and shed their swimming trunks and Joel gives his lover a little hug. He said, “You look better every time I see you.”

Alex love being held by Joel and he couldn’t keep from popping wood as he snuggled close to his boyfriend. Alex smiled and said, “Really? I have noticed I’m getting a little more hair down there.”

“Yeah you have babe,” Joel started as he led Alex towards the shower. “But that’s not what I see in you. I love looking at you and holding you close at night and even holding your hand. But the most important thing is what’s in here (pointing to Alex’s heart). You have the biggest heart of anyone I’ve known. You are as sweet, tender and caring as Cody was but you are so different too. I feel like I want to spend eternity with you.”

Alex kissed Joel softly then said, “I always want to be with you too Joel. I can’t believe these past couple of weeks had been so great. I hated the idea of this vacation because I would be the odd kid out but you’ve made it the best vacation I have ever had.”

The boys stepped into the shower and washed each other’s bodies and continued to talk. I walked into the cabin and couldn’t hear anything so I was wondering where the boys were. I stick my head into their room just as they came out of the shower holding hands. I smiled at them and said, “Hummm, nice outfits. You planning on going to dinner like that?”

Alex ran over and I scooped him up as he said, “Oh Pop.”

I twirled his around and he brought his legs around my waist and I threw my arms under his butt so he could sit there. I kissed his nose and said, “You sound just like Joel.”

Alex giggled then looked lovingly to his boyfriend. I put him down then said, “Boys, is it fair to assume that your feelings for each other are getting more serious?”

Joel looked at me and said, “Yeah Dad, it is. I don’t want to be apart from Alex.”

“Hummm,” I said. “Alex, do you feel the same?”

“Yeah Pop,” Alex said pulling Joel’s naked body closer to his.

“I’m happy for the both of you,” I said smiling.

This was putting a whole different twist on things. I would need to talk with Ed about this revelation and see what he thought about it. I didn’t see him having a problem with Alex and Joel but I was concerned for Joel when the trip was over and I knew Ed would be likewise for Alex.

I decided to talk with him after the boys went to the teen club. I know we would have several hours alone so we could discuss this matter and try to figure out how best to resolve it without seeing the boys get hurt.
