STORY EXCERPT

“I’ve been thinking about you,” Glenn said.

“Have you?” Craig walked slowly along as they made their way across the vast expanse of Terrence’s property. The place really was beautiful. It was paradise in a swanky part of the city. Of course Terrence could afford it and more if he wanted it. It was a privilege that came along with immense wealth. “I haven’t had much time to think about anything. Heading back home is going to be a struggle. I have mixed feelings about it. I know facing the past isn’t going to be easy even with Dad no longer in the picture.” He felt bad that his dad had died. After all the crap that man had put him through, he was still Craig’s father. Like it or not, that did stand for something. Without that man, he wouldn’t be here. He wouldn’t have been born, plain and simple.

“I can’t imagine how it will be for you. You seem like you’re a strong person. I don’t know you that well. This is our third time meeting?”

“I think so.”

“This isn’t the right time to make a move on you. I’d never be that tacky. What I’m trying and wanting to say is that when you get back, I’d like to see you again. I want us to get to know each other better. That’s if you’re interested?”

“I’d like that.” Glenn was a nice guy. They did come from highly different backgrounds. One thing he didn’t want was to jump in bed with him right away. Not that Glenn wasn’t attractive, he was. For possibly the first time in his young life he wanted more than just a fling between the sheets. Something inside him had started to change. Maybe it was because he had witnessed what real love between two men was like seeing Danny and Terrence together? They’d made their relationship work despite the hardships between them. They didn’t allow anything or anybody to bring them down. He held the highest respect for both of them. “But I’m not sure how long I’ll be gone.” There were also things she had to take care of before leaving the city. Danny would look in on his apartment. He had a few plants that would require watering. That wasn’t a big deal. He’d have to take leave from work. He wasn’t sure how that would sit with his boss. If it came down to it, there were other places to work. Lots of places were hiring dancers.

“I’ll be here when you get back. Feel free to call or text me anytime. I’m a good listener.”

Craig couldn’t remember ever meeting a man like Glenn before. All of the guys that he’d been involved with one way or another in the past had been young and immature. Glenn wasn’t either. He wasn’t old. He guessed Glenn to be nearing forty give or take a few years. This man had direction in his life. And though they’d never spoken about finances, he had already guessed that Glenn also had a lot of money. “That’s good. I’ll do that when I get a chance. I’m leaving tomorrow. I want to attend the funeral. It will be awkward as hell, but I feel it’s the right thing to do. I’m pushing myself to go through with it.”

“At times we all have to do that. It isn’t easy doing things that we don’t like, but it can be good for the soul.”

This man was deep. Craig mulled over what Glenn had said. He agreed with him. Like it or not, some things had to be done. “I’m glad we met. You’re not like the guys I’ve had in my life.”

Glenn smiled warmly. They continued walking. “How so?”

“You’re mature.”

“As in old?” Glenn raised one brow as they came to a wooden bench. He motioned for them to sit.

“No, that’s totally not what I meant. Talking to you is different. So many times I feel like I’m alone in the world. Sure, I’ve talked with guys before, but it’s like they aren’t listening or interested in anything I have to say. You probably think I’m not making a lick of sense.”

“You make perfect sense. Maturity comes with experience, I like to think. I’ve lived a full life so far. I haven’t much to complain about. At times things have been extremely difficult, but you have to trudge on. Giving up was and still is never an option.”

“Sound words to live by.” Chatting with Glenn made him feel better. When he felt Glenn touch his thigh, he couldn’t help but return a wide grin at the man who was now staring directly at him. They kissed. It was unlike any kiss Craig had before. It was gentle and sweet. It left him feeling incredibly warm. This moment was one to remember. He’d never forget it.

ADULT EXCERPT

“I hope it lived up to your expectations,” Craig replied. Their eyes met as their noses touched and they kissed again. “Or that I’ve lived up to them.”

“Let’s see. I get to see and kiss you. We’re alone which leaves us many possibilities.” He glanced across the room to see an open door. Inside the room he spotted a bed. “And there’s a bed.”

“I do believe you have dirty things on your mind, Mister Glenn. Not that I’m complaining. We both think alike. There are blankets and pillows in there. I did some planning. It’s not like I didn’t think about this happening when you arrived.”

“A dirty mind is a terrible thing to waste.”

“Then follow me.” Craig reached for his hand. “There’s no time like the present.”

* * * *

Feeling so strongly for any man brought Craig’s emotions into a whole new territory. In the past, his relationships were brief and always overtly superficial. Never had he really looked beyond the surface with the guys he’d dated. The hookups didn’t count. They were purely for fun only, but on occasion along came a guy who did last more than one night. Now there was Glenn. Glenn was everything that all those men who had come and gone were not.

Craig raised his arms as Glenn started to undress him slowly. He tried to help, but Glenn shook his head. “No, let me do it,” he said. “I want to savour every moment. I’ve imagined many times what you looked like without your clothes. You certainly live up the fantasies I’ve had.”

He touched Glenn’s chest and through the fabric, he felt firm muscle underneath which begged to be caressed and kissed. Glenn was older than him, but the man lacked nothing in looks. With his hair greying slightly at the temples, and the beginnings of a five o’clock shadow, Craig was ready to devour him whole. “You are driving me absolutely crazy. I don’t do well with being teased.”

“That’s part of the fun,” Glenn chided.

“Maybe, but I’m used to getting right down to it.”

“It’s called foreplay. Why would anyone want to rush anything with you?” Glenn dropped to his knees. He looked up at Craig as he wound his fingers into the belt loop of his jeans. He pulled them down around Craig’s thighs. “Well, lookie here.”

Craig felt his cheeks grown hot. “You like big cocks?” he asked, feeling strange talking sexy to Glenn for the first time.

“I like the man attached. Having a cock like this though is definitely a bonus.”

Craig grinned. “I aim to please.” Wasn’t that his motto during his working hours at The Treasure Chest? Craig closed his eyes and sucked in a deep breath as Glenn started to suck his cock. “That feels so damned good,” he muttered through pursed lips. “Keep doing it just like that.” A jolt of pure pleasure rushed through him, and he bucked his hips forward to meet Glenn sucking motion. “I think you’ve done this before.”

Glenn looked up at him with a naughty grin, his eyes smiling wickedly. He pulled back for a moment from Craig’s cock. “Maybe. Saying anything more would be telling far too much.”

Together on the bed they came together in an embrace. “I came prepared,” Glenn said.

“Tell me exactly what you want me to do to you?”

“You want me to tell you that I want you to fuck me nice and hard? Is that what you want to hear? Glenn’s cock throbbed as he spoke. It had been far too long since he’d had a cock inside his ass, but he wanted it bad.

“Yes.”

He knew that Craig wanted to fuck him. Already, Craig palmed his ass with one hand while his other wandered down to Glenn’s cock stroking him. “If you keep doing that, I’m not going to last,” he warned.

“Hands off then,” Craig replied. With his now-free hand, he reached back up to caress Glenn’s chest. “Tell me.”

“I want you to stick your big cock inside my tight asshole,” he started. “I want you on top of me drilling me fast and deep. Think you can manage that?”

“Let’s find out,” Craig teased. “You have condoms?”

“And lube? Yes. It’s in the pocked of my jeans. Like I said, I came prepared.”

Craig half grinned as he winked at Glenn. “A man who thinks ahead, I like that a lot. Brains and brawn, the perfect combination.”

He watched as Craig applied a condom. He was generous with the packet of lube which was great since Glenn knew this wasn’t going to be easy. His experience as of late had been lacking. It was going to take a little extra effort to get Craig’s sizeable cock inside of his ass.

* * * *

Craig gripped the base of his cock as he took aim. The erotic sight of Glenn’s upturned ass was enough to steal his breath away. The man turned him on to no end. He leaned ahead a little as he pushed his cock between Glenn’s cheeks. He moved slowly. The last thing he wanted was to cause his lover more pain than pleasure. He’d bottomed before, and he knew how it went. It always hurt at first.

“How’s that?” he asked.

“Keep pushing like that.”

“This feels amazing. You’re fucking tight.”

“Stop,” Glenn ordered.

Craig froze in place. “What’s wrong?” Did it hurt that much?

Glenn glanced back over his left shoulder. “It’s good. You are a little bigger than I’m used to.”

Craig didn’t know if he should stop or keep going. When he felt Glenn bearing down, he grunted as his cock slipped all the way inside of Glenn’s fantastic ass. “Fuck,” he said. “Hot damn, take it.” He grabbed a hold of Glenn’s hips and started to fuck him hard and deep just like Glenn had requested.
