I’m finally getting a little break from all the drama in my life.
Trust me when I say, I need it.
Funny thing, it wasn’t planned. It all started with a harmless offer to listen. James, blond, sexy, Mr. Perfect. Broke up with his girlfriend. Next thing I knew we were sitting in his truck, alone, and after crying on my shoulder (not literally of course) he wanted some physical comfort, the kind only a bro can give, if you know what I mean.
Surprised the hell out of me.James wasn’t like that. Was he? Turned out he was more than like that than I could have guessed. Turned out he was a lot like me and I have to admit, I was surprised by that. Another guy on the team into the same extra curricular activities as me? Right under my nose? And not just a little, on the side, bro action. The full enchilada and I had no clue? I must be getting rusty.
The weekend started out as just an invite for some Friday night hot tubbing. After working out and wresting practice, some time in a hot tub sounded just about right. Todd and Allan were there, then Brent showed up. Big Brent, in every sense of the word.
Things got interesting fast. And not just with James and the others but with James’s step-dad, and Robert, a neighbor – I think. We were having such a great time, James invited us to stay for the weekend.
In the morning I woke before everyone else and met James’s uncle, Angus. Or maybe it was his step-uncle? I didn’t ask, and couldn’t ask now. Angus claimed he was straight and just needed some “therapeutic” college boy action. I bought it because of course I did. I’m still not sure if what I did was a good deed, or if I’d been hustled into doing something I would have done anyway.
Maybe I’d never know. Then again, did it matter?
I hadn’t expected to be enjoying myself as much as I was. I’d expected the weekend to be torture, going through the motions, living my messed up mess of a messy life. But with James and the others it felt easy, relaxed, and it was helping to take my mind off my everything.
Honestly, the biggest surprise was my secret encounters with Mr. Harrison, James’s step-dad. Cuz I’ve got a thing for older guys and I’m not afraid to say it.
Damn, that man is relentless! He’s the typical, strong, silent, dominant type. The kind of guy who knows how to wear a power suit, and stand at the end of a big conference table, with a look that made the other executives shut their mouths and sit up straight.But he was anything but… straight that is.It’s been a good time so far. You know, it’s nice to spend time with a bunch of easy going guys who don’t know you all that well, and vice versa.
First, everyone’s holding back a little, which is good. Nothing worse than having someone dump all the details on you in one shot. It’s been twenty-four hours and now we’re kind of easing into sharing. Taking it slow gives you and them a chance to reveal things. The kind of things you can share, while avoiding things best left unsaid, for now.It’s interesting. Bit by bit you and they undo expectations while confirming others.
Everything stays kind of on the surface because there’s no history, no past drama. It’s just hang out and chill.The honeymoon stage.
Of course, it doesn’t last long.
We’re only just starting to get to know each other.
