Adulting

Chip’s story

“Hi! I made it back to St Louis safe and sound.”

“I’m glad you called” I said, “I miss you.” I said sincerely. I really did miss him, and I felt bad about the way I acted this weekend. I really wanted a do-over.

“I started missing you the second I got on the plane”

“Really, even after I was such and ass?”

“You weren’t an ass” Alec said

“Okay, maybe the more accurate word is slut. I am SO sorry.” I said almost in tears, this had been eating away at me. I’ve been an absolute mess since the steam room episode. I really blew it.

“Chip don’t take what I said the wrong way. I have a slutty side too and I love exploring it with you but I’m really hoping that we’re working towards something bigger than sex. That at some point it’s just gonna be us. That’s all. I just hope you want the same thing.”

I did. I truly did, but I had no idea if I was going to be able to do it “I really do, Alec. But I don’t know, it’s like I’m fighting my nature, I guess I’m just a slut.” I said.

“That’s BS Chip and you know it. It’s a convenient excuse. I know it’s easier to do what you know instead of working at a relationship. I know we want the same things, but it’s gonna take some work. You need to commit to it or things will never change for you and it won’t work between us.” Alec said almost lecturing me.

I was getting pissed off at him. Who the fuck was he? He didn’t know me… or maybe he did. Maybe I was just pissed because he was right. It WAS easier to be a slut than face rejection. I mean, if it’s just us… at some point he’ll get bored, or not like me, or… I don’t fucking know but he just won’t want me. I didn’t say anything.

“Are you still there, Chip?” He asked

“Yeah” I said embarrassed and at a loss for words.

“Listen, when you’re home at Christmas I want to spend some time with you. Just you. What do you say?” Alec asked.

“I’d really like that. I promised my dad and Brandon I’d spend Christmas eve with them, and I don’t leave until the New Year’s Day” I said trying to figure out when we could be alone.

“My moms’ want me to be home on Christmas day, they also told me to invite you to join us for dinner if you wanted to. Why don’t you do that, then we can go back to my place and you can stay there until you head back.” Alec said, catching me off guard “just think about it.”

“That actually sounds like a good plan” I said thinking it all through in my head “I’ll need to spend some time with my dad again before I leave, but we can figure it out. Are you sure you want to be alone with me for that long?” It came off as a joke, but my insecure-self was really wondering.

Alec laughed and said “absolutely. Think about it and let me know. I have to work so I won’t be around 24/7, but let’s spend as much time together as we can.”

“Okay, I’ll talk to Dad and give you a call tomorrow.”

“Okay, sounds good. And, Chip.” He said then paused “I really want to spend time alone with you. I’ll talk to you tomorrow. Bye” He said, and we hung up.

I called Dad to discuss my plan, he was cool with it all. So, it was decided. Alec and I were going to spend almost a full week together. Alone. As a couple. I was excited and terrified at the same time. Seriously, this may not sound like a big deal, but it was to me. This was it. If he gets to know me and doesn’t like me then this is over. If he DOES like me, then what? What’s next? A relationship? A commitment? Exclusivity? Monogamy? Do I consider moving back to St Louis? Do I ask him to move to Denver? How does all this shit work?! Christmas was less than two weeks away. I couldn’t wait. But then again… I could. Argh, my own thoughts were going to drive me insane. I wanted a relationship so bad but had absolutely no fucking idea how to be in one. Anonymous sex is so much easier than love.

The plane touched down in St. Louis the morning of Christmas Eve. Dad was waiting at baggage claim as promised. He hugged as we waited for my bag “I’m so glad you’re home, Chipper” Dad said into my ear. “Me too, Dad.” I responded still hugging him tight. It felt good to be home. We walked to the parking garage, got in the car and headed home.

“So…” Dad started, “You’re spending the week with Alec, things must be getting serious.”

I took a deep breath “Well, it’s more like we’re deciding if we should get serious. We’re gonna spend time together and see how it goes.”

“So if it goes well, might I have a son living in St. Louis again?” Dad asked with a hopeful smile as he looked over from the steering wheel. I just smiled back and shrugged my shoulders. I still had no clue what would happen next if things went well, but I knew I was glad to be home and I also knew I couldn’t wait to see Alec on Christmas. But Christmas Eve was family time.

We pulled up to Dad’s house, it was covered in white lights and looked beautiful. The inside looked like Christmas. The tree was in its usual place in the living room, covered with whited lights and bulging with presents underneath. I shipped all my gifts earlier, so I didn’t have to haul them on the plane, dad had them arranged perfectly with the others. There were four stockings hanging on the fireplace including one for me and one for Brendon’s daughter Nikki who was joining us.

Brendon and Nikki were in the kitchen cooking dinner. I went in and hugged him and said hello to her. She and I hugged awkwardly, we’d only met a couple of times over the years. She was still going to college in St. Louis and lived with her mother, stepdad, and much younger half-brother. I was looking forward to getting to know her better and I know Dad and Brendon were hoping we hit it off.

Dad took over helping Brendon and Nikki and I sat down at the counter, I poured us a couple of drinks and we all caught up. Nikki told us all about school, she was studying horticulture and wanted to work with farmers. She asked me questions about Denver and my job, and of course Alec. After about ten minutes of awkwardness the conversation flowed freely, and we were laughing and ribbing each other. We had similar tastes in music and movies and found so much to talk and laugh about. About a half hour into the conversation Dad and Brandon were pretty much left out and just watching us bond, they both had huge smiles loving the fact that we were getting along great.

Nikki kept talking as we set the table for dinner. By the time we sat down for dinner all awkwardness was gone. I realized that Brendon and Nikki didn’t feel like guests, they felt more like family. It had only been a couple of hours, but she really felt like a little sister. Dinner was fantastic, then Nikki brought out some Christmas dessert she made. It was some kind of Parfait that she saw Rachel Ray or Martha Stewart, or someone make and wanted to try. She was pretty proud of herself… unfortunately it looked like shit. Literally it looked like shit in a cup. We ate it, and it tasted great, but like a dutiful big brother I kept reminding her it looked like shit in a cup. She laughed and gave me crap right back. Like I said, we felt like a family.

After dessert my dad brought out hot spiked cider and we opened gifts. Dad told me Nikki was into Schitt’s Creek,so I bought her a sweater like David wears, she went nuts. She gave me a hat and gloves that were actually really nice and totally my style. It’s hard to describe what was going on. I always had dad and my grandparents around on the holidays when I was growing up, but this, THIS felt like a family to me and I was loving it. After we opened gifts we all sat around and Watched A Christmas Storyfor the fourteenth million time, Nikki and I sat next to each other on the couch.

I must’ve passed out and was awoken by my Dad whispering, “…and here we are Christmas morning with Chip and Nikki passed out on the couch…” I opened my eyes to see what was going on. Nikki and I were asleep on the couch together, me spooning her, someone had put a blanket over us… and there was did videoing us. “Put that thing way” I said to him. He kept filming/ “Did you kids stay up too late? Were you trying to see Santa?” He said like we were four years old. Nikki started to stir and put her hand up to block the camera “Ugh put that down, my hair’s fucked up.” Just then Brendon walked in carrying a tray of coffee and mugs and Dad put the camera away. You could just feel the warmth in the room. The two of them were beaming at the fact that Nikki and I seemed so comfortable with each other. It was a nice way to wake up. It felt like home.

“Weren’t you supposed to be at your mom’s last night?” Brendon asked Nikki

“I texted her, she was glad we were having fun. She told me to be home by 10:00.” She responded

“Good, then you have time for breakfast” Brendon said in a sing-song tone as he almost skipped to the kitchen, he and Dad were loving this. Having the two of us around and getting along. I went upstairs to take a shower and change, I slept in the same clothes I wore on the plane and felt a little gross. When I came back down there was Christmas music playing and breakfast was ready. I couldn’t believe how much I was loving being with the four of them. It was like having the family I missed out on as a kid.

“When is Alec picking you up?” Dad asked.

“About 10:00 O’clock” I answered with a mouth full of eggs.

Brendon wanted to know if I got his mother’s a gift. If I needed something they always kept spares in the attic. “Yeah. They’re Bronco’s fans so I got them both really nice team sweaters. I had them sent to Alec’s and he wrapped them for me. He said they’ll go nuts for them”

Dad almost spit out his coffee laughing “Buying lesbians football gear… can’t go wrong with that.” We all laughed.

“That’s what I said when I came up with the idea, but Alec swears they’ll love it” I said a little excited to give them the gift, I thought it was a good idea. Nikki started talking about what her family was doing for Christmas, and the conversation flowed from there. We cleaned up the kitchen and before we knew it 10 o’clock was here.

“I’m not leaving until I get to check him out” Nikki said referring to Alec. Just then the doorbell rang, she pushed in front of me and ran to answer it, just like a snotty little sister. When she opened the door she was speechless, and I just laughed. There he was in all his magnificence. His Pea coat buttoned all the way up and a cute Christmas scarf around his neck. You could see his breath in the winter chill. Nikki just stared.

“Let him in already” I said as I pushed her aside and dragged him in hugging him for dear life. “Merry Christmas, god I missed you!” I said quietly in his ear. He kissed my neck and hugged me.

“Get a room” Nikki said as she pulled on her coat and then introduced herself to Alec “Hi, I’m Brendon’s daughter, Nikki. It’s nice to meet you, but I need to get to my mom’s house before she kills me” she said blowing by Alec and heading out the door “MERRY CHRISTMAS!” She yelled to everyone “And we’re going shopping this week, I’ll text you” She said as I looked at her over Alec’s shoulder as I hugged him, then she mouthed the words “damn! He’s cute!” to me. I discretely flipped her off behind Alec’s back as I smiled. I really liked her.

“Come in Alec, can you stay for a drink?” Dad asked

“Sure. Coffee if you’ve got it” Alec said, “oh, and this is for you” he said handing dad a small box. Then he took off his coat and I hung it on the hook by the door.

“You didn’t need to do that” Dad said, then Brendon handed Alec a box and dad said, “this is from us, just a little something.” Alec came in while dad got the coffee and we all sat down in the living room. Dad and Brendon opened the little box, it was tickets for a local theatre performance. They told Alec how much they loved local theatre when he was here at Thanksgiving and he remembered. It was a thoughtful gift and they loved it. They gave him a nice scarf and a beautiful pair of leather gloves that matched the coat he wore at Thanksgiving. He loved them. We stayed for about a half hour then I dragged Alec out, I didn’t want to be too late to his moms’. We all hugged. I grabbed my stuff and reminded them I was staying at Alec’s.

“I’ll be around this week, Alec has to work. Remember I’m meeting you at the Casino and taking you to lunch tomorrow, Dad” I said as we hugged goodbye. Then I hugged Brandon and we were off.

“I lied” Alec said as he started driving down the road.

I looked at him curiously “about what?” I asked having no clue what he was talking about

“My mom’s aren’t expecting us until 1:00. I wanted you all to myself for a couple of hour. Let’s got back to my place” he said with a huge smile on his face.

“You little fucking liar” I said laughing. “So now what?”

“Back to my place to give you a proper welcome home” He said heading the few blocks to his house. When we pulled up the house was covered in Christmas lights, it looked so cute. As soon as he parked the car I grabbed my bags and we headed up the walkway to the front door. As soon as we were in the house I dropped my bags and we were all over each other.

We stripped each other as he pushed me towards the bedroom. He yanked back the covers and we jumped into the bed. We held each other and started to kiss slowly, and passionately. Even though we only had a couple of hours before we needed to be at his moms’, we took our time and savored just being alone together. I ran my hands up and down his strong back as we kissed, he was squeezing my tight ass, his warm body felt so good against mine. God, I like this guyI thought to myself. Oh who the hell was I trying to kid. I’m pretty sure I loved this guy. It was so early in our relationship and I was afraid of scaring him off, or worse… getting rejected so I didn’t dare tell him how I felt yet.

Alec pushed his hard cock against mine as we continued to kiss, I reveled in the feeling of his touch. He pulled back from our kiss and moved to my neck, planting small kisses on my nape. He then moved down to my nipples kissing one while touching the other, then switching. It felt wonderful. He moved his lips down my torso to my abs while he ran his fingers up and down my body stimulating each and every nerve along the way and awakening all my senses. He moved his lips lower, running them down the underside of my hard shaft, then engulfing my warm, soft testacies in his mouth one at a time, swirling his tongue around them. It felt warm and so sensual. I wanted to push his head hard against me, but instead I left him alone and just let him work his magic. It was evident he knew what he was doing, and I was NOT complaining.

He moved back up the underside of my pulsating shaft until he reached the dark, purple head. He took it in his mouth, swirling his tongue around it. I responded with a deep guttural groan as he lowered his mouth deeper onto my shaft. Lower and lower he went until his face was buried in my pubic hair and my head was in his throat. He kept it there as his tongue stimulated every ripple and vein. Fuck it felt amazing! His mouth was in perpetual motion moving up and down my cock, over my balls, then licking down my taint, and soon teasing my ass ring. He was focused on giving me pleasure, varying his movements and creating new sensations with every action. I never wanted him to stop. My instincts told me to grab his head and guide him, push him deeper into my ass, but I didn’t want to change a thing. The sensations were thrilling and overwhelming, so I just laid there with my hands at my sides and let him go. He didn’t need my help.

His tongue started a full assault on my pink pucker as he pushed it deep into me. I moaned uncontrollable, writhing in pleasure as I balled my hands into fists and pounded on the mattress not knowing what else to do with them. He pushed my legs up against my chest to get better access as he licked up and down my ass trench, then back into my hole, prepping me for his beautiful manhood. This went on for almost an hour. AN HOUR! He did all the work, I just laid there and soaked in the ecstasy, lost in euphoria. Oh my god.

Finally he came up for air and we kissed. Slowly and deeply, his tongue tasted of me. As we kissed, he grabbed my legs and put my ankles onto his muscled shoulders, positioning his body on top of mine. I could feel the heat of his cock against my wet hole as his precum lubricated me more. He reached into the nightstand and grabbed a bottle of lube, using it on my hole before he stroked it up and down his hard, veiny shaft. We were ready.

He pushed, just a little and the head breached my tight hole. I could feel myself opening up to accept his warm tool. It was pulsating in me as I my passage contracted around it. He pushed slowly giving me maximum pleasure. Inch by inch he entered me as we kissed like lovers. He wasn’t trying to get off, he was trying to pleasure me while at the same tie savoring it. This wasn’t about sex, it was about intimacy. Being with each other and enjoying each other’s bodies, reveling in the sensations. It was like nothing I had ever experienced. We were making love.

After a while he whispered into my mouth “I’m ready to cum.” I responded without hesitation or thought “Please cum in me.” He quickened his pace just a little and soon I felt his powerful release deep within me. He warmth took over my insides as he continued to slide in and out with ease using his own seed as lubricant. We stayed like this for several minutes until he pulled out and moved on top of me. His still hard, wet cock rubbing against mine, lubricating it.

He moved up and straddled my cock lowering himself onto me, never breaking our kiss. My pubic hair tickled his firm ass as he rested his bottom on my pelvis, keeping me lodged deep in his passage. He contracted around my cock and I flex to let him know I was there. He moaned into my mouth as he lifted himself up and lowered himself time and time again. I whispered into our passionate kiss “I’m cumming” as I pushed myself in and out of him. I shot into him several deep, powerful streams. He moaned as my dick pulsated within him. He continued to move up and down my shaft for a while before pulling off of me.

We were still kissing as he moved to my side. When we stopped we gazed into each other’s eyes, each drinking in the other. We were both smiling as he caressed my cheek. He kissed me as I turned my back to him, so he could envelop me in his arms.

I just lay there in his arms thinking about how wonderful the last day with my family had been, and now… NOW I was laying the arms of this wonderful guy that I could totally fall in love with. Oh fuck, who was I kidding. I was already totally in love with him but scared shitless to say it. It was all too new, it was way too early. I needed to let this happen naturally. I needed to know he felt the same before I acted.

There was no way in hell I was gonna fuck this up!

“Time to go meet my moms’” He said. Playtime was over.
