Adulting

Chip’s story

“You ready for this?” Alec asked as we pulled up to the beautiful, old house. His moms’ lived just about a mile and a half away.

“Ready as I’ll ever be” I said, getting out of the car and walking towards the house. Both of his mother’s came bounding out of the front door and ran up to greet us with exuberant hugs.

I knew instantly which one was his biological mother. Laurie was petite and had beautiful, long, wavy red hair the same color as his. She also had his eyes and nose, they really looked a lot alike. His other mother, Rhonda, was tall and much bigger. She actually reminded me of a young Bea Arthur. That thought made me laugh inside. She was loud, with a deep voice and very outgoing. A real straight shooter. They were both very welcoming, but I could tell Laurie was sizing me up and hadn’t yet decided if this scruffy little blonde boy was good enough for her baby. I had my work cut out for me.

They welcomed us in and we all moved to the kitchen where Laurie filled four Irish mugs with eggnog and Rhonda followed behind her spiking them all with rum. We moved to the living room and talked for a while. Well, it was less like a talk and more like and interrogation. Laurie asked me a million questions, it felt like she was on a mission to find fault with me more than trying to get to know me. After about a half hour of being poked and prodded by Laurie, Rhonda handed me a glass of scotch and said “Grab your coat Scruffy. Come keep me company while I smoke” it was obvious she was saving me from her over-protective wife. I grabbed my coat and followed her through the kitchen and out the French doors to the patio where she already had a fire burning in the little firepit. “I can’t seem to quit but won’t smoke in the house” She said holding up her pack of Marlboro Lights as we each took a chair near the fire. It was cold as fuck out there. “So, Alec tells me Brendon dates your dad.” I nodded “Brendon and I were on a committee together a couple of years ago for a local charity dinner.”

“Yeah, he was telling me he knew you” I said.

“He’s a good guy. Is your dad the cute redhead?” She asked.

“That’s him” I laughed.

“He looks way too young to have a son your age” She laughed. I told her how he was only sixteen when I was born. She gave me her undivided attention as I told her the story from him being an awesome teen father all the way up to us coming out to each other last month. She listened intently, her eyes wide and asked a lot of questions along the way.

“Wow, he sounds like quite a guy taking on a kid on his own at sixteen. He must be damn proud of you, Scruffy.” She said as she lit her first cigarette. Scruffy, she just gave me a nickname that would stay with me among Alec’s family.

“He is. I’m extremely lucky to have him and Brendon.” I said sipping the Scotch. It burned my throat but warmed me up inside. Just then Laurie and Alec walked out to join us., both bundled up in their winter coats.

“Hey Laur, his dad is the little redhead that dates Brendon from the fundraising dinner” Rhonda said as Alec and his mom pulled a couple of chairs close to the fire and joined us.

“Really? The one who looks like Alec?” She said and laughed. Oh my god, she wasn’t wrong. He did kind of look like him. SHIT! I do have daddy issues don’t I? I thought to myself as they both laughed, and Alec just smiled knowingly. It was obvious he thought the same thing. “But he looks too young to have a kid your age” she said. Rhonda started retelling my story looking over to me every now and then to fill in the blanks. The story seemed to endear me to Laurie, she was starting to warm up to me.

After Rhonda finished her second (or maybe third) cigarette we all went back into the house and gathered around the tree to open gifts. They gave me a nice sweater, and they went nuts when they opened their Bronco’s sweaters. Alec was right, I hit a homerun. After we opened gifts we ate an early dinner, and everything tasted awesome, they were great cooks. By the time we finished eating we were all very comfortable around each other, for the second time this trip I felt like I was part of a family, and it felt right.

When Alec and I left later that night I promised them we’d get together again before I left and also promised that on my next visit we’d all get together with Dad and Brandon. Seriously, I felt like part of their family, especially when Laurie hugged me goodbye and held on like she never wanted to let go. I hugged her back and it felt so good. I felt accepted.

“G’night, Scruffy! We better see you before you leave” Rhonda yelled waving from the door as we climbed into Alec’s SUV.

“They really like you” he said as soon as we got in the car. Then he kissed me and said, “So do I” and we headed back to his place.

“I like them too. Laurie scared me a little at first” I said as Alec chuckled “but once Rhonda saved me from the interrogation, I think she warmed up to me.”

Alec laughed out loud “I think you’re the first guy to survive her interrogation. In case you hadn’t noticed, she’s a little protective of her baby boy.”

“She should be. He deserves the best” I said

He turned to me, smiled, and said, “And I think he may have found it, Scruffy” Then tousled my hair like I was a toddler who just made did his chores without being asked. Then he turned to face the road and kept driving.

When we got to his house I made us some hot chocolate, and Alec lit a fire in the fireplace. We cuddled on the couch and watched “It’s a Wonderful Life.” God, being there with him just felt so right. When the movie ended we made our way to the bedroom. After we stripped down to our underwear we got under the covers and rolled on our sides with Alec behind me spooning me. He put his strong arms around me and his soft lips on my neck. It felt so sensual. I could feel his hardening manhood sliding up and down the trench of my bubble butt. It was so warm. No… it was hot. Hot as fuck.

Alec kept working the nape of my neck as he moved his manhood up and down my ass crack, teasing and tempting my pink hole, then he started to explore my body with the fingertips of his right hand, his left arm was under me. His caresses were so light they were almost nonexistent, yet they seemed to awaken every nerve ending in me. He just moved slowly, touching me with his lips, his fingertips and his now hard cock. Not pushing or forcing anything, just exploring and stimulating my body.

I instinctively pushed back against him feeling his hardness. My hands were in front of me and my legs curled to my chest, I was almost in a fetal position as his right hand moved down and firmly grabbed my buttocks, massaging my right cheek as his powerful rod continued to explore my ass crack moving down lower, lower, just low enough to lineup perfectly with my pucker. He stuck a finger in his mouth and then inserted it into me, loosening me up for the inevitable. I moaned as he probed around inside of me. He removed his finger after just a minute or two and I felt his throbbing member against my entrance. I didn’t give him any tie to hesitate, I pushed against him forcing him into me. I gasped as he breached my ring, his mushroom head now in me giving me so many sensations. We laid there like that for a minute or so, then I felt him moving, inching his way into me. He would push in an inch, then pull out and inch. Push in two inches, then pull out an inch. He was slowly fucking me, taking over my passage inch by inch until I felt his warm, meaty scrotum hit my ass crack. He held there inside me for a while. It was incredible! I contracted my sphincter around his trying to give him maximum pleasure, and by the sounds of the guttural moaning in my ear it was working.

We evolved into a slow, sensual fuck with long, purposeful strokes. He was owning me, and I loved it. After several minutes he pulled out, and I moved onto my back. He moved between my legs pushed my knees to my chest, lifted my ankles over his shoulders and pushed into me again. This time he pushed into me even deeper. Oh my god it was incredible! I looked into his beautiful, piercing hazel eyes and was mesmerized. This beautiful man could have almost anyone and he chose to be here with me. Damn I was lucky! I didn’t deserve a guy like this, but here I was with his perfect cock moving in and out of me. I loved the feel of him inside me. I felt full… whole. He moved in and we kissed passionately. I wrapped my arms around him and pushed my lips hard against him, I went into a fuck-frenzy as he pounded into my ass with long, hard strokes awakening every pore. I wanted it bad, all of it! Every inch of his ginger cock and every drop of his seed. I continued contracting my sphincter around him, milking him. He pulled off my lips a little and grunted “I’m ready.” I moved my hands to his ass cheeks and held on as he pounded. He was hitting me in all the right places and I was overcome by lust. H grabbed my cock and started stroking it with strokes matching his fucking. Oh god, I wasn’t gonna last… A few mores strokes… then… FUUUUUUUCCK I shot my load in between us, hitting my own chin and chest. Alec wasted no time licking me clean as he pounded into me. “FUUUUUUUCCK” He yelled at the top of his lungs shaking the windows of the little house. A warm sensation took over my bowels as he shot his load deep into me and pumped it in and out. I was covered in cum inside and out and I fucking loved the nastiness of it all.

Alec collapsed on top of me, I was pinned under him bearing every ounce of his weight and it felt so good. We were both huffing and puffing, smiling and laughing with nervous energy. “oh… my…... GOD!” I said as I tried to catch my breath, “That was the perfect end to the perfect Christmas.

“It was a great day. I love having you here” Alec said as he kissed me, then he rolled off me and laid by my side.

“And I love being here” I rolled onto my side and kissed his cheek. I really did love being here, I could totally get used to living in the cute little house with this big, hot man. This week together is going to be awesome. Alec rolled on his side with his back to me and I spooned him as we both fell asleep.

I slept like a freaking baby and woke up in the exact same position I fell asleep, with Alec in my arms. I kissed his neck softly and he started to move “good morning” he said quietly, still facing away from me.

“Good morning” I breathed into his neck.

“Good morning” he said as he rolled over and kissed me. “I’ve got to get rolling. I got to be to work in a couple of hours. What’s your plan for the day?” We both got out of bed and pulled on our underwear.

“My dad’s dropping his car off, so I can get around this week. I’m meeting him for lunch, other than that no real plans for the day.”

“Good. Just relax. I should be home about 6 o’clock.” Alec said walking into the kitchen to the coffeemaker. “I have fruit and bagels for breakfast. There’s also some oatmeal in there. I’m not a breakfast guy and if I do eat breakfast I’m a sausage and eggs guy… I know that’s not your thing, so I didn’t know what to get.” I smiled at the fact that he thought about me when he shopped for groceries.

“Fruit and a bagel sounds awesome.” I moved my way to the refrigerator “You want some?” He nodded, and I started to plate our light breakfast. It was so nice being in the cute little kitchen with this underwear clad hunk. I felt like part of a couple… I could get really used to thisI thought to myself. After breakfast we hit the shower together. I dressed quickly as he primped and donned his uniform. Again, DAMN he looked hot in that. Just then the doorbell rang, it was my dad.

“Good morning sunshine” Dad said, “Once you take me to work you can have the car, Brandon will drop me off the rest of the week he just works a few blocks away.”

“Awesome, thanks for this” I said

“What a cute house” he said. Just as he was walking over the threshold Alec walked into the room. The light from the bright kitchen backlit him and he looked almost like a superhero standing there in his uniform. And good morning to you!” Said dad with admiration as he walked towards my stud and hugged him good morning.

“Hi Aaron” Alec replied with a huge smile as he handed me a key to the house “You sure you’ll be good on your own today?”

“Yup. See you tonight” I said as I kissed him goodbye. He walked out the door and headed to work. I gave dad a quick tour of the adorable little house, grabbed my coat and drove Dad to work. After that I hit the grocery store. I had decided to make dinner for Alec. Meat and potatoes. Not really my thing, I usually make vegetarian stuff. I eat meat, but not that often. Scotty always tells I’m a great cook, but my dinners are like side dishes. I need to use meat. Alec was a lot like scotty that way… a muscular guy that liked his protein. His kitchen had an indoor grill, so tonight it was steak.

By the time I put the groceries away and tidied up the house a little it was time to meet Dad for lunch. We went to a cute little place near his Casino. Just as the food arrived my phone rang, it was a local St. Louis 314 number, so I answered. “Hello” I said cheerfully.

“Hi, is this Chip Sullivan?” the deep voice on the other end asked. I tentatively acknowledged it was me. “This is Kirk Harris. I’m a friend of Brendon Marlow. I own a small but growing PR firm in St Louis. I ran into Brendon at the coffee shop this morning and mentioned we’d picked up some new accounts and were getting ready to staff up. He said that you were… well, how’d he put it… thinking about thinking about maybe looking into moving back to St. Louis.”

I was caught completely off guard. I looked across the table at Dad who and gave him a “WTF” look, he returned the expression “Yes. It’s just a seed of a thought, but yes.”

“Listen, I looked you up on Linked-in when I got to the office and I think your experience may be a fit. I know you’re here for a few more days, would you be willing to meet me for lunch to talk. I’ll tell you what’s happening with us, you can tell me your career goals and we can see if maybe there’s a fit here. What do you think?” The confident man on the other end of the phone asked.

Trying not to sound completely shocked I agreed to meet him for lunch the day after next. He told me he’d text me the company info and the address of the lunch place. With that, I had an interview set up for the next day. I hung up the phone and said, “That was a guy by the name of Kirk Harris.”

Dad wrinkled his brow a little “Kirk’s a friend of Brendon’s. Why is he calling you?” he asked a little confused. I told him what he said, and his face lit up. “Awesome. Kirk’s got a great company. He started it like five years ago from home and has about twenty employee’s I think. This is exciting!” I could tell that he was jumping up and down inside from the thought of me moving back.

“It’s just lunch, Dad. Don’t get too excited” I replied, “I’m gonna call and thank Brendon.” I dialed his number and told him about the call.

“Shit. I’m sorry. He promised he’d wait until tomorrow, so I could call you and warn you. But that’s Kirk, he gets shit done.” Brendon said laughing “I hope you’re not mad, I know this is a little “cart-before-the-horse.”

“Not at all. I appreciate you thinking of me.” I said gratefully, then I had a thought “SHIT!” I don’t have any interview clothes with me.”

“Nikki and I are hitting the mal today, why don’t you join us. We’ll suit you up. My treat.” Brendon said.

“That sounds good. But you don’t need to treat me, I need some new clothes anyway... but thank you for the generous offer.” We made plans to meet in a couple of hours then hung up. I told my dad about the conversation and he just sat there with a stupid, wide grin on his face, He was loving the idea of having me home permanently.

I met Brendon and Nikki at the mall. We had a great time playing dress-up at all the stores. It was like hanging out with my dad and sister. O comfortable and natural. We hit several stores and I found the perfect outfit. I also hit the home section of one of the stores and bought some matching towels and potholders for Alec’s kitchen. I know it sounds stupid but his mismatched kitchen towels were driving me nuts. Everything else was perfectly appointed except for the towels in the kitchen. So, I fixed that.

I felt like the perfect husband when Alec returned at six o’clock on the dot and dinner was almost ready. “It smells good in here” Alec said as he walked through the kitchen door, grabbed me by the waist and gave me a heart-melting kiss hello.

“MEAT!” I said, and he smiled broadly knowing that I made that totally for him. “I had a helluva day” I said as I busied myself at the grill, checked the side dishes in the oven and made a salad. I told him all about my day. The interview, shopping, I even showed him the matching towels. He had an odd look on his face… half smile half confusion. I knew what he was thinking “shit, this guys just moving right in.”I killed that thought instantly with “Listen, so we’re clear, if I do this I’m doing it for me. I don’t want you to feel any pressure. I’d find my own place and we keep dating. If it turns into more we can discuss what the next level looks like. I could see the relief on his face.

“So basically, you move back to town and I have a boyfriend that I can pick-up and take out to dinner on a whim, or spontaneously take to the movies, and maybe have the occasional sleepover?” He said smiling big.

“Well more than occasional I hope, but yes.” I said. He responded with excitement and started asking me a million questions. I was glad he was excited.

After we dreamed out loud for a while about living in the same city he said “Hey, I almost forgot. A friend of mine invited us to a New Year’s party at his loft downtown. You up for that?”

“Sounds like fun!” I said “So, I get to meet your friends?” I smiled mocking him a little.

“Yup! They’ve all been wondering what I’ve been up to for the last month. It’s time they found out what’s been keeping me busy.” He said then hugged me. We kissed a little then he patted my ass and said “God that smells good! When do we eat?”

“In about 10 minutes” I said bending down to look in the oven.

He smacked my butt “I’m gonna jump in the shower quick.” About ten minutes later he emerged all fresh and clean wearing a Tee and sweatpants. Damn that man looked sexy. We ate dinner and talked about his day. Then he asked me about my trip to the mall, lunch with dad and my upcoming interview. I loved this. Sharing my day with someone, hearing all about his day… this is what I wanted. A relationship. I was getting excited for the interview now. I could see the prize clearly… A life with Alec. I wanted it bad now.

The next day was more of the same. I ran errands, updated my resume, researched Kirk’s company, and cleaned up around the house while Alec was at work. When he got home we met his mom’s for dinner. I really liked them, Rhonda had me laughing out loud all through dinner and Laurie was warming up to me telling me embarrassing Alec stories. The four of us actually had a great time together. After dinner we went back to Alec’s and watched stupid reruns then went to bed and made love. I slept like a log.

I woke up the next day so ready for this interview. I jumped out of bed and went into the kitchen to make the coffee and get breakfast ready. Alec walked in completely naked and half asleep hugging me from behind “You’re up early” He yawned into my ear and rested his chin on my shoulder.

“I’m excited for this interview” I said turning to kiss him, “After the last couple of days, I really want this to happen.”

He moved his hands around my waist and said “I really want it to work out too” then kissed me. We sat at the kitchen table and ate breakfast. Alec asked me typical interview questions to help me prep. After breakfast we took a shower together, then Alec got dressed and went to work. I spent the morning driving myself crazy over-prepping and over-thinking everything. After the last few days with Alec I wanted to move back to St. Louis more than everything and this job could make it all happen. Noon finally came, and I was off to meet Kirk.

I got to the restaurant about fifteen minutes early and he was already there and waiting for me. The waitress lead me to the table and I was caught a little off guard. Kirk stood, introduced himself and shook my hand. My dick grew instantly hard at his touch, he was fucking beautiful! He reminded me of an older Kenny, tall, darker, green eyes. Shit it was going to be tough to concentrate.

“It’s nice to meet you, Chip. Brendon speaks highly of you” Kirk said.

“He speaks highly of you as well, Kirk” I responded.

Then Kirk launched into a summary of what was going on with his firm “As I told you we’re growing fast and need to staff up over the next few months. We have two big accounts that we will be onboarding in February. We want to be fully staffed by March first.” He went on to tell me about the new clients and the open positions. The we launched into my experience and where we both thought I might bring the most value. We agreed that there were a couple of great opportunities that would be a good fit. Kirk suggested that the next step would be for me to go back with him to the office and spend some time with a couple of his team members. So I did. It was a great afternoon. I loved the vibe of the office and the people were great. I stayed until almost four o’clock.

I sat down and spoke with Kirk before I left “Is it okay if we check your references?” He asked.

“Absolutely” I answered.

“Listen, it’s more of a formality. If everything checks out we will likely make you an offer. I want to talk a little further with the folks you met and get their input of how to best utilize you.” I was shocked, he basically just told me they were going to offer me a job. “It won’t happen overnight. We have several hires to make and I want to make sure we put you in the right position and set you up for success. I’ll keep in touch over the next couple of weeks. Be patient with us as we figure it all out.”

“Thank you so much for reaching out to me and giving me the opportunity to meet with you and your team. I look forward to talking further” I said as we both stood up and shook hands. He walked me to the door promising me I’d hear from him soon.

Damn, things were starting to come together.
