Uncle Joe's Story

Chapter 4

This became our new nightly routine, once the kids were in bed, my wife and I would read some more of Uncle Joe’s diary.

Tonight, as I started up the laptop, she asked me, “how do you think Uncle Joe will handle Randy leaving?”

I shrugged, “I’m not sure, it does seem that he really had feelings for him.”

She nodded, “it is so sad that he couldn’t tell Randy, I mean it kind of seemed like Randy was into him too. Maybe he felt the same way.”

I agreed, “yeah, I noticed that too.”

I opened the last ‘High School” file.

 Randy’s family moved two days later, I never saw him again. I don’t know what I would have said to him anyway. I wonder how Randy felt about what we did, hell, I don’t know how I felt about it. It didn’t mean anything, right? It just had to be more teenage exploring. If that was true, why did I enjoy it so much? I don’t mean I not only liked Randy stroking me, but I also enjoyed stroking him, was that normal? Now I can’t get the site of Randy’s naked body out of my mind. That sexy round, hairy ass, shit I wanted to grab that ass so bad. That cock was just perfect, I wished that both of us would have lasted a little longer, so that I could have held it a little more. Damn it I needed to quit thinking about this, Randy was gone, I just needed to move on.

Dad kept me busy on the farm and my job at the feed store helped keep my mind off Randy. Soon summer was coming to a close and football practice would be starting. It was good to see all my classmates at the first practice. It was even better to see them after practice as we showered. I was amazed at how much they all filled out, Brett’s long dick was even longer, Roy’s chest and abs were even tighter, of course his cock and ass were as hot as ever. God, I needed to keep these feelings in check.

It was time to start thinking about graduation and what I was going to do after high school. I already knew that I didn’t want to farm with my dad and brother. It’s not that I didn’t like the farm life, but the farm economy in the early 80s was very rough. After talking about it with dad I decided I should go to college so I could have something to fall back on. If I wanted to farm after college I could, but if things weren’t better at least I could make a living. I knew I loved building things, so construction was a natural choice, I started looking at schools with that in mind.

Since Randy was gone, Roy and I hung out together more, even though he had been dating Laura for three years. Laura was a year younger than Roy and was a very nice girl, she didn’t seem to mind if I tagged along with them. I was careful not to spend all my time with them, I didn’t want to turn into that third wheel. Laura started to ask her friend Heather to join us. We had hung out for a couple weeks, all four of us, sometimes there were other friends too. The group outings were always fun, and I felt less uncomfortable and not like I was intruding on Roy and Laura’s dates when others were along. After practice one day, Roy and I were walking out to our cars. 

He said, “so, Laura was telling me that Heather kind of likes you.”

I asked, “really, me?”

He chuckled, “yeah, why are you so surprised?”

I shrugged, “I don’t know, not too many girls have expressed any interest in me.”

He said, “they have, you just didn’t return the interest.”

I paused, “really?”

He laughed, “yes really, you’re a nice guy and Laura told me that several girls have said they think you’re cute.”

I blushed, “wow, I guess I never noticed.”

He asked, “do you like Heather?”

I nodded, “I guess so, she’s sweet and attractive.”

He put his hand on my shoulder, “why don’t you ask her out? Laura and I will double with you guys this Saturday night just to make it a little less awkward. Then you guys can see where it goes from there.”

I told him I would think about it as I crawled into my truck. We had spent a lot of time together when we were with Roy and Laura, but never had spent much time alone. I would say we were already friends and maybe this is what I needed to get over Randy and quit thinking about all the other guys.

The next day as Heather was getting her books out of her locker, I worked up the courage and asked her out. She had a huge smile as she said yes. She and Laura worked it all out, we were going to go out to eat at a nice place and then to a movie. It was more comfortable than I thought it was going to be, being friends and hanging out so much before helped. After dinner and the movie, we dropped Roy and Laura off, I took Heather to her house. I walked her to the door, and she gave me a little kiss as she went inside. Wow, my first kiss, it was just a quick peck on the lips, but it was a kiss.

The next week in school, Heather told me she had a nice time and we agreed to another date, this time, just the two of us. Roy gave me a big smile and a thumbs up as he saw us holding hands as I walked her to class. After a few dates, we had our first make out session, see, I knew I was straight.

My wife looked at me after we read that last line, she said, “I didn’t see that coming.”

I chuckled, “neither did I.”

We turned back to the screen to continue reading.

 Heather and I continued to date for the rest of the school year, while we made out many times, we never went any further. I don’t think either of us was ready.

I was trying to decide where to attend college, after visiting several schools I was leaning toward the state college about an hour from home. They had a good construction management program. I was talking with mom and dad about it and dad said that since finances were still tight on the farm, they weren’t going to be able to help much. Since my brother didn’t go to college, it would not have been fair to him for my parents to pay for my school, I agreed. I was going to have to apply for scholarships and financial aid to pay for college. I did have some money saved, but not nearly enough, dad said he would help with whatever he could. After talking to the guidance counselor at school, I came home with a solution. I showed mom and dad the brochure from the Army Reserve. They would pay most of my tuition and a portion of any student loans. I would need to go to basic training during the summer between graduation and the start of college. After much discussion, I signed on the line and after basic training, I would have to spend one weekend a month and two weeks in the summer training. I thought it was a fair exchange for coming out of college with minimal debt.

Heather was the only one who wasn’t a fan of the idea, I couldn’t blame her. I would be leaving for three months for basic training a week after graduation. I would be going straight to college a week after my return, so there wouldn’t be much time for us to be together. She would still have one more year of high school, so I told her that I would understand if she wanted to date someone else. She said that she didn’t, but I knew that we wouldn’t be dating much longer.

Graduation day came and I packed my bags and was off to the next phase of my life.

My wife said, “I didn’t know Uncle Joe was in the reserves.”

I nodded, “yeah, I had forgotten about that too. I think I was four when he finished his enlistment, but I remember a few pictures of him in his uniform.”

She said, “it was kind of sad that he and Heather seemed to have ended things too.”

I agreed, “yeah, but how many high school romances actually end in marriage.”

She chuckled, “that’s true, you always meet someone better in college.”

We opened the “Basic Training” file.

I was a bundle of nerves as I stepped onto an airplane for the first time in my life, and I was going to spend the next three months without anyone I knew. No family, no friends, plus I had no idea what to expect. Once I landed, I followed the instructions that were mailed to me and found my way to the ground transportation area of the airport. As I stepped out of the building I saw the Army bus in the parking lot, I walked toward it and handed my paperwork to the man standing in front of it. He told me to get on the bus, we were still waiting for several more. About an hour later we were headed down the road on the two-hour trip to the base. As soon as the bus pulled onto the base and stopped in front of a large building, a uniformed man jumped on the bus and started yelling at us. We quickly got off the bus and were lined up in a formation. We were told what was going to happen in the next 24 hours, he led us to get our heads shaved, then to the mess hall. It was late afternoon so after we ate, he took us to the barracks and told us to shower and get to sleep. Wake up was at 5 am tomorrow and we would be issued uniforms and be shipped to our training area. Once he left, we started to get to know each other a little better. We were from all over the country, big cities, and small towns. Being from the latter it was my first time interacting with guys that were other than white Midwesterners. The guy who took the bunk next to me was black, we introduced ourselves as we undressed to take our showers. I looked around the room, there were several more black guys, a few Hispanics and a Native American.  As everyone headed to the shower, I fell back into my old habit of checking everyone out. Just like in high school, there were every shape and size of dicks and bodies. I was taken back a bit as I saw my first black cock and then I saw an uncut dick for the first time. Shit, here we go again, I thought I was done with these feelings after I started to date Heather.

Thankfully we got into our training and were kept so busy that I didn’t have time to think about it. The only time it was tough was in the evening when we were all showering. I was able to control myself and soon we were down to our last two weeks of training. We were preparing to do one final field exercise where we would spend 5 days camping out, using all the training from the past 10 weeks. We were setting up camp and were paired with another guy to share a tent. I was paired with Kyle Thomas, he was a nice guy that I had talked to a lot before, I wouldn’t say we were best friends, but we got along well. We were both from small towns and had similar backgrounds. After the days training, we crawled into our tent for the night. We were laying there talking about going home, and how glad we were that basic training was just about over. We were laying on top of our sleeping bags in our underwear as our conversation continued. He asked if I had a girlfriend, I told him I wasn’t sure and explained the situation with Heather. He said that the hardest part about basic training was how horny he was. I asked if he had a girlfriend, he answered that he did not. I looked over as he was rubbing his cock through his briefs. I started to panic when I felt my dick start to stir. I tried to pull my sleeping bag over my crotch without being too obvious. Kyle reached over to stop me and said you don’t have to do that. He placed his hand on my now rock-hard cock, I froze as he started to rub me. I’m not sure why I didn’t stop him as he hooked his fingers into the waistband of my underwear and pulled them down. My hard cock flopped out and without hesitation he grabbed it, leaned down, and took me into his mouth. Holy shit, it felt incredible, I was too shocked to stop him, I just lay there with my mouth open as he bobbed up and down on my member. Kyle had pulled his dick out too and was stroking it as he sucked me. With his free hand he was squeezing my nuts, he had every nerve in my body tingling. I could feel the pressure building, I was not going to last much longer. I panted, “I’m going shoot.” Kyle tightened the grip his lips had on my cock as I filled his mouth with my cum. He was smiling as he swallowed every drop and licked his lips. I looked down at his cock, he gave it one more stroke and shot his load all over his stomach and hand. He brought his cum covered hand to his mouth and licked it clean. He found his shirt and wiped his stomach off, pulled up his underwear and said, “thanks I needed a little practice before I see my boyfriend next week.” We crawled into our sleeping bags and Kyle was snoring a minute later. I was trying to understand what had just happened, wait, did he say boyfriend?

I said, “oh my God, Uncle Joe just got his first blow job.”

My wife thought for a moment, “have you noticed how he is progressing. He started with masturbating alone, then with Tim, then the hand job with Randy and now the oral from Kyle.”

I paused, “wow, I guess you’re right. I’m not sure I am ready for the first time he sucks a dick or if he takes it in the ass.”
