Fred and the Eventful Eurotrip

Lukáš and I walked down Korunní. It was a very nice evening. Warm and comfortable. We both wore T-shirts and jeans. It was the first time I was going out in Prague with Lukáš. After work all he wanted to do was work out and relax. I tried to get us to go eat in a restaurant, but he seemed quite strict with his diet now that he wasn’t on holiday anymore.

I knew Lukáš must have been tired after working four days in a row at his welding job. But he came across quite energized. We were about to meet Martin and Jiři at this gay club they had picked out.

Lukáš had his arm wrapped around my waist as we walked. I smiled as I looked at him. He smiled back. I had felt so connected to him these past few days, as I realized I was following Martin’s advice. I was trying not to worry about the future too much just yet.

“Did you go to this club before?”, I asked him.

“Yes. Two times. I think.”

“Is it a big club, like in Ibiza?”

He laughed.

“No! Small!”

I had been so impressed with Lukáš’s progress when it came to his English. He had been playing on that app so much and it was starting to pay off. He still had to look things up regularly and he still made mistakes, but it was much better than I remembered it in Ibiza.

We took a right, and soon we were there. TerMIX it was called. We walked down a small staircase and entered a very colorful room. We got a nod and a smile from a bartender. It was indeed quite a small club. There weren’t that many people, but it was still quite early. It looked like it would be a fun spot to go dancing. Lukáš took my hand and walked me to a spot in the back where people were just sitting and talking. That’s where I saw Martin and Jiři.

“It’s just a nice quiet place to get a drink and talk about gay stuff”, Martin said.

I laughed.

“It’s more of a cocktail bar during the week than it is a club. On Friday and Saturday this place gets supercrowded.”

“I guess we’ll have to come back!”

As Jiři and Lukáš spoke to each other in Czech, Martin asked me about how I was feeling now.

“Much better, thanks! You really helped.”

“Good!”

“Especially this first week I’m just feeling it out. I feel so connected to him. It’s still a little weird to be here sometimes”, I said, “like I’m sort of in a rhythm as if I’m home, but it doesn’t feel like that?”

Martin laughed.

“Well, it isn’t! Yet!”

I looked at him. He laughed. He was kidding.

“Say that to Fred!”, Jiři suddenly said in English.

Lukáš looked at me and then Martin. He chuckled.

“I say… I just like great person. Why is now a big thing?”

I didn’t understand.

“He don’t like that is now big announcement because he love a man and not a woman”, Jiři added. “This for gay people very… familiar.”

The L-word hadn’t really been said yet between me and Lukáš, and it hadn’t now. So I was guessing it was a translation on Jiři’s part.

“Society sort of expects you to identify in some way now that you are dating someone who isn’t of the opposite sex”, Martin agreed. “You can choose to ignore society, but people will make their own assumptions.”

Martin had to translate the last part for Lukáš. After nodding, he talked back to Martin in Czech.

“I really think Fred should be the one to hear that first”, Martin then answered. He smiled and drank his beer.

I looked at Lukáš.

“I look… online. And I think I am… pansexual?”

“That is great!”, I said. I was so happy for him. I pulled him close and kissed his cheek. He smiled and kissed me on the mouth.

“It’s not an easy label for people to understand”, Martin said, “especially not your colleagues. Or your parents.”

Lukáš chuckled and covered his face. He then turned to me.

“Sunday. I go to parents’ house and eat. I want you to come please.”

“Of course!”

“They know nothing yet.”

“It’s OK. I’ll be there and help you.”

Martin and Jiři were so helpful. The four of us spoke about Lukáš possibly coming out at work. Lukáš he really didn’t feel comfortable doing so at his welding job, but way more comfortable at his other job as a bouncer. Especially this co-worker he considered a good friend. We all gave him tips on how to navigate it.

As the night progressed, the club got slightly busier. We were all drinking and we talked about more fun stuff. I asked Martin and Jiři how they met, but it was a pretty boring dating app story. It was so sweet to see them interact with each other and be touchy feely. Martin had seemed more sexually reserved when we were in Ibiza, especially compared to Lukáš and Jakub, but it made total sense now that I saw what a loving relationship he had here.

Because we had so much fun, it got later than any of us wanted to. Martin had to go to work at office hours the next day, so once it was 12:30, we really needed to leave.

Martin and Jiři took a taxi home, Lukáš guided me to the metro. The 25 minute walk here had been nice, but the 10 minute walk home from Flora metro station was long enough at this point of the night.

“I have fun”, Lukáš said.

“Me too.”

It felt so good to be cuddled together in bed, both of us tired. We kissed for a while and fell asleep.

When we woke up the next morning, we got to sleep in. It felt so nice. It was Friday. I brought tea to bed for Lukáš and myself as we chatted for a while and fell asleep again. We woke up again at 10:00 and just casually hung out together at his house, naked. Every time Lukáš was with me, I felt at home. But I knew that once he would leave for his job as a bouncer tonight, I would feel a little uneasy.

“Why do you have two jobs?”, I asked him out of nowhere as I watched his big butt walk around the kitchen making us some toast.

He turned around. I couldn’t place his expression.

“Is… good question.”

He continued to make me a nice breakfast as without looking at me he told me the story.

“I have sister. Tereza. She two years older.”

I knew Lukáš was 28.

“Tereza have baby. Little girl. Marta.”

I thought I was asking a pretty light question, but it turns out I wasn’t.

“Marta have… leukémie?”

My mind went back to what I heard about Lukáš back in Ibiza. He had donated bone marrow to who I’m thinking now had to be Tereza’s daughter, who had died in June. Tomáš had told me this initially and I hadn’t brought it up to Lukáš.

“She very sick. Marta’s papa is away. Money was… difficult. I work. Hard. To help. So job at the club was for helping. To pay. Years ago I take job.”

Lukáš handed me a plate as he was done making breakfast.

“You are such a good man”, I said.

“Story is not over”, he then said. “You eat, get cold.”

I started on my toast with cheese and scrambled eggs. I already knew how the story ended, but I wanted him to tell it.

“It was winter when I get call from Tereza. She cry. Marta need donation. They need someone who match. She ask me. I say yes. In second. No need to think. I test. I match. I do surgery. Was in April. Still was no good. Marta die in June.”

“I am so sorry”, I said. “That is a very sad story.”

Lukáš nodded. He looked sad as he started on his own breakfast. I had never seen him this way. And even though I already knew this had happened, hearing him talk about it, made me feel even closer to him.

“You did everything you could to save her.”

“I know. Is still sad.”

He looked at me and a single tear fell from his eye before he wiped it away.

“So Tereza is paying bill from hospital. Still. Until all is paid, I take job at the club.”

“I understand.”

I took his left hand and squeezed it. All of a sudden I knew I loved Lukáš. We looked each other in the eye, but it didn’t feel like the right moment to tell him.

“I am so impressed with you. You are a great man.”

He smiled.

Lukáš didn’t like to do anything too strenuous before having to be on his feet all night. After breakfast, we cuddled on the sofa while watching TV, we fucked, after which I convinced him to go to lunch in the city. He still had a salad, but it was nice to be out in Prague with him. When we got back we watched a movie. He laid his head on my lap and I knew he drifted off about halfway through.

I’d had such a nice, simple day with Lukáš. It may have been one of my favorite days since I had been here. When he left for work and I was left by myself in his apartment from 8:30 PM, it started to feel a little weird. I just decided to watch some Netflix and go to bed early.

It was have been very early morning when I woke up and I felt Lukáš next to me. He was holding me and giving me kisses on my shoulder and neck.

“Hey”, I whispered, still keeping my eyes closed.

“Hey. Václav say he want to meet you.”

I was confused for a second. Then I realized he must have come out to his work friend. I smiled and finally opened my eyes. Lukáš had the widest smile.

“Good! I am happy to meet him.”

I kissed Lukáš as we held each other tight and soon fell back asleep.

When I woke up, Lukáš was still out cold. It made sense, he must have come home around 4 in the morning. I made sure to be quiet as I ate something and went out for a run. When I came back and very quietly shut the front door, I checked to find he was still sleeping.

I took off my clothes and turned on the shower. It felt great to feel the sweat wash off with the warm water. I always felt so good and relaxed after a run. I wondered if I should make Lukáš some breakfast or if he would still be sleeping for a while.

I dried off and walked into the living room and kitchen nude. I maybe would have liked to wear underwear, but I didn’t want to go into the bedroom and wake Lukáš. I decided not to make him breakfast, which had been a good idea, because I still hadn’t seen him by 10:00 AM.

I went to check up on him again and I could already hear some snoring as I opened the door. I sneaked to the dresser and opened it to get some underwear. The dresser inadvertently made more noise than I wanted to. The snoring stopped.

“Fred?”

“It’s just me baby, you can go back to sleep.”

I heard him moan.

“No… Sun is up. Is time.”

I stepped into my underwear as I watched Lukáš move to sit on the edge of the bed. His cock was semi-hard as it rested against his thigh.

“Good morning”, he said as he rubbed his eyes and stretched.

“Good morning”, I said as I walked over to give him a kiss.

He looked me up and down and without missing a beat grabbed my bulge.

“Underwear look nice on you”, he said.

I smiled. His cock jumped and got harder. I started to get hard as well.

My underwear was off again in a matter of seconds and Lukáš sucked my cock. He was getting better at it every time. I got so hard so fast. I had to have him.

I made Lukáš lie back on the bed, which he eagerly did. He was holding his own ankles as I fingered him. His moaning turned me on so much. His hole opened up for me so fast. This was the shortest time we had made for foreplay so far as soon my cock was inside of him.

Lukáš moaned so loudly I am sure the neighbors heard. But it was a Saturday morning, what else do people do? I fucked him harder than I had before as his big body shook back and forth on the bed. His eyes rolled up into the back of his head with pleasure as he spread his cheeks apart for my thick cock. His little dick was hard as a rock as it slapped against his stomach. It spewed some cum after only a few minutes. I couldn’t stop myself as I came while I was inside of him.

It was a quickie. Iwas so out of breath, and so was Lukáš. He pulled my arm wanting to kiss me while I was still inside of him. He wrapped his legs around my waist. He whispered in my ear.

“Fred?”

“Yeah?”

“I think… I love you.”
