The story will be moving forward some. We will be keeping up with the guys as prom approaches. This will be an interesting time for all our characters and their development. I do apologize for getting behind. My plan is to try to get a chapter per week. I hope you enjoy, as always, I love the feedback.
This week things had changed a bit. Upon the suggestion of my mom, we had swapped out the king size bed, and two queen sized beds were delivered today. We had set them up and gotten everything settled in. There were also two desks and all to go with them. I think mom’s idea was that we could each have our own space on opposite sides of the room. However, we put both desks in front of the window together and the beds on the opposite wall. Neither Hudson nor I was fond of the idea of two beds, but we also could not argue, because that might have looked a bit odd. So, we went with it. No words were exchanged, although I really wondered if two beds would ever get slept in. The weather had warmed quite a bit and we were in the last week of April, there was a lot going on in the next few weeks, this weekend was prom, next weekend was the state baseball tournament begins and then there was graduation of the seniors, and that would make us officially the “new” seniors of the school. Rose was going to graduate, and she could finally be off to date her choice of softball players. Ha. There was still some tension in the air with Tara looming. She had admitted she was not pregnant; she was just trying to get Hudson’s attention. He was way too nice about this. He told her that he would still be in her life as a friend, but nothing more. I sort of thought this was a slippery slope, however, I was sticking to my hands off approach.
Hudson and I were finishing up chores it was getting dark by now and he stopped by the barn and said, “do you hear that”. I stopped and said, “what”, he said, “shh, hang on”, and he went into the barn. He came out holding a small tri-color calico kitten. I looked at him and said, “umm what is that”. He said, “it’s a kitten, what does it look like”. I said, “ok well that’s odd”. The kitten looked to be about 6 weeks old. He turned it around and proclaimed I think it’s a boy. The kitten then snuggled in Hudson’s arms. I knew that kitten felt safe there, Hudson said, “he’s purring”. I looked at the kitten and said, “I get it kitty, I get it”. We finished helping with chores went in the house. Hudson, took the kitten up to our room and into the bathroom, he said, “do we have any cat food”. I said, “let me check I think there is some in the garage grams used to feed strays”. I went and found some canned food, and grabbed a foil pan, some bowls, and pine shavings that mom used for mulch. Mom seen me and said, “do I want to know”. I just chuckled and said, “Hudson found a kitten in the barn”. She just said, “oh lord, well let me know if I need to go get anything”. I hurried upstairs and into the bathroom. We set everything up for him. He ate some and then went and curled up on the hoodie that Hudson had taken off. We left and went to do some homework.
We were setting at our desks when Hudon looked over at me. I could sense he was uncomfortable. I said, “what’s wrong”. He didn’t reply, he just got up and moved his stuff to my desk and continued working. Then I felt his foot, calf, and knee pressing against mine at first, they were bouncing and about 5 seconds in he stopped, and exhaled. Then just continued working. Maybe I must admit his touch slowed my heart rate. We both just worked in silence, at times he would ask a question about a problem, or I would ask him a question. There was a connection here, it was physical and emotional. I am not sure just how deep it went for him yet, but I sensed it was much like mine.
The dryer buzzed and I was about to get up, but Hudson popped up and we to get the towels. He brought them back and dumped them on one of the beds. He just started folding them. When he was finished, he took them into the bathroom. He said, “which shelf do they go on again”. I said, “any of them is fine”. He was in there quite a while, likely playing with the kitten. I finished up my work and said, “you good in there”. He said, “uh, yeah sorry, just umm organizing and bonding”. He came out and I noticed his face was kinda flushed. I didn’t give it much thought. Just then mom said, “dinner”. We headed down to eat. We talked about the day, and what was coming up this week and prom for the weekend. After dinner we cleaned the kitchen and instead of going to watch tv I headed back upstairs. I needed to use the bathroom. I went in, closed the door, the kitten was fast asleep with a full belly. Hudson went up and was helping Jimmy with some homework. I used the bathroom and decided to see just how he had arranged the towels and closet. I opened the door and noticed the towels were neatly arranged on the shelf. I was about to close the door and noticed the drawer at the bottom was open a bit. Oh no! In that drawer I kept um some private things. I had honestly forgot about. I should have cleaned it out. Oh my. So, I opened the drawer. Clearly Hudson had seen what was in there. It contained a dildo, fleshlight and lube. But also, it had a shoe box in the back. It appears it had been opened too. Oh, did I have some explaining to do. I took a deep breath and opened the bathroom door. Hudson was right outside. He was grinning but then said, “damn close the door and leave the fan on that stinks”. I first said, “maybe it was the kitten” then I laughed and said, “like you poop roses”. I closed it up and went to set on the bed.
Hudson set down beside me and said, “I’m sorry, I have to confess something”. I said, “well I think I need to explain a few things too”. He said, “ummm ok, I want to go first”. I let him. He said, “I am sorry when I was putting the towels away, I opened the drawers and um in the bottom one was umm some stuff”. I laughed, and said, “yeah, there is”. He just said, “I’m sorry for snooping”. I said, “well Hud remember, what’s mine is yours”. He just laughed and said, “well uhh there was one thing in there I will not be using of yours”. I chuckled and said, “which one”. He replied, “well I’ve never used a fleshlight, but Aus, does that other thing fit”. It was my turn to laugh, and blush. I said, “um, sort of, I used it a few times, and ummm well, yeah it did, eventually”. He said, “so, you ummm like things up there”. Wow, this is certainly not where I seen this evening going. So, I said, “honestly, yeah I’ll just put it out there, yes, I like things going up there”. He said, “interesting”. He then said, “about the shoe box”. Ugh, that was going to be much more complicated. I said, “ok hear me out”. “It is just stuff that I kept over the years”. I felt his hand on my knee. He then got up and went into the bathroom. He reemerged with the box. He set on the bed beside me and opened it up. Inside were pictures, medals, newspaper clippings, and some baseballs. He then set the box on the floor. He turned to me and had tears in his eyes. The pictures were of Hudson and I; the baseballs were when we used to pretend, we were all stars and signed them for each other, the medals were when we had been on teams as far back as little league. He asked on question, “how long”. I said, “how long, what”. He said, “how long have you known”. I said, “Hudson, I’ve known my for a very long time that I was gay, you know that”. He said, “how long have you been in love with me”. My breath hitched, and tears formed in my eyes. I just said, “I’m sorry”. He put his hands on each side of my face and said, “I’ve loved you in some form since you shared you school supplies way back in elementary school, first as a friend, then as a brother, now as, something more”. I said, “Hudson, I have loved you as long as I can remember, it has only grown stronger, I just don’t know how to keep those feelings in check or separate”. He then kissed me and said, “why do we have to keep them in check, we are both consenting adults, and I don’t want to keep things separate anymore”. He then kissed me. This time the kiss was different, it was full on, electric and one that set my world on fire.
We broke from the kiss just in time to be jumped on by our new friend that had emerged from the bathroom. He jumped right up on the bed and started doing that little paw thing cats do to “soften” their bed. He did a circle or two then lay down. We both chuckled and Hudson said, “well make yourself at home”. And he did. Just then mom knocked on the door and in unison we said, “come in”. Mom came in and closed the door, she looked at us setting on the bed and the box on the floor, and back at us. She just said, “so what are two going to do with um”. Hudson chimed in, “him”. She said, “what are you going to do with him”. Hudson said, “well, maybe umm a new family member”. Mom just smiled, and hugged him and said, “momma would be very proud, this is probably a baby of one of the many strays she fed around here”. She then laughed and said, “who would have thought two big, tough, athletes would be so taken by a little kitten”. Hudson looked at me and said, “well seems like I’m just paying it forward, y’all took me in, and now I’m, well we are taking him in”. She just smiled and said, “sounds perfect”. She then went on to say we would probably need to keep him in a small space like the bathroom or bedroom to feel comfortable and get used to here. Hudson nudged me and said, “it didn’t take me long to get used to it here”. I just snickered and said, “yeah, I noticed”.
We got ready for bed, brushed our teeth, changed laundry, and got back in the room. I went to what was now my bed and without clothes crawled in. I seen Hudson standing there naked thinking. He pet the kitty, and pulled the covers back on the other bed. He settled in and the kitten snuggled up to him. I just smiled and said, “good night Hud, love ya, and good night kitty”. Hudson said, “night Aus, love ya, then then kissed the kitten”. I felt a pang of jealousy that he wasn’t kissing me. I was laying there almost asleep and I heard Hudson, soflty say, “Aus, I can’t sleep, can we come over”. I just chuckled and said, “we”. He said, “yeah you know Max and me”. I said, “Max eh”. He said, “yeah he was my favorite pitcher growing up Max Scherzer”. I said, “sure come on over”. Over came Hudson and Max. Hudson crawled in bed and his warmth comforted me, he placed Max on the bed and spooned up behind me. He wrapped his arm around me and kissed my neck. Then he said, “can we talk more about the drawer”. I said, “the box”. He said, “no the drawer”. I said, “oh”. He said, “tell me more how your um like things inside you”. I said, “right to the point”. He said, “honesty between us only right”. I said, “yes, so yeah I have played around back there and it felt good, at first I used my finger and then, well I ordered some toys online and well started experimenting”. He said, “toys, are there more”. I said, “yeah in the closet, a few more”. He said, “that’s awesome Aus, was that why you were playing with your um self like that in the shower”. I said, “my ass, yes”. He said, “that was so hot, and when I humped your cheeks that was too”. He then said, “sometime can I um watch while you put one of your toys in there”. I chuckled and said, “yeah you can Hud”. I felt his stiffening cock behind me. Then he said, “um have you ever had um anything besides a toy in there”. I said, “like a guy”. He said, “yeah like when you were at camp, or ummm Cole”. I laughed and said, “first Cole isn’t going anywhere near back there, and second Jackson isn’t either, and third, no, no one has been close to back there and I have never been with anyone, well except you kinda”. He held me tighter and said, well maybe someday when we are both ready maybe you’ll let me close back there. I was the one purring now, and groaned, “yes when we are ready maybe yeah”. He tickled me and said, “maybe”. I said, “well um that’s a big step”. He pulled me in and said, “I know Aus, I know, we are not rushing anything”. We drifted off to sleep, we woke up to a kitten setting on us batting us with his paw. I chuckled and said, “well good morning Max”, Hudson said, “we need to talk about your alarm
Mr. Max”. We got up and stretched, and made the bed back up and we headed to the bathroom, I turned on the shower. We both got in. Per usual, we both woke up with engorged erections, but we were getting pretty good at self control and self pleasure. We would sometimes jerk off together, and sometimes one would or the other. It really just seemed normal to us now. Well, this morning Hudson took my loofa and soaped it up and began scrubbing my body. Then he hung up the loofa and it was just his hands exploring my body. I was now rubbing his chest. Then he pulled me in close and I felt his hands on my ass, our hard cocks pressed between us. He planted his lips on mine, then he pulled back and I felt it, his fingers were now in my crack and making their way to my hole. I tensed up. He stopped, and said, “is this ok, can I touch you there”. I hesitated, he said, “ok later, sorry”. I said, ‘don’t be sorry, yes you can please Hud, please do”. I felt his finger trace around my hole and I quivered. Then he guided me and turned me around. He then was lightly tracing my hole and reached around and began jerking me off. I reached back and grabbed his cock and began stroking it. I said, “Hud, I’m going to”. And waves of ecstasy washed over me as I began to cum, I pushed back and Hudson’s finger slipped in, I yelped and plastered the wall with my sperm, and I heard Hudson gasp and I felt him tighten and his body was wracked with his own orgasm. For a few moments after we stood there connected. I then felt his finger retreat, and he said, “sorry, I did not mean to do that”. I said, “oh don’t apologize, it felt great”. He chuckled and said, “noted”. We finished showing and we got out and dried off. I bent over to dry my legs and Hudson just said, “beautiful”. I looked behind me and he was staring right at my ass. I felt a bit vulnerable and sexy all at once. I stood back up and said, “yes you are beautiful Hud”. He then snapped me with his towel, and we went to get dressed. It was clear Max was comfortable; he was asleep on Hudson’s bed. Could we call it that? We dressed and kissed Max and left. We let Jimmy know to keep the door shut so Loki didn’t bother Max. He said, “sure thing, but he was around cats all through his training”. We all went down and had breakfast. Cole and Jacob showed up, and we headed off to school.
We dropped off Jimmy and discussed Prom. Cole said, “we have decided we are going as a couple”. Both Hudson and I voiced our support. Hudson then looked at me and I knew that look. I gave him a wink. As we were getting out Cole and Jacob headed off and I said to Hudson, “we will have our time after prom at home, I promise”. He just smiled and blew me a kiss. As we were walking in Tara showed up and said, “Hi Hudson, are you ready to be my king at Prom”. I just had one word, “gross”. Hudson snickered and Tara just glared at me. We entered the building and I headed off to class and Tara and Hudson headed down the other hall they had first period together. I had a pang of jealousy watching her walk with him. Ok it was more than a pang, I was pissed. Just then Sara showed up and took my arm and said, “come Mr. don’t make it too obvious”. I said, “what do you mean”. She said, “well the way you look at him, come Austin, I’ve known you for a while, and um I can see how you look at him, if you are not careful others will notice too”. I just said, “oh it’s nothing we are just friends”. She laughed and said, “bullshit, you two have been connected for many years I can see it”. I stopped and looked at her and said, “please Sara”. She just said, “Austin, it’s ok, I would never say anything but be careful”. She said, “take a breath, it’s ok, you love him don’t you”. I exhaled and said, “for many years yes”. She took my hand and said, “I knew it you are perfect together”. She then said, “but does he feel the same”. My excitedness became stifled a bit, and said, “well he has to figure that out, we have talked a bit, but I am giving him time and space to figure that out”. She said, “how much space, you two share a bedroom”. I said, “shhh we are not talking about that either”. She said, “all good secrets safe”. She then made the motion to lock her lips and throw away the key. I just rolled my eyes and laughed. We got into class.
We all met at lunch today was the day we all voted on Prom King and Queen. I of course voted for Hudson and Rose, and I recruited everyone I could do to the same. The rest of the day went pretty good, however I did feel like there were daggers being hurled into my back every time Tara or her friends were around, but hey, I have broad shoulders and there was plenty of room for her to throw them as long as she got the message and left Hudson alone. Which was probably wishful thinking. After school Cole and I were going to work out and then drive to Hudson’s away game it was about 30 minutes away. Jacob was going to go with us. He was a bit hesitant because that is where his mom allegedly moved to. He said he had heard from her via text a few times, mostly bemoaning the fact that she wasn’t receiving checks from “his grandfather” anymore. It was a good workout and run, and then we piled in the Jeep and picked up Jacob and headed out. The drive was uneventful it was mostly small talk and I was inquiring a lot about how they were going to handle dancing and the promenade. Cole boastfully stated, “we are going to do everything every other couple would do, if they don’t like it fuck em”. I said, “well all righty then”. We made it to the game as warmups were ending, Hudson was not pitching today he was in right field, so we decided to set, well stand, further down the first base line. I must admit he sure looked good in that uniform. Then my head went to the shower this morning, when he touched me there. I immediately started to chub up. Whoa, put those thoughts away Austin. The game went well and Austin went 3/4 with 2 RBI’s and a stolen base. This team was good, and it was becoming clear that they would likely be on a collision course with Alex’s team somewhere along the way to hopefully a state title. After the game we talked a bit to Hudson and were going to head back home, I told him I would pick him up at school. Cole asked if we could drop them off at Jacob’s grandfathers, they were supposed to have dinner there and he had a surprise for Jacob.
I pulled down the long drive, and just then Jacob got a message and his grandfather said for them to let themselves in he was running about 30 minutes late. Jacob replied for him to drive safe, which got the reply, of I’m not driving Ted is. Ted was his grandfather’s driver and assistant and sort of all around helper. Cole and Jacob got our and went in the house. And I left. Once inside Cole pulled Jacob in for a kiss and said, “so um we have 30 minutes alone”. Jacob kissed him back and said, “mmmhmmmm, what do you have in mind”. Just then Cole squeezed his ass and said, “Oh, I think you know”. Jacob said, “you are horny man QB”, Cole said, “well I’m your horny man and ever since I felt your mouth and um you know, I can’t get enough”. Jacob laughed and said, “you can say my ass, but I think it’s cute how shy you are”. Jacob said, “let’s go up to “my” room”. They sprinted up the stairs and into the large room that Jacob claimed, but had never spent the night in. Clothes were flung off in such a hurry you’d think they were on fire. In no time Cole was on his knees with Jacob fully engulfed in his mouth. Jacob said, “oh lord, you better stop that if you want to fuck me”. Jacob then climbed upon the bed and Cole lined up behind him, he grabbed the lube he had hidden in the nightstand, and slowly pushed into him. Jacob hissed into the pillow, “fuck that feels so good, can’t get enough”. Cole slowly began sliding in and out and Jacob was furiously fisting his cock to which Cole said, “stop, I’ll take care of that when I finish, and that is about to be really quick”. He began pumping hard and fast. With a roar Cole unloaded inside him. He caught his breath and kissed Jacob on the back. Then retreated and flipped him over and immediately dove onto his cock all the way to the root. He sucked with reckless abandon. Jacob’s hips were jutting up to meet his mouth. In no time Jacob was unloading down Cole’s throat. Jacob said, “fuck that felt good, now no time to bask in the glow, shower quick”. Both ran to the shower and rinsed off quickly, then grabbed their clothes and hurried back downstairs to the kitchen just as Lloyd was entering. Jacob went over and hugged Lloyd and asked about his day. Lloyd shared a little and asked the boys what they had done, they told him about the game and school and prom coming up. Lloyd asked if they planned to attend together which Jacob said yes. Then Jacob invited him to the promenade where everyone walks in one couple at a time. He said he would love to be there, maybe he and Al would go together. Cole just chuckled. Lloyd said, “is that ok”. Cole said, “yes sir that is great, I just never thought I would see the day when my dad would be going to my high school promenade with my boyfriend’s grandfather”. Lloyd just chuckled and said, “well I never thought I’d see the day when I moved to a farm to be close to my grandsons and be going with one of my grandson’s boyfriend’s father, so there is that”. We all had a good laugh. We continued eating the Pizza that Lloyd stopped and picked up. We made a bit more small talk. Then Lloyd said, “first you boys should know there are cameras in the main part of the house, um and I do not care what you do, but please be respectful of one another”. Jacob looked over at me, and we both said in unison, “yes Sir”. Then Lloyd said, “I think if you two are going to be making a splash at the prom, then why not make it an expensive splash, I have a tailor coming tomorrow morning to take measurements and custom make you tuxes, and you can choose whatever you want”. I said, “holy crap really, they can do it that quick”. Lloyd said, “when you have spent what I have on suits over the years yes they can”. Jacob said, “thank you grandad this is very generous”. Then he said, “and um, do I need to have house cleaners tidy up your room Jacob”. Jacob blushed and said, “ummm maybe”. He said, “this once I’ll grant you some leeway as I understand you um normal teenagers”. He then said, “now I understand your friend Austin dropped you off tonight so do you need a ride back to town”. Jacob said, “yes grandad if you would not mind”. He said, “sure let’s go to the garage”. We got to the rather large, attached garage, and there was a brand-new Ford Explorer with a red bow on the hood. Jacob stood in shock, and said, “what is that, grandad I told you I did not need a car”. He said, “look I know Cole has a good truck and van, but you should be able to drive yourself places if you need to and not depend on others, and that includes coming here to see me”. Jacob just said, “grandfather thank you but, it really is not necessary, we are fine”. Lloyd just replied, “I know you are fine, I just want to help, and this summer you can work it off out here on the farm or something. They both agreed they would love to help him this summer. Jacob gave Lloyd a hug, and he came to shake my hand, and I pulled him in for a hug too. He leaned into the hug and whispered in my ear, “thank you for taking care of him”. When the embrace ended, I replied, “absolutely it is easy when I love him so much”. We headed back home.
I beat the bus back to the school and was waiting on Hudson when they arrived. He did not bother going to the locker room he headed straight for the Jeep, and climbed in. I looked at him and said, “hey handsome”. He winked and said, “hey cutie”. We left the parking lot and I said, “want to grab pizza”. He said, “hell yeah”. We grabbed a couple pizzas and headed to the farm. We pulled in and in a flash, Hudson ran in the house and upstairs to our room. I grabbed the pizzas and made my way to the kitchen. Everyone else had eaten. I heard Hudson from upstairs, “hey Aus, get up here you gotta see this”. I scurried up the stairs and got to the door. There on the bed was Loki curled up in a ball with Max tucked under his chin. Just then Jimmy came out of his room, and said, “sorry guys but Loki was whining and scratching at the door, so I let him in and well the rest is best friend history”. We just chuckled and I joked, “well Hud, guess you lost your bed”. Jimmy snickered and said, “yeah like he’s gonna sleep in a separate bed anyhow”. Hudson looked at me and we both looked at Jimmy. He said, “what, it’s kinda hard to hide some things when we sleep 20 feet from one another”. Hudson said, “Jimmy um, I’m uhhh”. Jimmy said, “in love with your best friend”. Hudson said, “dude, shhhhh”. Jimmy said, “look you two do you, clearly you are happy and that’s all that matters”. I just said, “little man you are wise beyond your years, but please can you keep this secret for us”. He said, absolutely, but can we share Max, cuz I like Loki to sleep with me, and I don’t think he’ll leave him”. Hudson said sure, just make sure to put a litter box in your bathroom and make sure you keep your door closed until he’s comfortable”. Jimmy responded, “oh I’d say hes comfortable here”. We all laughed. We went back downstairs and had some pizza and then back up to bed. Jimmy took Max and Loki with him. Hudson went into shower and I brushed my teeth, then stripped off. I went to bed. Hudson came out and dried off, then didn’t even hesitate just came straight to the bed with me. I put my phone down, and he kissed me on the cheek. I said, “hey there”. He said, “well hi”. We lay there just enjoying each other for a few moments. He broke the silence and said, “so it was really ok that I um stuck my finger in your butt”. I just laughed and said, “um ha yeah, it was good Hud”. He said, “ok, just making sure, I don’t want to be weird or do something wrong”. I said, “I do not think you could do anything wrong with me Hud”. He just said, “well I never plan to try”. He wrapped his arms around me and I held his hands close to my chest. He kissed my neck and said, ‘love you good night Aus”. I replied, “love you too Hud”.
