How I Got My Revenge

Chapter 31

Spitroast

Carl sat down on one end of the sofa. I sat down on the other end and looked to Chris questioningly as to whether he wanted to sit in the chair or sit on the sofa in between Carl and I. He smiled knowingly and sat down between us. Carl reached over and began rubbing Chris’ thigh and asked, “Is this ok?” Chris smiled and nodded his approval. I took Chris’ chin in my hand, turned his head toward me, and began kissing him. Chris began to moan into my mouth as Carl had moved his hand up to Chris’ crotch. After a few minutes, Carl pulled off his T-shirt and then grabbed the bottom of Chris’ and began sliding it up. Chris and I broke our kiss so he could raise his arms up to allow Carl to remove his T-shirt. I took advantage of the pause to remove my own T-shirt. As I tossed my T-shirt onto the floor and turned back to the action, I was surprised to see Carl and Chris engaged in a hot-looking kiss. I grinned as my cock throbbed with approval as Carl’s hand groped Chris’ cock through his shorts.

Suddenly, we heard the doorbell! Carl looked up in horror. Actually, it was my phone, a ringtone I used for a couple contacts. I was going to ignore it but decided to at least see who was calling. It was Elijah, so I answered it. I walked into the kitchen to talk to Elijah, allowing Carl and Chris to continue. I answered, “Hey Elijah! What’s up?” Elijah said, “I know this is short notice, but I had been thinking about you, and this coming week I have no classes. What about you?” I replied, “No, we’re between semesters and I just finished some summer classes I was taking. I just have work during the evenings. Why?” Elijah said, “Oh, I forgot, you work as well as attend college. That sucks. I was hoping maybe I could come down and we could have some fun this week and next weekend.” I thought for a minute and said, “I can’t take off work all week, but let me see if I can take a couple days of vacation time. Can I call you back? I’ll see if I can take off Thursday and Friday night so we can at least have several days together.” Elijah said, “Ok, I could settle for that. I really appreciate it. I’ve missed you a lot.” A tear rolled down my cheek as I said, “Yeah, I miss you too, Elijah.” I ended the call and thought, ‘Fuck! What am I doing? I just found out how Elijah really felt about me for years and I’ve found I really do care for him, a lot. Then there’s Carl, who’s been my support through the breakup with his sister, Kayla. Now, Chris has come into my life and he’s so adorable and seems to want me and I think I want him as well. What the fuck do I do?’ I paced back and forth for a minute, then decided that I’d worry about it tomorrow. I’m already committed to giving Chris and Carl what they want tonight.

I walked out into the living room to find Carl on his knees removing Chris’ briefs. Chris looked up at me smiling and motioned me over. I stepped over next to Carl who was now between Chris’ spread legs licking his balls and the underside of his cock. Chris reached out and opened my shorts and allowed them to drop around my ankles then leaned in and began mouthing my cock through the fabric of my briefs. My cock returned to being fully hard almost immediately. Once it did, Chris glanced up at me with a twinkle in his eye and what I could make out was a grin as he continued chewing on my cock through my briefs. When he finally pulled back, the front of my briefs were soaked in Chris’ saliva and my precum. Chris then slid my briefs down my legs and around my ankles with my shorts. I stepped out of them and kicked them across the floor. I looked down at Chris whose dimples were on display. I leaned down and kissed that beautiful boy and our tongues dueled for supremacy as Chris moaned in pleasure at what Carl was doing to him below. Then I suddenly felt a warm, wet mouth on my cock. I broke my kiss with Chris and looked down at Carl who was now sucking my cock while stroking Chris’ with his left hand. Chris leaned forward and began licking my balls while Carl sucked my cock. I sighed, “Fuck, that is so hot.” Then they each put their mouths on opposite sides of my cock and began sliding their lips in unison back and forth along the length of my cock, taking turns lapping at the precum from its tip. I groaned, “That is too fucking hot. You’re going to have me cumming way too fast if you keep that up.” I pulled back before I got too close, and Carl went back to sucking Chris’ cock. I reached around Carl’s waist and unfastened his shorts and pulled the shorts and his underwear down to his knees. He assisted me in removing them. I then laid on my back and slid between Carl’s knees and licked his balls for a bit before taking his precum-leaking cock into my mouth. I heard Carl groan as I did. Carl then suggested, “Why don’t we move to your bedroom, Jeremy?”

Once we got into the bedroom, we climbed onto the bed into a triangle where Chris was sucking Carl’s cock, I was sucking Chris’, and Carl was sucking mine. I heard Chris groan, and I received a large surge of precum in my mouth as I inserted a wet finger into Chris’ rectum. Chris began working faster on Carl’s cock as he continued to moan as I added another finger. Carl pulled off my cock to take a look, and smiled approvingly at what I was doing. I soon felt a wet finger probing at my own hole. Then Carl began groaning on my cock and I knew he was receiving the same from Chris. I smiled to myself at how well things seemed to be going. I heard Chris’s moans grow louder and slightly higher in pitch, and I thought about slowing down and removing my fingers, but I was too late. Suddenly, Chris cried out, “Fuck! I’m gonna cum!” I immediately saw his ball sack tighten, and then his cock expanded and pulsed, sending a wad of his seed into my mouth. Then rope after rope of his creamy cum began filling my mouth. I didn’t bother warning Carl as Chris’s cock pulsing on my lips and his cum filling my mouth brought me over the edge as well, and I began filling Carl’s mouth with my own seed. Apparently, Carl was doing the same, filling Chris’ mouth with his seed. As our orgasm’s subsided and we caught our breath, the three of us got up on our knees and began kissing and swapping our cum with each other so that we each soon had a mixture of all three of our cum. We continued until we had consumed it all, then broke the kissing up. All three of us had cum eating grins by the time we were finished. I then suggested, “It’s still early. Why don’t we grab another drink and sit out back for a few minutes and discuss what’s next?” Carl and Chris agreed. We just slid shorts on since we were going to be out back in a mostly private area. We didn’t need underwear, especially since we were going to be naked again shortly.

As we arrived out back with our drinks, Carl said, “This evening is starting off pretty good.” Then he looked at Chris and said, “I was half expecting you to pull off my cock and start spitting out my cum.” Chris grinned, damn those dimples, and turned bright red, then asked, “Why would you think that, Carl?” Carl’s response surprised me, “Well, I’m not Jeremy.” I didn’t know what to say. Chris then said, “Carl, you saved my ass last week when I walked into the kitchen. I like you and appreciate what you did. I wouldn’t have agreed to this if I didn’t like you. Actually, you’re one of the few people who I would have agreed to do this with Jeremy.” Carl said, “Thanks, Chris. I may have saved you from being outed to Chuck, but it’s not like I saved your life or anything.” Then Chris said, “It was very important to me. Having said that, for now at least, if you’re going to fuck me, you’re going to need to wear a condom.” Carl’s jaw dropped and at first, I misunderstood why. Then Carl smiled and asked, “Did I just hear you say you’re going to let me fuck you?” Chris’ dimples were showing again as he said, “What I meant was that the only person I want breeding me is Jeremy, but you could infer that from what I said.” I then grinned and said, “I think we should all follow suit and each wear a condom no matter who we fuck tonight. If someone wants to swallow it or wear it, we’ll just have to pull out and remove the condom.” Carl then said, “Well, we all already swallowed some cum today. I think we should paint some faces next.” Chris and I both laughed. I said, “I’m ok with that.” Chris said, “I think facials look hot, especially on Jeremy, but I’m sure you’d look hot as well, Carl.” I grinned and said, “My favorite part is getting it licked off afterward. Shall we?”

We headed back inside with our stiff cocks pointing the way. We let our wet spot marked shorts drop around our ankles as soon as we entered my room. I pulled a box of condoms and lube from a compartment in my headboard and was surprised when I turned back around to find Chris climbing on the bed on all fours. He saw the surprise on my face, grinned, and said, “I thought I’d get it over with, so Carl stops drooling.” I laughed, Carl grinned and said, “Just for that, I’m going to make it long and tortuous.”  I tossed Carl a condom and the lube. He took them and set them down on the bed then climbed on the bed on his knees behind Chris. Chris and I were both caught by surprise when Carl bent down and began licking Chris’ butt cheeks. I looked on as he slowly parted those firm buns and began licking in the chasm between those buns. He began licking Chris’ balls and then lapping at the taint but teased him by skipping his rose bud and licking just above it up to his waist. He continued doing that for a while and I could see the frustration on Chris’ face. I smiled and then leaned down and kissed Chris. We swapped tongues for a bit until Chris suddenly groaned loudly against my mouth. As I pulled back from the kiss, I saw Carl’s tongue greedily lapping at Chris’ pink rose bud. Then Carl’s tongue speared into it causing Chris’ eyes and mouth to open wide in shock, “Fuck! Oh my god!” Carl grinned at Chris’ reaction and then went back to work. Chris buried his face into the blanket beneath him and began whimpering from the assault on his nether region. I took notice of Carl’s position on the bed with his knees spread wide as he continued lapping at Chris’ tight ring. I slid beneath Carl on my back and lapped at Carl’s balls for a bit before taking his cock into my mouth. Carl groaned his approval as I worked on his cock, preparing it for what was next. Chris continued whimpering until suddenly I heard him say in desperation, “Carl! Please! I am so ready for your cock in me!” Carl didn’t respond, instead he continued with his assault, apparently following through with his threat to torture Chris. I smiled to myself as I pictured the expression on Chris’ face as I heard him continuing to whimper in ecstasy.

I felt Carl move as he straightened up. I knew he was finally getting ready to fuck Chris. I slid back out from under him and watched as Carl slid on a condom. Chris looked back to see what Carl was doing. Carl grinned at him and then pushed Chris’ upper body back down. From the look on Chris’ face, I knew he wanted to say something, but thought better of it. I climbed behind Carl, wedged my stiff cock between his hard melons and looked over his shoulder while placing kisses on his neck and shoulder. Carl applied lube to his sheathed, steely cock and then inserted a lubed finger into Chris’ wet ring. Chris groaned with satisfaction as Carl worked the finger in and out, then added a second while I continued kissing his neck and lower ear. I was also sliding my precum-soaked cock in between his cheeks. Carl turned to me with a smile on his face and we kissed. Chris was now moaning as Carl worked three fingers in him, keeping his face buried in the sheets beneath him. I stepped off the bed and grabbed a couple hand towels as Carl removed his fingers from Chris. I handed Carl a towel which he used to wipe his fingers before guiding the head of his cock to Chris’ lubed hole. Chris inhaled a lung full as Carl slowly inserted his cock into him. I observed the blissful look on Carl’s face as he slowly entered Chris. Chris groaned, “Oh, fuck yes.” Soon Carl was pressed firmly against the firm, muscular buns. He waited to allow Chris to get used to him. Chris signaled he was ready by starting to rock back and forth, fucking himself on Carl’s cock. Carl was having none of that and grabbed Chris’ hips, stopping him, “Oh, no you don’t. You’ll get what I give you.” Carl winked at me as he grinned. He was following through on his threat of torture. I grinned, knowing it was going to be a slow, agonizingly amazing ride to an explosive finish for Chris. Carl began to slowly fuck Chris as Chris groaned in satisfaction. I saw his steel-hard cock had a string of precum hanging from it. As Carl continued his slow, deep fuck, Chris reached a hand toward his aching cock. Carl grabbed his wrist and said, “No! I’ll tell you if you can touch yourself!” Chris lifted his head up and looked back at Carl to reveal a wide, dimpled grin, “You really are going to torture me.” I leaned in and gave Chris a kiss before saying, “Relax and enjoy your torture, Chris.” Chris replied, “At least get up here so I can suck your cock.” I looked at Carl who nodded his head vigorously, “Yeah, let’s spit roast this young buck, Jeremy.” Chris grinned up at me as I climbed onto the bed on my knees in front of him, the began licking at my balls. As he did, I smacked him across his cheeks with my rigid cock a few times. Chris then stuck out his tongue and I slapped the head of my cock down on it before resting it there. Chris then took it into his mouth and began working it in rhythm to Carl’s fucking. I felt his tongue swirling around the underside of my cock as he did. Carl was taking long strokes and powerfully slamming back into Chris so that he was almost shoved fully onto my cock each time, which caused him to choke several times. I watched as he once again reached for his cock, only for Carl to grab his wrist and pull it away. I took Chris’ wrist from Carl and placed it on my hip and then I grabbed the other and placed it on my other hip and placed one of my hands over each of Chris’. Chris looked up at me after I did this, and I just smiled back down at him. Carl began increasing the pace of his fuck and Chris looked up at me a few times as if pleading for me to let one of his hands free so he could stroke his cock. I knew what Carl was up to though, and just smiled down at Chris and knowingly nodded. Soon the sound of Carl slamming into Chris’ buns began resounding around the room, mixing in with Chris’ whimpers and moans on my cock. I was getting close and had to fight to hold back. Suddenly, Carl stopped and directed Chris to flip onto his back, “I want to see your cute face as we finish spit roasting you.” Chris grinned, bringing out those dimples as he enthusiastically obeyed and then looked up at me as if to ask for my cock to be shoved back in his mouth. I obliged as I pumped my cock into his mouth while my balls bounced on his nose. Chris kept his hands away from his cock by grabbing my butt cheeks and squeezing them as we pumped our stiff cocks into him. His moans suddenly increased in both volume and pitch and Carl grinned at me mischievously. Then Chris’ cock shot a wad of cum onto his chin. The next hit me on my abs, followed by one on my solar plexus. He continued to shoot several more, mostly on his own chest. Chris’ spasming hole around Carl’s cock brought him to the edge and he quickly pulled out of Chris’ quivering hole and slid off the condom.  I watched as the scene unfolded before me as Chris’ cum dripped from my abs onto his forehead. I knew my orgasm was fast approaching. Meanwhile, Carl was climbing up and across Chris’ waist as I pulled my cock from Chris’ mouth. I slid around beside Chris’ head as Carl settled across his abdomen. We both aimed our cocks in the direction of Chris’ face. He was grinning up at us with a glob of his own cum slowly running down his forehead toward his nose. Then Carl grunted as a rope of cum shot out of his cock and spattered across Chris’ right cheek, temple and in his hair. I yelled, “Fuck yeah!” as a rope of my own cum hit Chris across his left cheek. Fortunately, he had closed his eyes after Carl’s first volley because both of his eyes were being covered in cum along with the rest of his face and hair. He continued to smile as both of our seed was seeping between his lips and through his teeth. I had to grin as both dimples had puddles of cum collecting in them. As our cocks slowly finished pushing out our baby batter, we caught our breath. Chris’ tongue slipped out of his mouth and collected the cum around his mouth and then Carl and I both bent down and began licking the cum from Chris’ face. Chris giggled as our tongues tickled his nose. I gave him a kiss and shared some of the cum I had collected and then Carl did the same. We repeated this until we had consumed most of the cum. Carl then said, “That was so fucking hot!” Chris said, “Yeah, it was fire!” I agreed, “Pretty intense. Let’s get a shower and then have another drink before round three.”  As we got up and the three of us headed to my shower, Chris asked, “So, who’s up next?” Carl asked, “What do you mean?” I responded, “I think what Chris is getting at is that he just got spit roasted by us and now he wants to be able to have his turn. Am I right, Chris?” Chris grinned and said, “You pretty much summed it up.” Carl smiled and said, “I guess I’m open to that. Let’s talk about it after we’re done with our shower.” We horsed around a little bit during our shower. Carl and I both tickled Chris. He squirmed and laughed while trying to get away, to no avail. We then made Chris feel special as Carl and I both washed his hair and then soaped him up before he rinsed off. All three of us were hard as we stepped out and dried off. Before stepping out of my ensuite, Carl said, “I don’t know about you two, but I’m just slipping on a pair of boxers.” I looked at Chris and he just shrugged.

We walked out back, all three of us wearing only boxers. I let Chris wear a pair of mine. We added a few more logs to the fire. The sun was just beginning to set. As we sipped our drinks, Carl said to Chris, “It took a lot to hold back from cumming much sooner than I did. You’re one hot fuck and watching Jeremy’s cock pumping your mouth while I fucked you was incredible.” Chris smiled and turned red. I said, “Carl’s right. You did look hot as hell. I’m glad you decided to do this with us, Chris.” Chris said, “I was a little hesitant at first, but it was fun. I enjoyed it but I still don’t want to be the only one spit roasted tonight.” Carl asked, “So, which of the two of us do you think should get spit roasted?” I grinned and asked Carl, “Want to flip for it?” Chris grinned and said, “I like the sound of that but why don’t you flip to see which of you gets spit roasted first.” Carl and I looked to each other. I said, “So you’re saying we both get spit roasted. I guess that’s fair. We do have time.” Carl said, “Yeah but we might be tapped out by the time we’re done.” I grinned and said, “Speak for yourself, old man.” Carl quickly finished his drink and threw his ice on me, saying, “Fucker!” as he did. Chris and I both laughed as I threw the ice from my lap. I then asked, “So who gets to be the top for these spit roasts? Carl already topped you.” Carl spoke up, “Jeremy has a good point.” Chris said, “Yeah. I hadn’t thought that far ahead. I’d love to return the favor and fuck you, Carl, but that would mean Jeremy would have to fuck himself.” We all laughed, and I said, “Are you telling me to go fuck myself?” Chris grinned, those damn dimples, “Well, to make it fair, I guess I would fuck you, Jeremy and you would fuck Carl. We just have to figure out who goes first.” Both Carl and I said simultaneously, “I’ll go first.” We all laughed. I said, “Let’s go back inside and we’ll have you flip a coin.”

I won the toss or lost it, depending on your point of view. I was about to get spit roasted. Unlike Chris, who was nervous at first, I intended to enjoy every minute. As soon as Chris turned over the coin and announced, “Tails!”, we let our boxers fall to the floor. Chris wanted me on all fours as he had been to start with and Carl immediately climbed on the bed in front of me with a big grin on his face and his stiff cock in mine. I took it into my mouth as I waited for Chris to begin fingering me. I was shocked as I suddenly felt his tongue licking my buns, slowly getting closer to the valley between them. He was soon licking up from my taint to the small of my back, gliding over my rosebud as he did. I moaned my approval on Carl’s cock. My moans increased in pitch as I felt Chris’ tongue plunge into me. Carl said, “Go for it, Chris!” After a few minutes, Chris pulled back and I felt a lubed finger probing me instead, soon followed by a second. I was anxious to get Chris’ cock inside me. I didn’t have to wait long as I soon felt his condom-sheathed and lubed, stiff shaft sliding between my buns. I pushed back into it showing my desire to have him inside me. Chris got the message as I soon felt the head of his cock pressing into me. I pushed back, taking him inside me. He slowly sank into me until he was pressed firmly against my buns. Chris said, “I love your tight hole wrapped around my cock, Jeremy.” I pulled off Carl’s cock long enough to say, “Fuck me, Chris!” Chris then began fucking me and he and Carl got into a rhythm as they spit roasted me. I was loving every minute of it as I took the length of Chris cock inside me and as he tugged back, I was taking Carl’s shaft down my throat until my nose pressed into his blond pubes. Carl said, “Fuck, this is so fucking hot!” I could feel and hear as Chris slapped into my butt cheeks as I moaned in pleasure on Carl’s cock which was pouring salty sweet precum into my mouth. My own cock was aching for release, but I held off touching it. I jumped as I felt a hand grasp my aching cock. Chris then said, “Dang, Jeremy, you’re leaking a lot.” His hand was soon gliding on my cock, lubed up from my own precum. All of a sudden, Carl pulled his cock from my mouth, “Shit! I’m cumming!” He moved back slightly and then ropes of cum began splattering across my face as he unloaded his seed. Then Chris quickly pulled out of me and yelled, “Jeremy! Quick. On your back! Gonna cum!” I quickly flipped over, realizing Chris was about to blow. He was still pulling off the condom as he crawled up across my waist. No sooner did he toss the condom aside than his cock was blasting his seed across my face and hair. Chris was breathing heavily as he said, “Oh my god! Fuck! Oh, shit!” As Carl and Chris caught their breath, Chris looked down at me grinning with those dimples and said, “Oh my god! When I saw Carl cumming on your face it took me over the edge so quickly. I almost came inside you. Oh, shit! You didn’t cum yet!” Chris slid back and took my hard shaft into his mouth wanting to have me cum. All the while, their cum was running down my face. I heard Carl chuckling and then he said, “What a rookie.” He was referring to Chris. I had a different perspective; Chris was more concerned with making sure that I got off than anything else. He was thinking about me. Just that thought had me feeding him my seed. He stayed on my cock until the last of it trickled out and then sat up grinning at me. Carl shook his head and said, “My bad. I lost it seeing Chris here drilling you like a pro. Now let’s get you cleaned up.” Chris immediately leaned down and surprised me with a cummy kiss. He apparently saved some of my own cum. We snowballed it for a little before he broke the kiss and he and Carl then began licking their own cum from my face. Of course, they took turns sharing it with me and each other.

We skipped the shower this time and just slid our boxers on and grabbed a drink before heading out to the dwindling fire. I added a couple more logs as we sipped our drinks. Carl said, “Damn, Chris, you were really giving it to Jeremy. I almost wish you were going to be the one fucking me.” Chris grinned and said, “Another time, maybe. By the way, I enjoyed every minute of your torture.” Carl and I laughed, and I said, “I could tell. The expression on your face was priceless and so fucking hot.”

The finale was kind of a combination of the first two sessions. I gave Chris a wink before diving in to prep Carl for my cock. Chris broke out into a huge grin when Carl turned back to me and said, “Jeremy, please, just fuck me already.” I hadn’t even stuck a finger in him yet. By the time I had slid on a condom, lubed it up and pressed it to his hole, he practically impaled himself on my cock. Chris and I then proceeded to spit roast Carl. Chris and I were smiling at each other almost the entire time. We almost didn’t have to do much as Carl was rocking back and forth taking my cock inside his ass with a slap and then diving forward onto Chris’ cock down to his pubic bush. When Carl began to slow, Chris and I took over. Then Chris gave me a look and I knew he was getting close. We had Carl flip onto his back. He immediately raised his legs and tilted his head back. Chris didn’t stick his cock in his mouth right away. I think he was too close to cumming and wanted to hold off for a bit. Carl reached back and pulled Chris toward him by the back of his legs and then began licking at Chris’ balls. Chris smiled and enjoyed the tongue bath Carl was giving his nuts as his cock oozed a string of precum which slowly made its way onto Carl’s chin and neck. Meanwhile, I had resumed fucking Carl in deep hard strokes, as my crotch slapped against his ass. I was getting close and signaled to Chris who then quickly pushed his cock back into Carl’s mouth. Carl began grunting on Chris’s cock louder and I knew he was getting close as well. I reached down and took his cock in my hand, scooping up the pudle of precum his cock had deposited on his abs as I did. After only a few strokes, Carl moaned loudly on Chris’ cock. I felt Carl’s cock expand and grow harder and then rope after rope of cum blasted from Carl’s cock, painting his chest, abs, and chin. Chris yelled, “Fuck! That’s so fire! I’m cumming, too!” He quickly pulled out of Carl’s mouth, and he began to step back, but didn’t have time to get beside Carl as his cock unloaded across Carl’s head, painting his hair, forehead, and cheeks in his creamy white baby batter. Then I pulled out of Carl and pulled off the condom and quickly straddled Carl’s waist and blasted my own baby makers all over Carl’s face. Carl’s eyes were closed as he had cum steaks across both eye lids. He laughed and said, “How the fuck did you guys have that much cum left in you?” I said, “You’re one to talk. You gave yourself a pretty good cum shower.” I looked up at Chris and saw the huge, dimpled grin on his face. He said, “I guess we saved the best for last.” Carl smiled and said, “I guess. Speaking of cum and showers, could somebody guide my blind ass to the shower?” I looked at Chris and he grinned. I said, “Not before your tongue bath.” Chris and I both then leaned down and began licking the cum from Carl. Carl pitched in and got what he could with his tongue. After slurping up our cum and swapping it back and forth between us, we climbed off the bed and got in the shower once more. This time, Chris and I shampooed Carl’s hair and soaped him up before tending to each other.

After drying off somewhat, we slid into another pair of boxers, grabbed a drink and went out back again. It was already after one in the morning, so I only threw two logs on the coals. They caught fire pretty quickly. It was getting a little cool out, so the heat from the fire felt nice. Carl then asked Chris, “So, what do you think of threesomes now?” Chris smiled, “I was a little nervous at first, but I had a really good time tonight.” I said, “I’m really glad you did. It was fun.” Carl then said, “A lot of fun, but I’m going to finish this and head into bed.” I looked over at Chris and he nodded. I said, “Yeah, we’re going to do the same.” Chris then motioned his head in Carl’s direction and shrugged. I picked up on what he was thinking, and I said, “Since the three of us played together tonight, If you want to, Carl, we can all share my bed for the night. Carl turned to us with a smile on his face and said, “That would be a great ending for the night.” We sat quietly after that, just enjoying each other’s company until the fire burned out. I put the steel mesh cover over it so nothing could blow out and catch anything on fire from the hot coals and we went inside. We crawled into bed and Carl and Chris were on either side of me. We rolled on our sides, and I ended up being the big spoon to Chris and the little spoon to Carl.

The next morning, I awoke in the same position. It was almost eight. I thought about going back to sleep but realized we had too much to do today. I carefully removed my arm from across Chris’ chest and then extricated myself from between them. I quietly slipped out of the bedroom and went into the kitchen to make some coffee and start breakfast. A few minutes later, I heard someone enter the kitchen and turned to find Carl standing there with a smile on his face. I smiled and said, “Good morning. I hope I didn’t wake you when I got out of bed.” Carl said, “Maybe but I needed to get up anyway. We have a lot to do today.” I said, “Yeah, that’s why I didn’t just go back to sleep when I woke up even though I wanted to.” Carl then asked, “So, who called last night?” I handed Carl a cup of coffee and said, “It was Elijah. He’s off this week and wants to visit.” Carl said, “That’s great! It’s been almost a month! Wait, why don’t you look so happy suddenly?” I smiled slightly and said, “I am happy about it. It will be great to see him again. It’s just..” Carl nodded and said, “It’s Chris, isn’t it?” I replied, “And you. Things have suddenly gotten so complicated. I don’t want to hurt any of you, and I don’t want to lose any of you. Things seemed so much easier when it was just me and Kayla and now things are so much harder.” Carl said, “I know losing Kayla is difficult.” I interrupted him and said, “No, Carl. I think I’m over that. It just seems like a jumped from the frying pan and into the fire.” Carl said, “Look, Jeremy, I told you already, if you decide you’d rather be with someone else, whether it’s Chris or Elijah, I’ll understand. I’ll get over it. I’ll always be there for you when you need me. Ever since I met you when you were with Kayla, I felt like you were the little brother I never had. If it developed into something more, I was ok with that, but I never wanted to push you into that. I’d still be more than happy to have that little brother, so don’t worry about hurting me unless you don’t even want that anymore.” I suddenly said, “No! Don’t even think that, Carl. I told you before, whatever happens, we’ll always be there for each other. I mean that. It’s just so difficult. What do I choose?” Carl smiled and wiped a tear off my cheek and said, “Don’t choose anything yet. You’ve already let Elijah know that you can’t have a one-on-one relationship with him because of the distance between you. I know Chris has the hots for you, but just be honest with him and tell him you’re not ready to settle down yet. Just enjoy things as they are for now and have fun like we did last night.” Carl was smiling at me and I returned the smile. He then drew me into a tight hug and said, “I’ll always be here for you, Jeremy, and I trust you will always be there for me, no matter what happens.” As we broke the hug, we were both smiling but we both also had tears running down our cheeks. “What’s the matter? Is something wrong?”, Chris was standing in the doorway and must have seen our tears. We were both still smiling and after wiping the tears from our eyes, Carl said, “No, nothing is wrong, Chris. We were just sharing something deep between brothers. Want to help us finish making breakfast?” Chris said, “Sure.”

We ate breakfast and then went over to the Reynolds’ place to do yardwork for them. Mrs. Reynolds was thrilled to see that we had brought Chris along. He tried to keep his distance this time. After we finished, Mrs. Reynolds brought out lemonade again. She had us set our glasses down on the tray when we had emptied the glasses. She insisted on giving us each a hug before we left. I grinned as I noticed Chris jump while she was hugging him. She had pinched his butt again. When he turned toward us, he was bright red and grinning. I was the last one to hug her and I’ll be damned if she didn’t pinch my butt too and then grabbed a handful before releasing her hug. She then turned and grabbed the tray while chuckling as she went back into the house. Then I noticed Mr. Reynolds in the doorway and as Mrs. Reynolds passed him by, he stepped out to Chris and I, and said, “You’ll have to pardon her. She gets a little frisky around young men, especially ones as handsome as you boys. Bless her heart. I love the hell out of her. Thank you again for all you do for us. I know you won’t take anything for it, but we really appreciate the help.” As he turned to go back inside, I said, “It’s our pleasure, Mr. Reynolds, and we don’t mind Mrs. Reynolds flirting at all. It’s charming.” He turned and chuckled, then waved before closing the door. As Chris and I walked back to the car where Carl was waiting, Chris said to me, “They really are a sweet old couple.” I smiled and said, “Yeah, they are. I’m glad they’re our landlords and I’m happy to do yardwork for them for free. Our rent is pretty cheap compared to what they could ask.” We went back home and did our own yard work and then made burgers for lunch. As Carl was mowing the lawn, I said to Chris, “Hey, uh, a friend of mine is coming to visit later this week. He’ll be staying through the weekend.” Chris responded, “Oh, that’s ok. I can try to catch up on next semester’s reading list. I” I put my finger across his mouth and said, “Like I was saying, you met him the other week at basketball. If you’d like, you could come over and hang out with us.” Chris said, “There were two of them.” I said, “Yeah, they’re pretty much best friends but Josh isn’t coming. Elijah said he had other things to do this week.” Chris grinned and asked, “So Elijah. Is he the one with dimples like mine or the one with the butt like yours.” I laughed and said, “He’s the one with the butt like ours.” Chris grinned with his dimples. I said, “He does mess around and maybe if you want, we could have a little fun.” Chris said, “I don’t know. I mean it was great with you and Carl, but someone else…” I said, “It’s not like he’s going to out you or anything. His campus is fifty miles from here. Besides, he’d never think about saying anything to anyone. He’s pretty much just finding things out like you and I.” Chris said, “I’ll think about it.” I said, “That’s all I can ask. It would be fun.” I stared in his eyes to let him know it would mean a lot to me. He smiled knowingly and said, “I’ll let you know.” He stared back in my eyes and I’m not sure how long we were doing it when Carl yelled, “When are you two going to come back down to earth!” We both jumped. We hadn’t even noticed the lawn mower had shut off. We grinned and turned red before getting up. Carl said, “I grabbed us each a beer. Let’s relax for a while.”

We ended up sitting out front for a change of pace. Some neighbors waved as they passed by walking their dogs. Some complemented us on how well the property looked since we moved in. Several college girls stopped and chatted with us or more correctly, flirted with us. Our nearest neighbors came up the walkway with their yellow lab and the girls decided to leave. Our neighbors said they were worried when they saw us moving in that there would be loud parties and all kinds of other things going on but thanked us for being the best neighbors they could have hoped for. We continued to talk as Chris petted and hugged Duck, the yellow lab. After the neighbors left, we went back inside, and Chris got ready to leave. As he gathered his things from my bedroom, I walked in and said, “I really hope you decide to hang out with us.” Chris smiled and said, “I’m leaning toward it, especially after the time I had this weekend. Thanks. I think as long as I’m with you, it will always be a good time.” I had to fight back a tear, “Thanks. That means a lot.” Chris then grinned and said, “Oh, I uh, um, will return your boxer briefs when I return. I borrowed a pair this morning. I hope you don’t mind.” I laughed and said, “At least you told me. I’m hoping Elijah returns those he took with him last time he was here.” Chris gave me a surprised look, “Those? What does that mean?” I laughed and said, “When I told him I was missing a few pair of underwear, he said he wanted to wash them before giving them back.” What I didn’t say is that one of the pair were ones I had worn before they had disappeared. Anyway, we ended up kissing goodbye in my bedroom and I then walked him out to his car. Carl came out to see him off as well and said, “I’m looking forward to your next visit.”, then he said in a quieter voice, “Maybe a foursome.” Chris turned bright red before getting into his car and heading home. As we stepped back into the house, I grabbed Carl into a hug and said, “Thank you.” Carl asked, “For what?” I just said, “For being you, big brother.” Carl squeezed me back and said, “You’re welcome. But don’t sell yourself short, little bro. You’re awesome or as Chris would say, fire.” We went into the living room and cuddled on the sofa and watched a movie before going to bed.
