| ***WARNING: I
know people come to this site to enjoy the content of the
erotic stories. But this chapter deals with a lot of stuff
in homosexual intercourse that is rarely discussed in a medium
like this. Beware! These are some very unpleasant subjects.
If you can get past the queasy contents, however, I think
the payoff is very satisfying***
Four years, they have known each other. Two years, full of
undeniable sexual tension and unstated mutual feelings. A
whole year they barely spoke to one another. And now, finally,
when it seemed least likely, Woody Anderson and Ethan White
were together.
At the moment, the only thing in the way of their relationship
was Kimora Gillespie. With enough casual persuasion from Ethan,
Woody gathered enough will to ask the girl out to the park
where he would, as civilly as possible, break up with her.
Still afraid of what she might do to herself after the breakup,
given her history of self-inflicting wounds, Woody brought
Ethan along for support. There was no way to avoid hurting
Kimora’s feelings, but at least if she saw how much
they were in love, perhaps she would understand and not feel
so badly about herself.
But as always, Kimora surprised Woody.
“Oh my god, that’s so cool,” she said jumping
up and down and drawing the two boys into a hug, “I’ve
been hoping you two get together!”
“Really?” asked Ethan, “You barely know
me…”
“Yeah, but I’ve heard so much from Reed about
you two…I was thinking, hmmm, if we should ever break
up, I hope Woody get together with Ethan. And he DID!”
“Wow,” said Woody, shaking his head in total
awe of how well she was taking it, “You’re just
amazing. I’m so glad you’re okay with this.”
Kimora laughed, “I’m more than okay. I’m
ecstatic! I mean, this is the best thing in the world.”
Woody thought this was too easy and tried to pinch himself
out of the dream, “I’m still sorry that we had
to end our relationship…Honestly, it was great the times
we spent together, and that night when all we did was talk,
I thought it was wonderful. And I hope we can still be friends.”
“Absopositivelylutely!” said Kimora, “I
also hope I become friends with you, Ethan.”
“I do too.” Ethan smiled.
Breaking up with Kimora had been a lot easier than Woody
had anticipated, and now it was time to tell their friends.
Reed Valentine who had a one-way love interest with his best
friend was saddened, but not surprised, when he learned of
the coupling. The Welling twins were a lot more stunned when
they saw Woody kissing Ethan at the comic-bookstore, but they
eventually got over the initial shock and seemed genuinely
happy for the couple.
For a while, Woody almost thought his parents wouldn’t
mind their relationship because his folks never seemed bothered
by other gay people. They had many gay and lesbian friends
and acquaintances. In fact, when they first learned that Ethan
had interests in men, they didn’t think twice about
it and still invited him and his family over for dinner every
so often. But then again, Ethan and other folks were merely
outsiders, so there was no reason for the parents to really
care. When it comes to their son, however, the only child
they have left on the Earth, they had a bigger opinion about
the issue.
“Really Woody?” asked his father, “You’ve
always seemed very attracted to girls. Why the sudden change?”
“It’s not a sudden change,” explained Woody,
“I’ve had feelings for Ethan for a long time now,
and he’s had feeling for me for quite a while too.”
“For how long?” asked his mother, “Since
he was going out with your sister…?”
“No! He only thought of me as a little brother then,”
said Woody, “He explained it all. It wasn’t until
I joined varsity football last year when he started to see
me in a different light.”
The father shrugged, “It’s still a bit absurd.
He’s in college with a lot of young, attractive people
his age, why doesn’t he find someone there?”
“The same reason that you’re five years older
than mom,” said Woody, “Because age simply doesn’t
matter when it comes to true love.”
“Are you truly in love with him?” asked the mother.
“Yes, I am. I’ve never had feelings like this
for anyone before.”
“Are you sure this isn’t just a phase?”
asked the father.
Woody rolled his eyes, “Dad, I’m still very much
attracted to girls. But it just so happens that I like this
one guy, this one man more than any girl out there. And I
can’t freakin’ deny it. Tried to, so many times,
but I just can’t. It’s just great to be with him.”
The more Woody talked, the more that wonderful euphoric feeling
surged inside of him, “Please, you are the best parents
in the world…I just hope you understand…I hope
you approve.”
“Well, I approve,” nodded the mother, “if
whatever you got going on with Ethan is actual love, then
I approve. Your father just needs time, but I think he’ll
come around to it.”
****
Insurmountable pleasure reign their bodies; indescribable
thrill ruled their souls. Woody was laying on his side, facing
the stark blue wall, his trembling hands gripping the edge
of the mattress; if he gripped any harder, his fingers would
poke through the fabric. Ethan’s solid, perspiring body
was behind him, pummeling the huge manmeat deep in his core,
his large hands propping up Woody’s leg, allowing for
the efficient ownership and manipulation of his partner’s
body.
“Oh, GOD. YEAHHH. Damn, Ethan…oooooooh! You always
make me scream like a lil bitch, but it’s fucking great….OOOOOH.”
Woody cried out.
“You’re always so tight and warm….God, you
feel so great.” Ethan grunted.
“You’re fucking unbelievable….SHIT!”
Woody gasped, “….I’m gonnaa…I’m
gonna come….Ethan, I can’t hold it in any longer…”
Woody arched his back in an impossible manner, knocking his
head against Ethan’s broad shoulders, inhaling the exotic
aroma of Ethan’s hair mixed with sweat, as he shot his
load onto the wall and mattress. Feeling the inner walls tighten
around his rod, Ethan squeezed onto his lover’s thigh,
gnawed on his lover’s neck, sighed into his lover’s
ears, as he unloaded his love juice into the condom that separated
their hot flesh.
A light popping sound as Ethan pulled out of his partner;
one of Woody’s least favorite sound in the world, because
it meant Ethan was no longer inside him, no longer making
love to him, no longer fucking his brains out.
Sliding off the condom, Ethan quickly threw it in the trash
by the bed.
Woody shifted around to look into the eyes his wonderful
lover, “Damn, Ethan, if I could have you inside me all
day…I would.”
“Thanks. If I cum inside you all day, I would,”
grinned Ethan, “Hey, do you wanna go take a shower?”
“Nah! I don’t think I have the energy to even
get out of bed…” said Woody truthfully.
Ethan insisted, “Well, we should take a shower together,”
“We can do that in the morning. Right now, I just wanna
sleep.”
“Come on, it’ll be fun,” said Ethan, “I’ll
soap you up. And you can give me sudsy breasts.”
“Ethan, you have no idea what’s it like when
you make me cum…it’s so incredible…I can
barely think…nevertheless, move an inch of my body...”
Ethan gulped, “Alright, I guess we can take a shower
in the morning.”
Woody sniffed the air twice and laughed, “Did you—did
you fart?”
Ethan blushed but didn't say anything as he flipped on the
TV.
But as the smell continued to linger for more than ten minutes…
“It still stinks. What’s that smell?” Woody
cringed as the repugnant scent continued to attack his nostrils.
“Nothing, don’t worry about it,” Ethan said,
as he quickly moved the trashcan further away from the side
of the bed.
Curious, Woody leapt off the mattress and peered down at
the content of the trashcan. He gasped in horror and disgust
at his finding. Above the layer of banana peel, some wads
of paper, and a can of Pepsi, the high school boy saw the
recently disposed condom…it was caked with brown elements…
“Oh, my fucking God. That’s fucking gross. I
can’t believe I’m that disgusting….SHIT!”
Woody backed against the nearest wall in repulsion. Immediately
he understood why Ethan suggested him to take a shower. The
more he thought about it, the queasier his stomach became.
Putting a hand over his mouth, he broke through the bedroom
door, ran down the hallway into the bathroom, barely had time
to lift up the toilet seat and expelled the contents of his
stomach into the basin.
Ethan followed him into the bathroom, “It’s alright,
Sherwood. It happens sometimes. It’s no big deal.”
“No big deal!?” Woody wiped his mouth of the
dripping bile, “I’m disgusted in myself. I mean,
aren’t you disgusted? There was only a flimsy plastic
thing between your cock and my CRAP.” Woody shivered
in retrospect, “Damn, I’m gonna puke again!”
“We’ll just practice cleansing methods next time…”
“Next time?” Woody shook his head, “Why...why
would you want to put yourself through that again?”
“That’s just a technical difficulty of anal sex
that we’ll just have to deal with more carefully from
now on. But it’s nothing that would make me love you
any less.”
“I wanna take a shower,” Woody sighed.
“I’ll join you,” Ethan offered.
Woody shook his head, “No, please. I don’t feel
like being touched. I just feel diseased. I don’t wanna
contaminate you more…”
“FI-NA-FREAKIN-LY. YES. I’m done!” exclaimed
Ethan, striking the air victoriously, after having printed
out his twenty page research paper and stapling it.
Woody said admiringly, “I can’t believe you even
took a class that already has you writing that much in the
first four weeks of the new semester.”
“Well," chuckled Ethan, "if I want to become
an English professor…I gotta prove that I can actually
write worth a dang, ya know."
“Well, how long do you have before another monstrously
long paper is due?” asked Woody.
“This is actually the longest one. But we’re
supposed to build from this paper, and make it at least thirty
pages by the end of the semester.”
“Your teacher is insane!”
“He’s challenging, but I think it’s great!”
Ethan said, “And I also think it’s great that
you’ve been staying overnight here at the library with
me for the past two weeks. You have no idea how grateful I
am.” Ethan pulled Woody in for a light kiss. When they
pulled apart, the college boy claimed, “You know, we’ve
never actually been on a date.”
Woody sighed, already missing Ethan’s tender lips. “What
cha talking about? We just went out yesterday.”
“Not really. You invited Reed and the twins along. We’ve
never been on a date with just the two of us.”
Woody thought. “Well, me staying here with you at the
library is kinda like a date.”
“Yeah, I appreciate that so very much. But I wanna
thank you for inspiring me to write…I definitely couldn’t
have written a better paper without you. I think we should
go out to a dinner and a movie to celebrate.”
Woody felt he had already told everyone who needed to know
about their relationship—Kimora, because he was dating
her; Jimmy, Billy, and Reed because they were his closest
friends; and his parents because, well, they were his parents—but
Woody didn’t think it was necessary for the whole town
to know.
“I’m perfectly happy just to go to your house
and spend time there. As long as we know that we’re
going out, there’s no reason to…show off our relationship.
I don’t see why anyone else has to know about us,”
reasoned Woody.
“I know you’re scared, Sherwood,” Ethan
said, “I know you’re not ready to be judged by
the whole town. I know you’re afraid of what your high
school peers would think. But people are going to find out
sooner or later, Sherwood, and isn’t it better that
you come out at your own time in your own accord, rather than
having a rumor gradually leak out without your control?”
“Come out?” Woody snorted, “You sound so
serious, as if I’ve been gay my whole life.”
“Valentine Day’s coming up,” Ethan said
simply, “I know it’s a Hallmark Holiday and whatnot,
but I think it’s a special day for people who are in
love. And we are. I love you Sherwood, and I really want the
whole world to know that.”
Woody shook his head and shrugged, “If you really want
to…alright…we’ll go out.”
So the two made plans to see Modern Times, a black-and-white
film starring Charlie Chaplin, at the art cinema. Ethan loved
silent films, and Woody thought this was a good idea as well.
Not a lot of people, especially high school kids, would go
to the art cinema, particularly to watch this kind of classic
film. Afterwards, they would go to Sloppy Joe’s which
was a semi-fast-food restaurant. Woody assumed that if they
sat and ate casually, no one would suspect a thing.
****
Woody weighed the troubling dilemma. On one hand, he wanted
so desperately to be fucked by Ethan again. On the other hand,
he couldn’t go through the humiliating process of cleansing
himself. But having gone more than a week without having Ethan
inside him, Woody’s love-chute was aching more than
ever, his dick was constantly hard, and his balls were raging
on the edge of bursting. In the end, pushing back his pride
aside, Woody went to the local drugstore and bought a twin-pack
of Fleet Enema.
Woody wanted to surprise Ethan when he got home from work.
With the key Ethan had given him, the young man got into the
house and went straight to the bathroom, intending to prep
himself the best he could, reading the instructions on the
box as he eliminated his bowels beforehand.
Opening the box, Woody stepped into the shower and inserted
the lubricated tip into his hole and squeezed the bottle’s
solution up his rectum. He kept it in for five minutes or
so before sitting back on the toilet and expelling the solution.
Making sure he was truly clean, Woody used the second enema
bottle. But as he inserted the tip, the young man could feel
a mild burning sensation in his intestinal walls and a bit
of rashy, itchiness near his inner thigh as the solution dripped
down. He continued to fill his cavity for the second time,
but the irritation only worsened. Woody could only keep it
in for thirty seconds.
Immediately after expelling the solution, Woody jumped back
in the shower and tried to wash his reddened skin the best
he could.
Knock, knock, knock.
“Hey, Sherwood, you in there?” It was Ethan’s
voice.
“Yeah,” Woody answered.
“Can I come in?”
“No, I mean…sure.”
Ethan opened the door and saw the box of enema on the counter,
“You cleansing yourself?”
“Yeah, but it fucking stings. How the hell do gay men
put up with this every time they want to have clean sex?”
Ethan bit his lips to keep from laughing, “You used
the chemicals in the bottle, didn’t you?”
“Of course, what else was I supposed to do?”
Woody asked.
“Usually, I would just dump out the solution and fill
the bottle with warm water.”
“Oh, fuck. Shit, why don’t they put that on the
box?”
“Cause the solution is meant for people with constipation.
It'll give you diarrhea if you use too much.”
“What a bitch!” Woody growled, “Why does
gay sex have to be so damn difficult? When you fuck a pussy,
you just snap on a condom and go after it…but this is
fucking stupid!!!”
“I know I shouldn’t be laughing right now,”
Ethan chuckled, “But you’re really cute when you
get mad like that.”
“Well, keep on laughing,” said Woody, “Cause
that’s about all the excitement you’re gonna get
all night.”
“That’s where you’re wrong!” Ethan
said, yanking off his shirt and unbuckling his belt to pull
down his pants. Kicking off his boxers, the college senior
hopped into the shower stall and grabbed his boyfriend from
behind.
“What are you doing? My gut is rumbling, you know!”
“I know, I know,” said Ethan, kissing his boyfriend’s
neck, “But knowing that you were willing to cleanse
yourself for me…that’s just incredibly HOT! And
I wanna thank you, one way or the other.”
Spinning Woody around until they were face-to-face, Ethan
leaned forward for a luscious, wet kiss, backing his partner
against the wall, and his hands reaching down to pull at Woody’s
quickly hardening cock. The younger man sighed with discontent
as Ethan pulled his lips away too quickly, but soon he was
moaning in pleasure as Ethan’s tongue now licked down
the midline of his body, through the cleavage of his chest,
through the rows of Woody’s six-pack, past the navel,
until Woody’s hard dick was practically poking Ethan
in the eye.
Ethan licked around the base of Woody’s wood, enticing
his lover. Drawing his tongue back to the navel, testing Woody’s
patience. Then coming back down again, making Woody moan in
anticipation. The more Ethan teased at Woody’s cock,
jingling his balls, lathering his hands around Woody’s
inner thigh, the more precum dribbled out of the high schooler’s
cock, the more it twitched, the more Woody grunted yearningly.
And just as Woody was about to open his mouth in complaint,
Ethan engulfed Woody’s whole member, so that the only
sound that came out of Woody’s mouth was a cry of sheer
delight. Up and down, Ethan’s head bobbed along the
shaft. Left and right, Ethan’s tongue lapped around
the girth. Around and around, Ethan’s hands massaged
the reddened part of Woody’s thigh, soothing the irritation
away. He did everything with skill, always with purpose, always
with care, always making Woody moan helplessly.
The only other person who had pleasured Woody’s cock
was Reed Valentine. Reed was great, even fantastic, but what
Ethan was doing to him was on a whole new level of greatness,
a whole new stratum of pleasure. The pleasure could last forever,
could stretch til eternity, could escalate to infinity, but
the only problem was, Woody’s mortal body would wear
out before it reached that point.
Woody expelled his words between short bursts of breaths,
“This is it….Ethan…I have to…I’m
gonna…” Gripping onto his lover’s gorgeous
brown mane, Woody bucked his hips; his cock jabbing at the
upper pallet of Ethan’s mouth, spilling all that he
had saved for a week now. Ethan eagerly drank most of what
Woody had to offer, and afterwards, stood back up to share
some cum with his lover.
“But could you please…could you do me a favor?”
Ethan said, pressing his hard penis at Woody’s thigh.
“My butt still itches,” said Woody.
“No, not that.” Ethan said, “I’ve
been dying to have your lips around my…”
“I’m no good at it,” said Woody immediately,
“You’re better off jerking yourself off.”
“Why are you so sure you’re not good?”
“I’ve experimented with Reed before,” said
Woody, “And let’s just say, he was disappointed.
And besides, your cock is bigger than his. If I couldn’t
swallow his, how can I swallow yours?”
“You don’t have to swallow it whole…”
“Yeah, but still…” Seeing the disappointment
on Ethan’s face, Woody pulled him closer for a kiss,
“I’m sorry…I really want to, but I also
want to make sure you really enjoy it. But in order to do
that, I need to practice first…”
“Well, I should start buying you more bananas,”
Ethan laughed.
Valentine’s Day
Getting ready for the date, Woody sported faded blue jeans
and an ironed orange polo; his dark blonde hair was moussed
up in a stylistic way. Slipping on a new pair of blue-and-white
sneakers, Woody went outside and sat idly on the porch swing,
waiting for Ethan to pick him up in the Chevy truck...the
very truck that was the catalyst for their relationship.
Ethan said he would be there by six, and surely enough, the
punctual college senior arrived at Woody’s house five
minutes til, riding a motorcycle. Woody had to blink several
times to see if he was seeing this correctly, but soon concluded
that the image was real. Ethan took off his helmet and got
off the motorcycle. Woody slowly made his way down the porch
and met him in the middle of the lawn.
“Uh…where’s the truck?” Woody asked.
“At the body shop. Some punk went all over it with a
bat,” said Ethan.
“Oh, do you know who did it?”
“I have my suspicions…but don’t worry about
it,” smiled Ethan, as he presented a bouquet of flowers,
“Don’t know which ones is your favorite, so I
got a whole variety. There’s bound to be one that’s
you like.”
Woody accepted the bouquet and stared at the flowers awkwardly,
“I don’t got no favorite. I mean, I’m a
guy, what am I supposed to do with flowers? But…but
thanks anyway. I’ll bring this in for my mom.”
Woody went back into the house and come out thirty seconds
later, “So, we’re gonna take my Saturn than?”
Ethan shrugged, “Well, I was thinking the chopper would
be cool.”
Woody brought his eyebrows together, “Two guys on a
motorcycle…isn’t that a little bit…gay?”
“Not compared to the things we do in my bedroom, honey,”
laughed Ethan. “But okay, I know you’re still
conscientious about us being seen together. I completely get
it. I was exactly like you when I first went out with Ron.
I know it’ll take time…so yeah, we can take the
Saturn…I’ll just put my bike in your driveway…”
“No, we’ll take the bike,” Woody said,
not wanting to upset Ethan on their first date, “Where’s
my helmet?”
Ethan grinned widely and handed his date a blue helmet. Strapping
it on, Woody hopped on the motorcycle. “Hold on tight,”
Ethan said. With a little hesitation, Woody brought his hand
around the sturdy waist of his boyfriend. Soon the bike roared
and zoomed down the neighborhood street and then veered off
onto the main road. Woody had always wanted to ride on a motorcycle
(either by himself or with a hot girl holding on behind him),
so it was a little disappointing that he wasn’t riding
in front at the moment. Woody desperately wanted to enjoy
the ride but every time they stopped at an intersection, he
could just feel people’s eyes projected on him, almost
as penetrating as the eyes he felt during the football games.
Woody soon regretted this decision to please Ethan.
When they got to the art cinema downtown and found a place
to park, Woody quickly hopped off and took off his helmet
and stuffed it in a small compartment underneath the seats.
It wasn’t until they were in the empty theatre house
that Woody could relax.
The silent movie was one of Ethan and Woody’s favorite
films of all time so they enjoyed it thoroughly; laughing
out loud so much it hurt their sides and almost coming to
tears at the bitter-sweet ending. There were few people in
the auditorium, so Woody had no problems holding hands with
Ethan in the dark. But when Ethan stretched an arm around
Woody’s shoulders, things became uncomfortable again,
as Woody stirred around in his seat. Ethan got the hint and
pulled his arms back to his side.
After the movie, the couple reloaded the parking meter with
quarters and decided to walk two blocks down to Sloppy Joe’s
instead of taking the bike. This was better than being seen
on the bike again, and as long as they just talked and walked
side by side casually to the destination, Woody didn’t
have a problem with it. But when he felt Ethan was trying
to take a hold of his hand, Woody folded his arms and pretended
to scratch his elbow. When they reached Sloppy Joe’s,
the couple could read the sign on the window: Valentine’s
Day special. For couples, 15% off everything on menu.
They went inside and stood in line behind three couples waiting
for a table. When it was their turn to walk to the counter,
a waitress asked, “Are you two a couple?”
Ethan looked at Woody, “Your call!”
Woody gulped down dry air and suddenly felt his whole body
bursting in flames. The heterosexual couples behind them were
definitely staring, so were the other waiters. Woody took
in a deep breath and exhaled with a nod, “Yeah, we’re
a couple.”
Ethan beamed at Woody’s reply. And soon they were lead
to a small heart shaped booth and were asked what they wanted
to drink.
“Iced tea with lemon please,” said Ethan.
“Yeah, same for me.”
They were presented with the menus, and Ethan and Woody looked
through it, surprised that there was even a hand-held menu
at Sloppy Joe’s.
“They really do kick it up a notch on Valentine’s
day, don’t they?” Ethan commented. “Wow,
I haven’t seen a lot of these stuff on their usual menu
before…seafood salad…shrimp cocktail…awesome…”
Woody studied the menu just as curiously, “Hawaiian
pizza…I love that.”
“Me too, wanna share a medium?”
“Yeah, sure!”
Apart from the medium pizza, Ethan also ordered a chef salad
with the house dressing and Woody ordered a cup of fruit.
The pizza was good and their side orders were good, but it
was their easily flowing conversation that Woody and Ethan
enjoyed most. They began by talking about their favorite parts
in Modern Times and moved on to Chaplin’s other movies.
And then they talked about the other great silent comedian
Buster Keaton, and soon, they moved off the subject of silent
film altogether.
“Oh, I’ve been wondering. When I was looking
for you around campus to tell you to give Reed his job back,
I saw this weird sculpture at the art museum. And the head
part looks like yours,” recounted Woody, “Is that
you? Did you model for it?”
“You mean the statue of a guy with an android body
and a humanoid face?” Ethan shook his head, “Actually,
no. I’ve been asked that a lot. It’s actually…um…my
cousin, Adam.”
“Oh, you never mentioned that…”
“He and I don’t get along…”
“Why’s that?”
“Nothin’ really. Just personality conflict.”
Ethan suggested they move onto a different subject and proceeded
to mention his plan to leave the comic-book business to his
father in order to attend a fellowship in English studies
at Ashton University’s graduate school.
“That’s freakin awesome.” Woody raised
an eyebrow and animatedly relayed his plan on going to Ashton
University, as well, for undergraduate studies. However, their
exciting prospect of possibly living together in new city
next year was cut short when a couple strandling each other
stopped by their table.
An ominous shadow fell on Woody’s face, and he looked
up to see the big, towering figure and the thick neck and
face of Bruce Armstrong, his mortal enemy. And beside him,
standing a head and a half shorter, was Ashley Lace, the girl
who dumped Woody two years ago.
“Ethan…” Bruce gave a respectful nod to
the football idol, and then looked at Woody with less courteous
eyes, “Woodchuck, what a surprise,” he smirked,
“You two…um…Are you two…?”
“Yes! We’re together.” Woody said shortly.
“Oh…well then…that’s just…groovy…”
Bruce laughed.
Ashley said, “Congratulations!”
“Thank you,” nodded Ethan.
“Well, see ya around.” Bruce bent down to kiss
Ashley’s forehead, as if to say ‘I’m so
glad I’m not gay.’
As they walked off, Woody could hear Bruce and Ashley’s
suppressed laughter. “So that’s why he never had
sex with me,” Ashley whispered to her tall boyfriend,
but loud enough for Woody to overhear.
Ethan heard it as well, “You never had sex with her?
Why not? She’s hot!”
Woody sighed and replied, “I dated her after we lost
Laurie. Remember how you said my sister was disappointed in
me for sleeping around with so many girls? Well…I thought
I’d take it real slow with the next person I dated.
And that’s the result…she dumped me for that asshole.”
“Is that when you started working out a lot? To try
to get even with Bruce?” Ethan asked.
“Yeah, pathetic, ain’t it?”
“Well, you don’t have to worry about me hitting
on Bruce," said Ethan, "I’m claustrophobic
so having that big a guy on top of me…I’ll feel
caved in.”
Woody gave a slight chuckle in appreciation of Ethan’s
effort to make the best of the uncomfortable situation. Still,
the couple didn’t talk much after that. At least Ethan
attempted to keep the conversation going, but Woody’s
mind seemed to have disappeared into another world, a world
where Bruce and Ashley weren’t glancing at him so mockingly.
They quickly finished their pizza and side orders and went
to the front to pay, tipping the waitress a generous 25%.
As they walked back out into the street, Ethan again tried
to take hold of Woody’s hand, but the younger man stuffed
his hands down his pocket and prevented that to happen.
“Do you want to want to walk around a little bit, enjoy
the cool fresh evening, or go back to my place?” asked
Ethan.
“Your place,” sighed Woody.
Ethan bit his lip and nodded slowly, disappointment was all
that could be read on his face. But currently, Woody was too
much in a daze to notice Ethan's displeasure; all he could
think about was how the whole school would know about him
and Ethan on Monday. And now, he had to endure another grueling
fifteen minutes riding on the motorcycle back to Ethan’s
house with everyone staring at them at every darn intersection
for every freakin red light.
As they reached the parking meter, Ethan noticed a white
note on the black leather seat of the motorcycle and quickened
his pace in fear that it was a parking ticket. It quickly
became obvious that it was not a parking ticket, but a loose-leaf
notebook paper stuck to the seat with clear scotch tape. The
note read, “Hoped you guys had a fun date. I know what
happened to your truck. Cross the street to find me. Kimora.”
“When did she write this?” wondered Ethan, “She
could be anywhere by now.”
“No, I think she’s still over there.” Woody
said, pointing across the street to the building with some
Chinese characters painted on the glass window, “She’s
probably practicing her martial arts.”
And with that, Woody and Ethan crossed the streets at an
intersection. They passed under the red and yellow ‘Martial
Masters’ sign and ventured into the dimly lit building
which smelled of incense and cinnamon. A short man in his
fifties with gray hair wearing a karate gi and a black belt
came out to greet the couple with a low bow. Ethan and Woody
imitated a bow back at him.
“Hello, young spirits. I am Master Lee. What can I
help you with?”
“We wish to speak to Kimora,” said Woody, “If
she’s here.”
“She is here,” replied the man, “But she
is teaching her class. If you would like to wait out here
for the next hour. Or,” the man raised an eyebrow, “If
you would like to learn the basic of defensive martial arts,
we would welcome you to join her class.”
“What is the fee to take the class?” asked Ethan.
“We feel that everyone should know the basics of defensive
martial arts. The first class is free of charge to those who
are interested.”
Woody looked at Ethan who nodded enthusiastically, “Great.
We’ll join the class.”
The man bowed and led them into a tight hallway with many
stalls for changing. He gave each a white gi, pants and jacket,
and a white belt. Knowing they had wear it in order to enter
the class, Woody and Ethan accepted graciously. Each disappeared
into their respective stalls to change into their uniforms.
Without a mirror, they couldn’t tell how ridiculous
they looked or if they were even putting the suit on the right
way. So as they stepped back out into the hallway, they gauged
each other and laughed a little bit…their first genuine
laughter on their date since the movie. They approached each
other, slowly, seductively, letting their eyes go slowly up
and down the other’s body. Woody bit his lip to suppress
an unruly sigh of delight as he saw Ethan’s beautiful
golden chest peaking through his partially open gi jacket.
And Ethan licked his lips to keep from drooling, very much
appreciating how the belt around Woody’s waist accentuated
more of his already terrific derriere. It was sheer willpower
that they didn’t tear off their uniform and do the nasty
right then and there.
When Master Lee came back to see that the two had changed,
he led them down the hall and pointed to a door and bowed
away. When Ethan opened the door, they could hear the ‘hoo’
and ‘haa’ typical of what they expected to hear
in martial art classroom.
“And that,” said Kimora brightly, “are
just sounds to make when you want to impress a crowd or intimidate
your opponent. But it’ll all come down to your technique
in the end, so why don’t you guys work on what I showed
you?” She was talking to a dozen kids, the oldest of
which was still probably in sixth grade. When Kimora turned
to the door, she stared blankly at the couple for a moment,
and then spread her lips into a toothy smile, “Oh, hey,
you guys. Thanks for coming,” She ran up and bowed to
her two guest students and then proceeded to hug each one
at a time.
After the proper greeting, Ethan tried hard to not sound
intense, "What do you know about what happened to my
truck?”
“How did you know it was Ethan’s motorcycle parked
outside, anyhow?” asked Woody.
“When I got here, I saw you two walking out of the
art cinema, and Ethan was feeding the meter,” explained
Kimora, “So I went over to write the note.”
“So do you know who did it?” asked Ethan.
Kimora nodded, “I saw a kid striking your truck with
a bat, but he ran away before I could chase after him…I
don’t know who he is, but I can give you a pretty good
description of him.”
“Well, first, why were you at my place?” asked
Ethan.
Kimora rolled her eyes and sighed, “Okay, well. Honestly,
I was actually kind of jealous that Woody dumped me for you,
so I just wanted to pull a little prank. Intended to spray
paint something obscene on your windshield, but when I got
there, the little kid was already beating at the tail lights…”
“What does he look like?” asked Woody.
“He was a short Asian kid, with really long back hair…and
his black baggy jeans barely fit around his waist, and I think
the sneakers he wore were red,” said Kimora, “Do
you know any kid in your neighborhood like that?”
Ethan shook his head, “No, but your description is awfully
close to that of the guy who stole a stack of comics from
my store a few weeks ago…”
Woody supposed. “Do you think he wanted revenge for
getting him in trouble?”
“I know I should have told you, Ethan, as soon as I
saw it,” said Kimora, “But I thought you would
blame me for it. I really hope you guys believe me. You know
me, Woody, lying’s not my thing.”
“Well…you did lie,” Woody said, “At
first, you said you were happy for us, but now we find out
that you still have a little grudge?”
“I’m sorry; I’m not bitter anymore. I swear.
Seeing the kid beat up Ethan’s car brought me some perspective,”
said Kimora, “Look, you can investigate all you want
later, but I have a class to teach and you’re welcome
to participate since you’re already dressed for it,”
Kimora jogged back to the middle of the class, “Hey
guys. We have two new students who will be joining us this
evening. Why don’t you greet Woody and Ethan.”
The kids bent their backs at a 90 degree angel to their legs
and came back up. Ethan and Woody did the same and almost
lost their balance.
“So we’re gonna keep on practicing our defense.
And I need a volunteer,” Half a dozen students raised
their hands eagerly, but Kimora pointed to the tallest person
in the room, “Ethan, could you be my assistant?”
“What do I have to do?” Ethan asked unsurely.
“Oh, just try to attack me,” she said casually,
“Come on up here, please.”
Ethan walked up to the front of the class and Kimora looked
up and down, checking out the college boy’s form, “You
see, kids, we have here a very tall, very strong looking guy.
He seems imposing because he is muscular, and his back is
straight and proper. He’s got great legs, very good
balance. All around beefcake and total hunk. But his nerve
endings are just the same as yours and mine, and if we strike
at the right spot…” She hit him somewhere in the
back and Ethan fell down on all fours, “He’ll
go down like so…” The kids busted in raucous laughter,
but Woody frowned at seeing his boyfriend crumble so ignominiously.
As Ethan got back on his feet and massaged his back, Kimora
kept on talking, “Whether your opponent is a bully at
school or a pickpocket out on the street, or a guy who stole
your boyfriend…” Kimora eyed Ethan evilly, displaying
a wicked little grin,“You can show them who’s
who with these techniques.” She turned to Ethan and
whispered into his ears, “Strike me.”
Ethan knew this wasn’t going to end well for him, but
he feigned a slow punch at Kimora who grabbed a hold of his
hand and bent his wrist and twisted his arm around his back
and brought his chest down to his knees. “Make sure
you bend your opponent’s wrist IN, not out. You will
hurt him more that way, and possibly even break his wrist,”
Ethan let out a scream as Kimora further twisted Ethan’s
arm.
In his mind, Woody was definitely upset to see his boyfriend
in pain and humiliation, but in his pants, there was no denying
that he was getting a hard-on watching the superman of all
supermen, Ethan White, being dominated by a girl. Soon, Kimora
was demonstrating how to throw an opponent down. Using Ethan’s
weight against him, Kimora flipped him over; Ethan landed
with a loud smack on his back against the mat as Kimora proceeded
to crush his throat with her knees. The kids laughed, seeing
Ethan’s reddened face as he squirmed and kicked about
on the mat, and Woody had to sit down on a bench in order
to hide his growing erection. He couldn’t believe he
how much he enjoyed seeing Ethan writhing in pain; it was
a sick thing to watch, but extremely arousing. When Ethan
finally stood back up, his jacket had loosened considerably,
and Woody could see more of his finely built torso. If there
was a body that could take Kimora’s abuse, Woody thought,
it would definitely be Ethan’s.
“Finally, let’s put all these techniques together
into one super move that will surely knock any opponent out,”
said Kimora excitedly. Again she asked Ethan to strike her.
Ethan grinned nervously, took in a deep breath, and mentally
prepared himself for another beating, before throwing another
punch. Again, Kimora grabbed his arm, twisted it, grabbed
his other arm, twisted them together, then she got behind
him and kicked the hinges of his legs to bring down his knees.
He grunted with strained voice every time her knees struck
his back. And soon his belt had completely loosened from his
waist, and his shirt fell off his shoulders, revealing the
spasm and straining muscles as he desperately tried to free
himself. Ethan felt Kimora’s arms relax for a moment,
but only to pick up his belt and tie it around his neck and
choke him with it. The kids clapped and cheered at this seemingly
innocent demonstration, and finally, Kimora had shoved her
assistant face down on the mat. Panting heavily, his whole
backside was burning red, his muscles in tight little knots.
Ethan struggled to peel himself off the mat, but Kimora stomped
her feet on his back, crushing him deeper into the ground.
“Okay, now, kids. Have your way with him!” All
twelve kids charged at the body on the ground, tugging at
Ethan’s legs, twisting his arms, stepping on his back,
pulling at his ears…it reminded Woody of horror films
where a guy falls behind the group and gets eaten by a pack
of zombies.
As the kids had their fun picking at Ethan’s flesh,
Kimora went over to Woody, beaming as she said, “Wow,
Ethan’s being a really good sport about all this.”
“Yeah, he usually doesn’t back down on stuff
like this…” Woody half-chuckled, half-scolded,
“I know you’re still bitter and this is your revenge.
But could you please make sure there’s enough pieces
left of my boyfriend that I could bring home?”
Kimora nodded, her face solemn, “Now I know how much
he cares for you. Some of the moves I did were about as powerful
as I would have used in real life. I’m amazed he put
up with so much. Ethan’s a great guy, I can definitely
see that now, and I’m really happy for you. I mean it
this time…”
“Then why do you look so sad?” asked Woody.
“Because before, I thought there was a chance you would
take me back. But now I know, I could never compare to a guy
like him.”
“No, listen,” Woody said, “You are the
most amazing girl I’ve ever had the pleasure of dating,
and yes, I was very worried when I found out that you cut
yourself. But I know you’re a stronger girl now; I know
you’ll soon find a greater guy than me. Hell, I know
half the guys at school want to date you.”
“I really didn’t vandalize Ethan’s truck,”
Kimora said. "You have to believe me."
“I know,” Woody nodded, “I believe you.”
Kimora stood up, and wiped away some tears from her eyes,
as she shouted to the children, “Hey guys. Did you kill
him yet?”
“NO!” They all screamed.
“Okay, then. Continue!”
“Help me, Sherwood!” bellowed Ethan, “Too
many kids on top. I’m claustrophobic. HELP, PLEASE!”
“Help you?” laughed Woody, running to the site
of chaos, “Hell, I’m join in!”
And with that, a couple of kids moved out of the way as Woody
dog-piled on the college senior.
****
Walking out of Martial Masters, with his arm around Ethan’s
waist, Woody helped his bruised and battered boyfriend across
the street. But as they approached the motorcycle, Woody stopped
and asked, “I always loved downtown at night. Wanna
walk around?”
Ethan nodded slowly, and produced a smile that stretched
from ear to ear. The two love birds, arm in arm, passed the
motorcycle but continued down the block. They walked under
many beautiful stroping lights of all sorts of colors, immersed
in soft music provided by the street musicians; they took
in the spectacular scent of coffee by the cafes on every corner.
They could almost taste the steak roasting in the fine diners.
There were lots of high school and college couples walking
about, most too preoccupied with themselves to notice Woody
and ethan. But others did notice them, but most did not seem
to care. An even smaller number of couples did notice and
did care, but the important thing was...Woody was too smitten,
too entranced in Ethan's blue eyes…to be bothered by
those extraneous people.
“What you did…that was the sweetest…and
sexiest…thing I’ve ever seen,” said Woody,
“Letting Kimora take out her frustration on you, so
she wouldn’t have to hurt herself. God, Ethan, you’re
the most amazing guy I’ve ever known, and I don’t
care what anyone thinks anymore. I am so proud to be seen
with you. I love you so much, Ethan.”
“I love you more, Sherwood! Happy Valentine’s
Day!” Standing by a trickling water fountain under soft
street lights next to violinist playing a romantic tune, they
swung their arms around each other to cover the bodies from
the cold elements, and they brought warmer elements from the
lips and tongue together, and kissed passionately.
Woody pushed aside his doubts tonight. All he wanted was
to repay Ethan for his valiance and nobleness. He wanted to
show how much he respected Ethan, how much more he had fallen
in love with him during the last couple of hours. Woody began
the foreplay by stroking up the beautiful lengths of Ethan’s
arms, trying to undo the damage that was done earlier. Now
rubbing his broad square shoulders, loving the feel of Ethan’s
muscles under his palms…then stroking gently on his
throat…the throat that was crushed earlier by Kimora’s
knees. Woody felt the Adam’s apple go up as Ethan swallowed
down excess saliva. The younger man enjoyed the firm feel
and sweet taste of Ethan’s chest, sucking on the knobbiness
of his nickel-sized areolas. Woody couldn’t get enough
of his lover’s body; it took 22 years of hard, determined
effort the create and maintain this perfect physique. Woody
adored everything about the man—his defined abs that
still felt so soft to the touch, the hair of Ethan’s
legs that brushed against his chins as they engaged in foreplay,
and especially that big, beautiful thing that towered between
his legs.
Without hesitation, Woody reached for his lover’s cock
and dove head-first at it. Woody closed his eyes as he felt
the manmeat between his tongue and upper palate, pushing it
further down the oral cavity. Soon, straggly hair tickled
Woody’s nose, and he opened his eyes in total amazement.
He had engulfed all of Ethan’s endowment, actually deep-throating
him…and it only took one try. Woody recalled Reed’s
7 incher that caused him to gag halfway down. But at this
moment, he was stuffing Ethan’s full 9 inch down his
throat and felt totally fine. How was this possible? What
made all the difference?
“Dang, Sherwood! I thought you said you weren’t
any good,” Ethan gasped, “I can’t believe
you’ve been holding out on me all this time…Oh
GOD…Whoaa…” Ethan returned to undecipherable
moans and sighs as Woody began to juggle Ethan’s balls
in one hand and fingered Ethan’s navel with another.
To Woody, nothing tasted better than the coat of precum leaking
out of Ethan’s cock…except for perhaps the hot,
thick jizz that he would soon taste for the first time. The
thought of savoring the succulent treat made Woody suck more
furiously, yank at Ethan’s balls harder, poke deeper
at the erogenous navel…until Ethan began bucking his
hips uncontrollably, signaling the ejaculation that would
soon come…and finally it did…It didn’t spray
in several squirts…No, it streamed out like a firefighter’s
water-hose, filling Woody’s mouth so fast, he gulped
down mouthfuls and still had juices dripping from his lips.
Woody desperately, hungrily lapped the entire spilled product,
refusing to let any of Ethan’s passionate essence go
to waste.
Slowly, Woody climbed back to meet Ethan’s eyes and
kissed him, letting Ethan taste his own sweet-and-sour treat.
“Was I any good?” Woody asked, afraid to hear
the answer.
“Did my penis bust your eardrum?” Ethan snorted,
“My god, did you not hear me scream like a little damsel
in distress. Jesus, Sherwood, I don’t think I’ve
ever received a better head!”
And then Woody understood the difference between sucking
Reed’s cock and sucking Ethan’s…it was the
biggest different of all: the person.
“Fuck me," sighed Woody. "I need you to fuck
me now. Make me pay for being such a hard-ass on the date."
“Honey, I’m sorry. But I’ve been beaten
up by a girl today. And just moments ago, I spilt all I had
saved up the last week and half…I really want too, but
it’s physically impossible for me to make love to you
tonight,” Ethan said, “Unless you’re willing
to make love to me…I’ve been dying to have you
inside me, Woody. I so desperately need your beautiful cock
fill me up.” Before Woody could give a proper response,
Ethan quickly added, “I got an enema bag in the shower.
I promise it’ll get everything out that you’re
afraid of…”
Woody thought about it for a moment. No apprehension, no
fear, no doubt about anything could undo his need, his want,
his desire to please his lover. Woody winked, “I’m
ready when you are!”
And with that, Ethan hopped off the bed and ran to the bathroom.
Woody waited anxiously, turning on the TV so his mind wasn’t
filled with images of Ethan taking care of the nasty business
which may cause him to change his mind. Ten minutes or so
later, Woody could hear, “Sherwood, come take a shower
with me.”
Shower = clean. And that was all Woody cared about. Immediately,
he hopped off the bed and went into the steamy bathroom and
began to strip off.
Sliding the glass door open, Woody stared admiringly at Ethan’s
wet body, the hairs on his arms and legs and pubes clung to
his skin in a rather exotic way. And his slick brown hair
on his head seemed darker with the moisture and steam. Ethan
pulled Woody in for a quick but fervent kiss, grabbing Woody’s
tight ass cheeks.
“I’ve cleaned as much as I could on the inside,”
Ethan said, pulling a body sponge from a basket hanging below
the shower head, “Now could you help clean me on the
outside.” Nodding enthusiastically, Woody added the
liquid soap onto the sponge and squeezed it so that soap suds
splattered sexily over Ethan’s chest, running down his
washboard abdomen, covering his thick dick with foam. Woody
got on his knees now, like a servant, a loyal willing apprentice,
honoring the wishes of his manly knight….he began washing
Ethan’s legs, loving the way the suds mixed with the
hair, loving the way Ethan’s toes curled at Woody’s
lathering.
Woody now stood up and asked Ethan to turn around so he could
take good care of Ethan’s backside, especially that
very important part found just below his rigid trunk and just
above his solid thighs. Woody began by placing the sponge
right at Ethan’s neck and slowly ran it down his spinal
column, feeling the exotic bumps along the way until he reached
the tail bone. Woody let a finger slip teasingly between Ethan’s
butt crack…hearing the older man let out a whimper of
glee…but quickly retracting his finger to go up Ethan’s
back again. In a slow exotic zigzagged fashion, Woody washed
the broad canvas of Ethan’s back, loving the way the
hills and mountains of his muscles shifted and moved so dynamically.
And soon Woody returned to Ethan’s buttocks, scrubbing
both cheeks squeaky clean, giggling when Ethan tried to make
them dance, slapping Ethan’s bum to make him stop, but
only egging him to shake more of his booty. And then the high
school senior knew the perfect way to make Ethan stop shaking
his butt, he spread Ethan’s ass cheeks apart…and
surely enough, they stopped twitching. With several swift
strokes with the body sponge, Woody had cleansed Ethan’s
entrance, starring at the tightness, and feeling his own cock
rise to full attention.
Suddenly the roles were switched. Woody was no longer the
servant, no longer the apprentice, he was now the knight…and
he would have his way with Ethan, his lover. It didn’t
take long for Woody to snap on his condom, nor did he take
time to lube himself up. Ordering Ethan to lean forward, facing
the wall, Woody grabbed a great hold of Ethan’s hipbone
and didn’t even need to ask if his partner was ready…he
knew Ethan had been ready since the shower began. Forcing
himself all the way in until his pelvis slammed against Ethan’s
rear, Woody gasped, his eyes widening in realization, at the
sudden tightness surrounding him.
It was the hottest, tightest spot Woody’s dick had
ever encountered. Ethan’s love-chute was burning, scorching,
hotter than anyone’s mouth. It was snug, constricted,
tighter than any girl’s pussy. Woody had to wonder how
it was possibly for any other guy to fuck a hole this tight
and not come after three thrust. This was it, the ultimate
love-hole for a man’s penis. The hole that challenged
all males—the hole that could separate the men from
the boys. Woody so desperately wanted to be a man, but he
must prove it first. He must prove to Ethan that he was in
control; he was in charge of Ethan’s sensations. And
so he quickly pulled out most of his eight inches and slammed
right back in, causing Ethan to moan to the ceiling.
Every moan Ethan uttered from his lungs, every sigh of encouragement,
and every nod of approval was making it easier and easier
for Woody to forget about the tightness, and begin to enjoy
the incredible overall sensation. The hot steam surging about
their bodies. The water dripping off Ethan’s back and
pooling at the conjunction of Ethan’s buttocks and Woody’s
pelvis. The beautiful slopping sounds as Woody thumped against
Ethan’s backside. The fact that he was fucking the greatest
guy in the world, and the fact that the greatest guy in the
world was enjoying his fuck…Woody couldn’t think
of any two greater facts in the world!
Woody leaned forward, bringing his mouth to the back of his
partner’s neck, letting the sprinkling water fall on
his face as he moved his lips from shoulder to shoulder, trying
hard to resist the need to bite at Ethan’s delicious
looking flesh. Ethan raised his back against Woody’s
chest, making it rather difficult for Woody to continue the
steady gyrations, but the younger man never lost track of
the pulsating rhythm.
Woody’s hands now moved to Ethan’s hips, now
sliding slickly up Ethan’s beautifully toned sides until
his hands met the hairy pits under Ethan’s arms, then
sliding over the front to grope at the lumpy pectoral meats.
Ethan’s palms gently glided onto the back of Woody’s
hand. Their fingers laced together, fitting perfectly like
pieces of a jigsaw puzzle, now gliding down in unison until
they stopped at the older man’s massive hardon. With
that helpful guidance, Woody knew what he had to do to further
pleasure his lover.
Wrapping wet, sleek fingers over Ethan’s rock-hard
manmeat, Woody began to stroke the whole length, letting his
fingers linger a bit longer at the sensitive arrowhead, feeling
Ethan’s cock twitch excitedly with each stroke. Ethan’s
moans became more drawn out, louder, heavier…Woody could
feel Ethan’s legs trembling against his, could feel
the strong body quaking against his chest…and he knew
what was about to happen.
Viscous white cream poured out of the tip of Ethan’s
cock, most of them hitting the wall near the bottom of the
stall, some of them dripped in Woody’s hand that was
still vigorously stroking at Ethan’s cock. And soon
Ethan came for a second time, his whole body tensing, the
tight walls of his inner sanctum squeezing around Woody’s
cock, making it impossible for Woody to thrust in and out
again…until the younger man knew the only thing left
to do was release his mounting tension.
Woody released a guttural scream of passion as he clutched
tightly onto the older man’s waist, coming hard and
powerfully into the condom, spilling much more than he knew
his body could produce. Ethan twisted his head back and Woody
titled his forward, making it possibly for their lips to meet,
as they climaxed together once more.
Exhaustedly, panting, Woody slowly pulled all the way out
of Ethan, hearing a clean wet pop as his the arrowhead finally
came out. Woody sighed in relieved…the condom looked
absolutely clean…and he was so grateful of the older
man’s cleanliness.
But when he pulled the condom off…Woody saw that some
semen was dripping out the bottom tip of the condom. Woody’s
worst fear had came true…the condom had broken while
he was inside of Ethan.
“Oh, no. Oh, God, NO!!! It tore?” Ethan’s
face was stricken with fear, “I’m so sorry, Sherwood.
I’m so sorry!” He apologized over and over again,
“I should have told you to use more lube…and the
way we were doing it wasn’t the smoothest…I should
have known better…it’s all my fault…I should
have relaxed more…I shouldn’t have been so tense,
I’m so sorry…”
“Ethan, please, listen.” Woody shook his head
and smiled, pressing a finger over Ethan’s lips in order
to say, “I don’t care! I really really don’t!
I’ve never came that hard inside anyone before, Ethan.
So I kinda wished there was no condom at all, so you could
feel how much I came for you. So you could feel how much I
love you.”
With that, the couple kissed under the running shower, washing
off their bodies the copious amount of love-juice they had
spilled for each other that night.
****
Two days later.
Driving up the driveway of Ethan's house, Woody saw a short
Asian kid with long hair carrying a bat…exactly as Kimora
had described him…about to bash in a window of Ethan’s
house. The kid ran when he saw the high-school senior, but
Woody, being one of the fastest quarterback the school had
ever known, chased after him and easily caught up to him.
Woody dragged the kid back to Ethan’s house, wondering
how the college senior would punish the kid.
But Ethan stared down at the kid and asked, “What’s
wrong with you dude? Why do you keep getting yourself into
trouble?”
The boy gave him the evil eye, but otherwise, did not reply.
Ethan continued, “Look kid, it’s not my fault
you chose to steal the comics from my store. I did what had
to be done. But I also know that if you do one bad thing,
a whole lot of crap starts piling up before you know it. So
I’m gonna give you a reprieve this time. I’m not
gonna tell anyone what you did to my truck, okay? Or what
you were about to do to my window. And you on the other hand,
will have to promise me that you’ll take this chance
and use it for something good. You hear me?”
The boy nodded excitedly.
“Now go home before I change my mind!”
The boy jumped off the porch and fled into the night.
As the boy disappeared around the corner, Woody frowned,
stroking the side of his boyfriend’s beautiful face,
“That was really nice and all, Ethan. But sometimes,
I think you’re a bit too optimistic about the world.
You always look at the good side of some people even when
all they have is a bad side. If that punk doesn’t bother
you again, I’m sure he’ll find somebody else to
trouble.”
“I believe he’ll take the lesson to heart, and
he can change.” Ethan shrugged.
Woody shook his head, “What if he doesn’t? You’re
only setting him up for shock when he gets in trouble again
and finds out that no one’s gonna forgive him like you
did.”
“I guess time will tell which one of us is right,”
Ethan sighed, “Believe me, Sherwood. I really wanna
believe people can change for the better. I’m not just
talking about him. I’m talking about me.” He squeezed
his eyes shut to hold back some tears, “I’ve dealt
terribly with demons in my past relationships, and I keep
telling myself I’m just waiting for the right person
to change me…and I believe I found him. I believe that
person is you. I really believe you can help me change!”

“Change?” Woody asked, “Change what? What
do you mean?”
Wrapping his arms tightly around Woody's torso, Ethan gulped,
“Let’s hope, you’ll never have to know!”
