Love in a Chair

A story of love and hope by Altimexis

Chapter 6 — Love Blossoms

Aaron hadn’t been expecting to enjoy the football game, but was surprised when he did. It started when Larry’s dad swung by and picked him up. From the moment he stepped into the car, Larry made him feel like a friend. It amazed him how quickly Larry adopted him, treating him as if they’d always been friends. The fact that Aaron was gay didn’t even enter into the equation. Better still, Larry didn’t keep pestering him about who he thought was hot or whose skirt he wanted to get up the way his other ‘friends’ at school did. Larry accepted Aaron for who he was and for the first time since he had reached sexual awareness, he didn’t feel self-conscious.

Even more amazing was how Larry treated Aaron’s naiveté about football. Larry was patient and explained everything to him. He pointed out the different players and explained the different strategies the coach was applying. No one — not even his father — had taken the time to explain football in such detail to him and Aaron surprisingly found he was getting into the game. The first half was more than just a filler while waiting to see Brian — it was fun! Besides which, it didn’t hurt that their team was winning.

Finally it was halftime and the band came out to rally the fans. There were so many kids in the band — at first Aaron didn’t think he saw Brian, but then with a little help from Larry, he spotted him and immediately broke into a broad grin. The band didn’t seem half-bad, but Aaron was convinced that with every note, Brian’s were the loudest and clearest. To him it was Brian who was the star of the show. OK, he knew he was maybe just a little bit biased, but he was allowed to be biased, after all.

When play resumed, Larry turned to Aaron and said, “You know, Aaron, Cindy and I were thinking of joining the gay-straight alliance. Why don’t you and Brian join with us?”

Aaron just about fell off the bleacher. It was the first time Larry had mentioned the ‘g’ word all day, and it came totally from out of the blue. “Why would you and Cindy join?”

“Because it’s a gay-straight alliance. Duh! The whole idea is to give people who are gay, or who have friends who are gay, or who just feel that homophobia is wrong, a place to hang out. Now that I know my best buds are gay, I’m going to join even if you guys don’t.”

What Larry was saying made a lot of sense, but this was a big step for Aaron. He’d only recently accepted that he was gay and he sure as hell didn’t feel ready to come out of the closet. Joining a gay organization was a bigger step than he felt comfortable with right now. “I dunno. I guess it could be cool, but I’m not sure if I’m ready for that.”

“That’s cool. I think I know how you feel. It’s really something you and Brian should talk about with each other anyway. Sorry if I put on a little pressure — I just thought it might do a little good for the both of you. This has gotta’ be a tough adjustment. Wouldn’t it make a lot of sense to go through it with other kids who are going through the same thing?”

Now that did make a lot of sense to Aaron. He knew his sexual orientation probably had a lot to do with why he didn’t feel comfortable with other kids. Maybe the gay-straight alliance would be a good place to make friends. Not that he was looking for another lover — no one could come close to being Brian — but the GSA would have a lot of like-minded people, both gay and straight, and for the first time he could truly be himself without having to worry about what others thought. “You’re probably right. I’ll talk to Brian about it.”

“Cool! We could all go together. Oh, Henderson ’s coming into the game. This should be good.” And with that the conversation returned to football and Aaron’s heart rate started to return to normal.

Toward the end of the fourth quarter, Larry motioned for Aaron to get up and they started to make their way to the exit. The game was going very well and they were winning, 28-13, so there was little fear of missing anything, and Larry had an idea. Aaron just assumed that Larry’s dad must be an impatient guy, but then, rather than heading out the exit, they actually headed toward the field.

“What are we doing?”

“You’ll see.” The two boys could only go so far, but they had a decent view of part of the playing field and watched the final play of the game and, with that, the crowd erupted in a loud cheer as the band started playing the school song. It was so loud, it almost sounded as if the band were right on top of them, which it basically was.

The sound of everyone exiting the stadium was almost deafening. Soon, Larry and Aaron were practically swept out of the stadium by the band members as they exited. And then Aaron saw Brian. He looked so cute in his uniform. He almost started to run to him with the intent to wrap him in a crushing hug, but then he remembered where he was and settled for swinging his arm around his shoulder.

“Aaron, you came!”

“Wouldn’t have missed it for anything.”

“I’m glad.”

“Hey, let’s not get all mushy,” Larry said as he caught up to them. Both boys blushed as they once again remembered where they were.

“Just a minute,” Brian said as he suddenly ran off and talked to some of the other band members.

“What was that about?” Aaron asked when he returned.

“I was just telling some of my friends that I’m not going with them today. I told them I had other plans.”

“You do?

“I do now,” Brian said, giving Aaron a sly wink. He turned to Larry and asked, “Do you think your dad could give me a ride back to Aaron’s house?”

“You’re such a horn dog. Sure, you can ride back with us.”

“No, no, Larry. We just want to spend a little time together.”

“Yeah, right.”

“No seriously.” This time it was Aaron who spoke. “There’s more to life than sex. Just being with Brian means more to me than anything else in the world. Do you have sex with Cindy every time you see her?”

“Not that I wouldn’t want to. Actually, ah, you know, well, we haven’t even gotten beyond first base. Not that I wouldn’t want to do more — a lot more — but Cindy wants to take things kinda slow. Actually, I guess I do, too. I hear what you’re saying, guys. But I still think it’s cool that you can do it so easily. I mean, there’s none of that boy-girl mystery thing with you. You both know what you’ve got and you know how it feels. Somehow it just seems easier, and you don’t have to worry about getting each other pregnant.”

“Well, my mom still wants us to use condoms.”

“Aaron, your mom knows?”

“Yeah, somehow she figured it out.”

“And if she wants you to use condoms… I mean, does that mean she’s OK with you having sex?”

“Why do you think we’re going to Aaron’s house?” Brian grinned with his reply.

“Oh man, I’m jealous. My folks would die if they thought I was having sex. Not that I’m having sex, and I’m not sure I would want my parents to know, but not having to sneak around must be awesome.”

“True that, Larry. Oh, but my parents don’t know, and it’s best they not know. ’K?” Brian said with some concern.

“Your secret’s safe with me.”

Just then Larry’s dad drove up and they all got in, with Larry sitting in front and Aaron and Brian sitting in back.

“Brian, don’t you usually go out with the band after a game?”

“Not tonight, Mr. Epstein. I’m going to spend a little time with Aaron at his house. Would you mind giving me a ride there?”

“Of course not, Brian. But I was planning to take Larry and Aaron out for a bite first. You’re welcome to join us. Is that OK?”

“You bet!” When wouldn’t a teenage boy want to grab something to eat, after all? On the way to the “BK”, Brian whispered to Larry, “Hey, does your dad know?”

“No.” That told the boys all they needed to know. Larry’s dad didn’t know about Aaron and Brian and he didn’t need to know. They would keep it quiet when they were with him.

After eating, they headed to Aaron’s house and Larry said his goodbyes.

“Brian, what a pleasant surprise! It’s nice to see you,” Mrs. Johnson said with enthusiasm as she gave him a hug.

“Mom, don’t smother the guy.”

“Sorry about that, Brian.”

“Mrs. J, could I use your phone to call my folks. I better let them know I’m here. They think I’m out with the rest of the band.”

“That’s a very responsible thing to do, Brian. But you don’t have to ask — you can always use our phone when you’re over here.”

With that, he called his parents and got their permission to stay until just before ten. He asked Aaron’s mom if he could get a ride from her back to his house and she readily agreed. After hanging up the phone, the two boys bounded up the stairs to Aaron’s room. Although it seemed like they had been in love forever, it didn’t hit Aaron until they were up there that this was the first time Brian had seen his room.

“This is a really cool room, Aaron.” Brian continued to look around the room and at all of Aaron’s stuff. “And it’s pretty neat, like mine.”

“Actually, it looks pretty messy to me. Look at all those piles on my desk.”

“Controlled chaos. I like it. There’s no clothes on the floor. Your bed’s made. I mean, when I go over to Larry’s, it’s like there’s no place to walk. His floor’s covered with, well, everything.”

“Yeah, kinda like my brother’s room,” Aaron replied.

“”Hmm. At least you have a brother. And a damn good one at that.”

“Did I hear someone talking about me?” Adam said as he entered the room.

“Hey AdaMan. How you doin’? Haven’t seen you much since last spring.”

“Yeah, well, now that you’re in high school and I’m still in middle school. Well, it’s just not the same there without you.”

“Yeah, right. I’m sure the place is real broken up about me being gone.”

“Oh, you’re gone?” Adam said with a sly grin.

“Watch it, fuck-off.”

“Temper, temper. Speaking of fuck-offs, maybe I should let you two alone.” The whole room seemed to get a red glow from the color of Aaron’s and Brian’s skin at the moment. “And try not to be too loud. Just remember that Mom’s downstairs. And for Pete’s sake, I’ll be right in the next room. Probably jackin’ off if you make too much noise.”

“Now that’s a sight I’d really like to see,” Aaron said in response.

“Great, my brother’s a pervert.”

“Takes one to know one.”

“I’ll second that,” Brian added.

“I’m outta here.” Adam closed the door behind him and Aaron followed to lock it.

The two boys stood facing each other for what seemed like hours, each one afraid to take the next step. They both knew where this could lead and were a bit scared. Finally, Aaron couldn’t take it any more and he made the first move. Placing his hands on Brian’s shoulders, he slowly moved his face forward as Brian did likewise. Their eyes closed as their mouths started to make contact. Electricity flowed between the two as their lips opened and their tongues slid against each other. Both boys wrapped their arms around each other as they embraced tightly. Aaron could feel Brian’s heartbeat against his chest, nearly drowned out by the pounding of his own. The kiss lasted an eternity as their passion seemed to explode. Brian reached down and pulled at the hem of Aaron’s shirt, breaking their kiss only long enough to slip the shirt over Aaron’s head. Aaron unbuttoned the vest of Brian’s uniform and then removed it and the shirt underneath, and soon the boys were locked back in a serious kiss, rubbing their chests against each other and rubbing their hands against each other’s backs.

Aaron and Brian kissed and kissed again as they kept their embrace, slowly turning as they felt each other’s bodies with their hands. It was then that Aaron saw it for the first time and broke their kiss. “What is it, Aaron?” Brian asked. Rather than say anything, Aaron walked over to the night-stand next to his bed and lifted the packages. There were two gift-wrapped boxes, and there was an attached card. Aaron opened the card and started to read it. He then read it aloud to his boyfriend:

“Dear Aaron, Please don’t take this the wrong way, but I care deeply about you and want you boys to be safe. Believe me, this is not a green light for the two of you to ‘go all the way’. Love is about much more than sex. Before you go further, please ask yourself if you’re acting on love, or lust. Love is deep and lasting. Lust is strong, but burns out quickly. If you really love Brian, you owe it to yourself to take it slowly. Let your love develop as it feels right to both of you. Please accept these gifts as a token of that beautiful future you will share together. Put one or both of them away for now knowing they’ll be there when you’re ready, whether it’s next week, or next month, or next year. But above all else, remember your promise. Love, Mom.”

Aaron didn’t need to open the packages to know what was inside. His mom was saving him the embarrassment of buying his own condoms and lubricant. Without a word, he opened the drawer in his night-stand and placed the unopened long and thin gift-wrapped package inside. He turned to Brian and said, “To tell you the truth, I’m not sure I’m ready to go all the way just yet.”

“Me neither. It’s pretty scary, huh?”

“Yeah. I mean, not that I wouldn’t like to do it, but this is all so new to me. I think I know what my mom means. There’s a part of me that really wants to do nothing but have wild and passionate sex with you, but my mind is telling me I want more. What I feel for you is much more than lust. Just being with you is so special.”

“Yeah, I feel the same way.” And with that, the boys resumed passionately kissing. Slowly, the sexual energy that had left the room began to return.

Aaron timidly asked, “How about giving each other blow jobs, just like we did before, but maybe a little slower this time? We’ve still got a few hours before you have to go. Let’s take our time and enjoy it.”

“That sounds perfect.” Brian reached forward and grabbed Aaron into another crushing embrace as they mashed their mouths together and gently wrestled with each others tongues. He then broke the kiss and started to kiss and lick at Aaron’s left earlobe and then down the side of his neck. Aaron was ecstatic. Brian then continued to kiss and lick down the front of Aaron’s chest and then kissed his left nipple. Aaron moaned softly. Brian licked at Aaron’s nipple, swirling his tongue around it in circles as Aaron started to moan more loudly. He then proceeded to kiss and lick the other nipple.

Aaron pushed Brian away and said, “You’d better slow down a bit or I’ll cum in my pants.”

Both boys laughed and Brian said, “Maybe we should get rid of the pants.” Aaron reached forward and unbuckled Brian’s belt and unbuttoned, unzipped and removed his pants. He then sat Brian down and unlaced and removed each shoe, and then slipped Brian’s socks off his feet. Finally he had Brian stand up and he pulled his boxers down and had him step out of them. Brian then returned the favor, undressing Aaron the rest of the way so that both boys stood completely naked in front of each other.

The boys once again embraced, locking lips in a passionate kiss as they ground their dicks against each other. This time it was Aaron who took the initiative as he mimicked the moves Brian had made earlier, licking down Brian’s neck and chest and kissing and licking each nipple. Both boys were completely in sync with each other.

“How about a 69?” Brian said.

“That would be so cool. I’d love it!”

Aaron retrieved the flatter of the two gift-wrapped boxes from his night-stand and proceeded to open it. He tore off one condom from inside and handed it to Brian, and then tore off one for himself. He unwrapped his condom and anxiously unrolled it over the head of Brian’s dick, and then down the shaft. Brian in turn did the same with Aaron. They then lay down on Aaron’s bed, side by side and kissed each other for a few minutes before Brian started once again kissing his way down Aaron’s chest. He gently licked at Aaron’s navel and then continued his way downward, stopping when he reached the base of Aaron’s dick. He then flipped himself around, giving Aaron equal access.

Brian licked the head of Aaron’s dick and Aaron flinched at the sudden sensation. Aaron licked the tip of Brian’s dick and elicited the same reaction. Both boys were leaking precum heavily into their respective condoms. Brian went down on Aaron, taking nearly half of Aaron’s erection into his mouth and swirling his tongue around the sensitive head. Aaron mimicked Brian’s moves precisely. Both boys were in absolute heaven. They were getting close and they each seemed to sense it and backed off, allowing themselves to cool down a bit. Aaron then took the tip of his tongue and slowly licked it along the tender underside of Brian’s dick from the base to the sensitive spot just below the piss slit. Brian did the same to Aaron. Brian reached his mouth over Aaron’s dick and took one and then the other of Aaron’s balls into his mouth, gently and lovingly sucking on them. Aaron in turn did the same to Brian.

They then both went down on each other’s dicks again, this time going down all the way to the pubes. Aaron couldn’t believe he was doing this. He didn’t think he could swallow cock without gagging, but somehow this just came naturally. It felt so right. They bobbed up and down on each other’s dicks until they both felt near the edge, then again backed off and went back to sucking and licking each other’s balls. They repeated their ministrations several times, each time backing off just before they felt ready to cum.

Neither one of them talked — they just seemed to sense what the other wanted. After what seemed like more than an hour of doing this, without saying a word, they picked up their rhythm. They bobbed their heads up and down on each others’ shafts, sucking as much as they dared without ripping their condoms off. They groaned and moaned as each shot their loads into the condoms at nearly the exact same time. Neither one needed to warn the other — they both knew when they were about to blow. As they came down from their orgasms, they collapsed next to each other.

It was a while before either one could move. Finally, Brian turned himself back around so that he could look Aaron in the eyes. They both grinned at each other and Brian said, “Wow! I mean really, wow! That was unbelievable. Unbelievable. I’ve never felt anything close to that. I thought I’d had orgasms before, but nothing has ever felt anything like this one. Not one tenth as fucking good. That was just fucking amazing. Truly fucking amazing.”

“And that fucking description doesn’t even come fucking close!” The boys both giggled at that and then Aaron closed the distance between their mouths and they engaged in a passionate kiss. They kissed for what seemed like hours and then just lay together side by side talking about nothing in particular. They enjoyed each other’s company more than either one could say in words. Finally, when it was getting close to time for Brian to leave, they reluctantly got dressed and went back downstairs.

Aaron’s mom let him drive when they took Brian back to his house. They said their goodbyes and Aaron drove back home, his mother by his side.

“Sounds like you boys had a good time.”

“Mom!”

“I’m sorry, Aaron. I didn’t mean to spoil it for you, but you were a little loud.”

“Do you mind if we not talk about this — it’s kinda embarrassing.”

They were approaching their home by then anyway and just went inside. Aaron bounded upstairs and his brother came out of his room and grinned wickedly at him. “Man, you two went at it forever. I jerked off twice — you were just so hot and I couldn’t stand it. Not that I’m gay or anything, but the thought of you having sex next door was outrageous.”

“Glad you liked it, bro.” And with that they wished each other goodnight. After brushing his teeth and getting ready for the school day ahead tomorrow, Aaron found himself lying naked on his back in bed, staring up at the ceiling. He kept replaying the events of the day in his head, from the football game to the most mind-blowing sexual experience of his life. After a while, he drifted off to the most peaceful sleep he’d ever had.
