The Watcher

Now that he thought of it, he did remind himself not to pack so much this time. At the curb, an army of bellpersons stormed him like so much smoke. "I'm fine, really. I'll handle it myself. Thanks." In unison, the squadron turned heel and scattered. Some of them didn't speak any English, but they all knew "fuck off" when they heard it.

He liked to dress for travel. His trademark beat-up sweatshirt and jeans didn't win him any compliments as he boarded in LA, but that was okay. But this, this was different. Shlepping his (must be 200 pounds; did I pack an anvil in here?) luggage across the threshold of the Grand Kempinski's entrance doors left him feeling very slovenly indeed. His back spasmed briefly as he lowered his bags. Use your knees, stupid.

He shrugged off the sneer from the counter help as he checked in. Against his objections, she rang for a bellhop. No avoiding it now. A uniformed mule snapped-to and shouldered the bags. A slight rolling of the bellman's eyes said it all. Great. Now everyone knows I brought too much shit.

The room was about as nice as a hotel gets; they all have a certain claustrophobic squalor to them. He had flown out on a Friday to get the super-saver fare. Better things to do with a Friday night than sit alone in my hotel room, he thought. The parties and heavy drinking didn't start until next week -- what would he do with himself?

Actually, there was no mystery here. He always worked from the same menu of harmless vices when he traveled. Liquor was an absolute priority. Room service booze is for idiots. A call to the front desk revealed the location of a store nearby. While he was out, he thought he might indulge that other vice.

The clerk at the liquor store smiled broadly. Drinking was reserved for trips, and only after all the business of the day was done. He had no fears of drinking problems, even as he stuffed his three bottles into the paper sack and headed out. He could put it away. Enough liquor and mixer to last the week, for sure. Maybe even enough to share, if it came to that.

It never seemed to. He always traveled primed for that chance meeting he read about in the Playboy fantasy pages all the time, but he never managed to make so much as eye contact.

He had located a shop -- it was a fair drive away -- that offered up the tools to satisfy the rest of his shopping list. The Marine behind the counter silently filled his request for quarters, firing off a look of disgust that had "I'm only doing this for the money, you scumbag" written all over it. Pushing the curtain aside, an array of poorly-constructed booths lay before him, with equipment whirring and a jumble of scratchy soundtracks filling the room. There was plenty of eye contact to be had here, but all the wrong kind. It was Friday night, and the hookers and pushers were cruising up a storm. It was okay, even a little exciting; nobody ever said a word or got pushy. He did notice that he was being tracked -- at a discrete distance -- by an athletic blonde in a cut-off shirt. Those muscles were his business card, and when he knew he was being looked at, he'd immediately lock eyes with his examiner. Eyes that said, "I'll do you real good." Nice technique. Left no doubt that the man knew his business.

Light moved the shadows for a moment as a squat, nervous man wobbled into the room. Here was a man with a mission, he thought, watching the little man scan quickly from booth to booth, looking for that familiar circular hole between the booths. Finding one, he seemed greatly relieved. The man shot a look around the room, locked onto Mr. Eyes, and hurried into the booth. Quarters hit bottom, and moaning male voices came squawking through the speaker. The hooker took the booth next to him, arching eyebrows at the observer as he disappeared. "Could've been you," he intoned in a practiced voice.

He suddenly felt self-conscious -- how long have I been standing here watching this? The wry smile on the pretty black woman clued him that it had been long enough. Well, damn it, he was here to shop, but not for that. He nodded politely at his would-be hostess, found a booth that didn't have the requisite glory hole, and stepped inside. The black woman shuffled away as he did, muttering to herself. Shitty break, he thought, but fucking a hooker wasn't his idea of fun.

The floor was soaked, and his nose wrinkled as he pushed some tissues over to try to absorb a recently-expelled load. The musky smell was something he had gotten used to, though, and even liked a little. All eight quarters found their way into the coin box, and the screen came to life.

Of the 11 channels, six were rewinding, and four were so noisy that the picture wasn't visible. He mashed the channel button repeatedly in frustration. What a waste! He parked on channel 3 and waited for the others to rewind.

The soundtrack synced with the one the little man had selected, and two muscular men writhed around the screen. He was caught, for a moment, by the shapely curve of one man's ass. They were both naked, and, by any standards, both very attractive. On the screen, the men wrestled, laughing and tumbling on the floor, muscles straining and sweat glistening. Finally, the man with the nice ass (well, he had to admit, it was nice) seemed to lose, and the winner began running his hands over his prize.

The watcher stared as the men caressed each other, very lovingly, and exchanged kisses that seemed deep and real. This wasn't something he was used to seeing in porno. He watched on, and hardly noticed that his heart had begun to race.

The caressing continued, hands drifting over backs and inside thighs, kneading and circling. The winner's hand inched, teasingly, up his conquest's thigh. As the cocks on the screen began to rise, so did the watcher's. He felt a little flush -- this was new -- but he remained fixed. Finally, the winner's hand found its way to the stiffening cock, first gently massaging the balls, then tracing lines up the staff. He then grasped it firmly, causing his partner to raise his (yeah, nice!) ass off the bed. The camera went to close-up to show the exquisite stiffness, the purple head fully engorged thanks to the expert handling.

Several seconds of manipulation ensued, and both men became involved in stroking and kissing, cocks at full mast, hips pushing into each stroke. The loser began to kneel, but his bester shook his head and invoked the privilege of collecting war spoils. He kneeled before his defeated foe, never ceasing to pump slowly with one hand, and cupped the balls in his other. He licked his lips, and let his target stand on its own, twitching in anticipation as he approached it. His lips parted, and SNAP! The screen went back to the title display, shaking him out of his daze. He panicked for a moment, thinking he forgot what channel that was -- 3, right? He memorized the title, and exited the booth. There were the eyes, locking first with his, and then jumping south. The watcher's eyes followed instinctively, and he was surprised by his own crazed erection. He looked up to meet the eyes again, but this time they were no more than a foot away. The watcher swallowed hard and feared for his life, and felt a hand brush ever-so-slightly against his dick. "Twenty for everything you saw in there." The eyes motioned toward the booth -- he must have heard the soundtrack. Something inside the watcher's head said "go for it!" as he stood toe-to-toe with the smiling boy. But no. Shame and confusion overtook him as he tossed the curtain aside and rushed into the parking lot. He looked back nervously to see if he had been followed. No one.

A deep breath was called for, and taken. He sank into his car's seat, fumbling for his keys. Got to think this one through. I watched two men getting it on, and found it very exciting. They seemed so into it, I couldn't help myself. What does that make me?

Wait a fucking minute. He stopped in mid-fumble, and mentally slapped himself. What am I getting so shook up about? I got randy over two men making out. I'm not some neanderthal. I can deal with it. Forget that, I want to know more!

He was already back inside by the time that last thought was completed. He marched purposefully up to the clerk, and asked to rent the title he had seen on channel 3. The clerk winced ("great, a faggot scumbag. I wish my mom would let me move back in"), and the watcher rushed to pad the order with the first hetero porn title his eyes came upon. The clerk handed over the bag as if contaminated, and disappeared. "Probably washing his hands," thought the watcher.

An all-night "regular" video rental place handed over a rental VCR in exchange for a $200 imprint of his credit card. He parked in the garage, hoisted his booty, and headed for the doors of the hotel. The bellhops converged, then dispersed again as they remembered that the fuck-off man could handle his own bags, screw you very much.

Minutes later, the room was stocked with ice, a glass filled with liquid sedative solution (and a twist of lime), and the VCR cabled to the TV. He reached for a video, and grabbed the channel 3 title. Not yet, he thought. A little too much to deal with in such short time. The hetero porn tape went into the VCR, and he carried his drink to the bed.

The tape went exactly as every other porno tape he'd ever seen: bad acting, superfluous plots, limp dicks and overdubbed soundtracks. It was that or Oprah reruns, and it was as good a background as any for the drinks. Oddly, he viewed the humping and sucking on screen with a detachment he hadn't experienced before; there was no burning need to unbutton his fly, in fact, no hard-on at all.

Partway through the third stiff drink, the film faded to black. Hallelujah, he thought. It wasn't until he came to his feet that he remembered how much he had to drink. He liked that slightly off-balance sensation. He wasn't bombed, but was clearly inebriated. Cruising altitude.

Any embarrassment or shame he felt earlier was gone now, drowned or just plain gone. The "other" tape threaded and whirred away, and the watcher settled back onto the bed with a fresh (and considerably less alcoholic) drink in hand. The titles rolled, complete with cheesy music, and the watcher noticed an erection coming on before any skin was visible on screen.

In an opening scene, two somewhat less attractive men had gotten down to serious sucking, but the watcher was similarly enraptured. They knew just what to do, taking the shaft deep for a few strokes, then backing off and swirling around the tip. As he studied, he felt the same flush he'd felt earlier, and found that his cockskin seemed about ready to split. He'd never been this excited, and he reached for the snap on his jeans.

The phone rang. Shit! He considered not answering, but he was there on business. Could be some client with an emergency.

"Hello?"

"Larry?"

"What?" The soundtrack seemed much louder now.

"Is this Larry?"

"No. Nobody here by that ... "

"Look, I'm in the lobby. 1714, right? I'm on my way up to get those drinks you promised me."

"But ... "

Click. The stranger was on his way up. Did I make an appointment I forgot about? Or is this the guy from the adult bookstore? There wasn't time to think. The elevator chimed, and the door rattled with a powerful knock only seconds later. Might as well open it and figure this thing out. Besides, he was at least one sheet to the wind, and not thinking clearly enough to formulate a strategy.

He opened the door. A tall, well-formed man with wavy brown hair stood in the doorway, but not for long. "Hey, nice room. I wound up at the Holiday Inn. What a shithole." The stranger was inside, and made a beeline straight for the liquor. "Ahhh. Booze. You can't know how happy I am to see this."

The stranger's eyes settled on the TV, where two scantily-clad men were wrestling furiously and pulling at each other's clothes. The mixer he was pouring overflowed the glass and spilled out onto the counter as his eyes and mouth widened simultaneously.

Geez! The watcher sprinted to the VCR and fumbled for the STOP button. Shit! Shit, shit, shit, shit! as he pressed one button after another. The men were tearing clothes off each other in fast motion now, the first pair of briefs coming off just as the cord was pulled from the wall. "Video store fucked up" was the only explanation he offered. "Help yourself to a drink and have a seat." He moved briskly to the bathroom to see just how red his face was. A few deep breaths, a splash of cold water, and a flush of the toilet left him feeling a bit less rattled. He listened intently at the bathroom door to see if he could figure out what the stranger was up to, and swore he heard the crappy soundtrack music very low. He opened the door slowly, to find the stranger eying the description on the box of the evening's first tape. "She's cute. But she isn't in the movie, right?" Good, no reason to be ashamed of a liking for porn. Wait -- where is the other box? I left it ...

His eyes shot to the counter where he remembered laying the box down; it wasn't there. It had been moved to the table, or had it? Maybe he was drunker than he thought.

"No, the great-looking women on the boxes are never in the movies, or, at least, not looking as good as that." The stranger chuckled and eased back in his chair. There. Crisis averted. Now to find out who the hell this guy is.

"You have me at a disadvantage; I must confess that I don't know who you are."

"That's okay," the stranger said as he waved off any significance to the question. "We met at this show last year. We rested our feet in the bar after a particularly long day. You left after one drink, telling me you preferred to drink in your room. Cheaper, and better atmosphere, you said. That's when I invited myself to share a drunk with you sometime, and you said "sure." Maybe you didn't mean it, you know, like 'let's do lunch.' If you want me to leave ... "

"No, no, if I said 'sure,' I meant 'sure.' But how did you come to call me Larry?"

"Wrong one, huh? I'm lousy with names. Look, it seems like I'm not welcome here, so I'll just go."

The stranger stood, but the watcher was determined. If his mood was to be ruined, at least he could have a drinking companion for a while. Besides, he had a nice ...

Stop that! Stupid asshole. Don't let your liquor and libido gang up on you. Jerking off to tapes and smiling at gigolos are one thing, but get that other thought out of your mind. The block was in place. It was shaky, but it held. He poured a mild drink for himself, bade his guest to remain, and resumed his station on the bed, propped up by pillows.

The unidentifiable sitcom was pre-empted by the stranger's hand on the volume knob. The TV was the only light in the room, so he didn't turn it off, but obviously wanted to talk and didn't wish to shout.

"You sure know how to travel."

The watcher remembered the elephantoid load of luggage and sneered. "Yeah, right. I fucked up my back lugging the entire contents of my closet into this place. I definitely do not travel well."

"Oh, but you do where it counts. Liquor and porn, in the comfort of your own room. Porno might be bad, but it's always better than whatever's on regular TV." The stranger picked up a videotape box, eying the revealing photo again. "You're sure she's not in that movie?"

"See for yourself." The stranger rose to turn on the VCR, and the watcher remembered that the other tape was still loaded. He sprinted across the room -- "I'll take care of it" -- and practically knocked the stranger out of his seat. He hunched over the VCR to conceal the label of the tape as it came out. He had already pressed "eject" (found it easy enough this time) before he realized -- "I thought I unplugged this thing."

The other tape was tucked away in preparation for a good hiding place. Under the blankets on the bed seemed passable, but his stride was broken by the rattle of plastic. Oh, no. Just as it was about to be swept under the bed, the stranger piped up. "What's that? Hey, it's not fair to keep the good stuff for yourself." A hand dashed out and snatched the tape. The stranger grinned as he read the title. He held up the tape. "This is the one you got by mistake, right?"

Does that mean he bought my story? "Yeah, that's it."

"That other tape looks boring. If I can't see the woman on the cover, I'm not interested. Let's watch this one instead."

Before any protest could be lodged, tapes had been exchanged and the lewd screenplay resumed from where it was. The stranger poured himself another drink. Glancing to the squirming bodies on TV, then the watcher's eyes, then the TV again, he said, "looks familiar." He paused. "Looks ... interesting."

The scene from the booth played again, with the watcher settled on the bed, and the stranger in his chair nearer the TV. The watcher felt a little self-conscious, but couldn't help but get wrapped up as before with these two men stroking and kissing each other. There was no quarter's worth now, and things advanced again to the point where the winner was collecting his spoils, and continued this time. The watcher's erection was stiff and moist, and seemed to be aided by the fact that he was no longer watching alone. He studied the stranger's face, and traced down the rest of his physique. The stranger would occasionally look back with a "look at that" or "how do they do that" expression, forcing the watcher to avert his eyes quickly. But he began to feel that he was being studied, too.

The men on the screen had truly gotten down to business. They were locked in a fearsome 69, with the winner on top pumping his cock into his adversary's mouth. His balls were being tickled by adept fingers, and the mix of saliva and jism left a glistening sheen on the shaft as it appeared, then disappeared again. The loser wasn't being neglected, either, because he was being sucked with abandon as well.

The winner's technique was a mix of hands and mouth, and his poor subject apparently had all he could do to keep from blowing his load. From the bottom, muffled groans of pleasure could be heard as the cock was driven, again and again, into his mouth. If it stood still too long, he'd go after it, opening his jaws wide and taking his master deep, kicking off more pumping. The winner lifted his head and moaned, more frequently as the session went on, but always working with the hands, keeping his partner's nerve endings shouting with joy. Then, as he lifted his head again, the winner closed his eyes and tilted his head back. He growled low, and everything stopped. He took a few stuttered breaths. His partner began again, moving his head slowly up and down the length of the shaft, pausing teasingly at the right moments, licking playfully at the pre-cum soaked tip. He took the cock in his mouth again, excruciatingly slowly engulfing it from tip to base, then starting a rhythm again.

First, slowly, then rising in tempo until his partner nearly shouted in pleasure as his cock was swallowed again and again. The loser squeezed his master's ass hard in time with the strokes, and traced between his buns to tickle his hole and balls. Finally, the great groan was heard, as the cock jumped out of the loser's mouth. It was immediately met with two hands -- one tightly gripping and stroking the shaft, another vigorously massaging the taut scrotum -- and there was cum. It came in great spurts, each one causing his back to arch. It seemed to go on forever as his partner giggled happily.

The watcher's erection threatened to unbutton his pants for him. The scene drew to a close as the men kissed and cuddled on the screen, then faded out. An attempt at plot intervened as both members of the film's audience drew heavy sighs.

The stranger was first to stand. He stretched and arched backward, revealing that he had problems of his own. The outline of his swollen dick was clearly visible through his thin dress slacks; you could even discern the shape of the head. The watcher didn't know what made a cock "nice," but this one, shrouded though it was, led him to some wild imaginings.

It had been some time since the last drinks, and the stranger held up a drained bottle. "I can fix that," the watcher proclaimed as he headed for the bag in the closet. He bent over to pick it up and -- zing! -- his back spasmed again. "Whoa." The stranger rushed over. "What is it? Are you okay?"

"Yeah. I must've really messed up my back downstairs."

"You go back and sit down. I'm mooching your liquor, so the least I can do is mix for you." He did, and shortly a full glass was placed in his hands. "You know, you probably didn't do any serious damage. I know how to fix it." The spasm had subsided, but this sounded interesting. "How would you do that?"

"Lie down, face down, and I'll show you." The watcher pushed a pile of pillows aside and stretched out on the bed. Felt nice. The extra pressure against his cock brought an instinctive push into the bed. Mustn't do that.

The stranger stood next to the bed. His hands were warm and strong, and worked the watcher's back and shoulders through the fabric. "Um, it works better," the stranger said, "if you lose this " He tugged at the shirt. The watcher turned face-up, grasped the cuff of his shirt and pulled it over his head. The stranger watched approvingly, then offered more advice. "Actually, if you want a real massage, you have to dress down a little more. Then you won't have to get up again. Okay? Go change, and grab a towel from the bathroom. Wearing something that loose will help relax you."

Relax? The watcher's heart was pounding as he stood in front of the bathroom mirror. "This is stupid, this is really stupid" he thought as he took off his pants. Standing in his briefs, his nervousness had lost him the erection he'd started hours ago. Now he had to decide how much more to lose. The briefs hit the floor, and a towel was tucked -- securely -- around his waist.

He came out in his towel to find the bed had been rearranged. "Lie down," he was instructed, "close your eyes and relax." The watcher obeyed, taking a giant tug on the drink on the nightstand as he descended.

The stranger knelt on the bed, and spoke again. "I found this," holding a bottle of baby oil close enough to see, "on your dresser. Okay if I use it?" The oil was there, well, for personal use. Seemed appropriate now.

A nod was offered in response, and the sounds which followed added to the suspense. The popping of the top, the squirting of the oil into the palms, the rubbing together of the hands to warm them. Then, first contact. Aahhh, wonderful. He was being worked on at the shoulders first, kneading the muscles and working between the shoulderblades firmly. There was just the right amount of oil -- no dripping.

The stranger's hands felt good as they worked their way down, fingering the muscles on either side of the spine, and pushing out to the sides. Nerves there were sensitive; when the hands reached around toward the front, it should have tickled. Instead, it sent a rush of warmth. The watcher lifted his arms over his head to give the hands more room.

Every response was noted, for when the hands would come upon some region that elicited a reaction, that region would be revisited repeatedly. The hands worked the sides of the watcher's torso a lot.

The massage went on, deliciously, for a long time. Every muscle in his back and sides was manipulated, every nerve stimulated. When the lower back was reached, a nerve was struck -- "yow!" "That needs work, but -- don't take this the wrong way -- the towel is in the way." About ready to melt into the bed, the watcher needed no encouragement. "It's history." But he was far too relaxed to move to take it off. The stranger offered his assistance, and unwrapped the towel from his host. He caught a brief but interesting view from behind as the watcher lifted himself to let the towel slide out. "One more thing," the stranger said. "I don't want to get oil all over these clothes. If you have a pair of pajamas ... " He was still trying to be polite. "I don't wear them, but there are still plenty of towels."

"Thanks a lot." A few moments later, the towel-clad stranger returned to the bed. "Now, we're ready for a serious backrub." The stranger knelt again, and warmed the oil in his hands for another assault. It started at the shoulders again, just as before. Then, the stranger straddled the watcher, taking a seat on his ass. The towel prevented contact, and the watcher's shoulders were worked with such renewed vigor that he didn't mind at all. The entire back was worked again, down the the base of the spine.

As he worked the tension there, the stranger made occasional circles of the watcher's buns, moving down a little further with each pass. This was wonderful, but the stranger seemed very tentative about it, still not wishing to offend. Only once or twice was there a full encircling of his ass. It felt so good, the watcher could have had his buns rubbed all night.

From there, the stranger moved on to the tops of the legs, and again straddled his patient facing the other way. This time, the towel splayed, and the stranger's buns and balls were dropped squarely on the watcher's slippery ass. At first, the stranger rose with an "Oh!" and began to tuck the towel in. No delays, please, thought the watcher. "It's okay. Just don't stop." The stranger settled back down slowly, a little shaky, and the watcher felt the hair of his balls, and the tip of his soft cock, as he touched down. The stranger leaned forward to resume working on the legs, and couldn't help sliding around on the watcher's backside. Both parties enjoyed this but tried to keep it to themselves. But the watcher noticed that the soft cock tip could no longer be felt.

The stranger stayed put as he worked just above the knees, leaning forward. The stranger's towel fell against the watcher's oily body, and was set aside. Each time he leaned forward, his balls pressed hard against his patient's buns. Both were now far past aroused. The watcher raised his ass slightly -- very slightly -- to try to touch the stranger's cock. The stranger ass then slid backwards onto the watcher's lower back; suddenly, the entire length of his cock was lodged in the watcher's split. The stranger didn't know quite what to do, but as his cock twitched and expanded, the body beneath him began to buck gently, drawing his cock deeper into the crack. Once there, the watcher began to tilt his hips, stroking the cock above him with the crack of his ass. The stranger was still kneeling facing the watcher's feet, and he wrapped his hands around one of the watcher's legs, rubbing his face against it has he began to pump. He reached up with his hand and pushed his cock deeper into the crevice, pressing the shaft against the hole and the tip against the base of the watcher's balls when he thrusted fully forward. The watcher's rocking hips grabbed the stranger's cock, and the stranger's hand pressed harder to feel the outline of the watcher's hole. This was heaven.

"Might you," came the breathless voice of the stranger, "roll over?" The stranger lifted himself off slowly, allowing his prick to trace over the watcher's ass. He couldn't resist dropping himself down again, grinding his hips deeply, and forcefully fucking the length of the watcher's split. He rolled off, and the watcher brought himself face-up.

The stranger straddled again, this time looking in the watcher's eyes, and applied a great amount of oil to the watcher's straining cock. He smiled, and slid forward until the base of the watcher's cock was firmly in his crack, and the glistening tip showed between his balls. The stranger oiled his hands again, and started rocking. He massaged the watcher's chest, circling the nipples and surrounding the neck with his hands. As he rocked, the watcher pumped, holding tight to the stranger's arms.

The stranger leaned backwards, putting his hands near the watcher's knees, to bring more of his ass to bear on the watcher's slippery cock. The stranger couldn't move much in this position, but the watcher happily did all the work, thrusting himself up and down the split. The watcher moistened his palms with oil from his chest, and grasped the stranger's prick with both hands. The stranger's cock felt good, responding to every touch. He worked the stranger's shaft and balls deftly, both hands working while still grinding away at the stranger's ass. When a drop of jism appeared, the watcher had to have that cock in his mouth. He pulled the stranger onto his chest, held his cock firmly in one hand, and began to lick the tip. With each circling of his tongue, the stranger's hips pushed forward. He moved back, wanting to take things at his own speed. He licked his lips and placed them, slightly parted, on the tip of the stranger's cock. He drew it into his mouth slowly, surrounding it with his lips as it entered, and pressing his tongue against the underside of the shaft.

The stranger began to pump, and his lover pushed forward to meet every thrust. Every few thrusts, the watcher experimented with taking the cock deeper, noticing that the deeper he went, the more response he got. After testing himself for a time, the watcher felt confident and swallowed the stranger's cock up to the base. The stranger stopped in full thrust, squeezing his ass tight and pushing as far forward as he could. The watcher held his cock deep for a long time, massaging the shaft with his tongue. He tickled the stranger's balls, pressing between them and working his thumb up and down the very base of his cock. The stranger drew a fast breath as his balls drew taut, and the watcher knew his lover was about to come. He wanted to watch and to feel it on his skin. He slowly withdrew the cock from his throat, and began furiously sucking and tonguing the top inch. The stranger's moaning and breathing spun the watcher into a frenzy, and he did everything he knew how to get his guest to come.

The stranger was overwhelmed by the sensations emanating from his groin. The pleasure grew in circular waves, involving more and more of his nerves. Each move he made accentuated the feeling, and he fought to keep from coming; he didn't want this feeling to end. He felt the fluid rise from deep inside him, drawn out by the talented man sucking away at his cock. The tongue circled and darted and moved this way and that, the hand squeezed and stroked in cooperation, and another hand gently tickled the hair on his balls. Ripples moved through him as the tongue danced across the most sensitive regions of his cock. The waves centered somewhere behind his cock and reached out to every muscle, making each one shiver with joy as it absorbed another wave. He could feel his come surging inside him, rushing to escape. He fought it, enjoying the delicious torture of holding himself on the very edge, his cock fully engorged, the liquid pushing to get out. He figured he could hold out for at least a while longer.

The stranger's balls grew tauter still, and his eyes rolled back. The watcher fixed his eyes on the tip of his lover's cock and stroked it furiously. He slid a finger between his lover's legs, between his balls and hole, and pressed and stroked the skin there. The stranger bucked, and the first hot jet spurted out and struck his lover on the chin. The second was a moment or two in coming, but was even stronger than the first. The watcher's fingers were busily massaging away, drawing the liquid from deep inside. After two long, powerful jets, the stranger's cock began pulsing more rapidly, pushing out more and more come. White rivers ran from the stranger's pulsing purple head, down his cock, flowing over the hands and spilling onto the chest of his lover. The orgasm continued as fingers seemed to find every reserve and empty it. The pulsing subsided, leaving the watcher's chest and neck splattered with come.

The watcher caressed the legs of his lover, and played in the coating of come on his chest.

The stranger took some time to recover. He sat there, breathing and swallowing hard, for the longest time.

It was long enough that the watcher became concerned. "Are you okay?"

The stranger shifted his gaze from the ceiling to the watcher's face. His hair was matted, and beads of sweat stood as though painted onto his face and body. What a sight. "Yeah." The stranger was seriously out of breath. "Just need to catch my breath." He paused, drawing deep the musky atmosphere they had created in the room. He moved from his lover's chest and headed, still panting, toward the bathroom. The towel he pitched was gratefully received, and put to work sopping up the sweat and various other fluids. He spoke as the watcher walked toward him.

"Never did it with another guy before. I don't know what got into me." The stranger stared at himself in the mirror, drinking water from cupped hands. "I don't even want to know how many risks I just took."

The watcher wanted to be angry, but he could see the fear in the stranger's face. "It's not like that. I ... I had no idea this would happen. Look, I don't go to bed with strangers, either. Strange men. Or women. Men or women ... I don't ... You came into my room, I still don't know who you are -- I should be the one who's scared."

"I'm sorry -- I overreacted. I thought maybe you were one of those guys who'd fuck anything that moved. But, this was, like, a big surprise to you, too?"

"Yeah. Nothing like this ever happens to me. I mean, I never took a risk before, tried something new. I just watched others indulge their hunger. Fascinating to me that they had the nerve. There's so much inside that says, "be good," and until tonight, I always let that voice prevail. Until tonight." The watcher looked down. "This is the first time I did instead of watched. The first time I was involved in my own fantasy. I got so used to jerking off to someone else's script that I just took for granted I'd never experience anything that hot, that real, for myself."

"Well, then ... it was good?"

"Good? Shit, are you kidding? Mister, I'll never have to rent another movie. I can just play back my memories of tonight. It was incredible; thank you."

The stranger's ego was rising, but it wasn't alone. In the bright light of the bathroom, they could see each other very clearly. The watcher was hunched close to the mirror, trying to get his friend's load out of his hair. The stranger appreciated the view, fixing his eyes on the watcher's ass. The watcher finished cleaning up, but felt the eyes on him. He stayed in that position, and even stood on his toes and leaned closer to the mirror. "Nasty boy," he thought.

The faucet handles squeaked as they turned, and soon the shower's steam began filling the room. The stranger disappeared into the stall, sliding the door shut. The watcher wanted to join, but hesitated. Their conversation left him feeling a little unsure. Then the door slid open, just a bit, and a hand appeared, motioning "come here."

The watcher stepped into the shower, to be greeted by the stranger's ass pointed right at him. The stranger stood and turned, with soap in one hand, a washcloth in another, and obviously fully recovered from their previous romp. There were no words, just a motion to turn around.

The soap needed help lathering in the thick coating of oil on the watcher's back. The washcloth found its way to skin after some effort, and the stranger stepped aside to give a rinse. He watched the soap cascade down his friend's back and ride down between his cheeks. They both closed their eyes for a moment, imagining what fate might await them in this steamy haven.

The watcher spun round to get the other side tended to. His neck and chest were washed with vigor, a rich, slippery foam left standing. The stranger arched his eyebrows for a moment, grinned, and began moving southward with the soap. The washcloth was set aside, as was the soap after the palms were sufficiently coated.

The watcher hadn't gotten off on the bed. He enjoyed his friend's ecstasy so much that it didn't matter, but now that things seemed to be starting again, he rolled his eyes back and prepared to soak up every sensation. The hands slid around his groin first, barely touching his hair. They swirled around his legs, playing up the suspense. His cock was twitching, pleading, giving out with the jism built up from their previous encounter. A hand cupped his balls from underneath as another took hold of his cock. It felt so good his knees nearly gave out. The stranger watched intently as he stroked his partner slowly, balls rolling in his hands.

The stranger moved closer, his own cock just a few inches away. The watcher reached out to touch it -- the stranger motioned "no, no." The stranger reached between his partner's legs, bending down to reach his slippery hands up, past the balls, over the sensitive patch, to his friend's hole. He played there for only a moment, then slid his hands from where they were to a firm grip on the watcher's ass. He pulled, and they slapped together, their cocks standing hard, side by side. They held each other tightly, the spray bouncing off the stranger's back, hands everywhere. They began rocking their hips, rubbing against each other, feeling their nipples slide across the coarse chest hair, feeling each other's smooth pricks fuck the tiny space between them.

The watcher coated his hands with soap, and backed away a little bit. He took his own cock in hand and began to stroke, pumping into it with his hips. Just when the stranger thought he was in for a show, the watcher bound their cocks together in one hand. The stranger titled his head a little -- what is this guy up to? -- but soon had something else on his mind. The watcher rolled his hand, sliding the fronts of their cocks against each other, adding vertical motion with his hips. He kneaded as he gripped their cocks tightly, and circled the swollen tips with his thumb.

The pleasure produced by this was so constant that both men were dazed, grunting softly and fucking the watcher's hand. The watcher's other hand found its way to his lover's balls, and again he sought out that region that had brought forth the soaking he got earlier. The stranger retaliated, reaching around and massaging the watcher's ass. He massaged, then bent over a little for better position, soaped up one hand, and began working deeply into his lover's crack. He felt the buns squeeze together with each humping stroke, and rubbed up and down in preparation for his attack.

Nothing had slowed. The watcher continued to knead their straining cocks together, but was a little distracted by all that activity going on around back. He felt little rushes each time the fingers crossed over his hole, and he'd push instinctively. They had a fine rhythm going. A finger placed itself directly over his opening, and began to wiggle, and push gently inward. The watcher's heart raced -- this new sensation was intoxicating -- and tilted to offer a better angle. The finger vibrated and pushed more insistently, and finally broke through. The pressure in his cock rose substantially. He stood on his toes and rotated his ass on the finger. It went deeper, slowly, stroking the distance each time. The friction made his groin muscles quiver, and his cock skin stretched tighter. The stranger could feel his lover pulsing and straining against him. He stepped aside, letting the shower spray wash away the soap, and dropped to his knees. Leaving his finger in place, he surrounded the watcher's cock head with his lips. He felt the smooth skin against his tongue, the head pressing against the back of his mouth. He laid his tongue flat on the underside of the captive prick, and launched his final assault.

He let his finger stand still for a while as he slowly started gliding his tongue, front to back, side to side, on the underside of the watcher's cock. He felt the body tremble in his hands, and let the tempo rise slowly, licking faster, pressing harder. He bobbed his head, and the watcher accepted the invitation to start thrusting into his mouth. He searched for the seam between the shaft and head, and worked it with the full width of his tongue. The head grew bigger, the skin tighter, and he knew it was time. He began vibrating his finger in its channel, short, fast strokes. His lover's knees buckled and the cock came out of his mouth. He gripped it with his free hand and milked it, still rapidly stroking the finger in the watcher's ass. He pushed downward on his finger and concentrated on the wall just inside his lover's opening, rubbing hard with the tip of his finger. He put the watcher back in his mouth.

The watcher's senses were overloaded. The tongue on his cock was working in the same areas he used to bring himself off -- how did he know? -- but the feeling of a finger in his ass was incredible. Each stroke sent pleasure streaming from his hole, through a channel to the base of his balls, into them, then up his cock to the head, where a tongue was working furiously. Each wave would subside, then another would come crashing in. The path was so plain he could follow it down, and the nerves in each region gave out with a different flavor of pleasure. Then there was a squeeze, a hard one, on his shaft, and his balls pulled tight. The stroking in his ass brought fluid surging through his pipes in a rhythm. His ass pulled tight around the finger. He fought it, allowing only a dribble to escape, but then the stranger took him deep, and rammed the vibrating finger its full distance. Valves opened involuntarily, and he gushed into the stranger's mouth. The tongue stopped moving for an instant -- surprise! -- but then resumed. The nerves on his head were dancing as the stranger sucked hard and gripped his squirting cock firmly. He thought he might pass out as the finger and tongue coaxed load after load from his balls. The tongue slowed, the finger was withdrawn, and his vision began to return. The stranger reared his head back to wash the come from his face, and smiled. That had to have been the warmest smile the watcher had ever seen, he thought, but remembered experiencing it before: It was exactly like the one he gave the stranger after pleasuring him on the bed.

Hugs were exchanged, and soap was again applied, but for cleaning this time. The stranger caught a glimpse of the clock as he stepped from the shower, and apologized to his host. An early-morning meeting meant he needed some sleep that night. "Damn," thought the watcher, who was counting on an opportunity to get even. The stranger dressed, hugged the watcher again, thanked him, and left.

The watcher climbed into bed, reveling in the musky smells, and propped his hands behind his head. His cock tingled against the cool sheet, and he stared at the ceiling, remembering. That was the best night of sex in his life, but it was more than that. He felt he had connected with the man, more than sexually, forming an instant friendship that was deeper than any he'd known until now. There had to be something to that.

But wait -- he didn't leave his number. He said he was at the Holiday Inn, but I don't even know his name. Maybe I'm the only one who felt that connection. Maybe I'm alone in wanting to see him again. Well, shit, mister. What did you expect? Besides, the sex was incredible, can't you be satisfied with that?

He couldn't. He felt strangely alone, almost abandoned. He had shared his body with this man, but, without knowing it, came to care for him. And, by all appearances, he was alone in that.

Sleep didn't come easily that night. The watcher tortured himself, imagining that he'd never see the stranger again, never know his name, never know whether he was married, or liked Christmas, or thought the Persian Gulf was justified. They made love, but they never talked.

The watcher buried himself in the conferences and BOFS, daydreaming through his tutorials. The tapes and VCR went back, the remaining liquor went untouched, and he spent nights watching inane TV in his room.

Wednesday's party was something he normally never missed, but he didn't feel like it tonight. But a couple of friends who arrived Wednesday morning left a message at the desk that they'd meet him in the bar before the party. He felt like a robot as he dressed and made his way to the lobby. His friends greeted him boisterously, and had a drink waiting for him at the bar.

"Look at all these people," friend #1 piped up. "Wall-to-wall nerds." His friends -- maybe acquaintances -- had cushy government jobs and looked down on the students and other less-affluent types that attended this show. "The nerds don't bug me," offered friend #2, who showed signs of having an early start on the evening's drinking. "It's the fucking queers. You can spot 'em, even the ones who aren't wearing the stupid T-shirts. I'm telling you, you suck one dick, and everything changes. You can tell from looking at faggot that he fucks guys. Makes me sick."

The watcher stirred his drink, lost in thought. This guy doesn't have a clue. I should tell him. I should blow this asshole's mind and tell him everything I did on Friday night. Every gory detail, down to the last squirt. I wonder if he'd ...

"Hey, Larry!" The watcher knocked his glass over as he turned toward the voice. There stood the stranger, in his Sunday fines, his eyes gleaming at the sight of his friend. He came over to the bar and shook the watcher's hand with vigor. "My business called me back to California for a couple of days, but I couldn't miss the party." One corner of his mouth smiled shakily, and his eyes grew misty. "I missed you, buddy." They shook hands -- with both hands -- again, holding the grip for more than a cordial handshake demands.

The friends were busy playing "lookit the fags" and reassuring each other about their heterosexuality. "I could never ... " "Oh, no way, me neither" "That guy over there -- the one with the hair -- I bet he ... " "Oh, yeah, no shit. Ewww. Grosses me out, man."

The watcher and stranger listened to this banter for a while, then winked at each other and left the bar. The stranger put his arm around the watcher's waist. They looked at each other, and the watcher knew they'd be spending more time together. "Do you like Christmas?" the watcher asked as he slipped his arm around the stranger's waist.

Friend #2 came running up and grabbed the watcher by the shoulder. He took a gulp from his drink and said "You shouldn't walk around like that. I mean, I know you guys are just good friends who haven't seen each other in a while, but other people here will think ... well, they'll think you're queer. There's a lot of them here, you know. Makes me sick."

"Yep," said the watcher, squeezing the stranger's waist tighter. "But you can't really spot them just by looking."

"Bullshit. I've been doing it for years, man. It's easy. I've got this system, see, I look for ... "

"Well, your system sucks, because you missed two right before your eyes."

Friend #2 looked around, challenged. "Where? Where??"

The watcher and stranger walked away, and the stranger moved his hand to the watcher's pocket. They agreed, as they left, that they hoped that drink didn't spill on anyone on its way to the floor.
