The decision made, Ronnie and I started making our plans. I handed in my resignation at work and had to work a month's notice period, which was fair enough. Ronnie had retired from the Civil Service last year so he didn't have a problem.
Ronnie came with me when I met my ex wife. I tried to tell her as gently as I could, not that it was anything to do with her now. I obviously still had feelings for her but they were different to the feelings I had for Ronnie. We were still both feeling delightfully loved up with each other. I didn't want to hurt her at all but she reacted badly. She had split with the guy she left me for and had thoughts that we might get back together one day. Ronnie held my hand, when I told her I was in love with him, I explained. We were in love with each other. She burst into tears and walked away. I felt dreadful but at least she knew where we stood.
My son, on the other hand, couldn't believe it. Didn't want to believe it. He was angry, again I felt dreadful but there was nothing I could do. Should I get back with my ex wife and try to live a 'normal' life? I know my son wanted that. He was in his twenties now, living his own life. He wasn't homophobic or anything like that, as he told me, 'it's just disgusting at my age.' In time, my son would come to terms with it and we could move on.
I put the house up for sale and was pleasantly surprised that it sold within the month and for more than I expected. I felt better knowing my ex wife was getting her share of the profit.
We looked at several properties and chose a property at the top of Leith Walk, just on the edge of the pink triangle in Edinburgh. A fantastic location for the gay community and plenty passing trade. We refurbished the coffee shop with plenty of colour and fabrics, it looked so homely. Ronnie had an eye for detail and it didn't take long before the place was looking fantastic. We named it 'The Edinburgh Retreat' A simple name and we had drawings of colourful butterflies surrounding the words on our sign. The butterflies bringing a feeling of colour and shape.
Once I worked my notice period, I moved in with Ronnie. We were together now. This was coinciding nicely with the work going on in the coffee shop. Ronnie had been taking care of the tradesmen who were refurbishing the shop for us. To relax, we decided to go to the Retreat for a night, before we opened for business in a few days time. Mark was more than happy to see us and gave us such a warm welcome. Ronnie and I were bowled over when Mark introduced us to Alan, his new boyfriend. I was so pleased for him. It's not easy for guys over fifty to meet a partner. They looked great together.
We went upstairs, following Alan as he led us to our room. This was a different room to where we had previously stayed. Gosh, what a surprise when Alan opened the door and stood back. There were candles burning all over the room and it looked so relaxing and inviting. Mark had placed two vases of flowers and Otis Redding was playing in the background. I put my arm around Ronnie as we gazed at the room. I hugged Alan, what a fantastic welcome to give us.
Mark came up and suggested that, as there were no other guests, we take our clothes off and relax downstairs. 'Supper in an hour,' he shouted as he dashed downstairs, undoing his shirt as he ran. Alan followed him and Ronnie and I started to undress.
About a month ago, Ronnie and I got tested at the GUM clinic and we were both clean. With all the serious action we had enjoyed at the retreat, we got tested to be sure. We also spoke to our family doctor who prescribed a small daily dose of Cialis and that was better than taking a larger dose when it was required and having a throbbing erection for hours, not that there was anything wrong with that at all. The daily dose gave us erections when we needed them, and that was nice. In fact, the daily dose was working just fine for us. It was like we were teenagers again.
We walked downstairs and into the lounge where Alan was looking through some Cd's for something to listen to. Oh my God, he was really well endowed. Not as big as Colin, but still huge. No wonder Mark was looking so pleased. I looked at the carved wooden penis in front of the log burner and smiled. I went up and touched it, stroking the head, remembering every minute of the 'celebration' a few weeks ago. We sat down, chatting and getting to know Alan. Mark called us through for supper.
It was so nice to be among friends. We ate, making small talk and watching the candles slowly burn. Mark confirmed he and Alan would be at our opening day and I was hoping that Colin and Neil would be there too. We hadn't seen them since the Edinburgh Festival.
After we finished, I helped Mark clean up while Alan and Ronnie enjoyed a brandy. I smiled at Mark as we both remembered the time he took me against the kitchen sink. God, I was feeling so happy and contented. We kissed and walked through to the lounge. Alan and Ronnie were sitting beside each other on the settee talking. We knelt down in front of our lovers.
I stroked Ronnie's legs and ran my fingers over his chest, feeling his thick hair. He was soft. I fondled his balls and squeezed his shaft, slowly wanking him and squeezing, my tongue tracing the shape of his beautifully crafted head. I moaned as I felt him stiffen in my grip. I knew how to get my man hard. I reached up and kissed him, tenderly. I held his face as I kissed him. Slowly, my tongue worked its way down his body again. God, he was hard. I looked at Alan's cock slipping in and out of Mark's mouth. He looked so sexy with his huge cock on display. Mark had been teaching him on the techniques that Ronnie taught us. I took Ronnie to the edge and stopped. He relaxed as I kissed him, his tongue teasing my mouth and then I sucked him again, moaning as I felt him again stopping at the exact moment.
I stood up and took his hand. Mark and Alan were still enjoying themselves as we left them and walked up to our room. The candles were still burning and the room was cast with a romantic glow. 'Take me, Ronnie, make love to me.'
