So what happened? There I was 35, divorced and hadn't dated in almost a year. Most of my early adulthood was filled with wild nights and times. When I was twenty I had more women in a month than I have in the past five years.
So I sat there in my one bedroom apartment trying to figure things out.
Heck even when I was younger- okay so I was experimenting... Once- with this guy... But that was a long time ago.
We were camping out just down the road a bit near a stream. And truth be told, all I wanted to do was get a look at "it" or maybe touch "it." However, I had spent so long working up the courage to brush up against "it" my mind starting telling me I would do anything.
I was so scared. I had laid there for hours ever so slowly letting my hand creep closer to him. I knew it had to be getting close to sunrise but it didn't matter- nothing else mattered at that point. The very first time that my hand rested against his underwear I thought I would lose it right then and there. Somehow, though, I managed.
With every breath my hand moved closer to its destination and just about the time the sun peeked over the horizon I took him into my hand. It was small barely an inch long, it was everything I imagined and more.
Suddenly, and lightening fast speed, Andy reached and grabbed a hold of my hand. Every nightmare I had ever had about that moment was coming true. I had fears of being called a fag and harassed for the rest of my life. My reputation and my future were ruined.
I tried to pretend like I was asleep but I was sure that he had caught me with my eyes wide opened. Much to my surprised he stared in my direction for several minutes. I guess he was trying to either decide what to do or if I was really asleep.
The fifteen seconds his eyes where on me where like three hours but eventually he released my wrist and fell back down to go to sleep.
And me...
I couldn't leave well enough alone.
I could here the birds begin to sing and more frequent cars passing by our little pup tent but that first feel only made me want more. I wanted, more than anything now, to touch skin.
I sleepily flopped over and rested my hand on his chest as if it were the most natural thing in the world. I waited for a reaction but...nothing. As he inhaled I tightened the muscles in my arm making it stiff and unmovable. When he exhaled I allowed his breath to carry my hand downward and closer to my prize.
