Jorge left Anson's apartment, bed, and arms on a high, ready for Monday of the last two weeks of his job at the hospital before his "decompression" LWOP months off began. He was a physician's assistant and registered nurse, and had concentrated on respiratory issues for a few years during the COVID crisis. Jorge was, as the name suggests, Latino, 32, from a one parent family (mother). During the pandemic, he had worked crazy hours, seen many of his patients pass away, and maintained his sanity with frequent visits to the gym. Now, he needed a break and the hospital had reluctantly agreed.
Jorge was 5-11, with a light dusky complexion, black curly hair, dark brown eyes, a square face and gym-rat muscles. He was a sharp dresser (when not in the ubiquitous scrubs), sensuous and touchy-feely. He was the epitome of the Latin lover—and gay.
Jorge had originally planned to take his break at Yellowstone, working a few hours per day in the rangers' "cut and bruise" center while taking in the natural scenery of the famous national park. But, he had responded to a curious hook-up request on an upscale dating site, spent a few nights with Anson—and Anson had invited him to join a two month long grand Asian vacation—as travel companion "with benefits."
Anson Powell is a 52 year old widower, a lawyer, and in mourning for his long-diseased, but recently deceased, spouse. He is ready to explore his bi side. He is lively, intelligent, and social and is frequently taken for someone 15 years younger. He is 6-2, with dark curly hair (no salt in his pepper yet), in shape, lightly cut, and very well-endowed. He assumed he was a confirmed top—although he had had no male on male experience during his marriage. If Anson tanned enough, Jorge could pass for his younger brother, but probably not his son—Anson looked too young.
As Jorge had been dressing (in Anson's apartment) before leaving for work, after their second date and first full night together—which had convinced Anson to invite him on the trip, Anson had invited Jorge to spend a night during the week and the following three-day weekend. Jorge had smiled in response. The night had been wonderful. Never before had he fallen so hard for a hook (lover?) in just a week.
With the pandemic drifting down in fits and starts, Jorge now found that he had a little more time to spend with patients. And he realized, of course, that most were no longer terminal. He was beginning to look forward to each day. He loved the health industry which he had joined after a stint in an Army medical unit and formal education. He greeted his colleagues with a ready smile and picked up his schedule for the day, planning to confer with the night staff who were "handing over" their charges. Sarah, one of his good friends, had had the night shift and was off for home. She began her review of the evening's issues, but stopped and stared at Jorge. "Something's different. You look like someone that Santa has just visited. Did you find someone this weekend?"
"As usual, I can't keep anything from you. I did meet this guy and we've had two dates already. I'm hoping he is a keeper—and that he feels the same way."
"I don't have time now. Dan is working today and I need to relieve my mother who is watching our baby. But, tomorrow I want all the details, Jorge."
"I promise. But here is the teaser. He's asked me to take a vacation with him in two weeks."
"I thought you were off to Yellowstone, alone. If you're considering this, I can't wait. See you tomorrow morning."
The day went quickly. He was busy but not frantic. After work he called Anson. "Wednesday night, I'm free. I get off around 7 and could be at your place around 8."
"Great. I'll make some dinner. Plan to spend the night."
Wednesday afternoon, Anson prepared his version of boeuf bourguignon—something that would keep if he and Jorge wanted to play before dining. He set out the plates and serving utensils. Then he set up drink stuff and a small plate of shrimp. He had no idea how much Jorge ate—or what he ate. The security concierge called to announce Jorge's arrival and he was sent up. Anson met him at the elevator. Jorge had changed. He wasn't in scrubs, but instead wore tight black jeans and a white button-down fitted shirt. The shirt contrasted nicely with his complexion and showcased Jorge's brilliant white teeth and wide smile. He dropped the small duffel and wrapped Anson into a tight squeeze. "I can't believe we have been apart for two days already. I think I've got it bad. I've been daydreaming about you and what you do to me. I had to keep pinching myself to reassure that I wasn't dreaming all of this."
"Unless you're starved, let's have a drink, then hit the bedroom before dinner. Or do I need to feed you before you put out?"
"Oh, I'm starved, but not for food."
Jorge had his now standard Cuba Libre (light on the rum) while Anson had his 16 year old Loch Gillebragh—a single malt made in his ancestral village. They sat together and were in each other's arms within minutes.
"I know the way. Let's do this before I embarrass myself."
