"Come on, Micky," she begged. "Please, just this once."
My roommate and best friend Christie meant well. She was always trying to get me to go out with her.
"You know I hate bars. And straight ones are even worse. It's so loud and smokey."
"It's not that bad. We're going to Tony's. They have live music on Fridays. You need to get out more. You'll never meet anyone if you stay home all the time."
I sighed and rolled my eyes. "I'm gonna meet someone at a straight bar? You're not gonna take 'no' for an answer are you?"
"Nope."
"All right, fine. I'll go."
"I promise you'll have fun, Micky."
Christie's boyfriend Miles came and picked us up and we drove to the bar. We were lucky to grab a table. We ordered beers and talked over the crowd noise.
The bar was pretty typical. They had a small stage set up for the live music and the band was getting ready to go on. I saw from the poster that the band was named Riot. I didn't pay much attention to them.
When the band started playing a cover of "It's not Over" by Daughtry, I looked up. I drew in a sharp breath. I couldn't take my eyes off the bass player. He was the hottest guy I had ever seen. He was so handsome. He had bright blue eyes that I could see even from as far away as I was. His black hair hung to his shoulders, but it wasn't cut like a mullet (thank God). He had long sideburns and a bushy goatee but no moustache. He looked really tall and was built really big, like a linebacker. He was wearing a black t-shirt and tight jeans and black biker boots. Both of his arms were covered in tattoos.
Being short and skinny, I have always been attracted to big and tall guys. This guy was a little rougher than the typical guy I was attracted to, but there was something about him that drew me to him.
"He's hot, isn't he? So dreamy," Christie said into my ear.
"Huh?" I said and turned my attention to her. "Oh, yeah. He is."
I returned my gaze to him. "His eyes are so blue."
"What are you talking about? They're green."
I looked at the other three guys and realized Christie was talking about the lead singer. Yeah, sure, he was good looking, but I wasn't interested in him.
"Are you talking about the big guy?" she asked.
"Yeah."
"Really?" she said as if it was impossible that someone would find him attractive.
"Yeah. He's hot," I said defensively.
"He's kind of fat," she said with a frown. "And he's covered in tattoos. I didn't think you liked that kind of thing."
I shrugged. Maybe not, but I was definitely into him.
My big guy was leaned back, rocking his head to the beat, mouthing the words to the song. He was really into playing and just having a good time. I smiled to myself. He looked up and met my eyes. I drew in a sharp breath as his icy gaze penetrated right through me. He unconsciously licked his lips and gave me a slight smirk of a smile before looking away. The next song they played was an original rock song written by the band. During the next two songs they played, he would occasionally look my way and catch me staring.
After they finished playing their set, they took a break.
"You want another beer, bud?" Miles asked me. I nodded and Miles left to grab another round.
Christie leaned over to me, "So, it looks like you're having a good time."
"Yeah, I actually am."
I got halfway through my second beer when I had to go to the bathroom. I excused myself and hurried to the men's room. It smelled like stale piss, so I hurried up and did my business. I washed my hands and when I went to open the door, it flung open and a large man bumped right into me. It was Riot's bass player. I held my hands up to stop him and when my hands hit his chest, an electric current ran through my arms and traveled up and down my spine. I think I even gasped out loud.
Time seemed to stand still as I gazed up into his blue eyes. He stared at me for what seemed like minutes, but was only a couple of seconds in reality. He made a motion with his head that said he needed to get past me to use the restroom.
I mumbled an apology and stepped out of his way as he ran into the bathroom. As I returned to my seat, I pulled my shirt down in front of my crotch. I had become fully hard when I ran into the giant musician.
They came back out shortly and played another set. My guy stared at me a few times during the set and I smiled shyly and watched him play.
During their second break, Miles and Christie wanted to head home. I would have stayed until they were done playing, but I went home with them.
Once we got back to the apartment, I got ready for bed. I brushed my teeth and took out my contacts and put my glasses on. As I stripped down to my briefs in my bedroom, I looked at myself in the mirror. I wondered if a guy like that could actually be attracted to me. I was only 5'7" and barely 140 pounds. I had brown eyes and black hair. My hair was cut short and was a little spiky. I had a small patch of fine black hair in the middle of my chest that fanned out to my nipples. I also had a thin trail that lead from my belly button to the fine patch of hair over my small, slender circumcised penis. At 4.5 inches erect, I knew I was on the short side of average.
I crawled into bed and sighed when I heard the thumping and moaning coming from Christie's room. I buried one of my pillows over my head.

A week later, Christie asked if I wanted to go to Tony's and I readily agreed. I was really glad to see that Riot was playing live again.
Riot's bass player was wearing tight blue jeans and biker boots again, but tonight he had on a gray sleeveless t-shirt that really showed off his big arms and his tattoos. When he lifted his arms, I could see he had an ample amount of black armpit hair. I wondered how hairy he was and my dick twitched in my pants at the thought.
My shy flirting with the bass player was kicked up a notch this week. He was looking right into my eyes as he was singing background vocals. I never understood why people thought that rock stars were sexy until now.
During their first break, the bartender brought us a round of beers. "This round is on the house," he said.
I wondered if he bought them for us. Tonight when Christie wanted to head home, I told them I wanted to stay and I'd catch a cab home.
Another beer was delivered to me at the start of the next break. I saw the object of my desire walk out onto the stage. He hopped onto the floor and walked directly towards my table and sat down.
"Hey," he said. "I'm CJ."
OH MY GOD. I thought I was going to pass out. He's actually talking to me. His voice was deep and sultry and it sent a shiver down my spine.
"I'm Micky," I managed to squeak out. I quickly wiped my hand on my jeans and then shook his offered hand. It was big and warm and his touch had my body shuddering.
"Micky," he repeated. "You got the drinks?"
