When I returned to college for my last year I had some great expectations for myself, not one of them finding a boyfriend. Throughout the years I had had my fair share of hookups, but never a boyfriend. Commitment was not something I took likely and to be honest I really never connected to someone on an emotional level and that was completely fine with me.
Over the summer, I had made some new friends studying abroad, one of whom was also a gay male. His name was Will. He was a man of short stature, but very muscular. I also couldn't complain about his blue eyes and buzzcut, blonde hair. Although we had swapped blowjobs at one point in the summer, our relationship never went further than great friends.
It was the first week back at college and Will was throwing a party with his roommate at their apartment. After showering and shaving, I decided I would make an appearance, if only for a little while. When I arrived at the party I was pleased to see several of my friends there.
After socializing with my friends for a while, I thought I better find Will to say hi. I weaved my way through the party, I spotted him talking to someone else I recognized. Will was talking to someone who I had had several classes with throughout my college career. His name was Brandon, and he was one of the hottest men I had ever seen in my life. He was the same height as me with blue eyes and short brown hair. His body was sculpted perfectly and his muscles showed through his shirt. I was taken aback to see him there. This was a kid who I had spent many boring class hours staring at from across the room.
Will spotted me and waved me to come over. I walked over trying to keep my cool, but oddly the first one to talk to me was not Will, but Brandon. "Hey! We have had class together before right?" He reached out his hand towards me, closing the distance.
"Yeah, I think so. Chem, right?" I replied while reaching out and shaking his hand. His grip was strong against mine and I tensed up to match it. I tried not to realize the goosebumps on my arms.
"Cool man. How did you hear about this party?" Before I could answer, Will swept in:
"I invited him. He is one of the friends I made this summer that I told you about, remember?" When Will said this I looked at him a little confusingly. Had Will told Brandon about me in particular or just his friends from summer? Had he told him we had hooked up? That would surely ruin any chance I had with Brandon.
"Do you want anything to drink Jake?" Will asked me. I nodded my head to him. If I was at a party I may as well make the most of it.
When Will left, I looked to Brandon and said "Oh. I'm Jake by the way." I reached out my hand to shake his hand again.
"Brandon. Nice to
