I trudged down the sidewalk, shielding my face from the sandy wind. The wind was bad, but I'd been through much worse. I finally reached the barracks and went straight to my bunk. I threw my jacket and hat into my locker. My bunkmate, Bran (his last name), was passed out on the top, snoring away at 9 in the evening. Probably taking a post-work nap so that he could hit the gym and bar later tonight. We had a bar on base, but a three beer limit so it didn't amount to much except a way to de-stress a bit. My roommate wasn't a bad guy but I didn't particularly care for him too much. He was just kind of ignorant and focused way too much on himself. He was actually a nice guy, just cocky and dumb. The only good thing about him is that he was good to look at.
The good thing about him though was he gave me masturbation fodder. He was tall - somewhere around 6'1" or 6'2". He was built like a fitness model with arms like tree trunks, a wide V-shaped back, and an ass as hard and smooth as polished steel. He walked around without a shirt so I'd seen his abs plenty of times and often dreamed of what he looked like without pants. For now I ignored his loud snoring, grabbed my laundry and headed out again.
The wind was still bad but not bad enough to keep me from going anywhere. I pressed through the sand and made it to the laundry facility - a lone little building on the far side of the base. I put my laundry in and got it going. Lucky for me, only a couple of people were doing laundry at this time of night. Once it was all washing, I headed back across base to the gym.
At the gym I worked up a good sweat. Unlike Bran, I wasn't muscled. I instead focused on some quick reps and a few miles on the treadmill. I was fairly lean and liked myself that way. After my workout I went to the spa and then back to the laundry facility. I flipped my laundry to the dryers and then went back to my barracks. I lay on the bed and got out the book I'd been reading...
I jolted awake. The barrack's lights were out and most of the unit was back and sleeping in bed. The glow from my watch told me it was already 1 in the morning. I'd accidentally fallen asleep. I threw my jacket on and headed to the laundry facility. Just as I suspected, as I got there the building was empty. I began loading my dry laundry into my laundry bag when I heard it... moaning?
It was barely perceptible but I definitely heard someone moaning and grunting. I followed the sound around the back hallway of the laundry facility. The only thing back here was a set of private bathrooms that locked. I listened at the door and heard the moaning louder on the other end of it. It was definitely a male voice, and he wasn't just moaning like he was having sex, he was moaning like he was getting straight jackhammered. I heard the slaps of legs on ass.
My dick hardened instantly. Everyone at the base knew I was queer but no one mentioned it. Part of our "Don't ask, don't tell" policy. We all just pretended we didn't know, but they'd known me long enough and spent enough nights out drinking with me that it wasn't a secret. Unfortunately though, homosexuality was deeply frowned upon and I hadn't been fucked in 236 days. I only knew that because I'd gotten laid the night before I left on deployment and we were on day 236 of our mobilization. Oh, what I wouldn't give to be the guy in that bathroom.
The moaning stopped just as the man let out "Hoooooly Fuuuuck" with a deep vibrato as though his chest convulsed as he spoke. It only took a few seconds before I heard sounds of cleaning then zipping. Shit, they finished up fast. I started to turn to walk back to the laundry area when the door opened and some guy walked past me in a shameful hurry. I didn't recognize him, most likely from one of the other units on base.
"Hey." I heard from behind me. I knew the voice. I turned to see Bran, tall and wide, leaning against the doorframe with his arms crossed. "Listening in?"
"No." I yelled back immediately, half in panic. Before I could move his hand reached out and grabbed my shoulder.
"I know we aren't really friends, but you can't tell anyone about this."For a moment I actually saw the arrogance leave his face, replaced by sincerity and fear. "I know you're comfortable with being open, but I'm not."
