"Anything?" Gordon asked with a concerned look on his face.
"No. Nothing," his new neighbor replied, head down, shoulders hunched over, and, while he couldn't see it just now, Gordon knew he also had a sad look on his face.
Gordon had seen his older neighbor coming out to check his mailbox several times a day, each day, since he had moved in a week before. He was always rugged up as if he was freezing cold, though it was only autumn. He'd check the box until he knew the postman had definitely been and gone. The sad look and hunched shoulders were there each time. This time Gordon had been on his way back inside when the guy emerged.
"By the way, my name's Gordon," he said, extending a hand. "We're neighbors. Good news or bad news? What you are waiting for."
Darren looked up, seeing Gordon for the first time and immediately confused. "Hi, I'm Darren," he replied, gingerly clasping the huge mitt being held out to him. "Oh um, good. It's good. A present from a friend. Well, if it arrives. So you live here?"
Gordon was pleased to see Darren was looking happier already. Amazing what a friendly word could do. Darren was looking up into Gordon's rugged face, and if Gordon could have read Darren's thoughts, he'd have gotten a lot happier and hotter than he already was, because Darren had a sweet submissive look about him, and the years had fallen away now he had that small smile on his face.
Shit, what a monster, was what Darren was thinking. Six and a half feet of bulging muscle, a face like a rocky mountain, and hands that could crush me. God, what a man. He glanced down for a moment to catch Gordon's package and staggered a bit. There was a veritable monster moving inside the giant's loose sweat pants. Pants that sat low down on hard, solid hips and showed heavy ropey veins crawling up out of them like boa constrictors, before the bottom of an old and holey T-shirt hid them. Darren had no idea what to do. This was a superstraight neighborhood and he had to live here for a while at least. And this guy, this Gordon, probably could crush him in one huge hand if he thought he was looking at him the wrong way.
Gordon saw the small stagger Darren made and reached out both hands to steady him, concerned. The hands seemed to wrap around Darren's waist and fingers spread to cover half his rear end. Darren was not short, but he was much shorter than Gordon actually, which Gordon liked. He liked a man's head to be at least level with his collarbone, but he also liked a man to be lean and a bit delicate. The look Darren had about him was just what he fell for. Darren obviously needed to be taken care of. Gordon liked that; it was probably what had caught his eye in the first place.
Darren felt the hands burning into his flesh. His body shivered and the hands firmed their grip, almost lifting him up.
"Are you OK? Here, I better help you back to your apartment," Gordon said and. turning Darren around, moved him to his side and wrapped a big arm about him to steady him. Darren was a mess. He had no idea which way to look. Would this guy turn him into mincemeat if he made any sign he wanted him?
As they got to the apartment door Gordon was getting a pretty strong vibe that Darren was interested in more than a steady hand to guide him. He moved behind him as Darren fumbled with his key in the lock. Then moved in closer to Darren's rear so his hard dick was making contact. Darren gave a moan and almost dropped the door key.
"Here, let me do that," Gordon said croakily, taking the key firmly from Darren, though he was now pretty shaky himself, while pushing up harder against Darren's back, and pushing the key into the lock and turning it. The door opened and the two men almost fell into the apartment.
"You wan' it?" Gordon growled.
